nto its game against Mohawk with its back against the wall in terms of needing a win to keep its playoff hopes alive.
During the game, there was no physical wall, but Mohawk had Calvert's back against the goal line twice in the second half with the game resting on the line.
Each time, though, Calvert responded.
A Derek Herzog punt return for a touchdown proved to be the decisive points, and two goal-line stands helped the Senecas preserve a 14-8 victory over their Midland Athletic League rivals.
"Just the fact that you can't give up a score, that the playoff is on the line on that play," Calvert's Brendan Deats said when asked about the team's mindset when pinned deep. "I believe with that thought, we just came together as a group and we weren't going to let them get in that end zone."
Calvert came out of the locker room holding a 14-8 lead but Mohawk got the first break of the second half. Darby Walton partially blocked a punt for the Warriors, setting Mohawk up on Calvert's 23. On the next play, Gunnar Johnson rushed the ball down to the 1.

From there, Mohawk would only go backwards.
The next three snaps resulted in a 4-yard loss, a holding call and a fumble, with Calvert's Austin Perry came up with to end the threat.
"That was definitely key," Calvert linebacker Dan Kwiat said. "We came together. We knew what we had to do. We knew we couldn't afford another score on their part. We knew we had to stop them. We definitely came together, especially on the short yardage."
After holding Calvert to a three-and-out, Mohawk again got the ball in good field position and again drove inside the Seneca five. But once again Calvert's defense rose to the occasion, stopping Mohawk on a fourth-and-1 from the 4.
"I kept apologizing for the offense, we couldn't get them out of that hole down there," Fox said. "The one thing about these guys, a lot of these guys have been defensive starters for a long time. They're pretty experienced and they're ready to defend. That's where we've grown this season mentally, that they didn't panic. They just played their game and did a great job.
"We had the ball two or three times inside the five it seemed like, and can't get traction," Mohawk coach Erik Baker said. "Whether it's a bizarre call, or we bounce when we should be cutting. We still got some growing up to do."
The Warriors had one final chance to tie or take the lead late in the fourth quarter, after recovering a Calvert fumble deep in Mohawk territory. A Drew Loose-to-Johnson pass got the Warriors onto Calvert's end of the field, but Loose's next pass was picked off by Nick Warnement to wrap up a Calvert win.
Constant rain all day Friday turned Warrior Field into a mud pit and played havoc on the passing game for both teams. Baker said that played a part on the final interception.
"Obviously the weather impacted both sides as far as trying to do anything in the passing game," he said. "It was trying to throw a snotball. Drew's interception at the end, he just couldn't grip the ball; he was throwing mud."
With the conditions not being conducive to any kind of aerial attack, both teams stuck to the ground game, taking turns running through the mud. After all was said and done, Kwiat had two words of advice for whomever has the job of washing the uniforms: "Good luck."
Back when the jerseys were clean, Calvert took the opening kickoff and stuck to the ground game marching all the way to the Mohawk 4. However, Calvert coughed up the ball on a fourth-and-1 play to give Mohawk its first shot with the ball.
Fifteen plays later, 14 of them being rushes, Mohawk scored the game's first points on a Logan Stillberger 16-yard run. Loose hit Stillberger on the 2-point conversion pass for a 8-0 Warrior lead.
Calvert answered with a 13-play drive of its own. Kwiat powered into the end zone from 10 yards out to give Calvert its first points. Michael Smith booted through the extra point, keeping Mohawk ahead 8-7.
"It was definitely the quagmire we ended up playing in that slowed down the offenses on both sides of the ball," Fox said. "You were kind of limited to what you could do; you couldn't throw. It was a good hard-hitting football game.
"I knew it was going to be power football vs. power football."
Calvert's defense turned up the pressure on Mohawk's next series. The Senecas forced the Warriors into a three-and-out, highlighted by the first of two sacks by Deats, coming around the end to get to Loose from the blind side.
"Their definitely big plays for the defense," Deats said of the several sacks Calvert's defense came up with. "It puts them in a bind. They're four yards back from where they started the previous play and it's a loss of down. Of course anybody's going to be excited to get one."
The ensuing punt turned out to be the difference in the game. Herzog fielded it on a bounce, broke a couple tackles and ran 69 yards to the end zone.
"I saw once it bounced, I knew I needed to get it," Herzog said. "I saw that I had a hole, so I picked it up and went with it. I just give all the credit to the blocking because the holes were there and I just got through the holes."
"We played as good of a football game as we played all year, especially defensively. Three shots to make the tackle on a punt return and that was the difference in the game," Baker said.
The win keeps Calvert's hopes of a second-straight playoff trip alive. The Senecas now aim to take the momentum from this win into next week's game with Hopewell-Loudon.
"It was definitely a must win," Herzog said. "We needed this to maintain our playoff spot. We're going to keep winning and keep going ahead to get that playoff spot."

Why we're wary of high futures prices
Why we're wary of high futures prices
Do you watch daily Class III milk futures prices at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange? We do. While it's exciting to see rosier financial prospects for the industry in 2011, we're skeptical . . . and wary. There are a few reasons why:
First are the prices themselves. At Tuesday's close, the Class III average for 2011 was $15.71; every month beginning in February was over $15, and every month beginning in June was over $16. Just before Thanksgiving, prices averaged only $14.41. Frankly, a jump of $1.30 seems like a huge move without something bad happening on the supply side of things – and if something bad did happen then we didn't hear about it.
Second, $15.71 would be the third highest Class III price average in history. Third, a year with prices over $15 for 11 months in a row has only happened once before. Given the ultra-volatility dairy producers have seen in prices the last decade – from a despairing low of $8.57 to a dizzying high of $21.38 – we wonder if that much stability is too good to be true.
Admittedly, part of our concern comes from worrying that feed costs may turn out to be so high – especially for producers who don't grow their own feed – that even a $15.71 Class III average wouldn't be enough to make a profit. With $90+ oil and $6+ corn, high feed prices are a certainty, and our suspicion is that milk production costs will be in the $16 range this year.
Traders at the CME obviously believe that demand for milk will be strong this year, and we hope they're right. The U.S. is coming off its biggest dairy products export year in history in 2010 and economies around the world are supposedly recovering even faster than ours is. Hopefully, both will continue and keep demand ahead of supply.

CRESSON - A 19-year-old Mount Aloysius student was removed from campus after threatening a professor via Twitter.
Police said Anthony Will Briscoe, 19, of Aultman, Indiana County, threatened to slit the throat of one of his professors in front of her class. Briscoe made the threat via his publicly viewable account on Twitter.
Briscoe told officers the tweet was a joke and posted for "entertainment" purposes, police said.
Shortly before 8 a.m. on Feb. 12, Briscoe wrote "[name redacted] DO NOT GET [expletive] WITH ME OR I WILL SLIT YOUR THROAT IN FRONT OF THE CLASS," police said.
That tweet has since been deleted from his account's public timeline.
Briscoe was expelled from Mount Aloysius after the incident, police said.
"The College has zero tolerance for threats whether made electronically or otherwise," said Jack Coyle, Mount Aloysius director of communications, in an email to the Mirror. "We feel that removing this individual from campus was the appropriate measure."
About 21 hours after the tweet was posted, officers from Cresson Township, Cresson Borough and Mount Aloysius security contacted Briscoe and searched his dorm room for weapons, police said.
Briscoe was present but not under arrest during the search. No weapons were discovered, police said.
Following an interview with police and a school counselor, college officials expelled Briscoe from campus, police said.
During the interview, Briscoe said he was "bored" while sitting in the professor's class when he decided to send the tweet, police said.
Briscoe told officers he sometimes writes similar tweets for "entertainment" purposes and that other students find them amusing.
The professor referenced in the initial tweet told officers she was "fearful and concerned for her safety" and decided to press charges against her former student.
Briscoe was charged Feb. 20 with making terroristic threats, harassment and disorderly conduct.
His preliminary hearing is scheduled for April 11 before Magisterial District Judge Charity L. Nileski.

The CMV serology test determines the presence of antibodies to a virus called cytomegalovirus (CMV) in the blood.
CMV antibody tests
A blood sample is needed. For information on how this is done, see: Venipuncture
Serology studies the fluid portion of blood (serum) for its antibody content. Serology tests are often repeated a few weeks after the first sample. There are several serology techniques that can be used, depending on the suspected antibodies.
There is no special preparation for the test.
When the needle is inserted to draw blood, some people feel moderate pain, while others feel only a prick or stinging sensation. Afterward, there may be some throbbing.
The test is performed to detect current active CMV infection, or past CMV infection in people who are at risk for reactivation of infection (such as organ transplant recipients and people with a suppressed immune system). The test may also be performed to detect CMV infection in newborns.
People who have never been infected with CMV have no detectable antibodies to CMV.
Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Some labs use different measurements or test different samples. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results.
The presence of antibodies to CMV indicates a current or past infection with CMV. If the number of antibodies (called the antibody titer) rises over a few weeks, it may mean that you have a current or recent infection.
Chronic CMV infection (in which the antibody count stays about the same over time) can reactivate in a person with a suppressed immune system.
Veins and arteries vary in size from one patient to another and from one side of the body to the other. Obtaining a blood sample from some people may be more difficult than from others.
Other risks associated with having blood drawn are slight but may include:
To detect a blood or organ infection with CMV, the health care provider can test for the presence of CMV itself in the blood or a specific organ.

The hype, the emotion and the hoopla are over. Now the Stetson football team has to get down to the business of playing football.
Two years of planning, practice and anticipation went into the Hatters' 31-3 season-opening victory over Warner last weekend, but Stetson had just five days to get set for their first road game.
Stetson will travel down Interstate 95 on Saturday for a 7 p.m. game against Florida Tech at a sold out Pirate Stadium in Melbourne. It will be the first game for the Panthers, who have traveled the same road the Hatters went down.
Stetson fans will be able to listen to the game on the radio at WSBB AM 1230 and WTJV AM 1490 in Volusia County and on WRSO AM 810 in Orlando. The game will also be video streamed online live through the Florida Tech website, FloridaTechSports.com.
Since the very first day the Hatters arrived on campus in August 2012, the team has had to overcome obstacles. Preparing for the game against Florida Tech has been no different. Because of the weather delay that forced the opener to be completed on Sunday afternoon, the Hatters lost their planned off day on Monday. Instead the team will take Friday off before making the drive down the coast on Saturday afternoon.
Hatters coach Roger Hughes said the change in plans is just another thing for the team to work through. He and the coaching staff tried to send that message during preparation for the game.
"One of the things is that we wanted to be really hard on them this week," Hughes said. "While we want them to play with confidence, we don't want them to be cocky. We don't want them to just expect good things to happen. We have had a tough week with losing a day.
"They haven't had a day off yet this week, so they are a little sluggish. Practice on Wednesday was not very good. We are giving them the day off on Friday to give them about 72 hours to get their legs under them and get their minds cleared a little bit."
While he was pleasantly surprised by the results last weekend, Hughes said there are still plenty of areas where the Hatters can improve.
"The hope is that we can eliminate a lot of the mistakes that we had in the first game," Hughes said. "We had too many offsides penalties, some turnovers, and that kind of stuff. We are going ones-on-ones all week just to simulate the speed because we think this team will be a lot better, much faster and certainly bigger and stronger than the team we played last week. We are trying to get them ready for that."
Florida Tech is starting its program as a member of the rugged Division II Gulf South Conference. Unlike the Hatters, the Panthers do have up to 36 full athletics scholarships available for players on their team. Stetson plays in the non-scholarship Pioneer Football League.
For the Stetson coaches, the scholarships available at Florida Tech are the least of their concerns. For a second straight week the Hatters will go into a game with no film and little information about the team they will be squaring off with.
"We are having to assimilate all different kinds of lines and fronts to try to anticipate what they will do," Hughes said. "What I am trying to do is keep a handle on how much we are trying to game-plan for. It is going to be about execution, not about out-scheming them. We've tried to prepare our kids for the fact that we won't know what they are doing for the first couple of series. We will have to prepare to make adjustments. The nice thing is, we have been through this."
The Hatters' opening game win was marked by solid play from quarterback Ryan Tentler, kicker James LaGamma and a stingy Stetson defense, led by Donald Payne, who plays a hybrid safety/linebacker position for the Hatters known as the "Dawg" position.
Both LaGamma and Payne were recognized as Players of the Week by the PFL while Payne went a step further by earning national FCS Freshman of the Week honors from The Sports Network.
While the offense was efficient, producing 345 yards of total offense with just one turnover, it was the defensive and special teams effort that set the tone for the game. The Hatters allowed just 193 total yards on defense, scored a touchdown, had two interceptions and three sacks. Special teams also added a touchdown and scored 13 points while winning the field position battle.
"We have to clean up the penalties and we don't ever want to turn the ball over," Hughes said. "There were miscues on offense and I wish we had played a little better in the second half. But, by the time the defense and special teams had increased the lead, we were in grind mode and wanted to get the game over with. We have to execute better but, overall, considering it was the first game for this program and with the youth of this team, I thought it went pretty well."
Hughes said the performance of the defense was the biggest surprise to him.
"I didn't expect to be able to dominate defensively like we did," Hughes said. "While I thought we had some good playmakers, I was surprised by the overall play. I was not surprised that Donald Payne played well, but even he was a little bit of surprise against, what I thought was a physically superior team. He dominated a lot of the time."
Payne finished with eight total tackles, including a sack and three tackles for loss to go with his fumble recovery for a touchdown on the first play following the resumption of play on Sunday. Linebacker Dave Lazear (eight tackles) and defensively lineman Davion Belk (five tackles, two for loss including a sack) were also major contributors. Chris Atkins and Bobby Jakubek both turned in interceptions to end Warner drives.
The key defensive stand in the game, according to Hughes, came on the very first series. It was the only Warner drive that produced points.
"I thought we drew a line in the sand on that first drive," Hughes said. "They had a first and 10 at our 18 and we stopped them right there for a field goal. I thought that was a big emotional lift for our team. We were able to respond with a field goal of our own to make it even. It was like we both exchanged punches, then we had to settle in to see who wanted to win it."
The defense got a boost from the special teams which gave Warner bad starting field position all day in addition to scoring a touchdown on a fake field goal and blocking a punt.
"The one area I was really pleased with was our special teams," Hughes said. "I thought our special teams played very well. They got us a score and gave us great field position. I was really pleased with James LaGamma's punting, and Eric Fogle as well, because they made sure they had a long field all the time. It was gratifying to see all of the work we put in, especially on special teams, pay off."
LaGamma pinned three punts inside the Warner 20 in the game, took an option from Nick LaSala to score a touchdown on a fake field goal hit one of his two field goal attempts. Keegan Tanner was able to get a hand on one of Warner's nine punts, limiting the effort to just 17 yards.
Offensively, Tentler threw for 169 yards, hitting 17-of-24 pass attempts with a pair of touchdown passes to Rob Coggin. He also led the Hatters with 62 yards rushing on seven carries.
Hughes said he would like to see better production from the running backs. Six running backs had carries in the game, combining for 93 yards on 33 carries. Darius Chapes and Jerami Singleton led the way, both rushing for 30 yards on eight carries.
"We need more consistency in the offensive line and we need to be able to run the ball more effectively," Hughes said. "At times we ran the ball well, but you would rather not have your quarterback taking that many shots. We have to do a better job up front. I thought our protections were ok, but we have to solidify our edge so that Ryan is not having to run around, even though he is pretty good when he is doing that."
For the Hatters to duplicate their success on Saturday night, they'll have to find a way to generate emotion on another teams' home field.
"I don't think you can recapture the emotion, but you also don't want to have that emotional letdown," Hughes said. "Frankly, our fans were like the 12th man in that game and that really motivated us to do well. I don't think we can ever recapture that because it was just a special weekend, but we need to find a way to play with emotion and play with passion this Saturday.
"They have to understand that we are going into someone else's house. There are going to be times where it will feel like we are playing against 15, but that doesn't matter. You can't let that affect you. Do your job, don't let them get into your dome and make sure you execute the techniques and fundamentals you have been taught."

A man called police because his daughter got nipped on the back of her leg by a neighbor's dog.
But the circumstances in which this happened may not have warranted an actual police response. As the father explained to the officer what happened, they quickly learned that the man;s daughter was going door to door selling fund-raising stuff for school. She entered the neighbor's yard with out permission and without a permit to solicit.
The dogs were securely behind their invisible fence, and most likely were being frisky or protecting their property.
According to the report, when the police responded to speak with the father, the dogs sat calmly in their yard and never even paid attention to their presence despite the fact that they were in close proximity to the property.
The father refused medical treatment for the small nip. The neighbor apologized for his dogs and the neighbor showed where his dogs were current on their vaccinations.

Pain Management Health Center
FDA Panel Wants More Restrictions on Hydrocodone
Jan. 28, 2013 -- It may become more difficult to get prescriptions for drugs containing hydrocodone combined with other pain relievers.
An FDA panel voted 17 to 10 in favor of reclassifying hydrocodone-containing compounds, such as Vicodin, from Schedule III drugs under the Controlled Substances Act to Schedule II, which means it would be considered to have an even greater potential for abuse.
The drug is also found in prescription drugs Norco and Lortab.
The panel heard testimony for and against the move over two days. Those in favor emphasized hydrocodone's potential for addiction and abuse, and those against warned that millions of legitimate pain patients would suffer if it becomes more difficult to obtain.
The vote sends a strong message to doctors and the public about the abuse potential of hydrocodone combination products, many on the panel felt. Several said that death rates from hydrocodone-combination-drug overdoses have tripled over the last two decades
"Clearly the data shows the magnitude of the epidemic of misuse, abuse, and diversion of prescription narcotics," said Elaine Morrato, DrPH, from the University of Colorado School of Public Health. Morrato voted for the measure.
She said she was hopeful that "appropriate remedies" would be put in place should the changes take place, "so that those who are disadvantaged, such as those who are in rural settings or who may have access problems, aren't disproportionately affected by the change."

The MINI of Charleston Racing team recently concluded the 2012 Grand AM/Total Performance Showcase racing series with an excellent showing at the final race at Lime Rock Park in Lakeville, Conn.
Lime Rock is famous for being one of the shortest road race courses in America, at only 1.5 miles in length and nine turns, but it has extreme elevation changes and for the B Spec cars is almost flat out all the way around the track, averaging just below 83mph.
The first round of qualifying found the MINI of Charleston team on the pole with Johan Schwartz of Charlotte, N.C. faster by better than 1.5 seconds to the second qualifier. Schwartzs first drive ever in a B Spec MINI was extremely impressive, carrying the Sawaya Segalas/Endurance Karting/Instrument Mart 2008 MINI Cooper thought a pouring rain and never setting a wheel off track.
Summervilles Robbie Davis had a business commitment and was unable to make the first qualifying session and would have to wait until Saturday morning to make his first ever laps at Lime Rock.
Saturday morning qualifying found the track dry and right for Schwartz to again set the sessions fastest lap.
Halfway through the 20-minute session, Davis figured out how to move his MINI into the second starting position. Saturday afternoons race was set with a MINI of Charleston front row.
On the start, Schwartz took the lead and moved out of trouble as Davis was hit in the rear by Todd Buras Ford Fiesta in turn two. Davis spun off the track and slid back into traffic, contacting fellow MINI driver Ed Magner. Both cars continued, but were a long way behind the leaders.
Up front a tight battle raged and Schwartz ended up placing second, only 0.143 seconds behind the leader.
Meanwhile, Davis climbed through the field to place fifth, his first race of the season not on the podium.
The race capped a solid year for the Mini of Charleston team, which saw Davis earn two victories in the series and members of the team claim three second-place finishes and two third-place finishes.
What a great starting season to what is going to be the tightest, most competitive class anywhere, said team manager Brad Davis. MINI of Charleston wants to thank MINI USA, Grand AM and the SCCA for helping get this great class off the ground in 2012 and look for great numbers of cars competing in 2013.

How to Save Money Every Month with Negotiation
Trying to find a way to save money every month is a lot like playing Whack a Mole. In April you might save some money by brown bagging your lunch to work. In May you might try some hypermiling driving tips, like easing up on the brakes or driving closer to the speed limit. By June, you'll probably have stopped brown bagging lunch as often but you'll try going out to bars less after work. It's hard keeping everything straight, especially if you haven't made it a habit.
That's why the key to saving money every month is to reduce your overall "financial load." That is, cut or reduce your fixed monthly expenses.

Which was largely done on a roster he inherited & a hot goalie that he got really lucky on. They missed the playoffs last year by 8 points & he's on the outside looking in again so far this season. So looks like he's gonna be 1 for 3 in playoff appearances? Sorry, I for one don't buy into the whole "Stevie is the front office messiah" thing at all. Anyway there are two internal candidates, Jim Nill & Ryan Martin, that should be ahead of him in that line for Kenny's job if he decides to hang it up in the next couple to few years.
I'm with you lock step on this one. I have no idea why anyone thinks Yzerman should be our GM. Oh wait, yes I do.

Priority Internal Job Postings
Purpose: Valdosta State University is committed to providing opportunities for incumbent staff members. One way the Department of Human Resources and Employee Development provides assistance with career advancement is by incorporating procedures to allow current VSU employees an opportunity to be referred to job vacancies before the position is opened for recruiting to the general public. The following policy and procedure statements address the manner in which this process can be accomplished.
Policy: All open positions must be posted for a minimum of five days, however the employing unit may initially designate that a position be posted with an employee priority designation to be posted on the employment web site.
Positions designated for employee priority posting will be posted for a minimum of five business days on the employment web site and only applications from current qualified VSU employees will be referred to that position.
If the employing unit identifies a successful candidate from this pool, no additional recruiting is required. If after five business days no VSU applicant has been selected, the position will be reopened and again posted for recruiting on the employment web site for a minimum of five additional business days. VSU employees may still apply during this open period.
Those employees classified as temporary workers do not qualify for priority positions. As in the past, they may apply for any other position.
Notice to Applicants for Priority Internal Posting Employment:
- Those having been convicted of a criminal drug offense shall be disqualified for a period for not less than two years from date of conviction.
- Multiple criminal drug offenses shall disqualify a candidate for not less than five years from date of most recent conviction.
- Those convicted of a felony
- Those convicted of a crime involving moral turpitude are disqualified unless a pardon has been granted.
All offers of employment are thereby conditioned upon the results of a Background Investigation Report which includes a criminal background check and a credit check where applicable, as well as other checks as needed.

Heres another pair of replies I received this week:

Heres the response I sent to Mr. Slager:

State Legislation Resources
The state of Tennessee makes it easy to search for legislation up for consideration concerning firearms. This then makes it easy to send letters to your state officials supporting or opposing specific pieces of legislation up for consideration. I sent 7 this evening.
I found the above by browsing the categories of legislation here - http://wapp.capitol.tn.gov/apps/subj...x/default.aspx
It would be good if we had this sort of information on each state so everyone would be able to look at and voice their opinion of legislation affecting RKBA.

Please Read The Forum Rules
TheHighRoad exists to provide a higher grade of discussion than is found on some other gun forums so antis and undecideds can see that gun owners and RKBA advocates are not the reckless misanthropes they tell everyone we are. Personal attacks, group stereotyping, macho chest-thumping, and partisan hackery are low road and hurt all of us.

Received a response from Congressman Ruben Hinojosa, Congressional District 15, Texas:
"It is my belief that a number of President Obama's recent proposals on gun safety are reasonable and common sense safety reforms that are long overdue. I have long supported reinstating the assault weapons ban, and limiting high capacity magazines........Some say that Presidents Obama's proposals are a violation of the second amendment. That is simply false. Like many of our constitutional rights, they are not limitless. Conservative Justice Antonin Scalia put it best in the Supreme Court case District of Coumbia v. Heller opinion, which upheld our constitutional right to bear arms: "Like most rights, the Second Amendment is not unlimited. It is not a right to keep and carry any weapon whatsoever in any manner whatsoever and for whatever purpose:......"

U.S Congressman from Texas Ted Poe's e-Newsletter:
Received this today, he is a very strong supporter of the 2nd Amendment.
"Dear Neighbor,
The nation continues to grieve with the community of Newtown, Connecticut over the attack that stole the lives of dozens of innocent children and teachers. What happened was unconscionable evil that most of us will never understand. Since then, some elites in Washington have used the Newtown tragedy for political leverage to reignite the gun control debate.
Since the beginning of the year, we have seen a number of extreme proposals from the Senate and 23 executive edicts from the President. Not one of these proposals would have changed the outcome of the tragedy in Newtown. What they will do is redline the Constitution and bruise our right to bear arms which is guaranteed by the 2nd Amendment.
Make no mistake--these proposals advocate for more government control not more gun control. I believe in the sanctity of the Constitution. The Bills Of Rights were designed to protect citizens from an oppressive government. This timeless document has guaranteed freedom for Americans for over 200 years; it is certainly not up for negotiation now.
Those who believe that more gun control will end violence should examine the evidence. Mexico, for example, has outlawed guns completely, but there has not been a decline in gun-related deaths. Chicago and Washington, DC have some of the toughest gun laws in America, but they are also two of the most dangerous cities in America. So, what now? The focus of any discussion or action should not be on the gun, but on the shooter. In my previous life as a judge and prosecutor in the Harris County courtrooms, I never saw a gun tried for a crime. That's because we hold the shooter accountable, not an inanimate object.
And, yet here in Congress, we have legislators advocating for more restrictions on guns while they have the protection of armed guards at every door in the Capitol – hypocrisy at its highest.
I am a staunch supporter of the Second Amendment, and I will continue to defend our constitutional right. More laws amount to more control - not more effectiveness. And more laws mean less liberty. And that's just the way it is.
God and Texas,
Ted Poe
Member of Congress

I received the form letter response from Levin that I'm sure has been posted already, if I don't find it I will post it up later. The more I thought about it the more it irked me so I decided to respond to him, copying the other Senator and my Representative (who actually gets it). I probably went too far but he needs to be called out for his not upholding his oath to defend the constitution.

This is the reply that I recieved from Minnesota State Senator Bill Weber.
(He grew up less than a mile from me, and his older brother hunted together when we were kids.)
First of all, thank you for your service to our great country!
I share your concerns on 2nd Amendment rights. I think it is possible that the federal government will overreach, and I have no doubt that the President will use executive order if he thinks he can get away with it. On the other hand, they will fail to evaluate the trash we see in movies, on TV and in video games claiming protection under 1st Amendment rights.
At the state level, we have a governor who is not on our side of this issue. I believe the Republican Caucus will need to reach out to the rural DFL members to hopefully prevent any state assault on gun rights. If we can achieve a status quo on this issue with the current political structure, it will be a victory within itself.
Thank you for taking the time to contact me. We will keep an eye on this issue and if we need to activate you as concerned citizens, we will alert you to those needs.
Yours Truly,

The reply from one of our U.S. Senators
Dear Mr. Lynch:
Thank you for sharing your thoughts on guns. I appreciate having the benefit of your comments on this important and timely issue.
As the former chief prosecutor of Minnesota's largest county, I worked to enforce the gun laws already on the books and have long supported efforts to promote gun safety, including background checks. I also believe the Second Amendment gives American citizens the right to own guns for collection, protection, and sport. This right is an important part of our shared history and heritage, and should be protected.
As a member of the Judiciary Committee, I look forward to hearings on the President's recommendations and proposed public safety solutions that include school safety, addressing mental illness, limits on high-capacity magazines and assault weapons, and other efforts to combat violence.
Again, thank you for taking the time to contact me. One of the most important parts of my job is listening to what the people of Minnesota have to say to me. I am here in our nation's capital to do the public's business and to serve the people of our state. I hope you will contact me again about matters of concern to you.

Response from Jim Matheson Congessman
Thank you for sharing your thoughts regarding firearms issues. I appreciate hearing about your interest in the issues facing our country and state, and I am glad for the opportunity to respond to your inquiry.
The Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution establishes the right to bear arms, which more commonly means owning or possessing a firearm. Our Founding Fathers recognized this right when they included it as one of the original 10 Amendments, or Bill of Rights, to the Constitution. The ability to purchase and own firearms can be traced to the founding and defense of our nation, and I believe in the continued importance of the Second Amendment today. I feel strongly that the vast majority of gun owners in Utah and across the country understand the serious responsibilities associated with gun ownership, and they possess and use firearms legally.
Across our country, we have all been shocked and saddened by recent tragedies involving gun violence perpetrated by disturbed individuals. As a result there has been a great deal of discussion in the public policy world about possible steps to prevent tragic acts of violence. I believe responsible individuals have a constitutional right to own firearms, and that this right should not be limited. However, even the staunchest defenders of Second Amendment rights are deeply troubled by acts of senseless and brutal violence. It is here that we need to start, as a country, a broad discussion about how to reduce acts of violence in our society. Each of us should have the expectation of safety in our daily lives.
There are three general topics that should be considered in this discussion. First, we should examine our existing gun laws to determine their effectiveness as they are currently being enforced. Second, we should address the current mental health system in our country and evaluate options to make improvements. Third, we should examine the culture of violence in todays society and seek out ideas to counteract that culture.
As we attempt to find common ground on efforts to reduce violence in our country, we should keep in mind the importance of seeking pragmatic, bipartisan solutions. Any meaningful proposals should be based on facts and with data demonstrating how they will reduce incidents of violence. For example, the so-called Assault Weapons Ban was in place for ten years before it expired in 2004, and the consensus of dozens of studies of that law demonstrate that the law had no real effect on reducing acts of gun violence in our country. The discussion should be deliberative and not reactionary, broad based and not simplistic, and formed through consensus of a wide range of interests and not from a small group of people.
Again, thank you for sharing your concerns with me. If you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact my office.
Best Wishes,
Member of Congress

Honest response. I didn't expect this. I wonder when I will get my response from him. It's a little encouraging that my representative, despite his party affiliation, is not just spewing the same anti drivel: "I respect the second amendment BUT....".
"Each of us should have the expectation of safety in our daily lives."
This is the only statement that seems ignorant to me. Safety is an illusion.
If his votes match his stated position, I may have to vote for him next time.

Paul Gosar AZ house of reps
I've been sending all kinds of emails, like the rest of you.
here is Paul Gosar's response to my email asking him to oppose any new firearm legislation, as well as a promise to do my best to have someone else fill his seat if he does.
Dear Mr. Heslin,
Thank you for contacting me about the tragic events that occurred at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Connecticut. This tragedy affected so many, and I am always glad to hear your thoughts, concerns, and opinions on the matter.
First, my thoughts and prayers are with all of those affected by the tragic shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut. My deepest sympathies are with the families and loved ones of the staff and students who were killed or injured and those who witnessed this horrific event. We mourn the loss of the school children and adults whose lives were claimed by the heartbreaking acts on December 14, 2012.
We must now pause and reflect as to how we can prevent a repeat of the events in Newtown, Connecticut while preserving our liberties and values, including the right to bear arms. Our Constitution recognizes certain core liberties that we are endowed with by Godnot by the Federal government. The right to defend oneself and one's family and property are among these. The founders of this country knew that having capable citizens willing to take up arms to defend the Republic was essential. For that reason, each individual was given the right to own, possess and responsibly use firearms.
In an effort to prevent other instances like the events in Newtown, we must also engage in a broader discussion that includes increased access to mental health care services. This should include educating the public about the warning signs of those who would harm themselves and others and addressing the stigma related to diagnosis and treatment. Most individuals with severe and persistent mental illness will not commit violent crimes but we need a system in place to recognize and intervene when a risk is posed.
It is crucial that we enforce existing gun laws already on the books. It is my hope that this tragedy results in solutions designed to prevent other similar occurrences.
Irresponsible and criminal use of arms cannot be tolerated, but I believe that using new gun control laws to address this case and others like it would be unwise and ineffective. The federal government must not sink to the lowest common denominator to punish responsible citizens and to infringe on Constitutional rights. I find it distasteful that some people seek to capitalize on a tragedy in order to trample on our Constitution for political gain.
Please know that as your Congressman, I fully support Second Amendment rights and the right to own and carry firearms in a responsible manner. I will oppose any unconstitutional efforts by the federal government to infringe upon Second Amendment rights. I have been a life-long supporter of responsible gun ownership. I have also been a hunter for most of my life, and I am well aware of our rights and duties relative to firearms. We must remain vigilant and enforce all of our constitutional rights, not simply pick and choose the ones we like. Our constitutional rights are not dependent upon which president, or which Congress, is in office.
Again, I appreciate your thoughts and concerns. It is a pleasure to serve Arizona as part of its Congressional Delegation. Your suggestions are always welcome, and if ever I may be of assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me.

This is Ted Poe's response to an email I sent. Emphasis is my own...
Dear Mr. MaterDei:
Thank you for contacting me to share your thoughts on firearms and the Second Amendment. I appreciate hearing from you on this important issue.
The tragedy in Newtown, Connecticut was unspeakable, incomprehensible and unimaginable evil. There are no words that can offer enough comfort and solace to a grieving community. Since that tragedy, there have been calls for immediate action ranging from legislation for more and less gun control and a national discussion on mental health.
I am an ardent supporter of the individual right to keep and bear arms protected under the Second Amendment. As a former prosecutor and judge, I have tried many shooters in criminal cases, but never a gun. Some may misplace blame on videogames, Hollywood, or the media, but the blame should always be on the shooter. Nations, like Mexico, that have outlawed guns completely have not seen a decline in gun-related deaths. Additionally, Fox News reported that Chicago has some of the toughest gun laws in America, but leads the nation in gun violence.
On January 16, 2013, the Administration issued 23 actions that they plan to take to address gun violence. Ranging from strengthening background checks to launching a national responsible gun ownership campaign, all actions are targeted to facilitate gun control. I do not believe executive orders are the way to control gun violence. The focus of any discussion or action must be on the individual, and I look forward to having that discussion with my colleagues in Congress.
Thank you again for contacting me with your thoughts. For additional information regarding current legislation and my representation of the 2nd District, please refer to my website: poe.house.gov. While you are visiting the website, be sure to sign up for my electronic newsletter.

I wrote both my senators after the Newtown shooting, expressing my hope that they would focus their efforts on stopping these deranged individuals, rather than on weapons, and urging them not to squander this opportunity to address the mental health system and involuntary commitment of certain individuals, and instead jump on the easy and very public bandwagon of gun control.
Alas, Sen. Mark Warner chose to ignore that plea, and do just that. He has expressed support for Diane Feinstein's ASW ban (never mind that the last one had no effect whatever on crime, nor did it prevent mass shootings like Columbine). And in an interview recently, he said:
Just as I couldn't support John McCain, after McCain-Feingold unconstitutionally restricted free speech, I can no longer support him. I cannot and will not support ANY politician who supports blatantly unconstitutional legislation, undermining my rights and liberties.
Maybe if he gets enough letters making it clear he's committing political suicide, supporting Feinstein's ASW ban in a state like Virginia, he'll rethink his support for that bill. I'm not holding my breath, but if you live in Virginia, write to him and let him know he's playing with fire on this one.

Well, I tend to vote republican more than democrat. But Warner was one of the few seemingly genuine moderate, centrist democrats I could support. No more. As I said, I don't want to be a single issue voter, but when a politician crosses the line into supporting blatantly unconstitutional laws, then he's crossed a line that makes it impossible for me to support him.

Senator Jeff Seesions of Alabama is strongly in the pro-gun,pro-second Amendment category.
Pet peeves;"If you don't carry your gun like I do you're irresponsible","if you don't use the lube,cleaner and preservative that I do...you don't know guns","if you don't agree with my favorite gun scribe/guru,you are obviously uninformed".....just to name a few.

Show helping to 'buck' one misconception about W.Va.
January 8, 2013
"Buckwild," MTV's new reality series that is supposed to replace the pop culture phenomenon "Jersey Shore," made its debut last week to an audience of 2.5 million viewers....
Outsiders like you lefties in here do NOT portray West Virginians either. You're liked about as much as these folks are.

"And "Buckwild" isn't a real snapshot of life in West Virginia or an accurate portrayal of its' people". Kudos to the Intermountain for that statement. Had the show been an accurate portrayal of its' people, most of the cast members would be overweight and diabetes infected. West Virginians are number two in that category nationwide and home of the number one party school, WVU. I say we all go have a big mac and watch some couches burn. Thanks for making me laugh. P.S. You might check that CNN viewership number that you refer to as "millions". I'm pretty certain that it's more like 250,000 - 500,000 at any given time. But not millions.

Puremagic, If you feel that way maybe you better stay in that "hollar" away from the folks in this state that don't mind associating with other people and showing them the hospitality the good people of this state have to offer. Because those people you descibe are West Virginians backwoods ******* hillbillies, a true minority in this state and tend to stick to the "hollers". The true West Virginia folk welcome people from other areas to come and enjoy our beautiful state.

Obama remains a polarizing figure
August 3, 2013
For Barack Obama, his fifth year must seem a dull repeat. Once more a tour around the country to drum up support for initiatives seemingly permanently stalled in Congres....
So the opinion stated here is that President Obama is at fault because he cannot transform the liars and grifters who lead the republican party into responsible leaders with a legitimate agenda.

Obama and senate democrats like Reid and Pelosi ARE the LIARS!!! But their ignorant followers are just like them so they just refuse to even look at FACTS. Facts get in their way of their evil agendas. They want to be able to control everyone and NOT just the ignorant ones that follow them now and support their wicked deeds and lies. It's not going to happen. Thank God theirs more intelligent people left in this country than stupid ones. Enjoy your miserable govt assistance daily life liberals because as long as you all keep demanding free govt handouts....your life will never be a happy one. It's obvious because the left are the most INTOLERANT, ANGRY, MISERABLE bunch of losers a generation has ever witnessed. Ignorance is NOT bliss. But for some ungodly reason, they think it is.

OK, solutions, you clearly have no idea about how the US government works (and I used that word advisedly). May I suggest the YouTube version of School House Rocks "How a Bill Becomes Law"?
The Speaker of the House, whose name appears to have escaped you, presents bills for votes. The current Speaker claims to use the Hastert Rule, but he does not. This REPUBLICAN Speaker cannot get legislation passed without the support of the Democrats. The House republicans represent the complete chaos and division which exists in the party. As an example of how ineffective the House is, the 13th vote was taken to defund ACORN. ACORN ceased to exist in 2010.

The "Nothing Compares 2 U" singer, 45, announced her split from fourth husband, Barry Herridge, on Monday, 16 days after the two tied the knot in a well-planned Dec. 8 drive-through wedding in Las Vegas. Now, O'Connor tells Britain's Sun tabloid, "I don't think I will even date anyone."
What sabotaged the union? "It felt like I was living in a coffin. It was going to be a coffin for both of us, and I saw him crushed," she says of Herridge, 38. "The whole reason I ended it was out of respect and love for the man."
In addition, O'Connor owns up in the interview that she went on a frantic hunt for cannabis on their wedding night.
"We ended up in a cab in some place that was quite dangerous," O'Connor is quoted as telling the Sun. "I wasn't scared – but he's a drugs counselor. What was I thinking?"
She adds: "Then I was handed a load of crack. Barry was very frightened – that kind of messed everything up a bit, really."
Bipolar DisorderThe singer is no stranger to opening up about her personal problems. In 2007 O'Connor candidly discussed with Oprah Winfrey her struggle with bipolar disorder.
O'Connor said her depression started as she grew up in an abusive household and then intensified as she found success professionally. "The volume just slowly went up and up and up," she said.
Though initially too frightened to take her prescribed medications, O'Connor did take them. "It was brilliant because I felt this huge hole," she said. "And when I took the meds, within half an hour, it was literally like I felt concrete coming in to fill the hole."
During her depression, she said, "I actually kind of died and got born again as a result of taking the meds and having a chance to, you know, build a life."

What's on: Kidspace for Families
Under-5s can explore and investigate their own 'mini-museum' space.
- Event Type:
- Kids
- Time:
- 09.30 AM to 05.00 PM
- Location:
- Level 2, Kidspace
- Admission:
- Free after admission
Designed especially for inquisitive under-5s and their carers, Kidspace is a dedicated 'mini-museum' that stimulates young children's imaginations and encourages them to explore the natural world.
Kids are encouraged to investigate real-life objects and specimens by peering into magnifying glasses to examine insects, looking at animal X-rays on a light table and even touching a human skeleton!
5 cubby house 'pods' to explore
Kidspace features five 'pods' or cubby houses loaded with fun activities for kids (and big kids too). There's a bug pod, marine pod, volcano pod, observation pod and imagination pod. Kids are encouraged to look, see and guess a range of simple concepts, objects and animals. They can move from pod to pod, learning new things as they go - or stop along the way and play with a tree house or make a new friend!
A baby-friendly space
Kidspace also caters for curious crawlers. A special closed-off area keeps babies safe and lets them practise movement and actions to help them understand the world around them. Mums, dads and grandparents are always happy to know we offer:
- pram parking
- a bottle warmer (just ask one of the staff)
- change and feeding space.
