Mothers should teach daughters they need to be ready to give up some drawers or head when they enter a man's hotel room at his invitation.

Aug. 3 — Looking for a high-paying tech job? Good luck. Offshore outsourcing—the exporting of jobs that were once done in-house—has been on the increase, to the point where a report by Gartner Inc., an information technology research firm, calls the movement of tech-related jobs an “irreversible megatrend.” Forrester [Research Inc.] came out with a study that said that 3.3 million white collar jobs will go overseas by 2015. It’s hard to forecast out one year, let alone 12, so I’m a bit wary of real numbers. But I do recognize that it is real, and is gaining momentum every day. msnbc.com I'm not making this up, it is right there in black and white in the jobs report. The loss of jobs in the US (we have lost jobs since the recession "ended") is at least part of the reason the deficit keeps getting racheted up. I don't know what can be done about it really, but I want the current WH to address the issue. Right now they act like it doesn't exist.
