airlines like Spirit and Frontier continue to play a role in moderating
ticket costs.

The Upshot
By CLAIRE CAIN MILLER | Aug 31st 2017
The Trump administration has reversed an Obama-era rule that would
have required companies to be more transparent about pay. But would it
have helped?
"There is little data on whether forcing companies to disclose pay makes
it more equitable, mostly because the pay of individual workers or
companies is generally kept secret. The Bureau of Labor Statistics
surveys companies about compensation, but publishes only
aggregate, anonymous data.
Researchers who have studied the few instances in which companies have
publicly disclosed individual salaries say it is not enough to close pay
gaps, nor is it essential —
some companies have closed them on their
own, without publicly reporting pay information."
Reporting would help.

Noomi Rapace plays an undercover C.I.A. agent in a film that serves up clichés with its suspense.
Call it a production failure.
The writer needed to think more about the problem.
This is a police problem treated as an intelligence failure.
Systems analysis is not visually dramatic.

Ms. Pirici, who lives and works in Bucharest and Berlin, will
create a moving barrier of performers at the top of Manhattan’s verdant
pedestrian highway.
I doubt it will have the desired effect.
The necessary act of abstraction is too far from the concerns of the interacting public.
Try a film about limits.

Subjecting the Dreamers to deportation is not actually consistent with American legal values.

Paul Lynch’s novel “Grace” asks timeless questions about suffering
and survival through the story of a sister and brother in the Irish
famine.
I do not feel much need to know.
The tale must be told.
Like the Holocaust I have heard enough of it.
Others have not.

Footage of the episode showed an extended confrontation between
the nurse and a police officer during which she screamed, “Somebody help

Jeff L. Payne made a huge mistake.
He could stay with his charge and call for a warrant.

The judge made his ruling after a pretrial hearing, dismissing a number of felony charges. Lesser charges were left intact.
