There's always been that one quiet kid in the back of the class. Perhaps they're a little shy, branded a misfit - maybe they dress a little funny... but they're always watching, always listening. That's me. I'm that kid. I've learned much by playing the role of an avid observer, and feel I must break my silence if only for a spell. Sitcoms have thrived on the silly subject matter of telephone support for decades, exposing the most despicable...

Blessed with parents who pushed and encouraged him- and accompanied by blazing optimism as his constant companion- Mullikin not only overcame his physical handicap through hard work and perseverance, but went on to serve as a reservist attached to the United States Army Special Operations Command, attain and compete as a Bl...

Nearly 4 million manufacturing jobs have been lost in the United States since 1998. And yet, politicians in Washington still pay little more than lip service to the issues threatening the domestic manufacturing sector, while working class communities wither on the vine.
