Tenn.Days earlier, Obama accused the House
GOP of risking another financial crisis by issuing ultimatums over the debt
ceiling and government funding."We've seen a group of Republicans in the
House, in particular, who suggest they wouldn't vote to pay the very
bills that Congress has already racked up," Obama said. "That's not an
economic plan. That's just being a deadbeat."Obama has reason to be cautiously
optimistic about the Senate, which passed a far-reaching immigration overhaul
Obama sorely sought with bipartisan support and struck a deal over Obama's
nominees that has led to a flurry of confirmations after months of
logjam. A number of prominent GOP senators have also criticized a Republican
plan to threaten a government shutdown unless funding is cut off for
Obama's health care law.But even in the Senate, there's skepticism about
Obama's intentions. Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., said Obama's contrasting
tone about the House and Senate amounts to a divide-and-conquer strategy
that calls into question the White House's outreach."These discussions have
been going on for five years and no agreements have been reached
yet," Sessions said. "It could be the president is playing the Senate
like a fiddle."On most issues -- including pressing tax and spending matters
-- Senate and House Republicans are unified in their opposition. There was
no telling Republicans apart Tuesday, for instance, as they panned a corporate
tax cut and jobs spend
One of the biggest impediments to establishing a market for electric cars
is the lack of charging stations, like this one in Montpelier, Vt.
(AP Photo/Toby Talbot)A California company was given more than $100 million
in taxpayer funds by the federal government with few strings attached
to establish a network of electric car charging stations that is
fraught with problems, according to a government audit.All this, despite
weak demand by the American public for electric cars.While President Obama
has pledged to get 1 million electric cars on U.S. roads by
2015, a new report by the Department of Energys inspector general found
that Americans aversion to electric vehicles and loose department supervision
led to stalling the charging network which cost taxpayers more than
$135 million.The report noted the project was filled with problems from
the beginning, and said taxpayer-funded grants to San Francisco-based ECOtality
for it were very generous and involved little risk by the company.-
Inspector General's reportECOtality, which recently named Brandon Hurlbut,
former chief of staff for ex-Energy Secretary Steven Chu, to its board,
won a $99.8 million award in 2009 to install nearly 15,000 electric
vehicle chargers throughout the country.The company and its subsidiaries
also received about $35 million from the departments Vehicle Technologies
Program from 2005 to 2011, for two multiyear projects to evaluate and
test specific vehicles.Acco

<p style="font-size:xx-small;"> to Bradford (his colleague) was just a jerk, he wrote. Said he
was too comfortable to move.Reaction to the startup millionaires rant in
the blogosphere was swift and harsh. Why should anyone move from their
seat at any cost? Perhaps the person didn't think it was worth
a lousy 100 bucks to give up their seat and were comfortable,
posted one Facebook user on Goldbergs timeline. Others called the CEO, entitled,
and the move revolting.Golberg is hardly the first to offer incentives like
this to fellow passengers. Last year, a couple flying with twin infants
made headlines for trying a more charming approach. Soon after boarding,
they preemptively handed out goodie bags of candy to neighbors for the
inconvenience of being seated next to two 14-month olds.So what do airlines
do when passengers offer each other cash or other inducements to swap
seats or to get more comfortable on a flight?We contacted United, American,
Southwest and Delta and none of these airlines have a clear policy
regarding passengers selling seats to each other. United said that passengers
who wish to change their seating assignment should speak to a gate
agent, American said they were unaware of the issue, and Southwest claimed
it wasnt a problem for their passengers because they have an open
seating policy.Dr. Joyce Hunter, an associate professor at Saint Xavier
University and the author of a book about air rage, said that
the airlines ignore this issue at their own pe
Florida Gov. Rick Scott is asking civil rights leader Jesse Jackson to
apologize for reckless and divisive comments following the jury verdict
in the George Zimmerman murder trial.Jackson on Tuesday called Florida the
Selma of our time. The remark follows Jackson saying Florida was an
Apartheid State, after a jury earlier this month found Zimmerman not guilty
on all charges in the shooting death of black teenager Trayvon Martin.Jesse
Jackson owes every Floridian an apology for his reckless and divisive comments,
the Republican governor said in a statement. It is unfortunate that he
would come to Florida to insult Floridians and divide our state at
a time when we are striving for unity and healing.The Selma remark
refers to 1965 marches in Selma, Ala., over black voting rights and
other civil rights issues in which marchers were injured by police. The
term Apartheid State refers to the racial segregation in South Africa and
elsewhere that the United Nations in the 1970s declared a crime against
humanity.Zimmerman, a Hispanic, fatally shot Martin, who was unarmed, when
they became involved in a physical altercation while Zimmerman was on volunteer
neighborhood watch duty in Sanford, Fla., in the early evening hours of
Feb. 26, 2012.Jackson, who is black and was a 1984 Democratic presidential
candidate, made the comments while at the state capitol in Tallahassee.He
was visiting a group known as the Dream Defenders, protesting to get
