Legislation may be needed to improve the database used to do background checks on people who buy guns from federally licensed dealers, Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, told a group of Davenport West High School students on Friday.
Grassley met with the students for about an hour Friday as part of a weeklong series of town hall meetings Grassley has held around the state. He was in DeWitt on Thursday, and later on Friday, he went to Muscatine.
The Republican senator has been critical of President Barack Obama's proposals to deal with school violence, which were unveiled Wednesday, particularly the ban on assault-style weapons. But he singled out improving the National Instant Criminal Background Check System, which is maintained by the FBI and holds 7.3 million records, as an area needing improvement.
Several of the president's executive orders pertained to the database, which is widely considered to have flaws.
"I believe it's very important to get this database so it really works," Grassley said.
The president has proposed extending background checks to most private gun transfers, which have been estimated at
40 percent of all gun sales. Critics of the database say not requiring background checks for those transfers is the database's main flaw.
The senator did not address that matter with the students, but he did say there may need to be action taken so states boost their reporting to the database.
The White House on Wednesday cited a recent Government Accountability Report that said 17 states had submitted fewer than 10 mental health records to the database.
As for an assault weapons ban, Grassley reiterated that he is opposed to it. Later, he told a reporter while that "may be legal ... I think it's a slippery slope." Grassley earlier this week said the president was tossing aside the Second Amendment.
"Whether it's contrary to the Second Amendment or not, I will oppose going down that slippery slope," Grassley said Friday. He added he has "a certain amount of distrust about whether (Obama) really believes in the Second Amendment. I don't have proof of that, but that's a suspicion I have."
That comment echoes what Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., said Wednesday night. He said Obama "doesn't have the guts" to say he opposes the Second Amendment.
Obama has said he supports the Second Amendment.
Otherwise, students quizzed the senator on topics ranging from the fiscal cliff, the attack on the U.S. mission in Benghazi, Libya, the Affordable Care Act, school prayer and whether gay couples should have the right to adopt, among other topics.
Grassley said he meets with students at their schools because they don't come to his town hall meetings.

text: This past Sunday, I was kayaking on the Severn between Weems and College Creeks and saw what I thought was one fish swimming along the surface with two small black dorsal fins protruding approximately 4 inches out of the water. Could have been two fish swimming close together, but two distinct dorsal fins. Clearly, my first thought was a small shark. Anyone have any insight into what I saw? Thanks.

Applying to study in France: what you need to know
In 2013-2014, there were over 295,000 foreign students in France. Are you also dreaming of completing studies in a French higher education institution? Unless you are an EU national, procedures can be quite long and complicated. Currently, nearly half the foreign students are from Africa and almost a quarter come from the Middle-East, Asia or the Pacific. Learn about enrollment processes in your home country and formalities upon arrival, not forgetting visa application procedures. Get ready to study in France!
Various application procedures
To enroll in a higher education institution in France, procedures will vary depending on the country you live in and the type of study program you are aiming.
The CEF procedure, compulsory in 33 countries
In 33 countries, students wishing to study in France (first year of study or further studies) must complete the Campus France online application. This is the CEF (Centers for Studies in France) procedure, which aims to help applicants through administrative formalities until visa application. Creating your online student file will enable you to benefit from support and advice, send pre-enrollment requests to higher education institutions in France and provide further information if needed.
Countries which fall under this scheme are the following: Algeria, Argentina, Benin, Brazil, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Chili, Columbia, Comoro Islands, Congo (Brazzaville), South Korea, Ivory Coast, United States, Gabon, Guinea, India, Indonesia, Japan, Lebanon, Madagascar, Mali, Morocco, Mauritius, Mexico, Peru, Senegal, Russia, Syria, Taiwan, Tunisia, Turkey and Vietnam.
The Preliminary application for admission (TCF DAP) for other non-EU nationals
Do you have a high school diploma and wish to enroll in first or second year courses in a French university? If you aren't a citizen of a European Economic Area (EEA) member-country, the preliminary application for admission is compulsory (if you live in a country falling under the CEF scheme, this application must be done through Campus France).
What are the steps to follow?
- Complete the dossier blanc.
- Bring or send your application with all the requested supporting documents to the Cultural Services department of the French Embassy in your country.
- Take the French language proficiency test (TCF).
- If your application is accepted by one or several of the three universities you wish to study in, you must confirm your choice by mail in order to proceed with enrollment.
Have you already completed several years of higher education studies and wish to begin studying in France ? To enroll in a third year of Licence a Master's or a PhD program, you need to directly get in touch with the university.
Enrollment through Admissions Post Bac (APB): EU citizens or applicants to selective programs
To study in France, you must apply through the Admissions Post Bac website if:
- you are a citizen of a European Economic Area member country and wish to enroll in a first year of Licence or in another study program (BTS or DUT programs, specialized schools…),
- you are a citizen of a third country without a CEF scheme and wish to enroll in a university selective program (IUT, DEUST…) or in another type of selective program (BTS, CPGE, specialized schools…).
What are the steps to follow?
Enrollment procedures follow a strict schedule: make sure you know the different deadlines!
- Create your online student file and apply.
- Prepare and send your paper applications along with the supporting documents requested by the different higher education institutions.
- Online, respond to the enrollment offers you receive.
- Once you have definitively accepted an offer, you must get in touch with the institution for administrative enrollment.
Getting a student visa
Are you a citizen of a European Economic Area member country? Then you don't need a visa to study in France. On the other hand, nationals of all other countries must apply for a visa. Most applicants request an extended-stay visa with residency permit or VLS-TS (there also are specific visas for short stays), which is valid for a year.
Before you leave
You can apply for a VLS-TS at the local French consulate in your country only if:
- you received a pre-enrollment acceptance letter following the preliminary application for admission or Admission Post Bac procedures,
- you finished the Campus France procedure and an appointment at the consulate has been scheduled.
You will need to bring a French Immigration OFFI form along with the visa application form and required documents. Also remember to select an insurance solution for international students.
Upon arrival in France
You have finally reached your destination! Your last task will be to validate your student visa at the local immigration office (OFFI).
What are the steps to follow?
- Upon arrival in France, send the OFFI form (by registered mail with confirmation of receipt) and a copy the pages of your passport which contain your identity information, the visa and the stamp proving your date of entry
- The OFFI will send you an appointment notification.
- Complete the OFFI registration formalities within three months of your arrival in France: medical visit or orientation session and payment of à €58 fee.
- The OFFI will validate your VLS-TS visa by placing a sticker on your passport.

OK, here's an irony our commentator Frank Deford has noticed. While many pro American athletes are super-rich, the leagues they play in are becoming bastions of equality.
FRANK DEFORD: Yes, yes, this is about sports. So whatever your ideology, this brief time is supposed to be a respite from politics. But bear with me. You see, political innocent I may be, but I find great irony in that while everybody agrees that there is massive inequality in the United States today, the one percent and the 99 percent business, and not since the Gilded Age, et cetera, it's now in sports where the American Dream still lives more than ever.
It used to be, when social mobility was at its apex here, that was the reverse in sports. The leagues were invariably dominated by dynasties. The Yankees, of course, were the American pharaohs. The Celtics ruled basketball, the Canadians hockey, the Browns and then the Packers football. Once you got to the top, a team or a franchise tended to stay in the social register. Bad teams, most often in the smaller cities, remained a permanent underclass.
But now with salary caps and benevolent socialism, if a team has wise management, it has a chance - even if it's a franchise in an itsy-bitsy market. Can you believe that the four teams with the best records in the NBA now are Indiana, Portland, San Antonio and Oklahoma City representing four of the 10 smallest metropolitan markets in the league? The rich in American sport really aren't guaranteed to just get richer anymore. The middle-class still can aspire to the championship country club.
And the people of flyover country who distrust that elite New York-Washington snob axis are in hog heaven. Not a single one of the nine - count them - nine New York area teams have either made the playoffs or look like they're going to this year - all that money, all that clout, and all bums.
And Washington teams aren't much better than Washington politics. The Nationals collapsed, the Redskins are a joke franchise, nasty name to boot, and the Wizards aren't living up to their nice name. Well, the Capitals are winners, sort of. But then no formula is perfect. Wrigley Field will be a hundred years old this spring and the Cubs are still losers, a hundredfold.
Sports also truly celebrates today what used to be another certified Americanism: the second chance. All sorts of regular-season mediocrities, like the reigning Super Bowl champions, the Baltimore Ravens, have gotten hot with a wild card or a low seed and won it all.
So if Horatio Alger has no place left in American society, in the arena he's still suited up, pleading: Send me in, Coach. Of course, there are always exceptions. Did I mention the Cubs? And, of course, some things never change. I did mention the Cubs, didn't I?
GREENE: This never changes, Frank Deford joins us Wednesday. On MORNING EDITION from NPR News, I'm David Greene.
And I'm Linda Wertheimer.

Tweet #iamdesirulez
31-years-old Bipasha Basu signed her first International Project Singularity with English-French director Roland Joffe.
She plays the role of a Maratha warrior named Tulaja Naik, from the 18th century. The flick revolves around the story of First Anglo-Maratha War of the 18th century and includes four characters- an American marine biologist and his researcher lover, a British officer in colonial India and the Indian Women he falls in love with.
It is a $33 million flick and is penned down by Ajey Jhankar.
The film will be shot in Australia and India and she will be flying to Brisbane in the first week of November.
Bips is one lucky female who had just a brief meeting with Joffe. Sources say he was very impressed with her voice and her personality, and offered her the role.
All the best Bips!!!

of Minnesota site where I found a paper, Balanced and Restorative
Justice for Juveniles, A Framework for Juvenile Justice in the 21st

the judicial system and practice in effect at Sudbury Valley School
puts it very clearly in the "restorative" column. I would be

Washington, (News4us.com) March 15, 2011
Bankruptcy filings in the federal courts rose 8 percent in calendar year 2010, according to data released today by the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts. Total filings remain at a five-year high.
The number of bankruptcies filed in the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2010, totaled 1,593,081, up from 1,473,675 bankruptcies filed in CY 2009.
Filings have grown steadily since CY 2006, when bankruptcy filings totaled 617,660, in the first full 12-month period after the Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005 (BAPCPA) took effect. An historic high in the number of bankruptcy filings was seen in CY 2005, when over 2 million bankruptcies were filed in anticipation of BAPCPA.
Statistics released today include business and non-business filings for the 12-month period ending December 31, 2010 (Table F-2, 12-month); a comparison of December 2009 and 2010 filings (Table F); 4th quarter filings (Table F-2, 3-month); monthly filings for the 12-month period ending December 31, 2010 (Table F-2, Year-Month); and filings per capita.
Business and Non-Business Filings
The majority of bankruptcy filings involve non-business debts. In CY 2010, they totaled 1,536,799, up 9 percent from the 1,412,838 non-business bankruptcy filings in CY 2009.
Business filings totaled 56,282, down 7 percent from the 60,837 business filings in CY 2009.
First Quarter of FY 2011
The last three months of CY 2010 were the first quarter of the Judiciary's 2011 fiscal year. The number of bankruptcies filed during the first quarter of fiscal year 2011 (October 1-December 31, 2010) was 370,080, down 1 percent from the 372,203 filings in the first quarter of fiscal year 2010.
Filings by Chapter
In CY 2010, filings rose under Chapters 7, 11, 12 and 13 of the U.S. bankruptcy code.
- Chapter 7 filings totaled 1,139,601, up 8 percent from the 1,050,832 Chapter 7 filings reported in CY 2009.
- Chapter 11 filings fell 10 percent to 13,713 from the 15,189 filings in CY 2009.
- Chapter 13 filings rose 8 percent to 438,913 from the 406,962 filings in CY 2009.

Canyon Tours
The parts of the Grand Canyon that most people visit are on the South Rim of the canyon. The most popular way to visit the South Rim is to drive there. But, for many years now, people have found this to be, depending on where they are coming from, a long, expensive journey with limited possibilities. This has spawned an industry, based almost entirely in Las Vegas, that flies or busses travelers on helicopter tours to the Grand Canyon. Seen from a helicopter, the Grand Canyon is an awesome spectacle. A helicopter tour of the Grand Canyon is probably one of the most memorable trips that even the most jaded traveler can take.
It doesn't take much imagination to recognize the photo opportunities and the life time memories that a helicopter ride through the Grand Canyon would produce.
Not everything that happens in Vegas has to stay in Vegas. Treat yourself to a Grand Canyon helicopter tour and when you get back from Vegas, you will want to tell everyone about it.

Hi Everyone,
I would say its great to be here, but in all honesty i would give anything to never have to be on this website. My name is Sareina. I lost my son Gavyn Parker on September 5th, 2010. I was 38 weeks pregnant when I went into labor and delivered him. I'll never forget September 4th. My boyfriend's sister's birthday is sep. 4th and she always joked that she wanted us to have Gavyn on her birthday. Well that day rolled around and around 9am I went into labor.
The Wednesday before that I went in for my weekly appointment and everything was fine. Gavyn's heartbeat was at 145, he was measuring at 8lbs 9oz, and i was dilated to 3cm. My doctor asked me if I was ok to go another week and if I had not gone into labor by next Thursday he would go ahead and induce me because Gavyn was already so big. I was thrilled. Me and my boyfriend called everyone told them the amazing news that he would be here within a week.
That Saturday morning I went into labor. Starting off with small cramps I figured it was just braxton hicks again. Around lunch time I was starting to feel them closer and closer together and much harder. I called my doctor and he told me to come on in and get checked out it sounded like i was in labor. I was so excited! We waited a little bit longer because i wanted a natural birth, around 6pm that night we finally went into the hospital. I was so happy. We went into the triage room and that's when my entire life went upside down. I changed and then they started to hook me up to all the machines. That's when they couldn't find Gavyn's heartbeat. I could tell on the faces of my nurses that somethings was wrong, but all they kept saying was it was probably the way he was laying and they were going to get the ultrasound machine to see him. My doctor came in and took a look around.
I'll never forget the look my doctor gave me when he knew. He simply turned to me and said Sareina it should be really easy to find a heartbeat and I just cant find one. I completely lost it.
Gavyn Parker had passed away that wednesday night after my doctor appointment according the autopsy and we never found out why. He was 8lb 6.3oz and 21 inches long. He had a small amount of black hair, and he looked just like me. I miss my baby more than anything in the entire world.
I'm here to talk to people who have been through this same situation as me and can actually give me advice. because they are days still, 6 months later, that I just dont want to get out of bed. i need help

"Free Range… Kids"? When I first read that headline, I thought maybe I was gonna see a good diet article on how my omnivore friends can eat a baby goat without the guilt. Alas, it was just another article on bad parents. Ones who let their kids run around town free "without the worry". And by "without worry" they mean "without supervision".

"Beach body ready" ad: is it sexist?
Do you think this is sexist? When this advertisement from protein world popped up on a subway wall, posing the inquiry "Are you beach body ready?"

Life as we know it has changed forever…Yes that day has come, and all too quickly I might add, when my coffee machine has inexplicably stopped working, right in the middle of making me a delicious and much-needed mocha.
I was counting on that mocha to give me inspiration for my next blog when suddenly I realised that it had!
This particular ball started rolling when I saw an invitation from Carmel Boutchard to like her FB page (Symmetry). An article caught my eye (source: http://www.boredpanda.com) because it was about how we 'Western World dwellers' find it so easy to whinge about the awful things that have simply ruined our day.
The comments ranged from complaining about having to wake up for the ironing lady who hadn't arrived to waiting for 15 mins in a salad bar queue only to find they had run out of cous cous!
I loved the complaint about the ignomy of having bought a toaster only to find that it didn't have a bagel setting while another complained in disgust about the quality of the massage she had just received in Indonesia.
So what do you do when your coffee machine dies?
Well I for one, realise how bloody lucky I am to:
(a) have a coffee machine in the first place
(b) live in a nice home with working electricity that can power a coffee machine
(c) have an income stream that allows me to afford such things
(d) live in a country with an economy that rewards effort
In other words, remember to count your blessings!
Some people have to be the ironing lady because that's the only work they can get; some people don't have supermarkets, let alone salad bars or cous cous; some people couldn't afford a toaster and don't have electricity; while some people have to give numerous massages to fat, ungrateful holiday-makers just to scrape enough money to keep a roof over their family's head tonight.
Other dramas I have whinged about recently myself include: having our air-con pack up on a 35 degree day; the pool at our strata complex being out of action for several days; and my car being on its last legs!
So how do we snap out of our First World pity-party?
One of the things my coach got me to do last year was to start a jar of happiness and gratitude. Trust me when I say that it is a very rewarding exercise.
You find an empty, clean jar to keep on your desk and every day, or as often as you remember, write little notes of gratitude for the things in your life that you appreciate or that have made you happy. When you get to the end of the year, you open the jar and read all of the messages you have written to yourself. This simple exercise makes you happier and more appreciative of your life with each note, each day, but reading the whole lot together is a really uplifting treat for your soul.
When I read some of them to my girlfriend, Joanne, she said "My goal is to make sure that there are even more of those notes about me next year".
Perhaps we should all make it our goal to impact positively and with kindness on the lives of more people we encounter, each and every day.
I'll leave you with that thought 😀
Until we meet next time – here's a quick reminder that my latest book is now available for pre-order, ready for release very soon. It's called 'If Life's Worth Doing, It's Worth Doing Well – Finding Sane Fulfillment in an Insane World'

Are you a Nascar fan? If so then Nascar chess set pieces may be the perfect set for you. Despite what some might tell you, the National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing (NASCAR) is not simply a bunch of auto enthusiasts going for a Sunday drive in circles. It is today the most popular spectator sport in the United States and its popularity continues to grow. It appeals to the common man - or woman, or child - just as much as it does to auto enthusiasts.
It has during its 53-year history portrayed street-going, recognizable consumer owned "stock" vehicles as technologically advanced marvels of auto engineering ingenuity and innovation. Unlike other forms of vehicle racing where the race car is specifically designed for that particular type of competition, NASCAR has attracted a wide diverse of participation from many different auto manufacturers. In fact, the very first official stock car division race had nine different manufacturers participating including Oldsmobile, Mercury, Lincoln, Kaiser, Hudson, Ford, Chrysler, Cadillac and Buick.
Although today's NASCAR auto is far more technologically advanced than its consumer counterpart, the treatment of racing as a sport has also evolved. Today's drivers stay in top physical shape in order to control a heavy 800 horse powered moving machine running at speeds near 300 mph just inches off the bumper of the car in front. These are experienced athletes with highly-honed skills that if they make one wrong move - whamo - the game may be over. They are definite road warriors.
Which when you really think about it, makes the NASCAR setting a perfect choice for a chess set battleground. Position is everything in a NASCAR race just as it is in the world of chess. And, move making is the decision process compelling a driver to victory just as the moves in a chess board will determine the game's outcome. Both contests demand strategy and skill.

During the
The report, "Restocking the Shelves," releases survey results collected from 139 different Salvation Army officers and employees across
The "Restocking the Shelves" report is the first time that The Salvation Army has released statistics and data from its national network of food centres and programs. The survey and subsequent report were conducted as a result of individual accounts that pantry levels were alarmingly low this year. A spike in demand coupled by an overall drop in supplies has led to a downward trend that has left many shelves empty this fall.
"As a national trend, it appears that our food services and programs are taking a hit from the prolonged effects of the recession," said
The Salvation Army is the nation's largest provider of direct non-governmental social service, serving 2.6 million meals last year alone. The public is encouraged to donate food items, make in-kind donations or volunteer their time at a The Salvation Army centre.
The detailed findings from "Restocking the Shelves" are available online at www.SalvationArmy.ca.

Come join us Monday night for the Assembly's first-ever Magic Showcase, to be held at the Dozen Street lounge in East Austin. The evening will feature magic, music, mind-reading and more — including wacky open-mic material. The show starts at 7 p.m., and will be held in lieu of the regular Assembly 206 meeting.
The Assembly showcase is open to the public, and those under 18 are welcome as long as they are accompanied by a parent or guardian. (And please don't even THINK of ordering alcohol if you're under age.) There's no cover charge, although tips and donations will be graciously accepted. All proceeds benefit the club, including 10 percent of bar sales.
Even if you're not performing, please come out to support your fellow Assembly members. Our volunteers include The Girl Who Knows, Brad Henderson, Steve Farmer, Shelby Parsons, John Maverick, Turning Tricks with The Darlings, Cranius Astounding, Helena Back and Peter the Adequate.
One final note: we need folding chairs for the performance. If you have some to lend us, please contact Jake Dyer at 512 658-0017. Or just show up early to Dozen Street and bring a few with you.
Dozen Street is located at 1808 East 12th Street, in East Austin. Free parking is directly across the street. The entrance is on 12th just west of Chicon.
