Greensburg —
I'm bothered by the so-called "gun show loophole."
According to an article at about.com (http://civilliberty.about.com/od/guncontrol/a/Gun-Shows.htm): "In 33 states, private gun owners are not restricted from selling guns at gun shows. Buyers who purchase guns from individuals are not required to submit to the federal background checks in place for licensed dealers."
What this means is that if Joe or Jane-Q-Public attend a gun show with one or more guns to sell, he or she is free to sell those weapons without performing the required background checks that vendors with a Federal Firearms License are required to perform.
Gun control opponents argue that, in practice, the gun show loophole doesn't truly exist.
In claiming that the gun control loophole is a myth, Tom Knighton of unitedliberty.org writes: "What spurred the discussion of a loophole is that often times, a regular guy will take a gun to a gun show in hopes of selling or trading it for another gun. I've seen FFL holders purchase these guns, then turn around and sell them a few hours later. However, there is nothing to stop that same guy from selling that gun to me instead."
Knighton continues, "Because the seller isn't an FFL holder, he's not required to run any kind of background check on me. This is what people are referring to as the gun show loophole. So why is it not? Well, to start with, it's no different than a face to face purchase by a couple of guys. It just happens to occur at a gun show."
Knighton's argument, however, is flawed on two levels.
First, it overlooks the fact that the gun show loophole actually extends beyond gun shows.
Consider the case of Jitka Vesel, a 36-year-old Czech Republic immigrant gunned down by a former boyfriend in April 2011.
According toguardian.co.uk, Vesel's killer, Demetry Smirnov, was a Russian immigrant who purchased his gun from a "private seller" (the legal term for vendors not required to conduct background checks) on the website armslist.com.
Although the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence filed a lawsuit against armslist.com last month on behalf of Vesel's killer, the website isn't legally culpable because it merely connected buyer and seller.
More, although the private seller in the Vesel case violated federal law by selling to a foreigner (private sellers are also prohibited from selling to anyone they know wouldn't pass a background check), one can easily see that Smirnov's purchase wasn't quite so innocuous as a "face to face purchase by a couple of guys."
There was, in fact, no face-to-face interaction involved in the Smirnov purchase.
The Guardian adds, "At least 4,000 [web]sites engage in weapons sales in the US," meaning these sites are helping to link thousands of private sellers with prospective buyers across the country — no face-to-face interaction or previous affiliation required.
You can bet, too, that the seller in the Vesel case isn't the only one not bothering with troublesome issues such as whether the buyer is a foreigner or would pass a background check. And though the seller in the Vesel case has been sentenced to 12 months in federal prison, how many other illegal private-seller transactions won't be uncovered until the weapons are used in a crime?
Also consider an undercover investigation conducted last year by the gun-control advocacy group Mayors Against Illegal Guns (MAIG is founded and headed by NYC and Boston Mayors Michael Bloomberg and Thomas Menino, respectively).
According to both the Guardian article cited above and to the MAIG website (prtl-sitea-maigs.nyc.gov), in that investigation, MAIG sent undercover investigators to seven gun shows in three states. The investigators were able to purchase numerous guns and hi-capacity magazines despite, in many instances, telling the sellers they likely couldn't pass a background check.
Of the findings in that investigation, the MAIG website states:
"— 35 out of 47 sellers approached by undercover investigators at these gun shows completed sales to people who appeared to be criminals or straw purchasers."
"— 19 out of 30 private sellers broke the law by completing a sale to a buyer who they thought could not pass a background check."
"— 16 out of 17 licensed dealers approached by investigators at gun shows were willing to sell to someone who appeared to be a straw purchaser (a straw purchaser is one who legally buys a gun on behalf of someone who couldn't pass a background check or otherwise legally purchase a gun. A straw purchase is a felony)."
Moreover, according to Gregg Lee Carter's book "Guns In American Society: An Encyclopedia," a sizable list of police organizations support "past and present legislative efforts to control guns," including the Fraternal Order of Police, the International Brotherhood of Police Officers, the International Association of Chiefs of Police, the Police Executive Research Forum, the National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives, the National Troopers' Coalition, the Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association, the National Sheriffs' Association, and the National Association of Police Organizations.
I can think of no one better informed on gun-related issues and laws than the men and women who patrol and protect America's streets day and night.
And despite the already sizable length of this piece, I could continue for pages and pages. On its surface, the issue seems very complicated.
Hardly anyone will disagree, however, that we, as a society, must do a better job of keeping guns — especially semi- and fully-automatic ones — out of the hands of criminals and of the mentally ill.
With more than 300 million handguns, rifles and shotguns (www.csmonitor.com) currently owned by Americans (translating into roughly 88.8 guns for every 100 people as of 2007), what better way to begin curbing senseless gun violence in this country than to start with taking the most dangerous, unnecessary weapons out of circulation?
Yes, I know, some will argue there are plenty of law-abiding Americans who are perfectly capable of responsibly handling a Bushmaster .223 (the civilian version of an AK-47 and the weapon used in the Newtown massacre).
But I ask you, what price for the freedom to own such weapons? And as Adam Lanza demonstrated Dec. 14, not everyone who gets hold of these weapons will be properly trained in their use or capable of using them responsibly.
Perhaps it's me who's thinking about this from the wrong perspective. So I ask you Decatur County, tell me what I'm missing. Why do we need these assault weapons available to the general public? Why is the "gun show loophole" necessary? Why do we need more than 300 million guns in the US civilian population, including semi- and fully-automatic assault weapons?
I welcome any and all to email me your differing opinions or your reasons for agreeing. In the final analysis, what I'm looking for are constructive, realistic solutions for keeping guns out of the hands of evil people like Adam Lanza. I'm looking for meaningful, real-world ways to keep our children safe — yours and mine.

Comets baseball team sweeps three games
- Last Updated on 12:22 PM 04/23/12
- BY Joe Chandler
When you talk about big numbers on the baseball field for a high school baseball team, the numbers can't get much bigger than those posted by the Halifax County High School varsity baseball team.
In a busy late-week schedule, the Comets won three games in three days, crushing William Fleming High School 20-2 in four-and-a-half innings in a Western Valley District contest here Thursday, and overwhelming Freedom High School 21-0 and 18-1 in a doubleheader Friday in Woodbridge.
During that three-game span, the Comets posted 59 runs and 57 hits, and improved their record to 6-3 overall and 2-0 in Western Valley District play.
The most important game of the three games was Thursday's district contest against William Fleming High School. That victory put the Comets at 2-0 in district games and has them standing at the top of the district standings.
"That's what we wanted to do," Comets Head Coach Kelvin Davis said Thursday of his team's big 20-2 win over William Fleming High School.
"Starting out 2-0 in the district is very important for us. When we get into playing GW and Franklin County, all of the wins are going to be important."
Comets hurler Ryan Puryear had a good outing in Thursday's game against the Colonels, striking out 11 of the 19 batters he faced, while allowing two hits, three walks and two earned runs.
"Ryan has been struggling, and we've wanted to give him some more outings on the mound," Davis explained.
"I thought he threw well. We're still looking for more from him. He knows it. We've just got to keep working."
The Comets had 20 hits in the game, with William Worley leading the team with three hits and two RBIs. Two of his hits were triples.
Will Harris, Patrick Barton, Puryear and Tristan Howerton had two hits each for the Comets. Only three Comets players failed to get a hit.
Halifax County High School also took advantage of 10 William Fleming High School errors to help its scoring.
"The hitting came through for us," Davis pointed out.
"I thought we hit the ball pretty well when we had opportunities."
The Comets started with a 4-0 lead in the first inning and added nine runs in the second inning to put the game out of reach with a 13-0 lead. Halifax County led 17-0 before William Fleming scratched up a pair of runs in the top of the fourth inning.
Halifax County High School also had a field day Friday in its sweep of the doubleheader against Freedom High School.
Seth Elliott pitched the first game for the Comets, allowing only three hits and one walk and fanning three batters enroute to the Comets' 21-0 win.
The Comets had 19 hits in the game, with Harris going a perfect 4-4 at the plate with one RBI. Ryan Yates and Nick Anderson had three hits each, with Worley, Joe Martin, Rufus Jeffress and Dylan Hendricks each getting two hits. All but one of the Comets players that saw action in the game had a hit.
In Friday's second game against Freedom High School, Ford Bradshaw struck out nine of the 21 batters he faced and allowed one hit, one walk and one run as the Comets scored an 18-1 win.
Puryear, Yates, Martin and Bradshaw each had three hits, with Andrew Hamlett and Avery Anderson each getting two hits.
Halifax County High School will return to action here Wednesday night when it faces Garden City (N.Y.) High School in a scrimmage game set for a 7 p.m. start. On Friday, the Comets will face Cosby High School of Richmond here at 1 p.m.

SI cover of Favre in Lambeau Field snow globe another hot seller
GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) -- Once again Packers quarterback Brett Favre is on the cover of Sports Illustrated -- and once again the magazine is flying off the shelves.
In the Green Bay area, Bosse's News & Tobacco had 1,000 copies on hand. Jim Smales of Green Bay was among about 100 people waiting in line there Thursday morning, hoping to get three issues.
He says his wife got him up at 5:00 Thursday morning so he'd be there.
There was similar demand last month after Sports Illustrated named Favre its 2007 athlete of the year. So many people clamored for that issue that the magazine had to do a second printing -- and then an unprecedented third printing.
Magazine spokeswoman Karen Dmochowsky says early sales figures for this issue aren't available. But she says she's not surprised by the demand after what happened last time.
Posted Wednesday --- January 16, 2008 -- 10:25am
We all know that Favre was named Sports Illustrated's sportsman of the year last month.
Now Favre will appear on the cover of SI again this week.
Here is an early look at the cover that will hit newsstands Thursday with national distribution on Friday.
38 year-old Favre has silenced critics who said he should have hung it up a couple of years ago.
His play has also inspired his younger teammates who know as long as number four is under center, green bay has a fighting chance.
Again, the magazine comes out Thursday so make sure you get your copy before it sells out.

Original recipe yields 8 blintzes
- Place the milk, whole eggs, salt, and flour into a blender. Blend until smooth. Refrigerate at least 20 minutes. Meanwhile, make the filling by beating together the cottage cheese, egg yolk, melted butter, sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract in a bowl with an electric mixer until smooth.
- Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
- Melt some of the 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Pour in about 2 tablespoons of the batter and tilt the pan to completely coat with the batter. Cook until golden on the bottom, and no longer wet on the top, about 2 minutes per crepe. Repeat with remaining batter.
- Place 1 to 2 tablespoons of the filling near one edge of a crepe. Fold this side up towards the center, then fold the sides in. Fold the top over the filling, and place seam-side-down onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining crepes and filling.
- Bake in the preheated oven 10 minutes, then sprinkle with cinnamon sugar, and continue baking until lightly golden, about 5 minutes more.

This a good recipe but I would suggest some modification. 1) Double Crepe batter and adjust thickness with milk to the consistency of Heavy Cream. Leftovers freeze well for about a month. 2)Place the Cheese in a fine sieve or cheese cloth lined colander overnight to firm and dry. Drained Ricotta works very well, or, depending on your part of the country, Friendship Farmers Cheese is a classic choice. 3)For an Extra Crispy exterior, saute over medium/high heat in Butter turning until Brown and Crisp. 4)To finish sprinkle with cinnamon sugar OR Top with your favorite Fruit Preserves and Sour cream. I'm partial to Strawberry or Blueberry! Enjoy...JJ
I followed recipe, but used ricotta cheese. Batter was just fine. I even used skim milk. Served with strawberry preserves and sour cream, a must. This is a hit with my friends and me.
I had two problems with this recipe. The crepe batter was too thick and after struggling to get it to spread in the pan, I added water to make it workable. I had the opposite problem with the filling. It was very thin and difficult to work with. Even after beating on high speed for 5 minutes, it was still not really smooth, as called for. The thinness of the filling made it hard to get much filling inside the crepes and there was a lot of filling left over. I wonder if the cottage cheese should be drained before adding?

A release from the Office of the Governor:
Gov. Dannel P. Malloy announced Tuesday that he will introduce legislation during the upcoming regular session of the General Assembly that establishes "benefit corporations" in Connecticut, intended to provide legal protections to businesses that use profits to advance a particular cause or to promote other social benefits.
The creation of this new corporate form will draw these types of businesses — commonly known as social enterprises — to our state, encourage current and future social entrepreneurs already working in Connecticut, and create new jobs while benefiting the public good.
"By creating a new corporate entity — the benefit corporation — Connecticut entrepreneurs can start businesses that compete in the private sector while also working to solve the toughest social and economic problems that our communities face," said Malloy, who announced the legislation at the Pratt Street offices of reSET, the Social Enterprise Trust, in Hartford. "This legislation will help ensure that social entrepreneurs create benefit corporations and jobs here in Connecticut, and encourage a new generation of social entrepreneurs dedicated to improving our communities and our state."
Under current law, traditional business corporations can operate towards any legal purpose, its board of directors and officers must work toward the financial interests of its shareholders, and it is not required to evaluate or report on its social or environmental performance.
Under the governor's proposed legislation, benefit corporations will be simultaneously subject to traditional business corporation laws, but:
- Allows social entrepreneurs to mix profit and purpose by providing a public benefit that has a materially positive impact on society and the environment taken as a whole, as opposed to only considering business practices that maximize shareholder wealth;
- Are held accountable for living up to its stated commitment by being assessed by a third-party standard measuring the extent of the social impact created; and
- Are required to give annual "benefit reports" to shareholders and to the public through their websites.
Nineteen other states, including New York, Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Vermont, have passed similar legislation.
"All of us who are working toward the goal of making Connecticut a hub of social enterprise are delighted that Governor Malloy is demonstrating leadership by introducing benefit corporation legislation as a centerpiece of his legislative agenda for the 2014 session," said Kate Emery, CEO and founder of reSET, a not-for-profit organization that promotes and encourages the growth of social enterprises in Connecticut. "reSET, the Social Enterprise Trust, has been providing educational and support programs to social enterprises and there is a clear demand for this new form of business structure. We will work hard to attract bipartisan support for the bill, and look forward to speedy passage and adoption into law this year."
The proposal will be included in the Governor's legislative package for the upcoming 2014 regular session of the General Assembly, which begins February 5. The Governor is also scheduled to give his annual State of the State address on opening day of the session.

A Poem for Chad (although I didn't know it at the time-he was only 7 yrs. old)
A Dream of Light
There was one who always listened
There was one who truly cared
Who held my heart in his warm hands (video: Feelin' Way Too Damn Good)
And kept it gently there
How he wanted to be there for me
When the dark came crowding in
How he longed to take me in his arms but... (cesura) (Faraway)
He only knew of me then
A Dream of Light was what he was
As he existed solely in my mind
When I awakened, he was gone
Real life has not yet been so kind
Still I know he's Somewhere for me (Someday)
In another time and place
And when we meet in a magic moment (Gotta Be Somebody for Me)
I trust I'll recognize his face (All the Right Reasons)
For who am I to rightly judge
The genuine from the sham
Didn't I feel his presence sure and true? (I thought it through-I got you to myself)
Wasn't that where it all began?
Maggie Ringland
Far Away
This time, this place
Misused, mistakes
Too long, too late
Who was I to make you wait?
Just one chance, just one breath
Just in case there's just one left
Cause you know, you know, you know (cesura)
I love you
I loved you all along
And I miss you from Faraway for far too long
I keep dreamin' you'll be with me and you'll never go
Stop breathing if I don't see you anymore
On my knees I'll ask last chance for one last dance
Cause with you I'd withstand all of Hell to hold your hand
I'd give it all, I'd give for us, give anything but I won't give up
Cause you know, you know, you know (cesura)
I wanned, I wanted you to stay
Cause I needed, I need to hear you say
I love you and I loved you all along
And I forgive you for bein' away for far too long
So keep breathin' cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe it hold onto me never let me go, hold onto me never let me go,
hold onto me never let me go
Chad Kroeger-music by Nickelback
When Leonard and I wrote the review for Faraway, the part about Mike's baseline being a lullaby came from both of us. Leonard Bernstein taught me how to appreciate Danny Adair's drum lines and especially the base drum, and Ryan Peake's Second (not in the least) Guitar blended so well with Chad's First Guitar that we couldn't really hear it until recently. I don't know the whole story yet (Leonard Bernstein spiritually does, and he ain't telling), but the sturm and drang of this Love Story as well as the Gotta Be Somebody for Me part of it is beyond astonishing.
I really do keep Trying Not to Love You, Chad, but I can't help but keeping Holding Onto Heaven; ya goddamned Tease, you!
On the other hand, sometimes I just haven't gotten you figured out. You compose stunning music to draw me in for years and literally years. You finally have my attention and my love, but it still seems to me, Darling, that it's all about you. I handed you a heart more than worth breaking; and for some reason, you just keep breaking it. I honestly MUST be crazy--as a woman who goes back to the man who insists on continually neglecting her. I suspect I know why. I think you just want it to be perfect or some such other nonsense, when I could give a flying fig. As Boz Scaggs says, "What do you want the girl to do? Can't you see you're breaking her heart in two when all she really wants is you." But you never, ever stop pushing me away with both hands. It's still all about the idea of me rather than me to your mind, and you cannot seem to get beyond that, my Darling Chad. It's too bad, so sad. I don't accept messages from people I haven't met. Look what your money bought! Much as I want to, I can't bring myself to look-like the love letter you left in my clean laundry. And in "Defending Your Life," towards the end of the movie when she invites him up to his suite, and he says he just can't cause he's afraid of being judged, etc. He loves her so very, very much (and she right back), but he cannot allow himself to go to her; and as a result, he hurts both of them--so much. Now in that movie, Daniel overcomes his fear. What about you, my Darling Chad? What about you?
Your music literally saved my life when all I could see was darkness. Actually, it was your lyrical poetry and music, Mike's bass lines: (dum, dum, dum, da-dum) Danny's bass drum: dum-dum, da-dum. Faraway is so rich & full & absolutely amazing in its depth, it's honesty and its ability to comfort. Listening to Faraway and Wildfire in either direction gives aesthetics, life and beauty a depth of meaning heretofore untouched, plus a little Gino Vannelli, Richard Marx, Marnie Nixon, Steve Perry, Daughtry, etc. My rotator cuff is hurting like hell so I cannot begin to mention all of you--not just in music--but in all areas of aesthetics who, if we are to successfully stand together, will make a real difference. Bob Redford a huge hug and all my genuine admiration and love go out to you. And Paul sends his love but also a bag of mint chocolate cookies to guess who? I'm not to the point yet where Love can lead me into laughter and fun times. I'm into the part where it constantly hurts. So, I either have to grow him up (if he wants to) or ultimately find someone else. Right now, I so don't want anyone else. But I must hang on to my self-respect and my hard re-won integrity, as well as my ethics. Compromising those for anyone will find anyone back in Hell fast. Been there, done that, done with that!
Love always and forever (& I know what all those words truly mean),
Maggie Ringland a/k/a The Creator

Of course, it's the old Chad Kroeger trick to duplicate the communication to indicate that he read it rather than actually respond to it. Old Scientology trick too. A;so, sorry for pointing this out. It's also inconsiderate and rude, and shows that you cannot originate communication to God. Still too many withholds and missed withholds. Maggie Ringland

The Port Arthur News
The opportunity to listen to what the Port Arthur mayoral and council candidates have to say about their platforms arrives April 23, but it comes at a price.
The Greater Port Arthur Chamber of Commerce holds a monthly member luncheon, and this month theme's is to meet the city's mayoral and council candidates and give them a chance to get their platforms out to the business community before the May 11 election.
The luncheon, which costs $25 per person, will be held at the MCM Elegante Hotel in Beaumont at 11:30 a.m.
But for some directors on the Port Arthur Economic Development Corporation board, that location is not satisfactory. In fact, one director said, it is insulting.
"It needs to be in Port Arthur. I just don't think that it makes any sense to hold a mayoral race or any type of race in another city," said Roosevelt Petry, an EDC director, at its Monday evening meeting. "Quite frankly, as a citizen I'm insulted."
Other board members agreed that the location was strange since it was not in Port Arthur but thought that attending could be important to the future of the EDC itself.
Richard Wycoff, another EDC director, suggested that the decision be left up to the individual, and if that individual decides to attend then the EDC would pay for the $25 ticket.
Still, Petry said, the luncheon did not meet the guidelines the EDC follows on how to allocate its funds.
"I don't see why we should be paying taxpayers' dollars to go see this," he said.
While EDC members have regularly attended chamber luncheons in the past, Petry said he felt that this one was different "because it's political and because it's tied to a campaign."
Guy Goodson, the EDC's attorney, said there were some political overtones with the luncheon but that he did not think that the EDC's paying for its members to attend violated any laws.
"These are business partners of yours in the economic development initiative, and if anything is going to be discussed that might impact the EDC and your future course of business, then a representative might want to be there to listen to those candidates," Goodson said. "The question is: Is it meritorious to spend a limited budget on this?"
Goodson further emphasized that the chamber could not hold political functions because of its qualification as a nonprofit, or 501(c)(6), entity. Ultimately, the EDC board voted 5-2 to allow individual board members to attend and the EDC to cover the ticket cost.
Each candidate — and they all agreed to attend — for the mayoral and council election will have 5 minutes to talk a bit about themselves, present their platforms and convince the audience for whom it should vote. There will be no debate, no name-calling and no finger-pointing, said Bill McCoy, chamber president.
"If that's not classified as a political forum, I don't know what is," Petry said.
But McCoy said that the chamber was making every effort to keep the luncheon fair because it cannot back any political candidates.
"We're not supporting anybody," he said. "[The chamber] is in charge. This is not a debate."
The chamber thought that having the candidates come and speak about the issues they would address if elected would be interesting to its members, McCoy said. It was an idea to get its members to come out and hear someone of interest speak, but he did not blame the EDC for watching its money closely.
"That's their obligation," McCoy said. "It's their money to watch. They're acting responsibly."
So, why couldn't the chamber book the Holiday Inn on Jimmy Johnson Boulevard or the civic center?
The Holiday Inn was booked, and the civic center was too expensive, McCoy said. He did not think he could fill up the civic center's space, and it was not within the chamber's price range. He expected around 150 people to attend.
The chamber booked the MGM Elegante Hotel because it was a member of the chamber and could accommodate the luncheon's spatial and budget needs, McCoy said.
"We target Port Arthur," he said, "but sometimes we have to move out about."

Some new residents have moved to Port Washington. About 25,000, actually, have set up camp in the front yard of Bethel and Mike Metz.
In July, Mike brought home 25,000 honey bees from Indiana and set up a hive outside their house on the 100 block of E. Van Buren Street.
"We love it. We absolutely love it," Bethel said.
Bethel got the idea to purchase a hive after she saw something about it on TV. She cautiously brought up the idea to her husband, who surprised her when he approved. Mike's grandfather used to be a beekeeper, so he said he was happy to jump on board with the project.
Before bringing home the bees, Bethel and Mike took three classes on how to handle and raise honey bees at the Urban Ecology Center in Riverside Park.
Charlie Koenen, who taught the course, said he has seen a growing amount of interest from suburban communities and would like to spread his bee education classes up to Ozaukee County.
In the first class, "Beesenation," no bees are involved, just education and information about how they live. The second class is a hive inspection, where students suit up and are able to meet the bees while learning about their homes. The third is a hands-on class about how to handle and care for honey bees that live in what's called a top bar hive, where bees are stacked horizontally.
After completing the classes, and getting the thumbs up from City Administrator Mark Grams, Mike drove to Indiana to pick up their bees. Mike described the task as a tricky one, since the bees had to ride along with him in his truck's cab all the way to Wisconsin.
Mike and Bethel said they have learned a lot from the process. For Bethel, the biggest lesson has been to slow down.
"If you rush, you're stung. It forces you, when you're manipulating a bar you have to do slow, gentle, deliberate movements," Bethel said.
They said the bees have also been a teaching tool for their 7-year-old son Baker and 10-year-old daughter Olivia.
"We taught them to be good stewards of the bees," Bethel said. "You know, you don't stand by their openings. We taught the kids no swatting. No fast movements. They're not allowed to play with the soccer ball [around the hive]."
The Metzs said the children were buzzing with excitement when they told them they would be raising bees. Mike and his son are especially excited to eat the honey they will produce, although they will not get to enjoy any this season. The bees will need to eat what they have made so far over the winter, but should be able to make honey for the family to enjoy next summer.
For Bethel and Mike, hive inspections are a fun two-person job that has taught the couple how to work together on the project.
"He's had to tell me a few times, 'you're tipping the bar a little bit, slow down a little bit,' but we have a lot of fun when we inspect," Bethel said.
The ideal time to do a hive inspection is on a calm and sunny day around lunch time, not in the morning or evening, and never when it's really windy or raining.
"It's always nice to find your queen, but it won't always happen," Bethel said.
Beekeeping can be a tenuous trade, in this way. The bees may decide to make a new queen, which Mike said indicates that something is wrong with the old queen, or they're getting ready to swarm. If they swarm, half the hive could leave.
If The Metzs can't find the queen, they look for larva as a sign that she's around.
"You're looking for what are called teacup cells, which are cells that the rest of the bees will make if the queen is sick or if they're ready to overthrow the queen. It's okay to find them, but you want to make sure that they're empty," Bethel said. "If they've taken a larva and put it in there and are feeding it royal jelly, then that means they're making their own queen."
The Metzs rely on a support system of fellow bee keepers in the area, so if they ever run into a problem with their hive, they can call others to get advice on how to handle it.
While some people may not be excited about the idea of having thousands of bees in their yard, Bethel and Mike encourage people to ask questions and learn about them.
"Come check it out," Bethel said. "If you think that it's an issue, come check it out."
"It's just relaxing, watching them," Mike said. "I put an engine in my truck a couple weeks back and I started getting tired or frustrated doing something, so I'd go sit by the bee hive and watch the bees come and go. It's very therapeutic. I never thought it'd be that enjoyable just sitting and watching insects coming and going."

Rockland County Executive C. Scott Vanderhoef is expected to announce his proposed 2013 county budget on Tuesday, the day it is due to be submitted to the legislature.
The legislature's Budget and Finance Committee has already scheduled a discussion on the yet-to-be unveiled spending plan for Wednesday at 7 p.m.
The county has a budget deficit of approximately $96 million. A property tax increase and other revenue generating measures were implemented over the course of the year. On Friday, Vanderhoef proposed the creation of a Local Development Corporation (LDC) to which the Summit Park Nursing Home & Hospital would be turned over to in preparation for their eventual sale. The two facilities cost the county between $10 and $15 million annually and have lost money for the past several years adding to the county's financial problems.
In addition to reviewing the proposed 2013 budget, Committee Chair Ilan Schoenberger said he will present a proposed law, "The Deficit Reduction Act of Rockland County" to the legislators. It would require $10 million of every budget go directly into a separate account to create a reserve fund that would be applied to the deficit.
"I want it to be the first appropriation of a budget," said Schoenberger.
He said since the state refused to let the county raise $80 million through issuing revenue bonds then the county should take steps to put aside that money. Schoenberger said the reserve fund could use the same funding source as has had been proposed for the revenue bonds.
Schoenberger said he hoped the money the county could potentially receive from the proposed LDC in anticipation of a sale of Summit Park would be applied to the deficit reduction fund. The LDC needs county legislative approval. According to Vanderhoef, the LDC could borrow money against the value of the Summit Park facilities once they are transferred. A consultant's report on the valuation of Summit Park was expected on Friday.
The legislature also set a November public hearing date on the 2013 budget.

Taking the unusual step of responding to recent market rumors, BankUnited /quotes/zigman/3647057/delayed/quotes/nls/bku BKU -2.11% said that after completing a "preliminary process" of considering strategic alternatives, management decided that it will "continue to pursue its original plan to build the premier bank throughout Florida as an independent institution." Earlier this week, at least two companies submitted preliminary acquisition bids for the Miami Lakes, Fla.-based company, according to a Wall Street Journal report. BankUnited also said will release financial results for the fourth quarter on Jan. 25.

IFF said it expects to realize 2012 savings of about $9 million on a pre-tax basis as a result of the move.
Oneok /quotes/zigman/189815/delayed/quotes/nls/oke OKE -1.95% said its board voted to increase by 9% the energy company's quarterly dividend on common stock, to 61 cents a share, payable Feb. 14 to holders of record as of Jan. 31. The increase is noteworthy in that it's greater than the projected hike of 4 cents a share that the Tulsa-based company had forecast last September. Oneok also had indicated then that it expects to increase its dividend to the tune of 50% percent by 2014.
The board of McGraw-Hill Cos. approved a 2% increase in the quarterly cash dividend on common stock, to 25.5 cents a share, the New York-based company said. It marks the 39th straight year in which McGraw-Hill has instituted a a dividend hike. The dividend will be payable March 12 to stockholders of record as of Feb. 27.
The board of Winmark Corp. /quotes/zigman/86918/delayed/quotes/nls/wina WINA -0.18% approved the payment of a special $5-a-share dividend, amounting to a total payment to shareholders of about $25 million, the Minneapolis-based company said. It will be paid March 1 to holders of record as of Feb. 8. Winmark's board declared a regular quarterly dividend of 3 cents a share, also payable March 1 to shareholders of record as of Feb. 8.

Background: It has been suggested that melatonin improves sleep functioning, but this possibility has not been studied in medical populations.
Method: 33 medically ill persons with initial insomnia were randomly assigned to receive either melatonin (N = 18) or placebo (N = 15) in a flexible-dose regimen. Double-blind assessments of aspects of sleep functioning were obtained daily across the next 8 to 16 days.
Results: The mean stable dose of melatonin was found to be 5.4 mg. Relative to placebo, melatonin significantly hastened sleep onset, improved quality and depth of sleep, and increased sleep duration without producing drowsiness, early-morning "hangover" symptoms, or daytime adverse effects (p < .05). Melatonin also contributed to freshness in the morning and during the day and improved overall daytime functioning. Benefits were most apparent during the first week of treatment.
Conclusion: Melatonin may be a useful hypnotic for medically ill patients with initial insomnia, particularly those for whom conventional hypnotic drug therapy may be problematic.

The streak stayed alive. A Big West Conference record was extended. And the first round of a slugfest between the top two conference teams lived up to its billing.
None of those things, it turned out, were good for the Cal Poly baseball team, but there was little shame at Baggett Stadium on Friday night in a 3-2 loss to UC Irvine.
"We did everything that we could to win this game tonight," junior right fielder Nick Torres said. "Really the only difference that would have changed everything is if we came away with a 'W' instead of a loss.
"If we come out of this with a win, we're coming out saying, 'Wow, what a great game we just played.' We can't look at it in a negative way. Everybody's still confident."
Mustangs starter Matt Imhof struck out 13 in eight innings, and closer Reed Reilly struck out two more in a perfect ninth. Torres was 2 for 4 at the plate, Mark Mathias had a run-scoring single, and Jordan Ellis executed a perfect squeeze bunt for the go-ahead run in the third inning.
But Big West-leading and No. 23 UC Irvine (34-14, 15-1 Big West) countered No. 7 Cal Poly (39-10, 14-5 Big West) at every turn.
Anteaters starter Andrew Morales allowed only two runs on five hits and a walk while striking out nine to improve his Division I collegiate record to 19-0. The senior right-hander is unbeaten in two seasons and owns a 30-1 record including his time at Rio Hondo Community College.
UC Irvine closer Sam Moore extended his conference-record and nation-leading saves total to 23 with a scoreless ninth. Owner of a nasty splitter, Moore started each of the four Mustangs batters he faced on 0-2 counts.
Torres led off the bottom of the ninth with a bloop single to left, but he never got past first base as Moore struck out the next three batters.
Opportunities were few against all four pitchers, but the Anteaters came up with two clutch RBI singles and a sacrifice fly that scored the winning run in the fifth inning and played error-free in the field.
Cal Poly only had one error, and it was a costly one. Attempting a pickoff play in the fifth, Imhof was off on his throw to second, and UC Irvine's John Brontsema advanced to third on the play with one out.
That allowed Chris Rabago to drive in Brontsema with a sacrifice fly to right, which Torres caught on the run in foul territory.
Imhof gave up three runs, two earned, on three hits and four walks. The 13 strikeouts represented his fifth double-digit total of the season and were two short of his career high.
"Overall, it was the best he's been in a while," Mustangs head coach Larry Lee said. "He really had the fastball command and we threw a few changeups and the slider was OK, but he threw well."
But that unearned run ended up being the difference.
"It's on me throwing that ball into center field," Imhof said. "Getting that guy into scoring position; if I eliminate that, if I make a good throw, it's a 2-2 game.
"I felt good today, felt like I pitched a pretty good game. It just sucks that you leave it all on the field, and you lose by a run in a game like this. It's just tough to swallow."
There is, however, a streak going in Cal Poly's favor, although not as impressive as Morales' run.
Imhof has taken losses in the opening game of three series prior to this one, and each time, the Mustangs have rallied to take the next two.
Regardless of what happens in the next two games, Cal Poly needs help to overtake UC Irvine for the conference lead, but a series victory would go a long way in convincing people the Mustangs deserve to host an NCAA Regional.
Imhof's previous three losses came at UCLA in February, at home against UC Santa Barbara in April and last week at UC Riverside.
The Mustangs whipped the Bruins 8-1 and 9-1, edged the Gauchos 8-7 and 1-0 and took out the Highlanders 7-5 and 7-2 after the Imhof starts in those series.
Cal Poly has always responded to an Imhof loss with a bunch of runs, and that's what the Mustangs will likely need against the Anteaters.
UC Irvine sends Elliot Surrey to the mound. The left-hander is 6-2 with a 2.09 ERA, though he is not nearly as overpowering as Morales.
The good news for Cal Poly is that Mustangs batters are hitting .321 against left-handers, a 34-point improvement over their averages against righties.
Sending freshman Justin Calomeni to start today, Cal Poly needs its offense to come through again.
"We need to be able to swing the bat," Lee said. "We'll need that. We really need to get back to swinging the bat. We had a couple guys in the lineup tonight that were just outmatched and it showed, but that's one of the better pitchers in the country, and they're playing as well as anybody."

I will be on vacation through Aug. 3 and not posting to this blog.
One City Hall observer, upon hearing the news of my vacation, suggested that I "volunteer" my time to The News for at least eight hours a week, four on Tuesdays and another four on weekends. And yes, the suggestion came in the form of an e-mail. But not from Tanya Perrin-Johnson.
I don't want to leave you readers completely high and dry, however, so here's a couple of things you can do while I'm off.
First, take a look at the list of contributors to the Brown re-election campaign and post a comment or shoot me an e-mail with your observations. Help me connect the dots.
Here are the links:
Individual contributors reported Jan. 15
Corporate contributors reported Jan. 15

Second, kick back and enjoy a summer-themed video. Gee, there are so many to choose from.
How about "Summertime Blues" from my favs, The Who?
"Boys of Summer" from Don Henley?
Or "In the Summertime" from Mongo Jerry? That one brings back warm memories.
Good stuff, to be sure, but not quite the theme I'm looking for. Not given the past month.
Hey, I've got it. "(Hot Time) Summer in the City," by the Lovin' Spoonful.
Hit it, boys.
