    Liberal News' Biases and Double Standards.

    If people were compensated based on the danger of the job, the Army would attract and retain like, everybody, because they'd all be paid millions.

    Liberal News' Biases and Double Standards.

    The math may be too easy. For one, Wisconsin state troopers average $22,000 in benefits themselves. That additional figure doesn't bring a cop's salary to that of a teacher, but then again you don't need a college degree to be a cop. Plus, the notion that high salaries attract and retain high...

    Liberal News' Biases and Double Standards.

    Is actually very unusual in journalism, but it's the bread and butter of political Bloggers. The problem comes from those who get their news from political Blogs.

    Temperature Gauge on Sprinter Van

    If you want to idle a Sprinter in the winter to keep warm you need to use an idle stick to bring the RPMs up to at least 1200. And that's for fan speed 1 or 2. For fan speed 3 you'll need at least 1800 RPMs.

    Liberal News' Biases and Double Standards.

    I don't think the press has ever met a candidate or an elected official that they're afraid of.

    The Brian Williams saga.

    It makes for some fine entertainment.

    Honey

    That's probably pretty typical. The perception is sugar=unhealthy, honey=healthy. But they're really the same. Actually, because of the perception, people think honey is healthy so they eat more of it than they would sugar, and it ends up being more unhealthy than sugar. If you're going to eat...

    The Brian Williams saga.

    People watch him. It's ratings dollars. And it's why Bill O'Reilly is much more valuable to Fox News than Brian Williams is to NBC News. Bill OReilly will survive this whereas Brian Williams will not. One reason is because Williams' case is very specific but O'Reilly's is more open to...

    Honey

    That right there is how I eat it most of the time. Not every day, but 2 or 3 times a week I'll stick a teaspoon down in there and just eat it. Not a lot of calories, doesn't really affect my blood sugar because it's not very much (I'm diabetic) and it has loads of antioxidants. At least once a...

    CDLs for CVs

    None of it requires a bulkhead of any kind. Some can't be hauled in the cab of a truck, which means it can't be be hauled in a van, whether the van has a bulkhead or not. The reason Panther won't put placarded HAZMAT on a van is the driver will have to log and scale while placarded. When...

    The Brian Williams saga.

    Both Brian and Bill embellished in the same way to make themselves look better. I don't think Williams did it on purpose, because he accurately reported things initially and it got conflated over time. O'Reilly on the other hand mischaracterized his experiences from the get-go and cannot bring...

    Cleveland Browns' new helmet and logo.

    It's just a different shade of orange and a brown face mask. It's just as boring as before. But, it reflects the "new" Cleveland. Yep. Just as boring as before.

    Honey

    I order my honey (and one pound blocks of beeswax for cutting boards and other uses around the house) from http://www.ebeehoney.com They're out of Ashland, OH. If you're not sure what kind you like, they have a variety pack that's excellent. One of my favorites is the buckwheat honey, a dark...

    The Brian Williams saga.

    Billy was never in a war zone down there. He embellished, same as Williams.

    CDLs for CVs

    Mostly correct. Any license with an endorsement is a CDL, as non-commercial licenses don't have endorsements. The endorsements are called "Commercial Driver's License Endorsements." A Class C license is for any single vehicle, or combination of vehicles, that does not meet the definition of...

    Jews in Great Britain, not safe

    The root cause of the problem is twofold: religion, and the US meddling in other countries' business.
