Trump-Tillerson Feud A Production of Mainstream Media

Media Reports Hit to Obamacare, Neglects Newly Announced Benefits
by Brian McNicoll on October 16, 2017
President Trump announced a decision to halt subsidy payments to the insurance companies in Obamacare exchanges.
Many of the media response centered on the damage that decision did to President Obama's signature legislative achievement.
"[Trump] dropped the ax with timing that could inflict maximal disruption on the Affordable Care Act enrollment season," the Washington Post wrote.
The decision constituted a "failure to lead," and a "spiteful act of vast, pointless sabotage leveled at working families and the middle class in every corner of America," Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York was quoted as saying. "This is not how the architects of the Affordable Care Act had intended the program to work," the Huffington Post reported.
But what the Washington Post did not mention and the Washington Times sidestepped is this: The subsidies are illegal.
"The Trump administration announced late Thursday that it has concluded it can no longer legally make critical Obamacare "cost sharing" payments and will cut them off," Washington Times reporter Stephen Dinan wrote.
The government paid insurance companies to help them absorb the losses from the Obamacare exchanges' sickest, most unprofitable customers. Congress wrote a provision allowing for this into the original Obamacare law, but it left it up to the annual appropriations process to actually get the money approved.
Congress never appropriated the money, but the Obama administration continued the payments, which amounted to about $7 billion this year, claiming it clearly was Congress' intent the payments be made. Members of the U.S. House of Representatives, led by then-speaker John Boehner, R.-Ohio, sued the administration for spending money without congressional approval.
A Republican-appointed federal judge in Washington, D.C., ruled in favor of the members of Congress but allowed the payments to continue until the case could be heard in the U.S. Court of Appeals. In recent days, U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions issued a ruling the plaintiffs in the case likely would prevail, so the administration should eliminate the payments. Trump formalized that with his announcement last Thursday.
Mainstream media was not buying it. It will roil markets, they said. It will increase premiums, chase companies out of the market and perhaps create shortages.
The stories also noted that insurers and relevant government agencies had factored the subsidies into their rate plans for the coming year. Congress, which also knew the court case against the payments likely would prevail, had begun bipartisan efforts to address the issue as well. And, as was noted in the Huffington Post, "The Affordable Care Act has been a fragile program from the beginning."
None took into account the positive impact of the other reforms Trump announced. Experts said that the plan to allow more association plans, in which organizations, such as churches and non-profits, can band together to purchase group insurance, could save consumers money by eliminating the bells and whistles the Obama administration insisted the plans carry.
He also ordered changes to regulations governing short-term policies to lengthen the time they could be in effect from three months to a year and ordered regulations to be reformed so that these and the association plans can be sold across state lines – a change that could create larger risk pools, lower premiums and strengthen the industry considerably.
Trump got little public praise for what could be the most beneficial and momentous week in the history of U.S. health insurance policy. Practicality was restored with the announcement about the associated health plans, temporary health plans and, potentially most exciting, the ability to sell those plans across state lines.
And law and order were re-established on Capitol Hill.
"Under our Constitution, the power of the purse belongs to Congress, not the executive branch," House Speaker Paul Ryan said. "Today's decision by the Trump administration to tend the appeal of that ruling preserves a monumental affirmation of Congress' authority and the separation of powers."

Toyota I.D. codes (after 1977).
The code starting with "JT2RA42" is the VIN. We are not interested in it.
We are interested in the "MODEL" code.
A lot of this information came from Arvin's page on Jose's All Wheel Motion Celica GT-4 site.
Cars made by Australian Motor Industries often miss large portions of these codes.
These codes seem to have trouble with Hiace (Tarago, Liteace, Townace, Serena, …), Hilux (4Runner) and Landcruiser (Prado) vehicles. If you have trouble with these vehicles then email me your code and I will see what I can do.
Americans usually confuse the VIN with the model code because the VIN is the only number used by their government and insurance companies.
Most other places use the body serial number for unique identification.
Since the USA is the largest market, eventually the VIN was added for the rest of the world in the mid 1980's but Toyota still uses the model code for determining which features your car has.
Sometimes there is a single letter at the front (eg "A-", "B-", …).
This is for Japanese spec cars only.
Each letter corresponds to compliance with a certain year's anti-pollution laws.
Most I.D. codes start with the letter(s) for the engine family.
sometimes merging with the first letter of the chassis code to make C.
The second letter is the platform type.
The Carina was merged with the Corona in mid 1982.(ST140).
The Celica was merged with the Corona in mid 1985 (ST160).
The Corona Mark II is different to the standard Corona.
The next 2 or 3 numbers are the model code.
Each new generation usually adds 20 to the old model code to get the new model code.
Wide bodied models have a "H" just before the dash.
First code after the dash is the model type based on the same platform.
This code may be missing if this platform is not shared with any other model.
U 4 door van without rear seats ?
If this code is missing then it is probably a model sold in Japan.
Q Australia. 'A' or 'B' used if made by Australian Motor Industries.
This code is only present when multiple suspension types are available.
This code is only present for cars made by Australian Motor Industries.

Elon Musk rebuffed in bid to move Tesla tweet trial to Texas

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A federal judge on Friday rejected Tesla CEO Elon Musk's bid to move or delay a trial over a misleading tweet about a potential buyout of the electric automaker, setting the stage for the mercurial billionaire to be thrust into a legal drama amid the turmoil of his Twitter takeover.
The decision by U.S. District Judge Edward Chen came during a hearing held in San Francisco federal court to go over the final details of a trial scheduled to begin Tuesday with jury selection.
Musk's attorneys last week asked Chen to transfer the trial to a federal court in Texas, where Tesla moves its headquarters in 2021, arguing that negative coverage of Musk since his $44 billion purchase of Twitter in October had poisoned the jury pool in the San Francisco Bay Area.
But Chen brushed aside those concerns Friday, and expressed confidence that a panel of impartial jurors could be drawn from a region populated by millions of people. He also noted that a jury was pulled together for trial in the highly publicized criminal trial of former Theranos CEO Elizabeth Holmes, whose transformation from a Silicon Valley star to accused swindler was the subject of an HBO documentary and book before those proceedings began in nearby San Jose, California.
Holmes, 38, is now facing more than 11 years in federal prison of being convicted of investor fraud and conspiracy.
Musk's upcoming trial revolves around a civil lawsuit brought on behalf of Tesla shareholders who allege they were duped by a n Aug. 7, 2018 tweet in which he indicated he had lined up financing for a Tesla buyout — a deal that never materialized and resulted in a $ 40 million settlement with U.S. securities regulators.
Chen already has determined that Musk's buyout tweet was false, leaving it to a jury to decide whether he acted recklessly by posting it and whether it caused financial harm to Tesla shareholders. After adjusting for two stock splits made since 2018, Tesla's shares are now worth nearly six times more than at the time of Musk's tweets about the bogus buyout.
Tesla's stock was even worth even more before Musk decided to buy Twitter for a price that even he conceded was far more than the company was worth. Tesla's shares, currently hovering around $120, have lost nearly half their value since Musk took control of Twitter, partially affecting investor concerns that he is spending too much time running privately held Twitter instead of focusing at the automaker responsible for most of his fame and wealth at a time it's facing tougher competition.
Musk, 51, has said he will step down as Twitter's CEO as soon as he can find a replacement, but has not set a timetable for handing off the reins. To help reduce Twitter's losses and reduce the massive debt stemming from the purchase, Musk has laid off about half of that company's staff and is facing allegations of refusing to pay the rent at some offices.
Media coverage of mass layoffs and other cutbacks at Twitter were one of the main reasons that Musk's lawyer, Alex Spiro, argued for the trial to be moved or at least delayed until the backlash to the harsh measures died down.
But the lawyers representing Tesla shareholders in the case argued Musk only has himself to blame for any negative perceptions, largely because of his frequent activity on Twitter, the social media platform that he now owns and runs.
"For better or worse, Musk is a celebrity who garners attention from the media around the globe," the shareholders' attorneys wrote in their 19-page opposition to the transfer request. "His footprint on Twitter alone is partially to blame for that. If 'negative' attention was all that was required to disqualify a jury pool, Musk would effectively be untriable before a jury given his knack for attracting 'negative" coverage."
After sifting through about 200 juror questionnaires submitted earlier this week, Spiro argued many of them were peppered with derogatory remarks about Musk that underscored how difficult it will be for him to get a fair trial.
Some of those unflattering remarks surfaced during Friday's hearing as Chen pored through the questionnaires in preparation for Tuesday's jury selection. The judge disqualified jurors who he said had variously described Musk as an "idiot" and a "buffoon."

Malcolm Howard is a double Olympic medallist. The Victoria, BC native followed up his gold-medal winning performance with the men's eight crew at the Beijing 2008 Games by capturing silver in the same boat at the London 2012 Games.
Howard spent two years as a single sculler after the Beijing Games. He is a five-time World Championship medallist winning one gold (2007), two silver (2004, 2009) and one bronze (2011). Competing in three World Junior Championships, Howard won a bronze medal in 2001 in the coxless fours (and finished eighth in 2000 in the eight and 13th in 1999 in coxed fours).
Born and raised in Victoria, he graduated from Harvard University where he garnered a coveted spot on the Harvard rowing team and graduated with a degree in Biology. He was undefeated against intercollegiate competition in three years as a member of Harvard's varsity eight, helping the crew to three straight national championships.


Former jump jockey David O'Meara has made rapid strides since switching to training in 2010.
He started out as an amateur rider and partnered Bells Life to victory in the Fox Hunters' Chase over the Grand National fences at Aintree in 2000. As a professional, the best horse he rode was Turgeonev.
His training career only began in June 2010, when he took over the licence from James Hetherton at Arthington Barn Stables in Nawton, North Yorkshire. He made an immediate impression, training 24 winners by the end of the year.
He made an impact in the QIPCO British Champions Series in 2011 when Blue Bajan finished second behind Duncan in the Emirates Airline Yorkshire Cup, the first race in the Long Distance category.
O'Meara's career continued to progress onwards and upwards in 2012. His best performer that year was Penitent, who won the Listed Doncaster Mile and the Group 2 bet365 Mile at Sandown Park before giving his trainer a first QIPCO British Champions Series success when taking the Nayef Joel Stakes at Newmarket on September 28 though he could only finish fourth in the race in 2013 on unsuitably fast ground.
He landed his first Group 1 race when G Force landed the Betfred Sprint Cup, another QIPCO British Champions Series victory, and followed that with victory in the Shadwell Joel Stakes courtesy of Custom Cut who has won five races in a row.
In 2015, he also landed the Group 1 Qipco Falmouth Stakes courtesy of the four-year-old filly Amazing Maria, who had joined his yard from Ed Dunlop at the beginning of that season.

China just dropped an absolute bombshell, but it was almost entirely ignored by the mainstream media in the United States.
The central bank of China has decided that it is "no longer in China's favor to accumulate foreign-exchange reserves". During the third quarter of 2013, China's foreign-exchange reserves were valued at approximately $3.66 trillion.
And of course the biggest chunk of that was made up of U.S. dollars. For years, China has been accumulating dollars and working hard to keep the value of the dollar up and the value of the yuan down. One of the goals has been to make Chinese products less expensive in the international marketplace.
But now China has announced that the time has come for it to stop stockpiling U.S. dollars. And if that does indeed turn out to be the case, than many U.S. analysts are suggesting that China could also soon stop buying any more U.S. debt. Needless to say, all of this would be very bad for the United States.
Well, the truth is that when you flip those products over you will find that almost all of them have been made outside of the United States. In fact, the words "made in China" are probably the most common words in your entire household if you are anything like the typical American.
"It's no longer in China's favor to accumulate foreign-exchange reserves," Yi Gang, a deputy governor at the central bank, said in a speech organized by China Economists 50 Forum at Tsinghua University yesterday.
The monetary authority will "basically" end normal intervention in the currency market and broaden the yuan's daily trading range, Governor Zhou Xiaochuan wrote in an article in a guidebook explaining reforms outlined last week following a Communist Party meeting. Neither Yi nor Zhou gave a timeframe for any changes.
It isn't going to happen overnight, but the value of the U.S. dollar is going to start to go down, and all of that cheap stuff that you are used to buying at Wal-Mart and the dollar store is going to become a lot more expensive.
But of even more importance is what this latest move by China could mean for U.S. government debt. As most Americans have heard, we are heavily dependent on foreign nations such as China lending us money.
Right now, China owns nearly 1.3 trillion dollars of our debt.
Analysts see this as the PBoC hinting that it will let its currency fluctuate, without intervention, thus negating the need for holding large reserves of the dollar.
And if the dollar is no longer needed, then it could look to curb its purchases of dollar-denominated assets like U.S. Treasuries.
"Together, with the Federal Reserve tapering its bond purchases, it has the potential to add to the bearish long-term outlook on U.S. Treasuries."
In a previous article entitled "How China Can Cause The Death of The Dollar and The Entire U.S. Financial System", I described how China could single-handedly cause immense devastation to the U.S. economy.
And just this week there was another major announcement which indicates that China is getting ready to make a major move against the U.S. dollar.
China, which overtook the United States as the world's top oil importer in September, hopes the contract will become a benchmark in Asia and has said it would allow foreign investors to trade in the contract without setting up a local subsidiary.
But even I didn't think that we would see anything like this so quickly.
Unfortunately, there isn't much that can be done about any of this at this point.
When it comes to economics, China has been playing chess while the United States has been playing checkers. And now decades of very, very foolish decisions are starting to catch up with us.

AND $wpdb->postmeta.meta_value = $passport_num

This part is not working. how can I change it?
2nd question,
<div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">

<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>">
  <?php the_title(); ?>

  <?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?>

  <?php comments_popup_link('No Comments', '1 Comment ', '% Comments '); ?>

    NO RESULT

I need to get a term from a taxonomy ("visa_processing") how can I get the term which is related with this post?
3rd question.
I put like this and got result. but I need to send it to next page as "POST" (we don't want to show them on URL with the taxonomy (term).
thanks for your time.

A: For 1st question
$args = array(
  'post_type' => 'us_visa',
  'posts_per_page' => -1,
  'orderby' => 'post_date',
  'order' => 'DESC',
  'meta_query' => array(
     array(
       'key' => '_Passport',
       'value' => $passport_num,
     )
   )
);

$query = new WP_Query( $args );

See Custom Field Parameters of WP_Query on Codex

For 2nd question, inside the loop use
<?php the_terms( get_the_ID(), 'visa_processing', '
', ' / ', '
') ?>

See the_terms docs on Codex

Sorry, I don't understand the 3rd Question.

More on the Raid
Posted on November 5, 2008 by Rob
I'm sticking to my theory about the US raid on Syria. Middle East Times has an article on the latest:
Although the al-Qaida suspect may have been killed, the death of Syrian civilians in the attack is what provoked Damascus's anger, perhaps more than the fact that the U.S. forces penetrated Syrian territories, according to Arab commentators, who say that this was not the first time U.S. troops entered Syrian territory to chase al-Qaida suspects…….
U.S. administration officials in Washington are leaking that Damascus not only approved the raid in Sukkariyeh, but also cooperated with Syrian intelligence services ahead of the operation. According to London's Sunday Times of Nov. 2, the Syrians had "agreed to turn a blind eye to a supposedly quiet 'snatch and grab' raid," but "could not keep the lid on a firefight in which so many people had died."
The paper quoted an unidentified Washington source as saying that Syrian intelligence tipped off the Americans about the whereabouts of the purported targeted al-Qaida operative, known as Abu Ghadiyah, and that the U.S. special force unit was supposed to kidnap him and take him to Iraq.
The British paper's source said the Americans "regularly communicate with the Syrians through a back channel that runs through Syria's air force intelligence," and quoted him as praising Syrian intelligence cooperation immediately after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the United States as "remarkable."
The pieces fit the puzzle.

Over at Abu Muqawama they think that Odierno didn't know about it or at least didn't have any say in it. And if the White House got approval from Syria, told Special Forces to do it, and didn't even listen to Odierno who theoretically controls the US military in Iraq, that's really incredible. Not necessarily unbelievable, it would just show that something's seriously screwed up in how the chain of command stuff is going on.

i think maybe the whole thing is getting blown out of proportion by the Syrian government for their own political purposes
its not the first time US soldiers crossed the border based on what ive read in the papers. so if this is something that has happened before maybe its not that big of a deal that Odierno has to know about it. I dont know- maybe it is.
another thing, ive read both Asharq Al Awsat and Al-Hayat every day since the raid and im not seeing decisive statements from the Syrians refuting the leaks by the americans about coop and both papers have the contacts to at least make phone calls to the people on the syrian side who could give more info. why arent they doing that?
also, the story is slowly fading and fading onto the back page and more. and now with the elections it will probably be removed from anyone's mind permanently. dont you think that if it was truly an unprovokved and unprecedented attack that it wouldnt slip so easily?

Thanks to all for the great responses to last week's column. With all the sound and fury recently about economic development, and how we need to be prepared to put up vast sums of taxpayer dollars to attract good local jobs, I think it is important to offer an example of job creation done in a more traditional way. Not to say that incentives don't have a place, but for me, the greatest incentives for entrepreneurs to locate or relocate to Beaufort County are our quality of life, our educational assets, and the fact that so many people are moving here and bringing their skills and education with them. With that in mind, we may need to begin retooling or expanding the scope of our economic development efforts.
Last week, I promised to update the educational situation in Jasper County. I am happy to say that there is good news to report.
You may recall that Senator Pinckney (D-Jasper Co.), in the waning hours of the last session, brought forth a redistricting plan for the Jasper School Board. His plan was also encased in a lawsuit by the ACLU that said the current districts violated the "one man, one vote" standard of the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment. When viewed by the rest of the Jasper legislative delegation, the plan also seemed deeply political and a vivid example of extreme gerrymandering. What we vehemently disagreed with was also the fact that it was done with zero input from the folks who will have to live with the consequences of the plan.
Representative Weston Newton and I derailed the Pinckney plan in the House, and requested that the House of Representatives intervene in the suit. We agreed the districts were malapportioned, but also felt that public input was critical to the drawing of new districts, rather than one person drawing the map and having the ACLU impose it through the courts. In our view, the most salutary part of any redistricting effort is hearing from the public. The Pinckney plan failed in that regard.
The result of the intervention of the legal staff of the House of Representatives was to place the ACLU suit before U.S. District Judge Richard Gergel for review. He granted the ACLU motion that the current districts were malapportioned. We agreed. Our plan was to allow the General Assembly to fulfill its constitutional mandate by drawing the districts. If we could not, then the courts could step in. He also enjoined the November elections until a new map was approved. Judge Gergel agreed with us that public hearings were crucial to the process. If this were a game of pool, you could say we ran the table.
As if to place an exclamation point on the public input portion of the matter, an incident occurred as Rep. Newton and I attended the Jasper School Board meeting of 9 Sept. At a packed meeting, the chairperson of the board, Ms. Bertie Riley, ordered the Jasper Sheriff's Deputies to remove a resident for clapping for a comment the chairperson found disrespectful. Rep. Newton and I stood to defend the right of the resident to clap for whomever she pleased. The chairperson chose to also have deputies remove Rep. Newton and myself as well. Not only was she out of line, her egregious overreach and arrogance seemed to break the spell. There will be new districts, new elections, and I imagine there will be a host of new candidates. The era of failure after failure is over. The politics of the few, ill serving the many is done. This is the new beginning.

"The purpose of art is to wash away the dust of everyday life from our souls", according to Pablo Picasso.
Art, in its many forms, can move and inspire us at all stages of life. It captures emotion, passion and energy; its focus can range from recreational to therapeutic, and it requires not only imagination and skill on the part of the creator, but also an appreciation for beauty on the part of its devotees.
In Washington County, we are fortunate to have access to various opportunities to participate and benefit from art. And at the Washington County Community Foundation, we are grateful to our many donors who have provided us with the financial resources necessary to support an array of wonderful local arts programs.
Music is recognized as one of the universal cultural aspects of all human societies and, unsurprisingly, it is an area of particular interest to WCCF donors. For example, the Zoog Family Music Fund, the DiSalle Music Fund, and the Kenneth & Mary Baker Charitable Fund all support the appreciation of music due to family ties.
Patron of the arts Roy Zoog remarked, "My late wife and her sister were both violinists… and from the time my son could hold a drumstick in his hand, he was a drummer. Jon Zoog played in the Peters Township drum line as a teenager, and today he is a professional musician with a successful company, Dallas Drum. His instruments are revered by some of the biggest names in the music industry.
Likewise, the DiSalle family is passionate about the Washington Symphonic Orchestra, a charity that has been committed to providing accessible and quality musical performances for decades. A musician himself, John DiSalle plays both saxophone and clarinet, performing regularly in local venues.
Kenneth Baker and his son, Dan, are music lovers and active volunteers of the Washington Jazz Society. Although he is familiar with jazz, Dan is a talented local guitarist who has taught many students the basics of various styles and genres.
A few years ago, a capacity building grant of $ 50,000 was awarded to the Washington Jazz Society to implement its AMP (Afterschool Music Program) for disadvantaged youth as well as an instrument retraining program. AMP has served students from across the county in districts such as Bentworth, Bethlehem-Center, Canon-McMillan, Trinity, and Washington.
In Charleroi, the Mon Valley Academy for the Arts offers music lessons, as well as other artistic and cultural programs, for students of all ages. Last year, the foundation supported the purchase of multimedia equipment for its junior performing group Twin Coaches with an award from the Kenneth & Mary Baker Charitable Fund.
Captivating theatrical performances are also available throughout the county through charities such as the Washington Community Theater, the Old Schoolhouse Players, and the Little Lake Theater. Each offers the opportunity for community members to enjoy a show or even be part of it.
As a family that has always cherished time spent together watching and performing in different productions, the Hitchons wanted to honor their collective love of art and music through a WCCF fund. As a result, the Lawrence & Marjorie Hitchon Fund was designed to support music and theater programs in Washington County. He will soon be making his first distribution.
Other WCCF funds focus on the importance of arts education. The Miss Judy Hopson Fund was established to celebrate the legacy of this beloved educator with unlimited energy through grants to arts programs that serve youth. Miss Judy believed that all art forms have the power to improve the lives of children, regardless of their socioeconomic status.
And of course, the WCCF is also home to the Arts Fund, which has awarded a total of $ 100,000 to local arts and culture programs. Its parameters are quite broad. Among the fund's prizes is a $ 10,000 grant to the LeMoyne Community Center, which allowed students to create beautiful quilts based on their lessons on the Underground Railroad. As one of WCCF's five mutual funds, the Arts Fund offers anyone the opportunity to help support the rich and vibrant culture of Washington County.
If your soul needs a little dust, explore some of the offerings from our local art community. Or, you could support their good work with your financial donation. Arts organizations have been seriously affected by the pandemic, and it is only thanks to the generosity of patrons that they will be able to ensure that the "show will continue".

When it first launched, The Lowry was the first mover to the newly developed Salford Quays. Since then the area has taken off, and Media City has emerged and brought massive footfall to the Quays.
As a result, The Lowry looked to reconfigure its F&B offer to attract local businesses as well as theatregoers. CBFS was engaged to help with space planning and revisions to the offer and its recommendations are currently being implemented.

(Denver Post, Feb. 3) Firearms are dangerous. When learning to use a rifle in boyhood, and later when training with a handgun, I was drilled hard on this. Instructors barked at my least show of carelessness. But the force of government and political power is more dangerous than any gun. Our public officials are trustees over the organized monopoly of legitimate violence in this country. Under due process of law, they hold the dispensation of life and death over us all. How chilling if this fearsome power were to be used carelessly. Unfortunately, instances of its careless use are all around us, often on a massive scale and with disastrous consequences. That's why in these United States we live not only under laws – in which the government tells the people what they may and may not do – but also under constitutions, in which the people tell the government what it may and may not do.
Tragic? Only if we misunderstand rights as claims on other people. The modern bureaucratic state establishes such claims all the time, obligating one group as givers and privileging another as takers. Society can sustain a certain amount of this without going broke or coming to blows, and opinions differ on how close we are. But if words mean anything, such a process is not the creation of rights. God alone can do that.
Rights, in the American political tradition, mean those equal, natural, inherent endowments of an individual's very being which no one else – especially government – may arbitrarily take from him. "Negative liberties," Obama's term, is correct is that rights are a stern "Thou shalt not" to a grasping, meddling, paternalistic, power-hungry Caesar.
That's true even when Caesar is cloaked in good intentions and a democratic majority. So the federal Bill of Rights, ten amendments to our U.S. Constitution, and the Colorado Bill of Rights, 31 sections of our state constitution, ban piled upon ban specifying what government "can't do to you," are a free people's best friend.
Now come Gov. Hickenlooper and his legislative allies, with their well-meaning proposals to, in some degree, disarm law-abiding Coloradans – supposedly in exchange for new assurances of what government "must do on your behalf" (to quote the President one last time). Don't they recognize how much Section 13 ties their hands? They need to.

Enhancing positive mood in older adults: implications for vaccine effectiveness
Carlisle, Sophie (2022) Enhancing positive mood in older adults: implications for vaccine effectiveness. PhD thesis, University of Nottingham.
PDF (Minor corrections addressed) (Thesis - as examined) - Requires a PDF viewer such as GSview, Xpdf or Adobe Acrobat Reader

The influenza vaccine is less effective in older adults compared to their younger counterparts. At the same time, this population is more susceptible to contracting influenza, with more severe consequences, including higher rates of complications, hospitalisations, and deaths. There is an abundance of evidence demonstrating how psychological factors, such as stress, can influence and modulate immune function, including response to vaccinations. Recent work has extended this to other psychological factors, suggesting that mood, or affect, may also be linked to vaccine response, however the evidence here is much more limited. This thesis presents three inter-related pieces of research, which sought to build on this evidence base and contribute to our current understanding of the influence of mood on vaccinations. The ultimate aim of this research was to develop an intervention to enhance positive mood, with a view to enhancing the effectiveness of the influenza vaccination in the older adult population.
First, the evidence surrounding the effectiveness of using participant-driven choice in interventions compared to 'no-choice' interventions was systematically reviewed. This review sought to investigate whether the integration of participant choice within an existing, previously trialled, positive mood intervention would maximise mood enhancement and thus the potential to enhance vaccine-specific antibody levels. The review found that whilst choice-interventions led to less drop-out and greater adherence, evidence for mood-related outcomes was unclear and warranted further investigation.
Second, a randomised controlled clinical study (n=654) was conducted to investigate the effectiveness of the previously trialled fixed-content positive mood intervention, a new choice-based intervention, and usual care, in terms of enhancing positive mood. Vaccine response at four-weeks post-vaccination was assessed as a secondary outcome. Results showed that both the fixed-content and choice-based interventions significantly improved mood compared to usual care, however there were no significant differences between the two interventions. There were no significant differences between groups in terms of antibody levels at four weeks post-vaccination.
Finally, a qualitative study using a thematic-content hybrid analysis approach was carried out with a selection of participants from the randomised trial, to assess participants' perceptions of how the intervention may or may not have worked, and to identify ways in which both the intervention and study experience as a whole could be improved for a future trial implementing the optimised intervention. Analysis revealed that both interventions, as well as the overall study experience, were liked by participants, indicating that further optimisation may not be necessary. Additionally, several potential mechanisms underlying the relationship between the interventions and mood were identified.
The research presented in this thesis has several important implications. Firstly, that the use of choice should be considered where there is concern regarding drop-out or adherence, but may not be more effective than no-choice interventions in enhancing mood. Secondly, that brief positive mood interventions are effective in enhancing positive mood in older adults in a primary care setting. Future work is required to evaluate their impact on immune outcomes including mechanistic work to understand the relationship between mood and immunity, and a large scale trial, with immune response as the primary outcome.

I'm someone who is not rash to judge. I try not to correct the grammar of people on the Internet. Especially the ones on Facebook. You know that image that's frequently shared? The one that says, "I'm silently correcting your grammar"? That's me.
I can't decide what makes me flinch more–that the word is used at all, or that it's worn as a label and with pride.
Because being any sort of nazi is nothing to be proud of. I'm not quite sure when it became a simple word. Is it a noun? An adjective? What, exactly?
So this word I see used so freely? I do not think it means what you think it means.
I have a request for everyone out there. For you, your friends, my friends, neighbors, loved ones: Let's stop tossing the word nazi around, shall we?
I know, I know. Free speech, Sure. It's your prerogative. But I don't like it.
And yes, yes, "Seinfeld" did it. The whole Soup Nazi schpiel. And I guess I laughed. Maybe I didn't know better to be upset by it then. Maybe I thought the same as everyone else. Something simple like, OK, it's weird–but it's on television. Jerry Seinfeld is Jewish, isn't he? It must be ever-so-slightly funny.
READ: Does Amazon Have a Nazi Problem?
It's not funny. Not at all.
It's not a word you should use.
So my apologies if this makes you feel a little bit guilty. And forgive me if this ticks you off. Because of course I'm not intending to upset you any more than you're trying to upset me. But when you use that word–that's exactly what you do.
Enough is enough. So please, don't use it.
You're not, nor will you ever be (I so hope) a true Nazi. Ever. And the people you might be referring to when you use it? Neither will they.
It takes away from the word when you use it so freely. There is one meaning and one meaning only that matters for that word. And you should think of it the next time you're ready to throw it out there.
Think of those people who suffered. Lost so very much. And shelve the word. We live in America. There are so many other words out there you could choose. Consider doing so.
Your Jewish friend thanks you.

Justia › US Law › US Case Law › US Supreme Court › Volume 154 › Smith v. Washington Gaslight Co.
Smith v. Washington Gaslight Co., 154 U.S. 559 (1889)
Smith v. Washington Gaslight Company
Decided March 1, 1889
The appellant has failed to prove the renewal of his contract with the appellee, which alleged renewal is the foundation of the remedy sought for by his bill.
The case is stated in the opinion.
APPEAL FROM THE SUPREME COURT
OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA
MR. CHIEF JUSTICE CHASE delivered the opinion of the Court.
This is a suit in equity to enforce the specific performance of a contract for the delivery of gas tar and to obtain compensation in damages for partial nonperformance.
The alleged contract was for the delivery of all the tar made by the company and not wanted by it for a specified purpose, from time to time, as made and called for by the contractor, during the term of five years, and for the renewal of the contract at the end of that period for another like term. The consideration to be paid to the
company by the contractor was five hundred dollars a year in half-yearly installments. In case of refusal to renew, the company engaged to refund to the contractor the payments made during the last year.
It is unnecessary to examine the question whether, upon sufficient evidence in support of the allegations of the bill, the complainant could have relief by a decree for specific performance, for we are all of opinion that no case for relief is made by the proof.
It is not alleged that during the first five years the company failed in any respect to perform its contract. The main ground of complaint is that the company, after having renewed the contract for a second term of five years, failed to fulfill its stipulations.
There is much evidence on the point of renewal, and it is very contradictory. We shall not enter into any minute criticism upon it.
It is clear that the company was not bound to renew except upon the request of the contractor. There could be no refusal except upon a demand, nor was the company bound to renew even upon demand. It might still refuse, and in that case would be bound only to return to the contractor or his assignee the last year's payment of five hundred dollars.
The proof shows that the contract proved unexpectedly profitable to the contractor, and that the tar would be worth during a second term of five years, not five hundred dollars only, but over five thousand dollars a year.
It was natural that the contractor should seek a renewal, and it was equally natural that the company should be unwilling to renew except at an advanced rate corresponding in some degree to the increased value.
No formal demand for renewal seems to have been made, but there appears to have been a good deal of negotiation between the parties, and some adroit attempts on the part of the contractor to obtain admissions, either in words or acts, from the officers of the company upon which a claim that the contract had been in fact renewed might be established.
But these attempts were not successful. We are unable to find in the testimony any satisfactory evidence of a renewal of the contract. On the contrary, the whole weight of the proof shows refusal to renew except at an advanced rate, and failure on the part of the contractor to accept the terms required. Refusing to renew the contract, the company was under no obligation to the contractor except to refund the five hundred dollars received from him during
the preceding year, and for the recovery of this sum the remedy of the complainant was complete at law.
The decree of the Supreme Court of the District dismissing the bill must therefore be
