If a CEO from a power corporation states global warming is true and we need to act on it now, do they really believe it or are they pushing for more government handouts to build more windmills?

>>"The science of global warming is clear. We know enough to act now. We must act now."

James Rogers, CEO of Charlotte-based Duke Energy.<<

Global warming is very profitable.

I started a job on May 8th at a Dr's office as a receptionist. On the day of my interview I was notified I would be on probation for 3 months and until then, they would determine whether I'd be hired on a full time basis or not depending on how well I did. At that time I was getting Unemployment and continued until I knew for sure they'd keep me. The position to me was "temporary" since I was on probation. After 1 1/2 month, they decided not to keep me because according to them I was not what they were looking for. Every two weeks I would report to unemployment my extra income and was always honest about everything. Now unemployment does not want to continue my benefits because they claimed I lied stating that I reported false information because a three months probation does not mean "temporary", that it's considered a full time position. I am confused, should I appeal it? I don't agree with unemployment at all...

Men and women are tests for eachother? Why do we fail? Why do we have sex and hold hands and want to mate ?! It's nature, but it's nature we should go against.

I cannot stand it. I vow not to look at a woman again. Now you all dont twist your mind, I do not like guys.

I am tired of bullshit thinking of sex, love, all that bull ****!

It's a waste of life, and I want to pass the test this time.

I hope I enlighten someone.

I enlightened myself.

I'm saying that in light of the fact that a lot of people don't have legitimate access to the institution of marriage. For example, you may be single but extremely undesirable because of appearance, prior relationships with which you've had children, finances, and other things. It's possible that you may desire to get married but cannot. However you have to abstain and constantly fight with your bodily urges. I have difficulty with this one, so any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.
