What? Go old skool and get some of the original "Beats by Dre by Monster" units, back when the first few years ALL the Beats products were designed-and-built by Monster. Then you can have Monster on your Monster, yo!
Harman is a big player in the audio industry (an industry I work in). The industry as a whole is a solid $90 billion annually - and Harman is one of the big boys in that market. It's a solid acquisition for a massive consumer electronics conglomerate who wants to further integrate your entire life (home, mobile, auto, etc.).
With increased National Doppler radar coverage, increasing population, and greater attention to tornado reporting, there has been an increase in the number of tornado reports over the past several decades. This can create a misleading appearance of an increasing trend in tornado frequency.
Tornado season is March through November, with the VAST majority of tornadoes occuring in May through August. We're in the last 2 weeks of a ~36 week season, so we're not "half way" through, we're 95% of the way through.
The Earth may be warming, but we should take any claimed models or predicted outcomes with a HUGE block of salt, especially since climate scientists claimed that higher temperatures lead to more tornadoes and other extreme weather events. The facts show that the trend for tornadoes and hurricanes are both falling...
Uh, that's been Trump's position for nearly a year. But hey, I guess Obama has to crow about something good coming of this, so taking credit for a position staked out 10 months ago works!
My understanding was that Secretaries are typically chosen to reflect the beliefs of the President, so while you may have a very experienced Treasury Secretary, he would be coming to his job based upon the beliefs/desires of the President. If that President doesn't really get the realities of economics and business (what the real world teaches, not just textbooks and professors), then you get a SecTreas who parrots out those beliefs by their actions.
We finally have a President who understands business and the way businesses work and business leaders think. First time in generations. Someone who can sew what's being attempted and cut them off at the pass. Business has now met it's match, it's no longer up against career political lawyers...
On the contrary, Russia's actions have proven they are INCREDIBLY rational. They waited until the US (the only power that could legitimately threaten them) was distracted before taking a small step (Crimea). After seeing how that shook out (US did nothing but wag a finger), they moved to the next step. Same result. You might not agree (nor do I) with their goals, but the way they are moving forward is incredibly rational, well-planned, and measured.
Hey now, don't sell Hillary short! She also sold out to the Russians for $100 million, so she's already proven she's for sale to the Russians AND to Goldman Sachs!
A mole you say? That may be. On the other hand, we had outright buying of the other candidate to the tune of $100+ million dollars. I guess you'd prefer an out-and-out bought President, rather than one whom had significantly less contact with Russia than the bought one, and who has zero documented ties to Russia... Take the guaranteed, documented criminal rather than the one who you think might have done something wrong?
The labor force participation rate factors in demographics. It is a measure of the percentage of eligible workers versus the population as a whole. So as the population goes up and down, with "full employment" the labor force participation rate would hold steady. It drops when unemployment goes up.
You are talking about workers in the labor force which WILL fluctuate with population - but that's not the measure to look at, nor the measure that I linked. Labor force participation RATE climbed from the 70s to the 90s, leveled off for most of the 2000s, then started falling. Jobs disappeared, they did not come back - and after a certain amount of time, those still unemployed were "dropped" from the lists of unemployed so the unemployment rate could be cooked. The labor force participation rate doesn't lie...
Curiously enough, building a Lightning-to-USB C cable is explicitly forbidden in the Apple Accessory Spec (at least up through R26, the last I have, from August 2016). You cannot make such a cable, Apple will not allow it. So - you have one LEGIT source of such cables: Apple. Those clones on Amazon use grey-market MFi chips - better hope they're not reported as grey-market, because use of them can be deactivated via software, leaving you unable to charge.
No, the Macbook has only USB-C and an analog audio jack. The iPhone 7 has Lightning and no analog audio jack. That way you can ensure that you cannot use any common set of headphones without at least one adapter/dongle in the mix.
More than fractal complexity, I would say it would be perimeter-to-area. A long and skinny rectangle has low fractal complexity but a very high perimeter-to-area ratio. Make districts as small and compact as possible. But then we're told that is racist, so...
Blame the States who allocate their electors as "winner takes all". Doing winner-by-district (like Maine and Nebraska) would go a long way towards strengthening 3rd parties. You at least get split electors like Maine, where each district can elect who bests represents their desires.
Other than your failure about Democracy versus Republic, why should there be ANY issues at all about electorcal district lines? Make each electoral district have as small a perimeter as possible. Do not allow districts like this to exist - they are an abomination to the whole concept of districts in the first place.

Close to a quarter of a billion by 2013. Probably considerably more by now...
From the article I referenced:

Emphasis added. You're welcome.

The annual number of tornadoes and the number of strong tornadoes are both trending down. The data doesn't lie.

You sure that's not a false flag operation? What with DNC operatives (Creamer and Koval) on tape saying they arrange just such things?

Judging from what they look like (as well as the looks of the offspring), he gets a great return on his purchase!

Dawg, I heard you like dongles, so I made a dongle for your dongle!
Gotta carry two different cables to charge them though...
