Hotel California

red for Reagan and H.W. Bush, but NO more. California's gone very blue in Presidential elections ever since. For those who don't remember, 187 was an attempt by conservatives to deny schooling and healthcare to illegal immigrant children. It outraged MANY of all backgrounds, but it especially activated the Hispanics it was aimed at; and although it was later voided as unconstitutional, the damage it did to the GOP lives on. If no 187, we might well have woke up to a President-Elect ...

I have just booked our family into a hotel, similar to the Wisconsin Dells for Christmas Eve/Day. When I called, the attendant said that they have a lot of availability for that weekend. We just booked a standard room. Has anyone ever asked for an upgrade into a fancier room and gotten it? The big question is HOW on earth do you do it???? ...

supposedly being allied with Putin or claims that the Russians hacked the DNC email, she should really reflect on her own staff’s actions in aiding and abetting Putin’s intelligence gathering. Russian TV reports that the FBI discovered another security violation when US Diplomatic Security (DS) found a classified document from then Sec State Clinton’s briefing book left behind in a Russian hotel room. Monica Hanley, one of Hillary’s former aides, was given a diplomatic pouch with the ...

Can all you Obama supporters fit there? I would like to make that suggestion -- take that state. You will fit in with the Hollywood clan. You will be surrounded by the rich that you hate, but that you also want the money of. Ought to work out great. ...

When Nuance laid off all California MTs, I began to wonder what was happening but that was employees. TTS wrote me and said they will not hire any from California. I have applied to numerous jobs and hardly a word. I have passed tests at 96% and still, have not been hired. I purposefully applied somewhere and left off my address. I saw there were 400 hits so I figured I would not hear from them. Today I got an email asking, "Where are you located?" Am I correc ...

How awful this whole thing is. It is apparent that the school officials just wanted to avoid any unrest, but they ended up setting the stage anyway. I don't think they could have avoided it no matter what they did, but it seems it would have been much better if they had announced that there would probably be those who choose to wear the American flag. The students should have been counseled on how to handle situations such as these as a group, and made fully aware of the c ...

What a crazy political climate in that state. I feel for ya'. Banks were mandated to make these risky loans, then were asked to absorb the financial loss. California decided to use taxpayer money to pay those mortgages. Unbelievable. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/08/20/us-taxpayers-bailout-california-homeowners-as-banks-fail-to-pay-their-share/ ...

So, I'm new to this forum and to MT. Looking for legit work and i see InScribe then I click on the site and : Inscribe is not currently accepting Radiology applications or applications from any resident of the state of California. Can anyone enlighten me as to what is the reasoning behind this? Any suggestions to a really good company to work for? ...

that many of the exchange plans will not have the same doctors as the non-exchange plans. Blue Shield will only offer 50% of the doctors and only 40% of the hospitals as the same non-exchange plans. I guess you have to sign up for it before you know what's in it. Pun intended. The silver lining to all of this is that market forces are about to be re-introduced into the health CARE industry. I've read about doctors opening cash only clinics, and like Medicare will pass on Obamaca ...

I am thinking of letting go of my terrible work insurance where the premiums are nearly $200 per month. I can quailfy for subsidies from Obamacare because my income is so disgustingly low. I'm wondering if anyone has trouble with getting prescriptions covered? Do you have to pay full price for them and are those costs rolled into the deductible? Did you have to change doctors? I believe I would have to do that if I select the bronze plan. I figured out the cost of my current premiums and ...

If you live in California, have a job and pay taxes Governor Jerry Brown would like you to know that you’re a freeloader and he’s tired of your complaining. In a speech in Orange County last week Brown responded to criticism over a new $52 billion tax hike that was hastily rammed through Sacramento by the Democrat supermajority over the objections of taxpayers across the state. Democrat Senator Josh Newman narrowly defeated Republican Ling Ling Chang in Novembe ...

will take over the fight for our planet. Leave it to the states is what the president says about a lot of things yet: "Trump has ordered a reassessment of national fuel-efficiency rules set under President Barack Obama and suggested he might take away the right of California and other states to set their own tailpipe emission rules. The president says the requirements are too onerous on the car companies and will kill jobs. California leaders argue that consumers worldwide are demanding th ...

I should not be surprised. Leave it to the idiots in California. The California Supreme Court has reversed a lower court holding and sided with California Regents and illegal aliens on the issue of in-state tuition breaks. Under the latest ruling, California colleges (California State University, the University of California, and California Community Colleges) have been given the green light to offer tuition breaks to illegal aliens and deny the same benefit to U.S. citizens from ...

The link posted is for the video. Part of the story is from another news source. The unmistakable contrail of a missile streaking into the California sunset was captured on video last night by a KCBS news helicopter flying over Los Angeles at around 5 p.m. Pacific time. The missile firing drew more attention when local news stations were told by Navy and Air Force officials that they did not launch a missile last night. Flying above Los Angeles, the crew aboard the helicopter estimate ...

Hello out there...my 22-year-old is home from college this summer and is going to take care of my neighbor's 2 daughters, ages 5 and 6, a couple of days a week probably for around 8 hours a day. What would be a good rate for her to charge? It's been so long, I don't even have a clue. I used to do daycare before my illustrious transcription career so I know people can't pay a normal minimum wage. Would 5/hr be good? Any suggestions would be greatl ...

but I miss it and find the more insular, mostly white Christian town I live in now sadly lacking in important ways. My society in L.A. was mostly white, mostly born and raised there, but with plenty of variety, like our Japanese-American neighbors, the black guy in the next office with a passion for French antiques, a Turkish friend whose wistful descripions of the farm she grew up on sound like a little paradise, the accountant who's probably gay, a Yemeni-American manager with a terrific ...

Excerpt from the NY Times article, link at bottom. "As the immigration debate simmers in Washington, California Republicans face a very different reality than a majority of their party colleagues, who elsewhere largely represent districts that are overwhelmingly white. More than half of California’s 15 Republican members of Congress have districts that are at least 30 percent Latino, making them potentially vulnerable to Democratic challenges and prime targets for those pushing for ...

The 2009 stimulus package funded millions of dollars for safety improvements for a dam in California that was in “good shape,” but not to the Oroville Dam that is now on the verge of a spillway crisis. Nearly 200,000 residents north of Sacramento were ordered to evacuate after fears that erosion would cause the emergency spillway to fail, which would lead to “catastrophic flooding“ from a 30-foot wall of water. Despite more than a decade of warnings about Oroville, there is no publ ...

A California state assembly committee has a key vote on the future of Senate Bill 128, which would allow doctors to help terminally ill patients take their own lives. If approved, California could soon join a handful of states that would allow physician assisted suicide. ...

A new bill introduced in California’s state senate requires nursing homes and similar long-term care facilities to implement transgender bathroom policies. The bill makes it unlawful to require transgender residents to use the biologically correct bathroom, and prohibits nursing home employees from calling residents anything other than their chosen name and pronoun. Additionally, nursing homes that assign rooms based on gender will be prohibited from assigning rooms based on biological ...

Imam Ammar Shahin is taking heat for a sermon at the Islamic Center of Davis (ICD) last Friday in which he called on Allah to annihilate Jews and “let us play a part in this,” and liberate the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Israel from “the filth of the Jews.” The Al-Aqsa Mosque is in East Jerusalem, on a holy site for both Jews and Muslims, and has been riddled with conflict and bloodshed as the war rages on between the two sides. Jewish groups are up in arms and calling on Homeland Security. ...
