In an interview on Iowa Public TV in 2007, Barack Obama advocated sending “price signals” to middle class consumers in order to “change their behavior.” “Price signals” being an Orwellian code word for punitive taxes and fees. And Obama doesn’t seem to care much who it would hurt. (go to link to see video)

The Story of Buzz I was sitting in the local saloon, middle of summer, having a cold brew when I first ran into Buzz. The bartender had a fly swatter, chasing the hordes of flies away from the brew he was serving. Since I live in horse and cow country, flies can be a big problem around here. My neighbor, the Bishop, once got some chicken droppings and spread them over his lawn as fertilizer. That was a miserable summer in our neighborhood. I armed my 7 year old son with a fly swatter, and told him that I would...

Russian bombers buzz US base in Guam By Adrian Blomfield in Moscow Last Updated: 7:36pm BST 09/08/2007 Russian bombers are reported to have buzzed an American military base for the first time since the Cold War when they flew over the Pacific island of Guam. Google Map: The island of Guam in the West Pacific Moscow said that US fighter jets were scrambled to intercept the two Tupolev-95 warplanes as they resumed the Cold War era practice of flying over Western offshore military installations in a mission on Wednesday. The incident, seen as the latest attempt by a revitalised Russia...

In the early days of American politics, no man would dare openly run for President of the United States, zig zagging across the country trying to drum up support. It was considered unseemly and self-aggrandizing for a politician to be seen grasping for power in such a naked way. So the putative candidate would run what was commonly known as a “Front Porch Campaign” where party leaders and supporters from across the country would show up at the candidate’s home and appear to plead with him to accept their support. The candidate, humble and diffident, would gratefully acknowledge their activities...

Sex Toy Ban Has Wiggle Room Before Starting The buzz in Alabama this week was over a vibrator ruling. A federal appeals court ruled that the state's ban on sex toys is constitutional. But the adult playthings won't be disappearing immediately. The state attorney general's office has agreed not to enforce the law pending further appeals. The appeals court held that the state legislature could ban sex toy sales in the interest of preserving public morality. Sherri Williams, who owns the Pleasures adult toy shops in Huntsville and Decatur, is among those who challenged the law. She said she's disappointed...

DETROIT (Reuters) - They're going electric in the Motor City -- well, maybe not just yet. But it made for a nice "buzz" as the world auto industry gathered on Sunday at one of its premier events, the North American International Auto Show, with gas-electric hybrids and even "plug-in" electric cars all the rage. It was almost enough to make one think, in the age of global warming worries and $60 per barrel oil, that the gasoline combustion engine was on the way out. Japanese auto giant Toyota Motor Corp (7203.T), the leader in hybrids, said it expects to sell...

CHICAGO - The last time Jim Lovell and Buzz Aldrin saw their Gemini 12 spacecraft together, it was bobbing in the Atlantic Ocean following their 1966 mission. The two astronauts were reunited with the capsule Thursday as part of a new permanent exhibit called “Shoot for the Moon,” at the Adler Planetarium. “This was a good bird. It did its job,” Lovell said of the capsule, which has burn marks on its base from its re-entry into the atmosphere, and a jumble of switches and toggles on its control panel.

They have such whimsical names as heavenly blue, crimson rambler and pearly gates, and delicate blooms that crawl quickly up trellises. But when morning glory seeds aren't planted -- when they are instead ingested -- whimsical thoughts can crawl through altered minds with kaleidoscope-like visions. Kristy Peterkin, whose family owns Ayers Variety and Hardware, says the owners caught two teenage boys stealing "13 or 14 packs of these seeds." And teenagers know this. Once popular in the hippie era of the 1960s, morning glory seeds as a hallucinogen seem to have sprouted once again. Local gardening shops have noticed their...

COLUMBIA, S.C. -- A House subcommittee Wednesday approved a bill allowing the sale of stronger beer in South Carolina.

Welsh inventor's 'mosquito' makes noisy teens buzz off A Welsh inventor claims to have found the perfect solution to rowdy youngsters: noise. Howard Stapleton says his device, the "mosquito", emits an uncomfortable high-pitched ultrasonic sound that can be heard by children and teenagers, but almost no one over 30. It has successfully driven away noisy teens from a grocery store in the Welsh town of Barry and a shop in Stapleton's home town Merthyr Tydfil, making smoking, lounging and foul-mouthed youths a thing of the past.

MARINE CORPS BASE CAMP PENDLETON, Calif. (Aug. 4, 2005) -- They drill, they build, and if need be, they fight — with rounds ready in their M-16A2 rifles. They’re Seabees – Naval construction battalions trained in combat skills to support Leathernecks overseas. “(Our) mobile construction battalions provide aid for Marines in theater (via) the forward operating base,” said Navy Lt. Dude L. Underwood, referring to Marines’ constant presence in Iraq. These hard-hat-wearing sailors not only build bunkers, they also rebuild structures while providing their own security. When they’re not overseas, they’re seen working on home-front projects in various places —...

February 17, 2005 -- HAS Warner Bros. gone daffy? For Kids' WB's new show "Loonatics," a futuristic bugs Bunny loses his light-and-fluffy look to become a fierce, sharpclawed beast with superpowers. Warner Bros. That's what fans of the studio's classic cartoon characters might be asking after they get a look at the new, futuristic versions of some of their favorite animated heroes, which Warner unveiled yesterday. The Looney Tunes characters — six in all — have been "reimagined" (in studio parlance) for a new series called "Loonatics," which is set to air next fall on WPIX/Channel 11 as part of...

LONDON (AFP) - Watch out Starbucks. British beermakers are wooing the caffeine-crazed with a new beer made from fair-trade coffee beans, to be launched on Friday. Coffee beans from the central African country of Rwanda are mixed with barley grown in Britain, creating a beer with the same amount of caffeine in one bottle as in a cup of coffee. Drinkers can get an added buzz from the political correctness of their coffee, labelled fair trade -- meaning it has been grown in conditions which ensure the fair treatment of and living wages for workers in developing countries. British supermarket...

DERELICTION OF DUTY Many Americans are blaming President Bush for the tragedy of 911 and Osama bin Laden. In reading the book, "Dereliction of Duty," by Lt. Col. Robert "Buzz" Patterson USAF (Ret.) Carrier of the "Nuclear football," many parallels can be drawn comparing President Clinton’s past administration, and one Senator John Kerry promises to install if he is elected. As you read the circumstances and warnings, merely adjust the time-table forward and the possibilities become frighteningly obvious. Sandy Berger’s involvement, given his current situation, is also fascinating. The following is a review of some of the most hair-raising and...

<p>The New York Times Magazine had a lively cover story in its Sept. 28 issue about the recall election, and it started with an equally lively anecdote about how Gov. Gray Davis' next-door neighbor disliked Davis' un-neighborly behavior so much she gave $2,000 to the recall campaign.</p>

What should a political party do to minimize debate on the part of their constituents over real issues and simply pre-program voters to think and act a certain way? Well, first thing, control education at the national level where you can teach kids WHAT to think instead of HOW to think. Secondarily, feed your constituents a series of one-line bumper sticker slogans which sound great but have about as much real meat as your average soy-burger. Can there be any doubt that liberals are the masters of this art? Personally, I have, for a long time now, been very wary...

<p>Assembly Speaker Herb Wesson, due to leave the lower house next year, is once again fishing for support of a measure to revise the legislative term-limits law and delay his exit.</p> <p>Just last spring, private polls showed voters had no appetite for a couple of proposed revisions.</p>

Bee blamed for car crash A bee that flew up a motorist's trouser leg is being blamed for a car crash that caused more than £7,000 of damage. The driver, from Mockmuhl in Germany, told police he lost control of the car and swerved into oncoming traffic when he tried to free the bumble bee from his trousers. No one was injured in the crash, but two cars were badly damaged. A police spokesman said, however, that they were still investigating the crash as the bee had "mysteriously disappeared" after the accident. Story filed: 10:16 Friday 20th June 2003

<p>Assembly Speaker Herb Wesson called for a recess last week during a long night of bill debate so that he and fellow caucus members could make their appearances at a health care industry fund-raiser for the Democratic Party, prompting Republicans to take him to task.</p>

<p>The new chairman of the two-house budget committee that will negotiate a legislative budget plan has some unique tools to try to twist arms during his year's talks: burgundy and brie.</p> <p>Sen. Wes Chesbro, D-Arcata, whose home district includes wine-producing Napa and Sonoma counties, has been hosting Wednesday night wine-and-cheese parties to try to "get to know people," as he prepares for his role as legislative budget steward, said spokeswoman Darby Kernan.</p>

<p>It took them nearly a year, but the staff of the state's political watchdog agency has determined that Davis administration officials didn't break mass-mailing rules by flooding state publications with gushing tales of the Democratic governor's greatness during last year's re-election campaign.</p>

Beverly Hills police said they are investigating a complaint that Apollo 11 astronaut Edwin E. "Buzz" Aldrin struck a man in the face Monday after the man asked Aldrin to swear on a Bible that he had been to the moon.

<p>Bart Sibrel, a man who claims that man never set foot on the moon, also claims that famous Apollo astronaut Buzz Aldrin punched him in the jaw on Tuesday in Beverly Hills.</p> <p>There's a small cottage industry of people who, like people who still believe that the earth is flat, or alternatively, that it's round but hollow, live in an alternate reality--one in which NASA was not capable of sending men to our sister orb in the 1960s. Unfortunately, it's not small enough. While just a few percent believe this, according to most polling, that still constitutes millions of people deluding themselves about what many consider the greatest achievement of the 20th century, and perhaps in history to date.</p>

Cannabis poses a greater threat to health than tobacco, lung experts have warned. The warning comes on the day that Home Secretary David Blunkett is due to make a Commons statement about the future of government drug policy. Many young people are simply not aware that smoking cannabis may put them at increased risk of respiratory cancers and infections . Dame Helena Shovelton: The Home Affairs Select Committee has recommended that cannabis is downgraded from a class B drug to class C. This would mean that possession would lead to a caution, rather than arrest. The British Lung Foundation is...
