Death to Nidal Hasan and the better food in schools movement?

Death to Nidal Hasan and the better food in schools movement?
On November 5, 2009, US Army Major Nidal Hasan, a Muslim and psychiatrist at the Soldier Readiness Processing Center at Fort Hood, Texas, opened fire on his fellow soldiers inside the center, screaming “Allahu Akbar,” and killing 13 soldiers and an unborn child in her mother’s womb, and wounding 30 others.

While the victims were military personnel trained in the use of weapons, they were unarmed, forbidden from carrying on base the weapons many would use when deployed. Fortunately, Sgt. Kimberley Munley, a civilian police officer, arrived and wounded the jihadist doctor, interrupting his murderous rampage, but he shot Sgt. Munley three times, and just as the terrorist was about to finish her off, another civilian officer, Sgt. Mark Todd, shot him, and ended the killing spree.

This murderous attack left 13 dead, eight widows, one widower, 12 minor children without a father, 18 parents who lost children, 30 soldiers and one civilian police officer wounded.

There’s little positive from that event, other than that Nidal Hasan is now paralyzed from the waist down, and will likely never walk again.

Despite concerns about Hasan’s radical Islamist leanings, revealed when he was an intern at Walter Reed Medical Center, later as a physician in a PowerPoint presentation to other Army doctors, and Islamic abbreviations and phrases on his business card, the Army did not see fit to remove him from duty, or give him the punishment he so rightly deserved. In fact, an email from an Army investigator reveals the ugly politically correct nature of military service today: "Had we launched an investigation of Hasan we'd have been crucified."

Inexplicably, the charges the Department of Defense filed against Maj. Hasan ignored his Islam-based terrorist attack, but was instead labeled “workplace violence,” as if he had merely started a fight with a co-worker or thrown a chair at his boss. Such a designation deprives those soldiers killed and injured in this terrorist attack the benefits they are entitled to and would receive had accurate charges been filed.

During his opening statement at trial, in which he was convicted on all charges, Maj. Hasan apologized, not to the victims and their families, the nation or the Army, but to his fellow jihadists for not destroying more innocent life, and admitted shooting the 13 soldiers, and said he wanted the death penalty. Last week the jury sentenced him to death.

As one who believes in the death penalty for certain vicious crimes when guilt is not in question, in this case I hope that the death penalty for Nidal Hasan, a painless lethal injection, is set aside, as it has been for those in the military since 1961.

He deserves to live out his miserable life in abject misery, not in the glory of Islamic jihadist martyrdom for which he so badly hungers. Too bad that murderers, rapists, and others among the worst scum of humanity are treated so well when they are condemned to an American prison for their vicious crimes.

America’s First Ladies have always been advocates for important issues in our country. Rosalyn Carter championed mental health, Nancy Reagan fought against drug abuse, Barbara Bush worked to increase literacy, Hillary Clinton pushed for health reform, Laura Bush advocated for improvements in education, and Michelle Obama has worked to have a positive effect on childhood obesity.

Given the overweight nature of the US population generally, and that of the younger generation specifically, who can logically argue that a better menu in the nation’s public schools is a bad thing?

However, this particular effort has been met with resistance, and even outright rebellion, with school kids refusing to eat the better food being served in cafeterias, and school systems losing money on the deal as a result, and bailing out of the program.

One example of the growing national rebellion against the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010, which set new nutrition standards for school cafeterias and changed the way children are qualified for school meal programs, occurred recently at a contentious meeting of the Harlan County, Kentucky school board.

Board members were treated to a raft of complaints about school meals, which were called crappy and served in portions that critics say are too small. Someone said the meals tasted like “vomit,” and one parent said, “kids can’t learn when they’re hungry.”

Parents criticized the brown wheat bread, the skim or one-percent-fat milk, and the nonfat chocolate- and strawberry-flavored milk.

Where this effort has gone wrong is that it attempts to mandate through law the way kids eat, and even though the standards set by the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act are nutritionally superior to previous standards, school kids liked the old food and they don’t like the new food, and therefore don’t eat it.

In it’s own way this is a citizen rebellion against an over-reaching state: the people are against the government trying to tell them how to eat, among other things.

Our government has no business doing this. Perhaps this mild revolution will get the point across. But probably not.

James Bond is actually a guy named James Bond

James Bond is actually a guy named James Bond



Mild spoilers for Skyfall follow.
At the end of Skyfall, Bond takes the battle with super villain Silva to his own secret lair: the family mansion in the Scottish highlands (called Skyfall). There we briefly see the family cemetery, where we see the headstones of his parents, Andrew Bond and Monique Delacroix Bond. 
And so it is established, fully and once and for all, that James Bond is actually a guy named James Bond. It is not a name that is conferred by MI6, it is not a secret identity. It is simply a shittily-hidden actual identity. All of the previous James Bonds were definitely the same guy, and all future post-Craig Bonds will still be the same guy. 


It's worth noting that Bond's parents are canon from the books. In You Only Live Twice, there's an obituary for Bond written by M (echoed in Skyfall, by the way) and his parents are mentioned as being deceased. They were killed in a climbing accident, which I do not believe is mentioned in Skyfall. HIs aunt is mentioned in the film, though. 
And so you have it. With a quick shot of a headstone one of the biggest continuity questions about the Bond series is cleared up. There will never be a movie where Roger Moore or Timothy Dalton swoop in to tell the current 007 how things were done in their days. It's just one guy, and it's always been just one guy.

War On Terror LOST ... J. D. Longstreet

War On Terror LOST   ...   J. D. Longstreet
War On Terror LOST
A Commentary by J. D. Longstreet

*****************************

America has lost the War on Terror.

I can hear the exclamations now: "Whoa!  Wait a cussed minute, Longstreet!"  How EVER did you come up with that idea, huh?"

It's not exactly an Idea.  It's more like a fact.   In fact, it IS a FACT!

All America has accomplished, so far, anyway, is to "wall" ourselves in. Heck, we have barely scratched the enemy, the terrorists.  Each week, or so, we take out a few desert dwelling bomb-makers and terrorists out in the wilderness of the Middle East with Hellfire missiles from a circling drone, pat ourselves on the back, and then go right back to monitoring the phone calls, and email of American citizens.

The average American citizen has had far more freedom taken from him, denied him, refused him, since the so-called War on Terror was declared than any of the countries aiding and abetting the terrorists themselves.

In the dozen years since 9-11-01, America has become a police state, a surveillance state, a state in which citizens are as surely caged in as any criminal in any prison in the country.

All the "walls" America has built, electronic and otherwise, intended to keep the terrorist out have the equal and opposite reaction of keeping Americans in! Each of the new national security laws forces American citizens to give up more and more of our freedom and liberty in exchange for promised security.

It strikes me that national security laws are in many ways akin to gun control laws.  They limit the freedom of the citizen but do next to nothing to deter crime or terrorism.  Summed up, it is the American citizen being shafted - not the terrorist.

Look.  All governments seek power and then MORE power.  It is what they do.  It is the nature of the beast.  Anything that will assist them in accruing more power is sought after continuously and vigorously.

The citizens of any country are most at risk when their country is under threat of war.  Sadly, those citizens are equally at risk from the enemy AND from their own government.

The at risk citizen's government quickly learns that fear of a looming threat knocks down all sorts of walls erected to hold a government at bay and protect the freedom of citizens.  Oft times they will embellish and inflate the threat to create a sense of fear and a longing for security which they can then use and manipulate to expand the power of government.  That power will outlast the threat and eventually become a part of the so-called "New Normal."  We have seen it -- right here in the United States -- since 9-11-01.

Ted Koppel, in a piece he wrote for the Wall Street Journal in August, said the following:  "Terrorism, after all, is designed to produce overreaction. It is the means by which the weak induce the powerful to inflict damage upon themselves—and al Qaeda and groups like it are surely counting on that as the centerpiece of their strategy."  SOURCE:  http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424127887324653004578650462392053732.html

Our beloved constitution has been steamrolled in the name of national security.  Law abiding citizens are monitored by the government 24/7.  For the first time in our lives, and in the life of the country, we have a sense that Big Brother is hovering, just over our shoulder, watching and listening to everything we say and do.  As we now know, the feeling was/is correct.

Terrorists live to create mayhem, mischief, and discord within their enemy's camp.  They have been wildly successful in doing just that in the camp we call America.  They have met with success in their efforts while we are in a state of denial seeking more and more security provided by the federal government.  The federal government could not be happier!

The terrorists have clearly won.

Americans have surrendered our most precious freedoms in the name of fighting terrorism.  In the past decade we have called for -- and gotten -- some of the most anti-freedom and anti-liberty laws in the history of America.

I'm not alone in my assessment of America's defeat in the War on Terror.  Consider the following:  "And the terrorists have won. If a primary purpose of terrorism is to induce fear, and Americans are willing to give up their most precious freedoms in the name of fighting terrorism, how is this anything less than a monumental victory for our enemies?"  SOURCE:  http://dailycaller.com/2011/12/02/the-terrorists-have-won/#ixzz2dZKTrIqs

Freedom, once lost, is almost impossible to regain. I didn't say that.  One of our Founding Fathers (and later President) , John Adams, said that!  The freedom and liberties we are giving up today in the name of security are, for all intents and purposes, gone forever.

It has long been thought that the demise of America would be at her own hand.  By voluntarily giving up freedom, some dating  to the Magna Carta, Americans are making certain that a new America is aborning.  It is not an America your father, nor your grandfather would recognize.  Alas, it will not be included among the "free" nations of the world.

The Year 2092

Assuming that the Fed has permanently put a stop to all future recessions and recent trends can therefore remain in place, then 2092 is looking to be quite the year! That's when residential construction employment per capita will have made a full recovery!

I'm only bringing it up because, as seen in the following link, party hats are still in such short supply! Reserve yours early!

America resilient 5 years after worst GDP loss since ’30s

The signs of resilience are everywhere: Households continue to spend. Businesses are investing and hiring. Home sales are rebounding, and the automobile industry is surging. Banks have healthier balance sheets, and credit is easing. All this coincides with the economy shedding the excesses of the past, such as unmanageable levels of consumer and corporate debt.

Sales are "surging" as we shed the excesses of the past! And credit is easing so we can borrow even more! Hurray!

“We are in a much better place than we were five years ago,” said Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody’s Analytics Inc. in West Chester, Pa. “Consumers are feeling much, much better; certainly investors are.”

It is Mark Zandi's vast knowledge of the inner workings of our economy that I admire most. Take his decision to purchase Florida real estate near the peak. Genius! What a relief it must be to him, both as a consumer and as an investor, to directly participate in one of the healthiest and most robust dead cat bounces in all of recorded history! Is it any wonder he's filled with such optimism?

Carry on.

Stock Market Risk


Click to enlarge.

As seen in the chart, the unsustainable exponential growth party ended in the first quarter of 2000. In my opinion, those who think our problems all started during the Great Recession are therefore quite mistaken.

Welcome to the new normal! It involves all kinds of exponential trend failures!

Since 2000, we've revisited the median twice. Let's hope we don't revisit the realistic worst case (as seen in the 1950s and 1970s). I say realistic worst case in that historical perspective rear view mirror looking way. Should you be looking out the front window, your realistic worst case may vary!

For what it is worth, I've been permanently bearish since 2004. As a retiree, I no longer have any desire to swing for the fences. I just don't think this economy can support sustainable fence swinging any longer, not that it ever really could. As seen in the chart, the 1980s and 1990s were just an unsustainable exponential growth illusion of prosperity. Those expecting to go back to that era are far more optimistic than I could ever be (especially from these already elevated levels).

This is not investment advice.

The Constitutional Argument...

The Constitutional Argument...
by: Les Carpenter
Rational Nation USA
Liberty -vs- Tyranny


Confronted with a series of wrenching choices over Syria, Obama chose the course that best reflects fidelity to the Constitution as written. Hopefully, in the days ahead, taking that less traveled road by presidents will make all the difference. Walter Shapiro,Yahoo News

President Obama, looking beyond the partisan arguments, in the final analysis made the right decision based on the letter of the Constitution he is sworn to uphold.

Article One, Section Eight of the Constitution reads as follows: "The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defense and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;

To borrow Money on the credit of the United States;

To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several states, and with the Indian Tribes;

To establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization, and uniform Laws on the subject of Bankruptcies throughout the United States;

To coin Money, regulate the Value thereof, and of foreign Coin, and fix the Standard of Weights and Measures;

To provide for the Punishment of counterfeiting the Securities and current Coin of the United States;

To establish Post Offices and post Roads;

To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries;

To constitute Tribunals inferior to the supreme Court;

To define and punish Piracies and Felonies committed on the high Seas, and Offences against the Law of Nations;

To declare War, grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water;

To raise and support Armies, but no Appropriation of Money to that Use shall be for a longer Term than two Years;

To provide and maintain a Navy;

To make Rules for the Government and Regulation of the land and naval Forces;

To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions;

To provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining, the Militia, and for governing such Part of them as may be employed in the Service of the United States, reserving to the States respectively, the Appointment of the Officers, and the Authority of training the Militia according to the discipline prescribed by Congress;

To exercise exclusive Legislation in all Cases whatsoever, over such District (not exceeding ten Miles square) as may, by Cession of particular States, and the Acceptance of Congress, become the Seat of the Government of the United States, and to exercise like Authority over all Places purchased by the Consent of the Legislature of the State in which the Same shall be, for the Erection of Forts, Magazines, Arsenals, dock-Yards, and other needful Buildings; —And

To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof."

Credit to the President, after initially using the "Bully Pulpit" to make what I consider an erroneous case for military strikes against Syria he found the good sense to place the decision where it rightly belongs. With the Congress of the United Sates of America.

Center of attention? Those bright printed loafers that captivated me for a while and now I decided to "unleash" them. What a better way to make them "shine" then pairing them with 2 separates grey pieces that looks like one piece, a touch of neon and hints of gold jewelry ( I really love these creative pieces, gifted from my dear friend Alexandra).

Milwaukee Police And Multi-Task Force Taking Photos Of Alleged Motorcycle Gangs, While In Covert Operation

Milwaukee police and a multi-task force along with feds were out conducting covert operations and surveillance on major alleged motorcycle gangs that came to the city in celebration of the 110th Harley-Davidson Anniversary.

By H. Nelson Goodson
September 1, 2013

Milwaukee, WI - So far since Wednesday, Milwaukee Police haven't been fully using its Intelligence Center publicly to profile, discriminate and kick people (Harley bikers) out of the Summerfest grounds for no wrong doing during the Harley-Davidson 110th Anniversary,  according to inside sources.
On August 23-25, police used its intelligence Center to actively profile and discriminate people, former, present and future Hispanic local gang members at Mexican Fiesta 2013. Those victims were unlawfully targeted without providing any prove. They were kicked out from Fiesta and banned for ever without just cause and no refunds were ever given.
Milwaukee Police, the Milwaukee County Sheriff's Department and feds were gathering more intelligence about he Hells Angels, Milwaukee Outlaws and other affiliated 1%'s considered outlaws or gangs associated with major criminal enterprises during the 110th H-D Anniversary, according to feds. 
On Saturday, the feds working along with a multi-police task force were out snapping photos of bikers at both the Milwaukee Street block party and Brady Street block party. Seven officers, including agents were spotted taking photos undected by crowds, three of them had high tech cameras while the other four backed them up. When spotted they quickly fled back into festival on Brady.
