Naira Cofreces died Sunday of multiple injuries, including bruising to the left side of her brain, officials said.
“First there was a verbal altercation and then she was kicked, punched and Naira’s head was smashed against a wall,” Judge Maria Laura Durante told Telam, the Argentine state news agency. The judge also said this is a case of “aggravated homicide because there might’ve been premeditation.”
Officials say the teen was attacked last Wednesday at about 10 p.m., after leaving the night school she attended in the city of Junín, about 260 kilometers (161 miles) west of Buenos Aires. Her attackers, ages 17, 22 and 29, were waiting for her after school. The two younger ones were her classmates. All three have been arrested and charged with aggravated homicide, authorities said.
“There’s no clear motive. We have testimony that suggests the motive could’ve been another girl or because they (the victim and her friends) acted as if they were more beautiful than the rest and dressed better than them,” Durante told Telam.
A close friend of Cofreces told CNN affiliate Channel 9 the dispute started over differences that the victim and her alleged attackers had over looks and demeanor.
“She (one of the attackers) would tell her that she had a snobby face, an old woman’s face, that she thought she was more beautiful than her and that she walked as if she were a model. That’s how the whole problem started,” said the friend, who was not identified because she’s a minor.
Cofreces went home after the attack, but was taken to Agudos General Hospital the following morning. “She came the day after she was beaten up, we did a tomography and discovered a big hematoma on the left side of her brain, so we decided to operate,” Dr. Carlos Garbe told Telam.
A new tomography revealed more bruising of the brain. leading to a second surgery. “After the second surgery, she continued to show complications which worsened until she died,” Garbe said.

Young people who start smoking by using e-cigarettes, which contain nicotine but no tobacco tar or smoke, are more likely to eventually smoke real cigarettes–and less likely to quit smoking altogether than those who do not use e-cigarettes, according to a new study published in JAMA Pediatrics. The New York Times has more on the study, which is getting a divided response from experts:
The study’s lead author, Stanton Glantz, a professor of medicine at the University of California, San Francisco, who has been critical of the devices, said the results suggested that e-cigarettes, whose use is growing rapidly among youth and adults, were leading to less quitting, not more.
“The use of e-cigarettes does not discourage, and may encourage, conventional cigarette use among U.S. adolescents,” the study concluded. It was published online in JAMA Pediatrics on Thursday.
But other experts said the data did not support that interpretation. . They said that just because e-cigarettes are being used by youths who smoke more and have a harder time quitting does not mean that the devices themselves are the cause of those problems. It is just as possible, they said, that youths who use the devices were heavier smokers to begin with or would have become heavy smokers.
“The data in this study do not allow many of the broad conclusions that it draws,” said Thomas J. Glynn, a researcher at the American Cancer Society.
The study is likely to further stir the debate over what electronic cigarettes mean for the nation’s 45 million smokers, three million of whom are adolescents. Some experts worry that e-cigarettes is a gateway to smoking real cigarettes for young people, though most say the data is too skimpy to settle the issue. Others hope the devices could be a path to quitting.
So far, the overwhelming majority of young people who use e-cigarettes also smoke real cigarettes, a large federal survey published last year found.
Still, while e-cigarette use among youth doubled from 2011 to 2012, cigarette smoking for youth has continued to decline. The smoking rate hit a record low in 2013 of 9.6 percent, down by two-thirds from its peak in 1997.
The new study drew on broad federal survey data from more than 17,000 middle school and high school students in 2011 and more than 22,000 in 2012. But instead of following the same students over time – which many experts say is crucial to determine whether there has been a progression from e-cigarettes to actual smoking — the study examined two different groups of students, essentially creating two snapshots.

Teens who smoke cigarettes–even those who don’t smoke “heavily,” can quickly alter their brain structure in ways that were previously thought to be reserved for long-time smokers. These are the findings of a new study published in the journal Neuropsychopharmacology, which found that smoking one pack of cigarettes or less each day can lead to brain patterns that lock people into dependence on nicotine. More from Time.com:
Add a Comment
[Edythe] London and her colleagues focused on a brain region called the insula, since previous studies in animal and adults showed that its size and volume were affected by smoking. Of the regions in the cortical, or memory, awareness and language parts of the brain, the insula contains the most receptors for nicotine. The region is responsible for decision-making and helping to establish a person’s conscious awareness of his internal state. In studies of stroke patients, smokers who lost function of the right insula in the stroke quit smoking, and reported feeling no cravings for nicotine. And in earlier studies London’s team conducted, they found a strong relationship between how much smokers who watched videos of people smoking experienced cravings for cigarettes and the activity of the insula, which lit up on PET scans.
When London’s team looked at the brains of the 18 smoking teens and 24 non-smoking adolescents, aged 16 to 21 years, using structural MRI, they found no differences overall in the insula region. But a closer examination revealed that the right insula of the smokers was thinner than those of the nonsmokers.
“The brain is still undergoing development when someone is in their late teens,” she says. “It’s possible that smoking during this period could have effects that could alter tobacco dependence later in life, and that the insult could alter the trajectory of brain development.”
While the study doesn’t establish whether the differences in the insula can lead to smoking, or is the result of smoking, London says it highlights the role that the brain region may play in how people respond to nicotine and cigarettes. “I think this is very exciting because it points to a vulnerability, a potential vulnerability factor either to become nicotine dependent or for the effects of smoking to ultimately alter the trajectory of brain development,” she says. That trajectory could affect not only smoking behavior but decision-making in general, since the insula is important in such assessments.

Fourteen-year-old Will Hart has made headlines, and cast a positive light on a very snowy winter, by creating a simple message into the snow on top of a parking garage visible from his mother’s hospital room, where she is undergoing treatment for a recently diagnosed leukemia. Today.com reports:
Add a Comment
To boost her spirits, the teen made a simple gesture that brought joy not only to his mom, Shari Hart, but to many others at Rush University Medical Center in Chicago as well.
On Saturday, as Will headed to the hospital with his dad and uncle, the trio shuffled their feet through the snow on top of a parking garage to form a message from Will: “Hi Mom,” with a smiley face inside the O just for fun.
From the garage across the street, he called Hart and coaxed her to her 14th floor window, where she proudly waved down to her son. The snowy note came as Hart, who has acute myeloid leukemia, was exhausted from chemotherapy.
“It was very sweet and I felt very uplifted,” said Hart, 48. “My son is an amazing 14-year-old with an ability to make me smile any time of day.”
It’s not the only heartwarming snow message appearing outside of hospitals. Earlier this week, an unknown woman and man stomped the word “Love” and a peace symbol outside of the St. Cloud Hospital in Minnesota.
After visiting his wife in the hospital, Hart’s husband, Tim, felt the trio should add to their message to inspire fellow patients and the doctors and nurses caring for them. They planned for “God Bless You All,” but ran out of space, with room only for: “God Bless U” in large capital letters.
“It was a proud mommy moment, and being married to someone who wants to send a message to so many people is beyond wonderful,” said Hart, married for 24 years. “The amount of love there is just incredible.”
Will noticed that people were watching from other windows in the hospital, some waving and jumping up and down with excitement.
One of those was Angela Washek, a surgical intensive care unit nurse, who snapped a photo and shared it with hospital officials. After the hospital posted the photo on its Facebook page Monday, Will’s 18-year-old sister, Hannah, identified her family. “It brought joy to my whole unit and our patients’ families just as much as I’m sure it brought joy to your family,” Washek wrote on Facebook to Hannah.

Middle- and high-school students who drink alcohol may actually be getting a social payoff for their behavior in the form of a greater number of friends, according to a new study published in the journal Addictive Behaviors. Reuters has more:
Previous studies have found friend groups can influence choices about alcohol, but haven’t looked at the possible social payoffs of drinking.
“There has not been much data to support that drinking among teenagers directly leads to higher popularity and more friendships,” said Peter Delany. He is the director of the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration’s (SAMHSA) Center for Behavioral Health Statistics and Quality in Rockville, Maryland.
Delany was not part of the study team, which was led by Mir M. Ali, also from SAMHSA.
“The fact remains that underage drinking is linked to a long list of adverse health and behavioral consequences, including the deaths of thousands of adolescents and young adults each year,” Delany told Reuters Health in an email.
Ali and colleagues analyzed data from a national study of 7th through 12th graders from 132 schools who were surveyed in 1994. The survey included a variety of questions on drinking and substance use, number of friends, friends of friends, home life and other factors.
Teens who reported occasional drinking and getting drunk tended to have higher “social connectedness” than their abstaining peers. That was especially true for white students.
Getting drunk seemed to be more important for popularity than just drinking in general. Kids who drank at all reported having an extra half a friend, on average, and those who got drunk reported one additional friend compared to non-drinkers.
The findings “provide new evidence on the motivation behind adolescent drinking,” the researchers wrote in the journal Addictive Behaviors.
The researchers added that healthy behaviors, like participating in sports, are also linked with better social connectedness.

Santa Rosa, Cali...
I used the Magic Slip-On Apron pattern from Amy Barickman’s book. I made a few changes. I made the apron with a rounded neckline and cut off the back skirt curve so it would tie more tightly. I added longer ties so that I could tie it either front or back. Instead of joining the back neck pieces, I left them open and added a button. My apron is reversible for two looks in one. This is a wonderful pattern. So comfortable.

So good! Went from no sounds to nice musical control in seconds using my Yamaha WX5 with the iRig MIDI and a lightning adaptor. Any ideas if there is a way to use the lip sensor on the WX5 for pitch bend? I tried a few different things (performance > pitch bend would seem to make the most sense), but no luck so far.

Unpackaged her this week, and today finally got to start making! I have some past experience with an Epilog at a maker space, but it’s been quite a while, and so had to get through the first chunk of my learning curve today re: file set up, starting to play with different materials, etc.
Had fun making plant labels-- I’ve done them before out of wood (using bulk box of untreated whitewood labels from greenhouse supply company), but thought I’d see what I could do with what I had around. They really don’t need to be permanent, and I find it quite helpful to have some up to date info on them, because I inevitably lose my sheet of paper of what was planted when, et al. I love mat board as a pretty sturdy and readily-available free/used/cheap medium. It was sunny in Michigan and 40, so much warmer and a great day to do a first planting of cool weather crops in my little hoophouse. I experimented with both mat board and cardboard (tried two different settings). No masking, as I’m fine with some burn marks-- they’re going to get dirty anyway. The mat board did better of course, but cardboard wasn’t half bad-- this was thicker corrugated so it flops a bit when you try to stick it into the ground-- might be better to put it on a skewer-- then the skewer is what sticks into the ground.
Also, designed some honeycomb earrings that I printed on the Proofgrade maple hardwood, as well as a undefined-use honey-comb shaped thing as an experiment.
Downloaded, printed, and assembled an OpenDesk chair that I scaled down from CNC and human size, and now making adjustments on the design that I think will improve it and taking away elements like the drill holes. Rubber-bands were being temporarily used as clamps. Fun to see the great furniture we can adapt to laser scale.

Time flies when a lot is going on, and before we know it the hustle and bustle of the season has ground to a halt, it is winter, it is my time for travel, and now it is February. The thoughts of another season are now upon us. It doesn’t seem possible that a year has passed since the last blog post – once again, time has gone by in the blink of an eye. Reflection is a recurring theme for me on Iona, and when I look back at 2018, the resounding word ringing in my ears in ‘connectivity’. We lose various connections all the time on Iona due to our geographically extreme location. In turn this loss of connection, leads to the strengthening of others.
Early in 2018, Iona had a spate of inability to connect – no phone signal, no ferries, and worst of all, no internet. The realisation of our dependency was immense – not only for personal use, but also in terms of how much business now relies on the internet. For some businesses on the island, this meant no card payments, not knowing if any bookings had been made, some stock orders are only available online. No mobile phone signal added to the drama – emergency land line calls to ex-staff members on the mainland were required to keep life moving. Boat trips to Fionnphort were made in the hope of a 3G or 4G signal. The pier became the hub of island life as we all huddled around the Cal-Mac public Wi-Fi; when it chose to work.
However, these failed connections of the technological variety forced us to connect more as people. We had no choice but to be present in our surroundings. There could be no incessant scrolling of social media. My phone battery lasted substantially longer. I noticed that I slept better and vowed to maintain the action of ‘switching off’ at night when the internet returned. I have (mostly) succeeded. Our world had become silent unless we spoke to those around us. And whether local or tourist, the one thing that was connecting us all at this point, was of course Iona. I have always enjoyed listening to what brings people to Iona, and I find it truly fascinating how all the different people I meet came to be here. Without the ability to report to friends and family back home, instead we began reporting to each other in the place that bound us all. I have previously written about the connection to the world that Iona has. In the experience of a modern-day lack of connection, we began to experience a connection to each other and the island that was perhaps heightened. To think that not all that long ago, this is how it always was.
Talking to people has always been a favourite pastime of mine, I find our ability to connect over a range of subjects is incredible. Early in the season, some of our first guests were from Alaska. Conversations over breakfast led to a season long obsession with Alaska, and ultimately to me booking flights to visit in December. What I found was a striking similarity between Iona and Alaska. Both are remote, both are very seasonal and dependent upon the weather, and both destinations rely heavily on transport for supplies and the almighty connection. I was in Fairbanks when the Anchorage earthquake hit; and as the road out of the city had split apart, the concern became about whether the deliveries and post would arrive in Fairbanks as usual. Much like when a connection goes off here – either the Oban ferry or a closure on the road across Mull. Alaskans watch the weather continually to check the ferry (and in their case, flight) statuses in the same way as islanders on Iona do. I experienced a weather-related delay flying from Juneau to Seattle. My experience with this type of delay made me well-equipped to deal with the not so surprising announcement that my flight had been cancelled until further notice. Living in the middle of nowhere and being so reliant on connections sure does teach us many coping mechanisms!
The way that the weather dictates one of our important connections is a reminder of the connection on Iona I feel the most – the connection to nature. I love that the weather is discussed in great detail and dictates the opening and closing of the tiny little island. I love how the wind and a high swell can render transport connections useless – a drastic reminder that nature is the strongest force of all. I also love the speed at which the weather changes here. It is rare that there isn’t a clear patch during the day, where incredible light is able to shine through. We are continually aware of the power of nature here. This connect is something I miss on a lot of my travels and am revelling in now I am back home on the island.
It is intriguing to think that when one connection fails, another one strengthens. Our connection to nature here heightens our awareness and adaptability in potentially stressful situations. We plan ahead and learn to enjoy moments as they come – a bright rainbow after a storm. A delivery van that braved the forecast. Perhaps it is our remoteness that teaches us to be grateful and thankful of all our connections – but also how to live without them.

Posidonio in Samos
Posidonio is a small nice village with a small beach in a beautiful cove with swimming distance to Turkey. You can not be more close to Turkey without physically being there. Posidonio was previously an important fishing village, but today tourism dominates, although there are still some fishing boats left.
The beach in Posidonio.
As mentioned, the beach is small, and very narrow, there is not room for so many people. Still, there are many who go to Posidonio. But it's not the beach that attracts, it's the beautiful surroundings and Taverna Posidonio that partly stands in the sea. From some tables you can sit and eat while dipping your feet in the water. When you have finished eating, just jump into the water. Fishing boats and expensive sailing-boats and motorboats are moored outside the taverna. Posidonio is really worth the long trip.
A few hundred meters before Posidonio lies Sideras beach. It is not a beach that you will send MMS of to your friends back home, but if you want to have some privacy, and maybe skinny-dip for a while, you can do it here.
Klima beach a few kilometres west of Posidonio is a better beach than Sideras. Also here is a cosy taverna.
View over Posidonio. The high mountains in the background belong to Turkey.

This article first appeared in the Mar/Apr 2010 issue of World Gaming magazine.
Poker has already taken the world by storm, and its final destination is Asia. It is big business, and its stars are as well-known as elite athletes and pop stars throughout most parts of the world. Only ten years ago, poker was a game still in decline.
It was still a part of American culture, but it was a game that was played at home over a few beers, and by a small group of professionals in places like Las Vegas and Atlantic City. The glory days – where the Wild West was carved on the back of a bottle of whiskey, a six shooter and a deck of cards – seemed to be a long distant memory. By chance, however, the moons aligned for the game. Poker was catapulted into the mainstream, rewriting the history books to include the modern day gold rush that is poker.
The first and most important thing about poker is that it has many elements that make it such a great game for the player. The gambler loves poker as the action is relentless, and you get to compete against other players. It’s one thing to take money off the casino, but it is even more of a challenge to win it off a fellow player. The game also attracts non-gamblers, who view the game as a skill-based pastime. Many poker players would argue that the game – if played properly – is a sure bet. That’s not to say that a good player will win every time they play; but they say that if you are good at the game and consistently do the right thing, you will always win in the long run. Tournament poker is also considered by many as a sport. It’s not a test of athletic prowess, but it is certainly a competition – and has all the elements of competitive sporting contests.
The other thing that has helped the game dramatically was that the game was perfect for the internet. People could play poker in the comfort and safety of their own home. Many poker players still prefer the challenge and excitement of live poker; but others who enjoy the game don’t want to face other people across the table in a live environment. Internet poker is huge business, and the leading companies are estimated to be worth billions of dollars. Recently the world record was smashed at ‘PokerStars‘, with over 300,000 people playing online simultaneously. That is just one of the sites. It’s not inconceivable that a million players could be playing online simultaneously at absolute peak periods. These figures seem unbelievable, but sit up and take notice because they are true.
Internet poker was the tool that helped the boom, but it certainly wasn’t the spark that ignited the explosion. There are a few events that will go down in the history of poker, which will be considered as defining moments. In 2003, an American bookkeeper from down south played an online satellite to win his way into the World Series of Poker. It cost him less than US$50, and he won the dream holiday of a lifetime – and took his place amongst the world’s poker elite in the US$10,000 buy-in Main Event in Las Vegas. After five days of play the young man was the only one left standing, and he had instantly become a multi-millionaire. His name, if you can believe it, was Chris Moneymaker!
The second big thing that happened was that some crazy person in the UK thought that poker might make good television. A show called Late Night Poker was getting incredible late night ratings, and gained a cult following. The US had dabbled in poker television; but then one year an ice-hockey players’ strike left ESPN with a huge hole in their programming to fill, and the unthinkable happened: in a moment of desperation, they thought they might be able to peddle poker – to keep at least someone from turning to another channel. The hockey would never get another look in! For some reason poker makes nail biting television, and Americans went crazy for it. Real people were being filmed, playing for life-changing amounts of money. This created raw, pure emotion – and that is something that has always made good television. This is why celebrity poker is far less popular than watching real poker players, because the game is at its best when the money is real and the outcome means everything to its participants.
The boom had come, and it had started in America as the country already had the poker culture bubbling under the surface. It didn’t take much to drag it out, dust it off and repackage it for a 21st century audience. The cowboys of the Old West played poker; the hustlers and gangsters of the 1920s played poker; and everyone from Presidents to college kids to blue collar workers had experienced a Saturday night poker game in some form or another. After 2003, poker players were the new rock stars. People would line up for hours to get an autograph of Phil Ivey or Daniel Negraneu. Players like Scotty Nguyen, Johnny Chan, Doyle Brunson and Phil Hellmuth were ready made stars: they were smart, had personality, and were marketable. The other great thing was that poker was obtainable for anyone who knew the very basics of the game. Pay the entry fee, take your seat, and you could mix it with the best – if your skill, nerve and luck was up to it.
Great Britain was certainly the next in line, and they just worked on the success that Late Night Poker had already created. The English were big gamblers, and poker had been featured in blockbuster movies like Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. All of a sudden there was nothing cooler than playing poker. They also had an excellent array of fast-talking, sardonic players who offered a uniquely British style – and helped to displace any misconception that it was merely an American pastime. The next two places where the game took off were in Scandinavia and Australia, as both places had highly skilled players who achieved excellent results on the world stage. The rest of Europe and South America would soon follow, and these two large market places are behind the most recent surge in numbers over the last couple of years.
Napoleon once described China as a sleeping giant – and this was not a criticism, but a statement that the West didn’t understand Asia. Asia has again been earmarked as the sleeping giant of poker, but it will happen when Asia is ready to embrace it – not when the senior players in the poker game want it to happen. It is not a question of ‘if’ – it is only a question of ‘when’. There are some problems that the game has faced in the region, which has helped to slow the process. Firstly, there are many countries in the region that have very strict gaming laws, which make it difficult not just to play the game, but to promote it. This has meant that it hasn’t made it onto mainstream television, and it has made it hard for internet poker sites to penetrate the market.
Macau has embraced the game since 2007. In the Philippines where the restrictions aren’t as onerous, the game has flourished. Japan and Korea have quite tough restrictions on poker. The Japanese and Korean people love the game, but politicians can be scared of large numbers of people who want change.
There are always big turn-outs of Japanese and Korean players at international tournaments, so change is inevitable. The new Singaporean casinos have suggested that poker is on their agenda, and again it is only a question of ‘when’ not ‘if’.
There are some big players in the game making moves in the area, which will certainly help the growth of the game. There are two major tours that are going head-tohead in the region, which can only be good for the game. The first is the Asian Poker Tour, which has completed its third season; and its fourth will kick off later this year in the Philippines. They have had some excellent tournaments throughout the region, and in August last year held the inaugural Battle of the Nations tournament, which saw fourteen international teams fight it out for the trophy. Asian countries such as China, Japan, India, Korea and Hong Kong went head-to-head against Western countries such as the United States, Great Britain and Australia. The Korean team was victorious – in another excellent boost for the local industry.
The other tour is the Asia Pacific Poker Tour, which has held tournaments in Macau, Cebu, Manila, Auckland, and Seoul – with its grand final in Sydney every year in December. In Macau the APPT has made the impressive Grand Lisboa its home, and they set the record for the largest ever tournament in Asia in September last year. The Macau poker scene is really starting to take off, with four major casinos opening card rooms – Grand Lisboa, StarWorld, Wynn and the Venetian. The Poker King club at StarWorld held its first ever tournament in January – the Asian Poker King Tournament (APKT). There will be more tournaments by the APT, APPT, APKT and possibly new players yet to emerge. Tournaments appeal to the players, as they can turn a small investment into a huge amount of money. There will also be more casinos offering round-the-clock cash games, which will continue to become more popular as more and more locals learn and embrace the game.
The great thing about poker is that it is a game of skill, with a gambling element. Baccarat is certainly the game of choice in Asia at the moment, but there are elements of Texas Holdem Poker that will appeal to the throngs of baccarat players. It is also a game where you get to actually touch the cards – something baccarat players love to do. You don’t get to squeeze them, but you certainly get to be a part of the game. You can’t compare poker to baccarat when it comes to pure gambling. Baccarat is a game that thrives on its simplicity and basic pure ‘gamble’. What poker can do, however, is that it can turn you into a household name overnight, if you are lucky and good enough to win a huge tournament. The best poker players in the world do nothing else but travel around the world, playing poker at the expense of their sponsors. This is something that baccarat can never offer their players. Poker can be marketed as a skill-based pastime. With poker, the more you work on your game and practice, the more you will improve.
Some of the best poker players in the world are Asian. The majority of them are Asians who have lived most or all of their lives in the West – but make no mistake, this will change in the very near future. Poker needed a home in the region, and Macau has taken up that mantle. The fuse has been lit – and the explosion is not very far away.

Introduction to recycling scrap ammo.
Ammo recycling is a process that can be used to recover valuable materials from spent ammunition. This process can help to reduce the amount of waste that is created from the production and use of firearms and can help to protect the environment.
The first step in recycling ammo is to remove the lead and other metals from the bullets. This is done by using a variety of methods, including smelting and casting. After the lead has been removed, the remaining materials can be recycled into new ammunition or other products.
Recycling ammo can be a valuable way to reduce the amount of waste that is created from the production and use of firearms. By recovering valuable materials from spent ammunition, we can help to protect the environment and create products that are more sustainable.
The environmental impact of recycling scrap ammo
The environmental impact of recycling scrap ammo is a hotly debated topic. Some people believe that recycling scrap ammo is environmentally friendly, while others believe that it is not.
The main argument against recycling scrap ammo is that it is not processed correctly. Recycled ammo is often mixed with other materials, and it can be dangerous if it is not properly processed.
Some people also argue that recycling scrap ammo creates more pollution than it prevents. Scrap ammo is often made from lead and other heavy metals, and it can be difficult to recycle them properly.
The benefits of recycling scrap ammo
There are numerous benefits to recycling scrap ammo.
The most obvious benefit is that it reduces the amount of waste that is created. Recycling also helps to protect the environment.
Another benefit is that it helps to keep prices low for ammunition. This is because it costs money to create new ammunition. By recycling scrap ammo, manufacturers are able to keep the cost of ammunition low.
Finally, recycling scrap ammo helps to keep jobs in the ammunition industry. By recycling scrap ammo, manufacturers are able to keep the workforce employed.
Tips for recycling scrap ammo.
There are a few things you can do to help recycle your scrap ammo.
- Sort your ammo by caliber, and then by manufacturer. This will help you to keep track of what is recyclable and what needs to be disposed of.
- Check the state and local laws surrounding scrap ammunition. In some places, it may be illegal to dispose of ammo in a regular trash bin. Instead, it may be required to take it to a licensed scrap metal dealer.
- Make sure to keep track of what you are recycling.
Scrap ammo prices
When it comes to scrap ammunition prices, there can be a lot of variation. However, as a general rule, prices tend to be higher for older ammunition and lower for newer ammunition. Current brass prices payout at around $1.76 per pound, making this material a very lucrative scrap if a person has a large amount of it. So, if a person has a large collection of casings, it’s in their best interest to unload them at a local recycling center.

I am a poor loser. It does not matter what game it is I hate to lose. It could be a sport that I am playing, a board game or watching my favorite baseball team…..it just doesn’t matter. I don’t take losing very well. This last week has been difficult for me. In years past, when the Cubs weren’t performing well I didn’t like the losing, but it didn’t bother me as much as this season. I guess since the Cubs have been winnng so much this season I have become used to them winning. Yet, this last week wasn’t a very good week for me. The sweep by the Sox over the weekend caused me to eat some humble pie. But that’s okay. A lesson is humility never hurts.
Hopefully, the Cubs turn things around this week and get back on the winning track. The All-Star game is just around the corner and I realize that some of the players could use the time off. Maybe some rest and relaxtion will get this team ready for the dog days of summer and the stretch run. It wouldn’t hurt if they made a trade for C.C. Sabathia either.

Tricia Saldanha lives in downtown Salt Lake City and often takes TRAX–the city’s light-rail line–to go shopping or run errands. It’s easier to hop on and off than to drive, and parking tickets aren’t a concern. But when Saldanha, 26, visits family in Provo, about 45 miles south, she bypasses the commuter-rail link between the two cities and takes her car. “I’ve done the calculations, and it’s still cheaper to drive,” she says.
Convincing Saldanha and other Utah urbanites otherwise is the job of Robin Hutcheson, Salt Lake’s head of transportation, who as you might expect often uses public transit to get to work. “We’ve got to change the mind-set here,” Hutcheson says as we wait to catch the 209 bus on a recent weekday morning. That change looks daunting: cars have been the main way to get around Salt Lake and the Wasatch Front region since they replaced the horse and buggy. Fifteen years ago, no commuter rail linked Salt Lake with nearby Ogden or Provo. Light rail didn’t connect the growing neighborhoods within those cities. In 2007, Salt Lake’s bike-lane budget was $50,000.

To the Editor:
Jon Shure's thoughtful article (Soapbox, Sept. 14) on the taxes paid by New Jersey residents is so on the money.
Yet I am pessimistic about any movement in the direction he suggests, increasing taxes proportionately at the state level and giving counties and towns relief.
Unfortunately, every politician in New Jersey, and other places, has learned all too well the saga of Governors Jim Florio and Christine Whitman. Raise taxes and you are history.
Lower them -- never mind the misery and chaos you cause-- and you are glowingly perceived as a person who will go far.
Personally, I am looked at as a weirdo when I suggest to my friends that we would be better off paying higher state taxes. If only there were hundreds of articles such as Mr. Shure's, perhaps the idea could be somehow drummed into people's heads so we could get back to a sane tax scheme.

In Verse Going Viral: China’s New Media Scenes, Heather Inwood unravels a paradox surrounding modern Chinese poetry: while poetry as a representation of high culture is widely assumed to be marginalized to the point of death, poetry activity flourishes across the country. She finds that this ancient art form has benefited from China’s continued self-identity as a nation of poetry (shiguo) and from the interactive opportunities created by the Internet and other participatory media. In today’s guest post, Inwood provides a glimpse into some of the myriad ways the digital revolution has impacted the role of poetry in contemporary Chinese society.
There’s a famous Chinese saying that “the misery of the state leads to the emergence of great poets” (guojia buxing shijia xing)–or more literally, “when the state is unfortunate, poets are fortunate.” These words come from a poem by the Qing dynasty historian Zhao Yi (1727–1814), observing the phenomenon in which classic works of poetry often appear during times of calamity: war, famine, dynastic downfall, and so on.
Zhao Yi’s saying sprang to mind for many observers of Chinese poetry after the Sichuan Earthquake of May 2008. The loss of nearly 70,000 lives spurred an outpouring of poems that were widely circulated on the Internet, in newspapers, on television and radio, and recited at fundraising events. As a form of writing that “follows from emotion” (shi yuan qing), poetry is ideally placed in times of turmoil and tragedy. When things go wrong, you can trust that poets will find a way to put into words what many are thinking and feeling.
Turn the saying around (when the state is fortunate, poets are unfortunate) and we might have an explanation for why the very existence of poetry in twenty-first century China has been brought into doubt. China as a whole seems to be flourishing, growing in confidence on the global stage and on the way to becoming the world’s largest economy. Does that mean it is the poets’ turn to suffer, robbed of their source of inspiration and ignored by a public who craves instant entertainment over contemplative reading? Such questions echo concerns around the world about the fate of literature under neoliberal conditions, in which success is judged primarily by the ability to make money. If poets aren’t contributing to China’s economic rise, why bother writing at all?
This is, needless to say, a distorted way of thinking about what it means to write poetry. Yet similar suggestions have surfaced again and again in critiques of modern poetry that swirl across the Chinese media. One outspoken attack came from Han Han, a popular writer and race-car driver with a knack for stirring up public opinion through social media. Joining in the spoofing of some colloquial language poems that went viral on the Internet in late 2006, Han Han proffered the provocative lines,
“My opinion has long been that there is no need for modern poetry or poets to exist, as they are of zero value. These days paper is pretty expensive, so why not write some decent prose and fill the whole page?”
In Verse Going Viral, Han’s words lead me into an exploration of the public status of poetry and internal workings of poetry scenes in contemporary China. It is a widely accepted fact that China is a “nation of poetry,” but often the same person extolling the importance of poetry will be oblivious to the fact that anybody writes it anymore. Happily, even the briefest search online, look in a bookstore, or venture into China’s burgeoning poetry event culture reveals that poetry is, in fact, in rude health. Despite its widely assumed marginality, poetry is everywhere—in the course of my research I attended events in schools, parks, cafés, bars, real estate offices, peach orchards, and concert halls, among other locations—and many people still care about it very, very much.
You might even go so far as to say that rather than caring too little, the public cares about poetry a little too much. The development of modern Chinese poetry has been driven by the need to open the gates of poetry by abandoning the literary language and stylistic conventions of classical poetry for a more free-form, vernacular style of writing. By doing so, early twentieth-century poets hoped that they might use their poetry to participate in the rejuvenation of China, much needed after a series of national humiliations that marked the last few decades of dynastic rule.
Yet the move toward accessibility hasn’t always pleased the public. Making written poetry sound like everyday speech was supposed to facilitate communication between poets and their audiences. Instead, it appears to have prompted a large swathe of China’s online population to adopt a gatekeeping mentality of their own, complaining that poems that are too easily understood don’t deserve the title of “poetry.” In doing so, they inadvertently address the question I began with. Does poetry still matter? If the question is being asked in the first place, I would venture that we already know the answer.
