From Town Character to Cartoon Icon: Segar thought back to his
boyhood in the Illinois town of Chester, a little county-seat
community sitting proudly atop a bluff overlooking the
Mississippi River south of St. Louis. Like all the kids in town,
Segar had been mesmerized listening to the astonishing tales
told by Frank ‘Rocky’ Fiegal. Rocky was the town character.
And that was putting it mildly. In a region known for colorful
coots, Rocky stood out from the pack.

Texas to deploy inflatable border along Rio Grande River in Eagle Pass: According to a press release from Abbott’s office, the strategy of placing an inflatable barrier along the border will “proactively prevent illegal crossings between ports of entry by making it more difficult to cross the Rio Grande and reach the Texas side of the southern border.”

Oil and pipeline companies are backing a ‘water quality restoration’ project in North America’s biggest swamp. “The idea that this is an experimental project is absurd because we’ve done this numerous times.” Louisiana activists say the East Grand Lake river diversion will smother part of the Atchafalaya Basin, creating new land for fossil energy development in the process.

Iowa’s Industrial Hog Farms Are Killing the State’s Fish With Animal Waste and Agrochemicals: Agriculture is the lifeblood of Iowa, but it also contributes to mass die-offs of fish in the state’s waterways. Iowa is one of the top 10 agricultural states in the country. It is the nation’s leading producer of corn, a commodity whose productivity depends heavily on fertilizer. It is also the nation’s largest hog producer. Nearly one-third of the nation’s hogs are raised in Iowa, with the collateral effect of generating thousands of tons of animal waste or manure.

For GOP, Debt Ceiling Deal Was Never About Debt, It Was About Conserving Power: The real interests of the Republican Party in these negotiations, however were not actually about spending, or the national debt, or even about pushing an anti-government platform. Rather, they were about consolidating power and wealth for those who already have it, from corporations and the wealthy to the U.S. itself on the global stage.

Why did the right-leaning supreme court hand Democrats a victory? Perhaps they know they need to preserve whatever is left of their legitimacy.

Atlanta City Council is hell-bent on building a $70 million police playground. It’s the last thing the city needs: Funding for Atlanta’s “Cop City,” the community-given nickname for a police training facility in DeKalb County, Georgia, has been approved by the city council in an 11-4 vote.

CIA’s Role in the Study of UFOs, 1947-90: In late 1993, after being pressured by UFOlogists for the release of additional CIA information on UFOs, (3) DCI R. James Woolsey ordered another review of all Agency files on UFOs. Using CIA records compiled from that review, this study traces CIA interest and involvement in the UFO controversy from the late 1940s to 1990. It chronologically examines the Agency’s efforts to solve the mystery of UFOs, its programs that had an impact on UFO sightings, and its attempts to conceal CIA involvement in the entire UFO issue. What emerges from this examination is that, while Agency concern over UFOs was substantial until the early 1950s, CIA has since paid only limited and peripheral attention to the phenomena.
