port of terror: Obummer regime exposing USA to new threat via Florida port contract?
"In 2006, that concern was over port security and was centered on President George W. Bush [Shrub] approving a deal with Dubai Ports World to operate shipping operations in 6 major American cities.   The media and the political establishment went ballistic over the revelation.   9 years later, however, a similar announcement is being met with relative silence.   Last year, the [Obummer regime] formally approved a 35-year contract with Gulftainer to operate out of Florida's Port Canaveral, a location that's alarmingly close to a U.S. Air Force base, a submarine base and NASA's Kennedy Space center.   This week, the terminal officially opened...   Gulftainer...is a company located in the United Arab Emirates, a confederation of nations that critics have charged is the origin for much funding for terrorist groups.   Since Gulftainer is leasing the port and not purchasing the property, the company reportedly did not have to submit to a national security review.   This may be the norm for how the federal government operates, but it is troubling.   A quick [ixquick] search reveals that conservative blogs have suggested the company may have shipped weapons through its ports to terror groups in Iraq and may have help helped Iran ship weapons to Gaza=Palestine..."

"...The children, the Murdoch children, have said they can't wait to make Fox News more like CNN.   Now why would you want to make the successful Fox News more like the unsuccessful CNN?   Because, you get invited to better cocktail parties in Manhattan when you do that -- it's that simple...   James Murdoch gave $2,300 to Hillary Clinton's 2008 presidential campaign.   He also donated between $1M and $5M to the scandal-plagued Clinton Foundation.   The elder Murdoch, meanwhile, has donated to both [RINO] and Democratic campaigns, including those of senate majority-leader Mitch McConnell, senator [Lindsey Grahamnesty], senator Cory Booker and representative Steny Hoyer.   Significantly, James Murdoch has a good relationship with Saudi Arabia's prince Alwaleed bin Talal, one of Fox's top share-holders..."

About a dozen liquor retailers are participating in the Yampa Valley beer boycott, part of a regional uprising of residents, business owners and elected officials fighting to save the Colowyo Mine, an economic backbone of the rural community in the remote far northwestern corner of the state..."

  "When a motion was introduced into the Virginia House of Burgesses in 1769 to allow slave-owners to free their slaves unilaterally -- a motion seconded by Thomas Jefferson -- there was anger at such a suggestion and the motion was roundly defeated. An unlimited power to release slaves into the larger society was considered too dangerous to leave in private hands." --- Thomas Sowell _Black Rednecks & White Liberals_ pg145 (citing Henry Wiencek 2004 _An Imperfect God: George Washington, His Slaves, and the Creation of America_ pg160)

in gig/bodyshop economy no one is employed, as execs skimp on long-term benefits
"...The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics's [BLS's] latest employer compensation costs estimates that the wages and salary of a full-time worker averaged [only] $22.88 per hour in March.   But the cost of benefits adds [only] an additional $10.61, or 46%, more for a total of $31.65 an hour.   By turning employees into 'gig' workers [bodies shopped], corporations [and their executives] save 30% by eliminating the 7.65% employer portion of [Socialist Insecurity] and Medicare taxes, state unemployment compensation insurance, workers' compensation insurance, [ObummerDoesn'tCare] burdens, company's 401K and any profit sharing contribution.   'Going gig' [bodyshopping] also slashes law-suit exposure...   [Bodies shopped] lack the myriad of new employee protections against discrimination and wrongful termination, along with enhanced 'rights' to unionize, be paid over-time, and take numerous family leaves.   [Bodyshop] employment has been among the fastest-growing sectors of the USA economy for the last several [decades].   [This increase in bodyshopping has been accelerating since the early 1980s according to Monthly Labor Review articles, due to changes in tax, banking, labor and immigration laws.]   Since the recession's official end in 2009 June, the industry has added 1.24M new jobs, or about 12.3% of all new private sector jobs.   Staffing of temporary and contract workers rose 5.4% in 2014, but accelerated by 4.2% from the third to fourth quarter -- a 16.8% annualized rate.   G. Palmer and Associates predicts that temp employment [bodyshopping] will grow 10.5% in 2015...   the US census bureau estimated there were 42M in 2006.   The [census bureau] found that about one-third of the work-force was self-employed or paid as contract workers.   But the 'Third Annual Independent Workforce Report', compiled last year by management-services firm MBO Partners, suggests that by 2020 about 50% of the USA work-force will work independently as free-lancers, contractors or small business owners...   [Since the early 1990s, there has been a] huge 'transition effort' to dump American tech employees [and replace them] with cheap H-1B visa contract workers from abroad."
153,794 new/initial H-1B visas were actually issued through consular offices in Fiscal Year 2013, and 162,239 new/initial H-1B visas were issued in FY2014.   Over 2,589,226 H-1B visas have been issued from FY1990 to FY2014 according to the State Department annual reports.

DoL to investigate Clinton allies for abuse of H-1B visa system
Bill McMorris: Washington DC Free Beacon
"...The two companies [Tata and Infosys] have been generous supporters of the Clintons Foundation, contributing between $35K and $50K.   Clinton's ties extend beyond foundation donations.   As a freshman senator from New York, Hillary Clinton praised TCS for setting up operations in upstate Buffalo, NY.   When confronted by talk show host Lou Dobbs about the costs of out-sourcing [cross-border bodyshopping], she defended TCS for bringing 10 new jobs to New York State [after promising to hire 1000 Americans].   They've actually brought jobs to Buffalo.   Out-sourcing does work both ways.', she said.   She later told Indian officials, 'we are not against all out-sourcing'.   TCS and Infosys aren't the only shady players in the Indian community with close ties to the Clinton family.   She received thousands of dollars for her campaign from imprisoned former Goldman Sachs honcho Rajat Gupta.   Gupta, a major player in one of the largest insider trading busts in history, hired Chelsea Clinton for a six-figure position upon her college graduation..."

evil employers can lay you off, but you don't have to go quietly
"You've seen it in movies: Gangsters are going to kill a guy.   But before they do, they force him to dig his own grave.   Who would go along with that?   Why, during their final moments alive, doesn't the victim avail himself of the chance to die defiantly, with dignity, going to his death with the small pleasure of knowing that his assassin will at least be inconvenienced by the disposal of his body?   That was the question running through my head as I read a story that made my blood boil: Disney World in Orlando, Florida, recently laid off 250 tech workers and had an Indian outsourcing company supply their lower salary replacements with foreign recipients of H-1B visas.   This disgusting practice, which is becoming increasingly common and is the subject of a congressional investigation and at least one law-suit, is illegal.   H-1B visas are only supposed to go to highly educated foreign workers brought to the U.S. to work for employers who 'can't find American citizens to do the job' -- but with 3 out of 4 American techies un- or under-employed, that's never the case..."

Rosemary Jenks: Trans-Pacific Partnership, TATIP, TISA would force USA to increase immigration, take even more jobs from US citizens
"'...What he failed to tell us, and members of congress, is that this whole other agreement, that is largely about immigration, the TiSA, the Trade in Services Agreement, it's about the movement of people across borders to perform services.   And, it's all services.   It goes from garbage collectors to high skilled computer programmers.   And, this agreement, in which it is absolutely clear the United States is a part of, would force the United States to either open up its immigration laws, IOW, allow people from the partner countries, and there are 23 of them just the European Union, to come into the United States and perform services.   In other words, take jobs from Americans.   So, the U.S. trade rep apparently just flat out lied by twisting words to congress about this agreement but I will tell you how Ryan and Orrin Hatch, the House and Senate respective leaders of this push for the mantra of free trade, know full-well about TiSA because they have both mentioned it and it is by name covered by the fast-track bill.'..."

the H-1B visa program is a scam
Beta News
"This is the second of 3 columns relating to the recent story of Disney replacing 250 'IT' workers with foreign workers holding H-1B visas.   Over the years I have written many columns about out-sourcing and the H-1B visa program in particular.   Not wanting to just cover again that old material, this column looks at an important misconception that underlies the whole H-1B problem, then gives the unique view of a long-time reader of this column who has H-1B program experience...   The United States right now has plenty of qualified workers to fill every available position.   If there are indeed exceptional jobs that can't be filled by ANY domestic applicant, there [are] still the [L-1B, E-3, F-1 + OPT, TN, and EB-2 visa programs], which somehow [don't] max-out every year like H-1B.   How can that be if there's a talent shortage? In truth, H-1B has always been unnecessary...   the [successful, productive] domestic 'IT' work-force of today came into their jobs without the very educational programs he suggests are so important.   There was no computer science major when I was an under-graduate, for example.   For that matter, how many non-technical majors have been working [productively and successfully] for years as programmers?   How many successful programmers never finished college or never attended college at all?...   The government administrators who manage the H-1B program, and especially the over-seers who review the cases on whether (the visa applicant) really has skills that are unique and uncommon, are not educated or experienced enough to make such determinations..."

women drop out of STEM studies either can't cut it in highly competitive environments or they simply change their minds about what they want from life
"feminist academic Dr. Emily Grossman...   Even women who graduate with good degrees in science subjects often don't use them: they switch careers in their twenties, abandoning the hard sciences.   In some cases, they simply drop out of the workforce altogether.   This is a disaster for the men who missed out on places, and it's a criminal waste of public funds...   To be fair, plenty of boys drop out at that point as well.   But while attrition is terrible across STEM subjects -- 48% of bachelor's degree students who entered STEM fields between 2003 and 2009 left -- for women the figure is even higher.   Ladies, apparently, find the aggressively competitive nature of these subjects too 'uninviting', so they drop out.   They also, according to a White House report, say the classes are too hard.   Sadly, we're not going to get to Mars or crack commercial nuclear fusion in a nice touchy-feely environment where no one speaks out of turn and everyone's, like, really supportive and kind and no one has to spend long nights with scary textbooks hopped up on Adderall, Mountain Dew [Jolt, pizza] and Doritos.   You see, science is about results..."

Yebbie Booosh not particularly sympathetic to displaced US citizen STEM workers, and still favors increasing already vastly excessive numbers of H-1B visas
"In 2002 and 2003, 'IT' workers at a Siemens unit in Lake Mary, FL had to train their temporary visa-holding replacements -- they had either an L-1 or H-1B visa through an India-based 'IT' services firm.   Mike Emmons was one of the affected [US citizen] 'IT' employees who lost his job.   In 2002 September, Emmons wrote then-governor Bush about it.   'Management has their permanent employees training these Indians to take over their jobs', wrote Emmons, who wanted help.   (The e-mail message is part of an e-mail archive released by Bush covering his years as governor from 1999 to 2007.)...   But Bush does not come across as either supportive or sympathetic to displaced 'IT' workers in a 2013 book, _Immigration Wars: Forging an American Solution_, written with Clint Bolick.   The book argues that the current cap on H-1B visas...is 'hopelessly inadequate'...   Flash forward to 2015, where there has been much news of 'IT' worker displacements at Southern California Edison and Disney.   Bush was asked this week by a reporter to comment about firms using H-1B visa holders to displace U.S. workers.   According to a report in BuzzFeed, this is what Bush said: 'I've actually seen it on Fox, 3 or 4 times, this subject.   I've been curious to know what the full story is...   Sometimes you see things in the news reports, you don't get the full picture.   Maybe that's the case here.'   Asked about Bush's comment, one Disney 'IT' worker who had to train his replacement said that, based on the reactions to the layoffs at his former employer, 'it would almost seem to be political suicide to not side with the American IT worker.   (The worker asked not be identified.)...   'There are very, very few in Washington DC that care for American workers -- less than a handful', said Emmons.   'For the majority of the time politicians are lining their campaign accounts with corporate [executives'] campaign donations' and only talk about helping U.S. workers around election time...   Of Hillary Clinton, the former secretary of state now seeking the Democratic nomination for president, Emmons said that at about the same time he was in touch with Clinton's staff about the outsourcing, Clinton -- then a U.S. senator from New York -- was at the 2003 grand opening of a Tata Consultancy Services office in Buffalo.   Tata was the contractor at Siemens.   'The truth is, once the election is over, they do a 180 and create laws that actually harm American workers.', said Emmons.   'Neither party will do anything to help Americans work in America.'"
153,794 new/initial H-1B visas were actually issued through consular offices in Fiscal Year 2013, and 162,239 new/initial H-1B visas were issued in FY2014.   Over 2,589,226 H-1B visas have been issued from FY1990 to FY2014 according to the State Department annual reports.

"North American Free Trade Agreement negotiated by Clinton in 1994 promised a net gain of 200K American jobs, but is estimated to have cost 692,900 jobs;   Permanent Normal Trade Relations (a.k.a. most favored nation) for [Red China] negotiated by Clinton in 1999 was supposed to support 150K American jobs, but appears to have directly cost 3.2M jobs and contributed to the loss of 6M U.S. manufacturing jobs over the next 6 years;   U.S.-Korea Free Trade Agreement negotiated by [Obummer] in 2012 was supposed to add 70K jobs, but so far has lost 60K American;   Trans-Pacific Partnership negotiated by [Obummer] claims to 'boost U.S. economic growth, support American jobs, and grow Made-in-America exports'.   But the top proponents of the treaty are Hollywood moguls, multi-national corporations that off-shore jobs, and tech companies that want expanded HB-1 visas to import millions of cheap engineers from Asia to replace Americans...   Former Federal Reserve vice-chairman Alan Blinder and former chairman of [president Obummer's] Council of Economic Advisers Alan Krueger warn that 1 in every 4 American jobs are still vulnerable to being off-shored in the foreseeable future, with the most vulnerable being those holding college and professional degrees that earn over $75K..."

"A civilized society's first line of defense is not the law, police and courts but customs, traditions, rules of etiquette and moral values.   These behavioral norms -- mostly transmitted by example, word of mouth and religious teachings -- represent a body of wisdom distilled over the ages through experience and trial and error.   They include important thou-shalt-nots, such as thou shalt not murder, thou shalt not steal and thou shalt not cheat.   They also include all those courtesies that have traditionally been associated with ladylike and gentlemanly conduct.   The failure to fully transmit these values and traditions to subsequent generations represents one of the failings of what journalist Tom Brokaw called _The Greatest Generation_.   People in this so-called great generation, who lived during the trauma of the Great Depression and fought World War 2, not only failed to transmit the moral values of their parents but also are responsible for government programs that will deliver economic chaos..."

Hitlery, Dems/Reds/leftists are counting on voting fraud
"As a former Ohio secretary of state, I've learned a thing or two about vote fraud.   To bring it off in large enough numbers to swing a statewide election, you need two crucial elements: a heavily populated area, so you can manufacture enough votes to count; and a jurisdiction with one-party rule, so you won't be challenged.   Inner cities are the ideal environment.   During the 2012 elections, a total of 58 Philadelphia precincts registered no -- zero -- votes for Mitt Romney, and in 2008, armed thugs chased Republican poll watchers away from the polls [just as Libertarian and Republican poll wathers were ejected from re-counts in 2000]...   On-line registration would make impersonation of legitimate voters and creation of dummy voters much easier.   Automatic registration would be a vote fraud nuclear bomb.   Under the present system, voter registration constitutes a major impediment to voter fraud, because you can't cast a vote without first registering.   If everybody is registered, however, there’s no need to chase down unregistered voters.   A corrupt city administration could simply check the election records, determine who habitually does not show up to vote, and fill out fraudulent absentee ballots in their names.."

Israel's foreign ministry takes a jab at leftist media with cartoon "Open Your Eyes About Gaza=Palestine"
"The Foreign Press Association was less than amused with a cartoon titled 'Open your eyes about Gaza' recently released on Israel's Foreign Ministry YouTube channel and has since been quick to condemn the video.   The cartoon which takes direct aim at foreign journalists who ignorantly report on the Gaza conflict depicts a clueless journalist spinning a sensationalized narrative while completely missing the larger picture.   According to the Times of Israel, the FPA stated that they were 'surprised and alarmed' by the clip mocking the foreign media's coverage of the Gaza conflict.   'At a time when Israel has serious issues to deal with in Iran and Syria, it is disconcerting that the ministry would spend its time producing a 50-second video that [ridicules reporters biased] reporting on a conflict in which 2,100 Palestinians and 72 Israelis were killed.', The FPA stated Monday.   Israel's Foreign Ministry spokesman Emmanuel Nahshon responded to the FPA criticism, explaining the video was intended as more of a lighthearted jab to highlight the fact many journalists lack the willingness to tell the truth.   'The film mocks many journalists with a gentle wink, too many of whom are blind to what is happening around them.', He stated."

the real fast-track threat: trade in services agreement (TISA)
"It is now clear that, even as [RINO losership] have been assuring us that the free flow of labor is not covered in the TPP, it is the entire point of much of TISA.   An article by Daniel Costa and Ron Hira of the Economic Policy Institute wades through the pages of TISA documents posted on WikiLeaks to find provisions on open immigration.   Article 4, concerning 'Entry and Temporary Stay of Natural Persons', states signatories 'shall not maintain or adopt Economic Needs Tests, including labor market tests, as a requirement for a visa or work permit'.   Costa and Hira explain: 'IOW, U.S. laws or regulations limiting guestworkers only to jobs where no U.S. workers were available would violate the terms of the treaty.'   Article 5 goes further, proposing that member nations 'shall take market access and national treatment commitments for intra-corporate transferees, business visitors, and...   contractual service suppliers and independent professionals'.   The draft then goes on to require signatories to 'allow entry and temporary stay of [contractual service suppliers and independent professionals, i.e. bodies shopped]' in a long list of specific fields.   The covered occupational sectors listed include landscape architectural services, medical services, midwife and nursing, business services dealing with maintenance and repair of equipment, general construction, assembly work, refuse disposal and sanitation, hotels and restaurants, and transport services, among others -- precisely areas that use huge numbers of legal and illegal foreign workers...   Costa and Hira point out that 'foreign firms would not be required to advertise jobs to U.S. workers, or to hire U.S. workers if they were equally or better qualified for job openings in their own country'.   They note that the treaty means that 'potentially hundreds of thousands of workers could enter the United States every year... importing cheaper labor to supplant American workers'..."

in cynical ploy for more cheap, young, pliant labor with flexible ethics, Mark Zuckerberg encourages and rewards illegal alien invasion
Cheryl K. Chumley: World Net Daily
Mark Krikorian: National Review
"Adding to this organizational failure is the increasing attention on the tech industry's manipulation of immigration policy -- especially the H-1b program for importing cheap software drones -- when there's no shortage of tech workers.   Over the past year, hundreds of American tech workers have been fired and subjected to the further humiliation of being forced, as a condition of the severance package, to train their foreign replacements.   Southern California Edison was the first to hit the news for this conduct; Fossil also replaced its Americans with foreigners.   The most notable example happened at Disney, whose theme-parks division in October replaced some 250 American workers with cheaper foreigners on visas, whom the Americans had to train to do their jobs...   Washington [DC] also noticed, with a bipartisan group of ten senators demanding an investigation of the firings, causing the Labor Department [DoL] to reverse an earlier decision not to look into the matter.   (The probe is not likely to uncover any wrongdoing, because current law allows employers to use the H-1b program to replace U.S. workers, despite false claims to the contrary by H-1b boosters.)   What are tech billionaires looking for cheaper [more pliant, less ethically principled] imported labor to do?...   In another year or two, the Today Show will make it a regular feature and the Times will run a 6-part series on the commemoration every June.   But none of that would happen if Zuckerberg called his effort by a more accurate name: Cheap Foreign Labor Month."

NYTimes almost got it right this time on H-1Bs
"In 1998, congress explicitly made it legal to replace Americans with H-1B workers in nearly all circumstances.   In 2004, congress explicitly gave employers the ability to pay H-1B workers extremely low wages.   When the Times writes, 'A mass influx of foreigners doing the jobs of the workers they displace is clearly not what the law intended', they are completely wrong.   What happened at Southern California Edison and Walt Disney World was by careful design; not accident.   In enacting such provisions, congress hoped that the news media would continue to ignore these displacements of American workers.   With only a very few exceptions, congressmen calling for investigations are expressing outrage over gambling at Rick's.   Second, the Times claims that needed reforms were 'contained in a senate bill to overhaul the immigration system'.   WRONG.   S744 originally contained some largely symbolic provisions to address H-1B abuse.   They were stripped from the bill thanks largely to the efforts of senator Orrin Hatch (R-UT).   S744 contained no provisions whatsoever to reform H-1B visas, unless you consider giving employers access to an effectively unlimited number of foreign workers 'reform'.   The Times editorial board's claim that 'worker protection has always been a core ideal of comprehensive immigration reform' is delusional.   The Times editorial board has made the first step: Recognizing abuse in the immigration system.   They need to take the next step: Read a bill before you endorse it."

"'Without a doubt, there are a number of enablers, but the federal judiciary is a central driver...   The federal judiciary has largely abandoned any pretext of following the drafters' intent with respect to the Constitution and its amendments as applied to same-sex marriage.   Apparently, these judges believe the oath they have taken requires no deference to the Constitution's plain meaning.'...   'Granted, some judges believe that they are compelled to follow the dictates of [appellate and 'supreme'] courts, even if those decisions violate the written Constitution.', he continued.   'This is a poor excuse, as the judge's oath is to the Constitution, not to some twisted interpretation of it.   While indefensible, this approach stands in contrast to the illegitimacy of other members of the federal judiciary who spin dozens of pages of judicial decisions, ginning up creative and largely illogical reasons for why constitutional language -- drafted when homosexuality was criminalized throughout the United States -- somehow now compels protection of same-sex marriage and sodomy.'   His comments were made in a series of commentaries about the looming U.S. Supreme Court decision in a case organized and funded by the the United States Justice Foundation..."

"American Transparency" exposed crony socialist boondoggle for Export-Import insiders
"In a report that is truly shocking, even by today's standards of insider pillaging of the American Treasury, openthebooks.com, a project of American Transparency, has documented how large private banks processed more than $127G in Ex-Im supported transactions since 2007, while having an ownership stake in the private bank empowered to trade on the guaranteed loan portfolio of Ex-Im.   Here's how it works according to the openthebooks.com report: Ex-Im mitigates all credit risk to private banks by guaranteeing payments from foreign importers.   The big banks use this [tax-victim] guarantee to collect fees and profits with very limited downside.   So far, they've avoided intense scrutiny.   They include Citibank, JPMorgan Chase, New York Mellon, Deutsche, Bank of America, and many others...   The 'spun-off' private bank is the Private Export Funding Corporation (PEFCO).   It's incorporated in Delaware and chartered to trade only in products bearing a full Ex-Im guarantee (or U.S. Treasury equivalent)...   So PEFCO, is owned by some of the largest beneficiaries of Ex-Im support...   Even in Angola, where the people face malnourishment and starvation, PEFCO provided the long-term loan to the state-owned Ministry of Finance for the $256M purchase of Boeing airplanes with an Ex-Im guarantee.   How convenient that Boeing owns 17% of PEFCO...   the former Ex-Im Chief Operating Officer John McAdams recently joined the PEFCO board and Rita Rodriquez, a former Ex-Im Bank director is also a PEFCO director.   The top corporate officers at Boeing, [Bank of India], JP Morgan, Citizens Financial, Citibank, and Mellon are also directors at PEFCO..."

"In the words of former senator Fritz Hollings, the entire delegation viewed [this perversion of] free trade as 'the commercial equivalent of unilateral disarmament'.   As a free-market conservative, free trade is in my DNA.   It is a trait shared by many of my former colleagues in congress today, and they are correct that perfection is usually unattainable in the legislative process.   That is why I voted in favor of granting President Bush trade promotion authority (TPA) in 2002 even though that bill contained what we now know is an egregiously ineffective welfare program [with a large dose of crony socialist political graft] -- Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA)...   Research by The Heritage Foundation and many others shows that TAA does not help participants get back on their feet.   An evaluation by Mathmatica found the program financially hurt not only the [tax-victims] but even the participants themselves.   The Government Accountability Office [GAO] confirmed these retrained workers make less money than their non-TAA-assisted counterparts..."

senator Jeff Sessions: Trans-Pacific Partnership like the worst aspects of the EU, a scheme worse than any such deal USA has ever seen before (except maybe the UN)
"Senator Jeff Sessions (R-AL) has issued yet another clarion call to House Republicans urging them to abandon GOP [losership's] desperate ploys to bring [TPP, TATIP and TISA] back to life and instead vote against Trade Promotion Authority (TPA) and stop [president Obummer] from getting even more power in his final years in office...   'It is essential that there be no misunderstanding: fast-track preapproves the formation of not only the unprecedentedly large Trans-Pacific Partnership, but an unlimited number of such agreements over the next six years.', Sessions said.   'Those pacts include three of the most ambitious ever contemplated.   After TPP comes the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) between the United States and the European Union, followed by the Trade in Services Agreement (TiSA), seeking as one its goals labor mobility among more than 50 nations.   Together, these 3 international compacts encompass three-fourths of the world's GDP.   Including the nations whose membership is being courted for after enactment, the countries involved would encompass nearly 90% of global GDP.   Yet, through fast-track [TPA], congress will have authorized the president to ink these deals before a page of them has been made public.   Then, the executive sends congress implementing legislation to change U.S. law -- legislation which cannot be amended, cannot be filibustered, and will not be subjected to the Constitutional requirement for a two-thirds treaty vote.'...   'According to the European Commission, the TiSA agreement -- which most House and senate members did not know about when they voted -- will follow in the foot-steps of the WTO's [terrible] Trade in Services Provisions, which has already inhibited the U.S. from making needed immigration changes.', Sessions said.   'The European Commission says the EU wants as many countries as possible to join the agreement.   We have already seen how the EU has curtailed sovereignty in Europe; we do not want to follow in its foot-steps.'..."

"Adolf Hitler started World War 2 by attacking Poland on 1939 September 1.   Nazi Germany moved only after it had already remilitarized the Rhineland, absorbed Austria and dismantled Czechoslovakia.   Before the outbreak of the war, Hitler's new Third Reich had created the largest German-speaking nation in European history.   Well before the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Imperial Japanese government had redrawn the map of Asia and the Pacific.   Japan had occupied or annexed Indochina, Korea, Manchuria and Taiwan, in addition to swaths of coastal China.   Attacking Hawaii, the Philippines, Hong Kong, Malaysia and Indonesia was merely the logical 1941 follow-up to more than a decade of Japanese aggression...   The Islamic State plans to take Baghdad to make it the capital of a radical Sunni caliphate from what is left of Syria and Iraq.   Its enemy, theocratic Iran, is forging its own Shiite empire.   Through its proxies, Iran now effectively runs much of Iraq, Lebanon, Syria and Yemen.   When Teheran [is ready to use] a nuclear bomb, it will urge on Shiite minorities to overthrow the Sunni monarchies in the rich, oil-exporting Persian Gulf nations...   As in the 1930s, [a non-interentionist] United States is again watching the new map unfold from the sidelines..."

Obummer is correct on something; his father was not an "immigrant"
"[President Barack Hussein Obummer] recently recognized the so-called 'Immigrant Heritage Month' -- a phony creation of cheap labor lobbyists...   The unofficial designation is simply a facade designed to advance [Obummer's] amnesty agenda and help companies obtain cheap tech workers from abroad.   During his weekly address on the subject, Obama promised to push for more immigration despite high unemployment, but also made an admission that highlights the inaccurate language used all too often in the immigration debate.   Without realizing it, [Obummer] supported those of us who prefer use of accurate terminology when discussing immigration.   [Obummer] noted that his 'father was not an immigrant'.   This is true.   An 'immigrant' as defined by Merriam-Webster, is a person who moves to a country to take up 'permanent residence'.   As a foreigner in the United States on a temporary basis with a student visa, Barack Obama i, was an alien.   As explained in federal law, an alien is 'any person not a citizen or national of the United States'.   This is not a pejorative -- the term allows for clear and precise communication about an often convoluted and confusing topic.   Similarly, a foreigner visiting the United States as a tourist is an alien, as are temporary workers.   Foreigners in the country illegally are appropriately referred to as illegal aliens..."

Disney and illusion: the great H-1B visa heist
"Now we learn that another Disney division, Disney ABC Television group, which had told about 30 of its own tech workers that they were also being replaced, has rescinded the move.   The public outcry needed to be calmed.   But no one expects Disney to back away from H-1Bs...   the story quotes University of California-Davis computer science professor Norman Matloff, who says most H-1B workers are 'ordinary people doing ordinary work'.   Part of the ordinary work of those involved in pulling off the Great H-1B Visa Heist is to circumvent the often-flimsy rules to protect the interests of American workers.   As Matloff notes [quoting a 2000-04-24 article by Joel Stewart in _Immigration Daily_], the corporations 'have an arsenal of legal means to reject all U.S. workers who apply'.   The article also draws on the work of Michael Teitelbaum, whose article last year for _The Atlantic_, 'The Myth of the Science and Engineering Shortage' (drawn from his latest book, _Falling Behind?: Boom, Bust, and the Global Race for Scientific Talent_), debunks the myth that American students are shunning the STEM fields.   As the NYRB reports, Teitelbaum 'makes a convincing case that even now the U.S.A. has all the high-tech brains and bodies it needs, or at least that the economy can absorb'.   Here is an excerpt from the NYRB piece that explains what's at work in the minds of corporate executives who moan that they must have foreign workers because of a dreadful shortage of Americans who can cut the tech mustard: 'Most businesses prefer having an oversupply of workers, in part to keep those on board fearful lest they be replaced.   And if less money goes to the rank and file, that often means that more money is available for the executive floors.   In Matloff's view, the dramatic warnings about scarcities of skills are actually all about an industry wanting to lower wages [and younger, more pliant, more ethically flexible employees].'"

PEP rallies diffuse responsibility at US ICE
"Immigration and Customs Enforcement (US ICE) director Sarah Saldana recently issued an all-hands e-mail broadcast to US ICE employees about the new Priority Enforcement Program (PEP).   She was perhaps responding to criticism that the program, announced by Department of Homeland Security (DHS) secretary Jeh Johnson to replace the Secure Communities program he ordered dismantled in November, was amorphous and unexplained, or perhaps she was reacting to the filing of a Freedom of Information Act law-suit against the government to discover the detailed workings of PEP.   The tone of the e-mail is part PEP rally (sorry) and part encouragement to US ICE employees to embrace the program, which implicitly suggests that either they don't, or that, like the public, they can't figure out what it is; exactly the dearth of information that prompted the law-suit to begin with.   A copy of Saldana's e-mail can be seen here, but be forewarned it's written in the arcane language of 'Blatherskite', now mostly known only to politicians, political appointees, and unwillingly but of necessity, to their bureaucratic minions.   Translated, the email message seems to say this:     'The [Obummer regime] has really screwed up in the past couple of years, as a result of which US ICE's long-time law enforcement partners have abandoned us in droves, leaving you guys high and dry when it comes to getting any kind of cooperation from state and local law enforcement.   Oops.   To cap off the screw-ups, we jettisoned Secure Communities in favor of the absurdly named PEP, which secretary Johnson and I have been scrambling to persuade these former partners who abandoned us is a good program -- so good, in fact, that like a chameleon it can change colors to be anything they want it to be.   But we don't seem to have convinced a lot of people, so now we're dumping this into your laps so that there will be someone to blame when it all heads south.   Pay particular attention, you field office directors, 'cause we've got you in our sights!   We've prepared some generic and pretty useless materials to help you convince your fellow law enforcement types even though we couldn't and, oh BTW, to be sure you understand your directors aren't the only ones on the hook, we've also prepared a generic course you must take and pass on-line ASAP, as you sally forth on this Forlorn Hope.   Good luck, buena suerte, and bon chance; you're gonna need it.'"

the rising of the beast: Trans-Pacific Partnership is the planned Communist utopian dream, the real world's nightmare
Doug Hagmann: Canada Free Press
"In sum and substance, the TPP appears to be one of the most important end-game mechanisms necessary to usher in a state of global governance.   The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) and its agent of tyrannical empowerment, the Trade Promotion Authority (TPA) exists today as the most overt and sinister example of the Communist utopian dream of a one world government...   There have been several leaks and allegations by those privy to the voluminous document that it extends well beyond trade and is more of an international treaty that will adversely impact our national sovereignty and individual rights...   Fast Track Negotiating Authority, as it was formerly known, prohibits congress from amending (or filibustering) any trade deal created by the President.   It was first written into the Trade Act of 1974, Section 151–154 (19 U.S.C. 2191–2194) and passed by congress.   Set to expire in 1980, it was extended for another 8 years under the Trade Agreements Act of 1979.   In 1988, the Fast Track Negotiating Authority was renewed again, this time serving as the mechanism that ushered in the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), the World Trade Organization (WTO), and ultimately the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and the U.S.-Canada Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA).   Note that this was the general time period of the George H.W. Bush administration...   An assessment of what we know suggests that some components of the TPP includes various unpopular iterations of initiatives such as SOPA, PIPA, ACTA, the SPP, NAU, internet regulation, and even [ObummerDoesn'tCare] are included within the framework of the TPP.   This secret agreement also calls for restrictions to be placed on 'intellectual property defined as trademarks, patents, copyrights and geopolitical indicators'.   It also details U.S. corporate [executive] control regarding the three most important things to mankind: health, land use, and the environment..."

senator Ted Cruz has introduced Immigration Slush Fund Elimination Act
"...'...The federal government should not be in the business of looting the wallets of those who followed the law and came here legally to fund the president's illegal and unconstitutional amnesty.   This bill will cut off DHS’s credit card and put Congress back in charge of funding the agencies responsible for immigration.'   Specifically the Immigration Slush Fund Elimination Act proposes the following:   End DHS's ability to fund lawlessness.   The [Obummer regime's] DHS, via U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), has admitted it uses so-called offsetting accounts (which function like agency checking accounts) to take the fees it charges legal immigrants and use them to fund amnesty and other activities that Congress has not authorized.   In recent congressional testimony, USCIS chief-financial-officer Joseph Moore confirmed that USCIS can access more than $1G in fee-based funding, and that it used those funds to pay for an unauthorized amnesty processing center in Arlington, VA.   Eliminating the ability of USCIS to use the money it collects to support amnesty and other unauthorized activities is a first step toward reining in the executive branch's lawless approach to immigration.   Restore congressional authority over DHS and immigration issues.   By eliminating the offsetting accounts under USCIS's control, congress would end USCIS's ability to self-fund.   This would reduce USCIS's ability to ignore the people's representatives and restore respect for the Constitution's separation of powers and the legislative power of the purse.   Eliminate DHS's profit incentive, which distracts from the agency's core national security mission..."

House GOP losership again attack Americans
"The battle over granting [Obummer] Trade Promotion Authority (TPA) and [Obummer's] imminent plan to agree to the disastrous Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) global governance treaty has exposed just how deeply in thrall to Big Business [executives] are speaker John Boehner and his House [losership] team.   The battle over TPA and the rules for consideration and re-consideration of the trade bill package has rent the House Republican Conference and further alienated millions of populist conservative voters from the Republican Party.   But no matter, all Boehner and his allies seem to care about is granting Big Business a free hand to globalize the U.S. economy and the American workforce and in the process drive down the standard of living for America's hard-pressed working families.   To overcome the opposition of conservative House members to this attack on the voters they were elected to represent, Boehner has conducted a scorched earth campaign that would have been considered to be an outrageous breach of House GOP conference comity just a few years ago...   Several of the members who voted against the rule on Friday hold gavels, including representatives Jim Bridenstine, Louie Gohmert, Mark Meadows, and John Fleming.   In a rational world House leaders would be 'first among equals' and would build consensus among the House Republican Conference for major bills, such as TPA, TAA and the Trans-Pacific Partnership.   And if they couldn't find consensus they would not proceed.   But the House Republican Conference under the [losership] of John Boehner, Kevin McCarthy and Steve Scalise is not a rational world.   Nor is it a place where the interests of the grassroots limited government constitutional conservatives who elect the majority of House Republicans are really represented.   Rather, it is a place where a small clique of oligarchs, Boehner, McCarthy, Scalise and their henchmen, such as Paul Ryan, dictate to the rest of the House Republicans what will happen, and punish them like children if they don't knuckle-under.   Sooner or later conservatives must make a stand against this kind of [losership] lest standing for principle on any issue that is at variance with the Big Business agenda becomes a firing offense and the House Republican Conference is reduced to being nothing more than a collection of toadies for the axis of Wall Street - Washington DC - [corrupt] Sili Valley billionaires who are the invisible hands behind Boehner, McCarthy, Scalise and Ryan."

"'From the time I was 8 years old until I was 12, I was sexually assaulted and raped by Dennis Pegg.', said Clark Fredericks, a former scout who spoke in a tense Newton, New Jersey, courtroom about the reasons for his killing.   Pegg also served as a Sussex sheriff's officer, NBC New York reported.   He was killed 3 years ago...   Fredericks said he kept silent about the rapes, despite the fact his best friend, Jeff, was allegedly one of Pegg's victims, too.   Jeff committed suicide in 1983, Fredericks said...   Part of the reason Fredericks said he kept silent was because he didn't think anyone would believe him, due to Pegg's police badge, and part was due to fear.   'Dennis Pegg controlled me by torturing and killing animals in front of me, saying he would do the same to me if I told anyone about our secret.', Fredericks said...   The court-room broke into applause after Fredericks finished testifying, shocking the prosecutor...   Meanwhile, family and friends in the court-room in support of Fredericks said others had reported Pegg as an abuser years ago, but the charges never stuck."

Over four years, The Chicago Tribune recently reported, only 4 percent of all 17,700 complaints against Chicago police were upheld. In those rare instances, the punishment was the equivalent of a disappointed sigh. Of the few cops found to have abused citizens, nearly half got off with verbal reprimands, and only a dozen were fired. Even a court finding of misconduct doesn't count for much.

Boehner, McConnell working for the Dems/Reds/leftists
paraphrasing in part: "While Obummer is counting on RINOs to save his legacy, he is spitting in their faces, and trampling the US constitution on eery other issue.   Whether Obummer can recover his 'legacy' by next November will probably determine which party controls the White House in 2017...   Currently, Barack Hussein Obummer is on his face.   But, if the GOP Republican losership can pick him up by reincarnating fast-track, he may be able to replicate Reagan's singular electoral achievement.   So why would the congressional Republican leadership lead an initiative for the Dems/Reds/leftists?   And why would they push relentlessly -- punishing Republicans for voting their own conscience -- after the losership's efforts have been condemned by the citizenry?   It's time to derail fast-track.   And the first step is for every GOP congressmen to vote against the rule to enable it.   The message is clear: Congressmen: If you think fast-track is a disaster, don't support it on the critical vote -- the vote on the rule.   Handing Barack Hussein Obummer a legacy-creating victory is not worth the glowing main-stream media press which the GOP congressional losership covets.   Rest assured: That love affair will be ephemeral."

"The path of destruction House Ways and Means Committee chairman Paul Ryan (R-WI) is blazing to sneak [TPA, TPP, TATIP & TISA] past unsuspecting Americans is getting longer and wider.   Now it's become clear he's using fire-fighters, of all people, to get it done...   Ryan needed to gut a previous bill that has passed the House and senate and then insert [TPA] into it...   'On behalf of more than 300K professional fire fighters and emergency medical personnel, I strongly urge you to oppose HRes321 which attaches Trade Promotion Authority to HR2146, the Defending Public Safety Employees Retirement Act', Harold Schaitberger, the general president of the International Association of Fire Fighters, wrote to all members of congress on Thursday morning..."

representative John Fleming challenges John Boehner for pushing rotten Obummer agenda
"Representative John Fleming questioned why House speaker John Boehner and other top Republicans worked feverishly to resuscitate [president Barack Hussein Obummer's] trade agenda Thursday when 'this is a president who criticizes America and seeks to harm America while giving a pass to other countries'.   'What's mystifying to me is why our House [losership], speaker Boehner, want to hand [president Barack Hussein Obummer] a huge political victory and at the same time give him a huge new tool that he can use to damage Americans and damage the America economy?', the Louisiana Republican asked in an interview.   Fleming's question followed the House voting 218-208 to grant [Obummer] fast-track authority to negotiate trade agreements with foreign nations [without the constitutionally-required two-thirds approval by the senate]...   'Why would we want to do that, when this man has proven over and over again, through many of his decisions, that he's perfectly willing to harm American workers' jobs, culture and many other aspects of American life?', Fleming asked.   'And now, we're just handing him just another huge opportunity to do that.'...   Fleming was among the 50 Republicans voting against the authority.   They, like many Democrats, have argued that fast track would ship even more American jobs over-seas...   Other Republicans argued that the trade deals [violate] the U.S. Constitution, which requires that international treaties be ratified by a two-thirds vote of the senate.   'This is the only leverage that we've had.', California representative Duncan Hunter, who also opposed the fast track, told Sean Hannity on his radio program after the vote...   West Virginia representative David McKinley... 'We've seen how unfair trade has crippled industry and industry in our area: steel, chemicals, pottery, glassware, and chinaware.'...   Oklahoma representative Jim Bridenstine cited the [Obummer regime's] 'abysmal record of negotiating agreements with foreign nations' in opposing fast track...   But Alabama senator Jeff Sessions reiterated his opposition to giving [Obummer] fast track, telling Hannity that other trade agreements waiting to be negotiated could bring further harm to the U.S. economy..."

Ann Coulter: media ignore heinous crimes committed by both legal immigrants and illegal aliens in the USA
Ian Hanchett: Breitbart (with video)
"Ingraham: I notice that you're not getting the usual media coverage of your book.   Although, it goes to number two anyway.   So, what's going on out there in book land with this particular topic? [4:30]     Coulter: I do think it's the topic.   The main-stream media isn't wildly about interviewing me any time, but more than most the media, the left, the Republicans, and the Democrats, just don't want Americans thinking about what they're doing to the country.   And, you see with immigration how much the media culture determines what people think about and what they form opinions on.   You could walk into any bar and ask people for their opinion on gay 'marriage' or Ferguson and everybody is going to have an opinion.   But, most people don't even think about immigration until it comes to their town and suddenly their taxes are going up and there's no money for the Christmas pageant...   All the money is going to immigrant services now.   So, when it directly impacts your community, then people notice, which is why, basically, the rest of my tour will be entirely in California, which is what this entire country will be if something isn't done about legal immigration.   I mean, even Republicans, it's a silicone chip in their brain that seems to make them say, of course, we love legal immigration; no, no, other than my first chapter, which is about amnesty, because if that ever goes through the country is over within 5 years.   That's just the sword hanging above our heads, but all the cases I talk about, which are a lot of cases of child rape in particular, were bringing in very primitive cultures and child rape cases that you'll be shocked you didn't know about -- they're hidden by the media. [4:43]...   For one thing, we've gotten that promise many times before and every time it's been done it's like, 'Yes, okay, Republicans.   You raise taxes and we'll cut spending.'   And, over and over again the taxes go up, the spending cuts never come.   It's the same thing with, 'we're going to secure that border, but we just need to bring in more guest-workers and issue more H-1B [and E-3, and L-1B, and F-1+OPT...] visas and legalize the illegal immigrants already here'.   No, it's never going to happen and it's crazy to even talk about it.   It is like the old argument we have had on abortion for so long where we have to discuss all of our time discussing abortion in the case of rape and incest; no, no we want to spend an equal or more, proportional amount of time, talking about abortions that don't involve rape and incest and that's 99% of them.   Similarly, it's just tendentious to talk about what we're going to do with the illegals already here until you have a secure border.   Especially when these are the exact same people who, half the time, are saying 'Fences don't work.'   It's like being told wheels don't work.   What are you talking about? It worked for centuries! [8:34]"

after having posted Islamic Circle of North America bill-board ads, Clear Channel refused American Freedom Defense Initiative bill-board counter-ads
"ICNA is dedicated to 'establishing a place for Islam in America' -- which means a place for jihad and a place for Sharia.   ICNA, like the Hamas-tied Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), is a terror front group whose 'Muslim advocacy' front masks their true Islamic supremacist agenda.   Despite the carefully constructed myth surrounding Muslim Brotherhood groups in America, advanced by a hostile and pro-jihadist media, the truth about these subversives is out there.   ICNA works closely with radical Islamic organizations and invites radical speakers to its conferences.   It was named in the Muslim Brotherhood document -- entitled 'An Explanatory Memorandum on the General Strategic Goal for the Group in North America' -- as one of the Brotherhood's 29 likeminded 'organizations of our friends' that shared the common goal of destroying America and turning it into a Muslim nation.   These 'friends' were identified by the Brotherhood as groups that could help teach Muslims 'that their work in America is a kind of grand Jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and sabotaging its miserable house by their hands...so that...Allah's religion [Islam] is made victorious over all other religions.'...   'I have been made victorious through terror' came from Sahih Bukhari 2977.   'I have seen that the majority of the dwellers of Hell-fire were you (women)' is from Sahih Bukhari 304, and 'War is deceit' comes from Sahih Bukhari 3029..."

proposed budget cuts title x funding to abortionists
"Section 229 of the budget bill states that: 'None of the funds appropriated in this Act may be used to carry out Title X of the PHS [Public Health Service] Act.'...   According to Planned Parenthood’s 2013 annual report, abortions made up 94% of the group’s pregnancy services...   The report, which was released in March, found that Planned Parenthood received $1.5G in combined state and federal taxpayer dollars between 2010 and 2012.   It received $201M from the Title X family planning program..."

warmist hysterics are a threat to mankind
"The Industrial Revolution was a great boon to humankind.   Consider the unrelieved misery -- the disease, the poverty, the illiteracy -- before around 1800, when if you weren't an aristocrat, a general or a bishop, your life was probably nasty, brutish, and short.   'The average person in the world of 1800 was no better off than the average person of 100KBCE.', Gregory Clark wrote in his [2007] book _A Farewell to Alms: A Brief Economic History of the World_.   'Life expectancy was no higher in 1800 than for hunter-gatherers: 30 to 35 years.   Stature, a measure both of the quality of diet and of children's exposure to disease, was higher in the Stone Age than in 1800.'   But at least when everyone died at a much earlier age, we weren't engaging in the ravages of the planet that so exercise Francis.   This sinful assault on the earth, by the way, largely consisted in taking otherwise completely useless glop from the ground and using it to power economic and technical advances that enriched average people beyond anyone's imagining.   This is obviously a secular miracle of the highest order.   And the bounty hasn't ended.   Something like a billion people have been lifted out of poverty in places like India and [Red China] in recent decades as they have embraced markets and global trade.   The Pope should be delighted..."

  "Against the broader background of world history, however, a very different lesson might be that no people of any color can be trusted with unbridled power over any other people, for such power has been grossly abused by whatever race, class, or political authority has held that power, whether under ancient despotism or modern totalitarianism, as well as under serfdom, slavery, or other forms of oppression." --- Thomas Sowell _Black Rednecks & White Liberals_ pg168

"Whooping cough, smallpox, measles and tuberculosis, once enough to send American communities into paroxysms of fear through their very mention, are essentially exterminated, right?   And the U.S.A. is largely protected from exotics like Ebola, Chikungunya, Chagas disease, Dengue fever and others by distance and time, correct?   Not really, as Jane Orient, MD... One of the newest is MERS, the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome, which was first found in the Arabian Peninsula but already has spread to at least 20 other nations, including the United States..."

watch-dogs of college education rarely bite
Andrea Fuller & Douglas Belkin: Wall Street Journal
"Nearly 350 out of more than 1,500 4-year colleges now accredited by 1 of 6 regional commissions have a lower graduation rate or higher student-loan default rate than the average among the colleges that were banished by the same accreditors since 2000, the Journal's analysis shows...   Federal student loans and grants are for the 2013-14 award year.   Each college's total includes programs such as Stafford Loans, Parent PLUS loans, Pell Grants and Federal Work-Study.   Campus-based programs like work-study include portions of funding provided by the college.   Aid can be aimed at graduate or under-graduate students."

  "London Bridge, begun in 1176 by a local chaplain named Peter of Colechurch and partly financed by a thousand-mark gift from the papal legate, became the picturesque heart of the city, its roadway loaded with a double row of structures of varying sizes and purposes.   A less sophisticated design than the Pont d'Avignon, London Bridge was supported by 19 semi-circular stone arches, no 2 quite alike, built summer after summer as money was available, until completion in 1209.   Its massive piers so constricted the tidal Thames that piloting a boat through at high water became a sporting proposition known as 'shooting the bridge'.   A small draw span, included as a defensive measure, was too narrow to allow most boats to pass.   London boat-men adopted the expedient, quidkly copied elsewhere, of removable masts for squeezing under the bridge.   But the occasional use of the draw-span to pass narrow-hulled, fixed-mast craft may have been the first application anywhere of the draw-bridge to navigation." --- Frances Gies & Joseph Gies 1994, 2010 _Cathedral, Forge, and WaterWheel: Technology and Invention in the Middle Ages_ pp151-152 (citing Joseph Gies 1963 _Bridges and Men_ pp34-41)

  "Out of evey 100 new ideas 99 or more will probably be inferior to the traditional responses which they propose to replace. No 1 man, however brillian or well-informed, can come in 1 life-time to such fullness of understanding as to safely judge & dismiss the customs or institutions of his society, for these are the wisdom of generations after centuries of experiment in the laboratory of history." --- Will & Ariel Durant 1968 _The Lessons of History_ pg 35 (quoted in Thomas Sowell 1995 _The Vision of the Anointed_ pg 112)

Except that computer people use 2 as a base raised to multiples of powers of 10, instead of 10 raised to multiples of powers of 3 because powers of 2 are handier for them, but they also want to stay somewhat close to the values of 10 most folks are used to.
