Has to be noted

From 10/8, 2016 By Allen Clifton

Look, I’m no mental health expert and I’m not involved in the medical field at all. But based on what I’ve read and can plainly see about Donald Trump, he exhibits nearly every characteristic linked to a sociopath. 
  • He: Doesn’t believe the rules or laws apply to him. 
  • Seems to have no concern about the consequences of his actions. Is impulsive. 
  • Shows frequent signs of being reckless. 
  • Is unpredictable. 
  • Lacks morals. 
  • Is a narcissist.
  • Has proven to be hot-tempered and a bit of a loose cannon. 
  • Lacks empathy or sympathy for others. 
  • Is manipulative to get what he wants. 
  • Almost never apologizes. 
  • Often invents outrageous lies about his success or experiences. 
  • Seems to believe that what he says is the truth, even if it isn’t. 
  • He is essentially the textbook definition of a sociopath. 

However, despite the fact that he exhibits all of these signs without shame, millions of people support him.

Trump is a man who has:

This is a man who has:
Mocked a man with disabilities.
Attacked the parents of a fallen American hero.
Belittled POWs and the war record of Sen. John McCain.
Lied about how much money he raised for veterans.
Called a former Miss Universe “disgusting” and fat, telling his Twitter followers to find her non-existent sex tape. Accused an American-born federal judge of being unfit to do his job because of his Mexican heritage.
Likely avoided paying taxes for nearly two decades.
Called most Mexican immigrants rapists and criminals, even though that’s not remotely factual.
Lied about seeing “thousands and thousands” of Muslims celebrating in New Jersey on 9/11.
Lied about getting a letter from the NFL complaining about the debate schedule.
Tried to exploit the death of an African American woman in Chicago to say that’s why black voters will support him. Found the “bright side” to tragedies because his poll numbers tend to go up.
Settled with the Department of Justice after his company was found guilty of racially discriminating against minorities.
Has cheated on at least one wife.
Was just discovered on video admitting that he not only tried to cheat on his current wife, but he attempted to do so with another married woman.
Had his first wife publicly say that he did nothing when it came to raising their children until they were old enough to talk business.
Tweeted that women should have expected to be sexually assaulted when they mixed males and females together in the military.
Said he wants to target the families of terrorists.
Stated that he wants to ban an entire religion.
Praised a Russian president who obviously hates the U.S. and Americans.
Encouraged the Russian government to commit espionage against Americans.
Insinuated that another Republican’s wife was ugly.
Tried to implicate another Republican’s father in JFK’s assassination.
Sought out the help of former Fox News CEO Roger Ailes after he was fired following multiple allegations that he had sexually harassed women for years.
Made Breitbart’s Steve Bannon one of his top campaign people.
Had a former campaign manager abruptly resign after a report came out linking him to pro-Russian groups that were directly trying to undermine U.S. policy in eastern Europe.
Called Carly Fiornia ugly.
Has said climate change was a hoax created by the Chinese — then denied saying it.
Was a leading conspiracy theorist when it came to the racist-driven birther conspiracies against President Obama. Dismissed nearly eight years of accusing the president of not being an American with a less than 30 second statement where he didn’t apologize for any of it.
Tried to blame Hillary Clinton for his racism.
Re-tweeted anti-African American propaganda created by a white supremacy group.
Played dumb about knowing who former Grand Wizard of the KKK David Duke was.
Skipped a presidential debate because he was scared of a moderator.
Has, on several occasions, suggested he finds his daughter attractive.
Called a husband doing things like changing diapers and helping with the children, a man “trying to be the wife. ” Has said he wants more countries to have nuclear weapons.
Said he can’t release his tax returns because they’re currently being audited — even though the IRS said that’s a lie.

Feels he has the right to sexually assault women.

Bush Cheney Emails

http://occupydemocrats.com/2016/10/10/trump-wont-mention-bush-cheney-deleted-22-million-emails/
While Trump obsesses over Hillary Clinton’s e-mail “scandal”, one wonders why the he never mentions the Bush Administration and the April 12, 2007 revelation that the White House had “lost” 5 million e-mails related to an investigation into the partisan firing of eight U.S. attorneys. Eventually, the true number was found to be over 22 million e-mails.

I questioned a business this morning, I think their office is still laffing, but I did see a handyman truck this morning with a Trump sticker.

"China, has mobilized thousands of people and an armada of small boats to clean up an algal bloom choking the coastline and threatening to impede the Olympic competition.
Harvested" algae is transported to local processing centers and used to make feed and fertilizer by companies, including China Ocean University Organism Project Development.  The company uses algae in three ways, namely feed additives, organic fertilizers and materials for healthcare products, said Shan Junwei, president of the company."

What would you do for $ 873,540.00

Monsanto Wins 1st Senate Vote on Roberts-Stabenow DARK Act!

On July 29, Monsanto scored a preliminary victory, winning a Senate “test vote” on a bill known as the DARK Act that Senate Agriculture Committee Chair Pat Roberts (R-Kansas) and Ranking Member Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.) introduced to Deny Americans the Right to Know about GMOs.
$ 873,540.00 is how much Senator Nelson D-FL got from agribusiness. He voted YES to effectively stop us from knowing what foods are genetically modified (GMO).

The Roberts-Stabenow GMO labeling bill would kill the Vermont law that labels GMO foods as “produced with genetic engineering.” Vermont's law is working. GMOs are being labeled. Food prices are staying the same. The labels are being used nationwide. 
The Roberts-Stabenow bill wouldn't require words on the package. It exempts nearly all GMOs from labeling. It would take at least 2 years to take effect. And, it’s essentially voluntary because there would be no enforcement for non-compliance.”

Read up on it and Google, there is no excuse for a 'yes' vote, to hide choice, to hurt us and future generations.

Beware new technology thieves

A 'MUST-READ' AND HEED! I understand that what you'll read below is obvious, but it's easy to overlook the obvious

    
NOT ALL THIEVES ARE STUPID:

1.  'LONG - TERM' PARKING:
Some people left their car in the long-term parking at San Jose while away, and someone broke into the car. Using the information on the car's registration in the glove compartment, they drove the car to the people's home in Pebble Beach and robbed it. So I guess if we are going to leave the car in long-term parking, we should NOT leave the registration/insurance cards in it, nor your remote garage door opener. This gives us something to think about with all our new electronic technology.

2.  GPS:
Someone had their car broken into while they were at a football game. Their car was parked on the green which was adjacent to the football stadium and specially allotted to football fans. Things stolen from the car included a garage door remote control, some money and a GPS which had been prominently mounted on the dashboard. When the victims got home, they found that their house had been ransacked and just about everything worth anything had been stolen. The thieves had used the GPS to guide them to the house. They then used the garage remote control to open the garage door and gain entry to the house. The thieves knew the owners were at the football game, they knew what time the game was scheduled to finish and so they knew how much time they had to clean out the house. It would appear that they had brought a truck to empty the house of its contents. Something to consider if you have a GPS - don't put your home address in it. Put a nearby address (like a store or gas station) so you can still find your way home if you need to, but no one else would know where you live if your GPS were stolen.
(I use Kroger for my 'home' address)

3.  CELL PHONES:
I never thought of this! This lady has now changed her habit of how she lists her names on her cell phone after her handbag was stolen. Her handbag, which contained her cell phone, credit card, wallet, etc., was stolen. Twenty minutes later when she called her hubby, from a pay phone telling him what had happened, hubby says, "I received your text asking about our Pin number and I've replied a little while ago." When they rushed down to the bank, the bank staff told them all the money was already withdrawn. The thief had actually used the stolen cell phone to text "hubby" in the contact list and got hold of the pin number. Within 20 minutes he had withdrawn all the money from their bank account.
Moral lesson: 
a. Do not disclose the relationship between you and the people in your contact list. Avoid using names like Home, Honey, Hubby, Sweetheart, Dad, Mom, etc.
b. And very importantly, when sensitive info is being asked through texts, CONFIRM by calling back.
c. Also, when you're being texted by friends or family to meet them somewhere, be sure to call back to confirm that the message came from them. If you don't reach them, be very careful about going places to meet "family and friends" who text you.

4. 'PURSE IN THE GROCERY CART' SCAM:
A lady went grocery-shopping at a local mall and left her purse sitting in the child's seat of the cart while she reached something off a shelf - wait till you read the WHOLE story! Her wallet was stolen, and she reported it to the store personnel. After returning home, she received a phone call from the Mall Security to say that they had her wallet and that although there was no money in it, it did still hold her personal papers. She immediately went to pick up her wallet, only to be told by Mall Security that they had not called her. By the time she returned home again, her house had been broken into and burglarized. The thieves knew that by calling and saying they were Mall Security, they could lure her out of her house long enough for them to burglarize it.

I think a public park makes the most sense

Article Courtesy of The Tampa Bay Times
By C.T. Bowen   
Published May 29, 2016

NEW PORT RICHEY — Pasco County is going halves on the cost of acquiring the closed Gulf Harbors golf course west of U.S. 19.

The acquisition, which still faces a neighborhood vote on assessing homeowners for the rest of the $1.2 million purchase, would preserve 50 acres amid a salt marsh that attracts rare sandpipers and other migratory waterfowl. It also ends the threat of the land being turned into single-family homes, a plan that originally surfaced 13 years ago.

"It does both of those things. It's a good thing,'' said Commissioner Kathryn Starkey whose district includes the waterfront neighborhood.

Snowing in New England today

This photo is Boston today. If it makes you sad try this song from Danny Gokey
Chorus: Tell your heart to beat again
Close your eyes and breathe it in
Let the shadows fall away
Step into the light of Grace
Yesterday's a closing door
You don't live there anymore
Say goodbye to where you've been

TERM LIMITS ARE NOT INTRINSICALLY BETTER


AN OPINION PIECE

Do not buy into the mistruth that Term Limits is "purer" or older or some such thing than No Term Limits.

The Term Limits question can be argued either way, depending on what sources you want to cite. For example, you can argue for Term Limits because in the US we now limit the President to two consecutive terms and further cite the fact that George Washington set the precedent for only two terms before it was amended constitutionally. But then one can argue back that there are no limits on US senators or representatives, and that Supreme Court justices serve for life.

Those who believe in Term Limits will then counter-argue that Term Limits is commonly applied elsewhere or that Term limits goes back further in history—conveniently going back in history to a time and place making their argument! Etc., etc.

All this misses the point: Neither Term Limits nor No Term Limits is INTRINSICALLY better than the other. Intelligent framers of a constitution—or rules whereby a society is run—seek the right balance in government. To do this they employ MANY VARIABLES. These include rights, duties and restrictions applying to officials; election vs. appointment to office; the number of officials in a given body such as the House or the Senate; length of a single term in office; and the application or non-application of Term Limits.

It's like a machine you tinker with to get working right. There is no right or wrong intrinsically to Term Limits. Here it may work well; there it does not.

The point for us in Century Village is simply to decide "Does Term Limits or No Term Limits work better for us?" We should also be asking: "IF Term Limits, which positions should this be applied to—all officers, some or none?"

Given CV's present set-up, I say "none" for the reasons many have given many times over. Some will disagree citing their reasons. That's okay. Let none of us say, however, that Term Limits or No Term Limits is better because it is the "original" and is thus "purer." This is a false argument. Both are just adjustments among other adjustments a society must make to their governing "machine" to get it working right.
