Additional NotesComplaint: We had a gentleman come out to get a quote for fencing. I had to call a week later to get the quote emailed to me as they hadn't sent it yet. When they did I was pleasantly surprised by the quote so I called to verify that the quote was for the complete install of my entire fence. I was told it was. I had decided at that price to not look any further and to go ahead with Butte Fence as it was such a great deal. While I was working on financing I called Butte Fence a number of times to assure that the price quoted was the correct price and to let them know we were just working on our financing and we were planning to go through them. Every time I talked to a gentleman named ***. Everytime he assured me that was the correct price and that they just needed half down to get started. Once our financing was complete I had my husband go put the half down. Not much later he got a phone call from Butte Fence telling him that the quote we were given was a quote for only HALF of our fence!! In complete shock since I had called to verify this so many times, I called and talked to *** to figure out what was going on and why we were misled and all he said was that he apologized and we could come get our money since he wasn't going to give us half our fence for free. He never once sounded sincere about his apology, or like our business even matters. He basically just dismissed my complaint and my business. I would think that when a customer calls to verify a quote that you would thoroughly verify it. And not just once but 3 different times!!!! Desired Settlement: I would like Butte Fence to either honor what I was told a number of times or to atleast attempt to resolve this in some way. I put in the work to get financing based on the quote that I was given 3 different times and I feel as though they are completely dismissing their mistake and responsibility here as a company. I would like to be contacted by the owner to discuss this and at the very least get the sincere apology I deserve. Business Response: **** ** ** ******** ** * ********* **** ** *** ****** ******** ****** ** **** ***** ******** I sincerely apologize to **** ******* for any misleading statements I might have made during our phone conversations. I can assure you I never intended to obfuscate the total cost of her fence project at any time. I take as many as 40 phone calls in any given day and I do not recall speaking with **** ******* regarding the fence quotes issued to her by our *** ******* ****. Quote #39224, 39225, 39226 and 39227 were E-Mailed to **** ******* at "************* on 9/24/13 at 10:30 A.M and were in her possession at the time of her request for funds from ************ Butte Fence welcomes the opportunity to continue working with **** ******* on this project or any future project.

Additional NotesComplaint: We hired this company to build a small vinyl fence and gate across our driveway. First, they put the posts in wrong. We told the installer that the posts were not correct so he dug them up and put them in again. Again, they were not straight or sunk deep enough. Also, the holes for the rails did not lineup. It took us 2 weeks to get them to send someone out to look at the mess. Finally, someone came out and said they would redo them, which they did a few days later. Then they said they would be back to hang the rails and gates this week, now they say it will be next week...maybe, because they are having trouble getting the paint to seal. We paid 1/2 up front and all we get is excuses. Desired Settlement: I want the fence up no later than Tuesday 08/6/13, which is the "current" promise date. I also want some kind of compensation for all the phone calls, headaches, and delays that we have had to deal with. If the owner/supervisor had come to look when we first told him the job wasn't correct this could have been avoided, but he said he was too busy and we had to keep calling for 2 weeks! We are still having to keep calling and all we get are excuses Business Response: I have talked with my staff to get up to speed on this project. I understand that the crew went out to the job the day we were scheduled. The posts got installed incorrectly. We wanted to get it correct so we sent a new crew out there and puled them and reset them correctly. We could not order the custom made steel gate frames until the posts were set right. Once they were set correctly we ordered the gates to be made. The customer was told this was a couple week process due to the gates needing to be powder coated. This is something that is outsourced and is out of our hands as far as how quickly they get turned around and back to us. The customer calls several times a day thinking that this will speed things up and it just simply doesn't work that way. We have tried to keep the customer apprised to the status. we were told the gates would be done on Tuesday the 6th of August. We will pick them up and get them to our shop so we can add the vinyl portion to the gate. We will then have the crew out there to finish the project on Wednesday the 7th of August.

Additional NotesComplaint: Butte Fence did not show up or call on the scheduled day to install our fence. My husband called them at the end of the day and they told him we were actually scheduled for the following day (which was wrong) and that they would be out between 10 and 11 in the morning. So the following day came and they didn't show up or call - again! I called after hours when I got home from work and left a message and asked to be called first thing in the morning by someone in management. I waited for 20 minutes after they opened and didn't get a call, so I had to call. They connected me with *****, who is supposedly a manager of some kind, but he sounded like a young guy who just woke up and could have cared less about my complaint. He did call his installer and called me right back (the only positive in the whole situation). He said his installer would be out between 10 and 11. I asked what happened and how they were going to make it right. He said his installer must have gotten behind and should have called, but he didn't. I told him it was an inconvenience for us because they are not the only contractors with are working with currently, and it was only then that he FINALLY apologized. He said all they could do is come out and do the install and that he understands it's an inconvenience but... oh well, I guess? Desired Settlement: Being a business owner myself, customer service is a TOP priority. I think there should always be good communication (which there was not); a sincere, immediate apology (which there was not); and ultimately it would have been nice to receive some sort of discount for the inconvenience and lack of consideration, like 10% off our installation or something. We don't feel valued by this company at all. I wish our hard earned money would have gone to a company who cared about their clients. Business Response: I am responding to the complaint submitted on May 16th from a ******** ******. I have tried contacting Jennifer to address the issues she discusses in her complaint. She has not called me back to discuss the issue. We talked about the complaints she had with our company in our weekly meeting this morning. We take customer service very seriously. We felt badly about the fact that we didn't start her job on time. **** in our office did tell her that the crew was running one day late. She seemed ok with that at the time but then later called in after hours and left a message stating how unhappy she was. ***** our Operation Manager did talk with her and apologized that there was a delay. We are sorry she didn't feel it was heartfelt. I assure you that it was. I am willing to discuss this with her but she has yet to call me back. Let me know if there is anything else you need from me. Thanks Jared Bell President Butte Fence, Inc. 2049 E. Wilson Lane Consumer Response: Better Business Bureau: I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID *******. I have since been able to get a hold of the business contact (he had left me a message, I had left him one...) and we had a nice, calm discussion about the complaint. He apologized and assured me that their business does indeed take customer service very seriously and they do value me as a customer. He did offer to extend a 10% discount for the inconvenience, which I was very appreciative of. Regards, ******** ****** |

Local lawmakers oppose Medicaid expansion
Wyoming is subsidizing its beer drinkers, and it's time to stop, a local lawmaker says.
Hot outside shooting keys Lady Panther wins
Deadly shooting from behind the 3-point line helped the Powell High School girls' basketball team pull away from Star Valley (43-26) and Jackson (67-35) on Friday and Saturday.
Seeing the issue as now moot, Park County commissioners have dropped their appeal of a state decision that allows a Big Horn County landfill to accept trash from the city of Powell.
After picking up two decisive wins over the weekend, the Powell High School girls basketball team finds itself at the head of Class 3A West.
A Powell man remains in intensive care at a Billings hospital after suffering a head injury in a Jan. 19 altercation.
It was a tight back-and-forth battle between the Powell and Cody high school girls' basketball teams. And then the third quarter happened.
Paul Cardwell has received 10 years in federal prison for embezzling nearly $1.7 million from hospitals he oversaw in Powell and Indiana.
Park County commissioner's lobbying in Cheyenne pays off
After persuading Wyoming's governor, secretary of state, treasurer, auditor and superintendent of public instruction to override the recommendation of their staff, Park County will receive $500,000 for a new building at the Park County Fairgrounds.
Fewer people died on Wyoming and Park County roads in 2013 than in previous years.

Report: Snyder says football is 'in a bad place'
APR 17, 2013 4:26p ET
Snyder also has never been much for saying interesting things to the media, so when he offers a broad, vaguely ambiguous opinion about the state of College Football, people notice.
The long and short of it is, Snyder is concerned. The game, he told the Kansas City Star, is in a "bad place."
"We've allowed it to be TV-driven, and allowed it to become more important to a university than it should be," Snyder said. "We're educational institutions, and what's really important is trying to enhance the lives of young people and give them guidance and direction to help themselves."
When asked if the sad state of affairs could drive him from the game, he suggested it could.
"You're not too far away," he said. "You're absolutely right."
This is where it's helpful to know Snyder is 73 years old, and has already retired once (in 2005). When he took over the program again in 2009 after the calamitous Ron Prince era, Snyder said he was back only to "calm the waters" at Kansas State. So Snyder may be hinting at retirement, and he may be suggesting the capitalism and unfairness are driving him out, and that may be true. But it isn't the only thing.
Snyder signed a five-year, $14.75 million extension with Kansas State in January.

As a Lebanon Police Officer, Henry Keene has seen the effects drugs and poor decisions can have on individuals and the community.
As the Lebanon DARE Officer, he tries to teach children how to make good decisions.
"It's teaching kids to make decisions when nobody's looking," Keene said. "When they are under peer pressure, are they able to evaluate and respond and make a good decision?"
Keene, 46, said DARE did not exist when he was growing up, and he thinks about that whenever he arrests someone close to his own age.

Big Data
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency is looking for a new way for defense and other government agencies -- and eventually the public -- to search the ocean of Internet data more deeply.
The research agency said it wants ways to perform user-defined, domain-specific searches of public information, instead of the current commercial one-size-fits-all approach that uses the same set of search tools for all inquiries.
In a Feb. 9 statement, DARPA said that while that commercial approach has been wildly successful, it doesn't work as well for some government applications.
For example, commonly used search systems remain mostly manual processes that don't save sessions, require almost exact input with one-at-a-time entry, and don't organize or aggregate results beyond a list of links. They also miss information that could be embedded deeper in the web that aren't indexed by standard search engines, and skip over information that might be shared across web pages.
DARPA's statement said the initial application for its deep-web "Memex" program would enhance the Defense Department's efforts to combat human trafficking, a scourge that has a significant web presence. Using a more flexible search technology, DARPA contends the DoD could look deeper into online forums, chats, advertisements, job postings, hidden services and other out-of-the-way sites that enable the growing industry of modern slavery. An index curated for the counter-trafficking domain, along with configurable interfaces for search and analysis, would unlock new opportunities to uncover and derail trafficking enterprises, the DARPA statement said.
DARPA launched the Memex program looking to develop a next-generation search engine that will allow users to extend the reach of current search capabilities and quickly and thoroughly organize subsets of information based on individual interests. The program, the agency said, also aims to produce search results that are more immediately useful to specific domains and tasks, and to improve the ability of military, government and commercial enterprises to find and organize mission-critical publicly available information on the Internet.
"We're envisioning a new paradigm for search that would tailor indexed content, search results and interface tools to individual users and specific subject areas, and not the other way around," Chris White, DARPA program manager, said in the statement. "By inventing better methods for interacting with and sharing information, we want to improve search for everybody and individualize access to information. Ease of use for non-programmers is essential."
Through its solicitation, DARPA said, the program would explore three technical areas of interest: domain-specific indexing, domain-specific search, and DoD-specified applications.
DARPA noted that it is not interested in proposals for attributing anonymous services, deanonymizing or attributing identity to servers or IP addresses, or accessing information not intended to be publicly available. The agency said the program plans to use commodity hardware and emphasize creating and leveraging open source technology and architecture.
The agency plans a proposer's day on Feb 18 in Arlington, Va., to familiarize interested parties with the program.

Crusaders vault ahead in CAL United
Written by Brian Cunniff Wednesday, January 23, 2013 08:54 am
< Prev | Next > |
NORTH WILDWOOD – Talk about making a statement.
The Wildwood Catholic High School boys basketball team avenged its only loss of the season and took control of the Cape-Atlantic United Conference in the process Tuesday night.
The Crusaders, who lost to Sacred Heart on opening night for their lone defeat of the season to date, ran out to a 16-4 lead after one period and led 34-12 at the half in what turned out to be a dominating 58-32 victory over the Lions.
Wildwood Catholic improved to 12-1 overall, 7-1 in United Conference games, while Sacred Heart dropped to 8-7, 7-2.
Sacred Heart had beaten the Crusaders 60-54 on opening night.
"We're a completely different team than we were back on Dec. 14," Wildwood Catholic coach Dave DeWeese said in an interview on capemaycountysports.com following the game. "The kids have worked very hard the last 40 days or so and they've improved tremendously. The biggest improvement has been on the defensive end of the floor. We're setting the tone early in games with our defensive pressure and defensive presence and that's benefitted us by giving us the opportunity to get a lead early in games and play from there."
Eddie McWade, completely healthy for this game against Sacred Heart, dominated in the paint at both ends of the floor for the Crusaders. He made eight field goals and shot 8 for 10 from the foul line for a game-high 25 points. McWade managed to score in double figures the first time the teams played but was still nowhere near 100 percent after coming off a severe ankle sprain that had sidelined him for nearly two weeks in the preseason.
"It's very special," McWade said of Tuesday's win on capemaycountysports.com. "This is what we've been looking forward to all season, to play them again, and to win like this is great."
Clinton Freeman added 12 points and seven rebounds for the Crusaders.
Wildwood Catholic limited Sacred Heart's Mike Holloway, one of the top young players in the CAL who does much of his work in the paint, to only six points. McWade drew the assignment of guarding Holloway for most of the game.
"I was just fronting him and everyone else was playing good help-side (defense) behind me to take away the lob," McWade said.
Wildwood Catholic is maturing perhaps a year ahead of time. The Crusaders' starting lineup features four juniors and a sophomore. But while the team could be among South Jersey's best next season, that doesn't mean Wildwood Catholic isn't making waves throughout the region already. In addition to avenging the loss to Sacred Heart, Wildwood Catholic has also earned signature victories over Rancocas Valley, Penns Grove Central Bucks East (Pa.) and Wildwood.
"I think this is a pretty special team right now," DeWeese said. "They've accomplished a lot already, more than I thought they'd be able to accomplish at this point. They've grown and they've gotten more confidence. Individually, each of them has improved. Everyone's gotten better, and that's why we're where we are right now. They've worked hard to get better and they're playing as a team. And I can't emphasize enough what they're doing on the defensive end of the floor."
Wildwood Catholic faces another conference opponent tonight (Thursday, Jan. 24) in Cape May Tech. The Crusaders are then scheduled to participate in the Jeff Coney Classic showcase event Saturday at Rancocas Valley High School, where they'll face Bishop Eustace.

Encouraging readers to be intelligent and skillful in their practice, this new collection by Thich Nhat Hanh outlines the essential steps by which we can all obtain real and lasting happiness. Each day, we perform the tasks of everyday life without thought or awareness walking, sitting, working, eating, driving, and much more. But Hanh points out that if we remain truly aware of our actions, no matter the task we're performing, we can stay engaged in our lives and better our outlook through mindfulness. This key practice is the foundation for this accessible, easy-to-understand volume, and an invaluable tool for change for both seasoned Buddhist practitioners and lay readers interested in bettering their lives through full awareness.

The DNA results are in on Pig
They say everything has a beginning, a middle and an end, but when it comes to an Alabama dog named Pig, she seems to have gotten short-changed on that middle part.
Between her sizable head and her rear end, there's not much real estate, and as a result of her abbreviated torso, taking her out in public has always led to a lot of stares, and a lot of questions — chief among them, "What kind of dog is that?"
What accounts for Pig's unusual appearance is called short spine syndrome, a birth defect that prevents the spine from fully forming and often makes everyday tasks — like running, jumping and eating — difficult.
Dogs with the disorder — though it can compress their organs and lead to health problems as they grow — generally can lead normal lives, and reach their full life expectancy.
They can also, as in Pig's case, become international celebrities.
Pig developed a large following after appearing at this year's Do Dah Day festival in Birmingham. She was featured in a story on AL.com, and her Facebook page, "Pig the Unusual Dog," created in June, has more than 76,500 followers.
Now, following up on just what it is that makes Pig Pig, AL.com reports that her owner, Kim Dillenbeck of Helena, has received the results of a DNA test she had conducted on the dog to determine what breeds are in her.
A Wisdom Panel test says Pig is a Boxer, Chow Chow, American Staffordshire Terrier mix.
Dillenbeck who has heard guesses ranging from her dog being half rabbit to half not there, was surprised by the results.
"Everybody thought Akita," Dillenbeck said. "I was was thinking something like a smaller dog, but I was wide open … Pig has all these interesting traits, and there are so many breeds out there."
Other breeds showing up in the test results as possibilities include Portuguese Water Dog, Alaskan Klee Kai, Scottish deerhound, Lakeland terrier and Maltese.
Pig weighs in at just 16 pounds, much less than one of her siblings, who doesn't have the disorder and weighs just under 40 pounds.
Dillenbeck's experience with Pig led her to form the nonprofit Pig's Foundation to help raise funds for people and organizations rescuing animals. Another mission of the foundation is to raise awareness that animals who look unusual can still have a happy life.
"Pig is her own breed," Dillenbeck said. "To me, she is just one in a million. As much as I can see her potential in all these breeds, she is still just Pig."

Do we really need a "war" against dog poop?
In the annals of Gotham's crimefighting superheroes, Abby Weissman might not go down as one of the all-time greatest.
But at least he will be noted for capturing a dog pooping on camera and, far more important, that doggie's caretaker not picking it up.
Faster than a speeding bullet, he posted it on Facebook:
In the post, Weissman fires a first blow in his quest for justice, and calls upon others to join in fighting the scourge of canine caretakers who don't pick up after their charges — by submitting photos and videos of scofflaws caught in the act to his block association's Facebook page.
Weissman is president of the South Oxford Street Block Association in New York's Fort Greene neighborhood.
The association started a "Dog Walkers Hall of Shame" campaign July 30, after his home security camera captured a dog walker, busy with her cell phone, walking away from the mess the dog had just deposited on the sidewalk in front of his house.
Weissman hopes a little public humiliation will be more effective than the seldom enforced "pooper scooper" law, and its $250 fines.
Since 2013, 63 "pooper scooper" violations have been issued in Brooklyn, DNAInfo reports. An officer must witness the incident to issue a summons, according to the Department of Sanitation.
Weissman, like any good superhero, seemed to take a great deal of pride in catching the scofflaw, at least on video. "We always wanted a photo or video or someone actually letting their dog shit and purposefully leaving it there. Here it is, thanks to Dropcam."
I'm all for owners taking responsibility for what their dogs drop, and all for laws enforcing that. And I'm fine with fines.
I'm just not so sure we have to view it all in terms of a "war," and I question whether all the high tech weapons being seized upon — like hidden cameras, and sending dog poop to laboratories to see if its DNA can be matched to a particular dog — are a bit of an over-reaction, better used on terrorists than people who don't pick up dog poop.
I have a problem with public "shaming," too — whether it's being used on deadbeat dads, the customers of prostitutes, or those who fail to pick up dog waste. It reminds me of those stocks and pillories we used to punish wrongdoers in colonial times. I'd like to think we've become a little more civilized since then. And I'd like to think we're smart enough to realize people who engage in shameful behavior often don't have a huge sense of shame in the first place.
Most of all I'm puzzled about how we let something with such a simple solution become so huge, and gobble up so much time, money and technology. How much is being wasted sending dog waste through the mail for analysis in laboratories? How many hours did Weissman spend watching video to pinpoint the culprit who pooped in front of his house?
Sometimes I think our species is prone to escalating anything that can possibly escalated.
Perhaps a psychologist could explain that to me.
In the meantime, can't we all just pick it up?

Fecal responsibility: Boulder looks at DNA testing to track down poop scofflaws
Boulder City Councilwoman Mary Young wants to know how feasible it would be to require DNA samples from dogs, and create a registry so that, through DNA analysis, poop left on city trails could be traced to dog owners.
She's not suggesting every dog in Boulder be tested (yet) — just the estimated 35,000 with so-called "green tags" that allow them to romp off-leash on some of the city's trails and greenspaces.
Young has asked that the issue be discussed at tonight's City Council meeting, the Boulder Daily Camera reports. (Yes, it happens to be an April Fools Day meeting, but nobody's joking here.)
I would hope Boulder looks not just at whether it can be done (it can), but at whether it should be — that city leaders consider, in addition to the price tag of such a venture, the ethics and implications and utter goofiness of it.
There's a lot of dog-related technology I don't like (click the banner at the top of this page for one example) and poop-detection technology is near the top of the list.
Not just because of its Orwellian overtones, not just because it's heavy-handed, dictatorial, silly, creepy, intrusive and expensive. It's also because technology, unleashed, has a habit of oozing beyond the boundaries of its originally intended purpose — DNA-testing of dog poop being just such a case — and spreading into ever scarier realms.
The day could still come when your tossed cigarette butt, un-recycled soda can or expectorated phlegm could be traced back to you, which, come to think of it, might be a better use of DNA technology than that being offered by the dog poop sleuths.
Declaring war on poop, and bringing out technology's big guns, is overkill. Especially when the real solution can be achieved by simply bending over and picking up what your dog leaves behind.
In case you haven't been following our posts on this issue, here's how it works:
Deciding unscooped dog poop is simply intolerable, homeowners associations, apartment complexes or government entities sign up with a company called PooPrints, which sends them the supplies needed for residents to take swabs from the cheeks of their dogs. Those are sent to Tennessee, and a doggie DNA registry is created.
After that, any pile of poop that is found can be gathered, packaged and sent to a lab in Tennessee, where it can be unpackaged and tested and, by comparing DNA markers, matched to an individual dog, assuming that dog's DNA is in the registry.
The company lets management know who the poopetrator was, and the owner is fined $100 or so — or, if a repeat offender, perhaps told they and/or their dog should move somewhere else. Thereby a community is made safe from scofflaws, as well as, say, a grandmother whose back might have been hurting too much one day to pick up every last dropping left by her Shih Tzu.
Here in my current home state, North Carolina, apartment complexes in Winston-Salem and Wilmington are among the growing number of property management companies and government entities turning to PooPrints.
Yes, dog poop can be hazardous to our health, and harmful to the environment.
So can the feces of all the non-domesticated animals we live among, but don't feel compelled to prosecute for pooping.
So, too, can the dumpage of corporate entities, like the thousands of tons of coal ash spilled into the Dan River by Duke Energy, coating 70 miles of the river with toxic sludge.
That's a little harder to pick up after, and, I'd suggest, at least as deserving of society's consternation and oversight and vigilance as dog poop — even if punishing the culprit won't make them change their ways. (Big companies, unlike the average dog owner, can hire lawyers to avoid fines, and, if unsuccessful, they just pass the costs along to their customers.)
Finding clean sources of energy — that's a use of technology I like. Using DNA to solve murders (and clear the wrongly convicted) seems a good use, too.
But gathering, packaging and mailing dog poop so technicians in Tennessee can comb through it and test it, by comparison, seems a silly use of our technological muscles.
In Colorado, Boulder officials say dog waste on public trails is one of the most common complaints the city receives, so it's not surprising that they'd turn to a company that claims to have the solution.
Eric Mayer, director of business development for BioPet Vet Lab in Knoxville, Tenn., said the company's PooPrint service is used by private property management companies in 45 states and in Canada. Franchises are popping up all over, like Burger Kings.
So far, the company doesn't have contracts with any municipalities, but officials have been in talks with a half dozen different local governments. He said he expects to sign the first municipal PooPrints contract with Ipswich, Mass., sometime this year.
Maybe, if poop detection continues to catch on, it would be good for the economy. Maybe, you too could have a fulfilling career as a dog poop laboratory technician.
But there are far better ways to spend our time and money, and far bigger problems more deserving of our rage. Between all the emotion, and all the technology, we seem to forget that we can simply …
Pick it up!

Researchers unearth evidence of America's earliest dog … and proof that it was eaten
A University of Maine graduate student says he has found a bone fragment from what he believes is the earliest domesticated dog ever found in the Americas — one that walked the continent 9,400 years ago.
And where he found it — ensconced in a dried-out sample of human waste — gives proof that eating dog was part of America's culture, at least before America was America.
Graduate student Samuel Belknap III came across the fragment while analyzing a sample of human waste unearthed in the 1970s. Carbon-dating placed the age of the bone at 9,400 years, and a DNA analysis confirmed it came from a dog — as opposed to a wolf, coyote or fox.
The Associated Press reports that the fragment — which was the dark orange color characteristic of bone that has passed through the digestive track — was found in Hinds Cave in southwest Texas.
The fragment provides the earliest evidence that dogs were eaten by humans in North America, and may have been bred as a food source, he said.
Belknap was studying the diet and nutrition of the people in the Lower Pecos region of Texas between 1,000 and 10,000 years ago when he came across the bone.
Belknap and other researchers from the University of Maine and the University of Oklahoma's molecular anthropology laboratories, where the DNA analysis was done, have written a paper on their findings, scheduled for publication in the American Journal of Physical Anthropology later this year.
The fragment is about six-tenths of an inch long and three- to four-tenths of an inch wide. Belknap said he and a fellow student identified the bone as a fragment from where the skull connects with the spine. He said it came from a dog that probably resembled the small short-haired dogs that were common among the Indians of the Great Plains.
Other archaeological findings have found evidence of domestic dogs in the U.S. as long as 8,000 years ago.
A 1980s study reported dog bones found at Danger Cave, Utah, were between 9,000 and 10,000 years old, but those dates were based on an analysis of the surrounding rock laters as opposed to carbon dating. In Idaho, researchers believed they'd found 11,000-year-old dog bones, but later tests showed them to be no more than 3,000 years old.
Worldwide, studies have found evidence of dogs going back 31,000 years from a site in Belgium, 26,000 years in the Czech Republic and 15,000 years in Siberia.
The earliest dogs in North America are believed to have come with the early settlers across the Bering land bridge from Asia.
Belknap said eating dogs was once common in Central America, and that some Great Plain Indian tribes ate dogs when food was scarce or for celebrations.
"It was definitely an accepted practice among many populations," he said.

Nova's "Dogs Decoded" airs tonight
The amazing and still evolving relationship between dogs and humans is the subject of "Dogs Decoded," a NOVA episode that airs tonight.
The program looks at how dogs – domesticated for longer than any other animal on the planet — have come to understand us in a way other animals cannot, how they can read our emotions, how that relationhip evolved and where it might lead.
"Dogs Decoded" investigates new discoveries in genetics that are illuminating the origin of dogs — with revealing implications for the evolution of human culture as well. It visits Siberia, where the mystery of dogs' domestication is being repeated in foxes. A 50-year-old breeding program is creating an entirely new kind of creature, a tame fox with some surprising similarities to man's best friend.
The episode reveals the science behind the bond between humans and their dogs, and it spurs new questions about what this could mean for our relationships with other animal species.
Among the questions the episode explores are why dogs bark, when their predecessors, wolves, didn't, and whether it's a behavior that evolved so they could communicate with humans; why a hormone that humans release at birth to bond mother to baby is also released when humans interact with dogs, bonding us not just emotionally, but biologically; what makes dogs able to understand social cues, like pointing, that other animals cannot; and what clues dog DNA might hold to understanding the genetic causes of certain diseases.

Where to next: In search of Chupacabra?
As we ponder where to go next on our road trip to nowhere, we're feeling drawn to Texas — where two stories this week have piqued our curiosity.
First is the tale, told yesterday, of the Methodist pastor who's calling for a stray dog hanging out behind his church to be shot, and the ire that has raised. Second are the two recent sightings — and subsequent terminations — of alleged Chupacabra, the legendary dog-like creatures who, according to myth, suck the blood of goats (which is what Chupacabra means in Spanish).
In the past week, two of the coyote-like creatures were spotted within 10 miles of each other, outside of Dallas, one of which was bagged by an animal control officer. The other was shot by a rancher. News reports seem to give no reason behind the shootings, other than the fact that the animals were "ugly."
"All I know is, it wasn't normal. It was ugly. Real ugly," said Frank Hackett, the animal control officer who killed one of the creatures.
Reports of Chupacabra sightings are fairly rare; there's one about about every year — including this one, where a law enforcement official followed and videotaped what he thought could have been one.
Of course, there are plenty of modern-day theories — ranging from them being pets left here by extraterrestrials to them being the result of government experiments gone awry. More often than not, though, they turn out to be coyotes with skin problems.
News reports say neither of the two slain creatures has been identified, though the DNA of at least one of them is being analyzed.
There is no documentation that the species or sub-species exists; instead the word "Chupacabra" has become a catch-all term for anything dog-like, but not immediately identifiable, kind of like Bigfoot is for anything hairy, human-like and not immediately identifiable.
This won't be the first alleged Chupacabra to have its DNA tested. In 2007, Texas State University biologist Mike Forstner performed a test on what turned out to be a coyote.
Another strong possibility, I'd suspect, is that some of the "beasts" that have been spotted are actually Xoloitzcuintle, a Mexican hairless dog breed.
In any event, we're headed east, and Dallas is on the way. If that's where we end up, we'll let you know what we find out.

Condo board dumps DNA poop proposal
The proposal to establish a DNA database of every dog who resides in Baltimore's Scarlett Place Condominiums — all in hopes of figuring out who's not picking up their dog's poop — appears to have been dumped.
At a meeting of the condo's board this week, the proposal was tabled and the decision was made to to pursue more "realistic and acceptable" alternatives.
While the meeting was closed to the public, a resident correspondent reports on the Baltimore Sun's Unleashed blog that the board chairman said that other alternatives to finding the culprit would receive further study.
Under the proposal, every dog in Scarlett Place would have had to provide a DNA sample. Any unpicked-up poop found at the building would then be sent to an out of state laboratory for comparison. The owner of the dog linked to the poop would then face fines.
Unleashed author Jill Rosen wrote that, after breaking the story, she was originally invited to attend the meeting, but uninvited when the story developed legs, appearing in publications and on websites across the globe, thereby, in my view, bringing the luxury condominium the embarassment it deserved.
Richard Hopp, a Scarlett Place resident, reported to Unleashed that the condo board, in a standing room only meeting, "tabled the proposal." Not a single resident spoke in favor of it, he said, and the board member who came up with the idea wasn't present.
"For what it is worth, my take on this is that the board members realized they had really 'stepped in it' with their doggy DNA proposal," Hopp reported, "and in order to save face, they tabled the matter, rather than just vote it down and move on…"

FREE 7th november. How to maximize the afterburn effect for Obama and Romney fans ;)
Hi there, I just found out today of this site.
I just released my first book a few days ago and it's a fitness related book, helping people who want to lose weight. It's for people who want to get the most out of their exercising. It is all focused on how to maximize the afterburn effect. The afterburn effect relates to the calories burned extra after your workout. By maximizing it you can get much more results in less time working out. Isn't that what we are all looking for? So you might be interested if you are living a busy life but still want to stay fit. You can find my book here: http://www.amazon.com/maximize-after...dp/B00A0KA2P8/ |

Williams Partners' CEO Present At 2012 Barclays Capital CEO Energy-Power Conference (Transcript)
But with the kind of demand growth that we are seeing is really based on big long-term capital investment and so its big power generation, its steel plant, its fertilizer plants and we are seeing a tremendous amount of interest and growth along our big interstate pipeline that we think is probably a couple years out from where they showing itself and once that capital and once all that capital investment that's very sustainable demand growth.
So on one side we've got supply growth, on the other side we're seeing a large increase in demand growth and in between that is going to come a lot of infrastructure. Not just in consuming all these great natural gas resources, but as well the natural gas liquids that are be coming off of this and as well petchem industry that's expanding rapidly as well and we think Williams is extremely well-positioned to provide a lot of that large scale infrastructure that take advantage of this relatively low priced resource that we have here in U.S.
Certainly, we have a lot to be thankful for here and in North America in that regard and I think to often we don't give enough credit to all the great independent producers that have gone out and found a way to continue to lower the cost and increase the productivity on the drilling operations and they really are presenting the U.S. today with the great value opportunity.
But it is going to take a lot of infrastructure and a lot of regulatory hurdles to get through get that infrastructure build out. We think Williams is good in both of spaces and we are very excited about the future as result of that.
This slide just then looks at are the industry, first, looking at the industry fundamentals that I just spoke about, but and I don't think, I don't hear much argument to that story that that the industry fundamentals are great and we are well-positioned.

Cons:It is a see through cloth with low see through effect, but attention on powerfull picture cameras with flash, their flash makes this shirt a real see through one. Shown picture has been taken with a flash.
OtherThoughts:Because this shirt offers so much combinations, my wife ordered a second one, to have a reserve in case of an accident with one of the shirts.
Bottomline:This is a perfect shirt for ladies who know how to use it. Perfect fit, even on an 165cm Person.
