If you own a portable generator, you must have a working carbon monoxide alarm on every level of your home. Generators should be run outdoors at least 20 feet away from your home. Many people do not realize how much carbon monoxide one generator can produce - it's as much as *hundreds* of cars.

Another reason to support unions. In my journalism career, I was hired in at steps and pay grades I should have been. Can’t let perfect stand in the way of better and making progress toward best.
Because of the pay gap, women have lost out on more than $60 trillion in wages since 1967.

Yes, trillion.

On an hourly basis, women were paid 18.0% less on average than men in 2024.

We must ensure fair wages for all.

They gave up their dignity and bent the knee, betraying both their customers and their country.

And they did it for money. Money they had no need for.

The result? They lost billions and billions.

The worst deal with the devil ever.

#OTD in 1962, the U.S. Navy SEALs were established. The SEALs were an extension of the Underwater Demolition Teams created in 1943 after submerged obstacles had caused heavy casualties during the amphibous assault on Tarawa. Now, even sea lion pups want to be SEALs.
