   Sad thing is - if this is going on at Cisco imagine what goes on in the farm fields, the restaurants, the hotels, and the rest of the lowest paying jobs in this country. If it takes YEARS to build a case against giant company how many littl

   After legalizing it in Vegas I've noticed a constant lingering smell from a couple neighbors in my neighborhood. Its gotten to the point where its getting to be annoying cause most of them don't want to make their own house smell

   Chalk me up for another anecdotal "I saw it too" - You would think the upper admins would notice someone on the books for 6-8 years but they didn't do anything. Its a culture that higher education departments perpetuate.

   You'd be surprised - your not seeing the informatics side I'm guessing - they take all the data from the claims system and use it to check if a patient is over 55 and has had a colonoscopy, or female and over 45 and hasn't ha

   ROBERTS, C. J., GINSBURG, BREYER, SOTOMAYOR, and KAGAN agreed. KENNEDY THOMAS ALITO and GORSUCH dissented. The mix of the court on this particular issue is amazing to me. Roberts is turning out to be one of the most balanced judges since K
