Great concise piece by Zach Beauchamp for Vox: The point, then, is that European elections are increasingly no longer about principally European concerns like the size of welfare states. They are about issues that affect the broader stability of Europe and the global order — which America has a huge stake in. As a result, center-left politicians like Obama feel entitled, maybe even obligated, to involve themselves. www.facebook.com/EmmanuelM… [≠]Vlog 033: An Opera Singer

It’s taken me some time to find a decent enough internet connection to upload this new vlog. After a busy week catching up on work, I spent the weekend exploring other areas of Shanghai! youtu.be/xOFY14iWW…Shanghainese Outings
Thursday, April 20, 2017
After a busy beginning of the week, I’ve finally gone out this tonight, for drinks with friends. Last week, I caught up with my friend Lincha whom I’d met 6 years ago in San Francisco. She’s now in Shanghai and I got to meet up with her and her boyfriend Matt. We also met some other people, local Shanghainese as well as expats. Then, after a busy week for everyone, We went out for dinner in a Dim Sum place, and then to a local expat bar held by Louis, a New Yorker who’s been in SGH for 16 years.Vlog 032: Exploring Shanghai

The debate also included the three other main contenders — the Socialist Benoît Hamon, the Republicans’ François Fillon, and the far-left candidate Jean-Luc Mélenchon — but it was the fight between Mr. Macron and Ms. Le Pen that riveted attention.
Here are my initial reactions from this debate…

Amsterdam Weekend Getaway
Monday, March 20, 2017
Currently listening to: Drake’s freshly released "More Life" album/playlist/project. I’m waiting at the airport, on my way home after spending the weekend with S. I always have a great time in this city, but the real reason behind the trip was to see her again, and be able to spend some quality time together. In all honesty, we were just looking for a good place to meet, in Europe, and The Netherlands happened to be a cheap and direct flight for both of us.My Brother's Graduation
Sunday, March 12, 2017
This week-end, I was in Lyon to celebrate my little brother’s graduation. We’re here with the family and actually went to a wonderful Michelin-star restaurant, which was booked last minute, with views overlooking the city. And it literally turned out to be the best restaurant I’ve ever been too and best meal I’ve ever had. And did I mention this was my vegetarian set menu?!

Something I’ve been saying to a few close friends and family members: given the current American Government, I’m going to avoid traveling to the US because I feel that I’m just vocal enough to be rejected at the border. Here’s the short version of what I’m about to say: Immigrants and visitors to the US—along with anyone participating in protests or visible resistance to the current administration—are the targets of intrusive governmental surveillance, including surveillance of their social networks."It’s Not The Foreigners Who Are Plotting Here"

White America… Since January 2015, the FBI has also arrested more anti-immigrant American citizens plotting violent attacks on Muslims within the U.S. than it has refugees, or former refugees, from any banned country. [≠]Privacy as a Feature
Wednesday, March 8, 2017
Consumer Reports will now include privacy as an important factor into how they rate new products. A great news in these troubled times. Simple and to the point: When consumers vote with their wallets and their clicks, we’ve seen that companies pay attention. We think companies will strive to out-do their competitors when it comes to privacy, security, and other consumer rights. The ones that do a better job will gain more customers.Vlog 028: A Weekend in Turin, Italy

A reduction in working hours generally correlates with marked reductions in energy consumption [...] In fact, if Americans simply followed European levels of working hours, for example, they would see an estimated 20% reduction in energy use—and hence in carbon emissions.
