Obamacare Website Quietly Deletes Reference to 'Free Health Care' | The Weekly Standard:
"Even as President Obama and his administration are making a last minute push to encourage enrollment in Obamacare, a quiet change was made on the Healthcare.gov website regarding those who will still not be able to afford coverage after the program kicks in.
From at least June 26, 2013 to as recently as September 15, under the topic, "Where can I get free or low-cost care in my community?" the following statement appeared: "If you can't afford any health plan, you can get free or low-cost health and dental care at a nearby community health center."

"Gve them bread and circuses" NFL Sacks Taxpayers for Stadium Subsidies and Other Goodies
NFL Sacks Taxpayers for Stadium Subsidies and Other Goodies | Heartlander Magazine:
"The NFL is technically a nonprofit — thanks to a special exception in the tax code carved out by Congress in the 1960s — despite making billions of dollars of profit each year and paying top executives seven-figure salaries.
The NFL is allowed to negotiate contracts that would be illegal for companies like Apple or Exxon — thank Congress again for that one."
....Judith Grant Long, a Harvard University professor of urban planning, calculates that league-wide, 70 percent of the capital cost of NFL stadiums has been provided by taxpayers, not NFL owners."

They're ba-aack.........Lenders warn auto dealers about bias
Lenders warn auto dealers about bias | Crain's Detroit Business:
"Auto lenders are peppering dealerships with letters that say analyses of the dealerships' practices indicate a pattern of discrimination against minorities, women or the elderly in the loans they arrange for those customers.
....Many dealers say they think the letters were prompted by pressure on the lenders by the federal Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and see them as another attempt by the bureau to extend its oversight to dealers.
The law that created the bureau in 2010 did not give it jurisdiction over auto dealers."

Michigan Gov. Snyder accepts bribe, kneels, kisses ring. Praise as "statesman" oozes from MSM.
Tim Skubick: Gov. Snyder doesn't mind sidling up to White House if it helps Detroit | MLive.com:
"It was shades of Gov. Chris Christie walking around with the President himself in the aftermath of New Jersey’s tragic hurricane Sandy.
The occasion in Motown centered on the financial hurricane that threatens to bury the city and the rest of the state with it.
And just like Mr. Christie, Mr. Snyder is not about to put on his GOP partisan hat and tell the White House folks to take a hike, because they were riding in to deliver some badly needed financial largesse."

Driving affects ovaries and pelvis, Saudi sheikh warns women - Alarabiya.net English | Front Page:
"Saudi women seeking to challenge a de facto ban on driving should realize that this could affect their ovaries and pelvises, Sheikh Saleh bin Saad al-Luhaydan, a judicial and psychological consultant to the Gulf Psychological Association, told Saudi news website sabq.org.
Driving “could have a reverse physiological impact.
Physiological science and functional medicine studied this side [and found] that it automatically affects ovaries and rolls up the pelvis.
This is why we find for women who continuously drive cars their children are born with clinical disorders of varying degrees,” Sheikh al-Luhaydan said."

Britain may need to withdraw from European Convention on Human Rights, says Cameron - Telegraph: "The ECHR has been invoked by foreign criminals and terrorists fighting deportation from Britain.
They argue that its provisions mean they are entitled to various rights to be considered, including the right to a family life.
That has led to foreign criminals being allowed to remain the UK because they have family connections here."

Cultural equalists aghast- Boys stomp girls on the math SAT test
Boys vs. girls on the math SAT test | AEIdeas:
"I created the animated video above in the fall of 2010 after the SAT test results were released showing that boys scored 34 points higher on average on the math SAT test that year, following a long trend back to at least 1972 of boys outperforming girls on the math SAT test (see this recent CD post for more details).
Now that the 2013 results have just been released showing another +30 point advantage for boys on the math SAT, I thought it would be a good time to feature the video."

The dismal failure of 'Big Data' | ZDNet:
"After the financial meltdown in 2008, Alan Greenspan, the former Chairman of the Federal Reserve was asked questions by a Washington committee about how the crisis occurred.
He said all his financial models over the past 40 years were wrong.
Yet those models informed his adjustment of interest rates, and if they were based on wrong models, he likely harmed the economy, consistently, decade after decade.
It's truly an epic fail for Big Data."

“I had no idea.
I’m a little bit scared to be sitting here right now.”"
