San Francisco is one of the dirtiest cities in the US. And it is obsessed with no plastic bags….
Dirty San Francisco! San Francisco was the first city in the nation to ban plastic bags. It’s obsessed with recycling and organic food. But apparently none of this is satisfactory for the good people of Travel + Leisure magazine.
Our City by the Bay scored the dubious honor of being listed as the 12th dirtiest city in the nation in Travel + Leisure’s annual America’s Favorite Cities survey.

Jackson rants about Christian militants during the King hearings on causes of increased Muslim radicalization in the prisons.
At a congressional hearing on Muslim radicalization in U.S. prisons, Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) said that investigators needed to analyze Christian militants in America because they too might try to “bring down the country.†Rep. Jackson Lee mentioned the case of a man who blew up an abortion clinic.
Rep. Lee then said, “ we should include an analysis of how Christian militants or others might bring down the country. We have to look broadly, do we not?â€
Dunleavy answered: “I don’t know that Christian militants have foreign country backing or foreign country financing.â€

IPCC has Dr. Frankenstein type ideas how to control climate change.
climate change by Dr. Frankensteins
In a leaked document obtained by The Telegraph the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has outlined a series of techniques in which scientists hope will manipulate the world’s climate to reduce carbon emissions.
Among the ideas proposed by a group of 60 leading scientists from around the world include producing “lighter colored” crops to reflect sunlight, blasting aerosol “mirrors” into the stratosphere and suppressing cirrus clouds.
Other suggestions include spraying sea water into clouds as another reflection mechanism, depositing massive quantities of iron filings into the oceans, painting streets and roofs white and adding lime to oceans.
These so-called experts, whose livelihood depends on UN and government largess, continue to exploit the science-fiction fantasy of manmade “climate change.” Another sterling example of your tax dollars at work.

Even now scientists are working on a ladder tall enough to reach the clouds with an attached sea water spewer. Millions of acres of daisies are under cultivation as we glance at the humongous hole in the ground filled with iron miners.
Delta discriminates against Jews and will not transport Jews to Saudia Arabia.
Delta says no Jews can fly to Saudia Arabia
Delta will add Saudi Arabian Airlines to its SkyTeam Alliance of partnering companies and would require Delta to ban Jews and holders of Israeli passports from boarding flights to Saudi Arabia.
Kathy M. Johnston, Delta’s coordinator of Customer Care, explained that Delta does not discriminate nor condone discrimination against any protected class of passenger in regards to age, race, nationality, religion, or gender.
However, she stated , Delta must comply with all applicable laws in every country it serves. That means that if the Saudi government denies Jews from entering its country and Delta brings them there on its flight they can be fined.

State regulators say a gambler won a $25,000 jackpot on a Pittsburgh casino slot machine that should have paid out only $12.
The Gaming Control Board tells the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette the false jackpot happened on May 29, 2010. The generous payout happened in one of five instances involving Rivers Casino machines that weren’t properly tested or certified.
The board was to have levied an unspecified fine against the casino.
Casino officials say the player was allowed to keep the jackpot and that it paid all taxes on it.

They fined the casino. Why? So they don’t lose money. Gee, the casino may have figured that out all by themselves.
CA lawmakers lose $48,000 a day (120 lawmakers times $400 a day). Whiners not paid complain that CA has become a banana republic. Taxpayers want a balanced budget.
CA lawmakers whine about no pay
Just days after Gov. Jerry Brown vetoed the state budget, lawmakers in California took another hit Tuesday when Controller John Chiang concluded that they will lose their pay.
The controller’s decision means that each of the state’s 120 legislators will permanently lose about $400 a day until they pass a balanced spending plan.
The controller’s decision today sets a dangerous precedent,” said Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg, D-Sacramento.
Assemblyman Mike Gatto, D-Los Angeles said,
“California has officially degenerated into a banana republic, with one branch of government withholding the pay of another. I wonder if the controller plans on withholding the pay of judges if he disagrees with one of their decisions,”
And Sen. Noreen Evans, D-Santa Rosa, said the controller has “precipitated a constitutional crisis, one where the balance of powers in our constitutional form of government has shifted considerably, and the separation between the legislative and the executive branches of state government has been breached.”

Even in these jittery times, can any air traveler be expected to part willingly with his precious electronic devices?
And not just devices that play music or games. But devices that play. Or, to put it another way, devices that jiggle. The Transportation Safety Admin. whose job it is to consider fully such matters, has decreed that vibrators are OK.
The TSA says whips, chains, leashes, restraints and manacles are OK, too. Any law-abiding citizen has the right to carry any such device onto an airplane.The TSA says screwdrivers, wrenches and other “hand tools” may be brought aboard in carry-on luggage if they are less than 7 inches in length.

A New York court says getting a lap dance isn’t the same as taking in a ballet, so an alcohol-free strip club will have to pay the tax man.
Four Appellate Division justices agree with a decision by a state tax appeals commission that says dances onstage or in private rooms at a suburban Albany juice bar don’t qualify for a tax exemption as “dramatic or musical arts performances.”
The court says that among other reasons, the dancers aren’t even required to have any formal dance training.
