The Power of Independent Thinking
The Supreme Court and the Battle for Second Amendment Rights
Recorded: Thursday, July 22, 2010
In June 2008 the U.S. Supreme Court handed down a landmark ruling on the Second Amendment individual right to keep and bear arms with its Heller v. District of Columbia decision. Two years later, in June 2010, a second historic decision squeezed through the highest court in the land.

Recorded: Tuesday, February 12, 2008
The 1967 Outer Space Treaty designated space for peaceful purposes as the province of all mankind. Virtually all spacefaring nations now favor a new treaty to accommodate major changes in geopolitics and military technology. The United States, however, has blocked negotiations, citing potential threats to U.S. rights, capabilities, and freedom of action.

Talk to an Expert - 1-800-Micato-1
The velvet-green slopes of the Virunga Volcanoes are a lofty and lush paradise. In the rainforests here--buzzing with the sounds of jungle life--the soft mists prevail as they did when Dian Fossey wrote her legendary book Gorillas in the Mist. And the creature that drew Dr. Fossey is the same one which beckons to us: the rare and regal Mountain Gorilla.
Talk to someone who's paid a visit to the mountain gorillas of Rwanda's highlands and you are likely to hear near-rhapsodic praise for a rare, beautiful, and often very moving experience. Our carefully orchestrated visits begin in Kigali, revitalized Rwanda's charming capital, which we'll tour before heading northwest to the Virunga Volcanoes, a stately chain of jungle volcanoes that top out at Mount Karisimbi's 14,787 feet, higher than any Rocky or Sierra Nevada. We'll settle into the superb Sabyino Silverback Lodge, a fine base for our wanderings in these almost supernaturally verdant precincts.
The next day, led by our guide and his crew, we begin making our way through a forest of trailing vines, trilling bird calls, giant lobelia, and mossy hagenia trees—a Jurassic, emerald world—walking toward an encounter with one of the park's ten habituated (meaning they aren't frightened by us) families of mountain gorillas; no more than eight people are allowed to visit any given family for more than an hour each day. Seeing a 450-pound male saunter by only a few yards away is something you'll want to tell your grandchildren's children about.
We'll pay our respects to a different gorilla family today, noting the subtle cultural differences between clans. Later we'll explore the twin lakes of Burera and Ruhondo, blue beauties in a sea of green, and mingle with local folks at a bustling food market in Ruhengeri.
We'll make the drive to Kigali for our homeward flights. (One final note: travellers who'd like to visit more of our primate relatives should ask us about easy-to-arrange side trips that put us in contact with chimpanzees and colobus monkeys.)
Per person, double occupancy from $5,090
Gorilla Permits (non refundable) per person: $1,500

Simple, Solid Advice from 78-year-old: Keep Learning
Born Aug. 16, 1930, Kishen Kapur received his undergraduate and master's degrees from Bombay University in India in 1952 and 1954. He came to the United States in 1956 and earned a master's degree in mathematics at Kent State University. In July 1958, Kapur accepted a job with IBM, where he worked as a physicist and senior engineer for more than 30 years.
He married wife Marie in 1961, and together they raised four children: Rani, Kristna (a dentist in Ithaca who also graduated from Binghamton University), David (an attorney in Endicott) and Karin Walsh (a retired educator).
In the 1990s, following his retirement, the self-described "addict for electronics" decided to explore the field at Binghamton University. But getting a PhD was not the motivation to take classes.
"I wanted access to the library and to play with electronics," he said. "Those were my two desires. So I thought, 'They won't let me just go and play, so I'd better sign up for something.' … I liked the privilege of getting any number of books from the library. That was nice. And working in the lab, I had full freedom to work on projects."
And what was the family's reaction when Kapur announced he was going back to school? "They told me, 'You're nuts,' Kapur said. "'You're in retirement. Why do you need this?' I didn't have an answer, other than that I am addicted to this."
The "addiction" of electronic assembly and repair goes back to India, Kapur said.
"One of my professors went to MIT and came back with instruments for doing experiments in nuclear physics," Kapur said. "I told him that I could make (the instruments) for him. He didn't believe me! I gave him an offer: if it works, you keep it, you pay me. If it doesn't work, you throw it away and we're done.
"He placed an order; I delivered it. Since then, I've been making electronic equipment on the side - instrumentation for all kinds of custom electronic equipment."
At Binghamton, Kapur worked with his adviser, electrical and computer engineering Professor James Constable. He credits Constable with allowing him to work at his own pace and with appropriate "grandpa duty" interspersed between classes.
"It's nice that he hung in there and finished," Constable said. "It's the kind of thing you like to see as a faculty member."
Never having attended his other commencement ceremonies, Kapur's family urged him to make Binghamton University's Commencement his first – and it was. He attended, admitting it was nice to be honored, but reiterated that it was his love of learning and electronics that brought him to this point.
Despite modesty and a terrific sense of humor ("I just want it to be over with," he said with a laugh about the ceremony.), "I'm not going to go and get a job," he said. "If there's an electronics job I like, I'll do it for nothing!"

May 2, 2016
A registered sex offender is back behind bars, charged with not telling authorities about his new address, which deputies say, is too close to a school.
Deputies arrested 58-year-old Bobby Boone of Benjamin Road in Chocowinity this week, eight weeks after they were first tipped off that Boone was not living where he was registered to be staying.
As of Friday morning, the Beaufort County jail says Boone is still behind bars under a $5,000 bond.
Sex offenders are required to tell law enforcement where they live, and must not live within 1,000 feet of educational property; both laws that authorities say Boone broke.
His current address is close to Chocowinity Primary School.

It was all my fault
I am taking full responsibility for having put Maggie to sleep Had I made the decision to go with the Madison chemo protocol instead of the doxo, Maggie might still be with us I thought that I made the right decision at the time after it appeared that Maggie went into remission after a month on the doxo Even if I would have opted for a rescue protocol, things might have been different today I think that Bella was a gift from God, knowing that our remaining time with Maggie was very limited I hope that I never have to make a decision like the one that I made with Maggie, again
Everything you are feeling is a part of the stages of grieving. A lot of us have been there, done that. We question our decisions. think of the "what if". I know I have done it many times, sometimes I still do.
I am sure you did the best you could for your Maggie and she loved you for it!

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. Maggie is in a better place and she doesn't feel any pain anymore. I know Maggie put up a strong fight but you can't blame yourself for anything. It'll take time to let her go and move on (took me 5 months for my golden). I hope you stay in touch and find happiness with Maggie by looking back on the good times you guys had together. She'll always be next to you watching over you!
When being presented with a diagnosis as devastating as cancer, for your beloved Maggie (or any of our beloved goldens), it is VERY hard to determine what course to take. As others have said, it is definitely a heartbreaking stage of grieving that we go through. You loved your girl completely and made the very best decision that you could make for her. It would make Maggie sad to know that you're going thru this self-doubt. I'm so very sorry that you lost Maggie! I hope that in time you will be able to take comfort in the many beautiful memories that you share.

DAVIS: Former judge-exec should rescind comments
To the editor:
An Oldham County Circuit Court judge recently issued a decision regarding a civil lawsuit I filed against Judge-Executive Duane Murner.
Additionally, former Judge-Executive John Black took issue with the matter in The Oldham Era in January. Mr. Black's opinion reveals his view on how local government should operate, that being in a naive, stealth and non-transparent manner.

| Damian
(ダイスケ Daisuke)
|First Appearance:
|Charmander - The Stray Pokémon
|Voice actor:
|Maddie Blaustein
His only known Pokémon was Charmander. When he challenges Ash to a fight for calling him out, he only brings out a Poké Ball. It is unknown how many Pokémon he owns but it can be implied that it is a large number since he had a huge pile of Poké Balls on a table in the Pokemon Center where he bragged about them to a group of boys, assumed to be his friends.
|Damian owned a Chamander, but after he realized it was weaker than his standards, he left it on a rock and left it behind.
|Charmander ♂
|This article is a stub. Please help the Pokémon Wiki by expanding it.
- Damian's attitude and cruel nature in abandoning Charmander is similar to the way Shamus had treated Pignite when he was a Tepig just because he lost to a Deerling.
- In the manga version, Damian had a nicer personailty and had been in a coma from an accident he had while he was shopping for both him and Charmander. They were reunited at Hidden Village.

- "The Maesters call it "obsidian"."
- ―Samwell Tarly
Dragonglass is a common name in Westeros for the substance known as obsidian, a form of volcanic glass. They are notable for being thus far seen to be the only substance capable of killing White Walkers.
Large amounts of dragonglass can be found on Dragonstone island.[1]
Season 1
Doreah tells Viserys she's seen a man from Asshai with a dagger of real dragonglass.[2]
Season 2
Grenn, Dolorous Edd, and Samwell Tarly find a cache of dragonglass spear heads buried in the snow on the Fist of the First Men. Sam identifies the material, but is unsure why it would have been left on the Fist by a ranger of the Night's Watch. Edd suggests that whoever it was, they wanted someone else to find the weapons.[3]
Season 3
After escaping Craster's Keep with Gilly, Sam shows her a piece of the dragonglass he had found. She asks what it does, and Sam responds that he isn't sure it does anything. He does remark how beautiful it is however.[4] Sam later uses his dagger to slay a White Walker that was after Gilly's baby. When Sam stabs the White Walker in the shoulder, it turns to ice and shatters.[5]
In the books
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, dragonglass is found in quantity on Dragonstone and in the ruins of Valyria, where it was used to make different kinds of ornaments, including candles. It is also an export from Asshai. According to legend, the Children of the Forest also made use of the substance. It is also discovered that weapons made of dragonglass are the only thing that can harm or kill White Walkers, and according to legend, the Children of the Forest would provide the Night's Watch with weapons made of dragonglass specifically for that purpose.
Dragonglass is sharper than steel, but also more brittle. For this reason it does not make good swords because they might shatter, but smaller daggers are more sturdy and therefore more common. They are also very effective as arrowheads.
In the books, it was Jon Snow who found the buried bundle. In it there were a dozen knives, leaf-shaped spearheads, numerous arrowheads, and a broken warhorn.
Apart from its effectiveness against ice-bound evils and its use in magic, dragonglass is identical to real-world obsidian, down to it's volcanic origins, its overall functional limitations, and its use as a reliable cutting tool by peoples who had yet to develop metallurgy.

I am desperately trying to get this article featured. Other than a Behind the scenes section, what do I need to make this article featured?Aragog the Acromantula(Talk / Contributions) 20:09, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
- Well, articles nominated for Featured Article status should adhere to the following criteria:
- Articles should be of a reasonable length.
- Be comprehensive and in-depth.
- Be written as an in-universe article, omitting references to the book titles in the main text.
- Have quotes and images where available and appropriate.
- Follow the layout guide in terms of style.
- Be accurately and completely sourced and referenced.
If you think that this article can be made featured, go ahead and add it to the nominees list. Hoping I helped you. -- Seth Cooper Owl Post 20:13, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

Does anybody know where the name "Aragog" came from? It seems like she plucked it out of Sanskrit or something. I've noticed a lot of articles here have the etymology for the subject in question, and this article doesn't mention it at all.- Aragog the Acromantula(Talk / Contributions) 00:54, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
- I added a Etymology -- Hellabore
- I should have guessed the "ara" part, now it seems obvious...you must be good in Greek and Latin and all that.- Aragog the Acromantula(Talk / Contributions) 01:01, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
It seems highly innacurate to consider Aragog as Hagrids pet. It is true Hagrid cared for him during his childhood, but as an adult Aragog seems to be entirely independant, and it seems more likely that they should be considered close friends than anything else. Any thoughts on this? Weaxzezz 23:21, March 29, 2010 (UTC)
The quote by Hagrid at the top of this section is, I believe, inaccurate in it's description. Yes, the quote is correct, but I think it would be more contextually appropriate to assume that Hagrid is yelling at the people that are trying to curse the acromantulae away, not yelling at the acromantulae to stop hurting people. I don't have the book in front of me, but that was how I remember reading it at the time...thoughts? 220.127.116.11 21:27, February 27, 2012 (UTC)
Colony's survival
The article says: "It is unknown if the colony and its population survived following the conclusion of the battle, which was in favour of the Order of the Phoenix." My question is why it was in favour of OftP that acromantulas' colony would survive?—Kaimi (999,999 CP/5 TP) 23:05, June 23, 2012 (UTC)

Editor's note: This is the fifth story in CNN's series exploring the issues surrounding childhood obesity.
It's a sweet, sticky, crunchy, ooey-gooey, chocolate-drizzled, cheese-stuffed, deep-fried world out there, and we can't pretend it doesn't tastes pretty darned delicious. Nearly from birth, American kids are blasted with ads for foods that send their taste buds into overdrive, but don't do them any nutritional favors.
These treats might be okay in very careful moderation, but if it's hard enough for adults to resist the sugary, salty siren call, how can we expect kids to do so? A parent needs an arsenal. Grab your knives.
"There are so many practical and amazing reasons why you should teach your kids to cook," Workman says. "The most obvious is that if you don't, in short order they will find themselves with a takeout menu in their hands, or on line at a supermarket with a cart of frozen food or prepared meals, and ultimately we'll have retirement homes filled with heavy old people nibbling chicken nuggets and debating the merits of barbecue sauce versus honey mustard, both of which will give them heartburn."
It's never too early to start, Workman says, and it's not just about knocking out a momentary case of the munchies. "Like any skill, the older you get, the more difficult it is to learn. They will understand and appreciate food in a deeper way, they will be comfortable in the kitchen, they will develop broader palates, and they will be able to entertain people, which is an undervalued and ever-shrinking asset. You will be giving them a new place to discover things and be creative."
And the benefits keep adding up, Workman says. "They will learn math, multiplication and fractions. We talk about how this generation are tech natives, growing up with computer skills, so they are completely comfortable with the language of technology. It seems to make a lot of sense to invest a bit of energy into doing the same for them in the kitchen."
Tanya Wenman Steel, Editor-in-Chief of Epicurious.com, co-author of "Real Food for Healthy Kids" and mother of identical twin boys, also underscores the importance of early kitchen education.
Steel says, "The old adage of if you teach a man to fish, you have fed him for a lifetime particularly resonates with kids. Once they understand what healthy foods are, and how they can make simple things for themselves like snacks, salads, and desserts, then you have empowered them and put them on a path of healthier eating for the rest of their life. Just as we try and teach our kids the golden rules, so, too, should we teach them the golden rules of eating well."
While it might seem like a pain in your overworked neck to herd the whole family into the kitchen to prepare a meal, doing it just once a week will have immediate and lasting benefits - and you might even end up enjoying yourselves.
Here are five good reasons to get in the kitchen with your kids:
It's quality time.
Traditions can span generations.
It doesn't matter if it's a new homemade pasta every Friday, exploring a different international cuisine every Sunday, delving into Grandma's recipe box or setting up a make-your-own-pizza bar before you watch American Idol. What matters is that it's time spent together, centered around developing healthy habits. Your young ones might even share this comforting tradition with their own kids someday.
They'll see the whole picture.
And encourage them to get their hands dirty. If they've stirred the pot, peeled the carrots, mashed the sweet potatoes or washed the lettuce, they've still had a role in making the dish. It'll be hard to say no to their own handiwork, even if they have rejected that ingredient when it's appeared on their plate before.
Workman notes that it's critical for kids to see exactly what goes into their food. "They will see how much fat or salt or sugar goes into something, and understand why certain foods should be eaten with moderation, and to look at fast food or processed foods with a more educated framework," she says.
It's a chance to explore the world.
Just make a deal with the whole family to agree upon one - just one - new fruit, vegetable, spice or grain each time you go to the grocery store, and make that the lesson for the week. Study up on its origins, nutritional benefits, cultural importance, cooking methods and traditional dishes and make it the star for one meal. They might not all be hits, but you as a family can decide which ones are crowned king of the kitchen and which are sent straight to the dungeon.
It's a confidence booster.
Not only might they end up cooking for you (and wouldn't that be a sweet treat?) - once they leave the nest, they'll be the superstar of their college dorm, apartment complex and (gasp!) even date night.

Fog is delaying the start of the school day Monday for students in four counties.
A two-hour fog delay was issued early Monday morning for Bertie County Schools, Edenton Chowan County Schools and Hertford County Public Schools. The delay in Gates County is one hour.
Fog has developed in many areas, though it's not expected to be as thick or widespread as the foggy conditions experienced over the weekend.

Decongestants for Allergic Rhinitis
Many over-the-counter decongestants are available. The following are a few examples:
|Generic Name
|Brand Name
Decongestants are available as nasal sprays, liquids, and pills.
In some areas, medicines containing pseudoephedrine (such as Sudafed) are kept behind the pharmacist's counter or require a prescription. You may need to ask the pharmacist for it or have a prescription from your doctor to buy the medicine.
How It Works
Decongestants narrow blood vessels, reducing the blood supply to nasal mucous membranes. This reduces stuffy and runny noses.
- Pill decongestants narrow blood vessels not only in the nose but also in other parts of the body, which can cause side effects such as high blood pressure and nervousness.
- Nasal decongestant sprays narrow blood vessels only in the nose and not in other parts of the body, so they rarely cause the side effects that pill decongestants do.
- You can use nasal decongestant sprays only for a few days. If you use them longer than this, your nasal congestion may get worse (rebound congestion). Using a nasal decongestant continually to avoid rebound congestion can result in dependence on the medicine.
Why It Is Used
You can use decongestants for a stuffy or runny nose caused by allergic rhinitis.
How Well It Works
Nasal spray decongestants work within about 10 minutes and may provide relief for up to 12 hours. Pill decongestants work within 30 minutes and may provide relief for up to 6 hours.
Decongestants do not help sneezing or itching. But some pill decongestants are combined with an antihistamine to help sneezing and itching. Examples include Allerest and Actifed. These medicines may not be safe for young children or for people who have certain health problems. Before you use them, check the label.
Side Effects
All medicines have side effects. But many people don't feel the side effects, or they are able to deal with them. Ask your pharmacist about the side effects of each medicine you take. Side effects are also listed in the information that comes with your medicine.
Here are some important things to think about:
- Usually the benefits of the medicine are more important than any minor side effects.
- Side effects may go away after you take the medicine for a while.
- If side effects still bother you and you wonder if you should keep taking the medicine, call your doctor. He or she may be able to lower your dose or change your medicine. Do not suddenly quit taking your medicine unless your doctor tells you to.
Call 911 or other emergency services right away if you have:
- Trouble breathing.
- Swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.
Call your doctor if you have:
- Hives.
- Fast or pounding heartbeat.
- Dizziness or lightheadedness.
- Difficult or painful urination.
- Headache.
Common side effects of this medicine include:
- Nervousness or restlessness.
- Trouble sleeping.
- Increased blood pressure.
See Drug Reference for a full list of side effects. (Drug Reference is not available in all systems.)
What To Think About
Decongestant nasal sprays should be used only for short periods of time (not more than 3 days in a row).
Many over-the-counter medicines for other health problems, such as some diet pills, contain decongestants. To avoid a possible overdose, do not take two medicines containing decongestants at the same time.
Be careful with these medicines. They may not be safe for young children or for people who have certain health problems, so check the label first. If you do use these medicines, always follow the directions about how much to use based on age and weight.
Instead of or along with using medicine, you can buy or make saltwater (saline) nasal sprays to help clear up a stuffy nose.
Taking medicine
Medicine is one of the many tools your doctor has to treat a health problem. Taking medicine as your doctor suggests will improve your health and may prevent future problems. If you don't take your medicines properly, you may be putting your health (and perhaps your life) at risk.
There are many reasons why people have trouble taking their medicine. But in most cases, there is something you can do. For suggestions on how to work around common problems, see the topic Taking Medicines as Prescribed.
Advice for women
If you are pregnant, breast-feeding, or planning to get pregnant, do not use any medicines unless your doctor tells you to. Some medicines can harm your baby. This includes prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, herbs, and supplements. And make sure that all your doctors know that you are pregnant, breast-feeding, or planning to get pregnant.
Follow-up care is a key part of your treatment and safety. Be sure to make and go to all appointments, and call your doctor if you are having problems. It's also a good idea to know your test results and keep a list of the medicines you take.

Witnesses described seeing men come and go from Alexis Wright's dance studio and rented office in Kennebunk, as testimony began in the trial of Mark Strong Sr.
ALFRED, Maine (AP) _ Witnesses in the trial of an insurance businessman accused of helping a fitness instructor engage in prostitution say they saw men come and go from her dance studio and rented office in Kennebunk.
Also, items discovered after a police executed a search warrant included a bin of used condoms, a massage table and a hidden video camera.
Testimony in the trial of 57-year-old Mark Strong Sr. began Thursday. Strong is accused of 13 counts dealing with promotion of prostitution.
Both he and the fitness instructor, Alexis Wright, have pleaded not guilty. Wright, who will be tried later, faces charges including engaging in prostitution.
Strong's lawyer said his client had an affair with the 30-year-old Wright and helped finance her Pura Vida dance-fitness studio, but knew nothing about prostitution.

The notorious artist Ai Weiwei has been detained by Chinese authorities with very little known information about his status and wellbeing*. He
has been was detained for 81 days, upsetting many in the art world for the treatment of an expressive artist in a country where outspoken expression is largely oppressed.
We, as artists and art viewers, should not let this happen. Protest the Chinese detention of Ai Weiwei. Boycott! Protest! Block Chinese sites until Ai Weiwei is released by preventing yourself from surfing into Chinese web territories.
Download the China Web Boycott extension for your browser and boycott Chinese websites whenever artists, like Ai Weiwei, are detained without explanation or justification. Be alerted when he is released, as well as when other artists are detained in China, and boycott Chinese web sites only when artists are being held in detention!

LEXINGTON - Clark County's size proved too much for the Oldham County Colonels to overcome as the Cardinals rolled to a 56-39 win in the opening round of the Sweet 16 Wednesday.
No. 3 ranked Clark County led just 14-12 at the close of the first quarter, but outscored OCHS 13-2 in the second quarter behind a stifling defensive effort and the inside play of 6-foot-5, 240-pound center Corey Rogers.
"I thought their length really took a toll on us in the second quarter," OCHS coach Jason Holland said. "We could throw over or around them and it really disrupted our offense."

A student has been arrested in connection with Monday's evacuation at the College of the Albermarle in Elizabeth City.
Authorities say Margaret White was charged with misdemeanor cyber stalking. Officials say she is a student at Elizabeth City State University.
The community college's Elizabeth City campus was shut down around 11:00 a.m. Monday after authorities say the school received an email threat.
Classes at the campus resumed today.
The 18-year-old White is from Tyner in Chowan County and was released on a $10,000 bond. White has an October 31st court date.
Previous Story
The website for the College of the Albemarle in Elizabeth City says the campus will re-open Tuesday after lawmen said an email threat to the school prompted the closure Monday.

The website alert said the campus was closed except for "mission essential personnel."
