Congress' top Republicans praise Obama on Syria

Image
WASHINGTON (AP)  Leading congressional Republicans praised President Barack Obama's decision to seek lawmakers' approval before punishing Syria for a chemical attack. But it was far from clear whether they would support such a strike in a region rife with warfare and the specter of retaliation. "I do believe (Syria) should not have impunity," for the Aug. 21 attack near Damascus, Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, said by telephone. "But we need to understand what the whole scope of consequences is. What the president may perceive as limited...won't stop there." The White House was expected to brief members of Congress throughout the weekend, part of what's certain to be a full-court press to persuade lawmakers to sign off on what Obama described as a narrowly-focused operation that could be carried out anytime over the next few weeks. Obama's decision to consult Congress came after lawmakers widely demanded he seek authorization under the War Powers Ac

Restaurant Ratings: McDonald’s, Starbucks Rank High With Execs

Image
Among American restaurant chains, two markedly different names rank the highest in a survey of business executives: McDonald's (MCD) and Starbucks (SBUX).Using data carved from a larger survey regarding the business community's mindset on well-known corporations, research firm CoreBrand said the best-perceived restaurant brands in combined favorability and familiarity scores are the Quarter Pounder seller and the coffee shop operator. Recently released findings from CoreBrand ranked PepsiCo (PEP) and Coca-Cola (KO) as the most-respected brands in the opinion of survey respondents, who are director-level and above executives. When focusing only on the restaurant industry, McDonald's had the highest familiarity among the survey set, rating a 96 out of 100, followed by Starbucks, with a 94. They tied on the favorable side, with each earning a 74. Though Yum! Brands (YUM), known for its divisions KFC, Taco Bell and Pizza Hut, also got a 74 on favorability, it rated well below t

Obama: King's dream partly met, still unfulfilled

Image
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama is claiming his place in Martin Luther King's 50-year-old dream holding himself up as a symbol of the change King envisioned. But he also pointed to the nation's lingering economic disparities as evidence that King's hopes remain unfulfilled. Obama spoke at Lincoln Memorial Wednesday on the 50th anniversary of the 1963 March on Washington. With Biblical references and the cadences of a preacher Obama used the refrain quote because they marched as he recited the achievements of the civil rights movement. Laws changed legislatures changed and even the White House changed Obama said. But he says income inequality troubled inner cities and stagnant wages amid growing corporate profits show that challenges remain.

Kids Dresses of girls

We have all seen these scene kids before- the boys and girls at shows with the tight jeans, big hair, and big sunglasses. In just a few short years, the scene culture's popularity has skyrocketed. Scene kids are often stereotyped as "emo kids;" this is a common misconception. Scene kids may look a bit "emo," but scene kids have good self confidence, unlike most people who claim to be "emo kids." A scene kid is closer to a raver than a emo kid.

Rex Ryan says he put Mark Sanchez in because Jets were ‘trying to win the game’

Image
The decision to put Mark Sanchez in a meaningless preseason game, after Geno Smith played poorly and it was clear that Sanchez was the Jets' best option to begin the regular season at quarterback, was a little strange.Rex Ryan's explanation was much, much strangr.Play Y! Sports Fantasy Football: Create or join a league today!]Sanchez was inserted in the game in the third quarter, and was under constant pressure with the backup offensive line protecting him. He got crushed by Giants defensive lineman Marvin Austin and hurt his shoulder. That was his last play. Ryan said he didn't know the extent of the damage to Sanchez's shoulder.So why was a cold Sanchez in this preseason game with the backup line, which was a recipe for disaster? Take it away, Rex ...

A Different Kind of Beauty Queen

I have been smitten with the simplicity and beauty of these words this week, taken from Esther 2:15 (MSG). Esther, JUST AS SHE WAS, won the admiration of everyone who saw her. There is no message of striving here. And trust me, Esther was in the beauty contest of the ages in this scripture. See, the king of her day was looking for a new wife, and he had all of the most beautiful virgins brought to him so he could choose the lucky gal. And we thought the Housewives of Beverly Hills were dramatic and competitive! Can you imagine vying for the position of Queen?Be your best, look your best, act your best, look out for number one, make away for yourself – the pressure was on! And in the middle of it all there is Esther, just as she was, winning the admiration of everyone who saw her. Some of the most beautiful people I have ever met wouldn’t qualify to be on the cover of Vogue by the world’s standards, but I have found their God-confidence and purity of heart to be undeniably becoming.

The Forbes power list of top models no longer features an all white lineup of women – which hopefully points to a long overdue change in the industry.

Chinese model Liu Wen comes in at fifth place with £2.75m worth of annual earnings while Puerto Rican Joan Smalls was eighth, pulling in £2.2m.
