The following editorial appeared in the Miami Herald on Thursday:
Now that the latest episode of government-by-crisis is over, for the moment, it's obvious that the entire spectacle was totally unnecessary. The Affordable Care Act, the Republican target of this failed gambit, survived unscathed and opponents have little to show for bringing the nation to the brink of default.
That should be one of the big lessons of the government shutdown: The only way to change a law is through the political and legislative process that has served this nation well for centuries. That means winning elections and engaging in the customary business of voting for or against bills in Congress, not throwing tantrums.
Resorting to extreme methods like closing the government and threatening to renege on the debt to change the law is an unworkable tactic. It might please a narrow political base, but it's unpopular with everyone else.
Republicans are getting most of the blame because voters believe that keeping the government open is a fundamental responsibility of their elected representatives. Imagine that.
Another lesson worth keeping in mind is that closing the government and threatening to default causes real and lasting damage.
Sure, national parks have reopened and furloughed workers will get back pay. But businesses that rely on tourists won't get all the money those visitors didn't spend when the parks were closed. Billions in retail sales never happened because workers were left without paychecks and had to forgo purchases.
Americans who rely on government services of all kinds, from veterans to children in Head Start programs, were also left in the lurch. Consumer confidence suffered, the credibility of the American economy was weakened and the borrowing ability of the U.S. government eroded because faith in the dollar as the world's most reliable currency was questioned around the globe and at home. And for what?
There were no winners in this shoddy display of government dysfunction, except possibly for a bipartisan group of five women in the Senate who came up with a compromise offer days before the default deadline. They showed the good old boys how the game is supposed to be played.
On the other side were hard-liners like Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, who voted against the eventual deal to reopen the government. That's a disappointment. We expected better of Rubio, who should bear in mind that he represents one of the biggest and most diverse states in the country rather than a partisan faction that puts a premium on ideological rigidity.
President Obama was able to hold onto his signature legislative act, health care reform, but he did little to burnish his leadership credentials. His best chance to regain the initiative is to undertake a campaign to bring down the deficit and national debt.
That is the fundamental dispute between Democrats and Republicans. Obama has an obligation to strive for a budget deal with his political adversaries, but he must be willing to get his hands dirty in deal-making rather than assuming his usual above-the-fray stance.
That puts an equal obligation on Republican leaders like Speaker John Boehner and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell to show flexibility, just as McConnell and Majority Leader Harry Reid had to be willing to work with each other to avoid the catastrophe of a default.
That may be the most important lesson of this whole ugly mess. In a divided government, it takes compromise to reach a sensible and successful outcome.

Majority of Americans Still 'Believe' in Global Warming

Top Science Panel Caught in Another Global Warming Data Fraud
By John O'Sullivan Wednesday, December 1, 2010
Newly released science book revelation is set to heap further misery on UN global warming researchers. Will latest setback derail Cancun Climate conference?
Authors of a new book Slaying the Sky Dragon: Death of the Greenhouse Gas Theory claim they have debunked the widely established greenhouse gas theory climate change. In the first of what they say will be a series of sensational statements to promote the launch of their book, they attack a cornerstone belief of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) - what is known as the carbon isotope argument.
Mio Alkalaj, is one of 24 expert authors of this two-volume publication, among them are qualified climatologists, prominent skeptic scientists and a world leading math professor. It is Alkalajs chapter in the second of the two books that exposes the fraud concerning the isotopes 13C/12C found in carbon dioxide (CO2).
If true, the disclosure may possibly derail last-ditch attempts at a binding international treaty to halt man-made global warming. At minimum the story will be sure to trigger a fresh scandal for the beleaguered United Nations body.
Do Human Emissions of Carbon Dioxide Exhibit a Distinct Signature?
The low-key internal study focused on the behavior of 13C/12C isotopes within carbon dioxide (CO2) molecules and examined how the isotopes decay over time. Its conclusions became the sole basis of claims that newer airborne CO2 exhibits a different and thus distinct human signature. The paper was employed by the IPCC to give a green light to researchers to claim they could quantify the amount of human versus natural proportions just from counting the number of isotopes within that greenhouse gas.
Alkalaj, who is head of Center for Communication Infrastructure at the J. Stefan Institute, Slovenia says because of the nature of organic plant decay, that emits CO2, such a mass spectrometry analysis is bogus. Therefore, it is argues, IPCC researchers are either grossly incompetent or corrupt because it is impossible to detect whether carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere is of human or organic origin.
Skeptics Out to Derail Cancun Climate Conference?
Cynics are already claiming Isotope-gate is more than just a promotional stunt to hype this book launch. They say its also deliberately timed to disrupt the latest major international climate conference in Cancun, Mexico (November 29th - December 10th).
The Cancun Climate conference (COP 16) is seen as a make or break attempt by world leaders to secure a binding international treaty to limit emissions of carbon dioxide after the failure of the Copenhagen Climate Summit last year. Copenhagen was undermined by the Climategate revelations and this latest attempt by skeptics may be a repeat.
The Isotope-gate story is one of many planned promotional releases from the book and this publication is bound to cause embarrassment to delegates in Mexico if the revelations it contains become widely known.
Worryingly for Cancun (and the IPCC) this new book makes far bolder claims than have been made before by skeptics. Its authors say they have scientifically and mathematically disproved the greenhouse gas theory. The theory is the bedrock of all scientific claims that humans are responsible for climate change.
Slayers Book Reveals New Evidence of UN Climate Fraud
The 13C/12C argument being attacked by Mio Alkalaj may be found in IPCCs AR4The Physical Science Basis Working Group. The IPCC clarifies its position on Page 139 of that chapter.
According to Mio the fatal assumption made by the IPCC is that the atmospheric concentration of the 13C isotope (distinctive in prehistoric plants) are fixed. They also assume C3-type plants no longer exist so would need to be factored into the equations. Indeed, as Mio points out such plants, make up 95% of the mass of all current plant life.
Therefore, decay of 95% of present-day plant material is constantly emitting the 13C-deficient carbon dioxide supposedly characteristic of coal combustionand CO2 emitted by plant decay is an order of magnitude greater than all human-generated emissions.
Isotope-gate is Twin Brother of Himalayagate
But a more sinister twist to the story is not just that the researchers erred in mistakenly overlooking the flaws about the 13C isotope, but that they never referred the analysis to outsider verification.
As with the Himalayagate controversy, the Prentice paper was never reviewed beyond the secretive four walls of UN climate alarmism; it relied entirely on an internal uncorroborated source.
On this cynical practice Mio observes, Few readers will be bothered to follow the trail all the way and especially not the policymakers. But the few that do frequently find out that the argument is circular (A quotes B and B quotes A), etc.
Thus, there exists no proof of any such distinct human signal anywhere in samples of atmospheric CO2 and the IPCC is discredited. Therefore, once again, the public has been shown compelling evidence of how it was duped by junk science promoted knowingly by an international gang of fraudsters.

Climate Change: It's the Sun, Stupid
by Randall Hoven
Guess who wrote this.
"The Sun is the primary forcing of Earth's climate system. Sunlight warms our world. Sunlight drives atmospheric and oceanic circulation patterns. Sunlight powers the process of photosynthesis that plants need to grow. Sunlight causes convection which carries warmth and water vapor up into the sky where clouds form and bring rain. In short, the Sun drives almost every aspect of our world's climate system and makes possible life as we know it.
"... According to scientists' models of Earth's orbit and orientation toward the Sun indicate that our world should be just beginning to enter a new period of cooling -- perhaps the next ice age...
"Other important forcings of Earth's climate system include such "variables" as clouds, airborne particulate matter, and surface brightness. Each of these varying features of Earth's environment has the capacity to exceed the warming influence of greenhouse gases and cause our world to cool. " [Emphases added.]
Lord Monckton didn't write that. Neither did physicist Richard Lindzen, physicist William Happer, or physicist Hal Lewis. Nor was it Steve McIntyre who blew the whistle on the "hockey stick." It was none of the usual suspects among the "skeptic" community.
It was NASA, home of our space program, the currently unmuzzled James Hansen and one of the major centers for collecting climate data and analyzing it. (HT: Ace.)
The NASA statement is simply astounding to me. It says, quite unambiguously, that our climate is dominated by the sun and our orientation to it. It also credits non-carbon sources as "important forcings" of our climate: clouds, particulate matter and surface brightness. Finally, it warns of coming global cooling!
Of course, the NASA statement still says there is human-caused warming. But, it will be swamped by these other forces to yield net cooling. In short, whatever man is doing to the climate, it is insignificant in the face of natural forcings.
The science "consensus" has not only collapsed, it has raised the white flag and confessed that the skeptics were right all along. I think we can stick a fork in the climate change agenda. A few nuts will continue to wander the streets, mumbling to themselves and each other. But as a significant political agenda, I think it's over. I sure hope it is.
Posted 23 December 2010 - 06:24 PM
As directed from this topic Predjudice and bias in "Science" to here. Here's something to chew on. Read the comments also. Plus I've added a link to the question of Milankovitch theory of ice ages at the bottom of the post.
From Real Climate
Myth vs. Fact Regarding the "Hockey Stick"
Numerous myths regarding the so-called "hockey stick" reconstruction of past temperatures, can be found on various non-peer reviewed websites, internet newsgroups and other non-scientific venues. The most widespread of these myths are debunked below:
MYTH #0: Evidence for modern human influence on climate rests entirely upon the "Hockey Stick" Reconstruction of Northern Hemisphere mean temperatures indicating anomalous late 20th century warmth.
This peculiar suggestion is sometimes found in op-ed pieces and other dubious propaganda, despite its transparant absurdity. Paleoclimate evidence is simply one in a number of independent lines of evidence indicating the strong likelihood that human influences on climate play a dominant role in the observed 20th century warming of the earths surface. Perhaps the strongest piece of evidence in support of this conclusion is the evidence from so-called Detection and Attribution Studies. Such studies demonstrate that the pattern of 20th century climate change closely matches that predicted by state-of-the-art models of the climate system in response to 20th century anthropogenic forcing (due to the combined influence of anthropogenic greenhouse gas concentrations and industrial aerosol increases).
MYTH #1: The "Hockey Stick" Reconstruction is based solely on two publications by climate scientist Michael Mann and colleagues (Mann et al, 1998;1999).
This is patently false. Nearly a dozen model-based and proxy-based reconstructions of Northern Hemisphere mean temperature by different groups all suggest that late 20th century warmth is anomalous in a long-term (multi-century to millennial) context (see Figures 1 and 2 in Temperature Variations in Past Centuries and The So-Called Hockey Stick).
Some proxy-based reconstructions suggest greater variability than others. This greater variability may be attributable to different emphases in seasonal and spatial emphasis (see Jones and Mann, 2004; Rutherford et al, 2004; Cook et al, 2004). However, even for those reconstructions which suggest a colder Little Ice Age and greater variability in general in past centuries, such as that of Esper et al (2002), late 20th century hemispheric warmth is still found to be anomalous in the context of the reconstruction (see Cook et al, 2004).
MYTH #2: Regional proxy evidence of warm or anomalous (wet or dry) conditions in past centuries contradicts the conclusion that late 20th century hemispheric mean warmth is anomalous in a long-term (multi-century to millennial) context.
Such claims reflect a lack of awareness of the distinction between regional and large-scale climate change. Similar such claims were recently made in two articles by astronomer Willie Soon and co-authors (Soon and Baliunas, 2003; Soon et al, 2003). These claims were subsequently rebutted by a group of more than a dozen leading climate scientists in an article in the journal Eos of the American Geophysical Union (Mann et al, Eos, 2003). The rebuttal raised, among other points, the following two key points:
(1) In drawing conclusions regarding past regional temperature changes from proxy records, it is essential to assess proxy data for actual sensitivity to past temperature variability. In some cases (Soon and Baliunas, 2003, Soon et al, 2003) a global warm anomaly has been defined for any period during which various regions appear to indicate climate anomalies that can be classified as being either warm, wet, or dry relative to 20th century conditions. Such a criterion could be used to define any period of climate as warm or cold, and thus cannot meaningfully characterize past large-scale surface temperature changes.
(2) It is essential to distinguish (e.g. by compositing or otherwise assimilating different proxy information in a consistent mannere.g., Jones et al., 1998; Mann et al., 1998, 1999; Briffa et al., 2001) between regional temperature changes and changes in global or hemispheric mean temperature. Specific periods of cold and warmth differ from region to region over the globe (see Jones and Mann, 2004), as changes in atmospheric circulation over time exhibit a wave-like character, ensuring that certain regions tend to warm (due, for example, to a southerly flow in the Northern Hemisphere winter mid-latitudes) when other regions cool (due to the corresponding northerly flow that must occur elsewhere). Truly representative estimates of global or hemispheric average temperature must therefore average temperature changes over a sufficiently large number of distinct regions to average out such offsetting regional changes. The specification of a warm period, therefore requires that warm anomalies in different regions should be truly synchronous and not merely required to occur within a very broad interval in time, such as AD 800-1300 (as in Soon et al, 2003; Soon and Baliunas, 2003).
MYTH #3: The "Hockey Stick" studies claim that the 20th century on the whole is the warmest period of the past 1000 years.

Milankovitch theory of ice ages
Posted 25 December 2010 - 06:58 PM
Funny thing; the warmists keep telling us that "the science is settled".
So, is "the science settled?". Or is there a large body of empirical data under dispute and a corresponding huge amount of uncertainty?

Met Office
From the Global Warming Policy Foundation: the questions begin, news coverage follows:
Did UK Government Keep Cold Winter Warning Secret In Run-Up To UN Climate Conference?
Press Release
London, 6 January: The Global Warming Policy Foundation has called on the House of Commons Transport Select Committee to set up a parliamentary inquiry into the winter advice the Government received by the Met Office and the renewed failure of both the Government and local authorities to prepare the UK transport system for the third severe winter in a row.
In a letter to the Chair of the Transport Committee, Louise Ellman, MP, the GWPF stresses that Lessons have to be learned well in advance of the start of next years winter so that we are much better prepared if it is severe again.
In recent days, the Met Office has stated that it apparently warned the Cabinet Office in late October that the start of the winter would be exceptionally cold. It would appear that the extreme weather warning was kept secret from the public.
According to media reports, the Cabinet Office has been unwilling to confirm whether or not it failed to pass on the Met Office warning to local and road authorities, airports and water companies.
Not only is the lack of Government preparedness a cause for concern, but we wonder whether there may be another reason for keeping the cold warning under wraps, a motive that the Met Office and the Cabinet Office may have shared: Not to undermine the then forthcoming UN Climate Change Conference in Cancun, said Dr Benny Peiser, the GWPF director.
It will be important to establish whether the Met Office consulted with government officials about their Cancun strategy and what effect this may have had on the handling of the secret cold winter warning.
In light of the renewed failure to prepare the UK and its transport system for a prolonged and harsh winter, the GWPF has listed 19 questions that need to be addressed in order to avoid future debacles.
The full letter is attached below.
Louise Ellman, MP
Chair, Transport Select Committee
House of Commons
5 January 2011
Dear Mrs Ellman
Transport Systems Winter Fiasco
I am writing to you on behalf of the Global Warming Policy Foundation regarding the transport systems ill-preparedness in face of this years record cold winter.
The GWPF is calling on the Transport Committee to set up a parliamentary inquiry into the winter advice the Government received by the Met Office and the renewed failure of both the Government and local authorities to prepare the UK transport system for the third severe winter in a row.
This years winter fiasco has severely damaged the British economy and its international reputation as a result of the countrys ill-preparedness.
It would appear that the Met Office provided the government with contradictory winter advice and we need to find out what went wrong. Lessons have to be learned well in advance of the start of next years winter so that we are much better prepared if it is severe again.
Last summer, the Department of Transport carried out a study of the resilience of Britains transport infrastructure in the light of the two previous severe winters.
When the Quarmby Report (The Resilience of Englands Transport Systems in Winter) was published in late October, it entirely relied on the Met Offices assurance that the chance of a severe winter and heavy snow would be relatively small and that the effect of climate change had further reduced the probability of severe winters in the UK; see also Transport chaos not an annual issue, say official report. Investment in more equipment may not be economical given rarity of British snow, says RAC Foundation chairman http://www.guardian....port-met-office
In recent days, the Met Office has stated that it apparently changed its original advice in October and actually warned the Cabinet Office that the start of winter would be exceptionally cold. It would appear that the Met Offices cold warning was kept secret from the public.
According to media reports, the Cabinet Office has been unwilling to confirm whether or not it failed to pass on the Met Office warning to local and road authorities, airports and water companies.
Not only is the lack of Government preparedness a cause for concern, but we wonder whether there may be another reason for keeping the cold warning under wraps, a motive that the Met Office and the Cabinet Office may have shared: Not to undermine the then forthcoming UN Climate Change Conference in Cancun.
Throughout October and November, the Met Office repeatedly pushed and published their key message in the run-up to the UN climate summit that 2010 would probably turn out to be the hottest year on record, culminating in these Cancun-timed media reports: Cancun climate change summit: 2010 was hottest year on record http://www.telegraph...-on-record.html
The Met Office was represented at the UN Climate Summit in Cancun by key scientists who briefed news media about their key message; see Scientific evidence is Met Office focus at Cancun <http://www.metoffice...20101126b.html>
It will be important to establish whether the Met Office consulted with government officials about the UKs Cancun strategy and what effect this may have had on the handling of the secret cold winter warning.
The transport minister Philip Hammond has asked the governments chief scientific adviser whether the last three cold winters may signal a step change in weather in the UK.
The Met Office appears to deny this possibility. In its submission to the Quarmby Report, the Met Office claims that the chances of a harsh winter are receding steadily. Yet, the Met Office models were contradicted by Sir David King, the former governments chief scientific adviser, who has publicly warned that the government should plan for more cold winters in the next few years.
It is evident that Sir David King has serious doubts about the reliability of the Met Offices computer models. This manifest contradiction is further undermining the credibility of the Met Office which makes it all the more important to properly investigate the underlying problem of its erroneous winter projections and government advice over the last three years.
In light of the renewed failure to prepare the UK and its transport system for a prolonged and harsh winter, the following questions need to be addressed in order to avoid future debacles:
1. Why did the Met Office publish on its website estimates in late October showing a 60 per cent to 80 per cent chance of warmer-than-average temperatures this winter? What was the scientific basis of this probabilistic estimate?
2. Why did the Met Office provide the government with a secret forecast about a exceptionally cold start of the winter, at the same time it was publishing an opposite forecast to the public?
3. Did the government conspire to keep the Met Office forecast secret in the run-up to the Cancun climate summit?
4. Did the Cabinet Office fail to take appropriate action in response to the forecast and inform the relevant authorities to prepare the country, to keep the highways clear, to prepare airports?
5. Why did the government let its Winter Fuel Allowance budget be used up with only a fraction of the winter gone?
6. On what scientific basis did the Met Office tell the Cabinet Office that there were early indications of an exceptionally cold start to winter?
7. Why did the Met Office confirm to the news media on 27 October that its probability map showed significant warming in the months ahead?
8. Has the late October prediction by the Met Office that this winter would be mild affected planning for this winter? If so, what is the best estimate of how much this has cost the country?
9. In 2009, the Met Office predicted a 65% chance that the winter of 2009/10 would be milder than normal. Has the Met Office subsequently explained what went wrong with its computer modelling?
10. What is the statistical and scientific basis for the Met Offices estimate of a 1-in-20 chance of a severe winter?
11. Has the Met Office changed its view, or its calculations, following the harsh winters of 2008, 2009 and 2010?
12. Is the Met Office right to be confident that the severe winters of the last three years are not related?
13. Which severe weather alerts were issued by the Met Office and when?
14. Although the Met Office stopped sending its 3-month forecasts to the media, it would appear that this service is still available to paying customers, the Government and Local Authorities for winter planning. What was their advice, in September/October, for the start of winter 2010?
15. Has the Met Office been the subject of any complaints from its paying customers regarding the quality of its advice?
16. Is it appropriate that the chairman of the Met Office is a member, or a former member of climate pressure groups or carbon trading groups?
17. Should senior Met Office staff (technically employed by the MoD) make public comments advocating political action they see necessary to tackle climate change?
18. Has the government evaluated different meteorological service providers and has it ensured that it is using the most accurate forecaster?
19. What plans has the government to privatise the Met Office?
In view of the high level of public interest in this matter, we shall be releasing the text of this letter to the press.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Yours sincerely,
Dr Benny Peiser

Dec. 12, 2001
STOCKTON, Calif. - The Santa Clara University women's basketball team defeated Pacific 70-61 in non-conference action tonight at the Spanos Center. The victory was the third straight for the Broncos (6-2) over the Tigers (3-4) and the eighth in the last 10 games of the series.
Santa Clara had three players reach double figures, led by junior Tammy Annas' 16 points. Senior guard Becki Ashbaugh and freshman forward Kim Butler added 11 each. SCU was led defensively by Butler's seven boards.
Although both teams combined for 24 turnovers in the first half, it was the Broncos that led by 17 at intermission, with a 40-23 advantage after freshman guard Quinn Thomas nailed a three-pointer from the far side with 1.3 seconds left in the period. Santa Clara opened up an early lead with its inside game, as starting forward Julie Butler was able to score three easy baskets down low before sitting out the half on the bench due to early foul trouble. Junior forward Kendra Rhea and Annas, as well as sister Kim, kept up the pace and added 14 points from the post.
The Broncos continued to fine tune the transition game in the second period, including two lay ups by Annas to put the Broncos up by 21 less than five minutes into the second half. A modest 7-0 Tiger run midway through the period reduced the Bronco edge to 15 and another UOP run at the end of the game provided the final score.
Sophomore forward Jennie Rondel sprained her left ankle at the 1:16 mark in the first half and did not return to the game. On a fast break, her leg seemed to buckle under as she settled for the lay in. It is the same leg that Rondel had ACL reconstructive surgery on in May. She finished with six points.
Pacific was led by Selena Ho's 17 points while Tiger Gillian d'Hondt grabbed a team-high seven rebounds.
The Broncos remain on the road for another contest against a regional opponent. Santa Clara will play at Fresno State on Saturday. The game is slated to begin at 4 p.m. in the North Gym.

What were the odds of Cory Higgins finishing his CU men's basketball career tied with Richard Roby (2004-08) atop the school charts at 2,001 points?
They had to be astronomical. I know I have never seen another school with co-leaders in career scoring.
Nothing against Roby, but I'm sure most were pulling for Higgins to claim the top spot to himself because this was new and fresh, and it's always fun to see records broken. And to think that another basket by Higgins would have beaten Alabama and sent CU into the NIT championship game.
Roby and Higgins overlapped one season, playing together in 2007-08, when Roby, a 6-6 guard, was a senior and the 6-5 Higgins was getting his feet wet as a freshman.
Higgins told me countless times that he respected Roby for helping him "learn the ropes" of the college game.
"I saw how he handled himself that year, with the team and with the media as the leader," Higgins told me recently.
Higgins became the team spokesman beginning in his sophomore season.
And certainly not to be overlooked or forgotten is Brittany Spears completing her eligibility this season as the CU women's all-time leading scorer with 2,185 points.
It was a privilege to cover them for the past four seasons.

- 1. County and State Party Candidates Should Not Seek Endorsements from Politicians
by Maricopa County Republican Committee Chairman Tyler Bowyer
Many have seen in recent weeks a few endorsements from Public Office Holders of Candidates for those who wish to serve in County and State Party positions. I want to make a statement and say this is absolutely wrong. One of the primary reasons that the Republican Party exists is to hold Elected Officials accountable. Having our Party Officeholders beholden to Elected Officials through endorsements and donations is precisely what's wrong with the GOP today. It should raise many red flags of Party Candidates who seek these endorsements as it is akin to the adage of the "Fox in the Henhouse." This is terrible judgment both on the part of the candidate and the elected official.Click here to read more
- 3. You never need a late term abortion to save a woman's life
In the 3rd and final presidential debate, Hillary Clinton was asked why she is against a ban on late-term partial birth abortions. In light of her longstanding association with Planned Parenthood and the abortion business, her answer reveals an astonishing ignorance about the actual process involved in a late term abortion, or she's outright lying.
In this brief segment Ms. Clinton states "I've met with women who at the end of their pregnancy get the worst news that one could get, that their health is in jeopardy if they continue to carry to term or that something terrible has happened or just been discovered about the pregnancy. So, you can regulate if you are doing so with the life and the health of the mother taken into account."
Here's the reality. A late term abortion procedure takes 24-72 hours, just to dilate the cervix enough to dismember and remove the baby. A woman whose life is at risk would be dead before the abortion could be completed.
On the other hand, a 1-hour emergency C-Section would most likely save the mother's and her baby's lives.
In the following video, Dr. Anthony Levatino, who has performed over 1200 abortions, explains why "You never need a late term abortion to save a woman's life." He is now Pro-Life.Click here to read more
- 4. Hillary Clinton: Ghoulish Abortion Queen
For years, Hillary Clinton has encouraged women to collude with and pay doctors to murder their own unborn children. In 2009, Planned Parenthood, the nation's largest abortion corporation, presented U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton with the Margaret Sanger Award. In 2014, Planned Parenthood honored Clinton for her "commitment to womens health."
The sick irony is that Margaret Sanger, a noted eugenicist and horrible racist, deplored abortion. She never would have called it "womens health." She would be horrified to know that monsters like Hillary Clinton are presented with an award in her name. Planned Parenthood didn't begin providing abortions until after Margaret Sanger was dead. She would not have tolerated what Planned Parenthood has become: an abortion empire responsible for stopping the beating hearts of over 7 million innocent, helpless lives.
Sanger opened the first birth control center in 1916. She later founded the American Birth Control League, which evolved into today's Planned Parenthood Federation of America. Sanger spoke out repeatedly on preventing pregnancy, not abortion.Click here to read more
- 5. Rigging the Election - Video I: Clinton Campaign and DNC Incite Violence at Trump Rallies
Go to 10:20 to hear Zulema Rodriguez brag about shutting down the highway leading to the FOUNTAIN HILLS, ARIZONA Trump rally. Luke Johnson was on his way to church nearby and within seconds, he was caught, unable to move his work truck and trailer. A huge group of people ran into the road, and he couldn't get across. He had no idea what was going on. Then, he started getting dozens of calls threatening his life. "People saying they were going to hunt my business down and find me and come after me and destroy my business." It turns out people had seen his work trailer live on CNN and assumed he was part of the protest even though he wasn't.
Rodriguez also admits to inciting violence in Chicago, forcing Trump to cancel it for fear that people might get hurt. Thanks Project Veritas (James O'Keefe), doing the job the media refuses to do.Click here to read more
- 6. Jim O'Connor Announces Run for State Party Chairman of the AZGOP
I have tremendous respect for Jim O'Connor. In the following press release, you will read about Jim's role in renouncing the National Popular Vote. I was one of the people he patiently educated regarding its problems. Ultimately, a group of us were able to convince our Senator, Sylvia Allen, to back away from supporting it. Jim is true to the Republican platform and has provided leadership in other areas as well, including the passage of HB2088, which protects students against surveys that gather private, personally identifiable information. He advised his representative in LD23, Heather Carter, "Our 444 Precinct Committeemen are reflecting the opinions of the 70,000 registered republican votes in our district overwhelmingly protecting the rights of parents and children. Please represent these and other republicans who desire to restrain government overreach." She voted in favor on reconsideration. Mr. O'Connor has stood firmly in support of legislation that honors parental authority and rejects federal control of education in Arizona.

- 7. Has YOUR Legislator been Endorsed by Pro Common Core, Anti-Parent "Stand for Children"?
Stand for Children/Arizona has just endorsed 26 candidates for the Arizona Legislature in the Primary Election on August 30. "Stand for Children Arizona does not take its endorsement process lightly. These candidates have been fully vetted to make sure they currently agree with, and will stay true to a majority of Stand's policies and educational priorities that we believe will bring the quickest results."
A review of Stand for Children/Arizona's website indicates that this group proudly supports the entire Common Core agenda, aka Arizona's College and Career Ready Standards, including AzMerit.
Stand is proud to have defeated a litany of anti-Common Core legislation, as well as other bills that parents have fought for, including the defeated SB1455. This bill would have acknowledged that parents know more than the State about what's best for their own children. These parents wanted to opt their children out of the unvalidated, secretive AzMerit. Stand would have none of it. See "Top Legislative Results."
Parents and their children suffered verbal and emotional abuse at the hands of school administrators, teachers, other parents, and other students for daring to opt out of AZMerit. Remember? See Sen. Allen calls for schools to respect parents over assessment concerns, The Schools' War On Arizona's Children: Part 1, The Schools' War on Arizona's Children: Part 2 Online Charter Schools The Schools' War on Arizona's Children: Part 3 Emotional Child Abuse.

- 9. Outing Ray Strauss, the Phony Conservative Running Against Rep. Paul Gosar in AZ-4
Did you receive the FALSE flyer paid for by Right Way Super-PAC stating that Paul Gosar (CD4) voted against funding for our military and their families? I suggest you read this article titled Outing Ray Strauss, the Phony Conservative Running Against Rep. Paul Gosar in AZ-4. In my own experience, Rep. Gosar is one of the most Conservative, Constitutional, pro-military representatives in Congress. Ray Strauss is the opposite. "Rep. Gosar's reputation as a fighter for the conservative agenda has left him as one of the few reliable full spectrum conservatives in the House."
The article begins:
It requires a breathtaking level of deceit to attempt to run to the right of limited government constitutional conservative Congressman Paul Gosar and attack him as an "insider."
But with the help of a shadowy lobbyist-funded PAC – Right Way PAC – which was founded by K Street insider Daniel Flynn, that is exactly what Gosar's challenger Ray Strauss is trying to do.

- 10. Itasca Small for Arizona Senate (LD25): DEFEAT Bob Worsley!
Itasca Small is an official write-in candidate running against Bob Worsley in LD25. Ms. Small is a long-time supporter and activist for Arizona's sovereign rights, local control over education, and stopping the Common Core machine. She is pro-Bill of Rights, Parental Rights, and Individual Liberty. She is against the misuse of tax dollars, including subsidizing corporate welfare and taxpayer-paid entitlement programs, such as ObamaCare (Medicaid Expansion). Her campaign slogan is "Liberty Begins in our Own Backyard! SMALL for small government!"
Itasca is not a passive observer of the Arizona Legislature; rather, she has spent hundreds of hours at our State Capitol as a citizen lobbyist, defending both our U.S. Constitution and Arizona Constitution, and.educating legislators on the proper role of government.
I have known and worked with Ms. Small on many occasions. She is unapologetically passionate about her convictions. Yet, she is always open, respectful, and gracious when responding to differing views. Her humility is refreshing. See her article titled Arizona Standards Committee Working on a Faulty Premise.
States Ms. Small, "I am not a natural speaker. But God gives me the words, and, in spite of my aversion to public speaking, live audiences are usually inspired by my message. I'm thankful that God helps me to do as well as I do."
If you want a candidate who will be faithful to her Oath of Office, please write in Itasca Small for Arizona Senate (LD25).
In this short video clip from a meeting in November, 2015, she spontaneously and passionately speaks to some issues relating to Common Core.Click here to read more

- Australian Grand Prix - Qualifying
Hamilton admits to fortune after spin
- Race:
- Australian Grand Prix
- Drivers:
- Lewis Hamilton
- Teams:
- Mercedes
Lewis Hamilton admitted he was fortunate to survive a spin during Q1 before qualifying for the Australian Grand Prix was postponed.
Q2 and Q3 will take place on Sunday morning after heavy rain forced the stewards to postpone the session. However, Hamilton almost didn't make it through after spinning early in the first session and hitting the wall at turn two but not sustaining damage. It took Hamilton a long time to be able to get the car moving again but after admitting his fortune he said the incident wouldn't affect him.
"It was pretty straightforward really, I just lost the back end and was in the wall," Hamilton said. "Fortunately I got going again - I was beached actually, I was stuck and luckily I put it in reverse and reversed half way up the bloody track! I can dust those kind of things off and keep looking forward to tomorrow."
With qualifying and the race taking place on the same day, Hamilton said he actually thinks it will help him be as sharp as possible for the race in the afternoon.
"I don't think it compromises the race, if anything it's better because you get a bit of a warm-up. Your body should be more energised and ready for the race so it should be interesting but I really hope it's a dry day because today has been incredibly difficult for everyone.
"It's incredibly tricky, probably one of the slipperiest circuits that I've raced on in the rain, simply because there's a lot of white lines everywhere that are painted black. So as soon as you hit those the car slides and aquaplanes and oversteers so that's why you saw so many people going off."

Want to restore your backup to a different site? There's a guide for that!
Restore your WordPress site in one click
- Sign in to the VaultPress Dashboard and view the Backups section for your site. Find the backup you want to use, and click Restore.
- Select which items you want to restore. You can restore your database, plugins, themes, and uploads. Click Prepare Backup, and VaultPress will get your backup ready.
- When your backup is ready, VaultPress will ask you to confirm the restore. (You can even restore your backup to a different site.)
- That's it! When your restore is completed, you'll see a message like the one below. Check out your site to make sure the restore went as planned, and drop us a line if you have any questions.
The Restore Process in Detail
VaultPress doesn't just write your backup to your database—there's more to it than that. Here's an outline of the process:
- VaultPress collects the data from your backup and prepares it for the restore.
- Before continuing, VaultPress removes any existing restore tables from your database. These may exist if you've run a restore before.
- Once you confirm the restore, VaultPress creates the tables from your backup, using a temporary prefix with the backup ID. For example, when restoring Backup ID 123456, the prefix would be "vp_123456_". Once all of the tables have been created, VaultPress begins to insert your backup's data.
- After the data is successfully transferred, VaultPress renames your existing tables with the prefix "vp_backup_" and removes the temporary prefix from the newly restored tables.
- Once the transfer and renaming is complete, VaultPress presents the success message.
- Need help? The VaultPress Safekeepers are available if you have questions. Just click on the Ask for Help button in your dashboard.

As part of the ongoing effort to make Jalopnik (and all the other sites in the Kinja universe) more navigable and easier to use we're introducing a more cohesive "global navigation" that's launching first here as a test to make sure it actually works.
There's a full explanation here of what issues we were hoping to address with this, as well as the long list of improvements this brings, but for the most part it's an iterative change aimed at making the site operate less randomly and more like you'd expect (as opposed to the massive, earth-shattering design changes you used to love so much).

Much like the original production of Sunday in the Park with George or that amazing flamenco interpretation of John Singer Sargent's El Jaleo, I was very excited to see Russell Maliphant's physical exploration of the work of the artist Auguste Rodin. Unfortunately, I felt his interpretation lacked direction and cohesion.
The opening scene revealed a large Pina Bausch-esque set of various elevations draped in white as well as four white drapes hanging vertically downstage. The six dancers (three male, three female), were also draped in white as they let the warm lighting pour over them through their sculpture-esque poses. Each bone, muscle, and piece of flesh was revealed as they elegantly maneuvered to the dissonant score by Alexander Zekke.
My favorite part of the entire evening occurred in the first scene as the women wrapped themselves in the drapes, acting as the muses and counter balance to the men. Unfortunately, the women's role throughout the rest of the piece was held in the background and occasionally in the nude.
That is due to the fact that the men were the powerhouses with the parkour meets capoiera choreography that dominated the rest of the evening. It was beautiful and exciting but it just didn't work as an evening length piece.
Act I had all the draping and fluidity that worked within the group dancing, trios, duos, and solos while Act II revealed a bare set, casual costumes, and disjointed choreography. A fine change, but the connection to Rodin was lost – even with the allusions to his studio practice. How does it connect to this contemporary choreography? And how can it be executed without feeling like "Voguing?" I understand the sense of exploration of movement in the vein of Rodin but what is the goal of the "Project?"
Yes, the dancers have an otherwordly quality with their strength, flexibility, and speed, and the choreography pushes the boundary of contemporary hip hop, but I missed the larger meaning of the piece. Why is Rodin so important to contemporary art?
All in all, the concept is amazing but the piece falls flat.

Court allows Wisconsin's union law to take effect
By SCOTT BAUER, Associated Press
MADISON, Wis. (AP) - The Wisconsin Supreme Court handed Republican Gov. Scott Walker a major victory on Tuesday, ruling that a polarizing union law could take effect that strips most public employees of their collective bargaining rights.
In a 4-3 decision, the court ruled that Dane County Circuit Judge Maryann Sumi overstepped her authority when she said Republican lawmakers violated the state's open meetings statutes in the run-up to passage of the legislation and declared the law void.
The law, which also requires public employees to pay more for their health care and pensions, sparked weeks of protests when Walker introduced it in February.
Tens of thousands of demonstrators occupied the state Capitol for weeks and Democratic senators fled the state to prevent a vote, thrusting Wisconsin to the forefront of a national debate over labor rights.
In a one-sentence reaction to the ruling, the governor said: "The Supreme Court's ruling provides our state the opportunity to move forward together and focus on getting Wisconsin working again."
Walker has claimed that the law was needed to help address the state's $3.6 billion budget shortfall and give local governments enough flexibility on labor costs to deal with deep cuts to state aid. Democrats saw it as an attack on public employee unions, which usually back their party's candidates.
The Supreme Court's ruling will likely be the precursor to an avalanche of lawsuits and legal challenges that couldn't be brought until the law took effect.
The decision came just hours before the Wisconsin Assembly was expected to begin debating the state budget. Had the ruling not come down, Republicans planned to put the collective bargaining provisions into the budget so the changes could take effect during the court fight.
GOP legislative leaders, Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald and Assembly Speaker Jeff Fitzgerald, issued a joint statement saying they always believed the bill was legally approved.
"We followed the law when the bill was passed, simple as that," the brothers said in a statement. "We're finally headed in the right direction by balancing the budget and focusing on jobs, just like Republicans promised we would do."
Democratic Dane County District Attorney Ismael Ozanne, who filed the lawsuit after Republicans pushed through the legislation, was disappointed.
"We've done the best we can," he said. "It looks like we've lost."
Democratic state senators fled to Illinois in February to try to prevent a vote on the measure, but Republicans got around the maneuver by convening a special committee to remove fiscal elements from the bill and allow a Senate vote with fewer members present. Walker signed the plan into law two days later.
Ozanne filed his lawsuit the next week claiming Republicans didn't provide the proper public notice of the meeting in violation of state law.
Sumi, the judge who initially heard Ozanne's lawsuit, first issued a temporary order blocking publication of the collective bargaining law while she weighed his arguments and then last month declared the law void.
Attorneys for the state Department of Justice, representing the Republicans who control the Legislature, asked the Wisconsin Supreme Court to take the case directly, in part to speed the process. Walker counted on the law being in effect in the budget he put forward for the fiscal year that starts July 1.
In vacating Sumi's ruling, the Supreme Court said she had "usurped the legislative power which the Wisconsin Constitution grants exclusively to the legislature."
The Supreme Court said the lower court exceeded its jurisdiction and was wrong to block implementation of the law. The court also rejected arguments that Republicans violated the state open meetings law.
"The doors of the Senate and Assembly were kept open to the press and members of the public," the Supreme Court said. "Access was not denied."
In a blistering dissent, Supreme Court Chief Justice Shirley Abrahamson wrote that the majority decision was "hastily" reached and has unsupported conclusions. She said a concurring opinion written by Justice David Prosser, a former Republican speaker of the Assembly, was "long on rhetoric and long on story-telling that appears to have a partisan slant."
Abrahamson said the majority "set forth their own version of facts without evidence. They should not engage in this disinformation."

Tukaiz WGN Relationship
It all started back in 1993 when the Defino family, owners of Tukaiz sent an original Christmas song called "Merry Christmas to the Family" to Spike O'Dell delivered on a CD. The song was written and recorded as a Christmas gift to the Defino parents. Back then, burning music to CD's was just getting noticed and was hardly being done. Spike loved the song so much that he played it frequently during the holiday seasons. From then on, a great friendship and partnership between WGN and the Defino family was born. Tukaiz and WGN worked together on many projects throughout the years including the development of Spike O'Dell's webpage back in 1995. Next, it was the WGN Radio main website in 1997 and again revised in 2006. Soon thereafter, Tukaiz was asked to write the theme songs for the Chicago Cubs played at the beginning of all games broadcast on the radio.

PixyMe's fast rise in popularity to the Top 100 Paid Social Networking Apps stems from the fact it is unlike any other postcard messaging application on the market today. PixyMe connects you with family, friends, or other social networks by artistically placing the recipient's name into an image to appear as if it was photographed that way, such as the name spelled out across the horizon over a lake at sunset or written on the snowy windshield of a car. The power of PixyMe is its one-of-kind creative approach to picture personalization that is designed to elicit emotion and smiles

Conversations Is a Sculptural Playground That Invites Kids to Play & Chat
In the city of Roissy-en-France, Olivier Vadrot designed a sculptural playground that encourages children to play and chat with each other. Conversations comprises three structures ? the Trône ventriloque (Ventriloquist throne), the Cockpit rose (Pink cockpit), and the Conseil des sièges (Seats council) ? that fall somewhere between sculptures and functional objects.
The Conseil des sièges is a circular piece featuring 10 stools situated around a pretend fire where kids can exchange stories or play with each other.
Cockpit rose, the pinkish cone-shaped piece, is made from sandstone that originated in France's Vosges region and it has four holes that let the children communicate with each other.
The grey Trône ventriloque, made from volcanic stone that came from the Auvergne region of France, has two seats on either side with a hole in the backrest allowing children to share secrets.
