Nearly 50 Republican US Senators have signed a letter addressed to Iran on U.S. Senate letterhead.

Their letter said Iran’s ongoing negotiations on its nuclear program with President Obama is a waste of time, but it doesn’t address anything specific regarding Iran’s nuclear program.

There are no suggestions, no alternative proposals, no conditions under which the GOP would approve a deal of any kind, it offers no hope of resolving one of the biggest U.S. foreign policy challenges of the last 35 years. So why was the letter written?

We have good news and bad news. First, the good news. TODAY is National Napping Day. The opportunity provides time to adjust after changes to daylight savings when losing an hour of sleep due to ‘springing forward’.

Birds do it, bees do it and even Supreme court Justices do it. So, if you're driving somewhere, pull over at a rest area and take a well deserved nap.

Mid-afternoon naps are an integral part of most cultures, and scientifically proven to be good for you. Here’s to justifying a few hours of well deserved nap.

EMPOWERING "WE"

Submitted by Admin on

We often hear, or listen to the phrases "We The People" "How Are We Doing?" "We Are The World"

The power of we signifies collective wisdom. No one person ever has all of the answers, and regardless of your amount of Google searches , consulting with others will give us better information.

Pushing our limits may be difficult when working alone, because it’s easy to give up. By surrounding ourselves with others working toward an objective, we’ll get motivation, support, and friendly competition to push ourselves just a bit further than we would have done on our own.

BRUTAL WINTER FOR WILDLIFE

Two months of heavy winter snow covering the area and those brutal bouts of arctic air are now endangering the local wildlife.

These animals are under serious stress. Many are in danger of starving because their food sources are covered with snow, or ice and their sources for the water they need to survive are frozen.

GETTING OLD

If you are one of millions worldwide, who feel that time is catching up with you, then move faster. But is this is futile and age has overtaken you, left you in the dust and your years seem to be going too fast for comfort? Just sit back and enjoy the fact that you're not ancients, but just set in your old ways.

According to US government officials, for the last 60 months, we’ve seen consecutive private sector job growth, with a positive sign that our economy is making progress.

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Dawn probe is going into orbit around Ceres, which is the largest object in the Solar System between Mars and Jupiter.

It has taken the satellite over 7 years to reach this destination, and it will spend the next 14 months mapping it. Ceres is the first of the dwarf planets to be visited by a spacecraft.
