Great Falls police arrest man after high speed pursuit ends in crash | Water Trough

"These crates are very small and they can’t turn around in them so all they can do is stand up, lie down and maintain a posture looking straight ahead. Very small, very restricted movement and they get very frustrated in there."

The day after I visited the bird hospital, I left Delhi by car, on a road that follows the Yamuna River south and east, away from its icy source among the serrated ridges of the Himalayas. Delhi’s sewage has blackened long stretches of the Yamuna, making it one of the world’s most polluted rivers. From the road, I could see plastic bottles floating on its surface. In India, where rivers have a special place in the spiritual imagination, this is a metaphysical defilement.

Nasa is aiming to develop a suit which allows for long-term spacesuit usage and complete independent disposal of human waste.

The singing grew louder until it verged on ecstatic. The pilgrims raised their arms and clapped overhead, faster and faster. A climax seemed to loom, but then it all dropped away. The drums and the bells and the cymbals went quiet, leaving a clear sonic space that was filled by a final blow on a conch.

I have a wonderful neighbor named Bruce. Whenever I pass his driveway, thoughts occur to me, such as: I was driving in Winona when I came to a four-way stop. People are so good at taking turns at these intersections, especially in the Upper Midwest. Each driver’s head was on a swivel. Sometimes, we become too kind and patient, if that’s possible, and nobody wants to go first. The last shall be the first. I was about to take my proper turn, when another car jumped ahead of me in line, making two cars in a row leaving from the same stop sign on a two-lane road. My eyebrows collided. I and another driver at a third stop sign had been in our places before the line jumper had arrived. I was appalled. Rules don’t apply to everyone, not even to a clown car unburdened with clowns. I couldn’t believe a fellow Minnesotan would treat me that way. I was relieved when I saw that the offending vehicle carried out-of-state license plates.

Notably, the 10 states that have banned gestation crates house less than 7 percent of the 68 million pigs living in the US. Iowa, North Carolina, and Minnesota, which together house more than half of the country’s pigs, still allow crates. Iowa and North Carolina also have “ag-gag” laws that impose civil or criminal sanctions on activists who seek or gain employment with an eye to exposing animal mistreatment.

In some cases, pilots—many of whom are engineers and academy graduates—claimed to observe small spherical objects flying in formation. Others say they’ve seen white, Tic Tac–shaped vehicles. Aside from drones, all engines rely on burning fuel to generate power, but these vehicles all had no air intake, no wind and no exhaust.

"In Farm Sanctuary’s 30-year history of rescuing mother pigs, we’ve found them to be nurturing, caring mothers, who do not crush or otherwise harm their babies," Baur said. "Like other factory farming equipment, the farrowing crate reflects an attitude that commodifies sentient life and treats living feeling creatures like inanimate production units."

Anyone not complying with the law will face up to a $5000 fine, or in the case of a body corporate, a fine up to $25,000.
