News from the most recent community re-organized by Obama

Libya!
Political chaos in Libya has allowed the Islamic State to expand across the northern coast of the oil-rich North African country, which is just across the Mediterranean from Italy and has also become a major conduit for African migrants heading to Europe. IS controls the central city of Sirte and a number of oil installations.



Adding to the concern in Washington and Europe is evidence that the number of Islamic State fighters in Libya is increasing — now believed to be about 5,000 — even as the group's numbers in Syria and Iraq are shrinking.
Heckuva job, Barry!

Our man Trent Digmore does Frontier a solid


Trent Digmore It's pretty clear that desk agents in Las Vegas are stealing from the company based on an interaction my houseguest had today. That is all.

Frontier Airlines We appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Please email us details so we can share this with the management team. Stealing is never okay. http://spr.ly/6187BbDQB

Contact Frontier today. Talk to an agent to book a low fare or get information about all your flying needs.

Trent Digmore If you don't think stealing is okay, you should check out your Yelp reviews sometime.

Anyway, figure out what charges are discretionary on the gate agent's part, and why the cost might suddenly double when the customer produces a credit card instead of cash. Good luck!

Frontier Airlines No charges are discretionary....the fees are posted on our website, if not paid, the airport will collect them at the airport. Since it was your "houseguest" that flew with us, please share my request to email us with them so we can add it to our email to the station manager for further investigation. We don't accept cash and if fees are paid at the gate instead of online, they're more and increase more at the gate. ^KH

Trent Digmore You may not accept cash, but you have gate agents who do. After the treatment my friend encountered, he has little interest in helping you guys, but I thought I'd do the right thing and bring it to your attention.

I'm curious about the quotation marks you put around "houseguest." Do these not exist in your part of the country?

Frontier Airlines Just quoting your words. Thanks for letting us know. Your information is very vague, but has been shared with the management team in LAS. ^KH

p.s. And for the record, I'm not having sex with my houseguest if that's what you were implying.

Jose Canseco gets NIRP'd

Leading monetary scholar Jose Canseco opined this morning on Twitter:


... which makes a lot of sense.  And, yes, "loanee" is a word.  Look it up.

Bloomberg TV reporter Joseph Weisenthal (who?) wanted some audience, so he asked Canseco to come on his show.



Ah-ha, Jose! And there is where Weisenthal has you! As you observed this morning, time is now negative money! Do the show!

QE is like herpes

Financial Times:
It is almost like having an illness that is not life threatening but can never be cured. It will not kill us, but we will have to live with it until we die.



Happy Super Tuesday!
