National Prayer Day Shot Down; What Will Obama Do? - Law Blog - WSJ
"according to Wisconsin federal judge Barbara Crabb, who ruled on Thursday that the federal statute that created the day violates the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment.
“[I]ts sole purpose is to encourage all citizens to engage in prayer, an inherently religious exercise that serves no secular function,” wrote Judge Crabb.
“In this instance, the government has taken sides on a matter that must be left to individual conscience.”"

‘BEHAVIOR PLACEMENT’: GE’s Orwellian NBC Wants ‘You To Do Good’
‘BEHAVIOR PLACEMENT’: GE’s Orwellian NBC Wants ‘You To Do Good’
"Forget product placement, NBC Universal is trying “behavior placement” with some of its shows. Characters from programs such as “30 Rock” and “The Office” are acting out eco-friendly behaviors that advertisers hope will sway viewers.
WSJ’s Amy Chozick reports.
In just one week on NBC, the detectives on “Law and Order” investigated a cash-for-clunkers scam, a nurse on “Mercy” organized a group bike ride, Al Gore made a guest appearance on “30 Rock,” and “The Office” turned Dwight Schrute into a cape-wearing superhero obsessed with recycling."
Next time you consider purchasing a GE product.....think again.

Spending, Not Tax Cuts, Is the Real Driver of the Fiscal Mess
Spending, Not Tax Cuts, Is the Real Driver of the Fiscal Mess — The American, A Magazine of Ideas
"To balance the budget over the next 25 years, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) says, would require an immediate and permanent increase in tax revenues, or reduction in spending outlays, equal to 5.4 percent of gross domestic product (GDP).
To put that in context, that equals a 29 percent increase in all federal tax revenues relative to historical levels.
That means not just income taxes, but payroll taxes, corporate taxes, capital gains and dividends taxes, and other sources of revenue.
And it doesn’t mean just a 29 percent increase in tax rates, but—to account for the disincentive effects of higher taxes—even higher rates so that total revenue rises by 29 percent.
That’s a pretty big deal."

Extramarital sex fuels earthquakes: Senior Iran cleric - Middle East - World - The Times of India
"TEHRAN:
A senior Iranian cleric has claimed that dolled-up women incite extramarital sex, causing more earthquakes in Iran, a country that straddles several fault lines, newspapers reported on Saturday.
'Many women who dress inappropriately ... cause youths to go astray, taint their chastity and incite extramarital sex in society, which increases earthquakes,' Ayatollah Kazem Sedighi told worshippers at Tehran Friday prayer."

President's Nuclear Posturing, Part Deux: Biggest Threats Not Even On His Agenda
President's Nuclear Posturing, Part Deux: Biggest Threats Not Even On His Agenda
"So what was the major breakthrough announced by Obama at the end of the two-day conference?
That Ukraine, Chile, Mexico and Canada will be getting rid of various amounts of enriched uranium.
What a relief.
I don't know about you, but I lie awake nights worrying about Canadian uranium.
I know these people.
I grew up there.
You have no idea what they're capable of doing.
If Sidney Crosby hadn't scored that goal to win the Olympic gold medal, there's no telling what might have ensued.
Let us stipulate that sequestering nuclear material is a good thing.
But, it is a minor thing, particularly when Iran is off the table, and Pakistan is creating new plutonium for every ounce of Canadian uranium shipped to the U.S."

"Add to that the $30 billion the IRS estimates Americans will spend out-of-pocket on tax preparation (tax software programs, tax preparers, accountants etc.), and it's equal to the $139 billion annual output of the state of Oklahoma."

Recovery? Hah! Just Oscillating Unemployment Claims.
Recovery? Hah! Just Oscillating Unemployment Claims. « Uncommon Misconceptions
"For the past 5 1/2 months, the initial unemployment claims data have not really changed.
Here’s what I mean:
The data are oscillating about a slowly increasing value, indicating that, if anything, unemployment claims are increasing.
That means that for the past 5 1/2 months, every time the administration has told us that the unemployment situation is slowly recovering, and that the data show “the right trend,” they have been absolutely mistaken.
The media has been doing their typical baby duck analysis: every day is a brand new day, every unemployment claims report is the first one they’ve ever seen.
So we get headlines like, “job situation improving” when the number of claims drops, and “unexpected increase” when the number rises.
For half a year the claims data has just been oscillating – going nowhere.
And nobody seems to have noticed."

"In fact, that wasn't his promise at all.
Here's what candidate Obama really said in September of 2008:
'Under my plan, no family making less than $250,000 a year will see any form of tax increase.
Not your income tax, not your payroll tax, not your capital gains taxes, not any of your taxes.'
Got that? 'Not any of your taxes.'
The claim of no tax hikes on those below $250,000 as a result of the current administration's policies is completely and utterly false.
A report from the House Ways & Means Committee's GOP members notes that, since January 2009, Congress and the president have enacted $670 billion in tax increases.
That's $2,100 for each person in America.
At least 14 of those tax hikes, the report says, break Obama's pledge not to raise taxes on those earning less than $250,000.
Roughly $316 billion of the tax hikes — 14 increases in all — hit middle-class families, the report says."

The Teacher Pension Nightmare
The Teacher Pension Nightmare - Forbes.com
"Pension and retirement plans all over America have lost value.
Plans covering public school teachers, by their own admission, are underfunded by $332 billion.
However, the plans' real funding gap is far worse than their financial statements show, at nearly a trillion dollars--and you and I will bear the burden of covering their shortfall.
The story of how this happened is familiar:
States expanded their promises to retirees when times were good.
Then, the economy tanked, pension assets fell in value and states skirted their obligations to deposit cash in pension funds--all causing a funding gap.
But because benefits are contractually guaranteed, the obligation to cover any funding shortfall lies with taxpayers."

LAS CRUCES, N.M. — New Mexico State men’s basketball coach Marvin Menzies says Jahmar Young will not return for his senior season and redshirt freshman Jacoby Patton has been dismissed from the team indefinitely.
Menzies made the announcement in a statement issued by the university today.
Young was arrested early Sunday and charged with battery on a peace officer after he and a group of people were reportedly being disruptive inside a Las Cruces convenience store.
Young claimed not to know who Michigan State point guard Kalin Lucas was before the teams met in the first round of the NCAA tournament last month.
"We don't shy away from battles," Young said at the time. "We like tough games, you know. It's also a plus to play a name … what's his name?"
"Kalin Lucas."
"Kalin Lucas. I really never even heard of him. But if he's that good, it'll show."
Patton was also arrested on a misdemeanor charge following the same incident with Young.
Whatever....
