Sotomayer wrong on guns AND the law

Submitted by JIMV on

Senator Hatch, in his questioning of Sotomayer on her decision after Heller on incorporation of the fundamental right to arms against the states under the 14th Amendment, raised a very serious point that he did not explain very well (IMHO).

Judge Sotomayer decided that the 2nd amendment did not apply to the states under the doctrine of the 14th Amendment allowing the states to regulate the right to non existence if they had a logical case to do so.

The success of any party depends on just a few things: the venue, the guests, the food and drink, and (of course) the music. Evenings at John DeVore's factory at the <a href="http://blog.stereophile.com/stephenmejias/111806wander/">Brooklyn Navy Yard</a> are invariably successful. More than that, they are fun. You love the place. You enjoy the company. The food is delicious and the drinks do the trick. And (of course) the music is intoxicating. You want to be there.

Wes you have kept us up to date on this issue. Hopefully you are preparing a blog about this recent agreement? Both sides seem to be offering positive press statements but THIS ARTICLE paints a very different picture that doesn't exactly warm the cockles of those of us who love our streams.

Would love to hear your take on things.

Getting to the ten week mark until Rocky Mountain Audio Fest.

Anybody gonna go?

Me and Big Mike are going, and maybe the wives. (It's my wife's birthday during the show, what could be a finer gift than a romantic journey through the halls of RMAF? )

Maybe a keg party and a cake?

Ooooh! How about assembling a small room/party system on the fly?

Boulder 1021 disc player Measurements

As we approach the end of the 21st century's "oughts" decade, many feel that playing music from a discrete physical medium is positively <I>20th</I> century. Much of my own music enjoyment now comes from computer files, often high-resolution, streamed to my high-end rig via a <A HREF="http://www.stereophile.com/mediaservers/207slim">Logitech Transporter</A> or <A HREF="http://www.stereophile.com/computeraudio/bel_canto_usb_link_2496_usb-sp… Canto USB Link 24/96</A>. It is perhaps a paradox, therefore, that high-end audio companies are still devoting so much effort to developing expensive, state-of-the-art disc players. In April I very <A HREF="http://www.stereophile.com/cdplayers/meridian_8082808i2_signature_refer… reviewed</A> Meridian's superb 808i.2 CD player&#150;preamplifier, which costs $16,995 as reviewed, and Michael Fremer is about to review the ultimate Scarlatti SACD playback system from another English company, dCS. The $80,000 price tag of the Scarlatti makes the subject of my review this month, the Boulder 1021, seem relatively affordable at $24,000.
