  1. Is there a website for everything?
  2. I'm going to assume you meant to add "for me" From what I've heard, Weight Watchers focuses on calories with no regard for macro or micronutrients Nope, i meant period
  3. Weight Watchers is the only thing that works long term
  4. Mine isn't done yet, but I'm close. Will post video when I get it together. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JxW6Oxh-Mos
  5. You sir are 100% wrong. Our economy struggles do the lack of good jobs for people that have a high school diploma and want to work hard (manufacturing). That has nothing to do with unions. It has everything to do with unfree trade. Because of unfree trade, it is cheaper to make poor quality product in other countries. We (American's) would rather pay a few bucks less for the crap made in China. Corporations have been breaking unions for years because you have no chance of competing on the world stage. I worked at a facility that was built to bust a union in the 60's. Yes, as in 1960's. We were the highest producing facility in our 'niche' for decades. A lot of people, at all levels, made a lot of money. Methodologies like 'lean' and 'just in time' must be flexible and the union environment isn't. Production workers at Toyota-USA, Hyundai or Nissan work for $25-$35 per hour with benefits producing vehicles that people want. There are theories around that the GM bailout was to avoid bankrupcy. Some say it is almost certain GM and Chrysler would have been able to blow up the union contracts that they were under had they gone the bankrupcy route. Too big to fail, saving the union contract or both?...you decide. At the end of the day I think we are to blame. We buy crap and have no problem with unfree trade. I'm really not trying to pick on you, but your analysis is just lazy. Why don't you tell us about how a guy use to make a ton of money working for a company that made steam engines or horse drawn carriages? Times change. This is a Carlfense X = Y argument. Global temperatures are rising while union membership is declining. That means global temperatures would go down if more people joined unions.
  6. Suspended again --> Link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6H1vLdIZWmM
  7. What's the average teacher-student ratio for home schooled children versus public schools? Do you think that might factor into the higher scores? what's the average number of kids that are home schooled that know very little english, live in a one/no parent household and not exposed to poverty or violence?
  8. I hope by the time Rex is gone we have a mature enough offense that we don't have to rely on one player.
  9. Doesn't really sound a whole lot different than the rhetoric that surrounded the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008. That worked........ didn't it?
  10. What ever happened to glamour shots? Dress up any female member of the family like a skank, use a bottle of hairspray and throw in a feather boa.... How about a trip down memory lane? I would like to see what people can find. I found this hottie.
  11. Is there anyone else that looking for information other than an editorial written by a Law Professor that has worked at a public University since 1967? This statements alone sounds like my Union Head teacher mother when Heineman comes up. His portrail raises eyebrows, but for some reason I'm wanting more. The only thing I can find in internet searches are links to this same article or message boards that read similiar to this one.
  12. It seems like there have been a lot of deaths on highways north of Kearney over the last few years. Another unfortunate incident on Highway 2.
  13. I never agree with Carlfense, so I have to make an exception to my rule here. I don't see how calling out an 8 year old because they have a deadbeat parent(s) accomplishes anything. An 8 year old that doesn't complete homework is nothing short of bad parenting. I would think any teacher would recognize that.
  14. How noble of you. Then why post it? It's like telling a racist joke and then telling people you have a friend that is a minority.
