America’s inner cities need repair and a major overhaul. Some of the problems require a focus on safety, jobs and schools, certainly not race.
Why are we wondering how to stop it? Jobs, education and public safety. Computer hardware, automation, and software can replace people. This is why education is the obvious key, just ask anyone who’s worked in automotive manufacturing or as a travel agent.
Spring brings blooming flowers, balmier temperatures and something else not so pleasant: Tornadoes.
Tornadoes are some of the toughest weather Mother Nature dishes out. They come with little warning and carry strong winds that can cause serious damage.

On a sweltering day in May and almost 500 years ago today, Hernando de Soto and his army of over 600 soldiers splashed ashore in Tampa Bay.
They had been ordered by King Charles V of Spain to sail to La Florida and "conquer, populate and pacify" the land.But this expedition would never yield the gold and treasure these men so desperately sought.

A somewhat difficult habit to break for some, but folks using beauty products like nail polish, nail polish removers, artificial nails, adhesives, and disinfectants should know that these can be toxic.
