If they want to live like they lived in Afghanistan... and kill, beat, rape their women...maybe they should live in their own countries!! Obviously these pathetic and coward men have no reason to live in our country!! If you don't know how to live a better life...don't come here, stay in the hole you came from!!

The reason TFA is so popular is it as seen as an elite entrance program for a lifetime of milking the government cow. A few years ago, French grad school grads were polled and asked what their career ambitions were. 94% (!!!) said to be a government employee. Why not? Above market pay, above market benefits, and below market work levels. Its getting the same here. To be a government employee Read More...]]> http://www.dekthai-faidee.com/my-take-on-naomi-schaefer-riley-the-weekend-interview-with-wendy-kopp/feed/ 0 http://www.dekthai-faidee.com/criticism-on-u.s.-steps-up-probe-of-tech-hiring/ http://www.dekthai-faidee.com/criticism-on-u.s.-steps-up-probe-of-tech-hiring/#comments Thu, 15 Mar 2012 20:31:48 +0000 admin http://www.dekthai-faidee.com/criticism-on-u.s.-steps-up-probe-of-tech-hiring/ Three answers: First, those salaries exist mostly in places like Silicon Gulch, where the cost of living is on a similar scale. Lots of dollars, but still not enough to support an upscale lifestyle. Second, there are a few individuals who actually do know more about some narrow and arcane specialty than anyone else on the planet. Finally, they aren't posted because many of those salaries are paid specifically to keep essential Read More...]]> http://www.dekthai-faidee.com/criticism-on-u.s.-steps-up-probe-of-tech-hiring/feed/ 0 http://www.dekthai-faidee.com/opinion-on-president-dangerfield/ http://www.dekthai-faidee.com/opinion-on-president-dangerfield/#comments Thu, 15 Mar 2012 20:27:17 +0000 admin http://www.dekthai-faidee.com/opinion-on-president-dangerfield/ Please note that your comment on the debt ceiling increases during the Reagan era is disingenuous. Reagan sent a request to congress to increase the ceiling and congress did so, without any debate. Therefore he could afford to make a small request, knowing that if he needed more, there would be no consequences or rejection. Obama has made the request and congress did not oblige. He is therefore correct in assuming that if the increase Read More...]]> http://www.dekthai-faidee.com/opinion-on-president-dangerfield/feed/ 0 http://www.dekthai-faidee.com/analysis-on-vietnam-plans-live/ http://www.dekthai-faidee.com/analysis-on-vietnam-plans-live/#comments Thu, 15 Mar 2012 19:39:15 +0000 admin http://www.dekthai-faidee.com/analysis-on-vietnam-plans-live/ The last time Vietnan seriously flexed its calf muscle before China is in late 1970s when Soviet Union stands behilnd it. Later both nations went to a war the result of which is in controversy about who wins it. This time Vietnam again is flexing muscle before China, but without a power standing behind it. In light of this I would predict that it is a diplomatic demonstration of anger towards China excessive behaviors and Vietnam Read More...]]> http://www.dekthai-faidee.com/analysis-on-vietnam-plans-live/feed/ 0 http://www.dekthai-faidee.com/my-view-on-start/ http://www.dekthai-faidee.com/my-view-on-start/#comments Thu, 15 Mar 2012 19:32:02 +0000 admin http://www.dekthai-faidee.com/my-view-on-start/ Guy, they want to take things one step at a time. First they need to find what works to become a significant search engine. Taking down the deep pockets of Google and Microsoft, while certainly something the founders would like to do, is not practical as an initial goal. Besides getting people to try the site, I see the biggest challenge of their approach as keeping the 100,000 sets of search results up to date.

The FDA is required by law to determine whether drugs are safe AND EFFECTIVE for the indications the manufacturer wants to market them for. The FDA couldn't approve Avastin for its breast cancer indication is that it wasn't effective language. That's the law. (It's not safe either.

I encourage you to look at the video that accompanies this article in which a few surrogates speak about their situation.

Unfortunately, in the end the shareholders are the ones that pay for fatigue management's corrupt practices. Between the huge bonuses being paid out and the now half billion fine, plus all the other payout from litigation, my shareholder value was just eroded.
