A welcome spot for casual downtown dining, XO Asian Cuisine offers an eclectic menu of Chinese, Japanese and Thai dishes ranging from curries to noodles, fried rice and stir-fries.
For my husband, Hoyt, and me, it's one of our favorite stops for takeout, especially when we're hungry for XO's luscious Panang curry ($13), which easily feeds two.
The restaurant -- with the name pronounced as the two letters, "X, O" -- also is comfortable and pleasant for dining in, which is what we decided to do on a recent Sunday evening. Forgoing the coziness of a fire at home, we warmed up with tiny cups of hot sake as we perused the tantalizing fare on the menu.
Starting with appetizers, we ordered Thai vegetable spring rolls (two for $2), golden calamari ($6) and edamame ($4). Other options include fried tofu with peanut sauce ($4), crab rangoon ($4), fried dumplings ($5) and summer rolls (2 for $5).
Crisp and wonderful, the spring rolls were perfectly deep-fried with a nice balance of flavors and textures. They came with a light, sweet sauce for dipping. The calamari also was excellent -- thick, tender rings coated with a light tempura batter and deep fried until golden. Served on a bed of wild greens, the appetizer had a piquant, subtly sweet dressing laced with fresh lime. For those new to edamame, which is the Japanese name for baby soybeans, it may seem like a lot of effort to pop open the stir-fried, tender/crisp pods to pluck out the tasty beans within, but we relished every bite. Another point to mention is that even though we shared three appetizers, none was heavy, greasy or overly filling.

I love Southeast Asian curry, so I opted to try the Massaman curry with shrimp ($12). Hoyt chose the Mongolian beef ($11), one of XO's signature dishes. The menu also features a variety of soups, salads and vegetable dishes. Signature entrees include fried whole red snapper ($19), General Tso's chicken ($10) and Szechuan beef ($10).
My fresh, colorful and delicious dish was abundant with zucchini, red bell pepper, mushrooms and nice-sized, tender, pink shrimp infused in a curry-laced sauce. Served with hot white rice, it had just enough zip to warm the mouth, but the heat didn't overpower any of the dish's subtler elements.
Hoyt's Mongolian beef also was marvelous. A mixture of thin-sliced flank steak, sauteed onions and scallions in a savory brown sauce, it was served on a bed of crispy rice noodles. With a hint of heat, the dish had a lovely mingling of flavors, with a touch of delicate sweetness.
We passed on dessert, but XO offers cheesecake ($3) and several flavors of ice cream ($3).
On all levels, the quality, freshness and variety of the restaurant's excellent Asian cuisine continues to please.

Although he will be leaving the area to attend the University of Pittsburgh in the fall, a recent Montoursville Area High School graduate is leaving a part of himself at home as he finished a large mural on a Broad Street building.
Nick Ripley, who graduated in June, has been working with Chloe Gillum, who also graduated in June from Montoursville, for about a year to get the mural finished on Smith's Jewelry, located at 342 Broad St.
"It was interesting because nothing like this has been done in this town but the community's been very supportive," Ripley said of the project.

Shown is Nick Ripley standing in front of a mural has been working on since March. The mural is on a Broad Street building in Montoursville.
The mural was Ripley's brain child for his senior project, but when he needed help, he recruited Gillum to join him. After working on getting the project approved by both the school district and building owner in the fall of 2012, the two began painting in late February.
As Ripley explained, they had to work around the weather.
"We started painting in the snow. It was fun to work with the Pennsylvania weather," he said.
The idea to paint a large mural came from a trip Ripley took. He's been wanting to do one ever since.
"I must have been on a road trip and saw one," Ripley remembered. "And I didn't let go of the idea."
Art has been a part of Ripley's life since he was a little kid. He said he enjoys expressing himself and has done so with his most recent creation on the side of a brick building.
"I love expressing myself and especially important ideas," he said. "With this one, I kind of wanted to express ambition and determination."
The mural shows a mountain scene, with a climber in one corner and hot air balloons floating over top of them.
Planning the large mural wasn't easy though, as Ripley needed to create it in pieces.
"You have to look at it in little chunks. It's a little intimidating," he said.
As Ripley described the area as "focused on athletics," he hopes that the mural will help others discover and explore art. He even dedicated the mural with the inscription "For young artists" on the lower corner of it.
"I hope more kids will see it and broaden their horizons creatively," he said.
As they're working, Ripley said people will stop and inquire to what they're creating. He added that it makes him feel good when parents bring their children down to watch.
And as he prepares to leave the area to continue his education, Ripley takes pleasure in the fact that his artwork will remain in his hometown for a long time.
"I love that it will out live me," Ripley said. "And I love that I was able to add something to the town."

In the middle of the 1950's, a turning point in political and social norms can be witnessed in Soviet consumption trends. The conference will focus on the role of these trends in promoting tensions between individually made clothes (at home or by a tailor) on the one hand, and the State propagated dress code on the other, as well as on the resulting impact on the relationship between the individual and the State.
The central question is how the form, sense and consumption of everyday items transform under changing political, economic and social conditions. The starting point is to investigate the history of material culture in the Soviet Union and explore its effects on social and cultural life. There will be a focus also on the duality of clothing fashion in the Soviet Union with the dichotomy between individual clothing production and the State propagated dress code being explored.
On the basis of this exploration, we anticipate speakers from academic fields including but not limited to the following items: fashion and clothing, women's and gender studies, political science, history, and economics. We will attempt to address the following questions: What specific features are recognizable in Soviet clothing fashion between the post-war period and perestroika? What, if any, "western" trends can be observed? What were the driving forces (i.e.: political, economic, ideological or cultural circumstances) that contributed to these developments? What was the effect of individual production of clothing on the identity of the Soviet woman? What role did this play in the transformation of social norms?
We are interested in all contributions which will help address these diverse questions. We welcome studies based on literature, film, photography, periodicals, visual arts, and other sources.
The organizers warmly invite researchers to participate in the conference and ask for a speaking title, abstract (approx. 500 words), and a brief personal summary by the 28th of February, 2013. Please submit the above to: firstname.lastname@example.com.
The estimated speaking time is 30 minutes, followed by a 15 minute open discussion period. The conference will take place at the University of Salzburg, Austria. Travel expenses, overnight costs and expenses will be partially compensated. The publication of a conference volume is planned.

At the bloody, pulsating heart of most horror films is sex. Many gorefests revel in nudity and in killing couples mid or post-coitus, and it's such a trademark of the genre that it became one of the infamous "Rules for Surviving a Horror Movie." If you strap on a chastity belt and keep on your sweater set like Jamie Lee Curtis, chances are good that you'll dodge your own mortality. (The deeper implications of that are hotly debated even today, but that's a topic for another time and the Horror Squad.)
But horror has a sexy cousin in the psychological / psychosexual thriller. This genre revels in punishing people who get caught between the sheets just as much as true horror does, but it's like a set of Agent Provocateur lingerie versus Frederick's of Hollywood. They're doing the same thing to your senses, but one does it with a veneer of class and sophistication, and appeals to people who wouldn't be caught dead with a slasher. With that spirit, I've compiled a little list of movies to augment your usual October diet. You might be able to get one or more of them past a girlfriend or boyfriend who loathes horror -- but don't be surprised if both of you feel like wearing a suit of armor to bed just in case.
1. Dressed to Kill
One of Brian DePalma's many Hitchcock homages, Dressed to Kill manages to be both campy and terrifying as it veers from the sexual frustration of Kate Miller (Angie Dickinson), to a murder mystery, to a full blown slasher. Miller's museum seduction remains a thing of creepy beauty, but try not to laugh as the hammer of Puritanism comes down on her not once but twice. If that's not bad enough, cringe along with her son as he finds out just what his mom was up to at the art museum. Enjoy the predictable ride in all its sleazy glory, and then see if you can watch the final scenes without all the lights on.
2. Fatal Attraction
This one needs no introduction and no description. Dan might as well be in Camp Crystal Lake for all the havoc, knives, and bunnies that fall victim to Alex's wrath. While this has largely been touted as a horror film for men, I think it's equally terrifying for women. It's bad enough that your husband is tempted to have sex and salsa dance while you're away, but then you wind up physically battered, your daughter is kidnapped, and the household pet is boiled. Oh, and drowning the witch destroys the ceiling of your brand new house! I couldn't file divorce papers fast enough.
3. The Beguiled
Now this is the movie that'll scare the pants back on the men. Wounded Union soldier John McBurney (Clint Eastwood) thinks he's died and gone to heaven when he winds up in an all-girls Southern boarding school. He thinks his only problem is deciding which of the girls to sleep with first. But one randy Yankee is no match for a bunch of wartrapped Southern women, and McBurney spends the rest of the movie wishing he'd left his pants buttoned. This might be a good one to watch before going out to Halloween parties filled with Sexy Everythings.
4. A Perfect Murder
This Hitchcock remake went the extra mile in punishing a woman's wandering eye -- it put her between a psychotic husband and a sleazy, con-artist boyfriend. Apparently, the lesson here is to beware of a man with a sturdy cleft chin because it's just a facade for a man who wants to kill you -- and to just get a divorce, change your name, and flee to Spain if you find your husband to be a tad controlling.
5. Cruising
There's so many contenders for #5 that I'm going to stoop to the obvious and pick the one Mondo Tees recently revived Internet interest in with their fabulous poster. I'm not sure what's scarier -- how Hollywood perceived the gay community, that awful little song the killer sings, or Al Pacino's hair. Whether your gay, straight, or bisexual, it's guaranteed to keep you out of dark clubs, away from kinky sex, and safe in front of your television with some cocoa watching TCM. Alone.
Now it's your turn to list some of the ones I didn't. Give us some October movies that'll send you scurrying for the unsexy pajamas while double checking the locks on the doors.

WARREN - Ohio's top lawman already declared heroin addiction an epidemic, a problem that is reaching into all counties and the rural communities.
At speaking engagements across the state - including one on Feb. 27 in Warren - Attorney General Mike DeWine is proposing a grassroots fight against the drug that last week he said was responsible for more than 900 deaths in Ohio last year. There were only slightly more than 300 heroin-related deaths in 2010, he said.
''Not only is it in every economic group and every age group, heroin is a drug of affordability,'' DeWine said. ''It's cheap. It has never been this cheap before.''
And the rise in drug-related deaths also is reflected in drug cases prosecuted in court.
In Trumbull County in 2013, the total number of criminal cases reached 950 - a level that prosecutors hadn't seen since 2005.
Of the 950 various cases, 352 of the cases were for possession or trafficking in drugs. That translates to 37 percent of the total criminal docket.
''That's 37 percent in terms of indictments on drug charges. It doesn't take into account the other crimes that are drug-related,'' said Maj. Tom Stewart of the Trumbull County Sheriff's Office.
Stewart pointed that many shoplifting, scrap thefts, robberies and even murders can be attributed to drugs and mostly heroin. ''It's phenomenal,'' he said.
Gina Buccino Arnaut, an assistant county prosecutor who handles a lot of drug cases in court, said, ''I'm seeing cases now where addicts are cooking meth to sell in order to buy their heroin.''
Arnaut still has about a half dozen cases remaining on the docket from a massive drug sweep about a year ago that followed a yearlong investigation that drug agents dubbed ''Little D-town'' because of the Detroit influence that has surrounded Trumbull County in recent years.
Arnaut saw caseload increase by about 40 with those indicted on state charges after the sweep in mid-April. The arrests - many of them connected to a Youngstown Road S.E. storefront that agents operated and where they traded goods for drugs and guns - caused the total number of criminal cases to creep upward. Another 60 defendants or so in the sweep were charged into federal court.
Arnaut's boss, Trumbull Prosecutor Dennis Watkins, said the large percentage of drug cases clogging the criminal docket has continued during the first quarter of 2014.
''And the numbers sometimes don't show the seriousness of the crimes. The criminal justice system is overwhelmed,'' Watkins said.
Watkins said it's always been his position that nonviolent first-time drug offenders can be dealt with through rehabilitation and places like drug courts that have sprung up over the years.
''But the repeat violent offenders linked to drugs or gang activities can't continue to create havoc,'' Watkins said. ''That's nonsense!
''Serious crimes should mean serious prison time,'' he said.

Manchester City's summer transfer period is suddenly coming down to their pursuit of one player.
If City acquire Porto defender Eliaquim Mangala, the Sky Blues' summer dealings will be viewed as sensible and surgical.
If City miss on Mangala, though, there are sure to be questions about whether City's Financial Fair Play sanctions bit them even more quickly than anyone thought possible.
Finishing the summer with Bacary Sagna, Fernando and Bruno Zuculini as their only acquisitions would feel suspiciously like the ill-fated summer of 2012 to City supporters.
Another symptom of all this is the way so many of the following slides focus on players possibly leaving City rather than potentially coming in.

STATEMENT: CAP's Korb on Pentagon Decision to Extend Benefits to Same-Sex Military Spouses
Contact: Christina DiPasquale
Phone: 202.481.8181
Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
Washington, D.C. — Today the Pentagon announced 20 new benefits to be available to gay service members and their families. In response the Center for American Progress released the following statement from Senior Fellow Lawrence J. Korb:
The Pentagon's announcement today that it would extend a number of benefits to same-sex military spouses sends a clear message to the country, to Congress, and to the Supreme Court: There is no room for discrimination in our armed forces. Military officials have stated time and time again that inequality harms our troops and military readiness, and today the Pentagon has demonstrated its firm belief in this principle. As long as the Defense of Marriage Act remains law, however, the military will have no choice but to deny full benefits to same-sex military spouses, essentially treating these families as second class and thereby compromising military readiness.

Great motorcycle bag
By Priss
from North Carolina
The perfect bag for any use. It works great to carry a dry shirt, cap, wallet and a few items to freshen up when on a motorcycle ride (especially if caught in rain). It is also a great shopping bag for going to craft fairs and having a what you need and free hands to be able to look and shop. Great size.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Like many kids, Isaiah Segura felt shy when he arrived at summer camp for the first time. He had never been away from home. Plus, Isaiah, 5, is generally timid about meeting new people, as this often means explaining about the scars that cover half of his body, leathery remnants of the horrific day when he was 2 and his house burned down.
But Isaiah soon relaxed. "Me and Braxton started talking to him," says Nick McDonald, 9. Without knowing his bunkmates' stories, Isaiah could tell at a glance that they too had seen terrible days. For once no explanations were necessary. They wouldn't be stared at, and they wouldn't be teased. "I've moved five times because of mean people that my mom didn't want me to be around," says Braxton Czarnecki, 9. Isaiah's mom, Irma, says that sometimes other kids are afraid of him. But by day two at camp, the boys are running as a pack.
For a week each June, young burn survivors ages 6 to 18 enjoy swimming, boating, horseback riding, zip-lining and fishing at Camp I-Thonka-Chi (Choctaw for "place that makes one fearless") in Meridian, Texas. Donna Crump, the physical therapy manager at Dallas's Parkland Hospital, founded the program—which is free, run with the help of volunteers and another camp, which also provides the grounds—in 1992 to serve patients of the pediatric burn ward. "You see so much pain that you want to do more," says Crump, 50. Even when kids are able to leave the hospital, "you know what's ahead of them in a society where so much is placed on looks." Here, they can let all of that go. "We're not any different," a teen once joked to Crump. "We've just got a little texture."
By his last evening, Isaiah has found his place, doing handstands on the dance floor for all to see. Counselor Courtney Bennett, 19, who was burned in a house fire two years ago, looks on. "I just idolize them," she says of the campers. "They've helped me get out of that whole 'I'm not pretty' thing. The people here? They're gorgeous."

The Great Commercial Real-Estate Crash: Mark Your Calendars
Are you ready for more apocalyptic predictions? How about this one:
"The next tsunami to hit will be the Commercial Real Estate market."
Thomas Barrack, the founder of Colony Capital, wrote this prediction in his real estate private-equity firm's October investor letter, which Deal Journal has reviewed. It is scary stuff. Commercial real estate has been among the last dominoes left to fall in the credit markets, and it has avoided much of the disaster raging through subprime residential loans. (Colony's holdings include the Meadowlands Xanadu center in New Jersey and the Great Mall of the Bay Area.)
Commercial real-estate securities have been Wall Street's last claim to dignity. You might remember that Lehman Brothers Holdings in the final days pinned its hopes for survival on the values of its commercial real-estate portfolio. In planning to spin off $25 billion to $30 billion of real-estate securities into REI Global, Lehman expected to mark the average price of the assets at 85 cents on the dollar–a pretty generous price in a world in which residential real estate securities weren't selling at all and leveraged loans were selling at around 71 cents on the dollar.
Barrack predicts that commercial real estate is due for its turn. It wouldn't be a tremendous surprise; many believed the subprime crisis would soon lead the market wolves to commercial loans.(And read this Heard on the Street column from colleague Lingling Wei).
A commercial real-estate crash would be devastating to the economy. Commercial real-estate loans, including commercial mortgage-backed securities and collateralized debt obligations, total $3.7 trillion. It is only a slow burn right now: Many of those CMBS and CDOs mature in 2010 and 2011, leading Barrack to predict a "refinancing crisis" in the next three years–and with buyers drying up, egress will be difficult. "The overriding problem for all refinancing issues is that sale is not a viable option. Transaction volume is dwindling; to date, retail center sales volumes are down 85%, office is down 75% and hotels 95%," Barrack wrote.
Who stands to hurt the most? The list starts with the biggest holders of the loans, which include insurance companies, hedge funds and banks, specifically regional banks, Barrack wrote. Even as those banks are struggling with liquidity, they are "the reservoirs of some of the most dangerous pools of commercial real estate loans." He reasons that investment banks took many of the highest-quality loans, leaving regional banks holding those commercial loans without stable income streams, often from their own banking clients.
A commercial real-estate crash also would hurt the campaigns of some activist shareholders, including William Ackman, the founder of Pershing Square Capital Management. Ackman's team has hatched plans for two retailers–Longs Drug Stores and Target–that hinge on the underappreciated value of the companies' real-estate holdings.
Consider that proposal for Target. Ackman said a spinoff of Target's commercial real estate would push the retailer's stock to $70 a share, up 74% from where Target had been trading for the 20 days before Ackman's announcement. But if commercial real-estate values crash, that spinoff wouldn't add as much value to shareholders.
Update: People familiar with Pershing's plan say that the value of the underlying land doesn't impact the plan. They also maintain that the value of the plan would not be contingent on the liquidation value of the land because the REIT is a function of the cash flows and tax structure instead.

The Best Meat You Can Eat In L.A.
By Jenny Peters
Los Angeles Local Expert
Whether you want yours blood rare or barely pink inside, lean and mean or marbled and juicy, there's a steakhouse in Los Angeles that's just waiting to slice you up a just-right piece of meat.
For despite L.A.'s reputation for being the place where skinny actors only eat vegan diets, the steakhouse is a mainstay of Southern California. Perhaps it's all the scientists and engineers that also make up the vibrant landscape of Los Angeles (it really isn't just about Hollywood here) or perhaps it's also those famous actors and musicians that populate the town, for they certainly draw the paparazzi outside of a number of the most popular steakhouses.
Perennial hotspots like Boa Steakhouse, Wolfgang Puck's CUT and Mastro's Steak House are constantly hosting famous faces from every walk of life, while venerable classics like Lawry's The Prime Rib actually holds the Beef Bowl every year, offering a meat-eating extravaganza to the two Rose Bowl college football teams in the days before the game. As of 2014, that steak party has happened for 59 years running!
Newcomers regularly join the steakhouse ranks, too, for Southern California is a very big place and can support many top-notch places specializing in beef. Which means this list of the 10 Best Steakhouses in Los Angeles includes both classic and cutting-edge places, all with one thing in common: their steaks are delicious.
Chianina Steakhouse
When Chianina Steakhouse burst on the Long Beach dining scene in December 2013, everyone who loves beef in Southern California rejoiced. For the Italian-influenced restaurant began by serving top-grade Piedmontese beef and other prime meats, paired with luscious risottos, classic Caesar salad or iceberg wedges and plenty of other sides and starters. But then in August 2014, Chianina (pronounce it "KEY-a-nina") announced the arrival of its first Chianina beef, the famed Italian-origin white cattle known for their leanness and flavor. Raised organically in Utah specifically for Chianina and used from head to toe at the restaurant (and its two sister places, Michael's on Naples and Michael's Pizzeria), the meat is so delicious that when it arrives each month, it generally sells out within two weeks, at premium prices. So be sure to get there soon after the "Whole Animal" arrives, or you'll have to wait until the following month. (562-434-2333)
L'Assiette Steak Frites
L'Assiette Steak Frites does one thing and they do it very well. Making Steak Frites is an art, and chef/owner Jacques Fiorentino has perfected it, serving up a perfectly cooked, very lean, sliced Coulotte steak smothered in the house's secret sauce. Beside it are the pommes frites, crispy, piping hot, thin-cut French fries that melt in your mouth. To ensure that you have the ultimate experience with this classic French brasserie dish, L'Assiette offers it in two servings. This keeps the fries from getting cold and soggy, and ensures that the steak is eaten at the perfect temperature, too. All that for $25! Add a Black Truffle Sauce for $14 more and you'll be in foodie heaven. And while they actually do serve a Poisson Frites (fish of the day) and a Portobello Frites for those foolish enough to not eat steak, this convivial place is all about the meat. (323-274-2319)
Ruth's Chris Steak House - Pasadena
One of the world's most successful steakhouses since 1965 when Ruth Fertel opened the first one in New Orleans, Ruth's Chris Steak House is known for the "sizzle." That's the sound their quick-seared U.S.D.A. Prime steaks make as they hit the chain's signature 500-degrees-Fahrenheit-heated ceramic serving dish (don't touch that plate!) and are slathered with butter just before they hit your table. You'll feel the New Orleans influence when you taste the appetizers, many of which are served up with a spicy Creole Remoulade sauce. Save room for another taste of NOLA for dessert, for the Bread Pudding with Whiskey Sauce comes straight from Ruth's original kitchen. (626-583-8122)
Lawry's the Prime Rib
Lawry's opened in 1938 in Beverly Hills, with the standing rib roast as the only featured entree on the menu. Today Lawry's exists worldwide with additional entrees available, yet the menu remains traditionally simple with a focus on beef made to order. Home of the original Lawry's seasoning, the seasoning and sauces are now available for sale at many retailers. Be sure to try the famed prime rib and if you're feeling especially ravenous, try the larger Jim Brady Cut or the Beef Bowl Cut. Served with Yorkshire pudding and horseradish with whipped cream tableside, the prime rib aroma of sizzling red meat pervades the entire restaurant. It's the perfect place for any steak house aficionado looking for a traditionally delicious dinner. (310-652-2827)
Boa Steakhouse - Sunset
Boa Steakhouse in West Hollywood has been a celebrity magnet since the moment it opened in 2009. Be prepared to see paparazzi staked out by the front door, and don't be surprised when Nicki Minaj or Kim Kardashian are seated nearby. Everyone who is anyone goes to Boa, so if it's star watching you want along with an excellent cut of beef, then Boa is the place. Choose a 40-day dry aged New York Strip, a premium Japanese Wagyu cut or spice it up with their signature Cajun Cowboy Rib Eye. There's plenty of "surf" to go with your "turf," too, with a whole Maine lobster on offer most days. Ask for a table on the lovely large patio to spend a perfect night under the stars. (310-278-2050)
Chef Suzanne Tracht (you may know her from "Top Chef Masters") knows just what people in Los Angeles want – it's meat, cooked up in a variety of ways at Jar. Her Signature Pot Roast will likely be the best you've ever eaten, while choosing one of her various broiled prime-beef offerings (porterhouse, filet, skirt steak, rib eye, etc.) smothered in a lobster Béarnaise sauce will be the best dining decision you've ever made. There's a slight Asian tinge to everything they make at Jar, perhaps influenced by Tracht's stint at the renowned restaurant Jozu and definitely because of Chef de Cusine's Preech Narkthong's guiding hand. (323-655-6566)
Morton's The Steakhouse
Morton's The Steakhouse has been a fixture for so long in Los Angeles that it used to be called Arnie Morton's, in order to differentiate it from another restaurant named Morton's. These days, Morton's The Steakhouse is the only one in town (with this outpost on La Cienega as well as another location downtown), still doing exactly what the Chicago-based company has done since 1978: serving up some of the juiciest steak you've ever tasted. The restaurant's brass and wood decor is distinctly masculine and traditional, but female steak lovers are welcomed with open arms. Expect to be treated well by the friendly waitstaff, who present dinner selections by bringing out a cart of options and telling you stories about each dish. (310-246-1501)
Ocean Prime - Beverly Hills
Ocean Prime Beverly Hills is the eleventh location of the popular Cameron Mitchell seafood and steak restaurants, which opened in November 2014. With its welcoming patio (especially at night when the fire pits are burning brightly), convivial bar, warm main dining room, top-notch staff and deliciously diverse menu, the eatery has quickly become a popular spot for both locals, tourists and Rodeo Drive shoppers hungry for a quick bite or a full meal. Prime steaks are broiled to perfection, and there's an extensive wine list and a knowledgeable sommelier to help you choose the perfect pairing. Don't miss the Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes (offered as an appetizer or entree), the Sea Scallops or the Black Truffle Mac & Cheese, which may just be the best you've ever eaten. Chicken, chops, salads, and even a raw bar and sushi bar round out Ocean Prime's excellent offerings. (310-859-4818)
Mastro's Steak House
Mastro's Steak House knows what people want. A classic, leather-and-wood place where power players from every segment of Angeleno society meet to talk business and indulge in top-quality steaks, usually paired with seriously fine red wines. Share a massive, double-cut, 48-ounce porterhouse or their famed New York Pepper Strip; beforehand, indulge in a caviar appetizer, Oysters Rockefeller or an elegant Beef Carpaccio. Don't miss the Lobster Mashed Potatoes on the side and consider making a whole meal out of the incredibly decadent Alaskan King Crab Black Truffle Gnocchi side dish. Mastro's has a complete seafood menu as well as veal, pork and lamb dishes on offer for those who are not in the mood for beef. (310-888-8782)
Located inside the Beverly Wilshire Hotel, Wolfgang Puck's CUT has been at the top of the steakhouse heap in Los Angeles since it opened in 2007. The strikingly modern interior, designed by famed architect Richard Meier, welcomes guests to an unparalleled dining experience. There's a steak for every taste here, ranging from U.S.D.A. Prime Beef aged 21 or 35 days; Grass-Fed Angus Beef; American Wagyu from famed grower Snake River Farms; and 100 percent Japanese Wagyu imported from Kyushu. No matter which type of beef or cut you choose, there's one thing certain here: your steak will be perfectly cooked and served with sauces that will make you swoon (be sure to try the Argentinean Chimichurri). Attention to every detail, charming service and – often – a chance to say "Hi" to the master chef himself make Puck's CUT a true cut above the rest. (310-276-8500, 310-275-5200)

Harbingers of Summer
Posted by Diana Kenney under MBL, Woods Hole
No Comments
Hot weather appeared abruptly in Woods Hole this week, and along with it came a flock of early birds. With radios playing and adrenaline pumping, faculty and teaching assistants in Loeb Laboratory began unpacking crates of lab equipment, hooking it up, testing it out, and making sure all systems are go before the first MBL summer courses begin on Monday. There have also been sightings of early-arriving Whitman Investigators in Rowe Laboratory.
A warm welcome back to the MBL!

main calling main
i wanted to test whether main can call itself..it does
but how many times? mine ran 43336 times
what restricts the no. of calling of main?
Re: main calling main
What you did is called recursion. And the number of times a function can call itself is depended on the number of parameters to the function and the stack size of the program. Every time a function is called, whether recursive or not, the program has to save the values of important registers on the stack so that they can be restored when program control is returned back to the function, and it has to also save the value of all parameters on the stack (there are a few times when that is not done, but I'll ignore them now). So a function with no parameters can be called recursively more times than a function that has one or more parameters. The more parameters the fewer times it can be called.
Re: main calling main
thanks for the reply
but a question again,
is the stack size predefined or is it defined by the compiler ?
Re: main calling main
Re: main calling main
In the current C++ standard it is clearly stated that the main function is special in that it cannot be overloader, called recursively and taken its address. Even if your implementation accepts such a program(which is ill-formed), that code is unsafe and not portable. Don't do that

About This Book
One humble house tells its own intriguing history. "Today, big houses surround me, up and down my street. When I was built, the Fairchilds were the only people around for miles and miles." Standing strong and proud, a trusty old farmhouse reflects on its beginnings, remembering the Fairchild family who built it more than two hundred years ago and comparing what life was like then to the bustling world of the Gray family, its present dwellers.
With rich historical detail and warm affirmation of both past and present, When I Was Built celebrates continuity and change, as it conveys the welcoming spirit that makes a house a much-loved home.

Dear Debra is online now
We are an older couple with three children each. His are older
Resolved Question:
We are an older couple with three children each. His are older (23, 21, 18), mine are (18, 16, 12). We have been dating for over two years and last October, we agreed to move in together once the two highschool seniors leave for college this next summer.
I love my man and do want to move forward, but I was having difficulty with moving my children into his house without a deeper commitment. I was married for 18 years and didn't think I wanted to do that again, but as time passed, I realized that it was too casual for me to move in with my "boyfriend." I felt vulnerable as I was putting my children at risk.
So this past April, I was ready, I simply said that I would like to get married and at least engaged before I move my family. He responded positively and said "when."
Since then, very typical of him not to move on getting me a ring or discussing a move in date although we have mentioned little things here and there until this past Friday. We were discussing some things about the move and rooms and such but what told me he was serious about the merge is when he had already had a budget in mind and how we would share expenses. I said "have you picked out a ring?" His response was - "I was waiting for you to coordinate a date so we can go shopping." When was I suppose to know that?
So rather than taking this personally, I simplay emailed him the next morning saying, "this saturday WE are going shopping for OUR engagement rings ALL day. I am sooo excited!"
He did not respond.
He also has tried to push the move in to January for clear reasons but I said no for very valid reasons so the move would be this summer.
I'm away this week on business and my kids are alone. I had asked that he drop by and say hello to them. I called because he asked me to and found out he was over friends I have never met before and he had plans the following day and I didn't want to ask anymore but most likely plans for the week.
I get that men don't communicate and I don't want to control the relationship. So I'm trying to get myself to a point where I'm away on business to not care if he makes plans with out telling me and I will try NOT to ask specific questions to find out what he was doing. Our conversation may go something like "Hi, how was your week? Mine was good and yours? Good too, great!" and that would be the end of that.
So I'm depressed because he did not respond to my email about our rings, he's out all week, he didn't bother to visit my kids last night AFTER I reminded him to please do me the favor as they are alone and I'm on the other side of the country.
Does he really want to get married and have me move in?
I would have preferred a man proactive with something like this, but a lack of response is a typical reaction when he's upset with the topic, does not agree, is not looking forward to it or when things are not on the forefront of his mind. Like fixing his roof, he'll wait until significant damage is done do finally get it fixed.
I don't want to be depressed about this but I am and I don't really know why this is hitting me hard. Should I cancel the ring thing this Saturday and if I do what do I say?

Dear Debra
replied 5 years ago.
You have someone that rather than discuss how they are feeling he holds it in or ignores it. The ring could be just about money, it might have nothing to do with him not wanting to marry you. When you love someone you want to get them the best of everything. You don't want them to go out shopping for a ring and you can't buy the ring of their dreams. I see this relationship moving in a very positive direction. I don't see any doubts I think he is someone who is preparing to give you the best. He loves you and is just not an expressive person about how he feels about things, so you have to watch for his emotions without him expressing them. You are both preparing a life together. You are going to get engaged and you never know he might not want to say anything because he could be planning something that is a suprise. I wouldn't cancel Saturday because you will give him the impression that you don't want to marry him. He might get scared and back off thinking that you don't want to spend the rest of your life with him. Everything looks very positive in this relationship, keep moving forward and build a life together. He sounds like he wants to be engaged and spend the rest of his life with you. It's ok if he didn't respond about the ring, it could be just him setting things up to give you the best ring and the best engagement.

Reading school officials talk security in wake of student fights
Hundreds of students who attend the Citadel Intermediate High School will be under the microscope as they return to school, Tuesday, officials said.
The heightened alert comes after a series of fights erupted throughout the streets of Reading just after school was dismissed for the Easter break.
The video of the fights has cause anger and concern among several city leaders, including Mayor Vaughn Spencer, who is demanding answers.
"We don't want to see incidents like that," Mayor Spencer said.
Cell phone video of the melees posted on Facebook shows that students showed up with baseball bats, two by fours, and even a piece of furniture.
The mayor says, Tuesday, he will be reaching out to the Reading school district superintendent.
"We're looking now to see whether anybody brought stuff into the park, but there was a clear effort there to have a weapon of harm and destruction," Spencer said.
The mayor adds that police are also aware of the situation and they are ready to mobilize immediately if similar fights erupt throughout the city again.

April 14, 2008, 12:53 AM
I'm not sure what county Purdue University is in, but would I have to go to a designated county (wherever that might be) and get the application from the police department there?
Also, I see a list of license types. Does it matter which type I pick? I suppose "Four Year Personal Protection" seems the most logical. does it matter?
April 14, 2008, 01:06 AM
I have an answer for you!
Ok, Purdue is in Tippecanoe county. RIght now there is confusion between the w lafayette city police department and the sheriff. They are not following the letter of the law on permit issuance. So here is the easiest way for you to get a permit. First you get an Indiana state ID, not a drivers license but an ID. Then you go to the police department and get the application packet.
If you have questions just ask, I have a friend going through a similar process.
Send me an IM if you like, it's kinda complicated.

CHL?:confused: Oh, Texas talk, gotcha, cowpoke.:D
It's a License to Carry a Handgun here. There is no dress code, but open carry is on the rare side (besides it's cold and rainy here now, bring a jacket, young man, we don't cotton to Global Warming up here).:D
I'm not sure what county Purdue University is in
That would be my home, Tippecanoe County, Indiana: http://www.county.tippecanoe.in.us/
but would I have to go to a designated county (wherever that might be) and get the application from the police department there?
You will pick up the application from the PD where you live. So, where you are going to live? Got an apartment picked out? West Lafayette or Lafayette? Tell me where and I'll tell you where to go.:D
Also, I see a list of license types. Does it matter which type I pick? I suppose "Four Year Personal Protection" seems the most logical. does it matter?
Yes, it matters what you pick (The hunting/target shooting permit is for just those activities). You are correct, select the Personal Protection option.
it's kinda complicated
What's the complication?:confused:
April 14, 2008, 01:37 PM
El Tejon, you work jsut down the road form me! If you live in the city limits of Lafayette, then you ahve to go to the police station downtown. I you live INSIDE the city limits of West Lafayette, then you have to go to the west lafayete PD, which is by the west lafayette post office off of 52. If you live OUTSIDE either city limit, then you must go to the Sherrifs office on 9th st, jsut off of 52, to get the paperwork, and to get everything processed. It is advisable, if you do get a permit, to get the protection as well as the lifetime. Why ever have to deal with reapplying for your liscence?
Retgarr, what problems are you refering to with west lafayette/ Lafayette?
El Tejon
April 14, 2008, 03:40 PM
electron, you live on Ferry Street (I'm at Ferry and 2nd Street by the new condos/office building)? In those brownstones by 8th Street? On the hill in those old victorians? Where?
I'm off Union by Jesco Hills, the old Hedgewood neighborhood.
April 14, 2008, 05:17 PM
thanks for the replies guys.
I will be living on campus (Purdue University) for at least the first two years.
Any suggestions as to where to keep my handgun?
(I'm assuming guns are prohibited at Purdue dorms)
Also, reading the Indiana State CHL FAQ, it says TX is one of the states that recognizes an Indiana CHL.
In texas, however, you have to be 21 to carry. So could come back down to Texas with my Indiana license and carry lawfully?
Car Knocker
April 14, 2008, 05:28 PM
When in Texas you have to abide by Texas law.
El Tejon

Car, well, I didn't always.:D Does Tejas have a law against under 21 possessing firearms? The Tejas CHL statute requires 21, but does that apply to non-Texicanos? Don't know, have to look it up.
Since he would not be a Texicano, but a Hoosier, he would be legal to carry, unless there is a Tejas statute against under 21s possessing guns somewhere. Maybe something in the reciprocity agreement. Have to look it up.
Living in the dorms? Hmmm, have to ask one of the Purdue guys we have here. I'm sure they would have some ideas.
April 14, 2008, 05:52 PM
Let me know what they think, El Tejon:D
It is legal to possess a handgun in the state of TX as long as you're 18, but I believe concealed carry requires 21. Yet it says TX honors Indiana licenses, which is a 18+ state. weird.

El Tejon,you are the ultimate Indy authority and I bow to your wisdom.
Please double-check.
I have gone over Texas Chapter 46,Weapons,
Statutes 4601,4602,4603 &46.035,Subchapter H,Chapter 411,Govt. Code,
and in all this ,find nothing to keep a 18-20 year Indiana CCW permit holder from legally carrying in the Lone Star State.
I may have missed something.
Now,I'll take 2 Excedrin and try to unwind.
April 14, 2008, 07:36 PM
I don't think we have a law specifically prohibiting carrying at colleges and universities (correct me if I'm wrong, El Tejon, I'm sure you know), but guns are almost certainly prohibited on campus by university policy. The car is probably a no-go, too. One option might be to get a safe deposit box and keep it/them in there. Another option is to move off campus as soon as you can, and then you're good to go.
We issue lifetime permits now, although for a higher price. Mine was $100 to renew my old one. It's a little bit more for a first-timer ($130?). You might consider that option.
April 14, 2008, 07:48 PM
I recently graduated from Purdue, I recommend you check out the rifle and pistol club, on campus they shoot .22s only, but with the price of ammo having gone up, i recommend giving it a try. The club has .22s you can use and even an M1a. It is a good place to meet other people who like shooting, also sometimes they get together and shoot off campus.
Anyway get a Indiana ID first, I got my license at 20 and didn't have any problems, you will have to go to the local PD and have them fingerprint you and do a background check, since you are from out of state that may take longer, I'm not sure. Then you'll need to go back to the PD to pick up the paper work and get a money order for the state police, mail the money order and the paperwork, then you'll be mailed the license.
I also recommend you get Indiana Handgun Law by Bryan Lee Ciyou. The 2nd edition ( current ) will have a red cover.
As for storing you firearm, According to Ciyou, "what constitutes a "school" is not well defined under Indiana Law." p82
I lived off campus when I got my pistol, but what I have heard is that you can keep it locked up in your vehicle, unloaded would probably be best in this case. From what I've read on the State Police website and in Ciyou's work it seems that School is primary school or daycare and such are prohibited and that secondary education is not included. But I think there is some grey in this area of the law. Please check out http://www.in.gov/isp/ this is the actual Indiana state police website. I once called the State police and asked about this issue, I got a response along the lines of "I think so" fro the officer.
Please note that even if there is no penalty under state law, the University may prohibit firearms, which may lead to expulsion, potentially.
Another option I can think of is to get a bank deposit box, since possessing a firearm in a bank isn't illegal under state law. But then you will only have access to it when the bank is open. If you choose this I recommend putting the firearm in a non descriptive box or case in order to avoid attention.
If you choose to keep it in your vehicle my advice is the following. Park off campus, then dont brag to others that you have the firearm, especially in your vehicle, as it may get stolen or lead to other undesirable outcomes. Second whenever you are driving your vehicle and the firearm is in it, which includes in a truck, make sure you have you license. So that if the police officer asks if you have weapons you can present it to him/her.
Last but not lease DO get the license laminated or it won't last long, and read up on the laws in Indiana. The state police and Ciyou's work are good places to start I think. Good Luck.

Is Indiana like Texas in that when pulled over by an LEO, you must show them your CHL and/or declare that you are/aren't carrying at the time?
Also, can anyone confirm that I can come back to Texas and carry legally with my Indiana CHL?

Purdue Rifle and Pistol Club will store firearms for its members (membership $35/semester or $65 for the year) for free at present, but that may be changing next year to help the club budget (last I heardthe proposal was for $5 storage fee for the year).
I'll also second the notion of getting the Bryan Ciyou book "Indiana Handgun Law"
As for Purdue policy, you can find it here: http://www.purdue.edu/police/policies.htm
though working on changing that (join Students for Concealed Carry on Campus)
Drop me a line when you get here in the fall and I'll help you get things figured out - I'll still be around.

No requirement. Some think it may be a good idea, but that's up to you. Some people I know do it, but I follow "don't ask, don't tell.":D
As far as you carrying in Tejas after becoming an Indiana resident, I'm not too familiar with Texas law, but I would look at the reciprocity agreement (which is ironic as I helped draft the thing) and then Texas statutes and admin code to see if there is anything that would prevent this.
In your best interest to consult with an attorney licensed in Texas. Cheap insurance.
April 15, 2008, 07:21 AM
You can carry here at 18, but you can't buy one til you're 21. Bring your gun with.

I have heard this before but
Prohibited sales or transfers of ownership
Sec. 7. (a) Except an individual acting within a parent-minor child or guardian-minor protected person relationship or any other individual who is also acting in compliance with IC 35-47-10, a person may not sell, give, or in any other manner transfer the ownership or possession of a handgun or assault weapon (as defined in IC 35-50-2-11) to any person under eighteen (18) years of age.
Click for IC 35-47-10 (http://www.in.gov/legislative/ic/code/title35/ar47/ch10.html)
Can you point me to the law that says a dealer can't sell a firearm to anybody less than 21 years? According to what I have quoted above it is ok to transfer ownership of a handgun or assault weapon to any person 18 years or older.
Car Knocker
April 15, 2008, 07:44 PM

Federal law. 18 USC 922(b)(1):
It shall be unlawful for any licensed importer, licensed manufacturer, licensed dealer, or licensed collector to sell or deliver -
(1) any firearm or ammunition to any individual who the licensee knows or has reasonable cause to believe is less than eighteen years of age, and, if the firearm, or ammunition is other than a shotgun or rifle, or ammunition for a shotgun or rifle, to any individual who the licensee knows or has reasonable cause to believe is less than twenty-one years of age;
April 15, 2008, 08:34 PM
Didn't think about federal law. That statute doesn't outlaw private sales.
April 15, 2008, 08:45 PM
In terms of storage of personal firearms at Purdue Rifle and Pistol we will most likely NOT implement a storage fee next year. Other than having to be a member to store your gun there. On another note after a chat with the Indiana State Police you will not be issued a permit if you have a campus address. I've read Indiana firearms law and I don't see how that works but that's what I was told by the state police.
Or you could just keep your guns at my place!

April 15, 2008, 10:40 PM
ElTejon So where in the BIG stat of TX are you moving your law practice to? I understand Houston needs a new DA. Was floating an idea of recruiting you for Indiana Attorney General.

Wait...so if my residence is technically on the Purdue campus, I can't be issued a CHL by the Indiana State Police?
April 16, 2008, 07:07 AM
Here's a link to ISP and gun info. I'd call them. I live accross the street from the Purdue Calumet Extension Univ.. I doubt the local Leos could correctly site the laws pertaining to carry there.

2005 grad here...the solution is simple - LIVE OFF CAMPUS! Worked well & lasted a long time for me.
There was an indoor pistol range over in Lafayette where I actually took my wife on our very first actual "date". She put all seven shots from a Colt Mk. IV .380 in the black at 10 yards and I knew I was in love!
April 16, 2008, 09:44 AM
In texas, however, you have to be 21 to carry. So could come back down to Texas with my Indiana license and carry lawfully?
You will probably be legal with an Indiana license. The last legislative session ok'ed texas licenses for service people and recent vets who are 18. There seems to be no stipulation in the reciprocity agreement about age of Indiana licensees.
Of licences issued between 9/1/06 and 8/31/07, There are5 18year olds, 12 20 year olds and 30 20 year olds. this is out of 90,867 issued or renewed that year and 288,000 total active licenses

Yah, i checked and I don't have to live on campus as a Freshman, which is nice also because then I can actually keep my car (texas plates obviously) up in Indiana.
Can anyone give me some insight into which dorms to avoid or try seek out? I'm going up next weekend to visit with my family, and if the dorms that are left suck, I might try get off campus housing.
April 16, 2008, 02:39 PM
If you do live on campus as a freshman, keep your car at the airport, in the lot north of the railroad tracks and west of Airport Road.
Don't ask me how I know your car won't be towed there...

April 16, 2008, 02:55 PM
*grabs coat lapels* Welllll, it's an apartment you need? Why I just happen to know some very nice and respectable landlords I can put you in touch with.:D
If you have a car, then you have more options for digs. I rented at Vantage Pointe on 4th Street back in '95 and walked to work downtown. Since I work downtown I'm familar with it so you may want to look at digs downtown. You can walk across the pedestrian bridge, up the hill and be on campus in under 20 minutes. Plus, you'll be away from the student ghetto of WL near the river (although as a young man you may want to be where the action, i.e. the wimmins, is:D). Some cool apartments downtown, but I don't know what you are looking for.
Up next week? So are you coming to my class on the 27th? I'm teaching at the NRA Class at Wildcat Valley. You don't want to miss my lecture, I roll on the ground and froth at the mouth, always a good show.:)
If you want to meet up and talk about living arrangements or Indiana law or just guns, let me know. Friday night is sushi night, I'll be at Kokoro, Bea One, Heisei or some raw fish joint. Give me a call at the office or my cell phone (765) 427-0993 if you want to meet up.
April 16, 2008, 03:03 PM
Sounds good Tejon, will be in touch later.
To keep it further gun related, does Indiana mandate a training course before it issues CHLs?
El Tejon
April 16, 2008, 03:15 PM
No training class.
However, to prove that you are a Hoosier there is a written test which includes the rules of basketball, fishing techniques, general dog questions, the rules of euchre (you do know how to play euchre, right?), pick up truck repair, and general firearms knowledge.
April 16, 2008, 03:20 PM
1. Bob Knight is the Ditka of Indiana.
2. Euchre was founded by a bunch of drunk fratboys that forgot how to play Spades.
3. Southern Indiana topography is nothing like northern Indiana
4. Folks from NE Indiana say they are from Chicago but they aren't, they're from "the region"
El Tejon
April 16, 2008, 03:23 PM
1. Robert M. Knight is a saint and should be Ruler for Life of Indiana.
2. Euchre is a Franco-German card game of great skill and played by the educated, refined elite.
3. Southern Indiana is all bumpy and covered with trees which makes it a good place to go shooting but lousy rifle country.
4. Da Region=Region Rats (said with affection)

A guy a new a couple years back got his CHL, or CHP, or LCP, or whatever the acronym is for the pink piece of copy paper (I kid you not) that lets carry a gun here with a New York driver's license and a campus address - that of his dorm, minus his room number.
A month ago the West Lafayette police refused to give my girlfriend an application because her driver's license still has her parent's address in Indy on it, even though she lives here full-time now.
So its a crap shoot I guess. Listen to El T on all the silly law stuff, he does it for a living.
Yes, the rifle and pistol club stores guns. You have to be a member. The fee for storage isn't a realistic possibility, it was suggested in frustration because we've got a couple guns stored by people that showed up once and never came back... FOR THREE OR FOUR YEARS. Honestly, though, it's was easier to make friends with somebody in the club and store your guns in their off-campus dwelling. Its way easier to call them and pick up your guns than it is to track down whoever has the Armory keys.
A few introductions are in order, I suppose. As you can tell from my sig line, I'm the captain of the Purdue Pistol Team. retgarr is captain of the pack of crooked-shooting sissies he tries to pass off as a rifle team. Siderite is also a member, though he's more interested in the tactical run-and-gun instant gratification IDPA tomfoolery. The person in charge of said tomfoolery hasn't posted on this thread, but posts on THR under the name Thrash1982. There's a couple other members that lurk or have s/ns I can't remember.
What are you majoring in? Is it engineering? Did you know that freshman engineering has an 85% dropout rate? Bet they didn't tell you that in orientation. Or that you have a 23% chance of getting a degree in four years, regardless of your major. That being said, I love it here - the key is finding something you like to do.
As for dorms to a avoid... Wiley, Tarkington (spent four years there, it was a few too many), Owen... I can't remember the others. Basically, you want one of the dorms with A/C. That's all that matters. Oh, and avoid McCutcheon. Its roughly 1983759530468 miles from campus.
When's your day on campus? PM me and I'll take you shooting. Better yet, PM El Tejon, he might be willing, and he has way more guns than me. Any Purdue questions or whatnot, feel free to PM me, too. I just started grad school, so I'll be around for a while.
April 16, 2008, 09:34 PM
If your looking for an outdoor shooting range, The Linden Conservation Club is only 10-15 miles south of town. They have trap, a outdoor pistol range and 100yd rifle range. Memberships can be bought at Lafayette Guns & Gear for about $50 yr. Well it was $50 in 2005, may be a little higher now. Other locals may know of other ranges.
The Wiry Irishman
April 16, 2008, 09:46 PM
Linden is still $50, still nice as ever, and memberships can be purchased at Applied Ballistics. Maybe Guns & Gear, too. I'm a member, and its the best way to go for shooting centerfire if you don't have a real job and can't afford to pay for Wildcat. They have two 25 yard pistols ranges, one with spinners, a 50 yard rifle/pistol range, and as Match14 pointed out, a 100 and a sweet trap setup.
April 16, 2008, 11:12 PM
I'll be at Purdue from April 24 to 26, a Thursday night until Saturday afternoon. I'll be taking a general tour with the other accepted students. Krannert school of management is where I'm headed to study this fall.

IC 35-47-2-21(b) "Licenses to carry handguns, issued by other states or foreign countries, will be recognized according to the terms thereof but only while the holders are not residents of Indiana." If you can get some sort of teenage target/range license in TX at your age, that might help if the ISP won't issue a license on grounds that you're a non-resident. That may avoid the trouble with unlicensed transportation of a handgun in Indiana.
April 17, 2008, 11:01 PM
Hang on...I wasn't aware that I needed a license to transport handguns in Indiana...
Secondly, I plan on becoming a resident asap so that the ISP cannot deny me for that reason.
El Tejon
April 18, 2008, 07:24 AM
Ummm, yeah, you do need a license to carry a pistol, but I thought we covered that?:scrutiny:
April 18, 2008, 12:13 PM
No, I meant to transport them in a vehicle? Even unloaded in the trunk?
dance varmint
April 18, 2008, 12:56 PM
Yes, the law calls for some kind of permit, even traveling with it cased from home to the range, or while shooting at a public range like at the Dept. of Natural Resources wildlife areas. The nuance is "carry" in that statue; I wonder if it broadly means transporting for this purpose. So could an 18-year old with a New Jersey Permit to Think About a Single Shot Derringer also get by in Indiana if we had the thought police here too.
El Tejon
April 18, 2008, 01:13 PM
dodging, yes, even in your trunk. Sorry, but when I teach the NRA class I get the contortions that people go through to avoid paying $25 for a license. Hundreds if not thousands for a pistol, but any magical thinking to avoid a $25 fee seems to be permissible. Get the license.
"Well, if my dog carries the gun since he owns it, then I don't NEED a license, right?" This is after I have explained for 417th time, that there is no magic exemption for going to the range, Uncle Paul's farm to shoot, or for "just in case" to the weekly euchre game in the church basement. Get the license.
Loaded, unloaded, with a trigger lock, to carry it on your dog, your horse, your motorcycle, your yak, to carry 10 pistols on you, to carry on a boat with a goat, in your glovebox, in your toolbox, in your purse, get a license! Get the license, or I roll on the ground and froth at the mouth (as I mentioned earlier).:D
Above all, get the license. O.K., any questions?:D
April 18, 2008, 01:16 PM
I'm moving to Sellersburg soon...where do I get said license? Local Sheriff's office? I have a Kentucky CCW which will soon be useless I suppose...

If so, you can bring it up, just don't be carrying it out and about.
If not, it will keep in Tejas.
The Wiry Irishman
April 19, 2008, 01:32 AM
If you're on campus, the gun can sit in the club's safe in the armory til you get your license... though there wouldn't be much point. Can't carry it on campus, and if you were going somewhere and you wanted to carry, you'd have to make a ton of phone calls to find out who has the keys, then hope whoever it is has time to get them out for you... not really practical.
If you're off campus, bring it up, and just let it sit in your apartment until your license comes in the mail. As El T said, just don't go toting it around.
April 19, 2008, 11:14 AM
If going to school here and having a permanent residence in TX, couldn't a CCW holder in TX carry in IN since IN recognizes TX reciprocity? That would seem the simple answer in that case.
Got my CCW yesterday in the mail here in IN. took approximately 7 weeks. Indiana is a shall issue state, so as long as you are not a felon or an habitual drunk, you will get one. As far as I know, you do not have to claim a weapon if stopped by the police but it might be a good idea if not concealed well as you might get treated differently if the police find it instead of you claiming it. If you do claim it, be prepared to be handcuffed "for your protection" while the weapon is unloaded by the police, which can make one nervous if the person doing it does not understand that particular weapon. I have heard of police accidentally pointing a 1911 at the stopped person while trying to figure out how to unload it (the police here carry Glocks). That would make me nervous.
El Tejon
April 19, 2008, 11:28 AM
hoosier8, in Tejas one has to be 21 for a CHL. Dodging is 18 and thus does not qualify for a CHL in his current state of residence.
You are correct, one does not need to "declare" ("I do declare") that one is carrying a pistol. If I am not under arrest and I am handcuffed for "protection", I would seek legal redress at once and collect a check and a badge.
Yes, giving guns over to the polic can be very scary, just ask THR member Dan Flory who saw the wrong end of his Walther P99 thanks to the bumbling incompetence of the Indiana State Police.

Wilma is a 40-year old mother of 2 children who attend high school and elementary education in a local school. Her husband is employed in a local product distribution company but on a temporary status. Wilma used to work in another product distribution company but decided to stop and just stay at home. She felt the need to complement her husband's income by selling food outside the local school where one of her kids is attending. But she had difficulty getting capital for her business, especially during slow times.
She signed up for a savings account through her microfinance institution called CARD Bank. Instead of borrowing from a local money lender she was able to tap into her savings to invest in her business. She replaces the withdrawn amount when business is better. Although she was not able to completely avoid taking loans, her total debt is now reduced as a result of the savings program. This means that she does not have to pay exorbitant fees for her debts and instead can use the money for her children.
As a result of her positive experience in CARD Bank's savings program, she is now encouraging her younger child to open a kiddie savings account in the bank. She wants him to learn the value of savings and preparing for the future.
