Obama signs equal-pay bill

Obama signs equal-pay bill!

I always thought the Lilly Ledbetter case was a sad comment on America. To say that you have to file within 180 days of the FIRST discriminatory paycheck is like saying "we support women's rights, but only for women with ESP!"

Love and Friendship by Emily Bronte

Love is like the wild rose-briar,
Friendship like the holly-tree --
The holly is dark when the rose-briar blooms
But which will bloom most contantly?

The wild-rose briar is sweet in the spring,
Its summer blossoms scent the air;
Yet wait till winter comes again
And who wil call the wild-briar fair?

Then scorn the silly rose-wreath now
And deck thee with the holly's sheen,
That when December blights thy brow
He may still leave thy garland green.
