diminished greatly.The Senate advanced
the federal legislation Thursday morning, but the key plank of that pertains
to expanding background checks. A provision to renew bans on assault weapons
and high-capacity magazines was dropped from the main bill, though it will
likely get a vote as an amendment.The odds of the Senate advancing
to an up-or-down vote on the legislation improved Wednesday after two conservative
senators -- one Democrat, one Republican -- announced a proposed compromise
on background checks meant to assuage gun owners' concerns. The plan would
apply to background checks for gun shows and Internet sales but exempt
certain transactions among family members and others.Still, the National
Rifle Association said the proposal went too far.If a bill ultimately passes,
it will only come after millions more firearms have been purchased. Ammunition,
too, has been flying off the shelves at a rapid clip. The
sales have been picking up for several months. While Obama's re-election
and the push for gun control legislation have been blamed, others have
pointed the finger at the Department of Homeland Security, which has drawn
attention for looking to purchase up to 1.6 billion rounds over the
next five years for its law enforcement divisions.
had a few more advantages -- involved adults, good
schools, a supportive community and a safe neighborhood."That was the difference
between growing up and becoming a lawyer, a mother and first lady
of the United States and being shot dead at the age of
15," Mrs. Obama said, her voice gripped with emotion.The speech was Mrs.
Obama's first public remarks on gun violence since the Sandy Hook shooting
in December took the lives of 20 students and six faculty and
reignited a national debate over gun control. But with the fate of
the administration's efforts still uncertain, the White House was mounting
an all-hands-on-deck push to keep the public engaged.The president delivered
a speech Monday in Connecticut, and 12 family members of Sandy Hook
victims joined him on the return flight to Washington and have since
been lobbying members of Congress. Vice President Joe Biden and Attorney
General Eric Holder promoted the plan Tuesday at the White House, and
Biden was set to make the case again Thursday on MSNBC's "Morning
Joe."The Senate was planning an initial vote Thursday to begin debating
gun legislation, with some Republicans attempting to block consideration
of the measure. Two pivotal senators announced a bipartisan deal Wednesday
to expand background checks to more gun sales, which could build support
for President Barack Obama's drive to tighten firearms laws. But the ultimate
fate of the legislation remains unclear with strong oppositio

in one pocket and a smartphone tucked in the other, Patricio Fink
recently struck the kind of deal that's feeding the rise of a
new kind of money -- a virtual currency whose oscillations have pulled
geeks and speculators alike through stomach-churning highs and lows.The
Argentine software developer was dealing in bitcoins -- getting an injection
of the cybercurrency in exchange for a wad of real greenbacks he
handed to a pair of Australian tourists in a Buenos Aires Starbucks.
The visitors wanted spending money at black market rates without the risk
of getting roughed up in one of the Argentine capital's black market
exchanges. Fink wanted to pad his electronic wallet.In the safety of the
coffee shop, the tourists transferred Fink their bitcoins through an app

applicants' children to receive benefits through a designated third party."My
intent was never to harm the children," Nelson said.She said many Texas
employers require pre-employment drug testing and said her bill may help
people find jobs and get off welfare."We're not only going to help
them get off drugs," Nelson said. "We're going to help them get
a job."The Senate is also considering a separate bill that would require
similar screening and drug testing for those who apply for unemployment
benefits. Gov. Rick Perry has expressed support for both drug testing bills."Welfare
should never subsidize the irresponsible choices of otherwise capable people
who instead elect to stay at home, play video games, and get
high with their friends," Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst said.
