"While there is some disagreement on the idea of troop deadlines for US soldiers in Iraq, all sides seem to be on board with the amount included in the bill to fund the war. Including the $124.2 billion bill, the total cost of the Iraq war may reach $456 billion in September, according to the National Priorities Project, an organization that tracks public spending. The amount got us wondering:

With these shootings becoming a regular event in the US, the media (and politicians) start looking for reasons for it. Even while I'm in Germany, the parents here are talking about how their kids have toy guns and that helps influence violence ... the only thing that I will agree on is that maybe some of these things help those who already have a predisposition for violence, but it will not

I found this article on Digg today and found it quite humorous. Being actively involved in sports, I've had many female friends that keep a very strict diet of taller men.For the most part, it's ingrained in the women and they rarely think about it, but it usually comes down to feeling "secure". If something were to happen, then theoretically, the man could protect the women. There have been

What is a conversation? - definition: informal exchange of ideas, views, or information There are a number of definitions that I have found with a simple Google search, but a large percentage use the key word "exchange" in it.

Ok, maybe that's not fair. A couple days ago, I returned from Germany (business) and we flew on Air Transat. It was $600 cheaper than Air Canada, Luftansa and KLM, so it was hard to turn them down ... well, i can see why it is so much cheaper ... I would have had more room if they stuffed me in the cargo hold. I feel even worse for our graphic designer that came with us because he is 6'4" and

I was reading the news (caption on TV) at the gym yesterday and heard another piece on how playing video games makes you smarter. This study was done by some University (missed because a hot girl walked in) that people who play video games scored well above others in tasks involving mind solving skills and multi-tasking. Of course, you could try and draw the opposite conclusion that these

I've recently had some conversations with various people on the subject of marriage. They have ranged from extremely religious to quite the opposite.I found it quite funny to hear many religous people admit openly that a main factor in their getting married was to have sex - and hence so many of them getting married between 18-22. If they jump into bed before marriage, they will receive a lot
