Not my territory of expertise but….found this very interesting….
Here are the three I enjoyed the most.
1- Take her off that pedestal
Don’t idolize her and build her up into something great. She is nothing of the sort. So don’t gaze lovingly at pictures of her. Don’t jump to answer her e-mail or phone calls. And definitely [...]

Many of you might have read my previous post on my initial experience with MagicJack. With this post I will say what I still think about this.

This is just too funny. Microsoft starting their propaganda war against Safari.
Stop Safari NOW!
Microsoft created Windows in a way so that IE works the best with Windows and hence forcing people to stick with IE. A lot of programs required in IE actually starts up at the beginning when you boot up your computer. [...]

The new iPhone of American politics, Barrack Obama did it finally. This is an extremely smart guy. No one in their right mind would want to run against someone like Hillary Clinton, who had such an established base behind her supporting her campaign.

“Violence as a way of achieving racial justice is both impractical and immoral. It is impractical because it is a descending spiral ending in destruction for all. The old law of an eye for an eye leaves everyone blind. It is immoral because it seeks to humiliate the opponent rather than win his understanding; it [...]

After watching the US primary drama unfolding on the republican side this question popped into my head. Romney and others are trying to portray McCain as being not a “true” conservative.
