Hard-to-employ find their niche

By CARLA K. JOHNSON

HIGHLAND PARK, Ill. The software testers at Aspiritech are a collection of characters. Katie Levin talks nonstop. Brian Tozzo hates driving. Jamie Specht is bothered by bright lights, vacuum cleaners and the feel of carpet against her skin. Rider Hallenstein draws cartoons of himself as a DeLorean sports car. Rick Alexander finds it unnerving to sit near other people.

This is the unusual workforce of a U.S. startup that specializes in finding software bugs by harnessing the talents of young adults with autism.

In China, what you eat tells who you are

================================

"Many of the nation's best food companies don't promote or advertise. They don't want the public to know that their limited supply is sent to Communist Party officials, dining halls reserved for top athletes, foreign diplomats, and others in the elite classes. The general public, meanwhile, dines on foods that are increasingly tainted or less than healthful — meats laced with steroids, fish from ponds spiked with hormones to increase growth, milk containing dangerous additives such as melamine, which allows watered-down milk to pass protein-content tests."


Sad but true. Food that is prepared for the masses, especially fast food, is not even worth feeding to a dog, but people eat it anyway because they don't know any better.

This is why people look so sick and have health problems at such an early age.

On the flip side, even though these top officials get to eat the best of food, they still have poor health and suffer from health problems due to OVER eating, the high stress of their jobs, lack of exercise, and the harmful alcohol and drug consuming life that they often live in their private lives.

If you don't believe me, look at any politician (male or female). When they come into office for the first time they are fit, young and good looking, but even with their world class health care and top quality food notice how most politicians become fat, sick looking, and have a myriad of health problems like Dick Cheney.
