2/28 GDT : Red Wings 5 at Blue Jackets 2
Posted 29 February 2012 - 03:11 PM
"If I were to wish for anything, I should not wish for wealth and power, but for the passionate sense of the potential, for the eye which, ever young and ardent, sees the possible. Pleasure disappoints, possibility never. And what wine is so sparkling, what so fragrant, what so intoxicating, as possibility!" - Kierkegaard
Posted 29 February 2012 - 03:27 PM
Not even, and Ken and Mick were joking about this the entire game. "We almost had a no hitter!"
Not to be a downer, but...did they really outhit us 33-2? Seriously?

I watched the game on the DVR this morning and I know that Columbus outhit the Wings, but I didn't think it was by that wide of a margin. IMHO, they can outhit us 100-2, and I would still be happy with a 5-2 win.

Forget about the hitting. A much bigger concern is the inept powerplay. All year it has been like this. The wings have given up 8 SSG, most in the Western conference. This needs to be changed - the power play coach is using an over simplified system that all teams can combat. No one is in the position to get a rebound. Players are in ther corner or behind the net - feed it to the point where it eithe jumps over the stick of the D-man - or it's a wide shot or blocked which either leads to a rush or a clear. Rarely is there sustained pressure after a faceoff.

"Overall great experience with Wedding Paper Divas - great selection and pricing, fast turnaround with shipping and we loved the quality of our magnetic save the dates - we will be using WPD for our invitations as well!"
"Just loved this whole suite. We are having a rehearsal luncheon for our son in a room with a lot of greenery so the design is perfect.

Seven thousand miles might seem a long way to go to watch a baseball game, but Hideki Matsui was" a man with a mission. Fascinated since childhood by the New York Yankees, particularly Babe Ruth, the Japanese superstar made a pilgrimage to the U.S. in October of 1999. to catch, the Yankees in the playoffs and to visit the baseball Hall of Fame. But to the pal accompanying him, sportswriter Isao Hirooka, it soon became apparent the excursion to Cooperstown was almost an afterthought. Once inside the Bronx Bombers' home, Matsui "pointed out in the field and said Babe Ruth stood right over there," recalls Hirooka. "Later he said that he wished he could play at Yankee Stadium. After we got home, he told me he couldn't forget about that game he saw."
These days it's Yankee fans who can't forget Matsui, the team's newest master blaster. Since signing his $21 million, three-year contract, the southpaw slugger has offered ample examples of the power that earned him the nickname Godzilla back in high school, including a towering grand slam that won the Yanks' home opener April 8. Batting .275 with 20 RBIs as of press time, the 28-year-old outfielder, says teammate Jason Giambi, is "not only a great power hitter, but he's a great hitter."
And Matsui seems to be a real hit in the clubhouse with a humility and good humor that belie his iconic status in Japan, where, Giambi observes, "he's like Michael Jordan." On the first day of spring training, Matsui arrived in the locker room with his interpreter and promptly went to introduce himself, individually, to everyone. He also endeared himself early on to manager Joe Torre, whom he presented with a special tea set. "He has a calm about him," says Torre. "There's always a camera trained on him, and he handles that with a great deal of ease." The way Matsui sees it, "I can't really control the pressure that comes from the outside." What he can, and does, focus on is trying "to make sure that I do not apply pressure on myself, and make sure I concentrate on the game."
Credit some of Matsui's uncanny composure to his father, Masao, 62, a shinpu (reverend teacher) for a Shinto-based religion in the family's hometown of Neagari, 200 miles northwest of Tokyo. Even as a very small boy, Masao says, his younger son could hit the ball farther and play better than his brother Toshiki, four years older. Says Masao: "That ball really flew."
Drafted directly out of high school by the Yomiuri Giants, Japan's most storied franchise, Matsui quickly-demonstrated that his Godzilla nickname was well deserved. During his decade as a player he would belt 332 homers (including 50 last year, when he led the league) and bat for an average of .304. But something in Matsui craved a challenge fiercer than the Seibu Lions. He wanted to test himself against the likes of Barry Bonds and Alex Rodriguez. "Whenever there was an opportunity to see a Yankees game broadcast in Japan, Hideki would watch," his father remembers. "I guess he has always loved America."
So while Matsui may occasionally miss his personal chiropractor, or some of his favorite Japanese treats—like his pregame snack of onigiri (rice balls)—his family says he's not at all homesick. "If anything, he seems happier now that he is living in America," says his father, even if the bachelor has yet to find the time to furnish and move into his new apartment. "I haven't had a chance," says Matsui, "to enjoy New York yet." Whether he'll be discovering the town on his own, or with some female company, is a matter on which he is rather coy. "I ask him once in a while about that," says his father, "but he just laughs."
As part of the transition process, teammates are helping Matsui improve his still-modest English skills. "The players are teaching him some unsavory comments and phrases, but he's having fun with it," says manager Torre. "Between Clemens and Jeter, they'll have him Americanized in a short period of time." But there is at least one key English phrase Matsui already knows just fine. Asked what the Japanese word for "home run" is, he smiles and says, "Home run." The Babe couldn't have said it better.

This will be the sixth year that Gaffigan, 46, performs at the Pabst Theater around New Year's. Beside the fact that tickets continue to sell well (he's playing three shows from Saturday through Monday this year) there's another important reason why he keeps coming back. »Read Full Article

i'm not gonna speculate as to what it can or can't do but imagine how f'n awesome it'd be watchin youtube vids on a big screen tv!!!!
get a real instant messenger and stop complaining! and yes opera for wii supports both java and flash.
Please PM me before adding me!
i'm not gonna speculate as to what it can or can't do but imagine how f'n awesome it'd be watchin youtube vids on a big screen tv!!!!
Let's clear this up. Opera are nothing to do with Mozilla.
Opera are a Norwegian based software house. They have a little over £20M active users. There browser was always streets ahead of Microshaft's Internet Exploder and they were the first to offer tabbed browsing and a whole load of browser functionality that now appear in Firefox and IE.
The Opera browser scheduled for the Wii is not the same as the latest Opera on a PC. It's called 'Opera 9 for devices'. Designed for things like Portable Media players, set top boxes and similar. There's a strong chance that we may end up with a cut down and limited browsing experience.
O9FD is optimized to run fast in constrained environments, and it maintains a small code base, making it ideal for devices aiming for a high quality user experience.
I think that the reason Nintendo chose Opera is that their browser can do content formatting on the fly. This is critical for a game console as evrybody will be using different screens - different sizes, different resolutions.
"Opera's Extensible Rendering Architecture (ERA) delicately squeezes content to fit the screen regardless of its dimensions, eliminating the need for horizontal scrolling. Operas ERA and TV rendering (TVR) can optimize the Web experience for any size screen"
"Opera's spatial navigation makes it easy to navigate on platforms that don't have a mouse. By pressing a directional button on the remote (or in our case pointing the Wii at a navigation arrow) Opera navigates in the most logical links.
Just keep your fingers crossed guys!...........

Mitch's Multi-Monitor, Over the Top Home Office
Mitch explains the method to his madness: "...it's fun and probably qualifies as a hobby at this point. I've tried to create a space that is pleasant in which to work. I'm in here 60-80 hours a week during crunch time. It's way less depressing than long hours at an uncomfortable desk and phone books to boost the monitor height. After many years of working at tables that were the wrong height, looking at small monitors, listening to loud computers, typing on cramped keyboards that hurt my shoulders, sitting in falling-apart chairs, I decided enough was enough. Some people have over-the-top cars, I have an over-the-top office." This outrageous arrangement of 5 monitors, one for every finger, ends up almost encircling the user with a whopping overall resolution of 11440 × 1600 pixels. This enormous screen real estate is attained with four 30" Apple Cinema Displays plus an additional 20" monitor, arranged in a semi-circle. Two monitors are plugged into the original ATI Radeon 5770. Only an extra ATI Radeon 5770 card is needed to drive the extra three monitors. All of this available screen real estate does come with its own set of problems. Finding the mouse cursor can be problematic with 5 screens to span across, but by accessing a system setting in the mouse preferences (System Prefs -> Universal Access -> Mouse) he was able to adjust the cursor to an easy to find 96x96 pixel size.
Mitch uses a twofold desk system. The main desk is from Bush Furniture (Series C Collection), comprising of a credenza and a recess, allowing him to keep the monitors eye-level, while using the lower surface for his keyboard. His second desk is a Design Within Reach Dordoni Worktable.
The front desk is used for administrative tasks, like paying bills and paperwork. We won't get into the details of his Mac Pro, but if you're curious it's an 8-core with 32 GB of RAM and 38 TB of storage (in RAID drives 8 TB + 12 TB + 18 TB Drobo Pro). Lastly, Mitch doesn't just code in his attic home office. An Eames lounge chair partnered with a Toto Cube Lamp allows him to put up his feet and read some of the many books creates a comfortable space to enjoy even when not surrounded by 5 monitors.
Readers wanting to try and get a similar setup should be wary of the overall cost needed to follow Mitch's footsteps. A more affordable route would consists of a (perhaps Apple refurbed) Mac Pro with two new 27-inch Apple Thunderbolt Displays. The Mac Pro can drive two 27" monitors out of the box. As such, you'd be looking at half the total resolution of Mitch's setup, but you'd still be spending at least $4,300. The only way to cut costs further would be to switch over to a PC with 24" monitors instead of 27" or 30" screens. That would whittle down the cost to about half of the similar Mac setup ($2,000). Alternatively, an iMac could be hooked up to another 27" Apple Display, for around $2,200 USD. Multi-monitor displays are possible with laptops, but usually the more performing graphics card of a computer desktop is needed to drive 2+ screens.

JERUSALEM - Israel Defense Forces Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Benny Gantz said Israel is preparing to shelter Alawite refugees fleeing Syria.
"The day the Assad regime falls, this is expected to hurt the Alawite sect," Gantz told members of the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee Tuesday. "We are getting ready to take in Alawite refugees in the Golan Heights."
Alawites, a sect that broke away from traditional Islam more than 1,000 years ago, believe the Koran should be understood allegorically. Alawites gained control of Syria in 1970, during a coup led by President Bashar al-Assad's father, Hafez. The sect makes up about 12 percent of Syria's 74 percent majority Sunni population.
Meanwhile, Gantz said Assad's internal problems make it unlikely he'll attack Israel at this time, but Syria's massive weapons cache, including Russian SA-117 anti-aircraft missiles, bears monitoring.
The IDF chief also noted the growing threat from Lebanon, where Hezbollah maintains close ties with the Assad regime.
Following the Second Lebanon War with Israel in the summer of 2006, Syria transferred massive amounts of Iranian weapons to Hezbollah.
Gantz said 2012 would be a "critical" year - from "Iran gaining nuclear power, changes in leadership, continuing pressure from the international community" and a myriad of "events that happen unnaturally."
The Jerusalem Post contributed to this report.

For us, and many other students of the game, it easy to wonder what if?—what if Griffey had not spent so much time on the disabled list when he returned to his stomping grounds (and took less money) to play for the hometown Reds? Would he be inching on 700, or 750, instead of 600 homers? We will never know, and thinking about it does not accomplish anything of value.
Then there is his defense. One cannot mention Griffey without bringing up the highlight-reel catches. All of those diving grabs took a toll on his body, for sure, but there was nothing more exciting than watching Griffey play center field during his prime. He won a lot (10, to be precise) of Gold Gloves, in his day—not the most meaningful tool for evaluating defensive performance, given some writers' bias, laziness and inclination to vote strictly on reputation—and truly was an outstanding outfielder for an extended period of time.
A versatile player who could kill a team in so many different ways, he will always be remembered as the greatest center fielder of his era, especially among those who played Little League baseball in the late-'90s and regard Todd Frazier as a legend. Interestingly enough—to show you how fast time has passed—Frazier, drafted out of
Even more telling, there were hundreds of players selected in the amateur draft last week who were not even born yet when Seattle made Griffey, then just a skinny kid out of Moeller High School, the number one overall pick back in 1987. Signs like this, in addition to Frazier's presence, all point to the end of the line for one of baseball's most respected, well-liked ambassadors.
Griffey was forced to switch to right field last year, and his range and food speed continue to decline. And it is truly not in the Reds' best interest to pick up his option for 2009. All in all, Griffey probably needs to move to the other league, where he can become a full-time DH, perhaps prolonging his career to enable him to reach the 650-homer mark in the process.
But now, the world watches as Griffey remains at 599.
Sure, he will get to the promise land in the next few days, as it is only a matter of time.
Regardless of what happens, though, one thing is certain: Ken Griffey Jr. is undoubtedly one of the premier players of his generation, the steroids era, and managed to do so by keeping his reputation squeaky clean.
Judging by the love he receives at every opposing ballpark and the recent All-Star voting results, it is easy to see the tremendous impact that Griffey has had on others—from fans to former teammates—but most important, the game itself.

Rejoicing Proud Jews: Reflections on Lag B'Omer
Latest update: July 3rd, 2012
Driving through Israel on a packed bus heading for Meron on Lag B'Omer. Along the way I see small fires lit everywhere, the radio talks about the holiday, the police are directing the public transportation system to bring a million Jews to Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai.
Many, however, do not know what this celebration is all about. Why do we put so much emphasis on one great rabbi? Why do we make fires all over the country and Jewish world? Why do we go up on mass to Meron, while Jerusalem is emptied?
Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai, Rashbi, was a rebel. He rebelled against the Romans, and repudiated their culture. He saw nothing positive about the Roman physical and cultural occupation and was vocal and active against them. The Romans, ever vigilant, closed in on Rashbi and he was forced to flee. His flight was marked by a prolonged period of hiding, and while in a cave, Rashi and his son began writing down the Kabbalah, Jewish esoteric wisdom.
The Romans won. They put down the uprising led by Rabbi Akiva and Rabbi Shimon. They killed millions of Jews and exiled millions to Rome, selling them as slaves. They destroyed the Temple and sacked Jerusalem.
Judaism, now bereft of land and Temple, with millions dead and dispossessed, seemed to be on the brink of utter destruction.
But Rashbi and his colleagues put into place a system of surviving the exile. For the next 15 centuries, Judaism would become portable and just as Rashbi went into hiding, so did the Kabbalah, the internal life spirit of Judaism. For fifteen-hundred years did the Kabbala hide, passed secretly amongst the sages. This transmission kept the Kabbala alive through the persecution and the darkness of the exile.
But around 1550 CE a man came to the land of Israel who saw that the era of the exile had come to an end and that the spirit of the Kabbala could now be resurrected. The man was the Ari HaKadosh, Rabbi Yitchak Luria, and from the holy city of Tzfat, he called on the Jewish people to do two things, to return to the land of Israel and to study the Kabbala – the two things the Romans had taken away from the Jewish people.
The Ari began teaching the Zohar, the Kabbalistic legacy of Rashbi, and he instituted Lag B'Omer, the day that marks the passing of Rashbi as a day of celebration, celebrating the victory of Rabbi Shimon's war against the Romans 1500 years later. The Holy Ari saw that victory was at hand — the Jews will return to the land and the true Torah will be studied once again.
Indeed, the victory of the Jewish idea is celebrated on Lag B'Omer. It neatly fits between Israeli Independence Day and Yom Yerushalayim. These three days together all have the same spirit which drives them:
* the liberation of Jewish peoplehood,
* the return to the land, and
* the reemergence of authentic Jewish culture which the Romans sought to suppress.
Our fire burns bright in the night, it shall not be extinguished. They sought to extinguish our flame in Rome as in Auschwitz. But we persevered. On Lag B'Omer we celebrate the victory, and we honor the great Jewish fighters who fought for liberation and lost, who hid away our the precious cargo of our holy Torah, who passed it hidden through generations, and who pined away for the great day when we could once again live on our land as proud Jews.
That great day has come. Chag Sameach!Yishai Fleisher

Primary care physician pay rose 2.9% nationally, survey finds
Primary care physicians nationally reported receiving first-year guaranteed compensation of $180,000 last year, up from $175,000 in 2011, according to an annual survey done by MGMA-ACMPE, the association for executives of medical group practices.
The survey also found that practices often are also offering signing bonuses, paid relocation expenses, loan forgiveness, paid vacations and continuing medical education when recruiting physicians.
Physician practices are preparing for an influx of new patients next year when the number of people with health insurance is expected to increase through the Affordable Care Act and physician recruitment remains highly competitive, Kenneth Hertz of the MGMA Health Care Consulting Group said in a statement.
The MGMA Physician Placement Starting Salary Survey includes information from 5,225 medical providers in 629 organizations. The association's surveys depend on voluntary participation and may not be representative of the industry.

Researchers have been unable to identify a singular cause for psoriasis, but studies suggest psoriasis is an autoimmune disease—it begins in the immune system, the result of your immune system's overreaction to stimuli.
- Autoimmune Disorder: A condition in which your immune system—the part that keeps you healthy—gets confused, attacking and destroying healthy tissue by mistake.
- Triggers: Substances or circumstances that can make psoriasis or psoriatic arthritis worse.
- Flare-ups: Times when psoriasis becomes increasingly worse.
In a properly-functioning immune system, T-cells, a kind of white blood cell, protect the body against infection and disease by identifying and destroying foreign material. With psoriasis, T-cells overreact, mistaking healthy skin cells for dangerous ones, and set off a chain of unneeded immune system responses.
Certain factors may trigger psoriasis in a person who has never had symptoms before. And for those who have psoriasis, these same factors can trigger another bout with the disease.
Triggers include:
- bacterial or viral infections, such as strep throat or the common cold
- diseases that weaken your immune system, such as AIDS or cancer
- emotional stress
- dry air or dry skin (particularly from changes in weather)
- some medicines, such as beta-blockers, lithium, and anti-malaria drugs
- cuts, bites, or burns on the skin
- too little sunlight or too much (sunburn)
- increased alcohol intake
- smoking

I have to read my responses and delete most of them on this type of post. Lets just say I am a strong supporter of the kill bill.
You might tell your friends to start checking the local pawn shops for thier items. In FL pawn shop owners are not responsible for stolen merchandise in thier stores so they do not care where it comes from. If you find your property in a pawn shop you must buy it back. That is not a typo you must pay the owner what he paid for your property and he will not be held accountable for possesion of stolen propery. The cost will not be too high, he/she probobly only gave the junkie $100 for your $2000 Rolex!!!!
The other side of this is, if they can find some of thier property the person that pawned it had to show ID, the shop owner must keep a record of this. So the pawner can be charged with possesion. Now you are thinking what thief would be stupid enough to show thier own ID? Obviously you have never watched the cop shows on TV!!!!!

I recently had my car broken into. They stole a bunch of stuff I shouldn't have had in there....like a nav system and my $400 cell phone. I turned in a report to the police. They wouldn't even come out to the car to verify the theft to the insurance co. My $500 deductable left me with that amt of loss for the break in. Now here is the fun part....I had the phone co send me a bill for the 4 day time up until I reported it stolen. Long story about that delay but there it was. On my bill were 8 numbers that I had not called. I went down to cop central to see what they would do with my new found evidence. I was told that there was nothing that the police could do and the Sgt refused to even accept the phone numbers and he did so as if the numbers were stolen property or radioactive. I asked if I could perform a citizen's arrest and bring the guy in badly bruised. He told me that if I did that I would be arrested on charges of false imprisonment and suspected battery and likely be locked up with the perp till the DA could verify a lot of stuff about me and my burglary. I told the cop I was in contact with one of the numbers called and they gave me the name and address of the guy that called that night and in the conversation with them he said he was calling "from my new phone". They didn't like him either and i thought it might not be much of a challenge to put together a small friendly posse of my friends grandkids that were up to the task with the objective of apprehending the perp where he lived. I added that I had called my phone and the perp had answered at 11 AM, obviously awoken by my call, in a foul temperament, and hung up on me when I asked politely if we could find a way to get my phone returned. Sgt. got a little heated and said I had just described a felony "conspiracy" to him and asked if I knew that planning to commit a felony was an arrestable offence? I asked how it would stack up if it was his word against mine and he got a sly smile and said that everything I had said cop central was being recorded per standard procedure. I answered "so you admit that you are and have been advised that our entire conversation is being recorded"? His smile disappeared in a blink and you could see that lots of stuff was going on behind his eyes. When he focused he said in a clear and steady voice "Sir, please leave immediately". I said I would do so but with great disappointment. Sweet God Almighty do cops EVER hate a smart ash....but they define it differently than me and my Conservative friends.
Our PD is famous for busting Lefty Liberal demonstrators with a vengeance. Everybody gets a thump whether they absolutely need it or not. Last week some jerks from the University of Oregon were downtown protesting the use of herbasides along county roads. Cancer survivors really perturb me too and I recently learned I have cancer. 20 of the dangerous perps and they had a spray bottle with poisen written on it with felt pen. The bearer of the bottle was hammered by the cops and thrown to the ground after the demonstration had peacefully disbursed without any police involvement till that point. While laying face down the perp was shot in the back from a couple feet with a TASER. He didn't like it and the cop repeatedly shocked him for not holding still. The DA dismissed all the charges that day and released the perp. as is what usually happens. We are famous for catch, handle roughly and release....at least according to the press i read, local TV and the police review board. Two days later the cops learned that an independent newsman had filmed the entire episode and they dropped the charges against the cop involved in the TASERing. The DA asked for a copy of the film and the reporter was in the process of compliance when he learned that the DA had refiled charges against the perp and was not investigating the police. Reporter then balked. DA is now trying to lock up the reporter. The DA is like that Sgt that i talked to, when these people learn that there is a record of their activities being made that they do not control and edit they get seriously hissy. Reporter now says that he will release the film after the cops release their police reports of the incident, sorta a verification of the events and a validation of the official sworn report. DA is livid! This is the first time the police have not been able to impound the camera at the scene or bash it to bits in front of the owner. If impounded the camera is found to be without a memory chip when returned months later. Remember the perp that was arrested after the herbicide protest? There were still shots of the scene and there were a dozen cops there after a while and his arrest sheet says that he was in possesion of dangerous chemicals and using them in a manner unlawful. The stills show the sprayer still sitting there after all the cops leave and no shot shows any cop showing even the slightest interest but the report says that the "fluid" was sprayed "at police". They abandoned it at the scene....dangerous chemicals....isn't it a crime to abandon dangerous ch ems in a public place? So many issues.
Some of these police forces give law enforcement a bad name.

Why should you not have had the stuff in there?? Why do 95% of the people have to keep themselves and thier belongings behind locked doors becuse of 5% of the population??? Home alarm systems should be for fires and floods.
When I park my bus, I do not lock the bay doors, I would rather loose what is in the bays than have the doors destroyed!!! Very bizzar way to have to look at life, which possesion is more valuable?
When I was in Cebu city Phillippines the police instituted a new crime fighting tactic which reduced crime by a whopping 60%. It is called vigilanteism, if you are caught commiting a crime and no one is around they shoot you, if they see a career criminal and there are no witnesses they shoot them. Career criminal? should be no such word!!!
The longer I am a member of society the less I like it!!!!

Hiteckredneck, It dont matter what country they came from in my veiw, they were illegal imigrants which is suppose to be against the law. At least in texas you have a right to protect your property, if a intruder enters you can shoot em, but what really blows my mind is when they are illegals. You should see the protests over this joe horn thing, the people that support him you dont see much, theones against him are all over the place. i wonder sometimes if people even know the difference between right and wrong

As you can see from my posts, I am basically in your camp. I was even more upset about some of this crap so I did some reading on the subject a long while ago. Here is some of what I came up with and i hope I get it reasonably straight:
Once upon a time in Illinois, long, long ago a young couple set out for a visit to grandmas place way out in the country. It was the young brides family and she hadn't been for a visit since she was a prepubescent girl. It was true about what they say about women and maps....at least in this one case. They got very lost out in the hinterland. It was winter and there was a foot of new fallen snow blanketing the countryside. Being farm country there were few houses and they didn't see any that had smoke from the wood fires emanating from any chimney. Getting worried about being lost and not having more gas than they needed to get to their destination as farms always had a supply on hand, they stopped at a farm house without even the slightest track in the snow but went to see if people were there and they could summon help or get directions as in those days the telephone operator knew where you were calling from. The house had phone lines running to it. According to eyewitness testimony, the husband trudged to the front door and knocked. The wife decided to try the back door as farm people are pretty trusting as a group. She didn't open the back door but knocked loud enuf for her husband to hear in the front and then it is thought she might have jiggled the locked door. Her husband heard a loud shotgun blast come from inside the house, and fearing the worst, he ran to the rear. His wife never heard the shotgun blast. She lay dead on the rear porch nearly cut in half by the buck shot from a double barreled 10 gauge shotgun that was wired to the back door in a configuration called a "spring gun". The young husband was doubly upset, if that can be imagined, because his young wife was 7 months pregnant with his first son. The state prosecuted the farmer for wrongfull death.
Congress had been aware of the use of spring guns in remote areas and in private urban homes and apartments and so were the state legislatures. After many many years of tragedies nothing was done as Congress never gets involved voluntarily....it is literally drug into the fray kicking and screaming all the way and is literally forced to take action. Such was the case with spring guns. In the congressional hearings it turned out that the states legislatures were loath to attempt any solution as they would be branded "soft on burglars" and voted out so it was up to the fed. Usually in cases like these the Govs and Sens and local legislators are appealing to the fed to "DO SOMETHING". In the Congressional hearings a few unsuspecting supporters showed up to testify. Reps from national and state and local Firefighters were there in number. Seems that they were loosing a lot of firemen to spring guns nationwide as the devices were getting very popular. Some cities had ordinances that forbid a fireman from entering any home that was ablaze if the owner wasn't present to verify that there were no spring guns set or where they were located. A hall closet was a favorite spot for a spring gun but there was a problem with setting a rule that that part of the house couldn't be searched as closets were the favorite hiding place for small children in a house/apartment fire. Sticky wicket, that one.
Police officers were also there to be heard. Seems that in cases of reported home invasions they were being chopped up by spring guns when they entered the wrong residence or answered a mistaken callers plea for assistance on the part of a neighbor. Regardless, lotsa cops were getting hurt and cops hurt like everyone else.
Both cops and firemen know full well that they have chosen a dangerous profession and they accept that and we try to pay them accordingly high wages to compensate and attract good men to the professions. They felt, as a body, that asking them to forfeit their life to a device that was protecting a sack of potatoes or even something of less value was a serious misplaced priority. Cops would not enter any home where their knock was not answered or they could verify that mayhem was going on inside. The rules of entry, nationwide, were moving in that direction.
Courts don't have their own police and they really are limited to one course of action. They refuse, legally, to prosecute. The home owner with a spring gun cannot sue a burglar for anything as, in the eyes of the court, the owner is the "first" felon. The perp gets prosecuted as a burglar only. Any injury award goes to the "victim" of the crime and the perp pays. If the burglar is injured by a spring gun the person that set the device is the first felon and he has to pay damages to any his illegal device injures. Any one! That is the deterant. I magine how sick you would be to have to pay a felon for having injured him while he was robing your house.....the deterant works except for the most hard core liberal that scoff at the law, life and the well being of people sworn to p[protect them and go's their own way.
The all time favorite spring gun wasn't a firearm at all. It was an ax with a hole drilled in the handle that was placed over a nail set to fall on the person/child that made the mistake of opening that door from the inside or outside. There is the case of the NYC shop owner that had been burgled many times. The point of entry was a transom over his back door. He had a wire mesh cage built over the inside of the transom but a crook got in by cutting the wires and slipping in anyway. Outside bars were useless as they had been cut many times. Frustrated beyond reason, the shop owner wired the cage to a 120 volt outlet and plugged it in when he left for the day. A few days after he started doing this he opened his shop to find a dead, crisp, teenager in the cage. 7 to 15 years for manslaughter and more stories of how you can't do anything right today if you are a law abiding citizen.
From the spring gun law came the legal reasoning that you can't take a life to protect property...period. That is once again changed back to you can do that. We were always ably to kill anybody that was threatening us with harm or even another. Had to shoot him in the front, though, if it was personal. That is changed now, at least in some places. Police forces across the country have been cut to the bone to support tax cuts/reduced revenue and I think we all should have greater concern about law enforcement protecting us in any way. We deserve the law enforcement we are willing pay for and we deserve the hard earned money we kept from the tax cuts or failures to adjust for increasing costs of running our government. We deserve it....We earned it....and we should be enjoying it. I have three neighbors that are cops and a police chief cousin(Ret). My uncle was a fireman that died in his retirement from throat cancer he contracted from chewing tobacco. In the "good old days" the firemen chewed during a fire to keep a lot of spit flowing so the heat didn't parch them and it helped to filter the smoke they breathed....cancer! I am an advocate for the police and firemen...anywhere. Its a conservative value.

I'm curious as to what the "kill bill" actually says in Texas. In most states, the "Castle doctrine" is not a general license to kill anyone who is stealing your property. Most "castle doctrine" bills were intended to give owners the benefit of the doubt and protect them from over-zealous prosecutors when they had to make a judgment call on whether or not they should use deadly force. Too many homeowners were being prosecuted because they acted in the moment to the best of their knowledge and ended up being prosecuted by "monday morning quarterbacks" because the perp landed in the yard, or really did not have a weapon, or only had a screwdriver instead of a gun, etc. Most of the "castle doctrine" bills I have read about basically say that a citizen does not have to have concrete knowledge of a lethal threat to defend themselves. The citizen can assume lethal intent if the perp makes any aggressive action. Some "castle doctrine" bills also expand the right to defend one's home to include personal transportation.

In Pennsylvania and California the law said that you could shoot a burglar in your home at night if the lights were out. If you could see the villain in the lighted room you had to see a weapon. You can shoot a knife wielding person if they approach within 8 feet i think it is. Cops are trained that a person can deliver a deadly knife thrust if shot and they are less than 8 feet away. I have personally seen a 6 foot 4 inch black man of large, 250 pound, stature take 4 rapidly fired shots to the the center of his chest. He stopped, looked at his chest and then tried to brush away the bullet holes with his left hand. In his right he held a small cal. revolver. The cops were at the scene in response to a call for help from the perps girlfriend whom he had been beating along with her small children. PCP! The ten shots that hit his chest after he brushed it weighed him down instantly. Cops have a problem determining what is enuf force and that clip sure proved it to me if I ever had any doubts. Home owners have the same problem.
During daylight the perp is called a "house breaker". Can't shoot them unless they have a weapon "OR" can be thought to present a danger to the home owner. Case in point was the Oregon(I think it was) homeowner whose property abutted a trailer park. The park was populated by some motorcycle types that had late and loud parties. A 7 foot hedge separated the homeowners prop from the row of trailers. The home owner fancied cats and the trailer park guys fancied PitBulls. The Pits, always at large, it seemed to many neighbors, killed the mans 4 prized and loved cats. His complaints for some peace and quiet got him heckled and laughed at by the rowdies. On the sore of the Pits they suggested he buy bigger cats and they advised him that the dogs would continue to get "off leash" occasionally and the animal control fines didn't bother them. One day the man yelled at the bikers to hold down the noise and he was answered by peals of laughter and a huge man with beard and tats and dressed in all black pushing through the hedge into his yard. The intruder smiled pleasantly as he started walking across the yard to the homeowner. The homeowner shouted twice for the man to stop advancing and leave the property. Biker ignored the warnings and continued his advance. Home owner retreated to his open door and grabbed his trusty brand new 9 MM and put a bullet in the bikers heart. Grand jury voted to hold the home owner over for trial from which he was acquitted of all charges. Conservative jury! You can protect yourself now and always have been able to do that in this country...anywhere. It has always been prudent to insure that the perps body was inside the house so the DA could decline to press charges.
I had never heard of the "Castle Doctrine". Nice to know the foundation for all the laws I grew up with that made so much sense and seemed to serve everyone so well. Of course, in those days, I could count on having a police officer respond to any call for help. I have always been willing to pay taxes for that protection and peace of mind.....WTF happened? Today i am armed to the teeth, as a collector and shooting enthusiast, and I fear having to use these weapons to protect my self and family.
"You can't mess with Texas" and never forget that. Those Boys had a law that said that if you caught your wife in bed with another man you could shoot the SOB and it was deemed justifiable manslaughter as you were understandably "upset" at the situation through no fault of your own. It was also recognized that you might put a bullet in your erring spouse and that was understandable and forgivable as she had placed herself in the probable line of fire. Now the "Daughters of Texas", an influential group of wives of affluent and named Texans, finally got the Texas legi to take up the barbaric law after 100 years. The result? The legi voted to make it legal for the wife to shoot the husband in similar circumstances. That had, prior to that laws passage, been simple second degree murder. Equity and no serious progress. TEXAS! I like Texans as a group but that state scares me. Good roads though. Good schools too, I hear.
Thanks KT,

I love Texas, both the people and the state. Largely because of their John Wayne approach to living and govt. I prefer a state that would rather a citizen defend themself than become another victim.
This is part of the wisdom that our founding fathers had in designing our country. Different states can have different ways of life while still being part of the greater whole and the people are free to live in the one that best suits them.

It seems that, once again, we are taking this thread a wee bit afield... But I must say that, having lived in Texas (Dallas area) for 10+ years and having married (15 years now) an Abilene (Hodges, actually) girl, I'm not really fond of the place. I would probably consider San Antonio if it was put on me, but beyond that I was not very impressed. I will admit, though, that they do have good CCW and "castle" laws.

I have found Texans to be great people as long as you speak slowly. Sorry, that's a joke. Anyway, most every place has good and bad points. One can like some of it and is welcome to reject the rest. This goes for Texas too. Common sense laws that allow people to protect themselves are on thing I like. However, I find the concept of "Texas Proud" to be a bit archaic (nice word, huh?) and silly. I am not picking on Texas. Heck, I had one of those dumb hats when I was a kid too! It's just another place with its own ups and downs. I also think that shooting people merely because they buy a salsa made in New York City, my original home, is just not fair.

I am very similar to Jack!
My bus is parked on the side of my shop and very hard to see from the road.
My nosiest neighbor would drive by trying to figure out where that bus went, and never came back out.
We also have a neighbor watch the place and also let a few other neighborhood friends know we are on the road, and any activity at our place should involve a call to the sheriff. We reciprocate the watching when there gone too!
Of course, this is where living out in the country has its advantages, not much traffic, and a strange vehicle or person draws attention.
You can only do so much, NOTHING can stop a really determined thief, just slow them down.

One could look into a monitored alarm system. Something trips and they send the police.
