Congressman Mac Thornberry shared his thoughts with us on Monday on the proposed agreement with Iran.
Forty-seven Republican Senators have signed an open letter to Iran warning that any nuclear agreement they sign may not survive past the Obama administration.
Iran has no intention of building a nuclear weapon, and the sooner the world recognizes that, the sooner there will be a deal aimed at curbing its nuclear capabilities.
Russia reportedly is prepared to change its stand on Iran nuclear talks in a high-stakes gamble to counter expanded sanctions by the United States and the European Union over Crimea.
Reaction to new nuclear deal is mixed in Washington.
Iran defeated the United States in the fourth round of the Wrestling World Cup Thursday.
Iran said Monday it has successfully sent a monkey into space, describing the launch as another step toward Tehran's goal of a manned space flight.
A US deadline was set today for Iran to start cooperating with the UN's nuclear watchdog.

McDonald's To Post Calories On Menu Boards
Beginning next week, McDonald's plans to add calorie counts to its menu boards — both at drive-thrus and restaurant counters. Studies suggest that calorie boards alone don't change consumers' purchasing patterns. But consumers do seem to take note, and public health experts say it's one tangible step to helping consumers make healthier choices.

STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN -- (Marketwire) -- 12/10/12 -- Juniper Networks (NYSE: JNPR), the industry leader in network innovation, today announced that Klarna, a Swedish e-commerce company that provides payment services for online storefronts, has built its new data center based on the Juniper Networks® QFabric architecture. Klarna has deployed a QFX3000-M QFabric System, a high scale network fabric, to ensure the company can manage increased demand for capacity, scalability and flexibility as the volume of online payment data grows by significant amounts each month.
Klarna creates secure and simple ways to shop online, allowing sellers and buyers around the world to transact with each other smoothly and seamlessly. The company has an established presence in six European countries, and with ambitions to expand both within and outside Europe in the future.
News Highlights
- Klarna selected the Juniper Networks QFabric System, the industry's only one-tier flat network fabric, over competing solutions due to its energy efficiency, scalability and operational simplicity. By reducing the number of managed switches to just one, the QFabric deployment has dramatically simplified the management and cost-effectiveness of Klarna's data center.
- The QFX3000-M delivers extremely fast server-to-server speed for Klarna, with 63 percent smaller footprint, 74 percent fewer cables and 57 percent less power consumption than competitive solutions.
- The QFX3000-M is composed of QFX3500 and QFX3600 QFabric Nodes, which provide entry into the fabric; QFX3600-I QFabric Interconnects, which connect the Node devices in a flat, any-to-any architecture; and QFX3100 QFabric Directors, which provide management and control services, enabling the entire system to operate as a single switch.
- The QFX3000-M is designed for mid-sized data centers, satellite data centers and space-constrained environments supporting from 48 to 768 10GbE ports, delivering improvements in scale, simplicity and performance.
- Klarna's QFabric-based data center was designed, installed and supported by Juniper Networks' Stockholm-based partner, IPnett, a supplier of communication and security solutions and systems integrator in all the Nordic countries.

Wearable technology was dominant at this year's International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) , and MWC was no exception to this trend.

The most dramatic difference at MWC was an emphasis on presenting wearables as fashion accessories and moving away from the original clunky technology associated with t...

"The science that Willie Soon does is almost pointless." - NASA climate scientist Gavin Schmidt, to the New York Times
Recent revelations regarding Smithsonian scientist ...read more
Climate scientist Peter Gleick has acknowledged that he was the person who convinced the Heartland Institute to hand over the contents of its January Board package, authenticating the documents beyond a doubt and further exposing the disinformation campaign Heartland has pursued in the last week, trying to discredit the information.
In the Huffington Post tonight, Gleick reported that he had received the controversial Climate Strategy document from an anonymous source earlier this year and said that he attempted to confirm whether the contents were true. Gleick went on:
In an effort to do so, and in a serious lapse of my own and professional judgment and ethics, I solicited and received additional materials directly from the Heartland Institute under someone else's name. The materials the Heartland Institute sent to me confirmed many of the facts in the original document, including especially their 2012 fundraising strategy and budget. I forwarded, anonymously, the documents I had received to a set of journalists and experts working on climate issues. I can explicitly confirm, as can the Heartland Institute, that the documents they emailed to me are identical to the documents that have been made public. I made no changes or alterations of any kind to any of the Heartland Institute documents or to the original anonymous communication. [emphasis added]
So, while admitting that he impersonated a third party in order to induce Heartland to confirm its own ongoing questionable conduct, Gleick has effectively caught Heartland squarely in the headlights, proving that the Institute has dissembled and lied.
Whistleblowers - and that's the role Gleick has played in this instance - deserve respect for having the courage to make important truths known to the public at large. Without condoning or promoting an act of dishonesty, it's fair to say that Gleick took a significant personal risk - and by standing and taking responsibility for his actions, he has shown himself willing to pay the price. For his courage, his honor, and for performing a selfless act of public service, he deserves our gratitude and applause.
Heartland, in the meantime, deserves to be stripped of its charitable status and laughed out of the professional "think tank" fraternity for its amateurishness and the far-less-than-credible position that it has taken in the last week, denying its own responsibility in this "leak," dissembling about the origin of the material and going out of its way to "fail" to authenticate documents that it knew all along were legitimate.
Peter Gleick is not a member of the 4th estate.
Thank you for sharing your opinion with us. That is most appreciated. However, it may be that you were mis-informed.
For example, it seems that your rather harsh opinion on Naomi Klein may have originated from a mistake made by the Daily Mail, who reported that she called Peter Gleick an "unalloyed hero".
In reality, Naomi Klein only sent a few tweets expressing moral support to Peter Gleick, who is obviously going through a hard time right now.
After several attempts by Naomi herself, the Daily Mail has corrected the mistake :
although, of course, the myth lives on in the blogosphere.
In light of these findings, would you like to re-phrase your opinion ?
I agree with you that Peter Gleick became a "truely tragic casualty of the climate war". And by his own hand I would say. He is not a journalist, and surely has completely underestimated the verociousness of the world where journalists operate (the boundary between the political world and (scientific) facts that should be at the basis of every journalists' report). However, I am very surprised that you accuse Peter of "fraud", and your opinion that you are "appalled" by the "ethical insensitivity" and "journalistic blindness" of another journalist, simply for sending a few tweets of moral support, seems uncharacteristic of a journalist of your statue.
Could you please elaborate, since frankly I am very confused about your point of view in this matter.
on Climate Audit : http://climateaudit.org/2012/02/25/gleick-and-americas-dumbest-criminal/
as Jeff Condon comments, when Steve McIntyre mocks you, you've really screwed up.
Steve is such a straight shooter?
I got tired of looking at his Blog when I realized he was claiming that 'peer review' was an autocratic process in which he got to tell everyone what to do. Then he'd document it all in public if they didn't.
That's the cause of this little ditty;
thanks for that link, I'll take a look at that
The climate change denialist John O'Sullivan (3-4-12), who claims he is a legal expert, has fabricated a statement and attributed it to Chicago FBI Special Agent Royden Rice. I know this is a fabricated quote because official FBI statements for the media don't make partisan attacks or speculate about charges. No FBI official would ever say anything so ludicrous. Not only that, Mr. Rice sent me what he states is his most recent statement on March 5, 2012. I posted it on my blog with his permission. That is why I know that Mr. O'Sullivan fabricated the quote he attributes to Mr. Rice in his March 4, 2012 article. Notice that Mr. Sullivan does not provide a link to Mr. Rice's apocryphal statement.
The lunatic John O'Sullivan (3-4-12) writes:
Other experts share my opinion that there is sufficient probable cause to follow through with a thorough in-depth federal investigation into the Gleick 'Fakegate' case to see how far the 'post-normal' climate cancer has spread. Certainly, Peter Gleick should be offered a plea bargain deal if he rats out the other racketeers.
Apologists for climate criminals will not be curbed until the leaders of this 'post normal' academic cult are jailed. But whether the Obama government has the stomach to follow through and permit such prosecutions remains to be seen, as Chicago FBI agent, Ross Rice hinted:
"Whether Gleick, a member of the U.S. intellectual elite and a former student and coauthor with John Holdren, Obama's Science Adviser, is ever charged is a different issue than whether his acts meet the elements of 18 USC 1343."
It appears that the Chicago FBI is getting a little taste of what climate scientists have to deal with every day.
Democracy is utterly dependent upon an electorate that is accurately informed. In promoting climate change denial (and often denying their responsibility for doing so) industry has done more than endanger the environment. It has undermined democracy.
There is a vast difference between putting forth a point of view, honestly held, and intentionally sowing the seeds of confusion. Free speech does not include the right to deceive. Deception is not a point of view. And the right to disagree does not include a right to intentionally subvert the public awareness.

GROVE — More than 60 Grand Lake residents gathered Saturday morning on a vacant lot where an illegal and underground abortion clinic once stood to remember the lives of more than 20,000 unborn children.
Group prays at site of former abortion clinic in Oklahoma
"The purpose of this service is to honor the lives of the unborn children that were aborted at this site for 23 years," said Steve Dyer, of Grove, pointing to the vacant lot.
Longtime Grove residents said the medical clinic was built in the 1940s. It was across the street from city hall, which also included a one-man police department. The building later was remodeled into a two-story brick building and eventually destroyed in the late 1990s or early 2000s. Since then, the lawn of the vacant lot has been replanted with trees.
Saturday's service was identified as neither an anti-abortion nor an abortion-rights rally, but rather a remembrance service, Dyer said. A public schoolteacher, Dyer was one of several pastors and parishioners from Grove's churches who participated in the citywide faith-based service.
From 1939 until his arrest in 1962, Dr. William Jennings Bryan Henrie tended to many of the medical needs of the community. He forgave many medical bills when a patient couldn't pay, according to longtime Grove residents and former employees of the doctor who have been interviewed through the years.
Henrie delivered about 1,250 children in his almost a quarter of a century career at Grove, published accounts state.
"He was a beloved family physician," Dyer told the crowd. "But he was also a forerunner for legalized abortion."
In an article that ran in The Oklahoman in 1963, Grove was pointed to as "the abortion mill of the nation."
"We are not here to judge Dr. Henrie or our ancestors," Dyer said. "We are here to honor the lives of the unborn children and two women who died from abortion complications."
The speakers offered prayers and spoke of repentance. Several speakers also spoke of blessings over today's children and for healing for the women who had abortions.
As with most small towns, everyone in Grove knew everyone's business, and that the abortions were taking place was common knowledge seven decades ago. Few people voiced displeasure about Henrie's illegal abortion practice, Dyer said.
Dyer referred to a crime bureau agent's report which was reported in a 1963 Daily Oklahoman story as, "Attitude (in Grove) (is) one of tolerance … business profiting."
It has been 50 years since the last abortion was performed at the site, Dyer said. Referring to the unborn children, Dyer said, "They are the ones who died here and hallowed this ground."

Even in the face of partisan bickering in the United States over the approval of an arms reduction treaty, Democrats and Republicans came together last week to address a long-standing claim of underpayment and resource mismanagement brought by the African-American and American-Indian communities here.
On Friday the U.S. Senate passed a Bill that sought to provide $4.55 billion in compensation to the two minority communities. Its passage marks the culmination of an effort by the Obama administration and the 111th Congress to finally settle a backlog of claims relating to allegations of racism and unfair practice in land purchased from African-American farmers and "historical injustice" meted out to the American-Indian community in the management of their funds.
Of the funds earmarked, $1.15 billion has been set aside by the Senate for claimants from the African-American farming community. The money will specifically address the needs of "late petitioners" or farmers who missed the filing deadline in a long-standing class-action suit that was settled back in 1999.
Commenting on the Bill's passage the Network of Black Farm Groups and Advocates said, "Two years after the provision in the 2008 Farm Bill that provided the opportunity for late petitioners in the Black farmer lawsuit to file their claims against the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the Senate has finally passed an appropriations bill that will fund the lawsuit. It was a vote of unanimous consent... [and] a momentous occasion."
An NBFGA official also said that at a time when people had decried the divisiveness that prevailed in Congress the Bill showcased an impressive collaboration between the Republicans, Democrats and the Obama Administration.
In addition to the African-American farmers' cause the Bill set aside $3.4 billion for the American-Indian community under another long-standing case, Cobell versus Salazar.
According to the Bill's mandate the funds would be disaggregated as $1.4 billion for settlement of accounting and mismanagement claims and another "$2 billion for addressing fractionation of individual Indian land" the National Congress of American-Indians said in a statement.
The tribes that would benefit from this settlement included the White Mountain Apache Tribe in Arizona, the Crow Tribe in Montana, the Aamodt in New Mexico, and Pueblo of Taos in New Mexico.
Speaking after the Bill passed in the Senate Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar said, "With the Senate's approval of the Cobell settlement and... four Indian water rights settlements, this is a day that will be etched in our memories and our history books."
Assistant Secretary for Indian Affairs Larry Echo Hawk added that the water settlements in particular were nothing short of historic for Indian nations as they would meet the needs of tribes as well as neighbouring communities through provisions for sharing shortages and investing in critical infrastructure needs.
The Bill is still awaiting ratification by the House of Representatives and a Presidential signature. President Barack Obama has already indicated his intention to sign the Bill into law and in an earlier press conference described the settlement as "fair" and "just" and said his administration would "continue to make it a priority."
