Half of working age adults in this Illinois town unemployed

clipper's remarks: What this politically correct piece doesn't say is the town is probably mostly black.

So what does this tell you? Obama sprung from Illinois politics. Beyond any doubt, this town likely voted for Obama.

How do you like that "hope and change" Pembroke citizens??

Welcome to Obama's Amerika.

If you think the recession has hit hard where you live, consider the little Northern Illinois town where almost half the working age adults are out of work. It's called Pembroke. CBS2's Mike Parker reports.

Imagine a community so deep in the hole, the government has fired the police force and closed two of three elementary schools. It's happened in Pembroke, a little town of some 3,000 in eastern Kankakee County near the Indiana border.

It's a town where these days, many folks don't rebuild after a fire. The charred remains just sit there.

Payton says the unemployment rate is 46 percent and the median income is just half the statewide figure. Payton says his goal right now is to create jobs in a place where businesses don't seem to want to come, and the young people mostly want to leave.

With Jobs Scant, MBAs Consider Startups

Landing a banking or consulting job used to be the main reason for going to B-school. These days, it's just as likely to be launching a business

Business schools have quietly become the back door to starting your own business. Once considered merely the hallway to a high-salaried career with an investment banking or consulting firm, business schools are now drawing attention from those tinkering in their garages and hoping to find the next big thing. Through virtual and traditional business incubators, business schools are helping students launch startups with everything from fund-raising and networking to finding office space and interns.

A giant composite image of the Milky Way's center has been taken by NASA's three Great Observatories — the Hubble and Spitzer Space Telescopes and the Chandra X-ray Observatory.

The image, unveiled by NASA today, was made to celebrate the International Year of Astronomy, 400 years after Galileo first turned his telescope to the heavens.

The pictures of our galaxy's hub combines a near-infrared view from the Hubble Space Telescope, an infrared view from the Spitzer Space Telescope, and an X-ray view from the Chandra X-ray Observatory into one multiwavelength picture.

Experts from all three observatories carefully assembled the final image from large mosaic photo surveys taken by each telescope. This composite image provides one of the most detailed views ever of our galaxy's mysterious core.

More than 150 planetariums, museums, nature centers, libraries, and schools across the country have received a giant 6-foot-by-3-foot print of the stunning image.

What to Look for When Choosing a Massage Therapy School

After you learn how to become a massage therapist and are looking to enroll in a massage therapy school, there are a number of things that you need to consider before you making your final decision, as the tuition for massage therapy school can be quite high.

There are a large number of massage therapy schools in the country but not many of them provide a certificate or are accredited. Make sure that the institute you enroll in provides you a certificate at the completion of the course and that the institute is recognized by a well established university or educational organization.

You also need to consider the school’s curriculum to see if it works with your schedule. If you are currently working full-time during the day, you will need to look for a school that offers evening and weekend classes. Some schools only offer classes during the day, which would conflict with your work schedule if you are planning on going to classes while still working.

Two Cents: Unlucky in some schools

By Robert Holland

This Friday is 2009's third Friday the 13th -- a day so foreboding to some that they curtail activity to duck misfortune. No other year in this decade has brought more than two F13s.

But students, parents, and teachers whose fortunes are closely tied to government-run schools may well conclude that Friday the 13th is a recurring nightmare, much as in the movie Groundhog Day. Obtuse decrees from bureaucracies can make every day unlucky.

There are two types of stock trading software packages available. A single function package supplies just one function for example real-time penny stocks quotes. There are also all-in-one packages that feature every function that a penny stocks trader should know so as to reach a meticulous investing decision.

Just like with any other form of predictive technology, you can only be given the possibility of events, and there are no certifications. These tools can only let know if a given stock or market will probably move up, down or stay sideways, based on how well its algorithms are built to stick to known investment theories and schools of thought. You’d first have to believe in the theory behind the tool, then believe in the accuracy and quality of the tool before you can trust how it works.

The Ten Lies of Dick Cheney (Part One)

On December 11, the Senate Armed Services Committee issued a compelling report into the torture and abuse of prisoners in US custody (PDF), based on a detailed analysis of how Chinese torture techniques, which are used in US military schools to train personnel to resist interrogation if captured, were reverse engineered and applied to prisoners captured in the "War on Terror."

The techniques, taught as part of the SERE programs (Survival, Evasion, Resistance, Escape) include sleep deprivation, the prolonged use of stress positions, forced nudity, hooding, exposure to extreme temperatures, subjecting prisoners to loud music and flashing lights, "treating them like animals," and, in some cases, the ancient torture technique known as waterboarding, a form of controlled drowning that the torturers of the Spanish Inquisition called "tortura del agua."

Just because they got their guy into the White House is no reason for Code Pink kooks to stop indulging in deplorable behavior.

Dressed as 'zombie soldiers' killed in combat, 'ghosts of war victims,' witches and healthcare fairies, members of Code Pink menacingly paraded in front of a captive audience of children one block from the White House, who waited along the sidewalk in front of Decatur House just off Lafayette Park for a Halloween party hosted by President Obama.

Last Saturday, the President hosted several hundred military families for trick or treating. Also invited were children of White House staff and about 2000 children from eleven D.C. area elementary schools.

Even al-Reuters was appalled. Check out their caption to the photo below:

Members of the protest group Code Pink taunt local school children with chants about the war in Afghanistan as the children and their families arrive for a Halloween reception by U.S. President Barack Obama
