Koplinski, a councilman for five years, announced at the Capitol that he will seek the Democratic nomination for the No. 2 executive-branch slot in state government.
He vowed to be an advocate for municipal governments and said his experience dealing with Harrisburg's fiscal crisis underscored the need for reforms to give cities and towns more flexibility to raise revenue.
Koplinski, who also considered running for Harrisburg mayor, could face competition in the May 2014 primary. The winner will be paired with the gubernatorial nominee in a single Democratic ticket for the general election.
Republican Gov. Tom Corbett has said he plans to seek a second term next year, and Lt. Gov. Jim Cawley's spokesman said he assumes Cawley will stay on the ticket.
"They have not talked about it, but I would be surprised if his name were not on the ballot," said spokesman Chad Saylor.
More than a half-dozen Democrats have held open the possibility that they may compete for the gubernatorial nod, but only one—state government veteran John Hanger—has declared his candidacy.
Koplinski is also a lawyer and has worked on several major Democratic campaigns, including serving as political director of the late Sen. Arlen Specter's 2010 re-election campaign.

For the money this is one of the best replacement necks on the market. Fit and finish need nothing although I did add the satin finish to this neck to help keep any oils from soaking into the wood. This was my first attempt to build a Telecaster from scratch and Stewmac made it simple. I will definitely purchase more from Stewmac for future projects. Keep up the great work! Thank you!
I bought one of these necks and I dropped in vintage Kluson tuners in with absolutely no problem. This neck rules.
Peg hole dia is about 10mm, that is fine, but the pitches of hole center to center are a bit wider than Kluson type peg's reccomendation, about 0.6mm. These 5 slits are not beautiful. Of-course, you need conversion bush in this case. Neck itself is so good for Telegib build, wow!
The maple was plain and straight like I asked. The rosewood was slightly wavy but ok with nicely sanded finish. The fret ends were sticking out slightly. The nut was poor quality and there was a lot of cement holding it in place. There was a noticeable hump in the neck. Once the leveling / fret dressing was done and bone nut installed it turned out quite decent. Overall, the quality is average but expect to make some finishing touches before installation.
I recently built a tele style guitar and purchased the Stew Mac tele neck. As soon as it arrived I installed it, strung it up and did a quick set up. The neck is awesome, smooth as silk and excellent fret work. If you want a high quality neck without emptying your wallet this is the neck for you.
I recently ordered the maple Telecaster neck from Stew Mac to replace the original on my '91 American Tele. The truss rod in the original neck had been maxed out for quite some time, so the playability had been in steady decline. I looked into getting it repaired and got several estimates, which ranged from $150 on up. After weighing the pros and cons of having the original repaired vs. installing a new neck, I opted for the latter. I figured I will still have the original neck, and I can still get it fixed without having to rush into a decision as far as what shop, what procedure, etc.
After getting this neck from Stew Mac and installing it, I've been so thrilled with the way it plays and sounds that I've all but forgotten about getting the original fixed. I couldn't be happier with it- especially for the price. It feels and plays every bit as good as the original ever did, and I think it might even sound better than my original did.
For the amateur/hobbyist like myself, I should mention that installing the neck required some drilling (the four holes to mount it to the body, the two little holes for each tuner, and two holes for the string retainer). Also, in my case- the fret ends required sanding as the wood likely contracted and they stuck out a bit on either side to where I could feel the sharpness when I ran my fingers up and down the sides of the fret board. But the frets were nicely crowned and the nut was to factory spec.
There are a few minor differences between this neck and my American original. This neck has 21 frets as opposed to 22 on my original. (It doesn't have the tongue at the base of the neck). The original neck has a walnut plug at the base of the headstock where you access the truss nut, while the one on this neck is black and appears to be graphite. Also, the truss nut is closer to the opening and can be reached with the smaller end of a standard allen wrench, and it's larger (requiring a larger size allen wrench), which I personally like better. But the most noticeable difference for me was the lack of a Fender logo on the headstock. Obviously, this is only a superficial difference- but it's something to consider. I ended up making a decal to exactly match my original logo and serial number and it actually turned out pretty good. (It's OK- I'll never sell this guitar.)
Overall- knowing what I know now- I would buy this neck again in a second! I just wish I would have bought it a lot sooner.
Might Mite replacement neck makes my home-made Telecaster nice and smooth to play
Ok - as has been stated in other reviews this is a Might Mite neck. Not sure why SMac fails to mention this in their product description, but they are clearly marked as such. Could it be that we could get these necks much cheaper elsewhere? I don't know.
That said - the neck fit perfectly in a Fender Esquire body. Drilled the holes, bolted it on, put on the tuners and strung it up. Needed no tweaks, no problem with the nut - easy. As I have found with Mighty Mite necks the fret ends needed a little more sanding, nothing bad though. Finish on the headstock shows some overspray but only in good light.
This is the thrid neck I've tried on this guitar and it is the one that is going to stay. As always SMac's service was great, just wish they'd be upfront about where they actually get these necks from - guess that's our job though.
I've used two of the #5719 necks from Stew Mac and both jobs turned out A+. I highly recommend Stew Mac for all your guitar repair or custom needs!!!
Have had two of these necks now, first one was great but a little disappointed with the last one. Slight damage to the heel, looked like it had been dropped on the inside corner, and the Maple had a pronounced grain pattern, a bit too gaudy for my liking. The nut was high on both, and needed some slot work to take 10's strings.

helps with blood sugars
Posted by Reviewer2116517 on Dec 08, 2011
Purchased at iHerb
I'm a Type I diabetic and this helps regular my blood sugars. It takes some getting used to for my digestive tract, but it does really work and is also great for curbing cravings.
Abit pricy

Purchased at iHerb
It's not really working for me somehow. I tried eating 3 softgels and it worked slightly better. Perhaps it's just me; i'm just hungry all the time.
Good product
Posted by Reviewer1517851 From Texas on Feb 14, 2011
Purchased at iHerb
I only take about 2 a day because I just started a couple of weeks ago. I'm not sure WHEN to start building up my intake, it's not very clear. At first, you will be VERY gassy from the digestive formula... but after a week or so you should be fine. Not sure I want to go up a dose because this is pretty expensive stuff!
ok not great

I am only taking 1 in am and 1 evening. The first few days I was very hungry. But I really have not seen any change as far as amount I eat.
Severe stomach pain
Posted by Reviewer3263537 From New York on Nov 21, 2012
Purchased at iHerb
After taking 2 softgels of PGX I almost immediately experienced a sharp stomach pain. First, I was not sure if the pain was the result of something else or PGX. So, next day I took only 1 softgel and no any other vitamins to insure that the pain was caused by the PGX. Sure enough after an hour or so, I've had very painful stomach symptoms for several hours. It felt like scraping my arm against cement. It did not just hurt right after it happened, it stayed irritated for several hours. I had to take Pepto Bismol to calm the stomach.I should also mention that I am very healthy person and never experienced anything like that. Perhaps people who have sensitive stomach should stay away from purchasing this product.

I've been browsing the forum for a while, but I still cannot find answer to a very basic question: Do I have to select all my drivers at the instalation of OSx86, or can I add drivers later, if part of my hardware is not working?
How do I add drivers later, after I get my OS running?
Some of the posts refer to FAQ, where this basic stuff should be, but I only found Forum FAQ with instructions on posting etc.
I also have some useful information: I managed OSx86 to work on my Toshiba Satellite A300-1N8 .
I tried iDeneb 10.5.5, iPC 10.5.6, iATKOS 10.5.6, but finally the only working one was iDeneb v1.4 10.5.6.
The computer speed is nice, there's just some error message at startup concerning hibernation. Boot time is normal, just shut down seems to take a bit long.
What works:
Ethernet card (I selected RTL1000),
Battery status information
Sound card not working
Graphics only working at 1024 x 768.
On "About this Mac" there's just 1 GHz instead of 2 (I didn't check, whether it really runs at 1 GHz)
USB flash disk does not work, but USB mouse does.
Bluetooth & WiFi not working (does not matter to me at the moment)

B-List and Not Variant Worthy. I've always rather liked Stinkor and he'll always be a prominent hench-man in my eyes.
Variant Worthy
Not Variant Worthy
Let me ask you this question, how much can you tolerate that terrible stench coming from Snake Mountain? Because it's time to rank Stinkor's importance!
This is a multiple choice poll with 2 categories to vote in. The first category is whether or not you would buy a variant of this character. The second category is the overall importance you feel this character brings to the franchise.
Variant worthy?
Variant Worthy: This is a character that you believe is variant worthy. You're willing to purchase different variants of this character even if your favorite version is the first one released. Matty can certainly put them in MOTUC's quarterly variant slot for you.
Not Variant Worthy: You don't feel this character needs any variants whatsoever. You only hope that when they make this character that they get them right the first time around. You do not want to be taken for the ass.
A-List: Integral to the story and the franchise. MOTU isn't MOTU without them. This is a core character that is extremely important to you. If Mattel doesn't make them, someone will have some serious explaining to do!
B-List: They might not be integral to the story in your eyes but this is an excellent supportive character that helps to round out the story, franchise and your collection.
C-List: You feel this is a good guest star type of character. You don't expect to see them hanging around the supportive crew all the time but you still want to see them show up to lend a helping hand now and then.
D-List: Fills the role of background character and cameo maker for you. You acknowledge their existence but in a very limited way. This is an "okay" character.
Z-List: You'd rather forget about this character entirely. Should they never be mentioned again in MOTU-lore, you would be quite happy. This character would kill teh lien for you.
Proud supporter of the Snake Men.
Most Wanted: Slave Girl, Eldor, Spinnerella, Mermista, Peekablue, Crita, Lizorr, Tyrantisaurus Rex, Battle Ram, Great Black Wizard.
Most Wanted for Filmation Sub: Madame Razz with Broom, Lord Masque, Ileena, Granita, General Sunder.
No Slave Girl? Watch us hurl!
A barbaric world without slave girls? That's truly barbaric!
B-List and Not Variant Worthy. I've always rather liked Stinkor and he'll always be a prominent hench-man in my eyes.
Most Wanted MOTU Classics:
*MotU ~ Multi-Bot/Tung Lashor *PoP ~ Angella/Mermista *200X ~ Roboto/Calix *Filmation ~ Teela Na/Lord Masque
*Play-Sets ~ Snake Mountain/Fright Zone *Vehicles ~ Roton/Land Shark *Beasts ~ Night Stalker/Stridor
I say B-List, but Variant worthy. I like stinkor pretty well. I love the Classics figure too.
I have fond memories of my Stinkor figure but he's a B-List villain and not variant worthy.
"Wheresoever on earth he dwells, man is prey to two weaknesses: the need to pray and the need to love."-Marquis de Sade
"It is not by reasoning or by our understanding that we have received our religion; it is by external authority and command."-Michel De Montaigne
Heretical Vintage Purist and Non-Fan Extraordinaire!
He's pretty stinking important! B-O is my vote, I mean B list.
He's in my personal A list because I loved him as a kid. Realistically, more like B-list outside my little world
By the ancients!!!
Lich Leech feedback thread
B-List, I say. He's a personal favorite and I adore his stench. I went with Variant Worthy because I NEED an Odiphus in my MOTUC collection!!!!!!!!!!!
Not to sound like a creepy cheerleader for Uki, but it's nice to know there is at least one person on this forum who is extremely positive & friendly all the time. I don't think I could be that nice even if you paid me. If we ever give out awards for "forum member of the month", Uki gets my vote. -Mr. Shokoti
Way to Go Club Etheria!
My opinion....B list. Stinkor is one of my favs, but I still consider the group of Evil Lyn, Mer Man, Beast Man, Trap jaw and Tri-Klops to be Skeletor's core group. Stinkor, Clawful, Webstor and Whiplash bring in the "second team" so to speak.
Although I loved him as a child and he was a fun figure to have, to me, the definition of "C-List" describes him perfectly.
1974, 1975, 1978, 1979, 2005, 2008
Meh, C list and definitely not variant worthy.
B-list. Not variant worthy. Love Stinkor. He's a great figure.
Definitely A-list. Not as important as Skeletor or He-Man but pretty close.
c-list. he is not a character you see all the time.
Wish List: Eldor, Skeleton Warriors, King Argho, Horde Wraiths, Kobolds, Prahvus, Lord Masque, Rock Monster, Gen. Tartaran, Evil Seed, Carnivorous Plant, Lizard-Man, Hawke, Crimson Fury, Melaktha, Spinwit, Ra-Jarr, Kelclar, King Miro, Dare, Missile-Toe, Sh'gora, Vizar, Harpy, ABC Giants, Lodar, Dragoon, Darius, Negator, Masks of Power Demons, Slob-Boar, Bubblor, Three-Beast, Nocturna
It was between 'B' and 'C' for me and I voted 'B'.
Not variant worthy unless an Odiphus pack-in counts as a variant.
no variant B-Lister....a solid B
MOTUC Needs: Fisto, Whiplash, Roboto, Wind Raider, Shadow Weaver, Spikor, King Randor, Sorceress, TOD Sorceress, Palace Guards, SLL, Mighty Spector, Batros, Netossa, Icer, Foe Men, Octavia, Frosta, Griffin, Granamyr, Shadowbeast, Horde Prime, Jitsu, Rokkon/Stonedar, Jet Sled, Goddess, Wundar, Strong-Or, Strobo, Standor, Shokotti, Castle Grayskull, Evil Lynn, Dekker, Horde Prime, Pre-ternia He-man

Many are still trying to come to grips with the latest Hollywood break-up.
Hilary Duff and Mike Comrie are really over?!?
It's sad, but it's true... and it's not an isolated separation. Over the years, a number of seemingly perfect marriages have come to an end, some in scandalous fashion (we still haven't forgiven you, Jesse James) and others in a relatively amicable manner.
They cover the world of acting, music and even politics. Remember how you felt when Kim Kardashian filed for divorce from Kris Humphries? These splits elicited the exact opposite feeling.
Relive the 9 most unexpected Hollywood divorces in recent memory now:
1. Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony
Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony have twins together and also had a great life together. But then it all fell apart.
2. Jennie Garth and Peter Facinelli
Jennie Garth and Peter Facinelli could not make their marriage work. They split in 2013.
3. Heidi Klum and Seal
We never thought Heidi Klum and Seal would split. But they shockingly proved us wrong.
4. Eva Longoria and Tony Parker
Eva Longoria and Tony Parker seemed like a match made in Hollywood heaven. But it didn't turn out that way.
5. Christina Aguilera and Jordan Bratman
Christina Aguilera and Jordan Bratman looks like a happy couple in this 2009 image. But the marriage didn't last.
6. Courteney Cox and David Arquette
Thy were goofy. They were in love. But then Courteney Cox and David Arquette were over.
7. Jesse James and Sandra Bullock
The marriage between Jesse James and Sandra Bullock didn't merely end. It ended in scandalous, cheating-filled fashion.
8. Al Gore and Tipper Gore
Now this was a divorce we did not see coming. Say it ain't so, Al Gore and Tipper Gore!
9. Charlize Theron and Stuart Townsend
Charlize Theron and Stuart Townsend were married for nine years. But they, shockingly, split in 2010.
10. Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin
Oh wait, sorry, they're not divorcing. They are consciously uncoupling.

What's up College fans!! Welcome to the ugly truth NCAA style! This is my first blog in this great group and I'm going to start off with a bang!! As usual I keep awesome assistants and oh yeah I blog pretty good too!!! So lets get to it............. Since there aren't many attention gettting games this week I will focus on those that do get our attention.
#4 USC @ #10 Oregon - Well here we go again! SC is in a position silence the naysayers or be the blunt of the " I told you so's". Unfortunately for the Trojans, Oregon is not the same team that stunk it up against Boise St. in the opener. Systematically, the Ducks have strung together quality wins and being at home gives them the best chance to upset the Trojans. On the other side of the coin SC has mowed down the competition, let's not let the late garbage points that SC surrendered to Oregon St. fool you, SC is the real deal. However giving up 432 yds. to the Beavers will have to be corrected and knowing Carroll it will. The truth: This is easily the game of the day if not for nothing else but SC's #3 ranking, this will be a true test for both teams. USC 23 - Oregon 20.
#3 Texas @ #13 Oklahoma State - For those Big 12 fans who don't feel that the Texas Longhorns are for real, well here's a Pac 10 fan that agrees with the masses. Texas hasn't looked sharp all year ( The top 4 haven't with the exception of Alabama) I think the Sooners found a way to lose the Red River Rivalry, which this year in the Big 12 was the game of the of year until tomorow. Oklahoma St. had all the tools to handle Texas until Dez Bryant lied about not lying, so now Texas can pin their ears back and come every down. The truth: Texas should control this game after the tylenol wears off for Oklahoma State especially on defense, I don't believe Oklahoma State has a plan b or c after Dez Bryant. Texas 34 - Oklahoma 21.
#1 Florida vs. Georgia - The world's largest cocktail party! Florida has not played like the number one team at all this year. After the refs helped them escape Arkansas, Florida's lack luster performance has been in question. Georgia on the other hand was the nation's biggest flash in the pan. After being ranked riddiculously high after losing Moreno and Stafford to the NFL, they quickly went out in the opener and proved that they didn't belong in the top 25. The truth: The only reason this is a conversation is because it's Georgia- Florida and no more. Florida wins big without the refs lending a helping hand. Florida 38 - Georgia 3.
That's my time today! Unfortunately, everyone else is playing sub par competition. This would be a good weekend to catch up on yard work. Thank you all and thanks to my lovely assistants. See ya!!!!!!!!!!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – Feb. 28, 2013
Promise Arizona kicks off Yuma leg of national pro-immigrant bus tour
CONTACTS: Communications Director James E. Garcia, 602-460-1374, firstname.lastname@example.com; Executive Director Petra Falcon, 520-360-6128, email@example.com
YUMA – Promise Arizona hosts a press conference in Yuma on Thursday, Feb. 28, 10 a.m. at Mision de Guadalupe, 417 15 Ave., Yuma, AZ, as part of the group's four-day statewide bus tour promoting comprehensive immigration reform that keeps families together.
During the four-day bus tour, which kicked off in Phoenix Wednesday morning, activists and immigrant families are visiting the offices of Members of Congress to extend personal invitations to attend a major immigrants' rights rally and revival on Saturday, March 2, 10 a.m. to noon, at First Institutional Baptist Church, 1141 East Jefferson St., Phoenix.
"It's time to end the suffering that immigrant families are facing under our nation's current policy," said Petra Falcon, executive director of Promise Arizona. "The message we want public officials and community leaders to receive is that today's immigration system is outdated, inefficient and harmful to immigrant families, and it's time we replaced it with a system that respects the social and economic contributions of millions of immigrant families."
Community leaders and public officials from across the state have been invited to attend the March 2 event. Falcon said trained Promise Arizona supporters will fan out in area neighborhoods after Saturday's rally to register new voters and boost support for comprehensive immigration reform.
Anyone wanting to attend the rally, which is free and open to the public, or volunteer that day is asked to call 602-910-2527.
"Immigration reform is happening this year because Latino voters turned out in record numbers in November," said Falcon. "We intend to keep reminding our Members of Congress and our state's leadership of that fact every step of the way as the debate over U.S. immigration policy continues."
Promise Arizona volunteers also has been conducting a continuous phone bank this week calling on Sens. John McCain and Jeff Flake of Arizona and other Members of Congress in the state to support immigration reform.
The Arizona bus tour is part of the national "Keeping Families Together Campaign" led by the Fair Immigration Reform Movement. The campaign involves dozens of immigrants' rights groups across the country and was organized to advocate for legislative reforms that reaffirm the sanctity of families and expose the damage being done to immigrant communities by current federal policy.
Promise Arizona has invited 1,000 immigrants and supporters of immigrants' rights to attend the March 2 rally and revival in honor of the estimated 1,000 immigrants who get deported from the United States every day under current immigration policy.
More than 500 immigrant families are taking part in regional bus tours across the country, according to Fair Immigration Reform Movement, and immigrants' rights groups in 19 states, 90 cities, and more than 40 Congressional districts around the country will participate.

After a decade of debunking pseudo-historian David Barton's claims about American history, it's pretty hard for anything that comes out of his pie hole to surprise me, but even I was taken aback by the utter preposterousness of one of his latest claims — that gun accidents just didn't happen in the founding era!
Explaining on the January 14 episode of his WallBuilders LIVE! radio show why some people just don't understand that you need good guys with guns to stop bad guys with guns, Barton said:
"That's what these guys do not see and do not look at. They're just flat scared of guns. And the solution to that is exactly what the founding fathers said and that is you start teaching kids to use guns when they're very young because gun accidents are caused by non-familiarity with guns. Once you're familiar with them, you don't have accidents with them."
He then made the incredible claim that gun accidents just didn't happen in the founding era, saying:
"I have searched and in the founding era I think I've only ever found two gun accidents, and everybody was hauling guns back then. You took your guns to church — you were required by state law in some states to take your guns to church. We didn't have accidents because everyone was familiar with how to use them. It's not being familiar that makes it dangerous."
The next day on Glenn Beck's web-based TV show, Barton made the same claim, after first explaining that the reason people were so familiar with guns back then was that everyone was taught how to use them as part of their education.
BECK: "So, everybody grew up with a gun. And they taught you how to use a gun. It was part of school."
BARTON: "That's right"
Barton then proceeded to pull out a few letters from the founders to prove that using guns was a usual part of education back in the founding era. He first quoted a few lines from a letter written by Thomas Jefferson to his fifteen-year-old nephew in which Jefferson told his nephew to take a two hour break from his studies every day to exercise. The exercise that Jefferson recommended was long walks, and he told his nephew to take his gun with him on his walks. This letter is neither here nor there. It says nothing about teaching the use of guns being part of school. All it says is that Jefferson thought that walking and shooting were good ways to exercise and "relax the mind," and recommended them to his nephew over "games played with the ball, and others of that nature," which he warned were "too violent for the body, and stamp no character on the mind."(1)
Barton, who is certainly familiar with the rules set down by Jefferson when founding the University of Virginia, (since he cherry picked quotes from these rules when concocting his lie about Jefferson establishing theological schools at the university), seems to have forgotten that Jefferson didn't even allow students to keep guns at the university, let alone making them a part of their education. The university rules, written in 1824, stated:
"No student shall, within the precincts of the University, introduce, keep or use any spirituous or vinous liquors, keep or use weapons or arms of any kind, or gunpowder, keep a servant, horse or dog, appear in school with a stick, or any weapon …"(2)
But it's the second letter that Barton read (or paraphrased) on Beck's show that he and Beck flat out lie about. This letter was from John Quincy Adams to his brother Thomas. Adams had left his two oldest sons, George and John, in Massachusetts with an elderly aunt and uncle while serving as foreign minister to Russia, and was becoming concerned about George, whom he was hearing from family members was becoming effeminate, lazy, and a discipline problem. George was getting his academic education in school, but Adams wanted his brother, who also had a son, to step in and take charge of George's extra-curricular activities.
As we'll see in a minute, Barton not only lies about the John Quincy Adams letter that he uses, but even the part of the letter that he selectively quotes actually contradicts his claim that there were no gun accidents in the founding era. But first, watch, or read, what Barton said about this letter:
BARTON: "Now, here's John Quincy Adams. He's overseas, sent there by President James Madison, and he's got three kids being raised by his brother Thomas. They're nine, and they're six, and they're three.
"'This is what he writes back. He says, 'One of the things which I wish to have them taught as soon as possible which no man can teach them better than you is the management of firearms. The accidents which happen among children arise more frequently from their ignorance rather than their misuse of weapons which they know to be dangerous.' He says, 'I want you to take George — the nine-year-old — out with you in your shooting excursions, teach him to use the musket. I want you to teach him the construction of the musket, the necessity of prudence of handling the musket, and I want him also to learn the use of pistols, and exercise him at firing at marks.'
"Now, that's a typical education for a nine-year-old at that time."
BECK: "And that's not for hunting."
BARTON: "That's not for hunting."
BECK: "That's for protection."
BARTON: "That's for protection."
Now, here's the un-Bartonized excerpt from the letter, with the parts carefully omitted by Barton in bold:
"One of the things which I wish to have them taught, and which no man can teach them better than you, is the use and management of firearms. This must undoubtedly be done with great caution, but it is customary among us, particularly when children are under the direction of ladies, to withhold it too much and too long from boys. The accidents which happen among children arose more frequently from their ignorance, than from their misuse of weapons which they know to be dangerous. As you are a sportsman, I beg you occasionally from this time to take George out with you in your shooting excursions, teach him gradually the use of the musket, its construction, and the necessity of prudence in handling it; let him also learn the use of pistols, and exercise him at firing at a mark.
"In general let him have as much relaxation and sport as becomes his age, but let him be encouraged In nothing delicate or effeminate."(3)
See how Barton chopped out the line where Adams said that his brother was a "sportsman" so that he and Beck could do their little "That's not for hunting. That's for protection" shtick? And firing at marks was also a popular pastime among gentlemen of the era, who typically referred to it as an "amusement" or a "diversion." Note also that Barton omitted the sentence where Adams said that his reason for wanting his brother to teach his son to use guns was that it was "customary" to "withhold it too much and too long." Kind of contradicts his and Beck's claim that "everybody grew up with a gun. And they taught you how to use a gun. It was part of school," doesn't it?
But, the biggest contradiction is this: Barton quoted Adams as saying, "The accidents which happen among children arise more frequently from their ignorance rather than their misuse of weapons." But Barton is claiming that there were no gun accidents at the time. Why on earth would Adams be talking about what frequently caused gun accidents if, as Barton claims, there were no gun accidents?
Not to digress too much, but I can't help but mention something else here about the way Barton portrays John Quincy Adams and his son George. In addition to the letter about learning to use guns, Barton loves to bring up the letters that Adams wrote to George instructing him on how to read and study the Bible. But what Barton never mentions is how George turned out. What was the result of the strict regimen of Bible study and manly-man activities that Adams imposed upon his son? Well, George took to drinking and gambling, knocked up a servant girl at the home of a family friend, and eventually committed suicide at the age of twenty-eight. Barton never gets to that part of the story.
Now, back to what Barton said on Beck's show.
After reading from the letters of Jefferson and John Quincy Adams, Barton told his tale about a classroom full of gun-toting elementary school children in the 1850s saving their teacher's life by whipping out their guns to stop a gunman who came to their school — a story that appears to have come not from an actual historical event, but from the Louis L'Amour novel Bendigo Shafter, as I wrote last week in my post "Is David Barton Now Getting His 'History' From Louis L'Amour Novels?" (An update on that post: Barton never answered my email requesting a source for his story.)
At the end of "Bendigo" Barton's gun-toting students story, he makes his 'no gun accidents' claim again:
BECK: "Kids did not shoot each other."
BARTON: "Oh no. No, no, no. Again, two accidents I have seen in two hundred years of everybody having guns. It just didn't happen."
Barton claimed on his radio show to have "searched" and only found two gun accidents in the founding era, but his claim became even more incredible on Beck's show. Now it's two gun accidents in two hundred years!
I really have to wonder just where the eminent historian Barton actually "searched" to only find two gun accidents in two hundred years when I was easily able to find countless reports of gun accidents in just a few minutes with nothing more than a quick search of Newsbank's historical newspapers archive. All it took was simply searching on a few combinations of words that you'd expect to find together in articles about gun accidents.
I found a plethora of articles about hunting accidents and other accidental shootings among adults, but what I primarily want to focus here on the accidents involving children, since Barton's claim is that all children were taught to use guns and that is why there were no gun accidents.
This is a just small sampling of the articles I found, many of which, as you'll see, sound just like the articles you see today — most of them ending with warnings to parents about leaving guns around children or letting children play with guns, and many of them noting that gun accidents were a very frequent occurrence:
From the Pennsylvania Packet, Philadelphia, December 16, 1783:
"We hear from Weymouth, that last week the following melancholy accident happened there: As a number of young men were out a hunting, a musket accidentally went off, by the discharge of which, one person was considerably wounded, and another by the name of Lovell, instantly killed: In which event, a promising youth of about 17, was torn from the enjoyment of his parents and friends, who pungently feel the loss."
From the Vermont Gazette, Bennington, Vermont, September 3, 1787:
"Monday last a daughter of Mr. Ichabod Allen of this town, aged eleven years, was instantly killed with a pistol, by her brother, who is about six years old. The particulars of the unhappy catastrophe, as related by the distressed family, (the parents being absent when the accident happened) are, That the pistol had been loaded, extremely heavy a few evenings before, by a young man of the family, with intent to shoot an owl; that he laid the pistol upon a shelf near the chamber floor, but the little boy finding where the pistol was laid, and having been frequently indulged in snapping and playing with it, found means by setting a chair against the wall and climbing upon the back of it, to get the pistol down, unknown to the family, and went out to play with it as usual. At the time the girl was killed she was sitting in a sleigh box before the door, holding an infant in her arms; the whole charge of the pistol lodged in her body just above the left breast, which put an immediate period to her existence. It is supposed the boy must have been very near her, when the pistol went off, as there was nearly forty shot holes in a space but little bigger than the circumference of a dollar.
"A solemn warning this to all parents and guardians of children not to teach them to use, or even so much as to suffer them to play with such weapons before they arrive to years of discretion."
From the Massachusetts Spy, Worcester, Massachusetts, October 1, 1789:
"At Capeelizabeth, on Saturday the 5th inst., James Mayo, a child of two years old, was shot through the head by his brother, a boy about 12, who was playing with a loaded musket — The jury were of the opinion that the child's death was accidental."
From the Herald of Freedom, Boston, February 2, 1790:
"We learn from Shaftsbury, in Vermont, that a number of small boys were lately hunting there when one of them, named Ebenezer Bottom, was pushing a wad into his gun with his finger at the same time that another boy was priming it, the gun discharged, by which accident Bottom was badly wounded in the hand, and John Welsh, son of Mr. Ebenezer Welsh, of Norwich, was shot in the body and died in a few days after. — This affords a melancholly caution to parents not to trust their children with guns till they have discretion to know how to use them."
From the Litchfield Monitor, Litchfield, Connecticut, August 17, 1791:
"PORTSMOUTH, July 27.
"Saturday last, the following melancholy accident happened in the parish of North-Hampton. — A son of Mr. John Page, about 12 years of age, went into the house of a negro family, in his father's neighbourhood, (the negro man and his wife were absent, and had left three or four children at home, the eldest about 7 years old) and observing a loaded gun in the corner of the room, he immediately took it into his hands, cocked it, and drew it by the muzzle to the door, when by some accident it went off, and discharged its contents of powder, shot, and wadding into his breast and out at his back, which put an immediate period to his existence.
"We hope the above will serve as a caution to parents how they leave implements of destruction in the way of their children."
From the Weekly Register, Norwich, Connecticut, March 13, 1792:
"The following accident happened in this city last Saturday — A loaded musket being left standing in the corner of a room in the house of Mr. Charles Jeffry, jun. a neighouring boy came in and took the musket to the door, where he discharged it; a girl of Mr. Jeffry's about seven years old, at the same instant coming in the door, the charge went through her arm, which took it off."
From the Litchfield Monitor, Litchfield, Connecticut, May 1, 1793:
"Winchester, April 10, 1793:
"On Tuesday the 9th inst. William Case, aged 18, son of Mr. William R. Case, of this town, died of a wound received in his right arm by the accidental discharge of a musket. The Wednesday preceding his death, the deceased, in company with a young man of the neighbourhood, went in pursuit of ducks: On their way to the pond, the unfortunate, being forward of his companion, whose gun unhappily went off, the contents was lodged as above; and notwithstanding every means and effort of the faculty and his friends, he died a few days after the accident. He was a promising youth, much endeared and lamented by his parents, and all his acquaintance. — It is hoped that this accident, among others, will be a lesson of caution to those who either for sport or exercise make use of fire arms."
From the Rising Sun, Keene, New Hampshire, October 6, 1795:
"Last week, at Chesterfield, a young man by the name of Johnson, about 16 years of age, was handling a loaded musket, it accidentally went off and discharged the contents into his throat, which killed him instantly."
From the Philadelphia Gazette, September 12, 1795:
"On Tuesday last, a daughter of Mr. Thomas Davis, formerly of this place, was at a Mr. Strutton of Amherst, near Buffaloe river, and no person being present but children, a little son of Mr. Strutton, took up a loaded rifle, and while handling the piece, unfortunately discharged the ball through the head of Mr. Davis' daughter, at which instant she fell, and lay a considerable time before any grown person arrived. — A lesson to the incautious heads of families."
From the Rural Repository, Leominster, Massachusetts, June 2, 1796:
"ACCIDENT. — In Hopkinton, last week a boy, about 14 years old, was shot by accident, as follows: another boy who was with him, not knowing the gun to be loaded, pointed at his side, and snapping it, the gun being charged, its contents entered one side — medical assistance was called; but, alas! too late — Death had seized him."
From the New-Hampshire Gazette, Portsmouth New Hampshire, May 15, 1798:
"A very unfortunate accident happened in Orford on the 13th of April last. A son of Mr. Platt's and a son of Mr. Hogan's, were accustomed to play with an unloaded musket; it being loaded, unknown to the boys, when the parents were gone out, they took the gun as usual, it went off, and the contents went through the head of the latter, which put an instant period to his existence. — This is a warning to all who own muskets, to keep them secure from children when loaded."
From Greenleaf's New York Journal, New York City, June 10, 1796:
"Last Sunday se'nnight as two lads were playing with a gun, which was very imprudently laft in their way, loaded, at a house in Chatham street, the contents discharged into the bowels of the youngest (about 6 years old) and he expired in a few hours. How many fatal accidents proceed from carelessness."
From the Independent Chronicle, Boston, May 17, 1798:
"On Saturday last at Malden, the following unfortunate event took place: — As Mr. John Hancock, was sitting in a chair after dinner, sportively instructing a young man, who had taken up a gun, which had been charged the day before, in the manual exercise; when Mr. H. directed him to take aim and fir, he received the contents into his head, which instantaneously put an end to his existence, Æt. 37. Let this be a warning to all young people, how they sport with arms, and heedlessly trifle with instruments of death."
From the Farmer's Cabinet, Amherst, New Hampshire, January 3, 1804:
"On Sunday, the 18th inst. Abigail Underwood, a deserving woman, æt. 24, was killed by a discharge of a musket loaded with shot, at the house of Messrs. Wiswall and Moore, paper makers, in Waltham. — A youth came into the room where she was cutting the hair of an acquaintance, took up a gun, and snapped it twice, when it went off, and carried one half of her head with it. — The verdict of the jury — Accidental death. It is much to be lamented that the frequent repetition of similar disasters to the above, does not prevent persons suffering loaded guns to be in dwelling houses."
From the Albany Gazette, Albany, NY, September 17, 1804:
"Melancholy Accident. — On Friday last, Henry Selden, aged 13 years, son of Mr. Joseph D. Selden, of this village, left home for the purpose of hunting pigeons. Not returning in the evening, his parents were much alarmed; but flattered themselves that he had fallen in company with a young man who was also absent, and that they had tarried the night, that they might be on the ground for hunting in the morning. The latter, however, returned at about noon on Saturday, without having seen the former. The people then collected and commenced a search for him. — The had not proceeded far, before he was discovered on the side of a ledge of rocks about half a mile east of the village, and lifeless. From the situation in which he was found, it is presumed that he had discovered some game at the top of the ledge, which is so steep as to be almost inaccessible, and was endeavoring to approach near enough to make a shot. To facilitate his ascent, he had left his shoes a little distance below. His gun was standing several feet above where he was lying, and in an erect position against the side of the ledge; which renders it possible that he first climbed up the rock, and while in the act of drawing his gun after him it went off. The contents entered the side of his head, and must have put an immediate period to his existence.
"Thus has been cut off, in the morning of his days, by one of those accidents to which we are every day liable, a promising youth, the eldest hope of his fond parents! And thus are their expectations blasted in a moment! — Scarce a week passes without bringing us accounts of lives being lost through the careless use of fire-arms. We wish the publication of them might produce the proper effect. But although we have little expectation, still we indulge a hope, that this melancholy event will operate as a warning to parents and others; that it will be productive of caution, and in some measure prevent the occurrence of similar accidents."
From the Weekly Visiter, Kennebunk, Maine, January 6, 1810:
"On Monday the 23rd of October last. Mr. Ira Sweet, being in the house of George Tuttle, of Winchester, who was he neighbor and intimate friend, took a musket in to his hand, which was in the room, and having sat down in a chair, laid the musket across his knees, he then opened the pan, as he says, and seeing no powder therein, imprudently cocked and snapped the piece, which discharged its contents (being loaded with common shot) through the neck and lower part of the head of a sprightly little boy, three years and five months old, the son of Mr. Tuttle, and who sat within a few feet of the muzzle — An instant period was put to his life.
"On the recital of such shocking occurrences, it is the duty of all people to consider the consequences of the common heedless use of fire arms. View the scene which took place in the above case, and similar the too frequent cases of like nature — There were several persons in the house; the mother in an adjoining room, hearing the tremendous roar of a gun in the midst of her family, succeeded by shrieks of those present, exclaimed, "somebody is killed, who is it?" She was answered in a frantic tone, "It is your son." She was met in a cloud of smoke by the agent, with the lifeless boy in his arms; his head hanging down with large streams of blood pouring therefrom. The parental agonies in such cases, will admit of no description or consolation.
"The actor of this tragic scene, tho as free as any man from any evil design, cannot acquit himself from gross imprudence, and must feel agonies, perhaps equally keen with parental, tho' of another kind, and which may not forsake him until his dying day. The relations, neighbors, and intimate connexions of the bereaved, must feel the most poignant grief, and the community at large must sympathize therein, and regret the loss on such occasions. And as fire arms, those instruments of death, are promiscuously in the hands of children, and men, of the imprudent, as well as the prudent, the intemperate as well as others; whoever, after such repeated warnings, presumes to use them in a heedless manner, so as to endanger or take the life of man, would do well to remember that they must be accountable to God the judge of all, and who will suitably punish such outrageous conduct."
Gun accidents among adults were, of course, also frequent. Many were hunting accidents, but a surprising number were the result of grown men doing incredibly stupid things like this:
From the Weekly Oracle, New London, Connecticut, April 29, 1797:
"Philadelphia, April 15.
"On Friday, the 7th inst. a sea-faring man, who had bought an old pistol at Gonaives, arrived at his lodgings near Almond-street, and seeing a man snapping a musket at different persons in a jocular way, bethought himself of his pistol, which, taking from his chest, he primed, and affixed to it a new flint — when, melancholy to relate, after he had snapped at several persons, it went off, and took from society a worthy young man, about 19 years of age, of the name of David Harrington.
"It is to be hoped, this, with the many other instances of a like nature, may prevent the foolish custom of wantonly playing with those dangerous machines."
There were also numerous accidents on militia training days. A good number of these accidents happened during actual training, but many more happened before and after the actual training, and were caused by militiamen playing with their guns and showing off. A frequent cause of these training day accidents was the practice of a group of militiamen going to an officer's house to "give him a gun" or "give him a morning gun," which meant showing up early in the morning to "salute" the officer by waking him up with loud gunfire.
From the Herald of Freedom, Boston, October 23, 1788:
"Portsmouth, (N.H.) October 18.
"We hear from Concord, that on Tuesday last, (it being parade day with one of the company's there) several young men went to the house of one of their officers, to give him a gun, as it is termed. For this purpose, they loaded their pieces very heavy; one of them, a Mr. Scales, put in a very extravagant charge, and upon being cautioned that the gun would burst, he replied, I will venture it. Being arrived at the door, Scales discharged his piece, which immediately burst, the force of which whirled him round opposite to the muzzle of one of his companion's piece, which being discharged in the confusion, the contents were lodged in his body, and wounded him in such a manner as to occasion his dissolution before the close of the day. May his fate serve as a warning to others, how they persevere in a practice which has often proved fatal to the lives of many."
Yeah, Mr. Barton, I know you have your own personal library of over 100,000 old books and documents that you're always bragging about, but maybe you might want to invest in a subscription to Newsbank's old newspaper archive the next time you're gonna "search" for something.

According to a recent survey, seven out of 10 adults say they want to reduce or avoid added sugars. To do so, they're turning to sweeteners that deliver zero or minimal calories. Data from Mintel, a market research group in Chicago, shows that while sales of caloric sweeteners like sugar have been declining in recent years, sales of "diet"-friendly substitutes have skyrocketed, increasing by about 50 percent from 2000 to 2006. And since 66 percent of Americans are overweight and 20.8 million have diabetes, even many health experts are advocating the use of these sugar substitutes.
What is it? Chemically classified as a sugar alcohol, xylitol's chemical structure resembles both sugar and alcohol but isn't a true form of either. Since xylitol is a naturally occurring food compound, it is "Generally Recognized As Safe" (GRAS) by the FDA and, therefore, exempt from the approval process mandatory for artificial substitutes regulated as food additives.
Sweetness factor: Same as sugar
Take note: The body absorbs xylitol but not fully—that's why the sweetener provides 2 calories per serving and also why it causes digestive problems for some people. People trying to control glucose levels shouldn't eat foods containing xylitol with abandon. The American Diabetes Association advises people with diabetes to count half of sugar alcohol grams as carbohydrates. Studies show that xylitol, which is often added to gums and mints, may also help reduce cavities by reducing acid in the mouth. Xylitol is very toxic to dogs.
Our taste test: Tasters rated the sweetness level as "very acceptable" with only a few detecting a mild, yet not unpleasant, aftertaste in hot and cold tea. The sweetness rated well in baked cookies but most described the appearance and texture of the cookies as unappealing and too soft.

White food. It's all I've been eating for the last seven or eight weeks, thanks to a robust dose of morning sickness! I had the type that feels like the worst hangover you've ever had, lasts all day and can only be cured by second and third breakfasts, a constant supply of carbs, and TV marathons.
Writing about my kitchen activity over the last couple of months would have resulted in rather short posts. They would have focussed on four main food groups; meat wrapped in pastry, chips, bread and potatoes. Let's not quibble that chips and potatoes are technically the same thing. Any variation, no matter how small, was important considering vegemite was my main source of vitamins.
The first trimester is now behind me and green food has made a welcome comeback to my plate. My latest challenge is feeding the voracious hunger this kid seems to be fuelling. I regularly find myself in front of an open fridge, willing interesting yet healthy snacks to appear. This week, with a second-trimester kick of energy, I've stocked up with high-protein snacks to keep this baby growing.

Turned off by the traditional color combinations and themes often found in nurseries, Katy Mimari searched for bold prints and unique styling for her new baby's room. Her passion for finding the perfect nursery furnishings and baby necessities lead to the birth of Caden Lane. She started off with six stylish diaper bags and her collection snowballed from there to include whimsical baby bedding, baby blankets, baby accessories and so much more! When you shop Caden Lane, you will be able to find everything you need from colorful nursery decor to unique on-the-go essentials.
