More of that "smart diplomacy"......Iran demands right to expand nuclear program

Iran demands right to expand nuclear program | The Daily Caller:
"Ayatollah Ali Khamenei also restated the regime’s view of Israel:
“We have said since the very first day (of the Islamic Revolution), and we do say it now and we will say it in the future as well, that we believe the Zionist regime is an illegitimate and bastard regime.”"

Obama's america------‘You Could Never Anticipate This Happening in the United States of America’

‘You Could Never Anticipate This Happening in the United States of America’ | Video | TheBlaze.com

What began as a simple traffic stop ended in a humiliating and nightmarish ordeal for a New Mexico man. It won’t come as a surprise to most people why the man has now filed a federal civil rights lawsuit.

The incident began on Jan. 2 as David Eckert was leaving the local Walmart in Deming, N.M. He reportedly failed to make a complete stop at a stop sign, prompting police to pull him over.

The officers asked him to step out of the vehicle and claim the man appeared to be clenching his buttocks, Eckert’s attorney, Shannon Kennedy, told TheBlaze. It is unclear why police removed him from the vehicle in the first place. However, because the cops believed he was clenching his buttocks, they took it as reason to suspect him of hiding narcotics in his anal cavity.

Police officers detained Eckert while they sought a search warrant for an anal cavity search.

“What is so strange about this case is they held him with no evidence,” Kennedy said. “They seized him to collect evidence, to go on a fishing expedition on someone’s body.”

Upon securing the warrant, Deming police officers took the man to an emergency room, but hit their first snag when a doctor refused to perform the anal cavity search because he believed it to be “unethical.”

So police tried again at the Gila Regional Medical Center in Silver City, N.M., where doctors agreed to the search.

KOB-TV outlined the disturbing series of events that occurred next, details confirmed by medical records and official documents provided to TheBlaze by Eckert’s attorney:

1. Eckert’s abdominal area was X-rayed; no narcotics were found.

2. Doctors then performed an exam of Eckert’s anus with their fingers; no narcotics were found.

3. Doctors performed a second exam of Eckert’s anus with their fingers; no narcotics were found.

4. Doctors penetrated Eckert’s anus to insert an enema. Eckert was forced to defecate in front of doctors and police officers. Eckert watched as doctors searched his stool. No narcotics were found.

5. Doctors penetrated Eckert’s anus to insert an enema a second time. Eckert was forced to defecate in front of doctors and police officers. Eckert watched as doctors searched his stool. No narcotics were found.

6. Doctors penetrated Eckert’s anus to insert an enema a third time. Eckert was forced to defecate in front of doctors and police officers. Eckert watched as doctors searched his stool. No narcotics were found.

7. Doctors then X-rayed Eckert again; no narcotics were found.

8. Doctors prepared Eckert for surgery, sedated him, and then performed a colonoscopy where a scope with a camera was inserted into Eckert’s anus, rectum, colon and large intestines. No narcotics were found.

Education union thuggery! Teacher's union head spreads slur that concerned parent is a neo-Nazi

Teacher's union head investigates whether parent is neo-Nazi | The Daily Caller:
Pennsylvania father is steaming mad after the head of a local teacher’s union suggested he may be a “neo-Nazi” for questioning a school assignment.
Josh Barry, of Camp Hill, Penn., expressed concern after his daughter brought home an assignment analyzing a New York Times article discussing the recent government shutdown. Examiner.com first reported the story.
The assignment asked questions like, “Whom do you hold most responsible for the government shutdown?” and “Do you feel it is principled or irresponsible for politicians to threaten a shutdown?”
Barry thought it was an exercise in indoctrination.

After contacting his daughter’s teacher, Barry heard back from the school’s principal. After a discussion, a friend of Barry’s relayed a voicemail she received from another teacher named Cydnee Cohen.

Cohen, who is also the president of the local chapter of the teacher’s union — the East Pembrook Education Association, which is part of the Pennsylvania State Education Association (PSEA) — said on the voicemail, “We’re having some problems with a parent in our school district and on his [Facebook] page you are one of his friends … but I would like to know, some of it seems like he is a neo-Nazi.”

...“You have a teacher who’s an officer in the union who looks at these teachers as hers,” said Barry. “Her method is to go after the concerned parent and discredit and slander them.”
Barry called Cohen’s inquisition a case of “big-time union thuggery on display.”
“She’s been taught to associate people who question authority, who raise their fist in the air who say I believe in the Constitution, or don’t indoctrinate my child, as you’re automatically a Nazi,” he said.

Revealed: Obama Campaign Bundler Helping Fund Libertarian in Tight Va. Gubernatorial Race | TheBlaze.com
"A major Democratic Party benefactor and Obama campaign bundler helped pay for professional petition circulators responsible for getting Virginia Libertarian gubernatorial candidate Robert C. Sarvis on the ballot — a move that could split conservative votes in a tight race.

Campaign finance records show the Libertarian Booster PAC has made the largest independent contribution to Sarvis’ campaign, helping to pay for professional petition circulators who collected signatures necessary to get Sarvis’ name on Tuesday’s statewide ballot.

Austin, Texas, software billionaire Joe Liemandt is the Libertarian Booster PAC’s major benefactor. He’s also a top bundler for President Barack Obama."

That people are just saying Obama couldn’t build a website because he is black and you know, they hate him. That’s the president of CNN.
That’s Jeff Zucker.

Union thugs hire legal thugs to annoy judge-----Detroit union lawyer didn't answer key questions, bankruptcy judge says

Detroit union lawyer didn't answer key questions, bankruptcy judge says | Crain's Detroit Business:
"The judge in Detroit's bankruptcy told the top lawyer for the United Auto Workers that he failed to answer the two most important questions he was asked in a trial on whether the city can remain under court protection.

U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Steven Rhodes today repeatedly tried to force the general counsel for the UAW, Michael Nicholson, to say whether the union had negotiated with the city over proposed cuts to pension benefits and health-care benefits for retirees.

"I want to tell you, sir, this question and the last question were probably the two most important questions you were asked here today," Rhodes told Nicholson, a union witness.

When Nicholson began answering by accusing Detroit's emergency manager, Kevyn Orr, of ignoring UAW proposals, Rhodes interrupted him.

"You are not answering the question," the judge said."

How to optimise your WiFi signal

How to optimise your WiFi signal | Hardware.Info United Kingdom:
"A slow wireless connection, it's not fun but it can happen to any of us. We will show you how to perform first-aid next time your home network has an attack of sluggishness. After reading this article you'll be ready to start tinkering around the inner workings of your router. Not with a soldering iron, but with a mouse.

We've all been in this scenario. You're connected to a router and the signal is strong, but internet is really slow. Dial-up connection slow. The signal looks fine, so physically moving the router won't do much. Buying a new router might, but that costs money, and getting a cheap one kind of defeats the purpose.

There are other options. Inside the router there are a number of things you can play around with in order to increase the transfer rate of the wireless signal of your router. We will describe how to make manual adjustments to the bandwidth of the channels and the strength of the signal."

Enviro-nutz ALWAYS choose ANYTHING over kids-----Kid Cages at School Bus Stops Spark Outrage

Kid Cages at School Bus Stops Spark Outrage - David Spady - Page full:
"In Catron County, New Mexico, aggressive Mexican gray wolves are terrorizing residents.
Here wolves are killing pets in front yards in broad daylight, and forcing parents to stand guard when children play outside.
The threat has become so ominous the local school district has decided to place wolf shelters (kid cages) at school bus stops to protect school children from wolves while they wait for the bus or parents. 
These wolf proof cages, constructed from plywood and wire, are designed to prevent wolves from taking a child. 
The absurdity of this scenario is mind-numbing.
What kind of society accepts the idea of children in cages while wolves are free to roam where they choose?"

Ya get more of what ya subsidize........Welfare, Not Full-Time Work, Is Now America's No. 1 Occupation

Welfare, Not Full-Time Work, Is Now America's No. 1 Occupation - Investors.com:
"Dependency: "Is Welfare The New Normal?" we wondered in an editorial last Thursday, and we didn't have long to wait for an answer. On Friday an answer came back in depressing new data from the Census Bureau.
...A Cato Institute study in August found that welfare now pays more than minimum-wage work in 35 states. Indeed, the federal government has 126 separate programs to help low-income earners.
"The current welfare system provides such a high level of benefits that it acts as a disincentive for work," the study said. "Welfare currently pays more than a minimum-wage job in 35 states, even after accounting for the Earned Income Tax Credit, and in 13 states it pays more than $15 per hour."."

Get government out of the way of entrepreneurs and job creators! -------Microbreweries could double beer production under proposed Michigan law

Microbreweries could double beer production under proposed Michigan law | Crain's Detroit Business:
"HB 4709, sponsored by Rep. Kevin Cotter, R-Mt. Pleasant, would increase the amount of beer a microbrewer could brew annually to 60,000 barrels from 30,000.

HB 4710, sponsored by Rep. Peter MacGregor, R-Cannon Township, would allow a brewpub to have an interest in as many as five other brewpubs, as long as the combined production of those brewpubs does not exceed 18,000 barrels in a year. The law now limits a brewpub to having an interest in up to two others, so long as combined production does not exceed 5,000 barrels a year, according to a House Fiscal Agency analysis.

HB 4711, sponsored by Rep. Andy Schor, D-Lansing, would allow a brewer to sell beer for on-premises consumption at up to two of its licensed locations where it produces beer. The law now only allows for a brewer to sell its beer for on-premises consumption at one location.

Under state law, microbreweries can sell only the beer they produce, and they cannot sell wine or spirits. "
