Hurricanes & Global Warming

Here is the simple science of it. Hurricanes feed and strengthen over warmer waters. Fossil Fuels and other forms of pollutants are causing the oceans to warm. Hmm, you make the connection. In a study released just yesterday it is estimated there is an 84 percent chance that at least two-thirds of the sea surface temperature increase in the past century was due to human activity. This conclusion was reached by using 22 unique computer models from 10 different climate centers around the world that recorded changes in the past century. One these days it sure would seem that there would be enough research out there to satisfy all the critics of Global warming. What do you think? Are you still not convinced this could be a problem. See the actual report at the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

The Art Of Ripping Off An Average American Worker

Ok, here's the problem I've been running into for the past few months. Being that I live in Michigan, I had been looking for a job for quite some time. I did most of my job searching online at places like monster and michworks.org. Well, I started to notice that almost every job that I looked at was posted by a staffing company or temporary service like Kelly's Services or Manpower. It seems to be the perfect scam for these "middle-men". They let the company that needs workers feel all warm and fuzy by making it seem as if the employees that they are hiring are already pre-screened. Then once the person starts working, the staffing or temporary service takes 1/2 to 1/3 of their hard earned paycheck every week. Now this is a real problem, because it seems to be happening more and more. I think it is time that we cut out the middleman. It makes me sick to think of all the money that these staffing or temp services are making by riding on the backs of the american worker. I know I am not the only one with this problem. Please, let your voice be heard. Let's stop hard working American's from losing their paychecks to some worthless piggy backer. Encourage business to hire direct!! Maybe this way we won't have to raise the minimum wages anytime soon. Thanks in advance for your input.
