Featured Link - BuzGate.org
Posted on September 09, 2008The oddly-named BuzGate.org is a Web site that provides information and links to free resources for small businesses. There is some good information here, but you do have to wade through a lot of buzz-word-filled vebiage to get to it....
Featured Link - WorldOfGood.com
Posted on September 08, 2008I'm not quite sure what to make of this site yet, but I think their intentions are admirable. eBay has spun off a separate site called WorldOfGood, supposedly for people to sell earth-friendly or otherwise well-intentioned products. It's worth a...
Featured Link - HandicappedFraud.org

Texas Cheerleading Accidents May Fly Under The Radar
Posted on September 05, 2008I've written before about the dangers of cheerleading in high schools. It's the leading cause of sports injuries to young girls. Now the Dallas Morning News has a new story about this. The article is lengthy and well-written. I recommend...

More Motorcycles Equal More Motorcycle Collisions
Posted on September 02, 2008Here's an obvious conclusion from a Dallas Morning News article about motorcycle collisons: the more motorcycles that are on the streets, the more motorcycles that will be involved in collisions. This statistic is showing up in the Dallas suburb of...
Featured Link - Rushmore Drive.com
Posted on August 30, 2008Is Google too White? That's the question posed by new search engine RushmoreDrive. The developers of this site say that Google is unconsciously biased in favor of sites sought out by Whites, and not those searched for by Blacks. So...

Restaurant Employees Lose Health Insurance, Even For Past Bills

Parents, Consider The Dangers Of Cheerleading
Posted on August 16, 2008A story in the Dallas Morning News about the dangers of high school cheerleading certainly surprised me, and I imagine that many other parents will be equally surprised and dismayed. The article shows that cheerleading accounted for two-thirds of sports-related...
