Charlie and Mark discuss possible vulnerabilities into power grid in the United States, from various sources.

What would you do if there were no power... ANYWHERE?
Who would you turn to, if you couldn't contact the police, the fire department or an ambulance? Where would you go for food, if the shelves at the local Walmart were bare within a day? Where would you find clean drinking water, if there were no power to pump fresh water to your home? How would you deal with injury or disease, if the medical facilities in your area were overwhelmed with patients?

How would you defend you and your family, if there were desperate people who wanted what YOU have, and were willing to do whatever they could to take it from you?

Think it can't happen? Think again!

RNA was a key ingredient in primordial soup that led to life
http://www.sciencerecorder.com/news/scientists-rna-was-a-key-ingredient-in-primordial-soup-that-led-to-life/#ixzz2TvthxLYG

According to scientists, after billions of years during the Earth’s formation, the first living molecule formed in the newly cooled oceans between 3.8 and 3.5 billion years ago. Today, researchers from Georgia Institute of Technology are going back to the Archean Eon to discover the key ingredients that allowed life to form.

The team of researchers re-created predicted conditions on Earth that took place 3 billion years ago in effort to discover if RNA and iron were the perfect concoction to be the makers of life.

Today RNA, the sister molecule of DNA, is most known for being the messenger of genetic code. On the other hand, since the discovery of ribozymes in the 1980s—a RNAmol... more »

Oh, and why is this being done through executive order?

Due to Federal energy regulations, 8 states have deregulated their energy generation markets, taking control of these markets from corporate energy monopolies and giving it to the consumer for the first time in HISTORY.

YOU may be able to save on your home energy costs, as well as the cost of your home phone or wireless and internet services.

Pay attention to this ...

The current 115 million full-time workers cannot sustainably support the 110 million people currently drawing Social Security and Medicare/Medicaid -- and the number of retirees entering these entitlement program will rise by millions in the decade ahead.

This worker-beneficiary ratio (already 1-to-1) will only become more unsustainable as Baby Boomers retire and the forces of The End of Work erode full-time jobs

Gee, and this is the agency that's going to enforce Obamacare rules, and collect the 'taxes' that Americans will 'owe', should they not comply with Obamacare rules regarding having health insurance???

Yeah, we need to put a stop to THIS kind of crap RIGHT NOW!

So, basically, the Obama administration has created a whole generation of young people who have a college education, but can't find a job. AND, they own BILLIONS in student loans. So, we basically have whole generations of indentured servants. 

Thank you, Mr. President....

Well, maybe this new layout thingy isn't so bad afterall... once you figure it out! Try clicking your center mouse scroll wheel, and THEN pulling the mouse up or down. INSTANT SCROLL!! And, you can control the speed of the scroll by how far up or down you pull the mouse. 

Yeah, I guess I could get used to this....

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and Boston Police Commissioner Edward David shake hands after signing a Memorandum of Understanding to increase cooperation aimed at building foreign law enforcement capacity at the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C., on May 13, 2013. The Boston Police Department has a long history of promoting partnerships in both the public and private sectors to reduce violence and strengthen public safety initiatives. Plans for this new partnership predate the marathon bombings in the Secretary's hometown. [State Department photo/ Public Domain]

Yes, Ariel Castro is a scumbag who deserves to die. BUT, if HE can be charged with murder for forcing one of his victims to abort a pregnancy, why aren't ALL abortions considered murder? The wishes of the mother don't have anything to do with the final outcome, which is the destruction of a fetus. 

Simply put, charge ONE abortionist with murder, and you have to charge them ALL with murder.

The last line of the story is the most telling...

"Some observers are concerned that the firms’ improving financial results may cut the urgency among U.S. lawmakers to move ahead with substantial reform to cut the government’s outsized role in the country’s housing-finance system."

"To the analysts at S&P Capital IQ, U.S. stocks look stretched."

Gee, you THINK?? The S&P is up over 20% in the last 7 months. I'd say there's a LOT of risk in US equity markets right now. Anyone who buys into this market now is NUTS!!

Companies have curtailed layoffs, and in fact are starting to hire again, but new hires have curtailed after rising since the beginning of the year. Things are getting better in the job market, but not by much. Still, a little progress is better then no progress at all.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't it appear that the number of job openings is DOWN from the same time last year (along with new hires), while the number of job separations is UP?

Yeah, tell me again how the job market is improving....
