I never knew much about her except that she was a female US Supreme Court justice. I watched her on CSPAN tonight addressing graduates of Georgetown Uiversity law school and relating the way things were back in the 60s and 70s before women were even allowed to serve on juries and did not have equal rights in the work place. She was amazing, a bit frail looking, but very articulate, funny, and still very sharp. ...

Henry Ford, for all his faults, was famous for his foresight in raising plant worker salaries well above the norm so they could afford to buy the cars, thus creating a market for his product. What's changed? Short version, as the planet has continued to develop and markets have been created in hundreds of countries, business can make the products cheaper overseas and sell there too. Plus, inevitably, the identification and loyalty of "American" businesses to America is disappearing a ...

Health care spending is growing at the slowest rate on record: According to the most recent projections, real per capita health care spending has grown at an estimated average annual rate of just 1.3 percent over the three years since 2010. This is the lowest rate on record for any three-year period and less than one-third the long-term historical average stretching back to 1965. This slower growth in spending is reflected in Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurance. This is from the latest ...

This is why we need a public option. For all of those who have been against health care reform, I hope you have a lot of money because I'm afraid we are going to need a big savings account to continue our insurance premiums. Better be getting ready because it will happen.The market concentration for health insurance is so monopolized in some areas that insurance companies are willing to raise prices and lose customers in an effort to improve their bottom line, a leading insurance broker tol ...

Before his forced resignation, President Richard Nixon declared, "When the president does it, that means it is not illegal." Our current chief executive, however, speaking this year at the Pentagon on Sept. 11, said of our terrorist enemies: "They may seek to exploit our freedoms, but we will not sacrifice the liberties we cherish or hunker down behind walls of suspicion and distrust." By contrast, on Sept. 27, Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter Charlie Savage, the press' Paul Revere guardian ...

Does anyone know the answer to this question with a link that I could read about it? My child's school is ran by a few women that I'm sorry but they honestly LOVE drama. They are the type that backstab, talk about people, try to get people in trouble, etc. My child was out of school (with a doctor's excuse) and FIVE different people from the school questioned her on why she was out and wanted to know exactly what she went to the doctor for. Then, the next t ...

I have been spending the day studying. The issues of privacy and what lawyers call a "reasonable expectation of privacy" came up. A girlfriend of mine recently (just on a whim) did that thing where you can have your DNA tested by that organization called Ancestry--the purpose was to determine her ethnicity. (Her parents were both Italian immigrants and she herself was born in NYC.) Anyway, she paid about $100 and the test told her she was 70% Italian, 20% German, and 10% West Indian. The We ...

that is there is a dime's difference between Republican and Democrats. And you know who is laughing? Those in power who read these silly boards and see: Obama this, Bush that, Democrats this, Repubs that. If you stop and think how LITTLE things change from one administration to the next you will begin to have a clue: The system is designed to support the status quo: American as imperialist (foreign policy). Middle class paying for lower and upper classes. Of course there a ...

name, address, father's name, mother's name, etc., etc. and you call the funeral home trying to make sure this is the same person you think it is (a neighbor that used to live behind me for almost 30 years), you give everything and the funeral home says they cannot say it is the same person? They told me they could call the family of the deceased and maybe then they could call me. I said what if wrong family, no I would not put anyone through that and how do I know to show up for eithe ...

Sarah Palin Complains About Loss of Privacy While Being Filmed for Reality TV Show Episode One of the much-discussed Sarah Palin reality TV show, Sarah Palin's Alaska, has debuted to the world. Palin kicks things off by lamenting the invasion of her family's privacy that she says occurred when journalist Joe McGinniss spent the summer in the house next door. Our behavior has certainly changed this summer because of this new neighbor. I think it is an intrusion, an invasion ...

I was tired of the changes Google made anyway. If I wanted other words when I put something in quotes, I'd have put them there. So far I'm using Duck Duck Go and it seems pretty good. Tried Dogpile and just didn't get good results (for the job). Do they invade your privacy too? I'm worried what kind of stuff they would bombard me with when I'm just looking something up for the job. ...

Do you think people use the anonymity of hiding behind the computer screen as an excuse to get away with bullying others? Do you think they would have the nerve to do such a thing in a face to face meeting? I'm curious. Oh and I'm talking about adult bullying. I know there have been cases on FB and other such sites where teens have been bullied to the point of suicide which is horrible. Do you think adult bullying can have a similar affect if the person they are bullying is already hav ...

Okay, so I had a moment of whats out there so I filled out a profile on a dating site (the only way you can see anything on tha site is the fill out a profile), I didn't put a picture up but I did list likes/dislikes. I did talk to a few men but no dates, meet ups or whatever. Well, this morning the site e-mailed me that someone was looking at my profile. To my shock it was my soon to be ex husband. We live in a small town and it is obvious who it is. I was&nbs ...

I've been trying to find a more inexpensive way to buy groceries. I don't do couponing much because all the coupons are usually for stuff I don't normally buy. I was looking at Amazon and it is amazing all the stuff they sell. My question is this. I see for instance a 12 pack of canned beans for 41.84 (pack of 12). Does that mean 12 cans? If so, Amazon is selling for 4 times the amount I pay for at the grocery store. Am I reading that right?&nb ...

I'm considering doing the virtual school for my son next schoolyear, which will be his 6th grade year. He's struggling this year in 5th grade and I'm worried that he might not be ready for middle school in August. In my state, GA, we have an online public school that sounds very good. I'm just wondering if anyone, from any state, has any experience with this and what your thoughts are on this type of education. I'd love to put him in a private school (I think) but right ...

Stressful juggling more than one student, BUT - no parents at the end of it, wanting a play-by-play recap of how their 4-year-old (or 12-year-old) did - no boss SHARING a play-by-play recap of THEIR stresses throughout the day, both professionally and personally - no driving an old car over a bunch of potholes, agonizing over the suspension, the ball joints, or who knows WHAT...nope, it's going to be a hard job (if I'm not always running out of students), but all that emotional who-haw ...

One of my friends on FB messaged me the other day about selling avon online. I guess you set up your own "store" online, and let friends know about it, etc. I think she is just trying to get reps under her so she can make a commission, I am assuming. Anyway, does anyone know if you can really make much money with this? ...

My 18 year old nephew was involved in a wreck and was hospitalized with a severely broken leg. He will be okay, but his parents are very upset that he was loaded! He was drinking and had drugs in his system. He will have charges for property damage to a business also. They searched his room, found bottles of xanax, hydrocodone, vicodin, valium and such. His dad checked the computer and found an account with one of those Canadian and Mexican "pharmacies". He is in t ...

what going on with this Bristol-thing. The most telling are the right-wing and Teaparty websites. What seems to be coming to light is that this wasn't just a "call your Teaparty friends and vote for Bristol" deal, it's now starting to look like manipulation and voter fraud for political gain. One person said he tested ABC's online voting system, and discovered that, although you're limited to 5 votes per email address, you aren't limited to the ...

WE PETITION THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION TO: ban hammers and baseball bats. In 2005, the number of murders committed with a rifle was 445, while the number of murders committed with hammers and clubs was 605. In 2006, the number of murders committed with a rifle was 438, while the number of murders committed with hammers and clubs was 618. In 2011, there was 323 murders committed with a rifle but 496 murders committed with hammers and clubs. It's clearly time to take action on hamm ...

I'm sort of, kind of, maybe, possibly considering signing up with an online dating website like Christian Mingle or Plenty of Fish. Do any of you have experience with either of these? Divorced 6 years (from 2nd husband), I'm finally feeling ready to share my heart again with a nice man. Since I'm 50% the reason for both divorces, I know that I'm far from perfect...but I feel like I've learned to spot a man who will end being a verbal abuser. I hop ...

I may start slowly dating again, and I want to be able to check on people. It's a lot different and a lot worse nowdays than it was 30+ years ago when I was dating at age 18 and you had somewhat better chances of trusting people you met back in those days. That's sad, but a girl has to look out for herself and use any means to be safe. ...

The Department of Justice has ordered libertarian website Reason.com to turn over the information of six commenters after they made threats against the federal judge who presided over the Silk Road trial. Ken White of the blog Popehat obtained the grand jury subpoena issued by the Department of Justice last week, which demands "any and all identifying information” the website has pertaining to the threatening commenters. This includes email addresses, telephone numbers, IP addresses, and b ...

seeking to expand the use of electronic and online voting systems nationwide, according to a leaked Foundations document reviewed by Breitbart News. While the directive was issued two years ago, the issue of electronic voting has become a hot button topic in this year’s presidential election amid fears digital voting systems can be compromised.
