MMM-The prefix "ob-" in English has a fascinating range of meanings and uses. Here's a breakdown of its main functions and some examples: 1. "Against" or "In the way" obstacle: Something that stands in your way. object: To express disapproval or disagreement. obstruct: To block or hinder progress. obvious: Easily seen or understood, as if it's "in the way" of being missed. 2. "Toward" obligation: A duty or commitment that you're bound "toward." observe: To watch carefully, directing your attention "toward" something. 3. "Thoroughly" or "Completely" In some cases, "ob-" intensifies the meaning of the root word. obtain: To fully grasp or hold something. obfuscate: To make something completely unclear or confusing. obdurate: Stubborn and unyielding, "thoroughly" hardened in one's stance. Variations: The prefix "ob-" can sometimes appear as "oc-", "op-", or "of-" before certain consonants (e.g., occur, oppose, offer). Etymology: "Ob-" comes from Latin, where it had similar meanings. Nuances: The exact meaning of an "ob-" word can depend on the specific context and the root word it's attached to. Expanding Your Vocabulary Root Exploration: Look up the root words that are combined with "ob-" (e.g., "tain" in obtain, "fuscate" in obfuscate). Understanding the root will illuminate the full meaning of the word. Contextual Clues: Pay attention to how "ob-" words are used in sentences and texts. This will help you grasp their specific connotations. Word Lists: Use online resources or dictionaries to find lists of words containing "ob-". This can be a fun way to expand your vocabulary. Memory Palace Location: Imagine a bustling city street. "Obstruct" (Against/In the way):: A giant, overflowing garbage dumpster has been placed smack-dab in the middle of the street. It's completely obstructing traffic. Cars are honking, people are detouring, and a cyclist is trying to squeeze past but is struggling. The dumpster is bright orange, making it obvious (another "ob-" word!) that it's causing a problem. A sleek, futuristic drone suddenly descends and, with a precise laser beam, vaporizes the overflowing garbage from the dumpster. The street is instantly clear. The drone has obviated the need for anyone to move the dumpster manually. Traffic flows smoothly again. Here, "ob-" suggests "against" in the sense of "removing" or "counteracting" a problem. The drone's action has obviated (made unnecessary) the previous need to deal with the obstruction. Visualize the clean, efficient removal to remember this meaning. A group of protesters has arrived at the street, holding signs and chanting. They are opposing the city's plan to build a new highway through the neighborhood. They stand opposed to the construction workers who are trying to clear the area (another "ob-" related concept: "obstruct," remembering the earlier example). The protesters are very vocal and determined. "Oppose" clearly demonstrates the "against" meaning of "ob-". The protesters are actively standing against the proposed highway. Visualize their passionate demonstration to solidify the meaning. Narrative: The overflowing dumpster obstructed the street. The drone obviated the need to move it. Now, the protesters oppose the new highway, adding another layer of conflict to the scene. The street is becoming a stage for various "ob-" related actions and concepts. #MemoryPalace, #VocabularyBuilding,#MnemonicDevice, #EnglishLanguage, #WordNerd, #ObPrefix, #Oppose, #Obstruct ,#Obviate, #LanguageLearning, #VisualLearning ,#StudyTips, #MemoryTechniques, #Education ,#Etymology, #WordOfTheDay, #Vocabulary, #LearningHacks, #BrainTraining,
This Day in Legal History: George Washington Unanimously ElectedOn February 4, 1789, George Washington was unanimously elected as the first President of the United States by the Electoral College, setting a precedent for democratic governance under the newly ratified Constitution. His election marked the formal beginning of the executive branch, shaping the legal and political framework of the young nation. On the same date in 1801, John Marshall was sworn in as Chief Justice of the United States. Marshall's tenure, spanning 34 years, would profoundly influence American law, particularly through landmark decisions like Marbury v. Madison, which established judicial review. His leadership solidified the Supreme Court as a coequal branch of government. Decades later, on February 4, 1945, the Yalta Conference began, with President Franklin D. Roosevelt, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, and Soviet leader Joseph Stalin meeting to discuss Europe's post-World War II reorganization. The conference had lasting legal implications, shaping international law, the formation of the United Nations, and the division of Germany. More recently, on this day in 1997, a civil jury found O.J. Simpson liable for the wrongful deaths of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman, a stark contrast to his earlier criminal trial acquittal. This verdict highlighted the differing burdens of proof in civil versus criminal law. Each of these events reflects the evolving nature of law and governance, from the founding of the presidency to the expansion of judicial power and international legal agreements.President Donald Trump has announced plans to invoke the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 as part of his strategy to deport millions of undocumented immigrants. The law, originally passed during rising tensions with France, gives the president broad authority to detain, deport, or impose restrictions on foreign nationals deemed a threat during wartime. It can be activated when the U.S. is at war or facing an “invasion or predatory incursion” by a foreign government. Trump has directed his administration to assess whether drug cartels operating in the U.S. qualify as an invasion, which could serve as the legal basis for invoking the act.Historically, the Alien Enemies Act has been used in wartime, including during the War of 1812 and both World Wars. President Woodrow Wilson imposed restrictions on foreign nationals, and President Franklin Roosevelt used the law to justify the internment of Japanese, German, and Italian Americans during World War II. The Supreme Court has upheld the law's constitutionality, even allowing deportations after wartime, as seen in the 1948 case of a former Nazi, Kurt Ludecke. However, courts have been reluctant to define “invasion” broadly, previously ruling that large numbers of migrants crossing the border do not meet the founders' definition of an armed threat.Democratic lawmakers have recently pushed to repeal the act, citing its historical use in violating civil rights. If Trump proceeds with his plan, legal challenges will likely arise over whether cartel activity constitutes an invasion and whether the law can be used outside of traditional wartime contexts.What is the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 that Trump wants to use in deportations? | ReutersA Trump-appointed federal prosecutor, Edward Martin, has warned that anyone obstructing Elon Musk's government efficiency initiative could face criminal charges. In a letter posted on X, Martin assured Musk that his office would take legal action against anyone threatening or hindering the work of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Musk responded with a public thank-you.The warning follows reports that career government officials tried to block DOGE employees from accessing sensitive information. At the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), two top security officials were removed after preventing DOGE representatives from entering secure areas. Similarly, a Treasury Department official reportedly resisted efforts by DOGE to access financial systems.Martin revealed that his office had been working with DOGE but did not provide specifics. He also encouraged Musk to report any “questionable conduct” for potential legal action. The Trump administration has been expanding its control over the Justice Department, recently launching an investigation into a sheriff's office for releasing an undocumented immigrant in defiance of federal orders. Martin, who previously dropped all Jan. 6-related cases, has been outspoken in support of Trump, a departure from the typical neutrality of U.S. attorneys.US prosecutor warns of legal risk for anyone hindering Musk's efficiency effort | ReutersLawyers representing plaintiffs in a $2.8 billion antitrust settlement with Blue Cross Blue Shield have asked a federal judge in Alabama to approve over $754 million in legal fees and expenses. The legal team, led by Joe Whatley and Edith Kallas, is requesting $657.1 million in fees—equal to 23.47% of the settlement fund—along with at least $97 million in expenses. They argue this percentage is consistent with a similar $2.7 billion Blue Cross settlement in 2020, which awarded lawyers a comparable fee.The case, which has been in litigation for over a decade, accuses Blue Cross of dividing the country into exclusive territories to avoid competition, which allegedly drove up insurance costs and lowered reimbursements. Blue Cross has denied any wrongdoing. The lawyers claim they have worked 373,000 hours and spent $100 million on expert witnesses and other expenses.A previous $2.7 billion settlement involving Blue Cross, which addressed overcharging claims, was upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court last year and resulted in $667 million in legal fees. The current settlement agreement permits lawyers to request up to 25% of the total fund for legal fees, leaving the judge to decide whether the request is reasonable.Lawyers seek $754 million in new Blue Cross antitrust settlement | ReutersA U.S. judge has extended a pause on the Trump administration's plan to freeze federal loans, grants, and financial aid after advocacy groups challenged the policy in court. Judge Loren AliKhan warned that cutting off funding would be "catastrophic" for organizations serving the public interest. The extension follows an earlier short-term pause, which was set to expire Monday.The funding freeze originated from a White House budget office memo directing agencies to halt funding in line with Trump's executive orders on immigration, climate change, and diversity. The memo was later withdrawn, but some grant recipients reported ongoing difficulties accessing funds.A Rhode Island judge issued a separate restraining order last week in response to a lawsuit from 22 Democratic attorneys general and Washington, D.C. Despite these rulings, a Trump administration lawyer argued that the president has the right to direct agencies under his executive authority. The legal battle over whether the funding freeze can move forward remains unresolved.US judge extends pause on Trump's plan to freeze federal grants, loans | Reuters This is a public episode.

Our ego can be our biggest ally or our greatest enemy. Keeping in check gives us the confidence to pursue our dreams and overcome challenges. But when it spirals into arrogance, it closes our eyes to our mistakes, holds us back from growth, and ultimately limits our success. By cultivating humility, empathy, and accountability, we can overcome the blindfold of ego and build a life of true fulfillment and achievement. Ultimately, success is not about being perfect but honest, open, and striving to improve. Let's leave arrogance behind and embrace the growth journey, knowing that the path to success is paved with humility and self-awareness.Check us out - Instagram and Twitter: JeroldJax Facebook: Jerold Action Jackson and Zone Of Action JeroldJackson.com Happiness starts with you.

HomeRise, a nonprofit housing developer that has received more than $200 million in grants and loans from the city of San Francisco, declares on its website that its mission is “to help people experiencing homelessness secure housing and become self-sufficient.” However, in April, an independent audit revealed questionable spending of the organization's funds. While the scope of inappropriate spending was not clear due to incomplete record-keeping, the audit found that most of the grant money went toward staff salaries, including large bonuses that violated the city's grant agreement.

Why are protesters being allowed to block, roads, bridges and even highways causing individuals traveling from point A to Point B to be detained against their will. Remember your rights cannot be infringed upon but not can you infringe on other's rights. Local law enforcement and the jurisdictions they serve see to be a little confused about this. But the last thing we need is a Federal Law against it. Unfortunately, conservatives in every corner of America see Federal Laws as part of the solution to improve or fix America. They are dead wrong and is part of the reason we find ourselves losing ground to tyranny every year.

Dogs Are Smarter Than People: Writing Life, Marriage and Motivation
There are some things in the writing world that don't make a ton of sense in the world of regular humans. One of those things is pinch points. This podcast episode is going to be the start of a quick series of podcasts and regular posts about pinch points. The regular posts will be at our Substack LIVING HAPPY under the WRITE BETTER NOW publication. So, what are these little twerps called pinch points? They a way of thinking about novel or story structure that helps us keep the reader engaged. Pinch points are moments where the tension emerges again or is heightened. It's a place where you seductively say to the reader, “Hey, baby. Let's engage again.” Or maybe it's that they are saying, “Dear Reader, let me remind you what exactly is at stake here for our poor, dear, pathetic hero.” The pinch points are where the protagonist or hero of your story gets a little bit of pain. Ouch. So mean, us writers are so very mean. As Writing Mastery describes, “They rekindle the tension that may have waned by reminding us of the primary conflict and what it means for the characters. Without stakes, readers will quickly lose interest—therefore, pinch points are events of the plot that, strategically placed, keep the narrative from losing steam.” “In the traditional Three-Act Structure, the first act introduces the characters, setting, and conflict, while the third act culminates in the resolution. The second act, which constitutes the middle portion of the story, is often the longest and contains the rising action. Pinch points punctuate this act to create a sense of urgency and drive the story forward.” Pinch Points Are Not Plot Points So, here's the super important thing. Pinch points are not plot points. Yes, there is a lot of P-words in there, but to pinch is not to plot, though a dastardly villain might plot how to pinch. Plot points move the story forward are events connect the events of your story so it's not episodic. Pinch points Raise stakes or increase the conflict. Obstruct the hero from getting her goal, so often focus on the bad guy of the story or the antagonist and this is a big part of it, this is what makes it not a turning point Make the reader curious about what might happen, make them worried about what might happen, so keeps them reading Show us what our heroes are made of because of the extra pressure that these challenges create. As Writers Helping Writers writes, “New writers often concentrate on the Hook, Midpoint, and the big twist at the end. But without well-placed Pinch Points, the story will lose its sense of rising action, conflict, and tension. The quest cannot exist without an opponent, and the Pinch Points show the reader what that opposition is all about. “Pinch Points show how high the stakes are. They also set up the emotional change within the hero as they react to the new situation.” So, tomorrow on the blog, I'll be talking about where these babies go in your story. DOG TIP FOR LIFE Do not let the pinch points keep you from moving forward toward your goals. COOL EXERCISE Think about the bad guy in your story. Now write down: Their fetish What they'd buy at the grocery store What they'd buy at Wal-Mart What they could do to make things harder on the hero and easier on themselves PLACE TO SUBMIT River Styx The Castro Prize, named for our founding editor, Michael Castro, is a new prize awarded annually to exemplary works of poetry and fiction.

We engage in a rigorous examination of the legal landscape following Clarence Thomas's mysterious hiatus from the Supreme Court and the potential precedent a pivotal case might set for January 6 insurrectionists. The term "otherwise obstructs" is scrutinized, raising questions about the interpretation of obstruction in the context of the Capitol riot. We also shine a light on possible conflicts of interest at the highest court, questioning the implications for justice and fairness.The Trump Organization finds itself in hot water, with Don Jr.'s signatures on key documents under a legal microscope. We dissect Letitia James's actions and the implications for the financial dealings within Trump's empire. With Barbara Jones's oversight, we're left wondering what skeletons might tumble out of the organization's closet. Tune in as we also reveal the dubious honor of our 'Shithole of the Week' – a title bestowed upon those whose actions have been less than exemplary.Finally, we grapple with the weighty issues of international conflict, advocacy for jury nullification, and witness tampering. Our conversation challenges listeners to differentiate between government actions and the will of the people, drawing poignant examples from around the globe. We delve into the sincerity of protests, especially in support of the Palestinian cause, and the inconsistent international response to crises. With a look at the U.S. political landscape, we analyze recent polling trends and the significance of continued activism as the nation approaches key elections.

Darling, have you been clinging to a fragile thread for far too long? Wondering when this will finally come to an end? You see, when we find ourselves in these precarious states, desperately trying to escape discomfort, we inadvertently obstruct our own desires. The Princess, she's the one who clutches the Queen's tiara, always fighting her way out, reluctant to sit with the discomfort, avoiding responsibility for how things unfolded, and sidestepping a deeper exploration of the beliefs that set the stage. But today, my love, let's release the Princess and summon forth the Queen within. Enjoy!EPISODE RESOURCESFREE 4-day Wealth Revival SeriesGet the book here
Donald Trump took to Truth Social to make his demands for House Republicans as the shutdown deadline looms. Trump told Republicans that this is their last chance to strip the funding from special prosecutor Jack Smith because they failed to do so with the debt limit negotiations. He wants them to shut down the federal government if they don't get their way, and there are plenty of Republicans in Congress willing to do exactly that. Also, former MAGA attorney Lin Wood was among the most vocal proponents of the 2020 election conspiracies, and worked, at times, alongside many of the people who were indicted with Donald Trump in Georgia. So why wasn't he criminally charged as well? That answer may have come this week when it was revealed that Wood is actually acting as state's witness against the defendants, meaning that he has flipped on Trump and everyone else. And finally, according to a new report, Donald Trump is terrified of going to prison and has been repeatedly asking his lawyers questions about how bad jail will be for him. He's asked if he'll get to go to "Club Fed" or if he'll have to wear one of those orange jumpsuits. This is a stark contrast to his claim last week that he "doesn't worry" about going to jail. The man is clearly frightened, but he has only himself to blame for his situation.

Former President Donald Trump has made History again. For the third time, he has been CHARGED with multiple Felonies. The case is "The United States Of America v. Donald J. Trump." The third indictment of Trump accuses him of illegally conspiring to overturn the 2020 election - a web of false claims of election fraud that spawned his supporters' Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol. Trump faces four new federal criminal charges, which were unveiled Tuesday in a 45-page indictment. COUNT 1 - 18 USC §371 Conspiracy to Defraud the United States. COUNT 2 - 18 USC §1512(k) Conspiracy to Obstruct an Official Proceeding. COUNT 3 - 18 USC §§1512(c)(2),2 Obstruction of and Attempt to Obstruct an Official Proceeding. COUNT 4 - 18 USC §241 Conspiracy Against Rights. You can read the Indictment at this link. I will post additional information on my website, gloriamoraga.com.

The DOJ is now reminding Deven Archer of his upcoming prison sentence the day before he is set to stand before members of the House. Something seems fishy!
On todays episode of The Cajun Conservative Show, the DOJ asked a judge to sentence a witness that was supposed to testify in front of Congress about the Biden family scandal, is this just a coincidence? Or is the DOJ trying to hinder the Republican investigation into the Biden family business dealings? Jim Jordan releases documents that show the Biden administration was pressuring, big tech media companies to censor posts that the administration thought was misinformation Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley have made statements about pardoning Donald Trump if elected President of the United States, but Asa Hutchinson, former governor of Arkansas disagrees with discussing pardons during presidential primary Link to The Cajun Conservative page where you can leave a message, also don't forget to subscribe and share https://anchor.fm/thecajunconservative https://www.facebook.com/thecajunconservative/ https://thecajunconservativeshow.wordpress.com Merchandise store for the Cajun Conservative https://www.bjsmediastore.com/ Sponsors Cajun Carts 337-896-3411 www.cajuncarts.com Help out my wife with teaching supplies for school https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/XZ96QGW75H60?ref_=wl_share

The Department of Justice claims it has evidence that classified documents at Mar-a-Lago were likely concealed and removed from a storage room to obstruct the federal investigation into the missing records. We have the latest reporting from Washington with Eamon Javers. Plus, a police officer in Ohio is on administrative leave after shooting and killing an unarmed Black man during an attempted arrest. And we speak with the mayor of Jackson, Mississippi as the city's water crisis grows. When can residents expect to get their water back? And why has the city struggled to address staffing issues at a water plant there?
The legal fight over the FBI search of former President Trump's estate in Florida takes a new turn as the Department of Justice says classified materials were removed and concealed at Mar-a-Lago, possibly amounting to obstruction of justice.
