From: Congresswoman. Marilyn Musgrave, SBA List Sent: Friday, December 27, 2013 Subject: Take Action: Save Lives
     As we get closer to the New Year, I have been reflecting on the highlights of 2013. One such triumph was the June vote on the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act. This bill, which protects unborn babies - capable of feeling excruciating pain more than halfway through pregnancy, passed in the House of Representatives.  It was the first time that Congress voted to protect an entire class of unborn children.  The fight to protect these unborn babies continues in the Senate into 2014.
     The Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act (S.1670) was introduced by Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) in November.  It is critical that the Senate join the House in holding a vote on this historic legislation in 2014.  The Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act is the SBA List's legislative priority going into 2014.
     Even pro-abortion Senator Harry Reid - Majority Leader in the Senate - said he would be "happy to take a look" at it.  But in order to force a vote in the Senate, your Senators need to hear from you.  They must understand that protecting unborn babies from the horror of late abortion is the top priority.
     Click here to use our Action Center to quickly send a message to your Senators asking them to co-sponsor and advance the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act (S.1670). Action Center URL: http://capwiz.com/sbalist/issues/alert/?alertid=63003886
     Once you have take action, do not forget to forward this on to all of your pro-life friends and family so they, too, can tell their Senators to support this historic bill.
     Thank you,

Father Documents Premature Son's Amazing Progress on Film

Take a moment to watch this fascinating video taken by a father documenting the first year of life of his son, who was born 3.5 months premature, and his incredible progress.  Photographer Benjamin Scot Miller captured the dramatic first year of his son Ward's life on camera - including Ward's first 107 days spent in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) at Nationwide Children's Hospital in Columbus, OH.   The short film shows Ward's incredible journey from a fragile 1.5 pound "preemie" to a happy and healthy 1 year old.

CLI Paper Details Abortion Funding in Obamacare
     A new paper released today by the Charlotte Lozier Institute (CLI is the education and research arm of the Susan B. Anthony List) details the taxpayer subsidization of abortions enabled by the Multi-State Plans (MSP) created by the Affordable Care Act. (CLI URL: http://www.lozierinstitute.org)
     Chuck Donovan, president of the Lozier Institute, lays out research to prove that, through the MSPs, between 71,000 and 111,500 abortions per year will be heavily subsidized by taxpayers via federal premium tax credits and Medicaid expansion.
     "The issue of whether the Affordable Care Act creates streams of taxpayer funding for abortion has been hotly debated," said Donovan, when releasing the paper. "Research done by the Lozier Institute makes clear that, through the Multi-State Plans alone, Americans will be complicit in the deaths of thousands of unborn children each year through their tax dollars.
     "Yesterday in a piece at NRO's The Corner, Donovan also pointed out that via the "Navigator program," the Obama Administration is paying America's largest abortion provider, Planned Parenthood, to funnel consumers towards abortion-funding plans in the MSPs.
     "We have passed the law and now we are beginning to find out what is really in it," concluded Donovan.

tech stuff - Tips to Prolong Battery Life

Tips on how to prolong your smartphone/tablet's battery.
     We're a smartphone society now -- people do everything on their phones, from checking e-mail and Facebook posts to watching video and surfing the Web. All that comes at a price, though: bear attacks and woefully short battery life.
     While there's little I can do about the bears, I can offer a near-dozen practical tips for extending the battery life of your phone, which reduces the frequency of charges (and hopefully let's you make it home at the end of the day before the juice runs dry).
Adjust the screen brightness. The default setting for your screen is probably brighter than it needs to be, and the display is the single largest consumer of battery power on your phone. Turn it down to the lowest level that still comfortable to see.
Sleep sooner. Your phone lets you specify how quickly to turn off the display and put the phone to sleep. You can extend the life of your phone significantly by ensuring the phone turns itself off quickly rather than staying on for several minutes every time you check the time.
Turn off notifications. Many apps enable display notifications. Most of the time, these are pointless and a waste of battery power since they force your screen to light up briefly many times throughout the day. Disable apps' notifications to extend  battery power.
Disable any antennas not in use. Never (or only rarely) use Bluetooth. Make sure it's turned off in your settings. The same is true of Wi-Fi, though if you're like most people, you probably use that quite a bit. If your battery is near death, though, and you need to keep it alive as long as possible, you can enter Airplane Mode (which turns off all the radios, including voice).
Minimize the gadgets your phone syncs with. The new Pebble smartwatch is great, but it imposes a battery penalty on your phone to the tune of about 10 percent of battery life per day. There are also Bluetooth headsets, your car and other high-tech conveniences that consume power. If you want to maximize battery life, minimize the number of gadgets you connect to.
Say no to location requests. Many apps ask permission to detect your location so they can provide more targeted information. That might be useful, but every time an app has to ping your GPS chip, it uses power. Unless you really need that location function, just say no.
Sync less frequently. Most smartphones are designed to check for e-mail and apps data every 15 or 30 minutes. If you can live with less frequent updates, extend those minutes to a full hour. This will have a noticeable effect on battery life.
Lower the volume. Turn down your phone's overall volume, including the ringer.
Turn off vibrate. You might need this feature -- especially if you leave your phone in your pocket all the time -- but making a mechanical vibrator jiggle takes a lot of juice. Turn it off for more runtime.
Keep it cool. A hot battery drains faster than a cool one -- so if your phone is hot to the touch, it's running inefficiently. That can happen when you leave it in your car, in your pocket or on top of another hot gadget, like a laptop. Running the phone continuously can also make it heat up.

Turn it off completely. If you know you won't use your phone for a while -- like in a meeting or at the movie theater -- shut it off rather than just quieting the ringer.

o'Meanwhile, Treasury floats trillions of phony "quantitative" money into big banks and lenders in order for them to swap your tax funded notes back'n forth between themselves and in the Federal Reserve system for their profiteering and to keep the stock market artificially inflated.  The money was never intended to reach down and help ordinary folks. -- rfh

     During the 3-1/2 years of America'a involvement in World War II, that started with the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941 and ended with the Surrender of Germany on May 4, and of Japan on September 2, 1945, that the U.S. trained 16+ million soldiers & airmen, produced 22 aircraft carriers, 8 battleships, 48 cruisers, 349 destroyers, 420 destroyer escorts, 203 submarines, 34 million tons of merchant ships, 100,000 fighter aircraft, 98,000 bombers, 24,000 transport aircraft, 58,000 training aircraft, 93,000 tanks, 257,000 artillery pieces, 105,000 mortars, 3,000,000 machine guns, and 2,500,000 military trucks.
     We put 16.1 million men in uniform in the various armed services, invaded Africa, invaded Italy, won the battle for the Atlantic, planned and executed D-Day, dominated the Nazi's in Europe, island hopped & fought across the Pacific, developed the atomic bomb and ultimately conquered both Japan and Germany.  It's worth noting, that during the almost exact amount of time, the Obama administration couldn't build a functioning web site!!!!!

The 600 million dollar website that does not work was made by a company with a lousy track record and a top executive who is a pal of the First Lady.  Toni Townes-Whitley, Princeton class of 85, is senior vice president at CGI Federal, which earned the no-bid contract to build the $600 million Obama care enrollment website at Healthcare.gov.  George Schindler, the president of the Canadian-based CGI Group, CGI Federals parent company, became an Obama 2012 campaign donor after his company gained the Obama care website contract.......Three other companies submitted bids for Obama care, but CGI s bid was the only one considered.   CAN WE GET OUR MONEY BACK?
