General Course Information...
Our Course...
Fidelity Investigative Training Academy is proud to provide a course of instruction for Illinois residents wishing to obtain a non-resident Arizona Concealed Firearm Permit. Our course is tailored to introduce the student to relevant Arizona laws that pertain to the concealed carry permit, the practical aspects of concealed carry, firearm safety, home safety, firearm basics, ammunition, and maintenance. When you decide to register, click on the links provided on this page to go to our main website.

Are provided by Biometric Impressions, a State of Illinois licensed and approved fingerprint vendor. Fingerprints are laser scanned by the "live scan" process, and then printed onto fingerprint cards using the latest technology. This method eliminates unreadable fingerprint cards created by inexperienced or untrained individuals, and results in 100% readable fingerprints every time. Why take chances anywhere else?
Many "all-in-one" courses use unlicensed individuals to fingerprint applicants, resulting in the FBI rejecting fingerprint cards due to poorly-taken prints. When this happens, the application is sent back to the applicant and additional fingerprints are requested. This prolongs the process greatly. By using a State of Illinois licensed fingerprint specialists, approved by the Illinois State Police, prints that are picture-perfect are sent in, to assure that the permit is issued quickly.

All of our firearms instructors are certified NRA Law Enforcement Firearms Instructors and NRA Civilian Firearms Instructors. In addition, the firearms instructor for this course is a State of Utah-certified Concealed Firearms Instructor.

I am considering obtaining an Arizona concealed weapons permit. What do I do?
Review the Arizona concealed carry law, ARS 13-3112 and Arizona Administrative Rules R13-9-101 through R13-9-603. We recommend you also review ARS 13-3101 and Title 18 USC section 922(d & g) for complete eligibility criteria and ARS 13-3102, Misconduct Involving Weapons.
How do I apply for an Arizona CCW permit?
Complete the CCW course. Ensure you fill out the rest of the application and affix your signature. Send the completed application, a fingerprint card, and the applicable fee to DPS. The instructor should provide a pre-addressed return envelope but if not, mail your materials to:
P.O. Box 6488
Phoenix, AZ 85005-6488.
How long will it take?
It takes approximately 60 business days to complete all of the required qualification checks.
Is the application fee to DPS refundable if I do not qualify for a CCW permit?
How do I know if I meet the eligibility requirements?
The eligibility requirements are clearly listed in ARS 13-3112. In addition to those requirements, an individual must not be a prohibited possessor as described in ARS 13-3101 and Title 18 USC section 922(d) and (g).
What do I need to do to renew my CCW permit?
The Concealed Weapon Permit Unit (CWPU) mails a courtesy renewal packet to customers whose permits are due to expire. The packet is mailed to the address on record approximately 90 days prior to the expiration date. The packet includes a renewal application and pre-addressed return envelope. Complete the renewal application, include the applicable fee, and mail them to DPS. No cash or personal checks please or your application will be returned causing a delay in processing.
If you have not received your courtesy renewal packet, you may print the renewal application from this site.
Please complete the application and submit it along with the applicable fee to: AZ DPS-CWPU P.O. Box 6488 Phoenix, AZ 85005-6488 Attn: Renewal.
If you are unable to print a renewal application call our office or email us. We will be happy to mail renewal materials to you.
Am I required to submit a fingerprint card when I renew my CCW permit?
Am I required to take a refresher course to renew my CCW permit?
No. An amendment to the Arizona concealed carry law, ARS 13-3112, effective September 21, 2006, eliminated the requirement for refresher training upon renewing a permit.
What if my permit expires, may I still renew?
You may be processed as a renewal between 90 days prior to expiration and 60 days after expiration. If your permit is expired more than 60 days, and you still want to possess a concealed-weapons permit, you must apply for a new permit. You may use your expired permit card as proof you have attended the firearms-safety training, if it is in good standing. See additional information under obtaining a permit.
Is there a grace period to renew and is my permit valid during that time?
As stated above, you may be processed as a renewal applicant up to 60 days after your permit expires. However, your permit is expired on the date listed.
Where can I get my fingerprints taken?
Please contact your local law enforcement agency or a private vendor about available fingerprint services. DPS does not provide applicant fingerprint services.
How long will it take for me to get my permit and what should I do with my expired permit?
By law the CWPU has 60 days to process an application. Typically applications are processed within fourteen days of receipt if no additional research is required. Please return your expired permit to the CWPU once the new one is received.
Can I pay my application fee with a personal check?
No. Acceptable forms of payment include money order, certified or cashier's check made payable to AZ DPS.
Can I carry a firearm into an establishment that serves alcoholic drinks for consumption on the premises if I have a CCW permit?
Yes, unless the establishment has posted signs prohibiting weapons (A.R.S. 4-229). You may not consume alcohol while in possession of your firearm (A.R.S. 4-244). There are some additional exceptions see A.R.S. 13-3102.
Can non-residents be issued an Arizona permit?
Yes. You must be a resident of Arizona or a U.S. citizen.
My application for a permit was not approved because of a felony arrest many years ago. The prosecutor dropped the charges and I was never prosecuted. What do I do now?
You must contact the respective prosecutor's office or involved court that handled the case and obtain documentation that specifically states you were not charged with and/or have no record of a felony conviction in regards to that specific charge and you are not currently under felony indictment in that jurisdiction. Submit that documentation to the CWPU within the time limit given on the denial letter. You may also request a review and challenge of your criminal history through that states Criminal History Records Section.
I heard that once you obtain an Arizona CCW permit, you have to carry concealed all of the time (if armed) and are forbidden to carry in the open. Is this true?
No. You may carry open or concealed.
I entered a private business with my concealed handgun and CCW permit. The business did not have any signs posted prohibiting weapons. Shortly thereafter, an employee approached me and said they do not allow firearms in their business and I must take the gun off the premises. Can they do that?
Yes. Arizona law permits private business owners (or their designates) to prohibit weapons from being brought onto their property, whether signs are posted or not. Private businesses are typically non-government operated businesses such as grocery and department stores, convenience stores, laundromats, banks, office complexes, etc. Failure to obey the request can result in your arrest for trespassing. (ARS 13-1502 / ARS 13-1503)
Are there any firearm restrictions?
Please see below for firearm restrictions:
What are the school exceptions when carrying concealed weapons?
Please see below for school exceptions (concealed or not):
What are the permit holder requirements?
Please see below for permit holder requirements:
What are the rules about carrying in states outside of Arizona?
It is extremely important that all Arizona Permit holders be aware of the CCW requirements and laws of all reciprocating/recognizing states. An Arizona CCW permit does not supersede any other state's law or CCW requirements. Persons carrying an Arizona permit are subject to the laws of the state they are visiting.
If you are an Arizona permit holder traveling to another state and wish to carry a concealed weapon using your Arizona permit, contact that state directly to confirm their recognition status before carrying concealed weapons there.
Some states only recognize permits from persons who are a resident of the issuing state.
Some states have an active CCW reciprocal agreement on file with the State of Arizona. This means your Arizona permit allows you to carry concealed under their respective state statute, and Arizona will reciprocate by recognizing CCW permits issued by these states, regardless of whether they are "Resident" or "Non-Resident," if so marked.

No promises but Flappy Bird creator Dong Nguyen said he has contemplated a re-release of the popular, and frustratingly difficult, mobile game as long as it came with a "warning" label, according to a report today from Rolling Stone.
"Please take a break," the warning would read, Nguyen said, as overuse by gamers prompted him to remove the highly popular game from the Apple App Store and Google Play store last month.
The difficult game, which charged players with navigating a cartoon bird through a series of pipes and controlling whether it would fly up or down by tapping, skyrocketed to the No. 1 app positions in both stores.
But with the meteoric rise came a slew of other problems, not only with Nguyen being stalked by paparazzi but also gamers complaining that the game had ruined their lives because of its difficult and addictive nature.
Since taking the game off the marketplace, Nguyen said he's felt "relief" in relieving that pressure from himself and his family.
"I can't go back to my life before, but I'm good now," Nguyen said.
You can read that full Examiner report by clicking here.
Nguyen said he hasn't yet worked on a new version of the game, but if he does it will be on his own accord, as he said he won't be selling a game to a third party.

Saints backup quarterback Luke McCown will have a chance Sunday to see both sides of the longstanding rivalry between his new team and the Atlanta Falcons when the NFC South rivals open the season in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome.
McCown, a former Louisiana Tech star, got a little taste of it last season when he was released by the Saints in preseason and was picked up a day later by the Falcons, who went on to win the division title and came within 10 yards of reaching Super Bowl XLVII.
While the teams' fans have enjoyed the feud for years, McCown believes the recent success of the Saints and Falcons have fanned the flames more. The Saints, who won Super Bowl XLIV in 2009, claimed the NFC South title that year and '11 as well, while the Falcons won in 2010 and '12.
"You have two very, very good organizations and it started when (Falcons coach) Mike Smith and (quarterback) Matt Ryan walked through the door and started winning games, pretty much like Sean Payton and Drew Brees did here," McCown said. "Organizationally, they took pretty similar paths."
NO MORE MCCLURE: When Ryan takes the field for his team's first offensive play Sunday, he'll still be getting used to a new center after the retirement of former Central High and LSU standout Todd McClure.
Ryan took snaps the past five seasons from McClure, a former seventh-round draft pick who became a mainstay of the Falcons' offensive line and started 194 of 197 games in a 13-year career.
"It's tough," Ryan said of not having McClure around. "It's one of those things where I've played with him for five years, my entire career, and he's been such an important part of helping me come along. But Peter Konz, who is playing center for us now, has done a great job in that transition."
INJURY REPORT: There were no changes Thursday to the practice report the Saints and Falcons issued following Wednesday's workout.
Not working Thursday for the Saints were S Isa Abdul-Quddus (ankle) and DE Glenn Foster (ankle).
For the Falcons, WR Roddy White (ankle), CB Asante Samuel (thigh) and LB Stephen Nicholas (thigh) were limited and K Matt Bryant (back) had full participation again.
DOWN TO A DOZEN: With the return of wide receiver Robert Meachem on Tuesday, the Saints only have 12 players on the active roster who won Super Bowl rings with the team just four seasons ago.
The others are Garrett Hartley, Thomas Morstead, Drew Brees, Marques Colston, Lance Moore, Pierre Thomas, Malcolm Jenkins, Jabari Greer, Roman Harper, Zach Strief and Jahri Evans.
Two other member of that 2009 team — Will Smith and Jonathan Vilma — are on injured reserve and do not count against the active roster.
'LOMBARDI' OPENS: If he finds the time this month, Saints quarterbacks coach Joe Lombardi might check out the season-opening play at the Le Petit Theater du Vieux Carre located at 616 St. Peter St. in New Orleans.
The theater makes its debut Friday night with "Lombardi," a play based on David Maraniss' book, "When Pride Still Mattered … A Life of Vince Lombardi."
Joe Lombardi is the grandson of the late NFL coaching legend and subject of the Broadway play, which runs through Sept. 21.
BRONCOS, NINERS FAVORED: According to Bovada.lv, the Denver Broncos and San Francisco 49ers are co-favorites to win Super Bowl XLVIII at 6 to 1 each.
The Saints are fifth among NFC teams and are the eighth choice to win it all at 18 to 1. The Falcons are tied for third among NFC teams at 12 to 1 along with the Green Bay Packers.
HORN TO APPEAR: Former Saints wide receiver Joe Horn will visit with fans at the Saints Hall of Fame Museum from 10 a.m. to 11:15 a.m. Sunday.
Horn will be available for photos and autographs at the museum, which is located at Gate B on the Plaza level of the Superdome and is open for three hours before and 45 minutes after each Saints' home game. Admission is free for ticket holders.

For nearly fifteen years Practical Decision Making in Health Care Ethics has offered scholars and students a highly accessible and teachable alternative to the dominant principle-based theories in the field. This third edition is revised and updated and includes discussions of several landmark cases, including the tragic stories of Terri Schiavo and Jesse Gelsinger (the first death caused by genetic research). Devettere addresses new topics such as partial-birth abortion law, embryonic stem cell research, infant euthanasia in The Netherlands, recent Vatican statements on feeding tubes, organ donation after cardiac death, new developments in artificial hearts, clinical trials developed by pharmaceutical companies to market new drugs, ghostwritten scientific articles published in major medical journals, and controversial HIV/AIDS research in Africa. This edition also includes a new chapter on the latest social and political issues in American health care. Devettere¿s engaging text relies on commonsense moral concepts and avoids academic jargon. It includes a glossary of legal, medical, and ethical terms; an index of cases; and thoroughly updated bibliographic essays at the end of each chapter that offer resources for further reading. It is a true classic, brilliantly conceived and executed, and is now even more valuable to undergraduates and graduate students, medical students, health care professionals, hospital ethics committees and institutional review boards, and general readers interested in philosophy, medicine, and the rapidly changing field of health care ethics.

Ghost Recon Online is an online-only, free-to-play shooter that has just had a name change to Ghost Recon: Phantoms. Ghost Recon: Phantoms is reaching the PC next month, according to Ubisoft.
Producer Corey Facteau explained in a Q&A post: "With all the changes the game has undergone since its conception, the team felt it deserved a 'fresh identity'." Phantoms has been in beta testing for 21 months now, has a new look, and will continue the franchise's showcase of "a realistic depiction of tomorrow's battlefield."
Ghost Recon: Phantoms will also include new character classes, new gear, and plans for "even more" additional content once it is released next month.

Bell's LG Optimus LTE to be released on November 22
Last month, we told you that Bell would launch the LG Optimus LTE in Canada. However, back then we didn't know when exactly this would happen. But if the leaked image seen below is accurate, the Canadian carrier will introduce this new LTE smartphone on November 22.
The Optimus LTE (which will also be released in the US by AT&T under the name of LG Nitro HD) is LG's first handset to feature an HD (1280 x 720 pixels) display. Other features include Android 2.3 Gingerbread (almost certainly upgradeable to Android 4. ICS), 1.5GHz dual-core processor, 1.3MP front-facing camera, and an 8MP rear camera with 1080 video recording.
Bell will reportedly sell the Optimus LTE for $149.95 with a new 3-yr agreement, or for $629.95 without contract.

This heartbreaking novel begins as a train pulls into the station in Janvilliers, France, in the middle of the night, and a "slight, dark-haired girl with two heavy suitcases, frowning into the rain and trying not to feel frightened," steps down from the train, hoping there will be someone there to meet her.
So opens this short novel by Sebastian Faulks, who is perhaps most famous for Birdsong, a work set again in France both before and during the Great War. It is the mid-1930's in The Girl at the Lion D'Or, and France is still struggling to recover from the cataclysm that was that war.
The girl' name is Anne Louvet. Anne is twice an orphan. She has arrived to take a job as a maid in a hotel. Someone has been sent to meet her, a nineteen year old with a spotted face named Roland, the first of several men she encounters in the small village of Janvilliers who will desire her body and plot consciously or unconsciously to satisfy their desires.
France in the 1930's was probably not a good place to be a young woman alone and without family, especially to be an uneducated but pretty young woman. Anne is almost entirely vulnerable. And to make that vulnerability apparent to us, Faulks gives us an early scene, Anne's first night in the hotel. She takes a bath, and Roland, having knocked a hole in the wall between a linen closet and the single bathroom available to the help, spies on her. What Roland sees in a charming body "full of health and latent energy; the physical contrasts of girl and woman, still not quite resolved."
Very soon, Anne meets Hartmann, a well-to-do Jewish lawyer lately come from Paris with his wife to live in a grand estate just outside the village. Hartmann is almost immediately attracted to Anne, and he quickly becomes her protector. From there, he becomes sort of her sugar daddy, paying the rent on a private apartment that Anne could not afford on her miserly wages.
Hartmann pretends to himself that he is just being kind to a young woman. But he has lost desire for his wife. Even when she waits naked in bed for him, he is not aroused. When he lies to his wife in order to take Anne away for a weekend at a wealthy friend's estate, his passion gets the better of him. They make love and Anne is happier than she has ever been.
Predictable, the happiness can't last, and Hartmann breaks Anne's heart. She is taken advantage by another man, who gets her drunk first, and she runs away, to Paris, where, alone and penniless she applies for a job at a cafe. The proprietor's gaze, travelling up and down her frame, makes us wonder if Anne won't be victimized again very soon.
Like everything Faulks does, this book is wonderfully written; he really is a virtuoso of prose style. His characters, too, are very real and very engaging.

Five years since Claudia Lawrence disappeared from her home in York, her mother says she will never give up hope on finding her.
07:48, UK, Monday 17 March 2014
The mother of the missing York woman Claudia Lawrence has praised a new team of detectives investigating her daughter's disappearance and says she constantly thinks of the events she has missed.
Joan Lawrence, 70, says she is confident that the re-launched investigation which began last October is doing all it can to uncover why Claudia, 35, vanished without trace five years ago.
"I think if they don't [solve the case] they will have tried their utmost, and they're working so hard on it," she said.
"I don't think they'll easily give up."
Claudia was reported missing by her father Peter Lawrence, 67, on the morning of March 19, 2009 after she failed to turn up for her shift as a cook at the University of York the previous day.
Detectives believe she was murdered, but an extensive investigation drew a blank, with no trace of her being found and no arrests made.
Mrs Lawrence, who is divorced from Claudia's father, has shown Sky News childhood pictures of Claudia and her older sister Ali in the hope that they might prick the conscience of someone who knows what happened.
"She's missed so much," she said as she looked through photographs showing Claudia as a smiling, dark-haired girl growing up in Malton in North Yorkshire.
"Her best friend has got two children, she missed her wedding, her godmother's died, there's so many things happened in five years."
In a briefing to mark the fifth anniversary of the day she was reported missing, detectives are expected to reveal new information about her last-known movements and appeal for information about two vehicles seen in the area at the time.
Mrs Lawrence, who has never hidden her frustration with the first police investigation, says she hopes the new team led by Detective Superintendent Dai Malyn will be able to solve the mystery.
"One way or the another I have to find out, I can't go on and on and on," she said.
"I need to know - and I'll never ever give up hope."

A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect for all of Central Indiana until tomorrow.
Today, highs only reach the mid 20s with snow showers moving in. The best time for heavy accumulating snow will be after 12pm through tonight.
The metro area and our southern viewing area could see 2-4″ of snow. The further south you go the metro, the less snow is expected. North of the metro, some spots could pick up 4-6″ of snow. Click here to see what to expect in your town. The heavier snow is expected north because of lake effect snow showers that should set up this afternoon into tonight. Wind gusts up to 40 mph will create very hazardous travel conditions this afternoon and tonight. Blowing and drifting snow is likely. Wind chills will fall into the single digits this afternoon… tonight it will feel like -10 to 0!
Monday light snow showers will continue, with lake effect snow bands still likely to impact our northern counties. Highs will only reach the mid to upper teens, but wind chills will likely be in the subzero range. Again, wind gusts up to 40 mph will create blowing and drifting snow.
We're already tracking our next chance of snow for Thursday… check out the 7 day forecast!

Cleveland's own Michael Symon won the People's Choice Award for his mouth watering Fat Doug Burger at the 2014 Amstel Light Burger Bash. The Fat Doug is a burger with coleslaw, pastrami, stadium mustard and Castello Creamy Havarti cheese.
More than 25 chefs from across the country competed in this prestigious event, yet Chef Symon and the B Spot restaurant team captured an unprecedented fourth win for the People's Choice Award. The Burger Bash was held February 21 in Miami Beach as part of the Food Network South Beach Wine & Food Festival.
When asked about the win, here's what Chef Michael Symon had to say: "The B Spot team knew that competition would be fierce, so we went back to our roots with the "Fat Doug," topped it with delectable Castello Creamy Havarti cheese, and produced a truly delicious burger. Winning [the 2014 Amstel Light People's Choice Award] for the fourth time was a thrill and an honor!"
If you want to make the Fat Doug burger at home, you can find Michael's recipe here. Better yet, try one at any of his B Spot restaurants located throughout Cleveland. Find the location nearest you at bspotburgers.com

Are you a Stravasshole?
Submitted by Kris Thompson on
Stravasshole : an individual Strava-ing at the expense of common courtesy.
Strava is fun and I like to go "Strava-ing on the weekends". For those unfamilier with this term, Strava is a the ability to track your rides with GPS AND (most importantly) compete not in real-time with other riders of the road or trail for the fastest time. There are other products that provide rich GPS ride tracking like Ride with GPS and MapMyRide is getting into KOM's as well but Strava isn't about it's GPS technical excellence it's all about public display of winning. But like any disruptive technology that hits the market like Facebook, Twitter or camera phones, bad uses arise and with Strava these people are called Stravassholes.
Recently on MTBR Forums a Post about Stravassholes was made
So over the last year or so the rides tracked on Strava here in the FR have blown thru the roof, especially in the Golden area. the lookout road climb had always been a biggie but now there are tons of UH and DH segments on dirt all over Chimney, WR, NTM, STM, etc. Initially I was hooked, I was riding better when I knew I was on the clock. Since however, realized its clearly a double edge sword. Was ascending last week, some ***** comes whipping around, saw me and shouted "STRAVA! coming thru"...didn't bother to yield and blew by. not a huge deal, wide section of the trail, but got me wondering what the FR will be like when the entire FR is full of Stravons killling each other for the KOM. oh well.
- Choosing a Strava Segment due to favorable winds
- Stravaing while in a pack, no, this is a solo thing
- Descending in a bubble and yelling "Strava"
- Posting your Strava account link on your resume
- Add your ways in the comments below
Are we becoming Stravassholes with this new technology?
I posted this question to Facebook recently and got some interesting feedback, as one person said, Assholes are Assholes, Strava just gave them a platform to amplify it.
But I like Strava as it allows us to do something not so easily done before and to use it in innovative ways like create a race without ever having a race or easily see how my climbing or descending compares to my peers or just for myself and how I perform on my weekly personal hard ride day. With tools like Strava one could create a entire race series for a Summer and never have to get a permit, have insurance or get it sanctioned, how cool would that be?! It can also be very disheartening at times like when I blew a personal record on NCAR last week only to find out that put in me 39th place (I'm not even going to try to beat the downhill segment).
If you haven't tried Strava or any of the Strava like products (Ride with GPS, MapMyRide, or MyTracks (Google)) than be cautious, it can be addictive and if you have any bit of asshole in you then it will get amplified and your inner Stravasshole will come out.

I believe this person is saying he/she would like to perform a "roundhouse kick" upon said Stravaing individual. Thus displacing Stravaer from his/her bicycle, landing them upon the ground, perhaps in some amount of pain.

KOM vs. PR vs. Training
Submitted by Kublai (not verified) on
All sports have rules and officials and penalties because people want so desperately to win they don't play fair. The sport of Strava is no different unfortunately. Changing your data files is creepy, though, like a Masters rider taking EPO.
I'll never have a KOM on Strava (except for that mailbox ride mentioned earlier) but I will have personal best times on places I ride frequently, and maybe some top placings in my older age group. Most of the time I get my best times when I a) ride a segment properly warmed up but fresh, b) have the benefit of being in a pack and c) have a favorable wind. My PR to Jamestown a couple weeks ago had b and c going for me, does that make it not legit?
Maybe somebody needs to write up the "Official Strava Clean Conduct Rules" and we can all take personal blood oaths to follow them. New segments can be created that require following the rules to the tee. Everything is on an honor code. How long do you think that will last????

I am assuming this entire thread is a joke. If any of it were serious, I may have to give up riding my bike. If anyone shouts" "STRAVA! coming thru" to me on a ride I will try not to piss my spandex laughing- I will be much more concerned with not falling off my bike due to uncontrolled laughter than moving out of their way.

I'm not convinced Strava
Submitted by Anon (not verified) on
I'm not convinced Strava always works correctly. On a few occasions I've noticed that my times on segments were very different than others that road with me at the same pace. It could be GPS error or perhaps GPS settings, it could be Strava error.
I've been on Strava since they went live, the social side of it is very cool, but you notice flaws pretty quickly if you plan to use it to track training. The wattages are way off even if you are diligent with updating body, equipment and bike weights. The suffer score is very subjective and should be used with caution or not at all. There are many ways to manipulate KOMs, I won't go into them here because I don't trust people not to use them.

There was no denying in the two-episode arc of "Sons of Anarchy" that Tig had the hots for Venus Van Dam, a transvestite loosely related to the Byzlats through Nero. On Jan. 15 EnStarz shares that there could be a relationship brewing between the two.
While Walter Groggins can't confirm or deny whether he has been welcomed back for the final season of "Sons of Anarchy" he does say that both he and Kurt Sutter would love to see him back if they can find a working story line for his character. Venus and Tig in a relationship would be the most likely option as Van Dam's mother is now dead after Jax killed her for her child pornography ring she forced Venus into when he was younger in an attempt to keep him a boy.
Tig first med Venus in season 5 when she was brought in to help the club bribe a city official to get the permits they wanted. Tig had his fun with Venus, but she wasn't brought back until the six season when Venus needed the club's help dealing with her mother who was holding his son captive and completely against Van Dam's wishes.
Do you think Venus Van Dam and Tig Trager will hook up for season seven of "Sons of Anarchy"? Would you like to see Tig in a relationship in the final season? Share your thoughts in the comments.

Houston, Oct 28 (EFE).- Despite President Barack Obama's call on Congress to go forward with immigration reform, politicians in Texas say that Washington ignores the real problems facing border cities.
One of those difficulties is local governments' lack of funds for dealing with the needs of the undocumented, former Texas state lawmaker Aaron Peña told Efe.
"We have a large number of the undocumented and the poor who receive medical aid and whose costs absorb the local budget. These include the thousands of children in the country illegally but who nonetheless go to public schools," he said.
"Counties don't have the funds their hospitals need to care for all who go to their emergency rooms for treatment. That's where a crisis exists that has not been considered at a federal level, or, if it has been, no one talks about it," said Peña, who switched parties from Democratic to Republican in 2009.
Pete Gallegos, a Democrat who represents Texas' 23rd District in the U.S. Congress, agrees with Peña about seeking solutions for the problem of border security, but without forgetting the need to grow economically.
"Those of us who live near the border want to be safe and sleep peacefully like the rest of the country, and the only way out isn't a political solution, but rather a practical solution that maintains a balance: immigration reform that takes into account the economic realities of border towns," Gallego said.
Around 1.7 million undocumented immigrants live in Texas, according to a study by the Pew Research Center.

Increasingly, high-performance electronic devices, circuits, and systems require improved heat transfer characteristics. Such improvements are also vital for enabling increased efficiency of solar and thermal energy harvesting. This seminar will cover an application of carbon nanotube (CNT) arrays designed to achieve reduced thermal contact resistance in electronic packages and energy systems. Methods of controlling and optimizing the synthesis of the arrays by plasmaenhanced chemical vapor deposition will be discussed. In the area of heat conduction, reduction of thermal contact resistance at solid-solid interfaces enables reduced temperature drop between the solids and larger allowable temperature differences between the convective surfaces and cooling media. Experimental results, facilitated by a customized photoacoustic metrology technique, demonstrate that dry CNT interfaces can achieve comparable thermal performance to a soldered joint with a small bond line thickness. Possible mechanisms and models to explain experimental results will be discussed, as will opportunities for further research.

Two workers hired to clean out a Florida rental home after the last tenants vacated the premises found what they thought was a mannequin-like mummy hanging in the garage. They cut it down and dropped it off with the rest of the debris at the county dump, but they would soon find out this was a mummified body of a human being, according to NewsOxy on July 20.
The mummified dummy, or at least that's what the dump workers thought it was, stayed on top of a pile of junk until someone took a look at it and smelled a foul odor. That is when the police were called and determined that this mummy was not a decoration for Halloween, but a real human mummified body.
The Spreadit suggests today that the wrapped mummified body looked like something creepy you would hang up for Halloween or something you would use to play a prank on a friend. Not on soul thought for one minute that this was a dead man. So who was this guy?
He was the former tenant of the house that the workers were cleaning out and he committed suicide by hanging himself in the garage. Upon further inspection of the house, a suicide note left by the man was found tacked up to the garage wall, near where he hung himself.
The man apparently became very despondent when his girlfriend and her kids moved out of the home and he saw no other way to end his sadness and pain. The police had an investigation going around the discovery of this body before it was deemed a suicide.
They didn't believe the dump workers at first who found the dead body thinking it was a mannequin. Police suspected they were covering up a crime. The men cleaning out the house who originally found the dead man were also questioned.
Police came to the realization that the men would not put a body on top of garbage in a pickup truck in clear sight of anyone who happened by if it were a crime. They also said that the men would not have taken a dead body for a ride through town in full sight of anyone they passed on their way to the dump if they were trying to cover up a crime.
It was the suicide note that was finally discovered that cleared up any suspicions around the people who happened upon the dead body. To add insult to injury the landlords who owned the home being cleaned out also saw the dead body the day before the workers got there.
They had been at the house checking on things and when they saw it hanging there, they too thought it was a prank mannequin mummy. They thought it might have been left for them in retaliation for the eviction that had been underway to take back possession of their property.
The body was identified as 33-year-old Jeremy Witfoth, who was the last tenant of the house. Police believed he had hung himself within the last several weeks. No charges were filed in this case, but an autopsy is being done to determine Witfoth's cause of death.

It is better to have your gun and not need it, than to need it and not have it!
You cannot choose the conditions for a gunfight, so train in all conditions!
I have been useing my MIC for about a week now and it is a very nice way to carry.
Have Fun and Shoot Straight !!
Cool beans.
Did you have to adjust/alter the length of the cord in anyway to achieve an optimum weapon height..?
What we've got here is failure to communicate.
I'm NOT a fan of appendix carry, just because I find it uncomfortable while sitting down. Though, I'd be lying if I said I never thought about Mexican carry. The main thing that bothers me is the uncovered trigger. This solves the problem. My other concern was that fact that the gun would no be "secrure". Clipdraw has an answer for that. I just don't like the big clip hanging off the side. A friend has a clipdraw on his G36. It does nothing for ergonomics.
Certainly this is nice because it takes away the bulk, and it's simple and easy to put on unlike some holsters.
The next best solution I have found for comfortable, near holsterless IWB carry is my Blade-Tech. It carries deep and is made of VERY thin Kydex. It almost feels the same without a holster at all.
it seems like the gun would move around too much. besides, i refuse to have a loaded firearm pointed at my "fun zone"
If you carry a gun, people will call you paranoid. That's ridiculous. If I have a gun, what in the hell do I have to be paranoid for?
I believe Raven did it first
I prefer a standard holster myself. Something like a summer special or a CTAC.
I have seen something similar awhile back that was marketed for pocket carry. I think it might be good for use with a holster Tee(5.11) on the rare occasion that I need to conceal in a dress shirt and pants. I have always been just a little leary of having an unprotected trigger in a soft cloth holster. I may be making something for use on my P32 and P3AT when clip carried.
The best things in life are not free.
They are paid for with the blood of brave men and women!

Well I dont carry in the appendix...because I am too fat. I carry at the 3:00 and the gun is very comfortable and sturdy there. The holster is not a conventional holster for EDC for me, just an occasional use.

Well, instead of carrying a neck knife, you could carry a neck gun!
I could see a couple uses for this other than for carry though.
ALWAYS carry! - NEVER tell!

I am sure there is a place for this. It just is not for me.
Oh boy and here we go.....
First and foremost, in the vids we are not teaching firearms safety. Yes I know~ALWAYS practice firearms safety and I do agree, there are some needless safety violations in the videos, we will pay more attention to that in all future vids. To the positive side of things what we are demonstrating is that with many of todays glock owners, there is this subculture of tigger jobs resulting in some 2lb trigger pulls. We don't like this, but it is a fact of life. One doesn't have to look very far for a news story, a video or images on the web of AD's with glocks. The video shows just how easy it is to harm yourself with the Glock pistol, and the MIC is just ONE of many ways to help prevent that from happening, while also helping to secure a weapon that thousands of people ALREADY carry in this postion with no protection. The MIC, as we have stated for the last couple of years is not the end all holster for every application. What it is however, is a way to carry your glock in VERY deep concealment, while retaining ease of access AND some loss prevention of the firearm.
Some like it, some don't as with all carry systems and hoslters. What I can say, is there are too many LE agencies to list, that have approved the MIC for on-duty carry for UC guys, and off duty agency wide. Agencies in the US and Canada, federal agencies, Swat Teams, and a few other Alphabet agencies have given this product there whole hearted seal of approval.
I designed the hoslter, and I too carry other types of holsters from time to time, depending on my situation, where I'm going, how I am dressing and so forth. When I, and many other people who have carried a firearm for a living, and have had to and continue to deal with some of the worst scum of the earth, in some of the most dangerious places in this country want to make a glock VANISH...The MIC becomes a very good option to have on hand.

Seat released more info and a large photo gallery of the Mii, the Spanish twin sister of Volkswagen Up! and Skoda Citigo that is due to enter the market in Spring 2012 in both 3 and 5 door configurations. Initially, the only engine option available will be a 3-cylinder 1.0 petrol unit -available in power steps of 59 and 74 hp - coupled with a 5-speed manual gearbox and boasting CO2 emissions of 97 g/km. A sequential automatic transmission will also be made available at a later time, while a 1.0 methane engine delivering 68 hp with CO2 emission level of only 86 g/km is also waiting in the wings.
Seat Mii measures 3.56 meters in length, 1.64 meters in width, 1.48 meters in height and weights only 854 kg, thanks in no small part to the new super light 3-cylinder engine (69 kg). Other numbers include a 35 litre capacity fuel tank, 251 litres of load capacity in the luggage compartment (which can go up to 951 litres when the rear seats are folded) and a drag coefficient of 0,32. The Mii also comes with innovative technologies such as City Safety Assist (a laser sensor acting on the brakes in case of emergency), SEAT Portable System (a removable 5″ multi-media device integrated into the car's audio system that can be used as sat-nav, hands-free phone and on-board computer) and also more 'normal' features like ABS, adjustable steering column and side airbags.
As for the interior, the perfect ergonomics of the instruments and the control elements fit beautifully with the premium surfaces that can be individualized using colored trim from the various equipment lines. Seat Mii uses brand new seats as well, with integrated head restraints. The model will come with one of two equipment packages, Chic and Sport, each one offering special color and trim elements for interior individualization. To cut it short, Seat Mii is the perfect car for modern-day urban use. Click on the 'Continue reading' link below the thumbnails to check out its full technical specs.

The audio, overall, comes in synced (time) fine; however, there is clipping at the higher frequencies that is really annoying. The only way to describe it is that you lose anything above 15hz or so. So every "S" is flat and you get the digitized effect on most words, etc. I've listened to the source tape via the camera in playback to my headphones and do notice that occasionally the camera picked up a bit too much audio, like it is maxed on the level and it hit the red and then digitized. However, that is seldom when compared to the overall level on the iMovie version where the majority of "S"s are cut. Almost like sibilance effect on the digital side. There are no apparent audio import controls to bring the level down, when importing, etc. What are my options to try to improve my import qualities? I've considered upgrading to iMovie '11, but not sure it gives me more import power. Any other tools to import and assess what is going on? Thoughts?

Update: June 10, 2014.
The two people killed in Monday night's plane crash in Daytona Beach were tentatively identified Tuesday. Volusia County Sheriff's Office spokesperson Brandon Haught says the two were preliminarily identified as 22-year old flight instructor Marlene Mork, and 22-year old student Gabriel De Souza Marinho Falcao. Their Cessna 172 crashed near the southeast corner of Daytona Beach International Airport, just west of Clyde Morris Boulevard and Bellevue Avenue Extension, shortly before 10 Monday night. The Volusia County Sheriff's Office Major Case Unit is investigating the case, and the National Transportation Safety Board confirmed in a tweet on its web site Tuesday that it is investigating the incident as well.
Original article:
A small plane crashed south of Daytona Beach International Airport shortly before 10 Monday night, and WFTV-TV, Channel 9 is reporting that an instructor and student were killed in the crash. Volusia County Sheriff's Department spokesperson Gary Davidson said the plane, a Cessna 172 registered to Phoenix East Aviation, crashed shortly after takeoff. He added that there were no survivors of the crash and that authorities believe there were two occupants of the plane.
This Examiner viewed the crash site from Clyde Morris Boulevard and Bellevue Avenue Extension Monday night, where Daytona Beach Police were maintaining the scene. It appeared that the plane was small, it was positioned leaning slightly to the right on its underside, and suffered heavy damage to the front of the aircraft. The crash site is just southeast of one of the short runways at Daytona Beach International Airport. Volusia County Fire Services airport units initially responded to the scene, and unofficial reports said they encountered heavy smoke and fire at the site and that the aircraft was fully involved.
Volusia County Fire Services, Daytona Beach Fire Department units and EVAC ambulances were working the site Monday night as Daytona Beach Police secured the area and directed traffic around Clyde Morris Boulevard and Bellevue Avenue Extension. Lt. Larry Stoney with the Daytona Beach Fire Department said initial information would be coming from the Daytona Beach Police Department, and Daytona Beach Police Chief Michael Chitwood was one of the officials this Examiner observed at the crash site. Daytona Beach International Airport Operations may also issue further details. It is also common for the National Transportation Safety Board to conduct investigations of aircraft accidents.

College Hockey:Hobey Semifinalists Will be Pared to 3 Under New Format
MINNEAPOLIS — The Hobey Baker Memorial Award Foundation has announced a change in the format of naming the winner of the Hobey Baker Award.
Beginning this year season, the top 10 finalists will be pared to three semifinalists, all of whom will attend the award announcement, which traditionally takes place on the off day between the national semifinals and finals of Frozen Four weekend.
Division I college hockey coaches and a vote by hockey fans (vote-for-hobey.com) will determine the top 10 finalists. Those candidates will be announced March 14 from the WCHA Final Five tournament. Then, the Hobey Baker Selection Committee and fan vote will determine the "Hobey hat trick," as the three semifinalists are announced March 26.
The 2002 Hobey Baker Award winner will be announced from this group of three during the live TV broadcast of the award announcement from the NCAA Frozen Four on Friday, April 5 in St. Paul, Minn.

With so many summer tentpoles coming literally every single weekend, some are bound to fall between the cracks. Not every film is going to get the push of a Guardians of the Galaxy or Transformers: Age of Extinction, others like Brett Ratner's Hercules need to work to get a little attention. And so we have a brand new trailer that puts its musclebound star Dwayne Johnson right in the spotlight.
Johnson's all oiled up, bearded, and wearing a lion pelt as the mythological hero, only this story isn't based on the Greek stories many are familiar with. It's actually based on the Radical Comics series, The Thracian Wars, in which Hercules and his band of fellow mercenaries train a king's army for war against an evil warlord.
Also starring Rufus Sewell and Ian McShane, Hercules completes his labors on July 25th.

Cave of Forgotten Dreams
by Richard von Busack
DESPITE the deaths of Welles and Heston, cinematic narration muddles along somehow. We do have the molasses-drenched tonsils of Morgan Freeman, still the voice of Jehovah's own unequivocation, and we have F. Murray Abraham finding the slightly droll side of jungle animals disemboweling each other on Nature documentaries.
But there's nothing that says angst like director Werner Herzog describing what we're seeing. In his 3-D film Cave of Forgotten Dreams, he's busy: the unnerved, emotionally affecting tones (you can imagine him saying "And I only am escaped alone to tell thee") might be the words of the last man on Earth.
Herzog goes underground in Cave of Forgotten Dreams to Chauvet-Pont D'Arc in the Ardeche region of France. This trove contains the oldest known prehistoric art, 30,000 years old, sealed off from the world for most of that time. The caves were discovered in 1994, and since then only a few visitors have been allowed inside on a restricted path.
Due to government restrictions, Herzog faced some serious creative challenges; the officials limited his time and access in hopes of protecting these cave paintings from the kind of degradation that's occurred at Altamira.
Herzog wasn't allowed to use anything but cold electronic lights and small cameras. He filmed in 3-D to get the contours of the surfaces where the drawings are sealed under millennia of crystal deposits. These are pictures of animals, most of them extinct, executed over the course of 5,000 years, before a landslide locked them away.
The 3-D depth keeps claustrophobia from setting in. The strikingly expressive images have the timelessness of Aboriginal cave paintings in Australia. Unlike that traditional art, however, these works must be considered completely outside of art history.
Hidden away from the eyes of men for so long, they've had no influence on subsequent artists since the Paleolithic culture. They are perplexingly beautiful. The overlapping profiles of a quartet of horses seem like the birth of perspective in art, though Herzog himself forecasts cinema in the blur of their legs.
There's nothing sticky about Herzog's narration, and yet one feels implicit tragedy and mania; listening to him is like watching Peter Lorre on the verge of flipping out. To some, this style borders on parody. I personally find it affecting, deeply moving and seething with drama. That drama was there when he looked at the bears in Grizzly Man: "I discover no kinship, no understanding, no mercy." (He was describing an obsessed filmmaker's fate, he who knew well how fatal delusion can be.)
In Cave of Forgotten Dreams, Herzog looks backward into human history, to art made at the very dawn of consciousness. And then he adds what seems like an inane coda. There's apparently a greenhouse in the town of Pierrelatte some 20 miles from the caves, heated with water runoff from the massive Tricastin nuclear power plant. Crocodiles live in the greenhouse, tons of them. Herzog watches them paddle. "Man, do they thrive," he says with a dryness that sounds—after an hour or more of dazzled reverence to ancient art—absolutely uproarious.
These weird crocs are germane to a movie that is about mankind on the verge of discovering art. Aren't these basking creatures symbols of the world after man is gone? Who knows what they'll eat, but they'll have warm water for 20,000 years.
When not urging us to admire—with an enthusiasm that is going to seem like too much information to some—Herzog visits with experts on the caves. We meet a mustached academic, horsing around in the nearby vineyards with that spear-throwing device known as an atlatl in the Americas.
There is also a semi-interesting passage on the bulging, pocket-size prehistoric limestone Venuses, younger than the Chauvet art by some 6 to 8,000 years. (Herzog being Herzog, he draws a link between the Venus of Willendorf and the appeal of Baywatch.) He is a digresser, in love with the discursive, very playful, as in the seemingly impossible opening shot, which is ultimately revealed as the work of a toy. The material Herzog has here probably never should have been stretched to feature length, but he illuminates these caves with the light of his own pensiveness.

|Roy Rana Bio
Courtesy: Sports Information
Release: 05/24/2010
Roy Rana became the 11th head coach in Ryerson men's basketball history when he was hired on August 14, 2009.
Over the first six years as head coach, Rana has increased Ryerson's win total each year. At the end of the 2014-15 season, Rana stands with 82 career regular season victories with the Rams and in his CIS career.
In 2013-14, Rana and the Rams started the season as the No. 4 ranking in the CIS and stayed there for portions of the season. Ryerson finished the regular season with a 16-6 record and were eliminated in the OUA East quarterfinals.
In 2012-13 the Rams finished tied for second in the east after a 15-5 season which saw Ryerson return to the national rankings for the first time since November, 2000. The Rams peaked at No. 6 in the country.
In just his third season with Ryerson, Rana led the Rams to their first CIS Final 8 appearance since 1998-99. Rana guided the squad to a 13-9 record and second-place in the OUA East for the first time in over a decade. After an improbable upset of then No. 2 nationally-ranked Lakehead in the OUA semifinals and a conference silver medal, Rana coached Ryerson to its first-ever win at a national championship in Halifax, where the Rams went 1-2 including an 84-80 win over Concordia.
In 2010-11, Rana led Ryerson to the OUA quarter-finals after finishing the regular season in fourth place in the OUA East division. The Rams recorded their first playoff victory since 2003 with a win over the visiting York Lions in the opening round.
In the spring of 2010, Rana introduced his first recruiting class, which was regarded by many as arguably the best in the country. The group included first team OUA East all-star and East all-rookie team selection Jahmal Jones as well as East all-rookie team selection Jordon Gauthier.
Rana joined Ryerson after nine years at Eastern Commerce Collegiate Institute in Toronto, where he led the Saints to four OFSAA provincial championships. He also has extensive experience coaching with Canada Basketball.
In the summer of 2014 Rana guided the Canadian men's junior national team to a silver medal at the FIBA Americas U18 Championship. Just a few weeks later, it was announced that Rana would be joining the National Basketball Association's (NBA) Utah Jazz as a guest coach during the NBA Summer League.
In June of 2012, Rana added his fourth bronze medal in as many international head coaching appearances by leading the Canadian Junior Men's National Team (JMNT) to third place at the FIBA Americas U18 Championships for Men. With their placement, the JMNT also clinched a berth in the 2013 FIBA U19 World Championship.
Rana then guided Team Canada to a silver medal at the 2012 Nike Global Challenge, which took place from July 13-15. He also helped the World Select Team snap their two-year drought at the 2012 Nike Hoop Summit, guiding the global juniors to an 84-75 triumph against the USA Basketball Men's Junior National Select Team.
Rana was the Head Coach of the Canadian Cadets National Team in 2009 and 2010. In the summer of 2009, the CMNT qualified for its first ever World Championship. In 2010, Rana coached the squad to an impressive bronze medal finish at World's. He also served as an assistant coach with the 2009 Senior Men's National Team which also qualified for the World Championship.
He then went on to once again lead the Canadian Cadets National Team at the FIBA Americas U16 Championship, where they captured a bronze medal and clinched a berth in the 2012 U17 World Championship.
In addition to his coaching success at the international level, Rana has experienced a historic career as one of Canada's most successful high school coaches. In his nine year tenure as the Head Coach and program director at Eastern Commerce Collegiate Institute, the program set numerous records. Eastern Commerce became the first team in history to win four consecutive Ontario Championships.
With Rana at the helm at Eastern, the team finished six of his nine seasons as the No. 1 ranked team in Canada. During that time period, Eastern's record was 256-39 with an incredible .867 winning percentage.
As the Head Coach of Ontario's U17 Provincial Team, Rana led the team to the 2004 and 2005 National Championship, as well as Ontario's first ever Canada Summer Games Gold Medal in 2005.
Rana has received many Coaching accolades including the 2003, 2004, 2006 Canadian High School Coach of the Year and the 2003 Toronto Sun High School Coach of the Year. He was also awarded the 2009 High School Coach of the Year in Canada Award.
· Junior Men's National Team assistant coach, 2006, helped Canada qualify for first Junior World Championship
