On goals, fans, walk-ons, legends and Hoosiers - LSJ Blogs: Hey, Joe
MSU coach Tom Izzo said he gradually saw more possibilities for the Spartans as they answered his questions.
That started with junior center Derrick Nix’s offseason push to get in shape.
“What he really did is work his butt off, literally,” Izzo said of Nix. “And took his stomach with him.”
Great quote.

The Work Ethic and U.S. Unemployment
Articles: The Work Ethic and U.S. Unemployment
Quality does not mean technical skills acquired in college classrooms or what is learned on the job.
It refers to basic dispositions required for every job, from ditch-digger to neurosurgeon -- even for sports, --and summarized by the term "work ethic."
Absent these, all the billions in educational spending or tax cuts are pointless.
Here's the discouraging point: in today's social climate, imparting a solid work ethic in those who lack it is exceedingly difficult -- and in some cases, impossible.

Self-Employed Workers vs. Government Workers
Self-Employed Workers vs. Government Workers – A Financial Comparison « Union Watch
In both cases, the annual compensation used for comparison is $70,000, which is the average base salary paid to state and local government employees in California (ref. U.S. Census data for California: State, and Local).
But the impact of benefits paid by the government employer, combined with the impact of mandatory employee contributions (taxes, retirement set-asides, and healthcare costs), yield dramatically different end results in terms of total net compensation.
Both the self-employed worker and the government worker make $70,000 per year.
But to say they make the same amount of money is grossly misleading.

And yet there are a tiny number of bellyachers from the Socialist Workers Party who have decided that they hate the scheme, that it is a ramp for bullying and exploitation, and that they are going to disrupt it in any way they can.
The amazing thing is that they appear to be succeeding.
They have been sitting with their placards in McDonald’s and Tesco, and wailing about “slave labour”.

Two points:
The first being yes, the report was drawn up before the Libyan uprising, however, the fact that the UN is still even considering the report's adoption is ridiculous.
Second, is it really possible the UN can embarrass itself further?
