Common thread in all of these scandals? Abuse of power
That's the conclusion Insty comes too in his USA Today column:
The NSA spying scandal goes deep, and the Obama administration's only upside is that the furor over its poking into Americans' private business on a wholesale basis will distract people from the furor over the use of the IRS and other federal agencies to target political enemies — and even donors to Republican causes — and the furor over the Benghazi screwup and subsequent lies (scapegoated filmmaker Nakoula is still in jail), the furor over the "Fast And Furious" gunrunning scandal that left literally scores of Mexicans dead, the scandal over the DOJ's poking into phone records of journalists (and their parents), HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius' shakedown of companies she regulates for "donations" to pay for ObamaCare implementation that Congress has refused to fund, the Pigford scandal where the Treasury Department's "Judgment Fund" appears to have been raided for political purposes — well, it's getting to where you need a scorecard to keep up.
But, in fact, there's a common theme in all of these scandals: Abuse of power. And, what's more, that abuse-of-power theme is what makes the NSA snooping story bigger than it otherwise would be. It all comes down to trust.
Anyone who, in fact, trusts government these days is simply not paying attention or is a part of it. As Reynolds outlines above, each and every one of the scandals mentioned do, in some degree or another, involve an abuse of power. And an abuse of power is always an abuse of trust. This administration has been just about as abusive of both power and trust as any in our history.
What should bother you is they don't seem to care. To me that points to a culture that has come to accept the fact – at least in their world – that government is all powerful and can do no real wrong. It's "for the people", after all, that they commit these abuses. It is also in the name of "security" – that all-purpose reason to grind away at the freedoms we enjoy and put us under more and more government control.
One of those old dead white men who helped found this country saw the possibility of the latter long ago. In fact, he'd seen it in his lifetime and had done all in his power to escape it and to build a system that wouldn't tolerate the types of abuses of power we do today:
"The means of defense against foreign danger historically have become the instruments of tyranny at home." – James Madison
Bottom line, we're saddled with an arrogant and abusive, totally out of control goverment that badly needs reigning in. The problem – we need statesmen who can do that. And we all know where we are in that particular case. Without, that's where. We're stuck with self-serving politicians.
By the way, are we really any safer since the draconian security measures have been implemented?
Anonymous government sources quoted in news reports say yes, but we know that all that snooping didn't catch the Tsarnaev brothers before they bombed the Boston Marathon — even though they made extensive use of email and the Internet, and even though Russian security officials had warned us that they were a threat. The snooping didn't catch Major Nidal Hasan before he perpetrated the Fort Hood Massacre, though he should have been spotted easily enough. It didn't, apparently, warn us of the Benghazi attacks — though perhaps it explains how administration flacks were able to find and scapegoat a YouTube filmmaker so quickly . But in terms of keeping us safe, the snooping doesn't look so great.
And it remains "snooping" regardless whether it great or not.
Is this the the type of country in which we really want to live? Where we're afraid of our own shadow and our government to boot?
More gun control "cognitive dissonance"
From The Hill, this paragraph concerning the brothers who perpetrated the Boston bombings:
The news that the suspects were not authorized to own firearms will likely add fuel to calls for tougher gun laws – an issue that was put on the back-burner last week after the Senate blocked the central elements of a gun-control package backed by President Obama.
A) I told you so … I said a few days ago that the defeat of the latest gun control legislation was only a set back and hardly the end of the left's efforts to further restrict the right to own a firearm. B) I also told you I feared the aftermath of the bombings. And here we go. And finally C) WTF?
It is clear that Massachusetts' very strict gun control laws has no effect here. None. Absolutely zero. How many times and in how many ways must we say that scofflaws don't obey laws? How often does the "we ought to pass a law" crowd who think legislation and restriction is the answer to everything have to see that their way is a failure before they quit trying to take our freedoms away?
Gun control laws don't work. If they did, there'd be no criminals running around with "illegal" guns, would there? There'd be no source of those guns if those laws worked. But, in fact, criminals almost exclusively obtain "illegal" guns and/or completely ignore any gun control legislation. Look at Chicago for heaven sake. Some of the most restrictive gun control laws in America and criminals have all but made it a free-fire zone.
When will the left understand that the problem isn't guns, it's criminals? How often does it have to be pointed out to them that criminals, by definition, don't obey laws? How will more legislation suddenly stop (or even deter) two determined people, like the Boston bombers, from illegally obtaining guns? Harsher penalties? Obviously they were willing to take the risk. And that seems to be the case with all the other criminals who use guns in the commission of their crimes.
The only people that will be deterred and restricted by new gun control legislation are the law abiding. And watch out for this – at the end of this road (or slippery slope if you prefer) is the rationalization that the only way to "control gun violence" is to completely outlaw guns. It is the logical end of the left's push for more and more restrictive gun legislation. And, as they often do, they're willing to spend the time, exploit and politicize tragedies and achieve incremental success in taking guns away. It's no different than ObamaCare. That's not the end of anything. It is the first grab. The end state, if you are a student of the left's actions at all, is fully government run single-payer health care. ObamaCare is just the beginning. Once it fails, because government has, whether on purpose or inadvertently designed it to fail, government will blame "the market" and claim it is the solution.
It's an old pattern being repeated, in a slightly different way, in the gun control saga. One only has to harken to the era of prohibition (or not even that far back … how about drug laws?) to know that restrictive legislation doesn't work, has never worked and will never work.
Violence and criminal behavior are the problems. Passing all the laws in the world won't change that. As usual, government chooses to treat the symptoms and go after a tool rather than the actual problem.
If and when they finally find a way to ban all guns, run gun manufacturers out of the country and put more untold thousands of citizens in jail, they'll be shocked, shocked I tell you, when gun violence continues and violence in general rises.
See the UK and Australia for case studies.
Apologizing for authoritarianism
That's essentially what Sarah Conely does in a NY Times op-ed. Oh, she cloaks it benignly enough -"it's just soda" – as he supports the Bloomberg ban on large volume soda sales. But in essence what she claims is "government knows best" and "giving up a little liberty isn't so bad if it benefits the majority".
You see, liberty, in her world, is much less important that security or safety. And we, as knuckle dragging neanderthals, don't always know what is best for us or how to accomplish our goals without the hand of government to guide us (how we ever managed to make it to the 21st century without that guiding hand is still a mystery in Conely's circle). Sure some can do it, but most can't and so laws should be designed to protect and guide (coercively of course) those who can't (or are believed to be unable).
A lot of times we have a good idea of where we want to go, but a really terrible idea of how to get there. It's well established by now that we often don't think very clearly when it comes to choosing the best means to attain our ends. We make errors. This has been the object of an enormous amount of study over the past few decades, and what has been discovered is that we are all prone to identifiable and predictable miscalculations.
Research by psychologists and behavioral economists, including the Nobel Prize-winner Daniel Kahneman and his research partner Amos Tversky, identified a number of areas in which we fairly dependably fail. They call such a tendency a "cognitive bias," and there are many of them — a lot of ways in which our own minds trip us up.
For example, we suffer from an optimism bias, that is we tend to think that however likely a bad thing is to happen to most people in our situation, it's less likely to happen to us — not for any particular reason, but because we're irrationally optimistic. Because of our "present bias," when we need to take a small, easy step to bring about some future good, we fail to do it, not because we've decided it's a bad idea, but because we procrastinate.
We also suffer from a status quo bias, which makes us value what we've already got over the alternatives, just because we've already got it — which might, of course, make us react badly to new laws, even when they are really an improvement over what we've got. And there are more.
The crucial point is that in some situations it's just difficult for us to take in the relevant information and choose accordingly. It's not quite the simple ignorance [John Stuart] Mill was talking about, but it turns out that our minds are more complicated than Mill imagined. Like the guy about to step through the hole in the bridge, we need help.
So, now that we have these Nobel Prize winning psychologists and behavioral economists on the record saying we're basically inept shouldn't it be clear to you, as Conely concludes, that "we need help"?
That sort of "help" used to come from family, friends and community. We somehow managed, for around 200 years, to grow and succeed splendidly without government intruding and trying to control our lives.
The basic premise of her piece is much the same as Bloomberg's more direct assault:
The freedom to buy a really large soda, all in one cup, is something we stand to lose here. For most people, given their desire for health, that results in a net gain. For some people, yes, it's an absolute loss. It's just not much of a loss.
Or to quote a more succinct Bloomy: "I do think there are certain times we should infringe on your freedom."
Notice the arbitrariness of the "I do think". His choice, not yours. Bloomberg picked sodas. What else could he or those like him arbitrarily pick next time? Think government health care for example and your mind explodes with where they could go.
And notice Conely's dismissal of the loss of freedom as "not much" of a loss. Incrementalism at its finest. Pure rationalization of the use the coercive power of the state to do what they think is best for you, because, as her academic colleagues have stressed, "we need help." And our betters are always there to "help" us, aren't they?
Funny too how the solution is always the same, isn't it?
And their desire to intrude? Well its wrapped up in their concept of government's role in our lives:
In the old days we used to blame people for acting imprudently, and say that since their bad choices were their own fault, they deserved to suffer the consequences. Now we see that these errors aren't a function of bad character, but of our shared cognitive inheritance. The proper reaction is not blame, but an impulse to help one another.
That's what the government is supposed to do, help us get where we want to go.
No. It's not. That isn't at all the function of government as laid out in the Constitution. Not even close. It has always been our job to "get where we want to go". Government's job was to provide certain functions to ensure an equality of opportunity (like a fair legal system, stable monetary system, etc), but on the whole we were free to pursue our lives without its interference as long as we stayed within the legal framework and did no harm to others or attempted to defraud them.
Conely's last sentence is the mask that fronts and justifies/rationalizes every authoritarian regime that has ever existed. If you don't believe that, I invite you to look at the title of her last book. "Against Autonomy: Justifying Coercive Paternalism."
Kind of says it all, doesn't it?
Is Michael Bloomberg the most dangerous man in America?
At least in terms of your freedoms?
New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg said on Sunday: Sometimes government does know best. And in those cases, Americans should just cede their rights.
"I do think there are certain times we should infringe on your freedom," Mr. Bloomberg said, during an appearance on NBC.
Well, he may not be THE most dangerous, but he's right up there with them. He's just more blunt and obvious about it than most of the others.
I'm sorry folks, but this is an attitude that has pervaded our politics for quite some time and it is unacceptable. Totally unacceptable and should be stomped on like you would stomp a cockroach.
Government rarely "knows best" and has a dismal track record in that area. More importantly, this was a country founded on the principle of individual freedom (liberty) and heavy restraints on government power. As someone said, the Constitution doesn't grant rights – they're natural. What the Constitution is is a restraining order on government. Or was. It is government via people like Michael Bloomberg who've turned that upside down and feel comfortable enough to blurt what can only be considered authoritarian drivel (pick your brand) because he thinks he has the "right" to infringe on yours. His statement is anathema to all this country once believed in.
Yet, there are a good number of people today who will back his play and agree that he his job entails being big daddy and using the force of government to save you from yourself.
Yeah, not really.
GOP Senators prepare to cave on unnecessary gun control legislation
Let me preface this by saying there is absolutely no need for new gun control legislation. None. Nada. Zip. Zero.
The claims by the left that gun control legislation will solve problems of violence are nonsense. Period.
But that likely won't stop the usual suspects among GOP Senators from helping the left in their incremental but determined efforts to limit your 2nd Amendment rights. Apparently "Congress shall make no law" has a different meaning to some people:
Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) has emerged as a key player if Senate Democrats are to have any chance of passing legislation to expand background checks for private sales of firearms.
McCain and Sens. Susan Collins (R-Maine) and Dean Heller (R-Nev.) are at the top of a list of Republicans considered most likely to sign on to legislation expanding background checks after talks with Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) stalled earlier this month.
Sen. Mark Kirk (R-Ill.) has signaled he will likely support the yet-to-be-finalized proposal he negotiated with Sens. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) and Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) to expand background checks to cover private gun sales, according to Senate sources.
Of course we've been assured by some that this is really of no big consequence and we should relax and let it happen.
Uh, no.
Like I said in the beginning – there is absolutely no need for new gun control legislation – none. The fact that some in the GOP seem poised to make that happen anyway should tell you all you need to know about certain members of that party and their professed claim to believe in your Constitutional rights all while negotiating parts of them away.
Feinstein's assault weapons ban will not be in final Senate bill
Emily Miller, writing in the Washington Times, reports:
Gun control efforts on the nation level lost a major battle when Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid told a bereft Sen. Dianne Feinstein Monday that her so-called assault weapon ban bill was getting pulled from the gun package coming to the floor next month. Her legislation, which passed the SenateJudiciary Committee last week by a straight party line vote, is the only one of the four gun-related bills that passed out of committee that Mr. Reid axed.
Mrs. Feinstein insists she will not be ignored. The California Democrat plans to bring two amendments up during the gun votes — to ban firearms that have one cosmetic feature that makes them resembles military weapon and magazines that hold more than 10 rounds. Mr. Reid said Tuesday that "her amendment, using the most optimistic numbers, has less than 40 votes — that's not 60."
However, Mr. Reid's calculation was really less about vote counting and more about keeping the majority in the upper chamber.
"The Democrats know that Feinstein's 'assault weapon' ban is suicide at the polls for them come 2014," Alan Gottlieb, the founder of the Second Amendment Foundation told me Tuesday. "It is so extreme that even the Democratic leadership in the Senate doesn't want it as part of their package."
So 'whoohoo', huh? Yeah, sort of, but Miller entitles her piece "RIP national assault weapons ban". RIP? Hardly. If you think Democrats, or at least Feinstein, are going to quit on this, you're wrong. Just consider how long they pushed for government mandated health care. The fact that they couldn't muster 40 votes in the Senate is, to those who would take your guns, another temporary setback. Despite the fact that studies have shown no positive link a decline in gun violence and the last assault weapon's ban, they'll continue to try. Trust me on that. This isn't about safety, it's about controlt:
Mrs. Feinstein insists she will not be ignored. The California Democrat plans to bring two amendments up during the gun votes — to ban firearms that have one cosmetic feature that makes them resembles military weapon and magazines that hold more than 10 rounds.
Right now Democratic Senators are reading the electoral tea leaves and know that such a vote, at least for those in states where their seat isn't safe, is electoral poison. As soon as they see or feel that the electorate's opinion has shifted, they'll gladly vote for such a ban. The lack of votes isn't about principle, it's about keeping their jobs.
"The Democrats know that Feinstein's 'assault weapon' ban is suicide at the polls for them come 2014," Alan Gottlieb, the founder of the Second Amendment Foundation told me Tuesday. "It is so extreme that even the Democratic leadership in the Senate doesn't want it as part of their package."
Mr. Obama does, of course. And so they'll continue to try. And they'll use the incremental approach instead.
And there's something else to consider here – the politics of the Reid move. He's taken the step of removing the most controversial parts of the gun control attempt. But there's still more for the Senate to consider. And Reid is trying to use his removal of the "extreme" parts to demand a corresponding move (i.e. "compromise") from the GOP in support of what's left.
The background check bill is the most contentious of those three, and lawmakers are still working behind the scenes to find a compromise that can garner 60 votes in the chamber.
Sen. Joe Manchin III, a West Virginia Democrat who has been trying to work out a compromise, said Tuesday he was optimistic on that front.
"I'm still working very hard, and hopefully reasonable people will look at reasonable proposals and something will happen," he said.
And what would that compromise bring?
Currently, all sales by licensed firearms dealers must go through background checks, but transactions between private individuals do not. Lawmakers are looking for a way to extend checks to almost all transactions without also creating a record-keeping system that gun rights supporters fear could turn into a gun registry.
How could it not turn into a defacto"gun registry"?
And who wants to bet that some GOP Senators end up supporting it?
Are we looking at a Cyprus moment here?
I have to preface this by saying absolutely nothing would surprise me any more. Since this administration has come into office, what would have, or should have been, unthinkable previously has not only happened but has been cheered by a certain element of our population. ObamaCare is the most visible evidence of this. But there is plenty of other stuff too. Drone strikes on US citizens are "okay", i.e. "legal". Speaking of "legal" how about this:
The Obama administration is drawing up plans to give all U.S. spy agencies full access to a massive database that contains financial data on American citizens and others who bank in the country, according to a Treasury Department document seen by Reuters.
The proposed plan represents a major step by U.S. intelligence agencies to spot and track down terrorist networks and crime syndicates by bringing together financial databanks, criminal records and military intelligence. The plan, which legal experts say is permissible under U.S. law, is nonetheless likely to trigger intense criticism from privacy advocates.
More shredding of Constitutional guarantees. And what do we hear for the most part? A collective yawn.
We've all seen what has happened on Cyprus with the government imposing a "levy" on savers. A "levy". Outright theft is what it is. And even while they've lowered the amount of the "levy" they're still imposing it.
Couldn't happen here, could it? Don't bet on it. What other government is desperate for revenue? And where is it that 19 trillion dollars exist that is currently out of their reach?
Try 401(k)'s. Katie Pavlich has the story:
As a reminder, the United States government has been eying and researching how Americans use their 401k plans for quite some time now. Recently we saw the U.S. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau suggest the government help "manage" retirement plans.
The U.S. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is weighing whether it should take on a role in helping Americans manage the $19.4 trillion they have put into retirement savings, a move that would be the agency's first foray into consumer investments.
"That's one of the things we've been exploring and are interested in in terms of whether and what authority we have," bureau director Richard Cordray said in an interview. He didn't provide additional details.
The bureau's core concern is that many Americans, notably those from the retiring Baby Boom generation, may fall prey to financial scams, according to three people briefed on the CFPB's deliberations who asked not to be named because the matter is still under discussion.
The retirement savings business in the U.S. is dominated by a group of companies that handle record-keeping and management of investments in tax-advantaged vehicles like 401(k) plans and individual retirement accounts. The group includes Fidelity Investments, JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM), Charles Schwab Corp. (SCHW) and T. Rowe Price Group Inc. (TROW) Americans held $19.4 trillion in retirement assets as of Sept. 30, 2012, according to the Investment Company Institute, an industry association; about $3.5 trillion of that was in 401(k) plans.
So we have a new government agency (created in 2011) looking for a job to justify its continued existence and an administration and political elite looking for revenue while over 19 trillion dollars lays in front of them. The statement "the …. bureau is weighing whether it should take on the role of helping Americans manage [their] retirement savings" should send shivers down your spine. Why do they feel the need to consider such a thing?
Well, it's because you need their protection:
This agency, created by the 2010 Dodd-Frank-Act, is very concerned about how safe your retirement savings are. They are apparently concerned that retiring baby boomers may become victims of financial scams.
That's right, it's save the geezers instead of the children. You're simply too dumb to manage the account you've spent your entire working life amassing. You have to have government help to do it and that means what? Government access and, one would assume, at some point government permission to spend your dollars. How else does government save you from "scams" (you know, like Social Security)?
You sputter, "but they have no right…". Since when has government really been concerned with rights? If it can give spy agencies access to your financial records "legally" to combat terrorism, how big of a stretch is it to believe they'll grant another agency access to your financial records (401(k)) to combat "scams?"
And, with the camel of government's nose under the tent, how long before that access turns into some sort of "levy" for this service they provide that you never asked for?
Is the GOP about to be co-opted by the Democrats … again
It all starts with what could be described as a very simple act – the acceptance of a premise. As soon as one side accepts the premise of the other side, the other side has won. It simply becomes a matter of how bad the damage is.
In this case, the premise that seems to have been accepted by the "old ladies" of the GOP leadership is that some sort of federal "gun control" legislation is necessary because of "mass killings" and our "children". From Ammoland:
You might think that with Republicans in control of the US House of Representatives there would be no way ANY gun control legislation could reach the floor.
But sadly we are already beginning to see so-called "conservative champions" folding to pressure from the anti-gun media to sell-out gun owners.
Former Vice Presidential candidate, Congressman Paul Ryan, has stated that he would support legislation that bans private sales at gun shows.
In the House, Majority Leader Eric Cantor, along with the help of Rep. Scott Rigell (VA), Patrick Meehan (PA) and others, have stated openly that they will work together with anti-gun Democrats from Maryland and New York to tighten restrictions on private firearms sales and expand background checks.
Possibly even more upsetting has been Senator Tom Coburn's willingness to work alongside anti-gunner Chuck Schumer (NY) to propose "bi-partisan" anti-gun legislation in the Senate.
Make no mistake, so-called "expansion" of background checks is little more than a blatant attempt by anti-gunners to register all firearms and gun owners in America.
That is why Representatives Steve Stockman (TX-36) and Paul Broun (GA-10) have drafted a letter to Speaker Boehner and the Republican leadership urging them to require the support of the majority of Republican members in the House before bringing any anti-gun bills to the floor.
This so-called "Hastert Rule" would mean that 117 Republicans would have to support a particular bill before it had any chance of getting a floor vote, not just the support of the anti-gun elitist in leadership.
So the premise seems to have been accepted by the GOP leadership if this report is accurate. And, if it is accurate, then they're going to try to fashion some sort of gun control legislation to address a problem that the type of gun control legislation they'll propose won't effect. What it will do, however, is create a new law that will put legal gunowners in criminal jeopardy if they desire to sell their firearms and don't follow the new rules to a 't' (and, my guess is the new rules will likely be mostly unenforceable – they'd only be enforced retroactively if a gun involved in a private sale that wasn't "background checked" was used in a crime).
The criminals? Those who are likely to commit mass killings? Yeah, they'll comply.
Meanwhile, if you believe that Congress has no right to "infringe" on 2nd Amendment rights, prepare to be sold down the river by the GOP. They've already accepted the need and the premise, it's now just a matter of figuring out what the "compromise" will be. What should be clear, however, is that if anti-gun legislation does get passed, it will be your 2nd Amendment rights that will be compromised and the GOP will be complicit.
Just think about it
When you hear all this nonsense coming out of DC about "spending cuts", "savings", sequestration or just about anything to do with budget, deficit or debt, who's fault it is, etc. – even while they plan to kick it down the road, again – take it with a grain of … pie.
Benghazi – the most "transparent" administration ever
No attempt to actually be transparent and, apparently, feeling no need to pretend otherwise:
Sen. Richard Burr, a member of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, said that the CIA has "flatly refused" to give some Benghazi-related documents to the committee, which is conducting an investigation of the Sept. 11, 2012 terrorist attacks on the State Department and CIA personnel and facilities in Benghazi, Libya.
Sen. Burr made the assertion last week at the confirmation hearing for John Brennan, whom President Barack Obama has nominated to be director of the CIA. Brennan currently serves as the president's counterterrorism adviser.
"Mr. Brennan, as you know, the committee's conducting a thorough inquiry into the attacks in Benghazi, Libya," Sen. Burr said. "In the course of this investigation, the CIA has repeatedly delayed and in some cases flatly refused to provide documents to this committee."
None of the other members of the committee contradicted Burr's assertion.
Of course not. That's because it is a fact.
Not that the administration much cares. It has found that "flatly refusing" works. "What does it matter now?" is the new attitude.
And that's despite the usual promises:
At the time of the Benghazi terrorist attacks, Gen. David Petraeus was director of the CIA. When Petraeus appeared at his confirmation hearing in the Senate intelligence committee on June 23, 2011, Chairman Dianne Feinstein asked him a set of questions that the committee routinely asks those nominated to run the CIA. At John Brennan's confirmation hearing on Feb. 7, Feinstein asked Brennan exactly the same questions.
Feinstein asked Petreaus, "Do you agree to provide documents or any other materials requested by the committee in order for it to carry out its oversight and legislative responsibilities?"
"Yes, I do," said Petreaus.
"Will you ensure that the CIA and its officials provide such materials to the committee when requested?" asked Feinstein.
"I will," said Petreaus.
"Do you agree to inform and fully brief to the fullest extent possible all members of this committee of intelligence activities and covert actions rather than only the chairman and vice chairman?" asked Feinstein.
"Yes, I do," said Petraeus.
And later:
Last week, John Brennan was equally direct in answering these questions.
Feinstein asked Brennan, "Do you agree to provide documents or any other materials requested by the committee in order for it to carry out its oversight and legislative responsibilities?"
"Yes, all documents that come under my authority as director of CIA, I absolutely will," said Brennan.
"Will you ensure that the CIA and its officials provide such materials to the committee when requested?" asked Feinstein.
"Yes," said Brennan.
"Do you agree to inform and fully brief to the fullest extent possible all members of this committee of intelligence activities and covert actions rather than only the chairman and vice chairman?" asked Feinstein.
"Yes, I will endeavor to do that," said Brennan.
Later in the same hearing, however, when Burr asked Brennan about the documents Burr said the CIA was refusing to give to the committee, Brennan qualified his answer—leaving open the possibility that as CIA director there may be occasions when he would decline to provide documents to the committee.
And the circus continues. Love the line, he 'qualified his answer'. He shored up his lie is more like it.
Given the last election, though, we've got the very government we deserve. Inept, unqualified, mordant, bickering party members whose first allegiance isn't to their country, but instead to their party. Why anyone would trust them with running a dog kennel much less a national government is beyond me. But we have.
Behold the result.

Comfortable and long lasting...
By: Brad Smith
These Dickies shorts, 3993 SNB are true to size and comfortable. The length is good and the waist size is good too. I wear them to my construction job in the summer and they have lasted for many years already. I am looking forward to many more. The hammer loop gets constant use and still is attached solidly to the shorts, so they are definitely well made. If you are a working person who is looking to get a pair of carpenter shorts by a well respected workwear company, you should get these shorts. I recommend them.

Strong shorts...
By: buck576
I purchased these Dickies shorts for outdoor work in the summer season. The shorts are made strong and are very durable. I wash the shorts frequently and they are holding up very impressively. The shorts hold up to putting tool, ie pliers, screwdrivers, levels and all other tools needed to get the job done. The only problem I have found with the shorts is wearing them in the rain. The shorts seem to wick up all the water and take a very long time to dry. The become very heavy and cumbersome. I would definitely recommend this product to others.

Sangamo BioSciences Announces Notice Of Allowance For New Patent Application Covering Genome Modification Technology
RICHMOND, Calif., Aug. 14, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Sangamo BioSciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: SGMO) announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has issued a Notice of Allowance for the U.S. patent application (US 20110301073) entitled "Novel DNA-binding Proteins and Uses Thereof." The claims cover core architectural aspects of engineered Transcription Activator-Like Effectors, or TALEs, which enable these proteins to be useful in potential therapeutic applications of genome editing or gene regulation and for the efficient use of the technology in biomedical research and plant applications.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130102/SF35903LOGO)
"The novel architectures detailed in the issuing claims are intrinsic to the efficiency and general utility of the TALE platform and we expect them to be broadly adopted and become the industry standard," stated Philip Gregory D. Phil., Sangamo's vice president of research and chief scientific officer. "When used with Sangamo's proprietary engineered FokI nucleases, or DNA cutting domains, this technology can be harnessed to efficiently and precisely edit gene sequences. The ability to modify the genome of plants and animals has already transformed cell biology and holds promise for the development of new medicines and agricultural products."
Sangamo's research in this field, initially published in a paper entitled "A TALE Nuclease Architecture for Efficient Genome Editing" (Miller et al. Nature Biotechnology 2011 Feb; 29 (2):143-8), led to the filing of this patent application."Sangamo is a pioneer in the field of genome modification and is developing our proprietary zinc finger DNA-binding (ZFP) technology for therapeutic applications in HIV/AIDS and the treatment of monogenic diseases," said Edward Lanphier, Sangamo's president and CEO. "We are very pleased that the U.S. Patent Office has acknowledged these new claims which expand and reinforce our dominance of this field from both a scientific and intellectual property perspective." About SangamoSangamo BioSciences, Inc. is focused on research and development of novel DNA-binding proteins for therapeutic gene regulation and genome editing. The Company has ongoing Phase 2 and Phase 1/2 clinical trials to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a novel ZFP Therapeutic ® for the treatment of HIV/AIDS. Sangamo's other therapeutic programs are focused on monogenic diseases, including hemophilia, Huntington's disease and hemoglobinopathies such as beta-thalassemia and sickle cell anemia. Sangamo's core competencies enable the engineering of a class of DNA-binding proteins known as zinc finger DNA-binding proteins (ZFPs). Engineering of ZFPs that recognize a specific DNA sequence enables the creation of sequence-specific ZFP Nucleases (ZFNs) for gene modification and ZFP transcription factors (ZFP TFs) that can control gene expression and, consequently, cell function. Sangamo has entered into a strategic collaboration with Shire AG to develop therapeutics for hemophilia, Huntington's disease and other monogenic diseases and has established strategic partnerships with companies in non-therapeutic applications of its technology including Dow AgroSciences and Sigma-Aldrich Corporation. For more information about Sangamo, visit the company's website at www.sangamo.com. ZFP Therapeutic® is a registered trademark of Sangamo BioSciences, Inc. This press release may contain forward-looking statements based on Sangamo's current expectations. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, references to the research and development of novel ZFP TFs, ZFNs and TALEs and their applications in research and the treatment of disease. Actual results may differ materially from these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including uncertainties relating to the initiation and completion of our clinical trials, whether the clinical trials will validate and support the tolerability and efficacy of ZFNs, technological challenges, Sangamo's ability to develop commercially viable products, risks associated with the protection of our proprietary technology and technological developments by our competitors. For a more detailed discussion of these and other risks, please see Sangamo's SEC filings, including the risk factors described in its Annual Report on Form 10-K and its most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Sangamo BioSciences, Inc. assumes no obligation to update the forward-looking information contained in this press release. SOURCE Sangamo BioSciences, Inc.

NEW YORK - Thanksgiving is always one of the busiest travel times of the year. But not everybody is heading home to mom. Some folks go skiing, some head to Orlando or Vegas, others cram the streets of New York and Chicago to watch parades. And some far-flung families gather at a hotel instead of grandma's house.'We literally have generations of families that come for Thanksgiving. It's our busiest weekend of the year,' said Clark Albright, director of marketing at Camelback Inn in Scottsdale, Ariz. (www.camelbackinn.com), where guests get a whole bird carved at their table rather than going through a buffet. In Massachusetts, more than 70,000 people visit Plimoth Plantation each November to learn about life among Colonial settlers and the native Wampanoags - more commonly known as Pilgrims and Indians. Here you'll find costumed interpreters plucking the feathers off real turkeys and chatting about a harvest celebration that took place in 1621. Plimoth also hosts a variety of Thanksgiving celebrations, including a Victorian-style dinner where President Lincoln's 1863 proclamation declaring Thanksgiving to be a national holiday is read aloud. Check availability and make reservations at www.plimoth.org or 800-262-9356, ext. 8364. In New York, the balloons and floats of Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade attract thousands of spectators. If you'd rather avoid the crowded streets or the weather - which can range from balmy to freezing - you can watch the spectacle from inside the Time Warner Center at Columbus Circle. The building has four floors of glass windows, and some of its stores will be open Thanksgiving Day if you want a head start on Christmas shopping. Denver shows up in top 10 lists for both Orbitz and Travelocity for Thanksgiving travel bookings, and skiing is undoubtedly part of the reason. Slopes scheduled to open Nov. 22 or earlier include Aspen Mountain, Beaver Creek, Breckenridge, Copper Mountain, Crested Butte, Snowmass, Telluride and Vail. 'It's a great time to ski because the weather is still relatively mild compared with the dead of winter, so we get a lot of families that enjoy that,' said Nick Bohnenkamp, with Colorado Ski Country USA. 'Our largest resorts open up in November to cater to that crowd that wants to come out here for the four-day weekend.' The glitz and glam of Vegas may not remind you of hearth and home, but you'll have plenty of distractions to keep you from pining for mom's apple pie. Restaurants offering Thanksgiving meals include Top of the World at the Stratosphere, Spago at Caesars Palace, David Burke at the Venetian, the Eiffel Tower Restaurant at the Paris, and MIX at THEhotel at Mandalay Bay. Tony Bennett and Wayne Newton are both in town for shows, and the Bellagio Conservatory has a spectacular autumn-themed scene on display through Nov. 24, complete with a 35-foot-tall cider mill, babbling brook, a bed of pumpkins and 1,000 red and green apples. For more information, visit www.vegas.com. You can celebrate Thanksgiving with a horse and carriage ride at the landmark Biltmore Estate in Asheville, N.C., which will already be decorated for Christmas by then. For meals, you have a choice of venues - Bistro, Deerpark or Stable Cafe or, if you're staying at the Inn on Biltmore Estate, you can have your turkey at The Dining Room. Three-night packages at the Inn start at $1,760 for two; for details, visit www.biltmore.com. In California, the annual San Diego Thanksgiving Dixieland Jazz Festival, featuring two dozen Dixieland bands, takes place Nov. 21-25. And wine-lovers can spend Thanksgiving Day aboard the Napa Valley wine train, which offers lunch and dinner excursions; for details, call 800-427-4124. Finally, if you'd prefer to celebrate on the other side of the Atlantic, head to Italy. Francesca Bortolotto Possati, the owner of the Bauer Hotel in Venice (www.bauervenezia.com), holds a traditional Thanksgiving meal at the hotel each year for guests and friends.

From the forum FAQ:
What is the difference between a friend and a contact?
A friendship is a mutual, two-way relationship between two users. It is initiated by one user and accepted by the other.
A contact is a one-way friendship. This could be where the other person does not accept the friendship, a friendship request is pending, or you do not wish to be friends at this time but want to show them as a contact only.
Where is list of friends and contacts displayed?
Your friends and contacts are displayed on the 'Contacts and Friends' page in your User CP. Your friends are also displayed in your profile page.
How can I request a friend, accept a friend or break a friendship?
There are two ways to request a friendship with someone.
The easiest way is to view the profile page of the person you want to become friends with and click the 'Befriend' link.
The other way is to add the person to your contacts first. Then from your 'Contacts and Friends' page ask to be their friend by checking the box next to their name labelled 'Friend'. Next, save the page.
If you know the username of the person you want to be friends with you can send a friend request using the box provided and clicking 'Add Friend'.
To accept a friend, go to your 'Contacts and Friends' page. At the bottom of the page you will see a list of pending requests. Check the box for the requests you wish to accept then check the 'Accept' button and save the changes. If you do not wish to be friends then select 'Reject' instead.
Breaking a friendship can be done in three ways.
* From your 'Contacts and Friends' page, uncheck the box for friend for the particular person and save the changes. If you no longer wish them to be a contact either, uncheck both boxes for that person.
* In your 'Profile Page', click 'Friends' and then click 'Break Friendship' next to the user's name.
* In the other person's profile, click 'Friends' then find your username and click 'Break Friendship'.
http://www.wutang-corp.com/forum/faq.php?faq=vb3_user_profile#faq_vb3_friends_conta cts
************************************************** *******
Generally it depends how your profile privacy is set. You can set it so only your friends can see your blogs, albums, wall, etc. I forgot the other features you can do with a friend list I think you can send PMs faster but I haven't the time to look into the feature since the upgrade. I only know that at the bottom of the index the people with the "+" next to their names are the ones on your friends list. If anyone found more things in the friends function let me know.
It also depends how you select your "friends". Many people are more liberal for who they allow on their friends list since it can be kind of rude and non-friendly to refuse a friend request unless they REALLY don't like the person. I am however more conservative for whom I allow on my friends list. I'm concerned if I become too liberal and being an admin I will start to have people messaging me with that method for admin/mod business when there are already 2-3 ways to message. Therefore I am trying to avoid having 100+ friends in the long run.
Uncle Steezo
if you die can i have your juicebox?
i hear it taste like kiwistrawberry.
Prolifical ENG
Another thing you can do your friends list is Under the "Quick Links" tab you can choose a contact pop up. Then you can quickly PM several of the people on your friends list at once, and shows which are online.

AEO Launches New Brand To Highlight A Reinvigorated Mission Statement
LONDON, March 18, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
The Association of Event Organisers Ltd (AEO) has today launched its new branding as a clear signal of its reinvigorated mission to serving the events industry. The AEO has redefined themselves as a much more dynamic association with a vibrant new team and aims to communicate these changes through the re-brand.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130118/588955 )
Karim Halwagi, AEO Chief Executive, commented; "As the key events industry association, it is important that our members know who we are and the nature of our goals as an association. Ultimately, they understand the key role the association plays in supporting them and the events industry as a whole. Pushing this in the logo was imperative to us."Mr Halwagi also went on to say, "We want to send out a message that clearly defines who we are and where we stand - one that says we are an organisation that inspires confidence. We are the voice of the industry and we're proud of what we've achieved and what we do for the events industry." The new logo is a more modern design, but maintains a traditional feel, and illustrates the core message of the AEO: to be BOLD, CLEAR, COLLABORATIVE and FORWARD THINKING. Along with the logo comes a completely redesigned website. The new logo also shows a commitment to evolving as an organisation, as well as broadening its membership and activity scope to include, amongst others, Event Producers and Experiential Agencies. Alongside the rebrand, the AEO will launch new initiatives which include a new category of membership entitled 'AEO Enterprise Membership' to encourage small organisations to join and enjoy the benefits of the Associations, as well as profiting from access to a renewed AEO Mentorship Programme. Of great importance is the newly developed AEO-BPA Event Audit product. The new cost effective audit will provide AEO Members with BPA-audited attendance and exhibitor data for their shows, with the option to add demographic and other data for additional incremental costs.

It's surprisingly durable for its build quality and I'm surprised that I haven't snapped the copper inside yet with all the tugging I've done to it. The build quality isn't that amazing, but the ...

Small, light and compact - exactly as described. None so far, even thought I looked for them :) There is no branding on it and the build quality is not the greatest but it's more than adequate for its purpose. Also it's clever design (or maybe just coincidence) that you can only open one of the sides ... Read more

Control Summary Sub-Tasks Rendering to Output While Rendering Project Task Data in .NET Apps Same like MS Project
Printer-friendly versionPDF version
Aspose.Tasks for .NET API now provide the facility to print expanded/non-expanded summaries only. Summary tasks are common in Microsoft Project documents where a number of child tasks are grouped together under a parent task.
Lane Cove, NSW, Australia., June 5, 2014 - (PressReleasePoint) -
The latest version of Aspose.Tasks for .NET 6.7.0 has been released. As a result of Aspose continuous efforts to bring further improvements to the API, this release includes a number of bug fixes and enhancements that further improves the API.
Summary tasks are common in Microsoft Project documents where a number of child tasks are grouped together under a parent task. While printing such a document, Microsoft Project retains the existing state of the sub-tasks that is they are printed to output if the parent summary tasks are expanded in document as well. The Aspose.Tasks API allows retrieving this state using a task's IsExpanded property.
This release mimics Microsoft Project's behavior while rendering project task data using this property which determines whether summary sub-tasks are to be rendered to output or not. If set to true, the summary sub-tasks are rendered to the output, if false, they are not.
In addition, to render a project's root task, the project level property ShowProjectSummaryTask has been added to the Project class in this release. This release also includes a number of fixes to issues reported by our customers using the previous version. This includes issues related to wrong split task count reading, project calendar reading and work type resources. This further improves the overall functionality of the API.
Below is the complete list of new features and important bug fixes included in this release.
- Provide the facility to print expanded/non-expanded summaries only
- Task.Calendar returns ParentProject.Calendar when must be null is now fixed
- Non Work Type resources cause task duration to ZERO is now fixed
- Wrong SplitTask count is read is now fixed
Newly added documentation pages and articles
Some new tips and articles have now been added into Aspose.Tasks for .NET documentation that may guide user briefly how to use Aspose.Tasks for performing different tasks like the followings.
Overview: Aspose.Tasks for .NET
Aspose.Tasks is a non-graphical .NET Project management component that enables .NET applications to read, write and manage Project documents without utilizing Microsoft Project. With Aspose.Tasks user can read and change tasks, recurring tasks, resources, resource assignments, relations and calendars. Aspose.Tasks is a very mature product that offers stability and flexibility. As with all of the Aspose file management components, Aspose.Tasks works well with both WinForm and WebForm applications.

.- Cardinal Renato Martino is scheduled to meet Tuesday with the head of the Russian Orthodox Church. The prefect of the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace left for Russia Saturday.
The meeting with Patriarch Alexy II and Metropolitan Kyrill, who heads the Russian church's foreign relations department, is another attempt by the Vatican to improve relations with Russian Orthodox Christians, reports the Associated Press.
Pope Benedict XVI has pledged to make reconciliation with the Orthodox Church a "fundamental" commitment of papacy.
Pope John Paul II had tried to visit Russia, but the Russian Orthodox Church would not welcome him. The Orthodox Church has accused the Catholic Church of proselytizing after the collapse of the Soviet Union. The Vatican has always rejected these claims, saying it is only ministering to Russia's 600,000-member Catholic community.
Under Mikhail Gorbachev in 1990, the Soviet Union had established official ties with the Vatican, but they fell short of full diplomatic relations. Currently, Russia has a mission with an ambassador in Rome and the Vatican has a papal nuncio in Moscow.

Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back
Description: Once upon a time in a galaxy very, very close to New Jersey Jay and Silent Bob stumble upon something new called the internet and discover that Miramax is making a movie about their alter-egos, "Bluntman & Chronic." In order to hang onto what tiny crumbs of credibility they have left, the dazed duo set off for California to stop the evil movie studio from making the flick. On a raucous road trip from Red Bank, New Jersey to Miramax's California studios, Jay and Silent Bob meet up with girl gangs, hitchhikers and Hollywood stars; they fall in love and watch bullets fly; they kidnap an ape and aim to take down the studio big chiefs. But most of all, they do what they do best: wreak havoc.

The U.S. military will be letting the Navy Blue Angels and Air Force Thunderbirds back in the sky in 2014, and several Florida stops have already been announced.
"Community outreach is key to connecting Americans to the military," said Blue Angels Commanding Officer and Flight Leader Cmdr. Thomas Frosch. "Our performances provide a unique opportunity to inspire millions to connect with and support our service members, and we
The Blue Angels, which have announced their full 2014 calendar, will fly over the Sunshine State five times starting with the huge Sun 'n Fun air show in Lakeland on April 5-6.
"After a year of sequestration and no military participation at airshows, Sun 'n Fun is honored to host the first appearance of the Blue Angels in the southeast in 2014," said Sun 'n Fun President & CEO John Leenhouts. "It is exciting for us to offer our guests the stellar precision that represents the piloting skills of all naval aviators."
Next up will be the Vero Beach Airshow May 10-11, a one-day Pensacola Beach Air Show on July 12, the Sea & Sky Spectacular in Jacksonville Beach on Oct. 25-26 and homecoming finale in Pensacola on Nov. 7-8.
The Thunderbirds have not announced their 2014 schedule yet, which is usually released in December, but they traditionally have four or five stops in Florida. In 2013, they appeared in only the TICO Warbird AirShow in Titusville before the military shut down performances because of sequestration. They had been slated to fly in the Sun 'n Fun show in Lakeland and Lauderdale Air Show, both of which went on with alternative performances as well as the since canceled Cocoa Beach Air and Space Show.
Air shows in Florida traditionally take place in the cooler months of spring and fall. 2013 still has the inaugural Melbourne Air & Space Show set for Nov. 2 and featuring the Florida-based civilian Black Diamond Jet Team.
"We're proud to be hosting the only remaining jet team air show in Florida this year," said Bryan Lilley, Chairman of the National Air, Sea and Space Foundation. "Against all odds, we've been able to keep a beachside air show alive in Brevard County and with it, millions of dollars in economic impact."
The air shows are just one of several community-oriented features the military will be re-introducing in 2014, although at nearly half the capacity of previous years. This includes jet and parachute demonstration teams, band and ceremonial unit appearances, port visits, service weeks, and nonprofit and corporate leader outreach.
"Community and public outreach is a crucial Departmental activity that reinforces trust and confidence in the United States Military and in its most important asset -- people," said Defense Secretery Chuck Hagel. "It is our obligation to sustain that trust well into the future."

Carter Home Health/Hospice?
- 0Nov 8, '09 by missninaRNCan anyone tell me about Carter Home Health/Hopsice?
I'm currently working for a hospice that is headquartered approx 2 hours from my home and am seeking a position that is located in my area. The distance from the office (and the nearest backup nurse) is just not working well for me.
I'd really like to talk to someone who has worked or is currently working for Carter.

Paul Johnson III
Updated: March 4, 2014 11:09AM
GARY — An Ambridge man who died early Saturday was shot several times during an argument over loud music, police said.
Paul B. Johnson III, 35, of the 400 block of Marshall Street died about two hours after being shot outside his home shortly before 3 a.m. He was rushed to the Methodist Hospitals Northlake campus emergency room where he was pronounced dead at 4:46 a.m., a news release from the Lake County Coroner states.
He was one of two men who died Saturday morning in Gary. While Johnson is the city's second homicide victim this year, the other man's death has not been determined as suspicious.
Firefighters found a Cadillac Escalade ablaze about 4 a.m. in the 1200 block of New Jersey Street in Aetna. The Escalade was parked at the home of the man who owned the luxury SUV. But the man found inside the vehicle has not been identified because of the extensive burns to his body. Authorities say they believe the occupant was the homeowner, but will wait for DNA testing to confirm the man's name. Sgt. Dan Callahan is investigating and has consulted with ATF agents regarding the cause of the car fire.
Johnson had been released from prison in 2012 and faced a new felony theft charge filed recently, court records show.
Detective Alex Jones is interviewing witnesses. Police declined to comment on the status of any suspects in the shooting.
Anyone with information can call Jones at 881-7477 or email him at firstname.lastname@example.com

Olivia Nalos Opre
Sidney, NE
Because her greatest passion is to educate the public about the important
role hunters play as stewards of nature, Olivia's platform is to promote
hunters as stewards of renewable wildlife resources. But she's not
just a talker, she is a huntress, hunting big game in countries such as:
Zimbabwe, Tanzania, South Africa, New Zealand, Mexico, Canada, and throughout
the lower 48.
She recently established the Nebraska Panhandle Safari Club International
Chapter where she currently serves as chapter president. She is also a
measurer for Boone & Crockett, Pope & Young, Rowland Ward, and a Master
Measurer for SCI. It goes without saying that she is involved
with the hunting industry in many capacities.
This adventurous worldwide huntress found herself competing for
the Mrs. Nebraska title because it gave her an opportunity to speak out on behalf
of the international hunter, as well as allow her to empower women to strive
for excellence through hard work, determination, eloquence, and grace.
As Olivia said in her voice-over for the state evening gown competition,
"Nebraska gives me the feeling of freedom, and familiarity; it is the
essence of family values, honesty, and hard work ethic. This is what
our forefathers intended our country to be like, and I could only be so
honored to represent Nebraska." Needless to say, she is a passionate
woman who stands strong to her convictions.
