I live for the day when I can write a $50,000 check and not worry about remembering who I wrote it too!

Of course, this is news. This is the largest drop in personal popularity of a former major figure in US politics since 1992. Edwards' popularity has imploded and he is now surrounded by a tiny rump of wide-eyed true-believers and zealots oblivious to the fact that he has betrayed his long-suffering wife. A very sad story, indeed, but definitely news.

How many of you have already forgotten the first article? Please don't!
Someone, i.e. governor, Bev Perdue must take a stand and listen to the silenced voices of honest working people,it's time for change.Ray Mitchell and his henchmen need to be held accountable for their actions. It is incorrect to say 3 out of 4 people are awaiting Mr.Vanessen's return.Why not ask the inspectors and the office staff.That's if they have not been gagged.It's 3-4 people who do not want him back due to improprieties, lies and deceptive tactics to get him out. How awkward would that be? They've been told to re-employ this individual,but won't due to office politics. If Douglas Vanessen was guilty of not reprimanding certain inspectors, then what happened to their supervisors? They were promoted! Sounds like another CEO rip off scheme with our nation's largest banks.Office politics! Ray Mitchell used this same lame and tired excuse to put his puppets in place, including Joyce Lippard.She down grades schools that does not meet her standard, socio-economic standards that is and was flown on Mitchell's private plane to grade, inspect and open one of Mitchell's family salons.Which was allegedly, already opened illegally.They fired an
inspector without warning or reprimands after 20 years of service, while he mother lay dying on her death bed. I understand that North Carolina is a hire-at-will,fire-at-will state, but do not abuse your employees.This is why workplace violence is on the rise. The work of inspectors were constantly undermined and unappreciated, e.g.at a public hearing,one board
cried as a habitual offender,defended her reasons for allowing an unlicensed individuals to work in her shop.This is not to be tolerated.All
cosmetologist are educated to the process.There is no reason why the executive directors position or any other position should be held by cosmetologist. The office is there to implement the policies and laws according to N.C.State Board of Cosmetics Art Examiners.The problems happens when you have the chairman and his henchmen trying to micromanage the inspectors, office staff and manipulating laws with the aid of his personal attorney. It is time for rules to be amended and implemented.The chairman should not be a school or salon owner.This brings about conflict of interest.There should be a manicurist and esthetician on the board to cover all aspects of the industry.Laws were passed,cosmetologists can perform all like duties of those named above. Although,cosmetologists are not required to complete the same amount of school hours as those who are licensees. Wake up call! This industry is operating under one mandate only! Public Safety!!! Our clients come first! Proper licensing and operating under competency!This industry is not to be used for personal gain and intimidation of staff should not be tolerated.

I wonder what's happening while the public is continuously diverted to thinking about these kinds of subjects by the press. It's like bad soap opera we can't turn off. What were we thinking about all the years when Republicans were holding Congressional tea parties dumping the Glass-Stegall Act of 1933 "getting rid of big govt." (government oversignt of investment houses and banking) during the presidency of Ronald Reagan and beyond, when a series of acts of Congress culminating with the passage of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act in 1999 at which time Republican sponsors, Treasury officials, Hank Greenberg of AIG and others, held the grandest old tea party of all, toasting to the inscription on a cake reading "50 years of Glass-Stegall R.I.P.", thus enabling GROPE (the Greatest Robbery of the People Ever) to be set in motion as $$$,$$$,$$$,$$$$s of good life frosting we'd grown accustomed to be skimmed off by the robber barons of investment houses, Texas builders via inflated housing sucking upfront mortgage money out of lenders, no bid contracts to preferred companies in Iraq, etc., leaving the people eating stale cake crumbs.

I hope Elizabeth survives cancer and her children have many good days in a normal childhood. Personally, I'm very tired of the Edwards and don't see them as the nobility that apparently this paper makes them out to be.

maybe some tube tieing on females at age 14? sounds like a viable option along with vasectomies...the tubes can be untied upon marriage of course.
