What is "cloture"?

Do you want to impress your friends and win bets?

Use "cloture" in a sentence and be able to explain it.

As explained by our Nebraska REALTOR® Association's own Kristen Anderson, Governmental Affairs Director:

Cloture is the only procedure by which the Senate can vote to place a time limit on consideration of a bill or other matter, and thereby overcome a filibuster.

Under the cloture rule (Rule XXII), the Senate may limit consideration of a pending matter to 30 additional hours, but only by vote of three-fifths of the full Senate, normally 60 votes.

Have fun making impressions and winning those bets!

We're Stuck!

I don't know about you, but I got several emails today telling me that lawmakers may pass an extension on the $8,000 tax credit.

I suspect this will keep the buying public from doing anything before a decision is made!

Just give us a yes or give us a no!

I really don't care which one they choose!

Do you?

I mean, we don't have any control of the choice the lawmakers make at this point.

What we will do is deal with it.

And we will do an awesome job of it.

LAKE ZORINSKY IN OMAHA NEBRASKA

LAKE ZORINSKY is an extremely popular place to run, walk, skate, bike, boat, fish, picnic and play.

Located between 156th and 180th and F Street in Omaha Nebraska. There are picnic areas, soccer fields, a play place for children with slides and more.

People walk/run on both sides of 168th. One side is 4-5 mile and the west side is around 3 miles.

You can access the trails on 168th.

This pair of swans were first noticed by my friend this year.

Another lovely view of the lake.

Wildlife can often be seen in the trees.
