    Great. Economic arguments presented by the same people that brought us 'Hollywood Accounting' and 'Payola' http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Payola http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hollywood_accounting

  2. So what do I do to protect the family network? on Malware Delivered By Yahoo, Fox, Google Ads · · Score: 1

    This new form of attach makes me sad as I recently chewed out my kid for infecting two differtent computers at home. But, last night I got hit by a side panel ad that set off my AV alert. I have also seen some unusual firewall alerts so there is still something there under the hood. The last time I got hit I accendently clicked on a questionable ad while attempting to scroll down the page. But at least I knew that I had clicked. What to do about this? Do I run web browing and email sandboxie? Do I setup VMplayer copies of Windows to browse and email? Are there other (better) solutions? Tea-Timer and the rest seem to drive my wife and Teen age daughter nuts with prompts (and they are never sure what is okay anyway.)

    Sounds like it is time an outerspace garbage man. Where can I apply for that job?

  4. Re:Missing argument in health-care debate on Health Insurance When Leaving the Corporate World? · · Score: 1

    Here is the part that nobody tells you.... up until the banking melt down almost half of all american bankruptcies were caused by medical expenses. Think about that as a hurt on the economy! Some kind of health care could have cut the bankruptcy rate of the USA in half.
