This study details the prevalence of defective guns sold in the United States and describes the failure of government oversight in addressing this longstanding public safety issue.

The Impact of Increased Ethanol Production on Corn Basis in South Dakota
A basis model is used to empirically estimate the impact of ethanol production on the South Dakota corn basis on the district and State levels. Monthly data is used to estimate basis as a function of futures price, supply, demand, storage, and transportation costs. The independent variables used are corn futures prices, corn production, corn usage for ethanol production, corn usage by cattle, Midwest No. 2 Diesel retail sales prices, storage availability, and unit train transportation The regression results show the impact on corn basis varies by district from 0.27 per bushel, with a State impact of 0.06 to 0.03. The impact from an additional 100 MGY ethanol plant ranges from 0.40 per bushel, with a State impact of $0.08.Crop Production/Industries,
