Fort Wise
Fort Blogs |
Fort Wise (1852-1867) - A trading post first established in 1852 as Bents New Fort by William Bent in Bent County, Colorado. The post was leased to the U.S. Army in 1859 and renamed Fort Fauntleroy (1) after Colonel Thomas T. Fauntleroy, 1st U.S. Dragoons. Colonel Fauntleroy joined the Confederacy in 1861 and the post was renamed Fort Wise after Henry A. Wise, Governor of Virginia. Wise also joined the Confederacy and the post was renamed Fort Lyon after the deceased Union General Nathaniel Lyon (Cullum 1069) who was the first Union general killed in the U.S. Civil War. The post was abandoned in 1867 for a newly constructed Fort Lyon. Commonly known as Bents New Fort and Fort Wise.
Fort Wise History
William Bent destroyed his original fort on the Arkansas River in 1849 when he was unable to sell it to the U.S. Army. He then built another post at Short Timbers, five miles down river from Bents Old Fort. In 1852 he abandoned that post and moved 40 miles further down river and constructed a new stone fort on a high bluff above the Arkansas river. In 1859 Bent leased his new fort to the U.S. Army.
The U.S. Army renamed the fort for Colonel Thomas T. Fauntleroy and went through an embarrassing series of name changes as the U.S. Civil War caused officers and men to choose sides. In 1864 the post was involved in the Sand Creek Massacre of the friendly Cheyennes led by Black Kettle that sparked a long lasting uprising of the plains Indians.
By 1867 the Arkansas River had undercut the bluff that the fort was built on and the Army constructed a new Fort Lyon (2) about 20 miles further upstream. The move to the new post was accomplished in 1868.

text: I slipped up yesterday got too hungry and ate some smoked ham and I kinda knew better but I was starving. Lesson learned: be more prepared. I read the label I saw the 1 gram of sugar per serving but it didn't have the carbs listed on the nutrition label and didn't think it would be a big deal. Well when I woke up this morning and my hangover was there to greet me along with blood sugar of 121. Some may not think that 121 is high but when I get to 120 I can feel it. 120 is the limit my doctor set for me and that is a high limit. I paid the price for it, felt hung over, headachy and lethargic(sp?). Had to workout in that fashion too. I got a good breakfast though and I printed out the induction acceptable foods list to post all around me and there at the top was HAM MAY HAVE SUGAR IN IT and thus have carbs. I'm being accountable for not reading and not planning. Today is day 7 and my goal for this week is to do Atkins not msruthie's version of Atkins. If I do my version I will screw it up every time and quit like I usually do, but I'm determined to do it different this time and that's why I'm posting this. I'm glad this board is here. Thanks for reading.

Hey, everyone. Today, I'm going to be doing a Rihanna-inspired look and I'm going to be recreating the look she wore to the 2008 New Choice Awards. The first step that I'm gonna do is apply a blue liquid eyeliner. You don't have to use a liquid eyeliner. You can use a pencil or a gel eyeliner, whatever you're most comfortable with and I'm going to start with a thin line. To create a wing, I'm going to follow my lower lash line, so that's how I'm going to be able to get the shape just as if this were to continue up. That will give me the angle that I want. And I'm just gonna take it to where the crease begins and then just sweep it back. The next step is lining the inner rim of your eye with a black eye pencil as well as the lower lash line. If you're scared of lining your lower, your inner end, lay your pencil on its side and it will be less scary than pointing it and poking yourself. So, try it out that way. Next, you're going to connect the lines between your lower lash line and your upper lash line. The great part about this eyeliner look is that it's so easy to fix a mistake. Just soak a Q-tip in some eye makeup remover and just go over anywhere you make a mistake. Complete the eyes with some of your favorite black mascara. On the lips, I'm going to use a bright pink lipstick similar to the one that's on the picture. To complete the look, I just dusted some bronzer on my cheeks and down the bridge of my nose. I hope you guys enjoyed this video. This has been Cindy, DRBrooklyn730 on YouTube. For more Beauty Smartie videos, visit Seventeen.com and I'll see you in the next one. Bye.

Pinal County is prosecuting restaurant owner Dale Bell for letting his customers dance under the stars. After the longest zoning hearing in the County's history, the hearing officer found Dale liable for running an illegal dance hall because he allows or permits dancing outside of a completely enclosed structure at his steakhouse, San Tan Flat.
Dale spent three years jumping through the County's permitting hoops before realizing his dream. After San Tan Flats opening in 2005, Dale thought he was finished dealing with County bureaucracy. But, the County's obsession with dancing proved him wrong.
San Tan Flat provides live country music outdoors, which occasionally inspires people to dance. Apparently swaying to music is fine, but if someone moves their feet they cross the line because dancing outdoors is against the law in Pinal County and the County expects Dale to act as the dance police.
The Constitution protects Dales right to earn an honest living free from unreasonable government regulation. What could be more unreasonable than saying his customers can dance inside, but not outside?
The Institute for Justice Arizona Chapter (IJ AZ), today put Pinal County bureaucrats on notice that they will be the ones facing the music as IJ-AZ seeks to vindicate Dales rights.
Jennifer M. Perkins is an attorney at the Institute for Justice Arizona Chapter and will lead the litigation team against Pinal County.

Well I liked this movie not as much as I liked Cars but it was pretty good
Mater's character is me favorite
Well I liked this movie not as much as I liked Cars but it was pretty good
Mater's character is me favorite
Hi ya.
I saw Cars2, with my son, for the midnite release. Waited for about three hours that nite to see it in IMAX 3d. Not many peopleat all in the theater for it, especially IMAX.
The IMAX broke down, so we were transferred to another theater, and all were given 2 free passes, to see future movies, of which I went to see Cowboys and Aliens (thumbs down)....
Cars 2 I saw bits of, because I was so tired from the long wait.
I thought it was good, but the spy stuff was, an easy filler, to fill out a story.
I would have liked to seen the characters from RadiatorSprings, interaxt more, and go on adventures, in the three countries, as sub stories to the whole movie. I just think the JamesBond stuff is sometimes, overdone within other movies. I plan to see Cars 2 again on DVD, watch it more carefully. Lots of stuff you dont pick up on until you watch it a few times or more.
Cars 2 good, could be better, as apposed to ToyStory 3, where we saw new characters, new locations, but not an easy fill theme from another film. Cars 2 gets 4 Lightining McQueens from me...
Cars 3?, Im hopin for....I would like to see a race across the US, all the landmarks in Cars "toon" style would be great.
I am kind of indifferent about this movie. I went in, not knowing how to feel about it. I mean, I thought the spy thing was a little weird, that they had the capacity to do things that cars couldn't do, but that was sort of the irony of the whole thing, but it works on some level. I does though make me wonder why it was all about Mater and not so much about Lightning as the other movie was. I did like the international aspect though. I love other cultures and seeing them go to these places was great. I do like that the whole message of Cars 2 is that people need to be who they are and not worry about other people. That even those who are considered 'stupid' to save the world.
Soooo, that is my deal, if I was to give a rating, 8/10

You know, with games like "Portal 2" and "L.A. Noire" capturing the public consciousness and selling millions of copies, we were in peril, for a brief moment, of having video gaming actually being taken seriously as an art form.
Duke to the rescue!
On the next slide is the NSFW launch trailer for "Duke Nukem Forever", which is pretty much everything you'd expect from Duke Nukem, only...moreso. We're not really big believers in the idea that standards somehow plummet over time, an idea mostly propagated by people who don't know their history and think fart jokes were only recently invented.
On the other hand, the launch trailer has some rapper redoing Billy Squier's "The Stroke". Take from that what you will. Triple breasted aliens and all the classic Duke weapons on the next slide.

Kotobukiya Celebrates Star Wars Celebration IV with ARTFX Exclusive
Kotobukiya announces in a recent press release that they will be attending Star Wars Celebration IV (May 24-28) and will be offering an exclusive ARTFX Statue.
The first-ever USA convention exclusive from their series of ARTFX Statues - Kotobukiya's brand name for snap fit, prepainted vinyl statues – will be YODA: SPIRIT OF THE FORCE ARTFX STATUE, featuring a LED light and voice sound chip.
Starring the Jedi Master as he appears in The Empire Strikes Back, Yoda will feature a button on his base that triggers three different phrases of original movie dialogue, as spoken by Frank Oz:
- "May the Force be with you."
- "No. Try not. Do…or do not. There is no try."
- "You must feel the Force around you. Here, between you...me...the tree...the rock...everywhere!"
Cast in translucent material, activating the LED feature will illuminate Yoda in his blue, glowing Jedi Spirit form. YODA: SPIRIT OF THE FORCE ARTFX STATUE will be limited to only 1138 pieces for Celebration IV. Each box will be individually serial numbered to ensure collectibility, as this is one of the smallest production runs for any piece in the ARTFX line.
To try to ensure that fans attending on different days of the convention will all have an opportunity to obtain a Yoda, each day's sales will be limited as follows:
- May 24th 500 pieces (Star Wars Fan Club Day)
- May 25th 300 pieces
- May 26th 200 pieces
- May 27th 100 pieces
Purchases will be limited to only 3 toys per person, but there will be no individual limit on Star Wars Fan Club Day. Yoda will retail for $60 and will be available at Kotobukiya's booth #921.
A limited quantity will also be made available for fans attending Star Wars Celebration Europe in London this July, as well as a limited quantity available for Japanese fans at Kotobukiya's chain of retail shops. Details of the exact edition size produced worldwide for this 30th Anniversary item will be printed on the back of the package.

I am not really a BE girl. I went to the store in the mall near me and wanted to try the foundation, etc, and tried their brow powder, too. Well, I ended up returning everything else but I kept the brow powder. I LOVE this. I actually bought the brow kit which came with a brush and the powder for, I think, $40. Anyway, the brush is great, the powder is a perfect match in color, and I think this gives my face great definition. I would buy again but I think that this lasts probably 2 years!
I have been a huge BE fan for quite awhile, but never tried their brow powders, I was happy using any old thing to fill my brows...I should have known that a line that does most things so well could(and did) make the most awesome brow product I have ever tried.A wonderful MUAer(thanks Trishamarie)send me the biggest RAOK gift literally overflowing with BE...this product was among the many...I have dark brown hair w/light blonde high and low lights...the BRUNETTE color is a perfect match for my brows and fills them in perfectly, makes my eyes appear finished and polished. It only takes the smallest amount of this pigment to do the job. BE makes a brow brush, but the price is a little steep...I use the small end of the dual ended brush from the November 2003 Getting Gorgeous Kit, works wonderfully. A great product that suprised me, although it really shouldn't have. I also use Jane Fan Club Clear Mascara over the top and my brows stay put all day. continued >>
I got this in Auburn. I dye my hair copper red every month. This color seemed a little too dark but it still works. It would be better for me if it was a tad bit lighter. anyway I like this very much, it lasts a long time, stays put and add that groomed pretty brows look that I want.
I had to practice applying this with a makeup artist but once I got it down, I grew to love it! Its dark enough to fill in the sparce areas but light enough to not make me look completely made up. I would highly recommend buying the eyebrow bruch with it. It's stiff bristles make application that much easiear and more accurate. You need so little for each use that the small container lasts forever.
I have sparse light brows this stuff works great to fill them in- but it is messy, you have to be very careful not to make a huge mess! I doubt I will re-purchase, this will last for years at the rate I use it :o).
This is alright but it's just eyeshadow to me. I've got ~thin~ brows and I'm very much obsessed with them. I thought the dark blond/medium brown would be perfect but it's actually much more of a dark brown than anything. I guess that makes sense. How could blond and brown possibly be the same shade? But anyway..I apply with an angled brow brush, comb thru to make it less instense, then brush over with hairspray to keep them in place and my brows look perfectly arched and filled in. It's nice but surprisingly average, nothing amazing. I'll use it up and a little goes a long way so that will take a while. I won't buy it again though.
I bought the brow powder in Strawberry/Honey Blond. LOVE THIS! I am a redhead with blond brows and I have been fighting a battle trying to find the right color for my brows. I won!!! It is very natural looking and lasts all day. The only complaint is that it is not waterproof.

Stays put, no need for touch-ups. Very easy to spill, though!

It's Up to Obama Now
Ted Kennedy may have passed the torch to Barack Obama on Monday. But tonight in the Pepsi Center, Bill Clinton passed the touch. Now it is up to Obama to take it.
In a speech of striking generosity and ringing affirmation, Clinton one-upped Michelle Obama's implicit assertion that she and her family are just like you: He asked the delegates—and the country—to consider the ways (the many good ways) in which Barack Obama is just like him.
"My fellow Democrats, 16 years ago you gave me the profound honor to lead our party to victory and to lead our nation to a new era of peace and broadly shared prosperity," Clinton said, his voice growing solemn and just a bit husky. "Together, we prevailed in a hard campaign in which Republicans said I was too young and too inexperienced to be commander-in-chief. Sound familiar? It didn't work in 1992, because we were on the right side of history. And it will not work in 2008, because Barack Obama is on the right … side … of history."In all the many months of this long campaign, I have never heard Clinton voice that self-evident, and terrifically persuasive sentiment, in anything like that forceful way. "With Joe Biden's experience and wisdom, supporting Barack Obama's proven understanding, instincts and insight, America will have the national security leadership we need." And then, just in case that carefully calibrated endorsement (in which Biden is wise and Obama just smart) didn't drive the point home, he added, "Barack Obama is ready to lead America, and restore American leadership in the world."
Whatever Clinton privately thinks of Obama – and there is plenty of evidence that he has plenty of doubts – and whatever recriminations, second-guessing and sideline sniping may yet come between the Clinton and Obama camps between now and November—in that single moment, Clinton guaranteed one thing: No one can ever say he didn't come through in the crunch.
Coming through in the crunch is Clinton's great gift, and it is also Obama's, even if Obama usually manages to create less of a self-generated crunch in the first place. His speech was not much more than 20 minutes, including at least five minutes of ringing, raucous demonstrations of love from the crowd in the hall. It was full of felicitous phrases, including a classic Ted Sorensen inversion: "People the world over have always been more impressed by the power of our example than by the example of our power." Take that, Dark Lord Dick Cheney! Even the last-minute alterations to the prepared text distributed to the press were improvements, in phrasing, logic and clarity.
Clinton neatly solved his reported discontent that he was assigned to speak about national security instead of the economy, by saying that Obama "knows that America cannot be strong abroad unless we are strong at home." He referred to his own administration not in the first person, or as a personal legacy, but as "the previous eight years" before the Bush administration.
From the moment Obama burst upon the scene, Clinton was prohibited from stating the obvious about him, which is that Obama is, for this Pepsi generation of Democrats, very much like what Clinton was 16 years ago in Madison Square Garden for his generation of Democrats: A natural. Clinton could not talk – at least not much – about their shared experiences as the sons of strong mothers and absent fathers, who made it against all the odds. He couldn't, because someone very close to him, someone not like him at all, was already running, and he owed Hillary Clinton more than he could say—including, in all probability, the survival of his presidency.
But tonight Clinton could say those things about Obama, and he did. You could almost hear the convention heave a collective sigh of relief. The evening was a palpable reminder of something the Texas journalist Ronnie Dugger once said about Lyndon Johnson, another famously flawed president. "You liked him," Dugger said. "You liked him. You liked him more when you were with him than when you were thinking about him later, but you liked him."
A couple of hours before Clinton's appearance, a rumor swept the hall that Obama would make a spontaneous appearance with Clinton on the podium, just to join hands. That turned out to not to be true, but it didn't really matter. Bill Clinton stretched out his big, skilled, deft and talented hands to Obama. And that was what counted tonight.

Pot-bellied pig case sparks local scrutinyFriday, March 6th, 2009 Issue 10, Volume 13.
Activists say the case, which took weeks to resolve, underscores some of the heart-wrenching challenges that can crop up when horses, pigs and other large animals are abandoned or left unattended. Riverside County Animal Services officials who were involved in the French Valley probe said the response also underscores the heightened public scrutiny that has spun out of deepening economic woes and a high-profile animal abuse case that unfolded earlier this year in Temecula. "It has raised a lot of peoples awareness," said John Welsh, a spokesman for the county animal control agency. Concerns over the French Valley pigs drew the involvement of neighbors, the county, animal activist groups, the real estate company that listed the property and a law firm that gave the agent advice on a newly enacted state law. The concerns surfaced in mid-February when some Pourroy Road residents grew worried over the fate of about 16 potbellied pigs left on a nine-acre parcel that had been foreclosed upon days earlier. One of the pigs had died and some of the others appeared to be old, hungry and lean, said Marianne Parker, who lives in the area. Parker and other neighbors began feeding the pigs and contacted county officials, the real estate agent and animal rescue groups. But qualms over whether the pigs could legally be removed from the property prompted ReMax agent Chris Murray to contact sheriffs officials and a Sacramento law firm that advises banks on foreclosure regulations. Murray wanted to ensure that he was meeting the requirements of a new state law, the so-called Animal Protection Bill, which took effect Jan. 1. That law, sponsored by then-Assemblyman Mark DeSaulnier (D-Martinez), allows bank representatives and real estate agents to immediately seek help for animals abandoned on foreclosed properties. A fact sheet on the new law, which was sought to eliminate ambiguities in previous regulations, cites cases of abandoned animals, many near death, that have been found by bankers and real estate brokers. The law also allows law officers to prosecute people who abandon animals in these circumstances. Murray had sought legal advice because potbellied pigs, which are often kept as pets, are classified as livestock. "Hes a real estate agent, not a livestock manager," Tracey Louper, a clerk for the law firm, said in a telephone interview. Louper said Murray also fed the pigs while he took steps to obtain a release from the former property owner. While the new law provides much-needed clarity, further amendments might be need to address lingering gray areas that banks and real estate agents are beginning to encounter, Louper said. The bills author, who is now in the state Senate, would be receptive to making changes aimed at increasing the laws effectiveness, an aide said. "You can never address all the complexities of an issue in one piece of legislation," Shara Perkins, DeSaulniers communications director, said in a telephone interview. Animal services officers and supervisors repeatedly visited the Pourroy Road property after the agency was contacted, Welsh said. But investigators concluded that the pigs condition did not warrant immediate seizure. As a result, they were allowed to remain at the site until arrangements could be made with a rescue group that offered to take the animals, Welsh said. About a dozen of the pigs were picked up last week. Another four pigs remain loose on the property and steps will be taken to lure them into a pen for eventual capture and relocation. Michael Piceno, who is active with the Southern California Association for Miniature Pot-bellied Pigs, said the French Valley case was his first exposure to the new law. He said information about its application has been slow to spread. "This was my first time to deal with it," said Piceno, who lives in San Bernardino County. "[Animals] are considered property and you have to look at that, too." As in some other high-profile cases, Welsh acknowledged that his agencys handling of the French Valley case could spark some second-guessing by neighbors or regional animal activists. "Lately theres been a lot of discussion out there on various [animal control] cases," Welsh said. "Theres sometimes the perception that more can be done or not enough has been done in certain cases." He said officials hope residents and activists trust the agencys judgment as investigators examine animal welfare conditions on a case-by-case basis. No two investigations are the same, and it would be hard to apply ironclad guidelines in all instances, he said. Welsh said the new law has become a welcome tool for animal control officials. He said his agency frequently cautions media outlets against using anecdotal accounts to jump to a conclusion that pet abandonment cases are spiking as foreclosure rates rise. "Thats really hard for us to monitor," he said. Welsh said a recent Temecula case where hundreds of dead and starving cats and dogs were discovered has heightened public scrutiny of animal neglect and abandonment cases. Such public attention as well as a groundswell of interest in potential neglect cases helps his agency identify and protect animals that might need care. The Temecula case, which occurred within the jurisdiction of another animal control agency, drew widespread media attention as a 66-year-old man was arrested and charged with felony animal cruelty. That charge is still pending against Elisao Gilbert Jimenez, who lived in a rented home in the Nicolas Valley area, and he is slated to appear in court again on Tuesday. "When you have a situation that is that dire, it makes people more attentive," Welsh said. 11 comments
I find this article extremely disheartening as I, along with Michael Piceno were the first people from SCAMPP to respond to the call of over a dozen pigs left in ghastly conditions. These pets were entombed in a small, urine soaked pen with no food or water. They were so starved and dehydrated that they were forced to consume their own feces. Only after a neighbor discovered this, were they let out of the pens to at least forage for themselves. SCAMPP was notified and responded with hundreds of pounds of feed and water as well as vet guidance on the renourishment of these emaciated animals. Several SCAMPP volunteers came together to help round up the pigs so they could be assessed and fed. Some were so close to perishing that members had to hand feed them in order to help them remember how to eat. SCAMPP is a social club not a rescue organization and most of the financial backing is supported by their members. Regular, everyday, hard working people who do everything they can to help these "throw-away animals". The down play of the animals condition is very upsetting. If animal control assesses rail thin, clearly dehydrated animals with exposed bones through flaps of hanging skin as not being a life-threatening situation then what is? And if all the other animals and livestock were removed from the property then why was the same standards not applied to the pigs? This has become an increasing concern as we (SCAMPP) are constantly receiving calls for help. Animal control officials can dilute the severity of these abandoned animals and good-hearted people will continue to do all they can to offer their support and assistance. Until then, we need to inform the public that animal abandonment IS a crime and that there are alternatives available to assist them.
The key seems to be the fact that these animals are considered "property". I think that when a person is evicted, "foreclosed", they are given 24hrs. to remove their "property". Anything left behind after that is no longer their property. Especially in rental cases. Maybe this is a state by state regulation, but if not, I would think the abandoned animals would become the "property" of the owner of the rental. Further, I would think the primary owner would be more than willing to turn these animals over through proper channels to ensure their safety.
The Sandon Shangri-La non-profit and CETA non-profit relocated the abandoned Winchester pigs to a foster location. The rescue of these pigs is being handled by the Sandon Shangri-La and CETA. Southern California Miniature Potbellied Pig Association did not handle this rescue. Thank you.
I think it's interesting that though the pigs were dying from starvation, animal control didn't think the problem was bad enough to intervene. If Marianne, SCAMPP, and other pig rescues hadn't intervened, they would have all died of starvation by now! Who's running that place?? Use your common sense for goodness sake!! Comment Continued : The comment above was written from the same location.
Tammie: Are you delusional?? If the Southern California Association for Potbelly Pigs (SCAMPP) was not involved in this rescue, than why is one of their members' pictured in this article working alongside Marianne?? As hard as they have all worked, you should be ashamed for even making that comment. Comment Continued : The comment above was written from the same location.
Tammie, Thats a very self-serving comment. Your org. may have transported, but dont make it sound like you were the only one out there. Michael and I (SCAMPP) put in some late nights long before you were even aware of the situation. And thank you for the hard work you put forth during the round up of these animals, your delegation skills were second to none. Did you even get dirty that day? Your poor husband!!! Chad
Tammie Sandon~ HOW DARE YOU!!!! LEARN HOW TO READ! SCAMPP BROUGHT POUNDS OF FOOD TO THE STARVING PIGS. SCAMPP WE'RE THE ONLY ONES THERE TO BEGIN WITH. IF IT WASN'T FOR SCAMPP THE PIGS WOULD OF DIED BEFORE YOU EVEN GOT THERE!!!!
It's wonderful that SCAMPP was the first to bring food, etc. to the starving pigs. I met some of their members and thought they were quite kind. As far as rescued, I'm referring to the end result for these abandoned pigs. My comment was not meant to be self-serving but accurate as to what happened to the pigs. The pigs were removed by The Sandon Shangri-La & CETA, are being fostered, two have been neutered and they are all getting stronger each day. As far as debating, I'll spend my energies helping these potbellied pigs!
I would like to set the record straight on this. I am saddened to see the comments from the various rescues. These pigs would not have survived if it hadn't been for everyone involved and to attack each other when we have the same goals is disheartening to me. Myself and some of the neighbors had been feeding the pigs PRIOR to anyone else getting involved. I called all of the rescue groups due to the number of pigs involved. These pigs would have survived with our help since we were buying food and supplies with our own money PRIOR to recieving any help. I did have help from SCAMPP members Mike, Monique and Chad. We were able to catch of few more of the pigs so they could be properly cared for and yes they did bring pig food as well as the other rescue groups. Also, we had lots of assistance from Pam and supplies as well. Sandon Shangri-La and CETA worked for days to help catch the remainder of the pigs and to medicate, vaccinate and worm them and get them into foster care and to put up proper fencing at their own expense. All of the organizations did a super job so again I am extremely saddened to see the comments here which undermines the whole purpose of the rescue and gives people the wrong message. I personally will not join any organization that finds it necessary to bad mouth others when the main purpose is to save the pigs since Animal Control was going to euthanize them. I am thankful for all the help but please stop and think before you write comments that won't do anything but further harm everyone involved.
I wonder why it is that that those in the animal field do not work together, support each other, say kind words and help each other in a positive manner the way police and fire personnel do. It is not about our egos. It is about all of us being in this work to help the animals and do what is best for them cooperatively. I applaud of you that helped with the rescue of these poor pigs and I hope that the person that abandoned them is charged with abandonment.
Why isn't the people who had the pigs proscuted for abandonment of the pigs. Couldn't they have asked for some time to find homes for the pigs. I don't know the law so I am just asking.

2012 farmers markets
Article Extras
Updated: September 14, 2012 12:16PM
When you go to the farmers market this spring and summer, if what's for sale is different from what you expect, blame this season's wacky weather.
"Mother Nature has not cooperated," says Paul Thelen of Hillside Orchards in Berrien Springs, Mich., who sells fruit at seven Chicago area farmers markets.
"It's been a strange spring so far," agrees Henry Brockman of Henry's Farm outside Peoria.
March 2012 was the warmest on record in the Midwest, with temperatures averaging 50.3 degrees, breaking the previous, 1910 record of 46.9 degrees, according to the Midwestern Regional Climate Center at the Illinois State Water Survey. That was good news and bad news for produce growers, especially when the warm stretch was followed by some hard frosts.
"One of the challenges for the farmer is determining when the last frost date will be," says Dr. William Shoemaker, vegetable crops specialist with the University of Illinois Cooperative Extension Service Department of Crop Sciences in St. Charles. That date determines when it's safe to plant.
Early this year, the U.S. Department of Agriculture released a new version of its Plant Hardiness Zone Map, the first update since 1990, which reflected an average 5 degrees and half a zone warmer than the previous map throughout much of the United States, based on data measured at weather stations from 1976 to 2005. That puts the last frost date for each area earlier, too.
However, those are averages, Shoemaker notes. "Day-to-day experience is a little more chaotic."
"We got some stuff planted earlier than usual. A lot of stuff got burned and frosted," Brockman says.
Even without damage, the warm early spring throws plants' and farmers' timing off. Some produce may have grown and been harvested before most markets open, or be on sale earlier than expected.
"The product is ready, but the money isn't," says Thelen. "People aren't expecting sweet cherries before the 4th of July."
"Farming is a risk," says Carl Smith of Smits Farms in Chicago Heights. "We had beautiful chives ready two weeks ago."
Smith grows herbs and vegetables that he sells at eight local farmers markets as well as at his greenhouse and a farmstand that opens in July. With no markets yet, he had to mow the chives down. Fortunately, Smith says, herbs grow back after such treatment.
Some crops, however, like grapes and apricots, may have been irretrievably harmed by the weather. How much damage growers experienced depends on precisely where their farms lie and what they grow.
According to Shoemaker, Michigan was harder hit by weather vagaries than Illinois, in part because when the warm stretch ended, it got colder there. Also, farmers there grow more fruit trees and perennial crops, which came out of dormancy in the warmth and thus were vulnerable to frosts.
"When the tree is dormant, it can take a lower temperature," explains Thelen, who grows chestnuts, apples, peaches, cherries and other fruit. "There's a lot of damaged buds. You cut them and they're black inside. It doesn't look good."
In Illinois, says Harry Alten, president of the Illinois Specialty Growers Association, "rain kind of held the ice back." Also, most vegetable growers plant annually and later, so they're not as affected. Farmers who jumped the gun and sowed seed early may have to replant, but seed is the least expensive part of farming. Mostly, though, Alten says, farmers were leery of planting in the unseasonable warmth. "They don't trust it."
"The main thing we did was practice restraint," says Marty Gray of Gray Farms, who grows greens and other vegetables in Watseka, Ill., and sells them at the Division Street and Hyde Park farmers markets. He did some trials of early spinach and carrots, but mostly didn't let the warm weather tempt him into sowing earlier than usual. Instead, he worked in his greenhouse and he and his wife, Crystal, planned their website where she will post recipes for CSA subscribers this season.
"Sugar snap peas were really the only thing that took a hit," Gray says.
Restraint also has been tough for Smith. "Mentally, I want to be in the field planting tomatoes, because the ground is dry and the air is warm," he says. He held off, though he did take a few risks. "This was the first year I ever planted corn in March."
If all goes well, he expects to harvest it by July 1 and might open his farmstand early.
Brockman, who sells at the Evanston Farmers Market, expects spinach, which he planted under cover in the fall, will be ready when the market opens, and early lettuce, grown in hoop houses. "The radishes got zapped." Potted plants and vegetable starts for home gardeners will be available.
"I think the strawberries will be early," Alten says.
"Year by year, the trend is for earlier spring, later fall, hotter summers," says Brockman. "I don't think anyone can argue that global warming is happening. They can argue about whether man is the cause of it."

Mount Sims
This biographical article needs additional citations for verification. (March 2011) |
This article may contain improper references to self-published sources. (May 2010) |
Mount Sims (also Mt. Sims) is the stage name of Matthew Sims, a Berlin-based American DJ, performance artist, producer, and former lead singer and bassist of the Milwaukee-based band Citizen King. Starting Mount Sims as a purely electronic music act, later releases have also shown influences from post punk, new wave, and darkwave. Sims is almost exclusively responsible for every aspect of his music, providing vocals, instrumentation, and production. He was originally supported by two dancers, whereas the last incarnation under the altered spelling Mt. Sims was a three-piece band that included Rand Twigg on bass and Andre Lange on drums.
His first album, "Ultra Sex" (2002/International DeeJay Gigolo Records (Europe) and Emperor Norton Records (USA)), was released to good reviews. It was influenced by German and British New Wave bands, funk, and electronica. It was a concept album that focused on the themes of technology and sexuality. The album contains the tracks "How We Do" and "Rational Behaviour."
Mount Sims' second album "Wild Light" (2005/International Deejay Gigolo) is a much darker album than the previous release. Its themes are death and information. Major musical influences are darkwave and post punk. David J. of Bauhaus played bass on some of Wild Light's songs. Roger Manning, Jr. was responsible for some of the synth production. It contains the songs "No Yellow lines," "Lights on," and "Restless," a single featured in Amped 3.
Mount Sims is responsible for Madonna's remixes of her song "Nobody Knows Me," from her 2003 album American Life, in which he was noted to time compress a speech by Charles Manson in order to construct different electronic drums, which he then placed in the remix.
Mt. Sims' third album "Happily Ever After" (2008/Hungry Eye Records) continues on the influences of the previous release with its themes focusing on obsession, isolation, horror, and madness. It was produced by Thomas Stern of Crime & the City Solution and features guest appearances by Jessie Evans (formerly of Subtonix, Autonervous, and The Vanishing), Toby Dammit (Swans, The Residents, and Iggy Pop), and Bryan Black (Motor). The album artwork was created by Peter Wu with layout by Dez of Crossover.
In 2008, he joined the band The Silures, which was founded by Vitalic and Linda Lamb in 2002. In 2009, he quit the group.
In 2010, he collaborated with The Knife and Planningtorock on the electronic opera Tomorrow, In a Year. It is based on Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species and was released as a studio album.
It was also in 2010 that he collaborated with Warp Records artist Leila for her album U&I, of which he contributed his voice to her electronic compositions.

"The incendiary grenade is a thrown explosive in Fallout Tactics.
It is quite potent in early stages of the game, when used against raiders and beastlords. However it's not quite as useful against supermutants and especially robots. Low availability coupled with early access also contributes towards making this an early-game weapon.
Incendiary grenades have a default ammo variant of 'Flame', which means they're more effective against unarmored targets.

text: The International Housewares Association (IHA) name Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., the third annual gia World Honoree. The company will be presented with the award at a special gia gala in Chicago during the 2008 International Home and Housewares Show, March 16-18, 2008. Gia honors retailing excellence around the world. Selected because of its superior global logistics and operations and highly efficient inventory management, Wal-Mart has succeeded at combining technology and world-class retailing, while remaining true to its mission of saving people money so they can live better, according to gia. Wal-Mart has more than 6000 store locations around the world, according to gia, a joint initiative of the International Housewares Association and the International Home and Housewares Show Among the strategies behind Wal-Mart's winning logistics program recognized by gia is a store density strategy with an expertly formulated stocking system. For example, Wal-Mart builds new stores close to existing stores to reduce shipping and delivery. The company also keeps in-store inventory low, relying on frequent restocking from its distribution centers, which are typically within 250 miles from the stores they service. Wal-Mart also hopes to further improve inventory management at its Wal-Mart stores and Sam's Clubs by staying on the leading edge of electronic product code testing and implementation. And as one of the first companies to put supply chain management at the forefront of its enterprise, Wal-Mart's warehousing lowers storage and handling costs, which in turn, allows the company to pass savings on to its customers. In addition, according to gia, Wal-Mart realized that it could further reduce operating costs by eliminating waste and becoming a more sustainable company. In as such, the company has focused on reducing energy consumption. Wal-Mart is striving to achieve a 20% energy reduction by 2012 for its existing stores, and 25% to 30% energy reduction for stores built after 2009. In addition, as the company announced in 2005, it hopes to cut greenhouse gases from stores and distribution centers by 20% and make its trucking operations 25% more fuel-efficient over the coming three years. |

Aurora theater shooting: City asks judge to consider lifting gag order against it
The City of Aurora has asked the judge in the theater shooting case to revise a gag order that prohibits law enforcement agents from discussing what happened. "The city has refused numerous requests...to give presentations regarding the theater shooting," an attorney for the city wrote in a motion filed Tuesday. Most requests have come from other law enforcement agencies and municipalities "seeking to learn from the city's response here," the motion says.
Given that "extensive factual testimony" was heard at a preliminary hearing last week, the city's attorney argues that Judge William Sylvester should consider whether the gag order "is now moot." The attorney notes that the evidence presented in court included two 911 calls made during and after the July 20 attack that were preserved by the city.
The motion asks that the judge at least allow Aurora police and fire command staff "to speak publicly about the city's response to the theater shootings, and to release the recordings of the two 911 calls played in open court." Those actions, the attorney wrote, "will not potentially jeopardize any investigation or the fairness of the judicial process here, because the evidence has already been revealed to millions of people worldwide."
Read the full motion below.
Motion Regarding Reconsideration of Pre-Trial Publicity Orders

Bruce Power
Credits: File photo
KINCARDINE, ON - Bruce Power returned to restarting two mothballed nuclear reactors after workers repaired a pump system early Tuesday morning.
Company spokesman John Peevers said "a valve or part of a valve" failed, leading to the leak. It was detected early Saturday morning. Crews isolated the problem and repaired it.
The Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission posted a statement on its website that says "there was no release to the environment and no plant worker received any dose (of radiation)...The other units in the Bruce A station were not affected."
On Monday, Peevers the setback "was not entirely unexpected. We are going to be heating up systems and starting up equipment that hasn't been operational for 17 years. We knew we were going to hit some bumps along the road. That's why we're taking a slow, steady, safety-first approach."
On Friday, Bruce Power received permission from the CNSC to remove the reactor shutdown guarantees on the Unit 2 reactor, which allowed the company to start it up for final checks before bringing it online.
When it's fully operational and online, the Unit 2 reactor will be capable of producing enough electricity to power 500,000 homes.
There is no timeline for Unit 2 to be fully operational, Peevers said.
When the Unit 1 and 2 restart project was originally announced in 2005, the cost of the program was estimated at $2.75 billion, with electricity production to begin by late 2009 or early 2010.
The cost has risen to $4.8 billion.
The power plant is located about 240 km northwest of Toronto on the eastern shore of Lake Huron.

Breakfast Topic: Having fun in old, familiar places {WoW}
Aug 26th 2010 6:16PM Generally, I only have two official PuGs in my groups. The primary make-up is my husband, a friend and me. We rotate tanking, healing and DPS roles to speed up queue times.
After constantly getting Old Kingdom, it was my turn to tank, and we get Old Kingdom...again. I'm on my Druid, my husband is healing on his Shaman, and our friend is on his Hunter. My husband is sitting next to me mumbling about how bored he is healing when I'm bear tanking.
I whisper our friend to make sure he keeps MD up on me as much as possible (he forgets). I switch to bear form, and put on my Moonkin gear. I let my friend and the rest of the group know what I'm doing. I tank the entire run in caster gear.
The whole time, my husband is sweating bullets because he can't figure out why I'm taking so much damage. I was able to hold aggro the almost the whole run. The hunter's pet tanked a couple of trash mobs here and there.
After it was done, I do a /p and say "That ladies and gents is how you tank in caster gear." The party busts up laughing and my husband starts cussing up a storm. Good times.

KEEP THE STOCKINGS!!! Rylsky is one of the few who consistently has his models wear them.
Right on, Hello. If members have singled out various things in the past, let's see them. Get rid of the damn stockings!
That said, Liza is a lovely thing. I hadn't seen her before. In think my favorite image is #94. She's staring down at her ass like she's really proud of it—as well she should be.
Keep the stockings.
Gorgeous model, hot body, really nice ass
Very pretty girl. Disarming smile. Nice body, and especially her legs and derriere. Don't stay away so long, and hope to see her again, soon.
The set is very welcome because some members perhaps didn't notice her until now. But a question to the photographer: many members tagged Liza E with "great legs, pretty feet, sexy feet, s.toes..." because of her first sets rightly. Why are these marvelous legs veiled in the last five sets without exception?
Totally agreed! Rylskky is my favourite artist ever in Met-Art for two reasons: 1) He is really good/ 2) He always get fabulous shots of her model's feet. No one makes it so well as him...
Another set in Rilsky´s favourite location;Rilsky´s Walls.The walls where the
photographer brings the models into justice,wash their bodies in a sea of flashes and then extinguish the fire pouring wáter over them.Tremble with fear,girls,"R" is coming....!
The seller
Niza! Me encanta ver a una mujer cuando está dejando ello abrir de esa manera! Gracias, cariño!
Dreadful photos often repeated.
Beautiful girl, beautifully spread, Liza shows us her full majesty wonderfully and without inhibition.
Great looking girl!!! Nice set too, but also appears to be 3-4 yrs old.
No matter....very nice. Liza hasn't had a set posted for about 4 yrs so I haven't seen her before, but intend to explore all her sets. Very alluring model.
I followed up on your suggestion, Rock. She's done some fantastic sets. I'm a sucker for wet sets and she's done a couple, including her very first. They are very hot. The water hisses, like a drop on a hot stove :)
lol You beat me to it myshkin, I still haven't had a chance to do that. Sounds good though. She really is a fox!!
Super sexy face and lovely brown eyes. Kissable!

Re:Fallacy (246 comments)

Re:Measurement (371 comments)
Just to clarify, when you say "Alpha Particles" and "Beta Particle" are not dangerous unless ingested, what you really mean is, "Alpha Particle EMITTERS" and "Beta Particle EMITTERS" are not too dangerous unless ingested. Once the Alpha Particle or Beta Particle is emitted by decay, it flys off with a given energy until it rams into somethinng (like your DNA). Now, if the emitter is outside your body, your skin will pretty much stop it and unless the source is particularly strong, you're in little danger. But, if you ingest the emitter, then as the Alpha and Beta Particles (Alpha is two protons and two neutrons, if memory serves correctly, basically equivalent to a fast moving helium nuclei with an extra neutron, Beta particles are fast moving, free electrons and positrons). NOTE: I'm 100% sure you know all of the above and isn't meant to correct you, but, to help clarify for others who might not know. I felt that the way you said, "unless alpha and beta particles are ingested" could be misunderstood by someone who hasn't read about this subject much.

I am the IT Manager of a mid-sized Health Care company of about 150 employees. I am currently preparing to switch all our users from using IE to FF (with IE Tab Extension for IE-Only sites/applications). Why? The feature-set of FF is far more standard and is MUCH MUCH faster for just about everything we need to do with our custom-built in-house and web-based business partner applications. For all our internal stuf, we will continue to test with IE to make sure it is as least marginally usable, but, we're not going to worry about the worthless performance of IE any longer. Trust me, it is not even a competition. FF and Chrome both are orders of magnitude faster in every way (actual use). You don't need a stopwatch to see it either. You just need to use it. The difference is DRAMATIC. Testing and deploying new version of FF every 3 months will be absolutely zero problem. Anyone who finds that challenging, should probably be in another profession.
You are incredibly naive (835 comments)
The fine for the employer is a simple cost of doing business. Save $100,000.00 per month on wages, pay an $10,000.00 fine now and then. Getting sent back to their "Home Country" is life-devastating for the "Criminal Brown People". Not the same thing at all.
You're a criminal. (835 comments)
Do you ever speed? J-Walk? Ever run a stop-sign? If you answer "Yes" to any of those questions (or similar questions) you are as much a "Criminal" as they are. If you claim to be able to answer "No" to all such questions, then you're a LIAR!

I donated significant money to the Obama campaign. If this doesn't stop by Sunday, and congress hasn't approved this action, I'd think that congress should file articles of impeachment. Sorry, but the President cannot be above the law.
Re:Summary AND article misleading (210 comments)
is that the ICE and border guard hasn't managed to implement an automated neutron scanner yet, but a 17-years-old kid managed to
Well, here is another example proving that most of what people say on the internet is complete bullshit. Everytime there is something I actually KNOW FOR CERTAIN BECAUSE I WAS THERE I see tons of comments by people, including reporters and new organizations, that show they don't know WTF they are talking about yet they shoot off their mouths like they actually know something. In fact, ICE/CBP DOES have automated neutron detectors, and they don't rely on radiating. They are passive. They use Sodium-Iodide Crystals to detect Gamma Radiation and Helium 3 detectors for Neutrons. They are highly sensitive. I know, because I worked as a contractor developing software for the management and control of the systems. I also helped to deploy them in England, Amsterdam, and place in the US, and helped to test them at Nevada Test Site. It's comments like the parent that reminde how full of shit most people, including so-called professionals, actually are. The problem is people actually believe whoever shoots off their mouth the loudest, most frequently, in the most obnoxious manner. Most people have never produced anything of value in their entire life and yet go around shooting off their mouth at every opportunity.
Re:Faulty Assumtions (615 comments)
No, they wouldn't. They'd be represented as mult-byte characters. You'd still have a password consisting of some number of bits. How would you enter the Chinese character? Do you have keyboard with all the thousands of characters? No? Then you'd need to enter the unicode equivalent (e.g \u2023 or somesuch). Which would end up being between 2 and 6 bytes. Why not just type 2 to 6 other characters. It would be nearly equivalent.
