What are you doing with it? Trying to diag it or install something?
Car has been down for 5 years. Rewired a bunch of stuff, relocated battery to trunk. Car has Motronic 7.5 running dash etc, and Autronic SM4 running engine....
Awesome! If I dont go to the Fort Collins meet, I'll be there. Either way I'll be sure to go next week! Thanks for hosting this Gabe
So if somebody shows up with club decals on their car will they be told to hit the road?
No not at all. We not going to turn anyone away unless they start something verbally or physically. if they do they will be politely asked to leave. stickers are self expression, just like our cars and thats what the scene is all about. self expression through our cars. i just dont want to hear anymore club drama.
Stoked for tonight! Can't wait to see how many people show up!
Looking forward to tonight. If i can manage 2 car washes before the GTG starts we will bring the wifes and my car out. Looking forward to it.

Awesome! Glad to see you guys are gonna be able to make it after all!!
I love the idea of a non-club gtg, plus I've never been to Bluewater. That being said...
**looks at Corrado, calculates distances involved, compares number of things that have broken in the last few weeks against seasonal average, divides that ratio by number of tools and spare parts in hatch, consults Murphy on his law, sacrifices a baby lamb, crosses fingers**
I'd like to go to this as well. If I can get my gauge cluster working, and a couple new hose clamps, then definitely.
Heather, I'll be in touch.

The St. Jude Total Therapy Program is a series of protocols utilized on childhood ALL patients from 1967 - 1988. The data regarding secondary brain tumors are summarized above and this corroborates other reported series.1-3 There seems to be a definite association of secondary brain tumors with cranial irradiation and RT dose, but no significant correlation with intrathecal chemotherapy. As a result of this and other series, only select high risk ALL patients receive cranial irradiation along with intrathecal chemotherapy.

The bill will now move to the House of Representatives where it will have to pass committee and floor action before going to Gov. Quinn.
A bill to legalize same-sex marriage passed the Illinois Senate early Thursday afternoon, making a happier Valentine's Day for gay couples across the state. The Senate passed the bill—SB 10—with 34 votes in favor, 21 votes against and two abstentions. The bill will now go to the House of Representatives, where it will need 60 votes to pass. The bill will now go over to the House of Representative where it will have to repeat the same process before going to Gov. Quinn, who already voiced his support of the bill in a Chicago Tribune report. If passed, the state law defining marriage would be changed from an act between a man and a woman, to two people. "I've been told it's not a matter of if, it's a matter of when it's going to be done," …

Satin Side Draped Gown with Beaded Lace Appliques
Style 9WG3464
David's Bridal Woman
This item is available in stores and online.*
Elegant and unforgettable, you are a star in this lavish a-line wedding dress.
Train that extends one and a third yards (about 4 feet) from the waist. Elaborate designs stitched into the gown by hand or machine. May be beaded. A decorative fabric design or lace cutout that is applied to another fabric such as a dress, veil or shoes. A dress with a fitted bodice that gradually flares from the waist. A-line styles are flattering for all women. A smooth fabric often used in bridal gown design because of its exquisite drape. |
Satin Side Draped Gown with Beaded Lace Appliques Style 9WG3464
I went into DB having a few ideas about the dress I wanted. My matron of honor was with me and told me to take one dress off the rack that I didn't think I would ever wear...just to try it on. This was the dress I took off the rack for that purpose, it was the one I tried on first(tried 5 others too#, and it was the one I wore on my wedding day last weekend #May 11, 2013). This dress is so flattering...esp. to my plus size figure. I received so many compliments and so many people simply gushed over the dress! So glad I said YES to this dress!!!
May 19, 2013
I went in today to look at silhouettes to get an idea what I would be interested in for my wedding next year. After trying a couple a-line dresses and a fit & flare, I wanted to try on a ballgown, and my consultant brought several. and though this isn't a true ballgown, it is nice and full with the puffy slip under it. It was not what I expected, it was PERFECT!!!!!! My waist looks small and the sparkles are just enough, not too flashy. I didn't want to take it off, I looked so beautiful. I rarely even look pretty, but this dress gave me the tears.
March 15, 2013
LOVE this dress!!!!
When I first went into DB I was thinking I was gonna be buying a fit and flare gown. After trying on some fit and flare options I decided I wasn't really feeling that style dress. I have hips and a butt however I am very flat chested so the fit and flare really did nothing for my top half. First my consultant brought me an all lace dress that I fell in love with immediately! However when she told me that it was nearly twice my budget I decided I could absolutely not afford it. After seeing my heart break my sister in law and mother in law went to find me a dress and brought me this dress and I fell in love with it. My mom couldn't be there with me so my sister was sending her pictures and this is the only gown she cried for.
March 4, 2013
Amazing Doesn't Even Describe It!
I was staying away from strapless BUT my consultant brought this out and that was it... for my plus size figure, this slimmed me down like no other dress... I can't wait til my firefighter see's me in this :))

clan op special emblems
Like (0)
hey fellow gamers just wondering if anyone is in a clan in the high levels that have yet to recieve those speacial emblems ranking up during clan ops my clan is level 36 and i see theres a emblem for level 2,6,8,11,14,17,21,24,27,31,34.... all of those emblems me and my team has yet to recieve them... now this is messed up im a premium player /founder.. and i feel like all elite people are getting ripped off.. to me elite shouldnt of launched the app and website until everything is good and stable they really need to fix this ... is anyone else know where im coming from?
My clan just hit Level 31 (as of the FRI, June 22nd OP), and it unlocked the Platinum Eagle Emblem for that level. However, myself and the rest of my clan have yet to receive the emblems we should have earned for all of the earlier levels we already achieved. Does anyone have any word on this issue?
Customer support say they know about these emblems, but dont know when they will be released
Visit the following for a rather recent update on this matter: http://mp1st.com/2012/06/20/modern-warfare-3-elite-clan-emblem-unlocks-to-be-add ed-soon/
i beleive they already came out i got someone on my friends list on ps3 and his clan is rank 21 and he got the lion emblem.. now thats some bull i want mine lol...
level up your clan 1 more time it will unlock it
in GoML clan lvl 32 no emblems yet
Yea we reached level 37 today and didnt unlock anything. this is some crap.. lol beachhead needs to get their stuff together
Until they give us our well deserved emblems through a patch, the only way to unlock them is by leveling up and unlocking the next emblem (determining whatever current level you're at now).
yea i figured that but my clan and i suppose to unlock one emblem today but have yet to get it its the frog one to reach level 37
Maybe, you guys just don't deserve a frog emblem. Did you finish your homework and take out the trash?

Title:JoanArtist:John DeAndrea Date:1987 Creation Place:North America, United States Credit Line:Gift of Donna and Cargill MacMillan Jr. Accession Number:2010.58.2 John De Andrea is an American sculptor and a contributor to the superrealist art movement; he was part of the original art movement that began in the late 1960s. He has become famous for his life-like sculptures of nude models, the majority of which are idealized figures of women. Cast from life and finished with the utmost detail, these sculptures are usually elegant and casually posed. Their glossy hyperrealism, however, ultimately detracts from their beauty - much as surgical enhancements mar the natural beauty of so many women today. In this sense, especially, these works are a fascinating expression of contemporary culture.
Joan is a quintessential example of DeAndrea's superrealist sculpture, in which he explores his interest in trompe l'oei and his ideas about female beauty.

She's no stranger to provocative pictures or shocking actions, and Lindsay Lohan's latest photo shoot with celebrity photographer Terry Richardson is another jaw-dropper.
On Tuesday (June 26), the controversial photog released multiple shots of the troubled actress on his website, Terry's Diary, with the post stirring up plenty of feedback.
In several of the snaps taken at celeb hotspot Chateau Marmont, LiLo is seen holding a gun to herself in "suicide-like" poses, however, these were later taken down from the site by Richardson.
Other pics that remained up to be viewed reveal Lindsay in a somewhat disheveled state wearing a nipple-bearing bra, posing on a bed with a cigarette in-hand and even sharing the spotlight with performer Sky Ferreira, who makes a small cameo.

VIP and official visitors' parking

Road rules
Roadways and parking areas within the University of Sydney are "Roads & Road-Related Areas" for the purposes of the Australian Road Rules and the NSW Road Transport (Safety & Traffic Management) Act 1999. This means drivers are required to observe the rules as they would on any public street. The law therefore requires that, on the University campuses, seat belts must be worn, safety helmets must be worn and local speed limits observed.
The grounds and roadways of the University of Sydney are also controlled by "Resolutions of Senate" enacted under the University of Sydney Act. These Resolutions are published in the University Calendar. In addition, the Enclosed Lands Protection Act is relevant in the management of access for persons and vehicles.
You need to comply with all signage and pavement markings displayed at access points, carparks and throughout University grounds.
If your vehicle is in breach of the rules, an infringement notice can be issued by an authorised Campus Security Officer.
The fine for illegally parking on University grounds is at least $99. This penalty is determined under the Australian Road Rules, not by the University.
Fines are processed by the State Debt Recovery Office, and are subject to enforcement in the same way as if the offense occurred on a public street.
If you receive an infringement notice, read the 'Method of Disposal' section on the back, for information on how to pay.

kate spade new york Larabee Dot Bath Towels, 100% Cotton
not worth the money
Although these towels are super cute with the bright colors and dots, after the first wash and second use, the color in the towels is fading in spots like they have been bleached out in certain spots. I am sadly taking them back to the store. Not sure if just these 2 are defective, and maybe I'll try to replace them and try again, but I don't think I want to pay the price I did for something that looks bad after 2 uses...
May 17, 2013
Wouldnt buy again
While I do realize that I was not in a NY boutique of Kate Spade I was still expecting to get bath towels that I could use for at least a year.
I love Kate Spade and when setting up our wedding registry at Bed BAth & Beyond I was So thrilled to see her collection. Now months later I am beyond disappointed that after ONE wash the towels are falling apart. I have had non-name brand fabrics for bath towels hold up better.
Dont waste your money~
February 3, 2013
super cute - super cheap
I got them today and washed all 10 towels. They are seriously falling apart at the seams from the corner. There are a ton of loose strings. They feel very thin as well. I think they look darling, but don't think they will last. I suggest you go to the store and see if these are the towels for you. I would NOT recommend them. I also purchased the shower curtain and bath mats .
December 19, 2012
Love love love these!
We registered for these for our wedding, and I absolutely love them! We got the towels in yellow and the Rugs in green. They are so fun! And the polka dots look so good! They are such fun colors! And they feel great! These are great towels especially if you have a fun personality!

Surely, it is as simple as that isn't it John.
Climate drives Co2 levels - not the other way round.
Not exactly: Milankovitch Cycles drove the warming & cooling, and the CO2 released e.g. from permafrost decay in transitions from glacials to interglacials amplified the warming. So you have tipping-points relative to Earth's orbital cycles and CO2 acting as an alternatively negative or positive feedback. Did I not say ages ago that it is the thermostat of the planet?

What with one thing and another, I have been AWOL from here for soooo long, so I thought this was an appropriate time of year to pop back in and wish everyone all the very, very best for 2012.
No matter what the coming year might throw at us, life is a rollercoaster ride and remember that for all the lows, there will be the wonderful highs. And every now and then, pause and take a little time to remember that the simple pleasures lie in
the glitter of sunlight on frosted spider webs
the smell of earth after rain
the feel of the sun on your back
the song of a blackbird at dusk
all the beauty and the wonder that springs from our labours and surrounds us as we, the priveledged caretakers and tenders of the natural world, go about our daily business
and the joy that the fruits of our care and tending brings to others
Remember too to rejoice in the love of friends and family, and in the connections that you make with people you have met and have yet to meet
the places you have been and have yet to go
the things you have done and are yet to do
Oh, and it's easy to forget sometimes, but we're the lucky ones who get to play outside all day!
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all!!!
I'm off to eat cake, make a mistletoe wig, and shake all the boxes under the tree. See you in 2012. By then I will be one year older and none the wiser...
Hi Andy,
The last time I saw you was just before you were off to Ikea with the Mrs. She must have bought one massive load of flat pack furniture for you to put together - were've you been?
Anyway it's nice to see you back chap and I hope you are well.
Happy X-mas and New Year to you.
Good to see you back - I love the sparkly tree :)
Hi Andy
We also wish you well for 2012.
Great to catch up with you at CL, looking forward to seeing you during 2012 in Piddletrenthide.
Nice one...best wishes to one and all too......

Like (3)
Ok, I see a lot of ppl whining about campers so I though I'd attmempt to justify my reasons for camping. But 1st of all let me state that I'm not the type of camper that just camps in one place. I'm more like a sniper because I move to a different camping position after I get a kill or kills.
alright, so the the 1st reason is because I enjoy camping, I enjoy the test of patience.
2nd Reason: I love getting kills on unsuspecting players, especially getting multi kills of groups on enemies who have no idea that I am in their immediate proximity. The funniest thing is where I sneak up an a group of players who are hold up in a building and I kill them one by one withiout any of them suspecting a thing
3rd Reason: I get a laugh when somebody i just killed comes back looking for me in the spot that I was camping in when I first killed them and then I kill them again from a different camping position, usually from a camping position opposite the previous camping position. This just makes me lol hard. On some occasions I have killed the same person 5 times in a row using this technique.
ok, so my best maps for camping are bakaara, seatown and lockdown
This is how I "camp" lol
sht I woulda came in there with some akimbo G18's or a PM-9 and waxed that ass lol. Props on the gameplay tho for really.
lmao! some dude actually tubed in there, but he did it right after I got the vest on, so I lived
The only time I camp is to counter-camp in a sense. Most commonly in face off, or search and destroy.
This is how you make a fool of campers that have no skill. Not that theres much skill in CoD.
haha! a dude get's spawned right by the guy that killed him...Classic CoD
Yeah the spawns in Dome are awful no idea why everyone votes for it in FFA .
now thats what I call 'proactive camping'
There was no sign of camping in that vid. you may joke about it all you like but i have seen real campers, and that was not it.
Apparently other people think it's camping...You'd be surprised at how many hatemail I received during and after that match lol
I think its sexy
Just a tactical gameplay
no disrespect bro but you my friend are not a camper your heading is misleading, your are defending or patrolling your area or outsmarting your OP. campers go back to the same spot every time after the get waxed.
yeah I see what you mean, but some ppl would define that as camping.
I have always played FPS in the patrolling fashion (which you described) and I get called a camper too. Not all the time but it happens. It's just people upset that you played at a level of strategy that they were not expecting. End of story.
actually, after I saw this thread, I went out and thew on this class: ump silenced (range), blind eye, assassin, sitrep (all pro perks), and camped my nips off. gotta say I had quite a few lols to the response I got from angry try hards
Well me personally, I run recon and hardline. So I toss a flash up in the air, and it paints that entire area, and you are now a red triangle like advanced uav, but it's a continous triangle, like the dot when someone is tagged by a recon drone. Then the kicker is I don't have to kill you to get my points, that's where hardline pro comes in, 1 point for every 2 assists. So in short.
Run recon and hardline, spam nades (anything will do, flash's especially). Let teamates mop you up, and the perfect anticamping set. Drop the pred on that camping red box when ya get it ahhhhh, campers dying over and over.
But most would rather do, smg, extreme conditioning, run around like an idiot, staring straight forward, killed by a corner camper then ***** on forum. Lulz you people.
@hardhat94 ....loving it lol.
Hehe. As a player who has been affected by camper for a long time, I find it funny to be on the other end of the spectrum...
and then my C4 and xm25 rounds find you and you rage and possibly quit.
wont be raging becos I'll be too busy lmao when I kill you again for the nth time while your searching for my whereabouts
fortunately it doesnt take me that long. once i know the general area you are in, i automatically think of all the spots you could be in and i would tube from a good distance. i have done this long enough to know better.
so anybody else got their fav maps for camping? what are the worst maps for camping?
Village is a great camping map. It's probably the only map where I literally will sit on the platform and pick people off, until I get killed. Then I'll move to the opposite side of the map and sit by small hut lol! Overwatch is probably the worst camping map IMO.
Arkaden. The concession stand at the bottom of the escalator.
Ingredients needed:
1 Silenced ACR
1 Trophy System
1 Assassin Pro
Stir well then cook at 360 degrees. Serve and enjoy!
Haha that actually works well. I remember one game of tdm, there was only 1 guy back there the whole game, and none of my team could get him out of there.. so frustrating
In all seriousness some of the best little tricky spots to hide I learned from watching female players.
we are a cunning bunch
Indeed I love all of you

only trance & progressive
only trance & progressive
This idea is very interested and I can't wait who win
Trance is the way of my mind... myspace.com/krisvandrinken1987
good idea for cd's and vinyl users
Will participate... next month
Uploading my set right now. Will be submitting it within today
Its good to see only Vinyl and CDJs are allowed; the djs can now show their skills properly!
It's good indeed to make hardware competitions only, but I can only use my pc for mixing right now... I have just 11 vinyls and no cdj stuff :S
i would love to participate, but i do not have the equipment. I can only use my computer for these kind of mixes, software like virtual DJ. but this is againsta the rules...
Dedicated to Trance - DJ contest Winner
that'll be normalisation then?...adjusting the overall volume...
nothing else like compression I understand!?!
but I can still use stuff like EFX 500 in the mix or is setup purely decks and mixer and nada mas?
normalization, compression, clipping, limiting etc are all ok, as long as its done equally on the whole set and doesnt alter the perceived sound.
any other hardware gear you have is ok too, such as send/return fx stuff. it just has to used "live" while mixing, not applied afterwards in any way.
http://dfx.at/sets/ :: http://myspace.com/dfx_dj
This is a great idea... I essentially signed up just to a be a part haha. Just waiting for some new tracks to finish downloading (paid for them of course) and I'll start on my set. Out of curiosity, how many submissions were there last month?
last month we had 9 submissions, which is quite a nice number. the rules for how often a certain dj can submit sets are still not completely worked out, so watch out for updates regarding that.
http://dfx.at/sets/ :: http://myspace.com/dfx_dj

maybe we can have special contest months, in which we allow software mixed sets only, ableton, traktor, vdj and all that. maybe next month?

Designer liquid laundry soap, "Puretergent," announces retail debut in Seattle; in-store demos slated throughout March
OAKLAND, Calif., Feb. 25, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Puretergent, a natural laundry soap formulated to love your fabrics and your skin while providing maximum stain fighting punch, debuts this week in PCC Natural Markets, with nine locations in the Greater Seattle area.
Puretergent leaves clothes clean and soft without the sticky residue of conventional detergents, and is packaged in an ergonomic pouch containing one-eighth of the plastic of other liquid laundry soap containers.
Julia Fry, a former fashion designer and life-long lover of fabrics, is the founder and CEO of Puretergent, based in Oakland, Calif. Fry worked as a designer in the fashion industry in New York City and San Francisco for 20 years.
"Fashion designers write the care instructions for every garment. You're always thinking about laundry, collection after collection," Julia says. "I was always dismayed that fabrics that started off nice and soft came out of the washing machine super stiff and crunchy from chemical residue left behind by conventional detergents."
Fry, who thinks we should clean clothes in the same way we care for our skin and hair, got obsessed with creating a natural laundry soap that rinsed free, and that delivered on stain fighting performance while protecting clothes from harsh chemicals and scents.
Each of Puretergent's 50-wash pouches is comparably priced to, and outperforms, other detergents on most stains. While each of Puretergent's three formulations smell great during the wash cycle, the scents don't linger.
The bright blue, "Fresh" pouch of Puretergent tackles grimy kitchen stains, stinky gym clothes, and is the 'everyday laundress,' the purple formula, "Calm," keeps colors vibrant; and the yellow "Gentle" pouch is for delicates, baby's clothes and linens.
In-store demonstrations at PCC are scheduled for March 2013; visit www.puretergent.com for more information.
About Puretergent
Puretergent is a natural liquid laundry soap packaged in a friendly ergonomic pouch. Fragrance-free, hypoallergenic and biodegradable, Puretergent contains botanical compounds, plant-based conditioners, natural degreasing agents and essential oils. Puretergent rinses clean, leaving behind none of the chemical-soap residue of conventional laundry detergents that can dull colors, ravage fabrics and cause skin irritation. Available in three formulations -- calm, fresh and gentle -- Puretergent comes in 50 ounce, environmentally-friendly pouches that contain eight times less plastic than most detergent bottles. Puretergent was created by Julia Fry, a former fashion designer in New York and San Francisco. With Puretergent, clothes feel softer, last longer and look better.

GALLIPOLIS, Ohio — The Ohio Valley Christian soccer team defeated Calvary 6-2 Tuesday night to improve to 7-3-0 on the season.
Chance Burleson got the game started quickley with a goal in the first minute of the game to put OVCS up one. Carter Bentley tied the game up at one with a goal in the fifth minute for Calvary. Bentley gave the guests the lead in the 23rd minute, but Burleson gave the lead back to the Defenders with two goals in the 35th minute. The first of Burleson's goals at the 35th minute came on a free kick from 22 yards out, and his second goal of the minute gave him the hat trick and the Defenders the 3-2 halftime lead.
Caleb McKitrick scored his first goal of the game 30 seconds into the second half off of the Richard Bowman assist. Just minutes later McKitrick added another goal, this time the assist was from Rachel Haddad. Burleson got his fourth goal of the game in the 67th minute and Ohio Valley Christian took the 6-2 victory.
Burleson had four goals for the Defenders, while McKitrick had two. Mckitrick, Haddad and Richard Bowman each had an assist on the night. Marshall Hood recorded three saves for the victors while Calvary's goal keeper had nine saves. OVCS held a 15-5 advantage in shots on goal, as well as a 7-2 advantage in corner kicks.

How to spot an interviewer's red flags

Employers expect steady spring hiring
Hiring is expected to remain on a steady course over the next three months, according to CareerBuilder's latest job forecast. Twenty-six percent of employers plan to increase full-time, permanent headcount in Q2, on par with the previous two quarters, but trending below Q2 estimates last year.

You're working but you're not exactly thrilled with your job. But you're getting a paycheck and paying the bills, so you can't complain, right?

Social-media websites aren't just for catching up with friends anymore.

Fired: Has employer broken the law?
Being dismissed unfairly can be a traumatic experience, not to mention financially damaging. It is well known that most people employed in the U.S. are subject to "dismissal at will." However, this doesn't mean that your employer has unrestricted freedom to fire you. In some circumstances, an employer may act unlawfully in dismissing someone. This is called "wrongful dismissal;" also known as "wrongful termination" or "wrongful discharge."

Bottom line: the brand you choose time and time again is your go-to because the brand made a promise of what it could deliver and you found it to be true.

Veterans face challenges as civilian job seekers
According to the July employment situation summary from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the unemployment rate for veterans who served from September 2001 to present was 8.9 percent. While the rate has greatly decreased from 12.4 percent a year prior, it's still several points higher than the national unemployment rate. What's more, a BLS study released in March found that 18 to 24-year-old male veterans who served during the same period had an unemployment rate of 29.1 percent, illustrating the challenges that many veterans encounter as they transition to the civilian workforce.

The state Legislature is working to enact three changes to animal fighting statutes in order to provide for tougher penalties for offenders.
It's already illegal to fight animals against each other or to gain proceeds from activity relating to the practice of animal fighting, under section 750.49 of the Michigan Penal Code, originally passed in 1931.
In particular, dogs and male roosters are often fought for sport.
The first measure, Senate Bill 356 introduced by Sen. Rick Jones, R-Grand Ledge, would allow law enforcement agencies to seize profits gained from animal fighting. Proceeds would go to local government or the state.
Senate Bill 358, introduced by Sen. Steven Bieda, D-Warren, makes animal fighting prosecutable under the state's racketeering statute allowing for tougher penalties.
Bieda said putting animal fighting in with the RICO, an organized crime statute, makes sense because of all the other crime associated with the practice.
"A lot of these dogfighting operations are fairly sophisticated illegal activities," he said. "There's a number of other illegal activities, illegal gambling, drugs (and) sometimes even prostitution involved."
These bills have been approved by both chambers of the Michigan legislature and await the signature of Gov. Rick Snyder.
A third potential change comes from House Bill 5789, sponsored by Andrea LaFontaine, R-Columbus Township, which would allow a county or private attorney to sue anyone using their property for illegal animal fighting activities.
Pam Porteous, who manages Animal Care Network in Pontiac, said that dogfighting is definitely a problem in the area. Continued...
"We see a lot of animals that are pretty scarred up and ripped up and bloody," Porteous said.
Although she said a lot of the animals found in this area actually fought in Detroit or Flint, there are some streetfighting operations in Pontiac.
"I think that there's a lot of street dogfighting in Pontiac where people will go into abandoned houses or basements or garages of vacant houses and do their fighting there at night or on the weekend," she said.
Kevin Hatman, public relations coordinator at the Michigan Humane Society, who testified on behalf of the legislation, said that dogfighting is big business.
"Tens of thousands of dollars can actually change hands betting on a dogfight," he said. "When dogfighting moves into an area, we see drugs move in, we see violence move in."
Porteous said this is consistent with her experience with dogs in high crime areas.
"I just think where (there are) high crime areas, everybody's got a pit bull," she said. "It happens in the more poverty-stricken areas."
Current penalties for dogfighting include fines, loss of pet ownership, community service and up to four years in prison.
Hatman said the inclusion of dogfighting under RICO law would allow for the pursuit of tougher penalties for those involved in organized rings.
"It's also going to allow law enforcement agencies to seize and forfeit property that's associated with dogfighting," he said. Continued...
Porteous said dogs that have been fought often have scarring on their faces, necks, and front legs.

PINEVILLE — After erasing an eight-point deficit in the final 2:40 of regulation, the Harlan Green Dragons' upset bid fell short 67-62 in overtime at Pineville on Tuesday.
Sophomore guard Cody Collett broke a 62-all tie with a three-pointer from deep along the right wing with 36 seconds to play. The Dragons tried to answer with a three of their own, but it was off the mark and David Allen was called for travelling as he got tangled up with a Pineville player on his way down with the rebound.
Senior guard Seth Jeffrey was fouled and hit both free throws to push the lead to five with 14 seconds to go and Harlan missed a pair of late 3s as the Lions held on.
Senior forward Jacob Skinner led a balanced Pineville offense with 17 points. He was joined in double-figures by Byron David Asher with 13 while John Simpson and Jeffrey both finished with 12.
Allen led the Dragons with 15 points, 14 of which came in the fourth quarter and overtime. Dylan McNeil added 13 and Isaiah Johnson nine.
It was a tight game throughout as Nathan Young scored all seven of his points in the first quarter to help the Dragons to an 18-16 lead. Jeffrey hit a pair of 3s to lead Pineville with six points in the quarter.
McNeil hit two 3s for Harlan in the second period on his way to eight points and Johnson added six. Meanwhile the Lions got six points from Asher, four from Skinner and a big 3 from Jared Philpot but Harlan clung to a 33-31 lead at the half.

Another Simpson basket and a 3-pointer from Skinner pushed the lead to 50-44 with 4:04 left in regulation. Allen answered with a 3, but a basket from Skinner and a 3 from Jeffrey gave the Lions their biggest lead of the night at 55-47 with 2:50 to play in the fourth quarter.
Allen hit another 3 and later converted a three-point play after a steal to bring Harlan within 55-53 with 1:16 left in regulation.

Johnson also went 1-of-2 from the line to make it a two-point game again. Collett and then Jeffrey both missed the front end of the bonus over the next 30 seconds and Harlan's Caleb Hogue hit a short jumper with 5.3 seconds left in the fourth quarter to tie the game at 56 and force overtime.
