"The Truth About Today’s Blowout GDP Number"
*"The Truth About Today’s Blowout GDP Number"* by Brian Maher "Today the United States Department of Commerce informs us: Fourth-quarter gross domestic product expanded at an annualized 6.9%. 6.9% is plenty handsome - especially in consideration of Omicron’s omnipresence - and ongoing supply chain delinkages. Third-quarter GDP came in at a far less fulsome 2.3%. And Bloomberg’s survey of economic Wrong Way Charlies had projected a 5.5% Q4 expansion. But numbers can conceal more than they reveal.

Google owns us
Thirty-five years ago, I was librarian of the Veterinary Medicine Library at Ohio State. A great job. By 1991-92 we were just learning about a strange thing called the WWW. Went to workshops where it was demonstrated, learned to write html and I began showing my students. I still remember the day in the late 90s another veterinary medicine librarian, I think she was at the University of Tennessee, said she'd found something new she liked better than Yahoo and I should try it. Google. Today Google owns us. Master of surveillance and manipulation. Now there are about 2 billion websites... read more

Brian Kemp ahead of Democrat Stacey Abrams in an early test of that potential rematch. In a hypothetical race that pits Abrams against Kemp’s primary ... read more

Is the Russian Bumerang Better Than the Stryker?

Is It Time to Get Tough With Russia?
*Dennis Ross, Anna Borshchevskaya* *Ukraine Crisis, Europe* Some will argue that these actions could increase the risk of conflict—and they would be right. With Putin, regrettably, that is the point. President Joe Biden’s recent marathon press conference demonstrated once again that he and Russia’s President Vladimir Putin speak two different languages: Biden speaks of conflict avoidance, and Putin of coercion. While Biden said that a limited Russian incursion into Ukraine would essentially produce a debate among NATO members over how to respond, Putin has defined the agenda by m... read more

Gig Economy Workers Should Make Sure to Check for These Deductions
