Data recovery specialist? If the system is setup properly, you don’t need one. You call your backup guy and ask him to restore them from the backups. Even if you only run full backups once a week and differentials nightly you can at least get back to the day before it happened. With something as important as these,…

Baseball just isn’t made for a game like this. It works well with basketball because there is almost constant action in basketball. Hockey would work well if it was more popular. Football barely works if you find a way to shorten the play calling. But there is no way to make it work with baseball. All the delays for…

So the issue is that the democrats would negotiate? They weren’t even allowed to read the bill before it was introduced. Doesn’t anyone remember that it was hidden in a locked and guarded room and then even moved when they thought people might know where it was? How exactly were the democrats supposed to negotiate?

It’s simple, there are no consequences when men participate in sex on tape. Everyone talks about how Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton are terrible sluts for their sex tapes, but no one talks about Ray J or Rick Salomon are terrible for having sex tapes (well, to be fair, no one talks about them at all). They look at it…

The thing is, they have stepped up in a lot of their comics and people just aren’t buying them. Both Black Widow and Spider Woman ended this month, and they were both really good. Sam Wilson Cap is awesome but sells WAY below the Steve Rogers cap everyone loves to bitch about. Ms. Marvel and the Champions are both…

That is a perfectly acceptable idea for why the Steve Rogers Cap isn’t selling. It doesn’t explain all the other series that aren’t selling. Hell, the Sam Wilson Cap basically took the idea on full force by having people in the comic talk about how he “wasn’t their Captain America”. And the Steve Rogers book still is…

You left out 35.5 “But first you verified I was straight, white, and working.”

For most artists, you are right. But when you get to the level of Adele, there is definitely money to be made by selling music. She can demand larger cuts of the sales and get them because a record company knows she will sell a huge amount of CDs.

Did you even bother to read this article? It is talking about plans that didn’t cover basic things like hospital visits and maternity care that were around before the ACA mandated basic standards of coverage. The big graphic at the top shows some the crap insurance that could be offered before the ACA, and could have…

Actually, it is one type of insurance, but you are right, it shouldn’t be the only thing offered. But imagine that deductible, but now they don’t cover things like wellness checks, or maternity, or emergency room visits at all. That is exactly what you would get under the new plan. Hell, that is what we had before the…

“If you live in a state that wants to mandate maternity coverage for everybody, including 60-year-old women, that’s fine”

It is so annoying to hear all the emphasis put on the premium cost and nothing else. Sure, with the AHCA premiums will probably be lower. That’s because your insurance will be crap and you will have to pay for more out of pocket. So you save $100 a month in premium but have to spend an extra $200 a month in co-pays,…

And yet, Dylan Roof was still not charged as a terrorist or even referred to as one. The Pulse Nightclub shooter was a lone man with no ties to terrorist groups (at best, he looked them up online). Yet we was and still is called a terrorist. There are 2 different definitions used, one for muslim/middle eastern men and…

Imagine if this situation was a young muslim/middle eastern man intentionally killing people in New york city and he had ties to a “known hate group”. Do you think for a second every headline would not have the word terrorism in it? Terrorism is not just for brown people.

Having a deduction in no way makes it progressive. The whole idea of a flat tax is that it is not progressive and is the same for everyone. Yes, people making under the deduction would not pay taxes, but the tax rate does not increase as the amount of money made increases. That is the definition of a progressive tax.…

I’m not sure how that would make this any better. The flat tax is usually put out at around 15%. So in this case, Trump would have paid 10% LESS in taxes than he did in 2005 under the flat tax. That doesn’t seem like a way to make the system better at all.

You are correct, but it is still important to point it out. The only way to get the tax system changed is to get enough pressure on legislators to change it. And if people don’t know about these loopholes (which most people wouldn’t because they don’t have anywhere near enough money to take advantage of them) they…

The problem is because of the way the case was handled, we will never get a trial and any semblance of truth in what happened. There was an altercation at that police car, everyone agrees on that. But did Brown go in through the window and attack the officer or did the officer attack him through the window? Was Brown…

Don’t worry, if they find out who did it they will get a much harsher punishment than Martin. They want to prove they take leaks seriously (unlike police abuse and racism).
