What are Mike Huckabee’s chances of making it into the White House? Rather slim I assume, so you cannot blame him for trying to stir up some controversy and get into the Newspapers.

“What do you get for the man who has everything?” is the question on most women’s minds during the Christmas shopping season. It always seems like it is harder to buy for those closest to us. All to often, wives resort to the old standbys: a tie or aftershave.

Take some time, plan ahead and think outside the box. Think about your hubby’s h

There are days that my mind is so bombarded by facts, images, and ideas that I fear my head will explode, just like in the movie “Scanners”! I’m overloaded with tons of useless information every day: radio, TV, internet, newspapers, magazines, E-Mail, you name it: I’m constantly being bombarded by bits and bytes that I can’t even begin to pro

Now Diana Wolozin is asked why would she call Olsen before she called 911. I have never found a dead person but I can understand Diana Wolozin for making a bad decision. It must be sh

But there's a myth about what journalists actually do which seems to be carried across many of the debates, and it's an important one. And it means that many of the debates aren'
