(Breitbart) As Spring Break begins in earnest throughout the nation, thousands of students will travel to exotic vacation spots, many others won’t as it is a good time to work some extra hours to help pay for their school and miscellaneous expenses to make ends meet.
Sasha & Malia Obama however are vacationing on Paradise Island in the Bahamas, at significant travel cost and expense to the taxpayers that are footing the bill for their Secret Service detail, lodging and related expenses.
A hotel guest where the Obama girls are vacationing Tweeted “…Obama’s daughters were at Club Crush. Obama’s daughters smiled and waved at me, I was in the same room as Obama’s daughters.”

(Barracuda Brigade) When visiting NYC, be sure to know that one will need to check your civil liberties at the door–at least as long as America’s Nanny State Mayor Michael Bloomberg is in charge.
Appearing on NBC’s “Meet the Press” Sunday speaking about his failed soda ban Bloomberg said, ‘I do think there are certain times we should infringe on your freedom…I have a responsibility–to try to make this country safer.’
When asked if he’d be spending big time in next years mid-term elections to target the NRA and Members of Congress for opposing restrictions on Americans rights to keep and bear arms for self-defense, Bloomberg claimed “…I think I have an obligation to that that.”
Last week, FOX News reported that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) dropped a proposed assault weapons ban amid waning Congressional support for the measure.
Bloomberg launched an advertising campaign which begins airing today in a dozen states, targeting Senator’s that may be willing to vote to infringe on the Second Amendment rights of law abiding citizens.

(CHSA) Did you know that Katherine Sui Fun Cheung (1904-2003) was known as Chinese-American Amelia Earhart according to the Beijing Air Force Aviation Museum.
After her arrival into the United States in 1921 her father took her to an airfield to teach her how to drive but instead Cheung became fascinated with planes flying in/out of the gates, subsequently signing up for flying lessons at the Chinese Aeronautical Assn and took up a solo flight only 12 hours after her first lesson.
Cheung was also pursing music studies at USC and Cal Poly Pomona, later married her father’s business partner George Young and had two children before she earned her pilots license in 1932–an astounding feat in those times, when Asian-American Women were heavily restricted in pursing their dreams due to race and gender inequalities.
Cheung became the first Chinese-American to fly airplanes and dazzle crowds with her amazing acrobatics. Shortly thereafter, she was welcomed into the Ninety Nines Club formed by Amelia Earhart, exclusive to Women pilots.

Is China Hacking or Just Monitoring Their Investment –Epoch Times
(China Digital Times) Following the Mandiant Report which exposed a major hacking group linked to China’s Peoples Liberation Army, an investigation by the Los Angeles Times tracked down the personal blog of one of the alleged hackers.
In the blog which was active between 2006-2009 Wang a 25 yr old hacker provides a rare glimpse of the secretive hacking establishment of the China Regime, whose efforts are a growing concern to the United States.
On the 21 February, I wrote here that Secy of State John Kerry recently claimed that the greatest challenge to Obama’s foreign policy is not emerging from the China Regime but from Congress–where he served from 1985 until only recently.
