Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi’s memo on London ban: ‘There is a high cost to a bad reputation’
“Going forward, it’s critical that we act with integrity in everything we do.”

Uber’s new CEO Dara Khosrowshahi is just a month into his new job and is already battling local regulators.

“It’s critical that we act with integrity in everything we do, and learn how to be a better partner to every city we operate in,” he wrote. “That doesn’t mean abandoning our principles — we will vigorously appeal TfL’s decision — but rather building trust through our actions and our behavior. In doing so, we will show that Uber is not just a really great product, but a really great company that is meaningfully contributing to society, beyond its business and its bottom line.”

It does matter who says the words…. By Dr Firouz Naderi

In his speech to the UN, Donald Trump READ a passage on the plight of the Iranian people that could have been written by many of us who have been fiercely critical of the occupation of the Iran by the IRI. But …. does anyone really believe that this unprincipled man cares about the people of Iran? This man who puts sanctions in place that primarily hurt the Iranian people, slaps travel ban that impedes Iranian students, grandmothers, and ordinary Iranian citizens from coming to the US, arms Saudi Arabia, and Netanyahu to the teeth who are itching to bomb Iran, is he now the champion of Iranian people? No thank you. Friends like this we do not need.

You do not liberate your country by turning it into another Syria, Iraq or Afghanistan. You do not shoot yourself in the head to get rid of your cancer. You do not burn down your house to get rid of the people who have invaded your home and taken your family hostage. The change needs to come from within not from Beverly Hills, South of France, or the Iranian “patriot” who types fiery articles on his laptop from the safety of his home in suburban London….. or a US President who is tearing his own country apart.
The change needs to come from within – with the right help from the outside. Allow Iranian economy to grow on the shoulders of the young educated Iranian entrepreneurs. Open up the banking system and allow Iran out of isolation. Will the corrupt politicians, Sepah and the regime benefit also? Yes. But the people will benefit more and will in time turn this ship tanker around.

NFL players staged an unprecedented wave of protest on Sunday, beginning at Wembley Stadium in London, as Donald Trump maintained his attack on players who #kneel in protest against the national anthem.
It was a climactic day for a movement that began with a single backup quarterback #kneeling before a pre-season game 13 months ago and has since prompted a nation to wrestle with questions of free speech and racial justice.
Colin Kaepernick, then with the San Francisco 49ers, kneeled in an attempt to provoke debate over race and police brutality. He is now without a team but active players have followed his example. This weekend, the protest spilled into baseball: the Oakland A’s catcher Bruce Maxwell kneeled during the anthem before a game against the Texas Rangers.

Dr Firouz Naderi, My Take on Trump’s Iran Policy Announcement

On Friday Trump said certain things that were music to the ears of Iranians – both inside the country and within the diaspora. He said the Regime is spending Iran’s riches on various groups fighting in the middle east rather than on its own people. And, that the Regime has oppressed Iran’s noble nation by suppressing people’s freedom. I agree with him.

What I despise is his dishonesty. The man who has no empathy for people of Puerto Rico, who are American citizens, cares NOT about the people of Iran. His attempt to dismantle the nuclear agreement is motivated by a) his obsession to eviscerate anything that Obama has accomplished, b) throwing red meat to his ignorant redneck base, and c) kowtow to Saudi Arabia and Netanyahu. It has nothing to do with protecting America’s interest and security since all his top generals have counseled him against pulling out of this agreement. Further, the proposed additional sanctions he wants to levy will not hurt the “sepah” who will find a way around them but will further squeeze the common people.

Finally, the man who touts his respect for the Iranian nation, history, and culture would do best to call the Persian Gulf by its proper name rather than what appeases his Arabian bankers.

Reaching the end of a job interview, the Human Resources Person asked a young Engineer fresh out of MIT, "And what starting salary were you looking for?"
The Engineer said, "In the neighborhood of $125,000 a year, depending on the benefits package."

The interviewer said, "Well, what would you say to a package of 5 weeks vacation, 14 paid holidays, full medical and dental, a company matching retirement fund for 50% of your salary, and a company car leased every 2 years-say, a red Corvette?"
The Engineer sat up straight and said, "Wow! Are you kidding?"
And the interviewer replied, "Yeah, but you started it"

3 ways the Reformation changed the world

Trump's claim to have come up with the term 'fake news' is fake news, Merriam-Webster dictionary says

If Trump was claiming he'd coined the word “fake,” he'd be even more wrong. According to Merriam-Webster, the word first appeared in English in the 15th century. “Fake news” doesn't have its own entry in the Merriam-Webster dictionary, and probably won't in the near future.

“The reason ‘fake news’ is unlikely to be entered in our dictionary anytime soon is that it is a self-explanatory compound noun — a combination of two distinct words, both well known, which when used in combination yield an easily understood meaning,” Merriam-Webster explained.

But, as CNN points out, other dictionaries have decided the term warrants an entry of its own. Dictionary.com announced last month that it will add the phrase with this definition: “false news stories, often of a sensational nature, created to be widely shared online for the purpose of generating ad revenue via web traffic or discrediting a public figure, political movement, company, etc.”

And the Cambridge English Dictionary already has the term on its website, with the definition “false stories that appear to be news, spread on the internet or using other media, usually created to influence political views or as a joke.”

#WRITING TIPS!?🙈🙈🙈🙊🙊🙊🙊
Do not put statements in the negative form.
And don't start sentences with a conjunction.
If you reread your work, you will find on rereading that a great deal of repetition can be avoided by rereading and editing.
Never use a long word when a diminutive one will do.
Unqualified superlatives are the worst of all.
If any word is improper at the end of a sentence, a linking verb is.
Avoid trendy locutions that sound flaky.
Never, ever use repetitive redundancies.
Also, avoid awkward or affected alliteration.
Last, but not least, avoid cliche's like the plague.
