prof. Ajami talks about the Sunni-Shi'ite perennial workplace conflict with each others. At the same time he writes (aptly so) of Iraqi Shiite's fear of the Iranian mullahs. Ha ha, what else new in the land of the Pistook halabi (Pistachio), the Nargila (Hooka), Sheesh kabab, the Belly dancing, and the 1000 Arabian nights.? With their common religion sects (Shi'ite) More

Sports has always been a metaphor for Sports! It has about to do with reality as the reality shows we have been submitted to. There are no referees, umpires, time-outs, penality shots, or any other metaphors in reality. In reality, its hard to tell the good from the bad, from the ugly. Very few make the $100,000,000 in their 20s. It is a myth! One that causes too More

I was worried about it .. i knew it was going to happen . some darned atoms can't stay put but I can't resist the other explanations that are equally valid .. 1. I now know why europeans don't take a bath for years .. 2. I have to find an attorney to file a class action against the RMKS system 3. I can go back to the french shop where I brought apples years ago and More

All of this nuanced blather must be of great comfort to Obama & Regime. It underscores that we have lost the integrity, self-discipline and capacity to identify and assess lethal threats to our Republic. When you cannot or will not define the threat, you virtually guarantee its success. (See also Homeland Security.) Obama's intent has been, and continues to be unwavering: More

To create jobs you must create value. A farmer does this with sweat, seed, fertilizer, etc. He exchanges the value he creates with value that others create - doctors, builders, detroit, dentists - through the medium of money. If you give someone money they will go exchange it looking for jobs value others create..ie., for food, rent, and so on. But the economy will More

I agree there is no substitute for a mom and dad working together. So what happens when one part of the couple starts working against the other? Still you should stay together to avoid hypocrisy? When staying in a marriage means sacrificing your own morality then what example are you setting for your children? I hold firm that staying true to your core convictions More

Hi Joe. Since you are over 50, you must have met quite a few people over the years. I suggest that you reach out to folks you have worked with over the years, as well as friends and relatives through e-mail, telephone and online at LinkedIn. If you are not familiar with LinkedIn, it is worth your time to learn about it, as it will enable you to research companies More

Dennis, apparently the first 8 years were completely useless. We had to wait until Obama took office to do what Bush gave up on, getting OBL.... __________________________________________________________________________________ I'll grant you that I wasn't in total agreement with the Bush handled the war, but at least he threw the Taliban and Al Qaeda out of the More

I have always maintained that China is way too overrated. Sooner than expected, Chinese labor salary will match that of the U.S. workforce. This will force U.S. companies to move their base to another developing intuition country where labor is cheaper. Sooner or later, American companies will have to move back to the U.S. once salaries across the developing countries More

The SAT and ACT tests are a crock! They provide no sound educational basis for success in college, and are slowly being disregarded from top colleges as a source of admissions. What you accomplish in high school grades and your school's past graduates success/failure in college are the only major areas that will show what type of college student one will be. I know More
