Criticism On “Investors Sour on BlackBerry”
BlackBerry makes a good business product. I use it mostly for email and texting. I have my second one, a Curve. It is smaller but with a better keyboard and screen. Battery life is long. I use it for its efficiency.
I also have an EVO Shift with Android. Even with the App Killer, it is a battery hog.
I have friends who have iPhones. They like them, but like them less as they constantly expected to upgrade to keep up with Apple. They don't use them for business, they Twitter and follow More
Thoughts On “Down and Dirty: Cleaning After Geese”
Canada Geese are beautiful creatures. They are monogamous- mate for life. They ferociously defend their nesting territory. But enough is enough! Some posters may ask why is monogamy significant.
As a very young engineer I was taught the universe tends toward eating disorder help, everything will mix together and ultimately reach the same temperature-- of liquid or frozen nitrogen. On that I beg to differ. People who have experienced life enough realize there is considerably more order More
Commentary On “Michio Kaku: Has a Speeding Neutrino Really Overturned Einstein?”
I must admit that my immediate reaction to this news was somewhat like Kaku's, ie. if true, it would overturn all of physics. But I've gotten over that. I don't see why this small change can't be made to the laws of physics without completely throwing out Einstein's transformational leadership theory. All you need to do is make a few modifications to it. And I don't subscribe to the view that every aspect of the theory must be exactly true to explain the experimental results that have More
A Response To “Kodak Struggles to Find Its Moment”
Exactly what I wanted to say. I am a professional famous photographer who shoots digital for clients, but film for personal... and I'm 25 and just started shooting film this year. Film is exciting. Film is a totally different way of looking at photography. I have become a tighter, more thoughtful digital photographer because of it.
Developing film at home is exciting. The hands-on aspect is so much more satisfying than anything digital can offer. I use Kodak B&W roll film as well as More
My Take On “Naomi Schaefer Riley: Academia’s Crisis of Irrelevance”
I don't think the issue is that professors shouldn't research. It's that too many of the research oriented professors teach NOT AT ALL. There are hords of professors who do zippo teaching, denying the students of what you experienced. There needs to be a balance. I for one think any federal grant should require such a balance, we should not be bankrolling research which is not transferred to the student body, we cannot afford to. If you ask most people who have taught on some level, More
My View On “Michael Hayden: Birthers, Truthers and Interrogation Deniers”
He has unlimited power to go to war with Libya, so I'm not that worried about his social authority to use the interrogation methods he deems appropriate on other enemies in other wars.
It's OK for him to order the killing of foreign enemies, but not waterboard them. I just don't get the logic. Nobody questioned Bill Clinton's authority to bomb the aspirin factory in Sudan, Obama's authority to bomb people in Libya, but if they don't kill someone on the battlefield, it is a far greater More
A Commentary On “AARP Pivots on Social Security Benefit Cut”
Chris check your facts before speaking..................i paid all my life into s/s with the understanding that upon my death my wife would continue to receive, should she go on medicaid instead?...become totally impoverished when savings run out? .....have you any idea what job is right for me LTC insurance costs? and why many seniors cannot afford it and so op out not by choice but lack of funds?.....choosing to spend down until nothing is left....what then? the streets?.. may the More
Commentary On “Snoop Dogg, Unwelcome in the U.K, Is in Court Again to Revisit the Banishment Issue”
Sounds to me like Snoop is finding out that if you act like a jerk, people will decide you are a jerk, and issuing an apology later won't necessarily undo the damage you do yourself when you first open your mouth.
This is a guy who made his name as a pimp, and who became famous by singing about having been a pimp and about how cool it is to be a gangsta. Even if he has cleaned up his act somewhat, he is still judged by who and what he presented himself to the world as. That's how it More
Analysis On “Some GOP House Leaders Push Compromise”
Compromise and Bi-Partisanship are CODE WORDS for abandoning ones fiscal & Social Values...WHICH, might I add it WHY Republicans lost in '2004 & '2008..Rhino's are an indangered species that must die out for the sake of our country...I seriously doubt that the NEW BLOOD coming in will Compromise if it goes against everything that the majority of America believes to be her truest organizational values and Traditions..Those that DO will be looking for a new job in 2012..WAKE up Conservatives More
Views On “Obama Proposes Tax Relief for Small Businesses”
W-2 - Should be easy. But what if my company makes me drive my car to various work schedule template sites, and I put on 25,000 miles per year.
To deduct your car expenses file a 2106 2106-EZ and itemize your deductions on Schedule A (Form 1040)
How about the Real Estate Developer? She purchased on shopping mall last year for 2.1M. Paid 25% down and the rest financed with a 25 year mortgage.
I don't know what her depreciation schedule is, however she should get no depreciation and be More
