They’ve caused draught and wildfires in Canada. Here is the effect on air quality in Freeville, NY (central New York State near Ithaca) and New York City…
Hello:
These days, everybody has a camera, and they're recording your government in action - especially the police - and the police don't like it.. When videographers show up to film at city hall, they're told the bureaucrats are "uncomfortable", and cannot be recorded. When the cops arrive on scene, they're quick to tell the cameramen where they CAN record, and where they CANNOT, hence my question.
Do you HAVE the Constitutional right to record ANYTHING your eyes can LEGALLY see? If not, why not? I say YES. If you can legally BE where you are, you can legally record it. Lemme ask it another way.. Do you, Joe Citizen, HAVE an expectation of privacy when you're in public? If so, why? No, I'm not talking about rest rooms.
I didn't link any particular website, because YouTube is RIFE with these type of videos. Search for 1st Amendment Auditors.

But they probably aren't cheering anymore because Biden was able to reach a deal and there will be no government shutdown. Originally Kevin McCarthy wanted a debt-ceiling bill that would have gutted much of what Biden accomplished in his first two years. It was a wholly unreasonable proposal, aimed at appeasing the extremes of McCarthy's own party. But the final deal was nothing close to what MAGA lawmakers wanted.In the House 149 Republicans voted in favor of the deal - that is 68% of the chambers GOP members so I think that is a sign that Trump and the MAGA movement is over. Cheers! less

Normally, all I have to cover is the $45 co-pay, and the rest is covered by my PPO health insurance. When I was billed $250 of the PPO portion, I immediately contacted the insurance company, they stated that it should have been a covered expense, yet they had nothing to do with it because the billing office at the medical provider’s end charged me, not the insurance company. However, instead of leaving it at that, my insurance company informed me that they would contact the billing office to work it out. They asked me to wait approximately two weeks for everything to be ironed out, also stating that they were almost 100% sure that it would be resolved in my favor, that it was what is known as a “coding error”. They said I could most likely count on all of the $250 eventually being paid by the insurance.
Instead of being a complaint, this post gives kudos to not only my insurance company, but also the people of that billing department of the medical provider. Approxima... less

Knew it. I never lie to myself.If I want to visit Potemkin Square In Kherson there are lots of options for how to arrange your leisure. For lovers of laid-back evening walks in the city, there are several squares and parks. Potemkin Square - one of the best in Kherson. Walk on the square that will help you get to know the city and you will get a lot of pleasant experiences. Not long ago, the square was reconstructed.

It's a short animated film by actor Tom Hanks and activist Jeffery Robinson, the executive director of The Who We Are Project.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tBvodoftTjAThe film was interesting, but the uplifting part came from the discussion by Mr. Hanks and Mr. Robinson. Their film is to illuminate the words in the preamble to the US Constitution, "In order to form a more perfect union..." which means that we should never stop trying to accomplish this!https://www.c-span.org/video/?528365-1/actor-tom-hanks-film-1876-election less

I was thinking of changing my profile name to Parksville but it sounds a little punkie so I am thinking of Mr. 69 because Parksville is in district. 69. I asked a buddy what he thought about Mr. 69 for my new profile name and he just laughed. Cheers!

Siri works because it recognizes words, and all by itself, learns new words every day. As AI advances it'll recognize pictures. Today, we can build AI drones that don't need human input to fly, and don't need human input to launch its missiles.Can you see where I'm going with this? Of course, I could be nutso fruitso, or a harbinger of a dark future. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/05/01/technology/ai-google-chatbot-engineer-quits-hinton.htmlexcon less

I'm going to hit someone!" Or, "Am I walking into the path of someone's driving?"
And, lo - - someone simply locked their vehicle.

Nearly 40% of Americans surveyed for the study said politics is stressing them out, and one in five are losing sleep. These responses and others show many in the United States believe their mental and physical health has been harmed in some way by exposure to politics.

Even if he manages to weasel his way out of being convicted himself for Jan 6, calling the Oath Keepers "good people" is undeniably offering comfort - so he's constitutionally ineligible to hold office! Or am I misreading Section III of the Fourteenth Amendment?
