Gun control debate takes Mexico into account
li class="byline"> by Julián Aguilar, The Texas Tribune
<time datetime="2013-01-20T06:00:00"> January 20, 2013 </time>

In the recent debate about stricter gun control, some officials on both sides of the Rio Grande saw a sliver of hope — that such laws might curb the flow of illegal weapons over the United States' southern border.

"I hope that whatever we are going to do in trying to protect our gun rights but at the same time regulate the legal ownership of weapons is going to have a component on guns that are being smuggled out of the country so easily now and causing the carnage," said Alonzo Peña, the former deputy director of Immigrations and Customs Enforcement who also served as a Department of Homeland Security attaché at the U.S. Embassy in Mexico City.

But the national debate, coupled with the Obama administration's proposals to tighten gun laws, has only fortified the ranks of Second Amendment proponents in Texas, who remain adamant that the border states that are a main source for weapons in Mexico's drug war are not responsible for the thousands of murders in that country since 2006.

After President Obama last week called for more background checks on potential gun purchasers and a ban on military-style assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, Republican lawmakers immediately rebuked the White House's efforts. Texas state lawmakers have already filed legislation in Austin that would permit college students to carry weapons on campus and proposed a measure that would also open the door for gun-carrying marshals at primary schools.

Attorney General Greg Abbott last week threatened Travis County and the City of Austin with a "double-barreled" lawsuit when they considered banning gun shows on public property, and Gov. Rick Perry has said the country's Democratic leadership is using the slaughter of innocent children as a political pawn.

"The piling on by the political left, and their cohorts in the media, to use the massacre of little children to advance a pre-existing political agenda that would not have saved those children, disgusts me personally," Perry said in a statement on Wednesday.

Other Texas Republicans dismissed the notion that it was time to re-evaluate what role the U.S. plays in the carnage in Mexico, where more than 70,000 people have been killed in cartel-related violence since former President Felipe Calderón launched a war on organized crime in December 2006.

A December 2012 report from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives showed that more than 68,160 of the approximately 99,700 weapons recovered in Mexico and submitted for tracing from 2007 to 2011 had originated in the U.S.

But U.S. Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Austin and the chairman of the House Committee on Homeland Security, said the data is misleading and that changing gun laws in the United States would not change gun behavior in Mexico.

"The fact is, guns are illegal to possess in Mexico," McCaul said, "and that certainly hasn't had any effects on the drug cartels."

He said he understood that the debate is fueled by emotion, which he said was inevitable after years of bloodshed in Mexico and the murder of 20 schoolchildren in Connecticut. But he also said the public is not aware that many of the weapons favored by cartels like the Zetas come from other countries and are often not traceable, which inevitably leads to data that reflects poorly on the U.S.

"We all feel for what happened recently with the shooting in a very emotional way, but the fact is, a lot of their AK-47s, which is the Zetas' gun of choice, those are coming from China and Russia," McCaul said. "We could make guns in the United States illegal altogether and I don't think it's going to stop the drug cartels from getting weapons."

Gun-control proponents who link the United States' gun laws to violence in Mexico have drawn attention to what they call the gun-show loophole, which allows many dealers to sell firearms without conducting background checks. Critics call it a significant flaw that allows weapons to fall into the wrong hands, and law enforcement officers say it has aided the illegal smuggling of weapons into Mexico.

Land Commissioner Jerry Patterson, a Republican and gun collector who authored the state's concealed handgun law in 1995 when he served as a state senator, drew attention last month when he suggested that he was open to changing how background checks are conducted at gun shows.

But Patterson is not changing his mind on gun rights. What he is actually calling for is a privacy measure, he said, which would allow a customer to get a background check at a gun show that is good for the duration of the event — but that would not leave evidence of the purchase.

Patterson said what gun owners fear is what they believe gun control proponents want: to record every conveyance of a firearm.

"The fear is that things like that lead to registration," Patterson said. "Registration may not be unconstitutional, but confiscation certainly is, and you can't have confiscation without registration."

In one of his first public statements after being appointed Mexico's ambassador to the U.S., Eduardo Medina Mora, the former attorney general of Mexico, said the Connecticut shooting presented officials in the United States with an opportunity to quell the illegal flow of weapons into his country.

And U.S. Rep. Beto O'Rourke, D-El Paso, said ignoring the smuggling of weapons across the border during the current gun control debate would be counterproductive to the United States' work under the Mérida Initiative, a $1.4 billion aid package of equipment and training designed to help Mexico and Central America fight drug violence. He said better enforcement of existing American laws, closing gaping loopholes and instituting waiting periods for the purchase of high-powered guns should be on the table.

"As part of a community that has seen more than 10,000 people murdered in the last five or six years, this is certainly a discussion worth having," O'Rourke said. "El Paso and other communities that have a unique perspective on this, given the recent violence in Mexico, should certainly be part of the conversation."

Patterson acknowledged there is a problem with weapons smuggling into Mexico. But he said the best solution to end the carnage there is outside his purview as a Texas official.

"It wouldn't be a U.S. law; it would be a Mexican law," he said. "There is no right to bear arms in Mexico. I would put forth a law that would establish a Second Amendment to keep and bear arms for Mexican citizens."

|Vantage team visits Haiti
|Wednesday, April 24, 2013 1:37 PM
Social studies teacher Peg Bollenbacher, the club's advisor, has traveled to Haiti annually for 10 years. She will retire this year and is turning over the Interact Club to science teacher Matthew Miller. Bollenbacher will continue to return to Haiti annually on her own, as she has a deep bond with the local Haitians involved in our project.
Vantage will continue to target resources to meet their instructional needs. As incoming president of Van Wert Rotary, my service project will likely be constructing a green structure, or Earthship, (google Earthship Haiti) to supply solar power and sanitized water to some degree. Several of Ohio's Rotary club's incoming presidents have indicated possible interest in helping accomplish this important goal.
As I expected prior to going to Haiti, words cannot express what I saw and experienced during the seven days I was there. I have memories for a lifetime, a lot of photos of the culture and people, and a renewed commitment to our Interact Club's project in Haiti.

Men's Soccer to Play Final Home Game of Season
The Jacksonville University men's soccer team will play their final home game of the season tonight against the University of Nebraska-Omaha. The team will also be honoring the ten seniors on the team during a pregame ceremony. The game will start at 6:00 p.m. at the Ashley Sports Complex.
The Dolphins (8-7-2, 5-2-1 in A-Sun) come into the game looking to gain some momentum going into next week's Atlantic Sun conference tournament after two tough losses in overtime. JU finished the A-Sun regular season in third place and will take on the sixth seeded East Tennessee State on Wednesday, November 9th in Johnson City, Tennessee.
This year's class of seniors has combined to play 26 seasons at JU and has posted 34 victories over the last four years. The group has also qualified for the A-Sun tournament three out of the last four years. They won the conference tournament in 2008 and advanced to the second round in the NCAA tournament.
Tonight's game is also a Coaches vs. Cancer event. There will be containers set up before the game where people can donate to the American Cancer Society to help fund research to find a cure for cancer. In addition, the team autographed an authentic jersey and had it framed and will be auctioning it off in the near future with the proceeds also being donated to the American Cancer Society.

Our industry affiliations include:
- American Numismatic Association (ANA) Life Members
- CAC (Certified Acceptance Corporation) Authorized Submission Center
- PCGS (Professional Coin Grading Service) Authorized Dealer
- NGC (Numismatic Guarantee Corp) Authorized Dealer
- Certified Coin Exchange
- ANS (American Numismatic Society)
National Coin Broker provides the service that investors and collectors need—a stellar commitment to outstanding performance and A+ results. So whether you are looking to purchase truly rare gold coins or just looking to buy gold coins with semi-numismatic value as a diversification in your hard assets portfolio, we look forward to doing business with you.
What We Do
Buying rare coins is both gratifying and financially rewarding. National Coin Broker chooses only those high quality coins that have an unparalleled attraction for our customers. However, because all coins are not literally "rare," we ensure that those we select have every reason to increase in value based upon supply and demand. We recommend buying only classic rarities that are associated with significant milestones in the history of our country as well as key dates within popularly collected series.
We provide each client with a comprehensive plan so that he or she can become the holder of extraordinarily valuable coins for the future. In essence, you will be a "depository" for future collectors.
Given today's economy, investors are no longer assured that traditional investments provide safety or security. We no longer know how much money will be needed to live well in the future. Certainly, the majority of investors do not concern themselves with how to rise above a potential disruption in the American paper money system or even the current banking and finance system. Amazingly, the majority of investors have no "hard asset" investments while a small percentage of others may begrudgingly add some 90% silver coins or buy gold coins as a hedge.
We believe that rare coin investing is bedrock for any long-term financial portfolio. Rare coins are so desirable because they are portable, private, liquid, have an outstanding profit record and global appeal. In addition, they have a 100% guarantee of economic worth during economic stress.
We also believe in assisting our investors and collectors buy rare coins because they do not undergo dramatic or unexpected price swings like stocks, gold futures and other commodities. When we say "buy gold coins" we are referring to those collector issues with a track record and established rarity. This is mainly due to the tremendous collector base of a particular series or denomination. It is estimated there are more than 35,000,000 coin collectors and investors who buy, sell and trade coins regularly, with new collectors entering into the market daily. This provides a groundswell of solidarity because collectors tend not to sell. To them it is a hobby, not an investment. Typically their coins are in large collections, which are used as legacies for the next generation. This creates steady and consistent demand. Another huge plus is that coins are 100% paid when you become their owner. Therefore, there are no price fluctuations such as those that happen in other markets.
In sum, when buying rare coins, you do not have to worry about daily buy or sell decisions, interest rates, GNP, balance of trade deficit or any other economic problem. The long-term graph of early federal coins and rare gold coins is rising. Let National Coin Broker help you take advantage of this worry-free investment with a rare coin portfolio designed specifically for your needs.

Michael Jackson is so unmatched that it's hard to imagine him being influenced by anyone. But before he became the king of pop, he was listening to Motown just like everyone else.
Michael looked up to his brother and bandmate Jermaine Jackson during their time in the Jackson 5.
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame cites soul/funk band Sly and the Family Stone as a precursor to the Jackson 5. Here, Stone makes his first major public appearance in almost 13 years during a tribute to "Sly & The Family Stone" at the 48th annual Grammy Awards in Los Angeles Feb. 8, 2006.
Michael Jackson named James Brown as one of his musical heroes.
Singer Michael Jackson (L) performs with soul singer James Brown before presenting him with the Lifetime Achievement Award at the 3rd Annual BET (Black Entertainment Television) Awards in Hollywood, June 24, 2003.
Etta James' success in integrating blues, R&B and jazz opened up a new genre that welcomed the Jackson 5.
When Michael Jackson wanted to reinvent his sound, he turned to the mid-'80s and early '90s trend known as New Jack Swing, pioneered by singer Bobby Brown.
It's no surprise that Michael Jackson called energetic performer Little Richard one of his biggest inspirations.

Asia is the biggest continent on Earth, a darling little gem floating around in space.
Hm, what is Asia? Who's in on it?
China and India are safe bets for Asian nations. Korea, Japan, Thailand, you're fine.
Europe? No. Europe would sort of be on the "Asian continent" if not for those pesky Ural mountains dividing things up in the middle, and then also the whole lineage of kings and wealth and nations and the EU and all that "give me my respect" stuff.
Russia would probably be happiest as its own continent, so for now we'll leave it in "Eurasia" and just hope the natural gas supplies keep flowing.
Pakistan and Afghanistan are dang close to Asia, but politically they show up in "Middle East" news stories an awful lot. Verdict: Eurasia.
I guess we'll actually have to consider everything from Turkey on eastward to be "Eurasian", although the moniker seems overlappitory of the territory.
The Asian economy is now officially raging like a wild furnace of lava that consumes everything in its path. Japan has had the largest individual economy in Asia for decades, but it is forecast that both India and China will outstrip Japan within twenty years.
China is the largest holder of United States debt and is positioned to become the world's next superpower, provided that Godzilla doesn't return and decide to stomp everybody back into the Shang Dynasty.

Some tips for finding literary analysis
- Using an appropriate article database is a must for locating articles or chapters on a topic:
- Very specific searches (specific focus about a specific character in a specific work) may not net the desired results. It's always worth trying for a direct bullseye, but sometimes you need to adjust your aim.
- Search for analysis about the book, play, etc., being written about. You'll see what others are focusing on. You may find they use other terms for your focus that can be searched to increase your result pool.
- Search for analysis about the author of the book, play, etc., being written about. Your focus may be a thematic/technical element that shows up repeatedly in their work. Materials that focus on authorial concerns may include information about your work, or be relevant to your analysis of it.
- When using the library catalog, try adding the term criticism to searches for material about an author, literary movement, or time period (see catalog search tips for examples).
- In addition to looking for articles targeting a topic, if books have been written about your author's work, examining the table of contents and indexes of promising ones may help isolate chapters of relevance.
hint: when an author is well known and been written about for a long time, you may find many article database results focus upon your author's influence on later works of literature, by other authors. When this is the case, and, if it is not what you want, books can provide a way to get at literary analysis focusing more directly on your author & their work.
- If the overall goal is to find analysis of an author's ideas and influence, and he/she is a philosopher, theologian, psychologist -- or the subject of inquiry in a discipline besides literature -- you may also wish to explore the recommended databases for that subject.
note: whether this approach is helpful, depends on your specific needs and the kind of analysis you seek -- an article on Camus in a philosophy journal will use a different lens to examine his work than that used by a literary journal.

OAKLAND — Josh Donaldson mimics Miguel Cabrera whenever he can, and he has no problem copping to it.
Donaldson spent a couple of days each week over the offseason studying tape of Detroit's star in the batter's box, trying to pick up on anything he could apply to his own hitting for Oakland.
Indeed, Donaldson learned a thing or two that worked on the way to a breakout season: .301 batting average, 24 home runs, 93 RBIs in 158 games for the AL West champion Athletics.
"JD's the MVP of our team and Miguel Cabrera is the MVP of baseball," A's first baseman Brandon Moss said.
These two talented third basemen will face off in the playoffs for the second straight October starting with Game 1 of the AL division series Friday night.
One is a household name, 2012 Triple Crown winner and widely considered the best hitter in baseball. The other is more anonymous up-and-comer whose spectacular September in his first full major league season earned him AL player of the month honors.
Cabrera is making $21 million this season, Donaldson a mere $492,500.
"I've watched his videos a lot as far as a hitter," Donaldson said. "He's a highly talented hitter, and I really appreciate the way he goes about hitting and I try to learn from him at what he's doing. I feel he's one of the best hitters in the game that goes to right field, and what's helped me be able to take it to the next level this year is the ability to be able to hit it to right field. Watching him over the course of time has definitely helped me."
Cabrera was pleased to hear that Donaldson had studied his tape.
"Oh, that's great. That's awesome," Cabrera said. "He's a great player. He's one of the reasons the Oakland A's are in the playoffs. He brings a lot of energy to their ballclub. I think you'll see he can change the game with his bat but his glove, too."
And to think Donaldson had prepared to play catcher until he was called upon to fill in at third when Scott Sizemore went down with a season-ending knee injury at the start of spring training 2012.

Copious Thoughts from the Dark Corners of Cards Camp: Dan Williams
The Arizona Cardinals are excited about their nose tackle. Dan Williams was a disappointment for much of last season because he played at 350 pounds and had a bottom as wide as the sea. It was difficult for Dumpster Dan to move and get off blocks and he would fatigue quickly. Although he played well before destroying his elbow and was starting to be the force in the middle the Cards needed, most experts believed big Dan was going to have to play anywhere from 328 to 330 pounds if he was going to be effective.
Dan Williams reported to camp weighing 314 pounds and if his conditioning test is any indicator of the kind of season he might have, defensive coordinator Ray Horton can expect greatness.
The Cardinals run a true 34-Defense and the key to the 34's rush defense is to have a run-stuffer over the center. This is why the Cards drafted him out of Tennessee. He has all the tools you look for when you describe a nose tackle: nasty, stout, strong, with the moon stuffed into his pants.
Big Dan is almost too light for me! I'd like to see him play around 325, but his lateral mobility and new-found conditioning will allow him to play at a much higher level than he did last year. The Cardinals were right in the middle of the pack last year, allowing 4.18 yards/carry on the ground. Based on what I saw today, this team could easily be in the top third of the league in that statistic this season.
Great Job, Dan Williams!

Assaulted Great Harwood landlord calls for more to join pubwatch
3:00pm Saturday 25th January 2014 in News
A PUBLICAN who was subjected to a 'prolonged and frenzied attack' has called for more pubs in Hyndburn to join a pub watch scheme.
John Mainland was repeatedly punched by Elliot Scott Mounsey as he tried to stop him taking a glass outside the Cross Axes, in Church Street, Great Harwood.
The 21-year-old, of Petre Crescent, Rishton, pleaded guilty to assaulting Mr Mainland, damaging a door at the pub, being drunk and disorderly, and resisting a police officer outside the Calder Pub in Accrington later the same night.
Mr Mainland said the attack had unsettled him.
He said: "I wouldn't say I was frightened but I have been on edge over the festive period.
"I have not enjoyed it at all.
"Fortunately, this does not happen on a regular basis."
Mr Mainland said pub in Great Harwood, Rishton and Clayton-le-Moors, and Accrington, operate a pub watch scheme, which means if a punter is banned from one pub, they're barred from them all.
But some publicans refused to join the scheme, and freely allow customers banned at other pubs through their doors, Mr Mainland said.
He said: "We need all the pubs to work together to enforce it, but some just serve who they want to serve.
"You generally find they are the ones who have to call the police more often because of trouble."
The police can also apply to the courts to have somebody convicted of a violent offence in a pub to be banned from those premises.
Mr Mainland's attacker, Mounsey, will be breaking the law if he goes into the Cross Axes during the next 12 months.
He was made subject to a curfew between 6pm and 6am for 13 weeks, fined £100 and ordered to pay £430 compensation to Mr Mainland as well as £145 costs.
Licensing sergeant for Hyndburn, Blackburn with Darwen and Ribble Valley, Jason Middleton said: "The police encourage all responsible licensees to attend their local Pubwatch meetings as it demonstrates good management and a commitment to ensuring their premises are a safe environment for people who want to go out and enjoy themselves.
"Working together, the pubs can collectively ban those people who cause problems, allowing others to socialise without fear of trouble.
"The police work alongside our local Pubwatches with the sole intention of making our pubs and town centres safer places for people to visit."

FOXBOROUGH — The Patriots had four picks remaining when the NFL draft resumed Saturday, and the first selection came early in the fourth round thanks to Thursday night's trade with Minnesota.
New England used the 102d overall pick on wide receiver Josh Boyce of Texas Christian. Four hours later, with the 226th pick, the Patriots opted for Illinois defensive end Michael Buchanan, and with their final pick, at 235, the Patriots took Rutgers linebacker Steve Beauharnais.

Competition is steep for this year's District 6 State Senate election. and now includes more Republican territory in Sandy Springs and Buckhead. Incumbent State Sen. Doug Stoner (D-Smyrna) has three Republicans vying to be his competitor in the November election.
Smyrna-Vinings Patch sat down with one of the candidates to hear his thoughts on the issues facing District 6. Drew Ellenburg is a fifth generation Atlantan who attended Marietta High School and started his first furniture business in Smyrna. He and his wife Mary Elizabeth live in Buckhead with their two children.
Why He's Running: "About a year-and-a-half ago, I just got fed up with government and I said I'm going to run for the highest possible position that I can run for and I'm going to put my own money into it. I'm not going to take any money from lobbyists. I'm going to do it the old fashioned way."
The Economy: "Our surrounding states, Tennessee has zero (personal income tax). Florida has zero, so we're wedged in between two states that are getting a lot of jobs—a lot of corporate jobs. And a lot of the reason is our personal income tax is so high.
"I believe we've got to lower our personal income tax and I don't think you lower it from six (percent) to zero quickly. You do an extended plan. Maybe a five-year plan or maybe an eight-year plan and you drop it a point or maybe half a point. You really work in to getting that personal income tax lowered. Then you have to offset it because you have to get money in to replace that. For me I think the port could be a great way—that's just an idea I've had as a businessman—you could definitely offset it with tariffs there. I'm definitely for consumption tax. You could offset it with that. Whether that be cigarettes or strip clubs or something of that nature."
"Georgia has an ad valorem tax. I'm in the wholesale furniture business and if I sell my product to a retail store and he buys it in November and doesn't sell the product by December 31, he's got to pay taxes on it twice. The inventory tax then he has to pay taxes on it the second time when he sells it. I think we're not competitive especially at a brick and mortar retail store. We've got to figure out a way to alleviate the ad valorem, or inventory tax. That would be another way I'd like to promote the economy."
Transportation Investment Act: "I don't like the idea of giving government almost a blank check. It's $6.1 billion. I just don't like the idea of giving government a blank check over a long period of time. We have trouble managing our only toll road. I thought that was going to be given back to us. So I have distrust."
"Frankly I'm not for light rail. You get less than three percent of the population that ride rail. Rail is for big cities. Not saying we're not a big city, but we're a sprawled out city. You need more of a dense city like Chicago or Boston or New York.
Atlanta is too sprawled out and I just think it's too expensive. Look at MARTA. We have to subsidize MARTA to keep it going. For me it's not the right time. It's not the right time to add another percent to the taxpayers. Timing is the issue."

The Buccaneers announced they signed third-round pick Myron Lewis to a four-year contract on Monday.
Lewis, the 67th overall pick, is expected to compete for the nickel cornerback job and could eventually replace Ronde Barber as the starter in the base defense. Lewis played in 46 games during his career at Vanderbilt and made 170 tackles to go along with 10 interceptions, which tied for the ninth-most in school history.
In PFW's 2010 Draft Preview, personnel analyst Nolan Nawrocki wrote that Lewis has "the type of length, speed and natural ball skills coveted at the next level, though some teams could be turned off by his finesse playing style."

I cannot believe PAUSD officials; they are working at the speed of my turtle. I believe it has been over a year that the District was found guilty of charge by the OCR, and they still do not figure out that the "Steps to Respect Program" is not working. I believe that is the one they had at the schools where the violation of rights of students occurred, and they still have the same program. How many more OCR, investigations is going to take for Skelly to open his eyes and really say "we have a problem" and we need to really tackle it, not just pretend. As long as we have the same people who violated our students rights, things are not going to change, because we are not sending a message to the rest of the principals and staff. That is exactly why bully continues, when some of our innocent and not so innocent students bully others; we do nothing, but pretend to do it and the bullies or aggressor do not really get the message that this is wrong.Therefore, they do not get the help they need either. PAUSD I can see that again, you are ignoring.
Again PAUSD wants to pretend to be doing something, and wants to be public so the parents who do not know abut these programs, say " Wow, I am impressed and drop the ball. Then back to regular business.
on Jun 10, 2013 at 2:13 pm
How much longer do we have to tolerate Mr Skelly and his ineptitude, to say nothing of his lassitude? he is to doing his job, and does not deserve a paycheck for work he does not do.

[Portion removed by Palo Alto Online staff.] I can tell you that as a person who deals with Palo Alto Kids and Parents on a daily basis for a living: You all need to know the truth and that is about 95% of the parents in Palo Alto could care less about all these issues. They have payed millions to live in Palo Alto for the education and just want a great education for their kids and worry about grades, sports etc....Their own kids.
I have never once in my 16 years had a parent come up and complain that another child is being bullied etc... Parents worry about their own kids and when they are done with PA schools they disappear.
Some people in Palo Alto have way to much time on their hands!!! Getting kinda comical now. Education takes a village for sure but bottom line education starts with individual passion and effort. All these excuses for failure get old after awhile!

"What wisdom can you find that is greater than kindness?" – Jean Jacques Rousseau Welcome to Bhubaneswar, the City of Temples – a city that boasts of a million population dwelling in accommodations ranging from slums to luxurious apartments. There are also fellow citizens that don't have a home to call their own. They live out there on the streets deprived of their family in their old age, for reasons unknown. So what if life has rendered them destitute in the Lord's Abode! They have a heart large enough to hold kindness that could melt you heart and make you fall in love their random act of kindness. But despite faced with life's tragedy, the homeless has found a way of living – sharing his food with the stray animals. Indeed, stories like this inspire us to be more compassionate and appreciate life as it comes to us. Because if he can smile, we must! Text credit: Sushant Sahoo

MALONE — It may be two months before a Malone developer learns whether he can obtain a zoning variance to pursue building a Microtel Inn and Suites in the village.
The Zoning Board of Appeals has 62 days to make its decision in writing, said Village Attorney Kevin Nichols.
Biz News Ink
The board met for the second time Thursday to discuss an application from Chris LaBarge of CAL Equities LLC, who wants to build a three-story, 63-room hotel at 19 Finney Boulevard, behind Rite Air Pharmacy.
Several neighbors again turned out, questioning the impact the hotel might have on property values and whether the clientele expected to stay there would be the right element to have around local businesses.
Steve Fleury of 15 St. Marks Ave. said his property values would drop by 30 percent if the Microtel is built, although when asked by LaBarge for documentation to back up his claim, he had none.
"Common sense goes a long way," Fleury said, adding that location is the prime indicator of a property's value.
"And having a hotel in the back yard is not a good location," he said.
Jack Fleury said his main concern was for business people working late at night nearby because of the guests the limited-services hotel might attract.
He said busloads of families visiting inmates at the three local prisons would likely be the guests at Microtel because of the cheaper rate compared to a Hampton Inn stay and that business people would have to "lock their doors" because of them.
Paul Hogan wanted to know if a full environmental study had been done, and others asked what the plan is to handle water runoff.
But those issues would be taken up during the next phase of development by the Planning Board, not the Zoning Board.

Rush County taxpayers saved more than $4,000 this past June through the National Association of Counties (NACo) Prescription Discount Card Program. Residents used the discount drug card to fill more than 470 prescriptions.
Rush County residents saved an average of $8.65 per prescription in June. The County has saved more than $580 thousand since it joined the program in 2006, and residents have used the drug card for savings on more than 67 thousand prescriptions.
"The cost of prescription medications is a growing concern for Rush County residents," Rush County Auditor Mary Ann Beard said. "The NACo Prescription Discount Card allows taxpayers to save money on essential pharmaceuticals. The program is cost-free and has saved Rush County residents more than $580 thousand since its inception. It is my hope that this program will continue to benefit taxpayers for as long as possible."
Rush is one of more than 1,400 counties nationwide participating in the program. Nationally, residents of participating counties have saved more than $483 million.
According to NACo, Indiana residents use their discount drug cards more often than any other state. Indiana residents saved more than $630 thousand in June 2013.
The NACo Prescription Discount Card Program is a partnership between participating counties, NACo and CVS Caremark. The program was created in 2005. Participants can save up to 75 percent on some prescriptions. The average savings rate is 24 percent.
Rush County residents can print an ID card at www.nacorx.org. Cards may also be picked up in the Auditor's Office. County residents can call toll-free 1-877-321-2652 or visit www.nacorx.org for assistance with the program.

EPL THREAD - We need to start reccing these things up now that GDTs are back
MLB Playoffs GDT - If you're still interested in baseball, there's Oak @ Det and SF @ CIN tonight. You can talk about it here.MLB Playoffs GDT
Oakland A's @ Detroit Tigers - The Rangers Game Doesn't Start For Another Three Hours AL West Magic Number Countdown Watch Game Day Thread
If you're looking for the worst player in baseball this season Francoeur and Young are the most obvious candidates and right now at least my vote would go to Frenchy. And he's signed for $6.75 million next yearFrom an Aaron Gleeman blog post today.
It also reminded me of Ron Washington and Dusty Baker. These two are oft-mocked for their clumsy in-game managing. They drive iconoclasts crazy with irrational moves: bunting at bad times, refusing to use their bullpen in a smart manner, and so on. Both are able to get the results necessary to keep their jobs. You could assume the Rangers and Reds are incompetent, leaving Washington and Baker's employments as a symptom of systematic failure. But those are two of the best teams in the majors. If they know something about how to evaluate ballplayers, they probably know something about how to evaluate managers, too. It's enough to make you wonder how often we misinterpret managerial moves. When a manager plays the hot hand, is he doing so because he believes in the predictive power of a hot streak, or is he doing it because he knows his players believe in it? Alternatively, perhaps he thinks roles are phooey, but he also knows his relievers believe their preparation and rituals are the keys to their success.From R.J. Anderson's article at BP on evaluating manager's, and figuring out what the manager's job really is.
The Astros' win over the Reds generated the lowest rating, as far as can be determined, in the history of the team's presence on Fox Sports Houston and its predecessor networks. It generated – if that's the word – a 0.05 rating, which means it was viewed by an average audience of 1,092 households. It only generated a measurable rating in four quarter-hour periods, and it was never viewed during any 15-minute period by more than 0.18 percent of the area's 2.1 million TV households.Wow.
Rangers second baseman Ian Kinsler: "He's a good hitter, I'll grant you that, but he might be the worst defensive second baseman in baseball. It's not only the errors he makes, but the plays he doesn't make that don't get called errors because he doesn't get to the ball. They should either stick him in left field or make him a DH."An anonymous scout, quoted in John Perrotto's BP column today.
There have been elite shortstop prospects in recent memory who have been equally devastating at the plate, such as Manny Machado, Hanley Ramirez and the Upton brothers, but they weren't in the same class as Profar defensively. He's the best all-around shortstop prospect since Alex Rodriguez, though I don't think you'll see Profar grow into that same kind of power and they're not particularly similar players.From Ask BA today.
Months after Luhnow tried to lure Keith Law from ESPN and hired Mike Fast from Baseball Prospectus, the new name being heard is Kevin Goldstein, also from Baseball Prospectus. (Luhnow called Goldstein "very well thought-of" while declining to say whether he's joining the Astros; Goldstein, known for extensive prospect reviews and clever, sometimes sassy tweets, responded "no comment" via a direct message on Twitter.)From Jon Heyman's new column. Luhnow pursuing guys like Law, Fast and Goldstein to join his front office might explain why some of the old media types aren't fans of Luhnow.

In this he suggested that sometimes it is useful to be able to expose debug information to the end user, but of course you want to hide it most of the time. I suggested one way to do this is to use a URI association to either display the debug page, or to enable debug page in menus. Is there a better/easier way to allow people to enable the page if needed?

A 62-second commercial for Pantene is getting a lot of play on YouTube. It focuses on gender stereotypes.
The ad, which has aired on TV only in the Philippines, highlights how men and women do things the same way, but the actions are viewed drastically different by others.
For example, in the ad, a man and a woman both spend time touching up in front of the mirror, but the woman is called vain, while the man is called neat.
In the video description, Pantene writes, "Pantene asks everyone to whip away the double standards that hold women back. Because when you stand strong, you shine."
More than four million people have watched it so far. Many have also tweeted positive words of praise to the hashtag #WhipIt. However, a minority of people have also expressed criticism of the ad.
A user by the name if SIKE writes, "I don't like how the video is so negatively skewed against guys. I have to say that men have labels to you know. Double standards go both ways for men and women whether its good or bad. It's just reality."

Editorial: Beach Nourishment Delays In Carolina Beach
- Details
- Published on Wednesday, 17 April 2013 21:42
- Written by Super User
By WILLARD KILLOUGH III
Managing Editor
It's true, as the summer season grows closer the beach nourishment project in Carolina Beach has been delayed and there will be cases where vacationers will see heavy equipment on the beach during their stay.
It's unfortunate, but that's the way the cookie crumbles.
Unlike the rehab project on Snow's Cut Bridge where the contractor has agreed to find a stopping point and return after the summer to complete the resurfacing of the two northbound lanes to avoid summer traffic backups, the beach nourishment project cannot be rescheduled or temporarily put on hold.
The project is part of a larger package of projects in the area including Bald Head Island, Kure Beach and Carolina Beach.
They will continue the work with the hope of being off of the beach by Memorial Day weekend. The project is vital to protection of properties along our shoreline to reduce impacts from hurricane damage. It provides a healthier wider beach for tourists to enjoy and that helps support our tourism economy since the beach is our largest attraction. Some tourists will be inconvenienced but they will not find themselves without access to the beach. They'll have to travel a distance up or down the beach to access the beachfront.
Carolina Beach is currently getting an unprecedented scope of improvement projects. The bridge rehab project and widening of Dow Road with turn lanes combined with the coming beach nourishment project are all welcome and necessary projects. Beach nourishment is out of the control of the Carolina Beach Town Council.
They have to beg for federal money to get the projects done and the Army Corp of Engineers controls the permitting and project management.
The contractor is at the mercy of mechanical issues and good ole Mother Nature when the weather turns bad.
They'll push on and get the job done, but yes there may be heavy equipment and a large pipe on the beach at times until they are done.
There will be a 30-inch pipe running along the beach from the Carolina Beach Fishing Pier south to an area just past downtown Carolina Beach. As the crew works around the clock on the beach, they will move through areas as fast as possible. Those areas will be blocked off with tape. Work should start around the 21st and be finished by May 21st.

Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is a rare form of
breast cancer
. Cancer is the uncontrolled division and growth of cells. As the cancer cells grow, they crowd out healthy cells and interfere with normal body processes. In most cases, the cell growth forms a mass (ie, tumor). However, IBC cells grow in more of a sheet-like shape.
IBC is an aggressive form of cancer that can be hard to detect. It may look like
, which is simply inflammation of the breast. Early diagnosis and treatment are important. The sooner treatment is started for IBC, the more favorable the outcome.
Breast Changes Associated With IBC
Skin changes that resemble the skin of an orange and/or inversion of the nipple may be signs of IBC.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
The exact cause of IBC and all breast cancers is not known.
The average age for women with IBC (59 years old) is lower than that of women with other breast cancers. African American women also have a slightly higher risk of IBC.
Some factors that increase your risk for any type of breast cancer include:
Note: Studies show that most women with known risk factors do not get breast cancer. Many women who get breast cancer have none of the risk factors listed above.
If you have any of these symptoms, do not assume it is due to IBC. These symptoms may be caused by other conditions. As the IBC cells get into the skin and lymph ducts they may cause signs and symptoms such as:
Some of these symptoms are similar to a condition known as
. However, mastitis should respond to
. If it does not, talk to your doctor again right away.
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will also be done. Since IBC develops in a sheet-like pattern instead of lumps, it is hard to find by a breast exam or
If your doctor suspects IBC, she may order:
If cancer is detected, the cancerous tissue will also be tested to look for:
Cancer treatments vary from person to person. Talk with your doctor about the best plan for you. The goal is to treat the IBC locally and to prevent it from spreading and recurring. Common treatment options include the following:
is the use of drugs to kill cancer cells. It may be given in many forms including pill, injection, and via a catheter. The drugs travel through the body in the blood, killing mostly cancer cells. Some healthy cells are killed as well. Chemotherapy drugs for IBC may include:
The timing of surgery can be an important factor in the outcome. Surgical options may include:
Some surgical procedures may also be done to determine if the cancer has spread:
Radiation therapy
is the use of radiation to kill cancer cells. Two main types of radiation may be used:
There are other factors about your specific type of cancer that can affect treatment such as:
It is important to catch IBC as early as possible. If you have any of the symptoms listed above, see your doctor right away. If you are being treated for mastitis that is not responding to treatment, see your doctor again.
Breast exams may help identify changes in your breast such as the "orange-peel skin" effect. For breast exams, the

Cabinet defends pay and pensions reforms
The Government said "pay restraint" had helped protect jobs and its pensions remain "among the very best available" after civil servants announced a strike:
– Cabinet Office spokesman
The Government took the tough decision to freeze public sector pay for two years, while protecting those earning under £21,000 by increasing their pay by at least £250 per year.
Pay restraint has helped to protect jobs in the public sector and support high- quality public services.
In March 2012 we set out our final proposed agreements on pension reform following more than a year of intensive discussions with trade unions.
These reforms will ensure that public sector pensions will remain among the very best available and that they can be sustained for future generations.

I seriously doubt rockfall would cause both hangers to be so perfectly flattened. I suspect a crack climbing purist has enforced his ethics on everyone. It's unfortunate since this testpiece will be harder to back off from if it can not be finished for reason.
If those are big fat Metolius "pig ears" I am guessing you would see hammer marks all over the edges if they had been smashed flat. I looked at the before and after pictures and that was a huge block. It would be way easier to just unscrew the bolts and take the hangers. Wow that is terrifying to think someone could have been killed like a bug underfoot.
It was definitely rockfall. There is rock scarring in the area, a giant swath of destruction below, and the old roof is simply gone.
Looks like they were steam rolled.
Definitely enough rock fell that it would have easily smashed the hangers flat. The chunks of rock scattered below the wall were huge.
Did you climb the new variation Manuel?
"I suspect a crack climbing purist has enforced his ethics on everyone." lol thats one way to put it
Do you guys know if there is a place to just build an anchor here?
yeah the crack takes good gear, although i am a little suspicious of the rock after what happened...

£100,000 worth of cannabis found in Sandon
Updated 11:04am Wednesday 19th February 2014 in News
MORE than £100,000 worth of cannabis was found in a farm's underground bunker in Sandon on Monday morning.
