The best documentary at this year's Florida Film Festival is also the most Florida-centric. Vivien Lesnik Weisman's Man of Two Havanas is framed as a personal essay on coming to understand her father, Max, a Cuban emigre who seemed to put politics ahead of family when she was growing up.
But it evolves into a fascinating family history set against Cuban and Cuban-American history. Using vintage newsreel footage and scads of fresh interviews with journalists, government officials, family members and above all, her irrepressible father, Vivien comes to appreciate Max Lesnik's lonely quest to be heard in a sea of rabid right wing, "Death to Fidel!" Cubans in and around Miami's Little Havana. She comes to see that Max is not just a Don Quixote, an idealist who once called Fidel friend and helped to overthrow the fascist dictator Batista, only to see his idealism betrayed by Castro's totalitarianism and communist opportunism. Lesnik is the only Cuban-American willing to have his Miami magazine bombed (11 times), his life threatened, his voice shouted-down, all in an effort to reconnect Miami's Cubans and Castro's Cubans.
It's a must-see documentary for anybody who wants to hear a less-shrill voice from a community known for its tantrums, who has hope that the days when a few fanatics could hold American foreign policy hostage might be over, and who wonders how Florida became known for its "Banana Republicans" in the first place.
Screening at: Sunday, March 30, 3:30 p.m.-5:30 p.m. at Enzian

The Senate puts the PRC in the backseat — or maybe not even in the car
February 9, 2014
On Thursday of this past week, the Senate held the second of two markup sessions on the postal reform bill, a.k.a. the manager's or substitute amendment, submitted by Senators Carper and Coburn. At the first session held the previous week, on January 29, a controversy arose over Section 301 of the proposed bill, which deals with postal rates and the role of the Postal Regulatory Commission. The controversy resumed on Thursday.
As originally proposed in the manager's amendment, Section 301 does several things. First, it takes the exigent rate increase that the PRC approved on a temporary basis and makes it the new base line. The bill thus essentially overturns the PRC's ruling in December and makes the 4.3 percent increase permanent, rather than limiting it to the time frame required to bring in $2.8 billion in profit (about 18 months to two years).
Section 301 also raises the current limit on annual rate increases from the CPI to the CPI plus one percent. That would all but guarantee higher annual rate increases over the next few years.
In addition to dealing with these two specific rate matters, Section 301 transfers much of the responsibility for setting postal rates in the future from the PRC to the Postal Board of Governors. The PRC's role would be reduced to reviewing the BOG's decision after the fact, rather than approving increases before they're implemented.
Finally, Section 301 gives the BOG the primary role in a 2017 rewrite of the ratemaking system. The PRC can have some input and it will be able to veto the revision, but that's about all.
As Senator Carper explained at Thursday's markup, he and Senator Coburn decided to give the PRC "a very minimal role in terms of actually deciding what that new rate structure would look like" in the 2017 rewrite. "We really put the Postal Service in the driver's seat. I don't even know if the PRC was in the car, but certainly the Postal Service was in the driver's seat." (video at 2:03:40)
Can it get much worse? The Senate tries postal reform, again
February 3, 2014
The Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Government Affairs finally took up its postal reform bill at a markup session on Wednesday, January 29. The new S.1486 the committee took up is significantly different from the Carper-Coburn bill released last August. The current version, aka the substitute bill or the managers' amendment, has introduced changes to the rate system, regulatory oversight, and facility closings that are worth close scrutiny.
The leadership of the Postal Service has expressed satisfaction with the new substitute bill. No wonder. It reads like the fulfillment of PMG Donahoe's and the Board of Governor's wish list. It grants them new powers over ratemaking, adds language regarding contract negotiations favorable to management, and creates a separate postal employee health plan within the current Federal Employee Health Benefit Plan (FEHBP). The bill also addresses the retiree health benefit prefunding, while adding a new prefunding requirement for workman's compensation.
Whatever its final form, the postal reform bill that comes out of the Senate will represent the next step in a process that has been going on since the Postal Service was created in 1971. For the last forty years the leadership of the Postal Service has pursued a course that treats the postal network in terms of a corporate business model that simply provides a delivery service. Postal leaders do not seem much interested in the view of the postal system as basic national infrastructure that connects American homes and businesses with each other and with their government. They do not seem very committed to a broad vision of the universal service obligation. They do not seem to understand what our Founders grasped so clearly — the important role of the postal network as a fundamental element of democracy, furthering access to information and creating connections in a way that bound the nation together.
Postal Service releases post office closure and suspension lists for 2013
February 2, 2014
The Postal Service has released the official lists of post office closings and suspensions in FY 2013. The lists come in response to a Chairman's Information Request made as part of the Annual Compliance Determination Review (ACDR) conducted by the Postal Regulatory Commission.
The lists can be downloaded from the PRC website here. We've also put them on Google docs for easy access: the closure list is here and a map here; the suspension list is here. (Note the tabs for each sheet at the bottom of the spreadsheets.)
A discussion of the discontinuances and suspensions that have taken place over the past year can be found in this post. Here's a brief update.
Postal Service ignores moratorium on post office closings, shuts down Glenoaks Station
January 31, 2014
On September 19, 2013, in testimony before the Senate Homeland Security Committee, Postmaster General Donahoe made a pledge not to close post offices or processing plants while Congress debated postal reform. That promise seemed dubious at the time because several post offices were closing at that very moment, but soon the closings did seem to come to a halt.
Aside from the PMG's comment at the Senate hearing, there was never an official announcement of a moratorium on closings, but then on January 13, 2014, the Postal Service sent a letter to residents in Glencoe, Alabama, indicating that there was in fact a moratorium in effect.
The Postal Service said that a notice it had sent the previous week announcing the potential closing of the Glencoe post office had been "issued in error." As the letter went on to explain, "We are in a moratorium. Any correspondence and activity concerning the proposed closing of Glencoe has been put on hold until further notice."
Despite the PMG's pledge and this acknowledgement that there's a moratorium, the Postal Service is closing the Glenoaks Station post office in Burbank, California. According to an article in the Burbank Leader yesterday, the Glenoaks post office closed its doors this month.
The Postal Service has had plans to sell the building housing the Glenoaks post office since 2009, after a Facility Optimization study selected the facility for disposal. Now those plans are finally being realized. "We have to remove equipment and prepare it to market it," Postal Service spokesman Richard Maher said. "Whatever we get for it would be revenue generation."
Though the plans had been in the works since 2009, the Postal Service waited until March 2011 before announcing that it would be studying the Glenoaks post office for closure. The discontinuance study was conducted that spring, but it would be two more years before a final determination was issued, on June 20, 2013.
Congressman Adam Schiff, who represents the Burbank area, called the decision "misguided" and urged the Postal Service to reconsider. Nine residents of Burbank appealed the decision to the Postal Regulatory Commission, and comments were also filed by yours truly, Steve Hutkins of Save the Post Office, on behalf of one of the petitioners.
The Glenoaks appeal was a significant case because after the appeals were filed the Postal Service immediately filed a Motion to Dismiss in which it tried out a new argument for why the PRC should dismiss appeals. Based on the fact that a few previous appeals had been dismissed because the closures were seen as part of a "rearrangement of retail facilities," the Postal Service claimed that closing Glenoaks was also part of such a "rearrangement" so the appeal should be dismissed.
The Postal Service's argument represented an unprecedented expansion of the scope of what a "rearrangement" could mean. There were no other facility actions taking place in Burbank that might justify seeing the Glenoaks closure as part of a larger realignment of retail services. The Postal Service had gone through a normal discontinuance procedure, and the post office was closing, pure and simple.
Dismissing appeals has become an all-too-common practice with the PRC. Of the last eleven appeals that have been filed, eight have been dismissed or rejected without review. If the Glenoaks appeal had been dismissed on the grounds that it was part of a "rearrangement," it would have opened the door to many more appeals being dismissed. That denies communities the right to due process, and it allows the Postal Service to close post offices in an "arbitrary and capricious" manner without concern for subsequent review by the Commission or anyone else.

7 p.m. Robinson Center Music Hall. $64.
Who saw this one coming? Anybody? The comedy world's closest equivalent to J.D. Salinger is coming to ... Little Rock and Memphis? The last I'd read of Dave Chappelle was back in July 2011 when he did a two-night stint for charity at a Miami casino, and the first night ended with him standing there at length, answering text messages and telling all of one joke, apparently because a bunch of yahoos in the front were filming the set with their phones. Now that is some tacky behavior for sure, but did it warrant giving the silent treatment to the non-mouth-breather contingent of the audience as well? I don't know, but I'm inclined to sympathize with Chappelle on this one because probably more than most comics, he's had to deal with obnoxious fans ("Man, I bet everybody'll think it's hilarious when I scream 'I'm Rick James, bitch!' right in the middle of Dave's set!"), but also because I just really, really want everybody to put away their $*¥%@#! phones for one minute. But aside from the Miami incident (for which he apologized and mocked himself the next night) I'm intrigued by reports of Chappelle working out new material at impromptu late-night sets at small comedy clubs. Daily Beast columnist Touré described one of these shows and said that while the set meandered a bit and didn't really have a theme, Chappelle killed and his "comedy muscles remain cock diesel." The crowd at Robinson will get to find out for sure, but please (and I really shouldn't have to say this), people: keep your catchphrases and your phones in your pockets. RB.
9 p.m. Stickyz.
Of all the best Arkansas bands playing right now, I think War Chief has as much of that elusive and mysterious "break-out potential" as any other group going. The band did well in the 2012 Times Musicians Showcase, making it to the final round and getting the crowd onboard with its melodic rock-folk. Their songs are accessible and contemporary, and while the group certainly draws on the influence of giants — think a less shaggy Crazy Horse — they've got their own sound. Essentially, the band plays a tasteful, smart, modern version of classic rock: the music is rocking (as opposed to cheekily "rawking"); there are guitar solos; front man Grayson Shelton is a singer, not a yarler. I've only heard a couple of tracks from War Chief's forthcoming full-length, but I was certainly not disappointed. The two tracks were allegedly rough mixes, but they sounded fine to these ears, with soaring six-string action and a Hammond B3 (or something close to it) swirling around in the mix that's reminiscent of prime, mid-'60s Dylan. The album, titled "Love Letters from Prester John," should be available at this show. Opening acts are the raucous country-rockers Swampbird and a solo set from Fayetteville showman Randall Shreve. RB.
Noon. Mosaic Templars Cultural Center. Free.
Juneteenth, which commemorates the announcement of the end of slavery in Texas, is now a state holiday or observance in 41 states, including Arkansas. Though the Emancipation Proclamation became official in 1863, it wasn't until 1865 that the news reached Texas and Gen. Gordon Granger began enforcement of emancipation on June 19. The holiday was typically observed at churches and in rural areas — because of segregation — and usually entailed barbecues, games, rodeos, fishing and prayer services, according to Juneteenth.com. The Mosaic Templars Cultural Center will celebrate with activities for kids, food vendors, live entertainment, a rock climbing wall and more, from noon to 7 p.m. The celebration includes live music from Nicky Parrish, Afrodesia with Tim Anthony, Essie the Blues Lady, The Girls & Boys Choir of Little Rock, Butterfly and Irie Soul, Billy Jones Bluez, The Gloryland Pastors Choir and Foreign Tongues poetry group. At 1:30 p.m., there will be a short play about the importance of celebrating Juneteenth. RB.

Summer Wicker Decor
What is wicker? Wicker is woven fiber formed into a rigid material, usually used for baskets or furniture. Wicker is often made of material that originates from plants, but plastic fibers are also used. Wicker is light yet sturdy, making it suitable for furniture that will be moved often. Wicker furniture will last 20 to 30 years and therefore can be a fiscally responsible choice for furniture. It can be used indoors to improve any bedroom's decor and also outdoors to dress up a patio or deck.
Wicker is made from different materials such as: rattan, cane, kubu, bamboo, willow, seagrass, and banana leaf. The primary material used is rattan vine. It can grow up to 600′ in length in a single day, making it a sustainable resource. Material from the entire rattan plant is used including: peel, core, pole and all. This furniture can be easily cleaned and maintained by wiping with a furniture polish. The durability of wicker is astonishing with the earliest known piece of wicker furniture dating back to 4000 B.C. while the oldest surviving pieces date from the Egyptian Empire.
Wicker chairs and sofas can be dressed up with cushions and pillows. A patio or deck can be transformed with a wicker furniture package. Add flair and decor to a boring bedroom with a wicker storage trunk, night stands, and a sitting bench. Wicker furniture is affordable and guaranteed to last many years. It's reliable and sturdy yet lightweight making it easy to move. Summer decor is not complete without wicker furniture and stores like Pier 1 Imports offers excellent choices.
Wicker can be bought in a variety of pieces such as: dining tables, end and accent tables, chairs and sectionals, patio umbrellas, and ottomans. This furniture says backyard barbeque, summer cook-outs, and indoor elegance for those looking to change things up a little bit.
A Little Color Goes A Long Way In Home Decor
Decorating wisely with color can transform any space from drab to fabulous. Whether it's with paint, linens, furniture, or various knick knacks, color adds life and flair to any room in a house. To get started, review color palettes that best fit your space. Usually a palette will have four colors that work nicely with each other. This will give you an idea of what the overall color balance in the room will be when finished. Choose one color but use many hues. If blue is the goal color, use dark and light shades of blue to complete the room.
Another good painting and decorating tip is to reference the color wheel. Choose colors that are complementary of each other on the wheel as this creates a balance of color. If you plan to paint a room blue, accent the furniture with orange pillows since orange and blue are opposite on the color wheel. If you are too nervous to go a little bold, start off with a neutral, gray wall color. You can always dress up the room with plush fabrics and pops of pink like you see below.
If you really want your room to be a hit, don't be afraid to mix bright colors. They create a fashionable area and add light and energy to a room. Sometimes it's best not to match colors as this creates a unique environment.
Revamping a room with color can be done without painting the walls. Simple decorative pillow shams, a bed throw, a chair cushion, and lace curtains can add a dramatic touch in just a few minutes. A colorful lamp shade, a patterned rug, or a painted vase are all affordable ways to add flair to any boring room. When in doubt, start small and continuously add items until the perfect color balance is achieved.
7 Ideas For Women to Spin Off The "Man Cave"
The Need for a Wo-Man Cave
"Man Caves" are a thing every guy dreams about owning one day. Man Caves are notoriously known as dark, musty rooms packed with sports paraphernalia, a large cigar and whiskey collection, more leather (covering chairs, tables, couches, walls, anything) than should be legal, maybe a few animal heads, and of course the ubiquitous pool/billiards table.
As great as that sounds to you guys, us ladies also need a place of our own. We may humor you with your cute idea of building a man cave, but if you really want your über masculine space, then guess what, we get our über femme place. And if we do get our way, here's what WE would put in our beautiful Closet on Steroids.
1. A Crafts Area
We love our crafts, whether it be graphics on the computer, photo-editing from a night out with the girls, drawing doodles, beading or sewing, we need one place to keep it all organized and accessible. And, no crafts area is complete without a black-board-magnetic-painted wall to keep track of our creative ideas.
2. A Comfy Love Seat with Throws and Pillows Galore
Sometimes when we'd rather be inspired than let our inspiration flow, we may pick up a book or our laptop and plop down in a heavenly love seat. The more throws and pillows garnishing this lounge of love, the better.
3. A Book Nook
The need to crawl into a cozy small reading nook, full of our favorite love stories, epic adventures, and biographies of people who inspire and captivate, never leaves us. A book nook is the best addition a closet on steroids can have for those of us who love to curl up like a cat and get lost in yet another amazing story.
4. The Battle Station
There's a whole section on Pinterest devoted to the best lady battle stations. A battle station is what we call our 'makeup area.' It's a rather appropriate verbiage for some of us who definitely duke it out with our eyeliner every morning. Being that we begin every day here, it's an essential piece of our closet on steroids.
5. The Cocktail Corner
Just because we're ladies, doesn't mean we don't enjoy a drink like the guys do. Fill your cocktail corner with your favorite mixed drinks, wines, spirits or a keg. Yum!
6. A Window Seat
Deep thought is best done looking out into nature… or a busy street if nature isn't your thing. Really, its just nice having a window to look out of to stalk your neighbors or watch the planes fly over, so put a comfy seat there and throw some more miss-matched pillows and funky quilts on it!
7. Glorious Twinkly Lighting
Nothing beats great lighting to set the mood of your closet. Florescent lights hurt the eyes; candles on their own are too dark and rather risky for those of us who love hanging tapestries, so go instead with great string lighting. It sets the mood perfectly for cozy nights and a cup of tea, or to calm you after a hard days work.
All Of These Together? HEAVEN
Bottom line, let the man have their man caves, as long as we get our woman caves too! As you can certainly tell, woman caves blow man caves right out of the water.

As expected since its announcement during Sony's E3 2014 press conference on Tuesday, Rockstar's newly announced Grand Theft Auto V for PC has appeared on Steam, boasting a number of enhancements over its previously PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 counterparts.
According to the description, the game "will take full advantage of the power of PC to deliver across-the-board enhancements including increased resolution and graphical detail, denser traffic, greater draw distances, upgraded AI, new wildlife, and advanced weather and damage effects for the ultimate open world experience."
It will also come with a video editor "designed for advanced movie-making," just like the PC version of its predecessor, Grand Theft Auto IV. That editor allowed users to capture in-game footage, make edits in real-time, render the clips as WMV movie files and upload them to the Rockstar Social Club.
Sadly there is still no word on the long-awaited heist missions, and whether they will come packed in with the launch on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, but here is hoping for more information as we get closer to the launch window of Spring 2014. Until then, check out the E3 2014 announcement trailer below.

Medical technician gets 39 years for triggering hepatitis C outbreak
The case against David M. Kwiatkowski
Number of states in which he worked, 2003-2012: 8, in multiple hospitals
Hepatitis C diagnosis discovered: 2010 Number of patients he is known to have infected with hepatitis C: At least 45 (No way to determine precise number of those he exposed to virus): One at VA Medical Center, Baltimore, Md., in 2008; Six at Johns Hopkins Hospital in 2009; Six at Hays Medical Center in Kansas in 2010; 32 at Exeter Hospital in 2011-2012
Deaths: One known (Kansas) Cases Kwiatkowski pleaded guilty to Aug. 14: Seven of the NH cases plus the fatal Kansas case
Number of patients CDC recommended be tested for hepatitis C because of Kwiatkowski: More than 12,000 Number of Exeter Hospital patients tested: 3,753
Cost to New Hampshire to respond to public health crisis: $384,000
When Kwiatkowski began stealing pain killers intended for hospital patients: He admitted he began diverting drugs in 2002 when he and a co-worker stole vials of morphine from a Michigan emergency room.
What is hepatitis C: A viral, blood-borne illness most efficiently transmitted through contact with infected blood. It is potentially fatal. It is most commonly transmitted through needle-sharing by users of injectable drugs. It is occasionally spread sexually or through sharing personal items contaminated with infected blood (e.g. toothbrushes). There currently is no vaccine for Hepatitis C. A small percentage of those who become infected with the disease are able to "clear" the infection. Most (85 percent) develop chronic Hepatitis C. It can lead to chronic liver disease. There currently is no vaccine for Hepatitis C.
Of the 45 known victims, 32 became infected while patients at Exeter Hospital; one was infected at the VA Medical Center and six others at Johns Hopkins Hospital, both located in Baltimore, Md.; six patients were infected at Hays Medical Center in Hays, Kansas. One of the Kansas patients — 89-year-old grandmother Eleanor Murphy — later died from complications.
Kwiatkowski was arrested July 19, 2012, and pleaded guilty last Aug. 14 to eight counts each of tampering with a consumer product and obtaining controlled substances by fraud in connection with seven of the New Hampshire cases and the fatal Kansas case.
"You took my life," Page continued as Kwiatkowski stared ahead in silence. Page wept as his former wife, Joan, took his arm and escorted him back to his seat.
"I have listened to you guys. I have read your statements. I agree with you. I do belong in prison," Kwiatkowski read aloud from a written statement.
Kwiatkowski's conduct set off a national public health crisis prompting the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to recommend 12,000 people be tested for hepatitis C. Assistant U.S. Attorney John J. Farley said Kwiatkowski's conduct resulted in the greatest number of victims reported in a drug diversion case. And, Farley added, his actions were particularly heinous because he could have stolen the narcotic syringes and replaced them with sterile ones. Yet Kwiatkowski chose to refill the tainted syringes and return them for patient use even though he knew he had hepatitis C at least since 2010.
While the convictions and sentencing close all criminal cases against Kwiatkowski, Kacavas said he has directed his staff to draft a policy paper that will highlight "systematic failures" in the medical care system that allowed Kwiatkowski to "exploit critical gaps" that enabled him to continue infecting others in multiple states.
The team that investigated and prosecuted Kwiatkowski's criminal case now will work on a white paper that will identify these gaps and systemic failures and possibly propose civil or administrative remedies, Kacavas said.
"However, it is a crime and had the crime been reported to law enforcement, this serial infector would not have reached Kansas, he wouldn't have reached Baltimore and he wouldn't have reached New Hampshire," Kacavas said.
In sentencing Kwiatkowski, LaPlante read aloud the 45 victims' names and thanked those who spoke in court.
"I don't know what to make of this crime," LaPlante continued. "The law doesn't view it as purposeful or knowing conduct. Just viewing it as reckless conduct or a crime of addiction just doesn't do it justice. There is a component to your conduct that goes beyond recklessness. There is a component of cruelty or sadistic or hostility or something about it," the judge continued.
"People do have a capacity for mercy. This isn't any generous helping of that. It's just a token," LaPlante explained. "As you spend the next 39 years of your life in prison, I hope you remember the one year you didn't get and remember and try to develop that capacity in yourself."

Julia Eccleshare's comment:
Funny and poignant, this is the most popular of all Jacqueline Wilson's best-selling titles. Tracy Beaker, a feisty ten year old living in a children's home, gives a sparky view of life in what she calls The Dumping Ground. She moves swiftly through her deep sadness at not having a 'real' home, her vigorous relationships with the other children and the ultimate joy of finding a wonderful foster mother. As fresh to read now as when it was first published twenty years ago.
The LoveReading Comment:
Probably Jacqueline Wilson's most successful character creation. Tracy Beaker is a tough feisty little girl in a children's home who longs to live in a real home with a real family one day. The author's inspiration for the story came from seeing photos of children in local newspapers wanting to be fostered. It's funny and sad in equal measure but ultimately uplifting and children of 7 or 8 upwards will want to read it again and again.Who is Julia Eccleshare ?

Washington, DC — Fallout from the Obama Administration's aggressive federal enforcement in medical marijuana states has reached a fever pitch this month with three people being sentenced, two others due to surrender to federal authorities to serve out sentences of up to five years in prison, and one federal trial in Montana currently scheduled for January 14th.

The Blind Sheik and Our Mute President – Michelle Malkin – National Review Online
Egypt's terror-coddling president, Mohamed Morsi, has repeated his arrogant demand that America free convicted 1993 World Trade Center mastermind Omar Abdel Rahman. I'd like to report that President Obama repeated his unequivocal rejection of the Muslim Brotherhood leader's entreaties. But as of this writing, no such public statement or restatement yet exists.
That's right. Obama has kept mum about Morsi's vociferous lobbying on behalf of Abdel Rahman, the "blind sheik," who is serving a life sentence at a maximum-security prison in North Carolina for seditious jihad conspiracy. The commander-in-chief's silence speaks volumes.

Obama is friends with three Pakistani college roommates, muslims, Mohammed Hasan Chandio, Wahid Hamid, and Indian Vinai Thummalapally. In the summer of 1981 Obama travelled with his friends to Pakistan.

Brezinski was deeply involved in the U.S. aspects to support Osama Bin Laden against the Russians in Afghanistan. Pakistan was the base of operations against the Russians in support of the Mujahadeen. Simultaneous to this time Brezinski is in Pakistan / Afghanistan, so is John Brennan as part of his CIA duty.

President Barack Obama signed a bill into law on Thursday guaranteeing himself Secret Service protection for the rest of his life.
White House press secretary Jay Carney said Obama signed the "Former Presidents Protection Act of 2012" on Thursday. The law affects Obama, former President George W. Bush and future presidents, who under current law would only be protected for 10 years after leaving office.

Before he met Michelle Robinson, Barack Obama had no traction on the streets of Chicago. In a head-to-head contest against Bobby Rush, a charter member of the Black Panther Party, Barack Obama suffered a painful ego deflation.
In their competition in the 2000 Democrat primary for Illinois' first congressional district Bobby Rush had deftly whitewashed Barack as a creature of white culture – of his white mother and his white grandparents, his white girlfriends and his white and Jewish advisors and benefactors far from the gritty South Ward in rich-and-comfortable Hyde Park.

To the naïve and uninformed, the Environmental Protection Agency exists to ensure clean air and water in the nation. That was its initial mandate when it was created by an executive order by President Nixon in 1970. It has since become a nation killer.
In 2013 a flood of regulations will cost thousands of Americans their jobs and drive more industry overseas to avoid the cost of doing business in America. It will drive up the cost of energy from electricity, along with the cost of gas and diesel fuel. It will effectively kill much of the coal mining industry in a nation that is the Saudi Arabia of coal, an energy source that formerly provided fifty percent of all electricity in America.

Can Republicans Win a Government Shutdown?
If Republicans do happen to force a shutdown in Washington, it's very possible they'll be embracing a political loser while doing the rest of us an immense favor.
With three Washington-manufactured fiscal apocalypses — sequestration, the debt ceiling and a new "budget" — on the docket, the idea of shutting down government to extract concessions from the iron trap sometimes known as the Obama administration has gained traction among Republicans. Or, I should say, the idea of threatening to shut down Washington has.
Pat Toomey, John Cornyn and other conservatives have said as much, though they've littered their shutdown statements with comforting modifiers, such as "partial" and "temporary," to allay the fears of Americans, who apparently can't fathom existence without the Department of Commerce. Certainly, it would energize the conservative base, and it might be effective in pressuring Democrats into genuine spending reforms. Because, despite what you may have heard, it's worked before.

Registration Will Lead to Confiscation
The Blaze ^ | January 9, 2013 | Brian Lilley
Posted on Thursday, January 10, 2013 1:37:19 PM by Tolerance Sucks Rocks
According to The Washington Post, the Obama administration is considering a "national database" of all firearms in the United States to "track the movement and sale of weapons." If such a database comes to fruition the database will lead to confiscation.
Last year Canada ended its national long gun registry, a national database of every rifle and shotgun in the country that was supposed to help police track the movement of and sale of weapons. When it was introduced twenty years ago critics said the registration of firearms would eventually lead to confiscation, a criticism dismissed as ridiculous, yet that's what happened and more right up until its dismantling.
As recently as last winter law abiding gun owners who had complied with the registry were having their rifles confiscated. In late 2011 hundreds if not thousands of people who had legally purchased the Armi Jager AP80, a .22 calibre variant of the AK47, were informed that their rifles had been deemed illegal and must be surrendered .

The Davidian Massacre ^ | July 2007 | Carol Moore
Posted on Thursday, January 10, 2013 12:35:47 PM by BillM
by Carol Moore
I was one of millions of Americans who, after seeing the April 19, 1993 burning of the Branch Davidian church outside of Waco, Texas wondered: Did these people really commit mass suicide, as the government alleged, despite the clear evidence on television that the fire started after a tank crashed into one part of the building? Were they really as insane as the government claimed? Why did they have to be attacked with massive, military-like force 51 days earlier? What is the truth?
After two years of research I came to the following conclusions, documented in my book The Davidian Massacre published in late 1995. After the book came out more evidence surfaced that back up allegations — and answer questions — presented in the book. I review both below. See the links above for the book's online version and other information.
King George III and King Barack I | revisedhistory
…..Personally, I think King Barack I would love to get rid of all the guns yesterday, all at once, but his Council on Foreign Relations handlers probably won't let him go that fast. They will make him do it a little slower, a little more gradually so the gun-owning community will not all get upset all at once when they see the proposals the federal government puts forth.
Since most Americans educated in public schools are seldom taught real history they do not know that the Second Amendment was put into the Bill of Rights so citizens would be able to protect themselves from a tyrannical government, not so they could hunt on the weekend.Protection from federal tyranny was, and is, the real reason for the Second Amendment. For that reason, alone, citizens should not be prohibited from owning semi-automatic rifles, which are really not "assault rifles."
King Barack I will do only what he has to do through Congress, which is more and more becoming a useless appendage, there only to fool the public into thinking they still have representative government while Obama really rules via executive decree as all dictators do.It remains to be seen what gun owners will do when the rubber meets the road and confiscation of guns is ordered. Let us hope that, by God's grace, they will uphold the Second Amendment……

The hot new video at MRCTV.org is 1995 footage of Attorney General Eric Holder, when he was the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia. In his remarks before the Woman's National Democratic Club, broadcast by CSPAN 2, Holder said people should be ashamed to own guns, just the way that cigarette smokes now "cower outside of buildings" to smoke.
"What we need to do is change the way in which people think about guns, especially young people, and make it something that's not cool, that it's not acceptable, it's not hip to carry a gun anymore, in the way in which we've changed our attitudes about cigarettes. You know, when I was growing up, people smoked all the time. Both my parents did.
(GyG: Hint: Get Some New Hired Hands) ~ The Magnificent Seven – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Mexican village is periodically raided for food and supplies by bandits led by Calvera (Eli Wallach). As he and his men rode away from their latest visit, Calvera had promised to return for more booty and loot the village again.
Taking what meager goods they have, the village leaders ride to a town just inside the American border hoping to barter for weapons to defend themselves. While there, they encounter veteran gunslinger, Chris (Yul Brynner); after listening to their tale, Chris suggests that the village hire more gunfighters as they would be cheaper than guns and ammunition.
The village men relentlessly try to convince Chris to be their gunman; while at first he agrees just to help them find men, eventually he decides to help them out in person as well as finding six other men to join them, despite the poor pay offered.

The story suggests the six turned the White House "from a position hostile to Islamic groups and organizations in the world to the largest and most important supporter of the Muslim Brotherhood."
The story is largely unsourced, but its publication is considered significant in raising the issue to Egyptian readers, IPT said.

Guns and Freedom by Andrew P. Napolitano
The right of the people to keep and bear arms is an extension of the natural right to self-defense and a hallmark of personal sovereignty. It is specifically insulated from governmental interference by the Constitution and has historically been the linchpin of resistance to tyranny. And yet, the progressives in both political parties stand ready to use the coercive power of the government to interfere with the exercise of that right by law-abiding persons because of the gross abuse of that right by some crazies in our midst.
When Thomas Jefferson wrote in the Declaration of Independence that we are endowed by our Creator with certain inalienable rights, he was marrying the nation at its birth to the ancient principles of the natural law that have animated the Judeo-Christian tradition in the West. Those principles have operated as a break on all governments that recognize them by enunciating the concept of natural rights.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." — Theodore Roosevelt, April 23, 1910

It's about more than guns… ("We are not witnessing incompetence, but the fulfillment of an agenda generations in the making. A century ago our Republic experienced a coup in the form of a monetary takeover through the creation of the Federal Reserve, followed by a consolidation of power through the IRS")
By Doug Hagmann Thursday, January 10, 2013
The warning signs of a tyrannical takeover of our Constitutional Republic have been flashing red for some time now and are now reaching a fever pitch. Despite the flashing signs, the clamor of the alarms and the cries of the watchmen, most Americans of this era remain in denial or have been rendered intellectually catatonic by busily chasing immediate gratification in the form of the newest version of the iPhone, iPad, or whatever "i" device will satisfy their ADHD addled intellect.
Others have simply chosen to adhere to a normalcy bias that is continuously fed by the familiar faces and voices of political pundits who remain dedicated to the lie of the right-left, Republican-Democrat paradigm of American politics, unwilling or unable to look at the larger picture for fear of being shamed by accusations of being part of a conspiracy fringe. Instead, these pundits would rather ignore the lie and squander their ability to make a difference, to educate and inform others of the dangers of the lie they know exists.
We must realize that we are not witnessing the fundamental change of America as represented by the mindless mantra of the Obama campaign, but something much deeper, much more nefarious, and something that will not be rectified through the ballot box. As uncomfortable as it is, what we face cannot and will not wait for the next general election.
Actions have consequences, but so does inaction.
The giant, gaping hole in Sandy Hook reporting
Since last month's horrifying and heartbreaking school massacre in Newtown, Conn., politicians and the press have, as everyone knows, been totally obsessed with firearms.
Indeed, President Obama has vowed to impose strong new gun-control measures on the nation – very soon, with or without Congress.
Other possible factors – from violent video games to the "failure of our mental-health system" to the unintended consequences of making schools "gun-free zones" – have taken a back seat to guns. Within hours of the gruesome mega-crime, the media had provided extensive, round-the-clock coverage of precisely which firearms, manufacturers and calibers the perpetrator had used, how he had obtained them from his mother, where they were originally purchased, and so on.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is planning a Thursday morning announcement of new lending rules that it hopes will move the mortgage market toward a sustainable middle ground, somewhere in between the free-wheeling days of no-documentation loans and the current, restrictive environment.
For most borrowers, the rules will mean no more interest-only mortgages, no more loans where the principal due increases over time, no more loans that carry a balloon payment and no more loan terms of more than 30 years. In addition, would-be borrowers will be less likely to qualify for a mortgage unless their total debts account for no more than 43 percent of their monthly gross income.

Piers Morgan had it easy. Radio show host and author Alex Jones threatened the rest of us with a "revolution" if the government decides to confiscate guns from the homes and glove compartments of law-abiding Americans.

So let's take him seriously.

Shocked journalists this afternoon were quick to react to the Drudge Report's controversial header photo comparing President Obama to Hitler and Stalin. The item linked to a Weekly Standard article reporting that President Obama was willing to address the gun issue with an executive order.
"Hitler and Stalin!" exclaimed BuzzFeed Editor Ben Smith on Twitter alerting most of his followers by linking directly to the Drudge Report.
"Drudge rules our world," responded Slate journalist David Weigel to Smith's post on Twitter, later adding sarcastically, "SOMETHING SHOCKING HAS BEEN POSTED ON THE INTERNET."
"Our right is nuttier than your right (US to 193 countries)," wrote the Al-Monitor's Laura Rozen.
The Washington Post's Greg Sargent begged his followers not to talk about or visit the Drudge Report.
"Dear everyone: Talking about how Drudge's visuals are ruse to get attention = giving Drudge attention," he wrote.
"Also, don't link to Drudge – link to twitpic," the Washington Post's James Downie added.

During World War II, a group known as the Monuments Men, "attempted to minimize [Nazi] damage to European monuments and architecture and then track down stolen works of art.
In the end Allied Forces located more than 1,000 repositories of art, sculpture, and furniture stolen by the Nazis," a search which continues to this day.
In his book entitled Rescuing Da Vinci, author Robert M. Edsel, quotes William Shirer who described Hitler thusly:
I observed his face. It was grave, solemn, yet brimming with revenge. There was also in it, as in his springy step, a note of the triumphant conqueror, the defier of the world.
There was something else, difficult to describe, in his expression, a sort of scornful inner joy at being present at this great reversal of fate — a reversal he himself had wrought.
This "scornful inner joy" describes Obama well. With his officious bearing and his "revenge" moment, he is the "defier of the world" as he continues his transformation of this country.
And it makes me shudder.
