A new partnership changing the way the West Virginia State Police and Federal Bureau of Investigation share fingerprint data could double the cost of routine background checks for the West Virginia Lottery and Alcohol Beverage Control Administration.

Judicial activism is pushing America to the breaking point. This week, a federal judge blocked key provisions of Arizona's immigration law, thwarting the will of the people. The decision was ominous and will reverberate for years to come.

That risk puts the United States in a bind, caught between ally Turkey, which is on the side of Arabs and ethnic Turkomen here, and the Kurds, another strong U.S. ally.
