He may be gone, but Al Jarreau's music lives on. On Grammy night, Grammy-winning jazz singer is dead just days after he retired from touring due to exhaustion.

It's not going to be the happiest Valentines with the loss of Al Jarreau.

Handshakes and Hugs

President Donald Trump, fresh off patching up his ties with China, reassured Japan's leader that the US will defend them. These pronouncements is another shift toward a mainstream Trump stance on foreign policy toward Asia. His new committed to Japan security is another change from previous campaign rhetoric. http://a.msn.com/01/en-us/AAmPrUW?ocid=st

Trump welcomed Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe with a brotherly hug and warm words of admiration. He dropped previously hard-charging rhetoric during a summit. http://cnn.it/2lxMsuS

Comprehend... فهمیدن

‘Trust me, I'm like a smart person’ US President Donald J. Trump boasts he can 'comprehend very well, better than I think almost anybody' and here is the point. "The Point" https://youtu.be/hHgj1uQ5FH8

Comprehend through its Latin etymology, from comprehendere, cum: with + prehendere: to grab also has a spatial connotation, like encompass, by which one's thought surrounds a particular topic, like the hand an object, seeing all aspects and limits of a concept, but indeed, without maybe peeking inside like with true understanding.

The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Weather Advisory until 12:00 PM on Sunday, 2/12. Freezing rain and an inch of snow are expected with up to a few hundredths of an inch of ice.

New Yorkers are advised to exercise caution when driving, walking, or biking, and allow for additional travel time as roads may be slippery. Residents should also check on their neighbors, friends, and relatives, especially the elderly and those with disabilities, and access and functional needs during periods of extreme cold.

SUCCESSFUL?

For someone who claims to have never been wrong about anything and to always be a winner, actions speak louder than words and are showing the world otherwise.

Success does not come from practicing discrimination against a group of people, or lying and cheating others out of their hard work. It comes from hard work determination and sacrifice. Same meaning in any language... Successful, exitoso, 成功, ناجح ...etc.

Three strikes... 3-0. The 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals unanimously refused to restore President Trump’s travel ban. The judges said the Trump administration had failed to justify putting the order into effect while the courts consider its lawfulness.

Supreme Court Of The United States?
US District Court for a trial?

Springlike To Snowzila

The Tri-State of confusion as the entire NY, NJ and CT region went from sixties Springlike temperatures to Snowzilla overnight. And there are still fools who still question climate change.

We thought about it this morning and although Make Winter Great Again is a possibility, we don't kid around and it doesn’t make for a catchy name or a good hashtag. So it's #Snowzilla!

This one is a winter wonderland... A Godzilla-sized winter storm and we're snowed kidding.

Powerful Winter Storm Today... WINTER Storm Warning REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL TONITE

Snow accumulations: 10 to 14 inches.
