Orlandoweekly.com - NEWS+FEATURES: Guns N' Moses In case you hadn't heard, the National Rifle Association dropped by the Orange County Convention Center April 24. About 50,000 members attended the 132nd-annual meeting and show. They came to pay tribute to outgoing NRA president Charlton Heston, select a new president, wave the flag, pat themselves on the back for getting George W. Thursday, April 24 12:30 p.m. The NRA's National Urban Affairs Committee is holding its first meeting at the Orlando convention, and I'm on the guest list. A woman with the NRA named Sue Ann or Sue Ellen is obviously uncomfortable that I'm here. The Urban Affairs Committee is charged with increasing NRA membership among minorities. But this right here is a very diverse group of blacks, whites and Hispanics. Before his talk, Innis asks the folks in the room to introduce themselves. Innis takes the podium and gives a brief outline of the NRA's beginnings. The media "demonizes" guns, but guns don't really create problems, says Innis. Time to leave. Noon 1 p.m.
The right kind of flip-flops to wear this summer - Fashion + Beauty on Shine FitFlop Electra, $59.90, zappos.comAt last, the breezy days of summer are upon us. Instead of repeatedly checking the daily weather forecast to deliberate if we need a scarf or sweater for layering, we can enjoyably slip on some comfy shorts or an effortless sundress. For many of us, flip-flops become the go-to footwear to accompany such an ensemble, but as we've often been warned, these flimsy slip-ons do not always provide ideal foot support. USA Today reports that Justin Shroyer, an assistant professor of kinesiology at the University of Louisiana-Lafayette, studied over 100 flip-flop wearers to uncover patterns in their feet and leg movements. "The more the shoe conforms to your foot, the better off your foot and leg will be," Shroyer told USA Today. Orthaheel Wave Sandal, $54.99, orthaheelusa.comDr. Sole Platinum Sandal Sport Flips, $69.95, yoursole.comAs Shroyer suggested, "not all flip-flops are created equal," says Dr. When it comes to brands, some are better than others.

Home & Office The flat-out paranoia of the NRA and Wayne LaPierre Wayne LaPierre, the executive vice president of the National Rifle Association, gave me a call at home the other day. In the taped message, my friend Wayne warned me that unless I and other patriotic Americans stepped forward to stop it, the dastardly United Nations, with Iran, China, North Korea and other evil countries behind it, would soon come into our country and into our very homes, strip the Second Amendment out of the Constitution and “take away every pistol, and rifle and shotgun” that we owned. Riiiggghhht. I just have one question though: How is the UN going to accomplish this? Look, I recognize that the boundary between serious and seriously crazy has shifted considerably in recent years. The ostensible cause of LaPierre’s hysteria is something called the International Arms Trade Treaty. It would have no effect whatsoever on domestic ownership, possession or purchase of firearms. Money is part of the reason. Point One was a federal ban on the use of guns for home defense.
Onkyo HT-S3400 5.1 Channel Home Theater Receiver/Speaker Package: Electronics Married to the Market To the alarm of Central Park’s bird-watchers and pigeons alike, nine moms in sweats and sneakers, accompanied by their personal trainer, raced down the path toward the Alice in Wonderland statue on a recent morning, pushing baby strollers -- not three-wheeled jogging strollers but careening Maclarens and polka-dotted Peregos. “Think of a dirty toilet seat,” the trainer barked as they hit the statue and started hopping up and down its steps, their incredulous babies arrayed in a semicircle around them. “You can’t sit on it, so you’re going to squat.” The moms dutifully visualized a dirty toilet seat -- they had to look no farther than the ladies’ room at the boathouse just across the model-boat pond -- and squatted. “Listen to me,” their commander instructed after a dozen or so squats -- barely enough to break a sweat. The ladies took off for a brief run; their children, thrown into spontaneous and collective separation anxiety, started howling. “Up and down,” their trainer ordered.
Açaí Damage-Protecting Toning Mist Aztln Game description from the publisher: In the mythical land of Aztlán, four tribes strive to survive and prosper under the scrutiny of the gods themselves. Peaceful coexistence brings wealth and prosperity to all, but the fearsome Aztec gods favor those who are mighty in war and bring to them their subdued enemies as cruel offerings... Only one of the four tribes will be granted the right to stay in this blessed land when the Time of Exile comes at the end of the Fifth Age of the Sun. Guide your tribe to build the mightiest empire through the Five Ages, win the favor of the gods, and become the greatest ruler in the land of Aztlàn. Aztlán can be played by three or four players (or two players with the "Aztec Gods" variant). If a territory is disputed by several players, the strongest tribe may defeat the weaker ones – but war is not the only path to victory and peaceful coexistence with the other tribes sometimes brings greater rewards.
