Pro tip: if your lady parts are turning purple, you might want to get that checked out. Tho with Obamacare, that maybe more difficult than you might expect.

Layers and layers of editors and fact checkers?

Buzzfeed's Tyler Kingkade is reporting from the trial, and wrote that Eramo's lawyers showed a forwarded email from Jackie to the Rolling Stone author "showing that the dean had set up two meetings with police so Jackie could report the alleged rape to authorities." Eramo's lawyers said reference to this email appeared in an earlier draft of the article but not the final piece.

As the mother of one son, I have often thought that devising a pathway to parenting our boy was a much more difficult task than it was for our three girls. And Adrian Wood’s concerns—though valid—highlight some of the reasons why. She wants to raise children that are equal, but her definition of equality rests on a false bedrock principle: sameness. Boys and girls are fundamentally different. Equality cannot mean sameness without hurting boys’ ability to grow into responsible, risk-taking, lively and manly men. It’s nice that the left-leaning writers at Babble are finally starting to realize this.

IRA,

On that job description, I expect they already had a candidate in mind. It read just like those must have brown hair, a first name of Bob, and been born 10/12/82 jobs. If that is so then the advert is correctly written. They don't want you to apply. They are only posting it to comply with federal regulations.

Ben is correct on the job ad. It's already been filled.

When I needed to find a job the utility here (AEP) had very specific ads w/the computer blocking me from proceeding if I said "no".

BITD we wrote the specs, reviewed the bids, interviewed the final 3, tweaked the Purchase Order, and fought our battles to makes sure the company complied. Just ONE job duty.

But I was not and never had the title of Purchasing Agent. Same thing w/Joint Use, leasing antenna/tower sites, Regulatory issues, and so on. I was in Telecommunications (various titles) but the computer program would not let me apply since I didn't have the right titles.

Too damn old, graduated in 1970 (pre-computers), pre-Windows (used Basic), and taught ourselves whatever was needed to get the job done. Contacts had either died or retired and disappeared. (Lack of foresight on my part fur sure.)

Enough whining, this is pretty cool. The Greenies should jump on it but ...

"Bob, if you'd have speared one in the butt hole, they would have noticed you pretty quickly. A 2 foot piece of steel pipe would have worked, too.

Good advice. Received this today. Need to secure the spear head better and rough up the shaft but 18" head and sturdy shaft. Will not have to worry about shooting lanes now. Just positioning multiple targets.

Encountered the dogs again (not in my yard so no shot available). Saved a neighbor's cat.

Encountered the owner. Never met a Latino Suburb Whiny Guy before. "My dogs would not do that. Sigh. Hard to be Clint Eastwood when you are dealing a Mr. Rogers.

The cops are not going to move a finger until a person gets mauled by the dogs.
