I don’t know what’s going on here, but it’s begiing to scare me a little.
Get your life in order!
Jesus loves you!
The Daily Mail reports that the mystery of mass animal death epidemic deepens after 8,000 turtle doves fall dead in Italy with strange blue stain on their beaksBlue stain believed to be sign of poisoning or hypoxia - lack of oxygen that is precursor to altitude sickness
Cold weather and overbreeding blamed for deaths of two 2million fish in Chesapeake Bay
Disease behind deaths of 100,000 fish in Arkansas River
At least nine incidents of mass animal deaths across the globe
Hundreds of confused birds plummeted to their deaths in multiple locations in the U.S.
Rapid movement of Magnetic North Pole towards Russia may have caused bird deaths
Thousands of dead turtle doves rained down on roofs and cars in an Italian town in the latest in a growing spate of mass animal deaths across the globe.
Residents in Faenza described the birds falling to the ground like 'little Christmas balls' with strange blue stains on their beaks.
Initial tests on up to 8,000 of the doves indicated that the blue stain could have been caused by poisoning or hypoxia.
All of a sudden 4 year old photos embarrassing Republican congresswoman Mary Bono Mack pop out of nowhere? Looks to me like desperate Democrat operative are trying to undermine GOPers who want to repeal ObamaCare.
But in any event, Congresswoman Mary Bono Mack apparently likes to get freaky deaky at parties and doesn’t mind getting her boobs slobbed in the process.
RadarOnline.com has exclusively obtained the photo which shows the powerful politician in a playful, but compromising position with a campaign donor who is now being investigated by the FBI.
Bono, 49, is a Republican lawmaker representing California's 45th congressional district and sits on the Committee on Energy and Commerce.
She is the widow of Sonny Bono and has been in Congress since 1998.
The woman apparently licking Bono's breast is Edra Blixseth, a disgraced former billionaire who is at the center of a criminal investigation probing whether she made fraudulent representations about her financial worth to a number of banks.
In a scandal set to rock Capitol Hill, adarOnline.com has learned the image was taken at an out-of-control event four-years-ago, at Blixseth's $75 million Porcupine Creek estate in Rancho Mirage, California.
With her head thrown back, Bono's plunging bra is exposed as Blixseth -- who now dates Dallas actor Jack Scalia after splitting from her husband Tim in 2008 -- is seen diving into the politician's cleavage with her tongue out.
"Mary was partying hard," one source, who was at the event, told RadarOnline.com. "She was blitzed and clearly having a great time."
For my fellows New Yorkers who live on the Upper Westside and swear by MSNBC for all their news, you’re putting your trust in a bunch of Liberal idiots like yourselves.
TPM says, “Earth to MSNBC executives: your anchor, your reporter, and your editors do not know what they’re talking about. They just badly misinformed your viewers.
The “debt ceiling” is a limit on debt, not spending. The “ceiling” is an artificial limit set by Congress; it can be raised, even repealed, with zero harm to the Republic. There is no intrinsic reason why the US cannot raise its level of debt above current levels. There are, however, many reasons why it should raise this arbitrary limit to avoid serious harm to the credit of the United States. Your report explained none of them.
Mr. Lui’s tee shirt is mislabeled. Spending is not debt. In the simplest terms, the total debt is the accumulated difference between revenues and spending. Mr. Lui’s tee shirt, by itself, is meaningless, and his explanation is misleading.
You might have explained that there are no spending cut proposals from Republicans that would not require raising the debt ceiling by from several hundred billions to over a trillion dollars. That’s because the additional debt from this year’s budget, never mind next year’s, is over a trillion dollars. Treasury says we’ll likely hit the current arbitrary ceiling by March or so. The ever-shrinking Republican proposals would cut less that $50 billion this year. So under the Republican proposals, the debt ceiling must be raised by several hundred billions this year and more next year.
So ditch the clowns, MSNBC, and explain this correctly. You owe your audience a correction. Jeez.”
I’m trying very hard to keep track of the plight of a Christian woman that faces death at the hands of blood thirty Muslims in Pakistan. Wouldn’t it be nice if our president, Barack Obama, said more about this case for a fellow Christian in danger?
He is a Christian isn’t he?
Daily News & Analysis reports that Asia Bibi, the Christian woman who triggered a blasphemy furore in Pakistan and in whose defense Punjab governor Salman Taseer lost his life, is facing a threat of a suicide attack inside a jail, where she is currently lodged.
The "Moaviya group", a militant organization plans to mount a suicide attack on Sheikhupura district jail, where 45-year-old Asia is being held, The Express Tribune quoted its sources as saying. An intelligence report issued last week has corroborated threat to her life.
Punjab police and jail authorities subsequently beefed up security due to the intelligence report and the assassination of Taseer.
Asia Bibi was sentenced to death last year after being convicted under the blasphemy law for insulting Prophet Mohammed. She denied the charge and said she was framed by a group of Muslim women with whom she had a row.
The story of Ted Williams is by no means unique. There are probably thousands if not millions of people in this country who also have a special talent or talents that can make them very productive people in society.
But, as Ted Williams freely admits, “drugs, alcohol and other things came into his life…” and the God-given voice that Ted Williams was blessed with was squandered in self-destruction.
I have friends and family members with the same exact story. You can probably say the same, and multiply that through the country and we’re all interconnected by the same kind of tragedy.
Many never find their way back!
However, the road back from self inflected wounds starts with the individual who has to decide for himself or herself that enough is enough. No government program can do it for them or just throwing money at the problem will break the cycle of dependency on society.
Ted Williams had the ability all along to be a better father to his children and a better man in general. And he has finally realized that God gave him a special gift of a heavenly voice that he now gives thanks to God for on a daily basis.
Liberals will always give themselves away without realizing it. For example look at how these 3 Libs demonstrate their disdain for our constitution
To Bill Press’s point about the “right to privacy” being in the constitution.
IT’S A LIE!
Look up the constitution online, copy and paste it to a word document and do a find search, and you won’t find “right of privacy” in it. This is the biggest falsehood liberals have been telling since 1973 that became the cornerstone for the Roe vs Wade decision that has resulted in 50 million abortions and counting in this country.
When two officers arrived at her flat in Chicago she told them she had made up the story and hoped their presence would 'scare' her boyfriend into proposing.
But the officers were unamused and charged the 40-year old with disorderly conduct.
The boyfriend later told police he had not intention of marrying Perez and had been in the process of breaking up with her.
Finally, the nightmare course that President Obama and the Democrats have put America through is stopping dead in its tracks.
Don’t pay attention to the Obama loving mainstream media that are doing their best mislead the public. The reason the Democrats lost The House is due to the fact that the United States is not a European socialist democracy!
The people have spoken and will continue to speak at the ballot box.
Liberalism has put California, Michigan, New Jersey and New York on the brink of insolvency and President Obama was poised to do the same thing for the nation as a whole with his oppressive job killing big government policies.
But, America has awakened from the nightmare and a new day is dawning.
After two years of embracing their status as the "party of no," Republicans say they are ready to take the reins and put new emphasis on cutting government spending and reducing the size of the federal bureaucracy.
"The American people have humbled us. They have refreshed our memories as to just how temporary the privilege to serve is," Boehner said after taking the speaker's gavel. "Hard work and tough decisions will be required of the 112th Congress. No longer can we fall short. No longer can we kick the can down the road. The people voted to end business as usual, and today we begin carrying out their instructions." But as the House got down to business, partisan jabs also returned from a winter break, CBS News Correspondent Nancy Cordes reports.
"Our mission is not to redistribute wealth or tell people how to live their lives," Virginia Rep. Eric Cantor said after officially being installed as majority leader.
All but nine of the 96 new members are Republicans. "My head is somewhat spinning because not 20 minutes ago the new speaker of the House stood where you are and said he was going to be listening to people," Rep. Louise Slaughter, D-N.Y., said while speaking on the floor.
Boehner received 241 votes from the new House, in which Republicans have a 49-seat majority. Outgoing Democratic Speaker Nancy Pelosi received 173, and 19 votes were cast for other congressmen. After his election, Boehner walked to the podium with tears in his eyes (as he is wont to do). His colleagues gave him a standing ovation.
Republicans' goal is to "give government back to the people," Boehner said.
I can relate to the customer in this video because my local store doesn’t sell pork either. The owners are from Yemen and they’ve been in the neighborhood for years.
Apparently, this KFC employee down under in Austrialia took exception to being asked for swine.
The violent outburst happened at a Halal-friendly KFC in Punchbowl on December 26, allegedly after a customer became angry after being refused bacon on their burger.
The Punchbowl restaurant does not serve bacon or pork in accordance with Islamic law, and one employee can be heard saying "we don't have bacon" before the other begins yelling.
"Don't record me bitch!" he screams as he approaches the counter. "Don't f---ing record me!"
The employee continues to yell and smacks the cash register display on its side, before other workers grab him and lead him outside.
"I'm gonna f---in break your head bro," he says to the person filming as he is led around the corner out of sight.
A spokesman for KFC Australia told ninemsn the employee had been suspended over the incident and offered counselling.
"KFC Australia strongly condemns the behavior of the team member who appears in the clip and sincerely apologizes for this very inappropriate reaction," the spokesman said
An undated portrait of Mark Twain, born Samuel Langhorne Clemens. The word (which this newspaper does not print) appears 219 times. In its place, Twain scholar Alan Gribben of Auburn University is substituting "slave." He's also doing away with a slang term for Indians in the forthcoming edition from NewSouth Books.
"After a number of talks, I was sought out by local teachers, and to a person they said we would love to teach this novel, and Huckleberry Finn, but we feel we can't do it anymore," he told PW. "In the new classroom, it's really not acceptable."
I’m vehemently against this kind of censorship foe a very specific reason. If we as a society allow this kind of absurdity to pass without serious examinations as to its dangers, then we open the door to other words that some fools, aka Liberals, want to target.
The day is coming very soon that words like “Christian” “bible” and even “Jesus” is gonna be offensive to enough stupid people in this country that they’ll try in the name of “sensitivity” and “fairness” to remove them from ever being spoken in public, let alone being able to buy in books containing them.
This man has a fantastic voice and should be working somewhere either on TV or radio. I really wish him well because he’s blessed with wonderful pipes.
CBS News reports to get ready to start hearing about Ted Williams - not the baseball player but the "golden voiced" homeless man about to get a second chance in Columbus, Ohio. Williams, a panhandler near Interstate 71, solicits donations with a sign saying that he's an ex-radio announcer with a "god-given gift" who has fallen on hard times.
A reporter from the Columbus Dispatch spoke to him and the result was an amazing video in which Williams demonstrates his soothing croon and explains how he went from a successful career to panhandling.
God bless you, brother and stay strong and straight in the Lord!
KTSN News reports that the the NBA's Cleveland Cavaliers has offered a job to Ted Williams, 53, to do voice-over work and other jobs after a video posted of Williams and his sultry voice surfaced online.
The Columbus Dispatch web site posted the video of Williams giving small snippets of his “golden” voice work. The sign Williams holds reads “I have a God-given gift of a great voice.” The tenor voiced
Williams has received countless offers, including the $10,000 offer for voice-over work.
Williams is a father of seven girls and two boys. Williams was contacted by the Cavaliers on Wednesday, and offered him a position that could include announcing work at Quicken Loans Arena. Williams said the team offered him a two-year contract.
Williams is scheduled to appear on the “Today” show on Thursday.
The governor of Punjab was assassinated today because he dared wanted to pardon Asia Bibi from facing the death penalty.
But, a so-called practitioner of the Islam, the dubious religion of peace continue to thirst for Bibi’s blood and as a result a good and civilized man is murdered for wanting to do what is right.
CBN.com reports that a powerful Pakistani governor was shot and killed Tuesday by one of his own guards.
Salman Taseer governed Punjab, the wealthiest and most populous province in Pakistan.
Officials say the guard who shot him was angry about the politician's stance against the country's blasphemy law. The law came under scrutiny in recent weeks when a Christian women, Asia Bibi, was sentence to death for insulting Islam.
The American press who has adopted Islam as the religion that needs defending, stays strangely silent as Christians are killed by Muslims in all parts of the world. This is how clueless Liberals are about Islam.
Officials tells CBS News that Navy Capt. Owen Honors will likely be relieved of duty of the USS Enterprise perhaps as early as Tuesday as the Navy investigates lewd videos he produced aboard the Enterprise.
Videos just coming to light show the crew of the Navy aircraft carrier got an eyeful on shipboard TV: Gay slurs, suggestive shower scenes and mimicked masturbation in clips made not by some sailor run amok but by the ship's second-most powerful officer.
CBS News Correspondent Bob Orr reports that officials said privately that it's very likely Honors will not be on board as the commander of the Enterprise when the ship leaves port later this month. Honors is the star of the videos, made in 2006 and 2007.
He was executive officer - the second in command - when the videos were made. The Navy said Sunday it will investigate the "clearly inappropriate" videos shown through the nuclear-powered ship's closed-circuit television system as part of an onboard movie night.
This is a very poor decision by the Navy that will do more harm than good.
The crew Capt Honors commands overwhelmingly supports their captain! These videos were made to be funny and help ease the stress of serving on an air craft carrier. I don’t see anything inappropriate about these videos.
This is a U.S. warship for God’s sakes, let them let off stream in any way they see fit.
Is the Navy saying Gays and Women are capable of facing bullets and bombs for their country, but crude jokes are too much for them?
Every American should always pay close attention to what happens in Europe. Eventually what starts there has a nasty way of creeping over here especially when Liberals are in charge.
People’s retirement savings are a convenient source of revenue for governments that don’t want to reduce spending or make privatizations. As most pension schemes in Europe are organised by the state, European ministers of finance have a facilitated access to the savings accumulated there, and it is only logical that they try to get a hold of this money for their own ends.
In recent weeks I have noted five such attempts:
Three situations concern private personal savings; two others refer to national funds.
The most striking example is Hungary, where last month the government made the citizens an offer they could not refuse. They could either remit their individual retirement savings to the state, or lose the right to the basic state pension (but still have an obligation to pay contributions for it). In this extortionate way, the government wants to gain control over $14bn of individual retirement savings.
The article goes on to detail other pension grabs in Bulgaria, Poland, France and Ireland. Obviously, this is a cautionary tale for America. If fiscal austerity becomes a real issue in the U.S. the way that it's been reaching critical mass in Europe -- don't think that U.S. lawmakers regard your either your personal wealth or money they might owe you as sacrosanct. Government has a habit of looking out for itself.
CBS News reports that Leon Walker of Rochester Hills, MI says he learned of his wife's affair by reading her e-mail on their computer. Walker faces trial on felony computer misuse charges
What’s the big deal here? Are they suppose to show kids videos on a Navy ship? If were going to have openly gay military, then expect to be openly mocked as well.
The star of the videos, made in 2006 and 2007, is a former Top Gun pilot who now commands the same ship, the Norfolk-based USS Enterprise , which was deployed in the Middle East at the time.
The Virginian-Pilot newspaper reported on the videos in its Saturday editions and posted an edited version of one video on its website. In May, Honors was named commanding officer of the Enterprise. CBS News correspondent Bob Orr reports that the ship is scheduled to depart for the Middle East again in just weeks -- but still in question is whether the ship's top officer will be on board.
The Virginian-Pilot reports that crew members complained about the videos when they were first broadcast, more then three years ago. Those who voiced complaints say they were brushed off. Capt. Owen Honors appeared in the videos while he was the USS Enterprise's executive officer - the second in command - and they aired on the ship's closed-circuit television. Honors took over as the ship's commander in May. It's not immediately known why the videos are surfacing now.
The Virginian-Pilot quoted anonymous crew members who said they raised concerns aboard the ship about the videos when they aired, but they were brushed off. It's clear from the videos that Honors had already gotten complaints when some of them were made.
"Over the years I've gotten several complaints about inappropriate material during these videos, never to me personally but, gutlessly, through other channels," he said in the introduction to the video posted by the newspaper.
Allen West is a breath of fresh air to the GOP and look for him and other Tea Party backed candidates to put pressure on the GOP legacy leaders, aka the Pussies-R-Us club.
I trust the new breed GOP much more than these beltway infected leadership we have now.
Roger Ebert taught me a lot about the fine points of what made a great movie. Watching his show was a must see for movie buffs like myself.
Ravaged by cancer, Ebert refuses to stand down.
CBS News reports that he's been called America's movie critic. For more than four decades, Roger Ebert has guided our choices at the box office. His syndicated newspaper column and trademark "thumbs up/thumbs down" routine with TV partner Gene Siskel were legendary.
But now that famous voice has been silenced. "Do you remember what your last spoken words were?" asked Bowers. "No, because I didn't know they would be my last words, or I would have written something great," Ebert replied.
For the past three years, Ebert has been talking via a computer voice that speaks what he types. His lower jaw is gone, ravaged by cancer that nearly killed him. "Are you able to talk in your dreams?" Bowers asked. "Everything is fine in my dreams. I talk all I want. Life is normal," he said. "Sometimes in a dream I will remember that I can't speak, but then suddenly I can speak again."
Ebert could surely never have dreamed this storyline for his life when he began at the Chicago Sun-Times back in 1967. His elegant style and wit quickly made his movie reviews must-reads.
Sandra Lee is the glamorous, live-in love of Gov. Cuomo - and nobody seems to mind that they're not married.
"The times, they have changed!" said Doug Muzzio, a Baruch College political expert. "Divorce or living together without being married are no longer a big deal. I mean, it's the societal norm."
Though some may still raise eyebrows over Cuomo's relationship with the Food Network star, it's raised nary a public whisper from political rivals - or religious leaders.
Not all New Yorkers are so willing to ignore that Andrew Cuomo is a fornicator, meaning that he engages in sex with his live-in gal pal without being married.
I’m sure the Catholic church, which Cuomo is a member of is not ignoring either.
The thing about Liberals is that they don’t hold themselves to any kind of morality which is why they can get away with any kind of depravity under the sun.
Their morality is anything that is popular at a given moment amongst themselves.
For example, if it were chic to live and have sex with a Baboon and a growing majority of Liberal minded people did it, then that’s the only standard a Liberal needs.
Forget about what Christianity, Islam, or Judaism teaches about sex with animals. Those are old notions that have no relevance to the Liberal.
If Oprah Winfrey says it’s okay then that's like coming from the burning bush for Liberals,
The terms which used to apply to Andrew Cuomo’s situation were “living in sim”, “making an honest woman out of ‘the girl friend””, and “fornication” which is still recognized under Catholic law to this day.
So the Liberal press may want to try to sell the idea that public doesn't really care.
I guess Obama has been reading this blog because I’ve been hammering him for weeks for his failure to condemn the recent killing of Christians at the hands of Muslims. But, typical Obama, he falls short of properly framing the issue.
I strongly condemn the separate and outrageous terrorist bombing attacks in Egypt and Nigeria. The attack on a church in Alexandria, Egypt caused 21 reported deaths and dozens of injured from both the Christian and Muslim communities. The perpetrators of this attack were clearly targeting Christian worshipers, and have no respect for human life and dignity. They must be brought to justice for this barbaric and heinous act. We are continuing to gather information regarding this terrible event, and are prepared to offer any necessary assistance to the Government of Egypt in responding to it.
The attack near an army barracks in Abuja also reportedly killed more than 20 people and wounded many more. Killing innocent civilians who were simply gathering – like so many people around the world – to celebrate the beginning of a New Year further demonstrates the bankrupt vision of those who carry out these attacks, and we are similarly prepared to offer assistance to the Government of Nigeria as it works to bring the perpetrators to justice.
The United States extends its deepest condolences to the families of those killed and to the wounded in both of these attacks, and we stand with the Nigerian and Egyptian people at this difficult time.
The commercial aircraft — a DC-9 that was not responding to radio messages from air traffic controllers, according to one source — was intercepted and guided to Reagan National Airport, Capitol Police told congressional staff.
The FAA told the Associated Press that the aircraft was a Piedmont Airlines flight from Hilton Head, S.C., which lost radio contact due to pilot error. Piedmont is a subsidiary of US Airways.
It was first noticed at 1:30 p.m., triggering an "Aircon Red" — or air condition red — alert. E-mail evacuation notices went out to House and Senate members and staff just after 1:40 p.m., and the all-clear, a return to "Aircon Green," was given about 20 minutes later.
But despite the clearance notice from police, alarms were still audible a mile away from the Capitol more than an hour after the episode was said to have ended and aides reported that they still did not have access to their offices.
What I find so interesting about the attitude of MSNBC Cenk Uygur concerning why a Gay man would be a Republican is that it’s the same condescending thinking that expects Blacks and Latinos to automatically be Democrats.
But, that’s the Democrat Party, a collection of different groups that don’t really think for themselves and are expected to robotically pull the lever for Democrats.
This video is of a New Jersey resident giving Gov Chris Christie the business. Actually I think the strets look better than the ones in New York City.
Snow removal is the responsibility of local mayors-period! That’s why New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg continues to catch hell here in New York City and deservedly so.
Christie signed a letter in Freehold officially requesting aid from the federal government and then took questions, blaming mayors for people being trapped in their homes and Democrats and the media for the attention being given to his decisions to remain in Disney World on a family vacation while the state was inundated with snow.
"I would give the folks in New Jersey state government and the county government an A for the effort we put in," Christie said. "We probably get a B for results."
Christie said the state will review the clean-up effort and report to him and the public about changes that should be made to better respond to future storms.
By Thursday 95 percent of state roads were cleared and the state Department of Transportation received no requests from mayors to help clear local roads, Christie said.
"I don't know whether we're supposed to have ESP when we have 566 municipalities," Christie said. When asked about the hundreds of people trapped in their homes for days, Christie said unless they lived on state roads, it's not something his administration would have been able to change.
"If someone is snowed into their house, that's not our responsibility," Christie said.
When asked about mayors who said they were forced to divert their resources to unplowed state roads instead of clearing local roads Christie said, "I know who these mayors are and they should buck up and take responsibility for the fact that they didn't do their job."
Christie made international news when the storm dumped nearly three feet of snow in some places and he remained in Florida. He said he had promised his children that he would take them to the resort the week between Christmas and New Years and didn't want to go back on that promise. He said since he flew on a commercial airline it would have likely been impossible for him to return to the state earlier, adding that his flight this morning was delayed several hours.
If you’re a Christian in a Muslim dominated country, you are marked for death. Yet, when Muslims come to the United States they demand to be treated special by refusing to assimilate into the culture. However, our constitution dictates that we be tolerant of other faiths and offer them equal protection under the law.
That is not the case in the Middle East and it is unacceptable that the same kind of tolerance does not exist there!
Until I see the day that Christian churches can be built in Saudi Arabia and other Muslim dominated countries, until I see the day that so-called moderate Muslims will begin to speak out against the killing of Christians, and until I see the day that Muslims in the Middle East can demonstrate religious tolerance such as we have here in the United States, I will continue to view these people as perpetrators of peace and faith.
The attack came in the wake of repeated threats by al Qaeda militants in Iraq to attack Egypt's Christians. A direct al Qaeda hand in the bombing would be a dramatic development, as Egypt's government has long denied that the terror network has a significant presence in the country. Al Qaeda in Iraq has already been waging a campaign of violence against Christians in that country.
Police initially said the blast came from an explosives-packed car parked outside the Saints Church in the Mediterranean port city. But the Interior Ministry later said it was more likely from a suicide bomber who blew himself up among the crowd. Both tactics are hallmarks of al Qaeda and have been rarely used in Egypt, where the government crushed an insurgency by Islamic militants in the 1990s.
Though the government of President Hosni Mubarak denies an al Qaeda presence, Egypt does have a rising movement of Islamic hard-liners who, while they do not advocate violence, adhere to an ideology similar in other ways to al Qaeda. There have been fears they could be further radicalized amid growing sectarian tensions between Egypt's Muslim majority and Christian minority. Nearly 1,000 Christians were attending the New Year's Mass at the Saints Church, said Father Mena Adel, a priest at the church.
The service had just ended, and some worshippers were leaving the building when the bomb went off about a half hour after midnight, he said. "The last thing I heard was a powerful explosion and then my ears went deaf," Marco Boutros, a 17-year-old survivor, said from his hospital bed. "All I could see were body parts scattered all over - legs and bits of flesh."
Blood splattered the facade of the church, as well as a mosque directly across the street. Bodies of many of the dead were collected from the street and kept inside the church overnight before they were taken away Saturday by ambulances for burial. Some Christians carried white sheets with the sign of the cross emblazoned on them with what appeared to be the blood of the victims. Mubarak vowed to track down those behind the attack, saying "we will cut off the hands of terrorists and those plotting against Egypt's security."
"This terrorist act has shaken the conscience of the nation," he said in a statement, adding that "all Egypt was targeted, and terrorism does not distinguish between Copt and Muslim."
I don’t know what’s going on here, but it’s begiing to scare me a little.
