A bill that would allow Texas college students to keep handguns locked 
in their cars in college campus parking lots easily passed the state 
Senate on Tuesday.The bill, OK'd in a bipartisan 27-4 vote, would override 
rules by several state colleges and universities that prohibit guns on campuses.During 
the debate on the Senate floor, Democratic Sen. Jose Rodriguez of El 
Paso argued the bill would lead to allowing guns in college classrooms. 
He later told FoxNews.com, I opposed the bill because, given todays climate 
and the rise of crime on ours campuses, the last thing we 
need to do is pass a bill like this."Supporters say the measure 
isnt a traditional concealed weapons bill because the legislation would 
restrict students to keeping their guns in a locked vehicle. But Rodriguez 
says that would do little to deter a determined shooter.You allow it 
in the glove compartment of your car in the college campus and 
if you have a disgruntled student who wants to take (his or 
her) anger out on the teacher or an administrator, whats going to 
stop the student from walking to the car and getting it? Rodriguez 
said.Republican Sen. Glenn Hegar, a supporter of the bill, says the current 
restrictions unfairly single out college students.Guns in Texas play a big 
part in the Lone Star states culture, Rodriguez said. At the Texas 
Capitol, concealed handgun license holders are allowed to skip the metal 
detectors that others must go through to be allowed entr

injured Sunday when his horse stumbled and he pitched into the dirt 
track at the hippodrome on the outskirts of the capital, Ashgabat. But 
the fall was certainly a wound to the pride of the 55-year-old 
Central Asian leader, whose all-powerful personality cult portrays him as 
effortlessly competent.Thousands of people were in the stands for the race 
that celebrated Turkmenistan's renowned desert racehorse breed, the Akhal-Teke. 
But state television's video of the race cut off just before the 
fall and the extensive written reports on the event didn't mention the 
plunge.All domestic broadcasting in Turkmenistan is state-run; newspapers 
are either state-run or under heavy government supervision. Media criticism 
of the president is non-existent and elaborate praise of him is ubiquitous 
in this nation of 5 million, wedged between the Caspian Sea and 
Iran, Afghanistan and Uzbekistan.Turkmenistan's security agencies reportedly 
went into high gear to try to block video or images of 
the president's fall from slipping out to the rest of the world. 
The opposition-in-exile group Gundogar cited witnesses as saying police 
were carefully checking the computers, tablets, mobile phones and cameras 
of departing passengers at Ashgabat's airport. The horse celebration had 
attracted an array of foreign horse enthusiasts.Video obtained by The Associated 
Press shows a rider falling when his horse stumbles just after crossing 
the finish line
