Mark Twain once talked about history not necessarily repeating, but he noted that history sure does rhyme.

Richard Nixon was unable to survive one direct hit upon his administration, namely, the Watergate scandal. Conversely, Obama is facing five scandals which dwarfs Watergate in terms of criminality, abuse of power, malfeasance of office and outright treason. The damage inflicted upon the American people by the criminal syndicate occupying the White House, in American History, is unparalleled. Yet, Obama is going to survive and this article will describe how Obama is this century’s version of the famous escape artist, Houdini.

The Alternative Media Is Doing Its Job

In Part One of this series, I detailed how various researchers have determined that it only takes 10% of the population to passionately hold to an ideal for the ideal to reach critical mass and go viral. I also described how the knowledge that this country is being run by a criminal syndicate is taking hold and we have likely passed the 10% threshold as evidenced by the fact that America is outraged by (1) Benghazi-Gate; (2) IRS-Gate; (3) AP Spy-Gate; (4) Whistle-blower-Gate; and even (5) Fast and Furious is beginning to make a second pass. The alternative media is being so effective that it is forcing the MSM to jump off Obama’s ship and claim they do not support him any longer (e.g. MSNBC Chris Mathews).

The Calm Before the Storm

Even the great fence sitter, Glenn Beck, is beginning to throw words around like “impeachment” in reference to Obama. And this is coming from a man who cannot decide if he is in the MSM or the alternative media. Remember, according to Beck, 9/11 is exactly as the Bush administration claims it was, an al Qaeda venture. This is the same al-Qaeda that we are allegedly fighting in Afghanistan while supporting in Syria in our effort to oust Assad.

It's a common human trait to want to put your head in the sand and avoid facing the reality of your situation. But when it comes to financial matters, living beyond your means, incurring high levels of debt, and developing a bad credit profile can ruin more than just your bank account.

According to Corporation for Enterprise Development's 2013 Assets & Opportunity Scorecard, nearly half -- 43.9 percent -- of U.S. households are living on the edge of financial collapse, with almost no savings to support them in the event of a job loss or health crisis.

1. Your savings account balance is zero
2. You've paid more than one overdraft fee this year
3. You're using credit card checks to pay your bills
4. You spent more than your credit limit
5. You never pay more than the minimum on your credit card bill
6. You're counting on winning the lottery to fund your retirement
7. You're borrowing from your 401(k) to pay your bills
8. You're fighting with your spouse or partner over money and keeping secrets
9. Debt collectors are calling your house

Ferry and Messina have had contact about the possibility, and Messina is intrigued with the chance to be a global trail blazer in the NBA, sources told Y! Sports.
Ferry recently scouted CSKA Moscow in London at the Euroleague Final Four.
If the Hawks choose Messina, he would become the first European born head coach.
Messina was a consultant on Mike Brown’s staff with the Los Angeles Lakers, but he decided to leave for Europe before the start of the season. ]]> The Sports Board kendrick http://www.tspnsports.com/forums/showthread.php?111770-Atlanta-Hawks-consider-hiring-Euro-coach http://www.tspnsports.com/forums/showthread.php?111769-The-Most-Redneck-City-in-America&goto=newpost Fri, 17 May 2013 20:23:12 GMT The most redneck city in America is . . . drumroll, please . . . . . . . . . .

Atlanta dubbed 'Most Redneck' city in United States

Published: May 13, 2013 at 5:29 PM


SAN MATEO, Calif., May 13 (UPI) -- A California real estate brokerage firm dubbed Atlanta the "Most Redneck" U.S. city, using criteria such as the number of NASCAR tracks and Walmarts.

Movoto, based in San Mateo, said its criteria also included the number of gun and ammo stores, taxidermists, cowboy boot stores and country radio stations, and the percentage of the population who haven't completed high school to rank the 10 "Most Redneck" U.S. cities, ABC News reported Monday.

Atlanta was first on the list, followed by Kansas City, Mo.; Oklahoma City; Nashville; Tulsa, Okla.; Fort Worth, Texas; Arlington, Texas; Sacramento; Cleveland; and Mesa, Ariz.

The Movoto posting has resulted in several angry comments from those who took exception to the "Redneck" label. (probably from folks on TSPN) :emlaugh:

Jackson - Jackson State University and Jackson Public Schools entered into a historic agreement on Thursday, creating a partnership to enhance the quality of education offered at Blackburn Middle School.

Blackburn will become a JSU laboratory school. JSU faculty and researchers will start working this summer with Blackburn faculty and administrators to create a school where excellence in education theory and practice can be observed, studied and utilized.

The school will also provide clinical experience for JSU students and create a living laboratory for research and applied practices to improve teaching. It will be renamed Blackburn Laboratory School. ]]> On Da Yard! jstate83 http://www.tspnsports.com/forums/showthread.php?111768-JSU-and-JPS-partner-to-form-Blackburn-Laboratory-Middle-School http://www.tspnsports.com/forums/showthread.php?111767-PLANT-MANAGER-BROOKHAVEN-MS&goto=newpost Fri, 17 May 2013 18:56:05 GMT http://continentalcarbonic.hrmdirect...364&jbsrc=1014
