Sacramento — The deadliest weapon being sold in gun shops these days is not the old . 44 magnum revolver immortalized by Clint Eastwood's "Dirty Harry. " Definitely not. Nor is it even the 9-millimeter Glock semiautomatic used by the mass murderer at Virginia Tech. The most lethal weapon is a bullet. It's true, guns don't kill people. Bullets do. Deny ammunition to a handgun, and it becomes about as lethal as a tack hammer. Or as freshman Assemblyman Kevin de Leon (D-Los Angeles) puts it: "Like humans need oxygen to breathe, firearms need ammo to function.

Without it, the worst thing you can do with a Tech-9 is throw it across the room and hope you hit somebody. "And do we regulate the sale and distribution of ammo in the state of California? The answer is unequivocally 'No. ' It's more difficult to buy a can of spray paint apostle bill anderson . Because spray paint is locked up and you have to show an ID, due to all the graffiti. "Actually, the city of Los Angeles does try to minimally regulate handgun ammunition sales bill andersen . Purchasers are required to show a driver's license and leave their name, address and thumbprint But there's only random, cursory background checking later john anderson . Bill Anderson tickets And it's easy for someone just to drive into Culver City or Compton and load up there on bullets. A study by the Rand Corp country anderson . last year found that felons and other people who can't legally possess guns did manage to buy more than 10,000 rounds of ammunition in L. A. city retail stores over a two-month period. So De Leon, at the urging of Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, Police Chief William J. Bratton and county Sheriff Lee Baca, has introduced legislation that would make California the first state to seriously regulate handgun ammunition. His bill, AB 362, cleared the Assembly Public Safety Committee on Tuesday on a party-line vote -- Democrats for, Republicans against -- and was sent to the Appropriations Committee. The legislation is aimed primarily at gangs.

Its intent is to require instant background checks of all purchasers of handgun ammunition in California by 2011. Meanwhile, handgun ammo vendors would have to register with the state Department of Justice, keep bullets locked up behind the counter, require an ID from purchasers and sell only face to face bill and maggie anderson . No Internet transactions. At the committee hearing, the gun lobby objected that keeping bullets locked up -- to prevent thefts -- would be inconvenient and inhibit comparison shopping. lou anderson . Joe Beimel lives in Cranberry Township, Pa. , a small town about 20 minutes outside Pittsburgh singer anderson . The summer calendar there features a composting class, a fishing derby and a concert by the Pittsburgh Banjo Club. In baseball, it's Pirates country Beimel grew up a few fungoes down the road william anderson . The Pirates were pretty good back then, so Beimel would head into the big city to catch a game One summer, on autograph day, he waited in a long line. Finally, he got to the front, and Barry Bonds signed, with a smile. "I got his rookie card signed," Beimel said. "I've still got it. "The baseball card came to life Saturday, and Beimel did not back down.

With the potential tying and go-ahead runs on base in the seventh inning, Beimel got Bonds to ground out, the key play in the Dodgers' 6-5 victory over the San Francisco Giants at Dodger Stadium. Brad Penny became the National League's first 13-game winner -- barely beating Arizona's Brandon Webb, who won his 13th Saturday night -- Wilson Betemit hit the home run that put the Dodgers ahead for good, and Jonathan Broxton and Takashi Saito closed out the Giants with an inning apiece of scoreless relief. But, as the Dodgers won for the 14th time in 15 games, Beimel spent a rare moment on center stage, with his childhood idol as his foil. Nothing new there, really Bill Anderson . In an otherwise anonymous career, Beimel has faced Bonds nine times and given up one hit -- a home run, of course -- and only two walks. "I grew up watching him," Beimel said anderson william . "I always told myself I'd never pitch around him. "With two on and two out in the seventh inning, the Dodgers led, 6-5 marylou anderson . If Beimel could get Bonds, the Dodgers could hand that one-run lead to Broxton and Saito. Beimel said he did not consider pitching around Bonds. "He's just another hitter," Beimel said "Let's face it He's not having a great year lyric anderson . When it comes down to it, I'd rather take a chance with him than let [Moises] Alou beat me. "The Dodgers shifted the infield, and Bonds grounded to shortstop Rafael Furcal, who had moved to the right-field side of second base. Threat averted. But, Joe, just another hitter?"I have all the respect for him in the world," Beimel said. "I feel he's one of the greatest hitters ever to play the game.

But when it comes down to it, I'd rather face him than go up against somebody who's put up better numbers. "In four at-bats, Bonds had one hit -- a double -- and no walks bill anderson & jan howard . He's batting . 248 with 15 home runs, one in the last 23 days. "I challenge him a lot more than I would have two years ago," Penny said of Bonds, "especially with people on base. "Penny gave back a 3-0 lead in one inning and a 4-3 lead in the next, but Betemit rescued him by hitting his 13th home run of the season and fourth in 13 games for the Dodgers. Although the Dodgers are now juggling too many infielders in too few spots, Manager Grady Little said Betemit would get regular playing time at third base mary anderson . Nomar Garciaparra and Jeff Kent did not start Saturday; Little said he wanted to ease both back after stints on the disabled list. And Jason Repko, something of a forgotten man in the outfield, came off the bench in a double switch and made a game-saving play in the ninth inning, crashing into the center-field fence to rob Steve Finley of an extra-base hit that could have tied the score. However, although center fielder Kenny Lofton has struggled defensively, Little said he does not consider Lofton a defensive liability and had no plan to use Repko as a regular defensive replacement for him. The crowd cheered Repko, and booed Bonds, and that made Beimel feel at home artist anderson . In Pittsburgh, he said, Bonds is remembered less as the guy who led the Pirates to their last three playoff berths and more as the guy who left town for the big bucks of free agency. "I don't think they like him at all," Beimel said "It's about the same as when he comes in here A lot of people show up to boo him. " bill andreson .

NEW YORK — Bartolo Colon, out for the season because of a partial rotator-cuff tear, will travel to Arizona later this month or early next month to begin an extensive, 10-week rehabilitation program that he expects will lead to a full recovery by next spring. "I know there's no magic wand to say I'll be cured in so much time," Colon said Saturday through an interpreter, his first public comments since his Aug 4 diagnosis anderson robertson marketing . "It's something I haven't gone through before, but I'm not fearful I'm going to work hard to get it right bill country . I'm going to be ready for spring training. "The question is, which Colon will show up in Arizona next February? The workhorse with the 96-mph fastball, the reliable right-hander who went 21-8 with a 3. 48 earned-run average and won the American League Cy Young Award in 2005?Or the wobbly 33-year-old who never looked quite right after returning from last October's shoulder tear, the pitcher whose fastball rarely topped 92 mph and who tried to finesse his way through 10 starts this season, going 1-5 with a 5. 11 ERA?"My velocity is going to come back -- I have no reason to doubt," Colon said "I've seen guys go through this before by anderson . I'm not going to throw 99-100 mph like I did with the Indians, but my velocity will be where it's been the last couple years with the Angels. "Colon's friend and fellow Dominican, Pedro Martinez, bounced back -- without surgery -- from a similar injury in 2001 to go 20-4 with a 2. 26 ERA and 239 strikeouts for the Red Sox in 2002. Angels teammate Joe Saunders sat out 2003 because of a rotator-cuff tear, chose an aggressive rehabilitation program over surgery and was fully recovered by 2004, going a combined 13-10 for Class-A Rancho Cucamonga and double-A Arkansas. Dr Bill Anderson - wikipedia . Lewis Yocum, Angels team physician, "clearly stated the tear can be cured without surgery, and I respect him, because a lot of people I know have worked with him," Colon said "That was good news to me. If the tear was bigger, surgery would have been the only option.

I'm very glad that wasn't even mentioned. "When Colon completes his program in Arizona, he will return to the Dominican to work with personal trainer Angel Presinal . Colon said he had no concerns over a recent New York Daily News report linking Presinal to a possible doping scandal involving former Cleveland slugger Juan Gonzalez in 2001. "There's a guy who pushes me to the limit and understands my body more than anybody else," said Colon, who hired Presinal in 2003 bill song .

" jeff anderson . SACRAMENTO — Assembly Speaker Fabian Nunez defied his counterpart in Congress on Wednesday by proposing that a bipartisan government watchdog commission redraw both legislative and congressional districts. The proposal by the Los Angeles Democrat, which voters could decide in February, risks the wrath of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a San Francisco Democrat who has warned Nunez that giving up the Legislature's ability to draw political districts could jeopardize the fragile majority Democrats won in Congress last November. Nunez said that he spoke Wednesday morning to Pelosi's chief of staff, and that he would work to convince her and other members of Congress that his approach would prevent political power grabs by either party. "What we're looking for here is balance; what we're looking for here is fairness," Nunez said "It includes Congress . Why? Because if it's good enough for the state Legislature, it ought to be good enough for Congress. "Pelosi spokesman Drew Hammill said she hadn't seen specifics of Nunez's proposal. But Pelosi has made it clear, Hammill said, that she prefers a national standard that would establish independent redistricting commissions in all states. Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-San Jose), chairwoman of California's Democratic congressional delegation, said California risks disadvantaging itself by redrawing political boundaries without regard to partisan politics when other state legislatures remain free to deliberately distort districts to favor the party in power. "Right now California is very advantaged," Lofgren said "We have the first California speaker.
