Orange Mane 2010 Mock Draft Pick #1
With the first pick in the 2010 NFL draft the St. Louis Rams select....
Ndamukong Suh, DT, Nebraska
My Take
The Rams draft Suh because not only is he the best talent on the board, he's the safest selection on the board. I can't remember the last time a DL came out with his combination of power, quickness, and technique. This is not a guy who has been living off superior athletic talent his whole collegiate career. He brings the total package from day one in the NFL and displays secondary moves that many 3rd and 4th year DLs have yet to develop into effective weapons.
This also allows the Rams to move Adam Carriker out to the more ideal position of strong side end, and gets Jake Long over to the weak side. This Rams organization will not be making any attempts to bring Leonard Little back so not only is this #1 overall pick nearly cap neutral (if there was a cap this year), it also sets up perfectly for Long to have a breakout season in 2010 alongside Suh.

He utilizes excellent hand strength and quickness to control defenders. Suh is often unblockable for one offensive lineman and draws many double teams from opposing offenses. He shows great range to make plays outside the tackle box and is quick to shed blockers to get to the ball. Suh is a disruptive lineman that can create havoc with penetration versus the running game. Suh has developed an expanded pass rush package with counters coming off his initial power move. His production, power, athleticism, technique and versatility make him arguably the best interior defender in this years draft. Suh is a dominating player that projects as an impact defender in his rookie season.
Suh has a supreme blend of power and explosiveness from the defensive tackle spot. Possesses great size and strength to hold up at the point of attack in the running game or bull rush the pocket. Uses his athleticism and instincts to chase down running plays. Highly-competitive performer with a big-time motor. Terrific hand use to disengage against the run. Suhs been a highly-productive and versatile player during his career.
Not many weaknesses in Suhs game. Durability is one minor area of concern. Sustained a knee injury in 2005 which required surgery and resulted in a medical redshirt. Dealt with another knee injury during spring drills in 2007. Did remain healthy from that point forward.

I've never read Days Of Future Past so you'll forgive me if I make any errors. Dealing with present day & a future timeline which causes mutants to live in internment camps. You would think that following the events of X-Men First Class. I would hope that most of the First Class mutants do not return & are out on their own adventures. Except for the obvious Professor X, Magneto, Mystique & Beast. I wouldn't mind a cameo from Banshee or Emma. But not Havok, now here's why. I would hope to introduce a young Scott Summers being trained by Jame's McAvoy's Professor X (Who's now losing his hair) & Beast alongside new students as the present day's X-men consisting of Jean, Warren, Kitty Pryde & Bobby. There by fixing First Class's mistake of an older Alex Summers.
Much like the story line of Days of Future Past we could see Magneto & Mystique training the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, I would REALLY love to see Wanda & Pietro. Not knowing that Magneto's their father of course. As I've been waiting for it forever! The Brotherhood should consist of a mash up of Magneto's & Mystique's Brotherhood like in the actual DOFP story & to stay within the lines of continuity from the original comic story line. Meaning we could see all sorts of mutants from the first or second Brotherhood. If Rogue does get introduced like in the comic she would obviously defect to that of the X-Men... eventually.
Now of course from what I understand an older version of Kitty Pryde from the bleak future where Sentinels rule the United States could be introduced who can come back in time to warn the team about the future with the present Brotherhood of Evil Mutants getting in their way to stop & defeat them. I would think an older version of Kitty should be cast due, to possible confusion of the general audience. Or would that confuse them even more? You would think her older self travelling back to the past & going into her younger body would be more confusing. But what would be more confusing or less confusing?
There's a lot of talk about old actors returning to their old character roles from Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen & Now Hugh Jackman (Unconfirmed ATM) It's clear where they'd all fit. Except for Wolverine. I would assume Jackman's Wolverine could be from the future. As to where Stewart or McKellen could fit in. Could they take the place of the future Kitty & return to the past to confront McAvoy & Fassbender to do what Kitty intentionally did in the comic? I don't know. Maybe Kitty doesn't need to be cast with Stewart & McKellan already set to reprise their roles. One less new character to introduce right? Also, since this story takes place in the past & future. Should we see older versions of the same characters for the future roles?
In closing, I understand that my views maybe different from others & this could be what some fans may or may not want to see & that's fine. You may have your thoughts & I have mine. However, as the subject states. These are MY IDEAS. You obviously have your own of what the plot should be & which characters it consists of. This being my blog, consisting of my thoughts & what I'd like to see. So with that said, there's no need for unnecessary negative feedback because you may or may not share my ideas.

Nov. 2 (Bloomberg) -- Retail consumer goods cost an average of 11 percent more in Canada than they do in the U.S., Bank of Canada Governor Mark Carney said today, a gap that has narrowed from 18% in April.
In the prepared text of comments to the Senate National Finance Committee, Carney cited a number of reasons why costs for identical goods might be higher in Canada, including inventory levels, local supply and demand factors, labor costs and productivity levels.

Yankee Doodle: Brodie got the boot along with Johnson because of a throw the bums out anti-incumbant mood. The list of accomplishments Currie touted when he announced are far outweighed by a lot of things that have not gone well at the county in his two terms. If Cronin plays upon the theme of successful employee lawsuits, the prosecutors office debacle, the planning department revolving door and questionable practices, the assessors office continuing computer miscues and on and on he will plant the question in the minds of voters: As chairman of the board of commissioners shouldn't he be held accountable?
DFO: The Demos may have a very good alternative for those who can't vote for either Rick Currie or Tom Cronin. Mebbe in the other commissioner race, too. Stay tuned.

The facts of the case are familiar to almost everyone. A few months ago, as winter was setting in, Judge Roy Moore, the chief justice of the Alabama Supreme Court, was removed from office for his refusal to heed a federal court order. U.S. District Judge Myron Thompson had instructed Moore to clear the state judicial building's rotunda of a 2.6-ton granite monument to the Ten Commandments, arguing that the monument violated the constitutional principle of separation of Church and State. The monument had been placed in the rotunda by Moore in 2001, and he had ignored all entreaties to get rid of it.
The saga of "Roy's Rock" followed a predictable pattern. Liberal and secular groups railed against the intrusion of an overtly religious symbol into the highest state court in Alabama. Moore's supporters argued that the Ten Commandments broadly represent "the moral foundation of law." As the controversy raged, atheists asked to have a monument of their own placed in the court's rotunda: a statue of an atom. Judge Moore turned them down (though there would have been more than enough room for a life-size rendition).
Well, the battle is over now. What remains, as always, is the double life the Bible leads. On the one hand, it is obviously a religious document—for believers, either literally or "in some sense" (as a squirrelly Anglican might have it) the very word of God. On the other hand, it is a foundational text of our culture, an artifact that has shaped even secular aspects of Western civilization.
What pretty much everyone agrees on is that whatever its nature, the Bible is a collection of many bits of writing, representing many kinds of literature, and that its various pieces came into existence at different moments over more than a millennium. As the Ten Commandments case sputtered on, I began to indulge a fantasy. Suppose a committee were formed and given this charge: select a collection of texts in English, written over a period of centuries, that somehow fulfills the same functions as the books of the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament—the Next Testament, it could be called. What would be in such a collection? To be clear: the charge would be not to compile some new "canon"—some kind of Great Books course—but, rather, to assemble the raw materials for something that would have the same cultural feel a few thousand years hence that the Bible has now.
Start with, say, the Book of Genesis—the classic creation story. Scholars explain that the book as we know it is probably an intertwining of work from three main ancient sources—one author designated J (the "Jahwist" or "Yahwist" source, because this writer refers to God as YHWH), the second designated E (because this writer refers to God as Elohim), and the third designated P (the priestly source). The creation story in our new, modern Bible might be woven from sources known as W, H, and D. W would refer to the physicist Steven Weinberg's The First Three Minutes, an account of the Big Bang. H would refer to Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time. W and H have plenty of the requisite awe, menace, and wonder, and although both eschew theology, they have things to say about meaning. (From W: "The more the universe seems comprehensible, the more it also seems pointless.")
The oldest of the sources for the new Genesis, D, would be Charles Darwin's The Origin of Species. D is by far the most humane of the three writers—warm, observant, a superb anecdotalist, similar in some respects to the old Bible's J. And he would provide knotty issues for future scholars to argue over. For instance, which version of Origin's last sentence should be accepted as orthodox? Should it be the first edition's "There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been Originally breathed into a few forms or into one ..."? Or the second edition's version, in which after the word "breathed" D inserted the words "by the Creator"?
The biblical books of Leviticus and Deuteronomy are largely collections of laws, rituals, and recommended practices—the ingredients of a coherent social order. The Next Testament version could be fashioned from several sources—Jane Brody's Good Food Book and The Joy of Sex, perhaps, but also the Internal Revenue Service's Form 1040 information booklet, The Rules, the U.S. Army's Ranger Handbook, the columns of Ann Landers, and the Mayflower Compact.

Agua Dulce resident Lou Vince, a detective supervisor with the Los Angeles Police Department, is running for sheriff to bring "a broader perspective" to the Sheriff's Department, he said Thursday.
Don't miss a thing. Get breaking Santa Clarita news alerts delivered right to your inbox.
"I see the office of the sheriff as a leader in the criminal justice system," Vince said, adding that the office of Sheriff provides the opportunity to go beyond just finding the best ways tomake arrests, which is the focus of the LAPD.
"I want to improve outcomes for people, instead of finding new and better ways to put them in jail, which is what cops are in the business of," Vince said, "and improving the county as a whole."
Vince touts ideas for a department overhaul including everything from how officers are trained to the bail system to transparency.
The Agua Dulce resident said his children go to school in Canyon Country, and the Santa Clarita Valley is his home.
He felt training sheriff's deputies by putting them into the jails first was not the best way to train them to interact with the public, because it teaches new deputies to treat the public like criminals.
Sheriff Lee Baca retired in January after 48 years with the Sheriff's Department, amid federal officials' indictment of several Sheriff's Department officials.

Sheriff John Scott, former Orange County undersheriff, was appointed by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors to replace Baca with the understanding he would not seek a four-year term.
Related article: Lee Baca Replacement: John Scott Named Interim Sheriff
The bail system is also part of our jail-overcrowding problem, Vince said, noting a risk-based system as opposed to a financially based one might be fairer, and keep more dangerous suspects off the streets, as opposed to just those who can't "afford to write the check."
To further transparency, he suggested dashboard cameras and lapel cameras, which is part of a pilot program used by LAPD officers.
While noting the rank-and-file initially might bristle at his suggestions, which include a consent decree similar to the LAPD's allowing for more civilian oversight, he said ultimately, the trust it builds would prompt deputies' support.
"We can't be afraid to show the public what we're doing — we need to have cameras in the jail, every square inch," he said. "I think the public will realize what a horribly difficult job deputies have."
He also mentioned three groups, those awaiting pretrial release, the mentally ill and drug offenders, as groups that might benefit from Los Angeles County services outside the jail system.
The race for sheriff of Los Angeles County includes seven candidates who qualified for the ballot: Patrick Gomez, a retired sheriff lieutenant; James Hellmold, an assistant sheriff; Jim McDonnell, chief of the Long Beach Police Department; Bob Olmsted, a retired sheriff commander; Todd Rogers, a Palmdale city councilman and assistant sheriff; and Paul Tanaka, a retired undersheriff.
A report on LATimes.com regarding candidate fundraising noted in the last campaign disclosure period from January to mid-March, Hellmold raised $330,676; McDonnell raised $307,000; Tanaka $266,885; Rogers, $121,614; Olmsted, $46,000; and Vince raised $12,709.
"It's really about leadership and management," said Vince, who oversees gangs and narcotics detectives in the western San Fernando Valley and touts "heavy involvement" in the starting of two LAPD stations on his resume.
"I'm not saying it's going to be 100 percent successful," he said, "but (the change) is something we need to do to work toward a positive system."

Memorial #106318688 J. Hardin Johnson
I am researching the Johnson line from Johnson County, AR. My Robert Blair Johnson had a son, J.H. Johnson, have also seen his name Joseph Hardin Johnson. I am attempting to determine if this is "my" J. Hardin Johnson. Do you have any information regarding his lineage. A J.H. Johnson married an Annie Johnson 1895 in Johnson County, AR. I descend from his older brother, John Wesley Johnson (who named a son Joseph Harden Johnson, born 1879)
Thank you so much for your consideration of my questions. If you wish to respond to my personal email, it is firstname.lastname@example.com

Hello, If you can would you please take a picture of the stones for Dorsey Harris & Ed Harris. They are buried in the Mount Zion Cemetery in Hempstead County, Arkansas. I believe using the census they both died between 1870 & 1880. Thank you, Donna email@example.com

RE: W H Prescott
It was his rank during the war. He likely raised his company in the area of Old Washington, and was elected Captain. It is probable that he was well-liked, and would have been called "Captain" after the war, out of respect.
I found a biography on him in the "Washington Telegraph" Sept.18,1908 p.5 and his obituary in the same paper, on the date of Feb. 11,1910 p.5.
Hope you don't mind my edit on your work.

Hello. The "W P" stands for William Porter. His parents, William Barham (1796-1874) and Suzannah Fortner Barham(1797-1874, are also buried at Forest Hill Cemetery but their markers were knocked down. Could you make changes? Thanks.

As a basketball official for 10 years, Charlottes mayor for 14 years, and now governor of North Carolina for one year, my family and I have had our share of being booed, yelled at, cussed and sadly even physically threatened. Its the job that I signed up for and I couldnt be more proud to serve the great state of North Carolina.
Let me briefly set the record straight about the much-written about and discussed incident that occurred at one of my favorite Charlotte-area establishments. This past Sunday afternoon while I was with members of my family for lunch, an employee said hello with one finger instead of five. I responded with a simple thank you. He then said, Thanks for nothing.
When these types of encounters typically occur, my response as a mayor and now as governor is typically a thank you for the feedback and a smile. As a 14-year mayor, I proudly never used the gavel to bring order to a meeting, but rather calmly asked for respectful dialogue.
In an era when even the president of the United States was insulted during the State of Union address, we shouldnt be rewarding those who behave inappropriately by giving them fame.
Perhaps more stories from the Observer should be about the vast majority of employees from the public and private sectors who every day care for and treat people with respect, customer service and dignity. We all witnessed hundreds of people helping others through random acts of kindness during the recent snowstorms. These are the people that deserve recognition by the Observer and I say thanks to all of them.
I remain focused on finding answers to the important issues facing our state: bringing more jobs to all 100 counties, raising teacher salaries and improving education outcomes, protecting the environment and increasing efficiency in state government. I also recognize that there are times when some people may disagree with our solutions. We welcome that feedback.
But I would argue that one can be passionate about an issue and still maintain civility in the debate. North Carolinians deserve better.
Pat McCrory is governor of North Carolina.

I think I've tracked down a keg to repurpose into a boil kettle (haven't seen it yet, so I don't know what kind of shape it's in). The keg's current owner has had it for so long that he no longer remembers what he paid for it and isn't sure of the value. Since this is the first one I've managed to find, I don't really know what the going rate is either. I don't want to overpay, but I don't want to rip the guy off either. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what a fair offer might be?
He didnt pay anything for the keg. He simply placed a small deposit and then kept it after that. Legally its a stolen keg...
Yes it is stolen.
However, I would not pay over 40 for one in good shape.
30-40 depending on condition
What is it worth to you? Can you find a 15 gallon boil kettle elsewhere for $40?
I think the $30-$40 range is reasonable. If he can prove he legally owns it (not stolen as chemman14 proposes), I'd pay a little more just for the peace of mind. Legally acquired kegs do exist... but chances are, this is not one. That being said, $30-$40
Bottled: a strange yet somehow award winning pale ale
Primary Fermenter: Experimental porter
Kegged: Nothing, as I have no kegging equipment
Favorite Commercial Beers: Guinness Foreign Extra Stout, Young's D.C. Stout, Choc Last Laugh
Upscale equipment project slowly progressing.
Legal - $80-100
Illegal - $20-$40
Depends on the fittings installed in it too. IF he used all stainless fittings (3-piece ball valve, good dip tube, etc.) then it will be worth more. If he used an one piece valve and all brass fittings, worth considerably less. If you weren't 3 hours away from me I'd offer to help you build up one for yourself. With LEGAL kegs. If you want to explore that option, PM me... I have all the tools needed to do the conversion.
I live in the K.C., MO area. I've never seen a used for less than 50 bucks. Which, coincidentally is the usually the cost of your deposit....
On the whole legal/illegal question though. If they keep your deposit, you own that keg. There is usually something in the paper-work you sign that states that after a certain amount of time has past, they will pocket your deposit and you now own the empty piece of stainless steel or aluminum. Similar to a movie rental, correct? Or am I completely off base?

What should i opt in class 11th well i want to take science stream but im confused that shuld i tke pcmb or
i also want to know that wat r the career options in science
If you have decided that you wanna be an engineer, then take
- since a prior exposure to programming languages will help you in future.
However if you are undecided between engineering and medical fields or wanna give a shot to both, then "b" is a must and hence go for pcmb. Knowing Computers beforehand would certainly be an advantage , but its not that big a deal. You can always catch up since engr colleges do not assume that you know stuff and hence start from scratch.
pure sciences has a lot of scope..(esp in research)....

AIA Group Limited [2] known as AIA (Chinese: 友邦保險) is an insurance company based in Hong Kong. It has offices in Asia-Pacific region including Taiwan, China, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, India, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Indonesia, Macau, South Korea, Thailand, Philippines, Singapore, Brunei and Vietnam. Holdings include Philippine American Life and General Insurance Company and minority stakes in TATA AIA Life Insurance and TATA AIG General Insurance.
It was a member of American International Group, but separated from the group in 2009 after it was finalized that AIA as well as ALICO (another AIG subsidiary) were placed under the administration of a Special Purpose Vehicle in exchange for the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.[3] In December 2012, AIA was informed by American International Group Inc. (AIG) that AIG had entered into a placing agreement to sell all of its ordinary shares of AIA at a price of HK$30.30 per share. Upon completion of the placing, AIG has fully divested its holding of shares in AIA.[4]
According to the statistics from the Office of the Commissioner of Insurance (保險業監理處), AIA being the number 1 of Hong Kong insurance company in terms of the number of policies, its market share in Hong Kong Insurance market (on Non-Linked Individual Business) is 26% and sum assured worth more than 400 billion HKD (i.e. more than US$50 billion).[5]
AIA was planned to be listed in Hong Kong Stock Exchange in April 2010. However, in March 2010, Prudential plc, a United Kingdom-based financial services company, announced that it will buy AIA for $35.5 billion.[6] The purchase later fell through, and AIA held an IPO later in October 2010 raising $20.51 billion, the fourth largest ever IPO.[7]
AIA Group acquired ING Group's Malaysian insurance division in October 2012 for a total of €1.3 billion.[8]
It was announced on 15 August 2013, that AIA Group would be Tottenham Hotspur's cup shirt sponsor.[9] Starting with the 2014/15 season, they would also become the official shirt sponsor for the league, making them the shirt sponsor for all competitions. [10]

Internet-based or platform lenders are stepping up their efforts to capture consumer loans.
NCUA says onsite WesCorp and other corporate examiners were limited by regs, not influenced by executives.
According to a report commissioned by the New York Federal Reserve in 2009, the Fed's culture for lax supervision was to blame for the financial crisis in 2008.
Many examiners were reluctant to "press changes" on the supervised banks involved in Wall Street's financial meltdown.
Every day, six days a week, a credit union closes and never re-opens. That has been going on for many years. More than 3% of credit unions have annually closed for the past decade. By 2025, the United States will have around 4,500 credit unions.
Do the math. Look to your right. Look to your left. One in three credit unions will vanish by 2025. Find out more in this week's preview from next week's print edition.
Ninth suit filed so far by NCUA in the sale of toxic mortgage-backed securities to corporate credit unions.
Lawsuits pile up against Wall Street banks in corporate collapses. Three settled so far.
Jim Adamczyk can remember receiving an increase in calls from banks interested in FAIRWINDS Credit Union's auto loan portfolio. That was as recent as 2010, said Adamczyk, executive vice president of lending, for the $1.7 billion cooperative in Orlando, Fla.
The aftermath of a $2 billion trading loss at JPMorgan Chase & Co., continues to spread both in and outside the company.

Anyone else see the inherent problem with this? I'm not supporting discrimination against the handicapped but doesn't this kind of fall under the threat to public safety thing? I'm sure there are some blind people that could operate a gun safely but they can't be in the majority.
@kraytrawk: Or it could be a desperate attempt by Iowa to make themselves seem interesting.

Some like to make their canes into guns or whatever daredevil calls his weapon
@bogey: But here's the thing, you generally need your eyes for things like aiming, which if I'm not mistaken is somewhat important when shooting a gun.
Why would a blind person need a gun? I honestly have no words or other comments.

gun instruction session: 'feel the shot'
MetH Has Hears tHat blind people witH guns are only allowed to sHoot down. Not directly down but if tHey feel tHreatened or in fear of tHeir life tHey can only shoot "at their legs" or so MetH Has Heard.
MetH Honestly doesn't see the problem. If one of tHem goes on a rampage it will be real easy to take care of the situation. THe biggest problem would be a blind person sHooting the wrong person wHicH will easily take away tHere rigHt to carry.
THey can only sHoot from the waist down so... Iowa sHould be ok.

Every year, with no exceptions, more people with sight...... KILL/INJURE THE WRONG TARGET, more often then blind people do.
The blind are typically not the ones operate a gun because they're blind. The training and judgement of the user is inadequate.

@guardian_of_gravity: Understood. my point is: a person with sight but has bad judgment and no training is just as deadly as a blind person owning a gun.

Ha ha ha ha ha!
@pooty: I understand your point and all but if a blind guy had good judgement would he own something that depended a lot on the ability to See to avoid accidentally killing an innocent person? I understand the whole "feel your target" thing but you kind of need to see your surroundings to be able to tell at least get in the general area of your target. To me this is along the same lines as not letting blind people drive cars because for the most part it would present a danger to themselves and those around them.
The constitution replies to everybody.
@thespideyguy: This could fall in the same line as not being allowed to shout "Fire" in a crowded theater, because it presents a clear threat to the safety of those around you.
Would Blind people be even able to pass any of the tests needed to get a permit?
There are tests in America right?

@thespideyguy: This could fall in the same line as not being allowed to shout "Fire" in a crowded theater, because it presents a clear threat to the safety of those around you.
That ruins my weekend plans.
A blind person should have the same opportunities to defend themselves as anyone else. plus because they are aware of their limitations, I believe they would use far better judgment then those with sight. if you gave every single blind person a gun and did a 10 year study , I believe blind people would have FEWER deaths by mistake then people with sight. just my opinion.
Hehe! This! =D xD
@pooty: There are millions of people with sight that can't aim for sh*t, and have fine judgement that still have gun accidents. I somehow doubt being blind and having a gun would lower those odds.
I doubt being blind with a gun would greatly increase those numbers. Look up the situations where most accidental deaths by guns take place. Robberies, huntung, drive bys. blind people would not be involved in those activities. They would mainly use them only for self defense. If I'm blind and a robber breaks in my house I deserve at least a chance to blow his head off

...or accidentally shoot your fleeing wife or child. I see your point, I've never seen a blind man hold up a liquor store, nor shoot at a drive by. That still doesn't change the fact that this is a deadly weapon that is based primarily on sight and people without sight shouldn't really have them.
@pooty: I agree no blind guy has ever done a drive by because Blind people aren't allowed to drive cars.
A gun is not dangerous. The person holding the gun is dangerous. I see your point also. I understand how absurd this may sound. but to clarify my point lets try this. Name every reasonable situation a blind person may kill the wrong person by accident. Then I will name every reasonable situation a person with sight may accidentally kill the wrong person. Then we'll see who is more dangerous with a gun. I don't think guns kill people. I think people put themselves in situations where the PERSON accidentally kills a person. I think blind people would avoid the VAST MAJORITY of those situations. also blind people are already at a disadvantage to protect themselves. and robbers and thugs know this. they already don't have sight. Should we make them a bigger target by not letting them defend themselves?
@pooty: But not being able to see increases the odds of missing a target dramatically, I'm sorry there is absolutely NO WAY you will ever convince me that it is safe to allow someone without the ability to aim a gun to have one. Shooting without looking is considered by the most experienced and well trained marksmen to be idiotic and a blind man is literally incapable of looking where he shoots. No amount of good judgement is going to make a damn bit of difference if you can't see the target your shooting at, that is just logic plain and simple.
@joshmightbe: You asked a question in the OP: Anyone else see the inherent problem with this? My answer is "NO". If you only want comments from people who agree with you then let that be known in the OP. Still, I say that PEOPLE kill PEOPLE because PEOPLE, not an inanimate object, put themselves in bad situations and make bad decisions. I don't believe that Blind people would put themselves in those situations thus they won't make as many bad decisions.
Here is the link and the full story for people who want to know. The sheriff of the town is the main supporter of this. He has enough sense to know that blind people will NOT be casually shooting guns the way people with sight do. He is talking about if a person is on top of you, even a blind person can shoot the person on top of them. Also the law is for the visually impaired. People who may not see clearly but can see shapes, sizes etc. He says they would NEED additional training and practice. So no, this is not "give any blind person a gun and let them shoot away". This is an effort to TRAIN people who are visually impaired in the correct use of a gun so they can protect themselves just as you would want to protect yourself!!!!
@pooty: I didn't say you had to agree with me, just saying that you won't convince me that this is a good idea. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, just because I don't agree with it doesn't mean you aren't allowed to say it. Perhaps you need to understand how conversations work a little better if you think just expressing a different opinion is trying to enforce my thought process on someone else.
@joshmightbe: Once a person says: NO WAY you can ever convince me" there is no need for further discussion on that topic. It is no longer a conversation just a waste of time

I remember when I first heard this I just facepalmed.
A blind person with a gun is largely going to be a threat to everyone but his actual target. It's definitely not going to work as a method of self defense unless it's a spray and pray kind of gun, which if I understand, are much harder to acquire legally in America than single shot/semi-automatic weapons.

Calling Dr. Love
|"Calling Dr. Love"
|Single by Kiss
|from the album Rock and Roll Over
|February 13, 1977 (US)
|1976 at Star Theatre, Nanuet, New York
|Hard rock, glam rock
|Casablanca NB-880 (US)
|Gene Simmons
|Eddie Kramer
|Kiss singles chronology
"Calling Dr. Love" is a song by American hard rock band Kiss, originally released on their 1976 album Rock and Roll Over. It was written by bassist/lead vocalist Gene Simmons at a Holiday Inn in Evansville, Indiana. The song was the second single released from the album, and the band's fourth US Top 20 single, reaching #16 in Billboard. The song's title came from Simmons' recollection of a Three Stooges short called "Men in Black", containing an announcement over a hospital intercom, "Calling Doctor Howard, Doctor Fine, Doctor Howard", meaning Moe, Larry and Curly, respectively.
A live version of the song was included on Alive II, released later in 1977. Since then, "Calling Dr. Love" has appeared on numerous Kiss compilation albums. In 2003, it appeared on Kiss's fifth live album, Kiss Symphony: Alive IV.
Popular culture[edit]
The song was released as downloadable content in the music video game Rock Band.
The song also featured in the setlist of the Kiss Alive 35 tour in 2008.
The song is mentioned - albeit briefly - in The Wastelands, the third installment of Stephen King's epic Dark Tower Series.
British wrestling ring announcer and former wrestler, 'Sweet' Stevie Aaron uses the song as his entrance theme.
The song was used in 2009 in a commercial for the cherry-flavored Dr. Pepper. The commercial features Simmons on a couch with several women, in front of a large electric KISS logo which flashes when he says that the new product has a "KISS of cherry." His son enters and scolds him for over-emphasizing the word "kiss," as the flavor is very smooth. The spot ends with "Dr. Love" reminding the audience to trust him, as "I'm a doctor!" A variant of this ad aired during Super Bowl XLIV.
The Canadian 8 track tape version of the song is extended by about 55 seconds, with a smoothly edited-in repeat of the guitar solo.
Most recently, the song was featured in the film Magic Mike.
In 1994, the song was recorded and re-arranged by the one-off supergroup Shandi's Addiction (vocalist Maynard James Keenan, guitarist Tom Morello, bassist Billy Gould, and drummer Brad Wilk) as part of the Kiss tribute album Kiss My Ass: Classic Kiss Regrooved.
In 1996, the industrial rock band The Electric Hellfire Club covered the song on their album Calling Dr. Luv, renaming the album and song to reflect the name of their keyboardist The Rev. Dr. Luv who had recently died, which the album was dedicated to. The punk band Hullabaloo covered the song for the Kiss tribute album Hard to Believe: Kiss Covers Compilation.
- Gene Simmons – lead vocals, bass guitar
- Paul Stanley – rhythm guitar, backing vocals
- Ace Frehley – lead guitar

Whittier, CA United States
RBB Architects Inc
PIH Health is among the fastest growing community hospitals in Los Angeles. The new Plaza Tower is the third patient tower addition completed by RBB Architects as part of a phased Master Plan for this campus. As a result of the Plaza Tower completion, PIH Health is now a 500-bed, full service acute care hospital. The Tower also brings the Hospital into full compliance with California Senate Bill 1953 Seismic Requirements.
This expansion was complex, in that it is located between two existing buildings, adjacent to the existing Emergency Department, and includes replacement of the Hospital's Surgery Department. The existing Surgery Department remained fully functional until the opening of the replacement facility. Above the new Surgery on the lower level are two floors of Critical Care beds and two floors of Medical/Surgical beds.
The Plaza Tower achieved major improvements:
- 48 Critical Care beds and 64 Surgery beds added to the hospital capacity
- Zoning is clarified with surgery and radiology on lower level, and public access on the first floor
- Critical care beds located directly above Surgery with dedicated elevators
- Cath Labs, Special Labs and Radiology consolidated, adjacent to Surgery, blurring the lines between interventional radiology and surgery

The Newspaper Guild Joins Visual Arts Source In Its Boycott of Huffinton Post
The Newspaper Guild, representing 26,000 media-workers across the country, will be joining Visual Arts Source publisher Bill Lasarow in his boycott of the Huffington Post. In a statement released last week declaring the boycott, the guild announced, "We feel it is unethical to expect trained and qualified professionals to contribute quality content for nothing. It is unethical to cannibalize the investment of other organizations that bear the cost of compensation and other overhead without payment for the usage of their content. It is extremely unethical to not merely blur but eradicate the distinction between the independent and informed voice of news and opinion and the voice of a shill."
The guild is asking writers to stop contributing to HuffPo for free and for readers to avoid crossing the "electronic picket line" by visiting the site. Like Lasarow, the guild demands a pay schedule for all bloggers, as well as that "paid promotional material must no longer be posted alongside editorial content."

A delicate issue
- 0Jan 15 by OrcaI have an issue that I am unsure of the best way to approach. I have a number of nurses on my staff who are not native English speakers. We have had a turnover in providers, and our new providers have the same native language as the nurses in question. They have begun communicating in their native language extensively in the work area, and it is becoming an issue with some of our patients and with some others who work in the area. I am trying to figure out the best way to address this problem tactfully.
My staff works very cohesively, and they work together well. They are a solid team and they volunteer to cover vacant shifts, which we have had quite a few of lately. I want to approach this in a sensitive manner, but it must be addressed.
- 0Jan 15 by lhflanurse, MSNIs the issue that they are too loud? Why exactly are patients and other staff members having issues?
- 2Jan 15 by meanmaryjean, MSN, RNThe issue is that they are not speaking English with each other, right?
I think the direct approach is best. Address the concerns raised in a respectful manner, and set forth the standard that all communication in public areas of the unit is to be English-only.
Beating around the bushes will NOT solve the problem.
- 1Jan 15 by loriangel14 GuideMany places have this type of policy. It is considered rude for people to speak in front of others in another language in the workplace.Formal communication of the new policy should be a starting point.
- 2Jan 15 by amoLuciaSometimes the Social Services Dept Head can conduct an inservice on Resident Rights/Sensitivity Issues. And if this issue has come up in Resident Council meetings' minutes it has to addressed.
The advantage that SS does it is that ALL disciplines and depts. can be reached. The language problem is not confined to any one language as we have all heard Filipinos, Hispanics, French Hatians, etc speaking. But when it's done in the workplace, it is a problem for pts and staff.
Have SS introduce (re-introduce?) it as a facility-wide policy and no one group is singled out. And then people can be reminded when a 'slip of the tongue' occurs.

1990. Please write and tell me why you should live here.
Toby Dobbs received a big Victorian house with too many bedrooms to count as a wedding present from his father, but his marriage is over within a month. Very alone, and very lonely, Toby posts an advertisement seeking the "Unexpectedly Alone" to become his roommates. Fifteen years later the wayward souls he takes in are still living with him, with no intention of leaving.
2004. Please tell me how I can convince you to move out.
Toby Dobbs has met Leah Pilgrim from across the road, and they're falling in love. But before they can begin a new life together, Toby and Leah must help Toby's house of sweet slackers and lovelorn misfits grow up, solve their problems, and set themselves free. But can their new relationship survive the test?
Lisa Jewell is the author of six novels, including Ralph's Party and Vince and Joy. Born and raised in north London, she lives there still with her husband and children.
