Special needs shake-up is on the cards
8:00pm Wednesday 23rd May 2012 in Education By Kelly Buckley
PARENTS of children with special needs are bracing themselves for the biggest shake-up of the education system in 30 years.
Children's minister Sarah Teather said by 2014, parents will be given control over their children's special educational needs budgets, allowing them to choose expert support rather than local councils being the sole provider.
She said this will stop parents being pushed from pillar to post in a battle between different authorities and agencies.
However, there is concern the draft legislation, which contains proposals to merge categories of special needs, would see many children removed from the special education register altogether.
We spoke to parents and teachers across Essex to get their views and find out what else needs to be done.
Jayde Soper, from Basildon, says she was so frustrated by the lack of support provided for her son Finley, who has Aspergers, she took him out of mainstream education and is now tutoring him at home.
She feels the situation could worsen for children with a "less visible" special needs, if the new measures mean they are given less help.
She said: "My son is intelligent and speaks and looks like any other child. But he has these special needs, meaning he has no social skills, cannot make eye contact and needs a bit of extra attention, like help to write things in his planner.
"These things were not happening and, as a result, he was not doing his homework and receiving detentions and be made to sit in isolation. A child with Aspergers cannot be made to sit in isolation.
"The mainstream school system is no good for children with special needs. There are so many supply teachers who come and go – how can a child with Aspergers bond with their teacher if they are always changing?
"I'm in a fortunate position where I work at home, so I have been able to home tutor my son, but it was hard at first.
"However, he is doing so well and there is such a difference now in the way he wakes up in the morning and his enthusiasm for learning that I would not go back."
Gary Smith is the headteacher of Market Fields School in School Road, Elmstead Market, Colchester, a day special school for children and young people between the ages of five and 16 who experience moderate learning difficulties. It also has enhanced provision for pupils with autism.
He feels the new plans to "give some parents a shopping trolley" in respect of their children's special needs budgets could mean the "disadvantaged are even more disadvantaged".
He said: "There are pros and cons to everything. The system isn't working, but changes need to start from the bottom.
"You get these do-gooders who want to come in and make these changes. I don't believe the changes that are actually needed have been identified.
"There are some parents who find it hard to accept their child is different and has special educational needs. Ignorance exists about what special needs actually are.
"I've been teaching since 1981 and at this school since 1989, so I've been around long enough to say this. I went into education because I believe its supposed to be a leveller. Before I draw my last breath I want to make that change."
About 21 per cent of schoolchildren in England were identified as having special educational needs in January 2010. More than half of the pupils, 11.4 per cent, are in schools which receive no specific extra money to help.
Under the new plans, some parents would have the right to a personal budget for their child's support, and local authorities and health services would be required to ensure services for disabled children and young people were jointly planned and commissioned.
Managing the budgets will be optional for parents, and the Government will try out a number of different approaches, either giving money to parents directly or leaving the budgets with the local authority.
In a statement, Mrs Teather said: "Thousands of families have had to battle for months, even years, with different agencies to get the specialist care their children need.
"We also have a situation where a lot of children are not being identified early enough and actually may turn up later in the criminal justice system.
"If we don't support children properly, particularly those with speech and language problems, we often find they fall out of education and then create all sorts of problems later for themselves and for others."

personally i would like at least 1 key worker for the duration of my childs education (not meeting new people every 5 mins and having to explain your whole life story over and over) and they could help manage my childs care plans and budgets....this just feels like the government are once again passing the buck, they need to ensure children and parents deal with a small group of the same people for a sustained period so everybody involved can build a bond and understanding of the childs personal needs....not be passed from pillar to post and given an even bigger burden of responsibility.

Amersham youngsters' bare-faced cheek leads to police warning
11:10am Friday 28th December 2012 in News By Andy Carswell, Reporter
TWO youths have been given police warnings after reports passers-by were being 'mooned' at in Amersham.
They were slapped with Anti Social Behaviour Contracts by officers because of their actions of exposing their backsides to people walking past them near the Community Centre in Chiltern Avenue.
Complaints were also received by police of lasers being shone into people's eyes in the same area of Amersham.
The town's Neighbourhood Policing Team has said it will be "dealing robustly" with anybody committing any further offences.

Just read Noonan piece perpetuating GOP myth that @BarackObama is treated w/ kid gloves. Studies show opposite is true: bit.ly/12C9PXL—
Ben LaBolt (@BenLaBolt) February 09, 2013
What did Peggy Noonan write that has the Obama campaign's Ben LaBolt playing the PolitiFact home edition? Noonan wasn't impressed with Steve Kroft's swooning "60 Minutes" tongue-bath of the president and Hillary Clinton, an embarrassing spectacle that Twitter quickly rebranded as "60 Shades of Gray." Even Fox News political analyst Kirsten Powers, a Democrat, declared it nothing less than an example of "state-run media."
Noonan piles on in her new column, calling Kroft's interview "a truly scandalous example of the genre. It was so soft, so dazzled, so supportive, so embarrassing."
Peggy Noonan today eviscerates Steve Kroft interview of Obama and Clinton on 60 Minutes as "shameful" and "fawning" online.wsj.com/article/declar…—
Michael Barbaro (@mikiebarb) February 09, 2013
Noonan: So God Made a Fawner on.wsj.com/UGWQ4Z via @WSJ Peggy Noonan pays respect to Paul Harvey, Slams Stever Kroft. Good job!—
Elizabeth Scalia (@TheAnchoress) February 08, 2013
But was Kroft's interview business as usual for the mainstream media? LaBolt says "studies" prove otherwise. Those studies turn out to be one study published by the Pew Research Center last April. The focus of that study was the media's propping up of Mitt Romney at the expense of Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich following Romney's primary victory in Michigan. What does that have to do with Obama and the kid glove treatment? The study found that "the media have been treating [Obama] more as a presidential candidate than a chief executive for months. Since November, nearly two-thirds (63%) of the coverage about Obama were framed around political strategy and momentum."
Whoa, harsh! In covering the campaign, the press at times treated Obama as a candidate. Take that, Noonan. Myth? Busted.
@BenLaBolt @BarackObama Nobody buys that for a minute. Nice try.—
KCFrew (@KnoxvilleKC) February 09, 2013
I don't blame them for doing propaganda—that's what White Houses do. But it's hard not blaming Mr. Kroft and 60 Minutes for being part of it—

DECATUR, Ala.-More and more businesses are pouring into the River City and people in Decatur are thrilled with the new shopping and dining options.
A new theater, restaurant, and a shopping hot spot have all opened in the past week and people say they are thrilled with the economic growth and look forward to making a few less trips to Huntsville.
An Art Center recently opened downtown and a Mellow Mushroom opened on Monday. The restaurant is located on 2nd Avenue and further boosts the economic upswing going on in the town. On Wednesday, a brand new Kohl's opened to the delight of shoppers throughout the area and the planning commission recently approved an entertainment district that will encompass 2nd Avenue and Bank Street.
"Oh it's great for our economy. We have needed this for a long time," said Jessica Magnum while dining at the Mellow Mushroom, "[We are] just looking forward to more and more businesses coming on board," she continued.
Gil Aldric has lived in the area for years and says he is hopeful this is only the beginning of the economic upswing.
"Now if we could just get a few more things that Huntsville has got we will be alright," he said, "Mellow Mushroom is going to be a cornerstone for this, I think."
As far as the proposed entertainment district goes, the Planning Commission has given their stamp of approval but the City Council still must sign off on it.

Span br issue
Hello there,
I have designed a small text over the pictures on my site, and I am facing a slight issue. So, I have this picture of a DJ, and over it, text in a span class. Unfortunately, I had some issues with the span when placing a border onto it, so I solved it with two span id's, firstline and secondline, because the borders were messed up slightly. There was no right border on the first line, and no left on the second line, so that plays a trick, but now I found that on the right outside of the second line, there is no border... again. Nametext is just a define for a custom font, while dj-andyrobinson defines the image and the margins associated with it, both of which work ok for now.

I can't see any way to do it in CSS, given your requirement that it overlays an image. If you could have a white background inside the box then it's possible, by giving the first  {position:relative; top:1px; background:white;} and leaving the top border on the second , which pulls the top span down by 1px so that it covers up the top border of the second . Of course, that only works when you know which line of text is going to be longer.
I would say your two options are: (1) put the text in a
 and have a rectangular box surrounding the whole lot, or (2) incorporate the text as part of the graphic with the border that you want.

Alright, I see, I'll try making a div then in such case and see what the result will be like. I thought that this might be one of the ways out of this, however I did not want to suggest it, I thought it maybe possible to fix my code.
Thanks for your reply.

Macy brings more than 25 years of experience working with children and a passion for seeing families and children grow in their relationships with God. Her focus as associate pastor will be expanding and supporting Bartlett Chapel's ministry to children and families in the church.
"I believe that all children should have the opportunity to develop a relationship with God," Macy said. "Especially in today's society, families need encouragement to live out their faith, and I believe we can provide that support at Bartlett Chapel UMC."
Macy previously served at Old Bethel United Methodist Church, Columbia City United Methodist Church, and South Whitley United Methodist Church.
She received a master's in spiritual formation from Associated Mennonite Biblical Seminary in Elkhart and was ordained as a deacon in the United Methodist Church in 2010. She earned a bachelor of arts degree from Valparaiso University.
She spent her formative years in Columbia City, where she married Kevin Macy.
They have three children: Brenden (Natalie) Macy, Karlee Macy, and Carissa Macy. They moved to Plainfield in 2009 for Kevin's job.

Filling baby bottles and treating disease... these are the habits of Abbott. Abbott Laboratories is a top health care products manufacturer. Its nutritional products division makes such well-known brands as Similac infant formula and the Ensure line of nutrition supplements, while its drug division sells branded generic medicines (such as antibiotics and gastroenterology medicines) in international markets. The company also makes diagnostic instruments (including tests and assays), vascular medical devices such as its Xience drug-eluting stents, and the FreeStyle diabetes care line, as well as eye care products. Abbott spun off its non-generic pharmaceutical operations into AbbVie in 2013.
Geographic Reach
Abbott's products are sold in about 150 countries. The company earns about 40% of revenues in the domestic market, with the remainder coming from countries including Japan, the Netherlands, Germany, France, Italy, and Canada. Abbott is working to grow sales in emerging markets such as Brazil, China, India, and Russia.
After more than a year of planning, Abbott separated its medical and pharmaceutical operations in January 2013 by distributing shares of the newly public AbbVie to its shareholders. Flatly put, the split separated Abbott's stable business from its riskier operations -- while the AbbVie pharma operations accounted for roughly 45% of Abbott's revenues, its R&D work was inherently more expensive and riskier, and a number of its commercial products face patent expiration over the next few years.
The Abbott name sticks with the businesses that previously made up its diversified medical products division, including its nutritional, branded generic pharmaceutical, diagnostic, and vascular businesses. Each unit previously accounted for about 10% to 15% of the company's revenues. The nutritionals business and the generic pharmaceuticals business are the two largest operating segments following the AbbVie spinoff.
Drug-coated stent Xience is one of the company's top products and key to its growth initiatives. The vascular segment makes other devices for coronary, endovascular, vessel closure, and structural heart procedures. Meanwhile, the diagnostic segment's products include point-of-care tests, molecular diagnostic products, and information management systems for diagnostic laboratories.
Abbott also makes diabetic testing products through its Abbott Diabetes Care unit, and it makes equipment for cataract and vision correction procedures (including LASIK equipment) through its Abbott Medical Optics subsidiary.
Sales and Marketing
Abbott conducts distribution operations both from its own distribution centers and from third-party distribution partners. Pharmaceutical and nutritional customers include health care organizations, wholesalers, retailers, government agencies, and third-party distribution entities. Diagnostic and vascular products are sold to blood banks, hospitals, physicians, and commercial laboratories.
Financial Analysis
In the face of multiple challenges, Abbott has remained strong in the global business market in recent years. Revenues increased by 3% to nearly $39 billion in 2012 due to higher sales of nutritional and diagnostic products (as well as the divested proprietary pharmaceutical operations), slightly offset by declines in the established (generic) pharmaceutical and vascular device segments. Abbott's revenue has grown steadily over the past five years.
Abbott accomplished a 26% increase in profits in 2012, after two years of fluctuating net income figures, primarily due to cost-reduction and restructuring initiatives. The company hopes that hiving off future patent expiration losses into the AbbVie spinoff in 2013 will further improve its returns.
Strategy Across the years, Abbott has made acquisitions and strategic alliances (in fields including research and marketing) to bolster its offerings and its geographic presence. After swallowing up several businesses, Abbott reshuffled its organization to help it run like the well-oiled giant it is, conducting job cuts and plant consolidations in the US and Europe from 2010 to 2012.
In the R&D realm, Abbott is hard at work on developing next-generation Xience products that include Xience nano, a version of the product for use in small vessels and Xience PRIME, a next-generation version Xience being tested in a range of sizes including small vessel and long lengths. In addition, Abbott has steadily grown its medical device offerings for other therapeutic applications.
Abbott is also widening its offering of clinical diagnostics tools, including the introduction of laboratory software to boost diagnostic data management capabilities.
Product development has also led to new nutritional product launches, such as new Ensure Complete shakes and Perfectly Simple (gluten and preservative-free) ZonePerfect protein bars launched in 2012. To further bolster the nutritional business, Abbott announced plans to build a new manufacturing plant in Ohio in 2012, as well as to establish a nutritional R&D center in India.
Mergers and Acquisitions
In 2010 Abbott moved to bolster its position in the growing field of laboratory informatics by acquiring Tel Aviv-based STARLIMS Technologies, a provider of laboratory information management systems (LIMS), for about $123 million in cash. STARLIMS began buying out some of its longtime distribution partners in 2012 as part of its efforts to expand its LIMS business in Europe and emerging markets in Latin America and Africa.
The company also acquired several pharmaceutical businesses during 2010. Some of these operations were included in the AbbVie spinoff, while others bolstered Abbott's generic drug manufacturing operations.
The company struck two deals in 2013: Abbott purchased IDEV Technologies, a developer of radiology and surgery-related peripheral devices, for some $310 million to grow in the peripheral technology market. It also acquired OptiMedica for some $250 million to enter the laser cataract surgery market.
The spree continued in 2014 when the company doubled its operations in Latin America and upped its commitment to fast-growing markets by paying around $3 million, including debt, for CFR Pharmaceuticals. The Chile-based branded-pharmaceutical maker has manufacturing facilities in Chile, Colombia, Peru, and Argentina.

Custom Gift Stationery…such a special treat.
One of my favorite items to design, personalize, and package for the recipient.
Especially this dainty theme. The little birds and twigs are my favorite and so is the delicate, pale pinky-ness of it all!
The scalloped cut edge is a special touch too, not something I do often, but it adds so much!
And don't get me started on black and white polka dots and pale pink! Ooooh la la!
You can find these for purchase here or you can contact me for more information.

Motorists will find it more expensive to drive around South Florida roadways in coming years, as a new network of toll lanes takes shape.
The network would extend from Florida City in southernmost Miami-Dade County to Interstate 595 in central Broward, and from Interstate 75 in western Broward to Interstate 95 in east Broward.
One of the main projects we foresee are the managed lanes project, said Harold Desdunes, the Florida Department of Transportations district director of transportation development in Miami, using the formal designation for toll express lanes.
Ananth Prasad, FDOTs secretary, announced the outlines of the project in 2011.
The toll lanes project builds on existing express lanes on I-95 in Miami-Dade that operate between just south of State Road 112 and the Golden Glades Interchange. The system now is being extended from the Golden Glades to Broward Boulevard.
But according to maps and other information provided by FDOT and other transportation officials at a recent meeting, express lanes may be added to several area roadways including the South Miami-Dade Busway, the Homestead Extension of Floridas Turnpike, the entire Palmetto Expressway, parts of I-75 and I-595. And the I-95 toll system now under construction eventually could reach Palm Beach County.
The wider scope of the express lane network recently became clearer when FDOT officials detailed the agencys five-year work plan.
A central component of the Miami-Dade portion of the network is express lanes on the Palmetto Expressway from 836 to I-75, where they would link up with planned express lanes on I-75 to I-595.
There, the lanes would intersect with reversible toll express lanes now being built in the median of I-595 from I-75 east to I-95.
The I-75 planned express lanes also would be built in the median, said Judy Solaun-Gonzalez, senior project manager in Miami-Dade.
The [826] express lanes would connect to the median of I-75, said Solaun-Gonzalez. And we would have a new bridge connecting Palmetto express lanes to I-75 express lanes.
An FDOT map shows express lanes eventually running along the entire length of 826 from Dadeland in the south to the Golden Glades in the north.
Express lanes on the network would charge variable toll rates, depending on congestion.
At a public meeting Nov. 14 at Pinecrest Gardens, Miami-Dade Expressway Authority (MDX) officials detailed their plan to add possible express lanes to the Busway, which runs parallel to U.S. 1.
MDX is conducting a study on possible alternatives to ease traffic congestion along the U.S. 1 corridor, one of which includes express lanes plus construction of overpasses or underpasses at intersections so Busway vehicles can bypass traffic lights.
The Busway plan has drawn criticism from some quarters in Pinecrest Gardens though at the meeting, some people backed the idea of adding express lanes.
This is a good idea, said John Pell, who attended. The east-west traffic will flow more quickly because currently it has to wait a long time for Busway and U.S. 1 traffic to clear the intersections.
Pell said some residents oppose it because they dont want commuters driving through.
Neighborhood leader Holly White said she is concerned that the new toll lanes would bring cut-through traffic into the surrounding neighborhoods.
It could be very dangerous for our children and disruptive to our neighborhood, she said.
More details on the I-75 express lanes project are expected to be discussed during three additional meetings in Broward:
Here is the schedule for the three meetings, which will be held in the board room of the Broward Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) at the Trade Centre South Building, 100 W. Cypress Creek Rd., Suite 850, Fort Lauderdale:
• 2:15 p.m. Monday, the technical coordinating committee meets.
• 6 p.m. Tuesday, community roundtable.
• 9:30 a.m. Dec. 13, open debate among members of the MPO.

Making the Grade, which will run right up until the Belmont Stakes (G1), will focus on the winners of the big races, usually from the previous weekend, who could impact the 2013 Triple Crown. We'll be taking a close look at impressive winners and evaluating their chances to win the 2013 Kentucky Derby (G1) based on factors such as ability, running style, connections (owner, trainer, jockey) and pedigree.
This week we take a look at Itsmyluckyday, who handed champion Shanghai Bobby his first defeat when winning the $400,000 Holy Bull Stakes (G3) on Jan. 26 at Gulfstream Park.
Dark Bay or Brown Colt
Sire (Father): Lawyer Ron
Dam (Mother): Viva La Slew, by Doneraile Court
Breeder: Liberation Farm and Brandywine Farm (Ky.)
Owner: Trilogy Stable and Laurie Plesa
Trainer:Eddie Plesa Jr.
It took an incredible performance to hand 2012 champion 2-year-old male Shanghai Bobby his first career defeat, in fact it took a record-breaking performance. Itsmyluckyday shaved more than half of a second off the Gulfstream Park track record for 1 1/16 miles when he shook free of the aforementioned champion in the stretch of the Holy Bull to win by two lengths. The quality of competition Itsmyluckyday defeated in the Holy Bull, how fast he ran, and how visually impressive he was in victory vaulted him right to the top tier of 2013 Kentucky Derby hopefuls.
Ability: In an era when trainers frequently map out light campaigns for highly regarded horses with extra attention to spacing between races, Eddie Plesa Jr. has let Itsmyluckyday run and run often in his short career. The colt by Lawyer Ron made his ninth start since June in the Holy Bull Stakes and clearly has flourished with the work. His seventh start in a stakes race, the Holy Bull was Itsmyluckyday's fourth stakes victory, all by open lengths. He won the off-the-turf Fasig-Tipton Turf Dash Stakes by four lengths going five furlongs sprinting on a sloppy track at Calder Race Course and came back three weeks later to win the 1 1/16-mile Foolish Pleasure Stakes by three lengths in September 2012 when stretching out in distance for the first time in his career. After unplaced finishes in the Delta Downs Jackpot Stakes (G3) – his first try in a graded stakes – and Dania Beach Stakes on grass, Itsmyluckyday perhaps provided a foreshadowing of his brilliant Holy Bull performance with a dazzling 6 ¾-length romp in the Gulfstream Park Derby going a mile in his 3-year-old debut. He earned a career-best 107 Equibase Speed Figure in that race and bettered it with a 109 in the Holy Bull, most likely earning Itsmyluckyday a short break before his final Derby prep.
"We'll see how he comes out of the race, but I'd lean toward the Florida Derby [March 30]," Plesa said of the next target for Itsmyluckyday. "But he's going to tell me what he wants to do. Then I'll sit down with our partners and we'll discuss it."
Itsmyluckyday had a nice resume entering the Holy Bull, but this record-setting win stamped the colt a true classics contender. Starting from a disadvantageous post, the seven slot, with an extremely short run into the first turn, Itsmyluckyday used his speed to gain an ideal stalking position in third then second behind Shanghai Bobby, who started from the far inside post. Itsmyluckyday had no trouble keeping up through a quick opening quarter and half-mile and when it came time to launch his winning rally, Itsmyluckyday still had plenty of gas in reserve reel in Shanghai Bobby. He then dispatched his elite challenger to pull away for an easy win, finishing the last sixteen of a mile in 6.7 seconds to establish a track record of 1:41.81. In watching the replay several times, what was most impressive was his acceleration on the turn to collar Shanghai Bobby and the way he leveled off in the stretch to overpower the champion. The winning time was more than four-fifths of a second faster than 2011 Travers Stakes (G1) winner Golden Ticket completed the same distance earlier on the card. When a 3-year-old in January outperforms an older, more mature Grade 1 winner, it's time to take notice.
(Click here to view the 2013 Derby Leaderboard)
Running style: Itsmyluckyday's high cruising speed combined with his willingness to rate behind the pace and accelerate on his jockey's cue is a valuable asset when it comes to succeeding on longer, two-turn races such as the U.S. classics. We've seen previous recent Kentucky Derby winners, like Smarty Jones, Barbaro, and I'll Have Another, whose ability to comfortably track close to the leader on the first Saturday in May gave them first jump on their rivals and led to career-defining victories. This type of running style definitely rates a positive for the Derby, and, in fact, all three of the U.S. classics.
Connections: Eddie Plesa Jr. won the 2009 Holy Bull Stakes (run in April that year) with Hey Byrn, who went on to finish seventh in that year's Preakness Stakes (G1). A member of the Calder Race Course Hall of Fame, Plesa has been a fixture near the top of the Calder trainer standings for more than 20 years and has won multiple leading trainer titles. The son of jockey-trainer Eddie Plesa Sr., Plesa Jr. earned his 2,000th career win in April 2012. Plesa Jr.'s top horses in his career include Grade 1 winner Three Ring and multiple graded stakes winner Gottcha Gold, who was the runner-up in the 2007 Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile.
Eddie Plesa Jr.'s wife, Laurie, owns Itsmyluckyday in partnership with Trilogy Stable, the Florida-based racing operation of David and Olga Melin and Marion Montanari.
"Everybody's excited because of the Kentucky Derby. It's hard not to get wrapped up in that," Plesa said. "I know [for] Marion Montanari and David Melin, this is on their bucket list."
Itsmyluckyday has been ridden by four different jockeys in his career. Elvis Trujillo was aboard for the first time in the Holy Bull.

Pedigree: Itsmyluckyday is from the second crop of 2007 champion older male Lawyer Ron, whose best distance was 1 1/8 miles. He won the 2006 Arkansas Derby (G2) and 2007 Oaklawn Handicap (G2), Whitney Handicap (G1) and Woodward Stakes (G1) at that distance, and finished second by a neck to two-time Horse of the Year Curlin in the 1 ¼-mile Jockey Club Gold Cup (G1) in 2007. Lawyer Ron's first crop included Grade 1 winner Drill and graded stakes winner Stealcase, third in last year's Haskell Invitational Stakes (G1). Off to a solid start at stud, Lawyer Ron's second crop is his final one as he died from complications related to colic surgery in July 2009.
Stakes-placed winner Viva La Slew, by Doneraile Court, is the dam (mother) of Itsmyluckyday. Viva La Slew placed in a stakes sprinting when she was two and won a race at a mile. Itsmyluckyday's second dam (maternal grandmother), Viva La Viva, was unraced but his third dam (maternal great-grandmother), Viva Sec, by Secretariat, was a multiple stakes winner sprinting. Notable members from this family include French classic winner Astronomer Royal and 1999 Fountain of Youth Stakes (G1) and Florida Derby (G1) winner Vicar.

GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) - Authorities say a convicted felon has been arrested in Glendale after 12 firearms and about 10,000 rounds of ammunition were found in his Glendale home.
Glendale police say 38-year-old Eric Davis is being held on suspicion of multiple felonies including misconduct involving weapons.
Police say they followed up on a tip about Davis allegedly boasting about being "gun-wielding felon."
They say Davis has been convicted of multiple prior felonies including possession of dangerous drugs for sale and misconduct involving weapons.
Detectives obtained a search warrant for Davis' residence Thursday and say they found assault rifles and semi-automatic handguns plus the ammo.
Police say Davis was arrested without incident and booked into the downtown Phoenix jail. They didn't immediately know Friday whether Davis has an attorney.

I have broken a pin twice in the rotor drive assembly and don't know why. Everything turns very easily and is loose.
Yesterday I had the tractor running about 1/2 throttle, turned on the PTO and it broke the pin through the small chain sprocket.
The pin is the 1/4" x 2" coiled spring (from the dealer) and this pin is taking the full torque of the PTO and transferring the force from the driveshaft to the sprocket. There isn't enough room to use a hardened steel bolt and nut. I took it all apart and there isn't a keyway or anything else engineered. I also noticed that the sprocket slides easily onto the shaft. Should this be a tight fit?
Has anyone else had difficulty with this?

'The Helm is becoming impassable'
A natural beauty spot in Cumbria, is being damaged by vehicles driving off road, performing stunts and churning up the ground.
'The Helm', in Kendal, is a popular walking spot and is an area of outstanding natural beauty.
– Sergeant John Stephens, Cumbria Police
"I am a regular walker on the Helm as are many other members of the community.
"Some areas of the Helm have become impassable, even on foot, because of the selfish behaviour of others.
"Looking at some of the tracks it is obvious there is a real danger of drivers losing control.
"They risk their vehicles turning over, causing serious injury to drivers, passengers and anybody who happens to be in the area.
"It is believed that most if not all of these incidents are occurring during the hours of darkness."
Anybody who sees any vehicles being driven off road onto the Helm is asked to take note of the registration number and contact Kendal Police on 101.

LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) - Quinten Snider scored 20 to lead four Ballard players in double figures, and the Bruins advanced to the semifinals of the Kentucky boys' Sweet 16 state basketball tournament with a 68-53 win Friday over Knott County Central.
The Bruins (31-4) simply out-manned Knott County Central, which relied heavily on its five starters - sixth-man Blake Shrum had only logged one official minute when he was forced in upon Simon Christon's fifth foul less than a minute into the fourth quarter.
Lavonne Holland did much of his damage early for Ballard, hitting a three-pointer 10 seconds into the game to set the pace. He scored 11 of the Bruins' first 15 points, all in the game's first four minutes.
Camron Justice led all scorers with 24 points for the Patriots (30-6).
Ballard will play Montgomery County in the semifinal round Saturday night. Madison Central and Hopkinsville play in the other semifinal.

Slider, not deal, a Maine concern
Mets renew hurler's contract as negotiations stall
JUPITER, Fla. -- John Maine had reason to be upset on Tuesday afternoon, when a flat slider prevented him from pitching as effectively as he would have liked. He also had reason to be upset on Tuesday morning, when salary talks officially stalled and the Mets renewed Maine's contract for the upcoming season.
The slider he can fix. The contract, he can't -- at least not yet -- though his attitude toward that situation was the same.
"I'm not really worried about it," Maine said. "It's still good money. I'll be able to pay off my cell phone bill."
And then some. Exercising a right that clubs reserve with all unsigned players who have between zero and three years of Major League service time, the Mets renewed Maine's contract after the two sides couldn't agree to terms on a new one-year deal.
The process is a reality of baseball economics. When teams avoid signing their youngest players to multiyear deals -- and in most situations, there's no reason for a fiscally-responsible team to even explore that route -- they then attempt to agree with those players on a series of one-year deals. Usually, the numbers are low. Players don't generally earn their first significant raise until they hit three years of service time and become eligible for arbitration.
In Maine's case, he and the Mets simply couldn't agree to a deal. That's not necessarily a sign of unhappiness, as it was with MVP candidate Prince Fielder and the Brewers last week. For perspective, recent years have seen the Mets also renew the contracts of top young players David Wright and Aaron Heilman. Maine's contract was the only one renewed this season -- the Mets agreed to terms with their 12 other eligible players, including Ruben Gotay, Joe Smith, Steven Register and Angel Pagan.
Because Maine didn't agree to a deal, the Mets reserved a right to renew his contract at any price they pleased, provided they paid at least the Major League minimum and they didn't cut his salary by more than 20 percent. Maine made $391,000 last year.
MLB.com coverage | Schedule | Ballpark | Tickets
The Mets did not announce terms of his new deal.
If the situation bothered Maine, he didn't show it during his second Grapefruit League start against the Marlins. Throwing 48 pitches over three innings -- and then another 12 in the bullpen -- Maine allowed his lone run on Jose Castillo's solo homer in the first. Maine said he felt more in command than he did during his first spring outing, though the prospect of harnessing his slider continues to vex him.
"I think I'm just a hair off, still," Maine said. "My slider wasn't all that great. I couldn't put guys away, and that's when they got the hits off me. I didn't have a put-away pitch, but that will come in a couple more starts."

For a moment on Friday, albeit a brief one, Kyle Busch appeared to get choked up.
After a week in which Busch was punished with the modern-day equivalent of being tarred and feathered following his intentional wreck of Ron Hornaday Jr. in the Texas trucks race, one person may have saved him from the lowest point of his career.
That man was team owner Joe Gibbs.
"Was there a point in which I thought, 'Do I have a ride?' Of course there was. Yeah, I thought that," Busch said Friday in front of a room packed full of reporters at Phoenix International Raceway. "Was there a point in which Joe ever told me, 'Hey, we're looking at terminating this?' No."
It was then that Busch's voice began to waver slightly, the emotion tangible in his words.
"Joe has been there and has stuck by my side and has held my arm through this whole deal," Busch said. "I can't say enough about the man sitting next to me."
Busch has plenty of reason to feel grateful to Gibbs, the legendary NFL coach who became a championship-winning NASCAR team owner.
When it appeared Busch's future with Joe Gibbs Racing – and thus his career with a top-tier race team – was in jeopardy this week, it turned out Gibbs was fighting for the driver behind the scenes all along.
Gibbs, a devout Christian who has written a book about winning at the game of life, decided to practice what he preached. He forgave Busch and tried to help the driver through the storm, working to ensure he would have another chance.
"When you're put in a situation like this, you can really make one of two decisions," Gibbs said. "I think the one (firing Busch) would have been devastating and I think really discouraging for everybody associated with Kyle. ... What I've chosen to do, I want to support Kyle and I feel like this could have a positive impact on Kyle.
"I'm committed to him as a person. I like him; we've gone through a lot together."
M&M's, the candy brand owned by the Mars family, wasn't as forgiving of Busch's latest transgression. The company places an utmost priority on its family-friendly image, and it wanted to send a message to Busch that turning another competitor head-first into the wall out of anger was unacceptable.
We don't know yet whether or not M&M's initially wanted to bail on Busch altogether (M&M's will be back on Busch's car in 2012). But we do know the Mars family didn't want to end its relationship with Gibbs himself.
So throughout the week and all the way until late Thursday night, Gibbs and M&M's worked to figure out a solution that was acceptable to both parties.
They concluded M&M's would come off the car for the final two races of the season, replaced by longtime Gibbs supporter Interstate Batteries.
Since there's a very small chance Interstate is paying the same amount as M&M's would have, it's likely Busch is taking a hit in his wallet over the next two weeks as well.
Gibbs declined comment when asked the details of the financial agreement, but said Busch would incur "other financial penalties and stuff that we're working through."
Busch, though, is likely thankful just to still have a job. If Gibbs had decided to fire him, Busch's links to nearly all the upper-echelon NASCAR teams would have been broken.
His odds of finding a competitive ride for next season would have been slim.
And as Busch sat back and had time to reflect this week, he undoubtedly realized Gibbs was his strongest and most loyal supporter outside of his family.
If Busch ever redeems himself in the eyes of NASCAR fans, it will be years from now. He has a long way to go.
But as long as Gibbs stands by him, he at least has a chance.
"There's an opportunity for me to become a better person, to grow and learn from this," Busch said. "I'm looking forward to those days."

Guests at the Craddock-Terry Hotel in Lynchburg will notice something new in their rooms.
While they may look like just a piece of paper, the surface mats guests will find in their rooms and bathrooms, are helping protect against bacteria, viruses and fungi.
It is an idea, Dennis Hackemeyer and Mark Sisson came up with about 2 years ago, called NanoTouch.
"Using nano-technology, the surface attracts microbes and them kills them, 24 hours, 7 days a week," said Sisson, a partner in the company.
From hotels, to helping keep the remote control clean, Sisson explains other ways the surface is used.
"They are used on door handles, a mom could put it in their diaper bag to use in public places," said Sisson. "We're also seeing a great need for these as snack mats in schools."
