Interest on government student loans set to double this summer
Tue Apr 9, 2013
- And just what is "an unemployable degree"? There are students with education degrees, criminal justice degrees, and on and on that can't get jobs. These students want to work and can't find jobs. My daughter couldn't find a job and ended up joining the Navy.
Coast Guard finds fuel leak caused engine fire on Carnival Triumph
Mon Feb 18, 2013
- They do. Basically, it says they can do anything they want including termination of the cruise. The cruise line is giving more than the agreement says they have to give as it is. There are fire control systems and they worked. The ship didn't sink. Nobody died.

Teens who use smartphones may engage in more sex
Tue Oct 30, 2012
- True. If all it took to have sex is a smartphone, every married man in this country would give their wife a smartphone for every day of the week. These same people that are saying that teens shouldn't have phones are the same people who leave their kids at home unsupervised all the time.

Fri Oct 5, 2012
- For the lie of me, I don't know why anyone would travel outside of the country these days. Every where you look, someone is hating on Americans. I saw a good quote the other day, "Let's stop sending our aide to foreign countries so they can hate us for free!"
