    Hatred for the U.S. Press

    I was reading an interesting piece about Cronkite and his backstabbing of Johnson. The author pointed out in WW2 the press was censored, they had to follow the orders of the military on what to write and how to write it but cooperated with the press corp with telling them the truth off the...

    barry sayes: Obama: Too much debt could fuel double-dip recession

    China's centralized government was not in control of the country for most of the 20th century after the fall of the Qing Dynasty. Before that, there were times when the country had a number of internal wars and no government at all. So China in our case is concern, they hold the purse strings...

    update on the horrible situation/company I am with.

    Well I don't know much about Canadian laws, but I assume they are like the laws here. The contract is disclosed and you retain a copy for your protection under DOT regulations. The contract can be altered if only they retained a copy to make it look like what every they wanted it to. I would...

    barry sayes: Obama: Too much debt could fuel double-dip recession

    He got the message that China wanted him to get. It took a communist to tell a socialist that the capitalist system does work and don't try to **** it up.

    GM to repay government loans early!

    Sorry dude but that is not the entire story and you don't know what is not being reported. They posted a loss of 1.6 billion which is nothing but corporate BS for wall street, they realeased their financials early as part of their propaganda thing and the real numbers are not being released...

    Logging to be required on CV's ?

    It takes some skill and planning on filtering those ads. sometimes it is a pain in the a**. I did an op-ed in 2003 about something a company did and asked for boycotting of the company but on the sidebar of the site there sat a number of ads for the company's product.

    Parliamentary restaurant to serve seal meat

    So is it a cultural thing or is it an industrial thing? If it is a cultural thing, maybe bringing it up to the world court will not be useful seeing the EU also controls the output of farms and food processors that is also cultural, like some of the dairy processors being forbidden to make...

    Road Test Required for FDCC?

    The best way to answer this is to call FedEx and ask them directly. If it is, you should be good to go with a quick review and maybe a little refresher and a document signed off by the instructor, otherwise you may have to find a place to take one. The road test is not hard, to be exact, maybe...

    Changing to cargo van, have questions

    Depending on who you work for, the medical is part of the package. The big boys require it and if the CSA 2010 hits some of these little carriers, then they will also have to deal with it. So I said yes
