A Rhode Island lawmaker is acknowledging he mistakenly gave his colleagues a handout that showed open web browser tabs referencing pornographic content.
State Rep. Ramon Perez brought printouts of a Wikipedia article to give to House Finance Committee members as part of his testimony in favor of a bill.
The screenshot reportedly showed multiple open browser tabs with titles referencing pornographic material. No images could be seen.
A House spokesman confirmed Perez gave the document to the clerk, who made copies and distributed them. The clerk collected the handouts from members when the tabs were discovered. Perez submitted a new handout the next day.
Your politicians are working hard for your healthcare bill. Just a thought.

Colorado approved Marijuana for use by the public. Other States approved Marijuana for medical use. The patient has to pay a doctor, and a healthcare Insurance, a dispensary, and a copay which is a large sums of money.......... repeatedly.
Millions needed the item for treatment of Cancer, Glaucoma, and other issues, but were denied due to our moral code.
Marijuana's side effect is minimum if compared to side effects of the Chemotherapy medications. A cost of $100K chemo-therapy treatment annually for a patient with no income. That is ok with our Moral Code.
As a result of this law, many will be released of prison, less criminal activities, less family lives dysfunction and destruction.
Patients can obtain it at a reasonable price, better regulation, less cases to the Court, and a DEA are focused on bigger fish. Prices will fall, and pharmaceutical companies will make big profit, less cost to the tax payer, and more revenue to the State.
It's about time to think outside the Box. Sickness impacts the patient, the mother, the doctor and the society. Just a thought.

Open borders with Canada will reduce Medicine cost in USA by 60% |
In the last six months, Mylan raised prices more than 20% on 24 of its products, and more than 100% on seven products, according to Wells Fargo analyst David Maris.
This year, Mylan made "a 542 % increase for ursodiol, a generic medication used to treat gallstones, a 444 percent increase in metoclopramide, used to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and gastroparesis, and a 400% increase in dicyclomine, [treat irritable bowel syndrome]. Mylan also raised the price of tolterodine by 56 percent in 2016," Maris said.
The company increased the price of Epi-Pen, its largest product, by 15 percent. The analyst noted the price increases could come at a cost to patients and impact their reputation to shareholders.
In the past year, Valeant, Turing and other pharmaceutical companies have faced scrutiny over their pricing methodology. But what did the Senate do about it?
If you need a medication, someone will quickly increase the prices by 5000%. Just a thought.

Gulf Arab states and Egypt have long resented Qatar's support for Islamists, especially the Egyptian-based groups, which is banned in Egypt.
"(Qatar) embraces multiple terrorist and sectarian groups aimed at disturbing stability in the region, including the Muslim Brotherhood, ISIS and al-Qaeda, and promotes the message and schemes of these groups through their media constantly," Saudi state news agency SPA said.
On the other hand, the largest US base in the Middle East accommodating approx. 10 000 troops is located at the “Al Udeid” Air Base in Qatar, close to the capital Doha. The U.S.-Qatar military relationship is extremely important and surprisingly “free-of-charge”.
President of Egypt asked Pres.Trump for help when multiple church bombing occurred and here is the connection. Interests and conflicts of the region.

Maryland is one of several states with ambiguous topless laws. Some cities like Austin, Texas; Boulder, Colorado; and Madison, Wisconsin, have what's known as "topfreedom."
Some fear the family-friendly feel of Ocean City could be in jeopardy if toplessness becomes the norm.
The beach patrol for a Maryland resort town has been told not to bother women who go topless. Raising an argument that because men are allowed to go bare-chested so women should be allowed to go bare-chested. What's fair is fare.

Comey testified that he handed over his memos on the interactions he had with Trump to a "close friend" with the intention that they be shared widely.
"My judgment was I need to get [the memos] out into the public square," Comey said. "So I asked a friend of mine to share the content of the memos with a reporter. I didn't do it myself for a variety of reasons, but I asked him to because I thought that might prompt the appointment of a special counsel."
Comey did not appear to commit a crime by leaking his memos about his conversations with Trump, according to some legal experts. It would only be a crime if the information was classified, the experts told ABC News but, that said, his actions were improper and violated well-established norms.
Kasowitz [Trump personal lawyer] said, "Although Mr. Comey testified he only leaked the memos in response to a tweet, the public record reveals that the New York Times was quoting from these memos the day before the referenced tweet, which belies Mr. Comey’s excuse for this unauthorized disclosure of privileged information and appears to entirely retaliatory.”
