‘Worthless, Gutless Cowards You Say I Must Convert or Die’: Two Country Singers Just Wrote a Song With a Bold Message for Terrorists | Video | TheBlaze.com

‘Worthless, Gutless Cowards You Say I Must Convert or Die’: Two Country Singers Just Wrote a Song With a Bold Message for Terrorists | Video | TheBlaze.com:

“Dear worthless, gutless cowards you say I must convert or die.”

That’s the opening line to a new country song by country music songwriting stars Larry Gatlin and Billy Dean. It’s an unapologetic salvo aimed right at the Islamic State terrorists. And “aimed” is an even more appropriate descriptor once you hear the title of the song: “An American with a Remington.”

Look at These Numbers. Notice Anything Odd About the Differences Between the Critics’ and Viewers’ Scores of New ‘Left Behind’ Movie? | TheBlaze.com:

"When it comes to reviews for “Left Behind,” the apocalyptic rapture film starring Nicolas Cage, movie critics and the general public have notably diverged in their assessments.

While 70 percent of the more than 10,000 theater-goers who reviewed “Left Behind” on Rotten Tomatoes liked it — giving it at least 3.5 out of 5 points — just 2 percent of critics agreed."

Why slowing the aging process could save the U.S. trillions | The Rundown | PBS NewsHour:
"But a lower risk of disease is not the only possible benefit that would result from further delayed aging research; there may be potential economic benefits as well.
The study suggests that the monetary value of delayed aging is estimated to be around $7.1 trillion over 50 years — a number that’s certainly hard to ignore.
But the social return could be great.
More money spent on prevention would mean less money spent on treatments after the fact.
And, of course, it would mean a healthier, more productive population."

How Safe Is the Artificial Turf Your Child Plays On? - NBC News.com:
"Soccer coach Amy Griffin was in a Seattle hospital visiting a young goalie who was receiving chemotherapy when a nurse said something that made the hair on Griffin’s neck stand up.
It was 2009.
Two young female goalies Griffin knew had been diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma. 
Griffin, associate head coach for the University of Washington’s women’s soccer team, had started to visit the women and other athletes in local hospitals, helping them pass the time during chemo with war stories from her three decades of coaching.
That day, the nurse looked down at the woman Griffin was sitting with and said, "Don't tell me you guys are goalkeepers. 
You're the fourth goalkeeper I've hooked up this week.""

Board mulls in-school condom ads despite deeming breast cancer awareness bracelets ‘offensive’

Board mulls in-school condom ads despite deeming breast cancer awareness bracelets ‘offensive’ - EAGnews.org:
"EASTON, Pa. – First it was boobies, now it’s condoms.
The Easton Area School Board recently lost a three year legal battle after district administrators attempted to ban students from wearing “I ♥ Boobies” cancer awareness bracelets, and was forced to pay nearly a half million in legal fees.
Now the board is reviewing its policy on school advertising, and seem dumbfounded over whether or not to allow condom companies to advertise at the district’s schools.
At a meeting Tuesday, board members reviewed a recommended policy that would restrict lewd, vulgar, obscene, pornographic or illegal ads, but board member Matt Monahon questioned where condoms fit into the equation, LehighValleyLive.com reports.
“If I were in Trojan’s shoes I would say my product is neither lewd nor obscene nor vulgar nor pornographic,” Monahon said before suggesting the proposed policy also include a ban on ads “of a sexual nature,” according to the news site.
“I’m not trying to cause problems. I just want to make sure we’re no leaving these things open,” he said."

Top 2 at DIA got boost in compensation after millage

Top 2 at DIA got boost in compensation after millage:
"Compensation for the two top officers at the Detroit Institute of Arts climbed by double digits, including $50,000 bonuses for each, according to 2013 tax documents filed by the nonprofit.
DIA director Graham Beal's total compensation increased by 13 percent to $513,868.
Annmarie Erickson, DIA executive vice president and chief operating officer, saw her compensation increase by 36 percent in one year to $369,366.
The increases came in 2012, the same year voters in Macomb, Oakland and Wayne counties approved a $23 million millage to fund DIA operations for 10 years, and just months before the museum became embroiled in Detroit's historic bankruptcy case.
Over the past year, as creditors pushed the city to sell DIA treasures to pay its debts, an unprecedented coalition of foundations and the state of Michigan came together to pledge $816 million to shield the art from creditors and bolster Detroit employee pensions.."

High court denies gay marriage appeals

High court denies gay marriage appeals | WOODTV.com:
"Two other appeals courts, in Cincinnati and San Francisco, could issue decisions any time in same-sex marriage cases.
Judges in the Cincinnati-based 6th Circuit who are weighing pro-gay marriage rulings in Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio and Tennessee, appeared more likely to rule in favor of state bans than did the 9th Circuit judges in San Francisco, who are considering Idaho and Nevada restrictions on marriage.
On Monday, Michigan Attorney General Bill Schuette said he will wait until that decision comes down to weigh in on what the ruling in Washington means.
“It’s hard to tell, I think you’ll have commentators going back and forth on this as to the decision by the United States Supreme Court not to have a review at least at this time, so they’ll be back and forth on it.
But there’s a process and so now we wait for the decision of the 6th Circuit Court of appeals in Cincinnati,” Schuette said.
It takes just four of the nine justices to vote to hear a case, but it takes a majority of at least five for an eventual ruling.
Monday’s opaque order did not indicate how the justices voted on whether to hear the appeals."

Schools Ban Swings Because Everything Is Dangerous

Schools Ban Swings Because Everything Is Dangerous - Hit & Run : Reason.com:
"Schools in Richland, Washington, are phasing out playground swing sets.
According to KEPRTV:
Swings are blamed for the most injuries of any play equipment.
Richland School District already removed them from some campuses and will phase them out of the rest.

"As schools get modernized or renovated or as we're doing work on the playground equipment, we'll take out the swings, it's just really a safety issue, swings have been determined to be the most unsafe of all the playground equipment on a playground," said Richland School District's Steve Aagard.

Before your head explodes, remember that the school district has some very compelling argu... oh wait. 
It doesn't. 
Of course some kids get hit by swings and of course there are some injuries—even awful ones—but that does not automatically mean we must ban swings.
If it did, we would have to ban all solid food because some kids choke. 
We would have to ban all bikes because some kids wipe out and hurt themselves. 
We would have to chop down all of America's trees as well—at least in parks and playgrounds—because some children climb them and fall off."

This woman interrupted everyone’s lunch because she had a really urgent thing to say about chickens | Rare:
Kelly Atlas cares about chickens like no other. 
That much is apparent by the intensity of her walk-in speech at a restaurant where she told everyone who was eating chicken “it’s not food, it’s violence.”
Atlas, practically in tears and hysterical, told a story about her “little girl named Snow,” which is a chicken, and how it was abused its entire life.
The animal rights activist is on a campaign to shame all meat and fish and egg eaters to “create a world where animal liberation is a reality.”
As the speech wears on, other members of her crew appear with signs and chant “It’s not food, it’s violence” multiple times.

LIBERTY REVIEW

LIBERTY REVIEW:

http://www.libertyreview76.blogspot.com/2014/10/the-jv-ebola-by-tammy-derouin.htmlIn

September, the president stated that Ebola had very little chance of reaching our shore.  A few days later an infected man from Liberia entered the United States.  This president has a way of making grand proclamations only to come back later to clarify or state that someone underestimated the reality.  Of course, we know it’s never his fault.  I suppose this outbreak is the JV form of Ebola.

The director general of World Health Organizations said, “This is a social crisis, a humanitarian crisis, an economic crisis, and a threat to national security beyond the outbreak zones.”  Three weeks ago the president declared the outbreak a “national security priority.”

If this is a matter of national security, why hasn't he imposed a travel ban?

They can't even stop a fish! How they gonna stop ISIS?!!-------Former Great Lakes chief Patty Birkholz: 'No silver bullet' for Asian carp after invader's DNA found in Kalamazoo River

Former Great Lakes chief Patty Birkholz: 'No silver bullet' for Asian carp after invader's DNA found in Kalamazoo River | MLive.com:
SAUGATUCK TOWNSHIP, MI – As the former director of the state Office of the Great Lakes and a long-time legislator who worked to protect the environment, Patty Birkholz said that finding DNA of Asian carp in the Kalamazoo River is a clear warning that trouble could follow.
The state Department of Natural Resources said Tuesday, Oct. 7, that one of 400 water samples taken this summer near Allegan showed environmental DNA of silver carp, a strain of Asian carp. 
The eDNA could be scales, tissue, excrement or mucous of the fish, possibly brought here inadvertently on a boat or fishing gear.
Birkholz said that the spread of Asian carp from the Mississippi River watershed has concerned state and federal officials for years, costing millions of dollars. 
If the fish reached the Great Lakes, it could devastate the $7 billion fishery.

Poll: Support for gay marriage may be leveling off

Poll: Support for gay marriage may be leveling off | WOODTV.com
A new survey from the Pew Research Center indicates American support for gay marriage could be leveling off.
The study’s authors caution it’s too soon to draw any definitive conclusion. But the new poll released Monday found a 5 percentage point drop since February in Americans who want legal recognition for same-sex relationships.
Last month, 49 percent of Americans said last month they support same-sex marriage, compared to 54 percent in February. The margin of error for the new poll is plus or minus 2.5 percentage points.
The latest Gallup survey on gay marriage found acceptance of gay marriage was at 55 percent in May, but support was increasing by smaller margins than it had in previous years.

Finding a Video Poker Bug Made These Guys Rich—Then Vegas Made Them Pay | WIRED:
"At 1:30 pm on October 6, 2009, a dozen state and local police converged on Andre Nestor's split-level condo on a quiet, tree-lined street in Swissvale.
He was dozing on his living room couch when the banging started.
“State police! Open up!” 
The battering ram hit the door seconds later, splintering the frame and admitting a flood of cops into the house.
Nestor says he started toward the stairs, his hands over his head, when he came face-to-face with a trooper in full riot gear.
“Get on the floor!” yelled the trooper, leveling his AR-15 at Nestor's face.
Nestor complied.
The cop ratcheted the handcuffs on Nestor's wrists, yanked him to his feet, and marched him into the kitchen.
For the next two hours,
Nestor watched helplessly, handcuffed to a kitchen chair, while the police ransacked his neat home. They flipped over his mattress, ripped insulation from his ceiling, rifled his PC. 
At about 4 pm, Nestor's roommate, Laverde, arrived home and was arrested on the spot as an accomplice to Nestor's crimes."

$2 BILLION!??? On windmills?!!!------Bill to repeal Michigan renewable standard faces long odds

Bill to repeal Michigan renewable standard faces long odds | Midwest Energy News:
"Despite strong public support for renewable energy expansion in Michigan, three state lawmakers have introduced legislation that would repeal Michigan’s 10 percent renewable energy standard.

State Rep. Tom McMillin, a Republican from suburbs north of Detroit who is term-limited out of office this year, introduced House Bill 5872 on Oct. 1.
It would repeal the section in Michigan’s 2008 renewable energy law that stipulates how much capacity should come from renewable sources by 2015.
The bill is co-sponsored by fellow House Republicans Ken Goike and Ray Franz.
Michigan utilities are on pace to meet the 10 percent standard by the end of next year.
Over the summer, a Senate working group involving lawmakers and stakeholders has studied how the state should move forward once the mandate is reached."
...And while roughly $2 billion was invested since 2009, largely in on-shore wind, Clift said Michigan is also “on the front edge” of an expanded solar industry.

The Supreme Court turned away appeals this week that effectively raised the number of states allowing the practice from 19 to 30. 
On Tuesday, a federal appeals court rejected bans in Idaho and Nevada, which would become the 31st and 32nd states with same-sex marriage if the ruling is not put on hold for the Supreme Court to consider.

Inside September’s “Born Again” Jobs Report

Inside September’s “Born Again” Jobs Report | David Stockman's Contra Corner
At the end of the day, the US economy has not generated a single net new job outside of the HES Complex since mid-2001. 
There were 107.8 million non-HES jobs then and there were 107.6 million reported last Friday. 
Worse still, we are still 1.5 million jobs below the 2007 peak.
Stated differently, during the Greenspan Bubble of 2001-2007, the US economy at least gained several million non-HES jobs from the prior peak. 
This time we are still peddling backwards.
You would think that one of these days the labor market expert running our monetary politburo might notice. But you would be wrong.
