The Dawning Of The Post-Crisis Entrepreneurship Generation, Here And All Around The World

John Hope Bryant | Posted November 21, 2009 | Business


From civil rights to silver rights.

In my new book LOVE LEADERSHIP: The New Way to Lead in a Fear-Based World, I submit that there are two things in the world, love and fear, and that what we don't love what we fear. Further, I submit that the reason...

Tyranny of the Silent Filibuster

Craig Crawford | Posted November 21, 2009 | Politics


Why doesn't Harry Reid force an old-fashioned filibuster that could make Republicans look silly? Because he can't.

The Senate Majority Leader must get 60 votes to start the health care debate -- which he aims to try tonight -- and he'll need that many again when it comes time to...

NEW YORK (The Borowitz Report) - A homeless man who began shouting at New Yorkers in 1985 said that Oprah Winfrey was the inspiration behind his decision to call it quits in early 2010.

Mad Men: Three Seasons On and Looking Forward

William Bradley | Posted November 21, 2009 | Entertainment


Mad Men's brilliant third season finale earlier this month is still echoing in the mind. And in the culture. January Jones was a game host of Saturday Night Live the following weekend. (Though she didn't make anyone forget Jon Hamm's great hosting gig last year. He is seriously funny.) Secretary...

MJ Rosenberg | Posted November 21, 2009 | World


Last week I met with a young Palestinian from Gaza, Mohammed Omer. He is an award-winning journalist with an incredible story.

After meeting him, I went to his presentation at a bistro in town called "Busboys and Poets" (the coolest place in DC these days).

His presentation blew me away....

Should Insurance Companies Pay For Preventive Care?

Tara Stiles | Posted November 20, 2009 | Living


Should government pay for preventive care? Should insurance companies? This topic has been coming up lately around the studio. We encourage people to come to class frequently to give them the best possible benefits. The once a week Strala class is fine for relaxation, or a fun social activity, but...

The Beck Bash has Worked Wonders--For Beck

Earl Ofari Hutchinson | Posted November 21, 2009 |



Glenn Beck loves every minute of the Beck bash. In recent days he's gotten a rock star mob welcome in South Carolina and Washington. He'd get the same fan mob turnout in dozens of other cities that he chose to travel to. His ratings have soared through the...

Dream of money-bags tonight

David Horton | Posted November 21, 2009 | Politics


All of us who concerned about the future of the planet have misunderestimated the opposition from those who are not. We thought that the flooding of web sites, talk back radio, television chat shows, letters columns in newspapers, blogs, with tens of thousands of mindless repetitions of a few talking...

Oren Moverman delivers with The Messenger

Marshall Fine | Posted November 20, 2009 | Entertainment


It's referred to as "development hell" - that period between when a script is optioned and when it gets a green light - an endless series of notes, meetings and rewrites when the original script falls prey to the whims of all the chefs involved with creating this particular soufflé.

Left, Right & Center: Obama-Geithner Revolt, Sarah Palin, Health Care Update

Huff Radio | Posted November 20, 2009 | Politics


There's a strong feeling that Congress is bucking Obama and isn't being called to task for it. For the first time, Obama's approval ratings are below 50 percent (Gallup poll says) and calls for Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner's resignation are growing louder.

Sarah Palin's managed to suck up a...

Bella DePaulo | Posted November 20, 2009 | Politics


I've been blogging since June of 2006 and have not avoided controversial issues or people. But something I recently posted at Psychology Today, "Sarah Palin's Lies" (now posted in full below), elicited more vitriolic comments and personal e-mails than anything else I've ever written.

Friday Talking Points [102] -- Harry Reid's Glacial Progress Grinds On

Chris Weigant | Posted November 20, 2009 | Politics


Our illustrious (cough, cough) White House press corps showed it could get to the bottom of a story with impressively journalistic and probative skills this week.

Every Day My Heart Gets Broken

Dennis Danziger | Posted November 20, 2009 | Los Angeles


Every day my heart gets broken.

The hurt starts before I step foot onto my campus. I live six blocks from my work site in a diverse, middle-class neighborhood called Mar Vista where two bedroom homes sell for $700,000 and the gentrified two-story jobs go for over a million.
