Lebron has been a bad sport when he loses. Most greats in all segments change of career society have big egos, so this is nothing new to me. Then there's the whole loyalty thing. I've never been a Lebron fan but there is little loyalty in sports, just like most businesses. Had Kobe not been born with a golden spoon in his mouth (started NBA career with the Lakers), he would have bolted Cleveland too. Shaq bolted from Orlando the first chance he had, and even had bad things to say about the city, Read more [...]

As far as the job experience thing goes, it really isn't experience that is the issue but character. Obama is clueless, but its because he has no character. LBJ and Nixon had loads of experience, but they weren't very good presidents. Carter and Reagan were both governors, and look at the difference between them. In the end, if your ideology is that America is racist,sexist,homophobic,imperialist and unfair economically, then you won't be a very good president. Bachmann, although inexperienced, is Read more [...]

CCP is just a name, you can call it what every you like. China is not a communist country anymore, look at how to choose a career much money they are lending to other countries, US, EU... How bad is totalitarian vs. monarch vs. socialism? If democracy means people have a choice, maybe, but it's very limited.

Lord willing and he does, bo and his insane rants will be the subjects of books only purchased by the students enrolled in the Ivy League schools where the debates will continue on whether they should erect a statue of bo or name the food hall after the great statesman. We can't all be toadies who promise to buy 300,000+ when life gives you lemons from a government car company and then receive a rebate in the hundreds of millions back. I believe that the Board of GE is in a state of government induced Read more [...]

Our country cannot maintain the path we are on - super libs scream for more spending, Read more [...]

Good post, but actually the Comet's problem was the square shaped windows which would concentrate stresses in the corners symptoms of stress the sheet metal, eventually causing stress cracks to form. The solution was to round out the corners or have oval or round shaped windows, allowing stress trajectories to flow in a more uniform fashion around the window. Studies by DeHavilland also discovered the process by which cyclical pressurization of the airframe over its estimated design operation life Read more [...]
