1960s Television Imagine yourself sitting in the living room with your family. It’s the mid 1960s, and you’re flipping through channels until you reach CNN, where John F. Kennedy is standing at his post, giving a speech, with Nixon right behind him. You are watching the very first televised presidential debate. You decide to watch something else, so you click the remote, and Fred Flintstone appears on the screen, living life in the town of Bedrock. On comes an ad about toothbrushes, then…

September 24th, 2015 I was off to my first Introductory Pharmacy Practice Experience (IPPE) site. This would be my first behind the counter experience in a pharmacy.

Not only did Mr. Walton build store on the understanding of bring the best prices to the…

And those three things are going to carry on forever.” Jimmy V argues that if you think, love, and laugh we will live full happy days. He targets the audience by using…

The hospital is bending the rules for the Kardashians as they visit Lamar Odom, Radar Online Oct. 15, 2015 reports. There is a no filming policy in the hospital, which includes the use of cellphones. However, Khloe believes she is above the hospital rules and can do as she pleases. Those rules apply to the other people, not to her or her family. It seems that the hospital is slow in enforcing their own rules, as they had to have many complaints from other patients wanting the Kardashian circus…

it. In his argument with jones he had paid no attention to the white scenery around him that was slowly filling up with black profiles. Over a hundred of them had surrounded Underhill, his children and jones. They all possessed hungry eyes, eyes of vampires. Jones grinned, and as he did the figures came closer, watching as Underhill spun around to take in the view. “You didn’t think I spent all that time watching your house because I wanted proof?” he scoffed, “No. I spent my time seeking…

Gregory D: Client shared with the group that he knows Mike S. already and has gotten a job offer at Ametek where he will be machining metal parts starting at 18.00/hour. Ultimately, he would like to get rehired at Deka and mentions that 6/16/18 will be 2 years since he was let go and can then reapply.

Pay Servers A Livable Wage The U.S.'s minimum tipped wage has been frozen since 1991. The minimum wage for non-tipped employees has almost doubled, during the same time. This is a good reason for a wage increase. I have never been a server myself, because of the federal tipped minimum wage.
