1. The old Cincinnati library.
2. Be very afraid: it seems North Korea is ruled by young people. Roman emperors who started young were usually terrible.

The response rates for outbound marketing via call center are apparently abysmal.”
5. Ways in which TPP might count. And here is Krugman on TPP. I would note that the foreign policy considerations of TPP are probably the most important factor in its assessment.
