IN THE GLASS CEILING"The 50th woman to leave this Earth is orbiting overhead. If we can blast 50 women into space, we will someday launch a woman into the White House."
"Although we weren't able to shatter that highest, hardest glass ceiling this time, thanks to you, it's got about 18 million cracks in it, and the light is shining through like never before, filling us all with the hope and the sure knowledge that the path will be a little easier next time." - Hillary Clinton
Probably the best speech she gave for the past year.
Now McCain & Co. must deal with walking the narrow path to avoid even simply
implying race as an issue between now and November. I don't think John will have a problem but controlling more hardcore elements of his party
may be problematic. After Hillary's barely veiled racist statements torpedoed her already failing effort, they should have learned a lesson, but people have a tendency to engage their mouths before releasing the clutch on their brain.
The billionaire co-founder of telecoms equipment maker
Broadcom, Henry T Nicholas III, has
a lot of trouble to deal with over the next few years.
The
Phoenix Mars Lander is experiencing some
unanticipated problems.
The recent outbreak of salmonella in Texas and New Mexico tomatoes has spread to 16 states and now the
McDonalds in Canada are discontinuing the use of tomatoes on their sandwiches. A precautionary move. To prevent ingesting the bacteria, you just need to wash the tomatoes in warm water or cook them at 140+ degrees.
The
City of Los Angeles is suing
Time-Warner Cable for "lousy service".
And
ComCast has its own problems over a "
right arm" check that got published on the web.
