Calling for stimulus, Democrats cite 'real cliff' if jobless benefits aren't extended
Thu Dec 6, 2012
- Three states: Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Alaska, have UI deductions from employees paychecks. NC Yankee, your Cornell Law quote is off the mark, as I also pay into unemployment insurance, as well as my wife. We live in PA, and it's on both of our paystubs every week.
'Watching the insanity' of Black Friday — on Thursday
Thu Nov 22, 2012
- If you're looking to lay blame at the Black Friday creep into Thanksgiving, then that honor goes to K-Mart. Many years ago, K-Mart experimented with opening their stores on Thanksgiving morning, and seeing the success they had with it, kept up this "tradition" of theirs. Naturally, other stores were …
No more Twinkies? Strike may do in Hostess
Wed Nov 14, 2012
- Besides Hostess products, for those who live on the East Coast, one other line of snack cakes could also be affected: Drakes cakes. For those who know who Drakes cakes are, they would be Ring Dings, Yodels, Devil Dogs, etc. Hostess owns Drakes cakes, so that could be another casualty. BTW, Ring Ding …
Jobless rate drop no big surprise, despite the political racket
Fri Oct 5, 2012
- When the number of shuttered stores outnumber the number of stores actually open, that is never good news job market wise.

No Halloween for sex offenders? They challenge California city's restrictions
Wed Oct 3, 2012
- Mike: From The Economist website article August 6th, 2009: "Every American state keeps a register of sex offenders. California has had one since 1947, but most states started theirs in the 1990s. Many people assume that anyone listed on a sex-offender registry must be a rapist or a child molester. B …
Cell phone video shows cop striking woman after Philadelphia parade
Tue Oct 2, 2012
- I watched the video, in it's entirety, on one of the Philadelphia news websites, and it looks like where the silly string, beer, whatever it was, did not come from her. If you watch the full video closely, the object is thrown from behind her from her left side. She has her arms down, which would in …
Wal-Mart workers tell Wall Streeters cuts hurt business
Mon Oct 1, 2012
- Maureen: The one Wal-Mart where I live does have fully staffed cash registers. About a year ago, they expanded, and became a Wal-Mart SuperCenter. Prior to that, the store did have some do-it-yourself checkout lines, but when they expanded, started having all their registers manned. Even the 20 item …
30 years ago, the CD started the digital music revolution
Fri Sep 28, 2012
- Dire Straits' album "Brothers In Arms" was the first all-digital CD to come out. CD's used to have what was called a SPARS code on the CD or the jewel case inserts, showing what type of recording the master of the album was (analog or digital), how it was remastered (analog or digital), and what the …
DNA tests exclude Martin from gun grip in Zimmerman case
Wed Sep 19, 2012
- The Police never told him, it was a 'Dispatcher' civilian employee, which he did not have to comply with. A dispacher has no authority to order anyone to do anything. There seems to be some misinformation here as to 911 dispatchers and what their roles are or are not. As someone who has been on a ne …
