Verizon's iPhone - A quick reality check -The Kim Komando Radio Show
"After years of speculation, Apple's popular iPhone is finally coming to Verizon's network.
But it’s not for everyone.
There are some very compelling reasons not to buy the Verizon iPhone yet.
We can set our watches by Apple's update schedule. Apple should announce the iPhone 5 in June.
So, the current iPhone will be outdated in just a few months.
And upgrading to the iPhone 5 will be costly."

State workers should be required to cover the costs of expanded health care coverage detnews.com The Detroit News
"But Michigan can't afford roommate benefits that allow just about anyone to be added to health care policies.
A better approach would be to take another whack at modifying the law.
In the meantime, the cost of this giveaway should come from the state employees who want to add more people in their household to their employee benefit packages"

WOLF: Tawdry details of Obamacare - Washington Times
"If you would like to know what the White House really thinks of Obamacare, there’s an easy way.
Look past its press releases.
Ignore its promises.
Forget its talking points.
Instead, simply witness for yourself the outrageous way the White House protects its best friends from Obamacare."

My speedy smart phone!
Wow!
I was never satisfied with my Verizon-Samsung Omnia 2 phone and just went to the VZ site and saw a new software update.
AMAZING!
It's like I have a new phone!
If you have a smart phone, check out your carrier's site to see if there is an update.

GOP State Convention bummer - Lt Gov Brian Calley has sour grapes
theblogprof: GOP State Convention bummer - Lt Gov Brian Calley has sour grapes
"So Brian Calley makes a speech at the State Convention today.
I’ll set aside for now that his speech was almost identical to the one that he gave in August, a fact that did not impress anyone irrespective of the speech’s quality.
But it’s how he started his speech that raised an eyebrow.
I was certainly not alone.
I’m paraphrasing here, but Calley started out by saying “Good morning.
This is is a better morning than the last time we met. I don’t think anyone is running against me here.”
It was a slight at the tea party that 1) nominated their own candidate for Lt Gov at the GOP Convention in August, and 2) turned the state red.
Not classy, but apparently Calley."
Anyone in Michigan state government who still doesn't get it is gonna "get it" soon.

Snyder's tax plan hits big firms hardest
Snyder's tax plan hits big firms hardest detnews.com The Detroit News
"Gov. Rick Snyder wants to kill the Michigan Business Tax and replace it with a 6 percent corporate income tax that would be applied mostly to larger Michigan companies and include an exemption for small businesses, according to a draft law obtained Friday by The Detroit News.
The proposal got mostly positive reviews from employers, but certain companies such as large manufacturers and insurance companies say they could face a tax increase under the plan.
At the same time, Snyder is expected to significantly cut back targeted tax credits such as those received by the film industry and paid to industry by the Michigan Economic Growth Authority"
A VERY good start!
