Nothing congress is going to pass will become law without POTUS signature. The premise of this article is>>> that OBAMA will sign {#INSERT_LAW_HERE}. So why not just sign an (new) executive order? eg. NSA's mission, as set fo

This is mis-information, imho. I'd never trust no-name batteries in the Field. Empirical testing has shown over time they do not hold up. I don't claim to know why, but I just know that cheaper batteries create more landfill waste
