Better insulation, dual-paned windows and low-flow toilets may not be high points designers talk about when it comes to buildings.
But they may be points of pride in future municipal buildings in Chandler if the City Council approves higher energy-efficiency standards on Thursday.
With the Green Building Program, Chandler would join Scottsdale, Phoenix, Queen Creek, Tucson, Flagstaff, Apache Junction and Oro Valley as the only communities in the state building to the internationally accepted "green" benchmarks created by LEED, the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, a third-party certification program that is overseen by the U.S. Green Building Council.
"We feel that it's important the city set an example and be a leader and do green building," said city planner Jason Crampton, who is guiding the city's efforts. "If we want private development to get into green building ... we think it's important for the city to take that first step to show it is feasible and makes sense economically and environmentally."
Under the proposal, all city construction of 5,000 square feet or more would be designed to meet the silver certification under LEED. There are four levels awarded: LEED, LEED Silver, LEED Gold and LEED Platinum.
The new 18,420-square-foot fire administration building was designed to meet the LEED Silver standard, Crampton said. Work on the building's site near Boston Street and Arizona Avenue has begun. Building cost is estimated at $5 million, while the design work, site and infrastructure cost about $7.5 million, acting fire Chief Tom Carlson wrote in an e-mail.
The future City Hall complex is pursuing gold certification, Crampton said. Studies have shown that adding these components to construction adds between 1 percent and 5 percent to the cost of a project, he said. "You see a pretty good energy savings with LEED Silver, 30 percent to 35 percent reduced energy use on average," he said. "Water use is reduced 40 percent. The indoors is enhanced with better air quality for the workforce and customers."
The resolution would also provide private, nonresidential developers with funds to apply for LEED certification. For the first year of the program, the council is being asked to allocate $75,000 to community education and the certificate program. Private builders could apply to be reimbursed for the certification, which costs between $1,750 and $17,500, depending on building size, Crampton said.
"We have been encouraging energy consciousness and sustainable techniques," to private builders, city director of planning and development Doug Ballard said. "Sustainability has been a watchword for us for a long time. This is the first time we've articulated it in a policy."
The planning and development department will bring a new set of building codes before the council later this summer. It includes for the first time energy-efficiency standards that private builders will be required to meet for family, multifamily and nonresidential buildings in the city.
Not at the same level as LEED, the International Building Code Energy Code provides "minimum standards to meet for construction: double-glazed windows, a certain amount of insulation, energy-efficient electrical systems and things of that nature. So there's some regulatory aspect to it," Ballard said. There is a transition period for builders. Proposals now in the plan-review or design process will not be required to meet the new standards, Ballard said.

Snow Day
When we all got home, I bundled the kids up, and we played outside in the snow. I think it took me longer to get everyone dressed than it did for us to actually play outside. I think it may have scared my one-year old, but he definitely got into the spirit!
I do have a couple of pictures of a fraction game that my students really enjoyed. They worked with a partner, and each group had two dice and a recording sheet. They took turns rolling the dice to create a fraction. Then, they had to use their fraction manipulatives to determine who created the largest fraction. I love any games where my students are learning but don't realize it!
We also practiced ordering different types of fractions, and I have to admit that I was blown away by how much trouble it was giving my students. I'm not quite sure if I'm not explaining it clearly, or if they have a misconception that I'm not seeing. Whenever I get back to school, I'm going to try to find the root of the problem, and we'll spend some more time on this topic.
Stay warm!

Was it the circle fractions that was the problem? It's harder to see the difference than with the fractions of a rectangle.

Windows Explorer left hand pane
If I expand a folder that's down towards the bottom and there's a lot of subfolders, then everything moves up to make room for the subfolder list. That's as it should be. But about the time I go to click on one of the subfolders, the whole list moves down again and you have to scroll back down to get where you want. After that, it stays put. It's an bug/annoyance that I hope someone gets fixed.
Just my 2 cents worth. |

I think the OP is noticing the little quirk in Win 7 where Explore does not bring the left pane target folder (the one with focud) up to the to of the pane, throwing it instead to the bottom of the pane.

OK, further research shows this is a widely-known problem. It's more serious than a folder jumping around when you click on it.
The problem also happens when doing a drag/drop to the Windows Explorer navigation pane, which causes files to land in the wrong place. IOW you're dragging a file to a folder, and just as your mouse cursor touches it, the folder jumps out from under you, making your files land in the wrong place. The problem was reported before Win7 shipped; I can't believe it wasn't fixed. There are so many threads discussing it, I can't tell if MS has acknowledged it a bug or still considers it intended design behavior. If a bug I see no indication of a severity assessment: hotfix, vs service pack vs next major Windows version. Various other threads containing discussion and work-arounds (none good, IMO): Windows explorer tree view expands at the bottom, not at the top as it used to be (note this one contains pointers to yet other threads discussing the problem) Strange folder behavior in left pane of Windows Explorer W7 Jumping To Bottom Browser When clicking on Folders (thread contains 9MB .mov video which well illustrates the problem): http://www.md-arts.com/scrn/W7_Jumpi...elected_01.mov |

This game wasn't about money, points, or trophies. Instead it was played for pride, both personal and national. It was a confrontation twenty years in the making and it marked a turning point in the history of hockey.
On December 31, 1975, the Montreal Canadiens, the most successful franchise in the NHL, hosted the touring Central Red Army, the dominant team in the Soviet Union. For three hours millions of people in both Canada and the Soviet Union were glued to their television sets. What transpired that evening was a game that surpassed all the hype and was subsequently referred to as "the greatest game ever played." Held at the height of the Cold War, this remarkable contest transcended sports and took on serious cultural, sociological, and political overtones. And while the final result was a 3-3 tie, no one who saw the game was left disappointed. This exhibition of skill was hockey at its finest, and it set the bar for what was to follow as the sport began its global expansion.
"Simply said this is one of the best hockey books written since Ken Dryden's The Game and Dryden and Roy MacGregor's Home Game."– Peterborough Examiner
"A masterful job."– Montreal Gazette
"A tense yet thrilling tale."– Winnipeg Free Press

Antec is one of the names that has been around the longest in the power supply industry. They have had ups and downs throughout their history, but have innovated time and time again to deliver industry leading power supplies. It has been quite some time since we've taken a look at what Antec has to offer, but that is coming to an end as we've got one of their latest units on the test bench today.
The power supply in question today is the Antec High Current Pro Platinum 850W. The High Current Pro Platinum is an update of the High Current Pro line. We took a look at the HCP-1200 a couple ago and it proved to be a spectacular example of a flagship power supply.
The updated HCP Platinum series simplifies things a little bit by reducing the number of 12V rails, while also upping the efficiency of the units a little bit too. Antec offers the new HCP-Platinum in three wattages - 850W, 1000W and 1300W. Today we are taking a look at the 850W model.
Specifications, Availability and Pricing
One of the big changes for the HCP-Platinum is the reduction in 12V rails down to a maximum of four. The HCP-850 Platinum has four 12V rails. Each of them are rated for 40A each with a combined maximum output of 850W. Both the 3.3V and 5V rails are rated for 25A each with a combined maximum output of 130W. The 5VSB rail is rated for 3A or 15W. Maximum combined output for the HCP-850 Platinum is 850W.
As a flagship PSU, you would expect to see nothing but a full list of features, and the HCP-850 Platinum doesn't disappoint. All of the protections are present including SCP, OVP, OCP, OPP and OTP. The power supply features fully modular cables, all of which are fully sleeved. As the name suggests, the HCP-850 Platinum is rated for 80 PLUS Platinum efficiency. Antec also states that the HCP-850 Platinum is rated for 100% continuous output at 50C.
Antec has an MSRP of $249.99 on the HCP-850 Platinum. Directron has the best price on the unit at the time of writing and it comes out to $232.63 after shipping. That price puts it much more in line with the rest of the competition, but it is a little bit on the expensive side if you can't catch a deal on it. Antec offers a seven year warranty on the HCP Platinum line of power supplies.

College of the Canyons Theatre presents the classic play.
Is it right to profit from the misery of others during war?
What if that profit was the only thing that kept you and your children alive? That dilemma comes to the main stage of the College of the Canyons Performing Arts Center when Bertolt Brecht's classic play Mother Courage and Her Children sets up camp for a four-day run beginning Thursday, May 10.
Considered to be one of the most definitive anti-war plays of the twentieth century, Mother Courage and Her Children was written by Brecht in 1938 and portrays Mother Courage as she and her three children follow a Protestant regiment into the Thirty Years War of the 17th Century.
While trying to keep her family alive, Mother Courage discovers a talent for business and becomes prosperous as a result of the suffering of others.
"Although the play is set in the 17th century, Mother Courage and Her Children is truly a chronicle of all wars," said director Stephan Whelan. "It has a universal message that especially resonates in the world today."
Mother Courage opens Thursday, May 10 at 7pm, shows again on Friday, May 11 and Saturday, May 12 at 8pm, and closes with a 2pm matinées show on Sunday, May 13. Tickets are $10 for adults, seniors and students with a current ID, and $5 for children under 12.

In Norse mythology, a monstrous wolf. He was the son of the god Loki and a giantess. The gods bound Fenrir to a rock with a magical chain, where he is destined to remain until doomsday, or Ragnarok, when he will break his chains and fall upon the gods. In one version of the myth, he will devour the sun and swallow the chief god, Odin, only to be slain by Vidar, Odin's son. Fenrir figures prominently in Norwegian and Icelandic poetry of the 10th–11th century.

WAZZAP DUDES? How's "it" hanging? Good/Normal? Have you eaten a lot of food today? Were you happy when New York's team won last night, or were you mad? How long have you been wearing the pair of boxer briefs you have on right now? Cool, cool. It's great when we have time to just chill out with each other and catch up. How's your GF? You send her flowers recently? She'd probably like that, don't you think? Cool, it's w/e. Anyway, sooooo, do you know how to speak English? If you do then you are in luck, but if you do not I have a commercial to show you! It's coming to you from CCAA, a language school in Brazil, and it features a lot of Megan Foxes and poses the question: What if you find an island with a lot of Megan Foxes, and then all they want to do is TALK to you? And then it gives you the answer: Nothing, because you don't know how to speak English anyway, and maybe you should've taken some classes?
I know if I found a deserted island with a bunch of Megan Foxes I wouldn't want to waste any time talking to them anyway, AM I RIGHT FELLAS? I'd just go right to touching her face. And then I'd talk at her, but only rhetorically. "How do you look like the way you look?" I'd ask. "Remember when you were in the Diablo Cody movie?" "Your teeth look so nice, isn't it weird how some people just get to have all this perfect stuff about them? And it's like, how did that all come together? Oh but don't you have a weird thing with your toes or whatever? Do you think it's like God made you and then Jesus was like 'God, GMAFB' and then God was like, 'Fine,' and then messed up your toes or whatever, and then Jesus was like, 'Gahhh-oodddd.' Because that was not what Jesus was talking about? Are you listening to me?" Also: Mike Tyson. (Via Uproxx.)

I thought I landed on Matthew Foxes island once and then got rescued and then yelled to everyone that I HAD TO GO BACK!
This one. I'm going with this one. Thanks to everyone for letting me transparently workshop my comment.

Surrey First picks Linda Hepner to run for mayor
Surrey's ruling party has tapped a three-term councillor to replace the outgoing Dianne Watts on its mayoral ticket.
With the endorsement of Watts, Surrey First announced that Linda Hepner will head up its slate for the November election.
"I am committed to leading Surrey First into the coming election and building on the successes that we have achieved over the past nine years," Hepner said in a news release today (June 25). "I am so grateful for this honour. I believe this is a time of incredible opportunity for our city, and I am committed to continuing the prosperity, stability, and sense of community that has made Surrey one of the greatest cities in Canada."
Hepner has served on city council since 2005 and sits on the Metro Vancouver board of directors.
Surrey First councillors Judy Villeneuve, Bruce Hayne, Tom Gill, Mary Martin, and Barbara Steele are running for reelection.
The party also announced that community advocate Vera LeFranc, retired RCMP officer Dave Woods, and firefighter Mike Starchuk will seek council seats under the Surrey First banner.
Barinder Rasode, who left Surrey First to sit on council as an independent, is widely expected to contend for the mayor's office.
You mean the 'sense of community' that led you to condescendingly dismiss LGB and trans people who wanted the rainbow pride flag flown at City Hall during Pride Week, seemingly without so much as asking the City of Vancouver how they do it?
Heh. Yeah. Some 'community' we have here.

Yes, I even check the free section of CL at times to see what might be lurking for a fun project. I saw this office chair listed a few weeks ago, and the frame looked great. It wasn't far away so I picked it up from the environmental agency that was giving it away to be re-cycled.
As I stripped off the fabric, foam, etc, I saw that it was made by Hickory Business Furniture and extremely well made. I also found a shipping tag stapled inside, where one would never find it unless they were removing all the original coverings. Come to find out, it was originally made for a large multiple eye doctor's practice - MY eye doc's! The practice apparently gave some of these chairs to the agency, so it's now been recycled twice! Got the Kravet Lutron or Lorton (have seen it listed both ways) fabric on eBay for about $2.60 a yard, and had some buttons to cover in my stash of supplies. I mixed some colors of Annie Sloan chalk paint together, and today did the re-covering. This was a fun, very inexpensive project! |
Here is a link that might be useful: Look at the price of the fabric here!
Follow-Up Postings:
Wow. That looks great! What do you do with all your recover masterpieces? |
Some will go to my favorite local shop on consignment, and I may give this one to a friend. I'm just enjoying the creative process, and seeing how something can be changed. |
I used to redo "antiques" but just worked with wood pieces, nothing with fabric. You are starting that itch in me up again. =) And my mom used to have fun reupholstering things, and I know how to sew well - although don't do it much at all anymore. Had to make a soft dog collar for one of my kids recently and wasn't sure I would remember how to thread the machine! I did. I found it was like riding a bike. Maybe when I get some time I'll take an upholstery class. Your friend is lucky. I love it. |
I love that fabric and your upholstery skills are amazing! |
My3dogs, can I be your friend???? ;) The chair looks great. You should take a pic to show to your eye doctor next time you visit! |
- Posted by trailrunner (My Page) on Sun, Aug 26, 12 at 17:23
Your talent knows no bounds ! I think taking the chair pic to the eye Dr is a great idea ! c |
That chair looks great! (They always do.) I envy your talent, and your taste is impeccable. |
Thanks, everyone! Good idea on the pic! I can scan in the shipping label, which shows 3 of the docs names in the practice, and email that and the photos to them, as I only go every couple of years. beeps, I have re-done antiques for as long as I can remember, back to my 'youth' when I was relegated to my parent's driveway for projects involving stain. Once you find an inexpensive or free item to recover, I bet you'll be hooked. Seeing the change in the things is what gets me revved up. Being addicted to fabric, and finding great buys on eBay for it feeds the addiction! |
Awesome. You get to accomplish two fun things with one creative outlet - re-doing of furniture and buying pretty fabric. Win-win! (Speaking of fabric addiction - when my mom passed away we took about 4 SUV loads - and I mean filled to the roof liner with the back seat down loads - of fabric to a local women's shelter. My mom lived 30 miles or so from the Los Angeles garment district and there are tons of fabric stores there with crazy low prices. You'd love it there! :) She made tons of stuff, but obviously her eyes were often greater than the time she had available! And I won't mention all the vintage buttons we gave away...) |
Love, love, love the fabric and paint and the updated way you did the back of the chair plus the professional looking cording! So talented! |
You never disappoint, My3dogs! Love the chair color and the fabric is perfect. |
I agree with everyone, your work is professional and beautiful. You combine your talent with your great eye for good design and now upholstery is part of your repertoire! Love the finished chair, and the way you lined up the pattern so symmetrical and interesting. I am an admirer of your work too and watch for updates! |

Amazing! The double welting on your projects is fabulous! As another fabric collector... I am beginning to hunt CL for projects to utilize my extensive stash. You are an inspiration! |
That is awesome!!! |
Keep it up and continue to share with us..love all your projects. Also love how you love to bargain brag...me too!!! Treasure finding is such fun. |
sigh... Wish I could do that. It looks so professional. |
- Posted by livvyandbella (My Page) on Mon, Aug 27, 12 at 7:36
Great job, as always!! |
Thanks so much for your encouragement! Next weekend, I'll be finishing the CL 'throne' chair that that started out like this - which stripped and re-finished became this - with this fabric, which is not my original pick for it, but I prefer this one. I'll be doing a self welt of the fabric, which I've had for a few years after getting it on clearance from Ballard Designs. |
- Posted by tinker_2006 (My Page) on Mon, Aug 27, 12 at 8:30
I wish I could do that, great transformation! |
YOU ARE FABULOUS!!!! And you are my hero :) |
Brilliant, as always! I have a chair with a similar type of back sitting in my garage right now, with the fabric removed as of this morning. I was thinking of you, because I wonder if you just figured it out yourself or used some kind of online tutorial to re-cover your chairs? The previous owner of my chair nailed the fabric to the back of the chair with the frayed edges exposed. I'm a beginner but I think I can do better than that! I was thinking I'd fold the edges under, then use (what? small upholstery nails?) to attach the fabric, and then cover the rows of nails with some kind of trim. |
Sue, are you referring to the Eastlake chair that needs to be finished above? No online tutorial for that, but I have done two and used gimp to cover the raw edges after I staple the fabric on with my electric stapler. Then I used some decorative nails, as you see the 2nd one had originally. Under the fabric is batting for softness and faux burlap that I got online as it won't rot. |
Wow - those are fantastic my3dogs. The fabric choices fit the style of the chair so well - the animal prints have a bit of whimsy. Looks like quality craftsmanship. |
Yes, mine is very similar to those two! Not quite as pretty, which is why I'm jazzing it up by painting the wood a bright color and using a contemporary fabric (both TBD). Okay, so I need to get one of those electric staplers! The bulldog on your chair above looks a lot like one of my dogs! Thanks for the info and pics! |

A Haitian Rhum Agricole from the Barbancourt Distillery.
Here is a nice cocktail for the ladies (and I like it too!). The brilliant pink colour comes from the addition of the grenadine which gives the drink an elegant feminine look; But the addition of the Lemon Wheel garnish and use of a rocks … see full wiki
The Pink Rocket
An original cocktail by Chip Dykstra (Aka @Arcticwolf)
2 oz White Rum (El Dorado 3 yr white is nice)
1 to 2 oz Pink Grapefruit juice
1/2 to 1/12oz Pineapple juice
3/4 Ounce Tangeray # 10 Gin
1/2 ounce Grenadine
Shake with ice
Strain into a small rocks glass
Garnish with Lemon Wheel
Sometimes I play with old ideas in an attempt to come up with something fresh. In this case the old idea is from a the 1937 publication, Cafe Royal Cocktail Book, Coronation Edition, compiled by W.J. Tarling. I introduced a cocktail from this book in my review of Appleton Estate Reserve Rum and the cocktail is called The Celebration.
The idea of mixing gin and rum was new to me, but obviously it has a tradition back at least 80 years. So I thought I would experiment with the idea and tweak it to make a nice sweetish cocktail (not Swedish but sweetish). My idea was to come up with a more feminine cocktail that I could bring out to wow my friends. My first change was to adjust the fruit juice slightly adding just a bit of pineapple juice and decreasing the grapefruit juice. Not anything remarkable there, just a slight change in flavour profile. Then I reduced the ratio of rum to gin somewhat. Finally I unabashedly used grenadine as a substitute for groseille syrup. Each change made the drink progressively sweeter. At this point I cut the quantity of Grenadine to one half of the amount of Groseille syrup, and used a lemon wheel garnish garnish to act as a counter punch to the sweetness. I think it turned out very nicely.
The Pink Rocketa cocktail by Chip Dykstra (Aka Arctic Wolf)
2 oz White Rum (El Dorado 3 yr white is nice)
1 to 2 oz Pink Grapefruit juice
1/2 to 1/12oz Pineapple juice
3/4 Ounce Tangueray # 10 Gin
1/2 ounce Grenadine
Shake with ice
Strain into a small rocks glass
Garnish with Lemon Wheel on an Axle
If you like, dip the lemon wheel in the cocktail as you drink it.
And always remember the aim is not to drink more it is to drink better!

Adele Climbs the Funeral Music Chart (Also: There Are Funeral Music Charts)
- Music
Newly minted Bond girl, Grammy winner, and otherwise flawless songstress Adele has ascended yet another music chart, this time of the funeral-subgenre variety—the most surprising revelation here being that there is a funeral music chart. The bizarre news arrives via NME, which notes that Adele's hit single "Someone Like You" is now ranked 22nd among "Co-operative Funeralcare's chart of the top music played at funerals." For the seventh year in a row, Frank Sinatra's "My Way" is listed as the most popular. Other pop songs commonly requested to usher the fallen into the hypothetical afterlife: Bette Midler's "Wind Beneath My Wings," Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You," and most regrettably for funeral attendees, Celine Dion's Titanic anthem, "My Heart Will Go On."

Where Even The Flea Markets Crawl With Gun Dealers Federal Officials Are Hoping For The Brady Bill To End Kentucky's Reputation As Weapons R Us.
December 5, 1993
By Lee Mueller and Robert H. Campbell, KNIGHT-RIDDER NEWS SERVICE
Along with goats, dogs and rusty chain saws, a roadside flea market in Johnson County offers a dishpan full of snub-nosed Saturday night specials or a brand-new AK-47 assault rifle. Right now, Kentucky gun buyers and sellers don't worry about the Brady gun- control bill. There's no waiting. No embarrassing questions. Nothing to sign. No identification required. No serial numbers to write down. No taxes, either. Check out the rows and rows of guns for sale in the backs of pickup trucks - at least 150, by a visitor's count.
Unleash city on gun laws
May 16, 2006
PERHAPS NOW, after the murder of police officer Gary Skerski, the state legislature will make a move to allow Philadelphia to draft its own gun laws. Where are their priorities? Doesn't human life mean anything to them? They were quick to pull the trigger on their pay raises. Last year, 380 Philadelphians were murdered. At the current pace, we will surpass that appalling amount by year's end. Come on, Gov. Rendell, a Philadelphian, get their butts moving. The elections are coming in November.
Calling All Gun Laws
November 8, 2007
AS MOURNERS gathered yesterday to pay their last respects to Officer Chuck Cassidy, and to offer thanks to him and his family for making the ultimate sacrifice for the city, we can't help wondering if there will be another opportunity to thank Cassidy . . . when much-needed gun laws are passed. Cassidy's death has galvanized the city in ways that hundreds of other homicides haven't been able to. Let's hope it galvanizes lawmakers in Harrisburg to stop their cowardly lack of action on sane and common-sense gun laws.
Letters To The Editor Gun Laws
January 7, 1987
Alan S. Krug in an Op-ed Page article Dec. 23 states: "The anti-gun forces have no valid scientific data to support their contention that proposed restrictions on rifles, shotguns and handguns would reduce crime rates. " If Mr. Krug would take the trouble to consult statistics he would find that whereas each year in the United States more than 10,000 people are killed by handguns, in other civilized countries such as Britain, West Germany and Japan fewer than 100 are killed each year by handguns.
Ignoring the actual gun laws
December 13, 2007
ACCORDING to the Daily News, mall killer Robert Hawkins' step-parent/guardian Debora Maruca-Kovac told Omaha papers that the night before the slaughter, Hawkins and her sons showed her the semi-automatic used in the attack. You'd think a woman who knows this kid spent time in a mental institution for threatening to kill people, would have reported this to police. Common sense, not gun laws, would've stopped this disaster. Instead, she's being paid to be on talk shows, instead of going to jail for not reporting a crime.
Yes To Sensible Gun Laws
June 17, 1999
Today the U.S. House of Representatives should heed the public, not the gun lobby, as it votes on the most significant gun-control measures to come before it in years. Since April, Congress has been scrambling to respond to the public outrage over the massacre in a Colorado high school. Last month, the Senate, under intense pressure from voters, did an about-face and approved a modest package of controls, including mandatory background checks at gun shows. Under the Senate bill, every sale at any gun show would require a criminal background check of the buyer by the FBI. That's common sense.
Sig, gun laws already there
March 5, 2008
RE SIGNE'S recent cartoon on guns: Does she realize that every single gun crime in Philadelphia is a serious federal offense? Federal firearm law is found in the U.S. Code, Title 18, Chapter 44. These laws cover every aspect of straw-man sales, illegal purchases, illegal transfers, illegal possession, etc. Why isn't existing law being enforced? Examples: 1. Sec. 922 (a)(6): False answers on Treasury Form 4473 when buying a handgun from a federally licensed dealer, or making false oral statements, is a 10-year felony offense.
LETTERS Plenty of gun laws already
January 11, 2005
THE ARTICLE "They're taking aim at gun laws" (Jan. 8) sadly repeated the same misinformation gun-control advocates trot out every time they want to pass new laws to restrict legitimate gun ownership. Using your own clean record to purchase a gun for someone who is not allowed to own a gun is called a straw purchase. Gun-control groups would have us believe that this is legal in Pennsylvania. It is not. Under federal law, it is illegal "for any person in connection with the acquisition or attempted acquisition of any firearm knowingly to furnish misrepresented identification . . . " [18 U.S.C.
LETTERS A controlled experiment on gun laws
October 25, 2005
RE "IN PHILLY, killers stick to their guns": Commissioner Johnson was quoted as saying, "We have the most lenient gun laws in the entire nation" to explain Philadelphia's high murder rate. With all due respect, Commissioner Johnson's reasoning for Philadelphia's murder rate is fatally flawed. Pennsylvania has 66 other counties with the same laws. If Commissioner Johnson were correct, the other counties would have the same murder rate, but they do not. I don't mean to imply that the Philadelphia Police Department is to blame for Philadelphia's murder rate.

DN Editorial: Safety in the crosshairs
January 16, 2015
DO YOU believe that an ex-husband, who has threatened violence against his former wife, should be able to have a gun? Do you think a seriously mentally ill person, who is a danger to himself and others, should be able to walk into a gun shop and leave with a loaded pistol? Do you believe the city has no business banning people with guns from entering government offices? If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, you are either nuts or an officer of the National Rifle Association.

December 6, 2014
By Amy Worden, Inquirer Harrisburg Bureau
HARRISBURG - Pennsylvania Attorney General Kathleen G. Kane will not defend a new law that effectively stripped municipalities of the right to enact their own gun measures, raising the prospect that the controversial statute might not take hold. A spokeswoman on Thursday said Kane had exercised her authority to decline representing the state in a challenge to the law filed by Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and Lancaster, and area lawmakers. Instead, she is deferring to lawyers working under Gov. Corbett - who in six weeks will relinquish their offices to a new Democratic administration.
Democrats to challenge constitutionality of state gun law
November 9, 2014
By Jessica Parks, Inquirer Staff Writer
Another delay may be in store for a controversial new law allowing the National Rifle Association to sue over municipal gun ordinances. When Gov. Corbett signed the law Oct. 28, municipalities had 60 days to decide whether to repeal their ordinances or risk a costly lawsuit. But the clock was pushed back 10 days when it was discovered that Corbett had signed the wrong version of the law. Now, several leading Democrats are trying to delay the law further - or block it entirely - by challenging its constitutionality.
DN Editorial: A crisis of crises
October 23, 2014
PENNSYLVANIA is a state dealing with multiple crises. It faces a crisis in education, to be sure. And a new report by the Keystone Research Center suggests a serious jobs crisis: The state has slipped to last place among 50 states in job growth. According to data by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Pennsylvania lost 9,600 jobs in September alone. Between 2011 and 2014, the state experienced a paltry 2 percent growth in jobs. Compare that with the 22 percent growth in North Dakota, or the 11 percent growth in Texas.
Officials irked about state bill that could eliminate local gun laws
October 23, 2014
By Amy Worden, Inquirer Harrisburg Bureau
HARRISBURG - The Pennsylvania House's passage Monday of a controversial bill granting legal standing to the National Rifle Association to sue over local gun laws has put dozens of municipalities on notice. The implicit threat of the legislation, which Gov. Corbett has indicated he will sign, is: Repeal your gun ordinances or risk costly lawsuits. Word of the bill's approval in the final hour of the legislative session drew strong reaction from all corners of the southeastern part of the state.
Pa. Senate closes session with flurry of activity
October 18, 2014
By Amy Worden, Inquirer Harrisburg Bureau
HARRISBURG - The state Senate closed out its 2013-14 session by passing more than a dozen pieces of legislation, many of them crime-related, including bills covering local gun ordinances, domestic violence, and animal cruelty. Most of the bills approved Thursday are headed for Gov. Corbett's desk, but others must receive final votes in the House, which returns for its last voting day Monday. Among the most controversial pieces of legislation moved by the Senate was a measure to give legal standing to "membership organizations," including the National Rifle Association, to sue municipalities if they enact gun laws stricter than state law. Philadelphia is one of 30 municipalities that have enacted ordinances mandating the reporting of lost and stolen weapons over the last several years since efforts failed to win passage of state gun-control laws.
Philly mom won't go to jail for bringing gun to Jersey
September 26, 2014
BY JASON NARK, Daily News Staff Writer email@example.com, 215-854-5916
IT'S NOT EASY being Shaneen Allen, a single mom juggling jobs and raising two kids, while trying to avoid getting mugged again in Philly. But about 4:15 p.m. yesterday, Allen, 27, learned she had one less thing to worry about: a prison sentence for bringing her legal Pennsylvania handgun to New Jersey. The Atlantic County Prosecutor's Office, in a statement, said it had reversed a previous decision and will allow Allen to enter a pretrial intervention program for first-time offenders for her October 2013 handgun-possession arrest in Hamilton Township.
DN Editorial: Shooting blanks
September 18, 2014
USUALLY it takes us at least a week or two after Harrisburg comes back to work after the summer to get exasperated or outraged at our state lawmakers. But this time, it's taken less than 24 hours. Lawmakers returned Monday from summer break; they'll convene for 11 days between now and late October, before another break for the election. (The Senate will convene a total of 10 days.) And, no, that's not even what we're upset about. Nor is it that the cigarette tax needed for the schools still hasn't passed; it is at least moving toward a vote.
DN Editorial: No spin on this sickness
August 22, 2014
HOW LONG before Ferguson fatigue sets in? How soon before our rapt attention to the uproar over the killing of Michael Brown begins to flag? And not because we don't care. We do. It's just that we know that, in all likelihood, nothing will come of it. If we've learned anything in the aftermath of the repetitive crises that roil the nation - mass shootings, celebrity drug overdoses, police murders of innocent young black men - it's that we learn nothing. The same incidents occur and recur, and nothing of significance changes.

Vickers Limited - 1914-18 I used to work in the River Don Foundry and later, the Electric Melting Shop. In my time there the company was called BSC River Don and then Sheffield Forgemasters. I left school and became an apprentice Moulder, I then moved to the Melting Shop, where I worked on the pit side producing ingots. I was made redundant in 1987. My time at this works inspired a new line of research. The company was called Vickers Limited when the great war was fought. The men listed worked for this company and died in service during world war one. The result of this research can be found on my website http://www.stannington.webitsmart.co.uk There is information about the Hempsall family in the �Vickers Steelworks� section Please feel free to check it out. If anybody can give me more information it would be great Regards, Robert.

Over the weekend, news broke that the new trailer for The Dark Knight Rises would be attached to The Avengers when the Marvel superhero ensemble hits theaters on May 4th (in just under two weeks). A DC Comics film taking advantage of Marvel's audience seems bold, but definitely not unwise. Of course, Christopher Nolan also put a trailer for The Dark Knight in front of Iron Man a few years back, so it's not all that surprising.

What do you do when you hear an idea or belief that's different from yours?
Do you reject it and write it off as non-sense or do you check to see if there is some merit?
Most people are very stubborn when it comes to their beliefs, especially us christians. All of our lives, we've been trained to think a certain way about God and told that if anything differs from what we've been taught — it's a sin. And most of us carry these childhood beliefs into our adulthood, without ever challenging or attempting to discover what christianity is all about for ourselves.
I've known many people, some who are much older than I am, that go to church every single day without ever missing a service, but still don't know who God is. They just go to church because that's what they've been taught to do and they don't want to disappoint their parents. But they don't ever read their bibles or spend anytime with God so they don't know if what the pastor is preaching to them is actually in the bible or not. Therefore everything they do in Jesus name goes in vain because they don't have a real relationship with God.
Crazy Huh? Who would want to live like that? What's the purpose in going to church or calling yourself a christian if you don't really know God. That's like calling someone your wife or husband, and being faithful to them, but you've never meant before — it doesn't make sense. But this is exactly how many people who call themselves christians are living today.
Although I'm a christian and I believe that Jesus is the only way into Heaven, I don't believe in forcing people to accept Him into their lives based on the fact that I've accepted him in mines. I believe that everyone has to find Jesus on their own in order for their walk with the Lord to be real and not phony.
People who let others do their thinking for them, who will not form an opinion of their own until they are sure that what they will say will be meant with approval and acceptance by their peers, don't accomplish much in life. Not just in the areas of their religion or their faith in God, but in every area of their life.
Anyone who has ever achieved anything worth having, has had to develop the courage to challenge mainstream ideas and beliefs to get where they are today — me included.
The Effects of Thinking Differently
Back in the day, when i was dealing drugs on the streets and doing what all my friends were doing, I got in all sorts of trouble with the law and been in one too many life or death situations. That's what thinking like everyone else got me.
But since I found Jesus, I have developed the courage to just be who God created me to be. And having the courage to go against the grain and think differently than everyone else has bettered my life in every area:
- I stopped smoking weed, which increased my alertness, attentiveness, and awareness, as well as drastically reducing my memory.
- I started reading the bible and personal development books that help me renew my mind and transform me into a much better person than I was before.
- I became more happier when I simplified my life and stopped believing what the majority of people believe, that having more stuff makes you happier and more secure.
- I changed my career by starting this blog, which lead me to writing a book and mentoring youths.
There are many more examples I could use, but I think you get the point.
And I don't list my personal achievements to brag — but to share with you what I believe is the key to living authentically: having the courage to think differently.
If you never stand out from the crowd, you will always be average. And God didn't create you to be average, He created you to be extraordinary. But in order for you to become extraordinary, you have to leave your ordinary ways of thinking behind you.
As Paul said "if I were still trying to please man, I would not be a follower of Christ". You can't be a follower of Jesus and be a follower of people at the same time. You are either one or the other.
Non-Conforming To The World
I find it crazy and ridiculous when people feel they're at a social disadvantage if they think differently from everyone else in a social situation, as if they have to conform to fit in.
But conformity is what puts you at a social disadvantage, not being different. Being different is a Godsend, and gives you the social advantage.
Take me for example: As a former drug dealer and street thug, my background puts me at a huge social advantage when I'm chatting with street cats, compared to other christians who don't have my background. When they hear my story and where I come from, they are intrigued, and that often leads us into conservations about life, goals, entrepreneurship, and Christ. They feel comfortable opening up to me because I am DIFFERENT from other christians and my difference, enables me to make a difference.
So where do you tend to violate social expectations in your life? What have you been through in your past that makes you different from other christians?
Whatever that is, use it to gain the social advantage of people you meet along the way who have gone through similar things. You'll be amazed at the difference you are able to make in people's lives by just being different. You may even make new friends over your differences. Best of all, people will remember you. They'll forget everyone else who acts like they'd expect. But you, they will remember.
So if you think differently than other people in your social circles, own that. Be proud of yourself for having the courage to think differently from everybody else and see it for the huge advantage it truly is. Not only is being different a blessing, it's what God created you for.
Your difference is your path to destiny. And the only way to reach it, is to be it.

We are greatly saddened to move in this direction after our employees have continually demonstrated only the highest level of dedication and commitment. However, in order to meet our goals on other high priority programs, we have to refocus our resources as quickly as possible. I want to sincerely thank the departing employees for their tremendous efforts and wish them great success in the future," said Gary Lyons President & CEO. "We will maintain our focus on determining the path forward with indiplon after interactions with the FDA, and our efforts on GnRH, as we move expeditiously toward partnering this program. We will also continue with focused research and development efforts aimed at treating diseases of the central nervous and endocrine systems. We intend to continue to conservatively manage our cash resources and review collaborative alternatives to fund the advancement of our pipeline."
The Company is preparing a formal meeting request to the FDA to discuss the 2007 Approvable Letter. We have notified FDA that we would be submitting this formal request.
