I'm doing a research project on minimum wage and need you to answer some of my interview questions.

1. What is your title and place of employment?

2. The minimum wage has recently been raised. Many argue that raising the minimum wage to where it is today will have a positive impact on the general society and economy. While there are many others that argue that raising the minimum wage to where it is today will have a negative impact. And there are also others who believe raising the minimum wage is pointless (due to the cause and effect). Where do you fall in all of this?

3. What are your thoughts on the cost of living in connections with the minimum wage?

4. What are your thoughts on the success of our economy in connections with raising the minimum wage?

5. Should there be a free market that determines minimum wage?

6. Any additional thoughts?

Thanks!

I drive a 1993 Nissan Sentra Classic (B12 Series, E16I Engine, Canada). After taking in the vehicle for some problem I found the windshield washer pump is no longer responding.

I checked the wiring and it seems to be transmitting power. I disconnected the plugs into the pump and inspected the ends. There was this green/white thick paste over the leads so i used some rubbing alcohol and a toothbrush to clean it. Not very well tho. The plug going into the very bottom of the reservoir appears to have 2 wires going into it however the blue wire appears to be free floating, not connecting to the plug at all. My guess is this is the problem and it needs to be reconnected for the pump to work.

My questionare:

1. Any good tools to clean out this green/white paste from the leads? The area can be tiny and so my toothbrush isntgetting into the spaces as thorough as id like. If theres some needle-nose like brush with a coarse end, that could do the trick.

I know some women who are beautiful, but they got some stupid thing sticking out of their nose. As soon as I see that, I lose interest. Why do it? I don't understand.

After numerous rounds of "We don't even know if Osama is still alive," Osama himself decided to send George W. Bush a letter in his own handwriting to let the President know he was still in the game.

Bush opened the letter and it appeared to contain a single line of coded message:

370HSSV-0773H

Bush was baffled, so he e-mailed it to Condi Rice. Condi and her aides had no clue either, so they sent it to the FBI.

No one could solve it at the FBI so it went to the CIA, then to the NSA.

With no clue as to its meaning they eventually asked Britain's MI-6 for help. Within a minute MI-6 cabled the White House with this reply "Tell the President he's holding the message upside down."

So about 2 months ago i went out with this guy who i totally fell for named ian who cheated on me with two drunk highschool girls.[we're in eighth grade]
ive had 2 bfs since then but never seem to really want anything except him back.
this is really hard because he wants me back too and knows he made a huge mistake. Hes said sorry uncountable times and i know how hard his life is. His mom is a slut who thinks shes all that and kicks him out of the house when she goes on dates. and ive been talking to him a lot sortof thinking of planning revenge but not really considering it, and then he starts telling me that his dad is abusing him. and he doesnt want anyone to know. like beating him up kicking and punching and striking with a bat.
I don't know what to do.
He won't talk to a councelor. I want to meet with him to make sure that he's telling the truth about this before i talk to MY school councelor, but I don't know if i can bring myself to do that. What should i do??

China Names Condom for Bill Clinton

A Chinese company is honoring ex-president Bill Clinton by naming a new line of condoms after him - along with a companion line of condoms that will be named after his ex-girlfriend, Monica Lewinsky.

Reports Britain's Sky News: The Guangzhou Haokian Bio-science company has registered their names as trademarks for the contraceptives.

The condoms will display Chinese spellings: Kelitun and Laiwensiji.

A 12-pack of Clintons is expected to cost $5.00, with Lewinskys selling at a discounted price of just over $3.00.

The manufacturer's general manager, Liu Wenhua, told Sky News that naming his condoms for Clinton was perfectly legal, explaining that "trademarks of two foreign surnames and can't be seen as a violation of rights."

I think she would, just for the fact that she was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. She would do nothing to help the minimum wage people who are struggling through life.

It is easy for an adult (especially a childless adult) to look back rationally on their upbringing and say that their parents were mistaken in teaching fantasy to them as a young child. “I am moral and have common sense; I obey (mostly) the laws, and I am a good person. I never needed Santa Clause or the Easter Bunny to become who I am now and I will not teach them to my children. I will raise them to be rational and moral like me.”

Common sense is NOT common and it is not picked up through osmosis from society! It is taught from a very early age and is reinforced constantly by parents, teachers, and guardians to create the groundwork for the later stages of rational decision.

All I know is it's played on a rock station (the type that plays Godsmack, Disturbed, STP etc.) and the two lines I know out of it are: "Take me out of this world" and "I'll be more than you ever".

Anyone know this song?

With so many questions about Nick, I thought I'd ask this question to see what everyone would do. For myself, I wouldn't bring back Nick as Nick, but I'd have him come back as Victor, Jr. and have Phyllis get freaked out whenever she saw him. (Can you tell I don't like her??) So how would you bring Nick back?
