Care to explain to me what welfare and public assistance have to do with determining how easy, or difficult it is to get and keep a job? Add in the aforementioned two and the cost of housing and food.

What a strange set of criteria. The first three cover economics. So that tells you what it's going to cost you to live in an area and if you're going to get/keep your job.

Disability? So if a construction worker falls off a scaffold, that's supposed to show exactly what?

Life expectancy and obesity. What do either one…

Perhaps they're overloaded, but when you go to their update page for the various Kindle units, you can't pull up the latest update information.

I've got a Kindle Fire HD 8.9"

I come from the corporate side of negotiating.

If at all possible, let your opponent come up with the first price. You never know if they might give you a better deal than you were going to ask for.

Come up with justifications for your price and present those before you ever give a price. i.e. If the price of your…

Adam, please tell us your scientific and food ingredient background.

I've worked in the food industry for 30+ years. More importantly, I've had to help a company get an FDA GRAS approval.

As for other countries and what they allow and don't allow.

From the same studies.

US bans Red #2, but allows Red #40. Almost all of…

Rob is a software engineer, who admits that he spent less than a year coming up with the "perfect food".

I'll go to him for software. Impoverished people can't afford this stuff.

I just suggest that if you decide to go this route that you try to monitor your body very closely.

This happened a very long time ago. I worked at a company that truly was horrible.

We all had individual offices. Guy starts on Monday. Goes out for lunch. 1:00, he's not back. 2:00, he's not back. Finally someone goes in his office. There's an envelope on his desk. When we opened it up, it essentially said, "You folks…

Question. Take what you consider the 5 most nutritious ingredients in the world. Would you eat those and nothing else for the rest of your life? Forgetting about taste. (Of course my wife would probably go with pizza and nothing else.)

I'm a musician, and I have quite a few friends who are musicians.

The law states that musicians MUST get paid when their music is used on sites such as Pandora.

I still buy a lot of music. That being said, some musicians and especially the studios are playing the system. Their prices are going up and their costs are…

I work in an industry that provides ingredients to primarily the food industry, some to the pharmaceutical companies and lastly to the supplement industry.

The FDA has a couple of different categories when they approve things for sale to humans.

If you want to sell something going into food, or drugs, the testing is…

All of them.

I used to fly 100,000 miles per year. Actual miles.

Until the airlines start putting in coach seats that give consumers enough room side to side and enough leg room, it's irrelevant.

No matter what airline you're on, a four hour flight with your knees on your chin, and sitting between two sweating 350 lb.…

So it has taken ONE US credit card company how long to catch up to European technology?

And US corporations have Americans buffaloed into thinking we're on the leading edge of technology.

I LOVE the picture. I can't tell for certain, but the car pictured is either a Triumph TR4, but more likely a TR6. My "extra" car is a Triumph TR8, which comes from Triumph's last production of cars in 1981.

"NEW" car?

This could be a very good deal for me and for CBS.

- After getting shut out by Turner last year, the broadcasters better find an alternate to cable, or they're going to be susceptible to total blackmail. The cable companies will be free to dictate pricing.
- I live far enough out that over the air TV isn't an option.
-…

I LOVE all 3 of our Rokus.

That being said, the most free channels have always been religious.

Amazes me.

How about. It makes you think.

Reading "Gulliver's Travels", how many people don't understand the meaning behind the book? "Animal Farm". The list is too long.

Taylor scale.

I'm a foodie and for many things, especially baking, you need to do things by weight, not by volume.

One shortfall of the Taylor scale is if you have to use BIG bowls, or anything else that obscures the readout.

Many scales have readouts that are removable.

Yes, I'm in fact a dog judge. Tracking and obedience.

This is a great tip.

- Also add noise as if you're having fun.
- Let's say that you've got a dog that comes to you 95% of the time. Want to ruin all that training for the next couple of years. When you do get the dog to come to you, start screaming at the dog and…

Always, always, always, talk to the person you want to give you a reference.

As a recruiter, I can't tell you the number of people who think that just because someone seemed to like them, that they'd give them a reference. Worst case. I called a candidates reference. The reply essentially. "This guy was the worst…
