Judged: 2 1 1 New York ranks as the third toughest gun laws State, and likewise they rank third in violent crimes. More people are murdered with a baseball bat/pipe than they are with all rifles and shotguns combined.( FBI.gov ) Every mass shooting that occurred in the past 10 years happened in "gun free" zones.(Even the Ft. Hood incident). It is apparent that democrats and criminals have one thing in common; they prefer unarmed victims. The bills limiting ammo purchases do not concern me very much. After all, most frequent shooters reloads their own ammo.(Saves a lot of money) |

Judged: 5 4 4 You have the cart before the horse. California, New York, and other states with high rates of gun crimes have instituted gun control rates because of the crime; and not the other way around, as you mistakenly assume. I would like to see all guns registered, and tracked. When a gun is "stolen" from Virginia, and kills a child in Sacramento, I'd want the last registered owner auomatically charged with that murder. So many guns are sold on the street, and reported "stolen" that a murder charge would both give us a real picture of who is dealing guns to criminals; and also give the 'loosey-goosey' gun owners (not like yourself) a real reason to secure their guns. If the gun was truly stolen, the gun-owner-suspect could appear before the judge, prove his innocence; and be dismissed from the case. If the same suspect/owner turns up in ten different murders, we can see the pattern. I know well that real enthusiasts, reloaders like yourself, would not dream of selling your guns to thugs. The problem remains that too many guns are being sold on the street to criminals and crazy people after illegally migrating from states which have none or loose gun control. People don't create mass murders and massacres, guns create massacres. Finally, you do know that the real problem is not pipes, rifles, baseball bats, or shotguns. The real crime problem is handguns, automatic weapons, and assault rifles. Every American killed by these weapons is another notch on Scalia's tombstone. |
Judged: 1 1 1 Yes, You are correct. All anyone has to is look to Chicago to see that criminals such as gangbangers mainly always use a handgun as trying to hide a rifle or shotgun in there waist ban is difficult and would be harder to unholster it so they can murder innocent people. Another is that what politicans and L.E. like to call "gun free zones" should be renamed to "mass murder zones" as such a decluration gives criminals free reign to mass murder at will. Lastly what all these gun grabbers who discribe the firearm that was used in the colorado theather shooting as an "assault rifle" do not understand what the actual of definition of what an assault rifle is and actual should be appalled to be using a nairitive that was coined by Adolf Hitler. BTW, what we have in this country are M.S.R.'s (Modern Sporting Rifles) which are patterned to look like an older version of a military rifle. These rifles are semi-auto unlike a military version which is fully automatic and which in most states are illegal and can not be owned by the average firearms owner. Plus in some states even if you carry a FFl you still can't own a fully automatic firearm. |
Judged: 2 2 2 you really are insaine!guns create massacres? thats funny. so armys create wars? go put your head back in the sand. |
Judged: 2 2 1 Billy you seem always to forget. A CRIMINAL WILL NOT BUY A FIREARM THAT CAN BE TRACED TO HIM. ALL THOSE LAWS DO IS KEEP A CRIMINAL FROM BUYING ONE FROM A LICENSED DEALER.WHEN THE CRIMINAL STEALS OR BUYS OFF THE BLACK MARKET, THE GUN LAW HAS NOT PREVENTED HIM FROM GETTING ONE ..JUST THINK IT MAY BE BE A NEW EXPERIENCE FOR LIBS.using your logic if someone would steal you car and run over and kill someone while running from cops, you would want to go to jail for him...of if you sold your car to someone and they ran over some one would you want to go to jail? Seems you would not want the one who pulls the trigger in a crime to go to jail but the person from who the criminal stole the firearm. Now that is some real logic... |
Judged: 1 1 1 |
"It's a Brand New Day" Since: Feb 06 19,551 New Rochelle |
Judged: 2 2 2 I see that you are unfamiliar with gun shows, or with the practice of selling a loads of guns out of a car trunk, and then reporting them stolen. If criminals, as you suppose, only buy illicit guns, ask yourself how so many guns go illicitly into the hands of criminals. I appreciate shooters and collectors. But they must take more responsibility for the dead children killed by their posturing which prevents better control of gun traffic. Remember too, if only criminals had guns, they would soon run out, since all the guns would evenntually have bodies on them. Criminals buy guns wholesale, and sell them on street corners, whether you can accept that reality or not. Gun enthusiasts have to do better than posturing, if they want the responsibility for all the recent killings lifted from them. And, I am a centrist, and not a 'lib.' And I can tell that you are not a moron, like many here; so, you can figure out how this "black market" you refer to is able to meet all criminal demands for guns, year after year. Cars are not like handguns. They are not made for killing, and it is much hardrer to use a car to threaten or kill someone than a gun, no? So, poor comparison, you might just as well say guns are like grapes, or raisins. |
"It's a Brand New Day" Since: Feb 06 19,551 New Rochelle |
Judged: 1 1 1 Your 'food for thought' lacks any value. Guns make crime happen, but do not initiate the crime. A criminal with a gun is much more likely to use it on you than his fork, or his car. I don't see a point to comparing a gun in a criminal's hand to a plate in his hand. He threaens me with a plate, and I kick his ass. He points a gun and I empty my pockets. Do you get that? How many people in that movie theater would have been run over, or stuck with a fork? Can you get over the childish, stupid rhetoric, and get real? |
I can see you if threatened you would respond by presenting both limp wrists and saying "what have i done to offend you, please don't hurt me, there is a law against that" and as far as your other post I have been to myriad gun shows, they were pretty tightly supervised. I cannot speak for those in your area but the ones aruond here a "supervised" with law enforcement present and wen people purchase firearms they must pass an instant back ground check. You have been listening to too much CNN or MSNBC |
Did the truck cause the bombing of our barracks in Beiruit in Oct '83. You should have seen the carnage caused by the "truck" dipstick. the driver had no part in the matter, right |
"It's a Brand New Day" Since: Feb 06 19,551 New Rochelle |
Judged: 1 1 1 You almost, but not quite get it. How much damage could that creep have done if he walked up to ther US Marines and started punching them? But no, he used a bomb. A bomb is a deadly weapon, more dangerous than a gun.(Don't be confused by him arriving in a truck.) |
Judged: 1 1 1 HOWEVER, they still CHOOSE to act. I agree. We need to hold people responsible for their actions. That said, alchohol also reduces inhibitions to violence. That is why it is regulated, but not illegal. Firearms are a method of injuring people. They are not the only method, by far. What we need to do is punish those who choose to inflict the damage. It is their choice. What is the old saying? "With great freedom comes great responisibility." How can we expect freedoms if no one is willing to be responsible for their actions, or others are willingto give them an 'out' so that it is really someone else's fault: not the triggerman's fault? The key is human decisions. Punish those who make illegal ones. Don't punish those who cause no harm to anyone else. |
Since: Dec 11 2,363 Location hidden |
Judged: 1 1 1 The cart is not in front of the horse; you are just going in the wrong direction. When Washington DC enacted their infamous gun ban in 1968, homicides tripled that following year and remained the highest in the Nation until it was overturned by the Supreme Court in 2010. y 2011, murder dropped by 34% in DC. When Chicago enacted the gun ban in 1982, gun deaths increased 49% by the following year. When they legalized handguns again due to the SCOTUS ruling in 2011(though still too hard for many citizens to acquire) murder dropped by over 14% (Murder rates declined at only 6% at National Average) You make an interesting point about charging the owner for the murder even if their gun was stolen. Think about it; If someone steals your car, ends up killing somebody...You are responsible for that death and will be sentenced just as if you did it yourself. Why not? Cars kill more people than every type of firearm combined. We'll do the same with crowbars and baseball bats. More people are killed by these things than every rifle and shotgun combined. Want to help stop gun violence? Then hold Obama and Holder responsible for illegally selling firearms to criminals through "fast and furious". After all, the guns that they sold killed more people (300 + a federal agent) than every mass murder since 9/11 combined.(Somewhat Ironic that you place your trust in a government that can not maintain their arms, and voice out against those that do). Since 1982, only 7 people were killed in the U.S. with an automatic firearm.(You must possess a class 3 license to legally own one, and they are extremely regulated). Ironically, in all 7 of those cases, those automatics were stolen from law enforcement and from the military. Assault rifles are automatics, which I have listed above. Just because they are made of composite stock and have a hand grip does not make it an assault rifle. Just a regular rifle like grandpa used to own; same cartridges, same power, same capabilities. Just more modern. Pistols are necessary and serves best for self defense. This is why police carry them.(They use rifles when on the offensive). The simple truth is; there are more unarmed people killed than armed. Depending on your attacker to have mercy on you is not a good survival strategy. |

Judged: 1 1 1 I know that a reloader knows how easy it is to alter assault-based gund to automatic or semi-automatic operation, so stop the shit. You know your madeup statistics are insane. You are right about 'illegally selling firearms to criminals', and this program, began by Cheney-Bush; and continued by the Obama appointees. it was moronic, but not criminal. They should be fired. And a car is very different than a gun, so much so that your simile has no meaning. You ought to compare explosives to guns in order to make any sense. |
Since: Dec 11 2,363 Location hidden |
The gun show. All those people of every walk of life. Thousands of guns and millions of rounds of ammo. Yet not a single murder has ever been committed at one. Now for your gun free zones. Can you give just one example of a gun free zone that had not been targeted? I feel like a parrot saying this, but here it is; Criminals do not care about the law. This is why they are criminals. And they prefer unarmed victims since they can not shoot back. (BTW: Even at gun shows, a background check must be performed by all FFL dealers.) Just because cars are not made for killing does not change the fact that they kill more people than guns. Baseball bats and crowbars are not made for killing either, but they intentionally kill more people in the U.S. than every model/style of rifle and shotgun combined. More people die by mistakes made by their doctors/hospitals than by all firearms combined. As far as how these guns end up in the hands of criminals, let's ask obama and holder. After all, they were the ones who gave them to them. |

BIRMINGHAM, AL - The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) today awarded $1,558,191 to public housing and non-profit agencies in Alabama to help public housing residents find jobs and achieve economic and housing independence. The funding will also link the elderly and people with disabilities with supportive services that allow them to maintain independent living and age-in-place. This funding is part of nearly $35 million HUD awarded across the U.S. today.
HUD's Resident Opportunities and Self Sufficiency - Service Coordinators Program (ROSS-SC) helps public housing authorities (PHAs), resident associations or non-profit organizations hire or retain "service coordinators" who work directly with residents to assess their needs and connect them with education, job training and placement programs and/or computer and financial literacy services available in their community to promote self-sufficiency. For an elderly or disabled resident, the service coordinator arranges supportive services that allow them to maintain their independence.
"These service coordinators will help thousands of public housing residents connect to jobs and opportunities that lead to self-sufficiency and improved quality of life," said HUD Southeast Regional Administrator Edward Jennings, Jr.
The purpose of HUD's ROSS-SC program is to encourage local, innovative strategies that link public housing assistance with public and private resources to enable participating families to increase earned income; reduce or eliminate the need for welfare assistance; and make progress toward achieving economic independence and housing self-sufficiency.
HUD's mission is to create strong, sustainable, inclusive communities and quality affordable homes for all. HUD is working to strengthen the housing market to bolster the economy and protect consumers; meet the need for quality affordable rental homes: utilize housing as a platform for improving quality of life; build inclusive and sustainable communities free from discrimination; and transform the way HUD does business. More information about HUD and its programs is available on the Internet at www.hud.gov and espanol.hud.gov. You can also follow HUD on twitter @HUDgov, on facebook at www.facebook.com/HUD, or sign up for news alerts on HUD's News Listserv.

I feel pretty damn lucky to say yesterday wasn't the first time I've had the chance to sit down with Danny Way for an interview. However, it was in fact the first time I'd ever interviewed the man/ the legend. It was probably 5 years ago now, but for some intergalactic reason (let's just call it EA), Danny and Gonz (another man I could never muster up the courage to interview) were both in town and both at Antisocial. My friend Jay and Bob Kronbauer were in prime form after drinking a few and offered a Tattered Ten. The unreleased transcription and original tape is probably still in my desk somewhere.
Anyway, he had a lot of interesting, inspirational stuff to say and it got me that much more excited to see this documentary tonight at 8pm in Vancouver. Admission is FREE, but get there early as space is limited and seats will fill up fast. D. Way will be in attendance to make this occasion even more memorable. Make sure to stick around after the film for a chance to get on the FREE bus that is headed for the official after party (19+) at the Biltmore Cabaret where Josh Kalis will be doing a guest DJ set!
Immediately following Saturday's screening of Waiting for Lightning, head out to the sidewalk in front of Granville 7 Theatre and wait for the bus to swing by and pick everyone up for an official after party (19+) over at The Biltmore Cabaret (2755 Prince Edward).

C.P.M. and A.P.P. News
Affiliates are reminded to take advantage of ISM's program to document Continuing Education Hours. It is a simple process: affiliates complete a Continuing Education Hours (CEH) Documentation Request Form four to six weeks prior to a seminar (or other educational event) and return it to ISM. ISM will review the information to make certain the program subject matter is eligible for continuing education (for the C.P.M. and A.P.P. programs). If eligible, ISM will assign a program number and return the completed form, along with a log sheet and recommended Achievement Award forms. The person responsible for the program will then complete an Achievement Award form for each attendee and send a roster of attendees to ISM. The attendee submits the Achievement Award form when applying for C.P.M. recertification or A.P.P. reaccreditation.
Volunteer Appreciation and Management
Recognition for work well done motivates and inspires most people, but it is absolutely essential for volunteers. Rewards for volunteers do not come in the form of monetary compensation. And while money is important, what tends to motivate people to perform — and to perform at higher levels — is the thoughtful, personal kind of recognition that signifies true appreciation for a job well done.

I do have one issue when burning dvd's I'll use NERO 8 or Powerdirector 9. The PC is an ASUS CG series. Win 7 Home Premium. Less than a year old.
Never can I burn a DVD where everyone can read it. Usually it can be read on a cheap Wal-mart dvd player but not a more expensive Sony.
The media is usually Philips DVD-R or Memorex DVD+R. If it's the burner (A HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GH40N ATA DEVICE if I read it correctly) I would gladly change it!
I heard something about changing the Bit Setting" but only certain models.
Very confused & Frustrated.
This is actually common and I wish I knew why. For what ever reasons. DVD players have trouble with computer burned DVD's. Last spring I video taped a college production of the Wizard of Oz that my then 6 year old son was a Munchkin in and gave out DVD's of the performance to parents. Out of 50 DVD's about 10% of the parents had problems with the disk. They all were using expensive high end players except for 1 grand parent who had a player that pre-dated computer based DVD burning.

Artisan: Jaifah Aksornsri
"I'm Jaifah Aksornsri or Fah, and my name means 'of the sky.' I was born on October 19, 1964 in Chiang Mai province, Thailand. After my parents got married, they moved to a larger city to start their family and get a new chance in life.
"In town, my parents started making hill tribe dolls and silverware, and sometimes they sold antiques. My mom told me she'd took her goods in a bicycle basket or sometimes carry them her shoulder to sell at the hotel near the railway station. The same year I was born, they opened a shop. Many years later, they opened a bigger shop for silver and antiques. They loved to collect antiques and didn't want to sell them all. They wanted to protect many of them so that people from future generations could know about our art, styles and culture.
"After I graduated from college, I wanted to study for a master's degree or find a job like all of my friends did, but my parents wanted me to learn their work. They told me, 'This job is a real-life university.' I've learned by doing it all my life. They wanted me to succeed and try to protect their wisdom. This is my talent. I don't know where my skill and love for it comes from. My heart says it's because I've seen and been involved with my parents' work since I was young. Throughout my childhood, my friends were people who helped my parents, like the painter, the carpenter and the woodcarver."

KINGWOOD, W.Va. — Bryan Hovatter, 41, begins each day at 6 a.m.
He barely gets five hours of sleep a night, but that can be expected when 300 plus exotic and sometimes-deadly animals live in your backyard.
As he swings open his back door, he comes face-to-face with leopards.
It's not just leopards; Hovatter has nearly 40 different species of wildlife on his property — everything from Himalayan bears, giraffes, lions, tigers, camels, lemurs, tortoises, ostriches, bison and more.
It is a family affair. Both Hovatter and his oldest son, Logan, do most of the work — from building cages to making sure all the animals are fed.
Other family members work the gift shop and perform other necessary tasks.
Hovatter bought the 8-acre property nearly 25 years ago while he was a sophomore in high school. He said he was able to slowly buy it from a man up the street while working as a coal miner.
"I paid him what I could at the time," Hovatter said. "I began buying black bears, cougars and other wildlife to put on the property."
Hovatter owned a coal mine and worked there with his father and brother until coal sales declined and were forced to shut down. After leaving the mines, he became a full-time zookeeper and began adding more animals.
Hovatter opened up his property to the public in 1991. He dubbed it the Hovatter Wildlife Zoo and on average, more than 30,000 unique visitors make their way to the Preston County location each year. It opens to the public in April and typically closes in mid-October.
The zoo is licensed through the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Division of Natural Resources. Hovatter says his property is almost always being inspected by the federal government and strives to abide by all federal and state regulations.
Hovatter said the incident in Zanesville, Ohio, in October 2011, in which 49 exotic animals were shot dead following an escape, has put operations like his in a bind.
In that incident, Terry Thompson allowed the animals to escape and committed suicide afterward.
"I knew Terry personally," Hovatter said. "After that happened, the federal government enforced new regulations and laws which I had to abide by or be subjected to fines."
Hovatter said he constantly receives calls from federal and state officials and cooperates with their efforts to make sure the animals are properly cared for and housed.
To make sure no animal escapes, Hovatter does daily cage inspections. In addition, he has a perimeter gate. He has since bought seven more acres and is thinking about expanding.
With 300-plus animals, Hovatter's monthly grocery bill totals $10,000. His water bill nears $400 a month.
He coordinates with local farmers and buys chicken, beef, turkey and various fruits for his animals.
"Sometimes a farmer may have a dead cow that we could feed our lions," Hovatter said. "A lot of local farmers can give me deals on meat, which is great."
Hovatter said his giraffe named Zack has put his zoo on the map.
Zack was featured in the movie "Evan Almighty" and many people have traveled from all over to see him.
"Zack has become quite the celebrity," Hovatter said. "Zach is 2,800 pounds and stands a mere 18.5 feet high. The public can feed him carrots and he can easily consume a case of carrots a day."
Zack is housed in a shed specifically designed for a creature of his stature.
Hovatter said he wants to increase the giraffe population in the near future. He recently bought a baby giraffe named Zuri from Natural Bridge Zoo in Roanoke, Va.
Hovatter said he traveled to Roanoke to make sure Zuri was eating properly and was healthy enough for the trip back. In addition, Hovatter purchased a baby camel named Wednesday and placed it in the same enclosure with Zuri.
Hovatter said Zuri was born a twin. This happens once in 280,000 births. Since the twin was to go to Wisconsin, Hovatter wanted to make sure Zuri had a companion so he bought Wednesday as well.
The price tag for both was $65,000.

Hi Jessica,
We have beans and nibs available. It would be good to get you a sample, but sometimes that costs way too much from Nicaragua ($180 for a kilo or two). When I have someone I trust heading back to the States, I will try to send a sample along with them. It works way better that way I feel. If you give me an email address, I could send along more info about us.

So I'll be really upset if Damon Wayans Jr doesn't win an Emmy this year.
He is goofy but smooth, enjoys bath salts as much as basketball, and is fast becoming one of our new best buds. Every week, as Brad Williams on ABC's Happy Endings, Damon Wayans Jr., 29, finds a fun way to issue a smart-sass line or a disapproving, please-stop-trying-to-act-black look to his friends. And we revel in his loony-lovey relationship with wife Jane (Eliza Coupe). "It's cool how I'm more of a laid-back, happy guy and she's more type A controlling, but we're still really into each other," says Wayans, who bears more than a passing resemblance to his comedian dad. "I don't know too many married couples that have that much fun together — even on camera." Here's to the honeymoon never ending. (X)

[JURIST] The ACLU of Michigan [advocacy website] filed a federal suit Friday challenging a Michigan election law that limits access to information on presidential primary voters to the Democratic and Republican parties. The complaint [text, PDF] alleges that Section 615c [text] of the Michigan Election Law [text] is unconstitutional because it excludes other smaller parties, as well as individuals, citizen groups and news media, from seeing lists of voter preferences and gives preference only to the two major parties in violation of the Equal Protection Clause and 14th Amendment [Cornell Law backgrounders]. The ACLU said [press release]:
Michigan law does not require voters to register by party and therefore voter party preference information is valuable to political parties, individual candidates, citizen groups supporting or opposing ballot proposals, political consultants, news media, researchers, other specialized groups and members of the public.

A help desk for Symbian cell phones
Cell phone users might never be aware that LogMeIn Rescue+Mobile even exists, though most should be pleased it does. The remote-access app from the makers of the popular LogMeIn family (including LogMeIn Free) are back with a feature-rich tool that's custom-built for peering into broken cell phones.
I got a preview of the app at work on Symbian phones at the CTIA 2008 Wireless show in Las Vegas this week (it's already available for Windows Mobile phones). I was impressed with how well LogMeIn Rescue+Mobile organized the phone's file system for quick fixing, while also … Read more

Hi All,
I've just fnished my first database-driven website and have hit a BIG problem just before it's about to go live! I have a repeat region for each product, which contains a form. There is a 'more info' button (which is actually a submit button) and this passes the product data to a lightbox-style popup. I've been making sure this all works on Safari, firefox and IE8 but have just tested it on IE7 and only the first 'more info' button works. I don't have a clue why. I would be soooo grateful if someone could have a look at my code and tell me what's going wrong. Having a bit of a panic now! thanks guys
Here's the page http://goo.gl/5rlgc
So it looks like over 600 of the errors were due to my method of repeating the same IDs in a repeat region. I have cleaned up the other validation errors now, by removing the PHP stuff and revalidating. I'm confused about setting up a repeat region now as this was working on other browser so I thought it was the correct method. For example, the form used to pass data to the iframe is called 'form' so how would I stop this form ID repeating and causing validation to fail? I appreciate this may be difficult to explain in full but if you know of a good tutorial, it would really help me out. Thanks again.
Hi again. I've managed to get rid of all the validation errors (apart from one) using a counter as suggested. The only problem now is with the ID of the submit button (zoomProduct). Do you know how I could avoid duplication of this ID without breaking the function below, which triggers the popup? Thanks for your help so far, I'm one step away from going live now
$(document).ready(function() {
$("input#zoomProduct").colorbox({href: function(){
var url = $(this).parents('form').attr('action');
var ser = $(this).parents('form').serialize(); //alert(url+'?'+ser);
return url+'?'+ser;
}, innerWidth:760, innerHeight:"554", iframe:true});
I guess what I'm trying to do is add some sort of counter to the submit button's ID, without it conflicting with the above javascript that launches the popup. I've stripped the code back to basics now so it's easier to troubleshoot. Any help really appreciated. http://goo.gl/DVq2S

I remember hearing about similar problems last summer. There are several possible issues here:
1) Do you have a gmail.com or googlemail.com address? if it's googlemail.com try typing in gmail.com (only after factory resetting the phone, though). 2) Try just simply restoring the factory settings (will completely wipe your phone). 3) Clear the market cache In the meantime, you can download the AndroidPIT App Center via your phone's browser and use it to download apps and games. |

It is the "@Googlemail.com" that is the problem.
Sign into google mail on your pc go into your settings and change to an "@gmail.com" address instead. Factory reset phone (I know it sucks.. but just do it) During setup enter your new "@gmail.com" email address. Now try market.. it should work.

James Northup I bought the samsung i9000 s this week. Samsung apps work fine and download. Market apps signal "download starting". And will stay this way. Never downloading anything. I called Debitel to ask them if they sold me a lemon of a Cell. They said its a Google problem not phone and not market. Super what now? I read somewhere that this was a problem in August of last year. So why is it a problem for me now? Makes no sense. |

And though the largest numbers of amphibian passenger cars were made way back in the 1960s, the prospect of a car that can navigate waterways like a boat continues to attract inventors. By Phil Berg Email Comments 0 Share Back 4 of 9 Next Return to Gallery Return to Gallery Return to Gallery Back Next View Thumbnails U.S. Army DUKW GM built the DUKW, called Duck when it was produced, for the U.S. military in 1942. It was adapted from a troop-carrier truck. The awkward name came from GM's official designations: D meant the 1942 model year, U stood for utility, K was GM's code for front-drive, and W was the code for two rear axles. The DUKW's capacity was 5000 pounds or 25 soldiers. It'd do 50 mph on land or 5 mpg in the water. George Patton made the vehicle famous by using 1000 DUKWs to land in Sicily in 1943; 2000 participated in the D-Day landing in France in 1944. In sum, GM built 21,000 Ducks. Today the amphibious cars are mostly seen giving aquatic tours. Milwaukeean Melvin H. Flath bought a surplus DUKW and charged 50 cents for tours in 1946; now tour companies in various cities use a couple hundred of the vehicles.

Man charged with murder in death of boy, 2
Sunday - 5/26/2013, 1:48pm  ET
SUITLAND, Md. (AP) -- Prince George's County police say a two-year-old boy has died after a severe beating, and the child's mother's boyfriend has been charged with murder.
The boy, Jamar Shipe, was hospitalized Wednesday in critical condition. Police say he was found unresponsive at his Suitland home with injuries that included head trauma. Jamar died on Thursday.
Police announced Saturday that Jamar's death had been ruled a homicide. Twenty-six-year-old Clifton Bernard has been charged with first-degree murder and related offenses. He's being held without bond.
Court records show Bernard was previously convicted of theft and received a suspended jail term after violating his probation.

An Interview with Federico García Lorca
More About Federico García Lorca
Federico Garcia Lorca was born in 1898 in Fuente Vaqueros, a few miles outside Granada in the province of Andalusia, southern Spain. From an early age he was fascinated by Spain's mixed heritage, adapting its ancient folk songs, ballads, lullabies, and flamenco music into poems and plays. By the age of thirty, he had published five books of poems, culminating in 1928 with
Gypsy Ballads
, which brought him far-reaching fame. In 1929-30 he studied in New York City, where he wrote the poems—among his most socially engaging and compelling—that were to be published posthumously (and famously) as Poet in New York. Upon returning to Spain he devoted much of his attention to theater, "the poetry which rises from the page . . . and becomes human." In 1936, at the outset of the Spanish Civil War, he was shot to death by anti-Republican rebels in Franco's army, and his books were banned and destroyed.

The Grand Mesa, Uncompahgre and Gunnison National Forests (GMUG) is inviting comment on a proposal concerning a large portion of the GMUG that has experienced mortality from insects and diseases over the past decade.
The purpose of the Spruce Beetle Epidemic and Aspen Decline Management Response project (SBEADMR project) is to proactively and adaptively respond to declining forest vegetation conditions.
The approach is to actively manage vegetation consistent with the goals outlined in the Western Bark Beetle Strategy (July 2011) including promoting recovery from the insect outbreak, improving the resiliency of green stands to future disturbances and providing for human safety. Treatments would be carried out on National Forest System (NFS) lands within the scope of direction provided in the GMUG Revised Land and Resource Management Plan. Additional project details can be found here: http://www.fs.usda.gov/goto/SBEADMR. A map showing the project area can be found here: http://www.fs.usda.gov/goto/SSA
Across the GMUG, approximately 140,000 acres of spruce-fir and 145,000 acres of aspen forests have experienced substantial mortality from insects and diseases over the past decade. Impacts have rapidly increased in recent years. Based upon patterns of bark beetle kill that have occurred on adjacent forests, the GMUG expects rapidly increasing mortality. Once attacked by beetles, most trees typically die and eventually fall to the ground, adding dead and dry fuels that increase wildfire hazard.
The purpose of the project is to treat affected stands, improve the resiliency of stands at risk of these large-scale epidemics and reduce the safety threats of falling, dead trees and large-scale wildfires.
The primary tools for reducing tree mortality, safety threats and fire hazard in stands already experiencing beetle-induced mortality will be the removal of dead and dying trees. In stands which are threatened by the beetle outbreak, forest resiliency will be improved by reducing stand densities by promoting multi-storied stand structure. Pheromone spray treatments may be used in high-value areas. Aspen stands where less than 50 percent of the root system has been affected by decline would be candidates for aspen regeneration treatments.
The project is consistent with management direction identified in the amended GMUG National Forest Land and Resource Management Plan (Forest Plan) (1983, amended 1991, 1993, 2008 and 2012). This proposed action responds to goals and objectives described in the Forest Plan and moves the project area toward desired conditions (Forest Plan, 1991, pages III-1 through III-5). Specifically, the Forest Plan goal for vegetation is to "manage vegetation in a manner to provide and maintain a healthy and vigorous ecosystem resistant to insects, diseases and other natural and human causes.
Based on these conditions and Forest Plan direction, the need for this project is to manage forest vegetation to bring current and foreseeable conditions (i.e., with no action) closer to desired conditions on landscapes available for active management.
GMUG staff estimates a range of 4,000 to 6,000 acres of commercial harvest treatments would occur annually, or a total 40,000 to 60,000 acres over the life of the 10-year project. Another 3,000 to 6,000 acres of non-commercial (mechanical and prescribed fire) treatments could also occur should funding be available. Opportunities to use prescribed fire to meet treatment objectives will also be explored. Areas that are difficult to access and/or have slopes exceeding 35 percent will not be mechanically treated. This project proposes no mechanical treatments within administratively restricted areas such as Colorado Roadless Areas (CRAs), Research Natural Areas or Special Management Areas managed for Wilderness values.
The approach is to actively manage vegetation consistent with the goals outlined in the Western Bark Beetle Strategy (July 2011, available at: http://www.fs.fed.us/publications/bark-beetle/bark-beetle-strategy-appendices.pdf) including, promoting recovery from the insect outbreak, improving the resiliency of green stands to future disturbances and providing for human safety. These general goals will be adapted to local landscapes where treatments are needed based on governing management direction, foreseeable conditions and local environment, social and economic concerns.
The GMUG Forest Supervisor is the Responsible Official for the SBEADMR project. After considering the proposed action and any alternatives, the environmental analysis and public comments, the Forest Supervisor will decide whether to conduct treatments to remove dead and dying trees, treat fuels, reforest trees, reduce and slow the progress of the beetle epidemic and promote regeneration of aspen stands. If an action alternative is selected, the Supervisor will decide where treatments may occur and what actions are appropriate and may be taken. Finally, the decision will include the scope of monitoring that should occur. No Forest Plan amendment is proposed.
The environmental analysis will be documented in an Environmental Impact Statement. A "No Action" alternative and other alternatives that may be developed during the public comment periods will be considered. No cooperating agencies have been identified.
Opportunity to comment on the scope of the Proposed Action ends 30 days following the publication date of the Notice of Intent to prepare an environmental impact statement in the Federal Register. Comments submitted in the following formats will be accepted: written, facsimile, hand-delivered and electronic. In order to be eligible to object to the USFS's decision on this project, individuals must comment during this 30 day comment period or during the comment period on the review of the draft.

Courses offered through this department are primarily designed to teach students skills for successful completion of postsecondary education and for functions outside of the institution, such as study skills, time management, and personal growth and understanding. Courses may also focus on particular aspects such as career, leadership and critical thinking.
According to a Florida Department of Education report, the Student Life Skills course (SLS1122):
"which was designed to teach students test-taking skills, study skills, time management, and financial management, is having a positive impact on all students who successfully complete it. Upon examining the content of the course, one might assume this course would be most beneficial for students requiring developmental education. However, through the analysis presented above it can be seen that the Student Life Skills course is beneficial to all students regardless of their preparation for college." (Taking Student Life Skills Course Increases Academic Success, 2006)
The Dynamics of Student Success course (SLS1122) is specifically required of those students who placed into college preparatory reading courses. However, it and all of the Student Life Skills courses are recommended for any undergraduate who wants to refresh prior skills or learn new ones to improve academic performance and better manage other life habits and behaviors.
