Amateur Sport
Oral Questions
3 p.m.
Port Moody—Westwood—Port Coquitlam
James Moore Minister of Canadian Heritage and Official Languages
Mr. Speaker, I certainly join with my colleague in the good news that Sidney Crosby will return to the ice tonight. He was a great star for Canada at the Olympics and is a role model for Canadians on how to behave in sport.
I agree with my colleague and his persistent efforts on this subject. Our government has taken action. The Minister of State for Sport and the Prime Minister have been involved on this file to ensure that we work with amateur sport organizations, not against them, to ensure we can move forward and have strategies that make sense for individual sports. Lacrosse has a different universe of head injuries, so do football and hockey. They all have their own science and we need to ensure that the sports are safe for our kids to play.
Oral Questions
3 p.m.
Peter Goldring Edmonton East, AB
Mr. Speaker, on Friday, members of the International Atomic Energy Agency, including Canada, spoke with one voice on Iran's nuclear program. Even traditional allies of Iran voted for a resolution that holds the Iranian regime to account for again failing to live up to its international obligations.
Could the government House leader please update us on this situation?
Oral Questions
3 p.m.
Peter Van Loan Leader of the Government in the House of Commons
Mr. Speaker, we welcome the International Atomic Energy Agency resolution but, frankly, we wish it had gone further. That is why Canada is working together with like-minded countries and is today expanding sanctions against Iran.
Canada is working together with like-minded countries and is today expanding sanctions against Iran.
The sanctions cover the known leadership of the Iranian revolutionary guard and block virtually all transactions with Iran, including those with the central bank.
The regime in Iran poses a significant threat to regional and global peace. We will do what it takes to isolate the regime and to minimize the risk that it poses to global peace.
Child Poverty
Oral Questions
November 21st, 2011 / 3 p.m.
Jean Crowder Nanaimo—Cowichan, BC
Mr. Speaker, yesterday was Universal Children's Day but Canadians have little reason to celebrate with one of the worst child poverty rates in the G20.
While the government claims to be supporting families, one in ten Canadian children live in poverty. The government's callous response is "just get a job".
The Conservatives just do not get it. Many have jobs, low paying, part-time jobs.
Why is the government refusing to help fight child poverty? Why has there been no action on creating the jobs that these families need?
Child Poverty
Oral Questions
3 p.m.
Diane Finley Minister of Human Resources and Skills Development
Mr. Speaker, the real question is why the NDP has voted against every initiative we have to help families get back to work and look after their children.
Those members voted against the universal child care benefit. They voted against an increase in the national child benefit. They also voted against the WITB, the working income tax benefit, that is there to help families get over the welfare wall and encourage them to get back to work.
Why is it that the NDP will not help workers work?
Oral Questions
3 p.m.
Jean-François Fortin Haute-Gaspésie—La Mitis—Matane—Matapédia, QC
Mr. Speaker, unhappy that Quebec is opposed to their justice bill, the Conservatives are turning to blind partisanship. Senator Boisvenu, an unelected representative, is doing the dirty work.
For a week now, he has been attacking the credibility of the Barreau du Québec, questioning the competence of minister Jean-Marc Fournier and ridiculing unanimous decisions by Quebec's National Assembly.
My question is simple, and I hope to receive a very clear answer. Does the Minister of Justice approve of the inappropriate attacks being made by the unelected senator or does he condemn the derogatory comments?
Oral Questions
3 p.m.
Niagara Falls
Rob Nicholson Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada
Mr. Speaker, we have been very consistent. The bill that is before Parliament has been here in some cases for four years. It specifically targets those individuals in the business of trafficking in drugs and those individuals who would sexually exploit children.
Canadians from coast to coast gave us a mandate and we are following through on that mandate. I am very proud of our stand in that area.
Presence in Gallery

Canadian Autism Day Act
Routine Proceedings
3:05 p.m.
Don Davies Vancouver Kingsway, BC
moved for leave to introduce Bill C-351, An Act respecting a Canadian Autism Day.
Mr. Speaker, I rise today to introduce a bill respecting a national autism day. I am proud to introduce legislation that would recognize the work and struggles of those with autism. It also would recognize the challenges faced by friends and families of people with this condition, in particular, parents who raise an autistic child and all of the special people who work with and advocate for them. It is right and overdue to mark and appreciate these challenges.
So much about autism remains to be discovered and I know many in the House have called for additional funding for research, support and coverage under the Canada Health Act. I repeat these calls today. The creation of a national autism day would bring light and attention to those who fall in the autism spectrum and to those who tirelessly support a family member or friend with autism. This is a positive step we can take today. National attention and focus are important first steps to ensuring that all affected by autism have the support they need.
I ask that all members of the House support the bill.
(Motions deemed adopted, bill read the first time and printed)
National Office for Fire and Emergency Response Statistics Act
Routine Proceedings
3:05 p.m.
Don Davies Vancouver Kingsway, BC
moved for leave to introduce Bill C-352, An Act to amend the Statistics Act (National Office for Fire and Emergency Response Statistics).
Mr. Speaker, I rise to introduce a bill that would create a national office for fire and emergency response statistics. This office would build a database to compile fire and emergency response statistics from across Canada. These statistics would be a valuable and much needed source of information that would help our firefighters and policy-makers analyze data to keep our communities safer.
Recently I met with representatives of the firefighting and emergency response community. They told me that Canada did not track fire statistics and that it was missing an important tool to help them do their jobs, keeping Canadians and firefighters safe.
Our first responders are asking us to keep comprehensive information on fire damage, fire deaths and emergency response times so they can better serve our communities.
There are many other things that the government could be doing to support our firefighters. We should implement a public safety officer compensation benefit for the families of fallen police and firefighters. We should include firefighter safety considerations in the national building code and we should expand our fire database to eventually include comprehensive information on all aspects of firefighting that could be shared across the country.
The bill is one important component of what firefighters have been asking for. I urge all members of the House to join with me in supporting our firefighters and give firefighters access to the information they need to keep us all safe.
(Motions deemed adopted, bill read the first time and printed)
Excise Tax Act
Routine Proceedings
3:10 p.m.
Don Davies Vancouver Kingsway, BC
moved for leave to introduce Bill C-353, An Act to amend the Excise Tax Act and the Income Tax Act (extra-energy-efficient products).
Mr. Speaker, I rise to introduce a bill inspired by a young person in my riding, Hansel Fung. He, like many young people, is concerned about our excessive use of energy. This bill proposes a system of tax incentives to encourage Canadian families to lower their energy consumption.
Specifically, the bill would provide financial incentives for individual families to lower their carbon footprint by reducing their energy consumption and use. It would create an HST exemption to lower the price of household appliances deemed by regulation to be extra energy efficient.
The existing Energy Star program helps consumers make informed choices by highlighting energy efficient products, but this bill would go one step further by exempting such products from the HST. Families would be rewarded for making green choices when they purchase low-energy household appliances and products such as compact fluorescent light bulbs. This bill would also create a tax credit to be claimed at the end of the year that would allow families to deduct 10% of the cost of the purchase of low-energy appliances.
I hope all of my colleagues will join with me in supporting this bill, which will encourage a greener future for Canada and a better world.
(Motions deemed adopted, bill read the first time and printed)
Routine Proceedings
3:10 p.m.
Jean Crowder Nanaimo—Cowichan, BC
Mr. Speaker, I have three petitions to present. The first petition is about Bill C-233, An Act to eliminate poverty in Canada.
In this petition, the undersigned indicate that poverty affects over 10% of Canadians and disproportionately affects aboriginal peoples, recent immigrants, people with disabilities, youth, women and children. Poverty leads to poor health such that individuals suffering from poverty suffer more health problems and have lower life expectancies.
There are a number of other items that they outline in the petition. They indicate that a majority of provincial and territorial governments have adopted poverty reduction strategies, but that they are limited in that they are unable to reduce poverty in their jurisdictions without support from the federal government.
They are calling on the House to ensure swift passage of Bill C-233, An Act to eliminate poverty in Canada.

Senate should follow House on tax bill
The Minnesota House quickly passed a major tax bill on Thursday, one that would provide real relief to Minnesota taxpayers as early as this year.
The bill, which Gov. Mark Dayton said he hopes to sign by March 14, does two major things. First, it would repeal the onerous business-to-business sales taxes that were passed last year, the anti-job taxes that everyone has been agreeing need to be repealed. This should be a no-brainer for the Legislature.
Second, the bill would make Minnesota tax law conform with the federal tax law. This would greatly simplify the task of filing state taxes, and would provide tax breaks for married couples, for working families, for child care and student loan expenses.
The bill would provide about $616 million in tax relief.
The bill now goes to the Senate, where the DFL leaders are interested in putting more of the state's surplus into the state's reserve fund and the interest in moving quickly seems to be less avid than in the House.
This is legislation that will undo some bad legislation from last year, and will put money in the pockets of families and middle class taxpayers. Citizens should urge the state's senators to move quickly in passing this legislation.

Osteosarcoma is the most common type of malignant bone tumor in dogs, and this form of cancer is something that every dog owner should be aware of. Those who suspect their dog has osteosarcoma should be sure to visit a veterinary hospital right away, as it is a life-threatening condition.
The most common clinical sign of osteosarcoma in dogs is limping or lameness in a limb, without any known injury or trauma to that body part. The condition may also lead to bones that break very easily, even as the dog is simply going about their normal activities.
According to VCA Animal Hospitals, some dogs are at greater risk than others for the disease. Larger breeds such as Rottweilers, Labradors, Golden Retrievers, Dobermans, St. Bernards and Great Danes all have high risk of osteosarcoma. In fact, VCA reports that dogs over 80 pounds are sixty times more likely to get the cancer than those under 75 pounds. While owners of big dogs should be aware of this cancer, it is diagnosed in smaller dogs as well.
Osteosarcoma is a painful and often fatal disease for dogs. It is a type of cancer that can quickly spread to other parts of the body if not treated early. Depending on where the tumor is located, the veterinarian may recommend cancer treatments, such as limb amputation and possibly chemotherapy as possible ways to manage the disease.

"The Expendables 2" shoots its way into theaters this weekend featuring, well, all of the action stars of the '80s and '90s, so we're counting down our favorites.
10. Chuck Norris
When Chuck Norris finds out how low he ranks on our list, he'll make 10 the top number in a Top 10 list.
9. Uma Thurman
Yes, her action resumé is pretty much just the two "Kill Bill" movies, but she had more kick-ass fight scenes and quotable lines than many of her dude counterparts have had over their whole careers.
8. Wesley Snipes
Snipes had a nice run of action flicks in the early '90s — he was particularly awesome squaring off against Sylvester Stallone in "Demolition Man"— and the first two "Blade" movies are underrated superhero movies.
7. Patrick Swayze
Ladies may love him as Johnny Castle in "Dirty Dancing," but guys will always think of Swayze as Dalton, the man who rips out throats. Swayze was also involved in the second-greatest action movie chase scene ever, in "Point Break."
6. Jean-Claude Van Damme
Van Damme may not be a very good actor, but "Bloodsport" and "Kickboxer" are two of the best action movies of all time. So good in fact, they almost make up for "Double Team" — yes, that's the Dennis Rodman one — and "Street Fighter."
5. Steven Seagal
His Wikipedia entry begins "Steven Frederic Seagal is an American action film star, producer, writer, martial artist, guitarist and reserve deputy sheriff." They forgot to mention that he also has his own energy drink called "Steven Seagal's Lightning Bolt"!
4. Bruce Willis
He got a jump start on this list by being in the single greatest action movie of all time — it's "Die Hard," don't argue with us. He's better at wise-cracking than ass-kicking, and that's fine with us.
3. Charles Bronson
Charles Bronson is best known for the awesome — at least the first two — "Death Wish" franchise, but he also starred in a number of excellent hard-boiled action movies in the '70s. Bonus points for being Quentin Tarantino's favorite action star.
2. Sylvester Stallone
Stallone became an action star with the "Rambo" movies, and parlayed it into a string of popular action flicks in the '80s and early '90s like "Cobra," "Tango & Cash," "Demolition Man" and the underrated "Cop Land."
1. Arnold Schwarzenegger
The bodybuilder-turned-actor had that funny, thick Austrian accent that most thought would prevent him from become a star in the U.S. Dozens of movies and hundreds of sweet one-liners later, Arnold stands comfortably atop this crowd.

My son loves it!

About Me Education Oriented, Stay At Home Parent
Comments about Learning Resources Sum Swamp™ Addition & Subtraction Game:
My almost 5 year old plays this game at least 3-5 times a day. He plays with myself, my husband, and even will play by himself. When we first got the game, we used his fingers, and our fingers to show him how to add and subtract, but didn't talk at all about the evens and odds stones. Now that he's comfortable with the addition and subtraction, and is starting to know some of the answers without having to count, we've introduced evens and odds to him. He doesn't even know he's learning!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

About Me Educator
My Special Education 7th & 8th graders love it! We added some of our own rules, they loved doing this. For example: when you land on a number, you roll only one dice & multiply the number you landed on by the number you rolled. We also keep track of how many times each one wins, comes in second & rolls zero. When you roll zero you have to go back to start.Excellent way for my students to learn their facts while having fun.
Great way to teach and reinforce addition and subtraction!

About Me Parent
This game was gifted to my 5 year old. He loves games, and this was no exception! He took to the bright colors and the fun animals pieces. The game is easy to play and the math concepts he is practicing is embedded into the game play. He doesn't even realize he is "learning" while he is playing. A great game for any child ready to take on some addition and subtraction skills!

Love it!
By Mummyof3
from Manchester
My little boy loves playing this game. He is 4yrs old. We play this nearly everyday after school. It is wonderful for improving his understanding of addition and subtraction, plus understanding odd and even numbers. It is also aiding him from jumping from using his fingers to count on to mental arithmetic. It's fun too! He doesn't realise he is learning as he plays the game as its lots of fun. Have recommended it to lots of friends.

Fun way to practice addition/subtraction
By fixyourpuncturist
from Stockport
Great way of practising basic maths skills without them noticing!
Great game… Even for Pre-School Age!
By Mommy of A, C, and J
from West Melbourne, FL
We started playing this game when my oldest were 3 and 5 years old. The 3 year old really loved learning to add and subtract, and my 5 year old got a lot out of the "even" and "odd". They both really liked the game, and played it both with and without adults (once they got the hang of it). Highly recommend!Once my sister-in-law saw the kids playing this game, she decided to buy this for her 1st grade class to play during their free time too!
Both of my children love this game.

About Me Educator, Parent
I have enjoyed playing this game with both of my children. It has been one of their favorites and has helped them with learning their math facts. My only wish is that replacement dice would be available. The markings on our dice have started to wear off, making the dice hard to read.

fun, fast-paced game
By 3kidsmom
from Mesa, AZ
Purchased for my 1st grader to work on addition/subtraction and this game is perfect! He is more confident of his answers and now helps his 4 year old sisters play. Game plays quickly so you can get in a quick game or play multiple games depending on your time restraints.
Great Game til ink came off dice
By momjam
from nebraska
This great game caught and kept the attention of my children, ages preschool to 1st grade. We've played it a lot, so much that the numbers on the dice wore off. We rewrote the numbers with a permanent marker. Other than that, a must for all children/families using games for learning simple addition and subtraction. When they aren't playing the actual game, the game pieces are great for pretend games: a snake, frog, turtle, and a snail.

Topic: Xcode for developing on a mac?
I was wondering if anyone had any experience developing a Rails project using Xcode. I haven't been able to find much information on it.
It would seem that Xcode, a native Apple application, would be very good on a Mac. Positive and negative comments are greatly appreciated.

The Voyage Out
and and
- Brief Synopsis:
- In The Voyage Out, one of Woolf's wittiest, socially satirical novels, Rachel Vinrace embarks for South America on her father's ship, and is launched on a course of self-discovery in a modern version of the mythic voyage. An introduction, notes, commentary and reading group guide are included.
- Long Synopsis:
- The Modern Library is proud to include Virginia Woolf's first novel, The Voyage Out--together with a new Introduction by Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Michael Cunningham. Published to acclaim in England in 1915 and in America five years later, The Voyage Out marks Woolf's beginning as one of the twentieth century's most brilliant and prolific writers. Less formally experimental than her later novels, The Voyage Out none-theless clearly lays bare the poetic style and innovative technique--with its multiple figures of consciousness, its detailed portraits of characters' inner lives, and its constant shifting between the quotidian and the profound--that are the signature of Woolf's fiction. Rachel Vinrace, Woolf's first heroine, is a motherless young woman who, at twenty-four, embarks on a sea voyage with a party of other English folk to South America. Guileless, and with only a smattering of education, Rachel is taken under the wing of her aunt Helen, who desires to teach Rachel "how to live."Arriving in Santa Marina, a village on the South American coast, Rachel and Helen are introduced to a group of English expatriates. Among them is the young, sensitive Terence Hewet, an aspiring writer, with whom Rachel falls in love. But theirs is ultimately a tale of doomed love, set against a chorus of other stories and other points of view, as the narrative shifts focus between its central and peripheral characters. E. M. Forster praised The Voyage Out as "a book which attains unity as surely as Wuthering Heights, though by a different path." This edition includes a new Introduction by Michael Cunningham, bestselling author of The Hours. Cunningham at once unfolds an engaging short essay of Woolf's early life and career, an insightful exploration of the themes to which Woolf returns again and again in her fiction, and a spirited defense of the relevance and lasting importance of her art. Katherine Anne Porter wrote of Woolf: "The world of arts was her native territory; she ranged freely under her own sky, speaking her mother tongue fearlessly." From the Hardcover edition.

Skip to comments.University of Rhode Island professors retweet: Murder anyone who thinks teachers should be armed
Posted on 12/18/2012 9:52:45 AM PST by Vasilli22
Four days ago, Erik Loomis, an assistant professor of American history at the University of Rhode Island, retweeted the above tweet. In case it disappears down the memory hole, heres a .jpg captured for posterity:.......
(Excerpt) Read more at twitchy.com ...
Erik Loomis, Ph.D., Assistant Professor U.S. environmental history, the Civil War, late 19th and early 20th century America, labor history, and the American West Contact: firstname.lastname@example.com or (401) 874-4078
Found his blog:
Arrest Mr. Loomis.
Well, surprise, surprise! It's a murderous watermelon mad professor.
The red guts of his bloodlust "green" solutions are quite final and just ooze out and slime everyone around him. He's one of the Democrats' "smart" ones.
Obviously Mr. Loomis is mentally unstable.He should not be allowed anywhere near our children, in fact I would say he is precisely the type of person who should be under constant supervision in a mental institution.
It seems to me the Loomis statement could be construed as antisemitic. Is Loomis antisemitic? I have read that all Israeli teachers are armed and well trained in the use of arms to protect the children they teach.
There are PhDs that require extreme intellect and there are PhDs that one can purchase on the back of a cereal box.
Mr (not Dr) Loomis has obviously chosen the latter.
Sorry, Eric, but you just are not very bright. Stick to something within your limited intellect - such as teaching marshmallow topics in a marshmallow department in a university that obviously threw their standards out the window.
Since the prof consents to debate by homicide, I presume he's prepared to lose his argument.
Many in labor support a vigorous fight against climate change. Perhaps they can serve as a bridge to environmental organizations. What must happen is more meaningful dialogue between the UMWA and environmentalists. The UMWAs primary mission is to protect its members jobs. Without coal, what happens to thousands of families in Kentucky, West Virginia, Tennessee, Virginia, and Pennsylvania? Theres no easy answer. But attacking the EPA is not going to bring union jobs back to Appalachia. Demonizing environmentalists only serves to alienate alliances with other progressives the UMWA and other unions need to fight for a better future.
He probably still uses "guns in America" by Michael A. Bellesiles as a source text.
Even better to let his dean and university president know how you feel.
I'm thinking Dr. Seuss is more his debate level.
I do not like that gun I said,
I do not like it cuz I'm red.
Murder them with what weapon?
post the contact info if you have it..
Any teacher who objects to being armed can be give the opportunity to explore the adventures in the welfare office and unemployment agency.
The blood of the Sandy Hook massacre rests on Erik and his ilk who sacrificed these children and adults for the misguided notion that criminalizing self-defense will make us safer.
This nutjob is exactly why people must be armed.
Their kill list is growing by leaps and bounds.
The name is spelled "Loomis", but it's pronounced "Loon".
oops the correct title
Arming America: The Origins of a National Gun Culture
He should be Alinsky'd.
Perfect candidate for it.
What a great example of irony.
Well done Mr. Liberal Professor
Sounds like a threat to public safety. Hope law enforcement can collect him and help him find the help he cleary needs.
He's advocating killing persons who simply hold a certain opinion. Can only imagine the road-rage this guy has in traffic.
In the interest of workplace safety and the security of the children attending his school, suggest his employer carefully consider the risks of having such a person on staff. If nothing else, protection from future liability - when he finally loses it and do go ballistic, it will be on record that he had violent intentions.
Someone needs to ask this dufus where he'd buy the gun he'd use to kill anyone with. Oh, I get it. Only liberals can own guns.
I know liberals who don't believe the government should say you can't own guns. Obviosly this person owns a gun. Because she's all for the government forcing you to buy insurance. I don't even argue with them anymore. They defeat their own arguments if you'll let them talk long enough. That's what the professor just did.
Seriously, this guy should be fired just like the idiot that harrassed the girl at Chic fil A.
Salad tongs, I guess. Since he's anti-gun and all.
Note: Firearms are not even among the top 5 killers of children.
Over 1065(!) are killed EVERY DAY (world-wide) by the following:
Road crashes: They kill 260,000 children a year and injure about 10 million. They are the leading cause of death among 10-19 year olds and a leading cause of child disability.
Drowning: It kills more than 175,000 children a year. Every year, up to 3 million children survive a drowning incident. Due to brain damage in some survivors, non-fatal drowning has the highest average lifetime health and economic impact of any injury type.
Burns: Fire-related burns kill nearly 96,000 children a year and the death rate is 11 times higher in low- and middle-income countries than in high-income countries.
Falls: Nearly 47,000 children fall to their deaths every year, but hundreds of thousands more sustain less serious injuries from a fall.
Poisoning: More than 45,000 children die each year from unintended poisoning.
Good point.

Besides being a dangerous lunatic, the guy is also stupid. Gad!
Irony and hypocrisy collide in a single statement devoid of any reason whatsoever.
Imagine if some professor said "Murder anyone who tries to ban guns". The media would erupt. I encourage everyone to email and CALL the school as many times as you can. I've already called twice.
Excellent point.
Oh, he's a "professor" in liberal dogma. No onder he posts such garbage. But it is amusing to see how low his opinion is of public school teachers.
You can't murder me unless you have a gun....
If you try, I will use MY gun...
Bring it.....
This is why I call them Gun Control Nazis

Re: Erick Loomis
Dear Sir or Madam,
Much has been said about the state of mind of the shooter at the elementary School in Connecticut and what may have provoked him to do such a horrible thing. Many have said he should have been diagnosed as mentally unstable and should not have been allowed in an open society.
I am writing you to say that you have this same type person, Eric Loomis, on your campus and in fact he may be as unstable as the shooter in Connecticut!!
My Loomis recently tweeted @rudepunditt First fucker to say the solution is for elementary school teachers to carry guns needs to be beaten to death. This is exactly the type of language that could cause some unstable person to go out and kill. I believe and hope you would agree that we can have a civil debate on this without the need for inciting violence?
As a member of the NRA and an advocate of teachers being armed, I now fear that my travels which take me on occasion to your fair state may put me at the risk of being harmed because of this type of tweet by Mr. Loomis.
It is my belief that you should immediately have a psychiatric evaluation of Mr. Loomis and provide the public with proof that Mr. Loomis is a stable person capable of teaching in an institution such as yours. Failure to do so and blood could possibly be on your hands because of his tweets.

From related FR thread from yesterday, post 71:
Here's the University President's (Dr. David M. Dooley, Ph.D) phone number...(401) 874-2444 and link to his web page...www.uri.edu/president/
Criminal Offenses
Threats and Extortion
§ 11-42-2 Extortion and blackmail. Whoever, verbally or by a written or printed communication, maliciously threatens to accuse another of a crime or offense or by a verbal or written communication maliciously threatens any injury to the person, reputation, property, or financial condition of another, or threatens to engage in other criminal conduct with intent to extort money or any unlawful pecuniary advantage, or with intent to compel any person to do any act against his or her will, or to prohibit any person from carrying out a duty imposed by law, shall be punished by imprisonment in the adult correctional institutions for not more than fifteen (15) years or by a fine of not more than twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000), or both.
History of Section.
(G.L. 1896, ch. 277, § 17; G.L. 1909, ch. 343, § 17; G.L. 1923, ch. 395, § 17; P.L. 1934, ch. 2113, § 1; G.L. 1938, ch. 606, § 17; G.L. 1956, § 11-42-2; impl. am. P.L. 1956, ch. 3721, § 1; P.L. 1980, ch. 95, § 1; P.L. 1992, ch. 461, § 1.)
Criminal Offenses
Threats and Extortion
§ 11-42-4 Threats to public officials. (a) Whoever knowingly and willfully delivers or conveys, directly or indirectly, a verbal or written threat to take the life of, or to inflict bodily harm upon, a public official or a member of his or her immediate family because of the performance or nonperformance of some public duty, because of hostility of the person making the threat toward the status or position of the public official, or because of some other factor related to the official's public existence, shall be guilty of a felony and shall be imprisoned for not more than five (5) years, or fined not more than five thousand dollars ($5,000), or both.
(b) For purposes of this section:
(1) "Public official" means a person who is elected or appointed to office in accordance with the constitution, a statute, or a city or town charter, or who is a judge, assistant attorney general, special assistant attorney general, or law enforcement officer, or in the case of an elective office any person who has filed the required documents for nomination or election to that office or who is appointed by the governor to serve as the director or his or her designee of a state department which is established, and the qualifications and duties of which are prescribed by statute to discharge a public duty for the state of Rhode Island;
(2) "Immediate family" means a public official's spouse, child, or children.
Looks like one of those full-time students that still lives at home with mommy & daddy.
With what?
Unless, of course, he's calling for an armed force of some kind with special permission to carry weapons so they can kill everyone this crank disagrees with.
Well done.
I'm not too concerned about Mr. Loomis' statements inciting another, his statements are a precursor of possible future violent acts by Mr. Loomis himself.
Yep. Spent 16 years getting his "education".

I want to try something. If any of you have ever read any of my articles or watched any of my videos or vlogs, you know that I am trying to do my bit to showcase paintball as a great family activity - sport.
Here is the thing, I have lots of footage of me playing with my son or of other moms and dads who happen to be on the field at the same time as me.
But thats just too small of a scale!
What I am hoping to do is show case other fathers and mothers, sons and daughters, grandmas and grandpas, playing the sport.
So if you are any of the above and you have footage and are willing to send it to me, I can edit it up and put it on my channel and/or provide it to any of the 'other' channels whom I provide footage to.
Obvious full credit goes to you. The goal here is to help promote paintball as a family activity - sport.
You can pm me. Email me at firstname.lastname@example.com. You can upload your footage to: http://www.fileswap.com/ and send me the link.
Episode One is Done:

Renewed commitment, reinvigorated engagement and refreshed cooperation with our European allies: This weekend, the transatlantic renaissance was in full bloom at the Munich Security Conference as foreign-policy leaders from around the world gathered to discuss, debate and engage on the critical issues facing the global community.
While the topics of the Munich conference ranged from Africa and Asia to the Arctic, it is no coincidence that such an impressive gathering took place in the heart of Europe. The United States knows that Europe is our indispensable partner as we address challenges across the globe. There is a profound connection between the countries of Europe and the United States that benefits not just our respective nations, but the broader global community.
Europe and America share a deep and powerful history: NATO celebrates its 65th anniversary this year as the gold standard of security -- 28 Allies as a force for peace and stability globally.
Simply put, the United States and the countries of Europe are natural partners. We are better, together. Stronger, more effective, more efficient and more able to provide security for our homelands, and project stability globally. And in NATO, we have built an Alliance which is on duty every day, trained, prepared and ready to do just that.
With our NATO Allies, and together with over 40 NATO partners, the United States works to counter today's threats, from ballistic missiles to piracy to terror attacks by nonstate actors, and remains poised to address emerging security challenges like cyberterror. As we transition our operation in Afghanistan to a mission focused on training, advising and assisting the Afghan National Security Forces, we will work together within NATO and with our partners to reinforce our exercises and modernize our equipment to guarantee that the Alliance can maintain the interoperability and readiness, as well as the critical relationships with partners, we've gained through 20 years of operations.
This September at the NATO Summit in Wales, President Obama will engage on these issues, alongside his fellow NATO leaders and Secretary General Rasmussen. At the Summit, we'll focus on many of the same topics discussed this weekend at Munich -- global security, emerging threats and the future of NATO, including the capabilities we must maintain and develop as an Alliance to counter future threats, and how we will broaden, deepen and strengthen our partnerships to make them even more effective, inclusive and responsive.
For 65 years, NATO has held the key to the peace which allowed our nations to grow strong, our economies to prosper and our citizens to be safe. As America looks to the Alliance of the future, our position is clear and our commitment is steadfast: NATO will remain the gold standard, safeguarding transatlantic security and projecting stability around the world.

@ Amb. Lute,
Barrel Bombs in Aleppo
Press Statement
John Kerry
Secretary of State
Washington, DC
February 4, 2014
Each and every day that the barrel-bombing of Aleppo continues, the Asad regime reminds the world of its true colors. It is the latest barbaric act of a regime that has committed organized, wholesale torture, used chemical weapons, and is starving whole communities by blocking delivery of food to Syrian civilians in urgent need.
Now, with air raids killing dozens more civilians in just the past few days, destroying apartment buildings, and barrel bombs striking a mosque today, the staggering civilian toll dramatically climbs. Each and every barrel bomb filled with metal shrapnel and fuel launched against innocent Syrians underscores the barbarity of a regime that has turned its country into a super magnet for terror. Given this horrific legacy, the Syrian people would never accept as legitimate a government including Asad.
While the opposition and the international community are focused on ending the war, as outlined in the Geneva communiqué, the regime is single-mindedly focused on inflicting further destruction to strengthen its hand on the battlefield and undermining hopes for the success of the Geneva II process.
Dear Mr. Ambassador,
It would seem that the premis of my following questions has become self-evident;
"My question is this, to my government; When it becomes obvious to you that folks prefer to find a military solution (including those arming the parties in conflict)to solve their national crisis, when do you kineticly intervene to deal with a regional crisis that has become militarized and threatens the peace and stability of the entire region? With or without diplomatic efforts underway to bring the parties to talks.
You can gain control over chemical weapons but the international community can not impose peace (or a halt to the fighting by overwhelming force being applied to eventually cause folks to cease and desist), on warring parties by rendering them incapable of making war on civillian populations?"
Source; blogs.state.gov/stories/2014/01/17/raising-womens-voices-syrias-conflict
...and I'm wondering where NATO would stand on this, as a security provider?
I understand I'm not a diplomat, so there's not a lot of nuance in the phrase "impose peace" , but I used it to mainly describe the opperative mindset involved in any action taken to render it impossible for Addad to wage full scale war on anyone, period.
Nato has been at war with al-quaida and affiliated groups, as well as non-members for over a decade, and it's like any crisis is a magnet for them to exxacerbate and declare to the US and allies, " We're Here! , come get us!" while hundreds of thousands die, millions more are made homeless including a 110year old man who is quoted as saying that "Assad has made the Syrian people beggars.", while sitting in a refugee camp.
And I might add that all the surrounding countries who have opened their hearts and doors have also had to beg for help to address the burden of humanitarian catastrophe, simply because it takes a village to manifest solidarity with the distressed and at risk.
There are those who say "arm the rebels"...and personally I think there are enough guns in Syria to go round, the key is separating Assad from his toys of war.
"We live in a world of nuclear giants and ethical infants..." and it's completely self evident that these words are cas true today as when they were spoken by Omar Bradley in what some might consider to be less "complicated" times.
My point here is that genocide isn't complicated, we know what it is when we see it being carried out. Folks can call it all kinds of other things, but when the totality is considered as a whole, this also becomes completyely self evident in Assads's actions, and that of his military.
Yet the chemical weapons are still in their hands and they are being rather slow in meeting their deadline to get rid of them to a third party for disposal.
I wish I could be an optimist that a meeting that produced nothing in the way of confidence building after 8-9 months of diplomacy leading up to it, bodes well for a transitional governing arrangement in a hypothetical future for Syria.
But what will absolutely gurantee a transitional government takes shape is if Assad is no longer any factor in the equasion , nor is his ability to give orders.
And if I was going to be diplomatic about it with the Russians, I think I'd simply ask them (if I were in the position to), " Do you want to do regime change this time, or should we?" With assurances by all concerned that they'd have all the help they needed if they removed Assad from the equasion, humanitarian aid and otherwise as needed to pull Syria out of this tailspin and put that country back on its feet.
That's just my 2 cents to help folks arrive at a diplomatic solution eventually.
Best regards,

Skip to comments.Herman Cain Flops on Gingrich Endorsement, Says, Lets Get On With This
Posted on 04/16/2012 7:36:45 PM PDT by VinL
Less than two months ago, Herman Cain, who was out of the race for the Republican presidential nomination, stood on a stage in West Palm Beach, just three days before the Florida primary and told the crowd, I hereby officially and enthusiastically endorse Newt Gingrich for the president of the Unites States. Gingrich had just come off a sweeping win in South Carolina, had the fundraising dollars pouring in and a financial safety net in billionaire donor Sheldon Adelson.
But on Monday Cain walked back his endorsement of Gingrich saying, With all due respect, lets get on with this, OK?
I even endorsed Newt Gingrich at one point because I thought that he had a shot. Well, not now. He doesnt have a shot, Cain said to Washington radio station WMAL.
A former Cain staffer told ABC News that Cains call for Gingrich to bow out isnt surprising.
He likes to go with his gut. Mr. Cain walked up to line of joining the establishment without crossing it, the former Cain staffer said.
Cain refused to comment to ABC News Monday over this mornings comments about Gingrich, but Gingrich campaign spokesman R.C. Hammond said the party is trying is lock down the nomination.
The angle right now is for the party to get to a nominee as fast as possible, Hammond said. Its up to Herman Cain whether or not hes put in his application with the establishment.
Cain wasnt the only Republican candidate to...endorse the not-Romney candidate. Rick Perry also endorsed Gingrich when he left the race.
A spokesman for Perry, Catherine Frazier, told ABC News that he will stay loyal to Gingrich but will support the eventual nominee.
Gov. Perry puts a premium on loyalty and hell back Gingrich as long as hes in the race, Frazier said.
(Excerpt) Read more at abcnews.go.com ...
Feeney, get your book out
Set down the name, the one Herman Cain.
Feeney, have you written the name I gave you?
Well, strike a line through it.
That's for him, Herman Cain.
Joining a host of others Drudge, Coulter, Fox, Cons. Radio, DeMent, Ryan, Rubio and many other DC conservatives.
I'm in, til Newt's out.
Just for a handful of silver he left us: just for a riband to stick in his coat.
Don't like it but hard to disagree. "Let's get on with it" makes sense to me.
And to think I gave this snake oil salesman (Cain)
50 bucks... Mr. Cain, I want my money back and take me off your e-mail list.
Me too.
Good on Perry.
So who was it we were trying to defeat?
Barack Obama?
Or Mitt Romney?
Think some people have lost sight of the end zone and are maybe even running the wrong way with the ball...
So who was it we were trying to defeat?
Chris, I'm trying to defeat the socialist Gop Establishment.
Feeney? What is that? What am I missing?
We should be supporting Newt until he's out. I'm hoping he is still able to contribute, if he can't win.
Voting for Newt in the PA primary. I absolutely refuse to vote romney. If romney ends up being the nominee, I will write in Sarah Palin in the general. That's it. I'm done.
And don't anyone dare say that my vote would be a vote for oscumma because two evils do not make a right...and in this case, there is no lesser evil.
I am all in to defeat Obama. I do not equate Obama and Romney. Romney isn't Obama. That may not meet FR orthodoxy, but that is my observation.
Romney, like Rush has said, can (and must be) PUSHED to the right. Obama cannot be pushed to the right...he is an Alinsky disciple.
Why should Gingrich expect people to endorse him when he has stopped campaigning? This is the welfare candidacy. Everyone should work and pay except Gingrich.
Wow, no loyalty from Cain. Glad he's not a friend of mine (or would he be a friend even though he said he was). Would not trust this man.
Cain jumping off the Newt train ping!
What a disappointment Cain turned out to be.
I (think) I heard Cain say something back when he was top dog. Something to the effect of...... we will have to help black people first because they are the worst off.......
Did anyone else hear him say this? He was not giving a speech, he was walking and talking to a reporter at the same time. I saw it on TV and it disturbed me. Anyone?
Cain has endorsed Romney.
He's just a real stand up loyal guy, ask his wife.
Observation? Are you sure you've actually taken the time to observe Mitt Romney's record as Governor of Massachusetts? The man governed more to the left than many Democrats.
Here's just a sampling:
Mitt Romneys Dismal Record
"As U.S. real output grew 13 percent between 2002 and 2006, Massachusetts trailed at 9 percent.
* Manufacturing employment fell 7 percent nationwide those years, but sank 14 percent under Romney, placing Massachusetts 48th among the states.
* Between fall 2003 and autumn 2006, U.S. job growth averaged 5.4 percent, nearly three times Massachusetts' anemic 1.9 percent pace.
* While 8 million Americans over age 16 found work between 2002 and 2006, the number of employed Massachusetts residents actually declined by 8,500 during those years.
"Massachusetts was the only state to have failed to post any gain in its pool of employed residents," professors Sum and McLaughlin concluded.
In an April 2003 meeting with the Massachusetts congressional delegation in Washington, Romney failed to endorse President Bush's $726 billion tax-cut proposal."
[Cato Institute annual Fiscal Policy Report Card - America's Governors, 2004.]
Romney's "accomplishments".
1. Implemented/created Gay Marriage in MA
2. Supported and forced Gay Adoption in MA
3. Supported Abortion wholeheartedly
4. Raised taxes/fees over 300% while being Governor of MA
5. Implemented a state-level Cap and Trade system.
6. Supported Man-Made Global Warming
7. Supported the Brady Bill
8. Implemented a state level Assault Weapons Ban after the Federal AWB was allowed to expire.
9. Supported TARP
10. Supported Amnesty for Illegal Aliens (Citizenship for those already here)
11. Supported McCain-Kennedy (Amnesty)
12. Implemented a socialized medicine in MA called RomneyCare complete with an Individual Mandate and $50 abortions.
13. Nominated 27 Democrats (out of 36 nominations) for judgeships in MA, many of them extreme left-wingers.
Damn, I'm glad I never placed my complete trust in Herman Cain. What a traitor.
I've had no use for Cain since he tried to make that stupid rock into a racial issue, then accused Perry of being behind his campaign troubles. And he never apologized, as a decent man would have.
Once again, we see the contrast between the character of Rick Perry and the character of Herman Cain.
When Cain quit, I was done. I don't like any of them after him. We needed a businessman to fix this financial
debacle....not a politician.
If you'd given him $400, he could have gotten a bottle of that nice wine he ordered on that trip.
We do, and it was the cainiacs who led the vicious war against Rick Perry and who now are moaning that we don't have a conservative candidate.
I agree with you completely FRiend! I'm for conservatives for sure, but it is total idiocy to sit out or whatever and let Obama have 4 more years.
What Planet are u living on?
If Romney was EVER going to tack right, it would have been
in the GOP primary's. He NEVER Did and he sure won't NOW.
Get real. This was a RINO from start to finish, without
even throwing out a few bones to conservatives during the primary's.
Boy, I just can't keep up with the "We loved them, but then they said something we didn't like so now we don't love them" list! My hand is getting cramps writing down all the former conservative heroes who've been tossed under the bus:
Ann Coulter
Paul Ryan
Karl Rove
Rush Limbaugh (on certain days)
Sean Hannity (on certain days)
Herman Cain
...and the list will go on. Sigh.
I liked him at first. But NOT $400 worth much.
He flamed out quick.
I am all in to defeat Obama. I do not equate Obama and Romney. Romney isnt Obama. That may not meet FR orthodoxy, but that is my observation.
Romney, like Rush has said, can (and must be) PUSHED to the right. Obama cannot be pushed to the right...he is an Alinsky disciple.
We missed a golden opportunity when Perry suspended his campaign. I was amazed at the anti-Perry venom that was spouted on this site.
What stunned me were the misrepresentations and flat out lies that were told about him.
I never did care for that two bit philandering a-hole Herman Cain.
And boy, did I catch crap for that position here on FR.
I feel vindicated. Clearly, he's just another opportunistic RINO lover. Nine nine nine my dyin' ass.
FUHC. AND the horse you rode in on.
Me too. Perry was the best candidate - Oh! But he wasn't a good debater......well look where we are now.
This is what we get when we let the media tell us "who can win" based on their phoney-baloney polls. The Perry hate on this site was disgusting and vile, and I'll not soon forget it either.
THe list could go on — you'd find it easier to make a list of those who aren't on the outs, especially after another month or so.
" - - - I even endorsed Newt Gingrich at one point because I thought that he had a shot. Well, not now. He doesnt have a shot, Cain said to Washington radio station WMAL."
From the above quote from your article, it is obvious that Cain defines the problem as "Who is Number One?" Which is the same as the sports-minded Liberal Agenda Media.
Cain definitely does not understand the problem which is to stop the culture of ever-expanding Federal Spending in "both" political parties.
It is revealing to remember that Cain, the Candidate, often said "I'm a businessman. The first thing I have to do is to define the problem."
So now Cain chooses Obamalite over Obama - - - whoop - - dee - - -doo.
Neither one of these politicians have a clue about the problem of Federal Overspending.
Some of us thought that Cain might not be a politician, it is now obvious that he is a politician, and has sold out Newt for the slimy favors of the GOP-Elite.
BTW, my definition of a politician is "anyone whose word cannot be trusted."
Was Cain a Summer Soldier,
Like Santorium at his test?
Did he sell out for favors,
And throw Newt 'neath the Bus?
Where are the Men with backbones?
Step up and advance The Cause!
All is silent 'cept out yonder - - -
Did you see him? Maybe not - - - .
Time flits by so fast
That is Tampa up ahead.
The speeches are all written,
Ready to be read.
Who will speak out for us?
Who will ring the bell?
The Fecal Federal Finger's shadow
Looms to send us all to HELL!
Will the Willard Romney,
Smiley-faced and all,
Lead us forth in battle,
Into The Gates of Hell?
Or will Milktoast Willy
Dilly-dally all the way,
Content to be just second best,
'Nair trying to save the day?
Mark Levin also gave up on Newt too soon.
Agree. I voted Newt and would still if my state had to vote in this primary. Cain should have stuck with Newt for a little while longer. I don't blame him too much. This is all but over. Cain endorsed Romney last time, just a many good conservatives did down the stretch. DeMint among others. Cain did not end up butting heads with romney too much like Perry and Newt did.
Yes, and if you stop and think about it, many were probably Romney supporters. Even some posing as Cain supporters.
One reason I supported Perry was you could trust his word, and he is proving that now.
It will defeat itself.
That is all it knows how to do.
In fact, it is already dead.
OK, how about this.
I'm going to vote for Mitt Romney because he's a caucasoid.
I don't really need much more reason than that in America 2012.
I love how everyone in the world is wrong but Freepers
I didn't know you were a poet. :-)
Mitt Romney, just like his father, George Romney, were friends with Saul Alinsky. Shocking.
Are they disciples of Alinsky? Mitt Romney is a self-avowed progressive, a national socialist like Hillary Clinton. You make up your own mind.
Do some research on Romney's record as a governor. Nothing he did as governor of Massachusetts was conservative. He cannot be pushed to the 'right' because he doesn't believe in it. For him, government is God.
Rush Limbaugh ceased to be a conservative quite some time ago.
The Judas!!! The Quisling!!!
The sheer gall!!!
