The Costs of Becoming A Journalist

It doesn’t work with me. I know people who work at a lot of the big papers, and the stories they tell aren’t any different from mine. It’s all about people, and procedures, and conflicting interests.

You might not notice at all until you find your bank account empty. Or, you may receive a notice from the IRS denying your tax refund because it has already been paid – or worse, asking why you didn’t report ALL of your income for the year. [more...]

Women Issues – The Info You Must Learn
There is no need to prove that women and men go through depression in totally different ways. Depression is a great stress to both men and women and we can’t claim that one of the sexes suffers more during a depression, we can claim only that the way they feel and perceive things is definitely not the same. In this article I will stop on the woman’s depression. Unfortunately, regardless of how either men of women feel themselves during depression, women are still twice as likely to fall victims to it.
