    Making Productive Use of Your Down Time

    There is a trap that may happen if you take some of these courses and they don't count for any reason towards a degree or certificate. A lot of schools put stuff out there, like MIT and I think Yale but these courses are not backed up by the school. I had to be careful to select courses that...

    Fiat to be a global automotive powerhouse?

    The funny thing is our government has force all of this to happen and no one seems to care. They expect people to jump up and buy a car that they don't like and it won't help these companies a bit. The biggest mistake that GM can do is get rid of Opel. They provide more than a couple cars that...

    Taliban, Al Qaeda closing in...

    Ship of Fools goes the other way too. I think that is what we have right now, a Ship of Fools who think the messiah will lead them to the promise land and we will be one with our enemies because we will be the country of higher morals and purpose.

    Making Productive Use of Your Down Time

    I have, I am taking courses from two of the colleges listed as part of my reviewing coursework I already finished back in my college days so I can finish my degree (engineering/bio-medical) and then move on with some AP testing so I can get my MBA or what ever fancies my brain.

    Chrysler, loans, the UAW and humpty dumpty

    From Neal Brootz website The reason I have posted this in its complete form is that the UAW has been given so much more than they deserve. The workers who have been on camera have been complaining that they too have an investment in the company. The fact that the worker has never invested in...

    Taliban, Al Qaeda closing in...

    Yep that's what I am saying, the feelings were there before the election and it was all reinforced when he won. Obama's comment did more damage to our relationship. They look at Iran and even looking at us pulling out of Iraq (notice something happening there since the date was announced) and...

    Taliban, Al Qaeda closing in...

    OVM, you are serious? Pakistan has been having problems with fundamentalist for a while and Obama's "I will invade Pakistan if I have to " was treated as a threat to these fundamentalists and used as leverage against our efforts. The people of Pakistan seems to think we will abadon them the...

    is the looming Swine Flu pandemic just nature's way of thinning the herd?

    The one reason we have a high infant mortality rate is the lack of education in this country coupled with the higher teen mothers. The care is there, in many cases absolutely free but there are less than ideal stats showing that an average expected teenage mother doesn't see any doctor during...

    The Absolute Importance of Doing Our Job Well

    Sorry to all of you but I have a hard time with something that is being said here. I find the judgment of fellow professionals who are being called "tide-me-over expediters" or "glorified street people" offensive to the people who are doing their best to survive in these times. It is a clear...

    Flu Schmu

    Yea and look at all the turkeys, chickens and ducks that were killed trying to prevent it from spreading. The reason the swine flu is not called the swine flu in the media is because Egypt decided to kill 300,000 pigs to prevent the spread but they were not infected. The WHO is figuring we may...

    The Trucking Manufacturers are building Junk!!!

    Now here is my point about getting a lawyer when you started in this business. He spent $3000 of what I assume is billable time (hourly) and some of that was explaining to the lawyer what his business is, how the truck breakdown effects his bottom line and what the real issues are. Lawyers are...

    To Davekc

    Exposure? It is interesting that people say this; "I work for a company who I won't mention" which makes me wonder of the credibility behind anything they say. Naming their company is not going to get them in trouble unless there is five trucks in it, it is akin to the people who take the...

    Flu Schmu

    Turtle, This strain is not new, but it has not been adapted to a human host as the other strains have. The problem that makes this a big deal is that fact - adaptation of the strain within the different human bodies will take some time and it may be we will see a return of it sometime in the...
