Can We Learn Something, Anything From Candice Berner’s Tragic Death?
by Tom RemingtonMarch 18, 2010
It appears we are stuck on stupid when it comes to dealing with wild animals. Like a dangerous intersection, how many tragedies need to take place before someone figures out that having vehicles traveling toward each other from four different directions can be a potentially deadly circumstance? To avoid traffic fatalities we control the traffic.
Young Candice Berner died a tragic death, being mauled by wolves in a tiny remote village on the Kenai in Alaska. As calamitous as her death, the repetitive talking points still prevail; rare occurrence, can’t understand it, what did the victim do wrong, we must learn to live with predators, too many humans, it’s all our fault, etc.
People’s love for wild animals, much based on false information about the animal’s habits, have become so perverted it seems some are more interested in keeping these truths from the general public out of fear of tarnishing their precious image of a savage predator, at the price of a human life. It’s easy to blow off the event when it doesn’t directly affect you. For some it hit very close to home.
It’s time to move beyond fantasy land. How can environmentalists/animal lovers/anti-hunters expect people to “learn to live with wolves” when they refuse to allow the truth about their behavior to be presented? This is beyond disgusting.

Tenth Amendment Push Backs Spreading Across America
by Tom RemingtonMarch 17, 2010
Is this all a case of too little too late or are there any legal teeth in the growing actions of states all across the Union in passing legislation that in effect tells the federal government to take a hike?
On this very blog, I have been vigilant in posting information about states proposing, passing and signing legislation in attempts to nullify federal authority of gun control laws forced onto them. But this push back we are witness to is now reaching beyond the Second Amendment. States are passing bills declaring the federal government can’t force them to “buy into” federal run health care. Utah has effectively told the federal government it’s taking back some of it’s lands. Other states don’t want anything to do with federal ID cards, they’re ignoring federal marijuana laws, have put the feds on notice that their local police departments have more authority than they do and that National Guard troops can be recalled by states.
These are just some samples of a movement that has at least 26 states proposing, passing or signing “Firearms Freedom” bills that tell the federal government to back off. This spreading action is a pretty good indication that states are fed up with an overreaching federal government but will it do any good? More importantly does any of this hold any legal strength? The New York Times has more.
It is unfortunate that Americans have sat by essentially doing nothing while states’ rights have been usurped. It is obvious the stealing of rights has gone too far and some want to reclaim that power and sovereignty. Only time and years of litigation can answer many of the questions. The immediate affect might come at the polls in November.

No Meat Day In Michigan = No Brains Either
by Tom RemingtonMarch 17, 2010
Declaring a day of no meat eating by the governor of Michigan is about equal to declaring a boycott on buying clothes for a day. Stuck on stupid, political leaders can’t figure out the difference between an agenda and an act to memorialize an occasion, a person or an event even if it hit them side the head.

Planning My Future
by Tom RemingtonMarch 16, 2010
I’m sure most of you don’t know that I am a closet “artist”. I am particularly fond of body art. For those not familiar with body art, picture a swarm of about 300 men and women, all naked taking turns painting each other…….all over. That’s my idea of body art. Tattoos are too permanent and most people don’t get naked to get a tattoo………do they?
I have had this inner welling of artistic power nagging at me since I first viewed body art at the age of about 15. So, you can imagine how elated I felt when I heard Speaker Nancy Pelosi say that if we pass this health care bill, people like me could quit their real jobs and become artists; pursue their dreams.
Although I haven’t stepped out yet and purchased enough supplies to paint up 300 or more naked bodies, I’m anxiously awaiting the day I can quit toiling over a real job and get everything I need in life for free. From that moment on, I’ll have no distractions and I can further my real passion as a body artist.
Isn’t America amazing?

Dateline 1922: The Arctic Ocean Is Warming. Seals Finding Water Too Hot
by Tom RemingtonMarch 16, 2010
This is quite interesting:
The Arctic ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarcer and in some places the seals are finding the water too hot, according to a report to the Commerce Department yesterday from Consul Ifft, at Bergen, Norway.
Reports from fishermen, seal hunters and explorers, he declared, all point to a radical change in climate conditions and hitherto unheard-of temperatures in the Arctic zone. Exploration expeditions report that scarcely any ice has been met with as far north as 81 degrees 29 minutes. Soundings to a depth of 3,100 meters showed the gulf stream still very warm.
Great masses of ice have been replaced by moraines of earth and stones, the report continued, while at many points well known glaciers have entirely disappeared. Very few seals and no white fish are found in the eastern Arctic, while vast shoals of herring and smelts, which have never before ventured so far north, are being encountered in the old seal fishing grounds.
This is only part of the whole story. Watts up With That has the entire story. Much worth reading.
