Skip to comments.Questions tear at those who knew two slain Little Falls teens
Posted on 11/26/2012 9:37:12 AM PST by Uncle Chip
On the outskirts of Little Falls, Minn., Crystal Shaeffel walked down the long driveway on Sunday, past the "keep out" sign, to see the house where her teenage brother and her cousin were shot to death on Thanksgiving Day.
She was met in the driveway by the brother of Byron David Smith, the man who is in the Morrison County Jail on suspicion of second-degree murder after telling deputies he shot the pair when they broke into his house, where he lived alone. He is to make his first court appearance on Monday.
The bodies of Nicholas Brady, 17, and his cousin Haile Kifer, 18, both of Little Falls, were discovered on Friday when authorities began investigating a missing-persons report and after a car parked down the road from Smith's home prompted a neighbor to report suspicions that something was wrong.
A series of break-ins had made Byron Smith, a 64-year-old retired U.S. State Department worker, frustrated and fearful, his brother said Sunday.
In the rear of the house, which sits on the bank of the Mississippi River, surrounded by tall pines and birches, is a shattered bedroom window, now boarded over. It was where, Bruce Smith said, the teens used a lead pipe to break the glass, crawl in, walk down a hallway and go downstairs, surprising Byron Smith as he tinkered in his basement workshop over the lunch hour.
Byron Smith never called 911 but let the bodies lay in his home for just more than 24 hours while the teens' families tried to find them. Bruce Smith said his brother was distraught and didn't know what to do.
(Excerpt) Read more at startribune.com ...
Need a picture of a "Sympathy Meter" pegged at zero.
Lets leave the blame out of this for a minute.
This woman walked past a "Keep Out" sign toward a house where her two brothers were shot.
That doesn't appear too bright to me.
What part of "keep out" doesn't she understand? The same part her brothers didn't understand/ According to the story they broke into the mans home and were found dead there.
You come into my home and you might get shot too, but I would call the police right after. Don;t know what's with that—him not calling immediately I mean.
damn. home of Lindbergh. just down the road from my old stomping ground.. Little Falls was always a quiet little town as I recall.. sad to see the community caught up amidst such affairs but it is not uncommon across the land.. sounds like drugs played a role, the shooter/victim may have had issues as well.. CSI:Brainerd time.
Doesn't make sense to wait 24 hours but it sounds like it was a justifiable shooting.
Of course the family members are saying they were good kids. Good kids don't break into peoples homes.
After reading the story, this looks like a clear cut case of self defense. It appears to me that a junkie girl talked her male cousin into breaking into a man's home and they both died for it. Then the sister of the male burglar takes the press to harass the brother of the victim (the man in jail for defending his life and home) and goes on to do the white trash version of "They wuz such goood boyz"
Time to set up the evidence as self-defense?
I remember a similar incident 41 years ago near Tulsa, OK. Some teens left school at lunch and broke into a bait shop. The owner came back from lunch and seeing the break in, he went in shooting.
No charges were pressed against him even though one teen was killed.
Well, never any way to be sure in these cases, but maybe he waited a whole day to report it because he was seriously worried what to do—afraid that the liberal authorities in Minnesota would probably try him for murder, and put him through endless legal hell.
Not that waiting a day would help, but it's not always easy to stay cool in such a terrible situation.
Time to relocate the rest of his firearms and ammo, so that only the weapon USED IN SELF DEFENSE, gets confiscated.
*** but I would call the police right after.***
***A series of break-ins had made Byron Smith, a 64-year-old retired U.S. State Department worker,***
Maybe he was afraid IT would be blamed on a YOU TUBE video.
Well, it's not as if he drug them out of the house and hung them from the front gate as a fair warning to the other Yutes. I've often wondered what would happen to a homeowner who did that?
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
they won an all-expenses paid trip to see St.Peter.
Heh... I have sometimes wondered what I would do in a similar situation where I blow away a home intruder. Would I call the cops, or just dispose of the body so as not to get involved in a bunch of paperwork, police interviews, possible revenge by the perp's thug family, possible prosecution by a liberal Democrat prosecutor (and all the attorney costs that would come with it), etc.
You know... I'd probably burn the body.
That wield be a good way to ensure your prosecution to the max. I assume you know this and are being a tad blustery.
"Play stupid games, win stupid prizes."
Exactly. Once you've crossed that line - someone's property line - you lose most of the benefit of doubt about your intentions. I doubt that they were polite to the homeowner whom they were intending to rob, or worse.
Money quote -
"Yes, she had an addiction problem and stuff, but that doesn't mean she deserves to get murdered at 18 years old," Shaeffel said. "I understand they came there to rob them, or whatever, but shoot them in the shoulder and call the cops."
I don't think some younger folks have a grip on personal property, private property rights and the idea that something called Laws apply to all of us.
OH, and the English shows a Public Skool edukashun.
More here with pictures:
Minnesota law stipulates that individuals are permitted to use deadly force when defending their homes, but authorities said that there was evidence to suggest that Smith may have gone beyond self defense.
A person has every right to defend themselves and their homes, even employing deadly force if necessary, Morrison County Sheriff Michel Wetzel said in a news release. Circumstances of this case however, led deputies to believe that Smith went beyond that point.
Byron Smith was arrested after he told police officers of the shooting a day later, after they visited his home to investigate reports of suspicious activities.
Smith immediately told the deputies that he had shot and killed two people breaking into his home the day prior, the sheriff's office said in a news release.
Yeah. That's it.
Too much TV.
Better just to shoot the weapon out of the bad guy's hand.
The police might have wondered why they were shot in the basement if they broke a window in the upstairs bedroom to get in.
I'm guessing the homeowner may have been experiencing early-onset dementia, or was otherwise not tracking well.
"Pillager" -- you just can't make this stuff up.
Smith attempted to shoot her again, but his rifle jammed, prompting Kifer to laugh.Yes, I would think he went a bit beyond self-defense, if this is what he said.
Upset, Smith, pulled out a revolver he had on him and shot her "more times than I needed to" in the chest, he said.
Smith dragged Kifer next to Brady as she gasped for her life. He pressed the revolver's barrel under her chin and pulled the trigger in what he described as a "good, clean finishing shot" that was meant to end her suffering.
See #25, and linked article, for more details. He appears to have admitted that after wounding them, he deliberately finished them off.
He was in the basement, and shot each of them as they came down the basement stairs.
I thought about that too.
Then it looks like they've ALL 3 won stupid prizes.
No death penalty in MN, so he's got that going for him.
If you read all the stories, you will see that he went a tad far and so will probably go away for a long time.
He heard the first person coming down the stairs and shot him through the body. Then shot him again in the head at close range. The girl was coming down the stairs a short time later and he shot her as soon as he could see her hips. When he went to shoot her again, the rifle jammed. So he took out a pistol and shot her in the head from close range.
If that is a correct account of what happened I think he is in big trouble.
This is from his statements.
From self-defense to 2nd degree murder with a pull of the trigger.
Against a 65 year old guy, a muscular 17 year old guy (from the picture in the article), even unarmed, is a mortal threat since he likely can beat an old guy to death. If the old guy is in bad physical condition, even an 18 year old girl can be a threat.
Once they're shot and on the ground, though, the plausible threat is greatly reduced. He should have just held them at gunpoint and called police.
I hate hearing that!
When the threat is stopped, render aid.
This at least requires calling 911.
He shot them both in the hip before they got down the stairs. So he didn't know or care who they were.
The first shot in the hip might have been self-defense, but the succeeding ones were most definitely murder.
Why would they go to the basement? I have to wonder if he didn't know who they were because of some drug deal gone bad.
Dump the body on the porch of a neighbor you don't like.
I know you jest, but that's probably be thought of in newspaper/TV stations all over the Twin Cities.
I predict this will be used by the DFL to further more criminal protection laws.
This stinks to high heaven, it looks like these two petty criminal teens ran into a psycho killer.
I am all for defending one's life and property, and the lives and property of third parties,for that matter. But waiting a day to notify the authorities raises a red flag. If this part of the story is accurate, something is very wrong here.

keep reading, it gets worse.
"The Sheriff's Office said it has received only one previous report of a break-in at the home"
" Brady started coming down the stairs, and Smith shot him with a rifle by the time he saw the intruder's hips.
Brady fell down the stairs and was looking up at Smith when the homeowner shot him in the face.
"I want him dead," Smith explained to the investigator for the additional shot.
Smith put Brady's body on a tarp and dragged him to an office workshop.
A few minutes later, Smith heard footsteps above him. As in Brady's case, Kifer too started down the stairs and was shot by Smith by the time he saw her hips, sending her tumbling down the stairs.
Smith attempted to shoot her again, but his rifle jammed, prompting Kifer to laugh.
Upset, Smith, pulled out a revolver he had on him and shot her "more times than I needed to" in the chest, he said.
Smith dragged Kifer next to Brady as she gasped for her life. He pressed the revolver's barrel under her chin and pulled the trigger in what he described as a "good, clean finishing shot" that was meant to end her suffering."
"Sheriff Michel Wetzel told reporters Monday afternoon that Smith explained to authorities that he didn't call immediately after killing the two because "it was Thanksgiving. He didn't want to trouble us on a holiday."
No that wasn't the reason:
"Sheriff Michel Wetzel told reporters Monday afternoon that Smith explained to authorities that he didn't call immediately after killing the two because "it was Thanksgiving. He didn't want to trouble us on a holiday."
This guy is either crazy or stupid, or maybe both. His own words will put him away for a ling time. He took a legal use of deadly force and turned it into murder.
My comments get posted a good ten minutes or so after I submit them, so I did not read that part.
That puts a whole new spin on this.
Sadly, he did moire than just defend his property, he executed them both.
this man has some demons that have been bugging him awhile, and I think her just attempted to exorcize them.
I'm wondering if the guy is even telling the truth about the girl (Kifer) laughing at him after already getting shot. If so - sounds like all sorts of crazy going on.
Well, he was a government employee, so he probably figured rules didn't apply to him.

We really can't thank you enough. We do clearly appreciate, that we were a demanding client and the staff at the Casa Hotel are an absolute credit to the owner. Nothing was ever too much trouble and our 'constant' demands and bizarre requests to Mark, were met, every time, with an unwavering smile and a "no problem".
Katie on reception was also very helpful indeed, as was Lucy the night manager and your porter/driver (whose name I can't recall, my apologies).
All the waiting and kitchen staff were also lovely, Mark absolutely had them working efficiently and enthusiastically for him and you really can feel that the Casa consists of like-minded people, with a common goal – to deliver good service. I can only assume this stems from your management, but so incredibly refreshing – as you can imagine, we spend a lot of time in hotels / venues!
I have already recommended the Casa to my colleague, just this afternoon, for an event for Audi, so I do genuinely hope that we will be able to use the Casa Hotel again.View More Testimonials >

50 50 Chance Jenkins Is Gone For The Season according to Cimini report
Posted 14 September 2010 - 12:49 AM
Jenkins, who underwent reconstructive surgery on the same knee in October, was poised for a rebound season. He lost more than 30 pounds, reporting to camp in terrific shape. But on the Jets' sixth defensive play, he was caught in a pileup while trying to tackle Willis McGahee.
The Jets showed immediate concern, as players hovered over Jenkins as he received treatment from the Jets' doctors. He walked off the field under his own power, but he walked very slowly to the sideline. He was taken to the locker room and wasn't available after the game.
"I have no idea what the extent of the injury is, so I'm hopeful that it's not serious, but clearly it was enough for him not to return to the game," coach Rex Ryan said. "We're definitely hoping that he'll be OK."
If there's no damage to the ACL, Jenkins could miss only a few weeks. But if the ACL is torn, he'll be looking at more surgery.
Jenkins, 32, was injured last season in Week 6. His ACL surgery required a graft that involved a hamstring tendon. If this is another season-ending injury, Jenkins might consider retirement. He has admitted that he had fleeting thoughts of retirement while rehabbing his last knee injury
If Jenkins is out for an extended period, the Jets will be thin on the defensive line. Sione Pouha and Mike Devito would be the top interior linemen, with little depth. Ryan called Pouha, who had two fumble recoveries, "one of the best unknown players in the league."
The Jets overcame Jenkins' injury last season, still managing to finish with the No. 1 overall defense. But it will be a lot harder to do it without him.

Judging by his facial expressions as he walked off though it gave the impression it was something serious. Hopefully you're right though and that he can come back. He's a great teammate and a great player at a position where we are desperately thin.

There are now over 1500 recipes for dessert pizza on the internet. Some are made with real pizza dough and many are made with a cookie or brownie base. I spotted a couple using a graham cracker crust and even saw one that was made on a bagel. These all seemed a little too heavy for an ending to a wonderful homemade Valentine's Day dinner. I decided to make our Chocolate-Orange Valentine's Dessert Pizza with a light and flaky puff pastry. It's okay to use the frozen, store-bought stuff.
I looked everywhere I could and couldn't find anything on the history of who made the first dessert chocolate pizza. I even looked it up on Wikipizza. If you know who invented it or where it was first served, drop me a note and you may win a free box of Choclatique Valentine's Chocolate.
Prep Time: 30 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Cool Time: 20 minutes
Ready In: 90 minutes
Yield: 1 Pizza (Serves 2 to 4 people)
For the Dark Chocolate Ganache:
1 1/4 cups water
2/3 cup light corn syrup (Karo)
2 tablespoons Choclatique Rouge Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 pound Choclatique Private Reserve Dark Chocolate Pastilles
1 1/4 teaspoons chocolate extract (Star Kay White Pure Chocolate Extract)
For the Pizza:
1 puff pastry sheet, thawed (Pepperidge Farms or equal private label)
1/2 cup dark chocolate ganache (ingredients above)
2 tablespoons toasted almond slivers
10-12 orange segments
2 tablespoons caramel sauce
2 tablespoons Choclatique White Chocolate Curls
For the Dark Chocolate Ganache:
- Bring the water, corn syrup, cocoa powder and salt to a boil.
- Remove the pan from heat.
- Add the chocolate and chocolate extract.
- Whisk until smooth.
- Let the ganache cool to room temperature. Continue to stir periodically while cooling to keep it from separating.
- Cover and set aside.
For the Pizza:
- Preheat the oven to 400° F.
- Line a flat baking pan with a piece of parchment paper.
- Roll out the puff pastry so that an inverted 9" pie pan will fit on it. Cut out the puff pastry around the pie pan.
- Prick the pastry round all over with a fork or pairing knife.
- Place the dough on the baking pan and cover with a second sheet of parchment. Place a second baking pan on top of the parchment and place a weight, such as a small sauce pan on top of the second baking pan.
- Place the weighted pastry in the oven and bake for 14 minutes.
- Carefully remove the top baking pan and the top piece of parchment paper. Carefully place a pie pan into the direct center of the pastry round, leaving a uniform amount of dough exposed on all sides. Place the small sauce pan onto the pie pan to weigh it down. This will create the raised edges of the pizza crust.
- Place the pan back in the oven and bake for an additional 12 minutes or until the edges of the pastry are a deep golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool to room temperature.
- Spoon the ganache into the center of your "pizza" crust and carefully spread it to the raised edges.
- Sprinkle the almonds evenly over the ganache.
- Carefully place the orange segments in a circular pattern. Drizzle the caramel sauce over the whole pizza and finish by sprinkling the white chocolate curls over the top.
ChefSecret: You can easily substitute fresh berries or canned peach slices for the orange segments. You can have some fun with a kid's version of this dessert pizza by cutting out round shapes of fruit leather that look like pepperoni or salami.

Last week was a turning point for this season's Emery High Spartan football team. After a very tough loss for the Spartans the week before at Richfield, it was do or die time for the Spartans in this week's game against the Manti Templars. A win would keep the Spartans play-off picture bright, a loss would darken that picture horribly. The Spartans decided to do and they took the region win over Manti 31-16 in a game where the score was not that close.
At Richfield, Emery lost defensive lineman Brandon McCandless for the season with an arm injury. At game time, leading rusher Taylor Cox was kept out of the game with an illness. For team reasons, two other starters missed the first quarter of play. Despite the above, the Spartans came out and "thoroughly defeated the Templars" as the Manti coach would say after the game.
In the game, Manti would pick up yardage but they never had a serious scoring threat in the game until they scored in the closing seconds. Manti started an offensive series only twice in Emery territory. The Spartan defense shut them down for negative yardage on the first drive and forced a punt. The other drive ended with a long field goal.
The Emery defense ended the game with two interceptions and three recovered fumbles. Kashe Potter thrilled the crowd with an interception at the Emery goal line that was returned down the sideline in front of the Manti bench 98 yards for a touchdown. Nick Stoddard would end the very next Manti drive with another interception.
Manti's first drive of the game ended with a fumble. Linebacker Geren Payne hit the Templar back and Quinn Montgomery recovered the loose ball. Manti's second drive of the night started at their one-foot line thanks to a great punt by Stoddard and ended after one play due to another fumble. McKay West hit the Templar back and Stoddard recovered the loose ball. The last fumble recovered by Emery came in the second half. On an Emery punt, the Templar back could not hold on to the ball and Jesse Winn and Clay Collard were right there to come up with the loose ball.
Linebackers Nathan Mecham and Clay Collard finished the game with eleven tackles each while linebacker Geren Payne finished with ten tackles. Jacob Tuttle and Colton Fasselin each had five tackles on the night.
On offense for Emery, Colton Fasselin is the other halfback for Emery and Fasselin got the bulk of the calls this night. Fasselin ended the game with 114 yards on 16 carries and a touchdown. Jade Fielder ran the ball 11 times and picked up 58 yards and scored two touchdowns. Fielder also had the only Emery pass reception of the game, good for 13 yards. Nathan Mecham, an offensive lineman, picked up a loose Emery ball and gained three yards on his only carry of the season.
This week sees the Spartans go on the road for a game against the Juab Wasps. The Friday night game will pit Emery against a team that has won six straight games and is 2-0 in region 12 action. Last week, Juab defeated Richfield 20-14 in an overtime game. Juab is tied for the region lead with Delta.

NEW YORK — Derrick Rose kept saying he was fine.
The Chicago Bulls star certainly looked like he was feeling OK in Team USA's 112-86 exhibition win Friday against Puerto Rico at Madison Square Garden. Playing in his second game in ninth months, Rose came off the bench and made his presence felt, contributing six points and four assists in about 13 minutes of action.
Rose had sat out of several practices earlier in the week and missed Wednesday's exhibition game versus the Dominican Republic. But he answered questions on the court.
"Derrick brings something that we don't have as far as being able to push the ball so fast and get into the paint, and (he's) so athletic," USA guard James Harden said. "He made a couple cross-court passes for open threes. He looked phenomenal."
As Rose continues to find the form that made him the NBA MVP in 2010-11, he's been most effective as a facilitator, driving the lane and finding an open Chandler Parsons for three in the second quarter and then making a similar play to Rudy Gay late in the third. While starting point guard Kyrie Irving hit the floor several times, Rose mostly avoided contact Friday, going to the line once on a questionable shooting foul by Puerto Rico's J.J. Barea.
Even though his absence Wednesday was attributed to USA coach Mike Krzyzewski wanting to get a look at the team's other guards, Rose's admission that he was feeling "general soreness" seemed to leave a question as to whether or not he was returning to form as well as expected. That query was answered Friday, but it now opens up another issue with one final exhibition left to play before the FIBA World Cup, which kicks off August 30 vs. Finland.
Who's his starting point guard against Slovenia in Tuesday's final warm-up?
"We'll determine that. That's going to be one of our big meetings on the plane [to Spain]," Krzyzewski said. "My feeling is that Kyrie — we've got to see how Derrick reacts to tonight. I thought both those guys were really good. And then we played them together too. And this guy (Stephen Curry, who started at shooting guard but plays point) played well at point too. We have a little bit of depth on that."
All three likely will get a little more run once Team USA finalizes their 12-man roster on Saturday. Four players will be cut from the current squad. With Krzyzewski telling reporters that he plans to take five or six big men overseas, it makes sense that there will be more minutes to spread around fewer guards.
"Me and (Rose) could be playing together, especially in the fourth quarter like we did in Chicago," Irving said. "I know Coach likes that look so we'll see what happens. I thought he looked great."
Regardless of how the backcourt rotation comes together moving forward, Krzyzewski seems to have no qualms about Rose's role heading into the tournament.
"I feel very confident about Derrick. I think Derrick feels very confident," Krzyzewski said. "I thought he played great tonight. These guys want to play with him. It's part of getting back is to be around a group of peers. These guys are his peers who want you to be really good. You're already really good but if James Harden wants (Curry) to be really good and (Curry) wants Derrick Rose to be really good and Kyrie, it's a different thing. That's what we've seen over the years and that's where the brotherhood develops. It's one of the cool things about what's happened over the past nine years (of USA Basketball)."

Wearing animal skins, his appearance was also dishevelled and unkempt as he lived the life of an ascetic in the desert. St John the Baptist is also identified by his cross made from reeds and the ribbon inscribed with 'Ecce Agnus Dei'. Derived from the fourth gospel (1:36) it states ' John looked towards Jesus and said 'There is the Lamb of God'".

Benitez unsure on Sturridge
Rafa Benitez has admitted that he does not know if Daniel Sturridge will be leaving Chelsea in the January transfer window.

15. Daniel Sturridge
|15 (14)
Sturridge has struggled to establish himself as a regular at Stamford Bridge and it was reported earlier this week that Liverpool were closing in on a move for the forward.
Fresh speculation has suggested that the deal has hit a snag, but Benitez refused to give too much away and would only hint that there could be a switch next month.
"He was training with us yesterday," Benitez said in the Fulham & Hammersmith Chronicle. "But that was just one training session. So now we have to wait, because he was injured.
"To be fair, I only saw him three times last week, so he couldn't train too much in this time with him."
Asked if Sturridge was set for a move, Benitez said: "We will see. You never know in the market."
Benitez insisted he was in the dark over stories linking the 23-year-old with a move to Liverpool.
"I don't know what they said, because I didn't read the press," the Chelsea manager commented.

Mexican America
"Mexican America" is a sampling of objects from the collections of the National Museum of American History. The stories behind these objects reflect the history of the Mexican presence in the United States. They illustrate a fundamentally American story about the centuries-old encounter between distinct (yet sometimes overlapping) communities that have coexisted but also clashed over land, culture, and livelihood.
Who, where, and what is Mexico? Over time, the definitions and boundaries of Mexico have changed. The Aztec Empire and the area where Náhautl was spoken—today the region surrounding modern Mexico City—was known as Mexico. For 300 years, the Spanish colonizers renamed it New Spain.
When Mexico was reborn in 1821 as a sovereign nation, its borders stretched from California to Guatemala. It was a huge and ancient land of ethnically, linguistically, and economically diverse regions that struggled for national unity. Texas, (then part of the Mexican state of Coahuila y Tejas) was a frontier region far from the dense cities and fertile valleys of central Mexico, a place where immigrants were recruited from the United States. The immigrants in turn declared the Mexican territory an independent republic in 1836 (later a U.S. state), making the state the first cauldron of Mexican American culture. By 1853, the government of Mexico, the weaker neighbor of an expansionist United States, had lost what are today the states of California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, and parts of Colorado and Wyoming. In spite of the imposition of a new border, the historical and living presence of Spaniards, Mexicans, indigenous peoples, and their mixed descendants remained a defining force in the creation of the American West.
"La América Mexicana" es una muestra conformada por objetos provenientes de las distintas colecciones del Museo Nacional de Historia Americana. Estos objetos reflejan la historia de la presencia mexicana en los Estados Unidos e ilustran una crónica fundamentalmente americana acerca del encuentro centenario entre comunidades diferentes que han coexistido, pero que también se han enfrentado, en la pugna por la tierra, la cultura y el sustento.
¿Quién, dónde y qué es México? Con el transcurso del tiempo, las definiciones y los límites de México han ido cambiando. Se conocía como México al Imperio Azteca y toda el área donde se hablaba náhuatl —actualmente la región circundante a la ciudad de México. Durante 300 años los colonizadores españoles se refirieron a ella como Nueva España. Cuando en 1821 México resurgió como una nación soberana, sus fronteras se extendían desde California a Guatemala. En ese entonces era un antiguo e inmenso territorio conformado por regiones étnica, lingüística y económicamente diversas que luchaban por adquirir unidad nacional. Texas (en ese entonces parte de los estados mexicanos de Coahuila y Tejas) era una región fronteriza lejos de las densas urbes y de los fértiles valles de México central, donde se reclutaban inmigrantes de los Estados Unidos. En el año 1836 este territorio mexicano se declaró como república independiente (y más tarde, estado de EE.UU.), convirtiéndose en el primer calderón de la cultura mexicoamericana. Hacia 1853, el gobierno de México, el vecino débil de un Estados Unidos en expansión, había perdido el territorio de los actuales estados de California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, Nuevo México, Texas y partes de Colorado y Wyoming. A pesar de la imposición de un nuevo límite fronterizo, la presencia histórica y ocupacional de los españoles, mexicanos y pueblos indígenas, junto a sus descendientes mestizos, constituiría a lo largo del tiempo una influencia determinante para el desarrollo del Oeste Americano.

The Last Moment of the Emperor Maximilian
- Description
- This relief print from The Magazine of Art dramatically illustrates the final moments before the execution of the Mexican Emperor Maximilian I in 1867. An Austrian noble by birth, Maximilian was installed by Napoleon III of France. French forces had invaded Mexico in 1862, after President Benito Juárez suspended payments on its foreign debt. Despite a major victory by Mexican forces at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862, the French seized control of large sections of Mexico, including the capital. Maximilian was initially supported by Mexican conservatives in a backlash against the changes instituted by the Mexican War of Reform (1857–1861). However, once on the throne, his support of a free press, open universities, land reform, and other progressive ideas of the day proved to be out of step with his conservative constituency and the Catholic Church. Menaced by the government of the United States, victorious after its own civil war, and the rising success of Mexican nationalist forces, the French withdrew their military support of Maximilian, the last emperor of Mexico. This historic image is one of 45,000 artistic and commercials prints housed in the Graphic Arts Collection of the National Museum of American History.

Codex Telleriano-Remensis
- Description
- The civilizations of pre-Hispanic Mexico recorded their histories, religious beliefs, and scientific knowledge in books called codices. Codices are folded pieces of hide or bark that depict both mundane and spiritual scenes with images, symbols, and numbers. Scribes and painters busily recorded daily affairs, filling libraries and temples with books throughout Mexico and Central America. The majority of these illustrated books did not survive the Spanish conquest. But indigenous scribes trained by Spanish missionaries continued writing. While these colonial-era texts were still filled with pictures, over time they referenced the visual language of older Mexican and Maya books less and less. These new books about community histories (including land titles) and secret religious traditions were sometimes bilingual, combining Spanish with either Náhautl (the common language of central Mexico) or a Mayan language, both of which were now written with the Latin alphabet. This image is from an Italian reproduction of the Codex Telleriano-Remensis, a manuscript co-written by Spanish friar Pedro de los Ríos about 1550. It documents the religious beliefs, calendar system, traditions, and history of the Tolteca-Chichimeca culture of Central Mexico. Joseph Florimond, Duc de Loubat, (1837–1921) was an American philanthropist who published a series of reproductions of pre-Hispanic and colonial-era Mexican manuscripts, including the Codex Telleriano-Remensis. The Graphic Arts Collection of the National Museum of American History houses several reproductions of Mesoamerican codices published for study by French, German, and Italian scholars at the turn of the 20th century.

France coach Philippe Saint-André is totally opposed to the proposed introduction of bonus points for the Six Nations Championship.
France coach Philippe Saint-André is totally opposed to the proposed introduction of bonus points for the Six Nations Championship.
The 45-year-old, who is set to take France into his second Six Nations as coach, said he would feel cheated were his side to win the Grand Slam but another team finished top on account of accruing more bonus points.
It was revealed earlier this month that consultation report has been drawn up for the six countries to discuss whether to bring in the bonus-points system which would see sides earn points for scoring four tries and losing by a margin of seven points or less.
On that basis France's Grand Slam in 2002 would have not been enough to see them top the table as bitter rivals England would have edged them courtesy of four offensive bonus points.
All the British Isles major club tournaments as well as the European Cup and Challenge competitions award bonus points, but the Six Nations has consistently refused to do so, declaring the history and success of the tournament meant change was not necessary.
The report says that foremost among the countries wanting a full debate on the matter are England.
However, Saint-André, an Anglophile having spent more than eight years coaching across the Channel, believes imposing bonus points would destroy the whole ethos of the competition.
"I like the system as it is important for World Cups and club competitions," the 69-time capped former France wing and captain told AFP on Tuesday.
"However, maybe I'm old school but I wouldn't feel at ease if a team won the Grand Slam and don't win the Six Nations because another team gets more points on account of bonus points.
"I would feel cheated if that were to happen because it goes against the spirit of the competition.
"Me, I came into rugby because as a child I used to watch the (then) Five Nations and it was all about either the Grand Slam or the wooden spoon."

So strange to see Dave Grohl playing drums again
I loved this!ReplyCancel
Okay what is with all the ads on this site – I'm going to have to stop reading at work if all that pop up are girls with giant racks.ReplyCancel
@seaward: Have you seen "What We Do Is Secret"? (Something like that.) I didn't read the book, but it was cool to get a bit of insight into Darby's life. Pat and Lorna make cameos, waiting in line for a show.
Also: they didn't play Nirvana songs, so anyone who thinks this video/event is a travesty need not worry.ReplyCancel
Grohl and Novoselic were awesome, McCartney was meh but then again I've never been a fan.ReplyCancel
aaaand of course Crazy Courtney Love is having a fit they called it a "Nirvana" reunion. According to her it only would of been cool if John Lennon had been singing. That Kurt was the heart and soul of Nirvana (and apparently the only member in her kooky eyes).
Love how she drags out his dead carcass anytime she needs some publicity. Let the man RIP already.ReplyCancel
He hasn't stopped playing drums at all thoughReplyCancel
It's not a Nirvana reunion without Kurt, which means there will never be one. Period.ReplyCancel
Smells Like Senior Citizen SpiritReplyCancel
timebob: In all fairness, she does have a point–it's not a Nirvana reunion, it's the 2 surviving members playing with someone else; I think it was everyone else talking it up as a "Nirvana reunion," not the guys actually playing together. (Gotta say the Lennon quip is pretty good–say what you will about Courtney, but she's always been good with one-liners.)
Years ago, when I was still in GA, I saw the very first Foo Fighters tour at the 40 Watt Club; Mike Watt was the headliner, with Dave playing drums for him, and Hovercraft was the opening act (Eddie Vedder's then-wife Beth's band; Eddie played drums for them while wearing a wig). My roommate & I were standing slightly behind the stage, where we could get a really good look at the drummers, and we agreed that the Foo's drummer was really good…until we saw Dave get up there, at which point both our mouths dropped open & we stood there staring. He's definitely one of the best drummers I've ever seen, and like most people who are really, really good at something, he made it look utterly effortless. Wow…ReplyCancel
Robin, be sure to check out the BluRay of Nirvana Live at the Paramount. I guess at the time Nirvana 1st broke I was so focused on Cobain I hadn't noticed what an unbelievable drummer Grol was.ReplyCancel
@seaward sorry to disappoint you but Courtney isn´t mad:
" if they dont do songs they didnt write (nirvana songs they dont own) i dont care." – Courtney's facebook
@timebob so you have the right to publicly state your opinion on people you have never met and matters you hardly know about, yet a person who is part of the corporation running the brand can't? I'm glad I don't have to deal with you.
fyi Kurt hated Paul McCartney. Read his interviews: "I like the Beatles but I hate Paul McCartney". Kurt and Courtney had fights at home because Courtney is a McCartney lady and Kurt was a Lennon man. Considering Kurt idolised Lennon and hated McCartney, Courtney voiced what many Nirvana fans have voiced since yesterday.ReplyCancel
We've been asked to participate
In a Madonna rocker than can reactivate
We're Ciccone Youth from New York City
Make the feature cut next week cuz it's a Tuff Titty
Now I know my rhyme ain't bustin' no chime
Cuz my rap be crappy like a homeboy's slime
His name is Mike Watt, he's gonna get caught
Some knucklehead defiance
To the group at New Alliance
Fuck yeah
Fuck yeah
also courtney, don't do this, be coolReplyCancel
At a Foo Fighters concert I went to many many years ago, Dave and Taylor had a drum duo. There were two drum sets on stage. They played together and they had a mini drum-off. It was epic and the coolest thing I have every seen in my life.
I was so sad I couldn't make it to the last FF concert in my state. And it looks like it is going to last one for quite awhile.ReplyCancel

Comments: These are my favorite store-bought jerk baits now! I paint my own hardbaits primarily now but I keep buying the perch pattern in the 4" every year. They get fished primarily in Ontario for a multi species trip, they are amazing for pike and smallmouth if perch are a source of food. A couple days of pike hitting these gives them some good battle scars (lose paint, lose eyes, require new trebles & split rings, the occasional rear hook hanger gets ripped off with a good fighter), so I make sure to bring at least 4 on our trip since they work so well and take a beating. For a while it was hard to find twitch sticks, especially in the perch color, really glad that TW has come back with a solid consistent stock of these. They are a mainstay in my tackle box.

Comments: Once the water warms up and the weeds begin to take over the shallows; we cast and troll these over the tops of weeds and brush for large walleyes. We use the 3 1/4" to avoid weeding up as often and the fish seem to prefer the smaller size. The Twitch Stick is an excellent jerk bait for the price.
From: Sam: Pueblo, CO 5/30/15
Comments: Here is something I found out, the size 10 is fantastic, it suspends great at 50 degrees down to about 45. The size 8 seems to float but 1 suspend dot placed before the front treble hook should make it perfect, if it still floats slowly try another 1/2 suspend dot right after the front treble. So far these have been great and as I said, the size 10, 4" model suspends rather well, the small 3.5" size 8 is the one that floats up but these jerkbait catch fish, you can't beat them for the price.
From: Tyler: USA
Comments: nice action ,caught a 37 inch pike on the second cast With it
From: Maxime: Qc
Comments: Very good erratic rolls do to its rounder body
From: Miguel: MN
Comments: Bought this in the sunfish color and used it prespawn in a private pond loaded with sunfish, perch and stunted bass. Awesome paint job. Good erratic action when twitched. It floats, but with 2 suspendots it now suspends perfectly. Did well catching bass and perch.
From: Alan: CT
Comments: Andrew: Put larger hooks, a large snap, or a small titanium leader. The small titanium leader is nice, because the pike won't bite you off, and it will suspend nose down.
From: Brad: Hayden
Comments: I cant get these to suspend any suggestions on how to make them suspend without suspend strips?
From: Andrew: CO
Comments: I agree with the last guy, it does not suspend well out of the box, but change both hooks to size 4 trebles and its on the money. love this bait once it works right!
From: CJ: mt arlington, nj
Comments: This lure has great action and it has a pretty nice paint job but it cant suspend for s***. Overall it is pretty nice bait though catches some decent fish.
From: Sam: Charlotte, NC
Comments: I used the Hot Blue Shad, and this bait look so gorgeous and it is a must for a tackle box. I pulled in 10 fishin in about 4 hours on this bait alone, including one 3+ pound bass. Great product, buy it.
From: Kevin: FL
Comments: These are just plain awesome jerkbaits! I think these will start the prices falling because they perform and perform well with good hooks and split rings for 5 bucks! I just got 3 more after I got 2 of them at the beginning of November and they do have a distinct wobble on the pause, they suspend just as good as a pointer in 44 degree water, the threadfin shad is what you want for smallies!!
From: Dan: Minersville, PA
Comments: I was given a blue chrome orange a month ago and I used it 3 times and now I just order 3 more and will probably buy some more after Christmas. I'm filling my jerkbait box because I can't believe the price on them, this is an excellent jerkbait, ithas a slow rise in water in upper 40's but it suspends well in 43-44 degree water and it has good hooks right out of the box but when it begins a slow rise or suspends it has the same little wobble effect like the pointer, awesome bait!!
From: Dan: Minersville, PA
Comments: I picked up a few on a whim while I was ordering some other things at TW. The hooks and split rings are sturdy. It's a bulky lure compared to most other jerkbaits. It has an excellent side to side roll and the Rainbow Smelt pattern really flashes well when you move it. It does have a slow rise on the pause. It catches fish and I'll be using it more.

Here's a chart example to demonstrate many of the major themes of the Hellenistic tradition of astrology. In this essay I refrain from outright interpretation and simply discuss how one would see a chart according to the Hellenistic tradition. I choose a person well known to many Americans as both or either a politician and an entertainer.
Rush Limbaugh, according to some (Democrats), was the de facto leader of the Republican Party, yet he has never held elected or appointed office. He is an influential talk-radio host and self-proclaimed spokesperson for the conservative cause. He has been a national figure for the past twenty years. He has helped steer many a political cause, his depictions of liberal politicians can be devastating, and he is not particularly beloved by women. Yet even some liberals find him an entertaining guilty pleasure.
Let's take our time with what we have here. First of all we're seeing his astrological chart using whole sign houses, the original house (or "place" topos) system. In the next image of his chart, to make the contrast more clear, I have deleted the Midheaven degree, which in the ancient tradition was mostly used for predictive purposes. I have included the Ascendant that always falls somewhere in the first house or place.
