"March Madness"

The crazy season has begun. Last weekend I watched some Illinois "Girls" Basketball tournies class 3A and 4A. Tonight starts Illinois "Boys" Tournaments. Some College Confrence Playoffs began today. By the weekend they all should be over and the 65 teams and brackets of the Colleges will be posted Sunday night/late afternoon. I tried to start a NCAA "Playoff Pool". I invited people to join and will have to wait and see as to what will happen.

"Business Ethics" gone again.

Now it's Apple who is trying to increase profits by not monitoring its foreign production sites. There are responsibilities for doing business. Safe products. Social responsibilities of decent wages and worker safety and not exploiting children. Realizing there are costs to manufacturing, I feel that that the big business interests must be watched and held responsible. Cheap products are one thing. How you arrive at that position is another. That's were responsible "journalism" comes into play, but that's a story for another time, if responsible journalism is still around to comment on.
