Major is a military rank of commissioned officer, with corresponding ranks existing in many military forces. When used unhyphenated, in conjunction with no other indicators, the rank is just senior to that of an army captain and right below the rank of lieutenant colonel. It is considered the most junior of the field officer ranks.
Majors are typically assigned as specialized executive or operations officers for battalion-sized units of 300 to 1,200 soldiers. In some militaries, notably France and Ireland, the rank of major is referred to as commandant, while in others it is known as captain-major. It is also used in some police forces and other paramilitary rank structures, such as the New York State Police, New Jersey State Police and several others. As a police rank, Major roughly corresponds to the UK rank of Superintendent.
When used in hyphenated or combined fashion, the term can also imply seniority at other levels of rank, including general-major or major general, denoting a mid-level general officer, and sergeant major, denoting the most senior NCO of a military unit. The term Major can also be used with a hyphen to denote the leader of a military band such as in pipe-major or drum-major.
Barack Hussein Obama II (US i/bəˈrɑːk huːˈseɪn oʊˈbɑːmə/; born August 4, 1961) is an American politician serving as the 44th President of the United States, the first African American to hold the office. Born in Honolulu, Hawaii, Obama is a graduate of Columbia University and Harvard Law School, where he served as president of the Harvard Law Review. He was a community organizer in Chicago before earning his law degree. He worked as a civil rights attorney and taught constitutional law at University of Chicago Law School between 1992 and 2004. He served three terms representing the 13th District in the Illinois Senate from 1997 to 2004, and ran unsuccessfully in the Democratic primary for the United States House of Representatives in 2000 against incumbent Bobby Rush.
In 2004, Obama received national attention during his campaign to represent Illinois in the United States Senate with his victory in the March Democratic Party primary, his keynote address at the Democratic National Convention in July, and his election to the Senate in November. He began his presidential campaign in 2007 and, after a close primary campaign against Hillary Rodham Clinton in 2008, he won sufficient delegates in the Democratic Party primaries to receive the presidential nomination. He then defeated Republican nominee John McCain in the general election, and was inaugurated as president on January 20, 2009. Nine months after his inauguration, Obama was named the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize laureate.

President Obama was having a press conference on the recent nuclear deal with Iran. He is aggressively defending the bill, as he should, because it’s an excellent deal that avoids war and stops Iran’s nuclear program. CBS reporter Major Garrett decided to insert a poorly-thought-out political dig into his question. Obama wasn’t having it. Cenk Uygur hosts The Young Turks. Tell us what you think in the comment section below. "Today's Q&A; became tense for a few minutes after CBS' Chief White House correspondent Major Garrett asked his questions after a particularly pointed statement insinuating that President Obama was "content to abandon" American prisoners held by Iran while the President "celebrates" the Iran deal. Garrett also stated that President Obama left the joint chiefs of staff...

Entrevista que o Presidente da Federação da Guiné-Bissau deu para justificar, embora não o tenha feito, limitando-se a insultar tudo e todos, e autoelogiando-se. Uma tristeza me corre perlas vias e penso que esse Sr. não tem condições de liderar nada. se calhar nem mesmo as suas empresas construídas, como diz, HONESTAMENTE!

Every Christmas, fierce rivalry between Remedios' two neighbourhoods erupts into a festival called "Las Parrandas". Each year on December 24, the sleepy central Cuban town of Remedios comes to life as the two sides of it engage in a showdown - a battle to outdo each other in a carnival-come-festival called "Las Parrandas" with the wildest fireworks and the most elaborate float and light displays. The two neighbourhoods of El Carmen, whose symbol is a hawk and globe, and San Salvador, whose emblem is a rooster, are arch rivals. The teams spend most of the year preparing. Jose Enrique Jimenez Gomez, 47, is leading the charge for El Carmen this year. He has been competing since he was a child and led the neighbourhood from 1987 to 2007. But El Carmen has suffered a five-year run of humili...
