Posted on 08/06/2003 3:48:20 PM PDT by Tailgunner Joe
Wolves are being reintroduced to wildlands to drive people out, intentionally putting human life at risk for the sake of creating a UN biodiversity preserve.
Across the nation, particularly in western states, ranchers are feeling the bite of the so-called "wolf recovery" program, which began with reintroducing wolves to Yellowstone National Park in 1995. Stemming from the Endangered Species Act (ESA), this program was followed three years later with the return of Mexican gray wolves in the Southwest, and similar initiatives are underway in the Midwest and Northeast.
As the resurgent wolf packs thrive, they are inflicting serious economic damage on dairy and beef ranchers. Notes the November 9th Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel: "[B]eef cattle ranchers in northwestern Wisconsin say nighttime wolf raids cost them 92 calves [in 2001] alone.... Theyve found calves with their hindquarters shredded, still alive and trying to suckle. They have stumbled upon a pregnant cow ripped open and her fetus torn out. They have seen calves with crushed throats dead without losing a drop of blood. Killed, they believe, simply for the thrill." "There is a reason the farmers made [wolves] extinct before, and this is probably the reason," comments Cortney Fornengo, whose family runs a beef cattle ranch in Wisconsin.
According to the December 30th Salt Lake Tribune, the impact of wolf recovery on the ranching industry in Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming is measured primarily by "an absence of calves coming home after herds graze [in] national forests." The family of Dick and Betty Baker, sixth-generation cattle ranchers in Salmon, Idaho, describe how wolves have literally intruded into their backyard to prey on cattle and sheep. Seeking to contain the predators, federal wildlife officials "got after them with rubber bullets and helicopters and spent a lot of money," Dick Baker recalled. Despite such cost-intensive efforts, "we [still] see wolves lay right up there on the bench watching the cattle and waiting for dark."
Jay Wiley owns a ranch located along Idahos Salmon River. He points out that since 1995, "The [wolf] population just exploded, and [federal wildlife officials] have lost control." Wiley also points out that the owner of a neighboring ranch lost $12,000 worth of calves in wolf attacks during 2001. And with the feds looking to add local species such as the sage grouse and bull trout to the endangered species list, Wiley and other ranchers may be driven to sell off their land.
Heartbreaking though it is to lose a family ranch, losing a family member is incomparably worse. If not for their dogs protective instincts, the family of retired postal worker Richard Humphrey may have fallen prey to Mexican wolves during an April 1998 camping trip near Safford, Arizona. The family had set up camp in a well-known tourist location when their dog Buck discovered two Mexican wolves lurking nearby. The wolves backed off, and the family assumed that "the wolves were just passing through."
A little more than an hour later, Helen screamed for Richard to grab his rifle. A short distance from the camp Buck had become entangled in a life-and-death fight with several wolves. Armed with his rifle, Richard tried to chase the wolves away. One of them suddenly charged at the Humphreys, and Richard shot him down less than 50 feet from his family. The family gently gathered their seriously wounded dog and went to find a veterinarian. When they arrived at Safford, Richard in compliance with federal law reported the wolf shooting to an agent of the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (FWS).
The terrifying wolf attack was just the beginning of the Humphrey familys problems. Notes Range magazine, "Richard had accidentally become a political pawn and scapegoat." Eco-radical groups in Arizona demanded that the retired postal worker be slapped with a huge fine and sent to prison. After six weeks of relentless and invasive questioning by federal officials, no charges were filed against Humphrey, provoking eco-radical outrage.
"By refusing to prosecute Richard Humphrey the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service has sent a signal that killing wolves is not a serious crime," complained the Center for Biological Diversity. Bear in mind that the supposed crime committed by Humphrey was to defend himself, his wife, and two young daughters from a potentially lethal attack. Its also important to recognize that it was the FWS that had created the conditions for this near tragedy. As Range magazine points out, "wolves were being fed road-kill twice per week by [the] FWS" in release pens less than a mile away from the campsite where the attack occurred. "FWS had guaranteed in public meetings that Notice of general wolf locations will be publicized," reported the publication. "If they had followed through with their pledges to the public, the Humphreys calamitous situation would not have occurred."
But such situations are the predictable indeed, the intended result of the federal governments wolf "re-colonization" effort. Renee Askins of the eco-radical Wolf Recovery Fund has admitted that "wolf recovery is not about wolves. [Instead] it is about control of the west."
Wildlife ecologist Dr. Charles F. Kay summarizes: "Simply put, environmentalists are using wolf recovery and the Endangered Species Act to run ranchers out of the country and to thwart multiple use of public lands.... Is this what Congress had in mind when it passed the Endangered Species Act?"
While Congress probably didnt intend for the Endangered Species Act to drive humans off their land, that is the acts inevitable effect. And this is entirely understandable considering that acts pedigree. Dr. Michael S. Coffman, a forest biologist and author of Saviors of the Earth?, points out that the Endangered Species Act is adapted from the UNs Convention on the International Trade in Endangered Species of Flora and Fauna.
The ESAs decades-long assault on property rights thus has its origins in UN mandates. And the "rural cleansing" campaign is part of an even more grandiose UN program called the "Wildlands Project," under which half of the U.S. land area would be converted into a vast biodiversity preserve. One supporter of re-wilding western lands explained that reintroducing wolves and other large predators was intended to "bring back another element that has been vanishing from the Western back country. That ingredient is fear. Wolves are killers.... People will think twice before traipsing into the back country."
Simply put, the "wolf recovery" program is a form of environmental terrorism. Thus while the U.S. government is working through the UN to fight a war against terrorism abroad, it is collaborating with UN-linked environmental radicals to wage an eco-terrorist campaign against rural property owners here at home.
This will always be a problem in the West as long as the cattle industry are essentially partners with the Bureau of Land Management. The very nature of ranching makes it impossible to keep wild animals separated from cattle herds.
no win situation for the eco-nuts! Self Defense will always triumph in this argument! All one has to do is make sure no one is around who contradicts your story and everything should workout.
That being said if the benevolent(sic) bureaucracy starts harassing folks legally for shooting wolves for the sake of intimidation we all should band together and bring suit against the individual government employees involved!
After all fair is fair!
They'd probably get along fine, professional courtesy, you know!
No professional courtesy there whatsoever. The wolf is a very noble beast. Revered by Native Americans for it's strength and hunting ability.
On the other hand they would probably receive a lot of professional courtesy from a polecat, or a rat!
We aren't going to put up with this. I hunt coyotes in KY at the invitation of farmers and the coyotes are bad enough to require hunting as part of establishing a fear factor in the coyote population.
We are facing the introduction of wolves in western Kentucky and the problem of serious cattle losses will emerge quickly IMO. People will face a threat as described in this story. The facts are wolves will die as "varmit" hunters are invited in to take care of the problem.
The first time a human is seriously injured by a wolf in Kentucky the wolves will be wiped out. Count on it.
Yeah the eco-nuts reintroduced coyotes in southern Ohio and now packs of them are starting to wander onto farms and rural homes attacking livestock, pets and even small children.
Lots of shooting going on and the federales and statees don't like it none!
NUTS I sez to 'em!
Varmints is Varmints and if they don't want'em shot then don't let;em get near me and especially on my land!
I agree on the reintroduction part but they are very beautiful and noble animals! The pack is all to them they cooperate amongst themselves to hunt, they take great care of their young, they mate for life.
That being said if they mistake me for prey well that is their tough luck!
Brilliant! Superb thinking! I wonder how we
can get a movement started to reintroduce these
varmits on the border. Perhaps instead of killing
the wolves, maybe folks should get tranquilizer guns.
When a wolf intrudes on their property, just tranquilize
it and call some group to truck it to the border
for re-release. Same with the snakes, pumas, etc.
I like your idea!
Is there enough water for alligators to live in the
Rio Grande?
And where IS "around here?" What state is it I should be avoiding?
I have a better idea. Find out where the people live who pushed for or made the screwball decision to release preditors where people live and camp, then go to their house one day when they are gone and "introduce", oh lets say, some scorpions or a sack of really angry black racer snakes to the inside of their house. This is hypothetical, of course.
Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from this list.
It may be possible to drive a wedge between them and alienate some of the more ideological greens away from the movement, and maybe even recruit them into the "Wise Use" camp.
They've just misdirected their energies in a futile direction.
It'd be much more beneficial if they worked toward replenishing the populations of game animals: pheasant, quail, elk, antelope, wild turkey, bunny rabbits, walleye, trout, etc, etc.
Then everybody would be happy.
I've heard this before, but someone sent me one of their mags, and it didn't seem all that tinfoil from what I breifly glossed over.
Fill me in.
I believe we should have some Wilderness regions, and I don't believe we have enough ---- we should release some of these wolves around Congress and the rest of Washington DC.
You also have good taste.
Excellent Idea!
No "re-introduction" needed or possible.
200 years ago coyotes weren't found east of Texas. In the last 50 years or so they've spread all the way to Canada and the East Coast all by themselves. They apparently represent little threat to humans, but they are sheer death on pets.
However, if I'm not out looking for the wolves, they'll probably find me with a 1911A1 (Kimber Custom). I still like my odds. ;^)
The next time the wolves kill a calf or a cow, set it out in some open area and sit there 300 yards back with a 300 winmag or something, i.e. far enough away the noise won't spook the wolves, shoot a half dozen or a dozen of them, and leave the carcasses piled up in front of the ecoterrorists offices with some sort of a message letting them know how you really feel.

Bush On Katrina: Don't Tell Me The Federal Response Was Slow
From Thinkprogress.org
During his final press conference this morning, Bush defended his response to Katrina. He said he has %u201Cthought long and hard about Katrina and admitted that things [could] have been done better but denied any problem with the federal response to the disaster, insisting, dont's tell me the federal response was slow!%u201D:
The federal response to Katrina was nothing short of a disaster. A 2006 report compiled by House Republicans slammed what it called failure of leadership, saying that the federal government blinding lack of situational awareness and disjointed decision making needlessly compounded and prolonged Katrina%u2019s horror. The report specifically blamed Bush, noting that earlier presidential involvement could have speeded the response because the president alone could have cut through bureaucratic resistance.
There is no question that the federal response was slow deadly slow. Katrina made landfall on Monday, Aug. 29, 2005, and the New Orleans levees were breached that morning. Despite the numerous warnings he had received about the storms severity, Bush spent that Monday traveling to Arizona and California to promote his Medicare drug bill. It was characteristic of the entire federal response: National Guard troops did not arrive in the area until two full days after the levees were breached. Bush did not leave his vacation home or assemble a task force until Wednesday, two days after the hurricane made landfall and the levees were breached.
By Thursday, three days after landfall, FEMA had yet to set up a command and control center.
FEMA Director Michael Brown said he had not heard about the more than 3,000 evacuees stranded in the convention center until Thursday. Many evacuees had been there since Tuesday morning.
On Friday morning, Bush praised Brown: Brownie, your'e doing a heckuva job. He also said he was satisfied with the response.
FEMA did not finalize its request for evacuation buses until Sunday, six days after Katrina hit. The buses trickled into New Orleans, with only a dozen or so arriving the first day, noted the Wall Street Journal.
The Superdome was finally evacuated on Sunday, a full seven days after 30,000 evacuees had arrived there.
Despite a FEMA official eyewitness accounts of breaches starting at 7 p.m. on Aug. 29,the Bush administration %u201Cdid not consider them confirmed until 11 hours later. In fact, FEMA did not order the evacuation of New Orleans until 1:30 a.m. on Aug. 31, two full days after Katrina made landfall.
In one area, however, the Bush administration did move quickly: pinning the blame for Katrina on its political opponents.
Update Following today's press conference, Karl Rove appeared on Fox News to join in absolving the Bush administration of any blame regarding the Katrina response. "The federal government is in charge of writing checks. It's not in charge of the action itself," Rove said.

The scene opens with three agents leaving from work at Engraving and Printing. They get into an armored truck and one of them has a briefcase that has an engraving plate of a $100 bill. As they drive down the road, a remote control car drives in front of them with explosives tied to it. It goes under the armored truck and it detonates. Men come out and kill the two agents and go up to the briefcase. However, neither of the men have a key to the handcuffs that is strapped to the suitcase so they cut off the man's hand to get it away from him. Meanwhile, Lizzy is on the phone and Samantha decides to call a staff meeting. She tells Lizzy that she and Steven are going to be away even more and that they are promoting Lizzy to Catering Manager. Lizzy is excited, but tells that she is going to have to think about it. Samantha is shocked and tries to talk to Lizzy about it. However, Shaw comes in and they take the hint that it is another mission.
They sit down with him and Shaw says that they have a mission to get back engraving plates that were stolen from a Secret Service Armored car the other night. He says that it is most likely that the plates are out of the country already and that they are going to have to track it down before the money is printed. He says that they are going to have to contact a CIA agent to get some information. Samantha and Steven decide that going to Washington and talk to Gary, an expert in this type of things, and Steven's brother. However, he hasn't talked to Gary in five years. When they get to Gary's place, Steven finds out that Samantha didn't tell his brother that they were coming for a visit and things are awkward. Samantha realizes that Steven and Gary are not the best of brothers and that their past isn't as she thought. However, after a while, Gary gives them a list of 8 people who are capable of doing the counterfeit bills. Samantha and Steven go off to find the people. Hoyt meets up with them and tells that a Greek-American named Jonathan Rakas is a master printer, but retired six months ago. He has 45 years experience with the Bureau of Engraving. He says that he lives in Cyprus and that he has been missing for a week. They decide to go to Cyprus.
They arrive in Cyprus and Samantha and Steven go to Rakas' place and break in. Once they look around, they find that it is just a studio that is filled with paint colors. Samantha realizes that Rakas has been trying to get the color of the money just right. They realize also, after a scan, that he has succeeded already. Back in America, Lizzy goes to Samantha and Steven's place and finds Leo there. Lizzy tells him that she stays at their place when Samantha and Steven are not around. She tells that she is going to help Leo cook dinner. Back with Steven and Samantha in Cyprus, Hoyt finds a receipt in the apartment that says that the orders have been shipped and that there is a ship that is carrying dye for the money in transit and headed to Croatia. At the same moment, a man pays an attendant to the port money to receive the shipment that is coming the next day. They get to Croatia and watch as the shipment is unloaded. They disguise themselves as Interpol Currency Enforcement and tell the driver to open up the containers. However, when they open them, they are filled with shoes and not the dye they thought. They realize that the numbers on the containers of the ships were switched. They talk to the port attendant and he says that he doesn't know anything. However, Samantha looks at the surveillance footage and finds that the shipment was picked up at 3 AM and Hoyt finds that the truck that was there has GPS.
They follow the signal and find the truck parked outside of a casino. The owner of the casino is Goran Hincir, a Balkan crime boss. When they see the man, it is the same man who paid off the port attendant to deny everything. Steven goes inside and pretends that he and Hoyt are on his bachelor party. Samantha is dressed as a cocktail waitress and they look around for the printing expert who was kidnapped by Hincir. She sees Rakas and says that Hincir wants him and escorts him. Steven grabs Rakas and asks where the plates are. Rakas says that he will tell them, but he needs protection. They agree and he says that the paper is coming and that the plates are secured in a voice operated vault. Only Hincir's voice unlocks it. Hoyt goes out of the casino and is stopped by Gary. He says that they are going to have to get Hincir vulnerable. This is through his brother, the dock foreman.
Meanwhile, Leo drives with Lizzy in Samantha and Steven's car. Leo asks why Lizzy hasn't said yes to the promotion and Lizzy confesses that she is tired of following after Samantha's shadow and wants to do something else. Back in Croatia, Steven, Samantha and Gary go to the port to track down Hincir's brother, Novak. With a name change, he didn't want to have his brother's business be his too. They talk to Novak and Steven is more of a direct approach. However, Samantha comes up to find Steven and Gary arguing and tells them to find a way to get along with one another. Steven says that he doesn't need Gary and that he can talk to Novak himself. They get back to the casino and Hoyt tells them of the security that the vault has. Rakas is turned over to Interpol and Samantha moves on to the third part of their plan. Hoyt shows his skills with a casino chip that has a radio frequency so powerful that it will intercept the combination. Before 11 PM, he is told that he has to lose it in play. However, Hoyt tells the team that he doesn't know what to do after Hincir goes in to change out the big casino chips. Steven says that he has a plan.
They start their plan and everything is going good. Hincir takes the cart of chips, including the bugged chip, and goes to the vault. Hoyt's phone gets the recording. Hincir goes back to Steven and he tricks Hincir into saying all the numbers of the combination. The recording device is passed to Samantha. Novak comes in the casino and tells Hincir that Steven and his team came to talk to him at the dock. Immediately, Hincir tells the men to grab the plates and says that he will take care of Steven. He goes up to him and points a gun to Steven's back. Meanwhile, Samantha is picking the lock, but is caught by Hincir's men. Hincir sees Samantha and the assistants fighting Samantha. He sees her knock them out and tells that he will deal with her himself. Samantha picks the lock and sees that her next obstacle is a laser field. Novak takes the handcuffs off Steven and tells that he is on Steven's side. They break into the computers and disarm the lasers. With the voice recorder, Samantha gets into the vault and when Hincir enters the vault, he finds that they are gone. Samantha escapes and has the plates with her. She jumps into a van that is waiting.
Steven and Novak exit the building and Hincir is there. He tells that Novak is no longer his brother and goes to shoot him and Steven. However, Gary is there and shoots Hincir in the chest. Steven and Gary settle their feud and they tell that they love each other and Samantha and Steven go back to the states. Once there, Shaw meets them at the catering business and tells that Hincir survived the shooting and that they have him in custody. Later, Steven and Samantha find Leo and Lizzy cooking together. Samantha doesn't like that Lizzy and Leo are getting close, but Lizzy says that they are only friends. Lizzy tells Samantha that she doesn't want to work with her and says that she is going to go on the European Tour with her boyfriend. Samantha says that she will miss her and they hug.

Why did Lord Krishna attack Bhishma (Bhishma Pitamaha), in spite of vowing that he would not pick up a weapon in the Kurukshetra war?
Sign up

Shri Krishna had to attack Bhishma (actually He almost attacked him) because Arjuna was unable to stop the wrath that Bhishma had unleashed. Arjuna promised Shri Krishna to take out Bhisma in battle:
But while battling with Bhisma, Arjuna broke the string of his own bow:
So Shri Krishna seeing that Arjuna was fighting mildly and Bhishma was showering arrows, put away the reins of the horses and jumped down from the chariot and proceeded to kill Bhishma:
But after that, Arjuna pleaded Krishna to not break His vow and promised to kill Bhisma himself. Shri Krishna in anger without saying a word to Arjuna (unlike what we have seen in TV shows) goes back and mounts the chariot.
So from this account of the Mahabharat, it seems that even though Shri Krishna had promised to not use weapons, he was forced to take the step of using one due to the unstoppable wrath of Bhishma which Arjuna had failed to prevent.
On a side note, Shri Krishna did this because His main purpose was not to be known as someone who keeps his vow, but to establish dharma as He had stated to Arjuna in Gita (4.7-8). So when He saw the side of dharma was facing trouble in the battle, He had to interfere in it anyway. Also, He might have done it to please Bhishma as well who was His devotee.
Reference: Mahabharat - Bhishma Parva
Before the war of Mahabharata had started, Arjuna and Duryodhana both approached Krishna for help in the war. Krishna had himself (with the vow not to use weapons), and his mighty army. He asked the two to take one each. Duryodhana, chose the mighty army of Krishna, while Arjuna humbly begs Krishna to be just his charioteer, knowing that whichever side Krishna is in, will win the war.
When Duryodhana goes back to Hastinapur, he starts bragging about his act, and that Arjuna must be a fool that he opted for Krishna, knowing about his vow. Bheeshma immediately reckons Krishna's plot, and taunts Duryodhana for his ignorance. And argument errupts between the two and leads Bheeshma to vow that he would make Krishna use weaponry in the war.
Bhishma was a true devotee of Krishna, knowing which, Krishna plots to break his own vow, and let Bhishma complete his.
So, just one day before Bheeshma was about to lay on the baadon ki shaiya (bed of arrows), Krishna pretends that he is annoyed by Bheeshma's attacks and Arjuna's reluctant behaviour of not fighting against Bhishma with all the power he has, and goes to attack Bheeshma with a broken chariot wheel. Bheeshma understood that Krishna is staging an act just to uphold Bheeshma's vow, and surrenders to Krishna to kill him.
As the vow is now broken, and Krishna doesn't intend to kill his devotee with his own hands, he enacts that he is melted by Bheeshma's nature, and he goes back to Arjuna. (It is versioned that Arjuna himself begged Krishna for Bheeshma's life, but anyways, Krishna wasn't the one to kill Bheeshma).
As the story goes on, Arjuna slays through Bheeshma, the following day.
This finally justifies that Krishna values his (true) devotees more than himself.
I am aware of the story in AwalGarg's answer but I always knew a slightly different version of this story, here it goes.
There is also one rhyme, I used to say in childhood, which describes the event after Bhishma took vow to kill Arjuna. In that rhyme, Krishna told Draupadi to go to Bhishma with covered face and touch his feet and tricked him to give "सौभाग्यवती भव" aashirvad. Now Bhisma got stuck in his aahirvad and vow. To help him Krishna promised him that he will do something to help Bhisma. That's why he used chariot wheel to attack Bhisma so that he doesn't have to break his vow and also complete his aashirvaad. This rhyme is called "Chaliya".
Actually bhishma was a devotee of krishna and wanted from inside to be killed by Lord krishna only.. Krishna knew this and for his love to bhishma only he was ready to break his wow.. That's a right answer..
Before starting the war of Mahabharata, The Bhishmpitama had affirmed (promised) to himself that " I am not the Shantanu putra (Son of Ganga) till i make force to Krishna to pick weapons in Mahabharata tht's the reason Bhishmpitama attacked on Arjun in full force till the chariot(rath) of Arjun is broken down. So the Krishna Used the wheel of charriot as a chakra in against of Bhishmpitama, and while seeing all this Arjun hold the feets of Krishna that u had promised to not attack on any one's in Mahabharata then Krishna said it was not for your or my sake "it was all about the affirmed of BHISHMPITAMA thts the reason of only attacking
just read all the answers and different versions...
i seriously feel... Neither Did Krishna Bhagwan break his promise... Nor Did he show mercy on a leader of Adharmi...
He did keep his vow of not using any of his weapons (which consists but not limited to Shankha, Chakra, Gada, Asi, Or even Padma)...
he has used a wheel of a chariot (Which technically can not be Classified as weapon of any form)... And kept his vow... also... he has maintained his divinely principle of fighting against the Adharma... by not controlling his anger and being steady on the chariot...
in this manner... he has remanifested his promise to Dharmi Janas... of Preventing Adharma from happening to them in any and all circumstances...

Here's a sample code from the docs
Ext.create('Ext.form.Panel', {
title: 'Contact Info',
width: 300,
bodyPadding: 10,
renderTo: Ext.getBody(),
items: [{
xtype: 'textfield',
name: 'name',
fieldLabel: 'Name',
allowBlank: false
}, {
xtype: 'textfield',
name: 'email',
fieldLabel: 'Email Address',
vtype: 'email'
If I call
Ext.getCmp('email').focus() nothing visible happens.
What's the correct way to focus a field in extjs 4?

OK, I'm rebuilding a "vintage" PC. I have 2 * IDE HDDs and 1 * IDE DVD-ROM. I can't remember if I should put the 2 HDDs on the same cable and the DVD-ROM alone or if I should put one HD with the DVD-ROM on the same cable (in this case which one is master and which one is slave)?
And if you can tell me why one setup it's better than another it would be great as this knowledge is long lost for me!
This is my setup:
- 1st HDD used for OS (DOS only) and system tools
- 2nd HDD used for games
- DVD-ROM used to play games and play music CDs

Hilarious. They should took Limahl for this piece on vocal :) I have completely no idea why some pianist would inrerrupt driving a car, but this is so nevermid-ad that i buy it.
great trip, i love it.
but it could happen that the majority of average viewers will remember all the distracting elements and not the car brand
The bike scene looks like it belongs in a Benny Benassi video. Nothing wrong with bikini-clad girls on bikes, might even be better than girls on trampolines. 10

Microcontroller night light illuminates meaty issues.
Faced with an assignment to make a plush night light, I thought, "Why light?" and brainstormed reasons for a stuffed toy to light up. In a glowworm toy, for instance, the light mimics nature. I'd been reading Michael Pollan's The Omnivore's Dilemma, and this got me thinking about the chain of refrigeration, labor, and irradiation involved in American beef production. So I thought, glowing irradiated meat! I know that irradiated meat doesn't glow, and neither does toxic waste unless it's in a cartoon, but plush toys typically represent cartoon characters anyway, so it made sense: Plush Irradiated Sirloin.
Each half of the tray (4 steaks) glows in alternation with the other. The pattern is subtle and soothing, the way a good nightlight should be. They're soft, but not very cuddly, as they remain tethered to their circuit board. In the future I could embed smaller circuit boards inside each steak to make a portable, more snuggly version. I've also been thinking of making a larger version for throw pillows, or a smaller version with catnip instead of electronics. These steaks have been great conversation starters in the classroom and online, and I hope they inspire people to learn about the politics of our food industry.

Diabetes Health Center
Prevention and Early Intervention for Diabetes Foot Problems
In this article
1. Methodology
Research articles, most published since 1990, were identified and retrieved through computerized searches of the National Library of Medicine database (MEDLINE). This review is not meant to summarize the entire literature on the subject, but rather to present a condensation and consolidation of the major findings concerned with prevention of and early intervention for diabetes foot disease. Key points are highlighted in boldface.
2. The Scope of the Problem
National Goals for Diabetes Foot Care
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' report specifying health objectives for the nation, Healthy People 2000, calls for a 40 percent overall reduction in lower extremity amputations (LEA) due to diabetes by the year 2000. A special population target goal for amputations is to reduce the 1984-87 rate of amputations in African Americans from 10.2 to 6.1 per 1,000 by the year 20001. These goals are based on the estimate that at least 50 percent of the amputations that occur each year in people with diabetes can be prevented through proper foot care. To achieve the targeted 40 percent reduction, at least 80 percent of people with diabetes at high risk for lower extremity amputations must receive effective clinical management and foot care1. Current data indicate that on average, 50 to 60 percent of patients with diabetes have a semi-annual foot examination2,3.
Minorities at Higher Risk for Amputation
Analysis of a statewide California hospital discharge database indicated that in 1991, the age-adjusted incidence of diabetes-related lower extremity amputations per 10,000 people with diabetes was 95.3 in African Americans, 56.0 in non-Hispanic whites, and 44.4 in Hispanics. Amputations were 1.72 and 2.17 times more likely in African Americans compared with non-Hispanic whites and Hispanics, respectively. Hispanics had a higher proportion of amputations (82.7 percent) associated with diabetes as opposed to other causes of amputation, than did African Americans (61.6 percent) or non-Hispanic whites (56.8 percent)4.
Amputation rates in San Antonio, TX, were 66.5 per 10,000 for whites, 120.1 per 10,000 for Mexican Americans, and 181.2 per 10,000 for African Americans5. The incidence of amputations for Native Americans living on the Gila River Indian Reservation was 24.1 per 1,000 person-years compared to 6.5 per 1,000 person-years for the overall U.S. population with diabetes6. Increased awareness and identification of diabetes-related foot disease is especially important in these high-risk minority groups.

Residents wary of fish proctection effort
Published: Friday, October 10, 2008 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, October 9, 2008 at 11:07 p.m.
MILLS RIVER Most speakers at a public hearing on Thursday opposed the states proposal to reclassify a six-mile stretch of Boylston Creek to help protect trout.
Around 50 people showed up to a public hearing.
The creek and all the small tributaries that flow into it are classified as a Class C water. The state proposes to increase the protection to a Class C trout stream.
The change would create a 25-foot buffer on both sides of Boylston Creek and the other bodies of water that drain into the creek.
Adriene Weaver, North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources environmental senior specialist, said the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission made a request for the change in classification to the creek.
A study by the Division of Water Quality showed that brook and rainbow trout lived in the creek, and the state decided to move forward with the reclassification, Weaver said.
Phil Allison, who owns a farm along the creek, was worried about the new classification. He said 90 percent of the land along the creek was farmed and he did not want anything to harm the farming economy.
I am totally against it, 100 percent, Allison said.
Weaver said agriculture and forestry were exempt from the reclassification. She said the use of the land will not change for farmers if the recommendation is approved.
Distrust and fear
Randy Barton said he and his family have owned property on a branch of Boylston Creek. He was worried that the new classification would prevent him from doing anything with his land and believes it takes away his property rights.
We do feel this is zoning, and it is zoning without representation, Barton said.
He said people in Western North Carolina have a strong mistrust of the state government and are wary of new regulations. The state came in and took DuPont State Forest from a private property owner and might increase the regulations along Boylston Creek more than the proposal.
If there are reasons to distrust the state, we have reasons in these mountains, Barton said.
Protecting the fish
Division of Water Quality Regional Supervisor Steve Tedder, who moderated the public hearing, said the buffer was needed to keep vegetation along the creek intact. The canopy from the plants keeps the water temperature cool, creating a better environment for trout, he said.
It is strictly to protect the resources which is fish, he said.
Resident Jim Clayton said the fish do not need more protection. The state found thriving fish in the stream, which demonstrates it is healthy.
If the trout are living in the stream, the trout have adapted and maybe Mother Nature doesnt need any help, Clayton said.
The real threat to fish in the creek is sediment, he said. Every time the area gets a large rain, the creek turns red from runoff.
Division of Land Resources Assistant Regional Engineer Charles Koontz said property owners will only be impacted by the new classification when they disturb land with a grader or other heavy equipment. The new classification will help keep the soil out of the stream because it will keep the buffer in place when the land is developed, he said.
Koontz said landowners can get a variance from the state if they can prove that any disturbance to the ground in the buffer area is minimal.
Palmyra Romero, with Asheville-based Riverkeepers, said the new classification might not significantly impact landowners. She said the trout designation will help protect water now and into the future.
I think a lot of the troubles are misunderstanding, she said. It helps keep a natural environment around the water.

Am I the only person who does not care that anyone is brining Imus back? And did anyone listen to Imus when he was on TV in the first place?
He is just another ranting idiot with air time. Let him make an ass out of himself. And let's get that protest organized for Lynwood this weekend!!!
I can't believe that Rice is even talking about a Palestine State. That just amazes the fuck out of me. Maybe there will be one good thing the Bush Administration does before the end of his term. It wouldn't make up for all the failings, but would be HUGE in helping to establish peace.
I do wonder about the timing though, since she is supposed to testify in a trial about giving secrets to the Israeli government....
Someone told me that they revised the cell phone/hands-free law and made it effective this past Friday (instead of July 2008). But I've searched all over and can't find any news stories on it. Is this true? They also said they are now ticketing for not using your blinker to change lanes or merge..instead of it being a secondary offense. Again, can't find it anywhere in news online or the WA State website
That piece about Imus is hilarious. The Drudge report is practically creaming their jeans over his return, calling it "a dramatic and dazzling career rebound" (you think they described Gore's resurrection that way?) and breathlessly ask "WILL THE ELITES TURN THEIR BACK ON HIM?" regarding whether he can actually get major political figures on his show. Oh yeah, his "stunning comeback is a defeat for those who protested and picketed Imus earlier this year" and Hillary Clinton in particular is going to feel his wrath.
So it's illegal to DWC (Driving While Cell-phone-talking) now? I thought that was supposed to happen July 1, 2007?
Why are people still doing it then?
And I don't think the 13 yo boy was driving when they shot him for using a cell phone.
@ Will
it's only illegal if you're holding the phone in your hand instead of using a hands-free device. I did notice to phone stores with signs saying they moved the "effective date" up to last week. But still can't find any valid news stories to support this. Maybe it's just a marketing ploy to get people to buy new phones!
I wish there was a bounty.
Then I could make a mint taking pics of people breaking the Driving While Cell-Phoned and retire.
I still say if they're going to outlaw cell phones in your hand while driving then they also need to do a crackdown on eating, reading, shaving, putting on makeup...etc. I see more swerving and near-accidents from people preoccupied with these tasks than ones on their phones. I still don't get the shaving while driving...can't you guys do that at home?!?!

There was lots of activity in Rockaway over the Memorial Day weekend, what with parades, picnics and lots of war movies on television. There was less activity on many Rockaway beaches, not only because of the often inclement weather, but because many of the local beaches were closed due to the lifeguard shortage. The area from Beach 108 to Beach 114 Streets (left) was closed for that reason and flags denoted the area for would be swimmers.

Things I liked: That would be the many positive reviews of JSB pellets here and elsewhere. I like things that have a good reputation.
Things I would have changed: Pellets should be made to specs. My pellets were not 4.52 mm as it says on Pyramyd's listing but much smaller.
What others should know: I have tried two tins of these, the first one about two years ago, the second one just now. First thing I noticed was the extremely loose fit in my Benjamin Trail NP with pellets from either tin. There is no resistance whatsoever when I put the pellet in. I have to be careful when I flip the barrel up or the pellet may fall out. I measured head size with a pellet gauge and these guys are checking out at 4.46-4.48 mm. After firing there is smoke in the barrel reminiscent of a dry-fire (just not as much smoke). That means these pellets may seriously damage my gun.

Things I liked: What can you say. These 8.4 pellets are the choice for most everyone who shoot this grain. They are consistent, and uniform. I use these in my competition pistol at grand Prix matches.
Things I would have changed: Like all the JSB pellets, I would prefer a screw on lid to help prevent accidental pellet loss when moving them . I have had a tin tip over and open during A national FT match. You don't want to put a dirty pellet in your $2000.00 PCP..!
What others should know: When using a pellet inspector, the JSB line are very uniform on shape. Sometimes a tin will have a large variation in wgt

I have a Marurder .177, that I'm getting ready for a match, a 25 meter one. I would love to get the best pellet for accuracy for this match, can you help me out here ? Thanks,Tony
These are good. Marauder also likes Baracudas. H&N has a sampler you can try: H&N Field Target Sampler Pack,... and see which head sizes work best in yours
