What is a 'Direct Stock Purchase Plan - DSPP'
A direct stock purchase plan (DSPP) is an investment service that allows individuals to purchase a stock directly from a company or through a transfer agent. Not all companies offer DSPPs, and the plans often have restrictions on when an individual can purchase shares. The greatest benefit of using a DSPP for investors is the ability to avoid commissions by not going through brokers.
BREAKING DOWN 'Direct Stock Purchase Plan - DSPP'DSPPs often have minimum deposit requirements that range from $100 to $500. They are perfect for investors who have a long-term trading strategy and are looking for an inexpensive way to begin investing. DSPPs are an alternate path for the purchasing of stocks from a specific publicly traded company. Since the process does not involve a broker, most plans have lower or no associated fees, and have the ability to set up automatic periodic investments along with automatic reinvesting of any dividends earned.
The operation of a DSPP is regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in a way similar to that of a brokerage's activities. While the mechanism for investing may be slightly different than through a broker, the financial risks associated with such investments are equally present regardless of how the stock is purchased.
Company Offerings
While not all corporations offer DSPP options, those that do generally have information regarding the plans listed under investor relations or shareholder services within their websites or directories, and it is not uncommon for the plans to be administered by a third party. The resources listed provide information regarding any account minimums, investment minimums or fees applicable to their offerings.
Benefits to Investors
A main benefit to a DSPP is the lower costs. This is primarily due to the fact the services of a broker are not required to complete the transaction. Many DSPPs are offered online, allowing for easy access for investors to monitor and manage their accounts. Additionally, the third party administering the service also registers the sales directly on the company books. This means shareholders are not required to maintain physical certificates as proof of purchase.
Benefits to the Company
Often, offering the ability to purchase stock through a DSPP provides a company with the ability to raise additional funds at a reduced cost. Additionally, it may provide a mechanism through which new investors, such as those without the minimum fund requirements that must be deposited by some brokerages, that meet the requirements of the DSPP can gain access to invest in the company.

Upcoming state conventions
I will be going to the Texas convention in June. I saw that the Sanders supporters wanted to see if they could steal delegates at the state conventions. Under each state delegate selection plan, the number of delegates were allocated based on the primary and you cannot vary that. In addition, each Democratic candidate has absolute right to approve all of their pledged delegates and I know that the Clinton campaign is vetting all of her pledged delegates in Texas (I am helping vet the delegates from my senate district).
The rules for Democratic conventions and GOP conventions are very different.
The Texas GOP convention is this weekend and there is open carry inside that convention. Anyone want to bet on the number of people shot by "accident" at that convention?

Source: ThinkProgress
Maricopa County Superior Court Judge David Gass has tossed a lawsuit from a Tucson, Arizona voter challenging the March 22 presidential primary, which was marred by confusion, 5-hour lines, and rampant errors.
Judge Gass noted that while glitches are always something that we need to wary of and we need to work hard, and we need to fix them they dont rise to the level of fraud. He declined the litigants request to have the results of the election big wins for Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton thrown out.
I cant find that one, there were illegal votes and two I cant find it would have made a difference in the outcome of the election, he said. The election would have been the same. The judge added that re-doing the election wouldnt be fair to the more than 1 million Arizonans who did manage to cast a ballot in March.
Another lawsuit filed by the campaigns of Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton continues, demanding the U.S. District Court of Phoenix review why the county cut the number of available polling places from 200 to 60, leaving only one voting center for every 21,000 voters. That lawsuit, which is joined by the Democratic National Committee, the Arizona Democratic Party, the president of the Navajo Nation, and the campaign of Ann Kirkpatrick, also slams the states arbitrary rejection of provisional ballots at alarming rates, especially those cast by Hispanic voters.

This lawsuit was poorly drafted and had no chance.

Bernie Sanders Unlikely to Flip Many Texas Superdelegates
I know several of the Texas super delegates and I agree with this analysis https://www.texastribune.org/2016/04/21/bernie-sanders-campaign-unlikely-flip-many-texas-s/
If Sanders has a shot at the nomination, some of those hundreds of superdelegates would have to be from Texas. But according to a handful of interviews among the states power brokers on Wednesday, turning on the former U.S. secretary of state will be a hard sell in the Lone Star State.
Most superdelegates are current or former officeholders or members of the Democratic National Committee. The party created the designation in the early 1980s to exert some control over the nomination process.
While Sanders has a few dozen superdelegates backing his campaign, Clinton dominates in support of those Democrats nationally and particularly in Texas.
Im trying to figure out what metric I should look at in making a decision to suddenly flip my support for Bernie Sanders," said state Rep. Rafael Anchia, a superdelegate from Dallas. Hillary Clinton won the district that I represent 70 to 30 percent; she won the state of Texas 65 to 35 percent, roughly; she has won far more states than he has; she has won more pledged delegates than he has."
It's an argument many other superdelegates from Texas and elsewhere echoed.
I have met Rafael at several fundraisers and is a smart person

A reason for Closed Primaries-Does anyone remember Limbaugh's Operation Chaos?
Does anyone remember 2008 and Limbaugh's Operation Chaos? McCain wrapped up the GOP nomination very early and so GOP voters could vote in Democratic primaries that were open. Limbaugh pushed a project to try to hurt President Obama that he called "Operation Chaos" where GOP voters voted in the Democratic primary to try to keep the contest open for as long as possible. There is some evidence that this program may have worked in Indiana http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/05/07/AR2008050703932.html
Even as Barack Obama's campaign celebrated Tuesday's primary results, aides charged yesterday that they would have had an even stronger showing were it not for meddling by an unlikely booster of Hillary Rodham Clinton: the popular conservative radio host and longtime Clinton family nemesis Rush Limbaugh.
The impact of Limbaugh's "Operation Chaos" emerged as an intriguing point of debate, particularly in Indiana, where registered voters could participate in either party's primary, and where Clinton won by a mere 14,000 votes. As he had before several recent primaries, Limbaugh encouraged listeners to vote for Clinton to "bloody up Obama politically" and prolong the Democratic fight.
Limbaugh crowed about the success of his ploy all day Tuesday, featuring on-air testimonials from voters in Indiana and North Carolina who recounted their illicit pleasure in casting a vote for Clinton. "Some of the people show up and they ask for a Democrat ballot, and the poll worker says, 'Why, what are you going to do?' He says, 'Operation Chaos,' and they just laugh," Limbaugh said Tuesday.
But Limbaugh called off the operation yesterday, saying he wants Obama to be the party's pick, because "I now believe he would be the weakest of the Democrat nominees."
He added: "He can get effete snobs, he can get wealthy academics, he can get the young, and he can get the black vote, but Democrats do not win with that."
Democrats should get to pick the Democratic nominee. Limbaugh threatened a new version this year but that effort fizzled

The Revolution Will Be Fantasized- The Sanders revolution has not materialized in real world yet
Sanders proposals are not realistic and would have no chance in the real world where the GOP would block such pie in the sky proposals. Sanders justify his platform by promising a revolution where millions and millions of voters would show up and force the GOP to be reasonable. That revolution exists only in a fantasy world and has not been evident in the real world http://www.usnews.com/opinion/blogs/robert-schlesinger/articles/2016-04-15/bernie-sanders-bad-delegate-math-and-fantasy-revolution
He went on to argue that he's going to win because he'll pile up votes now that the contest has moved out of the Deep South. This is a shorthand version of an argument that Sanders and his allies have been deploying recently in an attempt to downplay Clinton's lead in pledged delegates "having so many Southern states go first kind of distorts reality" he told Larry Wilmore, host of "The Nightly Show," earlier this week.
There's a lot wrong with this formulation, as Paul Krugman wrote in The New York Times this morning. It suggests a world view redolent of former half-term Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin's toxic pandering to "real America." In Sanders' case, he's saying that red-state Democrats should be discounted because they're too conservative. But that's simply wrong, Krugman notes: Clinton isn't "riding a wave of support from old-fashioned Confederate-flag-waving Dixiecrats," she ran up the score by scoring lopsided victories among black voters ("let's be blunt, the descendants of slaves," he writes).
And the fact that the Deep South is conservative should be irrelevant, given that Sanders argues the principle obstacle to his super progressive agenda is campaign finance corruption rather than, say, ideology. Either he's leading a national movement, as he claims, or he's not.
Thus more broadly, his attempt to delegitimize a swath of voters lays bare a fundamental inconsistency of the Sanders campaign: One of his basic answers about how he's going to accomplish his aims whether winning the Democratic nod, winning the general election or enacting his agenda is the forthcoming revolution. His super-ambitious agenda will prove to be achievable substance rather than unicorns-and-rainbows fantasy, he said Thursday night, "when millions of people stand up, fight back and create a government that works for all of us, not just the 1 percent. That is what the political revolution is about. That is what this campaign is about."
And that's fine: If he can summon the revolution, then more power to him, literally and figuratively. But the Sanders revolution is breaking on the hard realities of math. The revolution will not be televised, the old song goes; but it can be fantasized and it can be measured, in votes and delegates. And in every calculable respect, it's coming up short. That leaves Sanders to bank on an anti-democratic sleight of hand to secure the nomination. That's not a broad-based revolution; that's a palace coup.
Here's why: Despite Sanders' recent string of victories, there is no sense in which he is winning this race. As The Washington Post's Philip Bump wrote earlier this week:
In fact, by every possible democratic measure, Clinton is winning. She's winning in states (and territories) won, which isn't a meaningful margin of victory anyway. She's winning in the popular vote by 2.4 million votes more than a third more than Sanders has in total. In part that's because Sanders is winning lower-turnout caucuses, but it's mostly because he's winning smaller states. And she's winning with both types of delegates.
Sanders' revolution is not real which is why he is losing the race in the real world.

Vox: Most Bernie Sanders supporters aren't willing to pay for his revolution
This is an interesting article http://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2016/4/14/11421744/bernie-sanders-tax-revolution
Bernie Sanders says his platform makes financial sense for most Americans. For example, his campaign says Sanders's single-payer health care system would save an average family of four almost $6,000 per year.
But in order to pay for his proposed programs, Sanders needs to increase taxes on virtually everyone in America. So if you're a voter, the question is simple:
When we polled voters, we found most Sanders supporters aren't willing to pay more than an additional $1,000 in taxes for his biggest proposals. That's well short of how much more the average taxpayer would pay under his tax plan.
We asked voters how much more they are willing to pay for nationalized health care and free public college
We conducted a poll the week of April 4 in partnership with the nonpartisan technology and media company Morning Consult. In it, we asked voters how much more they would be willing to pay for two of Sanders's big propositions: a universal health care system covering all Americans and free tuition at public colleges and universities.
Most Americans say they are willing to pay something extra for these programs:
Nationalized health care: Around 80 percent of Sanders supporters are willing to pay more in federal taxes for universal health care coverage, compared with about 70 percent of Clinton supporters and about 40 percent of those supporting a Republican candidate.
Two in three Sanders supporters don't want to pay more than $1,000, or at all, for universal health care
About 66 percent of Sanders supporters said they wouldn't be willing to pay more than an additional $1,000 in taxes for universal health care. This includes the 8 percent of Sanders supporters who aren't willing to pay anything at all.
Sanders platform is not being supported by Sandes own supporters.

Sanders Campaign Suspends Jewish Outreach Head for Colorful Anti-Netanyahu Facebook Rant
I just saw that this lady was hired and now she is gone http://www.slate.com/blogs/the_slatest/2016/04/14/sanders_campaign_suspends_jewish_outreach_coordinator_for_facebook_rant.html
On Tuesday, Bernie Sanders announced the hiring of Simone Zimmerman, an outspoken critic of Israeli policy and its prime minister, as his campaigns national Jewish outreach coordinator. The appointment was met with near instantaneous condemnation by the American Jewish establishment. By Thursday, the Sanders campaign announced it was suspending Zimmerman to investigate an exceptionally critical Facebook post from March 2015 attributed to her that characterized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as sanctioning mass murder. "F___k you, Bibi..." the post read.
Heres more from the New York Times on the ideological divide that Zimmerman represents:
Ms. Zimmerman, who declined to comment, has been active in left-wing Jewish politics for years and came up in organizations such as J Street, but has also worked closely with Jewish synagogues in Los Angeles, and with young Jews on myriad trips to Israel. While the American Jewish establishment considers her and her allies radical, she and young Jewish activists argue that their disgust with the Netanyahu governments policies is inching toward the mainstream.

Hillary Clinton, Democratic Party To Sue Arizona For 5-Hour Voting Lines
The Clinton campaign is suing to protect voting rights in Wisconsin, North Carolina, Ohio and Virginia. Add Arizona to that list http://thinkprogress.org/politics/2016/04/14/3769482/arizona-lawsuit-voting/
This Friday, a group of Maricopa County voters will sue the state of Arizona over the disastrous primary election in March that left them waiting up to five hours in the desert heat to cast a ballot. They will be supported in the case by Hillary Clintons campaign, the Democratic National Committee, the Arizona Democratic Party, the president of the Navajo Nation, and the campaign of Ann Kirkpatrick, who is challenging Sen. John McCain for his seat in Congress.
Arizonans were denied their constitutional right to vote because those who run the system werent prepared, and it can never happen again, Kirkpatrick said in an e-mailed statement. Todays action is about representing every Arizona voter who stood in line for far too long or was forced to go home without casting a ballot.
The case demands the U.S. District Court of Phoenix review why the county cut the number of available polling places from 200 to 60, leaving only one voting center for every 21,000 voters, and ensure there are adequate polls open for this Novembers general election, which will have even higher voter turnout. Even in the lower-turnout March primary, some polling places ran out of ballots.....
The new lawsuit from the Democratic Party aims to remedy the problem before November, when the key swing state could help determine the fate of both the White House and the Senate. Democrats are also suing in four other swing states Wisconsin, Ohio, Virginia and North Carolina over allegations of voter suppression against students, people of color, and the poor.
DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz argued Thursday that policies in these states are a deliberate attempt by Republican officials to maintain their power. They want nothing less than to disenfranchise voting groups who are inconvenient to them on Election Day, she said. Thats exactly what Arizonas officials did when they closed polling locations and rejected thousands of provisional ballots, and its exactly what theyll continue to do if left unchecked.

SEC Charges Ken Paxton With Securities Fraud
Source: Texas Tribune
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has been charged in federal court with allegedly misleading investors in a technology company.
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filed the charges Monday in a Sherman-based court. They are similar to the allegations Paxton faces in a pending indictment handed up by a Collin County grand jury last year.
Paxton is named in the SEC's complaint along with William Mapp, the founder and former CEO of Servergy Inc. Paxton is accused of raising hundreds of thousands of dollars for Servergy without disclosing he was making a commission.
"People recruiting investors have a legal obligation to disclose any compensation they are receiving to promote a stock, and we allege that Paxton and White concealed the compensation they were receiving for touting Servergys product," Shamoil T. Shipchandler, director of the SECs Fort Worth regional office, said in a news release on the complaint.

Thermaltake "SHARK" Series Enclosure Review
Installation Notes
Installation was pretty straightforward as was to be expected, but there are a few notes to bring up regarding this phase of the testing.
While the removable motherboard tray is a huge plus, you'll see a rectangular hole toward the right edge of the tray. Around this hole is a raised edge where the metal was folded to negate sharp edges. This too is a good idea, but the raised edge was an initial cause for concern when I was installing the mainboard.
The board used for testing was an ABIT AV8 for the Socket 939 Athlon 64 processors. This new breed of motherboard comes with a heat spreader on the bottom of the board that sits directly under the processor socket. While I was able to install the board with no large stress areas caused by the spreader sitting on top of the raised ridge, you might want to check the seat of the motherboard before you crank down on the mounting screws. Just a word of caution.
For those who have a habit of losing things all the time, this may be a true blessing to you. Since the optical devices use a rail system, there are no screw holes provided in the side panels of the optical drive bays. This means that you HAVE to use the rail system. To keep track of those rails, they are stored on the backside of the drive bay blank that is removed when you install a new device.
As for the rail installation, just use the normal mounting screws to install a rail on each side and it will easily slide right into place. I used the lower set of mounting holes on the drive and the middle screw hole on the rail for a perfect fit in the enclosure.
For those who are still using a floppy drive or have some sort of backup device that fits into a 3.5" drive bay, you'll find it an easy task to install the device. The floppy drive bay comes out on a rail system of its own as one unit with two bays. Just mount the device(s) into the bay and slide it back home. It is as easy as that.

The OFDM (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) transmission technique has a flexibility to adapt the modulation scheme on sub-carriers according to the channel performance, i.e. signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). In an outdoor high mobility environment most of the adaptive OFDM systems provide channel information, transmitted from the receiver. The allocation of bits to sub-carriers is performed by so-called loading algorithms based on information provided by the receiver. Presently, modification of loading algorithm is reported with observed decrease in computational complexity without any loss of performance as compared to the known algorithm. The study was carried out for mobile communication systems considering the channel to be frequency selective and fast fading.

Video: Justin Bieber Covers Johnny Cash's 'Ring of Fire'
Justin Bieber goes country in a video featuring him covering Johnny Cash's "Ring of Fire". Shared via the Canadian superstar's Instagram on Tuesday, August 26, the clip came with a caption that read, "We wake up singin good ol johny cash @khalil came with with the crazy tone lol."
The brief video shows shirtless Bieber sitting at the keyboard and singing the country tune with an acoustic guitar in hand. Pal Khalil, also shirtless, joins him to perform the track from Cash's 1963 album "Ring of Fire: The Best of Johnny Cash".
This is not Bieber's first time to have shown interest in country music. Back in 2011, he won CMT's Best Collaborative Video award for his collaboration with Rascal Flatts, "That Should Be Me". Responding to the win, the Biebs said he and his mother were both country fans.
In the same year, Bieber also wrote a song with country/pop superstar Taylor Swift. The song, however, has yet to see the light of day.

WHERE, like a pillow on a bed,
A pregnant bank swell'd up, to rest
The violet's reclining head,
Sat we two, one another's best.
Our hands were firmly cemented
By a fast balm, which thence did spring ;
Our eye-beams twisted, and did thread
Our eyes upon one double string.
So to engraft our hands, as yet
Was all the means to make us one ;
And pictures in our eyes to get
Was all our propagation.
As, 'twixt two equal armies, Fate
Suspends uncertain victory,
Our souls—which to advance their state,
Were gone out—hung 'twixt her and me.
And whilst our souls negotiate there,
We like sepulchral statues lay ;
All day, the same our postures were,
And we said nothing, all the day.
If any, so by love refined,
That he soul's language understood,
And by good love were grown all mind,
Within convenient distance stood,
He—though he knew not which soul spake,
Because both meant, both spake the same—
Might thence a new concoction take,
And part far purer than he came.
This ecstasy doth unperplex
(We said) and tell us what we love ;
We see by this, it was not sex ;
We see, we saw not, what did move :
But as all several souls contain
Mixture of things they know not what,
Love these mix'd souls doth mix again,
And makes both one, each this, and that.
A single violet transplant,
The strength, the colour, and the size—
All which before was poor and scant—
Redoubles still, and multiplies.
When love with one another so
Interanimates two souls,
That abler soul, which thence doth flow,
Defects of loneliness controls.
We then, who are this new soul, know,
Of what we are composed, and made,
For th' atomies of which we grow
Are souls, whom no change can invade.
But, O alas ! so long, so far,
Our bodies why do we forbear?
They are ours, though not we ; we are
Th' intelligences, they the spheres.
We owe them thanks, because they thus
Did us, to us, at first convey,
Yielded their senses' force to us,
Nor are dross to us, but allay.
On man heaven's influence works not so,
But that it first imprints the air ;
For soul into the soul may flow,
Though it to body first repair.
As our blood labours to beget
Spirits, as like souls as it can ;
Because such fingers need to knit
That subtle knot, which makes us man ;
So must pure lovers' souls descend
To affections, and to faculties,
Which sense may reach and apprehend,
Else a great prince in prison lies.
To our bodies turn we then, that so
Weak men on love reveal'd may look ;
Love's mysteries in souls do grow,
But yet the body is his book.
And if some lover, such as we,
Have heard this dialogue of one,
Let him still mark us, he shall see
Small change when we're to bodies gone.
Please verify you're human:

Former supermodel-turned-U.K. reality Tv star Caprice Bourret is pregnant with her first child.
The leggy beauty was snapped this week (ends03May13) showing off her growing belly while wearing a bikini during a vacation in Florida, and her agent has confirmed the 41 year old is expecting a baby with her boyfriend of two years, Ty Comfort.
The former Wonderbra model is due to give birth in the autumn (13), reports the DailyMail.co.uk.
Bourret's happy news comes just months after she competed in the British version of high-diving reality show Splash! in January (13), during which she confessed that her sex life had suffered as a result of the battering her body was taking from her time in the pool.
She said, "I am like, 'Honey, sorry, you can't touch me tonight, I am in too much pain'. Our love life has been a disaster. I have said to Ty, 'You can forget it. It's non-existent while I am doing this show'."

Entire congregation quits over appointment of gay Scottish minister
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
I really don't see this news as any great shakes really. Churches are entirely allowed to do what they wish internally, and certainly the congregation have made their feelings known.
Rather a shame for the minister, but I would just hold out and do my job, and with any luck, the flock might yet regather.
so they show how bigoted they are
Wouldn't be the first time the Kirk has had a split over dogma, would it? Some of these who are so against gay people in their church have every right- but they really need to catch up on a few miss translated passages from the originals over the centuries – the originals having been rediscovered and the translations corrected, and what created the miss translations – ancient homophobia! But we should know better now should we not – unless of course another adgenda is in operation – never mind the facts.
More religious discrimination. Rampant as ever, exclusively religious homophobic discrimination is going unchallenged. These idiots need to take their heads out their arses and stop hiding behind scripture. Discrimination is unacceptable in any area of our discourse; work, socially, school etc.. Why is it any different in the religious sphere?
Biblical orthodoxy.
What exactly is that??
Talk about over the top drama – This should read "Entire congregation has a hissy fit over appointment of gay Scottish minister"
So now prejudice and ignorance are considered "Biblical orthodoxy"? How enlightened.
No loss then. If they cannot deal with their homophobia being unacceptable, then let them thro& minister who panders to their bigotry and who tells them only what they want to hear, rather than encourage being challenged about being kind decent human beings.
The headline for this article is wrong (or at least potentially misleading) on several counts. Rather than "Entire congregation quits over appointment of gay Scottish minister," it should read "Bahaman congregation leaves Scottish Church over gay ministers."
I am not surprised that some of the commentators here haven't troubled to read the article before weighing in, but one would rather hope that the subeditors of Pink News might have done so before appending a headline.
They really do know how to portray themselves as good 'christian's don't they, doubt if they'd be missed, at least it will be quieter without their wailing and carrying on ! Miserable kants !
Good grief, as though anybody cares what the Church of Scotland in the Bahamas – I mean, honestly! – gets up to!
Please God rapture these religious phoneys off to a suitably secure homophobic heaven and keep them there for all eternity.

Serpenthrone Lyrics by Abused Majesty
Serpenthrone by Abused Majesty
We were the fire, that devoured all
Carrions, the brood of man, bended their necks
We were the thunder, unequalled
In our rule life and death (united with the spirits)
Nine spirits of the fourth corner
Were mighty inside the trapezoid
A torture for the damned, a wreath for the wicked
Walking the Earth with stings of fury
Enough strength, to burn it all
Indivisibly carrying scepter above
Enough strength, to destroy it all
Dividing cord and the blade between
So hearken my voice
As I granted you form and power
And your works shall be a honorable canto
And glory for the Lord in creation
At my throne they crawled like snakes
Begging for mercy, vermin of the Earth
(In shadow of his might
Will they pray for ages)
We were the fire, that devoured all
Carrions, the brood of man, bended their necks
Many souls followed their own path, (alluring but without return)
Others gave away themselves to the Primeval Lord of the Earth.

New US school shooting on eve of Newtown anniversary
Los Angeles: A schoolboy armed with a shotgun opened fire and wounded two fellow students before killing himself, the latest US mass shooting on the eve of the Newtown school massacre anniversary.
The shooter also set off a Molotov cocktail in yesterday`s attack at Arapahoe High School in Colorado, a few miles from the sites of last year`s Aurora cinema shooting and the 1999 Columbine bloodbath, police said.
One of the victims, a 15-year-old female, underwent surgery and was listed in "critical condition," Arapahoe County Sheriff Grayson Robinson said.
Hundreds students locked themselves into classrooms as the shooter -- identified by authorities as Karl Pierson, 18 -- stormed into the school brandishing a shotgun, shouting that he was looking for a particular teacher in what police said was apparently a planned "revenge" attack.
America`s perennial gun control debate is back in the headlines on the anniversary Saturday of the 2012 school shooting in Newtown, Connecticut that killed 26 people, including 20 young children.
In yesterday`s incident, students locked themselves in classrooms after shots rang out shortly after 12:30 pm local time, triggering an all-too-familiar police operation.
The shooter arrived by car with a shotgun and entered the school via a normal entrance, Robinson said.
The shooting appeared to be "the result of revenge" because of "a disagreement (with) the teacher that the shooter was looking for," he said.
Pierson "made no effort to hide it or conceal" the shotgun, said Robinson, who added that there was no warning before the attack.
Two Molotov cocktails were found, one of which was detonated and caused "a significant amount of smoke" as deputies arrived, he added.
Less than five minutes after the initial alert, the suspected gunman was "found inside the school... Deceased as a result of what appears to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound," he said.
One student described how he and his 25 or so classmates locked themselves in when the incident started as they sat in English class.
"We didn`t really know if it was a gunshot," Colton Powers told local KDVR television. "We turned off the lights and locked the door, so he couldn`t go in."
"A couple of people were crying," he said, adding they did not come out until a police SWAT team arrived. He said students believed the gunman`s target was a school librarian.
His mother fought back tears as she described frantically trying to get in touch with him.
"It`s hard to see this happening again. You don`t want this on the national news again," she said. "It`s the last thing you want to go through, especially here."

Part requiem, part enquiry, but all action, this scathing World War II epic is set during the costly 1944 Allied invasion of Italy.
Following Manhattan and Annie Hall, and before his break-up with Mia Farrow and the demise of his financiers Orion, Allen made several remarkable (though little-seen) films of which this is arguably the finest. Rowlands, writing a book in a rented apartment next door to a psychiatrist, overhears Farrow ruminating on her miserable life, and gets drawn into her world, prompting a radical reassessment of her own relationships.
Superbly written and directed by a film-maker at the peak of his creative power, and with a sublime performance by Rowlands to match, this film has not a joke in sight.

I'm going by when they fought Pac and not there primes.
1.Cotto - High KO ratio good puncher damaged but still had pop.
2.Clottey Low KO ratio Thudding power currently in Prime
3.ODLH Dead man walking when he fought Pac
4.Hatton - Decent KO ratio at lower weight class. Clearly on downside when he fought Pac.

He's not a knockout puncher, but Clottey's punches seem to hurt more than Hatton and De La Hoya's. Cotto was a harder puncher though.

Here's an earlier thread:
I think it's called "Twin City Liner" and I'd recommend it. Takes you from city center to city center.
Report Abuse
The Twin City Liner , a relatively new catamaran , just runs Vienna- Bratislava.
A hydrofoil does make the journey Vienna- Budapest
I would not recommend it.
This is a soviet era hydrofoil- old although renovated ,loud, slow 6 hour jouney, costly, limited luggage..
Scenery is not great
and much cheaper - a better value-
use time saved for sightseeing in either city.
Train faster, more frequent service, comfortable, quiet , clean
Report Abuse
We took the train in July, 2nd second class tickets, bought 30 days in advance from Budapest to Vienna were 30 euros each. IIRC, train ride is 2 hours, we brought a picnic lunch. We hired a driver (Mike's Chauffer Service) out of Prague to drive us from Vienna to Cesky Krumlov to Prague for a day trip. Highly recommend both.

30 euro ? too much money-

My sincere apologies! I misread "Budapest" as "Bratislava."
Thank you Molker for the correction.

Thanks all - esp molker w/the website for the Bratislava boat. Will take the advice & train to Budapest

From Vienna you may want to do the shorter - much shorter Danube boats to nearby Bratislava - I did it as a day trip by train - just one hour each way - boat may take a bit longer but not nearly the 6-hour marathon mokker points out - and like mokker says you can score deep discounts on trains - for lots of general info on Central European trains check www.seat61.com - good info on discounted tickets; and for general info - www.ricksteeves.com and www.budgeteuropetravel.com.
In Vienna I highly recommend a day trip to Melk (famous abbey) then a boat ride thru the awesome vineyard-carpeted Wachau Valaley to Durnstein - cute wine town and then bus-train back to Vienna - if you want to do one Danube ride this is the best IME - the most scenic part I think of the whole Danube - buy one all-inclusive ticket for everything in Vienna at train station.

"Differential trends in weight-related health behaviors among American young adults by gender, race/ethnicity, and socioeconomic status: 1984-2006." American Journal of Public Health, 99(10): 1893-901.
OBJECTIVES: We investigated temporal patterns from 1984 to 2006 in 6 weight-related health behaviors by using longitudinal data for multiple cohorts of young adults (aged 19-26 years) from the nationally representative Monitoring the Future Study. METHODS: We used growth curve models to examine historical trends in 6 health behaviors: frequency of eating breakfast, eating green vegetables, eating fruit, exercising, watching television, and sleeping 7 hours each night. Variations across gender, race/ethnicity, and socioeconomic status were investigated. RESULTS: Frequency of exercising was consistently lower among young adult women than young adult men over this 23-year period. Compared with White women, Hispanic women, and women from other race/ethnic groups, Black women showed declines in the frequency of exercise since 1984. In general, young adult women showed a marked increase in the frequency of eating breakfast over this period, although Black women did not show any net gains. CONCLUSIONS: Social disparities in body weight may increase because Black women, Hispanic women, and men with lower socioeconomic status show declining trends in positive weight-related health behaviors compared with White young adults with higher socioeconomic status.

Late afternoon on Day 3 of a festival can be an iffy timeŌĆöfatigue has likely set in, and you need an act to help you push through and keep your spark alive. For that, Capital Cities is just the ticket.
Happy, catchy and fresh are all words that come to mind when considering the L.A.-based band, currently touring with material from ŌĆ£In a Tidal Wave of Mystery,ŌĆØ their first LP, released in June 2013. Usually labeled as indie pop, Capital Cities, led by founding duo Ryan Merchant and Sebu Simonian, are carving a special niche in the genre with their infectious hooks and dedication to celebrating all things positiveŌĆöand also fusing trumpets, synthesizers and Daniel Day Lewis references into dance-y pop tunes.
Blazing their own trail has been a pattern for Capital Cities. Merchant and Simonian met in 2008 in L.A. through Craigslist and began writing music for commercials, which they did as a team for two years before forming the band.
ŌĆ£We both played in numerous bands throughout our lives,ŌĆØ Ryan Merchant told the IN. ŌĆ£The commercial thing was actually a very short detour in our musical lives where we found this opportunity to write music and make money, and it was fun. We took a little break from playing in bands, but through that process we started writing songs together.ŌĆØ
Merchant said the two built a catalog of extracurricular pieces while writing for commercials, including what became ŌĆ£Safe and Sound.ŌĆØ Merchant explained that while seeking a direction for the band, the ŌĆ£electronic placeŌĆØ they found themselves in with that track shaped the ŌĆ£electronic, funky, disco-inspiredŌĆØ music that Capital Cities creates. The duo also happened upon what has now become a trademark of their unique take on dance pop while searching for a way to elevate the songŌĆÖs melody then (in its tenth incarnation) played on synthesizer.
ŌĆ£We both felt like it needed to be played by an instrument that elevated it and took it to this regal, epic place,ŌĆØ Merchant recalled of their decision to use a trumpet on the track. ŌĆ£Serendipitously, a few months later we met our trumpet player, Spencer Ludwig, who now plays with us live. HeŌĆÖs such a creative, amazing musician that we started incorporating trumpet on a bunch of the songs, and it became this integral part of our recording and our live show.ŌĆØ
While generating buzz on the web in 2011, an alternative radio station in Lima, Peru discovered ŌĆ£Safe and Sound,ŌĆØ and put it on heavy rotation. The band quickly built a following in South America. ŌĆ£Given the size we were at in the United States, it was interesting to go thereŌĆöwe could play a show to almost 1,000 people there even though in the U.S. we were much smaller,ŌĆØ Merchant said. The international buzz only helped. From that point, touring (including appearances at South by Southwest for the past three years) and continued blogosphere action resulted in Capitol Records signing Lazy Hooks, Merchant and SimonianŌĆÖs indie label, and releasing ŌĆ£In a Tidal Wave of Mystery.ŌĆØ
The album showcases the good things in life, most explicitly in the recent single, ŌĆ£Farah Fawcett HairŌĆØ featuring fellow Hangout artist, OutkastŌĆÖs Andre 3000.
ŌĆ£It was the one song on the album where we really were not following any conventions as far as pop music is concerned,ŌĆØ Merchant said. When looking to add a little hip-hop to the mix of elements, one artist came to mind: ŌĆ£Going along with the theme of the song, which is the idea of undeniably good things in life, the person that come to mind was Andre 3000, because we really respect his work and we love the tone of his voice and his whole persona.ŌĆØ
The collaboration occurred and now Capital Cities, like Outkast, are playing some of the biggest festivals in the U.S. this summer, including Coachella and Bonnaroo. The band will follow up the festival run by opening for Katy Perry on multiple dates this summer, a move that may have some raising their eyebrows, but is par for the course for the bandŌĆÖs thus-far wild and self-determined ride.
ŌĆ£This is different because youŌĆÖre opening up for a much bigger artist and playing to her crowd. It will be an interesting experience because in a sense youŌĆÖre trying to win over people who might not know you,ŌĆØ Merchant said. ŌĆ£Our goal is to put on a compelling show and have them say, ŌĆśWow, I really like that opening band. I want to follow them or see their next show when they come back to town.ŌĆÖŌĆØ
