lashawn87(z4 IA)September 26, 2005
My husband and I just bought an acreage about a year ago and other than a bunch of trees, there is no landscaping. I would love to get into ornamental grasses, but I'm new to this and don't know where to start.
I am looking for grasses that grow well in Zone 4. I don't have any grasses to trade, but I do have some bulbs if anyone is interested.

The tendency to usurp the powers and authority of the states through open and clandestine ways by the Centre was on rise at a scale never seen before, Punjab Chief Minister Parkash Singh on Friday said.
"There was a wide consensus, cutting across party lines that the state governments need to be given much greater operational freedom in choosing and financing development priorities of their people," said Mr. Badal.
He called for setting up of "genuinely federal structure" in the country with more financial and political powers to the states.
Mr. Badal was addressing 26th meeting of Northern Zonal Council in Chandigarh.
"The tendency of the Centre has been to usurp, through open and clandestine ways, the powers and authority of the states already ensured by the Constitution.
"This tendency was on the rise at a scale never seen before," he said.
In certain cases, this violation of the Constitution by the Centre has been nothing short of "flagrant", with the Centre wilfully legislating on issues that fall in the States purview, he said.
The Chief Minister pointed out the most dangerous exhibition of this tendency was seen in how the Centre had been quietly shifting subjects from the State's List to the Concurrent List and from the Concurrent to the Union List.
"Such violations of the federal principle would not only further weaken the states but would also create unnecessary complications, hampering smooth relations between the Centre and the states," he said.
Pleading for rewriting the formula for devolution of Central funds, the Chief Minister said the states needed more funds for their primary developmental needs.
He said, "States should be given at least 50 per cent share in taxes collected from them. The allocation of funds to the states should in fact be made growth dependent, so as to encourage the states and subjects to perform better."
The chief minister appealed to Centre for strengthening federalism by increasing devolution of Central funds to states from the present 32 to 50 per cent, along with change in the devolution criteria so that it was not detrimental to the interests of the relatively more developed states.
Emphasising the need for restructuring the Inter State Council, Mr. Badal said that it was the need of the hour, in the true spirit of federalism, for strengthening the states.
He suggested that the Secretariat of the Inter-State Council should be attached to the Secretariat of the Rajya Sabha rather than being a department of Government of India (GoI).
All initiatives on the concurrent list may first be discussed in the Inter-State Council and approved by 2/3rd majority before given any legislative shape.
In case, the Inter-State Council was restructured into a constitutional and strong body, as suggested, the existence and relevance of the Zonal Councils could be also reviewed by the Inter-State Council and brought into its fold by amending the States Reorganisation Act, 1956.
Dwelling on the huge financial and economic loss suffered by the state due to flight of Industry from Punjab in wake of fiscal industrial concessions granted to Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand by the Centre, Badal said they were not against granting these concessions to other states, but at the same time Punjab must be duly compensated by setting up SEZ for agro processing industry in the state.
This initiative would not only boost agriculture economy but would also provide a level playing field.
Mr. Badal underscored the need for channelisation of the remaining portion of 17.55 km of Ghaggar river from Makorar Sahib to Karail out of total stretch of 40 km which had been put on hold due apprehensions expressed by Haryana that it might cause adverse effect on the state.
The Chief Minister also solicited Centre's intervention to direct the Himachal Pradesh Government for immediately taking necessary corrective measures to prevent the discharge of industrial effluents into river Satluj by the industries, towns located in different parts of the state.
Seeking immediate intervention of the Centre to curb the Trans-Border Smuggling in Punjab, Mr. Badal said state was facing a drug menace because of its close proximity to international narcotics route covering Pakistan, Afghanistan and Iran.
He pointed out that as the border was manned by the Central security forces therefore it was obligatory on the part of Centre to keep a strict vigil on the border to check this menace.
Seeking strict maintenance of 60:40 ratio in the allocation of posts between Punjab and Haryana, Mr. Badal urged the Centre to direct the Chandigarh administration not to create unnecessary problems on an extremely emotive issue.

I wanted to write to say how much I appreciate shopping at workingperson.com. Despite the holidays Stephanie was pleasant, very helpful, and personally ran to the storage area to verify that my order was on hand. She even expedited delivery to ensure delivery by Christmas. The prices were lower than any other sites I had encountered and they had an extensive selection. And the best part is that my husband LOVES all his gear! These days, marginal or poor customer service is the norm, but this experience far exceeded my expectations in every aspect of the transaction. I cannot say enough good things about your representatives and the company, and will definitely be a repeat customer. All the best in 2007! Bravo!!!"

Simcox's Child-Molestation Trial Only Latest Instance of Border-Watcher Criminality
Editor's Note: Officials said today that the start of the trial of Chris Simcox had been delayed until Monday, March 23.
One of the great ironies of the now-moribund vigilante border-watch movement is that its members were obsessed with the lawlessness of the immigrant border crossers they sought to apprehend — but themselves often had criminal backgrounds or, worse yet, hid behind their activism to pursue criminal acts.
Exhibit A: Chris Simcox.
Simcox was the co-founder of the Minuteman Project, the April 2005 gathering on the Arizona border of citizen border watchers south of the Tombstone area, where Simcox lived at the time. Originally founded as a border militia, Simcox and his Minutemen became the epitome of the nativist border-watch movement, embodied by a national fund-raising campaign that he led to build a fence on a section of the border as a demonstration project that mostly ended up lining the pockets of his Beltway-based handlers. The movement, which peaked with 319 nativist extremist groups in 2010, had faded to just 19 groups by late last year.
Simcox was a volatile personality with a history of destroyed relationships, and eventually his Minuteman Civil Defense Corps (MCDC) shut down amid turmoil within its ranks over finances and egos, as well as the decline of its reputation as the border-watch movement became increasingly associated with criminality.
Simcox himself provided the latest evidence of that association when he was arrested in July 2013 and charged with three counts of child molestation — later reduced to two — after his then-6-year-old daughter and one of her friends, age 5, accused him of sexually assaulting them. If convicted of the felony charges, Simcox could face life in prison.
Simcox goes on trial this week in Maricopa County Superior Court in Phoenix on the charges. (Hatewatch will provide coverage of the trial.) He plans to act as his own attorney in the trial, although he will be required to work through his court-appointed associate attorneys when it comes to cross-examining his two alleged victims.
Simcox's is hardly the only such case. Seen retrospectively, the border-watch movement was remarkable for the number of its leaders and participants whose careers ended in criminal acts.
Even before Simcox came along with his Minuteman concept, one of the early border-militia organizers who preceded him also had a number of brushes with the law. Casey Nethercott, another Arizona resident, was involved in a border-watch operation called Ranch Rescue at the turn of the century, and he too had a number of criminal legal problems.
Nethercott — who had done prison time in California for assault in the 1990s — and some of his fellow Ranch Rescue members in 2003 assaulted two Salvadoran migrants who had crossed the border on foot and wound up on a ranch where the nativist border watchers operated. The migrants were held at gunpoint, and one of them was pistol-whipped and attacked by a Rottweiler. With the assistance of the SPLC, the migrants sued their attackers and won a million-dollar civil judgment against Ranch Rescue, including $500,000 against Nethercott, who also faced criminal assault charges in the case but eventually had them dismissed.
Nethercott eventually left Ranch Rescue and then began organizing his own border watches at a property he purchased in Arizona. Eventually he had a tense standoff with Border Patrol agents at that property; when FBI agents tried to arrest him for his role in that incident two weeks later, they wound up shooting the white supremacist who was accompanying him at the time.
Indeed, while the phrase "rule of law" even today is often bandied about by the remaining bands of vigilante nativists, the record demonstrates that this was a peculiarly flexible concept for many of the Minutemen and their associates.
Shawna Forde, for example, incorporated the phrase into the logo for her offshoot border-watch operation, Minuteman American Defense. Forde's operation was widely promoted at the website of Simcox's Minuteman Project co-founder, Jim Gilchrist; previously, she had been deeply involved in Simcox's MCDC operations in Washington state.
Then, in June 2009, Forde was arrested and charged with masterminding the horrific murders of a 9-year-old girl and her father in the small Arizona border town of Arivaca, along with a white-supremacist cohort named Jason Eugene Bush and a local man, Albert Gaxiola, as part of her plan to create a border-militia compound. All three were convicted, and Forde and Bush wound up on Arizona's Death Row.
After the arrests of Forde, Bush and Gaxiola, Forde's former associates in the Minuteman movement fled from their onetime protégé. National leaders of the Minuteman movement — particularly Simcox and Gilchrist — hastily tried to put distance between themselves and Forde and her group. To this day, Gilchrist tries to claim that he had little to do with her.
But while Forde's conviction severely damaged the border-watch movement — as one ex-MCDC leader put it, "A lot of people felt, well, you're a Minuteman, you're a killer" — that was not the end of it.
In April 2012, one of Forde's associates in the desert, a Tucson man named Todd Hezlitt, was arrested and charged with two counts of sexual conduct with a minor for an affair he had initiated with a 15-year-old girl from a local high school where he was an assistant wrestling coach. Two months later, he fled with the girl to Mexico, and he briefly became an international fugitive.
A few weeks after that, the girl turned herself in to the American consulate in Mazatlan. Hezlitt was caught a short time later and extradited. He eventually wound up agreeing to plead guilty to the sexual conduct charges in exchange for not being charged with kidnapping, and was sentenced to six years in prison.
Another violent incident from a former border watcher erupted in Arizona in May 2012 when Jason Todd "J.T." Ready — a longtime leader of the state's neo-Nazi National Socialist Movement, and an organizer of independent NSM border watches in Arizona — went on a shooting rampage at the home of his girlfriend.
Before committing suicide, Ready shot and killed his girlfriend, Lisa Lynn Mederos, 47; her daughter, Amber Nieve Mederos, 23; the daughter's boyfriend, Jim Franklin Hiott, and Amber's 15-month-old baby girl, Lilly Lynn Mederos. Investigators later found chemicals and military-grade munitions that apparently belonged to Ready at the residence.
As Tim Steller at the Arizona Daily Star observed: "Undoubtedly, there have been border-militia members in Arizona who have carried out citizen patrols without harboring racist motives or having criminal tendencies. The problem for the movement … is that people with these motives or tendencies have cropped up repeatedly among citizen border-watchers."
Judge Clears Way for Simcox To Represent Self in Child-Molestation Case
A judge this week granted Chris Simcox, the former nativist extremist known sarcastically among those on the border as the "Little Prince" because of his arrogant bearing, the right to represent himself in his forthcoming trial in Phoenix for child molestation — charges that could put him away for life.
Simcox's trial was rescheduled on Monday for March 16 by Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Jose Padilla, who stipulated several rules for Simcox's plans to conduct a self-represented (pro se) defense on three counts of child molestation and two counts of sexual conduct with a minor.
All this means that Simcox likely will be personally cross-examining his two young victims, who were ages 6 and 5 in 2013 at the time of their alleged abuse. According to the papers filed by prosecutors, Simcox "is alleged to have digitally penetrated his biological daughter's [vagina] on two occasions, penetrated her vagina with an object on [one] occasion and to have fondled the genitals of his daughter's friend on two occasions.
Jerry Cobb, a spokesman for the Maricopa County Attorney's Office, told Hatewatch that victim advocates with backgrounds in dealing with sexual abuse cases involving children had been assigned to the two young girls.
But cases in which the victims of a sexual assault are required to face their accused attackers on the witness stand are relatively rare. Even rarer, according to legal experts consulted by Hatewatch, are pro-se cases involving child sex assault victims. In fact, allowing accused perpetrators of a sexual assault to directly cross-examine their alleged victims remains a controversial component of American jurisprudence. The practice recently came under intense scrutiny when a rape victim in Seattle, distraught with the prospect of having to face the man she said attacked her when she was a child, threatened suicide at the courthouse, after he won the right to represent himself.
"Judges can be very creative about this, but the fundamental constitutional right of somebody to represent themselves in trial is pretty strong," said Patty Eakes, a former prosecutor now with the Seattle firm Calfo Harrigan Leyh & Eakes. "So it's always a tricky position for a judge when someone decides they want to go pro se, and when they go pro se, then technically he has the right to examine the person."
This often throws the courts into a balancing act between the rights of the victims and the rights of the accused. In any event, Eakes observed, Simcox was dooming his chances in court, as well as closing off at least one avenue of appeal (inadequate representation), by asking the court to represent himself.
"He may have delusions of grandeur about what a great job he's going to do, but he's going to have two strikes against him with that jury before he stands up, just because he chose to do this, right?" Eakes said.
Simcox had initially been offered a plea bargain that would have required him to serve 10 years in prison, but he refused and insisted on taking the case to trial. According to a report by Stephen Lemons of the Phoenix New Times, Simcox engaged in a tense back-and-forth with Judge Padilla during the hearing to determine if Simcox would represent himself.
"In a sense, I kind of welcome the trial," Simcox said at the time. "I would relish the opportunity for the truth to come out."
The developments are the latest in a long and twisted road to trail for Simcox, who previously had suggested he would present a "grand conspiracy" defense that he had been targeted for prosecution, and the evidence against him invented, because of his prominent role as a leader and co-founder of the nativist extremism group called the Minutemen.
At the height of the border movement, Simcox was president of the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps, a nationwide, anti-immigration vigilante organization with armed "citizen border patrols" in Arizona, California, New Mexico and Texas, along with a smattering of states on the Canadian border where Minutemen had deployed to protect America from northern invaders. Never modest, the cigar-chomping Simcox was a hyper and relentless self-aggrandizer who came across with the smug egotism that quickly earned him the nickname "The Little Prince."
But even then, there were allegations of sexual abuse.
As the SPLC reported in 2005, Simcox was accused by his first wife of molesting another daughter when she was a teenager, though no complaint was ever made to police. His second wife also sought custody of their teenage son because, she said, Simcox had become violent and unpredictable. His third wife — the mother of his current accuser — took out a restraining order against Simcox in 2010 when she divorced him.
When Hatewatch contacted Simcox then, he refused to answer four direct questions about the allegations.
"I would never answer those questions to you. You can't ask those questions," he said. "You're on a witch hunt and you're trying to discredit our movement, which is to secure the borders. … My personal life has nothing to do with anything that goes on here."
Simcox Seeks to Act As His Own Attorney in Child-Molestation Trial
Onetime Minuteman leader Chris Simcox has filed papers seeking to act as his own attorney in his upcoming trial in Phoenix on child-molestation charges, raising the prospect that he could wind up cross-examining his own alleged young victims on the stand.
Simcox was arrested in July 2013 and accused of molesting his daughter and her friend at his home on two occasions when the girls were ages 6 and 5, respectively. Both are now in their preteens. The charges are all felonies, and if convicted, Simcox could spend the rest of his life in prison.
Invoking the 1975 Supreme Court ruling in Faretta v. California, Simcox on Feb. 12 filed a request with Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Jose Padilla saying that, "after conferring with his assigned attorneys in this matter," he "invokes his right to represent himself for all further proceedings, including the jury trial set in this matter for March 2, 2015."
Simcox has been in prison since his arrest, and the trial has been delayed multiple times, largely at Simcox's request, as he has gone through multiple defense attorneys in the case.
Simcox is known nationally for his role as one of the two founders of the Minuteman movement, an array of armed groups that patrolled the southern border looking to apprehend migrants illegally crossing into the United States. Among other things, he became known for ridiculous statements like his claim to have seen Chinese Army soldiers massing at the American border.
Prosecutors had requested another delay in the trial earlier this month, explaining that the lead prosecutor in the case was currently in court with another case. However, Judge Padilla denied that request, so the trial is currently scheduled to begin as scheduled on March 2. However, a pretrial conference on Monday, at which Simcox and Judge Padilla are expected to establish ground rules in his attempt to represent himself, could change that schedule yet again.
According to the documents filed by prosecutors in the case, Simcox "is alleged to have digitally penetrated his biological daughter's [vagina] on two occasions, penetrated her vagina with an object on [one] occasion and to have fondled the genitals of his daughter's friend on two occasions." He has also been charged with providing harmful materials to a minor.
Prosecutors at one time had offered Simcox a generous plea deal that would have given him a 10-year sentence. However, according to Stephen Lemons of the Phoenix New Times, the spokesman for the Maricopa County Attorney's Office said the offer had been taken off the table.
Earlier filings made by Simcox's attorneys suggested that he might attempt a defense based on claims that he was targeted for prosecution because of his high political and media profile. He also appeared to be claiming that the charges against him were based on evidence from a daughter who was subject to "parental alienation" because of a "contentious divorce." The judge hearing the case at the time warned Simcox that he could not plan an attempting a "grand conspiracy" defense.
As the SPLC reported in 2005, Simcox was accused by his first wife of molesting another daughter when she was a teenager, though no complaint was ever made to police. His second wife also sought custody of their teenage son because, she said, Simcox had become violent and unpredictable. His third wife — the mother of his current accuser — took out a restraining order against Simcox in 2010 when she divorced him.
As Extremist 'Constitutional Sheriffs' Meet With Senators, Their Supporters Call for Obama's Lynching
In one of the spacious meeting rooms of the Russell Senate Building in Washington, D.C., last month, three conservative members of Congress had an unusual meeting with a small group of law-enforcement officers who ascribe to far-right "constitutionalist" theories.
U.S. Sens. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., and David Vitter, R-La., and Rep. Martha Blackburn, R-Tenn., all met with former Arizona Sheriff Richard Mack, the far-right former lawman from Graham County, Ariz., who now leads the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association (CSPOA), a group of "constitutionalist" sheriffs who see themselves the last line of defense against those who would seek to infringe on the U.S. Constitution.
Originally billed in the National Review as a "massive gathering" of sheriffs from around the nation to protest immigration, the event was organized by two sheriffs who are active leaders in former Mack's CSPOA and drew a much smaller crowd. And while CSPOA promoted the event and reported on it afterward, Mack told Hatewatch that it was not the chief organizer.
"I was invited to attend and we provided a little hors d'oeuvres," he told Hatewatch. Still, he said, "I was really proud of these sheriffs for trying to take care of something on their own."
The focus of the event was to stand in protest of President Obama's executive action, taken after years of congressional inaction, to offer temporary legal status to undocumented immigrants who have been in the country for at least five years and whose children were born here and are U.S. citizens, provided they pass a background check and pay taxes. But it wasn't long before a group of extremists supporting Mack made itself known.
Just down the Capitol Mall that same day, a small group of protesters supporting the sheriffs gathered at the White House and began shouting slogans and demanding the removal of President Obama. Some in the crowd demanded the president be lynched–"Hang the lying Muslim traitor!" one of them shouted.
The same group of protesters then proceeded to the Senate building where the sheriffs were meeting, but were not permitted inside and instead lingered in the foyer. When the meeting ended, the demonstrators lustily greeted the emerging law enforcement officers and Congress members, some of them shaking hands and hugging the participants.
Mack told Hatewatch that he was unsure who organized the supporting protest. But he stressed, "That was not us."
Obama's executive action, taken after years of congressional inaction, offers temporary legal status to undocumented immigrants who have been in the country for at least five years and whose children were born here and are U.S. citizens, provided they pass a background check and pay taxes.
The rhetoric used by the various officials during the press conference that followed was not nearly as incendiary, but it also reflected some of the paranoia inherent in the "constitutionalist" movement–even though some of it was coming from U.S. senators.
Obama's executive action "is taking jobs and benefits directly from struggling American lawful immigrants and our native-born," Sessions said. "A government must serve its own citizens."
The sheriffs were largely on the same page. "When it comes to immigration, there is no law because there are no consequences, and that is something we in law enforcement have to deal with and have to fight," Paul Babeu, sheriff of Arizona's Pinal County, said. "Instead of putting illegals first and their rights, what about putting Americans and our rights and our security once, first?"
But what measure and reserve was on display inside the Senate Building was not apparent outside the White House.
That rally organized by an antigovernment group calling itself Operation American Freedom," which had issued an "arrest warrant" to government officials in Washington earlier this year–was intended to support the sheriffs. An earlier video by Blaine Cooper, a "Patriot" who help organized a livestream of the event, announced that "we are gonna be at the White House at 10 o'clock tomorrow. The sheriffs are gonna be here doing their rally, and Operation American Freedom, or O.A.F., are gonna be there as well."
Cooper's livestream video also provided an unusual inside look at the protest.
There appear to have only been a couple dozen gathered to protest. Most of the noise at the demonstration was created by one man, wearing a tricorn hat and shouting into a bullhorn. One protester in particular—a bearded man toting an American flag—seemed especially intent on seeing Obama hung.
"Hang the lying Kenyan traitor terrorist piece of shit," he shouted at one point. "He's a traitor! Hang him!" The same man kept shouting variations of this throughout the protest.
When a large wood chipper drove past the scene, one of the protesters remarked: "Hey, a wood chipper! That gives me an idea" – suggesting he would like to run the president through the machine. When the press conference had finished, the participants were swarmed by the sheriffs' supporters in the foyer, who cheered loudly as they exited and swarmed Sessions to express their admiration.
"We love you, God bless you," one said. "Thank you for all your work in the Senate, and thank you for all of this – fighting Obama tooth and nail."
In the video, Mack could be seen embracing a man with the tricorn hat as he departed. However, he could not tell Hatewatch afterwards anything about the man or the group: "I didn't know if they were pro or con," he said via e-mail.
Afterward, Mack was less than optimistic about the outcome of the event.
"My overall feeling was that Washington D.C. wasn't going to do anything to enforce the law or fix the problem," he said. "I don't believe the leadership will allow the problem to be fixed. … And it's really a slap at the black community that so many millions are going to be competing with low income minority groups for jobs. I don't think there is any way around that. The president has once again shown that he'll do anything he wants, whether its lawless or not, no matter who it hurts."
FAIR Advisory Board Member Bashes Muslims … Again
The turn of the year is traditionally the time where people pledge to give up old bad habits. Clearly Frosty Wooldridge, a rabid nativist extremist, didn't get the message.
In his first column of 2015, published on the right-wing website News with Views, Wooldridge continued his campaign to denigrate Muslims, calling for a ban on all Muslim immigration to the U.S. and warning that no Western country will "survive [Muslim] birthrates or culture."
"Islam grows in America. This beast roams America in places like Philadelphia where Muslim women walk Market Street where Ben Franklin walked," Wooldridge wrote. "At some point, we must shut down all Muslim immigration before we lose control of our own country. They prove relentless, uncompromising and unyielding. No such thing as a 'moderate Muslim!'"
The column is the third installment in a series titled, "Impregnating America With Muslims: Onslaught on our Ethos, Language and Culture." It also quoted heavily from an October 2014 sermon delivered by Rabbi Shalom Lewis of Congregation Etz Chaim, where Lewis called for a "holy crusade" against Muslim extremists.
Wooldridge has a long history of anti-Muslim vitriol, and he is far from an isolated figure within the broader anti-immigrant movement. He is an advisory board member with the hate group Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR), founded by white nationalist John Tanton, the architect of the modern-day anti-immigrant movement. Wooldridge also worked as a "senior writing fellow" for the anti-immigrant group Californians for Population Stabilization (CAPS). Both FAIR and CAPS received funding from the Pioneer Fund, a foundation dedicated to funding the studies of race and intelligence, as well as eugenics, the "science" of breeding superior human beings that was discredited by various Nazi atrocities.
Incidentally, the idea of Muslim immigration diluting western culture has long been a nativist fascination. As early as 2000, for example, FAIR attacked Sen. Spencer Abraham (R-Mich.), an Arab-American, for supporting more high-tech visas for immigrants. In radio and TV ads, FAIR claimed Abraham's proposal could "make it easier for [Arab] terrorists like Osama bin Laden to export their way of terror to any street in America."
A decade later, in the Fall 2010, Tanton's anti-immigrant journal The Social Contract (TSC) called for a ban on all Muslim immigration to the U.S. Tanton's right hand man, K.C. McAlpin, attempted to justify the call for a ban, saying "Congress has used that power in the past to ban the immigration of Communist Party and National Socialist (Nazi) party members who were deemed to be threats to our national security. This case is no different."
But in reality, for Wooldridge and McAlpin, it is completely different.
Judge Tells Simcox He Can't Rely on 'Grand Conspiracy' Defense in Molestation Trial
Chris Simcox, the erstwhile border vigilante Minuteman movement leader, has been sitting in the Maricopa County Jail for over a year as he awaits trial on two counts of child molestation, one involving his own preteen daughter. But, judging from a recent court appearance, he is confident that he will win his freedom.
How? Apparently Simcox has some secret evidence.
According to a report from Stephen Lemons at Phoenix New Times, Simcox indicated during a recent court hearing on a possible plea agreement that there is previously unknown reasons for his arrest.
Documents filed by Simcox's attorneys suggest he will attempt a defense based on claims that he was targeted for prosecution because of his high political profile, and that the charges against him are built on evidence from two daughters who were subject to "parental alienation" because of a "contentious divorce."
However, Judge Joseph Welty of Maricopa County Superior Court apparently was not buying. Saying that Simcox was suggesting "some grand conspiracy at play," he reminded Simcox, 53, that the evidence against him also involved victims who were not his daughters, and that the charges he faced were not political crimes.
The purpose of the hearing last week was to review the plea bargain that prosecutors had offered to Simcox earlier this year that would limit his prison time to seven years in exchange for a guilty plea. However, Simcox adamantly continued to refuse the deal, saying he intended to prove his innocence in court.
Simcox's refusal ensures that the two victims in the case—one of them his now-teenage daughter, the second being a friend of hers who Simcox was supposed to be babysitting at the time—will be required to testify on the stand. The trial is scheduled to begin Dec. 17, but Simcox's decision on the plea bargain probably means it will be pushed forward to January.
According to Lemons, a previous judge in the case ensured that so-called "propensity evidence"—involving previous incidents that suggest the defendant's crime is part of a behavior pattern—would also be admitted.
As the SPLC reported in 2005, Simcox was accused by his first wife of molesting another daughter when she was a teenager, though no complaint was ever made to police. His second wife also sought custody of their teenage son because, she said, Simcox had become violent and unpredictable. His third wife—the mother of his current accuser—took out a restraining order against Simcox in 2010 when she divorced him.
If convicted, Simcox could face up to life in prison.
Border Militiaman Claims Explosive Found In Hotel Room Was Legal
Kevin "K.C." Massey III contacted Hatewatch this weekend to explain that the explosive found among his belongings when he was arrested at the "Camp LoneStar" hotel room on federal weapons charges, thought to be ammonium nitrate, was in fact a legal form of explosive.
Massey said in an email that the explosive, which was found inside an ammo can and listed in the inventory filed by the Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms agents after his arrest Oct. 20 in Brownsville, Texas, was in fact a completely legal explosive called "Tannerite."
Unlike the version of the explosive used by domestic terrorist Timothy McVeigh in his bomb-truck attack on the Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City in April 1995, Tannerite is a legal form that uses an aluminum powder, instead of diesel oil, as the fuel that creates an explosion. It requires mixing in order to become an explosive, and in its unmixed form, it is legal to transport it anywhere. However, when mixed, it becomes an explosive and is subject to strict regulation.
After Hatewatch's original post noted that the ingredients for a bomb were found in his belongings, Massey wrote and explained:
The "ammonium nitrate" and "fuel" is Tannerite a legal product sold in almost every sporting goods store in the USA. It was not mixed and is COMPLETELY legal in all 50 states. Second, the Tannerite was NOT in my/Camp Lonestars [sic] room, it was in my truck in an ammo can to keep it dry and to stop from someone having access to "misuse" it.
Massey went on to explain that Tannerite is a favorite target device for people practicing with long-range weapons, since it lets a shooter know from a distance if he or she has hit their target.
It is for long range target shooting which we did not have at Camp. I had it since I went to the border four months ago, and never had a place or reason to use it for its intended purpose.
He then went on to explain that his arrest for weapons possession stems from a felony committed in 1988.
I am no terrorist and my felony conviction was when I was 22 years old. I am now 48. Are you the same man at your age as you were at 22? I have proven by my actions and all who know me, KNOW I am not a racist. Nor am I a member of any militia OR hate group. I love all Americans no matter their color or creed.
Ask the people who really know me and you will see I am telling you the truth. My grandson is half black, and I have a lot of Hispanics in my family. I have NEVER been in any HATE group. I don't like racists of ANY color.
Massey is currently awaiting trial on two counts of being a felon in possession of weapon.
Oin Oakstar, 43, Key Figure in Shawna Forde Trial, Found Dead in Homeless Encampment
The death of Oin Oakstar at the age of 43 was probably not a surprise to anyone familiar with the Arizona man's drug-and-alcohol-fueled lifestyle.
What surprises many, however, is where he died: In a homeless encampment under a freeway overpass in Everett, Wash., more than a thousand miles from Arivaca, his longtime home near the border.
Police found Oakstar's body on Wednesday in a tent near an area frequented by homeless people, on railroad property near Interstate 5. There were no obvious signs of how he died, though natural causes are suspected, and police say they are awaiting word on an autopsy, the Everett Herald reported.
Border Militiamen Detaining Immigrants, Sowing Fear Among Camp's Neighbors
Border militiaman K.C. Massey III was slightly apologetic about detaining three border-crossing immigrants during one of his outfit's vigilante
patrols awhile back—handcuffing the men behind their backs with zip ties—along the Rio Grande in southern Texas.
"Sorry we had to 'Detain' them," Massey, one of the leaders of the militiamen that began gathering several weeks ago in Texas, wrote in a Facebook comment after video of the detentions was posted online. "[B]ut they were wore out and just fell down and gave up while the other 7-8 ran like gazelles!"
As the post explained, the militiamen detained the people—described as Honduran, Guatemalan, and Mexican—after they encountered a group of about 11 border crossers, most of whom took off through the brush. The three men they kept were "ziptied, debriefed, and given water," and U.S. Border Patrol officers eventually arrived and took them away.
"WE DO NOT AIM TO DETAIN, we would much rather send them back into the river into Mexico and dissuade them and the cartel from crossing on the property we patrol," the post explained. "All encounters were conducted in a humanitarian, professional fashion. Stay vigilant. Thank you for your support."
But behind the guise of humanitarian treatment was a not-so-subtle smirking contempt. "One of the guys pissed himself!" remarked Massey. Another chimed in, "Dude pissed himself bad."
Welcome to Camp LoneStar, a border militia outpost on the U.S.-Mexico border in Texas where antigovernment "Patriots," heavily armed and
hunting for immigrants, have seemingly taken the law into their own hands in recent weeks and made residents near their operation increasingly fearful and resentful.
Antigovernment Protest to 'Shut Down All Ports' Fizzles, Leaving Law Enforcement Waiting
The most recent attempt to protest federal immigration policies by shutting down the nation's ports of entry along the Mexico border has, to no one's great surprise, turned out to be another fizzle.
Calling itself a coalition of antigovernment "Patriot" groups angry about immigration enforcement, "Shut Down All Ports of Entry" had attempted to organize a protest Saturday morning at a number of the United States' border crossings wherein participants would drive up to the port, turn off their trucks and cars, and walk away from them.
But on Friday, the organization took down its Facebook page and removed all content from its website except for a notice announcing that the protest had been cancelled out of fears of retaliation by the drug cartels.
"There has been an unsubstantiated threat of mass violence to attendees, along with very suspicious activity on the Facebook site," wrote organizer Satsyi Barth. "These two items are more than enough for me to immediately stop any protest that was going to occur. Your lives, and the lives of our law enforcement, are more important than any protest."

Good question. I don't want to go 1st, but if I have time this weekend I might be able to record something for looping and jamming over, just to break the ice.
I'd be interested but it'd have to be quick as I'm moving house soon so all my gear will be packed up.
What style of music are you guys looking to jam over? I have a couple of standard minor blues BT's I made that are on my Youtube channel... Whatever floats your boat... I'd like to hear what JustRob comes up with.. Always prefer jamming over something fresh.

So I fooled around with an app called Ohm Studio last night. Theoretically, you can collaborate in real time on recording projects. My experience differed. For some reason my guitar input device was silent through mu plugins, although it worked without the plugins, or with the plugins outside of Ohm Studio. Latency was crippling. What I did manage to do was export my audio tracks from Logic to Ohm Studio, so if you try it, I'm JustRob there also.
Sorry been out of the loop! Past few weeks have been rough, but I'll work on getting a google group together so we can send stems to one another!

I saved seed last Fall, labeled it "Red Zinnia", planted them this late Spring. Here's the results. Unusual, but pretty. The photos are a bit blurry.

Terms were not disclosed in the acquisition of Prudential Rubloff Properties, which has 860 employees.
Twin Cities-based HomeServices of America Inc. has acquired Prudential Rubloff Properties, a leading brokerage in Chicago.
"It's a place we've wanted to be," Ron Peltier, HomeServices' CEO, said Tuesday. "This is going to be a game-changer for this marketplace."
HomeServices isn't new to the Windy City. It acquired Koenig & Strey Real Living Real Estate in September 2009 and will combine the companies to create what is expected to be the No. 2 brokerage in the Chicago area. By next spring, the companies will become the Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices KoenigRubloff Realty Group.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed, and it includes subsidiaries Rubloff Insurance and Sterling Title Services. Peltier said the current leadership team will remain in place, with Nancy Nagy serving as chief executive of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices KoenigRubloff Realty Group.
"Combining Prudential Rubloff with Koenig & Strey represents a new chapter in the history of our great companies," said Nagy, currently president and CEO of Koenig & Strey Real Living.
Steve Murray, editor and partner at REAL Trends and Murray Consulting, called it a "very significant" deal for HomeServices because the combined companies will have near-dominance in the market. He also said the deal is important for HomeServices because it gains Prudential's experienced management team.
"They are highly regarded leaders and operators," Murray said.
Prudential Rubloff has more than 860 employees in the Chicago area, and a branch office in New Buffalo, Mich., that serves northwest Indiana and southwest Michigan. Last year, the company had nearly $2.2 billion in sales volume. Koenig & Strey Real Living has more than 730 agents and staff, and 2012 sales of nearly $2 billion.
Minneapolis-based HomeServices is an affiliate of Berkshire Hathaway, which has helped fund Peltier's acquisition of several brokerages this year. His strategy is to acquire firms with deep ties to their communities and strong brand recognition in new and existing markets.
In August, Peltier added Philadelphia-based Prudential Fox & Roach Realtors, the nation's fifth-largest stand-alone brokerage, to its portfolio. And in March, HomeServices bought Prudential Georgia Realty, the largest real estate brokerage in Atlanta.
Including the most recent Chicago acquisition, HomeServices of America will have nearly 22,000 agents and staff in 25 states and more than $55 billion in sales.

Miranda Otto says that she is getting used to the whole Hollywood press tour. Still a little bewildered, the beautiful Australian actress is one of the new cast members to join the epic Lord of the Rings trilogy. Dressed in black and sitting in a New York hotel room, Otto is fully aware that her participation in one of the year's biggest films could end up having an impact on her career, about which the 35-year old Aussie beauty has mixed feelings
"The one thing that holds me in good stead, is that I have worked for a long time, including a lot of independent work and a lot of things that I'm really proud of, so I'm not some complete newcomer who is completely naïve about the whole business," says Otto. Going on to insist that she has "experience and knowledge to back it up" she says that her experience changes the way she approaches a mammoth project such as Lord of the Rings. "I think if you'd never done anything like this before or are an acting novice, then it would be pretty hard because no other jobs are going to be like this one, and as I'm discovering more and more, people will try and get out of you what they want for their ends at that time." Otto agrees that she "has to wise up a fair bit about that" but is not seeking some kind of Hollywood stardom on the back of the Rings juggernaut. Rather, the actress, who made her film debut at age 19, would prefer to "go back into a lot more independent films, which are really the kinds of films that I do and the stories that I am mainly interested in." However, that's not to say that Miranda didn't get that from shooting Lord of the Rings. As huge as it is, Otto laughingly describes the Rings experience as "working on a really, big budget independent film. People say that in some ways [director] Peter Jackson is very much a guerrilla filmmaker. No matter how much money was involved, there was still that sense of working everything out on the day and a real sense of chaos."
In The Two Towers, the second chapter in the Rings trilogy, Otto plays one of the first human characters to interact in the saga, playing the strong-minded Éowyn, Shieldmaiden of Rohan, a fiery, beautiful princess, who has to help her uncle, Théoden, King of Rohan, defend her nation from the armies of the villainous Saruman the White. In the process, she finds herself falling in love with the heroic Aragorn, who is in love with the beautiful elf Arwen. In landing the only other principal female role in the remaining Rings chapters, Otto recalls "it was an easy audition in that I only auditioned for it once. Pete wasn't even there as he had already begun shooting in New Zealand, so I went in, put it down on tape and had a quick scene to do. I had to audition with both an American and English accent which was weird, and that was that." The actress adds that she didn't realize "the magnitude of the production that I was getting involved in and didn't know much about it, so I wasn't too nervous about it." While director Jackson said that Otto was perfect for the role of Éowyn, the actress has no idea why that was, "though I think one thing would have to be that I could play something of another period, not to appear too modern. I guess they needed someone who was able to mould into a world that seemed to have been forged a long time ago and I suppose have some sense of period." In further describing the character's dichotomist toughness and romanticism Otto sees her "as a fighter and someone who is idealistic, who wants to live her life, not compromise and stand up for the things that she believes in as well as look after her people. Her main frustrations are that she may be led into compromising inactivity. As far as her romantic streak goes, she's been someone who's been brought up with men her whole life, so romance has never been a significant part of her life, until Aragorn and it's a little frightening as much as anything. I don't think she's a romantic, Sleeping Beauty-type character, but rather someone determined to be who she is and stick up for that," Miranda explains. Miranda laughs when asked what surprised her the most about being a part of this project. "The biggest surprise I had was when I arrived and realizing what film I was IN," she recalls. "I auditioned for this in Australia, after all, not ever meeting the director or writers, being handed some scripts back to front because they had the wrong numbered covers on them, not having been able to get through the whole book in the couple of days I had to audition for it and thinking because it was in New Zealand and a Peter Jackson film, it would be something small and low-key." She never imagined that this would be a film "of such enormous magnitude, so the huge shock was when I went over and saw what they were building, saw the creatures and prosthetics. I couldn't sleep that night I was so excited, in that it was like being in The Wizard of Oz." Otto adding, "It's a story that people hold close to their hearts."
Though professionally acting since a teenager, Miranda who is the daughter of renowned stage and film actor Barry Otto [Strictly Ballroom], says that her perceptions of the profession have changed considerably since she first started. "I have different perceptions to other people because of my father being an actor", she explains. "I see how much he's put into it and I still see that there are no guarantees, that no matter how well respected you are and how much you've done, you still wait for work." But it's not just the insecurities of her profession that concern her, even now, but the added demands of her time doing publicity, especially for an event film such as Lord of the Rings. "It seems now that people are more keen to give away parts of your personal life and that's what I never imagined when I got into acting." Rather, she recalls, when she got into it, "I watched my father on the stage and that's what acting was to me, dressing up in costumes, pretending to be other people and living through different lives. I remember Judy Davis once telling me: If you want to be an actor you'd better carry a briefcase, and now I see exactly what she means. This has become such a business and the people who are good at the business side of it handle things better." Otto remains dismayed at our obsession with celebrity, recalling, "that back home I've been followed by a photographer which is just so intrusive."
Perhaps this is why Miranda remains a ferociously private person, refusing invitations to attend "a cocktail party for the latest toenail polish. I just don't want to do that stuff anymore." Once having dated Moulin Rouge star Richard Roxburgh, the couple split up as Miranda was due to shoot Rings. "I think I was in the mood for letting out a bit of aggression on set", she recalls laughingly. While her private life at the time was in the spotlight, she hopes that the success of The Two Towers and next year's Return of the King, won't allow herself to be entrenched in unwanted media scrutiny. "I just want to act and not let all the other bullshit get in my way," That's why she still calls Australia home.

Our pets may be nonverbal, but that doesn't mean that they don't know how to tell us when they're not feeling so hot.
Nonetheless, some can be super-secretive, hiding everything from how they feel physically to what their emotional landscape looks like.
As a veterinarian, I'm constantly interpreting subtle signs of distress and translating very specific cues into real health-care decisions.
You, too, can learn to read certain signs of potential problems, and then take your pet to the vet. All you need is a little insight — and plenty of practice.
With that goal in mind, here's my list of the top 10 ways our pets keep secrets that we'd rather they didn't.
As you can imagine, this is a huge issue for veterinarians. Identifying pain can be hard to do when pets' pain-relieving adrenaline is pumping and they're obviously doing their very best to be sure that they don't show any weakness.
Just so you know, dogs' and cats' wild ancestors imbued them with the ability to mask pain. This is an especially attractive quality when you live in mortal fear of predators who share your ecosystem. There's no time for visible suffering when a predator is looking for his next meal!
Although dogs will show you when their skin is irritated by chewing and scratching, cats are infinitely subtler. Most itchy kitties will display their discomfort by over-grooming. If the irritation is intense enough, hair loss can even result. It's only in the most extreme cases — such as with ear mites and mange — that cats will scratch to relieve itching, sometimes with claw marks to show for it.
Can you imagine your food-obsessed dog ever confessing to this? The truth is that dogs, cats, goats and horses are the only species I know of that will eat themselves to death. It's kind of sad — but true — that most canines are capable of taking in as much food as we're willing to give them. And cats? That bottomless bowl of kibble that so many of their owners offer them means that they never have to ask for more.
Lots of things can make a dog tired: hypothyroidism, Cushing's disease, diabetes, malnutrition, anemia, osteoarthritis, heart disease, cancer, fevers, etc. To you, it may seem like your pet is just getting old or settling into that couch potato middle age thing, but the truth of the matter may be more sinister.
It's hard for pets to convey a loss of vision. While sudden blindness may lead to obvious signs of distress and confusion, a gradual loss of vision is hard to get a handle on if pets are good at adapting — and they almost always are!

"Where is mike?"
This was an good book a bit boring for me after the 1st two in the series. he lost mike a bit here not enough of our favorite hero here but i do like the sheeba.
"It was good"
I enjoy the author. Narrator was good. Felt the story lacked the fun of the kris longknife novels. But I will try the next book and see if the Vicky series takes its own.
"Good im gonna try the next book"
The book didn't grab me right off. In fact I listen to 2 other books. It's ranks as a standby series for me. A book between others. But in going to start the second one see where it goes.
"Love this series"
This series is well though out. And a different marine takes charge of this book bug she does a great job. He is writing very strong and believable women which is great. One of my favorite narrators as well.
"Good space opera."
A slot of times in multi book series some things get old. Like the jump drive blue white washing over the bridge. The author played with that finally in this book. And the story is staying somewhat fresh. When the book ended my first thought was "how long till the next one". And it has left me wondering where this is going.
"Im glad i bought the first one. even better 2nd"
To be honest i never ever get a book with less the 10 hours. but i was desperate and bought it on my phone. and i couldn't be happier. ow the second book gave me the 10 hours and the story i was looking for. if you like dirty, under the gun fast pace sic fi like i do you should love this series
"Not for me Good but not for me"
I like david weber if i read his books. his honorverse narrator sends me up a wall. so when i saw this i jumped on it. but this is dragged out history lesson. if you love the honor verse you love it I'm sure. well written and narrator. just honestly not for me. only reason i ut 3 stars is its not fair to go any lower just because its not my type of book. Still a good book if you like extreme detail. but i didn't finish it,
"Defiantly a freshman book but do it any way!"
This book seems to be a first for the author. not as smooth as i would like, good action, good characters. character have a good sense of right and wrong and sacrifice. a good little love story in there. just what you think a person might be in a future service.
"Long winded good story great narrator"
It really would be in my opinion a 3 1/2 but i think that rating on audible would keep some one from trying this book. its a good book. but they get into things like the press, and politics and tends to be a bit dry, English author. but the story and the drive of the book and you gotta love the captain and his real deamon of alcohol.
I like this narrator allot. i have heard several of his books and he never seems to share a voice between them. i never say oh ya thats that character from this other book with him. one of the few narrators i can do that with.
"Good but dwells on things a bit"
The story is good and i want to know what happens an i will listen to the next one. but it may get pushed back for more favorable authors. I prefer a fast paced book, i am not a hardcore read me the serial number sci fi fan. i like it fast pace action pact hero driven book. but the story will make me keep coming back, because the hero here gets in a spot and i really want to know what happens and i like him. if he wouldn't tell me so much about marine procedure and why and don't of everything he does. oh and he repeats some of the same things to.
Solid Narrator, i could identify each character by his voice. he lead questions to questions and statements to statements i was never confused ny the meaning.
"Please publish rest of the series"
I thought this was a really good fast pace book. The politics of whats going on were not dragged out. the physics of light speed were not dragged out. in fact they were on the fringe with realistic believable problems. I though author didn't dwell on any individual thing or character. it was pleasant and fast pace. but i need to know what happens next!
