Regular swearing at work can help boost team spirit among staff, allowing them to express better their feelings as well as develop social relationships, according to a study by researchers.
Yehuda Baruch, a professor of management at the University of East Anglia, and graduate Stuart Jenkins studied the use of profanity in the workplace and assessed its implications for managers.
I know my children were the beneficiaries of a government-run insurance program until they became adults. Members of Congress and their children are eligible for health care that's under the government's umbrella. The President and his are family as well. If it's good enough for congressional kids and the President's kids, it should be good for the low-income children who are desperate for health care coverage.
A defiant Blackwater Chairman Erik Prince said yesterday he will not allow Iraqi authorities to arrest his contractors and try them in Iraq's faulty justice system. "We will not let our people be taken by the Iraqis," Mr. Prince told editors and reporters at The Washington Times. At least 17 of 20 Blackwater guards being investigated for their roles in a Sept. 16 shooting incident are still in a secure compound in Baghdad's Green Zone and carrying out limited duties. Two or three others have been allowed by the State Department to leave the country as part of their scheduled rotation out of Iraq and are expected to return.

So regarding the GM08 campaign... last night when I was watching the Colbert Report... he said that the registration fees for the South Carolina primaries... (he said he is running on both the GOP and Dem tickets..:rolleyes:) costs as follows:
$2,500 for the Dems... and
wait for it... $25,000 for the gop race....
How telling is that shit?
I think someone should start a money raising campaign to get Goldwater Miller on the South Carolina ticket.

Quote by starling310:That's the thing.. I don't know how much more active she is supposed to get... it really is time for american citizens to get active. REally... I watch Cindy, and Dennis and I think.. wtf... they are the ones carrying oour water. I don't know if he meant, but at the end there, it sounded like he was telling Cindy to "Get Active." That is a point I'd take issue on. CIndy has been active for some time now. And, when she said she'd be running for the CA Senate, she got shit for it. So, I would hope he didn't intend to say that to her. If so, he's preaching to the choir on that one. In terms of John Kerry, I agree with Thom. It was a flaw in character that made him back down in '04. He had the support of his VeePee, the people, probably his wife and kids ( i am assuming on that one ) and said "screw it" and walked away. Lame. Lame. Lame.Quote by Raine:I think you are right :star:...

Quote by starling310: Yeah, Raine, I don't think he was talking to her. I certainly hope not. He was talking to me. And, others like me; who march and call Congress and call it a day. I guess that isn't enough anymore.
Quote by Raine:
Randi went outside of a pub, having a smoke, went down and woke up the way she did. How interesting.
Someone mugged this woman. I am not surprised that she cannot remember what happened to her. Not surprised at all.
From her description, having someone save her eye, as well as her teeth, sounds
like more than just a fall.
Something smells.

Quote by Raine:
touche.
("fuckin'" always adds that special touch!!)
I suspect she remembers that happening, tho. I am really thinking that something very traumatic happened with Randi... like you said... saying you got mugged and then not remembering it, ending up with missing teeth and a bashed eye... something is wrong.
Seriously... she went outside of a pub, had a smoke, went down adn then woke up with missing teeth?
You think she was that drunk? I don't... I am wearign my super duper foil hat today...
:d

Rachael talks about a lot of things you do. As does Thom. As does Greg Palast. As does Jim Ward, for Pete's sake. Sheesh.

The White House said President Bush was pleased with todayÕs result. ÒAs it is clear that this legislation lacks sufficient support to become law, now is the time for Congress to stop playing politics and to join the president in finding common ground to reauthorize this vital program,Ó said Dana Perino, Mr. BushÕs spokeswoman.
