By Chuck Cannon, Fort Polk Guardian staff writerDecember 20, 2010
FORT POLK, La. (Dec. 20, 2010) -- The early morning hours of April 25 were like most Louisiana spring mornings. There was a bit of a chill in the air but it wasn't frosty, and most area residents were either asleep, headed home from a date or, if a member of Fort Polk's 1st Battalion (Airborne), 509th Infantry Regiment, the Geronimos, headed to the field for another day of playing opposing forces to Soldiers preparing to deploy.
Michael Skinner, a 21-year-old from Hineston, had just dropped his girlfriend off at her house and was headed home down South Boundary Road in the Hineston area at about 3 a.m.
"It was my first time in the area and I wasn't familiar with the road," Skinner said. "I guess I fell asleep at the wheel. The next thing I remember was waking up in the hospital."
When Skinner dozed off, his truck left the roadway, crashed and caught fire, leaving the Alexandria native knocked out in the burning cab. His list of injuries reads like a M.A.S.H. unit's casualty lineup: Broken ribs, broken femur, third degree burns, shards of glass in his eyes, broken jaw, broken wrist, internal injuries and other things Skinner said he doesn't recall.
"They didn't know whether I would ever walk again or see out of my left eye," Skinner said. "I was in pretty bad shape."
It could have been worse but for the heroic deed of three Geronimo Soldiers.
Shortly after Skinner's accident, Sgt. Stuart Fredieu, Sgt. Coty Clare and Spc. Ryan Guillot, all with Alpha Company, 1st Bn, 509th Inf Reg, were headed down South Boundary Road for another day of playing OPFOR. Their actions that morning led to the three Geronimos receiving the Soldier's Medal during a ceremony here Dec. 15.
"We were on our way to STX (situational training exercise) lanes for training," Guillot said. "We saw the truck and thought at first that they were doing a controlled burn."
Guillot said the trio, traveling in two trucks, decided to stop and make sure there were no casualties.
"When we got to the vehicle, we saw there was a guy trapped inside," said Guillot, who hails from Donaldsonville.
Fredieu, a Shreveport native, said it was one of the worst wrecks he'd seen.
"I didn't think anyone could be alive," he said.
Brig. Gen. James Yarbrough, commander, Joint Readiness Training Center and Fort Polk, described the wrecked vehicle's condition as it was related to him.
"The young man was pinned in the cab, undercarriage was ripped off, front end crushed and in flames," Yarbrough said.
Clare, the ranking Soldier among the three, said he told his fellow Soldiers that they needed to move Skinner away from the burning vehicle.
"I had to dig his legs from under the truck," said Clare, who calls Oklahoma City, Okla., home.
Yarbrough described the three Soldiers' actions.
"They manually pried the steel frame of the door off of the vehicle and freed Michael Skinner, after lots of difficulty, even when flames continued to build," he said. "They got him out, unconscious, and evacuated him to a hospital. His (Skinner's) mother agrees - it sure beats the alternative."
Fredieu said he didn't think about what he was doing.
"We just did what we needed to do," he said. "I wasn't afraid. The front of the truck was on fire, but we'd all been deployed and seen stuff like that before."
Clare agreed.
"We're trained not to think, just react," he said. "I never gave it a second thought. I don't think I did anything heroic; I was just doing what any Soldier would do. A lot of guys in the military do this every day and don't get recognized for it."
Yarbrough likened the Soldier's Medal, the highest peacetime award given for valor, to the Silver Star. "The key point is personal risk of life," Yarbrough said. "In 32 years in the Army I've seen three Soldier's Medals awarded. The bar is set high. In the last 12 months, the Army has awarded 45 Silver Stars and 43 Soldier's Medals, so it's actually more difficult to receive a Soldier's Medal."
Yarbrough said the best part of the story is the Soldiers never gave it a second thought.
"It is a great reflection on the values of today's Soldiers," Yarbrough said. "They won't quit, never give up and never leave a fallen comrade behind."
Fredieu's mother, Tina Myatt, said her Family is proud of him.
"I'm in awe that God put Stuart and his friends there that night and that he reacted in the way he did," she said. "I've always felt that Stuart had the favor of God in his life."
Jared Myatt, Fredieu's younger brother by 10 years, said he wasn't surprised by his big brother's actions.
"That's the kind of person he is," Myatt said. "That's how he always was growing up."
Vivian LaCaze, Fredieu's grandmother, quoted the Bible, John 15:13 when asked her opinion of her grandson's actions.
"'Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends,'" she said. "If you knew Stuart, you'd know that his actions that morning was so like him."
Fredieu said he believes there was divine intervention involved.
"I thank God for putting us in the right place at the right time," he said.
JRTC and Fort Polk Command Sgt. Maj. Jeffrey Hof said the actions of Clare, Fredieu and Guillot were a reflection of the Soldiers stationed at Fort Polk.
"With the commanding general presenting the awards, I think this represents the goodness and contributions the Soldiers at the Home of Heroes have made over the past eight to 10 years," Hof said.
Yarbrough closed the ceremony by complimenting the three awardees.
"That night, these three Soldiers were magnificent," he said. "Fort Polk and the entire Army are proud of you."
Skinner's mother, Angela Pitre, agreed.
"These three men went above and beyond what most people would have done and saved my son's life," she said. "I pray for them and their Families and thank God for them every night. God put those Soldiers there."

the famous Goat Tavern: Double Cheezborger, Cheezborger, Cheezborger
this famous chicago institution claims to have the best cheezborgers! yes you heard it, they mispelled deliberately as a twang. Made famous by the assorted skits in Saturday Night Live, this active and busy restaurant is in the middle of the amusement area on the Navy Pier. Cheeseburgers, hamburgers, hot dogs, corn beef sandwich, and etc., but no fries! Billy Goat Tavern is a chain of taverns located in Chicago, Illinois, founded in by Billy Sianis, a Greek immigrant. It achieved fame primarily through newspaper columns by Mike Royko, a supposed curse on the Chicago Cubs and the Olympia Cafe sketch on Saturday Night Live. It now has several locations in the Chicago area, including here in the Navy Pier, the Merchandise Mart, O'Hare Airport, and the West Loop, and expanded to Washington, D.C.
Favorite Dish: alhtough they have other food items like assorted sandwhiches and a small rib eye steak, what else would you order but the double cheeseburger with no fries! for just $ 4.55 and a draft beer for $ 6.

Billy Goat Tavern: World Famous, but just OK
Several people told us we needed to eat at the World Famous Billy Goat Tavern, and my friend remembered it from an old Saturday Night Live skit (Cheezborger! Cheezborger!), so when we found ourselves at the Navy Pier at lunchtime, we thought we'd give it a try.
We were a little disappointed... The burger was just OK, and they do not offer french fries (she remembered that from the skit too - "no fries - CHEEPS!"). It wasn't terrible; it was just OK.
There is baseball memorabilia on the walls which relate to the Billy Goat's original owner putting a curse on the Chicago Cubs baseball team when they wouldn't allow him to bring his mascot billy goat to a game.
Since this is such a Chicago institution, I would be willing to try it again. Maybe they were having an off day, maybe I was having an off day...

You have to eat here for the experience, but you probably won't come back for the burger. It's pretty good, but there is better. What you come here for is to see the place made famous on Saturday Night Live by John Belushi.
"Cheezborger! Cheezborger! No fries, cheeps! No Pepsi, Coke!"
And as you walk in you'll quickly have to make up your mind from the limited menu, or you can let them decide for you. I walked in and the loud, friendly Greek guy went down the line shouting out "Dobble cheezborger! Dobble cheezborger! Dobble cheezborger! Dobble cheezborger! No? Cheezborger? Dobble cheezborger? Dobble cheezborger! Dobble cheezborger! Dobble cheezborger!" I swear he was putting the accent on for the visitors.
Once you have your order, just grab chips and a coke if you want them, and then throw on as much sauce, onions, and other bits and pieces you want yourself and sit down. Eat and then go. It's all over very quickly!
Great experience. Good burger.

Billy Goat Tavern: Billy Goat Tavern
Billy Goat Tavern has an exciting atmosphere that everyone should experience. Although being world famous, Billy Goat Tavern isn't a fancy restaurant by any means. The prices are very low, the menu is simple, and the food is good, but order atleast a double hamburger or you will still be hungry. The staff is friendly and the location at 430 North Michigan Avenue at the lower level is quite unique as you appear to be entering a subway on your way down to the restaurant. Overall, Billy Goat Tavern is worth a stop if you want a quick and simple bite of food and want to experience a big part of Chicago history.
Favorite Dish: The double cheeseburger with bacon on it is very tasty.

Billy Goat Tavern: Break the curse!
I don't have a picture of this one, someone had knocked the sign off, which is the only thing identifying where those steps lead... it is located just outside of the Marriotts Michigan Avenue entrance, and legend has it, that this place was owned by the gentlemen that cursed the Chicago Cubs baseball team after they would not let him watch a game with his goat in tow. A very unique place, with a very unique location. Don't be afriad, just walk down the steps....

If you watched "Saturday Night Live" when John Belushi was still alive, then you've heard the famous lines,"Cheezborger! Cheezborger! No fries, cheeps! No Pepsi, Coke!". This famous Saturday Night Live skit was inspired by the Billy Goat Tavern in Chicago, and John Belushi pretended to be the cook at this unique Greek "greasy spoon".
William Sianis (1895-1970) recognized an opportunity in 1934 when a goat fell off a truck and wandered into his original tavern at 1855 West Madison Street. Sianis had a court declare that the goat was legally his, and then adopted the goat's persona, growing a beard and calling himself "Billygoat" instead of William.
In 1964, the tavern relocated to Lower Michigan Avenue and became a reporters' hangout because it's close to the two newspapers here in Chicago. Because of the skit on TV, the tavern is now a tourist stop with its own T-shirts and hats. It also has become a chain with at least six locations.
Columnist Mike Royko came here and watched the Cubs lose games on TV . He wrote often about this tavern. Legend has it that Billygoat Sianis hexed the Cubs when his goat, WHOSE HEAD IS NOW MOUNTED ABOVE THE BAR, was not allowed in the 1945 World Series game at Wrigley Field.
Favorite Dish: This tavern is famous for it's Cheeseburgers, chips and Cokes. It was Julia Child who determined that toasted buns made the culinary difference at this subterranean institution. It also has cheap beer or straight drinks. But, it's the atmosphere that brings in the customers.

Billy Goat Tavern: Cheezborger cheezborger
The Billy Goat Tavern is a kitschy place- a combination of fast food and a diner and a definite attempt to capitalize on its notoriety from the Saturday Night Live skit. But its also a good place to get a cheap meal and to crack a smile at the antics of its staff,
This is a Chicago chain restaurant, with a Navy Pier and a downtown location. The menu is pretty simple, much like the SNL skit: cheeseburgers, roast beef sandwiches, chips and sodas. Food is ordered at the counter (at least it is in the downtown location) and served on wax paper in lieu of plates. You can take it to go or sit at one of the red and white checkered tables. In the evenings, this is a popular dive bar as well.
Lunch cost the equivalent to a fast food restaurant and was decent, although nothing worth traveling great distances to consume. I decided to try the roast beef, which was sadly nothing like an Italian Beef sandwich that I'd been wanting to try, but, other than that, no complaints. It was filling, I was satisfied and, while my artieries may have been a bit clogged, my wallet was not emptied.
Favorite Dish: I think the famous cheeseburger is more popular here than the roast beef. I didn't try it, so I can't comment, but they looked pretty good.

Billy Goat Tavern: Cheezborger! Cheezborger! No Fries, Cheeps!
Billy Goat Tavern is a Chicago legend. A favorite of locals and local columnists for years, it was made famous in the Saturday Night Live "Olympia Restaurant" skits by John Belushi, Dan Aykroyd, and Bill Murray, and its founder is also known as the reason for the Cubs curse. This place is definitely worth a stop just to get yelled at while ordering.
The original Billy Goat opened across the street from the old Chicago Stadium on Madison Ave. in 1934. It got its name because a goat fell off a truck on the street outside and wandered into the bar. Owner Bill Sianis, a Greek immigrant, adopted the goat and grew a goatee.
The curse of the Cubs is also Bill's doing. He bought 2 tickets to game 4 of the 1945 World Series between the Cubs and the Detroit Tigers - 1 for him and 1 for his goat. He was denied entry because the goat smelled. He then said "Cubs, they not gonna win anymore." When the Cubs lost the series, he sent a telegram to their owners which said "Who smells now?". And the rest is history - the Cubs haven't made it back to the World Series since.

The Billy Goat Tavern: Cheezeborger! Cheezeborger
"Cheezborger! Cheezborger! No fries, cheeps! No Pepsi, Coke!"
(Saturday Night Live skit)
Famously portrayed on "Saturday Night Live" in the mid-'70s, it's long been a local legend, since original owner William Sianis was forbidden by the Chicago Cubs to bring his goat into Wrigley Field during a 1945 World Series game. Sianis was thrown out and because of this, he put a curse on the Cubs so they would never again win a championship.
A popular newpaper writer hangout. Walls are plastered with blown-up bylines and numerous articles. (No wonder I was drawn to it!)
Because of its subterranean location beneath the Chicago Tribune Building, the present location of the Billy Goat has been an underground oasis for journalists and tradesmen seeking a break from sobriety during lunchtime and after work.
Legions of tourists also descend upon The Goat to get yelled at and to enjoy some of the best burgers in the city. As a result, the Billy Goat Tavern has become a true Chicago classic and required stopping point for both hungry locals and visitors wishing to gain some insight into the City that Works.
Favorite Dish: The burgers are great. I recommend the double-cheeseburger, since that is probably what you'll wind up with regardless of what you attempt to order. Part of their appeal is that they're served on a Kaiser roll. The other part: the best sandwich pickles in the city. Perhaps this is why, in 1999, Vlassic unveiled the world's largest pickle at The Goat – its likeness is encased in plastic on the counter, above the plastic donut case and next to the chip racks.
When your cheesburger is served to you, take the piece of wax paper holding your burger over to the condiment counter and load up with the aforementioned pickles, ketchup, mustard, onions, etc.
Breakfast is served from 7 a.m to 11 a.m. For those of you keeping score at home, the Billy Goat shuts at 2:00 a.m., leaving the city goat-less for only five hours each night.

They called us to say the flight was unavailable and they needed to refund the money and rebook. Oh, and get this, they said the refund was going to take 8 to 12 weeks! So effectively, they where going to DOUBLE charge me for the flight. Alas, after screaming on the phone for an hour, I finally got them to give me my original itenerary.
Although my daughter and wife took off on there trip without a hitch. That was not the end of my troubles. When my wife and daughter tried to board there international return flight, it turns out it was NEVER booked. I had buy an additional two tickets to get my family home. I have demanded a refund and so far I have been hung up on 3 times, and my case has been passed like a hot potato to three separate agents in the escalations department. I feel that I will have to file with my bank.
Never deal with this company as they do this same thing to other travelers hundreds of times a month! I think this is why they say the refund takes 8 to 12 weeks. This gives them the chance to scam someone else to pay off the pissed off people they rip off!

Defense Secretary Leon Panetta: DOD must implement 'prudent measures' to mitigate budget risk. (DOD photo)
The Defense Department's two top leaders on Jan. 10 instructed the military services to get serious about planning to major budget cuts, including a memo from Deputy Defense Secretary Ashton Carter with guidelines for addressing looming fiscal uncertainty.
Military agencies have received the green light to freeze civilian hiring, terminate temporary hires and reduce base operating funds. Also on the chopping block are expenses that could include business IT, according to the memo, which has been viewed by FCW. The measures regarding the workforce have already prompted a complaint from a federal employees' union.
Union complaint: DOD memo biased toward contractors
In the memo, Carter attributes the guidance to concerns about sequestration and the ongoing use of continuing resolutions.
"Given the overall budgetary uncertainty faced by the department, and in particular the immediate operational issues presented by the CR, it is prudent to take certain steps now in order to help avoid serious future problems. I therefore authorize all defense components to begin implementing measures that will help mitigate execution risks," the memo stated.
Carter also directed that any measures undertaken should be able to be undone in the case agreements are reached on Capitol Hill.
"For now, and to the extent possible, any actions taken must be reversible at a later date in the event that Congress acts to remove the risks I have described. The actions should be structured to minimize harmful effects on our people and on operations and unit readiness," Carter wrote.
Beyond personnel guidance, the memo permits the services to cut travel, training and conferences. It additionally includes within near-term measures the curtailment of "administrative expenses such as supply purchases, business IT, ceremonies, etc."
The outline also allows agency leaders to review contracts and studies for possible ways to cut costs or find savings. All research and development, as well as production and contract modifications, that obligate more than $500 million now are subject to clearance by the under secretary of defense for acquisition, technology and logistics prior to award, according to the report.
Officials also must provide the under secretary and the assistant secretary of defense for research and engineering with a budgetary impact assessment of fiscal uncertainty on research priorities for all science and technology accounts.
At a Jan. 10 Pentagon briefing, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta echoed the concerns Carter conveyed in the memo.
"While we appreciate the fact that both parties came together to delay sequester, the unfortunate thing is that sequester itself, and the sequester threat, was not removed. So the prospect of it happening again is undermining our ability to responsibly manage this department in the current fiscal year," Panetta said. "Regardless of what Congress does or fails to do, we still have an obligation to protect this country. So for that reason, I've asked the military services and the other components to immediately begin implementing prudent measures that will help mitigate our budget risk."
He noted a potential "perfect storm of budget uncertainty" in sequestration, the continuing resolutions and an impending debt ceiling debate.
"The fact is, looking at all three of those, we have no idea what the hell's going to happen. All told, this uncertainty, if left unresolved by the Congress, will seriously harm our military readiness," Panetta said.

@Thomas - hey dude you're just in procurement. You don't make the requirements, you simply execute a buy. It's not your job to decide what is/isn't a requirement. Leave that to those paid to do so and you do your job - buy what they tell you to buy.
While I can't imagine the DoD folks' talk bein' devoid a "sky's fallin" pulpit thumpin', it still brings t' mind the most important failin' of our current congress - the failure of the voters to nominate and select folks worthy of the position, and willing to actually do the job.
Decades of self-centered, IRRESPONSIBLE leadership has culminated to bring us to this.
From one perspective, the budget problem could be solved if the requirments situation were finally made realistic. In the current system we are still procuring cold war weapons. These could not be procured if the requirements were challenged, but as we all know, there is too much pressure not to do anything to cut multi billion dollar contracts. Requirements dictate what the military buy. In my over 45 years in defense procurment, I must say I have never heard a requirement challenged or totally cancelled due to lack of specific justification. Requirments documents are rarely specific and are broad as a barn. If they were forced to be specific, voiding something that does not make sense would be relatively simple. Threat and requirments go together and here the classification of information complicated things. If a threat no longer exists, the requirment can no longer be justified. Here we have a situation where the documentation of threats can be influenced by those in danger of losing funding if the threat was not the right threat. My bottom line is that the front end of the requirments process has been broken for over 60 years. President Eisenhower saw it and warned against it--maybe now is the time we have to get serious and fix it.
You know here we are in a crisis on budgeting, but yet have they ever considered the time we spend not getting paid or able to take comp time off. Comp time as they call it in the goverment is 1 hour for 1 hour worked after duty hours, while in the public sector thegoverment gives them a different rule time and a-half paid for any extra hours worked beside there 8 hours of work time. Now have you all ever considered that or we just suppose to be morons and never think about how we get screwed. This paper and every other media needs to seriously take a look at that, who is getting really making the money, when there is not real compensation for goverment employee's for overtime.

Designated AIDS Center wins state grant
SYRACUSE, N.Y. —The state Health Department has awarded a $662,500, five-year grant to the Designated AIDS Center (DAC) at Upstate Medical University to expand its capacity to provide hepatitis C care and treatment to patients who are co-infected with HIV and hepatitis C. The grant was awarded by the Health Department's AIDS Institute and Health Research Inc., which is supported by funding from the Ryan White Care Act. The DAC will use the funding to provide the patients with expanded hours of on-site services for mental health, alcohol/substance abuse, and nutrition counseling. These services are in addition to the DAC's medical care and social work services.
"Approximately 25 percent of our patients are co-infected with hepatitis C and approximately 60 percent of our patients have a mental health or substance use diagnosis or are mentally ill and chemically addicted," said Judith Rees, N.P., the center's program director.
"It is critical that our patients receive counseling to successfully adhere to their treatment programs. Better adherence leads to better health outcomes for patients, fewer hospitalizations and emergency room visits, the prevention of new HIV infections and a reduction of healthcare costs," she said.
The Designated AIDS Center provides HIV specialty and primary care to 863 adults and children in a 17-county region that covers 15,778 square miles. Upstate University Hospital has a full range of outpatient services available to people with HIV, including dental, ophthalmology, oncology, dermatology, and gynecology.

The article Meals on Wheels details what pro mountain biker Georgia Gould and pro road cyclist Phil Zajicek consume before, during and after training rides and races.
Personally, I was kind of struck by what I thought were pretty heavy breakfasts and relatively light dinners. I'm the exact opposite. I usually have a slice of toast with peanut butter, a banana and maybe half a Clif bar before an early ride or race. But after? Dinner is usually as big as I can afford. With lots of meat and greasy food. Maybe that's why they're professionals and I'm just having fun...
So what are some of your dietary decisions for big race/training days? Anything unusual?
For long training rides 4-6 hours I usually stick with a couple cups of oatmeal, 2 pieces of toast or Pop Tarts, and a glass (12 oz) of OJ. I may even throw in a glass of slimfast.
During long training, races, or 24 hour events I always had the old secret nutrition of my grandmothers banana bread.
Powerbars, gels, cytomax and water.
What a huge topic this is and important.
What to eat while on the bike needs to be complimented by what to drink while on the bike! First the level of exertion is key. This generally means is the ride time greater than or less than 2 hours. Now a days an electrolyte replacement drink is key and ingesting carbs in the proper ratio to protein helps to refuel you while riding and keep you going faster longer.
That is the short answer for now.
Check out Edmund R. Burke, Phd's book on recovery. Optimal Muscle Performance and Recovery. This book is exellent, period.

Live from Knoxville, Tenn., it's Colin Jost!
The Cultural Attractions Committee (CAC) welcomed Jost, co-head writer and cast member of the National Broadcasting Company (NBC)'s popular sketch show "Saturday Night Live" (SNL).
Jost put on a show discussing his family, upbringing, social issues and rejected sketch pitches, on Tuesday in the Cox Auditorium of the Alumni Memorial Building (AMB).
Jost was hired as a writer for the series in 2005 at age 22, just after graduating from Harvard University, and made his on-screen debut in March 2014, taking over for former cast member Seth Meyer's position on the show's weekly segment, "Weekend Update."
The popular sketch parody of a live news report began in 1975 with comedian Chevy Chase, and has been passed on to other famous comedians including Norm MacDonald, who Jost has expressed was extremely influential in his career, and Tina Fey and Amy Poehler as "co-anchors."
Freshman Emilie Morath and sophomore Kyra Jones's favorite parts were Jost revealing his rejected sketch ideas, and Jost reading some "Fun Facts" about UT from his phone sent in by audience members.
"Fun fact #1: UT Dining just implemented a plan where all students have to have a meal plan, even if you don't live on campus. This adds more money to our tuition that a lot of people won't even use at our dining areas," he said.
Madeline Lewis waited in line for over 20 minutes after the show to take a picture with Jost during his "meet and greet" session.
"It was interesting to see how he is compared to a scripted SNL series as opposed to his stand-up bits," said Lewis, a freshman at UT.
Jost also had the audience participate in a "shout out" to two of his SNL colleagues and UT alumni, James Anderson and Paula Pell, by filming a short video of everyone shouting, "We love you, James and Paula!"
Nashville native Chris Killian was Jost's opening act, and he got the audience laughing almost immediately by incorporating country music into his routine.
Jost posted on Twitter and Instagram later saying, "Had such an awesome show at UT in Knoxville tonight! Thank you guys for coming out! #peytonmanning"

From the Inside Flap
Libby's family moves to Northern Michigan where she is reunited with her best friend, Fawn, whose family now lives there with the Ottawa tribe. The girls' happiness is short lived when they find out that greedy men are trying to cheat the Indians out of their land. Now Libby and Fawn must think of a way to stop them--before the forest is lost forever.
About the Author
Gloria and her husband Joseph moved from Detroit to the woods of northern Michigan several years ago. Many of Gloria's books take place during the summer -- because she does a lot of her writing during the northern Michigan blizzards! Gloria has been telling stories for as long as she can remember. Before she could read or write, she used to dictate stories to her baby-sitter, who would type them out. Being an only child, many of Gloria's stories were about having a brother or sister. Gloria would like to have written Little Women, because Jo March was one of her role models growing up! Gloria once had a set of five guinea pigs, all named after Detroit Tiger baseball players!

Where to purchase animals :D
Over a year ago
Hi! I'm new 😀 I was wondering where the best place to buy animals would be? I know there's a lot of talk about not buying them from pet stores, but why is that? And what about breeders? Are animal shelters the best bet?
Please log in to reply.

Bad advice do not buy animals from pet stores or breeders just because you feel bad for them. They will only be replaced with another mistreated animal.You must be logged in to reply to this topic.
Over a year ago
Animal shelters use the money thou spend on adopting an animal, on other animals there.
But its sad, because pet stores don't treat their animals right. and breeders usually send the ones they can't sell to animal shelters.
So maybe buy from a pet store, or a breeder, but always donate to the shelters ?
Both my cats come from the shelter.You must be logged in to reply to this topic.

Yes animal shelters are the best bet even for any odd sorts of companion animal like pigs, bunnies, rats, etc. You can always look online like petfinder.com to see most of the available animals in local shelters and rescues.
Any form of breeding animals is bad. Even "responsible" small scale breeders mean that shelter animals have to die. Pet stores are bad because animals come from puppy mills and other nasty animal suppliers.

An Extensible Viewer for your Personal Finances
A helpful Perl script gives you an immediate overview of your financial status, adding the balances of multiple accounts and share depots. It even allows users to add their own plugins.
Contrary to popular belief, rich people are not unhappier than people without a penny to their names. You can hear the sighs of relief all over the country – gone are the fears of wealth-induced miserliness. And for the first time in years, people again dare to check their financial status. Read on to find out how. With the exception of a few eccentrics who prefer to horde their wealth under the floorboards of their villas, people are increasingly turning to programs such as Gnucash to manage their accounts and depots. Account management programs help you tidy up your accounts, giving you neat formatting or even graphical output. This said, the open source tools are still very much in the vein of Quicken and Microsoft Money and entail a lot of highly disciplined work.

I keep getting this error (with different numbers/files/lines) in the dashboard widgets. I also get it when I try to upgrade WP from within the admin panel (as opposed to manually via ftp), and sometimes (but not always) if I try to install or upgrade a plugin.
Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 22282240) (tried to allocate 1245184 bytes) in /home/homework/public_html/wp-includes/class-simplepie.php on line 5410
As far as I can tell, there is no one specific plugin causing the problem. If I uninstall enough of them, the problem goes away, but it doesn't seem to matter which ones. Once or twice it got bad enough that the errors appeared on the public side of the blog.
The errors don't make sense to me, for several reasons.
1) The amount of memory allocated is often, if not always, greater than the amount the system says it attempted.
2) By default, I should have 32MB memory. This was confirmed by my host, and by a memory-usage plugin.
3) The memory-usage plugin says my highest usage was 21.72. Obviously, this is less than 32 MB, so I shouldn't have an issue.
4) Even with the adjustments from this page, or similar ones suggested elsewhere, used to bump up the allowable memory to 128MB, I still get the errors. Even if it did, I think this would be a "band-aid" fix, rather than a real solution.
There seems to be some kind of bug, or database error, or something besides plain old memory usage. Can anyone shed some light on this, or tell me where I might start to find some real answers? (I have talked to my host. The host's conclusion was the same as mine - that it isn't a memory issue, but a bug or something.)
If it helps any, I have several other WP blogs with the same host, and none of them have this problem. (None of them have quite as many plugins, either, but they do all have multiple plugins.)

Also, I was really leery because im in finacial need as it is and id much rather not take loans out im afraid i wouldnt be able to pay back. I didnt even get my award letter untill last friday and found out my finacial aid was only 8,000 and i would have to take out a loan of 10,000 to pay for school. So, sunday i wrote a letter to everyone of my grad team letting them know i have decided to not attend school there. I have not accepted any of my loans or finacial aid. I have not did any course work i was supposed to start today. I have not made any contact with fellow students. My concern is even though they told me as long as i dont make any contact with fellow students or courses am i in the clear or will i get scamed to like everyone else?

Here's why. It's ALL ABOUST SALES with GCU!
AUTHOR: mike.sheppard91 - (USA)
SUBMITTED: Saturday, June 04, 2011POSTED: Saturday, June 04, 2011
Sales and numbers is something that in business, you can never distance yourself from completely. This organization has tried to be transparent enough to demonstrate and perpetrate as if they are not putting the pressure on you to buy.but just like the pressure you experienced.all of the counselors there know they are on a stock tht is sinking because it is nearly worthless within the for-profit industry.and that is transferred most likely into stress in their voices over the phone as they press to sell-sell-sell!!! or lose their jobs. Good luck.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

"I was under a time crunch, so I literally just used one of the templates available, I would normally change things, colors, etc. but did not have time. My order came quickly, and I was completely satisfied with the quality and design of my invitation. Very easy and effortless process!"
"I really loved the quality of this invitation. The card stock was a nice, heavy weight, and it was nicely textured. I liked the scrollwork design at the top that presented a classic, traditional look, yet the print layout gave it a more modern touch. The wording was traditional and conveyed all the right information. I was able to customize it enough to make the print a little larger than the sample. My only minor disappointment was that I couldn't change the colors of the print and the scrollwork design. There was only one other color option. Also, I wasn't wild about the large word "dinner", but it did look fine in the end. I was very satisfied with the invitation and the great customer service from Wedding Paper Divas."
"The design is perfect for the summer evening rehearsal dinner we've planned. Text font changes are easy and the placecards add elegant whimsy to the tables."
"Worked with 2 different people to get the product just right. Both were extremely helpful, friendly and gave good advice. I was able to get several proofs of different options which made the final decision so much easier. I would use them again."
"I chose the navy blue card with silver lettering. The paper had a subtle metallic sheen which made it look very elegant. I added a scripture on the back, which looked very nice. I also liked the rounded edges."

Skip to comments.Santa Fe Jail Shields Its Prisoners From ICE
Posted on 05/26/2010 8:42:40 PM PDT by CedarDave
While those serving time in the Santa Fe County jail can't wait to get out, federal immigration officials are just trying to get in.
But the jail's director contends U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement authorities racially profile inmates, and until that stops the welcome mat outside the facility will continue to read: No pasarán.
ICE officials insist they are not racially profiling anyone. And they say Santa Fe's refusal to allow them to interview prisoners is hindering their efforts to determine which ones might be here illegally.
ICE spokeswoman Leticia Zamarripa says it would make sense for the jail to contact federal immigration authorities when it comes to some illegal immigrants who are about to be released or bond out, but that the jail is under no legal requirement to do so.
"They're not violating the law," she said. "But it's in the community's best interest for them to contact us. That way we don't have a convicted murderer or convicted rapist out on the street."
Albuquerque Mayor Richard Berry, just this month, implemented a new policy under which the immigration status of anyone arrested by city police is checked by ICE when they are booked at the prisoner transport station.
But in Santa Fe, jail practices and law enforcement policies remain immigrant-friendly to the extent of shielding many of those arrested from immigration authorities.
That frustrates ICE officials, who say that not only are they not allowed to interview inmates at the Santa Fe County jail, but the lockup doesn't always honor ICE "detainers" for inmates who may have violated immigration law.
(Excerpt) Read more at abqjournal.com ...
Albuquerque, OTOH, elected a Republican mayor earlier this year who reversed the previous Democrats sanctuary city policy and now requires an immigration check of all who are arrested for crimes.
Bunch of liberal loons.
Santa Fe is where extremist, liberal lunatics go once they finally go over the edge and think that they've become Indians.
There are billions of dollars at stake with the drug cartels and human trafficing. I'm sure they have greased the skids to the point that many are willing to sell out the safety and wellbeing of their fellow Americans.
Failure to obey/enforce the law is grounds to fire these bastards.
Cost them their jobs and let's see how dedicated to the cause they really are.
Arizona wants to collect illegals for ICE, because ICE complains they are too busy to look for them themselves, and ICE tells them to F*** off.
ICE wants to go into New Mexico jails and look for illegals THERE, and New Mexico tells ICE to F*** off.
Can't anyone see why we need to get the liberals out of power? At every level? Federal, state and local?
Now that is humor in a jugular vein.
This is more than liberal lunacy. There are vast amounts of money involved in drugs and human trafficking. Someone has got to local officials with a whole lot of money.
Damn, that was funny.
If these cops don't want to do their job and ENFORCE THE LAW there are lots of unemployed Americans that will gladly replace them.
NM list PING!
(The NM list is available on my FR homepage for anyone to use. Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the list.)
"But the jail's director contends U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement authorities racially profile inmates, and until that stops the welcome mat outside the facility will continue to read: No pasarán."
That's a pretty odd statement since most all prisons and jails divide and house inmates based on race. Prisoners, even if they aren't racists, tend to stick with their own races. The jailers encourage this racial segregation because they'd have constant riots if they didn't. Jailers "racially profile" on a daily basis.
Thanks for the ping (I think.... hate to read something like this, just before bed.)
I hope we can get someone that prefers America and Americans to Mexico and Mexicans in the Governor's office soon.
The City of Santa Fe is beyond help, beyond redemption, as are some of the legislative districts, but if we can soon get someone besides a carpetbagging opportunist who maintains his emotional allegiance to his native Mexico as governor, maybe this state won't completely self-destruct.
Sometimes it just feels like we're fighting a losing battle. Maybe I need a couple of weeks of no news to recharge my batteries.
Now you can see why under the AZ law private citizens can sue if the authorities refuse to do their duty. The Santa Fe County Jail is a sanctuary.
Moscow on the Rio Grande was my description of Santa Fe....
The people that run Santa Fe are such idiots I doubt anyone had to bribe them. They are liberal nut cases to the max and truly believe in open borders and amnesty for all the downtrodden illegals. They also want their housekeepers, nannies, and gardeners to be cheap and subservient.
It really is liberal lunacy. Santa Fe is little Hollywood or at least it tries real hard. Just do a quick read of this gossip blog-
My son did his government police training in Albuqueque with their police. Each trainer had "kills" of criminals. Says a lot about that city which has been turned into a shithole of criminality.
Hope the new mayor can save it from itself.
Amem to that, FRiend!
