lso killed.Manchin, a red-state Democrat working with
blue-state Republican Sen. Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania, is trying to broker
a deal that would expand criminal and mental health background checks by
pressuring states to share data on prohibited purchasers and to include
sales that take place through a commercial enterprise.An individual could
sell another individual a gun without a background check, but if a
commercial entity is involved hosting a gun show or an Internet
site mandatory checks would be required. Even as gun control proponents
bemoan the deal as watered down, gun rights groups remain worried that
the legislation could be altered to create a federal firearms registry.
The Manchin-Toomey plan forbids the creation of such a list, but conservatives
hold little trust when it is the Obama Justice Department that is
doing the enforcement.But even if Manchin-Toomey somehow survives the Senate
and passes the House, it would not prevent the next Newtown. Or
the next Aurora. Or the next Tucson. Or the next Blacksburg. All
of the weapons said to be involved in those mass killings were
legally purchased from gun merchants and subject to full federal background
checks.And while gun control advocates can be happy that the expanded system
may mean fewer gun sales, theres little reason to think that Manchin-Toomey
would do much to help the problem of greatest concern in the
Democratic Party: street crime. As the urban party, Democrat

Valley in Connecticut and western Massachusetts has been home to a large
gun industry dating to the Revolutionary War.Andrew Doba, a spokesman for
Malloy, said the governor is committed to job creation, but additional gun
restrictions were paramount following the shooting deaths in December of
20 children and six educators at an elementary school in Newtown."On this
particular issue he's been clear: We need to prioritize public safety and
this bill will improve public safety," he said.The law adds more than
100 firearms to the state's assault weapons ban and creates what officials
have called the nation's first dangerous weapon offender registry and eligibility
rules for buying ammunition.Malkowski said he's received many emails from
customers "fed up with Connecticut.""They urged us to pick up and leave,"
he said.Malkowski said he spoke Tuesday with Texas economic development
officials trying to lure the company, which was founded in 2003 and
employs more than 200 employees."It's something we'll strongly consider,"
he said, adding that leaving Connecticut would be difficult. "If you're
a lawyer with a laptop, that's one thing," he said. "It's not
something we're going to do easily."Jonathan Scalise, owner of Ammunition
Storage Components, also of New Britain, said he's received offers from

Dakota and

signed by Satoshi Nakamoto -- likely a pseudonym -- and the coins
made their online debut in 2009. How the coins are created, how
the transactions are authenticated and how the whole system manages to power
forward with no central bank, no financial regulator and a user base
of wily hackers all comes down to computing power and savoir faire.Or,
as Nicholas Colas, chief market strategist for the ConvergEx Group, describes
it: "genius on so many levels."The linchpin of the system is a
network of "miners" -- high-end computer users who supply the Bitcoin network
with the processing power needed to maintain a transparent, running tally
of all transactions. The tally is one of the most important ways
in which the system prevents fraud, and the miners are rewarded for
supporting the system with an occasional helping of brand-new bitcoins.Those
bitcoins have become a dangerously hot commodity in the past few days.Rising
from roughly $13 at the beginning of the year, the price of
a single bitcoin blasted through the $100 barrier last week, according to
Mt. Gox, a site where users can swap bitcoins for more traditional
currencies.On Tuesday, the price of a single bitcoin had topped $200. On
Wednesday, it hit $266 before a flash crash dragged it back down
to just over $100. By Thursday, bitcoins were trading for around $150.The
rebel currency may seem unstable, but then so do some of its
more traditional counterparts. Some say Bitcoin got
A group of education organizations and state leaders is proposing a kind
of national treaty that would regulate online education. The arrangement,
announced Thursday, would create a common market and make it easier for
institutions to enroll students anywhere in the country.Currently, regulations
that authorize universities' and companies' online courses vary from state
to state.The proposed state compact would also create a uniform set of
consumer protections. That could give students in some states new recourse
to complain to state regulators about a program that's based elsewhere.
But in some states, the common standard could dilute oversight.About 7 million
U.S. students currently access college courses online.
