House Republicans Authorize Lawsuit Against Obama 30 July 2014 House Republicans on Wednesday voted to authorize a lawsuit against President Barack Obama for his use of executive actions...In a strict party-line 225-201 vote, Republican approved the legislation that accuses the president of exceeding his Constitutional authority by changing how his signature health care legislation was implemented. The measure does not require Senate approval. No Democrats voted for the bill. [When unelected sociopaths George W. Bush /Dick Cheney had almost 3,000 people killed during their 9/11 false flag; had anthrax sent from Fort Detrick to Democrats to pressure them to vote for the PATRIOT Act; were responsible for the deaths of over one million Iraqi civilians to enrich Halliburton, Blackwater, BP, Monsanto, and other corpora-terrorists; stole two elections; and *waterboarded* people-- where was the *lawsuit???* --LRP]

Broken water main floods UCLA; 5 people rescued 30 July 2014 A broken water main near the UCLA campus Tuesday sent a geyser of water some 30 feet into the air, trapping people in underground parking garages and covering some of the best-known parts of campus in water, including the school's famed basketball arena. The 30-inch, 93-year-old pipe that broke under nearby Sunset Boulevard made a raging river of the street and sent millions of gallons of water across the school's athletic facilities, including the famed floor of Pauley Pavilion, as well as a pair of parking structures that took the brunt of the damage. [If US taxpayers didn't have to pay for Israel's (and Kiev's) war crimes, there'd be funds available to fix 93-year-old pipes. --LRP]

The action comes as the Senate is set to vote Tuesday to confirm former Procter & Gamble CEO Robert McDonald as the new VA secretary, replacing Acting Secretary Sloan Gibson.


Obama planning to give 'millions of illegal immigrants work permits and save them from deportation' --Among the proposals: giving work permits to parents of children legally residing in the U.S. 29 July 2014 Even as they grapple with an immigration crisis at the border, White House officials are making plans to act before November's mid-term elections to grant work permits to potentially millions of immigrants who are in this country illegally, allowing them to stay in the United States without threat of deportation, according to advocates and lawmakers in touch with the administration...Advocates and lawmakers who were in separate meetings Friday said that administration officials are weighing a range of options including reforms to the deportation system and ways to grant relief from deportation to targeted populations in the country, likely by expanding Obama's two-year-old directive that granted work permits to certain immigrants brought here illegally as youths. That program, called Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, has been extended to more than 500,000 immigrants so far...At the same time, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce says it is actively working to determine whether there are steps Obama could take by executive action that could help the business community.


Octopus mom's incredible record: 53 months with eggs in Monterey Bay --The deep-water octopus was a small one, with a mantle barely 8 inches from stem to stern. 30 July 2014 A steadfast little octopus living in the deep water of Monterey Bay has set an extraordinary record of animal motherhood, laying her clutch of eggs and brooding them nonstop for 53 straight months - apparently without pause for food or rest. No creature in the world, large or small, has ever approached such a feat, say biologists who watched over the octopus with cameras in an unmanned submarine from the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute.
