WASHINGTON (AP) - Anthony Elonis claimed he was just kidding when he posted a series of graphically violent rap lyrics on Facebook about killing his estranged wife, shooting up a kindergarten class and attacking an FBI agent. But his wife didn't see it that way. Neither did a federal jury. Elonis, who's from Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, was convicted of violating a federal law that makes it a crime to threaten another person.

Lying around, pondering the problems of the world, I realized that at my age I don't really give a rat's ass anymore. If walking is good for your health, the postman would be immortal. A whale swims all day, only eats fish, and drinks water, but is still fat. A rabbit runs and hops and only lives 15 years, while a tortoise doesn't run and does mostly nothing, yet it lives for 150 years. And they tell us to exercise? I don't think so. Now that I'm older, here's what I've discovered: 1. I started out with nothing, and I...

For those who’d like to check out the Obama administration’s proposed new government red tape, released Friday, it’s called the Unified Agenda. “The administration has been really aggressive on the regulatory front,” Sam Batkins, director of regulatory policy at American Action Forum, a conservative policy institute, told The Daily Signal. “They drop [the Unified Agenda] on a Friday right before a holiday, and no one critical of their regulatory policies...

ARLINGTON, Texas — The Eagles didn't win anything during their Thanksgiving showdown with the divisional rival Dallas Cowboys aside from just one football game, but it certainly felt like a lot more. From start to finish, the Eagles dominated the Cowboys and took control of first place in the NFC East with a 33-10 win. IIf there were doubts about the team's ability to go on the road and beat a good opponent — doubts that were inflamed two weeks ago in Green Bay — those were calmed a bit by the casual way Dallas was dispatched.

How was the first year of New Jersey's new teacher evaluation system? Depends on whom you ask There's hardly consensus as to how well New Jersey's teacher evaluation system worked in its first year -- and no more agreement about how the second year will stack up. The state Department of Education last week released a mostly positive report on the initial year of the system as dictated under the TEACHNJ tenure reform law, citing some challenges but praising the progress in meeting requirements for additional observations and goal setting for teachers. But the state's leading education groups have since...

Volume XIX No.48: November 26, 2014 As taxpayers busily prepare for their Thanksgiving festivities, we thought it might be a good time to see how Washington’s agriculture policy impacts your plate.

The centerpiece of the nearly trillion dollar farm bill is federally subsidized crop insurance. And this $8 billion dollara year program is actually set to grow in size in...

ARLINGTON, Texas \'97 The gulf between the Eagles and the rest of the NFC East widened on Thursday in a 33-10 victory over the Dallas Cowboys that sent a statement throughout the NFL and could resonate when the playoff bracket is determined next month.
