QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Nov 18, 2007 -> 12:57 AM) Does it matter? Let's assume that the Pres. had good intentions. Let's assume (as Tex mentioned) that it was protective, fatherly type advice. Let's assume someone made some kind of crass comment to the Pres. about Mary and he's just trying to look out for her. Let's also assume that this promotion had been in the works for a while. The situation was still mishandled. She's gonna stay for now, take the promotion, the new title, the raise, fatten up her resume and look for something else in the spring. They're also going to put her through some kind of courses and get her certified, so she's gonna use them for that too. Therte isn't a company on the planet that hasn't made an error in HR. Serious mistakes should be dealt with legally and to the fullest extent possible. Others are better non calls, no harm, no foul. It's her call. I still think they were trying to help and fumbled big time.

QUOTE(Alpha Dog @ Nov 17, 2007 -> 11:18 AM) Is it a deterant only if it deters EVERYBODY? If this shooting stops 50 people from committing similar, or worse, acts, was it a deterant? The death penalty at least deters one, but we don't quite know how many others are swayed by the fact they could die by committing certain acts in Texas. We'll see if there is a statistically significant drop in burglaries in Texas for 2008.

Side bar YAS. I immediatly thought of Steppenwolf's The Pusher, would that be a legal pick? Though it would make for a tough follow up

Good for Kenny. If he has already settled on a team, I don't see a need for someone like Boras. I think Boras is best for a mid career guy.

In Texas, if you are playing Football or Basketball, you will be taking "Football" or "Basketball" as your PE choice. Most of the other sports are the same thing. You will also be playing in "community leagues" and all sorts of quasi-legal ways to keep you playing year round. There is no pressure, like when I was in school, to letter in three sports.

You would also have to determine how often the letter K appears versus the other letters. To use an extreme example, if there were only 25 players with a "K name" and 23 where in the top 1,000 of all time, that would probably be significant. So it is more than just looking at the averages. If K represents 2% of the players and they are 5% of the strikeouts, that is significant.

I'm not certain why we're discussing self defense, Texas Law allows you to defend your property. That's why our crime rate is so much lower. Break into the home and you could get shot. I'm certain after these guys were killed, no one will be breaking into homes in Texas. The death penalty was served.

Most organizations I've been in the males dressed for their position, which becomes more conservative as you become promoted. The females also. Cynic says: Let's promote her before she sues us for harrassment. Optimist says: They are grooming her for the promotion and really care abuot her success. Time will tell.
