This time the culprit wasn't the cell phone or the iPod, but rather ironically, the GPS device that is supposed to tell you exactly where to go.

If you have ever used one of those things, take a moment to stop and think about how much it causes you to take your eyes off the road.

That's completely understandable. But then again, nobody wants to end up crippled, or worse.

If you have spent more than a few years on the jobsites, then you probably have a better idea than most as to what constitutes a needlessly dangerous situation on the job. You notice if the scaffolding isnt put together correctly. You notice if there is a danger from falling debris.

Sometimes the general contractors are aware of it too, but are a little too concerned with the bottom line to make the necessary changes.

If you suspect that corners are being cut, but aren't sure, follow this link to the OSHA website. If you do a little research you can probably find out exactly what is being done wrong, and who to contact to make your bosses comply with safety regulations.

You have to wonder what the numbers would look like if they had buckled up.


Take the time to tell your teen drivers that they need to wear their seatbelts at all times, and not just when you happen to be looking.

If you have small children, it wouldnt be a bad idea to sign up. While the NHTSA does a good job in publicizing recalls, sometimes it just doesnt occur to people to check the website with regularity.

They recently asked a judge to fine two former employees that released internal memos in the wake of Hurricane Katrina.


These memos detailed the methods used by State Farm to systematically deny the claims of thousands of Gulf Coast homeowners.


Can you imagine the sort of world we would live in if conscientious employees were afraid of coming forward? Can you imagine what corporations would get away with if they could?

Primarily,
he is supposed to speak about his public and private life.  One of the
issues to be discussed will be concerning his confirmation hearings,
Anita Hill, and the abortion issue.  Thomas has been on the move, speaking at a dedication ceremony in Orlando previously. 

I cannot wait to see this interview which will be aired Sunday night.  What will Justice Thomas say about Anita Hill. 

Any comments?

Stay tuned.
