The Real Rudy Giuliani A Profile

America’s struggle was far from over, Giuliani warned the crowd. The terrorists who tested the nation that morning were still plotting to destroy its spirit. He wouldn’t even use the word “if” to talk about future attacks: “I think probably the way I have to say it is, when we’re attacked. That’s the only way we’re going to be safe.” The crowd remained silent. “We’re going to be in this war for quite some time,” Giuliani concluded....

The Reason Behind Mccree S Overwatch Name Change

Why Is McCree’s Name Changing? McCree is a sharpshooting cowboy—styled after famous spaghetti western gunslingers—who has been a key part of Overwatch’s roster since it debuted back in 2016. Alongside 20 other launch heroes, he has always been an iconic part of the online game. Yet his inclusion has recently become problematic due to his association with a certain Blizzard employee. For context, the character was originally named after Jesse McCree—a level designer at the studio—who was let go from the company earlier this month....

Who is Ed Hyman, and why should anyone care what he thinks?

His optimism is widely shared by other economic gurus, too. “We’ve had glimmers of recovery for a year,” says Stephen Roach of Morgan Stanley, the blue-chip Wall Street investment firm, “but this time it looks like it’s for real....

The Return Of Economic Nationalism Opinion

If these libertarian fantasies failed to inspire you, you’re not alone. Many of us who consider ourselves to be deeply conservative were never moved by the “leave us alone” agenda. We aspired to national greatness—not small government. We longed to lift up our fellow Americans, not withdraw from them. And for our sins, we were ostracized. In the Republican schoolyard, being called a “squish” or a “RINO” made you unpopular, indeed....

The Right Ipad For Your Budget

The Scare Spreads East

It was too late. Even the animal form of the scourge, bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), has not yet surfaced in Asia. But the fear has. Consumers are avoiding beef. Government regulators are besieged with worried calls. Thai farmers are outraged. This month Malaysia banned all imports of Thai beef. “We don’t want to take any chances,” editorialized Malaysia’s New Straits Times. No one else in Asia does, either. Vietnam last week ordered that all dairy imports from the EU be certified by the exporting country to be free of mad-cow disease....

Just a friendly tip: don’t go there. It’s hard to imagine a worse place than North Korea to be in the IT business. Let Great Leader Kim Jong Il enthuse all he wants about the prospects for e-trade development. Business people who have visited the place can only shake their heads. North Korea scarcely has a communications infrastructure worthy of the name. There’s one phone line for every 20 or so inhabitants....

The Star Wars Sequel Trilogy Wasted Its Most Interesting New Character

Instead of trying to pull the heartstrings of fans with the deaths of their most beloved characters, Disney should have doubled down and committed to the new characters they created. Take Finn for example. The premise of a stormtrooper turned Jedi in training was set up at the start of the trilogy. Instead, he ended up playing a role of minimal importance in the next two movies, going on lackluster side quests and ultimately hesitating to even tell Rey about how he feels connected to her in the force....
