WATCH: Speech code overrules U.S. Constitution, Arkansas Tech tells libertarian students - The College Fix:

Just a ‘time, place and manner’ restriction?
A campus police officer at Arkansas Tech University told a student group that the public university’s free speech zone overrules the U.S. Constitution.
The officer intervened in a “free speech ball” event hosted by the university’s Young Americans for Liberty chapter as part of YAL’s national Fight for Free Speech campaign.
Like other ball-involved stunts by libertarian students, the YAL chapter encouraged ATU students to write whatever they want on the ball, even if it might offend someone, in order to raise awareness of restrictive speech codes on campus.
A civil-liberties group that has previously intervened in a ball stunt told The College Fix that it’s looking into the dispute..."

James Comey Says Clinton Would Be Disciplined At FBI | The Daily Caller
"FBI director James Comey on Wednesday said that an FBI agent who operated a private email system similar to Hillary Clinton’s would be “in big trouble” at the bureau."

I have many friends (and probably relatives) who sincerely want to help the planet.
They are not bad people.
Nor are they part of some devious conspiracy aiming to de-populate the planet.
They simply do not realize that they are being conned about the dangers of carbon dioxide (CO2).

This video by Greenpeace co-founder Patrick Moore, PhD., mightbegin to persuade them.
At about 6:10 into the video, Moore displays a geological timescale of the last 540 million years. CO2 levels are shown in purple, while the blue line tracks global temperature.
Moore shows unequivocally that CO2 and temperature have NOT moved in unison.
In fact, during the Jurassic, the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere plummeted while temperatures rose. The same thing disparity occurred in the Eocene.

“It is (therefore) not possible to demonstrate a cause and effect relationship between CO2 and temperature over the long-term history,” Dr. Moore concludes.
“Carbon is not the enemy. It is actually the reason that we are alive.”
I posted a graph very similar to Dr Moore’s timescale here: https://iceagenow.info/colder-right-now-throughout-almost-history/
Friday on my mind
Friday on my mind | Power Line:
"Late this past Friday afternoon the FBI conducted its second document dump in the Clinton email case. To those paying attention it has become clear that the case has compromised the FBI and destroyed the reputation of FBI Director of James Comey.
These Friday afternoon document dumps come straight from the scandal management playbook perfected under the (Bill) Clinton administration.
They remind us, in case any reminder was necessary, of how much we have to look forward to in the event the Clintons return to the White House.
I nevertheless find it shocking that the FBI itself has now adopted the routine, acting as a party with much to be ashamed of.
I collected early pieces and a few related revelations presenting a first take on the 190 pages of interview notes in “Scandal management with the FBI.”

Andrew McCarthy’s NRO column similarly argues “Obama’s conflict tanked the Clinton email investigation.”
Among the revelations reported over the weekend in the first pass at the documents was President Obama’s use of a pseudonym in email correspondence with Clinton on on the private email account maintained on her insecure server.

“… The newly released interview summaries from the FBI investigation show government employees undercutting other aspects of the public accounts given by Clinton and senior State officials.“A State Department employee, whose name was redacted, told investigators they believed senior department officials interfered with the screening of Clinton’s emails for public release …“The employee, who worked on the screening process, said there was pressure to obscure the fact they were finding classified information in the messages. … Clinton repeatedly said last year she never sent or received classified information …“The State Department has said that Clinton did not include any of her emails with Petraeus when her lawyers screened and returned what they said were all her work emails in 2014. A single conversation of about 10 emails later emerged last year after the Defense Department provided it.“The employee also said the Defense Department told the State Department last year it had found about 1,000 emails between Clinton and David Petraeus in its records from his time as the director of the United States Central Command.” …"
Frank Gaffney on Obama's Attempt to Slip Irreversible Internet Surrender Under the Radar: 'We've Got Three Days to Fix This'
Frank Gaffney on Obama's Attempt to Slip Irreversible Internet Surrender Under the Radar: 'We've Got Three Days to Fix This':
"...a vitally important topic that was not addressed, the impending surrender of U.S. control of Internet registration.
"...a vitally important topic that was not addressed, the impending surrender of U.S. control of Internet registration.
Gaffney recalled a discussion with Congressman Mike Pompeo of Kansas, in which Pompeo told him:
...The conversation turned to the impending handover of Internet control to a foreign body, a topic that should be of major concern to American voters, although Marlow sarcastically observed there was no time for it during the debate because moderator Lester Holt thought it was more important to discuss Donald Trump’s thoughts on Barack Obama’s birth certificate.
“A lot of people in this audience have absolutely no clue why we would do this and can’t even interpret what Obama and the globalists are thinking,” Marlow said.
“Well, quite frankly, I’m among them. I can’t figure out what the argument is for doing this,” Gaffney replied. He went on to explain the situation:
What they’re preparing to do is to cede, or surrender, the last vestige of American control, or even influence, over what is done with critical functions of the Internet. It gets pretty arcane, but the point is, if you think that the freedom of the Internet – whether it’s the ability of people to communicate freely information on it, or whether you think of it as an engine for free enterprise, let alone if you understand the contribution that it makes these days to national security – including, by the way, the operations of our critical infrastructure – you will understand that the United States retaining a measure of quality control as to what’s going on with how the Internet is populated with names and numbers, domains, websites and the like, is a veryimportant thing.And for absolutely no good reason, other than people – or countries, I should say, like Russia, and China, and Saudi Arabia, and Iran, and North Korea – don’t want us to have any say in this and would like to be able to change things around so that they cannot only restrict all the things the Internet does to help their own people become familiar with the terrible they’re being subjected to, at the hands of their totalitarian or authoritarian regimes, but they want to take those freedoms – freedom of speech, freedom of expression, freedom of enterprise – away from us, as well.
So this is what it comes down to, Alex: there’s no good reason for doing this, certainly not in the next three days, which is what’s going to happen unless Congress intervenes.And there’s an interesting point here: Hillary Clinton could make all the difference on whether that happens or not.
...Gaffney pleaded:
If every one of your impressive audience – and I do think of you as a hotshot, I don’t care what they say – this audience is important, and if they will come up on the net,today, with calls into Mitch McConnell urging him not to give up the Internet – don’t let this happen, make sure the Continuing Resolution doesn’t permit that..."

Obama Administration Orders Pentagon To Quit Talking About 'Competition' With China:
"The Obama administration has ordered the Pentagon to quit referring to the country’s response to Chinese expansion in the Asia-Pacific as a “competition,” as the word is too inflammatory, sources familiar with the directive told the Navy Times.
Over the past decade, China has aggressively expanded its military presence in the South China Sea, including creating number of fortified, man-made islands within the region."

What is government? Australia goes dark
What is government? Australia goes dark:
Entire state of South Australia has power black out because of flawed climate change energy policy
The story in a nutshell:
Which brings us to a central question of our times: what is government? Is this government in action? Is Australia suffering from "big" government?
Many years ago this simply would not have happened. People understood that the real governing of society, of a country, is going on within society itself. Government, legitimate government of a free country, is an organic thing taking place in society by the aggregate decisions of a free population.
Government IS the people, but not in the condescending way statists imply. To understand this is to understand the Copernican revolution in political thinking that fueled the founding generation and set them free from the statism of the past, creating a free country based on a completely different idea of what government is.
Today most people confuse statism with government and expect to be ruled.
National energy policies and national economic policies are the result of forgetting what a free society is. Statism is the denial of you to your governance.
The result is the slow destruction of our countries and our lives.

LIBERTY REVIEW
LIBERTY REVIEW:
http://libertyreview76.blogspot.com/2016/09/nightmarish-expectations-by-tammy.html
The executive used the world stage to promote his propaganda. It didn’t take long, paragraph number two to
be exact, for head scratching, head shaking and a look of disbelief to carry me
through thirteen pages of rhetoric. As
expected, he pointed his finger and criticized others as he carries out or
seeks to engage in the same tactics. The
visual equivalent of this speech would be a cow pasture. What’s worse is that
so many Americans have fallen for the deception; blindly traveling the road of
deceit.
That’s the magical hocus-pocus of the Left.....

Nightmarish Expectations
By Tammy Derouin
With his final speech to the United Nations, our resident
Destroyer in Chief did not miss yet another opportunity to shame the United
States and embarrass the citizens. I
feel he has truly enjoyed undermining our country for these past eight
turbulent years.
His speech began with fairy tales and ended with nightmarish
expectations. When did we return the global economy to economic growth? Did we take away terrorist safe havens? Seems to me that there’s an awfully lot of
open borders throughout the world. Maybe
he meant transference of terrorist safe havens.
Apparently, we resolved the Iranian nuclear matter by way of diplomacy. Is that what they’re calling it? To me it looked like we rolled over and got
bulldozed.

Female student attacked for wearing Trump hat on campus
Female student attacked for wearing Trump hat on campus:
The incident took place on campus, right before the first presidential debate began, according to a press release put out by the Minnesota College Republicans.
“No one deserves to feel unsafe for wearing a Trump hat, so it’s sad that it has to come to this.”
The victim of the assault has chosen to remain anonymous, saying that she feels unsafe and threatened, and has even resorted to asking campus security to escort her around the college.
While the perpetrator of the assault has not been publicly identified, he is reportedly a male student at Gustavus College.
“She was walking around bothering no one by wearing a Trump hat, she didn’t deserve this and there’s no way that this should’ve happened,” Minnesota Federation of College Republican Chair Amanda Peterson told Campus Reform.
“I wish this was a surprise to me, but it’s not, it’s no secret that college students with conservative leaning viewpoints aren’t strangers to this type of thing on campus.”"
- A female member of the Gustavus College Republicans was verbally assaulted by a male student for wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat shortly before Monday night’s debate.
- According to a statement from the CRs, the male student had to be restrained at one point when he attempted to charge at the female student in fury.
- A report has been filed with campus security, and the college is currently investigating the altercation before deciding upon a response.

Get Your Flu Shot in the Morning
Get Your Flu Shot in the Morning - The New York Times:
"There may be a simple and cost-free way to improve the effectiveness of the flu vaccine:
Get vaccinated in the morning instead of the afternoon.
British researchers randomized 276 men and women over 65 to get their flu shot either from 9 to 11 in the morning or 3 to 5 in the afternoon.
The participants filled out questionnaires to assess health behaviors and socioeconomic status, gave a blood sample, and were given the standard trivalent flu vaccine.
The study is in the journal Vaccine.
A month later they returned to give another blood sample.
The researchers then compared anti-influenza antibodies in the two samples to measure the effect.
After controlling for differences in income, smoking, alcohol consumption, sleep duration and other health and behavioral characteristics, they found that for two of the three influenza strains contained in the vaccine, the response was significantly stronger in those vaccinated in the morning.
For the third strain, morning or afternoon vaccination made no difference..."

Getting a flu shot? It may be better to wait
Getting a flu shot? It may be better to wait - CNN.com:
"An early flu shot is better than no flu shot at all. But the science is mixed when it comes to how long a flu shot promoted and given during the waning days of summer will provide optimal protection, especially because flu season generally peaks in mid-winter or beyond.
Experts are divided on how patients should respond to such offers.
"If you're over 65, don't get the flu vaccine in September.
Or August. It's a marketing scheme," said Laura Haynes, an immunologist at the University of Connecticut Center on Aging.
That's because a combination of factors makes it more difficult for the immune systems of people older than age 65 to respond to the vaccination in the first place.

"WASHINGTON, D.C. – Unless Congress acts this week, President Obama will cede U.S. oversight of the Internet to ICANN, an international organization composed of multinational corporations and more than 160 foreign countries, including Russia, China, and Iran. The president’s radical proposal, scheduled to take effect on October 1, jeopardizes free speech online and has been widely denounced by conservative and grassroots leaders and Members of Congress. "
