Forget The Beltway Pundits-- Could Kathleen Sebelius Win Back Voters In Kansas' Senate Race?

DownWithTyranny at DownWithTyranny! - 28 minutes ago
In 2002, Democrat Kathleen Sebelius, then the state's Insurance Commissioner, was elected Governor of Kansas over fringe Republican extremist Tim Schallenberger, 441,858 (53%)- 376,830 (45%). She ran on a platform that was pro-Choice, anti-capital punishment and against people carrying concealed weapons, called for a $1,000 per student increase in public education spending and refused to take the conservative "no new taxes" pledge. Her 4 years in office made an excellent impression on Kansas voters and in 2006 she was reelected with a whopping 491,993 votes (58%) against Republic... more »

Holistic Wellness - Dealing With Stress Naturally

Small Footprints at Reduce Footprints - 28 minutes ago
[image: Dealing With Stress Naturally]*Stress can cause headaches,* *fatigue, and anxiety*Stress is a normal part of life! It is our physical and emotional response to pressure. Most of us can handle some stress and, in fact, would probably be bored with life if we didn't experience any. It also helps us stay safe, giving us the ability to take action if we need to. The trouble comes when we have to deal with too much.

The situation in Ukraine should be de-escalating... At least there has been some good news coming out today that a deal has been reached to try to alleviate tensions and to stop the US puppet regime in Kiev from continuing to shoot its own citizens in Ukraine's eastern provinces.... The situation in Ukraine should have all parties agreeing to pull back their military and let cooler heads prevail in proper negotiations.... However, I am indeed troubled by some news that was sent to me by a recent commentator, and it should concern everyone, especially my fellow citizens living in thi... more »

Has War With Russia Been Averted? (For Now).... A Deal Has Been Reached On Calming Ukraine Tensions!

Northerntruthseeker at Northerntruthseeker - 1 hour ago
I have been busy the last few days continuing with renovations, personal work, and family business... I just started taking a look at what has been happening around the world via the alternative news via the Internet ( I have long ago given up on any of the BS news coming from the Jewish run mainstream media), with much interest in the continuing situation in Ukraine. What I found tonight has been some of the best news over the last while about the ongoing troubling situation in Ukraine....It appears, according to the following report from the Anchorage Daily News website, at www.a... more »

JR at GREENIE WATCH - 2 hours ago
*Amusing: Lewandowski revisited* Stephan Lewandowski has written two papers designed to show climate skeptics as nutters. The first was accepted for publication in a good journal but not actually published and the second was published but then withdrawn. Both papers have however been readily available on the internet for some time. The second paper was largely designed to refute the many substantial criticisms of the first. A major criticism of the first paper is that many of the statements Lewandowski gathered could have been the work of "trolls", impostors or other people no... more »

JR at GREENIE WATCH - 2 hours ago
*IPCC cries wolf on global warming, again* PierreGuy Veer The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) recently released the summary of its fifth report. Unsurprisingly, it still blames humans as the main driver of global warming — or, climate change, climate disruption, extreme weather; whichever term you prefer. It’s unsurprising that the IPCC, an organization founded to find a way to limit human influence on climate, would sound such an alarm. After all, if it was discovered that nature is the main driver of the changes in climate, the IPCC would be out of a job. Of cour... more »

Instead of apologizing for their lies, the lying liars of Fox Noise simply tell . . . new lies!

Fox Noise *What? Ya mean we wuz supposeta sign up for evil, liberty-destroying Obamacare? Who knew? And now this terrible surprise creeps up on us. (Even though people who were in even occasional contact with reality knew about it . . . well, from the start. Apparently nobody told poor Jim Angle, or his editors.)* *by Ken* Thanks to HuffPost's Joan McCarter ("Fox News outraged that all the people it told not to buy insurance can't get insurance until fall") for calling attention to Brian Beutler's newrepublic.com post "The Right's New Scam: Feigning Anger on Behalf of People They... more »

A tire goes flat, a meeting starts: Defining a culture

Jody Paterson at A Closer Look: Jody Paterson - 4 hours ago
I suppose I’ll be comparing here with there for a while yet, even though I’m a big believer in living where you’re at. But just two weeks back, I’m seeing the differences between Honduras and Canada so clearly right now with these newly returned eyes, and it’s pretty interesting to reflect on what’s good and bad in each of our cultures. I've come up with a little story that I hope demonstrates what I think is a fundamental difference between the cultures of Canada and Honduras. Here’s the scenario: A person is in a car going down the highway, headed for a morning meeting at ... more »

Old AJOB Rut re. Prenatal Dex Picks up New Steam as Undisclosed Double Loyalties and Dependencies of Now Editor Skip Nelson are Revealed

noreply@blogger.com (Christian Munthe) at Philosophical Comment - 5 hours ago
I'm sure several readers remember a long series of posts across 2011-12, connected to a series of internal troubles in the management of the *American Journal of Bioethics.* One of the roots of all that mess was a controversy that eventually led to the resignation of Hilde Lindemann from the AJOB editorial board in protests of its managerial operations, followed by other weighty ones later by, e.g. Udo Schuklenk and John Lantos. Eventually, after much external pressure, following a less than elegantly handled stepping over to private business by then editor-in-chief, Glenn McGee (la... more »

Neocon Washington Post Gives Rand Paul a Forum

Donn Marten at Carrying a Flag - 5 hours ago
Outside of Fox News there has been no bigger cheerleader for the ongoing series of American wars of aggression that only serve to alienate, bankrupt and poison the national soul than at The Washington Post. Do not be fooled by the Pulitzer Prize for journalist Barton Gellman's reporting on the documents procured by former government contractor turned NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden, the WaPo is a teeming snakepit of neoconservative propaganda. Which is why it was a bit surprising to see an editorial written by Kentucky Senator Rand Paul shoehorned in between the rants, screeds, p... more »

East Ukraine Jew Registration Tale Reeks of CIA Psyop

Donn Marten at Carrying a Flag - 5 hours ago
In a rapidly spreading sensationalist story about the evils of the pro-Russian (translation: anti-austerity) opposition in East Ukraine a particularly lurid piece of vile propaganda has been launched into the US state-corporate media echo chamber. There has been an amazing discovery of leaflets distributed in Donetsk requiring all Jews over the age of 16 to register with the authorities, the culprit behind this obvious false flag operation is the vaunted bastion of dumbed down American journalism USA Today - which is written at about a seventh grade reading level. For those who ha... more »
