Breaking...

Here is more on the story of an Erie man who was killed when a bomb that was strapped around his neck exploded, killing him. I mentioned this a few months ago and the investigation has been going on for a few years. Its a crazy story, you just have to read it.

Wow, the entire series of notes (some heavily edited) given to Brian Wells and photos of the objects used, including the bomb, can be found here!

I agree with this editorial on wages for home-health aides, but they are not the only ones who deserve to receive at least minimum wage. Right now, businesses are not required to pay the new $7.15 minimum to part-time workers. Also, small businesses are not required to meet the minimum, for the immediate future. Aren't part-time employees and employees of small businesses entitled to the same privileges as everyone else? This is a perfect example of legislation favoring business and not the working men and women of this country who struggle to overcome poverty.

Oh, the irony...
