#usmnt ok, third goal: upon dozens of viewings, I believe the vast majority of strikers would have flopped and tried for the penalty. Balogun fits this team so well because he refused to quit and scored in play.

Truly incredible stuff here. This is such an egregious error for the A section of the NYT (not a typo, genuinely not knowing what NATO stands for) that it should lead every piece on the decline in journalism

L’entreprise américaine Wabtec a livré ce week-end les quatre premières locomotives destinées au projet Simandou. Wabtec a dévoilé non seulement des locomotives américaines de pointe, mais aussi une vision commune du progrès, fondée sur le partenariat.
Ces machines contribueront à porter l’avenir de la Guinée et témoignent du partenariat croissant entre les États-Unis et la Guinée, fondé sur des valeurs partagées : normes élevées, marchés ouverts, investissement dans le capital humain et impact à long terme. #USenGuinée

Well-written story. I would simply suggest that I am helping Africa CDC *thrive* rather than survive. We are in lockstep with the administration's new global health strategy. (and, yes, I am still in the business world too.)

Can America First be Good for Africa?
the Milken Foundation may slander me as an "anonymous mid-level bureaucrat" but you know what? public servants sometimes do very interesting things.

Honored to present flags to Ambassador Troy Fitrell on his retirement from leading State Department Africa Bureau. Ambassador Peter Pham was one of several distinguished guests at ceremony. Ambassador Fitrell did a superb job with many accomplishments. So sorry he is leaving!
