Texas man faces more charges for bombing attempt
SHERMAN, Texas (AP) ? A North Texas man described by authorities as an anarchist is facing additional charges for attempting to bomb a pipeline.
Three counts were issued last week by a federal grand jury in Sherman against 34-year-old Anson Chi (CHEE). The Plano man now is charged with malicious use of explosive materials, use of a destructive device during a crime, and possession of a firearm that was not federally registered.
Authorities have said a homemade bomb exploded on a natural gas regulator in Plano. The device went off prematurely and caused little damage. The June 18 incident left Chi burned.
His lawyers have described Chi as "delusional" and he has a competency hearing scheduled for March. He remains in custody without bond.
An attorney for Chi was not immediately available Wednesday.

Sony announces PlayStation app for iOS and Android, will expand games to the second screen
Nintendo isn't the only gaming outfit playing around with a second screen -- Sony has plans of its own. The aptly named PlayStation app promises to expand gameplay to a player's iOS or Android device, propagating in-game maps, social networking tools or simply an easier way to access the PlayStation store. The application's functionality sounds an awful lot like the Wii U GamePad, though Sony hasn't mentioned if off-screen play via tablet will be a possibility. Even if that function doesn't come to your smartphone or tablet, it's definitely available on PlayStation Vita, which fills out the rest of the company's second screen plans with its remote play feature. Looking for official details? Skip past the break for the relevant excerpt from Sony's official PS4 press release.

Union vote means more jobs are coming to Brook Park's Ford plant
BROOK PARK, OH (WOIO) -
The members of the Ford UAW Local 1250 in Brook Park voted Monday night ?for a new contract, and it narrowly passed.
The vote insures new jobs to greater Cleveland when they add a second engine.
There was steady flow outside the Ford Union Hall. "They need to bring more jobs back over here," said one union member.
Sandy Artman believes a new contract with the company is a guarantee more jobs will come the Brook Park plant.
"Let's hope, so I am hoping for that," says Artman.
The Brook Park plant makes the popular EcoBoost 6 cylinder engine and the company's plan is to expand to a four cylinder.
"What that means is additional work and for 700 of our people it will almost double our population," says Mike Gammelia, UAW Local 1250 President.
Even though three sites already closed and the foundry has been demolished.??
Not everyone is pleased with a passing contract.
"The building is down to one plant they don't even know if that is going to last," said Timothy Williams.
But union negotiators say this is a win win for everyone.
"It's a ripple effect from everything to they dry cleaners to the butcher, baker, the candlestick maker --?it will mean more money in the economy," said Gammelia.
And for Philip Santiago, while he has concerns for this new contract he knows a passing it means he gets to keep his job.
"You've got too many people out on the streets looking for jobs and stuff," says Santiago.
The 700 hundred new jobs are expected to be added in August of 2014.?
Ford has sold more than?1/2 million EcoBoost cars and?many of those engines come from this plant in Brook Park.

Is the Keystone XL Pipeline Worth Getting Arrested For?

Last week, four dozen opponents of the Keystone XL pipeline, including Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and environmental activist Bill McKibben, were arrested after they engaged in civil disobedience near the gates of the White House. Some of the activists attached themselves to the fence around the White House and others refused to move after being ordered to do so by U.S. Park Police. On Sunday, tens of thousands of people marched in Washington, D.C., to protest the pipeline project.
The demonstrators are hoping to convince President Obama to reject federal approval for the line, which aims to carry crude oil from Canada and North Dakota?s Bakken Shale to the U.S. Gulf Coast. But if opponents of the Keystone pipeline are going to stop the flow of crude, they are going to have to do more than just get arrested or hold a rally?they are going to have block nearly every north-south rail line in North America.
When it comes to the flow of northern crude to U.S. refineries, here?s the reality: No Keystone XL? No problem.
While opponents of the pipeline have been rallying their supporters, U.S. and Canadian railroads have been hauling record amounts of oil. Last year, the volume of oil delivered by rail in the United States jumped by about 46 percent compared with 2011. According to the Association of American Railroads, oil-related rail traffic increased in Canada by 30 percent. In December, U.S. and Canadian railroads were hauling about 1.9 million barrels of oil and refined products per day, double the volume moved in 2009. Of that total, about 1 million barrels per day is being railed in the United States.
The Keystone XL is designed to transport 830,000 barrels per day. Over the past two years or so, domestic railroads have increased their transport capacity by an amount equal to about 55 percent of what Keystone is supposed to provide.
There?s nothing new in moving oil by rail. In the late 1860s, John D. Rockefeller began investing in railroad tanker cars, a move that saved him the cost of building barrels to hold his product. The oil baron?s control over the Cleveland-area refining market allowed him to negotiate favorable shipping rates with the railroads.
U.S. and Canadian oil producers aren?t waiting for the Keystone XL or other pipelines; they are building rail-car terminals so they can ship their product to market. In North Dakota alone, oil producers have built rail terminals capable of handling nearly 1 million barrels of oil per day.
Refineries are also building rail terminals. Last month, Delek U.S. Holdings, a subsidiary of the Israeli energy company Delek Group, announced that it will begin refining 15,000 barrels of Canadian crude at its El Dorado, Ark., refinery. All of that oil is being shipped in by rail. A refinery in Delaware, owned by PBF Energy, recently completed a rail terminal that will allow it to take up to 110,000 barrels of crude oil per day. The Sunoco refinery in South Philadelphia as well as a Phillips 66 refinery in Bayway, N.J., are also ramping up their ability to accept more crude by rail.
Earlier this month, Sandy Fielden, an analyst for energy consulting firm RBN Energy LLC, reported that about 1 million barrels per day of new rail-unloading capacity is being built or planned in the United States. Fielden says that ?the crude-by-rail express came from nowhere on the radar screen? to become one of the biggest energy stories of 2012. And Fielden says that railroads have shown themselves to be ?faster and more flexible than traditional pipeline development.?
Rusty Braziel, RBN?s president, told me that the surge in moving oil by rail will continue because railroads give oil producers advantages that aren?t available when shipping their oil by pipeline. The most important one, says Braziel, is ?optionality.? With a pipeline, producers can ship their oil only from Point A to Point B. By putting oil on rail cars, if prices at Point B are too low, the producer can ship to other buyers by simply rerouting the train. Furthermore, says Braziel, with pipelines, oil producers often have to make a commitment to ship their product on a given pipe for 10 or even 20 years. ?The railroads will build a terminal for an 18- to 36-month commitment,? says Braziel. ?The pipeline guys have got to be scared.?

Salisbury News: Gun Owner Home Inspection Proposed!
Misstep in gun bill could defeat the effort
One of the major gun-control efforts in Olympia this session calls for the sheriff to inspect the homes of assault-weapon owners. The bill?s backers say that was a mistake.
As Orwellian as that sounds, it isn?t hypothetical. The notion of police home inspections was introduced in a bill last week in Olympia.
That it?s part of one of the major gun-control efforts pains me. It seemed in recent weeks lawmakers might be headed toward somecommon-sense regulation of gun sales. But then last week they went too far. By mistake, they claim. But still too far.
?They always say, we?ll never go house to house to take your guns away. But then you see this, and you have to wonder.?
That?s no gun-rights absolutist talking, but Lance Palmer, a Seattle trial lawyer and self-described liberal who brought the troubling Senate Bill 5737to my attention. It?s the long-awaited assault-weapons ban, introduced last week by three Seattle Democrats.
Responding to the Newtown school massacre, the bill would ban the sale of semi-automatic weapons that use detachable ammunition magazines. Clips that contain more than 10 rounds would be illegal.
But then, with respect to the thousands of weapons like that already owned by Washington residents, the bill says this:
?In order to continue to possess an assault weapon that was legally possessed on the effective date of this section, the person possessing shall ... safely and securely store the assault weapon. The sheriff of the county may, no more than once per year, conduct an inspection to ensure compliance with this subsection.?
