The economy has caused hardship for many people this year. Lots of people are feeling the crunch in the gas tank, the grocery store, and practically everywhere else. But right now the state of Kentucky is working with Adult Education Centers to help those who need the GED to take the test free.
Director of Owen County Adult Learning Center Veronica Gayle said education will be even more important in the future.

Maggie Smith has always been all angles and attitude, the kind of actress better suited to a career on the stage than in movies. But she has had triumphant success in both. And she appears to show no signs of slowing down, what with her ongoing role on "Downton Abbey" and her many film roles. A generation that doesn't know Jean Brodie recognize Smith from the "Harry Potter" series. And just this past year, she appeared with her peers -- that is, esteemed actors of a certain age -- in the surprise art house hit "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel," the story of retirement and spiritual rebirth set in India. In it, she portrayed a curmudgeon in need of a hip replacement who morphed into a content lady by the final reel.
In Quartet, her latest film, she plays an aging diva, Jean Horton, also in need of a hip replacement and some spiritual renewal. But instead of journeying to India, she is consigned to a posh home for aging musicians of the more highbrow variety, where she must face a new chapter in her life. And so, it turns out, must the home itself: facing budget cuts, it may disappear if its annual concert, a high-profile fundraiser, isn't a success. That message is trumpeted by Cedric Livingston (Michael Gambon), the former conductor with a penchant for wearing gorgeous silk robes and having a bellicose manner. As the performers sing a chorus from "La Traviata," he bemoans the fact that no one takes the concert as serious as he does. And upon losing his headliner, he predicts doom.
Hope comes in the person of Horton, an esteemed soprano forced by circumstance to move into the home. She is, of course, a diva: a role befitting the regal Smith. At first she eschews her new companions but slowly joins the social circle once reacquainted with a number of colleagues: ditzy soprano Cissy Robson (Pauline Collins) and still-randy tenor Wilf Bond (Billy Connolly), with whom she once starred in a lauded production of "Rigoletto." Their performance of the opera's famous quartet is legendary, and Livingston thinks that if it can be performed again at the gala, the home can be saved.
The problem is that Reginald Page (Tom Courtenay) -- the fourth member of that quartet -- is Horton's ex, and their relationship ended badly. When he hears that she has arrived at Beecham House, he threatens to move; but his commitment to musical education (realized in a lovely sequence where he compares opera to rap), keeps him from leaving. Still, he's reluctant to speak to Horton. Even after nearly twenty years, the wounds are still fresh.
The complications are worked out in a sweet, if predictable, manner in Ronald Harwood's script (adapted from his play). The stock characters and situations take any element of surprise out of the narrative. What makes the film (the screen directorial debut of Dustin Hoffman) worth watching is its cast of aging British actors bring life to their characters.
Hoffman has a good rapport with his cast (which includes numerous luminaries from British opera and classical music), and each gets a moment to shine, most notably the principals. Be it Courtenay pouting, Connolly flirting, Collins being confused or Smith just being Smith. We've seen her do this before -- she's been one of the most consistently haughty, yet oddly human actresses since she stormed on the screen in her Oscar-winning portrayal of Jean Brodie in 1969. And, remarkably, she hasn't worn out her welcome.
"Quartet" is from the Masterpiece Theater school of filmmaking. Call it Merchant Ivory-lite. It has style, class, gorgeous photography and a patina of emotional resonance. That it all but evaporates from memory upon leaving the theater doesn't mean it isn't pleasant to sit through.
Still, for a film about the place where music and memory converge, check out "Tosca's Kiss," the haunting 1985 documentary about elderly Italian singers in a retirement home. It sings; like Beyonce, "Quartet" just lip synchs.

"We've been discussing this bill down here for about as long as I've been here. I have never voted" for it. With that, Sen. Greg Brophy (R-Wray) began what one legislator called the best speech of his career.
Last Monday, Feb. 25, three state Senate Republicans, including Brophy, voted along with 22 Democrats to pass Senate Bill 13-033, known as ASSET, Advancing Students for a Stronger Economy Tomorrow. The bill allows an illegal immigrant who graduates from a Colorado high school the opportunity to obtain in-state tuition, so long as the student files an affidavit that he or she intends to seek lawful immigration status.
Two of those Senate Republicans had already stated they would support ASSET: Sen. Larry Crowder (R-Pueblo) and Sen. Owen Hill (R-Colorado Springs), who had previously voted for the bill in the Senate Education Committee. But it was Brophy, a senior member of the Senate Republican caucus, who took many by surprise with his remarks during second reading debate on ASSET on Feb. 22.
"I've come to know many of the kids who would benefit from the passage of this bill. I have a hard time making principled arguments against it, knowing that there's some pretty great kids out there who will benefit from it," Brophy told his Senate colleagues.
What triggered the change of heart? Brophy said some of it has taken place in the more than 10 years that he has represented the people of eastern Colorado, in seeing and getting to know the kids who live there.
"I thought of that in terms of the kids I know, in Kit Carson, Burlington and Wray," Brophy said. "They are home. That is their home. They play Wii, Xbox, football, baseball or participate in that European socialist sport, soccer. They can't leave here to go home because they are home. And if they are home they should avail themselves of the same opportunities as the other kids they go to school with."
On his Facebook page, Brophy explained another argument that helped convince him that the time to vote for ASSET had come.
"Families with modest incomes that have been here for years, whether they have come from Michigan or Mexico, are effectively net tax recipients. A family of four or five making median household income on the Plains pays no income tax. Period. It doesn't matter if they are here legally or not. They all pay sales taxes, property taxes, etc., though. They are all paying into the system and that is all that is required, that and living here for at least a year to get in-state tuition for college.
"If one cares to break out of the earning group that doesn't pay taxes and become a net tax payer, one who pays more in taxes than receives in benefits. The best way is through education. Go to college. Maximize that human capital; pursue happiness. I believe that's the stage two thinking principle that matters. Our Founders wrote that we have certain inalienable rights, one of those is the pursuit of happiness. The ability to own the fruits of your labor; in most cases, those fruits are greater if you are educated."
A few of Brophy's colleagues in the Senate, both Democratic and Republican, have known for about a month that he was planning to vote for SB 33, although for others, it was a surprise. Sen. Ted Harvey (R-Highlands Ranch) has spent 12 years in the Legislature alongside Brophy on many issues. He called Brophy's comments during the Feb. 22 debate "the best speech he's ever given." Harvey pointed out that Brophy gave his entire remarks without notes. "He's obviously given it a lot of thought. That said, he's dead wrong," Harvey said with a smile.
Bill sponsor Sen. Angela Giron (D-Pueblo) was less willing to give Brophy credit for being a trailblazer among his Republican colleagues, given the previous vote by Hill and public statements earlier in the session by Crowder. But she said she was surprised when she first heard Brophy was planning to change his previous opposition, and acknowledged that the three Senate Republicans will get a lot of "pushback" for their votes.
Sen. Kevin Lundberg (R-Berthoud), who shares an office with Brophy at the capitol, said he was unaware that Brophy would vote for the bill until his Senate speech. "I clearly disagree with him. It's the first step toward amnesty," he said this week.
One commenter on the liberal blog Colorado Pols put it this way: "You've got to be kidding me. Brophy? CROWDER?"
Brophy sat down this week to talk about the impact of his vote. "It would become a potential issue should I choose to run for another office, and have a primary." During his remarks last week, Brophy warned his Republican colleagues that voting for ASSET would be risky and would take courage. "I wasn't kidding when I said on the floor that Republicans who vote for this do so at their own political peril," he said this week.
So far, his Facebook page has garnered 80 comments on his vote, about half negative. Brophy also noted that one person questioned his integrity, although the man later apologized.
"What I get out of this? I get to have my integrity and values questioned, and an issue that can be used against me in any future race." But then he smiled, and said, "I get to look at myself in the mirror and know I did the right thing."
SB 33 passed the House Education Committee on a 9-4 vote on Feb. 27, with two House Republicans, Reps. Brian DelGrosso (R-Loveland) and Kevin Priola (R-Henderson) voting with the committee's seven Democrats. The bill is now awaiting action from the House Appropriations Committee.

A group of students at Clayton Intermediate School learned about the history of fingerprinting Thursday during a visit from state fingerprinting analyst Rodney Hegman.
Hegman works for the State Bureau of Identification.
The program was put on for students involved in the Student Triad Enrichment Program (S.T.E.P.).
S.T.E.P. is a program designed to challenge students and help them reach their maximum potential, according to CIS teacher Irene Buscemi. Topics covered in S.T.E.P. mainly cover social studies/history and science. Buscemi and teacher Katie Shannon compiled information from a variety of resources to create a unit on forensic science for the fifth and sixth graders in the program. Buscemi teachers the fifth grade S.T.E.P., while Shannon teaches the sixth grade S.T.E.P. students.
As part of the forensic science unit, the students went on a field trip to the Crime Museum in Washington, D.C. in February. Then the teachers decided to have a guest speaker come to class to enhance the unit and provide the kids with hands-on knowledge about forensic science, Buscemi said. The school's resource officer Bruce Graham, who also works at Clayton Elementary and Providence Creek Academy, helped to set up the visit from fingerprint analyst Rodney Hegman.
Students in the program had already learned about fingerprinting, analyzing handwriting, forgery of print and typewritten documents, and the variety of career fields in forensic science. Therefore, Hegman's visit complimented what the students had already learned.
And there were plenty of questions to ask as Hegman field questions left and right about his work from his hardest case to whether or not any of his cases involved juvenile suspects.
Hegman told the students about several cases including the case of a cat burglar who took his socks off to cover his hands, but police were still able to identify him with his footprint. He also told them of one story where a murder case took 15 years to solve.

It's surprising to find a state legislator from a suburban district that has as little understanding of the economic contribution that major urban centers bring to the state as does Daryl Metcalfe.
The five counties in southeastern Pennsylvania that support SEPTA, plus Allegheny County, bring in 23 percent of the state's sales tax receipts and 48 percent of the personal income tax collected. To flourish, these centers require compact cores well served by mass transit, both to bring workers to employment zones and to provide mobility to residents and visitors without a car.
The problem is not that we are spending too much on mass transit, it is that we are spending too little on transportation. At current funding levels, neither our highways nor our transit systems are sustainable.

Dear Editor:
April is Autism Awareness Month. The lifelong developmental disorder, once rare, now affects 1 in 49 New Jersey children and their families. And as the rate of autism has grown, the effects of autism have rippled out, reaching into schools, churches and synagogues, supermarkets, movie theaters, restaurants, fire departments and first aid squads, hair salons, public busses, and the office or job site.
For those with autism, the neighborhoods in which they live are a vital source of support and opportunity. Many special needs schools use the community as a classroom – a place to teach the 'real life' skills that these young people so desperately need. But this kind of social learning cannot happen without support from others.
So this year, during Autism Awareness Month, I invite my fellow autism advocates to join me in making 'gratitude' part of awareness. Thank the vendors, business owners – large and small – and other community leaders who are working to learn more about autism and finding ways, large and small, to help.
With a compassionate community of support, these children and adults will have the chance to learn from, and contribute to their own communities.
Geraldine Gibbia,
Co-founder and Executive Director
The Phoenix Center

So, it's no secret that the Linux desktop - at least, the GNOME-side of things - is a bit in a state of disarray. Unity hasn't exactly gone down well with a lot of people, and GNOME 3, too, hasn't been met with universal praise. So, what to do? Linux Mint, currently one of the most popular Linux distributions out there, thinks they are on to the solution with their latest release, Linux Mint 12.

Our Original Range of Charms
These are the charms that initially got us underway. Originally, Chain Me Up
only sold gold and silver chains. We quickly realised that we needed to increase
our range of products and we contacted the Australian manufacture of these
silver bracelet charms. With more than 500 available we thought that it was a
good start.
Combine that with our ability to create a charm bracelet from both our ranges and we felt pretty good.It didn't take long to realise that there were so many more silver and gold bracelet charms we didn't have, so we acquired a new supplier with around 3600 to choose from (and another new supplier in Feb 2015, adding another 900 new tarnish resistant charms). None the less, we love our first supplier and happily continue to share their designs with our customers. They are also the manufacturer of our bangles and many of our pendants.
Buy Sterling Silver Charms online
A jewellery store will stock a limited range of charm jewellery and if you can find exactly what you are looking for, it can be yours right then, at a price.
Our jewellery charms are all custom made, so you will always get the item of your dreams at a great price that the retail stores can't compete with. You will however need to be patient as each charm is made to order and will take between 7 and 21 days to arrive at your door.

So if you are shopping for Australian made charm jewellery in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide, Hobart, Perth or Darwin or any regional city, town or outback property, we'll be there for you 24/7.

"Acer, the Taiwanese computer maker that's suffered two consecutive annual losses, posted strong sales of notebooks using Google's Chrome platform after the release of Microsoft's Windows 8 failed to ignite the market. Chrome-based models accounted for 5 percent to 10 percent of Acer's U.S. shipments since being released there in November, President Jim Wong said in an interview at the Taipei-based company's headquarters. That ratio is expected to be sustainable in the long term and the company is considering offering Chrome models in other developed markets, he said." HP is also planning a Chrome OS laptop, and it's been at the top of Amazon's charts (whatever that means) for a while now. In case you haven't noticed - the desktop world, too, is changing. Nobody wants Windows 8 (touch or no), so OEMs are finally looking elsewhere. We're finally getting what we wanted 13 years ago.

Posted on October 12, 2009
Over the years, I have had occasional advice from my volunteers about Playing It Safe. I seem to attract people who like to do my worrying for me, feeling that although I may know about books I know nothing else. And from time to time, they have warned me that I was putting my personal safety (and that of my volunteers) at risk by setting certain books out for sale.
When I had that famous volume signed by Fidel Castro, one or two people warned me that putting such a thing up for sale at a large price on the Collectors' table would attract Cuban expatriates who would express their contempt for Castro by gunning me down. (Didn't happen; sold it to a fellow who said he'd once been assigned to assassinate Castro, so I guess it found a loving home.)
When Salman Rushdie was under a death sentenced issued by the Ayatollah Khomeini for Satanic Verses, I had a couple of first editions to sell. One of my volunteers told me that putting that book on the Collectors' table for a high price would certainly call forth Islamic conservatives who would express their hatred of the author by gunning me down. (Didn't happen; didn't sell many copies of it, either. I guess my customers don't shop according to book reviews from Ayatollahs.)
It isn't so much that I am unaware of the power of books to offend people. And I understand this misguided urge to avoid offending people at all costs. (I happen to work in a library, and I sell books. Libraries try to support the RIGHT of people to be offended, and booksellers are aware that lots of people do, in fact, buy books which offend them.) What I don't understand is why it's the Collectors' table that my volunteers think will attract the violent criminal.
See, it wasn't that I had these books for sale that they thought would make guns blaze. It was the price of the book. The fact that I was asking $1,000 for Castro's autograph, they felt, would be taken as some sort of endorsement. If I'd asked fifty cents for a signed Castro, the only violence would then have been from customers pushing and shoving to get at it first.
But just because the only violence at the Collectors' table so far has involved high stakes haggling doesn't mean it COULDN'T happen. So I will try to head off extremism by making a public declaration here and now that just because I happen to charge a thousand bucks for a book doesn't mean I endorse its contents, the lifestyle of its author, or the political attitude of the publisher's mother. YOU don't know what I was thinking as I wrote in the price, after all. I could have been thinking, "Oh, yuck! Another thousand dollar book by someone I don't endorse politically!"
So, son, don't take your gun to the Book Fair. If you MUST show contempt for an expensive book, buy it, take it home, and burn it. That costs more than a mere bullet, so it enhances your credibility without costing me a claim on my workman's comp.

What: Boulder County commissioners hold a public hearing on proposed amendments to what kinds of agricultural uses the county permits, and under what kinds of conditions, in rural Boulder County.
When: 2 p.m. Thursday
Where: Boulder County Courthouse's third-floor hearing room, 1325 Pearl St., Boulder.
Further information: The county staff's report about the proposed agricultural land use provisions, along with the changes the Boulder County Planning Commission recommended on Dec. 19, is available online through a link on a county web page at http://bouldercounty.org/property/build/pages/lucodeupdateag.aspx
BOULDER -- People living in unincorporated Boulder County's "suburban residential" zoning districts may soon be allowed to keep honey bee colonies and backyard chickens on their properties.
Beekeeping and chickens are currently considered agricultural activities in Boulder County's Land Use Code. They're only allowed in zoning districts permitting certain "open agricultural uses" -- districts in forestry, agricultural, rural residential, estate residential, light industrial, general industrial and mountain institutional zoning categories.
However, Land Use Code revisions being considered by the Board of County Commissioners would permit up to two honey bee colonies on each building lot parcel within a suburban residential zoning district -- with a queen and her worker bees counting as one colony.
The proposed land-use regulatory changes also would allow up to eight hens, but no roosters, on a suburban residential zoning district building lot parcel.
Land Use Department planner Abby Shannon said there are more than 2,000 parcels of property in the unincorporated Boulder County's suburban residential zoning districts, including all or parts of such subdivisions as Knollwood, Heatherwood, Twin Lakes, Gunbarrel Estates, Northwest Acres, Cottonwood Park West, Gunbarrel Green and Palo Park, as well as some unincorporated county enclaves within the city of Boulder.
Shannon told commissioners in a memo, though, that it's likely that some of those subdivisions have privately enforced covenants that might still prohibit keeping chickens or bees even if the county Land Use Code is changed to permit them.
Shannon said the Land Use staff has been in contact with homeowners associations in most of those subdivisions. She said those HOAs "are aware of the proposals and have not expressed formal opinions on them."
The Boulder County Planning Commission and the Land Use Staff are recommending the prohibition against roosters in suburban residential zoning districts, Shannon said, "because they are known to be louder and more aggressive than hens, two characteristics that aren't appropriate in residential neighborhoods with small parcels."

Like I had said in my review with the iXL, my daughter wants to be like the big girls and have big girl gadgets. One item that she has wanted since she was 3, was a MP3 Player. But unfortunately for her, I dont trust her with a MP3 player. She wouldnt mean to drop it or leave it on the floor and maybe step on it, but at her age and with a 2 year old brother, that kinda stuff is just inevitable. That is why I love Fisher-Price! I said it before and I will say it again, Fisher-Price understands kids. They know what kids want and what they like, and then they make the products, but with kid durability in mind. We were given a Kid-Tough Music Player to test and review for my readers. So not only is the Kid-Tough Music Player built just like it says 'Kid-Tough', but it is also a working, functioning MP3 player. So if she drops it or her little brother gets a hold of it, it will still work!! She can also get on the computer with her older step sisters and download music to her MP3 player so she can jam out with the girls! Oh, and unlike the older girls MP3 players, she can sing along with the music using the attached microphone. So her music player will be even more awesome than her stepsisters music players!! With Fisher-Price, they can make the products that are for kids like mine that are in the know when it comes to the latest and greatest, and also keep the products kid friendly!
• High-quality speakers
• Sing-along microphone
• Simple controls and large buttons
• Stores up to 4 hours of music!
• 5 fun songs included

Trust Golf mixes fun and business01/10/2010 4:47 PM ET
Care. Act. Inspire.
That's become the motto of the Major League Baseball Players Trust, and it was evident in abundance throughout the second weekend of January when dozens of active and former players gathered at the Lodge at Torrey Pines in La Jolla, Calif., for the annual meeting of the players' collective charity.
The focus of the weekend is fun -- with some business mixed in. The Players Trust golf tournament has become a highlight for players who team with sponsors to raise some of the money necessary to administer the wide range of programs in which the Trust is involved.
"The Players Trust does a lot of great work around the community, not just in this country but in a lot of Spanish-speaking countries as well," said Chris Capuano, who has been an active member of the Trust since breaking in with the Brewers.
The range of golfers included veteran players who don't really golf much but want to help the cause -- like Eddie Guardado -- to up-and-coming stars like Evan Longoria, who hits a golf ball even further than a hanging slider. And even the most veteran players like the idea of rubbing elbows with Hall-of-Famers like Eddie Murray, Frank Robinson and Dave Winfield.
This year's event included rounds of golf at Del Mar Country Club and Torrey Pines South, whose grounds crew was well into preparation for the upcoming San Diego Open. There were also meet-and-greet sessions with sponsors and supporters, an auction, a magic show and even an Iron Chef-style cooking competition featuring celebrity chefs and big leaguers.
The cooking competition brought out the competitive nature of the players, who brought that special brand of baseball player focus and concentration to the other hot stove.
Ultimately, a panel of celebrity chefs gave the close call to the "Rice Griffies" (Reggie Sanders, Mike Sweeney and Josh Barfield, coached by Chef Bradford Thompson) over the "Chef Boyarethree" team (Bobby Bonilla, Chris Capuano and Kenny Lofton, coached by Chef Beau MacMillan).
"But it's not all about golf and having fun," Capuano said. "That's a big part of it, but the great majority of players came out a day early to actively participate in the Trust's annual meeting.
"We go over all of the different Trust programs, and we collectively make decisions about how we can put our money and resources to the best use to impact the lives of the most people. There is a lot of active player involvement. The Trust is possible because there are a lot of conscientious players who want to make decisions and help run this thing."
Even though most of the participants were heading home for the last few weeks before Spring Training, about a dozen current and former players stuck around to give a baseball clinic for underprivileged kids at the University of California at San Diego. The youth instruction was part of the Players Trust's newest program, which is called City Clinics. In conjunction with the Major League Baseball Players Alumni Association, current Major Leaguers created their City Clinics program to promote the game of baseball, life skills and education to underprivileged children living in cities across the country.
It was just another call to serve for this committed group of players and former players. They cared. They acted. And they inspired.

College graduates who became immersed in the campus culture of sexual encounters known as "hookups" are turning to professionals to learn how to date.
They are paying up to $300 Cdn an hour to "dating coaches" to be trained in the lost art of courtship — sending flowers, accepting a compliment and light flirting.
The coaches are riding a tide of discontent with the instant-gratification culture of "kiss and tell but never commit" that has dominated college life since the rise of Facebook in the late 2000s.
They say the biggest problem is that many young men have forgotten how to ask a woman out on a date, while women are so busy texting details of their latest conquest — known as sniping — that many know the rules of courtship only from "old" films dating back to the 1990s.
Even the 2011 film Friends with Benefits, in which Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis struggle to reconcile friendship with ostensibly casual sex, seems out of date in a hookup culture where serious conversation is frowned upon as a waste of time.
A third of first-year students who routinely "hook up" — defined as a commitment-free encounter that can range from kissing to sexual intercourse — say that they do not enjoy the experience, according to Donna Freitas, assistant professor of religion at Boston University.
That includes men as well as women, says Freitas, who interviewed nearly 3,000 students at seven U.S. colleges for her book The End of Sex: How Hookup Culture Is Leaving a Generation Unhappy, Sexually Unfulfilled, and Confused about Intimacy, to be published in April.
"When I was at college during the 1990s we went on dates, drank a lot of wine and got to know each other," she said last week. "There's nothing wrong with great, chandelier-swinging sex.
"But the tyranny of the hookup culture has robbed a generation of intimacy and physical pleasure for both genders.
"Many told me they had meaningless hookups just because they are expected to by friends, so they no longer enjoy sex. Men and women have been habituated against expecting it to be pleasurable."
Freitas believes that this may explain why a quarter of 18 to 22-year-old male students admit to problems with sexual performance. "They always have to be drunk, or at least appear so, so they can walk away without committing to anything," she added.
This is the darker side of the sexually liberated campus depicted by the New York writer Hanna Rosin in her recent bestseller The End of Men. Rosen suggested that women were driving the hookup culture to gain an education without the bother of relationships.
Freitas says that boasting about the hookup online is as important for many women as the often-brief act itself.
"They told me it's not over until they have tweeted about it, with details," said Freitas. "This is a social act — there is no privacy. Certainly it's not what we would call a date."
Today's "date" is more likely to be a last-minute text or tweet inviting a prospective sexual partner to tag along with a group of friends at pubs and clubs.
Those who do manage to arrange dates often schedule several brief meetings over a coffee in the same evening because they are haunted by a fear of missing out, said Lisa Shield, a dating coach who urges her Los Angeles clients to slow down.
"The new date is 'hanging out,' " Denise Hewett, 24, a Manhattan television producer, told one newspaper. She said a male friend had told her that he did not like to take girls out, preferring to invite them to join him in whatever he was doing, such as going to a concert.
Hewitt is developing a television show about the dateless generation, but HBO's comedy drama Girls may cover some of the same ground for the twentysomethings who have graduated from college with plenty of experience but little understanding of the opposite sex.
In the first episode of the new series earlier this month, a young woman and man who got together by texting nude photographs to each other discussed whether being each other's "main hang" in bed qualified as a date.
"It is the end of courtship," warned The New York Times.

LONGMONT -- The Colorado Court of Appeals on Thursday overturned a Longmont man's 2009 conviction in the 1987 murder of his ex-wife, Carol Murphy.
The court ruled that now-retired Boulder District Judge James C. Klein erred by disallowing evidence at Kevin Elmarr's trial that pointed to two other suspects, said Boulder County District Attorney Stan Garnett.
Garnett said it is now up to his office to review the court's decision and either appeal it to the Colorado Supreme Court or prepare to retry the case. His office has 45 days to decide whether to ask the Supreme Court to review the lower court's ruling."It is a murder case so, of course, it is a top priority," Garnett said.
A jury convicted Elmarr in August 2009 of the first-degree murder of his ex-wife, Carol Murphy, in 1987.
Hikers found Murphy's nude body facedown near a trail in Left Hand Canyon on May 23, 1987. She had been strangled and her throat cut.
Elmarr was a suspect at the time of her death, but he was not arrested until January 2007 when a re-examination of evidence revealed his DNA in samples taken from her body. Prosecutors argued that a tumultuous divorce and ongoing legal entanglements over the couple's two children motivated him to kill Murphy.
In the years between Murphy's murder and Elmarr's arrest, Elmarr worked as a volunteer rescuer with the Longmont Emergency Unit, often working alongside Boulder County Sheriff's investigators who suspected him of killing Murphy.
Witnesses testified that Murphy and Elmarr planned an outing to the mountains on May 22, 1987, the day before her body was found. Some said they saw the couple leave together on his motorcycle, and other witnesses said the motorcycle was parked near the place Murphy's body was found.
However, defense witnesses told jurors that they saw or heard from Murphy on the evening of May 22, hours after investigators and prosecutors believe she was killed. Defense witnesses also testified about Murphy's sex life and liaisons with multiple partners, specifically presenting one of her lovers as an alternative suspect.
Elmarr will remain behind bars while the case moves forward, Garnett said.
"It is disappointing because getting a cold case like this to trial in the first place takes a lot of resources," Garnett said.
The court overturned the conviction on a technicality, he said, but he added that he respects and understands the process.
"It does illustrate how challenging and difficult these cold-case homicides we've been doing are," Garnett said.
The case, he said, isn't getting any younger.
During the 2009 trial, many witnesses struggled recalling details for the case that was then 22 years old.

Michigan's Spike Albrecht Tries To Score With Kate Upton Via Twitter
Michigan ultimately lost to the Cardinals last night during one of the most exciting NCAA Championships games. However it didn't stop young Spike Albrecht confidence. If anything it propelled it.
Last night as the world watch Spike put on a first half solo show, I quickly thought young Trey Burke would see a slow decline in his groupies as Spike picked the perfect time to arrive on the big stage. That seemed to be exactly what happened yesterday, as Spike sent the below tweet out to Kate Upton.
@KateUpton hey saw you at the game last night, thanks for coming out! Hope to see you again ?
— Spike Albrecht (@SpikeAlbrecht) April 9, 2013
That's what you call a heat check.
The 20-year-old vivacious supermodel was at the game with her younger brother and friend sporting Michigan's color since she is a self-proclaimed "die-hard Wolverines fan."
Spike has already seen a growth in his tweeter followers and is now a house hold name after a specular 20 minute performance during the title game. When you're going after a beauty like Upton one must have their weight up, hopefully this will be enough to get him in the door. If not he shouldn't worry. I'm certain there are others just be sure to stay far away from Jenna Shea.

For Registered Dietitians, the month of March symbolizes National Nutrition Month. The theme for this year is "Eat Right, Your Way, Every Day." The theme basically encourages consumers to include the foods they love as part of a healthful eating plan that is tailored for their lifestyles, traditions, health needs and, of course, tastes.
As the month of March approaches each year, many people associate it with the ending of winter and beginning of spring. For Registered Dietitians, the month of March symbolizes National Nutrition Month.
The theme for this year is "Eat Right, Your Way, Every Day." The theme basically encourages consumers to include the foods they love as part of a healthful eating plan that is tailored for their lifestyles, traditions, health needs and, of course, tastes. Eating healthy doesn't mean that you need to give up all of the foods that you love.
How can you eat right every day if you have certain medical conditions that may cause you to monitor what you eat? It's simple! Below are some diet modifications to some common conditions:
Try to eat your meals and snacks around the same time every day.
Monitor your portion sizes.
Incorporate whole-grain breads, cereals, pastas and rice; vegetables and beans; fruits; lean meat, fish, poultry and tofu; low-fat or fat-free milk, cheese and yogurt; and healthy fats like olive oil.
Monitor your carbohydrate intake (pasta, potatoes, bread, milk, fruit, etc.) to ensure your blood sugars remain controlled. Carbohydrates affect your blood sugar more than protein or fat.
Heart disease
Balance calories with physical activity to manage weight.
Increase the variety of nutrient-rich foods, such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, fat-free and low-fat dairy products and seafood.
Consume fewer foods with sodium (salt), saturated fats, trans fats, cholesterol, added sugars and refined grains.
Balance your calories consumed and calories burned through physical activity.
Include fiber-rich foods like fruits, vegetables, beans and whole grains, which offer plenty of vitamins and minerals without plenty of calories while keeping you feeling full longer.
Monitor portion sizes to help manage calorie intake.
Limit empty calories (soft drinks and fruit drinks, candy, cookies, donuts, pastries, margarine, butter, cream, bacon, and all deep-fat fried foods).
If you are working towards a healthier weight, remember that diet alone cannot do the trick. Exercise is a key component. Per the Center for Disease Control (CDC) guidelines, adults need at least 2 hours and 30 minutes (150 minutes) of moderate intensity aerobic activity (i.e., brisk walking) every week and muscle strengthening activities on two or more days a week that work all major muscle groups (legs, hips, back, abdomen, chest, shoulders, and arms). (See http://www.cdc.gov/physicalactivity/everyone/guidelines/).
Find foods you enjoy
Eating healthier doesn't have to be torture. Even with certain medical conditions you can still work in the foods that you enjoy. You can learn to incorporate your favorite foods into your meal plan. If you are at risk for any of the previously mentioned conditions, the diet modifications can be used as a preventative measure. Celebrate Nutrition Month with us and learn to "Eat Right, Your Way, Every Day!"

PEORIA — Jerry and Lynn Flaherty banter like the longtime married couple they are.
Here, on a roof of Children's Hospital of Illinois, the easy banter masks unspeakable emotions more than 50 years old.
The Flahertys got their first glimpse Wednesday of the rooftop respite garden named in their honor. A blessing and ribbon cutting will be Thursday afternoon.
While Jerry Flaherty kept bringing up the technical engineering feat of building a garden on a roof, Lynn Flaherty kept going back to the babies and families inside the walls, on the hospital's fourth-floor pediatric critical care unit.
"I know what it feels like to worry about children, to be by their bedside," she says.
The Flahertys' three sons range from 50 to 55 years old, but memories of their births prompted the couple to donate $500,000 to build the garden. Jerry Flaherty's former employer, Caterpillar Inc., matched their gift, making the garden possible. He retired as a group president in 2001.
All three sons were born two to three months prematurely, Lynn Flaherty says. One weighed four pounds at birth, one weighed three pounds, the other weighed two pounds. They were born at a time when parents weren't even allowed to put their hands in incubators.
She hopes contemporary families going through similar experiences will be able to leave hospital rooms and find comfort and peace a few steps away in the garden. "If we can do this for these families, it will be a dream come true for me."
When the garden opens officially, probably after Labor Day, it will be one of the most exclusive areas in the city, open only to families of patients in the pediatric care unit of Children's Hospital, which is based at OSF Saint Francis Medical Center.
The Jerry and Lynn Flaherty Family Respite Garden overlooks the whir of traffic along Interstate 74 and brings the skyscape of Downtown Peoria to eye level.
Trees, flowering shrubs, ornamental grasses and hundreds of perennial flowers, chosen to attract birds and butterflies, are interspersed with beds of blue Mexican cobblestones intended to represent a meadow stream.
Wooden walkways guide the way to sitting areas, the fountain centerpiece and a trio of canopies made of aluminum grating, each weighing about 5,000 pounds.
Tempered glass, etched with inspirational quotes, forms a protective fence near the roof's edge without obstructing the view.
Plans for the garden have been in the works several years. Originally part of the Milestone Project, it was delayed first because of budget constraints and later because of construction technicalities. The Flahertys say they grabbed the opportunity to help fund it. They both say they are "thrilled" with the results and the response.
"I see more enthusiasm about this one project than I saw at Caterpillar about many, many projects," Jerry Flaherty says.

This may be difficult to believe, but North Korea isn't pleased about a new film that maybe kind of sort of makes fun of it.
A North Korea official has a some harsh words concerning new film "The Interview," which stars James Franco and Seth Rogen as two journalists assigned by the CIA to assassinate North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un.
"A film about the assassination of a foreign leader mirrors what the U.S. has done in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and Ukraine," Kim Myong-chol, executive director of the Centre for North Korea-U.S. Peace and an unofficial spokesman for the regime in Pyongyang, told U.K. publication The Telegraph. "And let us not forget who killed (President John F.) Kennedy -- Americans.
I thought it was Sicilians ... or Cubans ... or Russians. Or all of them.
"In fact, President (Barack) Obama should be careful in case the U.S. military wants to kill him as well," he said.
Scary talk. Well ... at least they don't have nukes ...
The film, which is released in October, tells the story of a talk-show host and his producer who score a rare interview with the North Korean dictator. Then the CIA gets involved and all kind of hell breaks loose.
Myong-chol told The Telegraph that Kim Jong-un -- believed to be a movie buff -- will still likely watch the movie, which prompted a tweet from Rogen.
In the trailer, a government agent says North Koreans believe anything that Kim Jong Un says, including that "he can speak to dolphins" and that "he never has to urinate or defecate."
Boy, that would come in handy on road trips.
Myong-choi said the film shows Hollywood no longer makes good movies, and prefers British movie.
"James Bond is a good character and those films are much more enjoyable," he said.
He must have missed the one in which the bad guys was a North Korean terrorist.

Sweeping changes in America's health care system begin to take effect in October, which means Roberta Riportella expects to be very, very busy the next several months.
Riportella, the Kansas Health Foundation professor of community health at Kansas State University, is heading up an effort to help Kansans learn more about how the Affordable Care Act – often called ObamaCare – will affect them once the law goes into effect on Jan. 1, 2014.
In Kansas, it stands to most directly impact more than 365,000 who are currently without health insurance, many of whom now will be required to purchase insurance from private providers authorized through a 'Marketplace Exchange.'
Kansans will begin making those choices when open enrollment begins Oct. 1.
"Kansas people who are uninsured will have a product to buy, they'll have a marketplace to go to," Riportella said, "and they'll have people to help them enroll."
The marketplace is intended to make insurance more affordable. Consumers will have a choice of private plans, and qualifying individuals and families are eligible for tax credits, she said.
Specific to Kansans:
• Providing dependent coverage to age 26 will benefit more than 25,000 young Kansas adults.
• Prescription drug discounts will save $14 million for Kansans, an average of $615 per person.
• Rebates from insurance companies will total more than $4 million.
• A reinsurance program for retirees will affect employees at more than 60 Kansas companies.
• Federal funding for public and private Kansas recipients will exceed $90 million.
"I very much want people to know that I'm not saying ObamaCare is the best or the worst; it just 'is,' Riportella said. "It's the law of the land and I am here to make sure that people understand what the criteria are.
"We will have a functioning exchange in our state and come January 2014, people who don't have insurance will have a place to go to purchase more affordable insurance."
Riportella said that several Kansas organizations have applied for a share of $600,000 in federal grants that is allocated to Kansas for enrollment. The grants will help establish "navigators" throughout the state — many of whom will be volunteers — to help Kansans sort through numerous health care options.
In addition, she will be training K-State Research and Extension agents and staff throughout Kansas so that they can help.
"I think when people start to hear what really is in the Affordable Care Act and how most of it is protecting middle class Americans, they will feel more comfortable with it," she said.
Riportella added that ACA makes it illegal for insurance companies to
• deny coverage to children because of a pre-existing condition like asthma or diabetes (on Jan. 1, 2014, this applies to adults, too),
• put a lifetime limit on how much care they will pay for if you get sick, or
• cancel your coverage when you get sick by finding a mistake on your paperwork.
Thus far, three companies — Blue Cross/Blue Shield of Kansas, Coventry, and Blue Cross/Blue Shield of Kansas City — are approved to provide coverage for Kansans. Those same companies provide insurance at many larger Kansas companies, and many of the benefits they offer in those plans will now be available to all citizens.
"There is a lot of preventive care that is being covered here," Riportella said. "If people use this new health care reform insurance system the way it's meant to be used and the incentives for using preventive care work well, then we'll have a lot more people treated in more cost-effective settings. They will be treated outside the hospital."
In educating more people about the law, Riportella is being careful not to position herself as being in favor of or opposed to ObamaCare.
"What I'm an advocate for is good, quality care," she said. "I or others may have chosen to make that happen in a different way than how the Affordable Care Act is making it happen, but I do believe that ACA will help to insure more Americans, and I think that's a positive thing."

KENOSHA, Wis. (AP) -- The Democrat who failed to unseat Rep. Paul Ryan last year is planning an "announcement rally" at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside.
Rob Zerban has formed a congressional exploratory committee but he hasn't formally announced his candidacy. Committee coordinator Al Benninghoff says the Oct. 26 event is being billed as an "announcement rally" but he didn't have further details.
Benninghoff's comments Monday come the same day another Democrat announced his intention to challenge Ryan.
Amar Kaleka is the son of the Sikh temple president who was killed along with five others in a shooting rampage at their Milwaukee-area temple. The 35-year-old says he's running to restore accountability to Congress.
Benninghoff welcomed Kaleka's announcement, saying that's what the primary process is for.
Zerban is a former Kenosha County board member.

My husband, Joe Henricks, died on Nov. 27, 1973. His legacy stills lives on in my heart. I feel compelled to tell the story of his dying to all who think it useless to suffer in their last agony.
Joe had a condition in which strep germs build colonies on the heart, almost always the forerunner of kidney cancer. We, nor anyone else, realized that.
When he developed symptoms of his fatal illness, he did not have the classic symptoms that would have enabled doctors to diagnose his problem, allowing for possible lifesaving treatment.
We wound up at a hospital in Buffalo, N.Y. The tumor on his kidney was in such a position that ordinary X-rays did not show it.
The surgical team took pictures of the operation for their teaching courses. The cancer had spread so much that even the most aggressive treatment available at the time probably was not going to cure him.
Joe consented to the use of the newest experimental drugs with the slim hope that he would be cured. Failing that, he felt maybe someone else could be helped by new discoveries found in the course of his treatment.
The treatments were painful and time-consuming. After three weeks at the Buffalo hospital, we returned to Butler and went to our family doctor for the weekly shots.
The nurse, knowing how difficult that was, asked him how he could go on taking it. Joe simply said, "I can't just lay down and die."
I'm sure that the people who agree with Kevorkian are sincere in their desire to end unnecessary suffering. However, I can't help wondering where all that is leading.
Heroic measures never were a moral obligation. Keeping a patient comfortable with painkillers, even though that might hasten the person's death, always has been an option.
That is not the same thing as deliberately giving an overdose to kill the patient.
My husband would say he was not a brave man. He would say he hated pain and suffering, helplessness and dependency.
He didn't live his life only for his own pleasure. He felt that part of his reason for being on Earth was to make life better for others.
The English poet and satirist John Donne expressed his view of life and death: "Rage! Rage! into the night! Go not gently into the darkness!"
"I will live till I die," he always said.
When life as a single parent appeared unbelievably hard, when depression descended like a dark cloud, when the problems seemed overwhelming and unsolvable, I remembered his words, "I can't just lay down and die."

Skip to comments.NY Gun Confiscation Underway Citizens Told to Turn in Pistol Owner ID & Firearms
Posted on 04/10/2013 7:09:18 AM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet
Remember all those who denied that firearms confiscation as a result of New Yorks new gun laws was too insane to even consider?
That it was strictly in the realm of paranoid conspiracy theorists and the it cant happen here crowd?
Those were and remain some of the standard replies to anyone who even thought about the possibility, let alone gave voice to it, despite the fact that Gov Cuomo and numerous other officials made public comments about such a plan, as I discussed in my article Feinstein & Cuomo Admit Planning Australian Style Government Gun Buy Back .
Elected Officials, the media, various Gun Control Groups and their zealous forced disarmament supporters, even some firearms owners themselves all insisted it was to crazy to even consider.
Theres just one huge problem it is happening now in New York State!
It seems those that tried desperately to warn of such an insidious plot had hit the bullseye with their warnings after all. News came from multiple NY State based firearms enthusiast websites late Friday that confiscations of Pistol Owner ID Cards, as well as firearms and accessories has commenced in NY under the provisions of the horribly flawed, draconian and blatantly unconstitutional NY SAFE Act.
Those folks having their weapons and FID cards confiscated have been discovered to have been prescribed multiple different types of psychotropic drugs, such as those for Depression or Anxiety. These are known as SSRI ( Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors) class drugs and have the potential to cause serious and adverse side effects, something I wrote about extensively last week in an article that went viral in days and caused multiple Anti Gun and Progressive News Groups to initiate a concentrated denial of service hacker attack...

Civil War Two has begun.
The lawn of unintended (or intended, as the case may be) consequences rears its ugly head...
I'm guessing the whole purpose of HIPPA was to criminalize "outing" of people who are HIV+, or the rehab status of celebrities, by people who saw their medical info. The government never intended it to be a barrier to their own power.
Now you know why ObamaCare wants all medical records in a database.
Yes. Anyone. Who has taken them, ever.
My Wife was on Zoloft for a while for post-partum depression. If I lived in NY, I'd have to turn my guns in.
No joke.
And they are trying to pass an identical ban here in MN.
Sig line applies...
Depends on if you are fishing buddies with Andrew...
"He just fell over board... I tried to save him, but I couldn't get the gaff set solidly enough to pull him back into the boat..."
Yep. Going hot...
One of the hallmarks of tyranny - the law is what they say it is when they say it. The legal system just becomes another tool of oppression.
They have been inventing new forms of mental problems for years and handing out drugs to schoolchildren like candy so I guess none of these children will be able to have rights when the're adults. And Obamacare will make sure it's all in one's records. I'm sure that some of these kids do need help but I've known some kids that are just active, curious, normal kids and the teachers would rather have them drugged down than have to deal with them.
Listen to the Wehrmacht March while reading this article; it will set the mood quite appropriately...
HIPPA Is only so YOU can't see your files.

"HIPAAExceptions Providing Law Enforcement Officials and Social Service Providers Access to Protected Health Information
Alexandra Podrid1
The new Privacy Rule, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), that was enacted by Congress in 1996 and amended by the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) in 2002, may affect the ability of prosecutors, police officers and social service agencies to administer child abuse cases, because it prevents certain health care affiliates from disclosing protected health information.
HIPAA was created to provide extensive, nationwide protection to medical information by regulating how covered entities use and disclose protected health information.2 Covered entities include health plans, health care clearinghouses and any health care provider that transmits health information electronically.3 Congress established HIPAA to enable people to switch jobs without losing their health insurance, and not to interfere with law enforcement or social services. The civil and criminal penalties attached to HIPAA violations,4 however, may deter covered entities from disclosing protected health information, even when they are authorized to do so.
DHHS enacted a number of exceptions that allow covered entities to provide protected health information to law enforcement officials and social service agencies. It is imperative that law enforcement officials familiarize themselves with these regulations, so that they can continue to obtain indispensable medical evidence to effectively investigate and prosecute child abuse cases. Social service providers must also comprehend the HIPAA exceptions so that they may continue to serve victims of abuse, neglect and domestic violence. This article maps the exceptions law enforcement officials and social service agencies can utilize when requesting protected health information from covered entities.
Exceptions for Law Enforcement Access
There are a number of exceptions that permit law enforcement officials to access protected health information. These exceptions bypass the requirement that the individual consent or be given an opportunity to decide whether his or her protected health information will be disclosed.
Required by law/mandatory reporting laws: A covered entity may disclose protected health information to law enforcement officials if it is required to do so by law.5 An example would be a state law mandating the reporting of certain wounds or other physical injuries.
As permitted by a judicial officer: Law enforcement officials may obtain protected health information from a covered entity if they have a court order, warrant, subpoena or summons issued by a judicial officer or a grand jury subpoena.6
Restricted access for administrative requests: An administrative subpoena may be used to obtain protected health information. In order to use an administrative subpoena, however, the following criteria must be met: 1) The information sought must be relevant and material to a legitimate investigation, 2) the request must be specific and limited in scope to meet its intended purpose, and 3) information that does not reveal the individuals identity could not reasonably be substituted for the information sought.7
Restricted access for the purpose of identifying or locating a suspect: Except for disclosures required by law, information provided to law enforcement officials for the purpose of identifying or locating a suspect, fugitive, material witness or missing person is limited. In response to such a request, a covered entity may disclose 1) name and address, 2) date and place of birth, 3) social security number, 4) blood type, 5) type of injury, 6) date and time of treatment, 7) date and time of death if applicable and 8) description of distinguishing physical characteristics.8 When the information sought is for identification and location purposes, a covered entity may not provide any information related to an individuals DNA or DNA analysis, dental records or analysis of body fluids or tissue.9
Victims of a crime: Health care entities may also provide law enforcement officials with an individuals protected health information if the individual is a suspected victim of a crime.10 In such cases, covered entities can only disclose information if 1) the individual agrees to disclosure, or 2) the covered entity cannot obtain the individuals agreement because of incapacity or an emergency.11 In cases of incapacity or emergency, it is necessary that 1) the law enforcement official represents that such information is needed to determine whether a crime was committed by someone other than the individual and will not be used against the victim, 2) the law enforcement official represents that law enforcement activity depends on disclosure and would be materially affected by waiting for the individuals consent, and 3) the covered entity, while exercising professional judgment, determines that disclosure is in the best interest of the individual.12
Decedents: If a health care provider suspects that an individual has died as a result of criminal conduct, it may disclose protected health information about the decedent to a law enforcement official.13
Crime on premises: If a covered entity believes in good faith that protected health information is evidence of criminal conduct that occurred on the premises of the covered entity, it may disclose the information to a law enforcement official.14
Reporting crime in emergencies: A health care provider rendering emergency medical care off the premises may disclose protected health information to a law enforcement official if the disclosure is needed to alert law enforcement to 1) the commission and nature of a crime, 2) the location or victims of such crime, and 3) the identity, description and location of the perpetrator.15 This exception does not apply if the covered health care provider believes the emergency is a result of abuse, neglect or domestic violence.16
Victims of abuse, neglect or domestic violence: A covered entity that believes an individual has been the victim of abuse may disclose the individuals protected health information to a government agency that is authorized by law to receive reports of abuse, neglect or domestic violence. Such disclosures are only permitted if at least one of the following applies: 1) the disclosure is required by law, 2) the individual has agreed to the disclosure, 3) the covered entity is expressly authorized by law to disclose such information and the disclosure is necessary to prevent serious harm to someone, and 4) the covered entity is expressly authorized by law to disclose such information and the law enforcement agency represents both that the information will not be used against the individual and that law enforcement activity would be significantly hindered by waiting to get the individuals consent.17 In these cases, the covered entity must promptly inform the individual that the disclosure was made, unless 1) informing the individual would place the individual at risk of serious harm or 2) the covered entity would be informing the individuals personal representative who is responsible for the abuse, neglect or domestic violence.18
Averting a serious threat to health or safety: A covered entity may disclose protected health information if it believes: 1) the disclosure is needed to prevent or lessen a serious and imminent threat to the health or safety of a person or the public, and the recipient is able to lessen the threat; or 2) the disclosure is critical to law enforcements ability to identify or apprehend an individual who either appears to have escaped from the custody of law enforcement or made a statement admitting participation in a violent crime.19 A covered entity acting on such a belief is presumed to be acting in good faith. An entity covered by HIPAA may not disclose protected health information based on an individuals admitted participation in a violent crime if the statement was made either during therapy, counseling or treatment aimed at lessening the individuals propensity towards violence, or through a request for such therapy, counseling or treatment. The protected health information that may be disclosed under this exception is subject to the same limitations as placed on the exception made for identifying and locating a suspect.20
Jails, prisons, law enforcement custody: Correctional institutions and law enforcement officials may obtain the protected health information of individuals in their lawful custody. In such cases, however, a covered entity may only disclose information if the requesting body represents that the protected health information is necessary: 1) to provide health care to the individual, 2) to protect the health and safety of the individual or other inmates, 3) to protect the health and safety of officers, employees or others at the correctional institution, 4) to protect those involved in the transfer or transporting of the individual, 5) to promote law enforcement on the premises of the correctional institution, or 6) to maintain and administer safety, security and good order in the correctional facility.21 An individual is not subject to this exception when released on parole, probation, supervised release, or otherwise is no longer in lawful custody.
And there is more but you get the drift.
And people who have abortions of course have a right to privacy, isn't that the whole basis of Roe v Wade?
Motorhead- March or Die.
Funny how the drugs are imune from discussion. These drugs appear to turn people into homicidal maniacs (at least that is the unspoken meaning behind this), but we keep the drugs and just try to take firearms away from them.
I have said before that I think these mind-altering drugs are a problem. Americans will lose their right to be armed if this becomes a nation of crazies who cannot be trusted to be armed. It seems that some people want this to happen.
>>>Suggested scenario:
A woman has her home broken into and she is raped.
She is then told by the government social workers that counseling is available.
She avails herself of the counseling.
Now, she cant obtain a firearm to protect herself because of the psych counseling, even though she should be the one most in need of a firearm for self protection<<<
Good example. To make it even better, the rapist is still at large and has threatened to come back and kill her.
An abusive ex-boyfriend or ex-husband works as well.
Also, if they are going to take away 2nd Amendment rights from citizens, simply because they are on anti-anxiety medication, I think we should ban all those who are currently on, or who have ever taken such meds for being elected officials, appointed government officials, law enforcement officers, judges, public school teachers, etc. or from having any government jobs whatsoever.
If taking anti-anxiety meds makes somone "crazy" enough to not be allowed legal access to guns, they certainly shouldn't have access to our children, our government or our freedom.
Regardless of any laws, short of locking them up, we cannot prevent a determined nutcase from getting guns. We can prevent them from teaching our children and running our government, etc., though.
Exactly why the Democrats wanted to pass laws that allowed them to seize guns just on the information provided by "health care providers" and NOT on the findings of a judge.
Ammoland is not the most reliable of news sources.
As you said, it will turn legal gun owners into criminals.
It will also lead to many anxious or depressed legal gun owners refusing to seek any sort of counseling or treatment for fear of losing their right to keep and bear arms. This will undoubtedly lead to the deaths of many innocent people.
This is exactly why I am so worried about this "mental health" angle of attack.
Very soon, universal background checks, AKA, back door registration, will be cross referenced with digitized medical records and then this can be done on a national level.

I've already spent some hours trying to find a solution, but I couldn't, since I am not familiar with these settings, so I look for your help. This is the problem in detail:
I have a VC++ project to create a DLL that will be used as a Plug-in in an external programm. This DLL uses some MFC functions. The initial configuration of the project was:
-Use of MFC: Use MFC in a Static Library
-Common Language Runtime support: No Common Language Runtime support
-Runtime Library: Multi-threaded Debug (/MTd)
This configuration worked fine, there were no compilation errors and the resulting DLL worked correctly.
The problem came when it was necessary to add to the DLL some functions of .NET, using the namespace System and similar. To do that, I had to change the Common Language Runtime support, to Common Language Runtime Support (/clr). Then, when I tried to compile, I got this message:
'/MTd' and '/clr' command-line options are incompatible
So I changed the Runtime Library to Multi-threaded Debug DLL (/MDd). Then I got this error message:
Building MFC application with /MD[d] (CRT dll version) requires MFC shared dll version
So I also changed the Use of MFC to Use MFC in a Shared DLL.
After this, the compilation was correct. Then logically the size of the generated DLL is smaller, but this new DLL does not work correctly, the external programm in which this DLL is used crashes.
I don't know what to do to fix the problem. Maybe I need to add some other DLLs or files to the directory where the DLL is located, where the external programm uses it. But I would prefer to include a single DLL file, but this seems to be incompatible with the use of .NET functionalities.
Sorry for the long explanation. I would be very thankful is somedoby could help me.
Thank you in advanced.

If everyone wants options and versatility why not make a modular design?
You could have three parts to it ( rail / trigger guard / grip handle ) that would slide together on a dovetail type mounting system and set screws. The trigger guard would be held in place via dovetail and body/rail screw kinda like this.

I like that idea
Make the trigger guard slide onto the grip in the same fashion that the Emag battery pack slides on, and held with set screws as well (from the inside of the grip) to avoid flexing and wear along the point where the trigger guard and grip meet.

Just wanted to chime in and say I'm down with the concept as Luke last described it. As far as I'm concerned the more modular the better.
Me likey vewy muchOriginally Posted by Flatliner333
Been working on a similar concept for a few years now. Similar in concept, not quite the same mounts.To make it all work is not so easy. Making it look good is even harder. Function and form are both important when it comes to being modular.Originally Posted by Flatliner333
I'm sure Luke could figure it out. I spent about 20 minutes on paint drawing that up just to show concept but I'm sure all the measurements aren't right.My idea is this. What if the safety was built into the trigger guard's ,the guard's would have the female part of the dovetail on the top and side. The trigger would mount in the rail,the rail has the male side of the dovetail on the bottom. The top of the grip's have female and the side of the grip has male. Slide the guard down on the grip, tighten set screw. Slide the rail from the back forward. Install trigger (there is an opening in top of guard / bottom of rail ) after mag rail,sear and body are put on - the front body screw goes up through trigger guard and ties it all together. The front of the guard would only allow the grip frame rail to slide forward so much aligning the holes. Provisions for Pnue, E-Pnue or Electro could then be worked out.

I will try and make them work with standard 45 grips and offer aluminum as an option.Originally Posted by OPBN
OK, we are underway as of today…
On the Micro Rock Reg from Palmers he lists the length as 2.3" I assume it is JUST the housing (Not including the threaded piece), can someone verify this for me?
as soon as I get home I will help you on thisOriginally Posted by luke
Does this mean you are looking into a gas through LPR front grip?
ok here are the measurments.
dia: 0.865
lenght of body minus 1/8" npt (cant think of word) 2.222
with "1/8" npt input" 2.769
adjustment screw adds 0.343 backed ALL the way out with one thread in. about 0.113 when I feel it touch something
length from bottom of the body to the center of LP air out bung 0.575
hope this helps
