Social Security Disability Versus Unemployment Benefits

July 13th, 2009 Posted in News | No Comments »

If you watch the nightly news, the numbers are staggering: another two thousand people laid off in my state, and unemployment rates are soaring. Jobs no one wanted before-McDonalds, movie theater ticket puncher, and water park worker-are suddenly in demand. Teenagers looking for summer jobs are being forced to mow lawns and wash windows, or they’re just playing video games instead. As for those who find themselves laid off and unemployed? They have two choices: join the retrace fighting for another job, or apply for government assistance.

Unemployment Rates From Around the World

July 13th, 2009 Posted in News | 1 Comment »

Small countries with low unemployment rate:
Andorra which is a country with a population of 71,822 has an unemployment rate of 0.00%. Now, how does this country do this? The answer to this is since World War II through its tourist industry, many immigrants both legal and illegal have been attracted to the thriving economy with its lack of income taxes. Now this leads to another country that has the same unemployment rate of 0.00% by the name of Monaco. Many of us have heard of this country that has a population of 33,000. Economic development was spurred in the late 19th century with a railroad linkup to France and the opening of a casino. Since then, the principality’s mild climate, splendid scenery, and gambling facilities have made Monaco world famous as a tourist and recreation center.

Who Was Nikola Tesla?

July 10th, 2009 Posted in News | 5 Comments »

Nikola Tesla was born on July 9, 1856, in a very small village called Smiljan, in the province of Lika, Croatia. You may not know who this man is, but he invented the theories of electricity we use today.

Tesla finished his basic schooling in Croatia. He continued his education in the Polytechnic School in Graz and finished at University of Prague. He worked as an Electrical engineer in Germany, Hungary and France before coming to the United States in 1884 as an immigrant. When Tesla arrived in New York, he quickly obtained a job with Thomas Edison. Tesla worked for Edison for many years until finally there differences in methods separated the two men in 1885. There two main differences were that Edison believed that DC (Direct Current) was the power of the future. Tesla had been working on the AC (Alternating Current) power we have today. After the Tesla left Edison’s lab, George Westinghouse, founder of the Westinghouse Electric Company, bought patent rights to Tesla’s system of alternating-current.

The Life of Nikola Tesla – Intro

July 10th, 2009 Posted in News | No Comments »

It is not my purpose to claim to know all the wonders of the life of this great man who is acknowledged as one of the great inventors of all time. Those who give him that kind of acknowledgement on TV or elsewhere are not telling the whole story. There are secret projects underway that he was involved with. HAARP is just one example; it is an extension of his radio antennae that he spent a fortune trying to develop. These technologies are potentially able to destroy all life on earth; as they are kept by war-mongers and those who might leave earth for a while and then return to take over and start anew. Or maybe it will simply be a case of successful social engineering as the mind control uses get ramped out on space platforms to accentuate the ground carrier thought cloning already done by the likes of Michael Persinger. There was a time when Tesla was hood-winked by the power elite and despite him being a good person he was not politically as wise as we all must become if things are to really change.

Michael Jackson Tribute

July 8th, 2009 Posted in News | 1 Comment »

As Mariah Carey began to croon a heart felt rendition of Michael Jackson’s “I’ll be There” I felt a twinge and finally a tear, twelve days following the death of the inescapable icon. I immediately recalled the final show of the first season of “Karaoke Krazy” when my co-host and I sang that song as the final number.

I remember why I chose that song over all others. It was because, as an entertainer, I felt there was no other choice. There are many reasons for this. I began singing when I was two and by the time I was able to see and comprehend television the Jackson Five was beginning to make history. I remember my mother telling me “Michael will be on in half an hour. You better get your bath so you can watch him before you go to bed.” And so began my fascination with the most amazing talent that this earth has ever seen, and may ever will see.
