We’re Back And We’re Proud

Hosting Matters went offline for a little while, while the crew performed a major upgrade that should improve service. Hope no one broke any New Year’s resolutions as a result.

Jordy Smith Wins Billabong Rio Pro 2013 Surf Contest
Only 300 points now separate the #1 surfer in the world (Adriano de Souza) and the #3 surfer in the world (Mick Fanning). And this guy, Jordy Smith, is right there between them.

Jennifer Rubin Demands CNN ‘Mute’ David Shuster for ‘Media Matters Talking Points’
"He was misled and I don't know how you can stand by a story if the story is wrong," Shuster argued. "He could have put this email out and said, 'I've been debriefed on the email from a Republican congressional source and here's what they tell me.' Instead, ABC News said that they 'obtained' the emails and Jonathan Karl made it seem if ...

Scientists Agree on Climate Change, Why Doesn’t the Public? : NPR
A new study confirms that the vast majority of scientists who research the climate accept that the planet is warming and human beings are largely responsible. Yet a large slice of the American public believes that scientists are deeply split about global warming. More: Scientists Agree on Climate Change, Why Doesn't the Public? : NPR

Judge rules tea party group a PAC, not a nonprofit
A Travis County district court judge ruled this week that a Houston-based tea party group is not a nonprofit corporation as it claims, but an unregistered political action committee that illegally aided the Republican Party through its poll-watching efforts during the 2010 elections. The summary judgment by Judge John Dietz upheld several Texas campaign finance laws that had been challenged on constitutional grounds ...

Letter: HB116 Promotes Creationism
Having failed twice before, Rep. Frank Hoffmann, R-West Monroe, is promoting another stealth creationist bill, House Bill 116, which "provides relative to textbooks and other instructional materials for [public] elementary and secondary schools."When Rep. Gene Reynolds, D-Dubberly, expressed concern that HB116 could permit adoption of controversial books on evolution and other subjects (Advocate May 13), he was exactly right. Hoffmann responded, "That is ...

Targeting Texas
In a speech on April 15 before the McLennan County Republican Club, Greg Abbott, the Republican Attorney General and a potential candidate for governor in 2014, declared that Battleground Texas represents a bigger danger to the state than Kim Jong-un, the leader of North Korea: One thing that requires ongoing vigilance is the reality that the state of Texas is coming under a ...

Selling a Client on a High End Web Server…
... sorry about the rampant disregard for spell checking or proper grammar, the irony of it being Nazi's with grammar issues is not lost on me. I won't admit to how many of the things mentioned in this video I used (or was guilty of) RBS

Mountain of Petroleum Coke From Oil Sands Rises in Detroit
WINDSOR, Ontario -- Assumption Park gives residents of this city lovely views of the Ambassador Bridge and the Detroit skyline. Lately they've been treated to another sight: a three-story pile of petroleum coke covering an entire city block on the other side of the Detroit River. Detroit's ever-growing black mountain is the unloved, unwanted and long overlooked byproduct of Canada's oil sands boom. ...

Trump Completes Testimony in Chicago Trial, Tells Reporters Plaintiff Tried to ‘Rip’ Him Off
A scowling Donald Trump raised his voice on the witness stand Wednesday while an attorney grilled him and then rolled his eyes at the "Apprentice" star's answers, prompting a federal judge to scold both men in open court and order them to behave. The admonition came during Trump's second and final day on the stand at a civil trial where he is accused ...

Jon Karl Makes Things Worse
CNN's Howard Kurtz, who knows a little bit about being in the line of media fire for his own work, offered ABC News's embattled Jon Karl the chance to defend himself on Reliable Sources Sunday. Karl, of course, is in hot water because his "scoop" revealing that the White House tampered with Benghazi talking points relied on doctored email leaked by House Republican ...

The Greatest (Movie) Speech Ever Made
73 years later is still relevant and powerful as ever. It's also because of this movie that Charlie Chaplin was labelled a "premature anti-fascist."

Your Weekly Peggy Noonan Three Martini Column
We are in the midst of the worst Washington scandal since Watergate. The reputation of the Obama White House has, among conservatives, gone from sketchy to sinister, and, among liberals, from unsatisfying to dangerous. No one likes what they're seeing. The Justice Department assault on the Associated Press and the ugly politicization of the Internal Revenue Service have left the administration's credibility deeply, ...

4 Things We Should Remember When Arguing About Politics
Political discourse in America has reached levels of douchebaggery previously only theorized about but never observed, like conversational dark matter. We're in a whole new world of hating people based solely on their opinions on a few key issues, and since this is unexplored territory, our conversations about politics are usually only a couple notches beyond the "hold your breath until the other ...

What to do in Orange County - LA - San Diego
Seems a good way to solicit ideas for touristing destinations and activities. Will have 4-5 days so some opportunity for visiting multiple sites. And since I do have an interest in history and military history items in that area will be welcome suggestions. (The USS Midway down in San Diego is already on the list.) If there is anything California-geology related that would be ...
