Sleep drug can
combat Alzheimer's

Daily Express [UK], by Sarah Westcott Original Article

Posted By: Attercliffe- 9/29/2012 8:29:29 AM Post Reply

A natural hormone linked to the sleep cycle has been hailed as an important new weapon in the fight against Alzheimer’s disease.[Snip] Scientists at the Barcelona Biomedical Research Institute found that daily exercise and a dose of the hormone melatonin worked together to slow brain deterioration in mice. The research, published in the journal Neurobiology of Ageing, showed that after just six months the mice saw significant improvements in their health, to the extent that their brains were closer to healthy mice than those with Alzheimer’s. Clinical studies on humans have found signs of improvement in Alzheimer's sufferers

Barack Obama blocks Chinese bid for
US windfarm on national security grounds

Telegraph [UK], by Staff Original Article

Posted By: Attercliffe- 9/29/2012 8:02:29 AM Post Reply

President Barack Obama has blocked a privately-owned Chinese company from building wind turbines close to a Navy military site in Oregon due to national security concerns. The rare Presidential order to block the project comes as Mr Obama campaigns for a second term against Republican Mitt Romney, who has accused him of being soft on China.[Snip] The windfarm projects were all within or in the vicinity of restricted air space at a naval weapons systems training facility in Oregon, the administration said. "There is credible evidence that leads me to believe" that Ralls Corp and Sany Group "might take action that threatens to impair the national security of the United States,"

"The Country He Served"

My weekend column muses on the glorious future foreseen by Obama’s speech to the General Assembly. But I’ve also been struck by the following passage on the late Chris Stevens, mysteriously asphyxiated by a spontaneous class-action movie review, as every government official from the Commander-in-Chief to his UN Ambassador has so persuasively argued. Last week, the President paid tribute to Stevens thus: (Snip) Chris Stevens loved his work. He took pride in the country he served, and he saw dignity in the people that he met. What does that phrase “the country he served” mean?

Confirmed: US Government Knew Benghazi
Raid Was Terrorism on "Day One"

Let's see. The United States suffered a deadly terrorist attack on the anniversary of 9/11, in which a sitting US Ambassador was murdered. Elsewhere, black Islamist flags were hoisted over four American embassies, following security breaches. The Obama administration lied about the cause and nature of the attack in Benghazi, misled the public about threats leading up to the massacre, and attempted to gloss over the outrageously lax security at the diplomatic outpost prior to the raid. They've dissembled and ducked tough questions, instructing journalists to stop asking about details of the massacre,

The Race: Obama now can
call himself job creator

Associated Press, by Tom Raum Original Article

For the first time in his presidency, Barack Obama can call himself a job creator. There are now more U.S. jobs than when he took office. Not by much, but they've moved out of negative territory, according to a Labor Department revision. It probably won't help Obama much in his race for re-election. The economy is still a long way from firing on all cylinders. But the revision - showing employers added 386,000 more jobs than had previously been estimated in the 12 months ended in March - was clearly good news for the White House

ACLU Sues to Stop Citizenship
Question on Michigan Ballots

Only citizens of the United States can legally vote in federal elections. So Michigan Secretary of State Ruth Johnson added a yes/no question on ballot applications that asks: "Are you a United States citizen?" According to the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Michigan, this simple requirement is "an election day disaster in the making." So the ACLU did what it usually does, which is to sue.

A poll released this week by the National Association of Manufacturers and the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) shows that a majority of small business owners and manufacturers think the U.S. business environment is getting progressively worse. The national survey, conducted between Aug. 13 and Sept. 4, interviewed 800 small business owners and manufacturers and found that 69 percent of them think President Barack Obama’s policies have hurt American businesses and manufacturers, and 55 percent would not start a business today given the current environment. “That’s something I think for us is not only alarming but really disappointing,

What do CNN, The Wall Street Journal, Bibi Netanyahu, a Lebanese website, and Mitt Romney all have in common? They told some truths inconvenient for President Barack Obama. They are now enemies of hope, enemies of change. They are a big pain in the rear for the man who "leads from the rear" by leading with his rear. President Obama thinks critics and foes need not only to be defeated, but to be crushed and shamed in the public square. Obama and his team said CNN's reports on terror in Libya were "disgusting" and "indefensible,"

It's become fashionable in certain center-right circles to argue that small-government conservatism has gained too much power. Tea Party economics, the grievance goes, would seismically shift our social contract and cast everyone onto the choppy waves of the free market. It is, therefore, little better than radicalism. David Frum usually leads this argument and, judging by his writings, you'd think he was practically alone, heroically steering his starship through a Delta Quadrant teeming with Tea Party marauders. If Frum is the captain, then New York Times columnist David Brooks is his number one. Brooks wrote a piece back in 2007

On May 7th, it was revealed that the Obama administration spent $8.35 billion on a “demonstration project” designed to postpone the vast majority of Obamacare’s Medicare Advantage cuts until after the election. On July 31st, it was revealed that the Labor Department warned defense contractors against notifying workers of impending layoffs before the election as well, despite the fact that it would require violating the law to do so. On September 21, it was revealed that a report on the Greek bailout will also be postponed until after the U.S. election.

THROW THE FLAG ON: President Barack Obama. CALL: Offside. WHAT HAPPENED: In an ad this week, the president touted "the $1 trillion in spending we’ve already cut." The two-minute ad has Obama posing the question : "So what’s my plan?" He describes four parts. "Fourth," he says, "a balanced plan to reduce our deficit by $4 trillion over the next decade. On top of the $1 trillion in spending we’ve already cut, I’d ask the wealthy to pay a little more. And as we end the war in Afghanistan, let’s apply half the savings to pay down our debt

MONTANA – The new school year is only a few weeks old, but it’s already becoming clear that the federal government’s new school lunch guidelines are about as popular as the NFL’s replacement referees. After EAGnews.org published a recent article about how the Obama administration’s new calorie limitations for school lunches are leaving many American students hungry (especially high school athletes), a concerned food service worker from a western Montana school district contacted us with news about how the guidelines are impacting her students.(Snip) According to our source, the new federal guidelines require vegetables to comprise the largest portion

Mitt Romney’s 47 percent are “dependent…victims” remarks to donors and Barack Obama’s I “believe in redistribution” speech as an Illinois state senator nicely frame one of the important debates of this presidential election. Under the surface of the arguments over big and small government, government spending and the deficit, and the future of entitlements and taxes lies a crucial difference between the presidential candidates on social policy: Romney believes in equality of opportunity while Obama seeks equality of outcome. Equality of opportunity has historically been the distinctive American way. When the French journalist Alexis de Toqueville

Read this column by Diana West while you can -- while we still have journalists brave enough to write the truth, and before the truth is censored. West, a syndicated columnist and author, noted an astonishing statement within Obama's speech to the UN General Assembly, and dissected and explored its meaning and terrifying implications. West's column, "The Anti-Blasphemy, Anti-First-Amendment President," highlighted this extraordinary Obama sentence: "The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam." West noted: No Big Media outlet reported this stunning pronouncement. It's as if Ronald Reagan addressed

Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) is coming to the defense of U.S. ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice — rumored to be his top rival to replace Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in a second Obama term. "I'm deeply disturbed by efforts to find the politics instead of finding the facts in this debate," Kerry said in a Friday statement. "I’m particularly troubled by calls for Ambassador Rice’s resignation. She is a remarkable public servant for whom the liberation of the Libyan people has been a personal issue and a public mission," Kerry said. "She's an enormously capable person

CHICAGO — His home in Washington is for sale. His wife says he’ll come back to work only when a doctor approves. He vowed to return to the campaign by Labor Day, a deadline that came … and went. Election Day is five weeks away, and Rep. Jesse Jackson remains out of sight. It’s an absence, both from his job in Congress and his campaign, that’s starting to test patience in his Chicago hometown. More than three months have passed since Jackson disappeared, initially a mystery that was later revealed to be a hospitalization for severe depression and gastrointestinal problems.

MANILA, Philippines- Britain, Australia and Canada have joined the United States in warning their citizens of a security threat in the Philippines, particularly in the capital, Manila. Philippine authorities say they have no information of a specific threat against Westerners but are treating the warnings seriously. On Friday, the U.S. Embassy in Manila said "reliable security forces" detected a threat specifically in suburban Pasay City where it maintains a residential facility and a Veterans Affairs office. It urged U.S. citizens to avoid gatherings that may be regarded as "American events."

Even though an end date for Downton Abbey has not been announced, series creator Julian Fellowes is already discussing his next project. Fortunately, this very well could be a prequel to our favorite British costume drama. At a BAFTA Screenwriters’ Lecture, Fellowes told the audience, “I do actually have an idea of doing a prequel of the courtship of Robert and Cora, when all those American heiresses were arriving in London. They had a slightly troubled courtship because she was in love with him before they married, and as we know, he married her entirely for her money.”

On Tuesday, the Court agreed to hear the petition of Millbrook v. United States, involving a federal prison inmate who sued after claiming he was raped by three guards. The unusual part is that Millbrook doesn't have a lawyer, has been warned previously about filing frivolous lawsuits, and his petition was written by hand on lined legal paper.

Why does Chuck Thompson hate black people? Just when the percentage of African Americans living in Dixie reaches its fifty-year high, Thompson writes Better Off Without 'Em: A Northern Manifesto for Southern Secession. Coincidence? Of course, the author never comes out and admits his prejudice. He employs code words. The good news is that I've deciphered his encrypted tome. The Rosetta Stone to understanding Better Off Without 'Em involves recognizing Thompson's use of "Southern" as a code word for "black" -- a practice akin to his younger white hipster brethren using "Canadians" as a sub rosa slur

In 2008, Sen. John McCain’s campaign for President cut an ad that compared then-Sen. Obama to Paris Hilton, labeling him the biggest celebrity in the world. While the ad did little to increase McCain’s chances, four years later, it’s obvious there was something prescient about the comparison. Since then, Obama the celebrity has eclipsed Obama the commander-in-chief. His presidential record is so dim, it begs the question: Has the President become just another celebrity? And, just as importantly, why don’t voters seem to care? Most recently, on a day that our embassy in Benghazi, Libya, was attacked

One pleasure of the Massachusetts Senate race is that we are all learning about the remunerative outside legal work on behalf of corporate defendants done by Harvard Law School's resident bankruptcy law expert. Let's just say she doesn't do this work pro bono. Everyone has to make a living, but Ms. Warren's legal moonlighting
