Vegan Chickpea pancakes😍🥞
Tag someone that would love this!👇🏼👇🏼
Super beautiful and easy recipe to make any time of the day! The recipe is very adaptable so you can make the pancakes exactly how you like them. Very convenient when you have some leftover veggies in the fridge, and very healthy as well💪💪
– 1 cup chickpea flour
– ¼ cup nutritional yeast
– 1 tsp each garlic powder and onion powder,
– 1-3 tsp dried oregano, to taste
– salt & pepper, to taste
– ¾ – 1 cup water
– 1 tbsp oil (optional for pan)
– 1-2 cups veggies (mushrooms, onions,
– handful spinach, rough chop
– ¼ cup black beans
– ½ cup cashew cream (optional)
– toppings: tomato, avocado, green onions,
– hemp hearts (garnish)
– pinch of hot pepper flakes (garnish)
– drizzle sriracha hot sauce
Saute veggies of your choice in a skillet over medium-high heat (or use any leftover veggies in your fridge). I sautéed mushrooms, onions, and red peppers. Then I added a handful of chopped spinach and black beans right at the end and stirred until the greens wilted. Set aside.
Prepare toppings: tomatoes, green onions, avocado, and cilantro. Set aside.Make cashew cream if using. I make the spicy sriracha flavour.
Meanwhile, mix chickpea flour, nutritional yeast, spices (garlic powder, onion powder, dry oregano, s&p) in a medium bowl. Add ¾ cup of water and whisk until fully incorporated. If too thick, add a tablespoon at a time until desired consistency is met (pancake batter). Stir it in the sautéed veggies.
Heat a cast iron skillet on medium high heat with a splash of oil. OR if oil free – use a non-stick pan. Heap the batter into 4-8 even pancakes in the pan (will vary depending on how many veggies you are using).
Cook until brown and crispy on both sides (3-5 minutes).
Serve the pancakes with the toppings!

by Deji Abiodun
Lagos monarch, Oba Rilwanu Akiolu, on Thursday said he has not endorsed any presidential candidate ahead of next month’s election, stating that God will give Nigeria the best among the lot.
NewsWireNGR recalls that Oba Akiolu was first to endorse the All Progressives congress Governorship Candidate in Lagos state, Akinwumi Ambode months before the party’s primaries.
Akiolu during an interview at the Naval Dockyard, Victoria Island, Lagos, while attending the commissioning of four Nigerian Navy ships by President Goodluck Jonathan reacted to speculations that he has endorsed the APC presidential candidate, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari
He described the reports as false.
“Who gave you that rumour? Who said so? Some of the things they are writing, like that former Minister Obanikoro, I went to his aged mother that they should warn him seriously. For the presidency, I support the best person.
“If I want to do something I do not pretend, God almighty Allah will give the presidency to the people Nigerians want to do the best for this country.
Akiolu used the opportunity to reiterate his support for the candidature of APC’s Akinwunmi Ambode for Lagos governor, adding that he acted on God’s wisdom in picking Ambode.
“I have my reason for saying it and I do not hide it. I acted on God’s wisdom and picked Akinwunmi Ambode and by the grace of God, he will be the governor of this state.”
The monarch took a swipe at former President Olusegun Obasanjo and former Minister of State for Defence, Musiliu Obanikoro, accusing the former of crying foul after all his evil deeds.
He commended the President for the new acquisitions for the navy, adding “the very energy which God gave them to do this, they should do many other things for the country so that all will be well with us.”
Akiolu, who said the Dockyard, a large area of land was collected from the noble family in the colonial days without compensation, urged the federal government to do something in order to solve the inherited problem.
On election postponement, he said the reason given by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) was acceptable, adding that he was hopeful the elections will hold come March 28 and April 11.

One of the most popular attractions at the University of Connecticut Storrs Campus is Horsebarn Hill; but the topography of the land there was at one point extended all throughout what is now UConn’s main campus, according to UConn professor of geology Robert Thorson.
“What I’m trying to communicate here is the science story behind the birth of UConn,” Thorson said. “The campus buildings align with the glacial frame.”
The glacial frame, Thorson said, is made from the soil and rock that was naturally pressed and shaped into the hills that Horsebarn Hill is known for today. There’s no reason to think that these hills were confined to just on one side of route 195, Thorson said. They extended all throughout present day campus and still do today through various ridges and bounds.
“Horsebarn Hill is one of those rounded hills in general,” Thorson said. “And so is the one under Beach Hall. And Storrs Hall. And most of the campus. Basically the idea is that the farm is successful because of that material.”
The material Thorson is referring to is the prime soil that makes UConn such great farmland — both today and in the 1800s.
“It starts with Storrs Agricultural School. It had 13 students,” Thorson said. “You’re not going to found an agricultural school on a crummy farm.”
Thorson said today’s hills are still on campus, just not as exaggerated.
“If you go from Austin to Koons, you have to go up a hill and then down a hill. The Wilbur Cross building ridge was flattened,” Thorson said. “When you lay Koons Hall down in 1906 it set the pattern for all the rest. The buildings flattened those things [hills].”
Before UConn grew to be what it is today, however, parts of campus were integrated to Horsebarn Hill-like hills, Thorson said. One building in particular, Old Main, stood out to Thorson.Old Main in 1890 was perched on one of these hills,” Thorson said. “Imagine Horsebarn Hill with an academic building on top of it.”
Most college campuses lay on flat ground or are even integrated into a city. UConn is different because of its roots, Thorson said.
“Charles and Augustus Storrs [gave] this land to make a small, agricultural school,” Thorson said. “Why did they do it? They did that because the land was still productive enough. This is upland, not lowland area.”
Thorson wrote “The Shape of Storrs,” a self-proclaimed “lyrical” essay, which appeared in UConn Magazine and included a whimsical video to help better tell in a creative way the story of how UConn came to be.
“This is UConn’s creation story,” Thorson said. “That’s the way I think of it, shrouded in the past, but this one isn’t mythical. It’s actual.”
After the release of “The Shape of Storrs,” Thorson came out with a more detailed, fact-filled piece entitled, “The Shape of Storrs: A Technical Addendum.”
“The purpose is I love the place. I wanted to share it,” Thorson said. “The main purpose is to let people know that geoscience matters.”

In Liberia, successive Nigerian contingents were instrumental in the UN Mission’s efforts to help disarm more than 100,000 fighters and to assist with a series of elections. Above, voters inspecting ballot papers on election day in Montserrado in October 2005. UN Photo/Eric Kanalstein
Until February 2018, the largest Nigerian contingent was deployed in Liberia, where the UN Mission will successfully complete its work on 30 March. Nigeria was the first country to join UNMIL in 2003, when authority was transferred to the UN Mission from forces led by the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS). Pictured, UN peacekeepers from Nigeria on an evening patrol in the streets of the capital, Monrovia.
Nigeria has made commendable efforts to include female peacekeepers in their ranks. Out of the 20,000 Nigerians who have served in Liberia, more than 1,500 were women. The UN is taking steps and engaging with Member States to include more women in its peacekeeping operations around the world. Pictured is Corporal Memunatu Yahaya during an inspection at the UN base in Monrovia.
Being away from their families for months at a time is one of the most difficult aspects of being a UN peacekeeper. Pictured, Lance Corporal Titilope Adepoju, a female peacekeeper from Nigeria posted in Monrovia, speaks with a relative on video-chat from her base.
Nigeria first provided UN peacekeepers to the UN Operation in the Congo, known by its French acronym ONUC, from 1960 to 1964. Their mission was established to help the Congolese Government maintain law and order, and provide training and technical assistance. Pictured, Nigerian police officers conduct drills with Congolese recruits and local policemen in Bukavu in May 1963.
Since 1948, more than a million women and men have served as UN peacekeepers. Seen here are female police officers from Nigeria engaging with local children as they patrol the slum of Martissant in Port au Prince as part of their duties with the UN peacekeeping mission in Haiti in 2009.
Nigerian police, pictured above, patrol the northern Malian city of Timbuktu. Some 320 Nigerian police and troops are taking part in the UN peacekeeping operation in Mali, MINUSMA, with the aim of supporting the government in stabilizing the country after Islamist and Tuareg rebel fighters gained control of the north back in 2013.
Nigerian UN police officers serving with MINUSMA take part in crowd control training along with Malian police officers at the Ecole Nationale de Police in Bamako. UN Police provide advice to national police services, help ensure compliance with international standards of human rights and promote public order and the rule of law.
In addition to more traditional peacekeeping roles, Nigerians are also medics and dentists at UN peacekeeping missions. Pictured, a Nigerian peacekeeper provides dental services as part of a medical camp for some 150 inmates and officials at a prison in Nyala, South Darfur.

A Pilgrimage to Alaska - Interview with the Chancellor
August 22, 2013 Length: 25:37
Fr John Parker interviews Archimandrite David Mahaffey, Chancellor and Administrator of the Diocese of Alaska of the Orthodox Church in America.
"I am coming up on two years of listening to AFR and wanted to let you know I was chrismated in the local Carpatho-Russian Orthodox Church I attend right before Christmas. AFR has been a wonderful source of information and inspiration on my journey to the Orthodox Church. Thanks for all that you are doing!!"


On October 18, the night the city council was set to vote on the revised ordinance, the citizens of Southlake began arriving, anxious to find out what the ordinance would hold, and what it would mean for both sides. Aalund was there. So was Rucker. At the outset, the city attorney warned the council that enacting too burdensome an ordinance could amount to what's known as a "regulatory taking" — the legal term for what happens when laws prevent mineral rights owners and leaseholders from developing the natural resources beneath them. Mineral rights owners in town had threatened litigation if the council passed an ordinance containing setbacks so large that they effectively banned drilling in Southlake. But municipalities have long been given free rein to regulate themselves, and there's almost zero settled case law placing the city in danger of an unfavorable ruling. Terrell said it was a very real threat that weighed heavily in the council's deliberations. Anti-drillers characterized it as a last-minute, desperate scare tactic.
Residents for and against filed up to the podium to make their positions known, though by stalling the process and driving XTO out of town, there was the unshakable sense that Rucker and the others had already lost.
"I think the ordinance, as it's currently written, is going to kill drilling in Southlake," said Steve Oren, a composed, well-dressed elderly man.
"This could be a very important source of income for my family, my children," Jim McCutcheon said. "My real problem is the bigger picture. I've been to three of these meetings and each seems to deal with more and more restrictions."
Too much regulation here in Southlake, he continued, was simply the state of America writ small.
Disgusted with the pace of the proceedings and the lateness of the hour, Rucker stalked out before she could speak. But her comment card was eventually read aloud, and it conveyed her opposition to the proposed ordinance, which would keep the 1,000-foot setback between drilling rigs and homes, prohibit fracking during summer months due to the drought's impact on the water supply and establish a 300-foot setback from ignition sources like Joe Wright's tank farm.
She worried that if the ordinance passed, neither XTO nor Chesapeake nor any other company would return, and that the greatest resource since Spindletop struck oil would go untapped here.
As the council members entered their votes into computers, the susurrus of whispered conversations quieted. The results were transmitted to a projection screen: 7-0 in favor of added restrictions on fracking in Southlake. It was a little after 11 p.m., and the city council had just approved one of the most comprehensive drilling ordinances in North Texas. Aalund and his cohort rose and made their way outside. So did Joe Wright and Jim Milner, old-time Southlake men — good ol' boys, some in town call them — who stood the most to gain. Neither would comment. Everyone seemed weary, by the late hour and by a resource that had caused so much rancor in a town so unaccustomed to it. Neither side was sure what they'd won, or even who'd won at all.
That much wouldn't be clear for a few weeks.
The backlash from the industry didn't wait long.
"If you have to invest your millions — and we're talking tens of millions in many cases — in order to potentially be issued a permit by any city hall, they may still have the option to decline, whether through their zoning process or their special use process or whatever," says Julie Wilson, Chesapeake Energy's vice president for corporate development in the Barnett Shale. "Each city handles it a little differently. It's a pretty big risk to take if you can't meet that ordinance exactly the way it is.
"And then when you have made these investments and you're ready to move forward, and the ordinance changes, and now you can't meet the new ordinance requirement, you can see the conundrum there. You've proceeded forward in good faith thinking you were going to be allowed to develop your minerals and the ordinance changes."

No 1941 represents the third stage of carriage development on the GWR, from the broad gauge papier-mâché bodies through the short 30ft coaches to the larger Dean bogie carriages being built in the last ten years of the 19th century. This coach is 46ft long, has 8 compartments seating 10 passengers in each. Lighting was by gas provided from tanks under the coach chassis. There is no provision for a corridor and no provision for any lavatory. The gas lamps were tall and to provide space in the compartments the central section of the roof was raised forming what is known as a clerestory roof, so keeping the lamp clear of the passengers' heads. The carriage is mounted on Dean centreless bogies, which are supported at the corners of the frames and not in the centre as is normal. In 1901 it cost £812.0s.0d to build.
Introduced in the 1890s they replaced earlier coaches and being built in hundreds with many variations, they formed the basic coaches until newer designs appeared in the first decade of the 20th century.
Some of these carriages lasted in passenger use until the late 1950s, following which a few spent further time as departmental coaches as did 1941. 1941 was discovered at Newport (Gwent) in a marshalling yard, and after purchase was moved to Canton Depot for work to continue. It now boasts a full complement of 8 fully restored compartments, completely reupholstered in ‘Brown and White star’ moquette from the early 1900s
This in its day was the standard third class coach, now it is one of only two in existence. The other, No. 1357, is awaiting restoration here at Didcot.
This lovely vehicle is normally on display in the carriage shed but very occasionally escapes for a run on the demonstration lines.

We should all appreciate those men who faithfully teach us the Word of God. We should all be thankful for our own pastors at our local body's that feed us on a regular basis. Pastoring is no easy task if they are faithful pastors to the Word of God. The gospel of Jesus Christ is offensive so pastors who faithfully preach the Bible will be met with resistance. We ought to be grateful for these men as they challenge us to also be faithful to the gospel no matter the cost. J.C. Ryle speaks right of preachers when he says:
"The work of the preacher resembles that of the sower. Like the sower, the preacher must sow good seed, if he wants to see fruit. He must sow the pure word of God, and not the traditions of the church, or the doctrines of men. Without this, his labor will be in vain. He may go to and fro, and seem to say much, and to work much in his weekly round of ministerial duty. But there will be no harvest of souls for heaven, no living results, and no conversions."
As we see these truths in our pastors so should they be a part of our own lives as Christians. May we be faithful to sow the seed of Scripture in the lives of others. May we be faithful to labor for the kingdom of Christ and not our own selfish gain. May we long to see souls rescued from eternal destruction by the grace of God through the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross. Let us be challenged by our pastors but also strive along with them with the message of hope in Christ crucified.
Grace upon grace,

Fedor and the rest of the team were thrilled to have so many members of the public follow the balloon through the final stages of the flight to its landing point.
Several hundred people were onsite for the landing or shortly afterwards. Many kids (and adults as well) were able to walk inside the half deflated balloon and also helped squeeze out the last of the air.
Unfortunately in their enthusiasm the souvenir collectors got a little carried away and many parts of the balloon were removed. The balloon will go into a museum which is being specially built in Moscow and we really would like some of the missing parts to complete the collection. Of particular importance is the valve mechanism from the top of the balloon and the solar panels. These have absolutely no monetary value or use but are obviously of great importance to Fedor.
If the people in possession of these parts would contact us we will collect them from you and provide you with large pieces of the balloon fabric personally signed and endorsed by Fedor Konyukhov. Alternatively if you wish to remain anonymous please drop these parts outside the Northam Airport aero club. The solar panels and valve are of enormous personal value to the pilot and the RTW project team and your help with their return would be sincerely appreciated.

He also said the company wishes to create goodwill among communities as they plan to redevelop Panguna Mine.
Togolo said this following the company’s Annual General Meeting on Thursday.
Togolo said it was important to note that BCL was a PNG company with both the PNG and ABG governments as major shareholders.
“The National Government and the Autonomous Bougainville Government have 36.4 percent each. They own the company because they have significant interest in the company on behalf of their respective people,” said Togolo.
Given their majority shareholding, it was important that positive and constructive relationship was in place.
“We respect the Government of the day. We want to work together, and also we know that the Government, the Bougainville Government like the Papua New Guinea Government, have got significant interests as shareholders and their interest as a board we’ll have to look after that interest and to make sure that we create goodwill and understanding among the community in order for us to redevelop the Panguna Mine.”
With the referendum approaching, Togolo says that is a political process they will not be involved in.
But they encouraged both governments to work together during the process.
“But as a company we are focused to see how we can redevelop the mine which will be of benefit to Bougainvillean people and the Government of Papua New Guinea.”

FXLA2204: Dual-Mode, Dual-SIM-Card Level Translator
Description: The FXLA2204 allows two hosts to simultaneously co...
The FXLA2204 allows two hosts to simultaneously communicate with two Subscriber Identity Modules (SIMs) or two User Identity Modules (UIMs). Dual Mode refers to the mobile phones that are compatible with more than one form of data transmission or network (such as GSM, CDMA, WCDMA, TDSCDMA, or CDMA2000), resulting in a dual-baseband processor configuration. In a Dual-Mode application, the FXLA2204 host ports interface directly with the baseband processors.
The bi-directional I/O open-drain channel features auto-direction, which requires external pull-up resistors. RST and CLK provide uni-directional translation from host to card only.
Either host can swap SIM slots with the assertion of a single control pin: CH_Swap. The typical channel swap time is 130 ns.
The FXLA2204 does not contain internal Low Dropout Regulator (LDOs). Instead, the FXLA2204 architecture incorporates two low-RON internal power switches for routing existing Power Management Integrated Circuit (PMIC) LDOs to individual SIM slots. This reduces overall system power, leverages existing LDO system resources, and aligns with the philosophy that centralizing LDOs in the PMIC facilitates power management. Since the FXLA2204 does not block the LDO function to the SIM card, existing activation / deactivation timing transparency is maintained between Hosts, PMICs, and SIM cards.
The device allows voltage translation from as high as 3.6 V to as low as 1.65 V. Each port tracks its own port power supply.
Easy-to-Use “Single Pin” SIM Card Swap Control
Channel Swap Time: 130 ns (Typical)
Simultaneous Dual-Mode, Dual-SIM Communication
Host Ports: 1.65 V to 3.6 V Voltage Translation
Card Ports: 1.65 V to 3.6 V Voltage Translation

Power Switch RON: 0.5 Ω (Typical)
Supports Class B 3 V SIM / UIM Cards
Supports Class C: 1.8 V SIM / UIM Cards
Non-Preferential Host VCC Power-Up Sequencing
Activation / Deactivation Timing Compliant per ISO7816-03

The Internal Circadian Clock Increases Hunger and Appetite in the Evening Independent of Food Intake and Other Behaviors. Delayed meal times reset body clocks. Eating at 'wrong time' affects body weight, circadian rhythms. How Late Night Snacking Wrecks Your Energy - The Energy Blueprint. Meal Timing and Composition Affects the Circadian Clock. Light May Modulate Hunger Hormones. On August 30, 2012 at 5:45 am As you know, at Dan’s Plan we emphasize the importance and interrelationships between diet, physical activity, and sleep.
For simplicity sake, I often wrap circadian rhythms under the sleep umbrella. Circadian rhythms are 24 hour patters of biological activity that – under normal environmental conditions – align themselves with the light and dark cycle of one full day. While sleep and wake activity are fundamentally connected to this process, most if not all biological process are under the influence of this cyclical pattern. Light is the most significant moderator of the master rhythm and it also directly stimulates physiological processes, like cognition.

Chrononutrition: A Timely Intro to This Key Component of Your Health (Part 1) “You are what you eat” is an aphorism that most of us are familiar with.
The notion that when you eat and drink is also a critical determinant of the effects of diet on health may not be as widely recognised, but an accumulating body of evidence supports the importance of the time of your body’s internal ‘clock’ in determining your metabolic responses to eating. In turn, your dietary choices have a reciprocal influence on your body’s clock. Chrononutrition: Shortened Eating Windows, Breakfast-skipping, Eating Late, and More (Part 2)
On July 21, 2017 at 12:19 am In Part 1, we briefly looked at how the circadian system times our daily patterns of behaviour and physiology, as well as how the circadian system is synchronized with the 24 hour day.
In doing so, we discussed how the foods we eat, and the types and amounts of nutrients available, are key to synchronizing the ‘clocks’ in many of our bodies’ tissues. Today, we will delve deeper into this subject, exploring the many ways that when we eat influences our metabolic health. Research has found that if other animals eat at times when they would typically be asleep (night-time for us), they tend to get fatter and experience other metabolic disorders. But when they can only eat in a shortened eating window of 12 or less hours each day they are leaner and healthier. Rodents suffer from bad health effects when they eat at the ‘wrong’ times We see this clearly in rodents. But what about us humans? Timing nuances. You Burn the Most Calories During This Time of the Day, a Study Finds. November 14, 2018 Weight loss would be so much easier if we had a magic formula telling us the best time of day to work out to burn the most calories, wouldn’t it?
Unfortunately, that’s not yet possible, but new research helps scientists understand how it might work. “The conventional wisdom is that if you want to measure someone’s REE, you don’t really pay attention to what time of day you do it. You take the measurement and assume that it’s the true measurement,” says senior study author Jeanne Duffy, PhD, associate neuroscientist in the division of sleep and circadian disorders at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston. The findings don’t necessarily show if weight loss is easier at different times of day, Dr.
“It’s really a leap of logic to say that we should be thinking that we might burn more or less calories at different times of day,” Duffy says.

Chrononutrition: Consistent Eating Patterns, Caffeine, and Principles for Better Health (Part 3 with Podcast)
On August 17, 2017 at 11:04 pm Eating at roughly the same times each day may improve things like blood sugar control and appetite regulation.Caffeine can modify circadian rhythms and could help you adjust to new time-zones more quickly if used intelligently.
If you’re flying west, for instance, you might try consuming some caffeine late in the day to speed synchronization to the new time-zone.Considering your chronotype can help you optimize your diet according to your own circadian biology.Shortened eating windows can be useful, but aren’t for everybody. When Is the Best Time to Eat? Around this time of year, much of the world is advancing their clocks by one hour to make efficient use of seasonal daylight.
Americans switched to Daylight Saving Time last week, and this week Europeans will revert to Summer Time. When this happens, we all “lose” an hour of sleep, because we have to get up and get things done an hour earlier than we have been. This is in relation not just to the light and dark cycles of the day, but also to our body clocks. One hour sounds like a small change, but it can make a big difference in how we function, at least in the short term. For example, data from the past two decades shows that there is a statistically significant spike in the number of car wrecks on the Monday immediately following the shift to Daylight Saving Time in the US.
As we all adjust to the time change, it’s worthwhile to consider how other aspects of our lives can sway our circadian rhythms. Cellular Energy Needs Shift across the Day A recent study by Dr. References. Certain Dietary Fats Disrupt the Coordination of Metabolism, Others Don't. On April 8, 2016 at 7:44 pm This is my second article on food and the circadian system.
The science of body timing rhythms is complicated. But, like diet and exercise, it’s worth investing some mental effort to understand the fundamental aspects of it because not only is it crucial to health and wellbeing, but also because it is a topic on which you can take action! Circadian Rhythms The circadian rhythm is a complex system that helps our body coordinate physiology and behavior across a 24-hour period of a day. We can adjust our body timing without causing health problems (e.g., slow change of the seasons). Fuel Preference Changes across the Day In my previous article entitled When Is the Best Time to Eat, we discussed research on how enzymes that determine the rate of energy generation from glucose and fats wax and waned across the day.
Metabolic Control. Feeding Time // Diabetes Reversal // Weight Maintenance. On April 25, 2016 at 11:03 pm Here is a recap of some of the most interesting stories in science and health that we’ve been reading and discussing over the past week – focusing on regulation of body fat and blood sugar.
First, a group of Japanese researchers demonstrated how circadian misalignment, caused by shifted feeding patterns, can wreak metabolic havoc. Perhaps more importantly, they uncovered what precisely is happening inside of the brain and body to at least partially cause this. Next, we look at an English study, which revealed a way to that we might be able to put diabetes in remission – without drugs. Does Dim Light at Night Make You Fat? On April 27, 2017 at 10:10 am Playing with your smartphone at night does more than just disrupt sleep.

Senate Republicans turned President Trump’s impeachment trial into a farcical exercise in partisan whitewashing. That leaves the job of canceling Trump’s reality show presidency to U.S. voters.
A heavy responsibility thus lies on Democratic caucus and primary voters as they start selecting their party’s nominee next week. If they make the wrong choice, it means four more years of Trump’s corrosive assaults on reason, democracy, and basic human decency. For many, the right choice will require setting aside their ideological druthers and picking the candidate most likely to beat Trump in the Electoral College.
It’s hard to know at this point which candidate is most electable. It’s easier to say who isn’t—and Sen. Bernie Sanders tops the list. Despite the devotion he inspires among young left-wing activists, the self-avowed socialist is too far outside the U.S. political mainstream to be considered anything but the longest of long shots against Trump.
Sanders is Democrats’ Jeremy Corbyn option, someone who offers ideological catharsis to America’s perennially disappointed left but who cannot unite a Democratic Party—or a country—that lies much closer to the political center.
A solid majority of Americans (55 percent) have a negative impression of socialism. Young people have moved left in recent years, but the country as a whole hasn’t. A New Center survey finds that 34 percent of Americans place themselves on the right of the political spectrum, 23 percent on the left and 43 percent at the center. New Gallup polls also confirm that America remains a moderate country that lists slightly to the center-right.
Democrats split down the middle, with 42 percent identifying with the center and 42 percent leaning left. Independents are much more moderate: 60 percent identify with the center, 22 percent with the right and 17 percent with the left.
The basic electoral math shows Democrats can’t beat Trump with liberal-left voters alone, especially in the older, less educated and diverse Midwest states that decided the 2016 election.
They will need a nominee who can make inroads among swing voters in those states: moderate and GOP-leaning independents, college educated suburbanites, and culturally conservative, blue collar whites.
For Sanders, however, the first stumbling block would be moderate Democrats. His palpable disdain for them is amplified by zealous supporters who excoriate centrist Democrats as “neoliberals” or “corporate Democrats,” presumably because they obstinately refuse to see it’s time for America to trade in free enterprise for socialism.
No wonder White House aides view Sanders as their dream opponent this fall. Trump lately has been disingenuously defending Sanders in tweets and claiming Democrats are scheming to cheat him out of the nomination again.
Sanders has laid out an ambitious—even utopian—agenda for toppling “capitalism” and massively expanding federal power to reengineer a more equal America from the top down. Unfortunately, his “unapologetically progressive” ideas create enormous vulnerabilities for Democrats.
Start with his controversial plan to force all Americans into a government health care monopoly. Sanders’ backers insist that Medicare for All is popular, but public support quickly dissipates once voters understand what it means. They strongly oppose being compelled to give up the private insurance plans they get from their jobs, as well as the substantial tax hikes entailed in moving everyone into a public program. For example, a recent poll of Democrats in Michigan found only 18 percent who said they’d be willing to pay as much as 10 percent more in taxes for Medicare for All.
And it will take a lot more than that to cover the plan’s stratospheric cost—estimates range from $32 to $40 trillion over 10 years. Sanders hasn’t specified how he’d finance it, other than promising the super-rich will pay the full freight. Not possible, says Rob Shapiro, a prominent Democratic economist. He calculates that Congress could raise income and payroll taxes by 50 percent, and double the corporate tax, and still not cover more than 60 to 74 percent of the cost of moving 228 million more Americans to the Medicare rolls.
Sanders’ spending ambitions don’t stop with single-payer. A partial list includes his Green New Deal proposal ($16 trillion over the next decade); as well as multi-trillion plans to build affordable housing; rebuild infrastructure; make tuition “free” at all public universities; pay off all $1.6 trillion in college student debt; and, create universal preschool.
Although the U.S. unemployment rate has dropped to its lowest level since 1969, Sanders also is pushing an unprecedented federal job guarantee for all Americans. Each job would cost taxpayers around $56,000 and would likely wreak havoc in labor markets as low-wage workers flock to make-work public jobs.
All told, Sanders’ plan would cost about $60 trillion over the next decade, doubling the size of the federal government. It’s hard to believe that U.S. voters, already leery of Washington, will support Sanders’ redistributive superstate—especially when they learn it will mean punishing taxes on everyone or crushing levels of public debt.
Another major political liability is Sanders’ call for a ban on fracking. That would shut down the remarkable shale energy boom that over the past decade has made the United States the world’s largest producer of natural gas and oil. It’s bad climate policy and bad politics.
Posturing against fracking might gain Sanders extra voters in deep-blue California and Northeast, but it would hurt him (and Democrats down ticket) in pivotal battleground states such as Pennsylvania, Ohio, New Mexico, and Colorado. Shale production has created tens of thousands of good, middle-class jobs for the very blue-collar workers Sanders claims to speak for, not to mention lowering fuel costs for U.S. manufacturers and households. “If a candidate comes into this state and tries to sell that policy (a fracking ban), they’re going to have a hard time winning,” says Pittsburgh Mayor Bill Peduto, a Democrat.
These examples hardly exhaust the list of political flanks a Sanders nomination would expose. His relentless business-bashing—the private sector is always the villain Sanders’ economic parables—and his quasi-pacifistic security and foreign policy outlook also would be hard sells to moderate Democrats, never mind swing voters.
In fairness, Bernie Sanders is everything Donald Trump is not: honest, decent, and principled.
Authentic he is, but all the authenticity in the world can’t make Sanders the pragmatic leader Democrats need to build a winning coalition in November. But it would make him the perfect foil for Donald Trump, Fox News, and Republicans eager to deflect accusations of political extremism back onto Democrats.

What is the difference between misdemeanors and felonies in Arizona?
Water company owner and founder George Johnson removed himself from the management of Johnson Utilities on Friday after he and three others were indicted on federal charges.
Johnson and Gary Pierce, a former chairman of the Arizona Corporation Commission; Pierce’s wife, Sherry; and lobbyist Jim Norton were indicted Tuesday in U.S. District Court on eight charges including bribery, conspiracy and fraud.
Prosecutors allege Gary Pierce approved higher rates for Johnson Utilities in the East Valley and Pinal County in exchange for $31,000.
On Friday, Johnson’s attorneys filed a notice with the Corporation Commission stating he had removed himself from management of the utility and would “devote his time to defending himself until he is cleared of the recent charges.”
Johnson’s company serves about 20,000 customers in Pinal County and has faced other controversies in recent years.
A May report from the Natural Resources Defense Council ranked Johnson Utilities No. 2 in clean-water violations among the state’s 10 largest water systems with at least one violation. Tucson ranked No. 1.
In December, the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality warned that water from Johnson Utilities was unsafe for infants to drink because of high levels of nitrates. It removed the warning a few days later.
Johnson, who is also a developer, was a part of a record settlement with the state in 2007 for $12.1 million for environmental damages including bulldozing Hohokam archaeological sites, destroying native plants, bulldozing state trust land and bulldozing private land without permits.

Versatile British actor Hugh Laurie, an American favorite for his role in the hit TV series House, showcases his musical side in an atmospheric special filmed in New Orleans. Defying simple categorization, Laurie finds his greatest satisfaction and inspiration from the mixture of blues and jazz that grew out of New Orleans at the beginning of the last century. Let Them Talk is his personal journey into the heart and soul of that music. Including documentary and interview segments during Lauries travels around the city, the program features his performances with blues legends Allen Toussaint and Irma Thomas, as well as a fellow countryman similarly inspired by this uniquely American music, Sir Tom Jones. With concert sequences filmed at the historic Latrobes building in the French Quarter, the musical selections include New Orleans blues standards along with some forgotten and neglected gems.

In a week that included more vicious spats, manly spit-swapping, and too-real reality than the average Thanksgiving dinner, our teacher/mother/secret lover TV didn't disappoint! Check out what parts of Heroes, South Park, Dancing with the Stars and ER made our Top TV Moments.
12. Most Dangerous Special Ability: Heroesis pretty tough on the pre-cogs. On a show where hardly anyone really dies, we've seen two painters of the future lose their heads — literally. Sylar took Issac Mendez's ability (and skullcap) in Season 1, and this week Arthur Petrelli decapitated Usutu. We'll stick to flying, thanks.
11. Best Saliva Swap: In the latest Chuck, our hero has to save Casey from imminent death by using his own blood to mix an antiviral concoction. The syringe breaks, so how can Chuck transmit the antivirus? Through his saliva! In a most un-bromantic moment, he kisses manly-man Casey full on the lips; this is no mere peck. Casey nearly dies from embarrassment. Watch the whole episode with our Online Video Guide.
10. We-Share-Your-Embarrassment Award: Rascal Flatts lead singer Gary LeVox, acknowledging that his flowery velvet jacket — with untucked purple shirt, yellow tie and yellow pocket square (!) — was doing nothing to change country music's image as the worst-dressed entertainment segment: "I'm glad this (award) happened fairly early in the show because I've got to get Ma-Maw's curtains back — soon."
9. Best Mash-Up:Law & Order: Special Victims Unitmanaged to tie together two scandalous news stories — a supposed teen pregnancy pact and a mom cyberbullying a kid into suicide. Heartthrob Jesse McCartney played a jilted boyfriend, while Entourage star Debi Mazar stood out as a mother whose son killed the guy who got his sister pregnant.
8. Most Disappointing Reality: This week's Biggest Loser: Families episode proved that even a good-hearted reality show can be vicious. While Vicky, Brady, Ed and Heba were downright mean to Phillip — calling him a "sleaze-bucket" and "horrible role model" for no reason at all — Amy had the guts to stand up to her team, vote Brady out and break up the Blue team alliance.
7. Best School Musical: South Park joins the High School Musical-mockery industry with a cheerful little episode featuring these reliably acerbic song lyrics: "Do what you wanna do/Just make sure that what you're doing/is what's cool and popular with everyone else." Watch the whole elementary school extravaganza with our Online Video Guide.
6. Most Honest Answer About a Previous Honest Answer About a Previous Honest Answer: Jennifer Anistontold Oprah Winfrey why she said it was "uncool" when asked about Angelina Jolie opening up about the timeline of her relationship with Brad Pitt: "I basically just answered it as honestly as I could." Coming soon: Oprah's response to Aniston's response to Aniston's response to Jolie's response.
5. Most Super Sacrifice:
We anticipated that the "big moment" in this week's Smallville would be the flashback to a Young Chloe planting a kiss on Young Clark, just to "get it over with." Little did we know that the hour's real jaw-dropper would be Clark begging Jor-El to restore Chloe's memory — save for her knowing her BFF's secret. In saving Chloe from that burden, Clark deprived himself of one super confidante.
4. Best Surprise Wedding: Night Court stars Markie Post, Harry Anderson and Charlie Robinson finish what they started 16 years later on 30 Rock. Knowing how upset Kenneth was about the new NBC page uniforms, Tracy gets them to perform the unaired Night Court wedding finale, and hilarity ensues. Following his arrest from a prank pulled by guest star Jennifer Aniston, Jack fills Liz in on his own "Night Court" experience: "The hookers are not funny, and there's a lot more sickly homeless people and terrified college students."
3. Best Speech: After Ben Affleck ridiculed his over-the-top indignation on Saturday Night Live, Keith Olbermann toned it down this week to deliver a moving plea for legalizing gay marriage: "This is not about yelling," he said. "This is about the human heart. And if that sounds corny, so be it." Watch his Special Comment with our Online Video Guide.
2. Most Awkward Tears: While most of the Dancing with the Stars pairs spouted boring psychobabble ("I feel like I need you to tell me when I'm pushing you too hard") during Dr. Drew's counseling sessions on Tuesday, Hannah Montanastar Cody Linley legitimately broke down crying, telling his pro partner Julianne Hough how much he cares about her and that she "brought out the best in him." Julianne, also tearing up, praised the show for introducing her to some of her best friends.
1. Best Flashback: On Thursday's heartbreaking ER, we learned how Dr. Cate Banfield (Angela Bassett) first came to County General: as the mother of a patient being treated by Dr. Mark Greene (Anthony Edwards) as he was undergoing chemo for his brain cancer. The episode is doubly tragic, as both doctor and patient are on the road to fatal diagnoses.

In response to a Monday report suggesting Huawei may be a threat to America’s national security, the company has come out with a press releases lambasting the unfair verdict. The Chinese telecom company said the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence’s findings were baseless and unsubstantiated.
According to Huawei, the company cooperated fully with the Committee in “an open and transparent manner,” sharing key information about funding and financial operations during face-to-face talks. Despite being open and cooperative, however, Huawei said the Committee’s investigation was moving forward with a “predetermined outcome,” citing a quote by the chairman of the Committee that encouraged American businesses to stray from Huawei tech.
The Committee’s report not only ignored our proven track record of network security in the United States and globally, but also paid no attention to the large amount of facts that we have provided, Huawei said on Monday. The report release by the Committee today employs many rumors and speculations to prove non-existent accusations. This report does not address the challenges faced by the ICT industry… We have to suspect that the only purpose of such a report is to impede competition and obstruct Chinese ICT companies from entering the US market.
Huawei goes on to plead its case for innocence, highlighting the company’s 25 year history and commitment to “safety and integrity.” Additionally, the company said it’s no different from any Silicon Valley start-up, reiterating its dedication to its values and “entrepreneurial spirit.” Huawei isn’t particularly big in the U.S., but it’s still a pretty huge blow being branded as a national security threat. We’ll keep you posted on how things develop further.

ARM PAIN AND SHOULDER PAIN – WHERE IS IT COMING FROM?
Many people have experienced pain in their shoulders and arms, especially those who sit more for their work. I see lots of clients that tell me they go for regular massages or acupuncture but the pain always comes back. Is it a problem in the shoulder and arm or is it from somewhere else?
What is the shoulder?
Our shoulder is made up of our upper arm, our shoulder blade and our upper chest. This has lots of muscles, bones, ligaments and nerves in the area. When we have proper posture and a healthy strength of muscles then the parts of the shoulder maintain a healthy balance. However, if we have weaker muscles or bad posture then some of the parts can get too close and rub together, such as the muscles. This can irritate them and cause pain.
How is the neck linked to the shoulder and arm?
When we have poor posture this also leads to our neck moving further forward, which put pressure on the nerves that leave the neck. These nerves are extremely important as they supply information to the head, neck, shoulder, arm, wrist hand and the fingers! The top part of the neck directly connects to the brain so if the pressure increases here it can affect all the nerves and information passing to the whole body! So why does massage feel better?
“When we have spinal misalignments, the muscles surrounding where the nerve exits can tense up and spasm. This is our bodies loving way to protect us, but it causes us pain. Massage will relax the muscle, but it won’t take the pressure off the nerves. If the muscles are protecting the nerves this can actually make things worse!”
Therefore if the neck isn’t working well it can cause problems all the way down to the fingertips, and this won’t truly change with just massage or acupuncture. These other treatments are useful once the nerves are flowing more freely.
How can Chiropractic help?
As a Chiropractor I endeavour to find the real cause of your problem, whether this is due to a problem in the shoulder, the neck or potentially both! Physical tests will be done to confirm where the problem is, and if you are a Chiropractic candidate we still start treatment.
Call us today to find out how we can help you with your shoulder and arm pain so you can live life to the fullest.

Annapolis, MD– During an appearance on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” Governor Larry Hogan today discussed Maryland’s response to the COVID-19 Omicron outbreak and the current state of the Republican Party in America.
On COVID-19 in Maryland:
“We are doing much, much better than a few weeks ago with the Omicron surge peaking in our state and everywhere else across the country, but we have taken many steps to try and turn the tide , and now we have the largest drop in hospitalizations of the 50 states.
“We have the lowest case rate in America, of any state in the country, and so that’s very encouraging, but that’s not behind us. We’re moving in the right direction, and we’re not going to give up the fight, but it’s looking much better than when we had very serious runs on our hospitals and overloaded our healthcare workers and too many people were falling sick. So we are going in the right direction.
“We had almost reached the peak of the whole crisis, but our state is one of the most vaccinated in America. We’re 94.4% vaccinated with at least one dose, and we’re 5th best in the nation for mask compliance with no statewide mask mandate, but people are just doing what they want. ‘it is necessary and follow the very clear advice that we ‘ that I have been giving for two years.
Why Republican Governors Succeed in Blue States:
“Successful politics is about addition and multiplication, not subtraction and division, and so we were able to win in a blue state by appealing not only to the Republican base, but also independents and suburban women. and getting 35% of the black vote, winning over Asians and Hispanics is a formula for success nationwide.
“Donald Trump’s formula was we lost the White House, we lost the Senate, we lost the House, we lost the governors, and we lost the state legislatures. It’s not a winning formula by shrinking the base and shrinking the tent.


Ed Asner, Executive Director of the Lawyers’ Committee for 9/11 Inquiry, is celebrating an important step towards 9/11 truth and justice.
According to Asner and the Committee, U.S. Attorney Geoffrey Berman has announced that the Department of Justice will comply with 18 USC Section 3332 regarding the Lawyers’ Committee’s Petition. That means that a Special Grand Jury should soon be seated to launch an independent investigation of the unsolved crimes of September 11, 2001, beginning with the apparent explosive demolition of the World Trade Center complex including its three skyscrapers.
Asner, one of the biggest TV stars in US history, announced: “The U.S. Attorney’s decision to comply with the Special Grand Jury Statute regarding our petitions is an important step towards greater transparency and accountability regarding the tragic events of 9/11.”
From the Lawyers’ Committee press release:
The U.S. Attorney, in his November 7, 2018 letter to the Lawyers’ Committee, stated: “We have received and reviewed The Lawyers’ Committee for 9/11 Inquiry, Inc.’s submissions of April 10 and July 30, 2018. We will comply with the provisions of 18 U.S.C. § 3332 as they relate to your submissions” (emphasis added). (The U.S. Attorney’s letter is attached. It is also available at https://lawyerscommitteefor9-11inquiry.org/7-nov-2018-u-s-attorney-geoffrey-berman-will-comply-with-18-usc-section-3332/)
The U.S. Attorney’s letter does not spell out the steps that will be taken to comply, but 18 U.S.C. § 3332 is clear as to what these steps must be. This law states: “[a]ny such [United States] attorney receiving information concerning such an alleged offense from any other person shall, if requested by such other person, inform the [Special] grand jury of such alleged offense, the identity of such other person, and such attorney’s action or recommendation.” This law also states that “(a) It shall be the duty of each such [special] grand jury impaneled within any judicial district to inquire into offenses against the criminal laws of the United States alleged to have been committed within that district.”
This letter from the U.S. Attorney was signed by Michael Ferrara and Ilan Graff, Chiefs, Terrorism and International Narcotics Unit. On November 24, 2018, the Lawyers’ Committee replied, thanking the U.S. Attorney and expressing support for a thorough inquiry into the crimes reported in the Lawyers’ Committee’s petitions.
The Lawyers’ Committee’s April 10th 52-page original Petition was accompanied by 57 exhibits(https://lawyerscommitteefor9-11inquiry.org/lc-doj-grand-jury-petition/) and presented extensive evidence that explosives were used to destroy three WTC buildings. That evidence included independent scientific laboratory analysis of WTC dust samples showing the presence of high-tech explosives and/or incendiaries; numerous first-hand reports by First Responders of explosions at the WTC on 9/11; expert analysis of seismic evidence that explosions occurred at the WTC towers on 9/11 prior to the airplane impacts and prior to the building collapses; and expert analysis by architects, engineers, and scientists concluding that the rapid onset symmetrical near-free-fall acceleration collapse of three WTC high rise buildings on 9/11 exhibited the key characteristics of controlled demolition. The Lawyers’ Committee’s July 30th Amended Petition addresses several additional federal crimes beyond the federal bombing crime addressed in the original Petition. The Lawyers’ Committee concluded in the petitions that explosive and incendiary devices preplaced at the WTC were detonated causing the complete collapse of the WTC Twin Towers on 9/11 and increasing the tragic loss of life.

Very few people here in the US and overseas believe in the conclusion reached by the committee established to investigate 9/11. There are so many questions regarding the failure of the intelligence services to discover the plot and answer many of the unanswered question regarding the attack on the Pentagon. We went to war on Iraq based on lies and very questionable evidence of WMD. Howe can we truely believe in our governing institutions when they lie to the American people?
His fame won’t save him. Look what happened to Joan Rivers after she outted Michelle Obama.
This will be interesting to watch, especially the means used to disprove and discredit the evidence, and the witnesses. How many witnesses will die unusually? Are there too many? As I think about I; how will the perpetrators defend, it is my guess the weakest part of the prosecution is the grand jury itself. After the judge does his job, confusing and obfuscating law and fact, the jury will probably return what’s called a no bill, with some cockamamie reason. This could be the final nail in the 911 coffin. Or, up will again be up, and down, down, and justice will be served.
Will this be a secret grand jury?
Hi O Silver … stein. Is that a light I see, way out there in the darkness. What is happening? There’s a long line a prisoners, and they’re being lead to the gallows. Is that Dick Cheney? Holy shit it is. Who else? I don’t know, we’re still too far away, I can’t make them out. But there’s a lot of them.
Really, I am irritated and disappointed with this article. How stupid can you be ? Do a google search for Ed Asner. His parents are Russian Jews, so probably Askenazi. Even as Mr. Asner is in good-faith, I would not accept his presidency on a 9/11 committee. Chances are that he functions as a gatekeeper for the discourse on 9/11. Everyone with two brain cells ought to know that Israel and Saudi Arabia are impicated in 9/11. What can you expect from him ?
Good news. Maybe we’ll get some truth out in the public domain.
Nitpick: There is no single US Attorney. This should be made much clearer. These are multiple positions across the country, representatives of the US federal government in the various federal district courts. They are part of the Department of Justice (DOJ) headed by the US Attorney General (formerly Jeff Sessions).
The pdf document linked to here was on letterhead from the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York.
I strongly encourage people to donate to these guys, it is a not for profit and needs to stay funded.
Follow the links and they have a donate button at the bottom of the page.
We Veterans just want the Truth. We want to know why 911 was never investigated. Why is so much of it still classified?
According to the 1st Law of Thermodynamics there was NOT enough time for the structural steel, by conduction, to creep (slow plastic deformation) or to reach failure temperature. And that is ignoring the 2″ of fireproofing that was applied during building construction.
And think of this obscenity: Israel Lover Liar Trump worships Israel the criminals responsible for 9/11/01! The investigations have already been completed decades ago. We now need arrests and public trials not continuing secret cover ups by our totally corrupt government. Some of the perps are even in their 90’s now! What a reprehensible disgrace this country has become.
As We move toward Truth the media noose tightens. These should be interesting times…
Check out Gordon and Chet’s holiday specials if you haven’t already.
This is nothing but pro forma by our “Injustice Department” which is stacked with lying lawyers who have delayed now for 17 plus years on this scam on America by Israel aided and abetted by Bush, Cheney and some very corrupt four star generals who did not lift a finger to defend our nation that day in patent violation of their meaningless oaths of office. Many in our Congress are dual citizens with Israel. What a disgrace and conflict of interest. How come our Injustice Department is not investigating them?
Justice delayed is justice denied but nothing ever changes in the corrupt secret cesspool government of America today. The inmates have taken over the asylum.
HOW many of the US personnel responsible were masons? the jews little helpers.

NEW DELHI: In what may be seen as a positive development for the Indian IT
sector, tech-giant IBM
has backed the House version of the US Immigration Bill
, reported ET Now. The House version, unlike the Senate version does not have the outplacement clause, which was being viewed as detrimental for the Indian IT sector.
Under the Senate proposed US Immigration Bill, the outplacement clause does not allow IT companies to deploy more than a certain percentage of their employees onsite. This in turn would have forced IT companies to change their business model. According to ET Now, IBM has written a letter to the House Judiciary Committee expressing and offering their support for the Bill.
IBM had earlier supported the outplacement clause, reported the channel. In its note JP Morgan has cited two possible reasons for a change in stance by IBM namely; the Indian government putting on hold the preferred market policy and a backlash which the company faced from its own clients.
According to ET Now, JP Morgan in a note has said that the development is a positive one, which might imply that the final version of the Immigration Bill is unlikely to have harmful clauses.
The outplacement clause restricts the placement of H-1B workers
at client sites. The outplacement clause imposes significant higher filing fees on H-1B
dependent employers based on the percentage of non-immigrants employed in the company. These companies currently pay $2,500 for H1-B visa processing and an additional $1,225 for premium processing.
The bill's clause will force Indian IT companies to reduce their dependency on H-1B workers, given that it may require them to fork out higher visa fee and salaries to H-1B visa holders over their American peers with similar experience.
JP Morgan feels that Indian IT companies should localize their US hiring more, advertise their hiring efforts a lot more, establish recognition in US colleges and, perhaps invest individually and collectively (as an industry) in showing themselves to be good citizens in the US.
