Billionaire Ken Langone told CNBC  he and his wife, Elaine, are helping give medical students free tuition as a way of sharing the American dream.

New York University announced earlier this month that it will offer free tuition for every student attending its medical school. The co-founder of Home Depot and chair of the board of trustees of the NYU Langone Medical Center, and his wife, donated $100 million to help fund the tuition.

Langone, a businessman and philanthropist, said that in the next 15 years there will be a critical shortage of doctors, particularly in primary care, pediatrics and OB-GYN. Langone added these are areas of medicine that don't pay well but are important.


 "This is the greatest country in the world and we are blessed".

This is right back to back with the governor of NY  saying " America was Never Great"

Authorities in Virginia are looking for a bank robber who tried twice and failed before walking off with cash on his third attempt.

The Richmond Times-Dispatch reports police were called to the first attempted robbery  at a SunTrust bank branch. A man had fled emptyhanded after giving a teller demanding cash.  Officers were called to another attempted robbery at a different SunTrust bank about two hours later.  

Shortly after that, a teller at a Wells Fargo bank was passed a note demanding cash, and this time the man got what he wanted. Police say no weapons were reported during the robberies and no one was injured.

Sexting...

A new Gmail feature called Confidential Mode  lets you send self-destructing emails which is available to everyone.

Confidential Mode prevents recipients from forwarding, copying, pasting anything, downloading  or printing it.

People can still snap a picture or take a screen shot of the message.

The email will automatically delete itself after your predetermined self-destruction time period ends.  The clock starts right when you send it, not when they open it.

So, for young people, any sexting would disappear. Let us see
