Some prospective homeowners are particular about the appearance of their Bathrooms and others are not fussy at all. This latter attitude seems a bit strange since nearly all of your guests will see this room at one time or another. And size does matter. No one likes cramped.

Many Americans take for granted that we have a legal protection of our personal privacy. They might be surprised to learn that the US Constitution offers no such specific assurances. Yes, the framers did include a Bill of Rights with related provisions in this area. Among them are... ** privacy of beliefs (1st Amendment) ** privacy of a home against demands that it be used to house soldiers (3rd Amendment) ** privacy of a person and possessions against unreasonable searches (4th Amendment) ** privacy of personally held information... aka the privilege against self-incrimination (5th...

Based on the title of this book, one might get the impression that this could be a preachy or religious in nature. However, it is not intended to be that at all. Rather it is an 'ideas' book which is intended to inform the reader and improve their chances for having a successful marriage. How bad can that be? It will, however, go into some detail about what humanity is and how it came about. I suppose each of us had or does aspire to settling down with the perfect mate, and then building a satisfying life together. If this was not or is not your goal, your time might be better spent in...

Government, in theory, is supposed to provide services that the population is not able to easily supply for themselves. Unfortunately what has happened is that politicians have become so corrupted by the purse strings of corporate America that they are no longer able or willing to serve the people to any great degree. Laws tend to favor the few and ignore the many. This state of affairs has come about because Congresspersons have their own Prime Directive to follow... and that is getting reelected. Fortunately for them, there are so few voters who are paying attention.

I'm going to lump the press into the same category as big business because they walk the walk and talk the talk. Ergo they are indeed big business. In stark contrast to my personal opinion, reporters might imagine themselves as being... -- independent members of the fourth estate (a coined phrase by Edmund Burke during a parliamentary debate in 1792 on the opening up of press reporting in the House of Commons in England) -- guardians against government evils -- purveyors of the truth In reality their reporting more often finds them in the categories of both government collaborators and show...

One of the more interesting aspects of law and justice that I have observed on the legal landscape is that the fox is in charge of the chicken coop. The preponderance of lawyers in government results in laws that suit lawyers and the judges (who are also lawyers) who rule on laws. Curiously, while they occasionally may be involved with prosecuting conflict of interest cases, they don't seem to be aware of their own conflicted system. Or is it that they don't care? Some try to justify the preponderance of lawyers in Congress as appropriate since these are people who are making laws. Using that...

Man can not live by meat alone, or however that saying goes. With that proverb in mind, I have developed or modified recipes in order to follow a meat-exclusionary theme. Where a recipe calls for bacon, just substitute turkey bacon. Of course, I had to include some interesting desert and drink recipes to round out an evening meal. To be clear, I have no association with any of the brand name products that are recommended in this cookbook. They are simply my personal preferences.
