I was at a diner I like recently and asked my usual waitress if she felt better, since the last time I was they said she went home sick.

No, not another insult to throw on the picket lines, Paul Caplan has an interesting update about which CEOs are blogging and how they're getting on.Not that many are, Paul calls it:imagine the leap of faith needed by a Boss. Like King Theoden in Lord of the Rings, they have their own (usually paid) Wormtongues whispering in their ears.But the ones doing it are enthusiastic. Hardly surprising because CEOs tend to like to, well, speak and give their opinions!And as Steve says:They make it easier for those of us who are talking to the frontline troops in the public sector and saying: “Yes it’s OK to get out there and have conversations. Yes it’s OK to talk like a human being and tell stories.” Because now we can add: “… because look, your Boss is doing it!”He has lots of links t

It is such a serious case. More than 1000 jobs are lost.
Some of the firm's 500,000 private and corporate policyholders have been given a total of £357m from the Financial Services Authority's compensation scheme since the collapse.
A former insurance chief has been jailed for seven years after being convicted of defrauding investors.

Resident Evil 2 was for many years considered the epitome of survival horror greatness. It stood as the horror game all others strived to be. And for good reason. Capcom’s classic, Resident Evil 2, was improved by leaps and bounds over it’s predecessor.
You had a significantly more complex narrative, that included a large cast of all-new characters in a deep and involving storyline that intertwined with each other. Claire Redfield and Leon S. Kennedy each received their own pair of scenarios, and during each one you ran into a new pair of sub-characters, Ada Wong and Sherry Berkin, the latter of whom was daughter to a whole new host of characters directly involved in the creation of an all-new G-virus by Umbrella.
And it wasn’t just storyline and character development (not to mention spoken dialogue) that was improved, you also gained a wider variety of weapons, there were more secrets to unlock (including two entirely new scenarios, HUNK and “Tofu”) and t

i was having such a good day until a few minutes ago. One of the managers from the texting company I work for just sent me a nasty email about my work today. Whats really pissing me off is I have been doing things the exact same way for 9 straight months (since I started on that server) and no one has complained until now. She sent me this email saying she has flagged my account about there being a problem with my work and if it happens again she is going to contact a higher up.

Spyker bosses were encouraged by the race pace displayed by Adrian Sutil in the US Grand Prix.
The young German made a remarkable start to vault from the back row of the grid to 13th place and then held his own in the midfield group, staying with Alex Wurz’s Williams and keeping the chasing pack at bay.
Although he later fell behind some drivers on a one-stop strategy, Sutil was satisfied with his afternoon’s work.

first let me say that the easiest way to clear trash is this... gather some up, fellowship conjunction - 5 reds/1 green. nice aoe w/ 1 minute HoT.now, to bosses:Assign Crowd Control (if necessary)Tank n' Spank (interrupt casting if possible, animations are usually very clear)Fellowship Conjunction = 3 blues/3 greens (having the tank and healer/s on greens is the easiest way to assign colors)Lather, Rinse, Repeat, Collect Loots.keep in mind that this strategy is working near-to flawlessly on 6man instances. havent tried it on any raid instances yet, but i'd assume we'll find a lot of 5+1 to ease the healers a little, and get a damage boost.btw, if anyone from turbine reads this:imo, fellowship conjunctions work exactly as planned. but when a boss has 30k+ health, and all you have to do is beat on him and take down an add or two, its too easy. more adds would be great (a few sigs is better than 1 annoying elite). and knockback, thats a great way to disorganize people. especially if it

If I were a chief of staff in the Bush administration, I would be worried. Of late, the line between "fall guy" and "stand-up guy" seems to be drawn at the chief of staff's door. Two chiefs have gone down in the last two weeks. First, Vice President Cheney's former top man, Scooter Libby, was convicted on four of five counts of perjury, obstruction of justice, and making false statements. Meanwhile, Cheney remains (no matter that the prosecutor in the case said a cloud continues to hang over the vice president). This week, Kyle Sampson resigned as chief of staff to Alberto Gonzales for not disclosing the role of the White House in the firing of eight U.S. attorneys. Gonzales still has his job, and the president fully supports him (though the cloud over the attorney general could be picked up by Doppler).

The Frogs desiring a King(Illus by Harrison Weir, John Tenniel, Ernest Griset)The Frogs were living as happy as could be in a marshy swampthat just suited them; they went splashing about caring fornobody and nobody troubling with them. But some of themthought that this was not right, that they should have a kingand a proper constitution, so they determined to send up apetition to Jove to give them what they wanted. "Mighty Jove,"they cried, "send unto us a king that will rule over us and keepus in order." Jove laughed at their croaking, and threw downinto the swamp a huge Log, which came down splashing intothe swamp. The Frogs were frightened out of their lives bythe commotion made in their midst, and all rushed to the bankto look at the horrible monster; but after a time, seeing that itdid not move, one or two of the boldest of them ventured outtowards the Log, and even dared to touch it; still it did notmove. Then the greatest hero of the Frogs jumped upon theLog and commenced d
