Vice President Pence in Panama

Vice President Pence in Panama

The Vice President said: the Panama Canal expansion has resulted in billions of dollars of investment in the United States, creating god-payng jobs for our people in manufacturing and transportation and agriculture, and ports across America are growing. In President Donald Trump, I think, the United States once again have a President whose vision, energy, and can-do spirit is reminiscent of President Teddy Roosevelt. We have a President who understands, in his words, “A nation is only living as long as it is striving.” I believe that one of the greatest opportunities before us is to build on the legacy of trade that made the last 100 years so historic for this Hemisphere. The Panama Canal is an enduring testament to the power of commerce to transform fortunes and shape the futures of nations. Published on Aug. 21, 2017 by The White House

Do you like the classic or the innovative Panettone?

It is a Italian Christmas speciality. Until recently Milan’s Christmas speciality seemed to be on the wane. The shake-up started during Expo and since then efforts have been made to reinvent the product. Some of the most interesting ideas drew on local specialities, and even the Slow Food movement got in on the act. There was a Sardinian version flavoured with myrtle, beer and pompia (a variety of lemon native to Sardinia), while Sicilian panettone was flavoured with manna, a tree-bark sap.

The trip Tuesday to Yuma came as Trump has struggled to obtain congressional approval to fund his long-promised additions to the border wall, which already exists in some parts of the U.S. Southwest. While in Yuma, he toured a U.S. Customs and Border Protection facility to see equipment used for surveillance and detection of border crossings, and held a closed-door briefing with local staff. Early Tuesday, officials from the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees border protection and immigration enforcement, highlighted Yuma’s success in reducing the number of crossings in recent years. video published by The White House on Aug. 23, 2017

Sarah Jessica Parker transforms from Fashion Week star to doting mother.

Sarah Jessica Parker is a perennial favourite at Fashion Week events. The mother of three was back on stroller duty today, just hours after appearing on the red carpet. The 47-year-old actress stepped out with her three-year-old twin daughters in Manhattan, looking fashionably practical in a purple long-sleeved top with mesh shoulders and olive green skinny jeans. The Sex and the City star covered her eyes with large dark shades as she pushed daughters Marion and Tabitha along in a stroller. Marion relaxed in the stroller wearing a blue-and-white check dress and pink sandals, a her sister Tabitha stood on the stroller chariot-style, wearing a bright pink dress and yellow sandals.
