Congress Looks Beyond Syria To Its Next Fight
Originally published on Wed September 11, 2013 6:18 pm
Now that Congress' extraordinary Syria debate is on hold, at least for now, the next upcoming drama is really a return to much more familiar territory: how will congressional leaders get enough votes to pass legislation to keep the government from going off yet another metaphorical cliff.
Until Wednesday, it looked like Congress was moving toward a vote this week to fund the government past September, when the fiscal year ends, and into December — thus avoiding a shutdown. But that vote was postponed until next week at the earliest.
The reason? Too many House conservatives who want to take more than a symbolic vote to defund the Affordable Care Act played hard to get, forcing House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., to pull the bill off the schedule.
The House has already voted 40 times to defund Obamacare. But all those past votes were symbolic since none had a prayer of getting past the Democratic-controlled Senate or President Obama.
That group of House conservatives insisted it wasn't going for its leadership's hocus-pocus anymore, however. It wants language to defund Obamacare included in the must-pass continuing resolution needed to keep the federal government from shutting down Oct. 1.
The representatives had the backing of conservative groups like Heritage Action and the Club for Growth, which added pressure on House Republicans by vowing to score how lawmakers voted on the legislative proposal as a "key vote."
Those House conservatives smelled victory Wednesday, a day after Tea Party members rallied in front of the U.S. Capitol on a horridly hot and humid day to insist on the defunding of Obamacare.
Rep. Tim Huelskamp, R-Kan., a particularly outspoken member of the House Tea Party Caucus, tweeted: "Shout out to @TPPatriots for planning the Exempt America rally. It worked! House leadership is pulling the trick bill that funded #ObamaCare"
What comes next is uncertain. "Presumably, we will vote on something next week. In order for them to get more votes from their right wing, we presume the bill gets worse" said Drew Hammill, communications director for Rep. Nancy Pelosi, the House Democratic minority leader.
Meanwhile, House Speaker John Boehner, Pelosi, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell are due to meet Thursday morning. In their first such get-together since the spring, they'll discuss the fiscal path forward, including the debt ceiling issue.

Jane Jamison From Uncoverage Has Passed Away
I met Jane Jamison from Uncoverage through the Jaz McKay show where she was also a guest. After looking at the excellent quality of her work, I asked her to be a co-blogger on Right Wing News and she started writing for RWN. Earlier this afternoon, tragically, I was alerted that Jane had passed away this week-end.
Jane was a very private person and I didn't know her all that well; so I can't give her the kind of eulogy she deserves. However, I was fortunate enough to meet her at an event and got to spend a little bit of time around her. I'm glad I did because I found her to be a dedicated conservative, a good person, and a joy to be around.
I am genuinely sorry to hear that Jane is no longer with us. I hope she rests in peace and my condolences go out to all of her family and friends.

French policy not dictated by ratings, Hollande says
- Tweet
- Share this
BRUSSELS Dec 14 (Reuters) - France runs its economic policy in the nation's best interests and not based on what credit ratings agencies say about it, French President Francois Hollande said on Friday, hours after Fitch Ratings kept its triple-A rating for the country.
"France does not determine its economic policy according to credit ratings agencies, it does it according to what is right for France," Hollande said after an EU leaders' summit in Brussels.
He said French borrowing costs had fallen since he came to office this year and that French debt is attractive.
Fitch is the only agency to retain an AAA rating on the euro zone's second-largest economy.

I'm going to generalize here but having been around academia most of my life (more than enough degrees and continuing education to choke a horse!) I am convinced of two things: one, diversity education is b***s*** as exampled by those twits in the white house and two, that science is a fraud. Academia lives by publish or perish–if a professor wants tenure and/or grant money they have to produce new and exciting research. How many times have we heard the news announce we're all going to die from some food, drink, toxin, etc? Everyday by my count–how many retractions–well none formally but the horror and fear subsides with the announcement of the next human hazard. And, do you know where that information comes from? Some liberal dumb **** presenting a thesis or dissertation for graduation. No one said it has to be "real" just original. Most times research doesn't even have to be quantified much less qualified. Then these academic liberal morons get to be called Dr. and Professor and all the young, gullible babies listen and believe their pontificating so we end up with JM's spewing hate and intolerance. And, they want this crap fed to them for free. This country really s*cks right now.

The only reason a person mounts a horse on the right side comes from the Calvary where the officers wore their sabre on their right hip. Depending on the horse's training the mounting wasn't the problem. The idiot owner didn't acclimate the horse to the dress. Also some horses know a novice rider the moment they touch the reins-then again the Gypsy may have just been being a free spirit. Bride was lucky she landed on sand–no permanent physical damage.

Having experienced diversity students first hand at a pseudo-ivy league college in Ohio–there was no need for barry to attend classes when all he had to do was threaten his professors with discrimination if he did not receive an A and credit for classes not attended. If the threat didn't get him his passing grade–going to the black student union to start a racial incident that would see the professor fired plus get that passing grade did the job.

Author Peter Schweizer says as a young lawyer in Chicago, Barack Obama played an important role in shifting the balance of power away from free-market forces – actions that continue to reverberate today.
"A lot of people are familiar with Barack Obama as a community activist, but people don't realize that he was very involved in litigation against banks," said Schweizer, a best-selling author whose latest book is "Architects of Ruin: How Big Government Liberals Wrecked The Global Economy – And How They Will Do It Again If No One Stops Them."
See Video: Author Peter Schweizer reveals Obama's radical roots - Click Here Now
Schweizer, a research fellow at the Hoover Institution, told Newmax.TV's Ashley Martella that in 1994, Obama "sued Citibank on behalf of several African-Americans who said that they had been denied mortgages by Citibank because of racism. Now, they freely admitted that they all had poor credit, but they argued that they were denied the credit – the home mortgages, in this case – because of racial discrimination. Barack Obama and two other attorneys filed suit, claiming that Citibank not only violated the Free Credit Act, but also violated the 13th Amendment to the Constitution, which was the constitutional amendment that abolished slavery.

"This was just one act that was replicated thousands of times by other lawyers and other activists who were convinced that the banking system was racist and we had to force them to, in effect, engage in affirmative action lending in order to bring equity to the financial system."
Schweizer also agreed that big business has been all too willing to see government intervention grow, as long as profits are protected or enhanced. He said this corporate complicity is a big part of the problem.
"Oh absolutely. There's no question. The Nobel-winning economist Milton Friedman once said there's a huge difference between being pro-business and pro-free market. What you've seen in American government policy toward Wall Street is pro-big business, pro the big Wall Street investment houses. So you have right now the Obama administration pushing legislation that will make it clear that certain investment houses are too big to fail; that we will bail them out if they get into trouble.
"The problem is, it's a little bit like if your teenage son comes home and has been arrested for DWI and you bail him out and you give him the keys to the car and you throw a couple six-packs in the back seat. What do you think he's going to do? If he has not been held responsible for what he's done, he's going to engage in more risky behavior. That's what we have on Wall Street, and you have this collaboration between the big firms on Wall Street and big government in Washington. They reinforce each other, and the American taxpayer – that's you and me – are required to foot the bill for all this speculation."
But Schweizer offers a solution to end what he calls the corruption of government-sponsored capitalism.
"I think the first thing you have to do is, the federal government in Washington has to take the position [that] nobody is too big to fail, and they have to make clear that if you speculate and you lose, you're going to lose shirt; we are not going to bail you out. Until Wall Street learns that they're going to continue to be as speculative as they have been. Capitalism should be about profit and loss. You profit if you make good investments, make wise choices and even speculate and are right. But if you're wrong, you over-leverage yourself, you take unnecessary risks, you're going to lose your shirt and we are not going to bail you out. Until that changes, we're going to continue to have these kind of financial bubbles in the future."
Schweizer also sees a parallel between the Beltway attitudes that led to America's financial meltdown, the current healthcare debate, and the looming insolvency of Medicare and Medicaid and Social Security.
"I think there's a huge parallel on a couple levels. First of all, you have people in Washington who believe they're very smart and that they can social engineer and fix very complex problems by simply passing some bills. And these are bills so complicated that they haven't even read them, they don't even understand them. The problem is, when you engage in this kind of social engineering, taking a complex problem like housing or healthcare, and say the government is going to fix it, you have all kinds of unintended consequences. And that is surely going to happen here. So there are enormous parallels. … We're going to continue to have these problems, and American prosperity and our economic choices are going to suffer."
Asked about his opinion of Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner, Schweizer was blunt.
"Well, the treasury secretary is really more of the same. I actually talk about it in 'Architects of Ruin' because those bailouts in the 1990s … Tim Geithner was involved in those as a Treasury Department official at the time and was a big supporter of them. So he embraces this mentality. So do other senior people in the Obama administration who have the same view, which is that you have to have this collaboration of big business and big government; they need to reinforce each other and they need to protect each other. So it's more of the same, and I think that the change that people thought might happen with the Obama administration on the financial front is not there. It's more of the same, and we can expect more of these financial bubbles in the future."

"Ordering and Creating my own graduation announcements started as a way to save money over Herff Jones' offering, and ended up being a beautiful quality announcement i would have purchased even if I hadn't saved half the cost of the school announcements. The picture quality and the card stock are wonderful! I will continue to order from Tiny Prints and recommend it to all my family and friends."
"The quality and design of this card is quite lovely in person! We've received so many compliments from friends and family! There were a few issues along the way, but James T. in customer service made sure everything was corrected and perfect upon arrival! Thanks again James!"
"We found this card most excellent. The design was clean, the layout was crisp, the photo resolution was excellent and the graphics were as pictured. Guests receiving it commented that it was beautiful.I added a picture to the back and text and this too was appropriately sized and looked amazing. I only have two thoughts, I wish the card dimensions were slightly larger and the design was so on trend that I wish they offered a matching thank you card in addition to the mailing labels! Oh and I used the super rush mailing option and the cards were in hand less than 48 hours after my hitting the submit button....that"s great shipping and customer service. I would definitely buy again and and would recommend this card and Tiny Prints to friends!"
"We received SO many compliments on this graduation announcement. These were a little bit more $, but really worth it. The option of putting a picture on the back made these very special and unique graduation cards. The quality of the paper is outstanding - it's actually like a keepsake because it's so nice you just want to frame it! The cardstock is heavy and gorgeous and the envelopes were high quality. Get the matching return address labels, and you really have a beautiful set to send to family and friends."
"I personalized this announcement for my MA announcement, and was able to get it in my school colors (purple and gold). The font options were good, with lots of variety to choose from. Tiny Prints proofed the announcement for me and caught a mistake which we were able to fix prior to printing without any extra cost or delay. The finished product was fantastic quality - good paper and crisp printing, with vibrant colors. I was very pleased, especially because I was able to order 2 times as many announcements for the same price this way (over the official graduation announcements from my university)"

.- The loose-knit group of hackers known as Anonymous have reportedly launched a second attack on the Vatican website, after failing in its initial attempt to bring the site down on March 7.
The latest attack on Monday has not yet been confirmed or denied by the Vatican. The vice director of the Holy See's Press Office, Father Ciro Benedettini, said the March 7 attack was not successful, as the hackers failed to post their distinctive logo on the Vatican website.
On March 12, the hackers stated on their Italian blog that they expect the Vatican to publicly excommunicate them. They accuse the Holy See of damaging public health with the antennas of Vatican Radio and also claim to have broken into the site's database.
According to the hackers, the attack was in "response to the doctrines, liturgies and absurd and out-dated precepts that your organization (Roman Apostolic Church) propagates and spreads throughout the world in the interests of profit."
Anonymous began in 2003 but achieved notoriety around 2009 through its attacks on the websites of important government institutions and businesses in diverse countries. The group claims the attacks are a form of legitimate protest.
The FBI was able to capture one of its leaders after another group leader, Hector Monsegur, offered to provide information to the agency in recent weeks.
Monsegur and other group members are accused of identity theft and stealing money from a U.S. financial entity.

Stick-thin women on TV need health warning, says expert
Psychologist believes seeing images of skinny performers affects the way women and girls eat.
Cher Lloyd's controversial selection over X Factor rival Gamu Nhengu isn't the only contentious thing about the ambitious talent show hopeful. Watching her stick-thin frame will have an impact on women's health, a new scientific paper claims.
Aric Sigman, a psychologist who wrote the report, is urging the Government to intervene over the prevalence of thin women on television because he believes there is clear evidence to show that the abundance of skinny women on screen has become a medical issue. He wants the Department of Health to issue "assertive guidance" on the impact of images on female health, claiming the effects are strong and immediate. The relationship between media and body image has previously been treated as a psychological, cultural or political debate – as opposed to biological.
"Of course one isn't blaming it [body dissatisfaction and eating disorders] entirely on the media, but it is a very powerful link in that chain and it has evaded the degree of importance that it has to accept," said Dr Sigman, who has collated research from across the globe for a paper in The Biologist, the journal of the Society of Biology. "The idea that the media is being used as a scapegoat and that it's the whipping boy of body dissatisfaction and eating disorders is not an acceptable riposte any more. Times have changed."
Dr Sigman, who believes children under three should not be allowed to watch TV, said images of thin women would always exist. But he claimed the "sheer number" of unnaturally thin women combined with the access girls had to images made it a "very significant health issue".
He said while it was easy to blame "extreme" catwalk models, it was "everyday" images of news readers, children's television presenters and talent show judges who were "deeply unrepresentative" of most British women that were dangerous to girls. Cher Lloyd's slender frame triggered renewed concerns over her health yesterday.
Dr Sigman said people may take the issue more seriously after studies identified the mechanisms by which "an actual image translates into a change in a way a woman feels and perhaps a change in the way that she then conducts her eating or exercise behaviour".
Studies have found immediate brain changes occur in confident and healthy women when they are exposed to images of thin females. "The parts of the brain involved with anxiety, unhappiness, self-loathing, pain, those sorts of things become highly activated in all of the women that they looked at," explained Dr Sigman, a fellow of the Society of Biology.
His paper also reveals that disturbed genes have been identified in eating disorders. As childhood distress is found to influence DNA and the way genes function, it is conceivable body dissatisfaction that starts early in girls or is prolonged may also influence DNA and disturb genes, which may then trigger eating disorders in susceptible individuals.
Susan Ringwood, chief executive of Beat, a charity for people with eating disorders and their families, welcomed research that could help people understand eating disorders have a strong biological basis. Approximately 1.4 million females in the UK have an eating disorder.
Ms Ringwood said images of thin people can be dangerous as they can make it harder for people with anorexia and bulimia to get better. The charity is particularly concerned by the use of dramatic images of emaciated people to illustrate stories about those with eating disorders.
"We think there are particular risks with a significant portion of people that these images are as dangerous to them as printing how many Paracetamol it takes to kill yourself to someone with suicidal intentions," she said.
Ms Ringwood does not want thin people banned from screens; instead she would welcome greater diversity. "The more we can see that we all come in different shapes and sizes would be helpful to everybody, including those at risk of these serious mental illnesses."

Sazerac suing Hood River Distillers |
| Print | |
Must Reads | |||
Tuesday, February 14, 2012 | |||
Sazerac is suing Hood River Distillers, alleging that its SinFire Cinnamon Whiskey violates its Fireball Whiskey trademark. New Orleans-based Sazerac, which owns three distilleries in Kentucky, wants a judge to stop Hood River Distillers from using the name SinFire and its label, which includes a serpent-like "S'' arising from a bed of fire. Sazerac says that label is too similar to its own label, which features a red fire-breathing demon with a serpent-like tongue spitting a ball of fire. Both labels feature a red, black and orange color scheme. Hood River Distillers, which bills itself as the largest and oldest producer of spirits in the Pacific Northwest, did not immediately return a message seeking comment Monday afternoon. Amy Preske, a Frankfort, Ky.-based spokeswoman for Sazerac, said the company does not comment on pending litigation. Read more at KGW. {biztweet}sazerac hood river{/biztweet}

These 3 men are the embodiment of what America was founded on. I have several friends who skydive and base jump. The irony is that they jumped off a tower with Freedom in its name, and nyc officials want to throw the book at them, when a 16 yo kid go up that tower past a sleeping guard and still no one was hurt. And i like the comment below, they can get 7 years but bankers get to continue raping the money form American citizens.
Published March 25, 2014
Watch the viral video on YouTube and you might understand why the lure of the forbidden was too great for three BASE jumpers who leaped from the top of New York's highest tower at the World Trade Center site last fall.
The three men were arraigned on Monday, after leaping from the 105th floor of the 1,776-foot-tall (541 meters) tower on September 30.
After dropping through the early morning darkness toward the glittering city, one jumper—who filmed his descent with a helmet camera—landed safely on the West Side Highway, which was devoid of traffic.
At the time, surveillance video captured two of the men landing near the offices of the Goldman Sachs investment bank in Lower Manhattan. But it took months of investigation to identify the flyers.
The men were charged with reckless endangerment, burglary, and BASE jumping in the incident. The criminal complaint says the landing created a "substantial risk of serious physical injury" to pedestrians and drivers below.
Thrills and Risks
BASE jumpers leap from buildings, cliffs, and bridges and plummet for a few minutes before unfurling a parachute (the name is an acronym for "building, antenna, span, and earth.") Though the World Trade Center daredevils landed safely, others have not been so lucky.
On Monday, a BASE jumper was found dead in Utah's Zion National Park, according to the Associated Press, after falling in a remote location in the park.
The month before, Amber Bellows died in Zion after jumping from the park's Mount Kinesava. Her parachute failed to open, and she fell 2,000 feet (610 meters).
BASE jumpers die much more frequently than skydivers, with a five- to eightfold increased risk of injury or death, according to a study of 20,850 jumps at a Norwegian mountain range popular with jumpers. Another analysis singled BASE jumping out as far riskier than any other sport. About 12 jumpers die each year worldwide.
"Flying Like a Bird"
The idea of jumping from a tower or other fixed object with a parachute is centuries old. But it wasn't until the 1970s that skydivers popularized the sport by leaping from El Capitan in Yosemite National Park. (See "Yosemite Climbing" in National Geographic magazine.)
"It's as close as human beings can get to flying like a bird," said J. T. Holmes of Squaw Valley, California, who has made about a thousand jumps using a wing suit that allows a longer glide and the ability to steer.
BASE jumpers avidly seek out sites that have never been jumped before.
In 2006, BASE jumper Jeb Corliss was arrested after he tried to scale the protective fence of the Empire State Building observation deck.
The World Trade Center jumpers arraigned Monday said they had no problem getting access to the building. "We just kind of walked in," one told the New York Times on Monday.

Alexandra Martin didn't believe in fairytales.
Alex has always been more interested in rocks and science than stories about princesses and magic. Now she's far too busy with her summer internship at the Gem and Mineral Museum to think about children's stories. Between avoiding her former best friend and high school baseball star, Luke Reed, and trying to hide her unrequited crush on her mentor at the museum, the real world is occupying all of her time.
Until she walked into one.
It turns out fairytales aren't all fun and games. A curse has turned her neat and orderly world upside down, and to break it, she bands together with a fellow intern and a recently awakened princess who's been asleep for almost 900 years. Can this trio of unlikely heroines put an end to an ominous enchantment, discover true love, and keep an ancient and evil magic from being unleashed on modern-day Los Angeles?
