Clients paid salary and denied overtime pay
Lear Werts represented former Mitek employee - and a class of those similarly situated to him — in their claims against Mitek and its CEO/President, Loyd Ivey. The case was pending in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri. The judge assigned to the case was the Honorable Catherine D. Perry. The case has been resolved to the satisfaction of all parties.
The case was based on the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and sought compensation for unpaid overtime. The lawsuit alleged that employees were improperly paid a salary without overtime compensation in work weeks when so-called "exempt" work was not the employee's primary duty. Specifically, the lawsuit alleged that the class members were required to perform non-exempt promotional work and/or manual labor and were not paid overtime for hours worked over 40 in a given week.

The Vatican has announced that Pope Benedict is resigning after watching video of Howard taking Beth's picture in the snow.
The Vatican has announced that Pope Benedict is resigning after watching video of Howard taking Beth's picture in the snow.
No. I don't want to
In my heart I know I'm funny
No reason for the resignation. Has to be the snow video. Beth in that bikini frolicking like a retard made him not wanna be celibate anymore.
Seriously...when the heck does a pope resign? I thought they just die in office. What's up?
The last vestiges of the Holy Roman Empire. Meh, who cares..guy was like a creepy polish version of Dracula. Glad we don't believe in any of these silly primitive superstitions in the 23rd century..
I just hope that the next Pope gives special dispensation to banish Beth to Purgatory.
When you see white smoke arise from the Sistine Chapel it signals that Howard is back from vacation.
On February 5, a documentary debuted on HBO, Mea Maxima Culpa: Silence in the House of God. The film documents the long, sordid history of the Catholic Church in not only failing to deal with the widespread problem of pedophile priests, but in the systematic cover-up of these horrific crimes. Other films and books have dealt with pedophilia in the Church, but what is shocking here is the unraveling of the culpability that goes all the way to the top to the Vatican and Pope Benedict XVI himself (formerly Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger to whom all abuse charges were funneled).
So much for being Christ's emissary when you can reject the cup that has been placed before your lips. Just goes to show its only some manmade bureaucratic bullshit

Finish: | Polished |
Backing: | Clip |
Hanging Length: | 3/4 inch |
Stone 1: | Tourmaline TOURMALINE: the "gemstone of the rainbow" comes in a dizzying array of colors and is usually created from more than a dozen elements, making it perfect for jewelry. The most popular tourmaline is deep pink, and a true favorite is watermelon... a gem of green and pink together. (Color: Green, Quantity: 2, Shape: Rectangular, Weight: 2.30 ct. t.w.) |
Stone 2: | Amethyst AMETHYST: A natural variety of quartz, amethyst ranges in color from deep purple to pale lavender, and even to warm greens. Amethyst has been used during meditation to provide a sense of spiritual balance. Amethyst is the birthstone of February. (Color: Purple, Quantity: 2, Shape: Rectangular, Weight: 2.50 ct. t.w.) |
Stone 3: | Citrine CITRINE: A member of the quartz family, citrine symbolizes truth and integrity. Its name is derived from the French word citron meaning lemon. This sunny stone comes in colors from lemon yellow to amber brown, with its coloring agent attributed to iron. Citrine is the birthstone for November. (Color: Yellow, Quantity: 2, Shape: Rectangular, Weight: 2.50 ct. t.w.) |
Stone 4: | Garnet GARNET: the birthstone of January. One glance at the deep red seeds nestled inside of a pomegranate explains why the word "garnet" comes from the Latin word "granatus," meaning "grain" or "seed." This name was given to the garnet because of its close resemblance to the succulent seed. (Color: Burgundy, Quantity: 2, Shape: Rectangular, Weight: 2.90 ct. t.w.) |

Stretch Marks(Striae)DefinitionStretch marks are red, whitish, or purple streaks in the skin. Stretch marks are most often associated with pregnancy or other periods of rapid weight gain. They may also be associated with conditions such as Cushing's syndrome, adrenal gland disease, or Marfan syndrome. Stretch marks usually become less noticeable over time. Certain treatments may also help decrease their appearance. CausesStretch marks occur when skin is stretched. The elastic fibers just below the skin tear. This tear leaves streaks of indented skin. The stretch marks may appear red or purple and eventually turn whitish in color. The elastic fibers are also weakened by hormones such as cortisone. The hormones are present during pregnancy, with rapid weight gain, or certain medical conditions. Certain medications may also raise your cortisone. Pregnant Woman Stretch marks are common in pregnancy. Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc. Risk FactorsFactors that may increase your chance of stretch marks include:
SymptomsStretch marks are red or purple streaks that are slightly indented. They are most common on the stomach, thighs, buttocks, and breasts but may also occur in other areas. The stretched skin may also be dry or itchy. DiagnosisYour doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. If the cause of stretch marks is not obvious your doctor may look for other causes. These tests may include:
TreatmentMost stretch marks fade over time without treatment. Some people may want faster results or deeper fading of stretch marks. In general, the current treatments are limited and unsatisfactory. Talk with your doctor about the best treatment plan for you. Factors that will affect your treatment options include:
Treatment options include the following: MedicinesTretinoin cream (Retin-A, Renova) may help to lessen the appearance of stretch marks. It is most effective on stretch marks that are less than six weeks old and still red or pink in color. It should not be used during pregnancy. Laser TherapyLaser therapy can stimulate the growth of collagen and elastin. It may decrease the appearance of stretch marks.
PreventionThere are no proven methods for preventing stretch marks. Staying within recommended weight gain guidelines during pregnancy may help. If you are not pregnant, keeping your weight at normal levels is also a good idea. Lotions have not been proven to prevent stretch marks. They may be helpful to moisturize and soothe itchiness.

Attic Space Tips
By: Amanda Campbell
Updated: March 3, 2011
An attic can provide a wealth of storage space if it is properly prepared.
Installing a floor in an attic will make it a safe and useful space. It is highly recommended that you work n your attic in the spring, fall, or winter. Summers attic temperatures can exceed 140 degrees Fahrenheit. If you must work in your attic in the summer drink plenty of water and take frequent cooling breaks.
Tape measure
StorageBord 24�x48� boards (or plywood equivalent)
Circular saw or Jigsaw
Electric drill
Counter-sinking drill bit
Screwdriver (Electric screwgun recommended)
Rubber mallet
1 5/8 inch screws (2 per board)
Measure the width and length of the area you wish to floor. Multiply the figures together to determine square footage. (A 20�x10� space=200 square feet.)
Determine how many Storagebords (24x48-inches= 8 square feet) you will need. Example: 200� square divided by 8 = 25 boards needed.
Assess your attic for wiring, plumbing, or gas lines. It would be a violation of building codes to simply lay boards on top of the lines. You will need to cut notches in the joists or boards to accommodate any lines.
Lay boards across joists. In most homes the construction standard sets joists at 16 inches �on center�. Align the board so that the ends run from the middle of one joist to the middle of another.
Drill a pilot hole using a countersink bit. This will allow you to flush mount the screws and prevent boxes or other stored items from catching on protruding screws. Using screws will allow for easy removal or replacement should the need arise.
Continue drilling and fastening each board as you proceed.
Use the rubber mallet or prybar to help align any stubborn boards.
Use the saw(s) to make any custom cuts needed to accommodate your attic space.
Once finished, obtain assistance moving objects into the attic. Carrying bulky or heavy items up a ladder alone can be extremely dangerous.

I've bn looking for this!

About Me First Time Parent
Comments about One Step Ahead Sun Smarties Girl's Swim Hat:
I have been looking for a material swim cap for my daughter's delicate hair/head. Latex and silicone swim caps are tight and uncomfortable and snag her hair. This cap is well constructed, light, easy to put on and she doesn't even mind using it. Not to mention, it looks really cute. So happy I found it.
Sooo cute!!

About Me Grandparent
Soooo cute! Looks adorable on. Is well made, soft, and comfortable. This is one sun hat that I'm sure will stay on. Easily adjusted with the back tie. Has also washed well. Colors are great.
Simply darling swim hat problem solver
By Happy Mommy
from Livingston, NJ
About Me Parent of Two or More Children
My daughters take weekly swim classes and their hair just doesn't stay in clips or ponytail holders...plus I see other girls with goggles and their delicate hair just gets pulled out and tugged. When my daughters' hair is in their eyes, it definitely distracts them. Swim caps are a terrific solution...reduces the chemicals in their hair, keeps their hair tangle-free and out of their eyes. Thanks for the cute flower and the tie in the back: it makes it a little more adjustable and a lot more stylish than the regular lycra swim caps!
Great product
By Mom
from New Jersey
Smart idea. I believe that little heads need to be protected from sun rays in the water as well. My 4 year old daughter does not mind wearing this cute bandana-swim hat at all. It stays put during swimming, dries out fast and she looks absolutely adorable in it.
Adorable Hat
By Ms GG
from Harvey, LA
I purchased this swimming cap for my grand-daughter to take swimming lessons in. She just loves it. She prances around in it, and will not go to her swimming lessons without it. It fits very secure on her head and stays on during her whole swimming lesson. I would definitely purchase another one. Good quality fabric also.
She LOVES her pirate...I mean swim cap!
By Marleigh's Mom
from Athens, Ga
About Me Parent of Multiples (Twins etc)
This is EXCELLENT for our emerging swimmer! She has long hair (which she does not want cut)and does not like wearing a ponytail in the water. She gets frustrated/panicky when she puts her face in the water to swim but her hair is covering her face when she picks her head up. This was an EXCELLENT compromise/solution for us AND she loves that it makes her look like a girl-pirate...arrrgh matey! I also love that I don't have to put more sunscreen on her head to keep her fair skin protected. It is a win win for ALL of us! PLEASE continue to carry this product and if possible offer more options to coordinate with all swimsuits you offer. We are a forever customer!
Very effective
By Ed in TN
from Gallatin, TN
My daughter will wear this swim cap which is very unusual since she normally doesn't like hats or caps. It is very effective in keeping her hair out of eyes.
Really cute
By jo
from Dallas, TX
I bought this for my 2.5 yr old daughter for a little extra protection from the sun while swimming and from the sand if we get to go to the beach. I usually corn row her hair for swimming/beach activities, but I feel the need to put sunscreen on her parts, which can be damaging and drying to her hair/scalp. I think this hat is going to be a good solution. It's adorable, and I love that it ties in the back, making very adjustable. It's a little big for her now, but should be able to fit lots of different hair styles under it. I think she'll be able to wear to next year too. Love the style, love the SPF, love the adjustable tie in the back...wish it came in more color options.
Great Cap!
By Nicole B
from Astoria, NY
Bought this for my daughter who attends swim classes. The material is easy to stretch over her head and does not latch on to her hair, making it painless to put on and take off.Machine washable!!Highly recommend!
Great hat, very cute
By jenmush
from Mount Holly, NJ
Purchased for my fair hair and skinned 4 year old daughter for beach or pool use. Used in Florida 2x in Sarasota. Worked great, no head burns, fit was kind of snug but not uncomfortable she wore it the whole time. I would buy again. Need the adult version.
Better than bathing cap
By Jane
from Yorktown, va
Granddaughter is two years old has very thin hair and in order to protect head from the sun this is GREAT. Its easy to put on her and looks darling. I know this summer at the pool there will be many people inquiring about this for their child. It does not have to be used as a swim cap either. I highly recommend it. I am going to order one for my other grandchild who is 5 as I know she will love it too.

Love this hat!
By Jenny

My 2.5 year old daughter loves this hat, I was able to put it on her and she never complained! She has alopecia (hair loss) and I had no idea how I was going to keep her head protected in the sun! We spent an entire day at the pool while on vacation, and she never took it off. This hat is a life saver! and adorable on top of that! :)

Patterson (1-4) trailed 23-21 at the half, and Jeanerette extended its lead after three quarters to 37-31.
While the 'Jills outscored Jeanerette 12-11 in the fourth quarter, it wasn't enough.

Other top Patterson contributors included Jazmin Evans, eight points, two steals and a rebound; Alex Benjamin, six points, two rebounds and two steals; Gaylen Grogan, five points and four rebounds; and Tala Johnson, four points, six rebounds and a steal.
While Patterson was scheduled to host Breaux Bridge today, Patterson coach LaGenia Darnell said that game has been canceled and will not be made up. Patterson will return to action Wednesday when it plays Hanson in the Hanson tournament.

A Felony to File Gun Laws? Is Missouri a Laughingstock?
Countless publications have pointed at legislation filed by pro-gun-ownership state Rep. Mike Leara as an example of how polarized the debate is.
Republican Missouri state Rep. Mike Leara of Sunset Hills launched a wave of blog posts and news articles this week (including an earlier article on Patch) when he introduced legislation that, if passed, would criminalize the act of introducing anti-gun legislation.
That's right: Proposing a law could get a member of the General Assembly thrown in the slammer.
Of course, it won't pass. Even he says so, in a statement widely repeated around the Internet in which he calls the proposed law a "statement in defense of the Second Amendment rights of all Missourians."
His proposal would make it a class D felony, punishable by up to four years in prison, to introduce legislation that restricts gun ownership.
That has made a list by Politico of some of the "bizarre" bills that have been introduced in state legislatures around the country — proposals that include allowing Montana state police to license residents to salvage roadkill meat; and allowing miniature horses to serve as service animals in Arizona.
Reaction from articles on the web seems to run from Politico's "bizarre" to incredulous from The Atlantic to fairly down-the-middle from Fox News, which also notes that any gun-control legislation is likely DOA in Missouri's heavily Republican General Assembly.
Now, we wouldn't dare suggest that the floor of the state legislature should restrict open debate and dialogue on issues mundane or extraordinary.
But is there a line? Is this an example of a "waste of time" as someone suggested in the Politico article? Does it make Missouri look like a backwater hick state? Or is it a worthwhile stand on an issue that's very important to millions of gun owners?
7:47 am on Sunday, February 24, 2013
Looks like it was done to show and mirror the extreme views of the other side of the debate. The far left want to make it a crime to posses any type of firearm. This was apparently an attempt to show how ridiculous both arguments are on the extreme sides and ends. Leara admitted that in one of his interviews.

This bill, is in response to HB 545, introduced by Democrats Ellinger (Sponsor), Schupp, MCNEIL and Walton. HB 545 is a blatant violation of the US and State Constitutions in that it calls for outright confiscation by the State of Missouri of privately owned firearms. It is the product of a radical leftist group and history has witnessed this in Nazi Germany and all communist dictatorships. The bill's sponsors have violated their oath of office to uphold the Constitution of the United States and Missouri. As such they should removed from office. In a state where the requirement of a picture ID to vote is rejected (by these same people) as a Constitutional violation, this absurdity and outright attempt to subvert the Bill of Rights cannot be tolerated if we are to remain free.
12:19 pm on Sunday, February 24, 2013
Wow--talk about absurd--you guys are part of the reason we are a laughable state!!! NO ONE WANTS TO TAKE AWAY YOUR RIGHT TO OWN GUNS!!!!!! The left, I believe wisely, wants to keep military type weapons out of the hands of unstable criminals. Get a grip people--the NRA has you scared to death by their fear mongering. The NRA is a lobbyist group to make sure the gun industry thrives. To them it's only about MONEY!!!!
Michael Davis
1:53 pm on Sunday, February 24, 2013
Ann you need to educate yourself about what you are talking about.
1. Yes they are trying to take away guns. See quote from sen. feinstein, Gov. cuomo, laws proposed in NY, MO, CA and other places.
2. They so-called assault weapons are not military type weapons. They merely look like them.
3. The NRA is a lobbyist group sure. They lobby for their 4 million gun owning members.
Jason B
11:57 pm on Monday, February 25, 2013
The bill proposed by Ellinger is what is absurd. Leara knew his bill was whacky when he submitted it. He did it to show how silly the HB 545 by Rory Ellinger is. How unconstitutional do ya think that sucker is? I believe you are scared of a type of gun that looks scary and you arent using your head. HB 545 would keep guns out of the hands of EVERYONE. Regulating us down to a double barrel shotgun DOES fly in the face of the 2nd Amendment. Leaving us regulated down to single shot 22 DOES fly in the face of the founders intent. Do me a favor please. I mean this with all due respect. Please go read up up in our founders own words as to WHY the citizens of this nation are to be armed. The NRA doesnt rule me and i do my research independent of what they say. You wanna get the guns out of the hands of criminals? Punish them harshly and to the fullest extent of the law when a crime is committed with a gun. I promise you there will still be criminals but if you are looking at hard time for life or death for robbing someone with a gun when you could do 3 years if you didnt use one, look and see how many criminals wont be armed. How about we stop our governement from supplying the criminals with guns in the first place. Fast and Furious, Behghazi are two examples and there are many more we dont know about Im sure and have been many in the past.
Tom Maher
12:26 am on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
Oh, Jason B - in another post you claim that the writers of the amendment meant for citizens to have arms equal to those of an evil gub'ment's army's; so...since all that was around in those days were single-shot rifles and pistols - what would be a reason to interpret that the writers meant weapons capable of multiple shots with a single loading?
Unless - unless - it was interpreted by some of them thar "activist judges?" Ya think?
How can you bleat that single-shot rifles "fly in the face of the founders [sic] intent?"
Surely even you recognize that they were ignorant of multi-shot weapons - right? I thought not...
Jason B
1:21 am on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
Tom your condescending attitude does you no favors. No one is bleating except you. Ill refrain from name calling.
To answer your question
Tench Coxe: "Congress have no power to disarm the militia. Their swords, and every other terrible implement of the soldier, are the birth-right of an American… [T]he unlimited power of the sword is not in the hands of either the federal or state governments, but, where I trust in God it will ever remain, in the hands of the people.", Pennsylvania Gazette, Feb. 20, 1788.
At the time they were single shots but the sentiment has not changed. Ill not reply further to any of your venom. I happen to live in a part of the state that cherishes our freedom and yeah I do support SB-150 and similar bills. Thank God we can elect our own representation. Im proud to say up until this year Brian Munzlinger was my state senator. Yeah he is not one you would vote for Im sure but despite what you would like to believe the majority of us outside your urban cesspool dont agree with you.
Tom Maher
1:50 am on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
Oh, Anonymous Jason B - Tench Coxe was writing merely an OPINION; his words were not law. That it was written by him hardly makes it anything more than an opinion. Ergo, his words have no effect as anything save an attempt to justify something else.
As to single-shot weapons, should you and the No Real Acumen Klub hew to the true meaning of the amendment? After all, they had only those weapons which were current at the time; since they knew not of multiple-shot weapons, why should the latter be not merely an interpretation of their thoughts? Ain't their ORIGINAL thoughts sacrosanct? Did the amendment say something to the effect of "...or whatever weapon may be devised in the future"? Did I miss that?
How do you know I do not live in a similar rural cesspool as do you?
Michael Davis
5:10 pm on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
Tom Maher you say "Surely even you recognize that they were ignorant of multi-shot weapons - right?"
This mult shot air rifle was in use back then. If you think none of the Founding Fathers (who numbered some of the brightest and most educated people in the nation) even knew of it, why did they not say "the right to keep and bear muskets shall not be infringed"? They used a generic term "Arms" because they knew from history that technology changes over time and did not want to limit the right.
Tom Maher
12:15 am on Wednesday, February 27, 2013
Michael Davis - you are being unrealistic when you mention the Girandoni. It was not invented until 1779 - the Constitution came nearly 10 years later.
The Girandoni was adopted by only one amy, the Austrian, in 1800. I'd suggest you read about it to learn why only one army in the world adopted it.
The multi-shot rifle was NOT in use back then - review the history.
You raise a good point about the word "arms" being used; while the framers were, indeed, some of the best and brightest, inferring that they knew of something which had yet to be invented is disingenuous. They did mistakes; remember slavery?
Brandon Lopez
12:14 pm on Sunday, February 24, 2013
Backwater hick state? Really? Are you embarrassed by the 2nd amendment? A "bizarre" legislation is any sort of gun restriction. The 2nd amendment is pretty clear on what right we have as law abiding citizens and "it shall not be infringed" upon. If believing in our constitutional rights makes me a crazy hick, then I'm the craziest wacko hillbilly in Missouri!
James Schumaker
12:44 pm on Sunday, February 24, 2013
Actually, the U.S. Supreme Court recently ruled on the Second Amendment in District of Columbia vs. Heller. The majority opinion, written by conservative Justice Scalia, noted in part that: "Like most rights, the Second Amendment right is not unlimited. It is not a right to keep and carry any weapon whatsoever in any manner whatsoever and for whatever purpose.." This would make bills like that sponsored by State Rep. Mike Leara unconstitutional. Of course, we all know that Leara is simply pandering to his base of with a bill like this, and it is not serious legislation. The real question is why he is wasting everyone's time when Missouri has many real problems legislators should be addressing. Here is the complete text of the Supreme Court decision: http://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/07pdf/07-290.pdf
Michael Davis
7:39 pm on Sunday, February 24, 2013
How do you reconcile "shall not be infringed"? The Supreme Court can make all the decisions in the world, but if they are not pursuant to the constitution then they are illegal according to the supremacy clause IN the constitution.
Federalist Paper #78 (para 10)
....…every act of a delegated authority, contrary to the tenor of the commission under which it is exercised, is void. No legislative act, therefore, contrary to the Constitution, can be valid. To deny this, would be to affirm, that the deputy is greater than his principal; that the servant is above his master; that the representatives of the people are superior to the people themselves; that men acting by virtue of powers, may do not only what their powers do not authorize, but what they forbid.
Tom Maher

Gawrsh - it looks like Mr. Davis, the Constitutional scholar, has hit upon a point ignored by his colleagues and attorneys!
Negate Brown v. Roard of Education ! Bring back separate-but-"equal"!
Negate Dred Scott v. Sanford ! The nerve of that man!
Negate Miranda v. Arizona ! He was a crook, anyway!
Negate District of Columbia v. Heller ! The No Real Acumen Klub is P.O'd!
Negate Lawerence v. Texas ! "Those people" are different, you know!
Negate Roe v. Wade ! Clear the back alleys!
Negate Bush v. Gore ! DEFINITELY!
Negate Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission ! Uh-Oh, now you are in the deepest do-do...
James Schumaker

In answer to Michael Davis: We are talking about the law here, not theology. The Federalist Papers are just that, papers. They are not the Holy Bible. You can disagree with the Supreme Court, but I don't think you will have any luck asserting that your interpretation of the Constitution should prevail over that of the Court. That's what they are there for. If you don't like their decision, get the decision reviewed before the court again. Until then, it's the law of the land.
Jason B
12:04 am on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
He showed the absurdity of Ellingers bill. To me that wasnt a waste of time. The founders were very clear in their intent of what the 2nd Amendment means. They fully intended for us to be able to go toe to toe with a standing army controlled by an out of control government.
Now granted they could not have imagined the heavy arms our military has now, but small arms are what they were thinking of. Even at that we dont have available what the military does just in those terms.
Sir if the feds manage to disarm us, the problems you reference in MO will be miniscule

Say there, Jason B - are you SURE that citizens' rights were not being trampled upon if, as you say, "we" needed equal arms to combat an "out-of-control" gub'ment?
After all those gub'ments had cannons, so citizens should have had access to cannons as well - right? Wha' hoppen there?
How can YOU be so sure they meant only "small arms?" Answer - you can't.
4:22 pm on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
Guess whose cannons the Continental Army used against the British?
That's right, they were owned by private citizens.
Here's a shocker, guns capable of firing multiple rounds were in existence at the time of the writing of the constitution. In fact, the first machine gun was designed and built in 1718.
Yes, the framers of the Constitution took all of this into account. Tom, your argument is invalid.

I do not dispute it is the accepted law of the land. I just think it is wrong. I am not arguing before a court. I was just curious if anyone actually reads "shall not be infringed" and thinks to themselves ....you know...that really means they actually wanted a bunch of regulations and laws infringing the use of this right.
If you interpret something totally different then what it actually is....what is the point of it to begin with?
Tom Maher
12:04 am on Wednesday, February 27, 2013
Oh, Brave (yet anonymous) "Michael" - you are being unrealistic about the first "machine gun" being available and even considered; had it been a viable design, it would have been produced (it was not).
I will grant that some privately-owned cannons MAY have been used against the British. However, virtually all were captured British cannons and those purchased from France.
The framers of the Constitution did not walk on water; they made mistakes in it.
You are being totally unrealistic when it comes to what they meant by "arms." You endow them with a prescience they just did not possess.
"Michael," your argument is invalid.

Equalize all by removing restrictions on fire arms ownership and possession
with the exception of the "full automatic" restriction of course. Having the
full population armed what idiot would try do pull off a drive-by shooting if
everyone on the street fires back at the cars occupants as they drive down
the street? What rapist/murderer would approach a woman wearing a
Colt Combat Commander on her hip? Would a bank robber try to rob a
bank if there were 20 armed men and women in it?
2:07 pm on Sunday, February 24, 2013
You know shootings in the streets are not the only gun problems, go look at suicide rates for gun-inflicted wounds. There have also been numerous studies that prove it is more dangerous to have a gun in the house than to not have one.
11:44 am on Monday, February 25, 2013
Most people don't look at the militia act of 1792 or 1930 very often when quoting the 2nd Amendment. Look up my blog post at http://ofallon.patch.com/blog_posts/gun-control-who-has-the-right.
While I did not attribute all passages I did look up the Militia Acts of 1792 and 1930 while writing the post.
Jason B
12:22 am on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
Revere Paul,
I work in EMS. Guess how many people dont use guns to kill themselves. Taking guns wouldnt stop suicides at all. There are a lot of ways to kill yourself. I have had and will continue to have numerous guns in my house and the only people it is dangerous too are the ones who would break in. Those "studies" are biased.
Tom Maher
12:29 am on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
Oh, Anonymous Jason B - the "studies" promulgated by the No Real Acumen Klub are not biased?
Say - I have a bridge in Brooklyn that you might be interested in...
9:35 am on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
Why don't you read this article and educate yourself a little Jason B
You'll probably just brush it off saying The New York Times is too left-leaning to be credible, even though it's regarded as the best newspaper in our country. Read the article and tell me if you can find any bias.
2:11 pm on Sunday, February 24, 2013
I would suggest one take a look at Pakistan for a glimpse of how a profoundly religious country with limited government, and very loose gun laws get along.
2:13 pm on Sunday, February 24, 2013
....Its also amusing to me that white men in state legislature play politics, but thats ok, but black women in state legislature just play politics.
Tom Maher
3:04 pm on Sunday, February 24, 2013
Ah, yes - I see the No Real Acumen kids have received their "ALERT-ALERT" email from the mother ship in D.C. Did Wayne sign it?
First it's Akin and then overriding the votes of the electorate, and now Leara; Leno and Letterman, et al, should send the Legislature roses.

The U.S. is the most violent nation in the world. More people have been killed by guns in the U.S. since 1968 than in all the wars we've EVER fought in. As a child (before guns were so plentiful) I was much safer on the street than I am now. Guns are the problem - not the solution. I don't think the police should ever be put in the position of being out-gunned. I don't trust the extremists right-wing fringe or the NRA gun industry lobby that believes the 2nd amendment gives them unrestricted rights to firearms and profit. The 2nd amendment begins "a well regulated militia". I see nothing well regulated about the nut jobs demanding more guns and I don't believe we need or want any vigilante mobs patrolling our streets. The current Missouri legislature is leading the state on a race to the bottom led by A.L.E.C. and Grover Norquist - not the needs of the people of Missouri. The Missouri State Motto: "Salus populi suprema lex esto" translates to "The welfare of the people shall be the supreme law". Those in control of the legislature have lost their purpose.
Tom Maher
12:18 am on Wednesday, February 27, 2013
Oh Brave (yet anonymous) "Michael" - I daresay you would be reluctant to repeat that statement to a LEO.
2:05 am on Monday, February 25, 2013
The folks in Jeff City do this all the time. They know the media won't pay attention to a regular press release, so they propose a bill. Now that it has "HB" in front of it, the media pays attention.
6:25 am on Monday, February 25, 2013
None of this would be happening if the federal government was acting within its proper sphere.
People fear the government as never before and feel a tremendous need to arm themselves.
The Missourian
9:20 am on Monday, February 25, 2013
Maybe hillbillies irrationally fear the gub'ment. The sane majority thinks expanded gun control makes sense.
Jason B
12:52 am on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
The sane ones fear the government, and know that they have overstepped and usurped powers they were never meant to have. The irrational ones are those who think disarming the citizens is a good idea. Give up your guns if you want comrade, Ill be keeping mine.
Tom Maher
1:02 am on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
Oh, Anonymous Jason B - you are a law-abiding and patriotic citizen, right?
In the (unlikely) event this bill were to pass, would you break the law? If so, are there other laws which you hold yourself above?
Why would it be OK for the Legislature, through a different bill, to forbid LEOs to enforce a Federal law and you to flout a state law?
4:30 pm on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
T speaks words of wisdom. If you think fear of government is irrational, then you are just flat out stupid.
Michael Davis
5:25 pm on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
Tom Maher, you said "If so, are there other laws which you hold yourself above?"
For myself, I consider myself above any man made law that takes away my rights. Would you give up freedom speech or religion if the government told you to?
Tom Maher
11:47 pm on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
Ahh, Michael Davis - you would hold yourself above laws as not applying to YOUR sense of entitlement - right?
So "I don't wanna obey this law; in MY perception, it violates my rights - so I won't obey it."
Unfortunately, we don't have a choice in choosing which laws to obey and which laws to flout, based on our caprice.
Elizabeth O'Fallon
9:28 am on Monday, February 25, 2013
Kurt, are you also going to do a story on the Missouri Dems who want to make it a felony to restrict union power? Both bills are similarly ridiculous. http://dailycaller.com/2013/02/22/missouri-dems-want-to-make-it-a-felony-to-restrict-union-power/
The Missourian
9:40 am on Monday, February 25, 2013
^ What's more ridiculous is letting ALEC write our laws from afar.
Tom Maher
10:52 am on Monday, February 25, 2013
Ahh, Ms.O'Fallon - the bill of which you speak was introduced as a counterpoint to show the ridiculousness of Rep. Leara's bill.
But you knew that and still...
Jason B
12:53 am on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
ANNNNDDD Learas bbill was intorduced as a counterpoint to HB 545 to show how ridiculous it was.
But you knew that and still.........
Tom Maher
1:04 am on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
Ahh, Anonymous Jason B - apples and oranges, dear sir.
But you knew that and still...
Tom Maher
9:04 am on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
Ahh, but Elizabeth - I would agree that both bills are dumb, but - if Leara can introduce a stupid bill to show his pique, why cannot Roorda? Are only GOPpers allowed to demonstrate their choler? How does that work?
OT, but I will give you props for being brave enough to post under your own name.
Elizabeth O'Fallon
8:25 am on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
Both bills are stupid and Reps are stupid for proposing them. What's your point Tom?
jade lenze
9:18 am on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
How can you people not only let your rights be taken away, but to willingly give them up?!? Im ashamed to be a part of a country with people that allow their rights to be taken away.. I agree, criminals should not have guns.. So why should everyone else suffer from the poor choices of such criminals?!
9:21 am on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
" I agree, criminals should not have guns.. So why should everyone else suffer from the poor choices of such criminals?!"
You really shouldn't be lecturing anyone on poor choices. I would also offer the opinion that perhaps you have other things to be ashamed of besides your country:
9:50 am on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
Blah Blah Blah is all i hear in these comments! I will keep my guns, I will teach my children about guns and how to use for their own personal safety. Quite frankly folks the guns are already out there and in the hands of the unknown. No way to get them back now. Just have to learn to adjust to this stupid world and protect ourselves!

Steve ®
10:10 am on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
Typical Liberal: We can't figure our how to stop bad guys with guns so lets pass more pointless legislation on the law abiding citizen.
Curly did have a solution, you just missed it or didn't care or didn't understand.
Ask yourself this: The criminal doesn't follow the 50 guns laws now on the books, why would the follow the 51st?
10:26 am on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
yep exactly! You can't legislate "CRAZY". So i will protect myself to the fullest extent regardless of laws. Sorry thats my opinion!
10:38 am on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
Steve: Yes, thats my point! lets keep spending money on pointless legislation thats not going to do any good for our country, because who's going to enforce the issue to begin with, the crooked cops that are out there who want to make a dollar?
The Missourian
10:39 am on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
Curly offered no solution. If by solution, you mean resigning himself to the present state of affairs and accepting the barbaric behavior around him as an immutable fact, then yes, he offered a solution. To me he offered a lazy copout. If as a culture we aren't prepared to take kids from trash parents and put them into better homes at early ages - and trash parenting is the true cause of the majority of violent crime - then you deal with the weapons used to commit violent crimes and the path those weapons take to get into criminals' hands.
Steve ®
11:26 am on Tuesday, February 26, 2013
Self defense is is not barbaric. It is something humans have done since the beginning of life. I wear a seat belt to protect myself if some bonehead t-bones my Escalade. I carry a gun in the hood to protect myself if some crazy feels that Escalade can generate income.
Like curly said, you can't legislate "CRAZY"

I propose that ALL firearms can be banned without violating the Second Amendment.
As a reminder, this is the text that was ratified by the States: "A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." It is NOT the same as the text passed by the Congress: "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."
I don't care about militia. I don't care about stockpiles either. I'm going after the word 'arms'. Arms are not limited to guns. Arms are weapons. A sword is a weapon. A bow is a weapon. A baseball bat is a weapon. A stapler is a weapon. A foot is a weapon. As such, they are all also arms. Oh, and your arms are weapons and are therefore arms. Ban all guns and the people still have the right to keep and bear any other arms they like. Your right to bear arms still exists.
I think the Congress could (in theory, obviously) whip out Article 1, section 8, clause 3 and Article 1, section 8, clause 18 of the Constitution and pound guns into dust. The International and Interstate Commerce Clauses could be used to make the importation, transportation, transfer, gift or sale of any firearm illegal.
You want to fire guns? Join the police, the FBI, or a branch of the military. Enjoy.
Before you question my patriotism, I was in the U.S. Navy from July 1985 to November 1989. Suck it.

She had comic character roles in "Night Watch," "Mame," and "Seven Keys to Bald Pate." She was the sign lady in "Sweet Charity." She has been stage manager and technical assistant.

Minutes Of The Village Board Meeting The Regular Meeting of the Village Board of Trustees was held on Thursday, March 9, 1989, in the Board Room of the Village Hall and called to order at 8:00 P.M. by President Dhamer. Present were President Dhamer, Trustee Wicke, Borowicz, Brown, Greve, and Hoeft. Also attending were Attorney Kukla and Village Engineer Schwegel. The first order of business was the Public Hearing held for the purpose of hearing from any or all of the owners of the 15 parcels for possible annexation to the village; these parcels being completely surrounded by the village boundaries. Attorney Kukla conducted said hearing noting that all legal publications and notice procedures had been met. He advised that 2 of the 15 parcels had not been included at this point. He also made note that under Section 7-1-13 of the Statutes of Illinois the village could force annex by merely notification to any property less than 60 acres and completely surrounded by village boundaries. He asked for any comments or questions from the audiences: 1) Ralph Berlin - Wanted to be sure that the village is aware that Parcel A of Tract B which was published in the notice was already in the village and has been and is taxed. Attorney Kukla recognized this after checking further, prior to the hearing. 2) Peter Mugavero: He objected to being forced annexed but would like the option of annexing voluntarily and inquired relative to his zoning which by the County is M-1. Attorney Kukla said he would automatically be zoned as RE 1 but if he was using the property as M 1 it would remain with the property unless abandoned for six months which it would then change to RE 1. If he was not using M 1 zoning, in order to maintain the M 1 zoning he would then have to file a petition to rezone to M 1 from RE 1. Mr. Mugavero said he wanted more information. 3) Mrs. McCampbell: Questioned if she would have any say regarding this annexation. She was answered that it is a village board decision. She felt she was not completely surrounded; however Board showed map which did surround her property. 4) Terry Todd: Questioned how far south the boundaries were, and if the Ervin property was annexed. He was advised that they were and again the map was shown. 5) Clete Starr: He was advised that he could annex by going through the proper legal channels of the village. He also questioned the sewer hook up fees since he has a septic system and he was told he probably would not have to hook up unless his system failed, but the village could require. It is their option. 6) Phil Freund: His business has been zoned for business for 25 years. Attorney Kukla gave him the same advice he had given Mr. Mugavero. He asked procedure regarding annexing voluntarily and Attorney Kukla gave him options. 7) Art Kahl: Stated he had 13 acres east of the Ervin property and would not like to annex. 8) Carolyn Jones: She asked whether they had any choice to annex and whether the village would annex one or all or none of the parcels. Attorney Kukla said this was a Board decision only. 9) Janet Starr: Asked if their taxes would include the S T P expansion expense. She was told this is only charged to users of the facility. President Dhamer questioned Mrs. McCampbell as to why she was objecting since the village had put paved street, curb and gutter, past her property with the Board noting that she had to use public right of way which was in village to get to her property. She started that it will cost her more in taxes. With this Attorney Kukla closed the Public Hearing to resume the agenda of the Regular Meeting. He told the Board he had not notified the two parcels before mentioned but that it can be deferred to the April regular meeting. After discussion, it was determined to table any action on the annexation matter to the April 13 meeting. The minutes of the February 9, 1989 meeting were before the trustees. Before they were approved. Trustee Greve found an error regarding the vote on the Galanis zoning matter in which it should have read 2/3 vote and not 1/3 as typed. Thereafter, Trustee Greve made a motion to accept the minutes as corrected, seconded by Continued on page is

The XVII. International Coal Preparation Congress (ICPC) will be held in Istanbul on October 1-6, 2013. Being an IOC member since 1998, Turkey will have the honor of hosting the ICPC for the first time. The ICPC, having been organized every four years under the leadership of the host member country, aims to bring together experts from around the world to discuss the recent advances and developments in coal preparation and quality improvement technologies. The technical sessions and the exhibition which will run concurrently during the congress will expose the participants to cutting-edge research and practices in coal preparation.
The concept of an ICPC was developed through the Allied Coal Commission which was an offshoot of the Marshall Plan. The objective was to reestablishing the coal industries of France, Belgium, Germany and Holland, which had been devastated by the war, for redeveloping Europe. The first International Organizing Committe (IOC) consisted of members from Belgium, France, Germany, Holland and United Kingdom, and U.S.A. was represented by Bill Crentz , from US Bureau of Mines. Presently, IOC is composed of 12 full members and 4 corresponding members.
