What’s more, that 14.4 million increase in jobs is measured against when the job market hit rock bottom in February 2010. If you compare the current number of jobs to the previous jobs peak in January 2008 — which is how job growth is normally measured — the number of private-sector jobs has increased just 5.6 million.

During the past several years, the body mass index (BMI), which is a ratio of an individual’s height and weight, has become a measurement of whether a person is considered healthy. Many companies in the United States use their employees’ BMIs as a factor in determining workers’ healthcare costs.
A person’s body mass index (BMI), once considered an indicator of high body fatness and overall health, isn’t such a good indicator of those things after all, according to a recent study published in the Annals of Internal Medicine. Or at least it isn’t without some added context that only the old reliable waistline tape measure can provide, according to North Jersey doctors.

Last Thursday afternoon a number of anonymous chalk messages appeared on campus. But because these chalk messages read “#Stop Islam” and “Trump 2016,” these innocuous messages elicited 911 calls and apology from the president of the university. Apparently such statements constitute “hate speech.”
The University of Michigan is conducting a study on male engineering students to determine whether their unconscious biases—microaggressions—are driving women out of the field. The study is funded via the National Science Foundation, which means taxpayers coughed up more than $500,000 for it.

On Monday, it was revealed that the TSA had paid $1.4 million for an app that points an arrow either to the left or to the right. Chris Pacia, a programmer, posted a video on YouTube showing how it’s possible to code an identical app in 10 minutes for about $10 worth of labor.
Requests involving more than 500 such devices streamed into the bureau’s Computer Analysis Response Team and the agency’s Regional Computer Forensic Laboratory programs during a four-month period beginning last October, two months before agents seized Farook’s device in the aftermath of the mass shooting that left 14 dead, according to the FBI.
GapKids has apologized profusely and vowed to change an advertisement for its Ellen DeGeneres-branded kids clothing line after a small but vocal group of critics stormed social media to condemn an image showing a tall white girl resting her arm atop a shorter black girl’s head.
Other people are speaking out in defense of the ad photo. It turns out the two girls in the photo are sisters — daughters of actress Brooke Smith — and that Gap previously published a non-controversial ad with the same pose — except with the races reversed.

If you’ve ever tried to navigate the red tape of airline complaints (say, tried to get reimbursement for lost luggage) then you know how excruciating and hopeless that process can be.

For $40 an hour (plus expenses), she will be a mom without the judgment, collar straightening, or nagging a real mom might engage in. But she will offer to do any number of mom-like things, such as cooking, sewing on a button, or just listening as a client works through an issue.
The Department of Justice has dropped its case against Apple. After over a month of court motions, congressional hearings and public fights over circumventing the security of the iPhone 5C used by San Bernardino shooter Syed Rizwan Farook, the government has decided it doesn’t need Apple after all. Instead, the third party brought in to break Apple’s encryption has been successful according to court documents.
Warner Bros. on Monday revised down the film’s weekend gross by $4 million, lowering it from the Sunday estimate of $170.1 million to $166.1 million. Such corrections are common, though the difference for “Batman v Superman” was slightly more than normal and had an effect on the film’s place in the record books.
The incident occurred only a few weeks after the men had received refugee status. They applied for the status back in August and October, telling the Immigration Bureau of Japan that they did not want to return to Turkey due to “problems that exist between relatives.”
Analysis of the smoke from conventional cigarettes showed that the mainstream cigarette smoke delivered approximately 1500 times more harmful and potentially harmful constituents (HPHCs) tested when compared to e-cigarette aerosol or to puffing room air. The deliveries of HPHCs tested for these e-cigarette products were similar to the study air blanks rather than to deliveries from conventional cigarettes; no significant contribution of cigarette smoke HPHCs from any of the compound classes tested was found for the e-cigarettes. Thus, the results of this study support previous researchers’ discussion of e-cigarette products’ potential for reduced exposure compared to cigarette smoke.
When I spoke to David Peyton, one of the study’s authors, he insisted that the study had been mischaracterized. All it was meant to do, he said, was compare the levels of formaldehyde in e-cigarettes versus cigarettes. “It is exceedingly frustrating to me that we are being associated with saying that e-cigarettes are more dangerous than cigarettes,” he added. “That is a fact not in evidence.” Well, maybe.

He’s technically charged with ‘unwanted touching’ which is a questionable charge given that security has the right to ‘touch’ you if you aren’t obeying them, whether you want them to or not. No, technically, he isn’t security, but he is a staff member who has the ability to shield the candidate.
