Rising tide of abortion legislation in state legislatures leads me to believe this will be a key issue in 2020 elections

May 6, 2019

From the Editor— It’s become increasingly common to hear presidential candidates’ positions on Roe v Wade dismissed as a non-issue, arguing that it is “settled law.” [1-4] I’ve often questioned the fundamental premise of this debate — for both sides. We’re talking about a Supreme Court Opinion here. The United States Constitution makes it clear that laws come from the legislative branch. This was also covered in an episode of Schoolhouse Rock as well for those who eschew reading ....

Businesses Can Take Control Of “Suddenly September” With One Calendar That Turns Bottom Lines From Summer To Serious

September 4, 2018

In television, it’s called a “cold open.” Google that term and The Office is likely to show up on the first page of results; maybe more than once. Appropriately. [1] The month of September often feels that way on the calendar. Summertime was that not-exactly-programmed period after credits rolled on the season finale of whatever. A comedy, maybe. Or a cliffhanger. Possibly a really serious series finale. Regardless, then came summer — like a commercial ....
