| Environmentalism and Human Sacrifice |

Last
week, Bjorn Lomborg, the widely published Danish professor and director
of one of the world's leading environmental think tanks, the Copenhagen
Consensus Center, published an article about the Philippines' decision,
after 12 years, to allow genetically modified (GM) rice -- "golden
rice" -- to be grown and consumed in that country. The reason for the
delay was environmentalist opposition to GM rice; and the reason for the
change in Philippine policy was that 4.4 million Filipino children
suffer from vitamin A deficiency. That deficiency, Lomborg writes,
"according to the World Health Organization, causes 250,000 to 500,000
children to go blind each year. Of these, half die within a year."

It’s
a New Year across America, but little has changed in Washington, with
President Obama and Senate leader Harry Reid (D-NV) obstinately standing
against reining in government spending, and senior citizens scheduled
to get walloped with higher taxes and the effects of Obamacare as more
facets of the healthcare law continue to be rolled out.
Obama’s January 21 inaugural address was a cattle-call to move forward
with every item on the liberal special interest wish list, but despite
his tough talk, 60 Plus and millions of our senior activists will be
standing in the way of his agenda!

| 5 Sequester Facts to Know Before Committing Suicide |
| By: Nick Gillespie & Meredith Bragg |

To
hear President Barack Obama tell it, the impending $85 billion in
spending cuts to the federal budget known as the sequester are the worst
disaster since Seth MacFarlane hosted the Academy Awards.
But before you dive deep into depression, here are five facts that
should take the sting out of the sequester.

In
the early 1970s it became apparent that if there were to be
academically solid, biblically sound science textbooks, Christian
teachers of science would have to write them. George Mulfinger and
Emmett Williams, two Christian university professors, agreed and were
commissioned to write a high school physical science textbook. At that
time the University Press—as BJU Press was called years ago—had been
publishing a few books and booklets by theologians. The machinery—human
and otherwise—producing books, booklets, and a periodical, Faith for the
Family, was called upon to help prepare the science text manuscript for
printing.

| Obama: Fear the Sequester Cuts! |
| By: Howard Kurtz |
|
Appearing
before hardhat-wearing shipyard workers in Newport News, Va., the
president tried to step up pressure on the GOP to avoid the so-called
sequester that hits Friday. Following the all-politics-is-local rule,
Obama pointed out that 90,000 Virginia defense workers will face
furloughs if the cuts are allowed to stand. In a new twist, the
president reacted to an emerging Republican plan to give the
administration more flexibility in carrying out the $85 billion in
cutbacks slated for his year. That, of course, would shift political
responsibility to the White House. And Obama wasn’t buying, saying the
time frame was too short to give him anything other than unpalatable
choices.
