As expected, the Glendale City Council agreed to pay the NHL an additional $25 million that would keep the Coyotes in Arizona for another season. The vote, 5-2, was agreed upon late Tuesday night. The city paid the NHL $25 million last week for operating expenses for the league-owned team for last season.
With the Coyotes safe for another season, the NHL can continue to work out a deal with prospective buyer Matthew Hulsizer. It could also search for another owner as the deal with Hulsizer has been complicated and been met with some resistance from a local watchdog group concerned with the use of taxpayer money.
The vote could prove to be more than a one-year fix despite the on-going ownership issue. Included by the vote was a provision that the NHL has the right to renew the agreement annually for 10 years. That could mean up to $250 million to the league to cover the losses incurred by the franchise.
Phoenix has long had the eye of True North Sports and Entertainment, a Winnipeg group interested in purchasing the franchise and relocating it to Manitoba.
The news is not good for the Thrashers as True North is likely to move its efforts to obtain a team to Atlanta.
"We are continuing to seek solutions for the Thrashers," Thrashers co-owner Bruce Levenson told the AJC Wednesday. "I will not comment on any speculation."
The Atlanta Spirit has been trying to sell the Thrashers in earnest for several years. Co-owner Michael Gearon Jr. told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution in February, and again last week, that there is a "sense of urgency" to find a buyer and/or investor to keep the team here. If one can not be found, relocation is possible. With Winnipeg ready to pay $170 million, $60 million which would go to the NHL as a relocation fee, the door is open.
I was told this week that such a deal "could move quickly."
I know this is not good news for Thrashers fans. The fact is there is a possibility Atlanta could lose an NHL franchise for the second time. A move may not come in time for next year. It may not come at all. The search does continue for a local buyer with at least two groups expressing interest in keeping the team here. However talks have not moved past the preliminary stage. Perhaps Tuesday's news out of Arizona will speed up the process.
I expect a lot more will be known in the next 7-10 days.
Colleague Tim Tucker and I continue to report this story and will bring you any news as there are developments.

Chris V,
"I was told this week that such a deal 'could move quickly.' "
Assuming that you cannot divulge your sources, could you at least give us an indication of what direction it comes from? We all know that if it was up to the scums at ASG, the deal to ship the Thrash north would have happened a long time ago. Same story from the Winnipeg folks. However, the brakes on this process has always been the NHL. Has there been any indication that the Mr. Bettmen is ready to give up on Atlanta so quickly, after working so hard to keep the Yotes in Phoenix?
May 11th, 2011
8:09 am
I know the Thrashers have been "for sale" for several years, but I thought Gearon said they could not seriously consider anything until recently because of the lawsuit? That the Belkin situation caused them to not have clear title to the team? If this is true, then how can anyone say AS LLC has put in enough time to find a new owner who will keep the team here?
May 11th, 2011
8:09 am
I echo AtlFlamesFan…why would the NHL go through so many hoops to keep the Coyotes in Phoenix and then let the Thrashers go in a heartbeat?
Let's hope the NHL fights as hard to keep a team here…and that the clowns at ASG are gone as quickly as possible. Can we send THEM to Winnipeg?
May 11th, 2011
8:10 am
"I was told this week that such a deal "could move quickly.""
Chris – This is all conjecture on your part. By not naming a credible source all you do is p**s off Thrashers fans. Unless you are posting new quotes from Daly or Bettman there's no point. I, like many other Thrahers' fans, find it hard to believe that after standing behind franchises in Tampa, Nashville, and now Phoenix for three years with similar ownership problems the NHL will sell the Thrashers off to True North in a matter of weeks.
Do you really expect us to believe that the NHL thinks Glendale, Tampa, Nashville, and Winnipeg are better hockey markets than Atlanta? Bettman may be a lot of things, but he didn't get to where he is now by being stupid. Any moron can see the problem with the Thrashers is a lack of ownership, not a lack of interest in hockey.
May 11th, 2011
8:13 am
Chris Vivs doing his best to cater to Winnipeg trolls yet again.
May 11th, 2011
8:13 am
Also, don't tell me the NHL needs to sell to recoup losses from having to take over the Phoenix ownership. That new TV deal the NHL signed off on with NBC and Comcast says the NHL's finances are just fine.
May 11th, 2011
8:22 am
Soon enough a the penny will drop. Hockey is and always will be a a niche sport. Over the years the NHL has tried many ways to bring "new" fans to the sport but it has not worked. Unfortunately it has been a pipe dream that ATL can sustain a hockey team. Again there is not enough of a fan base since it is a niche sport and I have always been a hockey fan for 30+ years, am a northern transplant to the ATL area, spent my time & monrey for over 10 years since I had become a Thrasher (ex-Devils) fan by deafult.
Now there are sustasinable fans on the sport on the blogs of the AJC but it is sorely the minority. Reality is = hockey can not be sustained just like it is hard to find "greens" on the menu in Camden. That is the way it is because it is that way
May 11th, 2011
8:30 am
DeanC: I am a NJ transplant too. If the Devils missed the playoffs 10 of 11 years they would have moved to Nashville in the mid 90's.
Few markets in the US would tolerate the Thrashers level of suck.
May 11th, 2011
8:31 am
DeanC, I respectfully disagree with you. We are just now beginning to see the fruits of hockey in Atlanta, check out the youth leagues in the northern burbs (someone please open a rink on the SOUTH side) and the roller leagues on the south side. A new generation is growing the game here.
Also, the first 5 to 6 years was just fine attendance-wise. The Thrashers were mid-pack in average attendance.
Losing and a lousy ownership group will keeps fans away. It happened in Pittsburgh, it happened in Chicago, it happened in Washington, it happened in Boston. Why do people expect Atlanta to be any different?
May 11th, 2011
8:32 am
DeanC – How do you explain the Thrashers having numerous sellouts and averaging over 16,000 fans per game the only year they made the playoffs. Everybody on this blog buy up all the tickets?
May 11th, 2011
8:33 am
DeanC, are you aware of the growth of youth and adult hockey in the Atlanta area at all? Also, dropping the fact that you've been a hockey fan for 30 years doesn't make you an expert on the sport's viability in Atlanta. The thrashers were never given a chance in this town.
Also, I wonder if you have the same feelings for your Devils, a team whose attendance is regularly in the NHL basement. Their attendance was terrible even after winning the Stanley Cup. We should start Devils to Winnipeg rumors.
May 11th, 2011
8:45 am
WITHOUT respect, I disagree with DeanC. He's a moron. Would he have suggested that the Blackhawks move before they won the Cup and that Chicago wasn't a hockey town??? Go back to Jersey and stay there….
May 11th, 2011
9:02 am
Nevermind Dean, the issue is lack of anything concrete to report. Chris is fanning the Flames as it were. If there were groups speaking publickly, we would know. But they aren't. Quotes from ASG jackholes mean nothing. So we must be patient until something tangible surfaces.
Until then, a heart punch for Detroit, Boston and Vancouver….
May 11th, 2011
9:02 am
I keep coming back to the fact that it would be ludicrous for the nhl to replace the atlanta market with winnipeg. To the extent they could keep that swap from happening I think they will.
May 11th, 2011
9:08 am
That's a lot of $ and the ASG wants desperately to shed this team, the only person that can save us is Bettman putting the breaks on this deal, but the $60M in relocation money doesn't help. And with the fight in PHX I'm not sure he has it in him to hold another franchise in limbo until an owner appears.
It is just a crime that a new franchise that went 10 years being completely uncompetitive, with only one tiny sniff of the playoffs is blaming the fans for the possible relocation.
We deserve better, this management and ownership group should all rot in hell for destroying a new franchise faster than any other in the history of sports and then trying to blame it on the fans.
ASG, admit you are over your head, sell the Hawks/Thrash/Arena at a discount and leave town.
May 11th, 2011
9:09 am
[...] Chris Vivlamore of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution: So with the Coyotes remaining Glendale for another season, the True North Sports and Entertainment group will turn their attention to Atlanta in their quest to bringing the NHL back to Winnipeg. The Atlanta Spirit have been trying to sell the Thrashers for several years, and there is a "sense of urgency" to find a buyer/investor to keep the team in Atlanta. Relocation is possible if they can't find an owner to keep the team there. True North could be ready with $170 million, $60 million would go to the NHL for relocation fees. The deal could move quickly. A deal may not get done in time for next year, if at all to move the club. There are 2 local groups showing interest to keep the team, but talks haven't gotten past the preliminary stages. [...]
May 11th, 2011
9:10 am
ludicrous? Free tics to an ATL and 9.99 for an ATL vs MTL game is ludicrous… team is leaving, however, you may have the glory of a lame duck season.
May 11th, 2011
9:12 am
It drives me crazy that there is little to no info what any steps are being taken to keep the team in Atlanta. There surely has to be some sort of effort going on from the NHL's end.
May 11th, 2011
9:13 am
It has nothing to do with fans and everything to do with ownership and lack of support from them in dollars. No one can lay any blame on the fans. Any team in any sports that would have been in the same situtation as the Thrashers have for the whole existence would be in the same boat. I just hope someone saves the team before this ship sinks.
May 11th, 2011
9:13 am
Speaking as a Thrashers fan who expects the Thrashers to stay (True North will try to wave money around, the NHL will stall them just long enough to make the Atlanta buyers actually step up instead of waffling), I have to say that Glendale got rooked big-time in this deal. At least the Atlanta buyers aren't expecting the city to fork over a ton of change… sheesh.
May 11th, 2011
9:15 am
I too thought that a $60m relocation fee would be incentive for the NHL to let the Thrashers move. But that would have also applied to Phoenix, and obviously that did not happen. Bettmen must believe that the NHL's long term interests are better served in Phoneix than Winnipeg. I cannot imagine that he would think any less of Atlanta. Especially considering what we have gone through with our ownership.
May 11th, 2011
9:19 am
I agree with others how about the ASG moves to Winnipeg and sell it to someone who cares. Terrible ownership. No stars want to play here and the draft picks who become stars leave ASAP (Heatley, Hossa, and Kovie) because they know they'll never make the playoffs. Outside of Cubs fans no one is willing to pay to see a losing team year after year.
May 11th, 2011
9:21 am
I've been told by an unnamed gas station attendant that I could win the lottery. Such a win "could happen quickly," as soon as 10:59pm tonight.
Look, Chris. I liked what you did during the regular season. Until this "story" started to take shape, that is. Since then, there's been a lot of talking, but yet saying nothing at all.
The conjecture and speculation in this and similar stories is painful to read through. Not because of what might happen, mind you, but because there's very little actual reporting being done.
I respect what you've done thus far, Chris, and respect you as a person. However, with no investigations and no real reporting, I can't say that I enjoy reading this stuff. This is TSN or Winnipeg Free Press level of gossip.
May 11th, 2011
9:25 am
Amen Alan R!
May 11th, 2011
9:25 am
Agreed with Alan R. C-Viv is doing nothing but brightening the spirits of the Winnipeg people. Starting to side with JK more than I am with Viv now. At least JK's story is beneficial to us
May 11th, 2011
9:38 am
I'm out of town and can't get 680 on a work computer. Anyone know what JK had to say this morning on the Rude Awakening?
I'm not sure what Cviv's agenda with this story is. Very odd takes on the situation. And the moving quickly comment just hangs there like a motza ball…
May 11th, 2011
9:45 am
Look, I like you guys in Atlanta. (unlike Phoenix) but you do have to realize Winnipeg is very interested in any topic of NHL relocation and this will remain the case until we get a team.
I sincerely wish you guys the best of luck (unlike Phoenix) in keeping your team. But until that team is sold, we're sitting here with deep pockets and a deep hockey fanbase. But you all have to understand that this is equally as excruciating for Winnipeg as well. We all know what your going through, trust me. Thats why there would have been some justice in the Phoenix debacle. Truth be told, I am far more interested in Buf, Ladd, Little, Kane, Enstrom, Pavelec, etc… you guys have a great team. Someone commented earlier on the 1 out of 11 seasons with success, Winnipeg can handle this. We just enjoy watching the best in the world and having that chance to hoist the cup. It means a lot to us. of course winning is always preferred. I hope it can mean more to most of Atlanta and you guys can thrive. Personally, im just so tired of this soap opera. Good luck you guys.
May 11th, 2011
9:52 am
Crommers, Winnipeg had playoff contenders in the past, and couldn't break 90% capacity in a 15,000 seat arena. And during pre-season, the MTS Centre hosted the Stanley Cup Champion Blackhawks (with native Winnipegger Toews) and the Lightning to a non-sell out crowd (less than 15,000). If Winnipeg is so NHL-starved, as the internet trolls claim, then I would've expected standing room only seats and 100%+ capacity during that game. The fact is Winnipeg is too small of a market to sustain a professional sports franchise long-term.
May 11th, 2011
9:53 am
So you wanted to be a journalist?! Now if you were reporting from Afghanistan, you'd have real bullets flying by your head, rather than the verbal ones being sent your way.
May 11th, 2011
9:55 am
Some of you guys are wanting C-Viv to just tell us what we want to hear. I don't think that's realistic.
I'm still optimistic (for some reason) that we're keeping the Thrashers in town. Bettman has gone through hoops to keep the Coyotes in Phoenix for years now and he hasn't even had a chance to get started here in ATL. Phoenix has a winning team, makes the playoffs frequently and still has attendance issues. ATL will support a winning, even a decent team. We just haven't gotten the chance because of the Spiritless owners we're currently stuck with. I really don't think Bettman will just ignore Atlanta. Fingers are crossed, but I'm optimistic on this one.
May 11th, 2011
9:56 am
A season ticket blitz should be organized immediately with the help of local media (newspapers,radio,TV) as well as businesses with headquarters in Metro Atlanta.Sacramento (NBA's Kings) and Glendale/Phoenix have recently succeeded in keeping their teams for at least one more season.Why can't Atlanta? Where is the mayor on this and why no interviews with the mayor and city council?!!!!
May 11th, 2011
10:01 am
@This guy… yeah, 14,200 for that EXHIBITION game at NHL PRICES! Dude, it was an exhibition game with numbers far beyond several struggling teams during REGULAR NHL games… That exhibition game brought in more money than any of your 2 for 1 or 9.99 nights. Watch how quickly NHL moves ATL. NO way they are going to go through this again next year with BOTH ATL and PHX needing an owner. From the cupcake summit in PHX to the Balkan in ATL LOL, yeah, way to NHL seriously. They're done.
May 11th, 2011
10:01 am
Crommers, I'd love to see an EXPANSION team in Winnipeg, great for Winnipeg, great for the game.
I'd also love to see the ASG be the owner and Don Waddell the GM of the new Winnipeg expansion team and let you have a taste of what we experienced here.
May 11th, 2011
10:03 am
Bernard Shakey, you guys love to make excuses for not being able to sell out. Sorry, but the NHL doesn't want your city.
May 11th, 2011
10:03 am
@jimcee… season tic blitz? Like your save the Thrashers really with reported 25 people! Not happening.
May 11th, 2011
10:08 am
@this guy… LOL, yeah, the NHL doesn't want a BILLIONAIRE owner in their group LOL.. what's your exscuse with the dress like a seat night at every ATL game and arresting your mascot…lame. oh wait, bad ownership, right? Couldn't be simply that people in GEORGIA don't take to hockey.
May 11th, 2011
10:13 am
I'll give you an example, Chris:
The Atlanta Spirit has been trying to sell the Thrashers in earnest for several years.
Incorrect. They could not sell due to litigation between the current members of the Atlanta Spirit, LLC and estranged member Steve Belkin. There was no clear title to the team, or any other holdings. They could only begin trying to sell the team "in earnest" in December. This information is widely known, yet seldom reported.
What will happen is, national and Canadian news sources will cite this blog posting as fact, and make the same claim as made above. It is incorrect information. A quick perusal of the legal filing the Atlanta Spirit, LLC made against King & Spalding will clearly show my assertion is factual. They could not sell.
Now, what of investors, one might ask? Several reports in the past have indicated that investors were scared away by the ongoing litigation between Snow Belkin and the Seven Morons.
A post by Canada's Elliotte Friedman yesterday claimed that The Raine Group has been telling prospective buyers of the Thrashers that the arena is better off without a hockey tenant, and they could make more money without the Thrashers. That would be a good story to chase.
I know you know we're frustrated, Chris, but given the small example I've just provided, maybe you can see why we're frustrated. To those who claim we're frustrated because we're not getting what we want to hear, I have one word for you: Bollocks. Don't sit there and try to discredit us, when we know there is a lot more to the story than is being reported.
One last note: Jeff Schultz informed all of us back in February about the Atlanta Spirit. Those who did not know at the time, quickly found out what a sorry bunch of liars those folks are. Depending on them for factual remarks is unwise, at best.
For folks who want to actually try to save this team, email Gary Bettman. His address can be found on the official Thrashers forums. Make sure everyone you know, and everyone those people know, find out exactly how much we love hockey here. Scream loudly and proudly, and make sure your voices get heard.
May 11th, 2011
10:14 am
Chris – There's an old saying that if you don't having anything nice to say, don't say anything at all. The same should apply to journalists with a twist. If you don't have anything new to report, don't report anything at all. All you or Tucker have done is regurgitate the same articles from TSN and Winnipeg Free Press.
May 11th, 2011
10:16 am
The seed of DESIRE TO SELL was there for the Spirit group. Just b/c they couldn't at that time does not mean they did'nt want to. They have alwasys wanted to sell. Al Strachon reported this December of 2009 "TNSE is putting the finishing touches on the purchase of ATL"… and then the Bankruptcy in PHX happened and stalled the whole process…
May 11th, 2011
10:22 am
@ This Guy,
Whats your excuse then for not selling out? Would Atlanta have sold out an exhibition between Chicago and Tampa? Doubt it. Cause they're not YOUR teams! The exhibition each year is like a slap in the face to any Winnipeg NHL fan. I'll be signing up for seasons as soon as im able to, but i wont go see the NHL's patronizing exhibition. I was a Jets fan, still am, and want a home team to cheer for.
May 11th, 2011
10:24 am
However, Chris, it's a stretch at best. It also doesn't address the reports that investors – including Dominique Wilkins – were scared off due to the litigation that was in progress.
How would you feel if you invested money, only to find out it went towards court costs?
May 11th, 2011
10:27 am
You're right when you say the ASG is wealthy enough to cover losses.
The reality they produced ac
May 11th, 2011
10:27 am
Lastly, I'm sure I'm not the only one interested in what the Raine Group has to say about this:
4) Interesting: Word is The Raine Group, which is handling the sale of the Atlanta Thrashers for Atlanta Spirit LLC, is telling prospective buyers the team can be moved because having those dates available for other events (ie. concerts) is a better financial option than hockey. Neither a phone call nor a follow-up email were returned by 10 p.m. ET Monday.
May 11th, 2011
10:32 am
chaz, the difference is that Thrashers fans don't claim their entire city is made up of NHL fans that will sell out every game. Of course a pre-season game between Chi and Tampa wouldn't sell out in Atlanta when we can't even sell-out our regular season games. Don't make such a silly comparison.

When Desire Dies: Bringing Your Sex Drive Back to Life
WebMD asked top sex experts to explain what happened to your libido and what you can do to get lovemaking back on track.
By Colette Bouchez
Reviewed by Louise Chang, MD
"I used to enjoy making love with my husband but now it's something I do just to get him off my case. I can't figure out where my sex drive went or how to get it back. "
"Once my partner and I 'get started,' I really enjoy our sex life. The problem is I just don't ever want to get started."
"I always thought my husband and I would be making love until we were 90. But I just turned 39 and my libido is nowhere to be found."
If these sexual issues sound familiar, you're clearly not alone. Experts say that a lack of interest in making love -- even with partners we adore in many other ways -- is not as unusual as we might think.
"A disappearing sex drive is a common problem -- sometimes in women as young as her 30's -- and while it hasn't reached epidemic proportions yet, I think we're only seeing a small portion of the women who are affected," says Rebecca Amaru, MD, a gynecologist at Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York City.
Indeed, in one global study of sexual problems published recently in the Journal of Impotence Research, up to 43% of women expressed a loss of sexual desire, beginning as young as age 40. Similarly, up to 36% of women who were having sex reported they weren't enjoying it.
Understanding Your Sex Drive - Or Lack of It
For some women, low sex drive or even the inability to have sex is linked to specific problems. According to renowned sex therapist NYU professor Virginia Sadock, MD, this can include illness, medications, or sometimes even a specific physical problem related to intercourse.
"It can also be the result of hormonal changes that begin in the 40's. A lack of lubrication, for example, makes sex less comfortable and over time that can dampen desire," says Christiane Northrup, MD, author of The Wisdom of Menopause (Hay House).
When low sex drive is health-related, experts say, the solution is easy.
"For some women all it takes is a little dab of either lubricant or estrogen cream on the clitoral area. You can't believe how many women suffer, not realizing how easy this problem is to solve," says Northrup.
But while for some women the answer might be as close as that tube on the nightstand, Sadock says, for many others the lack of libido is intimately linked to the complex emotional algorithm that makes up a woman's sex drive.
"If a woman is upset, confused, tired, if she is feeling overworked and under appreciated, even if she is not consciously aware of some problems within her relationship, I can promise you that a tube of lubricant is not going to be enough to make her feel like having sex," says Sadock.
Case in point, the Journal of Impotence Research study found that relationship problems were frequently at the heart of many women's low sex drive.
Moreover, Sadock says other studies found that even when a woman's body is turned on, she won't recognize it if she's not emotionally open to making love.
"In one study conducted in the Netherlands doctors found that even when measurements of vaginal lubrication confirmed sexual excitement, a woman didn't perceive desire if she was not in touch with the idea of being turned on," says Sadock.
This, she says, can also occur when self-esteem is low.
"When you don't feel good about yourself, if you view yourself as undesirable, then you'll push desire out of your mind as well," says Sadock.
Finding Your Sex Drive Again
So how do you coax your sex drive out of hiding?
For women who need a little encouragement that intimacy is still within their grasp, Sadock recommends giving fantasy a try.
"Put your partner out of your mind and focus strictly on sex," says Sadock. Imagine, if you will, having the most wonderful, delicious, glorious romp with anyone you desire -- a movie star, an old flame, a mysterious stranger -- and then see how you feel.
"Even if you don't get overwhelmingly excited, if you can at least feel a sense of openness about sexual excitement, then there is little doubt that your desire is still intact," says Sadock.

Free Texting App Text Free
5,000,000 - 10,000,000 downloads
- Text and call for free Pinger and non-Pinger users
- Pinger points system
- Neat minimalist interface
- Push notifications and group chat
- Only text and pictures can be shared
- Pinger is only available in US, Canada and Spain so far
+ By Pinger, Inc.
"Knocking down communication barriers"
Reviewed by Emmanuel Lund / Mar 13, 2013
Pinger Messenger is a global free calling and texting multi-platform app
Instant messaging apps with push notifications were a revolution that changed forever the way we communicate through mobile devices. The main catch of those services is though, that both sender and receiver need to install the same app, sign up the same service and of course, having a smartphone. Pinger is going a step further: a free calling and texting service that ensures free communication even with those users that haven't installed the app or even without a smartphone.That's why, according to ComScore, Pinger is one of the Top 5 downloaded and used apps.
It works this way. Both text and calls between Pinger users are completely free. Message feature work pretty much like other instant messaging apps: push notifications, chat window, groups and media sharing. It uses VoIP technology to place calls. It works perfectly over WiFi and pretty good over data (depending on the signal quality).
Unlike other messaging apps, when those friends you want to call or text aren't Pinger users you can still contact with them through Pinger. SMS to any number are always free. Calls to non-Pinger users require a positive balance of in-app points (Pinger Points). After signing up, users get a free amount of Pinger Points as well as a fully-functional local second phone number. Pinger points allow them to call and text non-Pinger users for a limited time. However, Pinger users can earn those points too: they'll refill their saldo when receiving calls from both mobile and landlines numbers. This system turns communication into a game and gives the chances to users to keep calling and texting for free. Anywa, ff they run out of points, they can purchase packs directly from the app.
It goes without saying that the local second phone number that Pinger provides their users with enables devices with no SIM-card (iPod and iPad) to use calling and messaging features.
Pinger's set in a neat minimalist interface that makes navigation really intuitive. It's too sober though: I'm missing themes, background, emojis and some customization. By the way, main catch is that Pinger is just available in US, Canada and Spain from now. However, users from other countries can already join "Pinger without VoIP to non-Pinger users feature" by downloading TextFree app (iOS, Android and desktop versions).
Highly recommended.
With Pinger you get free texting AND free calling in one app. Let freedom ring!
Pinger gives your Android phone free text messaging AND free calling to any phone, including landlines and non-smartphones, in the US and Canada. Your friends don't need Pinger to receive -- they don't even need to have a smartphone. You get your own real phone number that you can use to call and SMS any phone number in Canada and the US, even if you don't have a calling plan.
Texting is totally free and unlimited. Incoming calls are free. You get 10 free outbound calling minutes to start, then you earn minutes for additional free outbound calls. And if you run out of minutes, it's easy to buy super cheap minutes.
LOOKING FOR ONE APP TO TEXT AND CALL? Free your voice on your Android device. Pinger is packed with a bunch of great features:
• Free calls to any phone in the US and Canada
• Get a free second line for your phone
• Send unlimited free SMS to more than 35 countries
• Get full screen text and call notifications
• Know the instant someone reads your texts
• Sync your contacts' photos with Facebook
• One view for texts, calls and voicemails
• Call or text for free back to the US and Canada from anywhere in the world when you have a data connection or WiFi
• Zillions of ringtones and text tones
• Log in to your account from any device
With Pinger you can call or text any phone number, even if they don't have Pinger and even if they don't have a smartphone!
• Call or text your grandmother's non-smartphone in Minneapolis--FREE.
• Call any restaurant in New York to make reservations--FREE.
• Text a co-worker in Dallas or Toronto as much as you want--FREE.
• Messenger apps only work for text messages or calls between people using the app. And only when they have a smartphone.
Now you don't need to know what messenger apps your friends, family or co-workers use. Pinger does it all. Just use their mobile phone number and your texts are 100% free. Earn minutes for free calling to any phone in the US and Canada. It's that simple.
When your friends have Pinger talking and texting gets even better. The calls are in HD, so they sound great. And you and your friends get unlimited free calls (talk as long as you like) and unlimited free texts (goodbye 160 character limit!) to and from one another, anywhere in the world.
• Emergency calls are not supported
• Pinger is ad-supported, so you will see ads from time to time
• Tablet support coming soon
• When roaming, additional carrier data charges may apply. Contact your carrier for details.
• facebook.com/pinger
• twitter.com/pinger
You've been waiting for this update!
• Improved battery life.
• Call notifications are way more reliable. Never miss a call, even when app is in the background.
• Fixed a pesky crashing bug.

Thursday night's edition of The X Factor saw the elimination of rappers Lyric 145 and pop-soul singer Jennel Garcia .
Lyric 145, representing Simon Cowell 's Groups category, left the show automatically after failing to secure enough of America's votes. Jennel was voted off by the judges following a sing-off with fellow Young Adults category singer Paige Thomas . Both are mentored by Demi Lovato.
Once again the vote rankings were revealed at the end of the show, indicating that for the second straight week, country singer Tate Stevens was on top, followed by 13-year-old Carly Rose Sonnenclar , mentored by Britney Spears , and Over 25's act Vino Alan , mentored by L.A. Reid . Arin Ray , one of Britney's Teen acts, was in second-to-last place, just above Paige.
There was also a world exclusive live performance of "State of Grace" by Taylor Swift .
Here's how the results were announced:
--Hosts Mario Lopez and Khloe Kardashian Odom got down to business immediately and announced that Lyric 145, which was representing Simon's Groups category, had received the week's lowest number of votes.
The following acts gained enough votes to advance automatically:
--Teens/Britney Spears: Arin Ray, Carly Rose Sonnenclar, Diamond White and Beatrice Miller
--Young Adults/Demi Lovato: CeCe Frey
--Groups/Simon Cowell: Emblem3 , Fifth Harmony
--Over 25s/L.A. Reid: Tate Stevens, Vino Alan
--Two acts in Demi's Young Adults category, Paige Thomas and Jennel Garcia, faced each other in a sing-off situation. Jennel sang Hoobastank 's "The Reason." Paige performed "Paradise," by Coldplay .
--L.A., Britney and Simon voted to send Jennel home, with only Demi voting to send Paige home, meaning Paige will be part of next week's top 10.
The X Factor will return to Fox on Wednesday at 8:00 p.m. Eastern time.

Elton John says he was "much less nervous" for the birth of his newborn son, Elijah , than he was when he and partner David Furnish welcomed their first child, Zachary , two years ago.
Elton tells People magazine that as he and David awaited the birth of Elijah, "we tried to create a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere."
David chimes in, "I would say we feel more secure in our parenting skills now -- it's far less scary than the first time 'round!"
Elijah was born via a surrogate -- the same woman the couple relied upon to bring Zachary into the world -- on January 11 in Los Angeles.
David says he and Elton will eventually tell Elijah how he became a part of their family. He says, "We kept a scrapbook for Zachary with all his scans, emails with the surrogate and key moments from the surrogacy, and we are doing the same for Elijah."
The clan will remain in Los Angeles for the next few months before heading back to England.
You can read more from Elton and David in the new issue of People magazine, hitting newsstands this Friday.

An unflinching look at the heart of racial inequality in Canada This one-hour documentary unearths the story of the children, women, men who were students and teachers in Canada's racially segregated schools. With a vibrant musical score composed by jazz legend, Joe Sealy, it is a poignant and unfailingly honest evocation of the struggle of African Canadians to achieve dignity and equality through education. Extraordinary archival film footage, rare photographs, and touching first hand accounts from past students, teachers, historians and community leaders, are interwoven in this unflinching look at the heart of racial inequality in Canada. Shot on location in villages and cities in Ontario and Nova Scotia, the film is a compelling illustration of how many of the students who attended Canada's all-Black schools look back on the experience with conflicting feelings: fondness for the dedication of their Black teachers, and outrage at being denied a right, fundamental to democracy in Canada: equal access to quality education.

St-Henri, the 26th of August
On August 26th, 2010, fourteen filmmakers recorded multiple stories in the Montreal neighbourhood of Saint-Henri. The resulting film is a touching, funny and fascinating day-in-the-life of an eclectic community. Doris roams the streets collecting bottles; Belinda is a vibrant hair stylist from Togo; Babyface, the fifteen-year-old Canadian featherweight boxing champion, prepares for a match; Robert and Edmée enjoy their golden years together; and urban explorer Danielle scales abandoned buildings and descends into Saint-Henri's sewers. These are just a few of the characters we follow in St-Henri, the 26th of August, a film that explores what community means to us today, and how we inhabit our neighbourhoods. Inspired by the 1962 NFB film "À Saint-Henri, le cinq septembre", this unique collaborative project brings together some of the brightest talents in Montreal's contemporary documentary scene to capture these compelling stories.
Twice Upon A Garden
Created during the 1930s, not far from the 49th parallel, Les Jardins de Métis are unlike any other. Situated at the confluence of the Mitis, the legendary salmon river, and the majestic St. Lawrence estuary, they are protected by the site's unique geography and microclimate. This botanical paradise stems from the labours of Elsie Reford, who in 1926 decided to transform her Gaspé fishing camp into gardens. Today, they display some 3,000 species and varieties of indigenous and exotic plants along a kilometre and a half of pathways. Every year, tens of thousands of visitors come to see Elsie's gardens, which have constantly evolved over the past eighty years, as well as the International Garden Festival, which was founded by her great grandson Alexander, and which celebrated its 10th edition in 2009. A film on both the art of nature and the nature of art, Il était deux fois un jardin provides an inside look at these gardens and their growers. We see the plants throughout the seasons: during a memorable winter blizzard, in torrential rain, in serene summer nights, in the last rays of autumn sunsets. We also get a glimpse of several artists as they set up their installations for the festival.
Song of the Lodz Ghetto
world music
Song of the Lodz Ghetto, the new feature-length documentary by David Kaufman, is a comprehensive historical account of Poland's "first and last" Jewish ghetto, established by the Nazis during the Second World War in Lodz, Poland's leading industrial centre. It was the first closed ghetto established in 1940 and the last to be liquidated in August, 1944. The film has a particular focus on music in the Ghetto and is built around a selection of ghetto songs performed by the renowned Jewish music group, Brave Old World. The film is also the first documentary to feature extensive interviews with survivors of the Lodz Ghetto. The film tells its story partially through a focus on two historical figures: the controversial, despotic, Nazi-appointed Jewish leader of the ghetto, Chaim Rumkowski, who is reviled by many historians, and the Ghetto's popular street-singer, Yankele Herszkowicz, whose remarkable songs lifted the spirits of the Jews of the ghetto when their lives were full of despair, and whose own tragic life mirrored the fate of Polish Jewry. Rumkowski was a Jewish community functionary, elevated by the Nazis to lead the Ghetto, who gambled on German economic self-interest to sustain the lives of the large, highly-skilled and productive Jewish labour force. Herskowicz was a poor tailor who had a genius for broadside lyrics and who sang, literally for his supper, to keep himself alive in the impoverished ghetto and who formed a one-man opposition to the corrupt ghetto administration. The film is also a feast of historical photography, three hundred images selected from 13,000 taken in the Lodz Ghetto, including many in colour. The film features interviews with many survivors from Lodz including Chava Rosenfarb, the renowned Yiddish writer who died recently, with Herszkowicz's family, and with several historians.

MILWAUKEE, Wis. (WTAQ) - Prosecutors say a Milwaukee woman tried to drown her 2-year-old son in a hotel bathtub, and tried to grab a police officer's gun from his holster. 22-year-old Tiffany Jones is charged with attempted homicide and trying to disarm an officer.
Authorities said Jones held her son underwater in a bathtub at the Baymont Inn in Glendale last Wednesday – and she apparently thought the boy was dead when a guest in the lobby took the child, and the mother ran outside wearing just a bra. The guest cared for the toddler until paramedics could arrive.
Police said Jones was then running in traffic when an officer ordered her to drop to the ground, and she allegedly went for his revolver instead. Jones told investigators she has bi-polar disorder, and was trying to drown herself as well as her son. Police say the boy remains hospitalized, and he's expected to recover.

I was watching one of the extras on the "Pyramids of Mars" DVD yesterday. In it, they included a piece of deleted/never recorded Tom and Liz dialog. I recognized Liz's voice immediately. But after listening to it two or three times I could tell that TB's dialog was actually voiced by TB impersonator Jon Culshaw (I verified this in the segment credits). I always thought that Culshaw's TB was spot on. But when listening to it more in context (and close in time to listening to the real TB), the difference is really quite noticeable.
Anyone else notice this?

Light a Candle Against Violence
See You at the Theater
Topics: Arts & Media, Christian Living, Ethics, Media, Metaxas_Links, Movies, Worldview
Concerning the comment "quality films like "Les Mi
I am a film student in high school, and my grandfather sent me this article with an attached note stating, "My prayer is someday, you will make a difference within our God forsaken movie industry."
I would just like to make the point that while yes, Les Miserables is a wonderful and quality film, it is just as violent as Django Unchained. In Les Miserables, there are topics ranging from raping women who are working as prostitutes and torturing prisoners to the French Revolution where an entire barricade of men are shot down on screen.
Both Django Unchained and Les Miserables are based on a violent period in history which means in order to properly portray these stories, the movies must include the violence.
If you disagree with a director's style, such as Mr. Quentin Tarantino, that is your own opinion. Don't go see his films if you do not want to be exposed to that, but you should not try and embarrass him or guilt him into feeling bad because you disagree with his style. It is his artwork, and he may display it the way he chooses.
Also, if you're going to suggest a quality film to a Christian audience, choose something that would actually fit into that category, such as Courageous directed by Alex Kendrick. That is a quality film without gore and violence that the Christian family would enjoy.
Even "Evil" People Still Can Tell Biblical Truth
@Richard Wallace
You questioned Mr. Metaxas' judgment because he quoted Jamie Foxx and Bill Clinton, who have both engaged in frankly ungodly speech and behavior. Still, God can work through even ment like these to convey His truth.
For example, Foxx is correct that Hollywood should be more responsible in the movies it produces instead pretending to play no role in the school shootings like Sandy Hook. The racist and idolatrous statements he made in previous interviews does not negate this truth.
Similarly, despite his failure as a husband and father, Bill Clinton is still correct how what is right with America would solve the country's problems. We in the church are supposed to be what is right in America by defending and living out God's standard when no one else will.
The bottom line is that we can't reject truth simply because we dislike the messenger.
Sorry for the confusion; I'm not sure what happened there. It may be that Jim/gromit changed his username, which caused it to change on all his comments.
Jim who?
OK. I've got it. I've got the smoking gun! I have on my rapidly aging computer a copy of this page showing the first comment, posted January 9 at 8:59 AM (I believe that is Eastern Time) as by Jim Sauer. It now, as I type this post, says posted by gromit45. This not only makes my earlier comment seem the ravings of a lunatic (perhaps it is), but makes one wonder about Gina D.'s post, which is addressed to Jim.
I try to review previous comments before posting my own, if practical (if there are 100 pages of comments, it's not practical). If artistwriter had reviewed earlier comments, (s)he might not have duplicated much of Jim S.'s comment, nor ignored Gina D.'s response to it. Yes, the entire comment is not a duplication, but the first couple of paragraphs largely are.
Media Violence
How many more people see identical (or worse) violence in the X-box and online virtual games that are available for purchase than those that go to see production movies? How many of the people who have previously commented play "war games" on their home computers or game boxes? Why did the "young adult males" who have perpetrated violent crimes over the past several years choose to wear the "costume" that they wore?
Les Mis? Yikes.
I agree with you on violence, my heart applauded this article as I read but my heart sank when you recommended 'Les Mis' as a quality film.
My daughter read the review on PluggedIn and I hated it that she did, just PluggedIn's review contained information that would be in a cheap, sensual novel. http://www.pluggedin.com/movies/intheaters/les-miserables-2012.aspx
One of our trusted friends shared she rated 'Les Mis' as 'V' for Violating her conscience. Her family walked out of the movie including her adult son.
Many Christians today are selling their souls to the gods of Entertainment and Culture.
When will Christians not only make a difference but BE different?
I sincerely thank you for the opportunity to share my opinion.
Hollywood Out Of Touch & Unredeemable
Folks, let's face it, Hollywood is totally out of touch & unredeemable. Their product thrives on three ugly & unhealthy human traits to "entertain" American viewers & they are profanity, bloodthirstyness, & perversion. Even Disney "family" movies are loaded with unrelenting toilet humor. Ever since the late '60s movie dialogue has been inundated with profane language, gross violence, & gratuitous sex. There are very few movies from the late'60s to the present that are viewed in this household. My two favorite movie actors (John Wayne & Steve McQueen) were outspoken in their dislike & disgust for gratuitous sex, profanity, & violence so prevalent in movies since the late '60s. If both were alive today in Hollyweird they would not be working due to their non-conformity. Neither were perfect in their personal lives, but cared about what kind of product they put out. In short they respected their viewers. Today's Hollyweird does not. There has been ONE, only one movie made in the last ten years which was more than worth my money & it went practically unnoticed upon release. Also it was NOT a Hollyweird production. For those Christians who missed it watch & enjoy:
Movie violence
What does "reacting with compassion" in this post-Newtown world by the movie industry that "capitalizes on violent and crude entertainment" – not to mention gore – actually mean?
Quoting Evil People Favorably
Mr. Metaxas:
That you would quote Jamie Foxx favorably when he called Obama "our Lord and Savior" and said of his movie, "I get to kill all the white people --- how great is that!" , I seriously question your judgment. Also, quoting Bill Clinton favorably is beyond disgusting. I'm sure Hitler said something nice once and a while, but that doesn't mean it is worth quoting. Quote honorable people, not evil people. You destroy your own argument.

Jim, I read that Plugged In review, and honestly, most of the imagery they speak of goes by so quickly (with much of it in the shadows or in the background) that I can't believe they even saw it. I saw the film myself and missed a great deal of that. I have this mental image now of Plugged In reviewers standing five feet away from the screen and peering through giant magnifying glasses, because I don't know how else they could have caught all that. :-)
More to the point, some stories cannot be told without a certain amount of disturbing imagery. "Les Miserables" tells the story of people who have fallen about as low as anyone can fall, and let's face it, that's not going to look pretty. But this means that God's grace, when it comes to them -- and yes, we are explicitly told that it has come to them -- shines all the more brightly.
Les Mis is quality?
BreakPoint: "...go and see quality films like "Les Miserables.""
From pluggedin.com: Twenty or so prostitutes plying their "trade" beneath the docks expose just about as much skin as is possible in a PG-13 film, cupping their breasts, and shaking their torsos and backsides in the direction of potential customers. The famous "Lovely Ladies" song speaks of sailors "poking" the women and dropping their "anchors." And we see quick images of some of them doing just that in the shadow-shrouded grime and filth.

Rapid Detection of E. coli on Goat Meat by Electronic Nose
Much attention has been paid on the foodborne illness of food, which is easily contaminated with bacteria or pathogens. Escherichia coli (E.coli) is one of these bacteria that commonly live in the contaminated animal meat. There is a growing need in the food industry for pathogen detection systems that are sensitive to low levels of bacteria, specific to the target organisms, capable of yielding results at or near real time. Both contaminated and non-contaminated goat meat were tested using an electronic nose (Cyranose-320) which consists of 32 polymer sensors. We developed an electronic nose method for the rapid detection of E. coli O157:H7 in goat meat. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) method was applied to analyze the experimental data, and the results indicated that they either overlap or are very close making it very difficult for the device to correctly identify. E-nose has a potential for being used as a tool for rapid detection of contamination, although it is not able to detect very low concentration of the contaminant.

GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) -- An F-16 fighter jet that went down near Luke Air Force Base in suburban Phoenix most likely hit a bird before it crashed, an Air Force spokeswoman said Thursday.
Two pilots who were practicing landings and takeoffs at the base Wednesday evening ejected safely and the fighter crashed in a farm field near the base.
Base spokeswoman Lt. Candice Dillitte said Thursday that there's nothing to indicate a fleet-wide problem with the jets, but the Air Force will investigate the cause. The Air Force has more than 1,000 of the single-engine fighters.
The base, 15 miles west of Phoenix in Glendale, Ariz., trains pilots and has more than 130 F-16s. An instructor and a student were flying the jet that crashed.
Witnesses said they heard the jet's engine sputtering and popping just before the plane went down. Video from a TV helicopter showed plumes of smoke rising from the crash scene.
At a press briefing late Wednesday, 56th Operations Group commander Col. John Hanna said the pilots from the 309th Fighter Squadron needed to get out fast.
"It was severe enough to where the pilots on board the aircraft realized that they were not going to be able to execute a safe landing," Hanna said.
Bird strikes can severely damage jet engines. US Airways Flight 1549 lost both engines shortly after takeoff from LaGuardia Airport in January 2009 but landed safely in the Hudson River.
An inspector general's audit last year criticized the Federal Aviation Administration for not doing enough to stop bird strikes. The report cited a five-fold increase in bird strikes over the last two decades, from 1,770 reported in 1990 to 9,840 reported in 2011, due in part to growing bird populations. The strikes have led to at least 24 deaths and 235 injuries in the United States since 1988.
The report said the FAA's oversight and enforcement efforts were insufficient.

Suranadi, West Lombok—Wind rustles the palm fronds lining the paddy field below. Across the valley, a rooster tentatively crows. Even for village Indonesia, the scene is oddly quiet. Not a bad spot for some enforced reflection.
And that is exactly what I'm in for, this Nyepi – the so-called 'Day of Silence,' the first day of the Saka calendar that determines the yearly Balinese ritual cycle. No cooking is allowed. No electricity is used. Everyone in Suranadi, including me, must stay at home. Religious policemen patrol the lanes to fine violators.
That's okay with me. After living a year in chatty, clangorous Indonesia, I don't mind this rare, calm day filled with nothing but sunshine and birdsong. As a young reporter launching a career in a new country and about to be married, of course I have anxieties to reflect upon.
Then too, this silence is all the more welcome after the day I spent yesterday: following giant, day-glow parade floats, amidst crushing crowds, in sunstroke-inducing heat to the din of gongs and cymbals. The float imagery is all fangs and claws and disemboweled guts, vaguely drawn from traditional Hindu iconography, with a sprinkling of more contemporary social commentary – an enormous diapered baby to represent over-population, a rat in a necktie to depict corrupt officialdom.
These demons, or Ogoh-ogohs, are not real monsters but rather reminders of the many distractions that keep us from self-reflection, explained one local Brahmin priest, Ide Bagus. And in that way, the Ogoh-ogoh parade and silence of Nyepi are paired like Halloween and All Saints' Day—a purge of evil followed by a day of holiness.
None of this looks much like the Hinduism I saw growing up in South India which was chaste and vegetarian. But what would you expect from a country that considers Hindu cuisine to be pork sate.
Some Balinese themselves are bothered by this disjunction. At the edge of the parade route, a group of Hare Krishna devotees huddled around an altar where three tonsured Brahmins wafted incense with a peacock feather fan. Down the road, a thirty-year-old Hindu evangelist sold copies of the Bhagvad Gita. "Balinese Hindus today have lost their way," he said. "They get drunk, they gamble, they eat meat and eggs." An ex-cock-fighter, he mended his ways to bring himself "closer to the original text of the Vedas."
But by-the-book Hinduism doesn't get much traction in Indonesia. In fact, over the last twenty years, the eclecticism and gaudiness of the Ogoh-ogoh tradition has only gotten more lavish. This trend is unlikely to fade either as the artistes behind the effigies come from banjars or neighborhood Hindu youth groups.
As Brahmin Bagus put it, "art is for young people to make and old people to support;" making the month-long process of ogoh-ogoh building a religiously sanctioned riff on the meaning of evil and distraction. And the arts and craft exercise instills a good dose of religious pride, if not co-opting of Hinduism by the young.
On the day of parade, the uninitiated might mistake the event as a multi-kilometer mosh pit. Teenagers decked with heavy eye-liner and bleached blonde hair sport shirts that proclaim them 'Hindu.' In bold Helvetica, other shirts beg 'God Please Blessing Me.' Pre-teen gamelan players use soda straws to exaggerate their spiked hairdos, head banging as they clang cymbals and gongs. Even the closing burn of effigies is left to just neighborhood youth. At dusk, mothers in more traditional sarongs head home. The young are left to stare on alone as their Styrofoam creations evaporate into the plumes of fire.
Yet there is something truly edifying about the practice of making and purging the world of Ogoh-ogohs, as I learned when I sketched out my own personal demon to burn. The process of linking multiple issues together into one problematic creature to depict gave me a lot of clarity. It also offered the rare adult moment to draw. Burning the painting under the dark, star-lit night sky was a rapid tutorial in detachment.
This morning, I woke with more confidence and clarity about the world.
By afternoon, the religious police relaxed their monitoring. Kids ventured into the empty paddy field to fly kites in the frond-rustling wind. Mothers carried bundles of laundry to the temple spring. They are ready for the New Year to begin.
This piece was written March 12th. The Mataram Ogoh-ogoh parade was March 11th. My parents and I are traveling through the east Indonesia island of Lombok. These are updates from our trip in no particular order.

I like to swim very much. I want to be a good swimmer. I am willing to train hard and stick to the plan. I also like to drink a few glasses of wine and whisky. I don't think that it is a big deal but my friend who is a coach says that I should quit drinking completely if I want to get some results out of my training. Is he right?

Absolutely. Alcohol and swimming have nothing in common. If you want to become a serious athlete you should forget about drinking anything stronger than club soda. Even the smallest amounts of alcohol get in the way of recovery and can hinder all your efforts to become faster. Even if you don't want to compete you should consider not drinking at all at least for the health reasons.

What happens at an NA Meeting
"If you're planning to go to a Narcotics Anonymous meeting for the first time, it might be nice to know what to expect. The information in this section is meant to give you an understanding of what happens in our meetings. The words we use and the way we act might be unfamiliar to you at first, but hopefully this information can help you get the most out of your first NA meeting. If you show up early, leave late, and ask lots of questions before and after the meeting, you'll probably get the most out of every meeting you attend...
...People have all sorts of reasons for attending NA meetings, but the reason for each meeting is to give NA members a place to share recovery with other addicts. If you are not an addict, look for an open meeting, which welcomes nonaddicts. If you're an addict or think you might have a drug problem, we suggest a meeting every day for at least ninety days to get to know NA members and our program..."
(excerpts from the Service Pamphlet, "An Introduction to NA Meetings")
NA literature is also a great source of information about our program. Our Basic Text, Narcotics Anonymous, or our information pamphlets (IPs) are a good place to start. Most meetings offer IPs for free, while books are generally sold at the group's cost. Most of our literature is also available to read on this website.
To begin, we invite you to read IP #22, "Welcome to NA". Please come to our meetings and "Keep Coming Back!"

However some musicians have been known to acheive the pennacle of zuriel status not through talent but by extremely good looks and in some cases scandal.

Gun ranges are dealing with a problem. People are going there to die. Most customers go to them for target practice, but apparently some sick people go to commit suicide."I think we need to look at this as a public health issue," said Royal Oak City Commissioner Peggy Goodwin.She is proposing a policy -- if you're unknown to a shooting range, she doesn't want that range renting you a gun.She points to five suicides since 2001, all by people who rented a gun at Target Sports in Royal Oak. Incidents of suicide by a rented gun at a range have increased nationally."So I don't want to take away anyone's rights, but I do want to see if that particular store could enact some policies that would prevent somebody that's coming in there in a moment of distress -- because I do believe suicide is preventable -- and maybe detouring them from harming themselves or others," Goodwin said.A new policy is posted on the walls of Target Sports. It reads, "Due to change in our insurance, all firearm rentals must be done in a group of two or more individuals.""My staff is trained and we constantly remind our staff to engage our customers. We want to know what their particular mood is, what their feelings are as they come in here to perhaps rent a gun or try a gun out," said William Kucyk, who operates Action Impact gun range in Southfield."I have trained range officers. I pay for those range officers. They're out there at all times that we're open. They're doing a number of things. They're there for free instruction. They're evaluating. If they think somebody's committing a safety violation, they address it. If somebody needs help, all they have to do is request it," he added. "If there were signs of depression, then we would address that and ask that person to leave the range."Kucyk has brought in Dr. Eric Coffman, a specialist on addiction, who also works with Action Impact range officers on how to interact with customers."He encourages his employees to have discourse with the customer, to see what kind of eye contact they make, to see if they look like they've been using any drugs or alcohol, and he's very conscientious about that," said Coffman.In Royal Oak, there is a three-pronged attack to this issue. The police department, the city commissioners and the gun range owners have gotten together and they're sharing ideas. There's a meeting Monday night at city hall where they'll try to plan for a new strategy.Goodwin would like her proposed policy to become an ordinance in Royal Oak. She is also taken this idea to the attorney general. She thinks it is something the State of Michigan should look at and enact as a law.
