By PETER JACKSON Associated Press HARRISBURG — A Pennsyl- vania House panel stamped its approval Tuesday on proposed mandatory prison terms for fe- lons who possess firearms, while an annual gun-rights rally at the Capitol drew a smaller-than-usu- al crowd. The House Judiciary Commit- tee voted 21-3 to send to the House floor a bill to set a mini- mum five-year prison term for fe- lons caught possessing firearms and to impose minimums of up to 25 years for repeat violent offend- ers under the state’s “three strikes” law. There is currently no mandatory minimum sentence. The bill’s sponsor, Republican Rep. Todd Stephens, shrugged off one panelist’s concerns about minimum sentences exacerbat- ing the problem of prison crowd- ing. He said the people covered by the bill are repeat offenders. “These are the guys that we build prisons for,” said Stephens. Stephens admitted some of- fenders could avoid the mini- mum sentence through plea bar- gains if they cooperate with pros- ecutors, but said the threat alone is extra leverage for prosecutors. The legislation is supported by the gun-violence prevention group CeaseFirePA, which calls it “a step in the right direction,” as well as Rep. Daryl Metcalfe, one of the Legislature’s most outspo- ken gun-rights advocates. “If a criminal uses a gun, they ought to have the hammer of jus- tice brought down on their head pretty severely,” said Metcalfe, R- Butler, who helped organize Tuesday’s Capitol rally. Only about 150 people attend- ed the relatively low-key event. They applauded lawmakers who took turns criticizing the state’s instant-check system for prospec- tive gun buyers and other re- quirements they view as obstruc- tions to their Second Amend- ment right to bear arms. 753019 CMYK

WITH SUMMER slowly approaching, here is a slight twist on a traditional dess- ert that has been around for gener- ations: Creamy Carib- bean Coconut Rice Pudding. Rice pudding is often neglected and sometimes considered a “boring” dess- ert. As a matter of fact, it actually can be a simple, yet decadent dessert to make with many variations. For example, I took a basic rice pud- ding recipe and chose to add pineapple, mango and coconut milk to it. The flavors are incredible when all paired together. If Caribbean fruits or flavors are not your style, you may add differ- ent extracts and fruits as you wish. Just take my rice-pudding recipe as listed below, and instead of the 2 cups of coconut milk just substitute 2 more cups of milk. You will have your basic rice pudding recipe with whatever you decide to add to it. When preparing this dessert, be mindful not to continuously stir the rice pudding because it may become frail. Occasionally stir the rice pudding while cooking to ensure a nice creamy rice texture as your end product. This dessert will be featured this weekend as well as on our famous Mother’s Day Dinner Buffet with vari- ous other choices at Fire and Ice on PETE G. WILCOX/THE TIMES LEADER Toby Creek Restaurant in Trucksville.
