Viking Orion: Peek inside Viking Cruises’ latest ship in photo tour | Roof Sheet Curving Machine

Dr. Voss was demonstrating to my vet class how to castrate horses standing up (the horse, I mean). “Reach up between his legs and grasp the testicles. Inject the local anesthetic into the cord. Then stop and wait a couple minutes,” he instructed. “So the anesthetic will have time to take effect,” interjected the A-student gunner. “No,” said Dr. Voss, “So you can quit shakin’!”

And, he stressed, it is humane since they won’t have to go through the agony of getting injured in the first place. He says that a gimpy dog will be more cautious around kicking cows, truck tires, bangin’ chutes and cattle alleys. They can get right down to business.

We were waiting at the Tri County Airport when Mac dipped his wing and skidded down the runway. He crawled out on the wing. I noticed his hair was standing on end. He looked like he’d been castrating pigs in a metal building. You could almost hear his ears ringing. His eyes were glassy, his voice hoarse and he was vibrating.

The next fall we worked the cattle again and the conception was down to 90%. Albert had been right. I learned a lesson and set about seeking an answer. I must say that infertility and abortion in big herds is very difficult to confirm. I went through the testable disease: vibrio, lepto, IBR, poison plants, selenium, foothill abortion, metabolic disorders and finally Trichamoniasis.

"For easier road transportation, we split the generator-rotor into a main central part with a pre-assembled main bearing unit and two smaller separate sections.

Gold #22 – Head down stairs into Super Spesh’s secret room. Be careful, there is an Ubercommander down there. Once he is dealt with the gold is on a shelf just inside the room.

The Skyline closed on June, 1985, and by the end of the 1980s Gateshead was also gone. The Westside drive in at Rutherford came and went, and the only remaining valley drive-in – one of just a few in NSW – is the Heddon Greta drive-in which opened in 1967. 

Commenter: PJThat story above is NOTHING compared to the corruption and the lengths that Sallie Mae will go to. They defaulted my loan in error while I was still in school, took back the loan and quietly tacked on over $36,000 in collection fees. I didnt find this out for over 5 years. By then the collection fees ONLY – ballooned to over $72,000. Went to consolidate -they would not take them off – EVEN THOUGH THEY RECOGNIZED THEY MADE THE ERROR OF THE DEFAULT IN THE FIRST PLACE. I was studying to be a chiropractor. Then after I graduated, I thought I would rent an office and open a practice – NOT – I COULDN’T RENT AN OFFICE BECAUSE THEY HAD PUT THE DEFAULT ON MY CREDIT REPORT – NO ONE WOULD RENT TO ME. So I was stuck for all those years working for pennies for someone else struggling to pay. Tried to get a lawyer to fight it all only to find out that it has to be a lawyer that can arbitrate in federal court. I have talked to every single lawyer that I found out can do this only to be told by EVERY FIRM that they couldnt take the case. WHY???? because of a conflict of interest. Apparently, Sallie Mae has these firms doing work for them so they won’t have to even entertain the cases. CLEVER HUH? Getting garnished by Sallie Mae, PJ

Commenter: CarolIn looking for a college for my son, I was told by all of the private colleges that several thousands of dollars in student loans each year was what they expected each student to be willing to do in order to attend their school. When I explained that I was looking for my son (with some help from us) to be able to pay as he went and not go into debt (he had a 3.93 GPA and high SAT scores), I was told by one of the schools that he must not value his education if he wasn’t willing to borrow the extra 10K that we would have needed to come up with for him to attend that particular school. The problem isn’t just predatory lenders, it is also colleges who expect their students to graduate with tens of thousands worth of debt from their institutions. On the financial aid packages that were offered to my son they even list the loans as part of the financial aid that they are offering. This isn’t financial aid it is DEBT. The colleges should not be listing it as part of their financial aid package. The only exception should be for the subsidized loan, which has special rules so that the student can afford to pay it back and not increase how much they are indebted by it while in college or unemployed.

Up that 400 block, downstairs from Tony’s Lounge and Bar in the Priess Hotel building (think the parking lot of Worden’s Market), an "alkathon" is going on. It began at 3 p.m. and will last until midnight on Christmas in the club room of Alcoholics Anonymous.

Commenter: Afraid of the GovernementI like Al-Qaeda more than I like Sallie Mae or the US Dept of Education.

After Tomorrow’s success they released their debut album Frogstomp, which went on to become the first Australian album since INXS to hit the US top 10.
