1. Hillary Clinton:

   I'm impressed with them, and I'm going to do everything I can to reach out and explain why good ideas on paper are important, but you've got to be able to translate that into action, here's what I want young people to know: They don't have to be for me. I'm going to be for them.

2. Olivier Jankovec:

   The trend of decreasing freight traffic is hard to ignore. It reflects weakening economic data and contraction forces at play, not just in Europe but around the world. These will ultimately translate into lower passenger demand, adding to that, volatile oil prices, labour cost pressures and more consolidation should also lead airlines to be more cautious with capacity expansion. So pressures on passenger traffic are likely to come both from the demand and supply sides in 2019.

And sharp dollar declines are much more likely to translate themselves into inflation than they were historically.

In this time, when obesity is threatening, don't let your child get fat. And since when did that translate into a toddler having to be so concerned about putting on weight ? That to me is just taking it too far.
