Cattle prod
A cattle prod, also called a stock prod, is a handheld device commonly used to make cattle or other livestock move by striking or poking them. An electric cattle prod is a stick with electrodes on the end which is used to make cattle move through a relatively high-voltage, low-current electric shock. The electric cattle prod is said to have been invented by Texas cattle baron Robert J. Kleberg, Jr.[1][2] of the King Ranch around 1930, although versions were sold as early as 1917 (see image below)
Terminology differences[edit]
Cattle prods are the precursor to direct contact electric stun guns used against humans, and their basic operating principles are the same: dual surface electrodes produce a very high voltage/very low amperage electric arc between them, which, when pressed against conductive skin, produces a painful but superficial electric shock that motivates the target to cease their current activity and instinctively move in the direction opposite the source of the pain. The major differences are primarily in the matter of size and power: cattle prods tend to have a higher electric current and a longer handle than stun guns, which is helpful when dealing with very large, powerful animals.
Ranchers and farmers typically use the term "cattle prods" mainly to refer to simple non-electrified fiberglass or metal goads used to physically encourage cattle into motion; the majority of people living outside of rural areas use the term 'cattle prod' exclusively for the electrified variant. Most ranchers and farmers refer to electric cattle prods as "hotshots"[citation needed] (this is an example of a genericized trademark; one of the most prominent brands of electric prod is Hot-Shot).[3]
Regular prods[edit]
|This section does not cite any references or sources. (December 2008)
Regular cattle prods can actually be anything from a baton (goad) or piece of pipe properly wired, to a manufactured fiberglass rod with a rubber handle or even a rectangular shaped device similar to today's stun guns, which also feature batons. Most prods use two metal tips, but some are rubberized for herding stubborn animals. A Wiffleball bat is also often used as an effective prod because the hollow plastic bat makes a sharp ringing sound when slapped against the skin.
Unlike hotshots,which produce high voltage and can be effective on humans, regular cattle prods used on animals are simply used to tap, strike, or poke an animal (usually on the flanks), depending on how stubborn the animal is. Sometimes, a prod can be used as a sort of "extended fence", allowing one to simply intimidate skittish animals away from open gates or downed fences without having to touch them.
Electric prods[edit]
A hotshot is typically cylindrical, and can carry an open electric current at the "shock end" when activated. The electric current at the shock end runs through two metal electrodes. Anything that touches the electric current receives a high-voltage low-current shock, not strong enough to kill a human or a large animal such as a cow or sheep from short-term exposure, but strong enough to cause significant pain.
The electric cattle prod is designed to apply a painful shock to cattle, and thus "prod" them along; the pain stimulates movement. Some higher-voltage prods can interfere with radio and CB radio reception when activated.[citation needed]
There are various designs of electric cattle prods. Their shape is often subject to guidelines of what can easily be used and handled. They range in length from six inches (usually of a more encased rectangular prism design like a stun gun), to up to six feet. As the precursor of stun guns, cattle prods also have a wide range of voltage with enough amperage to operate in the same manner as a stun gun does against humans. A stun gun is nothing more than a beefed up cattle prod and both can be used on humans or animals by design. Whether it's called a cattle prod or a stun gun, both units are shaped for easy carry and function in the same manner against animals or humans. Most are simple designs powered by 9-volt or a combination of other types of batteries. Anything out of that range is usually too heavy and unwieldy for practical use. Another typical design is a box containing a large battery (or battery pack) at the handle end and wires embedded in a fibreglass rod, ending with two electrodes in a rubber tip. This design is well-suited for use as a regular cattle prod.
The use of electric cattle prods has been debated by many people.[4][5] Organizations such as PETA contend that the use of cattle prods is as much mentally harmful as it is physically.[6] Most farmers contend that the short shock is minutely felt, and soon forgotten.[7]
Usage on humans for torture and treatment[edit]
Cattle prods today are designed with a high range of voltage. Recently a 5-million volt cattle prod was designed, which can be used on animals or humans and have the same incapacitating effect as a stun gun. Prior to the development of stun batons and the taser, electric cattle prods were also used on humans in varying degrees. Their first common usage on humans occurred during the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s; prods were first adopted by police officers in Alabama to use on black protesters and agencies elsewhere followed; Hotshot later developed an electric police baton.[3] A more recent example of human torture with a cattle prod came to surface when a video was disclosed showing Issa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the brother of crown prince of Abu Dhabi inserting a cattle prod in an Afghan business associate's anus after falling out with him.[8] An electric prod can be an effective torture device for humans and animals alike.[9] If applied continuously to the skin, the current eventually causes heating, searing, burning, and scarring of skin at the contact point.
In the movie Jackass 3D Johnny Knoxville set up a maze for his friends to go through made of cattle prods and tasers. At the 1998 Starrcade pay-per-view Scott Hall used a cattle prod on Bill Goldberg allowing his friend Kevin Nash to win the World Heavyweight Championship. In the movie Casino a cheater's card playing is interrupted by a shock from a cattle prod.
The picana is an electric prod based originally on the cattle prod but designed specifically for human torture. It works at very high voltage and low current so as to maximise pain and minimise the physical marks left on the victim. Among its advantages over other torture devices is that it is portable, easy to use, and allows the torturer to localize the electric shocks to the most sensitive places on the body, where they cause intense pain that can be repeated many times.
Electric prods have been used for the control of adverse self-injuring behavior in mentally handicapped people. This use is regarded by some advocates to be more effective than drugs since the experience of a shock is very short and temporary while using a drug may have long-lasting sedative effects.[10]
Cattle can be difficult to move and direct for a variety of reasons. Prods can be useful for moving stubborn or aggressive animals,[11] but often cattle will not move forward when they are fearful of something they see, hear, or smell. Removal of these distractions or hiding them, such as with solid wall partitions, can greatly reduce animal handling problems,;[12] however, cattle handlers cannot completely overcome the animal's decision not to move forward. After a few years of inoculations, many cows often realize that, if they can avoid certain areas, they will not get inoculated or treated. This is dangerous and unhealthy for the animal itself, and it is also dangerous for the herd since a non-vaccinated or sick animal can become infective to the remainder of the animals particularly the baby animals. If the animals are relaxed and comfortable with the handler and feel safe in the working environment, the cattle are in fact quite friendly and curious, and will happily follow the handler without any need for forceful punishment unless, at 1200-1800 pounds, they decide they do not want to move into the treatment area, and then they refuse. Moving 1200-1800 pounds of unwilling animal becomes impossible, and when some animals see people only once a year when calves are weaned and cattle are vaccinated, tthey are not friendly and curious and willing but fearful and nervous and wary, and they refuse to cooperate. A rancher might then decide, for the good of everyone involved, to use a hotshot to get the cow into an area to be treated because a 1200-1800 pound animal can be very dangerous to the people trying to care for it as well as itself if it is not properly restrained. Because animals need inoculations and treatments for sickness and other care, ranchers try to make the best choices for the animals and humans involved; however, sometimes the best choice does not happen, and every year, hundreds of people are killed by cattle. Since a hotshot, when applied properly, only bites the animal mildly, most animals will take a small jump step when it is applied. Although similar in function to a tazer, there is little comparison to a person being knocked onto the ground and writhing from the pain and electrical stimulus compared with a cow hopping 1-4" off the ground with its back legs and then looking around curiously to see why they are being "bitten" with an electrical shock. And having this applied to get them treated or keep them healthy is much preferred to taking them to market for all involved.
By studying the psychology of the animals and redesigning the working environment it is possible to handle the animals without the need for brute force and causing pain and suffering to the animal in many, but not all, cases. Significant work in this regard has been done by Colorado State University professor Temple Grandin to study how cattle perceive the environment around them and to design better livestock slaughterhouse handling systems that do not induce fear into the animal.[13] Many ranchers and cattle handlers are reading and follow Dr. Grandin's advice as most everyone who owns cattle wants to care properly for their animals so that the animals can perform as anticipated and so that the animal is content, healthy and well cared for in its environment.
Food quality of gently handled animals[edit]
Beef producers acknowledge that rough handling methods should be avoided when animals are being sent to slaughter, and that it is to the benefit of the rancher to study ways to manage animals in a calm manner without rough handling and which can calmly direct animals in the desired direction without excessive force or excitement.[14]
Overly excited animals have a greater potential to slip and fall, leading to bruising of the skin and muscle, and a poor meat grade by the packing plant meat inspectors. Likewise, animals that are startled and excited to the point of running into barriers or other animals can cause deep flesh wounds if the area where they are handled is not properly made, which results in scar tissue and the loss of valuable meat sections in the slaughtering and processing phase. Stressed animals are also more likely to become ill.[11] And animals that are acting badly can be a serious danger to people. Nobody wants an animal to be abused unless the person is untrained in what abuse to an animal is and therefore does not understand that their action is abusive. Although most people assume that kicking a living being is not right, when they see the animals themselves kicking each other, they might assume that it is okay for them to kick the animals too. Therefore, monitoring of employees by senior employees should be done until the senior employees believe that the newer employee will be responsible animal handlers. Abuse of animals may also show a lack of being mentally well. Cattle owners do not want the mentally ill, abusive person working with their animals because it is a danger to all involved. So upon discovery of abuse toward their animals, cattle owners most often, immediately fire those employees that do not take proper care of their animals.
Although nearly all ranchers and cattle handlers are concerned about animal welfare, even if an owner is not sensitive enough to the animals' well being, cattle are very expensive, and it is in the best interest of the people and the cattle that they are handled with care and concern. Anyone who owns cattle cannot afford to mishandle cattle because even a compassionless person realizes that stress and poor handling causes loss of health, loss of time in handling, man hours in treatment and therefore loss of money. Thus, ranchers and cattle handlers are highly motivated to care for animals properly. In addition, it can be that the animal that is mistreated becomes a danger to humans. If they begin to perceive humans as a threat, they might run thirty yards just to knock a human down and even try to kill that person. No cattle handler wants to train animals to become aggressive or mean, and so the wise cattle handlers treat animals with care and concern for the safety of the animals and the people involved.

Use this plugin to easily create surveys and graded quizzes. You can track the results and guide users to different locations based on their scores.
this plugin is not very usefull, you can only make 1 type of question, with one answer.
You can't do anything with the free version.
Uninstalled after 30 seconds.
Not much we can use in free so not sure what extended version will have.
Straight out of the box, the example setup exposes one question. When radio button is selected to choose an answer, nothing happens. "Back" button in first question is bizarre. "Next" does not lead to next question, it leads to "javascript:void(0).
Nice concept, but simply version I downloaded simply did not work.
Just checked the version and any extra feature needs the pro-version. How can you really test if everything is limited. Dont bother in downloading.
I have not tested this plugin seriously, because the fact that I had to go to Paypal to find out that the premium version cost 50 bucks has turned me off.
This plugin is well coded and has a clean and simple interface.
The reason why I rank it as a 1 out of 5 is because, despite the name, it is a quiz tool not a survey tool. As you enter questions you give a point value to each answer then as the user submits their answers they are given a final score and can be directed to different pages based on their score. This is perfect if you are quizzing.
If, however, you want to survey users this plug-in falls short because you cannot export the user responses. The export that comes with the $50 expanded version just gets you high level details like when the quiz was taken, what their score was, and where they were re-directed to.
This is kinda important for the purposes of a survey. Unfortunately, this shortcoming does not become apparent until after you've paid your $50.
I would change my ranking from a 1 to a 4 if a second export was added so that the specific user response data could be obtained.
I would then change my ranking to a 5 if a couple of other enhancements were added:
1 - Allow an option for the user to enter an "other" answer
2 - Add a ranking question type. E.G. "Put the following items in order of preference."
Summary: If your intent is to conduct surveys, then "WordPress Simple SURVEY" is <u>not</u> the plug-in you want. Instead I would refer you to Google forms. If you wanted a WordPress plugin that keeps the data internal to your local database then I would refer you to "Quiz Master Next" by Frank Corso. This plugin is FREE and while it is also a quiz tool and has some of the same issues, the author is responsive and already committed to added an export of specific user responses.
Normal hosts have mod_deflate enabled. This plugin will NOT work with GZIP / mod_deflate enabled.
В конечной форме 2 поля ввести нельзя. Точнее можно, но не видно, что вводишь. Задумка хорошая, но реализация не очень.
Downloaded this and found out AFTER that it only allows you to create a SINGLE survey/quiz. No where did here it state it didn't support multiple surveys. The extended version states it allows for multiple quizzes but you must go to their product page to see it. Very disappointed. DO NOT WANT.
You must log in to submit a review. You can also log in or register using the form near the top of this page.

Philadelphia Flyers (23-12-9) at Florida Panthers (20-16-6), 7:30 p.m.
(Sports Network) - After a five-day layoff, the Florida Panthers will try to extend their points streak to six games tonight when they welcome the Philadelphia Flyers to BankAtlantic Center.
The Panthers have scored at least four goals in each of their last five games, going 4-0-1 in that span on the heels of four straight losses. Florida is outscoring its opponents 27-15 in that span and is coming off an 8-4 victory over Atlanta on Saturday.
Ville Peltonen scored twice and Radek Dvorak added a goal and two assists, as the eight goals scored by the Panthers were the most in a single game since an 8-0 win over Toronto on February 5, 2008. Peltonen's big game came at a cost, as he suffered a broken right foot. He finished the contest but will miss at least two weeks due to the injury.
Michael Frolik, David Booth and Nathan Horton each had a goal and a helper, while Jay Bouwmeester and Cory Stillman also lit the lamp for the Panthers, who have won three in a row. Booth, who leads Florida with 18 goals and 28 points, has scored in two straight and three of his last four games. He has an assist in six straight games and six goals and seven helpers over an eight- game points streak.
Gregory Campbell ended with three assists and was named the NHL's third star back on Monday. He had two goals and four helpers last week with a plus-six rating.
Tomas Vokoun turned aside 28-of-32 shots for Florida, which trails Carolina by one point for second place in the Southeast Division. Vokoun is 3-4-0 with a pair of ties and a 2.88 goals against average in his career versus the Flyers.
Florida has won four of its last six as the host and wraps a three-game homestand tonight. The Panthers are 10-5-3 overall at BankAtlantic Center this year and after playing in Tampa on Saturday will return home for four straight.
The Flyers wrap a two-game trip in the Sunshine State tonight. They were in Tampa themselves last night, but left town with a 4-1 defeat. Joffrey Lupul gave Philadelphia an early lead, but the Lightning scored three times in a two-plus minute span in the second frame to charge ahead.
Philadelphia again failed to overtake the Rangers for first place in the Atlantic Division and remains one point behind New York in the standings.
Martin Biron gave up four goals on 44 shots for the Flyers, who have lost two consecutive games and four of their last six (2-2-2). Backup Antero Niittymaki is likely to face Florida's red-hot offense tonight. Niittymaki hasn't played since January 3 in part due to a groin injury and is 3-2-1 with a 2.07 GAA lifetime versus Florida.
Niittymaki might not have Philadelphia's best defenseman in front of him, as Kimmo Timonen is day-to-day after suffering a facial injury in Thursday night's contest. He left the game midway through the first period after getting hit by a deflected puck and did not return.
Philadelphia will also skate again without Daniel Briere, who will play the second contest of a two-game rehab assignment tonight with the Phantoms of the American Hockey League. In only nine games played this season due to groin and abdominal issues, Briere has five goals and four assists.
Briere could rejoin the Flyers at home versus Atlanta next Wednesday. Following that test, Philadelphia returns to Florida to begin a three-game swing. The Flyers have lost seven of their last nine on the road (2-4-3) and are 9-7-6 as the visiting club this year.
This is the first of four meetings between the Flyers and Panthers this year after they split their season series a year ago. Florida has won six of the last eight meetings, though, and three of the last four as the host.

Staining window muntins--how to get excess off glass?
Hi, I'm staining the interior of a fixed (non-opening) pine window. To get it to blend with other woodwork in the house, i'm starting with a 5% dewaxed shellac washcoat, then some gel stain, then sealing with 2# cut dewaxed shellac (zinnser seal coat), then finishing up with general finishes topcoat wiping varnish, which may or may not get a bit of pigment in it if necessary for final tint matching.
The gel and varnish are going on with a rag; the shellac steps will be done with a brush.
I'm not worried about getting shellac off the glass, but the rag application of the gel and varnish steps is going to be messy. So I think I'll tape the glass, but still, there will probably be bleeding along the edges. Should I be nervous about scratching the glass if I use a razor blade to get the bleed off? Any other suggestions for getting the gel and varnish off the glass?
Is there a better way to approach this overall? I did 4 windows 3 years ago, except last step was polyurethane instead of varnish because I didn't know better at the time, and I still haven't got the edges of the window glass looking nice (bc I'm nervous with the razor, and suspect that nothing else will work on the polyurethane at this point.)
Could one of you power posters just do a vulcan mind meld with me? I never knew how much I didn't know until I started browsing this forum :-)
Get a holder for single edged razor blades. Many auto parts stores have a type that has blade storage in the handle and a long shaft. I like that type better than the fold away metal holders.
Use the scrapers as soon after removing the tape and when the finish has started to set. Material will have a tendency to stick to the blade of the razor. Getting it off safely can be done by having a rag handy. Lay the rag on a flat surface, hold the far end, and drag the blade away from the hand to clean.

Arizona Coyotes
'Yotes Notes: Phoenix shut out in the Music City
Sure, you could read the box score and know who won, but we all know that won't tell you everything that happened in a hockey game. So, we will give you 'Yotes Notes, providing you with the analysis, quotes and notes from the Coyotes' 3-0 loss to the Predators on February 14.
The Good:
When the offense isn't going well, as was the case Thursday night, goaltender Mike Smith has not had a problem being the best player on the ice for the Coyotes.
While Smith gave up three late goals that ultimately cost Phoenix the game in Nashville, the Coyotes netminder was the sole reason the team was even in the game to begin with.
Smith, who saved 14 shots in just the second period, kept the game tight with several nifty glove and stick saves.
The Coyotes didn't have a problem possessing the puck inside Bridgestone Arena, as centers Boyd Gordon and Antoine Vermette combined to win 19 of 24 faceoffs.
The Bad:
The Coyotes struggles on the power play (0-of-4) continued, but the more persistent problem on the road trip was their overall inability to score the puck.
While Phoenix notched four out of a possible six points on the three-game road swing, Dave Tippett's squad scored just two goals in regulation.
In their previous battle with the Predators this season, the Coyotes made Pekka Rinne look pedestrian (gave up four goals). Thursday night, he looked like a reigning Vezina Trophy finalist (19 saves and a shutout). Rinne now has 28 shutouts, which is the most by any goaltender since the start of 2008-09 season.
� Phoenix is now 1-4-0 on the season against teams they played (Chicago, Los Angeles and Nashville) in the 2012 Stanley Cup Playoffs.
� In six February games, Mike Smith has given up just 12 goals.
� Veteran Steve Sullivan has struggled offensively of late. The Coyotes' main free agent acquisition has been held pointless in seven straight games.
Up Next:
The Coyotes will return to Jobing.com Arena to play the Columbus Blue Jackets on Saturday, February 16. The game is scheduled to start at 7:00 p.m. MST.

Gallup Results Present Problems For Both Agendas
Gallup has released some interesting poll findings showing that both sides of the aisle have their work cut out for them if they're going to keep Americans happy.
Released Thursday, the Gallup: results show: that only 37% of Americans favor a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants, while 62% want to see measure that will halt illegal immigration.
And, 70% want the tax code simplified to lower rates and an elimination of deductions and loopholes, while less than half (47%) support Pres. Obama's proposal to increase taxes on those households with incomes of $250,000 or more.
Not good news for liberal politicians seeking to open borders and raise revenue.
But, conservatives have challenges, too. Fully 88 percent of Gallup respondents support saving the: biggest entitlement programs, while 72 percent says there needs to be spending cuts.
As the fiscal cliff looms, while sequestration means massive cuts to the nation's military, only 29 percent favor this.
So,: it seems that Democrats don't have: popular support to pursue their push to raise taxes, and Republicans don't seem to be pushed by Americans to support legislation that calls for amnesty. : The alternative Dream Act from Sen. Marco Rubio, which already splits the conference, is a prime example.
Lastly, Americans want to see a simpler tax code and spending cuts, but don't want government messing around with their Medicare.

Lecture on the History of Everett Mansion, One of Bennington's Architectural Gems, at Southern Vermont College
January 12, 2012
In April 1911, 32 Italian stoneworkers came to Bennington, Vt., to start construction for the summer home of wealthy industrialist, Edward Everett, on the east side of Mount Anthony. Working around the clock, hand-cutting and moving local granite into place, the workers completed the exterior of the 27-room, Norman castle-style mansion in just eight months--something that, even with the modern equipment of today, seems nearly impossible. The Everett Mansion, still a breathtaking architectural gem listed on the National Register of Historic Places, now houses the administrative offices and classrooms at Southern Vermont College.
In celebration of Everett Mansion's 100th Anniversary, SVC hosted a lecture on the architecture and history of the Mansion on February 7 in the Everett Theatre on campus. The lecture featured three noted historians: Glenn M. Andres, Professor, History of Art and Architecture at Middlebury College; Tyler Resch, Historian at the Bennington Museum; and Susanne Warren, Architectural Historian and Library Director at John G. McCullough Free Library in North Bennington. The lecture was part of the College's themed series, "Inspiring History: Shaping the Future." This lecture is free and open to the public. A reception followed in the Burgdorff Gallery at which guests spoke directly with the speakers.
Professor Andres provided context of the early 1900s, the historical tastes fostered by the Ecole des Beaux Arts and the range of George Totten, one of Washington's most prolific and skilled architects in the Gilded Age. Since 1970, Professor Andres has taught at Middlebury College, primarily in the areas of architectural and urban history. His research spans from the Italian Renaissance through 19th century America to postmodernism. He has published on Renaissance villas, the architecture of Florence, New England meeting houses, Vermont regional architecture, American modernism, and the work of Hardy Holzman Pfeiffer.
Resch spoke about Edward Everett and his family, the businesses, and Everett's connection to the area. A former newspaper and magazine editor and columnist, Resch has written or edited 12 books of regional historical interest, including "The Shires of Bennington," "Dorset," and "Deed of Gift: The Putnam Hospital Story." As Historian at the Bennington Museum, Resch communicates with a variety of people from many places, digging into historical and biographical issues including genealogy, particularly for descendants of early Vermont settlers.
Warren, who wrote the application for the Mansion to be on the National Register, talked about special features of the building. Prior to her position as Library Director at the McCullough Free Library (built in 1921), Warren was the Technical Services Coordinator at The Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute in Williamstown, Mass. She has taught architectural history at the University of Vermont and Union College and has worked as an architectural historian. She was also a partner in Lanzi/Warren Associates in Bennington, a consulting firm specializing in information management for the cultural heritage community.

New Delhi, India (PRWEB) November 27, 2012
Shankar Ehsaan Loy, India's leading music composers, has been roped in by Nescafe for their new commercial - "The Morning Band". This adds to a series of commercials by Purab Kohli and Deepika Padukone.
Mornings are always said to be the best part of the day, and Nescafe has always believed in striving to make your mornings better. Hence, when the concept of 'The Morning Band' took form, not many were surprised.
The Morning Band, as a concept, needs little explanation. It is a band that livens up your morning, just like the first cup of coffee. Since Deepika and Purab Kohli have been associated with the coffee major for quite some time now, it seemed only natural that they be the ones to introduce The Morning Band.

Howard Zinn Topics
Howard Zinn, one of the country's most celebrated historians, died of a heart attack January 27, 2010, in Santa Monica, California. He was 87 years old. His classic work, A People's History of the United States, changed the way we look at history in America. First published a quarter of a century ago, the book has sold over a million copies and continues to sell more copies each successive year.
Over the years, Howard Zinn has been a frequent guest on Democracy Now! A collection of his appearances is listed below.
- Howard Zinn is arguably one of the most important historians in the United States today. But that's not because he's followed the traditional route to influence and political power of historians before him. Instead, Howard Zinn has established himself as a "historian from below" — one who writes and chronicles the past from the point of view of those who have been exploited politically and economically.

In this July 12, 1995 file photo, Mumia Abu-Jamal leaves Philadelphia's City Hall after a hearing.
(Pottsville) -- Family members and supporters of Mumia Abu-Jamal say the former death row inmate was rushed to a Pennsylvania hospital to be treated for complications from diabetes.
Abu-Jamal's wife, brother and lawyers spoke outside Schuylkill Medical Center in Pottsville, where he was taken Monday for treatment.
They say his blood sugar was dangerously high and he could have slipped into a diabetic coma.
Abu-Jamal is a former Black Panther serving life in prison for the 1981 murder of white Philadelphia Officer Daniel Faulkner.
His conviction was upheld through years of appeals, but he has gained international support for his claim that he's the victim of a racist justice system.
His family is complaining that state prison officials failed to provide him with proper medical care.
An earlier story is below:
Former death row inmate Mumia Abu-Jamal has been hospitalized, but his lawyer says prison officials won't tell him why.
Attorney Bret Grote says his client is in the critical care unit of a Schuylkill County hospital.
Abu-Jamal is a former Black Panther serving life in prison for the 1981 murder of white Philadelphia police Officer Daniel Faulkner.
His conviction was upheld through years of appeals, but he has gained international support for his claim that he's the victim of a racist justice system.
Grote says neither he nor Abu-Jamal's brother, Keith Cook, have been allowed in to see him.
Prison officials won't comment on inmate medical conditions or hospitalizations.
A spokesman for Pottsville's Schuylkill Medical Center says he had no information about Abu-Jamal.]]>
(Harrisburg) -- Questions for Governor Tom Wolf are piling up as he prepares to hold a "Facebook Town Hall.''
People were invited to post questions about Wolf's agenda in advance of Tuesday's online conversation -- a follow-up to the Twitter Town Hall that the Democrat hosted last month.
Hours before the scheduled 1:30 p.m. opening of the Facebook event, dozens of questions are already posted.
They cover a wide range of topics, including the governor's far-reaching plan to overhaul the state tax system, school funding, the legalization of medical marijuana and campaign spending.
People who want to participate can post questions.
The event will be live streamed.]]>
(Pittsburgh) -- For his 11 years of state government service, former Republican Governor Tom Corbett is collecting a pension of nearly $40,000.
The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports Corbett's $38,765 state pension is based on a final average salary of $186,204.
The amount reflects annual cost-of-living raises Corbett declined as salary.
Corbett served over a year as an appointed attorney general, six years as an elected attorney general and four years as governor before his defeat by Democrat Tom Wolf.
Records show the former governor also withdrew a $118,000 lump-sum payment based on his contributions, with four percent interested earned.
Corbett had pushed to overhaul the state's pension system.
His former press secretary says had Corbett been successful, he would have been willing to convert his guaranteed pension to a 401(k)-type plan.]]>
(Shamokin) -- Police say a Northumberland County man turned his mother's day care center into a heroin den once the kids left for the day.
Ryan Varano has told police he and another man would use Jesus' Lil Helpers Daycare in Shamokin to sell and use heroin on nights and weekends.
Police say they used children's tables, chairs and cabinets to package heroin and load syringes.
The 28-year-old and two other men were arrested Saturday after someone at the daycare building called police to report an overdose.
Police and emergency workers revived 37-year-old Christian Kehler with CPR and naloxone.
Varano, Kehler and Frederick Russo are charged with criminal conspiracy and possession with intent to deliver.
Online court records didn't include information on lawyers to comment on the charges.
(Lancaster) -- Four elementary school students were taken to the hospital with minor injuries after a pickup truck collided with their bus in Lancaster County.
The bus driver and 22 other Lampeter-Strasburg School District students were not hurt in the crash around 4:00 p.m. Monday in West Lampeter Township.
Police say the 72-year-old driver of a Chevrolet Silverado pickup took his foot off the brake when something spilled in the vehicle, allowing it to drift in the path of the school bus.
The man wasn't hurt.
Authorities describe the crash as an accident. They say there was no evidence of alcohol being involved or of the man having a medical issue.
Students on the bus were from Lampeter Elementary School and Hans Herr Elementary.]]>
File Photo: Bucknell coach Dave Paulson shouts from the bench in the first half of an NCAA college basketball game against Villanova, November 20, 2014.
(Fairfax, Va.) -- Bucknell is in the market for a new men's basketball coach.
Dave Paulsen has left the Bison to accept the post at George Mason.
Paulsen was a three-time Patriot League coach of the year at Bucknell, taking the Bison to the NCAA Tournament twice.
He went 134-94 at Bucknell, where he arrived in 2008.
Before his time with the Bison, Paulsen coached Williams, his alma mater, for eight seasons and won the 2003 Division III championship.
George Mason announced his hiring Monday, two weeks after the school fired Paul Hewitt, who went 66-67 in four seasons.
It went 9-22 this season, including 4-14 in the Atlantic 10, and lost their opening game in the conference tournament.
Hewitt had replaced Jim Larranaga, who led the Patriots to the Final Four in 2006 and was hired in 2011 by Miami.
(Morgantown) --State police say an explosion at a midstate manufacturing plant that killed a Lancaster County worker over the weekend appears to have been accidental, but the exact cause is still being sought.
Emergency crews in Berks County were called to the Timet titanium plant in Caernarvon Township just before 11 p.m. Friday. Officials said 27-year-old Jacob Lopez of Ephrata was pronounced dead shortly before 12:30 a.m. Saturday.
Police at the Reading barracks say a five- or six-foot-tall boiler that was 20 to 25 feet in diameter exploded while using titanium for production, injuring several other people and damaging the building.
Police said "the exact cause of the explosion and the reason for ignition" remain under investigation. The federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration is also investigating.
An earlier story is below:
A Lancaster County man has died after an explosion at a Berks County manufacturing plant.
Emergency crews in Berks County were called to the Timet titanium plant in Caernarvon Township just before 11:00 p.m. Friday.
Deputy Coroner Christopher Chesonis pronounced 27-year-old Jacob Lopez of Ephrata dead shortly before 12:30 a.m. Saturday.
At least one other person was transported to Reading Hospital for treatment.
Township police officer Matthew Menna says the blast happened in the melt shop of the plant, but there was no fire by the time officers arrived.
The state police fire marshal's office is investigating the cause of the explosion.]]>
Paul Bowen, left, arrives for a viewing for former Philadelphia Eagles' Chuck Bednarik, a Pro Football Hall of Famer and one of the last great two-way NFL players, Thursday in Bethlehem.
(Bethlehem) -- Hall of Famer Chuck Bednarik is being remembered as a major figure in the history of the NFL and one of the Philadelphia Eagles' greatest players.
Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie was among the mourners at a public viewing Thursday for Bednarik in Bethlehem.
He described Bednarik as someone who exhibited toughness, love of the game, pride and humility.
Lurie says the Eagles are working on plans to honor him next season.
Bednarik was known as "Concrete Charlie.''
The star linebacker and center played for the Eagles from 1949 to 1962.
He helped the Eagles win the 1960 NFL championship, tackling Green Bay's Jim Taylor on the final play to seal the victory.
The Bethlehem native died Saturday at an assisted living facility at the age of 89.
New York Giants' Frank Gifford lies on field as play continues after he was Knocked unconscious by Philadelphia's Chuck Bednarik (60) as Gifford was carrying the ball. Play came in fourth quarter of game at New York's Yankee Stadium, November 21, 1960. Eagle's Chuck Weber is diving on the ball.
File Photo: The Phoenix wooden roller coaster at Knoebel's Amusement Resort in Elysburg
(Elysburg) -- A worker is recovering from a broken hand and staples in his head after being struck by a newly built roller coaster during testing at a Northumberland County amusement park.
A Knoebels Amusement Resort spokeswoman says the company employee was struck by the Impulse roller coaster Thursday morning.
Spokeswoman Stacy Ososkie says the man was beside the track when he was hit by a passing car.
She says family members report a CT scan did not show signs of more serious injuries.
The 99-foot-high coaster at the park in Elysburg is the largest project in Knoebel's history.
The accident occurred at the lowest point of the ride in an area that isn't accessible to the public.
Testing is on hold while park officials examine what occurred to determine whether it's safe to resume.]]>
Heinz Field
(Pittsburgh) -- The Pittsburgh Steelers' football stadium will keep the name Heinz Field despite the company's planned merger with Kraft Foods Group.
Pittsburgh-based H.J. Heinz Co. says if the merger announced Wednesday is approved, the new company will be Kraft Heinz Company.
But Heinz senior vice president Michael Mullen confirms that the stadium will remain named Heinz Field.
The Heinz Company signed a $57 million, 20-year naming rights deal when the stadium opened in 2001.
That means the stadium will keep the name for at least six more years.]]>
(Lancaster) -- The latest Franklin and Marshall College Poll shows support for the key elements of Governor Tom Wolf's Budget proposal.
Fifty-nine percent of voters surveyed support Wolf's spending plan, while 27 percent rank funding education as their top priority.
But, Poll Director Terry Madonna says the numbers aren't quite there for the governor himself. Only 38 percent of respondents think Pennsylvania's chief executive is doing an "excellent" or "good" job.
"So this is a benchmark. It's a starting point. The bigger takeaway is that a lot of voters still have not formed an opinion about Governor Wolf," he says. "That over time will change and we'll have to see whether it gets better or worse."
Madonna notes the first year in office is usually very tough for a governor, because he has an agenda the public isn't sure will be approved by the legislature.
"What the voters think about the kind of job he's doing is intimately connected with his ability to be effective, to provide leadership, to get his agenda through the legislature and to do it in a way that voters largely respond to," he says.
When it comes to liquor privatization, 49 percent of respondents are in favor. But the issue doesn't rank high on their list of priorities.
Less than half of voters surveyed, 39 percent, think the commonwealth is on the right track. However, the figure is still the highest percentage since 2010.
"I think the real remaining questions for Governor Wolf are simple," Madonna says. "How effective of a leader is he? Can he deliver on his agenda? Can he deal with a Republican-controlled legislature?"
File Photo: Taser International offers its model X26 stun gun, an optional video camera mounted in the butt of the grip as shown
(Harrisburg) -- Footage from stun gun cameras is increasingly finding its way into civil and criminal cases, and midstate prosecutors say it was the strongest evidence used to charge an officer this week in a man's shooting death.
Dauphin County District Attorney Ed Marsico says Hummelstown police Officer Lisa Mearkle's stun gun captured images showing she shot 59-year-old David Kassick, who was unarmed, in the back as he lay facedown after a traffic stop.
Taser International says it's already sold about 80,000 stun guns with cameras, about 10 percent of all stun guns it's manufactured.
The cameras can add about $500 to the $1,200 cost of Taser's basic model.
Mearkle's lawyer says she kept her stun gun pointed at the man to document what was happening, not thinking it would be used against her.
(Harrisburg) -- Authorities are investigating a racist letter delivered to the home of Gov. Tom Wolf's nominee for state police commissioner.
State police say the handwritten, unsigned letter saying ``No (racial epithet) lover will wear my uniform'' arrived in Colonel Marcus Brown's Cumberland County mailbox Monday night.
Brown advocates police diversity and said after the shooting of an unarmed teen in Missouri that most civil disobedience is sparked by law enforcement tactics.
It's the latest development in the fight over Brown's nomination.
Retired troopers have criticized the ex-Maryland state police superintendent for wearing a Pennsylvania state police uniform despite not attending the State Police Academy in Hershey.
A state troopers union and top Republican senators have asked Wolf to withdraw Brown's nomination after he was caught last week removing roadside signs critical of him.]]>
File Photo
(Harrisburg) -- A midstate lawmaker is calling for the establishment of Veterans Treatment Courts in all 67 counties.
Democratic Senator Rob Teplitz of Dauphin County has proposed requiring counties to implement the alternative courts, which provide assistance and support for military veterans who commit non-violent offenses.
He calls it an intervention model as opposed to an incarceration model of justice.
"The point is to have specialized personnel from the judge on down, dealing with issues that underly the veteran's commission of a crime," he says. "Instead of dealing with the theft for instance, you're dealing with what it was in that veteran's background and experience that led to that theft."
Currently, 18 counties, including Berks, Dauphin, Lancaster, Northumberland and York have veterans courts.
Teplitz says along with providing an alternative to prison, these courts seek to provide veterans with the help they need.
"You can get people away from being jailed for a crime but address the underlying cause and get them back on track in their life," he says. "Because their underlying problems --whether its drugs or mental health issues homelessness or other issues are not being dealth with."
York County has been able to document savings in the tens of millions of dollars in the judicial system as a result of its effort and Teplitz is hopeful that could be duplicated statewide.
Pennsylvania has the nation's fifth largest population of veterans.
*This story has been corrected from an earlier version that referred to Senator Teplitz as Representative Teplitz*]]>
(Harrisburg) -- The lawyer for a police officer in Dauphin County charged with homicide in the shooting death of an unarmed motorist says she acted in self-defense.
Attorney Brian Perry says the charges against his client, Hummelstown police officer Lisa Mearkle, are an injustice.
He says Mearkle 'felt like she had to do what she did'' when she shot 59-year-old David Kassick twice in the back as he was lying facedown in South Hanover Township.
Mearkle told state police investigators she fired because he wouldn't show his hands and she thought he was reaching into his jacket for a gun.
Dauphin County District Attorney Ed Marsico says Kassic was unarmed and did not brandish any object that could have been viewed as a weapon.
Police say Kassick sped away after Mearkle tried to pull him over for an expired inspection sticker in February.
Court records say Mearkle disabled Kassick with a stun gun before shooting him.
When Mearkle deployed her Taser, the device began recording audio and video of the incident, which state police say assisted their investigation.
Mearkle is a 15-year veteran of the force.]]>

The Los Angeles Clippers situation just became a bit murkier and the NBA All-Star game just got a little less dunk-ier.
Bryce Harper's offseason took a pretty cool turn on Thursday, as the former N.L. Rookie of the Year attended a Los Angeles Clippers game at the Staples Center.
Almost a month ago John Wall's eyes lit up when he learned that he was leading Eastern Conference guards in the All-Star vote among fans to be a starter for the first time.
It's hard catching John Wall on the basketball court.

HEBRON ESTATES -- They've gotten a taste of the pie. Now, veteran skipper Brian Wise is hoping that his North Bullitt Eagles will be driven enough to want another taste.
After its stunning run to the state baseball finals last June, Wise said there is no thing for sure this season.
"We won't be able to sneak up on anyone anymore," said Wise. "We'll have a target on our back."
But, that is a burden Wise and his Eagles will gladly take on.
SHEPHERDSVILLE – Just two months ago, Mike Gossett was the one doing the hiring of a new football coach at Bullitt Central.
Now, Gossett has been hired as a football coach.
On Monday, Gossett announced that he would be stepping down as Bullitt Central's athletic director at the end of the school year in June. The new landing spot will be at Southern High School where Gossett will become the head football coach.
Gossett made it clear that he did not drop the Bullitt Central job to take the position at Southern.
With a lot of sponsors and a lot of support, the Bullitt County Chamber of Commerce pulled off yet another successful KidsFest.
While we admit we had some concern over the $1 per person admission charge, there weren't any screaming or hollering.
The Shepherdsville Police Department softened the blow by providing funding to pay for the admission of the first 500 through the gates.
It is these community events that need to be stressed as a way to show that Bullitt Countians can come together at times.
BOWLING GREEN, – A Warren County, Kentucky woman was sentenced to 72 months in prison followed by 3 years of supervised release by Chief District Judge Joseph H. McKinley, Jr., for maliciously damaging and destroying and attempting to damage and destroy, by means of fire, the Dollar General Store, and the personal property, located in Hart County, Kentucky, announced Acting U.S. Attorney John E. Kuhn, Jr.
LOUISVILLE, Ky. – A career criminal from Georgia was sentenced today to 30 years in prison, followed by five years of supervised release, by Senior District Judge Thomas B. Russell, for multiple robberies, including brandishing a firearm announced Acting United States Attorney John E. Kuhn, Jr. There is no parole in the federal system.

BBB is warning basketball fans not to fall for NCAA ticket scams as they follow their favorite basketball teams. If you are making a last-minute decision to see your favorite team in the tournament, avoid disappointment, and don't fall for "too-good-to-be-true" ticket prices on the Internet or elsewhere.
SHEPHERDSVILLE--"Spring into Education" this March with the Bullitt County Woman's Club 44thAnnual Irene Carroll Style Show and Scholarship Luncheon. It will be held at Paroquet Springs Conference Centre Saturday, March 21, at 11:30 a.m.
The annual event raises money for scholarships for local high schools, said Lou Ann Moore, chair of the publicity committee and style show. Last year, they raised $10,000 and awarded three scholarships.
Moore said this year they will be awarding three $1,500 scholarships.
Little Miss Dress Up in Hillview hosted a special fashion show at Paroquet Springs Conference Centre.
The free show featured the latest prom and pageant fashions as modeled by local young adults. There were also vendors there to sell merchandise.

As we wrote about recently, I have a love/hate relationship with Facebook. I'm glad I restarted my account, as it is much easier to manage. I have noticed, though, a massive drop-off in the amount of traffic to our blog since the restart, but that's okay.
Facebook is a great tool, but far too many people (mis)use it in ways that are harming their homes. It has been reported recently that fully 33% of all divorces mention Facebook somewhere in the divorce filings.
Certainly, there are ways to enjoy the good uses of Facebook without it leading to divorce, but it can be very easy to be trapped in a digital, social, interactive world and much closer to cheating on your spouse than you ever dreamed you would be. If nothing else, it is easy to find yourself drawn to Facebook friends in a way that is drawing your attention away from your spouse, even if only subconsciously.
How can we enjoy Facebook without it leading to harm to our marriages? Here are 6 tips.
1. Never Hide Your Activity from Your Spouse. If you won't scroll through your timeline or even your private Facebook messages with your spouse nearby, you are doing something you shouldn't be. Your husband or wife should be able to look at your Facebook page at any point in time…no questions asked, and you should be willing to share.
2. Share Your Password. Why would you be embarrassed if your spouse logged in as you just for a moment, just to see what you have been up to? (By the way, this is important for parents, too.) Sharing passwords should be true of all accounts and devices, but especially when it is connected with something as "social" as Facebook.
3. Unfriend Anyone Your Spouse Isn't Comfortable With. If you have an "old flame" as a friend in Facebook, that's not necessarily wrong. But if your spouse is not comfortable with that person, you should unfriend that person…immediately. Doing so shows that the emotions and desires of your spouse are worth more to you than peering into the life of someone else.
4. Don't "Like" Tempting Things. How many men "like" the pages of celebrities not because their work is good, but because they like seeing pictures of her? How many women "like" nice looking movie stars, even though they know that their husband will never look like that? By clicking that "like" button, you are adding things that will pull your eyes, heart, and mind away from your spouse on a regular basis.
5. Praise Your Spouse on Facebook. Leah isn't on Facebook, and if she ever does sign up, you will probably see pigs with wings flying overhead. That said, I try to post things about her from time to time that build her up. This is a public forum where we can build up our marriage and the one to whom we are married. Far too many, though, run down their spouse. Praise him. Praise her. And do so often.
6. Turn Off Facebook. It's a great tool, but there is also an addictive nature to it. Set parameters for how much time you will spend scrolling through your news feed or checking messages. When that time is done, turn it off and actually spend face-to-face time with your spouse. Or, if you check Facebook on your lunch break, take the time to call or text your spouse or plan something for a date.
No one starts out on Facebook thinking, "I'm going to see if I can ruin my marriage with this website." Sadly, though, by not using Facebook in a responsible way, it is easy to chip away at the foundation of your marriage. Before you know it, "Facebook" may be used in some papers at the courthouse that you never thought you'd have to sign.
Treat your spouse and your marriage with honor in every space…even cyberspace.
QUESTION: What are some ways you protect your marriage on Facebook? Share your thoughts in the comments!
