Komen Foundation Ends Funding for Breast Cancer Screenings After Years of Political Pressure
I am furious about Susan G. Komen cutting off funding for Planned Parenthood. Absolutely furious.
I just made a donation to Planned Parenthood and am urging you to do the same. Please click the link to learn more and consider making a donation to help this valuable organization that is the ONLY source of health care for some of our Young American Women.
PS - Yes, men can go to Planned Parenthood as well for select services.
Meg Myers, “Monster”
Love the vocals, emotion and cello on this.
She’s LA-based. Fiona Apple-ish. Listen. This song is golden as are her other tracks. Spread the word. Follow her Tumblr.
You know, it doesn’t matter how beautiful you are, if you don’t have anything interesting to say, then you’re still boring.
Shirley Manson, Garbage
I am beyond excited for their new album and tour!
Bah.
BAH I say.
You make me throw it all away
My morals left to decay
How many you betray
You’ve taken everything
My head is filled with disease
My skin is begging you please
I’m on my hands and knees
I want so much to believe
Although Apple is now America’s biggest U.S. corporation as measured by market value, it employs only 43,000 people in the United States, a tenth as many as General Motors employed when it was the largest American firm.
Apple does, however, indirectly employ around 700,000 people in its various suppliers. Unfortunately, almost none of those people are in America.
Why does Apple manufacture abroad, and especially in China? As the article explained, it’s not just about low wages. China also derives big advantages from the fact that so much of the supply chain is already there. A former Apple executive explained: “You need a thousand rubber gaskets? That’s the factory next door. You need a million screws? That factory is a block away.”
I could REALLLLLY go for some of this right now. UNFFFFFFFFFFFF
“By supporting what will work, you won’t have to waste energy penalizing what is negative — it will whither from lack of attention.”
My current mantra.
Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat.
I am going through old photos trying to find one from a staff cruise I was on a few years ago… just found these from 2005 and they made me laugh. Taking pictures of myself sitting at a computer wearing Giants gear… not much has changed, eh? I wonder what happened to that hat… lolol

There’s no time to lose, I heard her say
Catch your dreams before they slip away
Dying all the time
Lose your dreams
And you will lose your mind.
Aint life unkind?
Aerosmith - Ain’t That A Bitch
Still find myself coming back to this track year after year. Crazy how some songs just stick with you…
