A Picture-Perfect Wedding in the Big Easy
What happens in New Orleans stays there after the wedding of the photographers Danielle Levitt and Harry Eelman. But there will be photos. Lots of them.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Po%27_boy
Sooner is better. As soon as you can is best.

U.S.
House Intelligence Committee Releases Findings on Russian Election Interference
The committee’s investigation devolved into partisan bickering as Democrats accused the Republicans leading the panel of ignoring crucial evidence and obvious leads.https://static01.nyt.com/files/2018/us/politics/20180427%20Intelligence%20Committee%20Report.pdf?authuser=1
Any document as redacted as this one is junk.
There is not enough left of it to call it fiction.
I am left with many more questions than answers.
Most of those answers are whitewash.

Is My Not-So-Smart House Watching Me?
Smart-house technology has made it easier to turn on the lights and set the thermostat, but sometimes objects go rogue.Anything that connects to the internet reports remotely.
Anything that connects to the internet can be hacked.
All remote controlled devices do not connect to the internet.
The smart devices are watching you or your phone.

Is Alkaline Water Really Better for You?
What’s behind the claims that alkaline water will “energize” and “detoxify” the body and lead to “superior hydration”?It can be another placebo.
There is no measured physical benefit.

Could You Be Sued as a Co-op Board Member?
Co-op living can be filled with strife and disagreement, leading to lawsuits, but can individual board members be held liable?There is a small risk. Insurance is cheap.
Dogs do not win.

Books
How James Comey Found Mistakes in His Manuscript
“Each of my five kids and two sons-in-law was assigned a portion to copy edit. I offered $20 for each typo.”Spelling checkers work.
There was not enough prize money to make the reading worthwhile. Homonyms are the problem along with punctuation, tense and meaning.

Opinion
The White Rebellion
Trump’s ability to project the petrifying fear young white men feel is a large part of the reason he is president today.Trump is a racist. Racists were enough to fill the Republican margin of victory.
The racists never opposed Trump.
The converts to Trump made the difference.
The converts keep me nervous.
