The swim beach at Lake Powhatan, the popular swimming and fishing area in the Bent Creek Experimental Forest south of Asheville, was still closed today and most likely will remain so through the week, according to the recreation area's director.
The lake was closed Saturday due to a higher-than-normal bacteria count, said Judy Doyle, director of campground for Cradle of Forestry in American Interpretive Association, which manages the lake and campground.

Hey, I'm currently a senior in HS, and I am wondering what colleges around the country are the best in pre-law majors and are the best at preparing you for law school...please help
I don't understand what you guys are saying...I know that there is no pre-law major...but, its more of a focus...one would undertake a major and take classes to prepare for law school...that's what I meant by pre-law(I am currently looking at Miami of Ohio, Dayton, Loyola, and DePaul)
yeah, don't take "classes to prepare for law school." take a traditional major like english, history, economics, political science, physics, whatever floats your boat.

Bulgaria, please do the right thing - don't kill the strays of Sofia!
Following an incident in which a man had been attacked by stray dogs, the capital-city of Sofia will take new measures to deal with the strays of the city.
During the press conference held April 5, 2012, the Minister of Agriculture, Miroslav Naydenov, together with the Mayor of Sofia, Yordanka Fandakova, have announced their future anti-stray-policy.
While this new legislation will be the subject of further debates during their National Assembly to be held April 8, 2012, their decision to let a veterinarian judge and decide if the captured animal should be deemed aggressive or not - and consequently also be euthanized or not - without the presence of a local NGO, must be protested immediately at the strongest.
For more information, please visit:
the President of Bulgaria
the Prime Minister of Bulgaria
the Minister of Agriculture and Food
the Mayor of Sofia, Ms J Fandakova
EU-Commissioner John Dalli
the Bulgarian Members of the European Parliament
Mr President,
Dear Government Officials of Bulgaria,
Dear EU-Commissioner,
Dear Members of the European Parliament,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
we are writing to you concerning your press conference from April 5, 2012 regarding your new anti-stray-strategy to adopt for the capital-city, Sofia.
In fact, your action is due since too long. You are the ones to blame in case of incidents with strays in which citizens come to damage, and not the abandoned/homeless dogs who find themselves on your streets with no fault of their own.
Before we go any further, we would like to inform you already now, that your plan to let a veterinarian judge and decide if the captured animal should be deemed aggressive or not - and consequently also be euthanized or not - without the presence of a local NGO, is not acceptable and cannot stay like that!
Concerning your National Assembly scheduled for Sunday, April 8, 2012 during which further details of your new anti-stray-legislation shall be decided, we would like to remind you the following letter, addressed to you on January 10, 2007 by the ' European Intergroup on the Welfare and Conservation of Animals', that reads:
Brussels 10 January 2007
Ref: PC/ae/001/2007
Dear President,
I am writting to you on behalf of the European Intergroup on the Welfare and Conservation of Animals to forward you our warmest congratulations for Bulgaria's entry into the European Union.
During the last ten years we regularly received messages of Bulgarian citizens and NGOs, who informed us about the serious welfare problems of stray animals in your country and particularly in Sofia. The Intergroup wrote to the Bulgarian authorities urging them to take action. At the time they replied that there was a thorough willingness to solve this problem. Reality has shown however, that the problems still persist and even have worsened in some cases.
Your country has ratified the European Council's Convention for the Protection of Pet Animals wich makes it a binding obligation to take measures in this field. The Bulgarian Parliament has therefore initiated a procedure to introduce specific legislation that guarantees the protection and welfare of pet animals. Mrs Vania Tsvetkova MP and a group of other Parliament representatives have presented a draft proposal and we have been informed that also the Minister of Agriculture is making efforts in this direction.
Apparently, the current draft proposals for legislation present striking shortcomings. "No-Kill Solutions", i. e. preventive measures for curbing and stabilize the stray pet populations without recurring to culling are not sufficiently taken into account. These would include:
- Education programmes for pet owners to discourage amateur breeding and trade
- Low-cost sterilization campaigns of pet animals
- Ownership registration of pets with microchips
- Registration documents that are publicly available
- Licensing to control over-breeding and trade
- Control of activities related to the collection and traffic with stray animals.
We sincerely hope that the Bulgarian institutions engaged in the legislative process will vote and enact effective measures to solve the problem of stray animals without recurring to a simple "catch and kill policy", which has proven to be completely ineffective and which is moreover unacceptable on ethical grounds.
The Members of the Intergroup hope that you can influence the legislative proces by proposing the above mentioned points to be included in the new legislation.
We are looking forward to your answer.
Paulo Casaca
Since then, and in addition to what is stated in the above mentioned letter, the Treaty of Lisbon was signed on date of December 13, 2007 and the European Parliament Written Declaration 0026/2011 was adopted October 13, 2011. These important documents were initiated to further consolidate a concrete and lasting protocol for the humane treatment of animals including their population control by Union Member States. Bulgaria, being a member of the European Union is legally bound by their statutes.
That said, we call on you to abide by the above mentioned EU statutes calling for spay and neuter as a humane means of controlling over-population, to pay full regard to Article 13 of the Lisbon Treaty in your future actions, and we urge you to immediately review your decision concerning the determination if a dog is aggressive or not and to include your local NGOs in the decision making process.
Respectfully yours,

Arthur St New Jerusalem, Clayton-le-Moors
New Jerusalem church,
Arthur St,
CemeteriesThe church does not have a graveyard.
Church HistoryThe principal founder of the New Jerusalem Church in Clayton Le Moors was Dr W.H.Pilkington the son of Thomas Pilkington. Dr Pilkington came to Clayton Le Moors as a surgeon in around 1845 The first meetings were held in a cottage in Albert Street. The congregation grew rapidly and the cottage soon became too small, land was leased from Mr James Lomax and on June 6th 1868 the foundation stone was laid. The building was formally opened on November 8th 1868 by the reverend J Bayley. The Sunday school had by that time grown to accommodate one hundred pupils and fourteen teachers. Up to 1872 the services were conducted by missionary preachers in 1875 the Reverend I Tansley was ordained as the resident preacher and remained there until 1878. After a brief period the Reverend T K Payton became the minister and remained until he retired in 1888. In 1891 Mr W T Large became the leader of the society and he was ordained on July 30th 1893 and left during 1893 to become the minister of the Preston society. From then until at least 1901 the services were carried out by visiting preachers.

Most people know that the holidays that we celebrate as religious are steeped in ancient Celtic/Pagan roots. The same goes for Halloween which was originally known as the Samhain festival. Samhain is pronounced (sah-ween) and was a festival to celebrate the Celtic new year which begins on November 1st. It is a festival to celebrate the beginning of winter and for livestock to be brought in from the fields. The day before November 1st was thought to be when the land of the dead and the land of the living overlapped and the dead walked the earth causing sickness and crop destruction. So rather than get into the history too much I am going to write about how the day we celebrate as Halloween and its traditions have come about from the festival of Samhain.
Trick or Treat
This tradition, as you know, is when children come to your house dressed in costumes, ring your doorbell and say Trick or Treat in the hopes o getting some candy or other treat. If the homeowner does not give a treat, then a trick is played on him or his property. This comes from the part of the Samhain festival where masks and costumes were worn to appease the evil spirits and treats such as cakes and fruits were left outside to feed the evil forces and I nothing was left out, the evil forces invaded the homes or destroyed the farmer's crops.
During the Celtic festival, bonfires were lit in an attempt to keep the dead and the spirits away from the living and away from the crops and in turn, these fires drew insects such as mosquitoes and moths. These insects in turn drew bats to the bonfire which ate the insects.
Jack O'Lantern
There are many variations of this story and one of my favorites is that a ne'er-do-well named Jack had stolen things from the villagers. The villagers had chased Jack until he came face to face with the devil. The devil told him it was time for him to die and the devil would take his soul to hell. However Jack had tricked the devil by telling him that he could bedevil the souls of the Christian villagers that were chasing him. Jack told the devil to transform into a coin that he would use to pay the villagers for the stolen items. Believing that this was a good idea, the devil transformed into a coin and hopped into Jack's wallet. However, Jack also had a cross in his wallet and the devil was trapped in there by the cross as it took away his powers. Jack promised to free the devil only if he agreed never to take Jack's soul. The devil promised and Jack freed him.
Eventually, Jack died and although the devil could not take his soul to hell, Jack was too evil to go to Heaven. With nowhere for his soul to go, he was doomed to wander the earth forever and asked how he would be able to see to go anywhere. Mockingly, the devil tossed him a burning ember from the flames of hell, that would never burn out so Jack carved out a turnip and placed the ember inside and used it as a lantern. He would soon become to be known as Jack of the Lantern or Jack-o'-Lantern.
So there you have it. These are just some of the reasons why certain things and traditions have become associated with Halloween.

2015 MDEA Jurors
Judging of each year's MDEA competition is conducted by an impartial, multidisciplinary panel of expert jurors—comprised of a balance of clinicians, engineers, and designers—who carefully review all of the submissions and narrow them down to a select group of exceptional products in each of the 11 medtech categories. The jury panel typically encompasses medtech professionals from a wide range of healthcare and design related fields, including clinical practice, biomedical engineering, human factors, industrial design, manufacturing, and other areas.
Members of the MDEA jury are selected each year by a panel of editors from UBM Canon. Such independence and impartiality is a leading reason for the industry wide acceptance and success that the MDEA program has enjoyed. MDEA jurors—past and present—have set a high standard for judging excellence and fair competition.

FRANKFORT, Ky. (WKYT) - One man is battling critical injuries and another is in jail after a crash. It happened around 3:30 p.m. Monday on Hickory Ridge Road in Frankfort.
The Franklin County Sheriff says Joshua Graves, 30, topped a hill and hit a car driven by Barbara Johnson, 73. They say the crash sent Graves' car flying into some mailboxes. We're told he hit Evan Prewitt, 26, who was standing near one of them.
Prewitt was taken to Frankfort Regional Medical Center and is listed in critical condition. A family member took Johnson to the hospital to be checked out as well.
Deputies arrested Graves and charged him with DUI, two counts of wanton endangerment, failure of owner to maintain required insurance, failure to produce insurance card, failure to notify department of transportation of address change and possession of an open alcohol container in a motor vehicle.
Graves is in the Franklin County Jail on a $20,811 bond.

Crossing the Rubicon: 9/11 and the Decline of the American Empire at the End of the Age of Oilby Michael Ruppert
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
The attacks of September 11, 2001, were accomplished through an amazing orchestration of logistics and personnel. Crossing the Rubicon discovers and identifies key suspectsandmdash;finding some of them in the highest echelons of American governmentandmdash;by showing how they acted in concert to guarantee that the attacks produced the desired result.
Crossing the Rubicon is unique not only for its case-breaking examination of 9/11, but for the breadth and depth of its world pictureandmdash;an interdisciplinary analysis of petroleum, geopolitics, narcotraffic, intelligence and militarismandmdash;without which 9/11 cannot be understood.
The US manufacturing sector has been mostly replaced by speculation on financial data whose underlying economic reality is a dark secret. Hundreds of billions of dollars in laundered drug money flow through Wall Street each year from opium and coca fields maintained by CIA-sponsored warlords and US-backed covert paramilitary violence. Americaandrsquo;s global dominance depends on a continually turning mill of guns, drugs, oil and money. Oil and natural gasandmdash;the fuels that make economic growth possibleandmdash;are subsidized by American military force and foreign lending.
In reality, 9/11 and the resulting andldquo;war on terrorandrdquo; are parts of a massive authoritarian response to an emerging economic crisis of unprecedented scale. Peak Oilandmdash;the beginning of the end for our industrial civilizationandmdash;is driving the and#233;lites of American power to implement unthinkably draconian measures of repression, warfare and population control. Crossing the Rubicon is more than a story. It is a map of the perilous terrain through which, together and alone, we are all now making our way.
Michael C. Ruppert is the publisher and editor of From the Wilderness, a newsletter read by more than 16,000 subscribers in 40 countries. A former Los Angeles Police Department narcotics investigator, he is widely known for his groundbreaking stories on US involvement in the drug trade, Peak Oil and 9/11.
Book News Annotation:
Ruppert (publisher and editor of the newsletter From the Wilderness) charges that the September 11th attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon were carried out with the complicity and connivance of officials operating at the highest levels of the US government. He lays out his argument as if it were the prosecutor's case in a criminal trial, in turn addressing motive (geopolitics and the coming problem of "peak oil"); means (including control of the intelligence and aviation bureaucracies and penetration of Al Qaeda); and opportunity (use of wargames to scramble NORAD response times, for example). He concludes with speculation on how the events of 9-11 fit in with larger trends of geopolitics and empire. Much of the material is reprinted from his website, along with additional commentary. Distributed in the US by Consortium Books Sales and Distribution.

Twenty Twelve - videos break outside content in responsive layout
|Reported by:

|Bundled Theme
We need to account for video responsiveness within the new Twenty Twelve theme. I would recommend adding fitvids.js to the theme to be able to accurately calculate videos with different sizes. A pure CSS solution would involve setting a fixed aspect ratio, which could cause undesirable results for videos that have a non-widescreen aspect ratio.

I think we can get 90% there with CSS, I'll work with Drew and Konstantin to add a patch for testing and feedback. It'd be really nice to avoid loading any extra JS.

Could you tell me how to repeat it? What content to use (video URL and how you entered it into the post) and your browser version and OS.
Screenshots help, too.

The video I had an issue with was a Vimeo video, not embedded with oEmbed. This was embedded as an iframe video:
<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/40912440?title=0&byline=0&portrait=0" frameborder="0" width="620" height="350"></iframe>
This is on the latest version of Chrome on Mac OS X.
Fitvids.js (or a similar PHP solution) is perfect for this problem because it looks for iframes with vimeo.com in the src attribute. CSS can achieve a similar effect, but it's impossible to scale the height based on the width.

Data Layout Optimization for Petascale File Systems
Download Now
Date Added: Nov 2009
Format: PDF
High-Performance Computing (HPC) has crossed the Petaflop mark and is moving forward to reach the Exaflop range. However, while computing resources are making rapid progress, there is a significant gap between processing capacity and data-access performance. In this paper, the authors propose a simple performance model to promote a better integration between the parallel I/O middleware layer and parallel file systems. They show that application-specific data layout optimization can improve overall data access delay considerably for many applications. Implementation results under MPI-IO middleware and PVFS2 file system confirm the correctness and effectiveness of their approach, and demonstrate the potential of data layout optimization in petascale data storage.

Forest fire smoke chokes region
EUGENE, Ore. - Smoke from a wildfire in Central Oregon crept back into the Willamette Valley on Monday, slowly but surely driving air quality numbers to their unhealthiest level since the fire started.
Air quality monitors in downtown Springfield, south Eugene and Cottage Grove were recording air quality in the good range on Monday morning, but smoke from the fire was visible in the air and at higher elevations.
The smoke settled as the morning went on, with the air quality pushing into the moderate range by 10 a.m.
By 11 a.m., monitors were recording the worst air quality in a month.
And by the noon hour, air quality had hit the unhealthy range. People with breathing problems should avoid the smokey air.
"After a strong onshore flow kept the area clear of smoke over the weekend, winds shifted overnight, pushing smoke over to the west side of the Cascades," said Sally Markos, spokesperson for the Lane Regional Air Protection Agency (LRAPA).

The Pole Creek fire near Sisters has burned across 16,500 acres.
Some of the smoke comes from the wildfire's active burning; other smoke comes from "burnout" activities by firefighters, where crews use fire to intentionally burn fuels and create a containtment barrier around the wildfire.
The National Weather Service is forecasting southwest winds for Tuesday, which should clear the smoke out of the valley.
Central Oregon and Washington - where a massive complex of fires is burning - face inversions trapping smoke in valleys like a lid on a pot.
Northwest residents sensitive to smoke pollution should take precautions if local air quality deteriorates.

Believe it or not, I LOVE to throw get togethers at my home. Before I moved to Florida my husband and I were known for the bar-b-que's and crab boils (that is whole 'nother post for a different day) that we use to throw. Every weekend we would have something going on at our house. Not to mention that I am the theme queen for all things holidays. I will throw a party for just my children for no reason at all and put my all into it just as if I was throwing a party for a group of people. But I digress.
One thing that is important to me is making sure women, as mother's, don't forget to kick back, relax, and enjoy being a woman and not just a mom.
I like to get together with a small group of women every blue moon to enjoy good food and even better cocktails. When I was presented with the opportunity by T.G.I. Friday's and Essence Magazine to throw a party for a few friends while trying out the new T.G.I. Friday's cocktail drinks, I jumped at the chance. Being a "penny pinching diva" I of course have to put a money saving spin on almost everything. Originally I was just going to make this a one post article.
But I have decided that so many other women need to learn how to plan their Own Girls Night In party on a budget that I will be sharing a new tip everyday this week to help you plan your own party on a budget.
It doesn't take much to throw a small party. It really doesn't. And with the help of T.G.I. Friday's cocktail drinks you can take their motto of "We Mix It. You Kick It." and really have fun with it. And what's a party without a theme? Not fun at all. The theme of my Girls Night In party was to do it in our pajamas.
Who wants to get dressed up to spend the night with their girls? Why not kick back and relax in the comfort of your home? I'm going to tell you how you can take $200 and turn your Girl's Night In party into a night that you won't soon forget. Complete with yummy cocktails, delicious food, and nice swag bags for your guests to take home.

In collaboration with researchers from Harvard University, NASA and Lancaster University, the UH team co-authored the paper "Large Scale Thermal Events in the Solar Nebula: Evidence from Fe, Ni Metal Grains in Primitive Meteorites," which appeared in Science May 5.
By analyzing iron and nickel metal grains from the ancient meteorite, which was recovered on the Antarctic ice-sheet by a U.S. meteorite search expedition in 1991, the UH team will help scientists gain a better understanding of the solar system's beginnings. Keil says it is extremely rare to find such primitive materials intact.
"They're (the primitive meteorites) the most pristine, the most unadulterated materials in the solar system," he says.
Scientists have constructed a general view of how the sun formed, but they remain unsure of the details of how planets formed in the solar nebula, the gas disk in which the system's first solids accreted into larger bodies.
Meibom says there are very few traces of material that can be dated back to the earliest times in our solar system's history, and these traces can only be found in meteorites.
"Meteorites are fragments of small bodies, called asteroids, which formed in the solar system at the same time the major planets formed," Meibom says.
"As part of an asteroid, some meteorites have preserved their minerals and chemical composition relatively unchanged since their formation. The study of meteorites therefore provides a unique opportunity to look back 4.56 million years and study the physical and chemical conditions prevailing in the solar nebula."
By studying the metals in the meteorite, researchers concluded that they were formed within the solar nebula by a process known as gas-solid condensation, where atoms clump together into solid metal particles.
The team was able to constrain how fast the grains grew, the composition, temperature and pressure of the solar nebula gas and how fast the region of the nebula in which they formed cooled by radiating its heat away to interstellar space.
The team concluded that the metal grains must have condensed from the nebula gas in a matter of weeks while the nebula gas was cooling as a rate of 1 degree Fahrenheit per hour.
"This is a phenomenally fast cooling rate for a system as large as the solar nebula," Meibom says. "It means that the gas in the disk must have been moving very fast and must have been transporting the growing iron and nickel metal grains millions of miles, from the hot interior to the colder surface regions of the disk on a time scale comparable to the time it took to grow them, that is, in a matter of weeks.
"So the picture that these metal grains are drawing of the earliest time in the solar nebula is that of a highly dynamic, turbulent and rapidly evolving disk."
Keil says the research not only gives scientists a better idea of how the solar system formed, it indicates a partnership in two different fields of science.
"The great significance of this paper is the crossover from cosmochemistry, the study of extraterrestrial materials, into astrophysical theories," Keil says. "With the actual data our (UH) researchers collected, astrophysicists will be able to create direct theoretical models of how the solar system formed."
UH Manoa Hawai'i Institute of Geophysics and Planetology director Klaus Keil recently received a $343,000 grant from NASA for his study "Origin of Meteorite Parent Bodies and the Moon."
Martian Meteorites Reveal Clues To Atmospheric Processes
by Kim McDonald
San Diego - March 1, 2000 - Detailed measurements of sulfur isotopes in five Martian meteorites have enabled researchers at the University of California, San Diego to determine that the abundant sulfur on the surface of Mars is due largely to chemical reactions in the Red Planet's atmosphere that are similar to those that occur in Earth's atmosphere.

DIVERSE Magazine
MADISON, Wis. -- Wisconsin senior Ryan Evans has been named the 2013 Arthur Ashe Jr. Male Sports Scholar of the Year by Diverse: Issues In Higher Education. Inspired by tennis legend Arthur Ashe Jr.'s commitment to education as well as athletics, the Sports Scholars Awards honors students of color who have made academic and athletic achievement a winning combination.Out of a pool of several hundred nominees, Evans and West Virginia women's basketball player Jessica Nicole Harlee won the national award for best exemplifying the standards of scholarship, athleticism and humanitarianism."I'm honored to receive this award," Evans said. "I have some great role models and have been able to learn from the mindsets of successful people. That's why I want to pass that on. I want to share the story of how your dreams can become reality if you really believe and you're willing to work hard and diligently. I'm blessed to be in the position I'm in.""Ryan's contributions cannot be overlooked," says assistant coach Lamont Paris. "He's been instrumental to a lot of success. Without him, we wouldn't have accomplished what we did.""Ryan is exceptional, very engaging, and he's committed to making the community a better place," an UW assistant professor Peter Miller told Diverse. "He's a great role model for what every student-athlete should be."As a nominee, student-athletes must maintain a cumulative grade point average of at least 3.2, and be active on their campuses or in their communities. Evans, a 4.0 GPA graduate student in educational leadership and policy analysis, led the Badgers averaging 7.3 rebounds per game while finishing third on the team with 10.1 points per game.Evans is the second Wisconsin student athlete to receive this award, following women's soccer player Shannon Brown, who earned the accolade in 1999. Former Badgers football standout Russell Wilson also won the award in 2011 as a student at NC State.

Townsend Vineyard is planted high on the ridge of the upper Rector Canyon watershed. The soil is made up of Pliocene volcanic, mainly of andesite and basalt rocks. Townsend Vineyard's architecture is derived from the Antinori vineyard philosophy in Tuscany. All planting decisions were based on row direction (east to west) to attain the best sun exposure; high density vine spacing (2,233 vines per acre) to achieve low fruit yield per vine; and selection of rootstocks and clones best suited to the land and climate to ensure ideal fruit expression.
Temperatures throughout the winter months were mild with below normal rainfall, marking a third consecutive year of drought conditions for Napa Valley. A dry spring with slightly higher temperatures than normal provided excellent weather conditions for flowering and uniform fruit set. Dry conditions prevailed throughout the summer and early fall. Warm daytime temperatures along with cool night time temperatures into the autumn months assured healthy and completely ripe Cabernet Sauvignon grapes rich in winemaking potential.
Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were harvested from the two vineyard blocks that make up the Townsend Vineyard. The grapes were picked on September 26 and on October 5 with an average yield of 3.6 pounds of fruit per vine. Due to the favorable climatic conditions during harvest, the grapes from the Townsend Vineyard were picked at ideal ripeness. In addition, great care was taken to select clusters of uniform maturity. Grapes were hand-harvested in the cool morning hours. During fermentation, preserving varietal aroma and creating a well textured wine was of utmost importance. The abundant, aromatically rich and fIne-textured tannins were easy to extract. After primary fermentation, the young wine was put in French oak barrels where malolactic fermentation took place by year's end. The wine aged an additional 15 months. During this time, individual barrels were tended and tasted to guarantee The elegance and character of the tannins.
The wine was blended and bottled on the estate, then aged for one more year before release. Renzo Cotarella (Antinori Chief Enologist) and Nate Weis (Antica Winemaker) oversaw the production of this wine.

How it fits into the collection. The Ferens has tried to collect work by contemporary British artists such as Patrick Hughes who created this work. It also contributes to the collection of work by British artists who are interested in surrealism. These are often very bizarre or dreamlike images.

S.C. Senate panel passes open-carry gun bill
COLUMBIA — South Carolina gun owners would be allowed to openly carry their weapons in public without a permit under a bill that a legislative panel approved Wednesday.
A state Senate subcommittee passed the measure despite objections from law enforcement groups, the South Carolina Association of Counties and the Municipal Association of South Carolina.
Jarrod Bruder, executive director of the South Carolina Law Enforcement Officers' Association, told the subcommittee members that gun owners need "education, training and to go through the proper background checks."
Under existing state law, gun owners must complete at least eight hours of training and undergo a background check to obtain a concealed-weapons permit. The bill that the subcommittee approved would eliminate these requirements.
Bruder said about 187,000 South Carolina residents currently have concealed weapons permits. "We don't see that there is anything broken in that program," he contended.
Allowing residents to openly carry guns could cause difficulties for law enforcement officers responding to shootings, Bruder said.
"It muddies the water, plain and simple," he said. "We are going to look at anyone who has a gun and how do we know who the person is who is the good guy and the person who is the bad guy?"
Echoing Bruder's comments, South Carolina Sheriff's Association executive director Jeff Moore voiced "very grave concerns" about the bill.
Subcommittee Chairman Sen. Lee Bright, the bill's main sponsor, responded to criticism of the measure.
"Government has killed way more people than guns have," said Bright, a Republican from Roebuck.
His subcommittee held five public hearings on the bill before Wednesday's vote, including one in Greenville last week that hundreds of people attended. Most of the speakers at those hearings expressed support for the measure.
"People are now here begging for their God-given, constitutionally backed rights," said subcommittee member Sen. Shane Martin, a Republican from Spartanburg.
The subcommittee adopted a series of amendments before approving the bill.
Under these amendments, any person convicted of felony would be prohibited from possessing a handgun in South Carolina and employers would be permitted to keep guns out of the workplace.
The bill would allow business owners to post signs telling customers not to bring firearms inside. An amendment added Wednesday would prevent people from taking guns into courthouses, jails, police stations, government offices and churches. The same amendment also would not allow guns in election polling places, in day-care centers, in schools and at school or collegiate athletic events.
The Senate Judiciary Committee is expected to consider the measure at a meeting next month.

Jordan Schools Hire Chef To Make Tasty Healthy Dishes
November 26, 2012 6:12 PM
CBS Minnesota (con't)
Affordable Care Act Updates: CBSMinnesota.com/ACA
Health News & Information: CBSMinnesota.com/Health
JORDAN, Minn. (WCCO) — New federal guidelines are changing school lunch menus to reduce calories and include more vegetables. But a lot of kids don't like it. Some even boycotted school lunches. So, administrators in the Jordan school district got the message. They hired a chef to create healthy dishes kids will like.
As WCCO's Rachel Slavik shows us, Monday was taste-testing day for one of the new items. Watch the report above!
