This new legislation is so disgusting that I'm surprised Bush didn't try to get this passed at the beginning of his second term. It's no shock that the right-wing freaks always target women with their extreme anti-choice agenda. Now they are trying to set back the medical world 200 years. A last-minute Bush administration plan to grant sweeping new protections to health care providers who oppose abortion and other procedures on religious or moral grounds ...

Penelope Trunk has an intriguing blog entry today entitled, What women can do when they’re young to be happy later on. I say intriguing, because her suggestions may raise an eyebrow or two: 1. Don’t have kids. 2. Keep your career. 3. If you are divorced, get plastic surgery. Her entry goes into more depth and her reasoning for each of these suggestions, and the first two make a lot of sense (I’m a little ...

Every year on November 17 a meteor shower called Leonids hits the Earth. These small meteors cause ionized trails in the upper atmosphere. Radio signals are reflected on these trails. It is easy to hear these reflected signals from a distant transmitter with a radio receiver. In the video above you can hear radio signals popping up out of the noise. The receiver is tuned to 49.739 MHz, a distant TV transmitter stations frequency somewhere ...

In a previous post titled “What Are Social Media Jobs” we discussed the growth in demand of companies looking for “social media managers and experts”. Given the increase in demand for people who appear to understand all this social stuff we thought it may be helpful to examine what is required to become known as a “social media expert”. First we need to define an expert. An expert is known as someone widely recognized as ...

The bloom has fallen off the Google (GOOG) rose. It is likely to stay off, in our opinion, until Google demonstrates a compelling revenue ramp in a new product that can eventually pick up where the search business is leaving off. Before we get to that, though, it's worth noting that much good can come of the company's current slowdown. Google will now be forced to become more disciplined about resource allocation, management, product development, ...

На ликеро-водочном заводе «Кристалл» компанией «Уайтхолл» запущено производство водки «Еврейский стандарт». Водка производится по оригинальной рецептуре, где впервые используются спиртовые настои мацы. На этикетках продукции присутствует знак кошерности, сообщают «Вести» со ссылкой на Агентство еврейских новостей. «Еврейский стандарт» соответствует самым высоким требованиям диетарного закона иудаизма, что лично подтвердил своей подписью главный раввин России Берл Лазар. Продукция кошерна «парвэ» на все дни года, кроме дней праздника Песах. Право поставить печать о кошерности продукта дано не каждому. ...

Dr. Duru submits: Last week, on October 28, Jim Cramer called Apple (AAPL) a barometer of the market: "...if Apple's stock price is falling, the markets are clearly headed lower...When Apple goes higher, the rest of the market comes with it." Cramer even goes so far as to say that if he "had Apple on his [trading] screen, he would trade better than most people." See video here.As with most bold claims like this, no ...

I'm not one to talk; if I make a costume at all this year, it's likely to be something that's geek simple, like MC Frontalot. Still, I think everyone can agree that this AT-ST costume by Cheston wins the geek costume contest hands, or at least articulated legs, down: Design and construction are described in great detail on the MY350Z forums, so I expect to see a whole platoon of these next year.

As if finding a job wasn’t hard enough for Saudi women, what with society’s doubts about the propriety of women’s working, once they do get jobs, they have no legal protection against sexual harassment, reports Arab News. Saudi society has a way of turning the victim of harassment into the perpetrator, saying that ’she asked for it’ by merely seeking to earn an income. The piece cites several instances of harassment, quotes a member of ...
