Democrats Drop Eight Anti-Gun People Control Bills On First Day
And most look oh-so-reasonable
(The Hill) Members of the 113th Congress introduced 10 bills on Thursday relating to gun violence, most of which came from Democrats seeking new restrictions on gun ownership.
The flurry of legislative proposals show that members are likely to push the issue in the wake of the December shooting at a Connecticut elementary school that left 20 children dead.
Carolyn McCarthy, an anti-gun zealot, introduced 4
H.R. 137 and 138 from McCarthy would require people prohibited from buying firearms to be listed in a national database, and would prohibit the transfer or possession of large capacity ammunition clips.
McCarthy's H.R. 141 would require criminal background checks on all firearms transactions at gun shows, which would close the so-called gun-show loophole. Her H.R. 142 would require face-to-face purchases of ammunition, the licensing of ammunition dealers, and the reporting of bulk ammo purchases.
Sounds reasonable. I really do not have a problem with this legislation. Of course, the vast majority of ammo dealers require that people who place orders pick up said orders at licensed firearms stores, just like with gun orders. And the proof is in the details of what the legislation says, and none of them are available to read as of yet on Thomas or at her webpage.
Bobby Rush, Rush Holt, Jim Moran, and Sheila Jackson Lee also submitted legislation. Lee's would raise the eligibility age to carry a handgun from 18-21. I'm sure the young criminals who break the law regarding murder in Chicago will quickly ignore her.
Two freshman Republicans introduced contrary bills that would end federal law requiring that areas around schools be designated as "gun free zones." These bills, H.R. 35 from Rep. Steve Stockman (R-Texas) and H.R. 133 from Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.), are a response to findings that violence in and around schools has increased since the gun free zone law took effect in 1990.
I think some Republican should introduce legislation to disarm all federal agents that guard Democrats, since Dems are so anti-gun. Also, legislation that creates a gun free zone around all Democrat offices. Bet they wouldn't like that!

Sirotkin dismisses de Silvestro as a marketing ploy
Sergey Sirotkin has labelled his fellow Sauber driver Simona de Silvestro as a marketing ploy, dismissing the former IndyCar racer as a threat to his hopes of graduating to Formula One with the Hinwil-based outfit in the future. Silvestro signed with Sauber earlier this year as an affiliated driver, with hopes of becoming the first female to race in Formula One since Giovanna Amati in 1992, completing a second test with the team earlier this week. However, Sirotkin, who at one stage seemed set to be set for a race seat with the Swiss team ahead of this season, before instead being handed a test driver role and being sent back to Formula Renault 3.5, has denied any notion that the...

Stochastic analyses of groundwater flow and transport are frequently based on partial differential equations which have random coefficients or forcing terms. Analytical methods for solving these equations rely on restrictive assumptions which may not hold in some practical applications. Numerically oriented alternatives are computationally demanding and generally not able to deal with large three-dimensional problems. In this paper we describe a hybrid solution approach which combines classical Fourier transform concepts with numerical solution techniques. Our approach is based on a nonstationary generalization of the spectral representation theorem commonly used in time series analysis. The generalized spectral representation is expressed in terms of an unknown transfer function which depends on space, time, and wave number. The transfer function is found by solving a linearized deterministic partial differential equation which has the same form as the original stochastic flow or transport equation. This approach can accomodate boundary conditions, spatially variable mean gradients, measurement conditioning, and other sources of nonstationarity which cannot be included in classical spectral methods. Here we introduce the nonstationary spectral method and show how it can be used to derive unconditional statistics of interest in groundwater flow and transport applications.

Area police -- Medford Police and Jackson County Sheriff's office -- have been looking for Robin Lee Workman, 55, for the last several weeks, according to a press release from the Medford Police.
Workman is wanted on several felony warrants and is a suspect in several crimes being investigated by the two agencies.
At 2:31 p.m., police surrounded a home in the 600 block of South Holly Street, where police believed Workman to be at.
As officers were attempting to make contact with people inside the home, Workman jumped out of the window and started running.
Two officers followed him as he ran south on Holly Street.
A 25-year-old man that lived on Holly Street saw the foot chase as it headed toward him.
Police say the bystander ran across the street and began to block the suspect's path.
His effort slowed Workman down and officers were able to arrest him without further incident.
When police searched Workman, they found a switch-blade knife in his pocket. Police found methamphetamine in his home.
Police arrested him on two theft warrants, a criminal mischief warrant and parole violation warrant and on the suspicion of possession of methamphetamine and being a felon in possession of a restricted weapon.

Survey: Women business owners are risk-takers
Send this to a friend
Women business owners are more willing than the general population to take financial risks, according to a survey released Wednesday.
The survey, "Worth the Risk: Women Business Owners and Growth Capital," compares "expanders," women who currently are seeking, preparing to seek or have sought growth capital, with "nonexpanders," women who never have sought growth capital. It found that women who want to substantially expand their businesses are willing to take the risks necessary to obtain financing, and two-thirds of capital-seekers have been 100 percent successful in previous efforts to obtain the growth capital they sought.
"This study demonstrates that women are moving into the economic mainstream," said Myra Hart, chair of the Center for Women's Business Research, which conducted the survey, and a professor at Harvard Business School.
The women business owners surveyed are more risk-tolerant than women and men in general when saving or investing for their households. More than half of the women entrepreneurs (57 percent) indicated they were willing to take above-average or substantial financial risks compared to just 14 percent of all women and 26 percent of all men who participated in the 2001 Survey of Consumer Finances conducted by the Federal Reserve.
The willingness of the women entrepreneurs to take financial risks is even stronger when considering business decisions, the survey found.
Almost two-thirds (72 percent) of those who expanded their businesses achieved or exceeded their expansion goals, the survey found. Most of those currently seeking capital want it to hire staff (82 percent), expand markets (76 percent), add a new product or service (68 percent), and improve the quality of their product or service (58 percent). The most important reason for wanting to expand was "to increase revenues and profits." This reason received an average rank of 1.4 on a scale from 1 to 4, where 1 was the most important and 4 the least important reason.

The next character creation handout sheet is for Alien characters. I'm considering doing a sheet of ready made aliens (possibly stolen from Star Wars or something), but it seems to me that if a character chooses to play and alien, its because they either already have an image of an alien in their mind, or maybe they want to just roll the dice and see what happens.

Apple floats global music downloads to the tune of $3.4 billionApple's iTunes Music Store is already known to be one of the top contributors to the music industry's bottom line, but a new analysis pegs Apple is bolstering the digital music download market to the tune of about $3.4 billion, or 60 percent of digital revenues.
This week analyst Horace Dediu, writing for Asymco, parsed recent figures from the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI), which represents 1,400 recording industry members across 66 countries. The IFPI reported total music revenues of $16.5 billion for 2012, marking the first growth in music revenues since 1999. Of that figure, $5.6 billion came from digital downloads.
Turning to Apple's iTunes revenues, Dediu estimates that, of the $13.5 billion Apple reported for iTunes revenues, the iTunes Music Store accounted for about $4.3 billion, of which $3.4 billion was paid to music labels. That would amount to roughly 22 percent of iTunes revenue.
Initially introduced as a means to provide easily accessible music for iPod owners, Apple's iTunes Music Store has grown into a juggernaut in the music industry. For years iTunes has been the number one music provider in the U.S., and the storefront reached a milestone in selling its 25 billionth song in early February.
Dediu estimates that iTunes music revenue is growing at about 10 percent, while App Store revenue is growing at around 50 percent. Video and other revenue, Dediu estimates, is growing at around 90 percent.
Historically, Apple has held that the App Store and iTunes Store operate at a break-even rate, as they have largely been just a value-add for Apple's high-margin hardware. Dediu points out, though, that given iTunes increasing revenues, Apple may be generating significant operating margins from software and other iTunes sales.

More mood piece than melodrama, Ralph Fiennes' "The Invisible Woman" brings extraordinary delicacy and cinematic intelligence to the true story of a love affair that Charles Dickens kept secret from the time he met then 18-year-old Nelly Ternan in 1857 until his death in 1870. Told with a finely calibrated poetic obliqueness that draws the viewer into the relationship's gradual unfolding, the film represents a formidable achievement for Fiennes as both actor and director.
Told in flashback, the drama opens years after the author's death, when Nelly (Felicity Jones) has emerged from his shadow, reinvented herself as a lady, and married a schoolmaster (Tom Burke). As her husband's pupils prepare to perform one of Dickens' plays, an elderly local pastor and Dickens' devotee (John Kavanagh) probes the "friendship" she is said to have enjoyed with the famous writer, which unleashes the flood of memories that comprises the story proper.
As the film reminds us throughout, Dickens (Fiennes) was a man not only of the printed page but of the stage as well, a buoyant performer and crafter of occasional theatrical entertainments. That's how he meets Nelly, an actress in a family troupe that includes her mother (Kristen Scott Thomas) and two older sisters (Perdita Weeks, Amada Hale). When he engages them for one of his shows, it's clear that the outgoing Dickens likes all four Ternan ladies but takes a particular shine to the almost Botticellian beauty of Nelly, who responds to his very polite attentions with a mixture of shyness and curiosity.
At this point in his life, Dickens is an enormous literary celebrity, a point made vividly in a scene where he attends the Doncaster horse races and is mobbed like a latter-day rock star. Happy in the limelight and within his prodigious work regimen, he nonetheless is dissatisfied in his marriage to Catherine Dickens (Joanna Scanlan), a large and dowdy matron who has borne him ten children but provides no intellectual companionship.
Given the strictures of Victorian morality, the romantic possibilities between Dickens and Nelly are not quick to blossom. At first they are never alone and Mrs. Ternan almost seems to have extra-sensory perception in running interference for her daughter's reputation. Later, Dickens takes Nelly to the house that his friend Wilkie Collins (Tom Hollander) provides for his mistress, and Nelly emerges scandalized and furious at even the hint that she might partake of such a relationship. At this point, not even a kiss has passed between her and the middle-aged author.
The crux comes in a striking scene exactly halfway through the movie when Catherine Dickens makes a surprise visit to Nelly's birthday party, bearing a piece of jewelry that Dickens' had made for Nelly but that was delivered to her by mistake. By ordering his wife to take the gift to its proper recipient, Dickens is announcing his intentions to both women. Catherine, hurt but stoical, urges Nelly to understand that she will have to share Dickens with the public, and may never be sure which he loves best.
Though Dickens soon sends a letter to the Times in which he announces his separation from Catherine and defends the "spotless" honor of the unnamed young woman with whom he has been linked, there is, for reasons the movie doesn't explain, no chance that he will divorce the one in order to marry the other. Thus does Nelly become that which she didn't want to be: a famous man's mistress. They decamp to France, where they have a son who dies in childbirth. On returning to England, they are caught in a horrific train wreck and Dickens emerges trying to make it seem that he was traveling alone.
The fascination of this story has much to do with the way it is told. In Fiennes' handling, very little is stated in a straightforward or obvious way. It's almost as if he took Abi Morgan's screenplay (adapted from Claire Tomalin's book) and stripped away its most utilitarian dialogue, leaving only hints and suggestions of emotions that then must be fleshed out by the actors. The method, whatever its source, makes for a narrative that's constantly evocative, mysterious, almost impressionistic, and that involves the viewer in the pleasurably engrossing game of puzzling out the characters' aim and motives, especially in the early parts of the story when the lovers' attraction is conveyed through only the most subtle of looks and gestures.
The success of this gambit entails a range of fine performances, especially in the lead roles. Bewigged and whiskered, Fiennes creates an exuberant portrait of Dickens that encompasses his vanity and selfishness as well as his bounteousness and thirst for life. As Nelly, the luminous Jones conveys the young woman's mix of awe, intoxication and anxiety as she is drawn inexorably into the orbit of a powerful older man. Among the terrific supporting cast, Scanlan deserves special commendation for her work in showing Catherine Dickens' dignity and grace in heart-rending circumstances.
"The Invisible Woman" is one of those evanescent conjurings of a bygone time in which every part serves the whole. The most entrancing and persuasive evocation of Victorian England offered in any recent film, it reflects superb work on the parts of many contributors including cinematographer Rob Hardy, production designer Maria Djurkovic, costumer Michael O'Connor and editor Nicolas Gaster.

Spring is right here, and it's time to head to your neighborhood nursery or garden heart to discover this yr's newest annuals and perennial standbys to spruce up your gardens. In the Buffalo, New York spot, you have a wide variety of family members owned and operated greenhouses to decide on from – right here are some that I have utilised for my own garden purchases.
Finally you need to have made a decision no matter whether or not you program to property aquatic lifestyle like fish and vegetation in the pond. Now that you have all of these conclusions produced and you program is formulated, you need to decide on what development medium you'll construct your pond from.
Though much is produced of the dreaded "pond scum", with the natural ecosystem of our ponds, there is extremely little of this to deal with. I eliminate about a pint right after the closing rinsing.
Privately owned because 1962, Shady Lakes is no for a longer time a bait farm. They have drinking water lily gardens and also do on-website Pond Maintenance at your residence in the Albuquerque, New Mexico spot. Fishing ponds are stocked with trout each two weeks in the course of the Spring and Summer season.
That is a aspiration pond garden for absolutely everyone. Even so, most individuals think that owning this sort of kind of pond and waterfall only adds anxiety and headache. The upkeep needed could be problematic and wearisome as the materials and remedies need to enhance the fashion and the general health of the pond.
Shady Lakes is closed in the course of the Winter. They are open up weekends in February from 10am to 5pm. March and April they are open up from 10am to 5pm. May possibly through Mid-August they are open up each day from 8am to 6pm.
Install a Bottom Drain. This will show extremely valuable in the future especially if you are constructing a larger pond. Take the changing of the liner situation. To do this you will need to vacant all of the drinking water and just imagine how time consuming and bodily difficult it would be if you experienced to do it by hand. Of course you could make investments in wet vac or pond vac, but possessing a drain mounted in the 1st place will save you a great deal of time and money. This will also come in helpful when shifting a specified share of your pond drinking water when you do your pond upkeep periodics.

Original Xbox kicks bucket
If you're still content with your original Xbox, Microsoft has some sad support news for you. original_xbox Microsoft's original Xbox: ah, the memories... From today, service repairs on an original Xbox for which the warranty has expired will no longer by accepted by Microsoft. If, by some miracle, your original Xbox is …
LOL, are you serious?
Microsoft dumped support for the original Xbox (and dumped on Xbox owners), the day they launched launched the 360.
I think it's safe to expect Microsoft to dump on 360 owners, the same day if any followup console appears (and that's a big IF considering the massive losses Xbox has accumulated over the years)
The King is dead...
... long live the King!
Twice as good as the the PS2 with games twice as good, it really never fulfilled its potential.
Still, it was a good springboard for the 360 and generation leadership. No, the Wii is not current generation, is a Cube with fancy controllers, it belongs to the last generation.
Good for me and...

Whenever a new Bible translation comes out, questions arise about
changes to familiar passages. I was pleased to see the CEB use the word
"disciple" to refer to the mysterious young man who appears in Mark 14:51-52,
after the 12 disciples desert Jesus and run away.
The gospel in seven words
We use flippancy and
irony to shield ourselves from feeling. We relegate love to the
realm of the romantic and sentimental, and dismiss it.
Got your own summation of the gospel in seven words or fewer? Add it as a comment to this post.
"Occupy Wall Street may not come up with solutions, but at
least it is asking the right questions in a nonviolent setting," says Shane Claiborne. "I don't believe
that love can be forced, but I believe it can be provoked."
A Christian critique
The emphasis on patients' rights and autonomy has been a weak remedy for medicalized death.
Parents are the largest factor in whether youth remain religiously active as young adults, according to the National Study of Youth and Religion. When parents talked about faith at home, were active in their congregations, and attached great significance to their faith, 82 percent of their children were highly religious in their mid to late twenties. Two-thirds of young adults raised by black Protestant parents and one half of those with conservative Protestant parents had high or moderate levels of religious commitment as young adults. Seventy percent of young adults raised by mainline Protestants showed minimal or lower levels of religious commitment (Huffington Post, October 29).

Encore, Associated Press
NEW YORK — The man widely known as "Big" gets even bigger: He's playing J.P. Morgan, one of history's towering business magnates.
It was one of Morgan's businesses that funded the Titanic, and Chris Noth appears in a supporting role in "Titanic: Blood and Steel," an epic 12-part miniseries about the building of the great ship. It premieres on six consecutive nights, with two episodes airing back to back, on the Encore cable network beginning Monday at 8 p.m. EDT.
Noth says the idea of playing Morgan intrigued him.
"He's sort of maligned today," Noth says. "But two times in our history he saved our banking system from falling apart and saved the country from bankruptcy and depression. He was a patriotic man. But he liked to make money, too.
"It was fun to come into this film and remind people whose wallet it was that was building the Titanic," says Noth. "Morgan wanted the ship done right and he wanted it safe. But the bureaucracy below him equivocated a lot."
Everyone knows the resulting tragedy. But that familiar outcome looms just beyond the final fade-out of "Titanic: Blood and Steel," itself the largely untold story of how the ship came to be.
Also appearing is Derek Jacobi ("The King's Speech, "The Borgias") as Lord William Pirrie, chairman of the Harland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast, Ireland, where the ship was built.
Kevin Zegers ("Gossip Girl") stars as a young scientist who raises questions about the safety of the ship. Neve Campbell ("Party of Five") plays an American journalist reporting on the ship's maiden voyage. And Alessandra Mastronardi ("To Rome with Love") stars as a copyist who, thanks to her skill and perseverance, prospers even in this patriarchal age.
"The film celebrates the complex nature of the project, and all the people who wanted it to happen," Noth says. "This was an industrial age at the advent of new technology. There was a flowering of unions. Meanwhile, there were social issues, including the Catholic-Protestant conflict."
Filming his scenes in summer 2011, Noth sports a bushy, Morganian mustache which, he confides, was artificially applied. "I don't think I have the hormones to grow one like that," he jokes.
But he was denied one makeup touch: the purple, outsized nose that plagued Morgan, caused by a chronic skin disease.
"His nose was a cross between W.C. Fields' and Jimmy Durante's," Noth says, "and I wanted it for the part. But we didn't have time to make it."
Even before J.P. Morgan, Noth has made a TV specialty of important-guy roles that don't necessarily claim lots of screen time.
He was the intermittently seen but somehow ever-present Big on HBO's "Sex and the City" (as well as in two movie versions of the series).
And now he's starting his fourth season as Peter Florrick, a powerful pol (and the philandering husband of series star Julianna Margulies) on "The Good Wife."
As a key but recurring character on that CBS legal drama, Noth says the routine beats his old gig, playing a series lead on "Law & Order" and, later, "Law & Order: Criminal Intent."
"At this point in my life, I like the security of a job," says the 57-year-old actor, "while still having time for my young son and to pursue other creative work."
For instance, he's recently made two indie films — "3, 2, 1 ... Frankie Go Boom" and "Lovelace."
"I just played a cocaine-addicted ex-TV actor in one, and a mafia guy involved in porno in the other," says Noth. He may be best-known as a TV series Bigshot, "but I do a lot of other stuff under the radar."

The rumors that KimYe are eager to start a family have been poppin' for months now, almost since they first started dating. Now it's looking like Kim has started to take the necessary steps.
In the past year Kim Kardashian has gotten engaged and married, filed for divorce, and began house hunting with new beau Kanye West. But it seems things aren't moving fast enough for the reality star.
In Touch can exclusively reveal that Kim has taken a big step in her quest to conceive — she's quit her birth control!
"Kim is ready to have babies and talks about it all the time," reveals a Kardashian insider to In Touch. And since she's been on the pill for around 15 years, reports another source, Kim, 31, is taking "the necessary measures" to make it easier to conceive.
And Kanye, 35, is not being shy about how he feels about Kim getting pregnant either! Hitting Manhattan hotspot PHD with Leonardo DiCaprio on August 3, Kanye "didn't even look at girls," says an eyewitness to In Touch. Instead, he jumped in the DJ booth and debuted three new songs … including one titled "Perfect B!tch" that mentions his "future wife," Kim, and proclaims he wants her to have his babies.
This seems so rushed, considering she's still not divorced from her doofus ex. What do you think? Is life too short to be worried about "little details" like that? Are you excited about the idea of KimYe having a baby or is it a bad idea?
On a side note — birth control is a pretty sensitive topic, and while we saw Kim discuss it on TV when she and Kris were doing her show we gotta wonder who is running their mouth to the media about this one. Kimmy Cakes it might be time to get you a new gynecologist!

Here comes the left-hander ...
Most teams have at least one. But two teams have none. The beauty of the lefty reliever is in the eye of the beholder, writes Jerry Crasnick.
Originally Published: April 8, 2006By Jerry Crasnick | ESPN.com
NEW YORK -- The New York Mets were threatening in the seventh inning of their season opener against Washington when Cliff Floyd, a left-handed hitter, stepped to the plate with malice aforethought. As instinctively as breathing, Nationals manager Frank Robinson walked out of the dugout and signaled to the bullpen for lefty Joey Eischen.
Four pitches and a couple of hellacious sliders later, Floyd hit a weak grounder to third base, and the threat was history.
The broadcasters working the game might have called the sequence a textbook case of "playing the percentages." Floyd, not surprisingly, is tired of being singled out for such attention late in the game. His .279 career average against lefty pitchers is respectable enough. But he's encountered enough weird arm angles and deceptive deliveries to last a career.

Beanstalk Data announced today it will integrate its CRM Marketing Master platform into NCR's restaurant POS systems.
Beanstalk Data's SaaS platform allows brands to connect multiple silos of customer data into one database where they can segment customers, launch targeted multi-channel campaigns, and analyze results in real time.
Beanstalk Data will initially integrate with NCR Aloha POS using a site-based integration, while in parallel developing its solution for deployment via NCR Cloud Connect. Cloud Connect is a hosted infrastructure that will allow third parties to integrate, maintain and deploy their solution across NCR's Aloha, Radiant POS and Advanced Restaurant System platforms.
"The secret sauce of the Beanstalk Data platform is our ability to execute real-time marketing actions based on the vast interactions the consumer has with the brand. Integrating with the point-of-sale is critical to making this happen," said Scott Nowokunski, CEO of Beanstalk Data, in a company press release.
"As the leading provider of technology to the restaurant industry in the U.S., NCR is committed to bringing a wide variety of in-house and third-party SaaS based marketing providers to our customers, adding more value to their businesses," said Paul Langenbahn, president, NCR Hospitality, in the release. "Using this new integration platform, our customers can choose the technology that is the best fit for their operations and for delivering exceptional experiences to their guests."

"ALANA!"Vordial was furious.
"Yes!"Alana asked jumping out of her chair.
"I asked you a question,"Vordial gave her his famous "death stare".
Vordial looked like a sweet old man, with his pretty blue eyes and all, but when it came dow to school he was probably the most strict teacher in the whole entire galaxy!
"I- uh,"Alana sighed,"I wasn't listening,Master Vordial."
"Day dreaming?"
Alana looked at the floor and shook her head.
"Ah!You were sitting idle,eh?"
"Not really-"
"Lunch break!"Vordial told the class.
The whole class made their way to the door.
"Alana, you will stay here,I have to talk to you."
Alana took her seat again and tried to ignore her growling stomach.
"Alana, you have shown great talent,"Vordial began to say.
"Obviously, I mean to have skipped 2 levels at the temple?I never heard that before!"Alana thought to herself.
"But you haven't been paying much attention to your classes lately,"Vordial continued to say.
"Not my fault you teach stuff I know!"Alana thought to herself,if she didn't know what Vordial was capable of doing, she would have told him what she was thinking.
"If you know so much then I believe that it is time to leave you alone for a week."
Alana gasped,"What am I suppose to do for the whole week?"
"I have talked to the council and they thought it would be a good idea that you monitor the Chancelor's office for the week,"Vordial explained.
Alana was half scared, half excited.A whole week of protecting Palpatine's office?By herself?It would be an awesome adventure if someone tries to attack the Chancellor and Alana must save him!But what if the threat is too big?What if she fails?What on earth will the Jedi do to her?Could she continue her training or would she be expelled from the temple?
"I just received news that another Padawan will be joining you on this mission,"Vordial said.
Alana had been so lost in thought that she hadn't noticed that Vordial had been talking with Mace Windu and a boy.
"His name is Jax,"Vordial said he put his hands on the boys shoulders.
Alana looked at the boy, he had brown eyes and wavy light brown hair.
"Hi,"Alana said.
"Whats up?"Jax replied.
Alana figured he was about her friend Samelo's age, 13.
"Well you two better start packing cause you are both leaving first thing tomorrow!"Vordial told them.
The 2 padawans then left the room and began to talk about their mission.
Little did Alana know that this trip would change her life forever.

Since June 8th, when the National Assembly removed Velázquez Alvaray from his position, there has been no word on his whereabouts. On Monday, his lawyers would not disclose the place where Velázquez Alvaray is, but did argue that Disip is monitoring the house of Velázquez Alvaray -also a former lawmaker- and his family, both in Caracas and southwestern Barinas state.
They have even received threatening phone calls that their assets will be seized.
Velázquez Alvaray's attorneys insisted that a court issued a bench warrant against the former justice.
