Obama visits facility for underprivileged children in KL

Bernama | Published on November 21, 2015 14:41 MYT

KUALA LUMPUR: The children in a classroom at the Dignity for Children Foundation may not have realised that one of the planet's most powerful men had dropped by today.

"Hello everyone. How are you doing today?" United States President Barack Obama greeted the children aged between seven and nine as he entered the room at 11.10 am.

Ditching protocol, the father of two stooped to talk to the children at the facility, a charity-based educational institution for refugee and urban poor children in Sentul here.

He interacted with the children, some of them from Myanmar, who were busy working on their art and science projects, asking them about their favourite subjects and ambitions as he offered words of encouragement.

Obama flew into Malaysia yesterday to attend the 3rd ASEAN-US Summit as well as the 10th East Asia Summit in conjunction with the 27th ASEAN Summit which was opened today by Malaysian Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak.

Gas prices to fall below $2 for Thanksgiving

Nathan Bomey, USA TODAY 11:43 a.m. EST November 23, 2015

Thanksgiving travelers will pay less for gasoline than they have in more than a decade.

The average price of unleaded gasoline is expected to hit $1.99 on Thanksgiving, GasBuddy.com analysts reported.

That's the lowest it's been for Turkey Day since 2004, said Tom Kloza, global head of energy analysis for Oil Price Information Service.

Right now the average is $2.072, Kloza said, but it's fall. At that level, nearly 60% of U.S. gas stations are already selling gas for less than $2.

“We had lower prices in 2008 and 2009 but not for Thanksgiving,” Kloza said. “The cheapest markets are in the Great Lakes states. Ohio, Michigan, Illinois — very, very cheap gas there.”

Gas prices are down from $2.81 a year ago, according to GasBuddy.

Bad news for energy producers is good news for consumers.

The global energy industry is facing a massive surplus in oil production, which has led many oil companies to shed thousands of jobs and slash investment plans.

But U.S. producers have continued pumping oil even as the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) maintains production a high rate. That has depressed prices.

“This is a glut of crude,” Kloza said. “It’s a glut everywhere you look.”

The typical U.S. driver will save roughly $75 on the road in the 40-day peak shopping season leading up to Christmas, compared to recent averages, Kloza said.

“I don’t know what he or she is going to spend it on, but it’s a substantial amount of money,” he said.

It's especially good news for the millions of travelers who will hit the road this week. Some 67% of Thanksgiving travelers plan to drive more than 200 miles, GasBuddy reported.

For months, retail gasoline prices have remained higher than analysts would typically expect considering rock-bottom oil prices. With oil prices hovering in the $40 to $50 per barrel range for several months, gas has remained in the low $2 range for several months.

Analysts say the price of gas depends on many factors, including refinery costs, distribution and blends.

But the drop below $2 indicates that retail prices are finally catching up with crude prices.

There Is No One I Would Rather Have at the Helm Today Than President Barack Obama

By: Sarah Jones

Saturday, November 14th, 2015, 4:27 pm

The following is an editorial written by PoliticusUSA co-publisher Sarah Jones.

As we struggle with comprehending the horror of the Paris attacks, we also struggle with what peace means.

Some people confuse peace with pacifism, and even with a benign niceness. But both of these things can enable cruelty and violence by not calling them out.

Peace should be a verb, it’s a thing we actively seek and keep doing, not a thing we accomplish or take pride in. There are some on the left who do this, who take comfort in being “nice” people while Rome burns.

When a bully picks on a little kid, do we show “kindness” to the bully thinking that will fix them, and by kindness, I mean refusing to hold them accountable for their behavior, or we do step up, name it and do our best to stop it.

To get to peace — and let’s face it, we never arrive, it’s an ongoing journey — things can’t be all nice and comfortable all of the time.

President Barack Obama knows this. That is why he hunted down and killed Osama bin Laden. That’s not something any person with an ounce of humanity wants to do, no matter what- to kill another human being. But it was necessary.

To that end, today, in the wake of the terror attacks, U.S. military forces conducted “a precision airstrike in #Libya against ISIL leader and long-time AQ operative Abu Nabil,” according to Brett McKurk, who is the Special Presidential Envoy for the Global Coalition to Counter ISIL.

President Obama is going to do what he needs to do. I thank whatever God there is that I don’t have to make decisions like this, and I shiver thinking of any one of the Republican presidential candidates doing so.

It takes great temperament to take action without rushing in, to know just how far to press the gas pedal, and to keep the people as calm as you can while you do it. There will be endless criticism no matter what he does, but a good leader knows that and forges ahead.

President Obama didn’t forget us, even as he took off for Turkey and the start of the G20 Summit. He didn’t leave us hanging for days wondering what in the hell was going on. Here’s a readout of the President’s National Security Council Meeting on the Paris Attacks:

President Obama, before departing for the G20 Summit, convened his National Security Council to discuss yesterday’s horrific terrorist attacks in Paris. The President’s team briefed him on the latest intelligence surrounding the attacks, and–while noting that there was no specific or credible threat to the United States–reviewed our homeland security posture to ensure we are doing everything necessary to protect the American people. The President received a briefing on the active cooperation with our French counterparts on intelligence sharing and military action against ISIL, and reaffirmed that his team will remain in close contact with their French counterparts to be ready to provide any necessary assistance to French authorities as part of the investigation. The team reviewed the intelligence picture, noting that we had no information to contradict the initial French assessment of ISIL’s responsibility. The President was also briefed on our Embassy security posture in Paris and across Europe, and directed his team to take all appropriate measures to ensure the security of Embassy personnel. The President directed his team to keep him regularly apprised of the investigation and any relevant intelligence.
President Obama has this. He can’t fix it, no one can. But he’s in charge and he’s on it, and if there is something to be done, he is the person to do it. This is not to suggest he is perfect and no one should question him, or to suggest we should mindlessly turn over our liberties should that be suggested. But when it comes to judgment, there is no one I would rather have at the helm today than President Barack Obama.


We are lucky to have such a President, especially at times like this.

Who didn't enjoy watching Putin School that obama cuckold?

oh yeah, it was amazing. obama, just a pretty boy in a dress playing with lipstick
 
No one taxes gas like Cali....3.30-3.40 a gallon. Tax that gas company!! That will show those billionaire oil tycoon scum bags!

LMFAO....morons.
 
That's really more your punishment for living halfway to Mars. It's 2.50-2.65 all day and all night where I live.

Our tax is NOT the highest, it's the 5th highest and we're only twelve cents above the national average.

Our gas prices are not out of line with neighboring states either.

And the goal isn't to punish the gas companies anyway, it's to raise funds to build stuff. Primarily roads at least in theory.

I forgot I have to get 91....that's my fault.

Yea it's not so bad.

And the goal isn't to punish the gas companies anyway, it's to raise funds to build stuff. Primarily roads at least in theory.

If the roads about LA are anything like those of the bay area we both know that's a steaming pile of shit. It's meant to fuck poor people out of more money for the rich, real talk. Taxing gas might as well be taxing milk and bread on the "fuck poor people" scale.
 
I use the good stuff too. That's also under three bucks in my neck of the woods. But I sometimes travel for work and I'm pretty sure gas stations that know you can't make it to the next station just rape you. Cus what are you gonna do? Walk. HAAHAHAHAHAHA!

Oh it is bad but an extra twelve cents neither gets you from the 2.50 average to the 3.30 nor does it really chaffe my willy. It's annoying but that's all it is and only minorly.

As far as the roads oh it's bullshit. I said "in theory" in reality money is fungible so no matter what they claim it's for the money goes to whatever the fuck they want. And yeah it hurts the poor more than anybody else. I don't think that's the goal, hell I never think that is the goal it's just a side effect. Even as it stands lots of Republicans think the problem is that everybody needs some "skin in the game" so some of these are just keeping the peace with our red brothers until we can activate the ejector seat I'm constructing beneath Texas. You'll know it's complete when there is a Texas shaped satellite orbiting the Earth.

Oh that's not just being in the woods, that's bay area too....it's just cheaper down south.

That would be cool....except no orbit, just let it go.
 
Yeah, we aren't quite as richy rich as you are and I'm not in LA proper anyhow. I tell people from out of state that I'm from LA because really LA stretches all the way to San Diego if you don't actually live here.

Yea...if I roll east into the valley it cheapens up. But yea the bay area is fucking insane with teh money. That's why I moved 5hrs north.

I call it Los Diego for a reason. San FranJose too....we don't talk about Oakland.

Coldplay samples Obama singing 'Amazing Grace'

By ELIZA COLLINS 11/23/15 12:32 PM EST

The British rock band Coldplay is using a sample of President Barack Obama singing "Amazing Grace" for a song on its new album, The Sun reports.

“We have a tiny clip of the President singing Amazing Grace at that church. Because of the historical significance of what he did" and the song "being about, ‘I’m lost but now I’m found,’” the band's lead singer, Chris Martin, told The Sun.

Obama led a crowd singing the hymn during the funeral for Clementa C. Pinckney, one of the nine victims in the church shooting in Charleston, South Carolina, in June. The president wove in references to "Amazing Grace" throughout his eulogy, which was actually held at city's TD Arena — not the church where the shooting took place.
"If we can find that grace, anything is possible," Obama said. "If we can tap that grace, everything can change."

Martin, who performed an acoustic rendition of Coldplay's "'Til Kingdom Come" at Beau Biden's memorial service, has previously said that Obama is a Coldplay fan.

The album, "A Head Full of Dreams," comes out in December.
