10.11.2009From: photoposter
It has become evident to many that our current post secondary education system is not able to fulfill the immediate needs of the large number of recently unemployed and new entries to the job market.
Those without an income don't want more irrelevant schooling, that supports the vocational schooling industry, they need jobs.
Many would like to see support for a proposal that implements an apprenticeship system with heavy government assistance to the employer and employee.
Such a system can go a long way to solving the many facets of unemployment. While this eases the amount of money going into the assistance, it puts people back to work immediately, creates employment taxes and gives people the dignity of working and retraining instead of just receiving unemployment.

06.11.2009Stimulus Package
I was watching the evening news tonight and they said unemployment has reached 16,000,000 workers who are out of a job in this country. What happened to the stimulus package. Do we need another package? I figured since EC.Biz has a Blog lets get some input from it.

I have a friend that has to take a drug test at his job once a month. His job is to clean the filthy dirty linens at a local hospital. He doesn't mind taking the test but commented why shouldn't people on welfare have to take a drug test? If you have a comment please submit it via the feedback tab.

I will have the system randomly select one person that has registered a chance to win the cash. The name selected must make at least 20 clicks with in the next 7 days to qualify. If your name is selected and you have not made the 20 clicks then your out and I will start the contest over again.

12.05.2008Congratulations
Congratulations Ed Casciato, Whitey Maietta and Kathy Woloszyn 1st., 2nd. and 3rd. place winners in the $100 eBay gift Certificate Clicking Contest. We needed a tie breaker to determine the places. We had 6 players tied for the contest. The system generated one banner and the 3 winners all clicked that banner. The first place winner had multiple clicks on the banner so I split 2nd and 3rd place value award. Sorry to the 3 players that missed the generated banner.
We had our 100th playing member join this week. I never dreamed that we would get that many members in just 7 weeks time. To Celebrate this milestone I'm planning a $500 Cash Extravaganza give away. I will be announcing the rules this coming weekend. To qualify for this great prize all members must have at least 15 NEW clicks on banners ending this coming Sunday. That's just ONE visit to http://www.ellwoodcity.biz making the maximum daily clicks.
Banners are selling very good and I want to share this with all of the game players.

24.03.2008TRIPLE FLYBYTRIPLE FLYBY ALERT: Space shuttle Endeavour has undocked from the International Space Station and the two spaceships are now orbiting Earth in tandem. This sets the stage for a series of rare *triple* flybys, which many sky watchers will be able to observe on Tuesday, March 25th. It's a triple because three spacecraft are involved. First to appear is the European Space Agency's Jules Verne cargo carrier flying 2000 kilometers ahead of the ISS-Endeavour combo. Jules Verne is about as bright as a 1st magnitude star. Four minutes later, and even brighter, the space shuttle and space station follow Jules Verne across the starry sky--a spectacular sight!
Click on the Satellite Flybys banner on the left side of the grid for local viewing time.
I watched the double flyby on Saturday and it was incredible.
