My wish lists
The horse is made ready for the day of battle, but the victory belongs to the LORD.- Proverbs 21:31
Support them with prayer and fasting.
"Let God arise! Let His enemies be scattered! Let those who hate him flee before His Holy Face!" CLICK and say your Daily Offering!
Let us pray…
Grant unto thy Church, we beseech Thee, O merciful God, that She, being gathered together by the Holy Ghost, may be in no wise troubled by attack from her foes. O God, who by sin art offended and by penance pacified, mercifully regard the prayers of Thy people making supplication unto Thee,and turn away the scourges of Thine anger which we deserve for our sins. Almighty and Everlasting God, in whose Hand are the power and the government of every realm: look down upon and help the Christian people that the heathen nations who trust in the fierceness of their own might may be crushed by the power of thine Arm. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. R. Amen.Yes, Fr. Z is taking ads…
... and there will be nearly 1,000,000 page loads this month.A bit more food for thought…

Food For Thought
"The legalization of the termination of pregnancy is none other than the authorization given to an adult, with the approval of an established law, to take the lives of children yet unborn and thus incapable of defending themselves. It is difficult to imagine a more unjust situation, and it is very difficult to speak of obsession in a matter such as this, where we are dealing with a fundamental imperative of every good conscience — the defense of the right to life of an innocent and defenseless human being."- St. John Paul II
PLEASE RESPOND. Pretty pleeeease?

Variation A of Burda 7135 – a tailored jacket made from cotton African wax print.
Notched lapel collar, welt pockets.
Very flattering cut.
My first blazer – quite a challenging project. Collar & lapels look quite sloppy even after unpicking all of the pieces and re-sewing them a second time.
Hopefully my next jacket will benefit from my trials and tribulations with this one (such as melting the lining while ironing the cuff)!

Hi all, quick question about buying tickets from the Silverstone website.
Me and my partner are joining a group of friends who've already booked a weekend tickets with reserved grandstand seating and ideally we want to be sat with our friends. When in the process can you pick the seats for Sunday? Having tried a dummy order run, I had expected there to be a seating plan to pick the exact seats after having selected the block, but there doesn't seem to be an option. Can anyone help? I want to book my tickets before the early bird offer ends on 31 August.

It's one of the most vexing — yet explainable — questions homeowners/property taxpayers face: How can it be that my home's value has gone down but my property tax bill has gone up?
There are a fair amount of moving parts in the answer, but the quick take is that Proposition 2 1/2, the state's property tax limitation law, allows a community to increase its overall property tax collection (also known as a tax levy) by 2.5 percent, no matter what happens with valuations.
Some communities manage their budgets such that they wind up increasing the tax levy by less than 2.5 percent, but most communities, faced with rising costs, increase the property tax collection by 2.5 percent annually.
Communities with new growth in the tax base are allowed to increase their tax levy above 2.5 percent to reflect the tax that can be collected on new construction. The tax levy may increase by more than 2.5 percent in communities that adopt Proposition 2 1/2 overrides, or in communities that have yet to reach their tax levy limit.
It is also true that an individual homeowner's property tax bill may increase more than 2.5 percent because of changes in property values.
DOR's Division of Local Services has a wealth of information on property taxes and property assessment in its Municipal Data Bank. You can see how your town's tax rates stack up against those in other towns, review average single family tax rates, and see if your community is taxing up to its levy limit.

I am ashamed to give this company even 1 star. Customer Service is terrible. They are all indian or polish, internet is the worst I have ever witnessed. I like to play games and it's just impossible to play games. I had to call them up 3 times with in just 3 weeks of being with them. the internet shouldnt have the privilege of being called internet. It's absolutely absurd, I am ashamed to tell people I'm with EE because it's just a mess of a company. I cannot believe they have the cheek to call themselves best internet in UK ! >DON'T GO WITH THEM< |

Switched from Sky. Worst mistake I ever made. Horrible customer service. Tried contacting them regarding poor internet speed (could not even open a browser window-much less video call family abroad). Never solved the issue. Insulted and verbally abused by them. They wouldn´t let me cancel. Kept transfering me to tech service. Finally paid early cancellation penalty and back to sky. Should have never left Sky. |

As of January 2015 I am proud to have added 'Stella and Dot stylist' to my fashion resume and honestly I could not be more excited. Now, I know what some of you may be thinking.
Now I can practically hear a few of you naysayers through the computer screen. You've probably heard about the line in passing or think you know kinda/sorta what it is about. Well let me assure you whatever 'just another home party thing' is floating around in your brain, it is not the case with this fabulous and fun line. It is sold at home trunk shows/events, that part is true. But it's also sold on my website and is not the cheese factor that some other independent jewelry companies (a lady doesn't name names) are. And the best part? With a ridiculous amount of items under $50 it fits right into my glam girl on a budget.
I have been approached by a lot of at home companies (and some not at home companies) to promote their products but have declined most every one. The reason this brand not only had me saying yes but actually got me excited to share my styling tips is that the pieces they design are actually perfectly on trend and GORGEOUS. The quality is sensational, the range from classic to over the top is perfect and where else are you going to find an engraveable and 100% unique pendant, a statement necklace you can style both different ways AND different lengths, and a celeb favorite bracelet all at the same online boutique?
Stella and Dot's one of a kind collections are designed by celebrated New York designers and have been featured in Gossip Girl, In Style and Lucky Magazine as well as on the wrists and necklines of today's hottest celebrities. Who, you ask?
Of the above, I gotta say I'm giving Katy, Vanessa and Amy a huge filthy cute seal of approval as they are sporting some of my favorite pieces from the S&D collection.
All three pieces are still available for purchase at www.stelladot.com/filthycutexo
I've sorting through my spring line and styling these fabulous pieces like crazy so I can put together a spring must have post for all you lovely fashionistas. Stay tuned for that in the next week or so and in the meantime check out the shop and let me know what your favorites and must haves are.

ASHRAE issued a new standard on the design of buildings with adequate moisture-control features. The ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 160, Criteria for Moisture Design Analysis in Buildings, formulates design assumptions for moisture-design analysis and criteria for acceptable performance, the organization said.
"If the designer elects to perform a design moisture analysis, the standard requires he or she to think about the interior conditions that will be maintained in the building and the effect that may have on building envelopes," said Anton TenWolde, chairman of the committee that wrote the standard. "The standard provides a methodology for the first time to make consistent design recommendations, such as the need, type, and placement of vapor barriers in any climate."
The standard introduces criteria to handle rain, wind, and other exterior moisture weather loads, ASHRAE said. Information on purchasing the standard is available on the website located at www.ashrae.org/bookstore.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

BEAUMONT - By Megan Dillard - Just days after a man tried to help a homeless person find a place to live, he's back on the street.
The "good Samaritan" blames the system.
We first brought you this story last week.
Kenneth Brown found 55-year-old Alvin Meier sleeping outside the Hospitality Center in Port Arthur.
Brown took Meier to the social security office and then to a nursing home in Vidor where he could have stayed, depending on his medical history.
From the nursing home, Brown and a woman on the nursing home staff took Meier to Christus Hospital Saint Elizabeth in Beaumont for an evaluation from a doctor.
It wasn't until several days later Brown learned when he called to check on Meier that he'd been released from the hospital and taken to the Salvation Army.
The Salvation Army confirmed with KFDM news that Meier did stay at the shelter then left the next morning on his own.
Brown says no one told him or the worker from the nursing home that Meier was released from the hospital until he made the phone call.
He argues he's the one who brought Meier there for treatment and therefore felt he should be kept in the loop when it comes to his care.
"It's kind of made things difficult because in one sense when you try to help someone, you don't receive all the information that you're supposed to have to move forward to help them so they kind of fall through the cracks and they're kind of left out stuck. As far as the laws, I don't know anything about the laws. All I know it it's not working."
KFDM reached out to Jefferson County Judge Jeff Branick to find out what role, if any, the county plays in helping with situations like this one.
Judge Branick explained although written to protect people, "the mental health laws are full of provisions on privacy and they sometimes work to the detriment of the patient."
We also spoke with Janna Fulbright at the Spindletop Center in Beaumont.
The organization helps people with mental health concerns as well as those who are seeking information about crisis management and other issues.
"You can't always talk to other people and say, you know, I brought this person in to say, the Baptist Behavioral Health unit, or I referred him to you guys at Spindletop and he said he would go, did he go. We can't divulge that sort of thing. But it doesn't always help a good Samaritan who really wants to check up on somebody they were trying to help."
We took a look at the HIPAA laws listed on the website for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
Under the section listed "Who can look at and receive your health information" it says, "Your information can be used and shared with your family, relatives, friends, or others you identify who are involved with your health care, or your health care bills, unless you object."

China Reports Weak September Imports
Imports of iron ore fell 11.8% from a year earlier, imports of rubber were down 22.8% and those of steel products were off 16.2%, according to the General Administration of Customs of China.
The slump has raised the risk of politically dangerous job losses and possible unrest, but the government says the economy still is creating jobs because service industries such as retailing are still relatively strong.
Total trade for the first three quarters grew 6.2%, the customs agency said. That makes it increasingly unlikely China can hit the official 10% target for the year as global demand weakens.
Despite the global weakness, exports set a new monthly record of $186.3 billion. Imports were $158.7 billion. The global trade surplus was $27.6 billion, this year's second biggest after June's $31.7 billion.
China's trade surplus with the 27-nation European Union, its biggest trading partner, contracted by 18.6% to $10.5 billion as European demand for Chinese goods weakened. Exports to Italy fell 26% and those to Germany by 8.7%. The politically sensitive trade surplus with the U.S. grew 6% to $21.1 billion. ___ Online: General Administration of Customs of China: www.customs.gov.cnCheck Out Our Best Services for Investors

MIAMI BEACH, Fla. - Justin Bieber's mug shot hints at the boy-next-door image he's carefully crafted over the past several years, with a glistening smile and professionally upswept hair.
But the red jail jumpsuit also visible in the photo tells a different story, one about the singer's recent troubles and emergence as a bad boy. The 19-year-old pop star is facing possible jail time after his arrest in Florida on charges of driving under the influence, resisting arrest and driving with an expired license.
Still, as he has been so many times since achieving stardom at age 15, Bieber was swarmed by crowds of news media and screaming young girls as he left jail Thursday afternoon. He popped through a window of his black SUV in a black hoodie and sunglasses to wave back.
Police said they arrested a bleary-eyed Bieber — smelling of alcohol — after officers saw him drag-racing before dawn Thursday on a palm-lined residential street in Miami Beach, his yellow Lamborghini travelling at nearly twice the speed limit.
He was arrested early Thursday with R&B singer Khalil Amir Sharieff, after police saw them racing two luxury vehicles down the street at 4:09 a.m., with two other vehicles apparently being used to block off the area.
The 19-year-old singer later admitted smoking marijuana, drinking and taking a prescription medication, police said.
Police Chief Ray Martinez said the singer was initially not co-operative when the officer pulled him over. Martinez said the singer also had an expired Georgia driver's license.
Police said Bieber was driving the Lamborghini and Sharieff was driving a Ferrari. Both cars were towed. Police say Bieber was clocked at nearly double the area's 30-mph speed limit near a high school, youth centre, golf course, city firehouse and small apartment buildings.
According to the arrest report, Bieber "had slow deliberate movements" and appeared to be in a stupor when the officer ordered him to exit his vehicle. Bieber was arrested after repeatedly refusing to put his hands on his vehicle so the officer could pat him down to look for weapons, the report said. It says he cursed several times at the officer and demanded to know why he was being arrested. At one point, Bieber said to an officer: "What the f--- did I do, why did you stop me?"
Bieber failed a field sobriety test and was taken to the Miami Beach police station for a Breathalyzer, police said. Results haven't been released.
"I think this case will proceed hopefully as any other case would proceed," said Bieber's attorney, Roy Black, whose other celebrity clients have included Rush Limbaugh and William Kennedy Smith.
Under Florida law, people under the age of 21 are considered to be driving under the influence if they have a blood-alcohol content of 0.02 per cent or more — a level the 5-foot-9, 140-pound star could reach with one drink.
For a first driving under the influence offence, there is no minimum jail sentence and a maximum of six months, a fine of $250 to $500, and 50 hours of community service. For anyone under 21, there is an automatic six-month licence suspension.
A Miami-Dade County judge set Bieber's bond at $2,500 Thursday afternoon. Sharieff's bond was set at $1,000 for a driving under the influence charge.
Bieber reportedly spent far more money at a Miami strip club Monday night, when the King of Diamonds club tweeted that Bieber ordered $75,000 in dollar bills. The club's operator later acknowledged that was an exaggeration and that the singer only stayed about an hour.
Bieber and his large entourage were escorted to a closed-off section of the club. They enjoyed the dancers and ordered a large amount of bottled water, but no alcoholic beverages were sold to them, said Ricky (Disco Rick) Taylor in a statement.
"He had a lot of fun," Taylor said. "We hope he returns again."
The Canadian-born Bieber was only 15 when his platinum-selling debut "My World" was released. His brand was clean-cut and charming, earning him an invitation to sing for President Barack Obama and his family at Christmas. But his image tarnished as he got older.
Bieber has been accused of wrongdoing in California but has never been arrested or charged. He is currently under investigation in a felony vandalism case after a neighbour reported the pop star threw eggs at his house and caused thousands of dollars of damage.
A neighbour had previously accused Bieber of spitting in his face, and a paparazzo called deputies after he said Bieber kicked him, but prosecutors declined to file charges in either instance. He was also accused of reckless driving in his neighbourhood, but in October prosecutors refused to seek charges because it was unclear whether Bieber was driving.
His arrest in Miami is unlikely to affect the egg-throwing investigation, which included nearly a dozen detectives searching Bieber's home last week searching for video surveillance and other evidence that could be used to pursue a vandalism charge.
Bieber is also being sued by a former bodyguard who says the singer repeatedly berated him, hit him in the chest and owes him more than $420,000 in overtime and other wages. The case is scheduled to go to trial in Los Angeles next month.
Bieber's arrival in Florida earlier this week also is under investigation. Authorities in the suburban Miami city of Opa-locka are investigating whether the singer was given a police escort when he landed Monday at the Opa-locka Executive Airport.
Police escorts from the airport are not uncommon, but they must follow procedure because they involve city vehicles, Assistant City Manager David Chiverton said. Administrators had not authorized any escort for Bieber in this case.
Despite all his legal troubles, the charges against Bieber likely won't put him at risk of being deported or denied entry into the U.S. According to U.S. immigration law, authorities generally do not revoke an individual's visa unless the person has been convicted of a violent crime or has been sentenced to more than one year imprisonment.

Route 28 north closing tonight; reopening late Saturday afternoon.
Both Route 28 northbound lanes will be closed at the 31st Street Bridge at 8 tonight until 5 p.m. Saturday as road crews replace and repave sections of the existing roadway.
Northbound traffic will be detoured across the bridge on to Penn Avenue. Motorists will then bear left onto Butler Street, then cross the 40th Street Bridge before turning right toward Millvale and back on to /route 28.
Southbound lanes will not be affected, according to PennDOT spokesman Steve Cowan.
Access to the 31st Street Bridge will be blocked from Penn and River avenues in the opposite direction.
Signs will be posted to guide motorists along the detour route from those streets toward Route 28 via the 16th Street Bridge.
The work is part of the fourth phase of PennDOT's $120 million project set to run through late next year.

[Effects of salicylic acid on synthesis of rosmarinic acid and related enzymes in the suspension cultures of Salvia miltiorrhiza].
College of Life Sciences, Northwest Agriculture and Forestry University, Yangling 712100, Shaanxi, China.

ABSTRACT: Salicylic acid (SA) is an elicitor to induce the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites in plant cells. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) plays an important role as a key signaling molecule in response to various stimuli and is involved in the accumulation of secondary metabolites. However, the relationship between them is unclear and their synergetic functions on accumulation of secondary metabolites are unknown. In this paper, the roles of SA and H2O2 in rosmarinic acid (RA) production in Salvia miltiorrhiza cell cultures were investigated. The results showed that SA significantly enhanced H2O2 production, phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) activity, and RA accumulation. Exogenous H2O2 could also promote PAL activity and enhance RA production. If H2O2 production was inhibited by NADPH oxidase inhibitor (IMD) or scavenged by quencher (DMTU), RA accumulation would be blocked. These results indicated that H2O2 is secondary messenger for signal transduction, which can be induced by SA, significantly and promotes RA accumulation.TheScientificWorldJournal. 01/2014; 2014:843764.

Absurd and Hilarious
Posted by Richard Warnick in 2016 Elections, Economy, Equality, National Politics, Republicans on January 15, 2015
"We have serious problems to solve, and we need serious people to solve them. And whatever your particular problem is, I promise you, Bob Rumson is not the least bit interested in solving it. He is interested in two things, and two things only — making you afraid of it, and telling you who's to blame for it. That, ladies and gentlemen, is how you win elections. You gather a group of middle age, middle class, middle income voters who remember with longing an easier time, and you talk to them about family, and American values and character…" — President Andrew Shepherd, "The American President" (1995)
See if you can guess whose website the following statement is taken from.
"Millions of our fellow citizens across the broad middle class feel as if the American Dream is now out of their reach; that our politics are petty and broken; that opportunities are elusive; and that the playing field is no longer fair or level. Too many of the poor have lost hope that a path to a better life is within their grasp. While the last eight years have been pretty good ones for top earners, they've been a lost decade for the rest of America. We are not leading – at home or abroad."
1. Elizabeth Warren
2. Robert Reich
3. John Ellis ("Jeb") Bush
If you guessed #3, you're right. Tea-GOPers considering a 2016 presidential run — including, incredibly, Willard ("Mitt") Romney — are now claiming to care about fairness and equality for the struggling American middle class. Nothing could be funnier than right-wing politicians when they emerge from their country clubs and corporate boardrooms every four years, and try to pretend they're on the side of the 99 Percent. What's next, Guy Fawkes masks?

Apocalypse Not Now
Posted by Richard Warnick in 2012 Elections, Capitalism, Deficit, Democrats, Economy, Federal Budget, National Politics, Republicans, Rush Limbaugh, Tax Policy, Unemployment on January 1, 2015
"White House Down" (2013)
Via Think Progress.
Remember all those Tea-GOP predictions about what 2015 would be like if President Obama's doomed Marxist regime was allowed keep running the country into the ground?
- Newt Gingrich, running for the GOP nomination in 2012, predicted that if Obama was re-elected gas would be "$10 a gallon." Gingrich promised $2.50 gas if he was elected.
- In September 2012, Mitt Romney predicted that if Obama was re-elected "you're going to see chronic high unemployment continue four years or longer." At the time, the unemployment rate was 8.1%. Romney pledged that, if elected, he could bring the unemployment rate down to 6% by January 2017.
- On Bloomberg TV, Marc Faber predicted that, because of Obama's reelection, the stock market would drop at least 20%. Faber joked that investors seeking to protect their assets should "buy themselves a machine gun."
- Rush Limbaugh predicted that "the country's economy is going to collapse if Obama is re-elected." Limbaugh was confident in his prediction: "There's no if about this. And it's gonna be ugly. It's gonna be gut wrenching, but it will happen."
Today, the nationwide average for a gallon of gas is $2.24. The unemployment rate currently stands at 5.8% and has been under 6% since September 2014. The Dow Jones Industrial Average currently stands at 17,823 and is up over 35% since Obama was reelected. The Dow has climbed more than 10,000 points during the Obama administration. The U.S. economy grew at a robust 5% in the 3rd quarter of 2014, following 4.6% growth in the second quarter.
Why couldn't the Tea-GOP predict declining wages? People who work for a living need a raise, badly.
Normalizing Relations With Cuba
Posted by Richard Warnick in Foreign Policy, National Politics, Republicans, Socialism on December 19, 2014
…and you are the kind of person who likes REALLY wild street parties, you want to get to Miami now.
Dave Barry, 2006
Communist holdout Cuba has long been ground zero for American dirty tricks (up to and including a military invasion in 1961). The CIA has tried to kill Fidel Castro so many times, he once said, "If surviving assassination attempts were an Olympic event, I would win the gold medal."
The USA-only 54-year economic embargo of Cuba has hampered the ability of Cuban-Americans to help relatives on the island, and prohibited trade.
Automakers, agricultural conglomerates and telecommunications companies are among those that have long eyed Cuba as fertile territory. The country has nickel deposits and offshore oil reserves, and it produces widely coveted cigars. Only 5 percent of the population has access to the full Internet.
Meanwhile, its tropical climate and abundant beaches have made it a popular destination for Canadian and European tourists, just as it was for Americans before the 1959 revolution. Cruise companies, airlines and hotel operators are among those poised for the moment that Congress might lift the embargo.
Well, now it looks like sanity has prevailed at last.
"Today, the United States of America is changing its relationship with the people of Cuba," Obama said at the White House. "Neither the American nor Cuban people are well served by a rigid policy that's rooted in events that took place before most of us were born."
Every morning MSNBC's Cuban-American anchor José Diaz Balart brings on die-hard anti-Castro guests, some of whom suffered in Cuban jails as political prisoners. They don't want normalization while Fidel and his brother Raul stubbornly live on. But a new generation of Cuban-Americans tend to vote for Democrats, and in 2012, President Obama won a majority of the Cuban-American vote.
Public Strongly Supports Opening Relations with Cuba
A new poll finds 68 percent in favor of ending the trade embargo with Cuba, and 74 percent support ending the travel restrictions to allow Americans to visit the island.
More Awfulness From Congress
Posted by Richard Warnick in Bernie Sanders, congress, Corporate Socialism, Democrats, Disaster, National Politics, Public Lands, Republicans on December 14, 2014
Hell no, we won't go!!
The must-pass National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) contains a 449-page package of public lands riders. As you might expect from this Congress, it's a stinker full of corporate giveaways. It transfers 110,000 acres of our public lands into private ownership. Part of the Tonto National Forest in Arizona will be given to Rio Tinto for a copper mine, including sacred Apache lands. Coal reserves in the Bull Mountains of Montana will be given to Great Northern Properties, a Houston-based coal company. Sealaska Corporation gets 70,000 acres of the Tongass National Forest for clear-cutting timber that used to belong to all Americans.
There's a stealth provision removing existing Wilderness Study Area (WSA) protections for two areas in eastern Montana, without any public input whatsoever.
The legislation also mandates automatic renewals of livestock grazing on our public lands, even where grazing operations are degrading wildlife habitat and fouling streams and rivers — without the evaluation under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) that's currently required. The so-called "Grazing Improvement Act" also automatically extends grazing permits on public lands from 10 to 20 years. The exemption of grazing permits from NEPA basically puts public land management agencies out of business with regard to ecosystem management. That is a heavy hit with far-reaching consequences.
Ten right-wing Tea-GOPers including Tom Coburn of Oklahoma had objected to including parks and wilderness bills in a defense bill. They were joined by Democratic Senators Jeff Merkeley (OR), Ron Wyden (OR), and Kirsten Gillibrand (NY) and Independent Bernie Sanders (VT). On December 11, the Senate voted 85-14 to break the filibuster.
As a "Christmas tree" bill enjoying widespread bipartisan support, the NDAA passed the House by a vote of 300-119 last Thursday and the Senate by 89-11 yesterday. The package of legislation is expected to be signed by the President soon.
On the plus side, the NDAA riders would add 250,000 acres to the National Wilderness Preservation System, establish or expand national parks, and designate more than 100 miles of Wild and Scenic Rivers. But the losses far outweigh the wins.

Senator Elizabeth Warren: Who Does Congress Work For?
Posted by Richard Warnick in Bailout, congress, Corporate Socialism, Corruption, Democracy, Economy, National Politics, Republicans on December 11, 2014
Wall Street wants to get bailed out by taxpayers AGAIN, the next time they recklessly crash our financial sector with risky derivatives. This could cause the next Great Depression. Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) is trying to stop them, even though the Tea-GOP is threatening to shut down the federal government (in less than five hours) if a Dodd-Frank repeal proposal written by Citigroup lobbyists doesn't pass.
Here We Go Again
Posted by Richard Warnick in Economy, Federal Budget, National Politics, Republicans, Tea Party on December 3, 2014
The question is, with Republican control of both houses of Congress, is our government becoming more dysfunctional or less dysfunctional? During his re-election campaign, incoming Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell threatened a string of government shutdowns. Right-wing Republican House members think they have 30 to 40 "no" votes on a government funding bill proposed by Speaker John Boehner, which is enough to shut down the government again.
The government will run out of spending authority on December 11 unless Congress passes a continuing resolution.
Lots of observers are saying, "Last year's government shutdown was politically disastrous for Republicans." But was it really? It cost us $24 billion in lost economic activity, but what did the Tea-GOP lose? Economic sabotage has been a winning strategy for them.
December 11, 9:30 am — A little over 12 hours to go until government shutdown. The $1.014 trillion Consolidated and Further Continuing Appropriations Act (HR 83) has been dubbed "CRomnibus" as it is a combined continuing resolution (CR) and omnibus spending bill. There are so many controversial measures tucked into this legislation that it's hard to list them all. The main point of contention is the de-regulation of Wall Street investment banks, allowing them to trade in risky derivatives using taxpayer-guaranteed deposits (what could possibly go wrong?). Page 1,599 of the bill effectively kills what's left of the McCain-Feingold campaign finance reform. There's much, much more — bad for the average American, bad for the environment, and great for the 1 Percent. Remember everything in this legislation is a surprise because none of it was debated openly and no hearings have been held.
House Dems are being told that they have to vote for this stinker, otherwise the Tea-GOP will come up with something worse after they take over the Senate next year. Some, for example Senator Elizabeth Warren, say the CRomnibus ought to be replaced by a stopgap spending bill. IMHO even a government shutdown at midnight would be preferable to passing this bill.
Seriously? Utah's Plan To Seize Public Lands Would Cost $280 Million A Year
Posted by Richard Warnick in Budget, Energy, Environment, National Parks, Public Lands, Republicans, The Constitution, Utah Legislature, Utah Politics on December 2, 2014
The right-wing Utah legislature began a legal battle to steal our public lands when Gov. Gary Herbert signed HB 148, the "Transfer of Public Lands Act and Related Study" in March 2012. Supposedly, if the federal government does not turn over title to 31.2 million acres of land by the end of this month the State of Utah will spend millions of dollars of our tax money on a ridiculous lawsuit. HB 148 is utterly unconstitutional according to the Property Clause (U.S. Const. art. IV, sec. 3, cl. 2.), the Utah Constitution (Article III), and illegal under Section 3 of the Utah Enabling Act.
We found out yesterday that a theoretical takeover of public lands by the State of Utah would place a heavy burden on the state budget.
A study released Monday by researchers at three Utah universities found that transferring national forests and other public lands to the state of Utah would cost taxpayers at least $280 million per year — a price tag that could only be paid if the state were able to increase drilling and mining, seize energy royalty payments that are owed to U.S. taxpayers, and, if energy prices remain low, raise taxes to pay for the shortfall.
Here's the right-wing "plan": Fire 5,000 or so federal employees, abolish all of our national forests and national parks, and turn over Utah public lands to the corporations– particularly the oil and gas industry and the tar sands industry. These are the same legislators who slashed the Utah Division of State Parks and Recreation budget by nearly 80 percent. What could possibly go wrong?

One third of U.S. women dye their hair at home, according to Clairol. Join the crowd (and save cash!) with this crash course for expert results.
Shop smarter. Consider your goal. If you want to brighten highlights, grab a kit with neutral or natural in the name; these shades balance out any orangeness the sun gives to lighter tones. To mute brassy hues, opt for an ash color to help cancel out copper. Add hints of red and blonde by reaching for auburn or gold (respectively), says Jason Backe, a colorist in NYC for Clairol.
Apply strategically. Section by section, move the dye from roots down the shaft with a fine-tooth comb, stopping where your old color begins. (Never dyed before? Go all the way to ends.) For permanent shades, subtract five minutes from the processing time in the directions, and set a stopwatch. When it beeps, use what's left of the color to tint pre-dyed hair. Rinse after five minutes.
