HOUSTON (KTRK) -- Saturday was a beautiful day at Memorial Park -- a day more beautiful than most, some might say, as new trees were planted to recreate the urban oasis.
Thousands of volunteers spent Arbor Day planting trees across Houston.
"I think it will be more green and it will look really good," one young volunteer told us.
It's all in an effort to replace the thousands of trees killed by the drought in 2011.
The drought of recent years took its toll on the plant life at Memorial and other area parks. Experts estimate that one in 10 trees in the Houston area will die or has already died.
"The trees are starting to fall, break, not grow anymore," said True Wickman, a third grader at The Kinkaid School.
That's why Kinkaid students adopted a portion of Memorial Park to plant trees and maintain them in the coming years.
Volunteers began planting at 8am Saturday. Kids from the lower school planted seedlings they hope to watch grow for years to come. Middle and upper school students will be back at the park Monday to plant more trees.
They'll plant a total of 1,200 and will come back several times a year to maintain them.
"It will be a 20-year effort," Claire Caudill with Memorial Park Conservancy said. "But we will have a better, more healthy, more vigourously-growing forest over time."
The efforts to renew the region also extend to the Apache Corporation. Over the years, the Houston-based company has donated thousands of trees nationwide through the Apache Foundation Tree Grant Program.
On Saturday, the city joined Apache in planting the corporation's 3-millionth donated tree, right at Memorial Park.
"It cleans the air, it's good for the environment. It's a good place to visit, picnic, work out," volunteer Leslie Richardson said. "We need trees."
"In looking at all of the sites we did throughout this week, there will be 20,000 trees planted in honor of Arbor Day for this year," said Oneika Shelby with the City of Houston.
The Bayou Land Conservancy also hosted an Arbor Day tree planting event. They received 200 trees as part of the Apache Foundation Tree Grant Program.
The volunteers we spoke to at Memorial Park are certainly happy to do the work, knowing the effort they put in on Arbor Day will last for generations.
The goal, as Kinkaid student Kate Robison put it, is simple but important: "To help the trees in the park look better."

Randy Moss, Manny Pacquiao, Nick Bell and Tuesday's Late Sports News
Randy Moss has been officially placed on waivers by the Minnesota Vikings Tuesday afternoon, according to multiple reports.
In the wake of an unprovoked tirade at a team meal last Friday and a lackluster performance against the Patriots Sunday followed by a bizarre postgame press conference, Minnesota coach Brad Childress decided to show Moss the door after just four weeks with the team.
Elsewhere in sports, Manny Pacquiao teamed with Will Ferrell to perform a stirring rendition of John Lennon's "Imagine" last night on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
And finally, Dan Mullen's Mississippi State team is mourning the loss of defensive end Nick Bell today.
Bell, who started the first two games of the season for the Bulldogs, was diagnosed with cancer in October and underwent emergency surgery Monday morning after his conditioned worsened.
Here's a closer look at those stories and what else is happening around the world of sports Tuesday evening.
Tuesday's game between the Magic and the Knicks has been postponed after debris fell from the ceiling during an asbestos removal last night.
Workers were removing asbestos from an attic area above the scoreboard, causing delays in putting down the Knicks' floor after the Rangers played a game in the arena Monday night.
Madison Square Garden officials consulted with the NBA before deciding to postpone tonight's game, calling the decision "an abundance of caution."
There is no immediate word on when the when the arena will re-open, and MSG plans to work closely with consultants to determine the building is safe for the public.
The Knicks are scheduled to host the Washington Wizards on Friday.
Meanwhile, the NBA has yet to announce a make-up date for tonight's scheduled contest between Orlando and New York.
Despite the scare, it seems unlikely fans won't be pouring through the doors again by the end of this week.

The Giants Parade Route will span six blocks and end at the foot of San Francisco City Hall, where the team will receive a key to the city.
The parade will begin at 11 A.M Wednesday at the intersection of Montgomery and Washington streets in the Financial District and continue towards the Civic Center.
Interestingly, the parade will follow the same route the team traveled when it was introduced in San Francisco in 1958 after relocating from New York City.
The team didn't arrive back at AT&T park until around 4 A.M, but that didn't stop the masses from getting the party started early.
The Giants were greeted by hundreds of fans early Tuesday morning after arriving home from Texas carrying the World Series trophy.
Don't expect the hysteria to die down anytime soon in the Bay Area.
Here's a closer look at the Giants' championship parade route provided by KTVU News.

Andy Irons has died after a battle with dengue fever, Hawaii News Now first reported Tuesday morning.
Irons, 32, had been battling the illness and was en route to his home in Hawaii when he passed away at a hotel near the Dallas-Fort Worth Airport.
Widely regarded as one of the best surfers in the world, Irons was planning to fly home but was not allowed on his flight after it was believed he was too sick to fly.
He checked into the Grand Hyatt Hotel and was later found dead in his room.
Irons is survived by wife Lyndie, who is expecting the couple's first child in the next month.
Officials aren't expected to release a cause of death until the end of the week at the earliest.
According to the Mayo Clinic, Dengue fever is a viral disease transmitted by mosquitoes leading to fever, rash and joint pain in the more mild cases.

Donovan McNabb was benched late in the Redskins' loss to the Lions Sunday when Mike Shanahan decided to bring in Rex Grossman to execute the two-minute offense.
Two days later, the controversial move is still being discussed throughout the NFL.
Tuesday, offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan talked to the media and tried to clarify his father's comments.
The younger Shanahan said his father's words "came off wrong" and said McNabb had been warned he might be removed from the game depending on the situation.
According to Shanahan, McNabb has missed extensive practice time in recent weeks while dealing with a nagging hamstring injury.
McNabb says he is healthy.
So which is it?
Based on the latest scuttlebutt out of Redskins' camp, it appears both sides are bending the truth a bit.
McNabb has been reluctant to admit injuries in the past, while both Shanahan's have bee rumored to be frustrated with his execution of the offense.
Something had to give, and that's exactly what happened on Sunday.
Meanwhile, Washington brought in a player with fantastic "cardiovascular endurance" Tuesday.
JaMarcus Russell worked out in front of several coaches and team officials, but has not been offered a contract as of yet.
All signs point to McNabb being under center when the 'Skins take the field against the Eagles in Week 10.

Logan Mankins has formally reported and brought his long holdout to an end, the New England Patriots announced Tuesday.
The two-time Pro Bowl guard was advised to report to the team by the NFLPA before the end of the season, but his return came as a bit of a surprise.
Initially, it was not believed Mankins would report to November 16, so he could earn an accrued season to become an unrestricted free agent in 2011.
With his best offensive lineman back in the fold, Bill Belichick was ecstatic when talking to reporters Tuesday.
Or at least, he was somewhat excited about the news.
During his weekly conference call, Belichick said he was happy to have Mankins on board.
He refused to speculate when the five-year veteran would be activated and return to the field, saying the Patriots' coaching staff is focused on preparing for the Week 9 match-up against the Browns.
Belichick also again refused to comment on the Randy Moss situation, saying he wouldn't talk about a player still under contract with another NFL team.
The Vikings didn't officially place Moss on Waivers until 4 P.M. Eastern Tuesday.
Don't expect the Patriots to put in a claim on Moss.
In the unlikely event he clears waivers, New England would be free to negotiate a contract with Moss without having to pick up the remaining $6.4 million on his current deal.
It should be a very interesting next 24 hours in the NFL.

Cliff Lee is ready to hit the free agent market after being on the losing end of the 2010 World Series.
The 32 year-old lefty joins Carl Crawford as the biggest name on the market this winter and is certain to attract major interest from the big market clubs.
That means the New York Yankees and the Boston Red Sox.
Lee took the loss in Game 1 after giving up six earned runs in 4 2-3 innings. Back on the bump in Game 5, he was cruising along until the seventh inning.
Instead of choosing to pitch around the resurgent Edgar Renteria with Aaron Rowand on deck, Lee went right at the 35 year-old shortstop.
After Renteria belted a three-run homer, it appeared Lee's stubborn mentality had got the better of him.
Now, he might have to learn to be a bit more flexible if contract negotiations don't go as planned.
For all of his accolades, Lee also comes with a couple of concerns.
The biggest red flag to potential suitors will be his workload in recent seasons.
Lee has pitched over 200 innings in each of the last three seasons and in five of the last six years overall.
Despite his age and innings pitched, don't be surprised if the Yankees lead the way in offering a lucrative long-term deal.
Of all of his potential destinations, staying in Texas seems very unlikely.

Jake Locker's hairline fracture in his ribs will keep him off the field when Washington faces new BCS No. 1 Oregon in Eugene.
It's safe to say Locker's season has been a huge disappointment, for both himself and his struggling Huskies.
According to head coach Steve Sarkisian, Locker initially sustained the injury against Oregon State before aggravating it sometime during last week's 41-0 loss to Andrew Luck and Stanford.
The injury is expected to heal, but at 3-5 there is no reason to risk further damage.
Redshirt freshman Keith Price will get thrown to the lions in Locker's place.
After Sam Bradford decided to return for another season only to suffer a shoulder injury, it was somewhat surprising to see Locker opt to come back for his senior campaign.
After eight games, it looks like he made the wrong decision.
Locker's fall has coincided with the rise of Stanford's Andrew Luck, who has shown mobility and leadership while exhibiting a very strong arm.
Burdened by mediocre pass-protection and average receivers during his career, Locker hasn't demonstrated the ability to throw out of the pocket.
His athletic ability and improvisational skills might not be enough to get him selected over Luck or Arkansas' Ryan Mallett in the 2011 draft.
Meanwhile, Washington's season is shaping up to be a colossal failure.
The Huskies have a week off after facing Oregon, and end the season with three seemingly winnable games.
Look for Locker to be back on the field when Washington hosts UCLA on November 18.

Zenyatta is the early favorite to capture the Breeder's Cup Classic at Churchill Downs Saturday as she looks to finish her career with a perfect 20-0 record.
Jerry Moss' mare will occupy the No. 8 post in just the at Churchill, racing against 11 much younger competitors in the pursuit of perfection.
Before you start throwing your money her way, there a plenty of reasons to believe Zenyatta might come up short against her male counterparts.
The biggest reason is her limited experience running on dirt.
In her 19 races, she has only run twice on dirt, including last year at the Breeder's Cup.
Although she won both races on dirt by a combined 8 1/2 length, it's possible she could falter Saturday under the direction of Mike Smith.
A victory would solidify her place as one of the greatest racehorses of all time.
Although she certainly isn't Brett Favre, Zenyatta has already flirted with retirement before it was announced she would be returning for one final season.
If she wins Saturday, there will be plenty of clamoring for her to run again in 2011.

Shawne Merriman has been placed on waivers by the San Diego Chargers, becoming the latest fallen NFL star to find himself looking for work.
Merriman joined Randy Moss on waivers Tuesday evening and is expect to attract interest from several NFL teams.
The Chargers placed the former All-Pro linebacker on the inactive list in October with a minor-injury designation as he continued to work his way back from a calf injury.
His release today came as no surprise.
It remains to be seen where he will land, but he could have a future in San Francisco or Baltimore.
Both the 49ers and Ravens employ a 3-4 defense that would be a good fit for Merriman's skills.
But exactly how many skills does he have left?
Since undergoing knee surgery in 2008, Merriman has made more of an impact off the field than on it.
He was arrested in 2009 after a strange dispute with television personality Tila Tequila ended with him accused of false imprisonment and battery.
Still, at just 26 years old, it's difficult to imagine he has absolutely no value at this point.
Merriman totaled 39 1/2 sacks in his first three seasons in the NFL, earning the nickname "Lights Out."
He has totaled just four sacks in the last three seasons, and had only five tackles for the Chargers this season.

Manny Pacquiao and Will Ferrell performed a fairly impressive rendition of "Imagine" on Jimmy Kimmel Live Monday night.
Although the performance drew plenty of applause from the studio audience, Freddie Roach was probably less than thrilled to see his fighter focusing his efforts on another pursuit besides boxing.
Roach has criticized Pacquiao's training habits repeatedly in recent weeks, saying his fighter needs to focus on his upcoming bout against Antonio Margarito.
Pacquiao will fight Margarito November 13 at Cowboys Stadium.
With his love of basketball, politics and other pursuits outside the ring providing a constant distraction, Pacquiao's apparent lack of focus could give his overmatched opponent at least a small chance of prevailing.
As for the signing performance, what started out as a serious attempt to perform a classic slowly turned into a comedic showcase.
Ferrell and Pacquiao are certainly an odd pair.
In another subplot to Manny's late-night appearance, Inez Sainz was photographed speaking with the fighter backstage.
Sainz recently joined Top Rank Promotions to help provided coverage of the Pacquiao-Margarito bout.

Nick Bell, a defensive end for Mississippi State, has died after undergoing emergency Monday morning stemming from his battle with cancer.
Bell, 20, was a 6-3 sophomore defensive end for the Bulldogs who started the first two games of the season.
He was diagnosed with skin cancer in October and was slated to begin undergoing chemotherapy Tuesday.
According to Mississippi State's website, Bell's teammates were informed of his death Tuesday afternoon.
Head coach Dan Mullen skipped a scheduled speaking engagement Monday night to spend time with Bell's family.
By all accounts, Bell was a model student athlete who was well-liked by his teammates.
The Bessemer, Alabama native 16 games for Mississippi State after redshirting his first season in Starkville.
He totaled 22 tackles and made four starts during his career.
In the wake of the tragedy, No. 20 Mississippi State has a bye this week before traveling to face Alabama on November 13.
Funeral arrangements have not been announced, but a memorial fund is expected to be established in Bell's name.

Randy Moss has been officially placed on waivers by the Minnesota Vikings Tuesday afternoon, according to multiple reports.
The Moss saga took yet another dimension Tuesday when a Yahoo! report revealed another reason behind the surprising divorce with the Vikings.
According to the report, Moss unleashed a tirade criticizing food being served at a Vikings team meal following Friday's practice.
ESPN spoke with the caterer of the meal, Gus Tinucci of Tinucci's Restaurant & Catering located in suburban Minneapolis, who confirmed the story.
Based on statements by Brad Childress, it was in fact this even that helped lay the groundwork for Moss' release.
Now the question becomes where exactly the veteran will land in the NFL.
Mike Florio of ProFootballTalk.com is reporting a number of teams are planning to make claims on Moss, including the New England Patriots.
Since the Patriots are last in the waiver priority by virtue of having the NFL's best record, a return to New England is very unlikely.
Instead, Moss is more likely to attract interest from Seattle, Miami and possibly even the St. Louis Rams.
Once a player is placed on waivers, he remains there for 24 hours before the NFL announces which teams have made claims.
Moss finished with just 13 catches and two touchdowns during his four-game stint in Minnesota.
He is slated to earn $6.4 million this season.

The Common Sense Show
Whatever happened to just playing football? When I used to watch an NFL game on television, I only wanted to watch the game. I never appreciated listening to their liberal political agenda often being spewed out by their talking heads such as Bob Costas.
The NFL and Its Globalist Agenda
The NFL now represents the antithesis of everything that comprises the backbone of traditional American values. I love the game of football. Football was one of the sports that I grew up playing and I later coached the sport as a former head coach in the high school ranks prior to moving to coach college basketball. I thoroughly enjoyed the competition at every level both as a player and a coach. However, the NFL has taken all the fun out of the game, because the league spouts the mantra of the globalist forces which seeks to enslave us.
The NFL Is An Extension of the TSA
The NFL pat downs.
Invasive NFL security. What's the difference?
The NFL has decided it is not enough for Americans to be abused by the TSA at the airport, the NFL has become the newest version of the TSA.

enemy of the state just following orders
"Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists."
I am walking through the airport at Phoenix and the public address system tells me that today's threat level, as declared by the Department of Homeland Security, was orange. I wasn't sure what that meant except that we were all supposed to be frightened enough to passively agree the TSA the right to commit sexual assault against the public. What I did not realize at that time, is that America had been the victim of a coup as a result of events on 9/11 which culminated in a full blown takeover of the government, by the banksters, with the commencement of the bailouts in 2008.
Immediately following the attacks on 9/11, we entered into a state of martial law, in the name of protecting the American people. The establishment of martial law has been incrementally implemented and barely noticeable to the majority of sheep who inhabit this country. However, if you were in a coma just prior to 9/11 and awakened yesterday, you would quickly realize that we have been taken over and the complete elimination of our civil liberties is nearly complete.
This is a series which examines the elements of martial law and, more importantly, where America sits with regard to the roll out of martial law. I cannot possibly cover this subject in one small article. Subsequently, I have divided the article up into to two distinct parts.

Cops Kill 8 Times More Americans Than Terrorists Do | Crime All-Stars
(Before It\'s News)
Many people have noticed that several of the local police officers, particularly the younger ones are more gruff, rude and even abusive as compared to the past.
Many veteran officers attribute the shift towards DHS' training of local police which focuses on teaching the police that the public is their enemy as opposed to the traditional view that teaches that the local population and the police are partners in keeping the community safe.
Whatever happened to the friendly neighborhood cop who walked a beat, was well-known and respected by the local residents and was seen as the protector of the neighborhood? Far too often, that cop has been replaced by thugs wearing camouflage, bank robber type black ski masks who are armed with automatic weapons and sometimes even break down the doors of people who are innocent.
A Long-Term Trend Towards the Militarization of the Local Police
Americans have long maintained that a man's home is his castle and that he has the right to stand his ground in defending his property from dangerous interlopers.
Unfortunately, the right to defend one's own home may be disappearing. America has become SWAT team happy. America has seen a disturbing trend towards militarization of its local civilian law enforcement, along with a dramatic and very disturbing rise in the use of paramilitary police units being used for routine police work. The most common use of SWAT teams today is to serve narcotics warrants, usually with forced, unannounced entry into the home. However, anyone can be SWAT-teamed, even those who default on their student loans have been SWAT-teamed.
Since 9/11, and the subsequent militarization of the police by the Department of Homeland Security, about 5,000 Americans have been killed by US police officers. The civilian death rate is nearly equal to the number of US soldiers killed in Iraq. In fact, you are 8 times more likely to be killed by a police officer than by a terrorist.

During a period of sequestration and federal employees being furloughed, the Department of Homeland Security is building a new headquarters.
It's being promoted as a way to unite the agency, with a price tag of $3.9 billion. In typical Washington fashion, the project is on hold due to politics.
Unfortunately, taxpayer money may have been wasted regardless of what is decided, since upfront construction costs have already been spent. Completion of the facility could impact the agency operationally, budgetarily, and culturally.

Reports are that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is engaged in a massive, covert military buildup.
An article in the Associated Press in February confirmed an open purchase order by DHS for 1.6 billion rounds of ammunition. According to an op-ed in Forbes, that's enough to sustain an Iraq-sized war for over twenty years. DHS has also acquired heavily armored tanks, which have been seen roaming the streets.
Evidently somebody in government is expecting some serious civil unrest. The question is, why?

"Amid the explosions, smoke, roaring vehicles and chattering gunfire of a terrorist attack Thursday afternoon at Port Everglades, one fact became chillingly clear:
These weren't foreign-born America-hating terrorists. These were native-born America-hating terrorists. And they were making things difficult for the good guys.

DHS Employee's Plan for Militant 'Cells' in Coming Race War AudioBreitbart | 8/26/13 | John SextonPosted on Monday, August 26, 2013 7:02:21 AM by LakesharkAyo
Kimathi might have been the next Nidal Hasan. People who worked with Kimathi were reportedly afraid of him. And like Hasan, who killed 13 people at Fort Hood in 2009,
Kimathi talked openly about his extremist beliefs even while working for the department whose mission is to identify violent extremists.
Kimathi, aka Irritated Genie, appeared on a podcast in July 2010 in which he discussed his plans for carrying out a race war with "Europeans." In the same podcast Kimathi talked about his "plantation job" working for the government and claimed he was always spreading his message of a coming race war, even when at work.snipKimathi, thankfully, has not acted on his violent plans.
But like Hasan he seems to have gone unnoticed at a string of government jobs even as he has spoken openly for years about his dream of a race war with whites. Kimathi was placed on paid leave Saturday. He should obviously be fired immediately.But at this point DHS also needs to explain how he was allowed to rant about a new civil war for so many years without anyone picking up on it.

A Department of Homeland Security employee who works on, among other things, the procurement of guns and ammunition for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, spends his nights and weekends preparing for a coming race war and advocating for anti-gay causes, according to a new report from the Southern Poverty Law Center.
Meet Ayo Kimathi, a.k.a. "the Irritated Genie," who told his bosses at the DHS that his anti-white, anti-gay site, "War is on the Horizon," was just an entertainment site that sells concert and lecture videos.

Coup d'état: Dr. Paul Craig Roberts | Alternative
(Before It's News)
Dr. Paul Craig Roberts
The American people have suffered a coup d'etat, but they are hesitant to acknowledge it. The regime ruling in Washington today lacks constitutional and legal legitimacy. Americans are ruled by usurpers who claim that the executive branch is above the law and that the US Constitution is a mere "scrap of paper."
An unconstitutional government is an illegitimate government. The oath of allegiance requires defense of the Constitution "against all enemies, foreign and domestic." As the Founding Fathers made clear, the main enemy of the Constitution is the government itself. Power does not like to be bound and tied down and constantly works to free itself from constraints.
FEMA Signs "Exchange" Deal With Russian Government
Following outrage and controversy last year over the Obama administration's unprecedented decision to invite Russian troops for terror drills on U.S. soil, the U.S. Federal Emergency Management Agency FEMA is now under fire for signing more agreements to "cooperate" with Vladimir Putin's Russian "Emergencies Ministry" EMERCOM in a wide array of fields.
Among the controversial deals outlined in an official Russian press release: exchanging of "experts" and "experience," "provision of security at mass events," and "cooperation in disaster response operations." Critics of the scheme reacted with a mixture of fury and deep concerns.After the news was picked up in the alternative media, it quickly went viral, stirring widespread fears that Russian forces could be deployed inside the United States under the bogus guise of "security."
Officials from both governments rushed to deny the speculation, trying to downplay the agreements as merely routine international collaboration. However, it remains unclear why the American people would need or want any sort of "assistance" from the Russian government, which, despite the supposed fall of communist tyranny, is still widely regarded as a lawless gangster regime.

Posted by EU Times on Jul 4th, 2013 // No Comment
Officials claim the drills are to make the public feel "safe" in light of claims that the alleged Boston Bombers had planned a July 4 terror attack in New York.
According to Nicole Nishida of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, Americans will celebrate their "independence" from tyranny by submitting to random bag searches.
Although the drill is "high visibility" in one sense – cops dressed in riot gear will be involved – many details of the exercise remain "top secret and that's the way it should be. Only they need to know what the game plan is," reports KTTV.
Leaked U.S. Army Plans For Re-Education Camps In America | Veterans Today
"Political activists would be pacified to sympathize with the government"–US Army Internment Manual
by Paul Joseph Watson
[Note: On this 4th of July, we need to remind ourselves that not everyone is our enemy and that, even if we may have differences with figures such as Alex Jones, who spends surprisingly little time addressing the role of Israel in 9/11 and the threat posed to the world by Zionism, he and his colleagues still make many contributions of enormous value, such as this one, which I am reprinting from 3 May 2012 to remind us what we are up against and why we need to keep our real enemies in focus and spend less time attacking our imperfect allies.]
by Paul Joseph Watson
A leaked U.S. Army document prepared for the Department of Defense contains shocking plans for "political activists" to be pacified by "PSYOP officers" into developing an "appreciation of U.S. policies" while detained in prison camps inside the United States.
The document, entitled FM 3-39.40 Internment and Resettlement Operations (PDF) was originally released on a restricted basis to the DoD in February 2010, but has now been leaked online.

The Department of Homeland Security may be in possession of nearly two billion rounds of ammunition, but despite claiming it's being stockpiled for the safety of Americans, they're not sharing.
The shortages of popular ammunition rounds has made it difficult for average citizens to acquire most calibers of ammunition through regular retail channels, but the empty shelves don't stop there.
Police departments across the country are scarmbling to find ammunition for training and enforcement, and they're being told that the delays for delivery are 6 – 8 months.
This prompted Proctor, Minnesota police chief Walt Wobig to send out a call for help:
The Chief says he was told he'd have to wait months, even a year to get more ammo.

Bill Gives DHS Sec. 'Virtually Unlimited Discretion to Waive Any Manner of Crimes,' ICE Council Warns Congress | CNS News
By Craig Bannister
Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.) entered a letter from law enforcement officials nationwide warning of the dangers of the immigration bill S.744 into the judiciary committee record today.
The letter To Congress from the National Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Council of the American Federation of Government Employees Affiliated with AFL-CIO warns of the discretionary power the bill gives to "political appointees" and takes away from law enforcers:
"Congress can and must take decisive steps to limit the discretion of political appointees and empower ICE and CBP to perform their respective missions and enforce the laws enacted by Congress. Rather than limiting the power of those political appointees within DHS, S. 744 provides them with nearly unlimited discretion, which will serve only to further cripple the law enforcement missions of these agencies."

Congressional inquiry into the Department of Homeland Security's huge ammunition acquisitions spurred agency officials to try to explain what is going on. At current inventory levels, DHS has four to five times as many bullets for its officers as the US Army has for our troops.
DHS training officer Humberto Medina pointed out that "the Army faces known enemies in numbers far smaller than we have to consider. I mean, Afghanistan's population is tiny compared to that of the United States. And the Army can supplement with aerial and artillery bombardment. We don't have that capacity at this time."
Medina also suggested that "Army troops are better trained and more accurate shooters than the majority of those we've recruited for Homeland Security. So it stands to reason that we'd need to fire more rounds to hit any given target, whether it be in a training exercise or, heaven forbid, suppressing an insurrection. In a nation with over 300 million potential enemies an inventory of billions of bullets doesn't seem unreasonable to me."

Even realizing that he was going to immediately be labeled as a Right wing conspiracy theorist by the Left, Congressman Jason Chaffetz posed a rather pesky question to the Department of Homeland Security this week which is sure to get a lot of tongues wagging. Why do they need to purchase huge stockpiles of ammunition? Far more, in fact, than the Army buys on a per capita basis.

Over the course of this week, we have observed the Obama administration desperately attempting to cover up its enabling of Islamic terror networks within the US. Of this, there is no doubt. There is no need for me to go into the minutiae vis-à-vis their rhetorical gymnastics concerning the history of the Tsarnaev brothers and their Boston mosque, or the activities of Abdul Rahman Ali Al-Harbi; these have been comprehensively documented via reliable sources as the evidence has come to light.

The hearing itself was unusual, as questions about the department's ammunition purchases until recently had bubbled largely under the radar — on blogs and in the occasional news article.
But as the Department of Homeland Security found itself publicly defending the purchases, lawmakers gradually showed more interest in the issue.

Jessica Grisham has been dismissed as an assistant volleyball coach at Wimberley High, the school she helped to three consecutive state championships as a player.
Athletics director Weldon Nelms, who's also Wimberley's head football coach, said Tuesday that Grisham was let go in the middle of her first season as an assistant to new head coach Julie Dahl.
Hired as an elementary school physical education teacher, Grisham, 25, is no longer employed by the Wimberley school district, Nelms said.
Grisham played at Wimberley for her father, Lee, who won six state championships before retiring after the 2010-11 school year.
Nelms said "there were some differences" between Jessica Grisham and Dahl, who had been an assistant coach under Lee Grisham. Nelms declined to specify the differences, but said "it was best for both parties" to part ways.
Last season, Jessica Grisham was the head varsity coach at St. Michael's after she led the school's junior varsity team from 2007-09. While at Wimberley, she was named an all-state setter three times. She also played at Texas State for two seasons.
Dahl, who played for Lee Grisham for four seasons, helped the Lady Texans win their first state championship in 1999. She was an assistant to Grisham for two years before becoming head coach this season.

RIVERSIDE, Calif. (KABC) -- Legendary blues singer Etta James has died of complications from leukemia. She was 73.
Friend and manager Lupe De Leon said the R&B legend died early Friday at Riverside Community Hospital with her husband and two sons by her side.
Born Jamesette Hawkins in Los Angeles, the powerhouse singer had a career that spanned more than 50 years. As a child, she began singing in church in South Los Angeles and signed her first record deal as a teenager.
But it's for her tender ballad "At Last" that she will best be remembered. The song defined her career.
Over the years, brides used it as their song down the aisle and car companies to hawk their wares. Perhaps most famously, President Barack Obama and the first lady danced to a version at his inauguration ball.
James won four Grammy Awards during her long-running career, and she is also a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. In 2003, she received her own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Friday, flowers and mementos from fans graced that star.
While she achieved great fame, there was also great heartache. The music pioneer spent years battling an addiction to drugs, including heroin, that she admitted took away some of her talent.
She overcame her addictions and resurrected her career with a series of successful jazz recordings.
In her last television appearance, James reprised her signature song in a live performance on "Dancing With The Stars."
In her autobiography, James wrote, 'I wanted to be rare, I wanted to be noticed, I wanted to be exotic as a Cotton Club chorus girl, and I wanted to be obvious as the most flamboyant hooker on the street. I just wanted to be."
Terry Stewart, the president of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, said her ever-changing sound has influenced rock and roll, rhythm and blues, pop, soul and jazz artists, marking her place as one of the most important female artists of our time.
Beyonce, who played James in the 2008 movie, "Cadillac Records," paid tribute to James with a post on her website:
"This is a huge loss. Etta James was one of the greatest vocalists of our time. I am so fortunate to have met such a queen. Her musical contributions will last a lifetime. Playing Etta James taught me so much about myself, and singing her music inspired me to be a stronger artist. When she effortlessly opened her mouth, you could hear her pain and triumph. Her deeply emotional way of delivering a song told her story with no filter. She was fearless, and had guts. She will be missed."
Before she died, James suffered from dementia, kidney problems and the leukemia that would claim her life.

Manufacturing company orders may indicate slowly strengthening economy
Posted by LDonia on 06/27/2012
A small rebound in May on the number of orders tat U.S. manufacturing companies received for durable goods may indicate a slowly strengthening economy.
According to an AP report today in The Washington Post,
The Commerce Department said Wednesday that orders for durable goods rose 1.1 percent in May after two months of declines. And so-called core capital goods, which signal business investment plans, increased 1.6 percent.
Durable goods, explains the AP, are items typically expected to last for at least three years (for example: appliances). Additionally, there is an increase in companies making big purchases, such as machinery or computers.

SANTA MARIA, Calif. - All it took was a matter of seconds. Seconds Stacia Parlanti and her unborn child will never get back. After she was struck and killed by a car while walking on Black and Mahoney Road Saturday night.
Police say the driver then took off, leaving Parlanti, five months pregnant, in the street and a family begging for justice.
"We're continuing to investigate the accident as much as we can, with what little leads that we do have. It does make it a double fatality because of the unborn child," said Sergeant Jesus Valle, Santa Maria Police Department.
Police say Parlanti was hit just after 9:30pm. The driver taking off northbound from the scene.
"She was staying at a residence nearby in Tanglewood at least for that evening, we do know that...she left that residence on foot shortly before the collision happened," explained Valle.
With little evidence left at the scene, police are turning to the public. Anyone who have seen something, heard something, they say may help them catch the suspect and bring closure for Parlanti's family.
Police say there were no witnesses at the time of the accident, which is making the investigation that much more difficult.
Anyone with any information about this incident is urged to contact the Santa Maria Police Department at 928-3781, ext. 115.

At the end of the commercial a female (bipedal human) companion comes in and there is suggestive talk is made. Frankly, I don't think implied semi-bestiality is a great seller of products but maybe that is me.

Re: I find this unsettling
When people see any of my female centaur stuff its like "oh hawt" but if its male it gets odd looks or no interest at all. I don't see anything particularly sexual about either, but its odd that young males seem to get horny when they see a Mermaid or female Centaur but any mythological male creature is 'eww'. Judging from some of the remarks male friends have made, if there was honestly such a thing as Centaurs they'd be out trying to ahem, mount any females they could find.

Re: I find this unsettling
But atleast with "female" half-animals they've got "fun parts" to play with in their human half. Males? Not so much. And, besides, I'm talking about the suggested intercourse here. It is "implied" in this commerical that the woman in it lays on her bed and gets a horse-cock rammed into her. That's just an unsettling thought.

Bread Street Brasserie
Online Bookings
Very good service. Food was ok, certainly very reasonably priced at £9.95 for 2 courses.
24/03/2012 00:00:00
My friend and I both thought the special 2/3 course menu for either £9.95/£12.95 was really excellent value and gave you good choice of meals.
29/03/2012 16:00:00
We went for pre-theatre menu. The staff were courteous, attentive and didn't rush us. The menu was varied and had enough choice, and the food was well presented and tasty. For under £35 we had three courses with drinks and coffee. I would definitely go back.
24/11/2012 16:00:00
We had a good meal here considering it was Hogmany and we booked quite late on. The staff were very attentive and the food was very good value for money.
30/12/2012 16:00:00
We had good value two-course option (just over £20 for the pair of us). Starter for me was a nice well-seasoned Barley soup followed by a main of Hake. My companion had pate followed by chicken. All food was very nice. Service was friendly and good although restaurant did become a little busy and there was slight delay in clearing plates. All in all a good dining experience of excellent value in nice surroundings.
18/01/2013 16:00:00
The food was really good quality - we ended up having three courses. Salmon started in particular was delicious! We were pleasantly surprised when we got the bill, as it was so cheap; we even thought they'd made a mistake! I would definitely recommend for an excellent value, per-theatre meal. Only downside is lack of atmosphere because it's part of a hotel but the food will help you forget that.
25/01/2013 16:00:00
We enjoyed the meal and the staff were very attentive. Would certainly go back there. As we were the only couple in at that time staff were able to deal with any request.
06/02/2013 16:00:00
very pleasant surroundings good service and great value for the price .
11/02/2013 16:00:00
We booked the £20.13 offer, which was two courses each (there were two of us) plus a glass of wine each. The waiting staff were very attentive, and the choice was good. Food came quickly, was well presented and tasty.
21/02/2013 16:00:00
The food was excellent, and service was excellent. Service was a little slow though, but the food was worth it when it came. I think there was a staff shortage.
28/02/2013 16:00:00
The service was very diverese in terms of quality. The blonde haired waiter who greeted us and took our coats upon entry was very attentive and chatty throughout however the female waitress was the exact opposite. She didn't even pretend that she didn't want to be working that evening, tried to take our order as quickly as possible and because of this got our order wrong. Despite my girlfriend asking two times for no whole anchovies in her caesar salad it still came with them in and because she was put off by her food. However apart from the that the food was excellent quality and good value for money at 50% off through toptable.com.
02/03/2013 16:00:00
Staff were friendly and attentive, fulfilling all requested. Not wanting to spoil the main, we shared the mussels; just enough to get the tastebuds working. All three at the table had the fillet steak which was lovely and tender. The peppercorn sauce was very pungent and overpowering though, and we were all glad that we had asked for it on the side. The Chilean wine was a perfect accompaniment to the robust meat and sauce. Having left a bit of room for pudding, all tastes were satisfied, with one chocolate melange, one almond tart and the cheese selection. All very good choices.The 50% off deal made this a very affordable night at about £85 for all. Would not recommend this venue for a romantic evening however... no real ambiance. Pity!
15/03/2013 17:00:00
Good fast service. great value on pre/theater menue.
21/03/2013 17:00:00
food was excellent...went with another couple and we all had 3 courses ....steak being the order of the day....it was cooked to perfection....can't faul anything as service and quality of food was fantastic.....took advantage of the 50% off which was and added bonus....would recommend...
22/03/2013 17:00:00
Have only been here for pre-theatre but it was so good we went back a week later - the food was lovely, great choice, great combibation of flavours, good-sized portions and none of the boring stuff you usually get on cheap pre-theatre menus. At under £10 for 2 courses (including home-made bread) it would be hard to find anything better in central Edinburgh.
03/05/2013 17:00:00
We met for a girlie evening. The food, choice and service were all good. There was a good selection of old favourite dishes as well as a choice of more adventurous cuisine. It is a good all round restaurant, not too expensive and centrally situated.
11/07/2013 17:00:00
Met my friend here for dinner. Menu quite small, we both went for the comfort food option. Desserts excellent! Service punctual and friendly despite it being pretty busy. Lovely location in the point hotel. Would definitely return.
26/07/2013 17:00:00
We were in Edinburgh for 1 night to see a show and booked here for a meal after.Very friendly staff but slightly stretched as restaurant quite full, so service was slightly slower but food was excellent when it came and well worth waiting a little extra for! The fillet steak was divine and cooked perfectly to order - the vegetables were original and tasted lovely especially the butternut squash and spring onions and the deserts were yummy too.Overall great meal - better than many that I've had in London.
06/08/2013 17:00:00
My husband and I ate here before going to the cinema and we were not disappointed. The set menu has three starters and three main courses ,one meat one fish and one veggie, on offer. I had a delicious pork loin with creamed cabbage and my husband had sea bass and puy lentils which he enjoyed although I think the lentils could have done with a wee bit more cooking. He then had cheese and I had crème brûlée. The bill, including a bottle of wine and coffee came to £50 which I think is good value in the evening.
28/08/2013 17:00:00
this was the fourth time i have been to the bread street brasserie and i am always amazed at the incredible quality of food, especially considering how reasonably priced it is. also, the service is always friendly and efficient, the only downside being the restaurant is very quiet when i have been there which is a incredible shame considering the work put into the standard of food.
24/09/2013 17:00:00
my 3rd vegan evening at the point hotel. All I can say is that it gets better every time! The menu was a great range of fresh and high quality gourmet food. This place each surpasses all of the vegetarian/vegan restaurants in Edinburgh or glasgow for that matter (including Banns and for a fraction of the cost) The staff at the point hotel are so efficient. Its like go in get your drinks, take your order, get your food and get your bill when your ready. this means none of this waiting half an hour when your ready to leave. The star of the night was the vegan tiramisu. This is the best tiramisu I have ever tasted and this feeling was shared among the non-vegan I was with. (please keep on the menu)
16/10/2013 17:00:00
The restaurant was difficult to find and not well sign posted. No-one at the service desk when we each arrived separately. Once shown to our table, things very much started to look up. Great pre-theatre menu with unusual choices and good choice of wines by the glass or bottle. Our sea bream fillet and sauce was very tasty and well presented. The leek mash was good too. We were glad to have ordered a side dish of parsnips. Brownie dessert was to die for. Good coffee and very efficient and friendly service. The restaurant is quite big but nicely sub divided so it is not intimidating.
12/11/2013 16:00:00
Outstanding food, value and service. I have been to Bread Street Brasserie many times and have always enjoyed the food and service. An excellent venue for pre theatre and concert. Also much warmer and more comfortable since the refurbishment. Excellent as always!
14/11/2013 16:00:00
The Restaurant was not very busy and so the ambience was perhps a little subdued. However the surroundings are good, the service was excellent and the food tasted lovely Would definately go there again !!!
