Vorhang auf für den 114. US-Kongress
Heute tritt in Washington der Anfang November 2014 neu gewählte 114. Kongress erstmals zusammen. Seit 2006 dominieren die Republikaner erstmals wieder beide Kongresskammern.
Die Zeitschrift The Hill porträtiert den neuen Kongress. Seit geraumer Zeit wird in der Politikwissenschaft (und auch in einigen unserer Seminare) diskutiert, ob aufgrund von Polarisierung und parteipolitischen Extremisierung der Kongress eine "broken branch" ist, also überhaupt noch funktionsfähig ist. Mike Rogers, der mit dem heutigen Tag aus dem Repräsentantenhaus ausscheidet, hat seinen persönlichen Rückblick hier aufgeschrieben. Ähnliche Einschätzungen hat die New York Times eingefangen. Der erste Abgeordnete ist im Übrigen schon wieder von seinem Mandat zurückgetreten, und zwar aufgrund einer Steuergeschichte. Aber auch nach seiner Zeit als Kongressmitglied muss man auf bestimmte perks nicht verzichten, wie die Washington Post schreibt.

But, what about this?consider this, what if you were to write a killer headlinetitle?content?wrote a catchier title? I ain’t saying your content isn’t good.ain’t saying your content isn’t gooddon’t want to tell you how to run your blog, but what if you added a titlesomethingheadlinetitle that grabbed a person’s attention?maybe get people’s attention?want more? I mean %BLOG_TITLE% is a little vanilla. You might peek at Yahoo’s home page and see how they createwrite post headlines to get viewers interested. You might add a video or a related picture or two to get readers interested about what you’ve written. Just my opinion, it might bring your postsblog a little livelier.

Wow, this piece of writing is pleasant, my sister is analyzing these things, thus I am going to tell her.
Today, I went to the beachfront with my kids. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said „You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.“ She put the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is entirely off topic but I had to tell someone!
