Taken by good friend and fellow Guillain Barre CIDP Fatality Collision One vehicle has rolled off of US 395 8 miles N of Spokane and rolled into a yard on Ballard. Highway patrol is on scene. No other details are known at this time. 6:50am Years ago I said the internet was a fad. Nobody listened because they were just getting used to it......well mark this down. The internet will be as gone as week old bread in 3 years. Someone did a study showing about 50 percent of Americans now believe Facebook is a fad...it is. Something else will come along.. eventually minds will be saturated with meaningless "stuff" and advertising for products most cannot afford. When advertising takes over, folks drop out like flies. So take adverts and pure boredom and you have a mix that says...Hey let's take the family to the beach" Electric Magazine was a bulletin board system I wrote in 1982. It was among the very first ways for personal computers to talk with each other. Up till then only business did this...and back when Electric Magazine was going strong, only 10 percent of US households owned computers...in that time I made 30 thousand dollars in a year. Can you imagine the car I would be driving now if I had continued. Fortunately I discovered that computers take over folks lives and indeed it is written that this will happen but that's on a religious note and another story. Suffice it to say that it is better for you to enjoy the world around you and stop computing... of course this means nothing for me to do in my "retirement" but that's ok. I'm getting real tired of doing this anyway....I have maybe a good year left in computing and then its off to the warmer climates where there is no broadband and only land lines.....oh yes.. we disconnected cell phones last week...preparation? No... just saving money. Folks only text anyway and it cost 100 plus a month to read instead of talking which is much better communications thank you.

A University of Montana study published this week in the international journal Climate Change discovered that late-summer streamflows have decreased in the western United States over the past half century because of higher air temperatures and earlier spring runoff. Scientists examined 50 years of U.S. Geological Survey streamflow data on 153 streams in Montana, Idaho and Wyoming. They found that 89 percent of the streams experienced substantial declines in streamflow by August, likely as a result of longer and warmer summer temperatures. If this trend continues into the next half century, small streams in the central Rocky Mountains could start to run dry by late summer, the study said.

It's Squirrel Day and Ricks Pic Wins! The Cardinal Newman Society has sent an open letter to Georgetown University President John DeGioia strongly urging him to not allow U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius to speak during Georgetown’s Commencement. The organization’s objection based on Sebelius’ support for requiring employers — including schools and universities — to provide access to contraceptive coverage in employee and student health plans. Currently, the letter has garnered 27,000 signatories. “It is scandalous and outrageous that America’s oldest Catholic and Jesuit university has elected to provide this prestigious platform to a publicly’ pro-choice’ Catholic,” the group wrote. The letter also says that bestowing the honor of speaking at Georgetown commencement to Sebelius, “insults all Americans… especially [it insults] faithful Catholics and their bishops, who are engage in the fight for religious liberty against abortion.” DeGioia has also come under fire from the top archbishop in the Washington, DC area, Cardinal Donald Wuerl. The Cardinal Newman Society, according to its website, was founded in 1993 to, “help renew and strengthen Catholic identity in Catholic higher education.” Bob's Cheney Squirrel DATE: 20120516 TIME: 0830 INV

MOIESE – Prolonged efforts by the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes to be a part of the management and operation of the National Bison Range located on their reservation are again moving forward. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has issued a notice that an environmental assessment will be written regarding CSKT’s desire to enter into an annual funding agreement for operations and maintenance of certain programs and activities at the Bison Range complex. The last funding agreement was shot down in a federal courtroom in Washington, D.C., in 2010, essentially because that step wasn’t followed by the federal government prior to a 2008 funding agreement between the FWS and the tribes.

Active-duty military personnel and their families received the keys to a national trove of treasured lands on Tuesday when the Department of the Interior swung open the gates to all national parks in a gesture of appreciation. As a token of gratitude to America’s service men and women, and at the behest of U.S. Sen. Jon Tester, D-Mont., Secretary of Interior Ken Salazar introduced the “America the Beautiful” pass, which grants service members free admission to Glacier and Yellowstone national parks, as well as more than 2,000 other National Park Service sites and other public lands across the country – including 55 in Montana. The pass will be made available to all members of the military and their dependents beginning Saturday, May 19, to commemorate Armed Forces Day.
