I just spotted this ring at auction. I collect antique jewelry & I adore these "lover's eye" pieces.

In the late 18th century, people were desperate to see & be seen. Only there were social strictures that got in the way of things like casual conversation between the sexes. It became fashionable for lovers to give a jewel, with a portrait of their eye. Previously, they'd given one another jewelry items featuring full portraits. In practice, people would clutch these tokens to their hearts, gaze at them & thus see their lover's face before them.

There are 2003 signatories (almost 900 more signatures since it was published on Saturday and since my initial analysis) to the DOJ Alumni letter calling for Barr to step down. I have undertaken a fresh analysis of these impressive men and women.
medium.com/@dojalumni/doj… For the signatories, the average tenure at DOJ was 12.8 years, with the median being 8 years. 513 of them (26%) had 20 or more years of experience. 221 (11%) had 30 or more yrs. And an astonishing 20 signatories had +40 years at DOJ.

The 1143 DOJ alumni who were signatories to the @ProtctDemocracy letter condemning Trump and Barr related to the Roger Stone sentencing caught my eye, so I downloaded the .csv file and got to work - my MS in Statistics needed a workout.
medium.com/@dojalumni/doj… The DOJ Rulebook for lawyers states:
“the rule of law depends on the evenhanded administration of justice”; its legal decisions “must be impartial and insulated from political influence”; and that DOJ's prosecutorial powers must be “exercised free from partisan consideration.”

The 650 (and counting) federal prosecutors who were signatories to the letter saying Trump would have been prosecuted for obstruction caught my eye, so I downloaded the .csv file and got to work - my MS in Statistics needed a workout.
latimes.com/nation/la-na-p… The average years of service at the DOJ of this group is 12.56 years. The median is 8.25. These are not rookies. The longest serving person in this group was Jack Kolar, who left the #DOJ after over 41 years, and promptly went to work @GovAcctProj as their director of litigation
