Many families who lost loved ones in December's massacre at a Newtown, Conn., elementary school view the Senate's defeat this past week of the most far-reaching gun control legislation in two decades with disappointment and disgust, yet they pledged to keep fighting for measures to prevent gun violence.
Neil Heslin, Erica Lafferty and Carlee Soto were among the Newtown, Conn., family members who spent a week on Capitol Hill describing how their loved ones died at Sandy Hook Elementary School on Dec. 14. But their stories of horror and heroism were no match for a threat from the National Rifle Association to rate the vote, and concern from Republicans and a small band of rural-state Democrats.
Lafferty, whose mother, school principal Dawn Hochsprung, lunged unarmed at the gunman to stop him from firing the assault weapon, said she was "honestly disgusted that there were so many senators that are doing nothing about the fact that my mom was gunned down in her elementary school, along with five other educators and 20 6- and 7-year-old children."
The Senate rejected on Wednesday a series of gun control bills that would have tightened background checks for buyers, banned assault weapons and high-capacity ammunition magazines, and loosened restrictions on carrying concealed weapons across state lines, the last measure backed by the NRA.
Within hours of the votes, former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords accused senators who opposed the new regulations of "cowardice" in a piece published in the New York Times' op-ed page. Giffords was among 13 people wounded two years ago when a lone gunman opened fire as she met with constituents in a Tucson, Ariz., shopping mall, killing six others. She and her husband, retired astronaut Mark Kelly, had lobbied for the bills' passage.
On CBS' "Face the Nation," moderator Bob Schieffer asked Heslin, Lafferty and Soto Sunday whether the words "cowardice" and "cowards" were appropriate to describe Wednesday's vote.
"I do," said Heslin, who's 6-year-old son Neil Lewis died at Sandy Hook. "I feel they're not standing up for what they should be."
Carlee Soto recounted her sister Victoria's courage to try to save her students, Neil Lewis among them.
"My sister wasn't a coward that day. My sister pushed the kids up against the wall, out of sight," she said, adding, "She protected her kids. Why aren't they protecting us?" referring to the senators who voted against the gun bills.
The families say the gun legislation would have strengthened laws already in effect rather than undercut the Second Amendment, which provides a constitutional right to bear arms.
"It's beyond me how these congressmen cannot stand up and support something that would prevent — or help prevent — something like this from ever occurring again," Heslin said.
"We aren't going to go away. I know I'm not," he added. "We're not going to stop until there are changes that are made."

The Pioneer RCS-9H offers recording and versatile speaker placement in addition to its typical one-box system capabilities.
What's more, it combines the best of both recording worlds by featuring DVD-R/RW and 80GB hard-disk recording. Phew! And despite all this functionality, Pioneer has kept the main unit discrete and simple.
The one of thing the RCS-9H doesn't have is a component video output for the very best picture quality to your flatscreen, but we found pictures via its RGB Scart were more than enough to please us; in fact they are almost irreproachable. Recordings are almost as impressive, and still watchable in the lower-quality recording modes.
Like Pioneer's DCS-323, the RCS-9H incorporates the brand's 3-Spot Surround technology - for 'pseudo' surround when the speakers are placed at the front of the soundstage only. And it provides a big, enjoyable sound, whichever layout you opt for.
This is one of the most flexible setups we've seen at this price point.

With weird western Cowboys & Aliens coming out next week, we couldn't help but wonder: were there any real 19th century weapons that could compare to Daniel Craig's alien energy weapon? As always, never underestimate the awesome craziness of the 19th century.
Of course, none of the weapons we're about to talk about can compare with alien technology. But they represent a number of instances where inventors tried to push the weapons technology of the period into a bold new era...and, more often than not, failed miserably. As you might expect, a whole lot of these came out of the American Civil War...
The Double-Barreled Cannon
By itself, a cannon is pretty devastating. So what if you took two cannons and - get this - put them together? That was the idea of John Gilleland, a Georgia dentist and mechanic - one can only hope he drew more upon his mechanical experience than his dental in building the thing - who designed the double-barreled cannon in 1862.
The cannon combined two six-pound guns, which had been cast in a single piece at the Athens Steam Company. The cannon was designed so that either gun could be fired separately or simultaneously. It was this latter possibility that, if it had worked, would have made Gilleland a genius. His notion was to connect two cannon balls together with a chain and then fire them out of the cannon all at once, which would then cut through the enemy "mow down the enemy somewhat as a scythe cuts wheat."
In April 1862, the cannon was brought out to the Newton Road Bridge in Athens, Georgia for test firing. Richard E. Irby, Jr. describes what happened next:
The test was, to say the least, spectacular if unsuccessful. According to reports one ball left the muzzle before the other and the two balls pursued an erratic circular course plowing up an acre of ground, destroying a corn field and mowing down some saplings before the chain broke. The balls then adopted separate courses, one killing a cow and the other demolishing the chimney on a log cabin. The observers scattered in fear of their lives. Some reports claimed two or three spectators were killed by the firing. The reports of the deaths have not been substantiated. The Watchman promptly reported the test an unqualified success.
As unqualified successes go, Gilleland's double-barreled cannon was a miserable failure. He insisted the Augusta Arsenal take possession of the gun so that they could do further tests, and the arsental commandant Colonel Rains quickly declared the cannon a failure. Gilleland spent the rest of the war trying to convince various Confederate officials that the cannon really did work, but political pressure and, well, reality were too much stacked against him. Today, his cannon can still be found on display in Athens, although it's well worth reading the rest of Irby's account for the longer version of what happened to it after the war ended.
Winans Steam Gun
Still, John Gilleland's efforts seem downright sensible compared to that of the Winans Steam Gun. While the gun is named after Ross Winans, a locomotive builder and inventor from Baltimore who was never known to be constrained by conventional thinking, his involvement in the project didn't go much beyond repairing it in his shop. The credit really belongs to a pair of Ohio inventors, William Joslin and Charles S. Dickinson.
What is today known as the Winans Steam Gun was a giant automatic gun that ran on steam and was attached to an armored carriage. On some level, this was just another machine gun prototype, and there were a lot of those being built at the time, most famously Richard Jordan Gatling's gun, otherwise known as, well, the Gatling gun.
But what set the Steam Gun apart was that it was designed for use on railroad tracks, not to mention its tremendous theoretical power. Harnessing steam, the gun was supposedly capable of firing 200 balls a minute up to two miles. It could also fire a hundred-pound cannonball or fire conventional bullets...at least, those were the claims that Charles Dickinson made when he brought the gun to Baltimore in 1861.
Ross Winans was a vehement state's right advocate, probable Confederate sympathizer, and vociferous critic of what he saw as the federal government's invasion of its own country. His stated motivation in buying and repairing Dickinson's gun, it seems, was to ensure that his beloved Baltimore would be protected from any and all attackers. At a time of national hysteria, the newspapers turned all this into Winans inventing a potential war-ending super-weapon, which explains not only why it now erroneously bears his name today but also why he was soon thereafter arrested for anti-Union activities.
In reality, the Steam Gun never actually had to be put to the test, and it remained for the rest of the war quietly perched above the Baltimore & Ohio Patuxent River Viaduct. In fact, when the Union took active control of Baltimore, Dickinson reportedly removed some key pieces of equipment so that the soldiers would not be able to operate it. It's hard to say how well the Steam Gun worked, if at all, but its curious history at the crossroads of the war means that its actual impact was just about zero.
Bringing Back the Flamethrower
The idea of using fire as a weapon doesn't seem like it requires all that much invention - and yes, flame-based weaponry is generally considered the oldest offensive device known to humanity. Fire was used in various forms from about 1,000 BCE onwards, as early armies figured out how to harness incendiary chemicals that could burn their enemies into submission.
Perhaps the most famous of these was Greek Fire, the legendary secret weapon of the Byzantine Empire that, not unlike modern napalm, ignited upon contact and could not be doused with water alone. The formula for Greek fire was a closely guarded state secret, supposedly passed down only from emperor to emperor until, for reasons unknown, the knowledge was lost. To this day, we still don't know the precise composition, although modern scholars think petroleum was an active ingredient.
As effective as Greek Fire and its counterparts elsewhere were, the emergence of gunpowder in the 15th century made them obsolete, and flamethrowers all but disappeared from the battlefield until the Germans brought them back in World War I. So what does this have to do with the 19th century?
Well, there was a lot of talk about using Greek Fire again in the Civil War, although it's unclear how much it was ever actually used. A Philadelphia inventor named Levi Short is credited with coming up with the new Greek Fire, which is thought to have been a solution of phosphorus in carbon bisulfide, a recipe that likely bore little resemblance to the original Byzantine weapon.
This new Greek Fire had the irritating tendency to explode in storage before it could actually be used against the enemy, so the Union scrapped the idea of using it in the war effort. Still, it left a bit of an impression, as it made its way into the Confederate War poetry of William Gilmore Simms, who contrasted the "Greek faith" of the Union's original stated democratic ideals with the "Greek fire" they were now preparing to unleash in battle.
The Balloons of War
Aerial warfare dates back as much as 2,000 years ago, when very basic balloons were used by the Chinese as a way to relay messages during wartime. And when Montgolfier brothers invented the modern hot air balloon in the late 1700s, its military potential was immediately recognized and, as much as it could be, exploited. The French Aerostatic Corps of 1794 found they could not fly in even slightly bad weather and that they were a constant sitting target, but over the next few decades the technology would improve.
The Civil War saw the first really significant use of balloons in warfare. The Union Army Balloon Corps was the brainchild of Professor Thaddeus S.C. Lowe, a self-educated inventor who was able to convince President Abraham Lincoln of the balloon's possibilities with a personal demonstration. Appointed as Chief Aeronaut in 1861, Lowe spent a tumultuous two years in the position before resigning his post.
During that time, he and his fellow aeronauts used tethered balloons - free balloons would risk moving into enemy territory and being captured as spies - to get aerial views of the battlefield, which he could then use to advise his generals on the best strategy. At one point, a bunch of balloons were kept on and launched from the USS George Washington Parke Custis, making this coal barge the first ever aircraft carrier.
While the idea of spy balloons is pretty cool, the idea of full-fledged war balloons is beyond awesome. Unfortunately, balloons have pretty much been used exclusively for reconnaissance purposes, but that's not necessarily for lack of trying. American ballooning pioneer John Wise proposed dropping gas bombs from balloons during the Mexican-American War, but this never came to fruition.
And, while Thaddeus Lowe's Balloon Corps was formed for strictly surveillance purposes, at least one Civil War era inventor had other ideas. In 1863, Charles Perley of New York City received a patent for an unmanned aerial balloon that could drop bombs on the enemy. The balloon would have used a timer to activate the bomb, but it had serious problems - not least of which the tiny detail that it only worked if the wind was blowing toward the enemy. For that and many, many other reasons, Perley's idea was never really taken seriously, and so the world missed out on the awesome terror that is bomber balloons.
The Turret Rifle
We've generally looked at weapons specifically designed for wartime, which generally meant they were large, one-off devices that were more or less abandoned once the wars in question were over. But that isn't the case for smaller firearms, and one particularly firearm that can be seen throughout the 19th century is the repeating rifle. Since the alternative was to use rifles that could only hold a single round of ammunition, inventors scrambled to come up with ways to cram in multiple rounds. The results were...well, you can see for yourself.
Let's start with turret guns, which took their name from the rotating platforms created for the Civil War ship USS Monitor. However, they predated the ironclad ship by a number of years - their designers gave them far clunkier names like "many-chambered-cylinder fire-arms." The idea was simple enough - the ammunition would be placed facing outward on a wheel, which would then rotate to move each round into position so that it could be fire.
That may not seem so crazy an idea - after all, it's more or less the same principle as a revolver, except the alignment of the ammunition wheel has changed. But take a look at this T.P. Porter turret rifle, which was built in the 1850s, and you might see why these never caught on. Since all the rounds of ammunition were always pointing outward, this meant that at least one round was always pointing toward the person handling the rifle. As you might imagine, this made people just a tiny bit uncomfortable, and so they looked for other options that didn't seem so immediately dangerous.
Amazingly, these rifles that T.P. Porter did end up making were probably quite a bit safer than his original designs, which he described in an 1851 patent. Firearms Curiosa writes:
Mr. Porter's patent was for a highly impractical gun potentially even more dangerous than the manufactured article. The original idea was to have a magazine, containing powder, balls, and caps, fastened over the turret so that movement of a lever would not only cock the hammer and rotate the turret-it would also load the chambers. The lever movement would also place a cap on a nipple in the turret, as well as strip off a previously detonated cap. The magazine was intended to contain enough powder for thirty shots. A spark might reach and explode that powder at the first shot.
The Harmonica Pistol and the Chain Rifle
While the turret gun at least vaguely resembled more popular firearms like the revolver or the repeating rifle, the harmonica pistol was really something else. It's pretty much exactly what its name suggests it is - minus the ability to play music with it, that is - and it represents one of the most unusual ways to cram additional ammunition into an otherwise small firearm.
Not much is known of its history, but we do know a French inventor named J. Jarre filed patents for it between 1859 and 1862. The user simply had to push the magazine from right to left after a round was fired. There's no precise word on why the gun never caught on, but the fact that it must have been nearly impossible to holster the damn thing was probably a factor.
Another awesome but hopelessly obscure weapon was the French Guycot chain rifle. It featured a so-called "endless chain" that could hold 80 rounds of cartridges. For sake of comparison, the first practical repeating rifle, the Henry Rifle, only had a capacity of 16 rounds, a fifth that of the chain rifle. Supposedly, once the chain rifle was fully loaded, it was possible to fire off the rounds as fast as the trigger could be pulled.
Unfortunately, much like the harmonica pistol, all we really know about the chain rifle's origins is that it was French. It was probably built around 1878, as a pair of French people secured a patent in Britain for the gun the following year. Again, we can't be totally sure why these didn't catch on. At a guess, cramming in eighty rounds worth of ammunition was probably just a bit too much for the technology of the time period, though the precise reasons are now lost to history.

After the advent of the Promised Messiah (as), the new era of propagation of Islam has commenced, hence the success of the progress of Jamaat Ahmadiyya has been destined. Many obstacles have already appeared and will continue to appear in the way of this progress as they did in the way of other Godly nations. When such fires are ignited in the path of Jamaat Ahmadiyya by the enemies, God Almighty comes to the rescue and extinguishes those fires, and as a result of passing through these troubled circumstance, a Momin increases in faith. The Holy Quran itself testifies to the face that believers are put through trials and tests, as God Almighty states: "Do men think that they will be left alone because they say, 'We believe,' and that they will not be tested? And We did test those who were before them. So Allah will surely distinguish those who are truthful and He will surely distinguish the liars from the truthful." [29:3-4] It has been a practice that believing people were tried and the same is happening today. It is Divine Law which distinguishes between those who are true to their faith and those who are not. There are different types of trials put forward, but they should all result in the strengthening of the faith of the believing people, whereas those who are already weak in their faith and always looking for opportunities to criticize further increase in their doubts and loss of faith, to the extent that they start questioning the truthfulness of the Jamaat in certain cases. Persecution is one such form of trial which may lead to the weakening of the faith of those who are already fragile. God Almighty brings trials so that the believer becomes closer to God, and thus opens up ways of progress for the Jamaat. The Promised Messiah (as) said that ways of progress are opened for those who succeed in these exams. He also said that the Holy Prophet (saw) eventually met with success because he was put through trials and difficulties in the early part of his mission. Therefore all prophets and their peoples are subjected to persecution, but the key is to remain steadfast in face of adversity. Only then can victory be guaranteed. God is Omnipotent and possesses all attributes in their perfection. We should always keep in mind that God Almighty sent the Promised Messiah (as) in this age and his Jamaat is destined to be victorious. Persecution is not an indication of failure but of success and victory.
If we persist in establishing a close personal relationship with the Jamaat and that of our children, then we will reap the favours of God Almighty Who has destined these blessings in favour of the Jamaat, and InshaAllah, our next generations will witness this victory. Huzoor (aba) directed that although each and every person should always keep in mind their level of Taqwa and how to improve it, he said that those of us who have attained the age of maturity should be concerned about the religious and moral training of the younger ones. This is part of taqwa and also part of the fulfilment of our pledges. It should also be remembered that the progress of the Jamaat is not associated with whether we keep our children linked to the Jamaat or not; indeed it is the benefit of the children to remain associated with Jamaat. It is God Almighty's promise that He shall grant the Jamaat victory, so success lies in remaining associated with it. If we are deficient in the moral upbringing of our children such that they move away from the Jamaat, the progress of the Jamaat will not falter. When the weak ones move away, God Almighty brings more passionate and dedicated people into the Jamaat. Therefore, we must always bear this very important point in mind and remain concerned for the moral training of our children.
In this regard, our own practical model is most important. Huzoor (aba) addressed the Ansarullah, saying that those who have reached the age of 40 and beyond have reached a very mature age, and they should start preparing for their end. In fact, whosoever wishes to progress in their level of Taqwa should keep his end in mind. Ahmadis in general pledge to always make progress in their level of Taqwa, therefore, at this age specifically, one must develop this deep concern. The synopsis of the conditions of bai'at is to firmly believe in the Oneness of Allah, to remain distant from falsehood, to control one's passions, to remain steadfast in daily prayers and offer Tahajjud, to remain occupied in repentance and glorify Allah, to practice devotion and loyalty to God, to remain humble, to follow the Quranic injunctions, to refrain from arrogance, to serve humanity, to be completely obedient to the Promised Messiah (as), etc. All these practices lead to increasing one's level of Taqwa, and this is the minimum standard expected of Ahmadis by the Promised Messiah (as). In this day and age, this was the objective of the advent of the Promised Messiah (as) i.e. to increase the level of Taqwa among men. The Promised Messiah (as) said that God has appointed him to establish taqwa among people and to establish faith in God such that they refrain from committing sin. Such a taqwa should reflect the condition of one's heart and result in gaining nearness of Allah, and should not be developed for fear of punishment. The level of faith of believers is described in the Quranic verse: "And there are some among men who take for themselves objects of worship other than Allah, loving them as they should love Allah. But those who believe are stronger in their love for Allah and if those who transgress could now see the time when they shall see the punishment, they would realize that all power belongs to Allah and that Allah is severe in punishing." (2:166)
When a person develops love for God, he progresses in faith, and this results in progress in taqwa. It is the responsibility of the Ansarullah and Lajna Imaillah to progress in taqwa so that they become models for the future generations, which is directly linked to their spiritual progress. Men and women have been assigned duties, which are important to fulfil and have been outlined in the conditions of bai'at by the Promised Messiah (as).
Huzoor (aba) then shed light on the slogan of "Nahno Ansarullah" i.e. We are the helpers of Allah, and he elaborated upon the two Quranic verses where this slogan appears. The first is the following verse: "And when Jesus perceived their disbelief, he said, 'Who will be my helpers in the cause of Allah?' The disciples answered, 'We are the helpers of Allah. We have believed in Allah. And bear thou witness that we are obedient." (3:53) When the disciples accepted the message, they also recited a prayer which is preserved in the following Quranic verse: "'Our Lord, we believe in that which Thou hast sent down and we follow this Messenger. So write us down among those who bear witness.'" (3:54) Huzoor (aba) said that the obedience to a Prophet means that one must fulfil the pledge taken at his hand, to practice upon his teachings and to have firm faith in the truthfulness of his teachings.
The second verse where the slogan appears is in the following Quranic verse: "O ye who believe! be helpers of Allah, as said Jesus, son of Mary, to his disciples, 'Who are my helpers in the cause of Allah.' The disciples said, 'We are helpers of Allah.' So a party of the children of Israel believed, while a party disbelieved. Then We gave power to those who believed against their enemy, and they became victorious." (61:15) Huzoor (aba) said that it is apparent from this verse, victory is always granted to those who believe. This is destiny. Muslims are given the example of the disciples of Jesus Christ (as) and invited to become helpers of Allah. Similarly, the Messiah of the Ummah of the Holy Prophet (saw) gave the same instructions to his followers, that they should become the helpers of Allah and do not be among those who reject the message. Huzoor (aba) said that it is indeed a blessing of Allah that we are among those who have accepted the message, therefore it is incumbent upon us to obey the true and loyal devotee of the Holy Prophet (saw) so that we can propagate his religion, the religion of Islam in the world. If we progress in our faith and as a result, our children progress in their faith, then we can expect that we will continue to get good Ansar. We must keep our pledge always in our minds so that we can become the best of Ansar. The disciples of Jesus Christ diminished in their faiths over a few generations and their belief in Oneness of God decreased to the point where it vanished all together and this humble prophet of God was converted into God Himself. The Promised Messiah (as) however came to re-establish the Oneness of God and he said that man should bring about that spiritual revolution in him in order to revive the true purpose of creation, which is to worship God. God revealed His message to the Holy Prophet (saw) which was revived by the Promised Messiah (as) in the latter days, and now, we must carry this message to the corners of the globe and inculcate the same passion in our children, such that the helpers of Allah keep increasing till Islam prevails with splendour.
Huzoor (aba) drew the attention towards the first condition of bai'at which says that we must abstain from Shirk (to associate partners with God). The first Messiah (as) was not able to establish this Unity of God and only a few generations that passed after him were led to committing Shirk (i.e. they started to move away from the concept of Unity of God). This is because they could not implement the teachings of the Messiah in their lives, their faith weakened, their relationship with God decreased and they turned their eye to worldly gains. The followers of the Messiah of the latter days however must not let their personal relationship with God weaken, nor should they let the relationship of their children with God weaken, otherwise, just like the followers of the first Messiah, their future generations will also be lost to associating partners with Allah. Non-Ahmadi Muslims are already trapped in this vicious activity of visiting the tombs and graves of saints and holy men. The Promised Messiah (as) revived the pristine teachings of Islam and directed the Muslims to fulfil their obligations to their fellow human beings and to make progress in righteous and virtuous morals.
Huzoor(aba) then drew the attention towards the offering of five daily prayers, which is also part of the conditions of bai'at. He said that God has taught us the prayer: "Thee alone do we worship" (1:5) indicating the importance of worship, but at the same time, God has also taught the other part of the prayer: "and Thee alone do we implore for help." (1:5) This was done so that man bows before God and humbly asks for His Divine assistance in carrying out this important obligation of worshiping Him. The Quran also advises the Muslims to guard their prayer as in the following verse: "Watch over Prayers, and the middle Prayer, and stand before Allah submissively." (2:239) Therefore it is the duty of a believer to give special attention to this injunction, so that their personal progress in faith continues to occur and that of their children as well. In order to make children regular in prayers, this habit should be inculcated right from their childhood, not when they become adolescents because then it is already too late. Huzoor (aba) also added that in some cases, the man of the house is regular in offering prayers, but his attitude towards his wife and children is so aggressive, that the family members are put off from prayers. Salat should be such that it increases man in virtues. Huzoor (aba) also said that there are certain cases among men as old as 40 years (and above) who do not offer salat. If this is the case, then how can they expect their children to be regular in offering salat or even to remain associated with the Jamaat. If we look at the lives of the martyrs, the most prominent aspect of their lives is that they were deeply occupied in worship and remembrance of God, and they were deeply concerned about the standards of worship of their children and their association with Jamaat.
Huzoor (aba) then mentioned the importance of offering nawafil (supererogatory prayers) and tahajjud prayers. Ansarullah should be offering tahajjud prayers in larger number. Huzoor (aba) said that we must make an attempt to make such sacrifices in the way of God and make every effort to propagate the religion of Islam. The Promised Messiah (as) has said that supplication (dua) is the vessel to propagate Islam, therefore, special attention should be diverted to supplicate with great zeal, and attention should also be diverted in making continuous and steadfast supplications versus sporadic and random efforts.
Huzoor (aba) said that the Promised Messiah (as) has also drawn the attention of his followers to learn the Quran, therefore we must develop an association with this Holy Book and not only recite it daily but also try to learn its meaning and understand it. If we make the effort to improve our own knowledge of the Quran, our children will also develop a passion to do the same.
Huzoor (aba) said that the conditions of bai'at set a minimum standard for all the followers of the Jamaat in the eyes of the Promised Messiah (as). Ansarullah should try to achieve a higher standard. Lajna Imaillah are equally responsible if not more; the moral training of the children lies in their hands ever since the birth of the child. If the mothers are religiously educated, the chances are that they will raise children with spiritual inclination. Every woman should aspire to attain a high standard in spirituality and henceforth, the next generations will develop a deep connection with God. Huzoor (aba) said that the Word of God makes no distinction between men and women; whosoever will follow the teachings will gain nearness to God. Huzoor (aba) also instructed that we should not only pray for ourselves, but we should also pray for each other and pray for the next generations. May Allah enable us to fulfil our pledges and become obedient and loyal devotees of the Promised Messiah (as). Huzoor (aba) read out an extract from the writings of the Promised Messiah (as) which stresses the importance of supplication, which is a weapon against sin and all evils.

A traditional Pueblo jewelry adornment, a jacla is two loops of heishi that were originally earrings and sometimes fastened to the bottom of a stone necklace as a pendant-like attachment.
Jacla is Navajo for "ear string". The Navajo spelling is the most commonly used version of the word. Jocla is also common but jackla is a phonetic mis-spelling. Although jaclas are attributed to the Rio Grande Pueblo Indians, they were traded with other tribes so have become associated with the Navajo as well. They are seen in vintage photos being worn by members of all southwest tribes, both men and women.
In the oldest style necklaces, the jacla is a pair of loop earrings tied onto the necklace.
The two loops would be removed from the necklace and used as earrings. This is how the jacla originated. This necklace is likely from 1910-1920.
I can picture a pre-European-contact Rio Grande Puebloan taking his or her jewelry off and storing it that way. And sometimes when not wanting to wear earrings, just leaving the jacla on the necklace as a pendant.
The jacla might match the necklace it is attached to or be of contrasting heishi. Most jaclas have tabular pieces in the bottom center that are called "corn". They are most often made from white or orange (spiny oyster) shell or coral. According to Mark Bahti, author of Collecting Southwestern Native American jewelery, jaclas with spiny oyster shell corn are rarely seen and highly prized by many Indians.
The tips of the jacla loops are traditionally finished off with coral, a contrasting shell or trade beads, often red.
In the early 20th century, jaclas started to be incorporated into part of the necklace, so this necklace would have likely been made after 1920, likely in the 50s.
Contemporary artists use the jacla design in many ways such as this block turquoise jacla necklace with spiny oyster corn.
And here's one in very fine heishi from Santo Domingo artist Paul Tenorio
Loop earrings are basically a miniature version of a jacla – they are made with and without corn.

Nevada is officially the first state to make self-driving cars (as made famous by Google) a legal presence on roads.
There are conditions, of course, but the director of the Nevada's Department of Motor Vehicles ushered in the announcement with a hopeful, "Nevada is the first state to embrace what is surely the future of automobiles."
It's no secret that Google has been courting Nevada for this very piece of legislation for a while now. Like Texas and a lot of southwestern states, Nevada has long stretches of road that aren't heavily populated, and that makes it an ideal early testing ground for self-driving vehicles.
Of course, we aren't going to see cars just driving all over the place on their own. Right now, Nevada law allows for self-driving vehicles to be tested on the state's roads, including creating an official driver's license for automated automobiles. Companies that want to do so will have to raise a bond of $1 million to $3 million, and two humans have to be in the vehicle at all times. This last provision is planning for the worst: if the vehicle goes out of control, hopefully one of the two passengers will be able to take the wheel.
There are a few other provisions, too. From PCWorld's Sarah Jacobsson Purewal:
Cars also have to be equipped with data collectors (like an airplane black box), and will have red license plates. If the cars are approved for public the cars will have green license plates (regular Nevada license plates are grayish-blue). If cars are approved, a person can operate the vehicle "without being physically present," according to one provision. But the person operating the vehicle — present or not — will be held responsible for what the car does.
So, sorry, Nevada folks — you're still going to have to drive yourself around. That said, it's definitely a big first step for Google (the company "worked closely," with Nevada legislators, according to Purewal).
With large-scale testing beginning today, we may not be too far off from self-driving cars fully realized on roads some tomorrow soon. If not in crowded cities, then maybe one day, just maybe, you could rent yourself a self-driving car to take you from Las Vegas to, say, Los Angeles, while you shake off all the things you're famously leaving there for good.

There's no slowing down for Charlie Sheen: Hours after cops searched his home for weapons, he and his estranged-wife reached a deal for custody of their twin boys and he announced he will play a pair of live shows next month.
The shows, April 2 in Detroit and one night later in Chicago, are being billed as "Charlie Sheen LIVE: My Violent Torpedo of Truth." The announcement was made on Ticketmaster, where ticket prices ranged from $35 to $80. It was unclear exactly what the show might consist of.
"Will there be surprises?" Sheen wrote on his own Ticketmaster page. "Will there be guests? Will there be mayhem? Will you ask questions? Will you laugh? Will you scream? Will you know the truth?
Local news from across Southern California
"This IS where you will hear the REAL story from the Warlock. Bring it. I dare you to keep up with me."
The bizarre anouncement came hours after Sheen and Brooke Mueller announced a custody deal for sons Max and Bob. That agreement came on the heels of a search by LAPD of his home for weapons, which could have violated a temporary restraining order filed by Mueller.
According to a report from Today, Sheen and Mueller's agreement settles their custody battle and ends her pursuit of a lenghty restraining order.
No details were released, but attorneys for both sides issued a statement claiming the embattled couple had ""reached an agreement that resolves their differences."
The former "Two and Half Men" star tweeted "#fastball: all good here on homefront. all reports false. I'll explain more very soon. #Dogspeed c," as police arrived on scene.
He later wrote, "#fastballl the LAPD were AWESOME. Absolute pros! they can protect and serve this Warlock anytime!!! c."
Officer Norma Eisenman of the LAPD confirmed to KNBC in Los Angeles that police did visit Sheen's home, but did not classify it as a "raid." She did say, however, that officers were investigating the possible violation of a temporary restraining order that was filed against Sheen by Mueller last week. The court order prohibits Sheen from possessing weapons and it had come to the attention of the police that there were registered firearms in Sheen's name, Eisenman said.

Who isn't seduced by the idea of making a little extra money on the side? But inspectors say beware. Those ads promising easy money for simply stuffing envelopes are most times, not what they appear to be.
"On the website and on the radio what they heard is they would be stuffing envelopes and being paid up to $5,000 a week," said US Postal Inspector Daryl Greenberg.
Sounds like a good deal, right? More than 230 people in one case alone were lured in by this bogus job offer.
"You had very young victims out of high school and you had very elderly victims. You had victims who were destitute," said Greenberg.
Here is how to protect yourself from this kind of scam: Never give your personal information to a person or company you don't know. Check out the company with the Federal Trade Commission, Better Business Bureau or State Attorney General before you send any money. And, be skeptical.
"I have never found a legitimate envelope-stuffing project that actually panned out the way people believe," said Greenberg.
Postal inspectors say be on the lookout for another new scam. You're asked to receive, repackage and then mail merchandise to a foreign address. The contents are usually paid for with stolen credit cards. IF you repackage and mail it, you become part of a fencing operation and could face criminal charges.

Fantastic.

These mesa cloths are sourced from the Pagos Qero medicine people high up in the Andes of Peru. Hand Woven from naturally dyed sheep wool by the Q'ero community these cloths are made with great symbology, meaning and intent. The cloths are used in a variety of ways, for rituals and ceremonies including holding new-born's safe as they enter this world holding them as they transition.......To becoming great altars holding an individuals power and gifts as they transform going around the medicine wheel. Personal power objects are held as the representation of ones transformation and placed in the cloth which is usually accompanies by an inner cloth, either a wachala or Unkuna which are local names for this depending on the region you are from.
Each family and region having a unique way and style of weaving, with these cloths in particular are made with great meaning. Always being made in two half's, which represents the duality, or left and right, masculine and the feminine, duality, the coming together are just some of these......The colours and overall make up are unique and individual to the Qero with the symbols and layout being different to family to family. For example sometimes the black known as the "pa and cha" or pachamama can be much wider to add a grounding influence while some cloths have very narrow black areas and lots of Inti, the sun the masculine symbols which make it a very busy but powerful cloth. For some they need "the waters" to temper there fires within and others need to create more fire....Each cloth and the way it is called to you is very unique when you start looking at its symbology!

This week's issue of Nature features a couple of pieces focusing on biodiversity through a political or economic lens. Although the economic benefits and services provided by species-level diversity has been well illustrated, in "Population diversity and the portfolio effect in an exploited species", Schindler et al. (Nature, 465, 609-612) new evidence that at even finer divisions than the species, diversity plays an important role. In this case, they find that genetic diversity at the population level is an additional and significant contributor to ecosystem stability. Schindler et al. examine the effects of hundreds of locally-adapted populations of sockeye salmon on the valuable salmon fishery in the Bristol Bay area of Alaska. They suggest that the portfolio effect (or the robustness of biodiversity to variable conditions – like a diverse financial portfolio) can function at the population level as well as the species level. High levels of intra-specific diversity can produce temporal variation among populations in response to environmental variability, resulting in catches that are more stable year-to-year, and making fishery closures less likely, a clear economic benefit.
Populations are declining at an even faster rate than species themselves: the more we understand the importance of conserving diversity at multiple biological scales (ecosystem, species, population, even the individual?), the more complicated and onerous the task of conserving diversity becomes.
In the same issue of Nature is an editorial on the possibility of an IPCC-like panel for biodiversity. At this very moment (give or take a few time zones), government representatives from all over the world are deciding whether or not to create this panel. So far, they have a catchy name for it, the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES), which hopefully hasn't been written in stone. But they also have a strong recognition of the inextricable links between biodiversity, ecosystem services and human wellbeing – links that are highlighted in the Schindler et al. article. Furthermore, an explicit goal of IPBES is to address the currently tangled state of biodiversity organizations, conventions and programs by forming a unified front of sound biodiversity policy and science. The Convention on Biological Diversity had set a target of halting biodiversity loss by 2010 and we have failed spectacularly. Is IPBES the solution?
Wanted: an IPCC for biodiversity. Nature, 465, 525-525
