Up to 30,000 missing emails sent by former Internal Revenue Service official Lois Lerner have been recovered by the IRS inspector general, five months after they were deemed lost forever.
The U.S. Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA) informed congressional staffers from several committees on Friday that the emails were found among hundreds of disaster recovery tapes that were used to back up the IRS email system.

The Obama administration made a ransom payment to an Afghan con man earlier this year in an unsuccessful attempt to secure the release of Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, according to aWashington Times report. Best-selling author Brad Thor predicted there was likely money exchanged as part of the deal in a previous op-ed on TheBlaze.

That person, who has retired and spoke to the AP under condition of anonymity, said "he knows of no evidence the program was used for anything other than hunting for terrorism plots in the US. But he said he and others made the case that the collection of American records in bulk crossed a line that had been sacrosanct."

One of the documents provides smoking gun proof that the Obama White House and the Eric Holder Justice Department colluded to get CBS News to block reporter Sharyl Attkisson. Attkisson was one of the few mainstream media reporters who paid any attention to the deadly gun-running scandal.
In an email dated October 4, 2011, Attorney General Holders top press aide, Tracy Schmaler, called Attkisson out of control. Schmaler told White House Deputy Press Secretary Eric Schultz that he intended to call CBS news anchor Bob Schieffer to get the network to stop Attkisson.

Sen. Dianne Feinstein, a longtime opponent of intelligence reform, made a surprising change of vote and pleaded with her colleagues to support the bill. She remains a defender of the program, pointing out that there were only 288 queries for metadata in 2013.
However, Feinstein felt if the bill didn't pass, it could lead to the program being thrown out altogether.
"If we didn't pass the House bill, there were members that wanted to end the whole program," said Feinstein. "I do not want to end the program. I'm prepared to make the compromise, which is that the metadata will be kept by the telecoms."

Democrats relinquishing the Senate have outlined an ambitious agenda for the lame-duck session, reports the Boston Globe. The Democrats are likely to have bold plans for the lame duck, says NBC News. Lots and lots of business is evidently being packed into the brief window between the Nov. 4 election and Jan. 3, when the next Congress is sworn-in. Thats too bad. Lame-duck sessions, absent national emergency, are actually a very bad idea.

IRS attorneys conceded that they had failed to search the agencys servers for missing emails because they decided that the servers would not result in the recovery of any information. They admitted they had failed to search the agencys disaster recovery tapes because they had no reason to believe that the tapes are a potential source of recovering the missing emails. And they conceded that they had not searched the government-wide back-up system because they had no reason to believe such a system even exists.

President Barack Obama recently came out in favor of both "net neutrality" and the FCC changing the way that Internet service providers, or ISPs, are regulated. Shortly thereafter, Sen. Ted Cruz opined "'Net Neutrality' is Obamacare for the Internet; the Internet should not operate at the speed of government." Obama's and Cruz's statements fed into the popular misconception that the proposed FCC reclassification is the same thing as net neutrality. It's not. The policies are distinct, though both are bad ideas.

The dirty secret is the American voter doesnt actually care about the uninsured," Gruber said. "The dirty secret is: You cant really get a law passed by saying, Were helping the uninsured. You have to make it about cost control to get it passed. Because thats what the American public cares about. So they had to make this law not just about the uninsured, but about cost control. That was a challenge, he added.

Yesterday evening, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) took action to move the USA Freedom Act toward a debate and a vote. That's a big turnaround from September, when Senate sources said passing the act "wasn't a top priority." With Reid's support, a vote could come as early as next week.

A former high-ranking diplomat and Clinton ally at the center of an FBI counterintelligence probe was a registered foreign agent for the Pakistani government up until just days before she was appointed to run the U.S. State Department's Pakistan aid team.
The Washington Post reported last week that the State Department's aid coordinator for Pakistan, Robin Raphel, is the subject of a counterintelligence investigation and has had her security clearance revoked.

At the end of the APEC trade summit in China, U.S. President Barack Obama announced a climate change agreement with Chinese President Xi Jinping that would cut both countries' greenhouse gas emissions by close to a third over the next two decades.
Under the deal, the United States would cut its carbon emissions between 26-28% -- from levels established in 2005 -- by 2025. China would peak its carbon emissions no later than 2030 and would also increase the use of non-fossil fuels to 20% by 2030.

Develop a more acceptable compromise bill that implements background checks upon change of title, but without the registration component, which is far more dangerous. You can exempt CCW holders, and allow people to obtain a background check certificate that certifies someone is clear, and then the private sale can happen. In this case all the government would know is that Joe Blow obtained a background check certificate. They wouldnt know if he bought, or what he bought. Maybe he just got it to go shopping. Remember, as long as theres a way to transfer a firearm without a 4473, there are legal avenues for you NOT to have that gun when they come knocking for it. In order for this to shut Bloomberg down, it would have to be done at the federal level. Its too late for Nevada, even if something like this passed next week. Of course, I wouldnt accept anything like this as the federal level unless we got something in return, so attach to the bill eliminating restrictions on interstate transfers. Why do we need them? Now everyone gets a background check.

If the bag was open and I could do anything, the biggest problem that I see in the world of child sexual exploitation is anonymity on the Internet. When we get our drivers licence were required to get our picture taken for identification. When you get a mortgage you have to sign and provide identification. When you sign up for the Internet, there is absolutely no requirement for any kind of non-anonymity qualifier. There are a lot of people who are hiding behind the Internet to do all kinds of crime, including cybercrime, fraud, sexual exploitation and things along those lines.

This bill was written in a tortured way to make sure CBO did not score the mandate as taxes. If CBO scored the mandate as taxes, the bill dies. Okay, so its written to do that. In terms of risk rated subsidies, if you had a law which said healthy people are going to pay in you made it explicit that healthy people pay in and sick people get money, it would not have passed Lack of transparency is a huge political advantage. And basically, you know, call it the stupidity of the American voter or whatever, but basically that was really really critical to get anything to pass. And so, you know, its a second-best argument. Look, I wish Mark was right that we could make it all transparent, but Id rather have this law than not.

Well, gun control advocates were able to write up their own initiative (594) and put it on the ballot in Washington State. With what may turn out to be a 50-to-1 spending advantage ($9.5 million to what appears to be a couple hundred thousand ($1.7 million was spent on another gun initiative)), the initiative passed with just less than 60 percent of the vote. What this vote implies is that even under ideal circumstances with a massive campaign spending advantage and picking a liberal state where they thought that they would do well, slightly less than 60 percent of the voters supported the initiative. Why do gun control advocates feel it necessary to so greatly exaggerate support for their initiatives? It will be interesting to see if the 90 percent claim keeps being made.

Earlier this year, we noted that absolutely-running-for-President-while-pretending-to-think-about-it Hillary Clinton gave a stupid and vague non-answer answer to her position on government surveillance. It was the perfect politician's answer, refusing to really take a position that could be held against her at some point in the future. Except, on important issues, refusing to answer sometimes isn't an answer, and this is a perfect case of that. The leading contenders for the Republican nomination appear to have all made statements one way or the other, while Hillary has done everything possible not to take a position on the matter.

The CIA accessed the Senate's private network to (presumably) gain access to works-in-progress. This was denied (badly) by CIA director John Brennan. The CIA also claimed Senate staffers had improperly accessed classified documents and reported them to the DOJ, even though they knew the charges were false. Then, after Brennan told his agency to stop spying on the Senate, agents took it upon themselves to improperly access Senate email accounts. This is all gleaned from a few public statements and a one-page summary of an Inspector General's report -- the same unreleased report EPIC is currently suing the agency over.
Now, there's this: accusations that the CIA impersonated Senate staffers in hopes of accessing Torture Report documents. Certainly a believable accusation, considering the tactics it's deployed in the very recent past. This is being denied -- or, at least, talked around.

Last week, we got information from a source in the Executive Office of the President that the EOPs computer system had been down for, at that time, a week. Federal IT personnel evidently were having trouble identifying and fixing the problem that had brought the computer system down (although email and internet access had been restored), and EOP employees were instructed to say nothing about it. Scott followed up with posts here, here and here. He repeatedly emailed the White House press office, asking for information about the outage. The press office acknowledged receipt of his emails, but refused to answer his questions.

Honey Baked Ham has their half hams 50% off. The Honey Baked Hams are so tasty but they are a bit pricey. The 9lb. half ham is $37.50 shipped. If you look up the price of the 7-8lb. half ham you will see it is $70! So a 9lb. ham at $37.50 is certainly a deal for a Honey Baked Ham!

Cody Hogg was scared of dogs until Finnegan came into his life.
From the day his mother brought the friendly Chihuahua home, the dog was a member of Cody's family.
In fact, Finnegan was like "a really, really close brother," the 11-year-old Hamiltonian said.
But his one-year-old "brother" was killed over the Thanksgiving weekend when a woman was upset that the dog had apparently nipped at her pant legs and yanked at Finnegan's leash, snapping his neck.
Cody was walking Finnegan eastbound on Delaware Avenue near Main and Wentworth streets Saturday morning, just about a block away from his home, and passed by a woman going in the opposite direction.
Finnegan went over to the woman to say "Hi, I want to be your friend," but the passerby was not very pleased with the dog approaching her, Cody said.
The five-pound dog started biting at the stranger's pant legs, so she grabbed the retractable leash and tossed the animal, Cody's mother, Janis, said. "Being so tiny, he just flew … up in air and landed on road beside them," Janis, 45, said.
A family in a nearby car witnessed the incident, called police and kept the woman on the scene. A 34-year-old woman was charged with animal cruelty.
Staff Sergeant Deb Wilkie said the cruelty charge was a rare one, as these charges are usually for owners mistreating their own pets. "It takes a lot to snap (the neck). It's a fairly significant jerk on a leash," she said.
When police arrived at about 9:20 a.m., the dog was dead and the boy was crying, Wilkie said. "(He) was inconsolable."
After Cody told her the news, Janis ran to the spot on Delaware with her two sons, and the older one, 15-year-old Kyle, ran up ahead. When she got closer, she saw Kyle "crumpled" on the sidewalk in grief as he realized Finnegan, lying in a witness's arms, was gone.
Throughout the incident, the woman did not say anything at all, Cody said. If she had told him Finnegan was bothering her, he would have reined in his leash, the boy said. "Apparently she didn't feel like using her words; she felt like using her actions."
As the 11-year-old got ready to have Thanksgiving dinner Monday with his mother and Kyle, he still said he felt a mix of emotions. "I'm sort of really, really confused. Really, really angry at the same time. Really, really sad too."
"He was just so happy all the time to see whoever was there," Janis said. "He wanted affection." Every morning, Finnegan would leap from Kyle's bed and go to her room, jump onto her head and lick her face, she added.
Before Finnegan, Cody was afraid of dogs but now he loves all kinds of canines, she said. "This was part of the reason I wanted to get dogs … I got Finnegan and taught them that they're dog people."
Janis said she only wants the woman who was charged to realize what an effect her actions had on her children. "I don't know what her story is; I just want her to realize that she traumatized my boys … Finnegan is their baby."
Cody also just wanted the woman to learn a lesson more than anything else.
"I wouldn't (want to see) her sentenced to anything, even though she did take my dog," he said. "I would say … make her work at a dog shelter to let her know that dogs and cats and animals aren't such a bad thing after all."

PSU professor chronicles 1938 hurricane and how it laid claim to New England
Now a professor of meteorology at Plymouth State University, Aviles has made a hobby of hurricanes. And one in particular — the Great New England Hurricane of 1938 — intrigued her so much that she just wrote a book about it.
"Hurricanes are my thing, so when I came to New Hampshire, I started researching," Aviles said.
The 1938 storm was one of six large storms that are believed to have struck New England at full strength (three of which are from prehistoric times). The first great storm on record was in 1635; the second was in 1815.
"Back then, they didn't put out a warning until the hurricane was already starting. Even if they knew a hurricane was coming, they would hold off the warnings until they were absolutely certain and it was already happening," she said.
The hurricane also devastated the already depressed economic conditions. But lessons were learned from it.
"Nothing has ever compared to that storm, but as bad a storm or worse can happen again here," she said. "The chances of it are almost non-existent, but if you wait long enough, it will happen again."

Congressional Anti-Bullying Caucus Launches with Bipartisan Support
June 29, 2012 by HRC staff
Post submitted by Eric Cameron, HRC Digital Media Specialist
Yesterday marked the launch of the Congressional Anti-Bullying Caucus, a newly formed bipartisan caucus committed to the belief that "all communities deserve a safe environment to thrive."
Rep. Mike Honda (D-CA), a former educator who has consistently achieved a perfect ranking on HRC's Congressional Scorecard, is the founder and Chair of the CABC.
The caucus' mission is to protect victims and prevent bullying in all its forms, "from school bullying to elder abuse to LGBT discrimination." It is designed to provide a forum for individuals, agencies and Members of Congress to proactively respond to the underlying factors that lead to bullying.
According to HRC's recent survey of more than 10,000 LGBT youth, bullying remains one of the most significant problems LGBT youth face in their daily lives. Learn more at hrc.org/youth.

|SPRINGFIELD Cardiovascular diseases are the number one cause of death in the United States. On average, one American dies every 38 seconds of cardiovascular disease disorders of the heart and blood vessels. The American Heart Association estimates that the direct and indirect cost for cardiovascular disease and stroke in the U.S. for 2010 is $503.2 billion.
Early detection of life threatening heart disorders and other diseases is possible through the use of nuclear cardiology procedures performed within hospitals, outpatient centers and physicians' offices. While these tests are very helpful, there are many facets that contribute to an accurate diagnosis based on nuclear cardiology testing. The skill of the nuclear medicine technologist performing the examination, the type of equipment used, the background and knowledge of the interpreting physician and quality assurance measures are each critical to quality patient testing.
Pioneer Valley Cardiology in Springfield, has been granted a three-year term of accreditation in Nuclear Cardiology by the Intersocietal Commission for the Accreditation of Nuclear Medicine Laboratories (ICANL).
Accreditation by the ICANL means that Pioneer Valley Cardiology has undergone a thorough review of its operational and technical components by a panel of experts.
The ICANL grants accreditation only to those facilities that are found to be providing quality patient care, in compliance with national standards through a comprehensive application process including detailed case study review.
ICANL accreditation is a "seal of approval" that patients can rely on as an indication that the facility has been carefully critiqued on all aspects of its operations considered relevant by medical experts in the field of nuclear medicine. When scheduled for a nuclear medicine procedure, patients are encouraged to inquire as to the accreditation status of the facility where their examination will be performed and can learn more by visiting the ICANL Web site, www.icanl.org/icanl/main/patients.htm.

Minimum Wage Proposals Spark Disagreement
by Mark Friedman on Monday, Mar. 10, 2014 12:00 am
The Rev. Steve Copley, chair of Give Arkansas a Raise Now, said increasing the state's minimum wage to $8.50 an hour will help more than 168,000 Arkansas workers. Montine McNulty, executive director of the Arkansas Hospitality Association, said that if the minimum wage rises, restaurant owners would have two choices: lay off workers or raise the menu prices.

"Couldn't wait to sit in traffic"
The performance was great! Hearing the Italian characters and their accents perfectly portrayed really helps you hear the anguish, excitement and passion in their story!
The WHOLE thing! The setting, the descriptions, the fights-- the jokes!
I haven't listened to him before but I will LOOK for him now!
When Pasqualli returned to Amadea!
Loved it
"I wish this book had never ended."
Among the first five.
Pascale. Such a gentle, honest soul
Pascale. Loved the accent.
Pascale. So many things to learn from his life story.
Masterful writing, gorgeous performance. It was really a true pleasure to listen to it.
"Enjoyable story."
The story line and characters were engaging. I thought it was a poignant and thought provoking book that stayed enjoyable throughout.
"Ah, how refreshing!"
The narration by Edoardo Ballerini was just amazing, he has a true gift and brought the story to life.
Finally, an ending worth raving about! Seems I have been in a lull with good, unpredictable and satisfying endings but this did not disappoint!!
Visualizing Porto Vergogna, the author did a great job and the cover was very helpful too.
"Excellent, Beautiful Book"
Amazing book. Excellent reader. I finished it over a month ago and the characters still seem real to me. I love the interweaving storylines and the settings in both Europe and the U.S. Highly recommended.
"Masterpiece of Beautiful Story Telling.."
Loved This Book. Loved how all the stories are woven together. I Laughed and I Cried!!
"An Original Fabulous Story"
I loved, loved, loved this story - for several reasons. The character development. The narrator - fabulous narrator, makes me want to learn Italian and go to this quaint little village in Italy (although I believe it's fictional and doesn't exist). The characters - each with a great story. The surprises - characters and back stories were brought in that I was not expecting.
No murders (well sorta - read it and you will see what I mean). No violence (other than that one time but. . . . ). No sex. NOT ONE cuss word. (How refreshing - not that I couldn't watch my language a lot more!) No politics. A story that didn't relay on any of those things or gimmicks. A love story. A story about family. Lost love. Hollywood. Italy.
I don't really know what I was expecting but not something of this caliber. It's a story you want to to not stop listening to yet you don't want it to end. It's one of those stories where you feel personally involved with all the characters and it's a story that stays with you.
The narrator is superb. Because of him, and the story, this is one I know i will listen to again some day. The story is so pleasant and enjoyable. It was what I was looking for because I'd grown very tired of all the murders and gratuitous violence and sex. Usually I like a good murder mystery with a some sex, I'm not a prude, but I was just tired of bullets through the eye, back of the head blown off, detailed sexual encounters, you get my drift.
Read it before Hollywood ruins it with a movie cause you know they will make a movie out of it. It's that kind of great story.
It's never dull and has you waiting for what happens next.
Listen to it. I think you will love it. Now I have to buy it in hardcover because it's one I want on my bookshelf too!
"Walter's best yet"
I haven't been a fan of Jess Walter's sarcastic, too-clever writing style, but after reading reviews I gave this a try. Definitely his best work yet! Fascinating characters and storyline, and Walters uses the alternating past-present storyline to good effect.
The narrator does a fine job with one really irritating exception: toward the end of the book he mispronounces almost EVERY place name in the author's own home town (and mine). Really?!! Couldn't someone have consulted the author or checked this, seeing as its where the whole story comes together?
"A Love Story"
At least that's how Jess Walter's character Michael Dean would describe this novel. But he describes every story as a 'love story'. For me, Beautiful Ruins is a story I really loved. In fact it is a novel filled with stories. Even stories about stories.
This is not a book that keeps you on the edge of your seat the way a crime novel might. But it contains mystery and fascinating characters and wonderful locations and fabulous writing; all of which made this a 'driveway' Audible book for me (even when I've arrived home, I sit in my car in the driveway and keep listening).
Edoardo Ballerini is favoloso! His narration completely disappears, leaving only the characters in your mind, without any lingering traces of an actor reading.
The book is funny, sad, philosophical and simply wonderful.
"Incredible narration"
This is a clever and very intertaining bit of slightly historical fiction. Edoardo Ballerini's brilliant voice interpretation of the full range of characters is as entertaining as the book.
