The many aspects of the scandal are still unfolding."Boeing's software update appears to add yet another layer of safety to the operation of the MAX aircraft," Southwest's certificate chief pilot, Bob Waltz, said."With the software enhancements, we now have several layers of protection," American Airlines Captain Roddy Guthrie, among the 200 airline customers and others who spent the day at Boeing getting details, told reporters.Members of the Allied Pilots Association, which represents pilots of American Airlines Group Inc, the largest US carrier, were among the 200 airline customers and others who spent the day at Boeing getting details.These pilots are piling on pressure on the FAA, while chanting, “the certification process should not be rushed.”United Airlines vice president Michael Quiello said the airline was optimistic about the software update, but was counting on the FAA to certify the change.Executives with US airlines welcomed Boeing's moves, but want US regulators to sign off on the upgrade.Ethiopian Airlines crash recording reveals panic during last momentsAmerican airline executives are putting pressure on the FAA.▲That’s a lot of lost revenue sitting out there: Southwest Airlines Boeing 737 MAX aircraft are grounded in Southern CaliforniaThe Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) said it had not reviewed or certified the software upgrade yet.The FAA has agreed to significantly improve its oversight of organizations performing certifications on its behalf by July.So what do you conclude if the FAA certifies the reworked system before July 2019?

Joni has always been a bit weird and prickly. She went further than calling him a plagiarist in the interview, what she really said was "Bob is not authentic at all. He’s a plagiarist, and his name and voice are fake. Everything about Bob is a deception. We are like night and day, he and I"Joni has never really liked Bob much which most people have put down to professional jealousy. There have been a lot of attempts to present her as The Female Dylan which understandably annoys her as she likes to be considered an artist in her own right (and who could blame her). She's never really liked him even though he gave her a spot on the Rolling Thunder Revue tour which helped to boost her career. Bob and Van Morrison shared a bill for a short tour in 1998 and apparently the three didn't get along at all.The most telling quote Joni gave about Bob comes after they performed together in 1994 "On the third night they stuck Bob at the mic with me and that’s the one that went out on tape. And if you look closely at it, you can see the little brat, he’s up in my face — and he never brushes his teeth, so his breath was like… right in my face — and he’s mouthing the words at me like a prompter, and he’s pushing me off the mic. lt’s like he’s basically dipping my pigtail in ink."The plagarism quote comes at a time when Joni revived her recording career after an effective retirement. Bob had released a string of albums which were incredibly well received and were huge sellers. Several of them were on Rolling Stone magazines list of the 500 best albums of all time. Suddenly Bob wasn't just a nostalgia act he was considered relevant to the times and his knew albums were eagerly anticipated and devoured. MItchell's return to recording was greeted well but didn't recieve the glowing tributes Bob did. It appears she wanted some of the adulation Bob enjoyed as not just an elder statesman but as a contemporary recording artist as well and was annoyed she didn't get it.As Andy Lohr has said, Bob borrows phrases and expressions from artists he's admired and things he's been reading. He's always done it and has always been open about it. Sometimes he quotes things that are more obscure but frequently his reference points are easier to spot. Michael Gray's book Song and Dance Man went to pains to document the references Dylan has included from the Old and New Testament long before his born again albums. Quite why this should annoy Ms Mitchell who comes from the same folk tradition Bob does is a bit of a mystery.Joni and Bob are both considered fairly difficult people to get along with but Bob has always played his cards close to his chest and doesn't like talking about other people in derogatory terms. Mitchell however has always been a fairly bitter person and more than happy to vent.Finally there are those who believe Joni's dislike of Bob stretches way back to the seventies. Check out this video from The Band's Last Waltz. Everyone joins the group and Dylan onstage for a final rendition of I shall Be Released. It's clear a great time is being had by all. Neil Young (who has never held back in his admiration of Dylan) is clearly loving being onstage with Bob but keep your eyes on Joni who is standing next to him. She never cracks a smile and looks bored and annoyed throughout.

Great question. Here's a list of books I've come across that fit this bill in my own idiosyncratic areas of interest:International conflictMan, the State, and War by Kenneth WaltzTheory of International Politics by Kenneth Waltz. Waltz is arguably the greatest mind in international relations in our lifetime. These are two amazing books about how international relations really work. Absolutely required reading.History of the Peloponnesian War by Thucydides. Other than Waltz, the other book to read.The Gathering Storm: first volume of Winston Churchill's WWII memoirs. This book is awesome.Non-US culturesBorn Red: A Chronicle of the Cultural Revolution. Wow this is an amazingly insightful story of the Cultural Revolution, told first hand.From Beirut to Jerusalem by Tom Friedman: This book is a little out of date now, but an incredible overview of Middle East history and cultural conflicts. One of my favorite 100 books.American politicsPresidential Power by Richard Neustadt. Amazing overview of White House politics.Congress: The Electoral Connection by David Mayhew.Congress and The Bureaucracy by Douglas Arnold.The Brethren by Bob Woodward. Great Supreme Court overview.Federalist Papers. Very readable (surprisingly). Great recap of all the big issues behind the making of the U.S. Constitution.Game theory and economicsStrategy of Conflict by Thomas Schelling. My favorite overview of game theory. Has lots of practical examples.A Course in Microeconomic Theory by David Kreps. Not easy for non-economists, but good.OtherReal and Functional Analysis by Serge Lang. If you're trying to understand analysis, this is pretty great.A First Course in Probability by Sheldon Ross.Stickney and Weil: Financial Accounting. Really lucid overview of accounting. You can teach yourself with this book.Most of these topics (Middle East politics, Cultural Revolution, real analysis, accounting) are about fields/topics which are really difficult to grasp as a beginner. Each of these books put a giant smile on my face re: illuminating a black box that I cared about.
