Unfortunately, there simply isn’t enough power to go around—and when the energy companies suggest that residents not cool it during those hours, people ignore the pleas. But recently Les Bowles, a retired American Airlines pilot living in a suburb not far from the Dallas-Fort Worth airport, became part of a possible solution. He is a beta tester for a program called Rush Hour Rewards, wherein a lusciously designed thermostat with artificial intelligence and an Internet connection eases his domicile into a zone of thrift and earth-friendliness. True, temperatures can inch into the mid-to-high seventies—but the thermostat orchestrates the AC so the increase sneaks up on him. If he does get uncomfortable he can always override the procedure and lower the temp, but he hasn’t done it yet; he says he’s learned to trust the wisdom of the thermostat in such matters. Overall, he’s come to love his thermostat. “I’m kind of overwhelmed and amazed,” he gushes. And his power bill, he reports, hasn’t been as low for decades, when he was a much younger man living in a basement apartment.</BLOCKQUOTE> The Nest <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Nest-T100577-Learning-Thermostat/dp/B006ML9J4O/?_encoding=UTF8&pf_rd_t=101&tag=wwwviolentkicom&linkCode=ur2&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_p=1371734202&pf_rd_s=right-3&camp=1789&pf_rd_r=0Z9P0G6F3VEVPNNRWPKG&creative=9325&pf_rd_i=507846">isn’t very expensive,</a> considering.

The ringleader, a self-identified Muslim teen, threatened to kill the man and added, “They should have killed all of you.” When police confronted the belligerent 17-year-old at a stop in Brooklyn, a mob formed. As the crowd filmed the scene and yelled at the policemen, one young woman began beating a cop before being arrested. It’s unclear from the Daily News report whether the mob knew exactly who or what they were defending. It’s conceivable they thought they were protesting the needless arrest of a black teenager, not endorsing the anti-Semitic conduct that led to the young man’s arrest. There’s also no evidence from this report that the 17-year-old insulted and threatened the Jewish passenger out of any religious motivation. We wouldn’t be surprised if he is simply a jerk. Whatever the motives for the attack and for the mob’s reaction, one can’t help but be appalled. Since its founding, America has been one of the safest and most welcoming countries for Jews, judged against any time period, and New York has played a particularly important role in this regard.</blockquote> It is, indeed appalling. <img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/pjmedia/instapundit/~4/b9FxJcQtJjY" height="1" width="1"/>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://pjmedia.com/instapundit/167596/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> <feedburner:origLink>http://pjmedia.com/instapundit/167596/</feedburner:origLink></item> <item> <title>PUNCHING BACK TWICE AS HARD: West Virginia teen returns to school with NRA shirt, classmates’ sup…</title> <link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/pjmedia/instapundit/~3/qNROpVdxf4I/</link> <comments>http://pjmedia.com/instapundit/167639/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Tue, 23 Apr 2013 14:28:25 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Glenn Reynolds</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://pjmedia.com/instapundit/?p=167639</guid> <description><![CDATA[PUNCHING BACK TWICE AS HARD: West Virginia teen returns to school with NRA shirt, classmates’ support.

That degree could have gone to a woman who does want to spend her entire life using it to advance the cause of women – or others in need of advancement – not simply advancing the lives of her own family at home.” UPDATE: It’s worth pointing out that this is precisely the argument that used to be employed for excluding women entirely from jobs and educational opportunities — she’ll just go have kids, whereas a man with that credential would be using it to support a family.

I searched my heart and realized that in the heat of the moment of an attack, I wasn’t sure what I would do with a gun in my hand. I knew that could be more dangerous than being unarmed; it wasn’t worth the risk. But all that changed early Friday morning. Along with 80,000 others around the world, I found myself glued to the live-action police drama being played out online. I first noticed the tweets with the hashtag #BostonPoliceScanner late Thursday evening and was soon engrossed in the manhunt, listening to the officers on the ground in Watertown and Cambridge and simultaneously following the tweets from the worldwide audience. Throughout the night, a community of sorts formed as I began to recognize Twitter handles and together we “watched” law enforcement officers create a perimeter and lay down a grid so they could search the neighborhoods of Watertown. We listened as they responded to calls from residents who “heard something” in their sheds or thought they saw a “guy with a backpack” walking down the street. This was repeated dozens of times throughout the night. When police broadcast their location, many listeners typed the address into Google Street View and so could see the streets and even houses they were responding to. It was both surreal and very real at the same time. It was a strange combination of social media and reality show with the knowledge that life and death were on the line. . . . I realized at that moment that the police cannot protect me from the Dzhokhar Tsarnaevs of the world. The best they can do is tell me to lock myself in my home while they search for the bad guy. Though the residents of Watertown (and the surrounding greater-Boston area) were held in a state of near-martial law, the best most of them could do was huddle in their homes, hoping the police would take their 3 a.m. call and come running to rescue them before the terrorist killed them. . . . I realized right then that if I were holed up in my house while a cold-blooded terrorist roamed my neighborhood, I wouldn’t want to be a sitting duck with only a deadbolt lock between me and an armed intruder.</BLOCKQUOTE> Neither would I. <img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/pjmedia/instapundit/~4/g4OmK7b3hM4" height="1" width="1"/>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://pjmedia.com/instapundit/167587/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> <feedburner:origLink>http://pjmedia.com/instapundit/167587/</feedburner:origLink></item> <item> <title>TIM BLAIR: Racing Ahead. “How confident was the Sydney Morning Herald that the Boston bombers were…</title> <link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/pjmedia/instapundit/~3/r0oHeiWon24/</link> <comments>http://pjmedia.com/instapundit/167615/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Tue, 23 Apr 2013 03:57:47 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Glenn Reynolds</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://pjmedia.com/instapundit/?p=167615</guid> <description><![CDATA[TIM BLAIR: Racing Ahead. “How confident was the Sydney Morning Herald that the Boston bombers were associated with the Tea Party?
