Stephen Hawking: God was not needed to create the Universe

The Big Bang was the result of the inevitable laws of physics and did not need God to spark the creation of the Universe, Stephen Hawking has concluded.

[snip] In his new book he rejects Sir Isaac Newton’s theory that the Universe did not spontaneously begin to form but was set in motion by God.[snip]

Well that finally settles it!

Cash-Poor Governments Ditching Public Hospitals

Faced with mounting debt and looming costs from the new federal health-care law, many local governments are leaving the hospital business, shedding public facilities that can be the caregiver of last resort. [snip]

More than a fifth of the nation’s 5,000 hospitals are owned by governments and many are drowning in debt caused by rising health-care costs, a spike in uninsured patients, cuts in Medicare and Medicaid and payments on construction bonds sold in fatter times. Because most public hospitals tend to be solo operations, they don’t enjoy the economies of scale, or more generous insurance contracts, which bolster revenue at many larger nonprofit and for-profit systems. [snip]

Just who might be those uninsured patients we hear are costing us so dearly?
Medicare and Medicaid news is very old hat. Those programs underpaid for services from inception. By design, both rip off the taxpayers and private enterprise, now ObamaCare will use them as stalking horses to close the distance and kill off non-government health care.

The Coffee Health Group in northern Alabama has been in debt since the late 1990s, when bonds were sold to buy three health-care properties. In the past two years, Coffee couldn’t keep enough cash on hand to satisfy the bond insurer, said Ms. Fulmer, the commissioner. “If we could not meet our financial obligation, they were going to come in and do it for us,” she said.

In March, the county agreed to transfer the county’s 350-bed hospital, a smaller area hospital and other assets, to RegionalCare, which agreed to pay off the $140 million in debt, recruit doctors and replace equipment. Area residents liked the company’s promise to build a new, 300-bed medical center for $250 million.

A spokesman for the company and the hospital didn’t return calls.

Charlie Wilson, a member of the public hospital authority voted no. “Our charity care was quite high and our bad debt was high, too,” he said. The company’s ability to make a profit, he said, “is going to be a struggle for them.”

A struggle, no it’s not going to be a struggle, they simply will not handle those that cannot pay. Rejecting government funds of any sort, why that will allow for the paying patients to fill the beds. The house trash can go to the ObamaCare “Medical Camps” for the orts.

Imagine bringing this sport back in today’s schools. It use to be taught as part of gym.

…And a lot fewer stupid jackasses!

I’ve heard that these guys are “Ultra-Liberal” Even better!

“Forget” Obama. He doesn’t have enough juice to save us from THIS CATASTROPHE.  Or maybe the Prog pantywaists will just blame Bush.

Rain lifts, vacationing Obamas dine out for lunch

It was the Obamas’ second straight year at Nancy’s. Joining them in an upstairs dining room were adviser Valerie Jarrett and Chicago friends Cheryl and Eric Whitaker.

Oh my, for Obama and friends, it’s lobster and shrimp, crabs with all the goodies.
I wonder if this vacationing Chamber of Commerce flack knows how the lobster and crabs are caught.

Obama deflected a reporter’s shouted question on Iraq while ordering. He replied with a smile: “We’re buying shrimp, guys. Come on.”

Here’s a set of pictures to help you understand…

This choice piece will give you a peek into the maw of your upcoming personal hell.

Shining a psychological spotlight on a few of the insanities of life

MEDICAL SPIN OR MEDICAL CARE? IT’S YOUR CHOICE
Last year I wrote a piece for this blog that expressed my feelings about the Democrat’s unsubtle plan to nationalize health care (”This Time I Don’t Care Anymore, Let the Zombies Take Over Medicine“). Well, I have a confession to make.

I care. I care a lot.

You see, I have personal knowledge as a physician of how awful government medicine is; all the restrictions on physicians’ clinical judgments; all the decisions made for supposedly “scientific” reasons, which are really made because of cost and cost alone. If you want to know how things will work out under Obama’s health care debacle, you need look no further than the VA Health Care System, which I judge to be many years behind the standard of care demanded in private settings; and even more backwards than most County and State Health Programs.

They mean well, of course. Reality-deprived morons do-gooders like Obama, Pelosi, and most of the Democratic party (and not a few Republicans) always do.  [snip]

 As to the part about the VA, I can personally speak to that situation. The daily operations are getting worse. The people are wonderful.

The Government needs money now so badly, that they are using the VA to fund Obama’s boondoggles. This isn’t redistributive; this is pure plunder governing. This mentality showed up early in Obama’s term.
Of course you remember our wonderful CinC address to the troops about the VA,

“Look, it’s an all volunteer force,” Obama complained. “Nobody made these guys go to war. They had to have known and accepted the risks. Now they whine about bearing the costs of their choice? It doesn’t compute..” “I thought these were people who were proud to sacrifice for their country, “Obama continued “I wasn’t asking for blood, just money. With the country facing the worst financial crisis in its history, I’d have thought that the patriotic thing to do would be to try to help reduce the nation’s deficit.. I guess I underestimated the selfishness of some of my fellow Americans.”

 He proposed that veterans carry private health insurance to cover the estimated $540 million annual cost to the federal government of treatment for injuries to military personnel received during their tours on active duty.
It’s part of their FAIR SHARE, you know.
Yeah, all of us vets are just selfish inconsiderate ingrates who now want FREE health care.
Hotspur, when the VA gets through poking you, remind me to tell you you’re a selfish pig. It’s been too long since somebody told you. You too OP.

The problem of Freedom of Religion and Religious Tolerance in the United States has not to do with Religion but with the First Amendment to that Constitution expounding,

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;

and is taken as written to mean that there will be no Official Religion of the State. Agreed and SCOTUS has also.

Islam, unfortunately for those wishing to lump it with other practicing faiths, is a State Religion, with a set of governmental laws controlling all facets of quotidian Muslim life. To avoid Apostasy, all Muslims must subscribe to the law of Shari’a as found in the Q’oran.

Everything is covered from sanitary habits to how and when to beat your wife plus honor killings, proper method of stoning,  beheadings, apposite disposal of homos, Jihads, lawyer free divorces and winking at sheep. That’s just a few of the high points.
Proper and improper display of chattel (women), religious tours (mandated), Usury, and schooling offspring (males) are described and proscribed.

This link will give you the moderate Islamic methodology of dealing with unbelievers.

This is not the sum of all controlling authority. To insure a more harmonious society, religious police perform nanny duties with great vigor.

Given all this, explain how THIS “RELIGION” fits the First Amendment prohibition of Establishing an Official State Religion, the one that wishes to erect a mosque in lower NYC as an act of ‘healing’.

 Justice Department Seeks Ebonics Experts

The Department of Justice is seeking to hire linguists fluent in Ebonics to help monitor, translate, and transcribe the secretly recorded conversations of subjects of narcotics investigations, according to federal records. A maximum of nine Ebonics experts will work with the Drug Enforcement Administration’s Atlanta field division, where the linguists, after obtaining a “DEA Sensitive” security clearance, will help investigators decipher the results of “telephonic monitoring of court ordered nonconsensual intercepts, consensual listening devices, and other media” [snip]
