Spinnaker ...a tribute to Whitney Houston
. I wondered why she didn't marry one of them (she works in health care). Then she opened her mouth and I knew why. == OUCHIE!!! Reminds me of a Richard Prior comedy set, he was commenting about how beautiful his daughters friends were and how they have the bodies of adult women, and how it all ended as soon as they started talking........— February 19, 2012 11:04 p.m.
Fed H-1B Visa Probes May Help American Engineers
85.Nothing is going to change. The offices I see around here are just filled wall-to-wall with kids from India. They all have master's degrees in EE and CS and resumés filled with all the latest buzzwords yet 99% of them can't answer basic questions about the technology they've been brought in to work on. While some are certainly able to do coding most of them have huge holes in their knowledge at a fundamental level. Frequently the "fixes" they implement are just patches or workarounds that hide the underlying problem which they either aren't able or willing to dig and find == If this is indeed true-and I have every reason to believe it is-then it is just a matter of time before the market self corrects and a SMART COMPANY sees these issues and puts Americans back to work. I have said it before, NO ONE can touch this country on education, especially at the university level. It is our entrepreneur spirit and creativity that drives our innovation and that I think has not been able to be duplicated anywhere in the world except here. In 1991/1992 Ross Perot was all over this issue-back then it was NAFTA opposition. Lou Dobbs has been all over the H-1B visa issue for the last 5-10 years, although I have not seen him address it since he has been on Fox News Channel the last few months. Donald Trump-who has the biggest mouth and ego I have ever seen-even gets it and has been all over the outsourcing of jobs issue the last few years also. Our country is crumbling and I suspect someone like a Perot, Dobbs or Trump will eventually be elected and turn things around, otherwise our country will not survive. The Tea Party and Occupy movements are both grass roots movements that IMO have the same goals.— February 19, 2012 8:42 p.m.

I, for one, am looking forward to our future as an impoverished third world country ruled over by a tiny uncaring elite and a ruthless police state == Future??? We are there right now-we resemble a Banana Republic more than the America of the 1940/50/60's. Yes, a BANANA REPUBLIC where there is no middle class, just a handful of rich families at the top and everyone else at the bottom trying to survive Sort of like Mexico where in a country of 110 million people 50 families control 90% of the countries wealth. That is America today except the 50 families are the top 30K citizens.— February 19, 2012 8:29 p.m.

Spinnaker ...a tribute to Whitney Houston
Michael was also the victim of child abuse, and I personally feel, having been abused myself, that much of his "odd" behavior was attributed to that rather than fame and fortune. == MJ was Severely abused as a child. Read his story, his Dad Joe Jackson was a freaking loser who wrecked the lives, especially the childhoods of his children, especially MJ. MJ did not have a very solid or reasonable view of societal norms b/c of his abusive childhood, he just could not wrap his mind around the fact that what he was doing-allowing children to sleep with mim as an adult, was not acceptable in our society-b/c he had such an abusive childhood, not because he was any kind of child molester which is pure fiction. The SB DA was destroyed in the MJ criminal case.— February 19, 2012 7:52 p.m.

I loved the first pic, but will not pay to see this one, it bombed at this WE's box office, coming in a disappointing 4th.— February 19, 2012 1:04 p.m.
