Feds to Tap Friant Dam First Time in Decades to Help California Central Valley Farmers

Thursday, May 15th, 2014

California Drought

(NBC Los Angeles) Water stored from behind Friant Dam north of Fresno will be tapped for the first time in decades today according to a U.S. Bureau of Reclamation official to help Central Valley farmers.

Despite Central Valley farmers desperate need for water to irrigate their fields, man-made wetlands have been used to provide temporary resting places for migrating birds while farmers go without much needed water for crops.

On the 29 January, I wrote here that California’s man-made drought problem were made worse in 2009 in large measure, thanks to then California Atty General, now Gov Jerry Brown’s disastrous environmental law suits to save the mountain yellow legged frog to increasing regulations and prohibitive costs on big construction projects, that had over the years been a driving factor that created new job opportunities, wealth and prosperity for millions of California residents.

If not for California’s wacky environmentalist policies and want for more crippling regulations that are now driving away business investment, legislators in Sacramento could have helped out everyone had they invested in the future years ago by constructing life saving desalination plants along the coastline such as Israel’s Sorek Desalination Plant that provides 26,000 cubic meters or 7 million gallons of clean portable water every hour to over 1.5 million people.

Ed Schultz Tweet

(TPNN)  MSNBC Loudmouth Ed Schultz, no stranger to controversy, on Monday, Tweeted that Gays (not Jews) were really the ones persecuted by the Nazi’s during the Holocaust.

Subsequently, Schultz quickly deleted his Tweet however, Twitter is forever.

On the 25 March, 2010 I wrote here that MSNBC Ed Schultz told radio listeners that he believes that the next ‘Socialist’ takeover by the government should be on all the radio airwaves.

Forget apologies and/or excuses, when will MSNBC  do the right thing and finally terminate Loony Liberal Lefty Loudmouth Loser Ed Schultz?

So Sad! My Beloved State of California Ranks as Worst State for Business in 2014

California Worst State for BusinessCalifornia Ranks Dead Last as the Worst State for Business in 2014

(Chief Executive.net) In the 10th annual survey of CEO’s concerning their views  of the best and worst states for business, over 500 CEO’s across the United States responded, grading states which they were familiar on measures including taxes and regulatory regime, the quality of the workforce and the quality of the living environment.

California, New York and Illinois continue to rank among the worst three states for business with virtually no change from 2013

What CEO’s are saying about California:

  • California goes out of its way to be anti-business and particularly where one might put manufacturing and/or distribution operations;
  • California continues to lead in disincentives for growth businesses to stay;
  • California’s attitude toward business makes you question why anyone would build a business there;
  • We relocated our corporate office from Los Angeles to Atlanta in 2006 largely because of the regulatory and unfriendly tax environment in the State of California. We considered Dallas but settled on Atlanta for customer-related and other secondary or marginal reasons. Would make the same decision if I had to do it all over again;
  • California could hardly do more to discourage business if that was the goal. The regulatory, tax and political environment are crushing. The only saving grace is that there are still a lot of affluent areas that drive local economic zones but the trend line on these is not good for the mid to longterm.

“There are some weeks that a data entry person would not process an application…They’re told to sit at their computers and hit the refresh button every 10 minutes.”

Islamic Fascist Iran Denies Access to IAEA Weapons Inspectors Ahead of Nuclear Talks

(BBC)  P5+1 (United States, UK, France, China, Russia plus Germany) Nuclear weapons negotiations with Islamic Fascist Iran are set to resume in Vienna with Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani on Sunday warning, that Iran will not surrender its right to nuclear development.

One should take the Iranian Fascist Regime at their word when it comes to their nuclear weapons program.

On the 09 April, I wrote here Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi who is also its top nuclear negotiator said, “We will never negotiate about the country’s ballistic missiles and defense systems and will not put them to debate.”

On the 04 May, ‘The Natl Council of Resistance of Iran’ reported that Iran denied IAEA U.N. Nuclear Weapons Inspectors access to its Parchin nuclear facility–this wasn’t the first time. During the past 3 years IAEA weapons inspectors have attempted but failed to gain access to Parchin as the Iranian regime has been busy making major changes to the site, to erase any trace and evidence of nuclear testing.

Given the Iran’s refusal to cooperate during nuclear negotiations, their provocative threats of war against the United States and repeated threats against Israel, only a fool would continue to believe that one can say just the right thing, negotiate and have any level of confidence in the Islamic Fascist Iranian regime.

Days Before Secy of State Kerry’s Meeting With Mahmoud Abbas, Armed Wing of Fatah’s Party Affirms Commitment of Terrorism Against Israel

PA and Hamas Unity Means to Destroy IsraelDespicable: Palestinian Authority Cartoon Presents Reconciliation and Unity Between PA Fatah & Hamas as a Means to Destroy Israel & Jews

(Ynet) Secy of State John Kerry and Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas will be meeting in London on Thursday to discuss the Obama Administration’s ongoing relationship with the antisemitic, Islamic Palestinian Authority.

Just last week, Al Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades, the armed wing of Palestinian Authority (PA) President Mahmoud Abbas Fatah Party said that it will refuse to lay down its weapons or renounce violence according to its website Nedal on Thursday, 08 May Algemeiner reports.

Abu Mohammed, spokesman for the Islamic Martyrs’ Brigades which operates in Gaza said, “We in the Al Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades will not allow anyone, whether the current government in Gaza or Ramallah–or a government of national unity to withdraw weapons of the resistance  because they are legitimate weapons and directed against the enemy,” Israel.

The Al Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigade was flagged by Elder of Ziyon who noted that in 2008 PA President Abbas “told gullible Westerners” that he had dismantled the Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigade–he lied.

“As far as I can tell,” writes Elder of Ziyon “they are on Fatah’s payroll and very possibly getting indirectly financed by Western governments (such as the $440 Million of American taxpayers money given to the PA in FY 2013 I digress) who bend over backwards to pretend that Mahmoud Abbas and his party are the moderate, peaceful guys.”

Virginia First State to Release ObamaCare 2015 Premium Rate Proposals

Monday, May 12th, 2014

Team Obama Health Care PledgeTeam Obama Pledged: If You Like Your Health Care You Can Keep It and Promised to Lower Annual Health Insurance Premiums by $2500.00

(WSJ) Virginia residents will realize increased health insurance premiums next year ranging from 3.3% to 14.9% according to filings from the first state to release information on ObamaCare rate hikes.

The premium proposals were submitted to Virginia’s state insurance department for official approval and made public today–each health care plan expects to increase their prices in 2015 past nominal increases for inflation.

Care First Blue Choice which offers health insurance coverage to 32,000 customers has proposed the sharpest increase in premiums of 14.9%

Its likely that younger and healthier consumers will be hit with the largest  premium increases due to ObamaCare’s rule banning insurers from charging higher premiums to typically older and sicker customers who use more health care services.
