Stop B*sh from using nukes.

This Iran thing has to stop before its too late. Specifically, B*sh has to be stopped. If it were anyone else, it would be inconcievable that he would actually be considering using nuclear weapons. He's even comparing the Iranian PM to Hitler, which is funny because if any world leader is the second coming of the moustachioed one, it's B*sh. But to be seriously talking about using nukes to attack a country to prevent them from using nukes is just such a perverted manner of thinking that it proves he's insane. Apparently everyone's forgotten just what a fantastically successful job he did with Iraq, and now he's touting the exact same Blitzkrieg idea for Iran, only with nukes. The fact that he went on TV and specifically denied it is even worse - that means not only is he considering it, but he has the targets picked out and the first strike date "pencilled in".
I don't know why everyone is so paranoid about Iran - they're at least 10 years from having a nuclear weapon of any description. So they've refined atomic material to 2%. Big whup. With a couple of day's tuition, most high-school kids could do that yet we're not worried about high schools churning out atomic weapons. B*sh is trying to play the exact same card he played with Iraq - trying to make people panic into supporting him, only this time it's different. He seriously believes the use of "tactical" nukes is a good idea. So not only is America now in the business of invading other countries on a lie and occupying them, it's leader is now in favour of using the exact thing he claims to be against - weapons of mass distruction.
In terms of parallels, this pretty much brings the US to where Germany was in 1939 - invading countries and wiping out populations with large-scale weapons.

The non-separation of the LDS church and Utah state.

Look - I understand that mormons think gays are somehow evil, subhumans. I understand that the LDS won't tolerate gays, doesn't like them and thus won't marry them. But for local government to overturn a supreme court ruling about gay marriage is taking it too far. This is religious persecution on a par with the dark ages. The church doesn't like gays, so it leans on its members in government to do everything possible to prevent them from having the basic rights afforded other couples who want to marry. In other words, the LDS church is forcing it's (wrong) opinion about the LGBT community on everyone, via state and local laws that it has had passed and enforced on its behalf. Why should non-religious people be forced to abide by the opinion of a religious cult that they have no affiliation with? Apart from anything else, the uber-conservatives in this state are always the first ones to bitch when something even slightly unconstitutional happens, yet here they are r

Employees don't want much

I'm sitting looking at my company's internal 'learning' system this morning - hundreds of online courses that are available to all employees, some of which we're mandated to take. I'm not sure why the rest of them exist. We certainly don't have time to do any of the courses, and for the average employee, they hold no relevance to what we do, or want to do in our day-to-day jobs. I for one just want to be assigned tasks, and then be left alone. I don't need to do hazardous material training - my job doesn't involve hazardous materials. I don't need micromanagement. I don't need all the various efficiency and ethics courses that are available because I have common sense. I don't need to be instructed how to use the email system, nor how 'just in time' manufacturing is good for the company (it has no bearing on our division). Ok I understand all of this is corporate C-Y-A but so many of these things are just inconsequential to us. On
