Can the ‘Strong’ US Economy Survive Until 2020?


President Trump and the Federal Reserve — the nation’s top economic policymakers — believe the U.S. economy is strong and they want to keep it humming. If the economy grows to 2020 without a stumble, it would be the longest expansion in U.S. history by far.

Exclusive – Trump and Iran: Regime Change or Change of Behavior

Fishing, New Hobby in Paris Streets


While most anglers head out to rural rivers and lakes, a new breed of fishing fan has found a retreat in the built-up waterways of the French capital. Fred Miessner stands near a busy road in Paris, his mind miles away from the urban sprawl as he casts his fishing line into the Saint-Martin canal.

“Street fishing” enthusiasts carry minimal kit, such as a rod, a box of lures, and take up their position on bridges and pavements.

A few hours along the canal path produces a few small pike and perch. https://ift.tt/1p5TKH4 http://bit.ly/2DOz6Vx
