Some Pigs are More Equal than Others The way our government is running, it is OK for Congress to engage in insider trading, 3-letter agencies to make rules that we are expected to follow even if Congress has not passed a law regarding them, and for the government as a whole to spend more money than we have. While the citizens here struggle to make ends meet, our government is sending billions of dollars to other countries. Almost 92% of the countries in the world receive financial assistance from the U.S.! What if we had term limits for all elected officials? What if we just didn't fund agencies that couldn't pass an audit? What if Congress only got paid if there was money left at the end of the year? Join us as we discuss the problems and possible solutions to the financial insanity going on right now!

https://stan.store/autumnacresminipetpigs/p/are-pigs-legal-in-your-city           In this episode, Autumn talks about an important question pig owners face: Are pigs legal in my area? Whether you're already a pig parent or thinking about becoming one, understanding your city or county's zoning laws is critical to keeping your pig safe and your family protected from unexpected legal trouble.           Autumn explains why zoning ordinances matter, how municipalities typically classify pigs, and what can happen if a pig is kept in a zone where they aren't permitted. From neighbor complaints to fines, forced removal, or even animal seizure, she breaks down the real-world consequences pig owners need to be aware of.           Listeners are guided step-by-step through the process of finding their local rules—including how to search municipal codes, which offices to call, what exact questions to ask, and what documentation to request and save. Autumn provides clear scripts to help owners get written confirmation of the law so they're protected if a complaint ever arises.           The episode also explores why pigs are sometimes banned, touching on nuisance concerns, public health regulations, and animal control limitations. Autumn then outlines how many pig owners have successfully changed outdated ordinances, using model zoning packets, community support, and respectful advocacy to propose fair and enforceable solutions.           Practical, detailed, and empowering, this episode gives pig owners the knowledge they need to understand their local laws, navigate issues confidently, and advocate for pet pigs in their communities.

Sarah Boxer is foremost a thinker! The author of s⁠everal books, graphic novels and articles for many storied publications such as the New York Times, The New York Review of Books, The Atlantic, Brooklyn Rail and many more. Dr. Lisa began her career as a self-proclaimed psychotherapist in 2001 and Sarah, on staff at the Arts & Ideas desk at the NY Times, wrote a feature story on Psychotherapy LIVE! READ IT HERE Lisa's live stage show where she did "Psychotherapy" on audience volunteers. A LOT has happened in the last 25 years. Sarah has a 22 year old son and she's putting the finishing touches on a book of her drawings she did of him from birth to age 5 that is to be published soon. She discusses what effect it had on her to do those drawings, how she first dived into Freud's writing at age 15 (her father had his books in the house) and her impression of Psychotherapy LIVE! all those years ago (a good impression!) It's compelling to find these women with their separate journeys back in the same room, years away from when they first met in July, 2002.

For more detail, see my CV.  WHO WAS I?​​For many years I worked at The New York Times  (1989-2006) where I was, at various points, a photo critic, a Web critic, an arts reporter, an editor at The Week in Review, and an editor at The Book Review.  In 2008 Vintage published Ultimate Blogs: Masterworks From the Wild Web, an anthology that I edited. My first book, published by Pantheon in 2001 was In the Floyd Archives.

Day 1,393.Today, as EU leaders meet to decide what – if anything – to do with frozen Russian assets, we examine just how consequential this moment could be for the bloc and for European security more broadly. We also analyse how Vladimir Putin has deliberately shifted his language to appeal to Donald Trump, and track another attack on a Russian oil tanker as Moscow's Black Sea Fleet appears to have blockaded itself inside Novorossiysk rather than risk further Ukrainian drone strikes.ContributorsDominic Nicholls (Associate Editor of Defence). @DomNicholls on X.Francis Dearnley (Executive Editor for Audio). @FrancisDearnley on X.Joe Barnes (Brussels Correspondent). @Barnes_Joe on X.SIGN UP TO THE ‘UKRAINE: THE LATEST' WEEKLY NEWSLETTER:http://telegraph.co.uk/ukrainenewsletter Each week, Dom Nicholls and Francis Dearnley answer your questions, provide recommended reading, and give exclusive analysis and behind-the-scenes insights – plus maps of the frontlines and diagrams of weapons to complement our daily reporting.

On this episode of the Panoramic Outdoors podcast, we talk with Devon from Squeal on Pigs about the growing issue of wild pigs in Manitoba. Devon explains how the non-profit program was built to support landowners through education, coordination, and trust—not enforcement or blame. We break down how wild pigs got here, why they're so difficult to control, and the real damage they cause to agriculture, habitat, and rural communities. Devon also clears up common myths, and why reporting pig activity is critical. This episode is a straight-up conversation about a serious problem and a practical, landowner-first approach to keeping Manitoba's landscapes wild.   Thank you to our sponsors:  https://www.ihunterapp.com/  https://www.heightsoutdoors.com/  https://orvsappliance.com/ https://www.redneckhuntingcanada.com/

The Colorado Beetle which is a major threat to potato crops has been officially eradicated from the UK. It was last identified on a farm in Kent in 2023.

The news this Fall that a population of Feral Hogs was confirmed in Montana, sent a shockwave through the ag industry. In a state that has been on high alert for feral swine outbreaks for several years, suddenly the word came that dozens of wild hogs were reported ranging in a brushy waterway along Montana’s Hi-Line. Feral swine are an invasive, non-native species, considered one of the worst invasive species in the world. They are prolific breeders, they are highly adaptable, and can cause devastating impacts. We know how damaging wild hogs have been in other states, including North Dakota. And we are aware of another population of wild hogs that is spreading to the north of us in Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba. But we thought Montana was still free of this menace. Where were they found in Montana? How many wild hogs are at that location? How did those hogs get there? How do we deal with them? Can they be eradicated? In this podcast Taylor Brown dives into those questions and a lot more with Montana State Veterinarian, Dr. Tahnee Szymanski, who activated the team at the Montana Department of Livestock, to respond to what might be the largest reported outbreak of Feral Swine in Montana’s history.

          In this week's episode, Autumn tackles a challenge that every pig parent in colder climates faces: winter. Cold temperatures, snow, rain, and icy ground can make even the most well-trained pig slam on the brakes at the door. But keeping your pig indoors all winter leads to boredom, destructive behaviors, potty accidents, and increased irritability.           Autumn breaks down a practical, compassionate approach to winter pig care with two major goals:     1.    Motivating your pig to go outside despite the weather, and     2.    Keeping them mentally and physically enriched indoors.          Listeners will learn why forcing a pig outside backfires, and how positive experiences—like feeding outdoors, strategic treat use, early desensitization to jackets or capes, and creating safe, walkable outdoor paths—help pigs stay confident and willing to venture out.           Autumn also shares her top indoor enrichment ideas to curb boredom and prevent behavior issues during long winter days. From heat sources and rooting boxes to treat-dispensing toys, licky mats, agility practice, cardboard destruction, and even tarps for sensory play, these activities keep pigs stimulated, happy, and calm when outside time is limited.            Whether you're preparing for your first winter with a pig or looking to make this season smoother than years past, this episode offers inspiration, actionable steps, and reassurance that with the right preparation, winter truly can be manageable for both you and your pig.

He tells his daughter, Hero, that a distinguished young soldier named Claudio is accompanying the prince. Leonato's niece, Beatrice, asks about a soldier named Benedick, with whom she has some history. Don Pedro arrives and steps off his ship with his brother, Don John, whose past transgressions he's recently forgiven. Benedick and Claudio step off the ship with Borachio, who has a quick aside with his old flame, Margaret, Beatrice's trusted servant. Beatrice and Benedick sling a few quick insults at each other before Don Pedro tells his soldiers that Leonato has invited them to stay for a month at his villa. As they leave the port, Claudio confides in Benedick that he's in love with Hero. Benedick tells Don Pedro, who encourages the match. In the limousine on the way to Leonato's villa, Don Pedro offers to help Claudio woo Hero at the upcoming masquerade ball. A few minutes later, in the kitchen of the villa where a feast is being prepared, Leonato's sister, Antonia, tells him that her dresser told her that her driver overheard Don Pedro telling Claudio that he loves Hero. That evening, Don John broods in a guest house as his friend, Conrade, tries to cheer him up. When the drunken Borachio arrives to say he heard Don Pedro talking to Claudio about how to woo Hero, Don John seizes the opportunity to make some mischief.

https://stan.store/autumnacresminipetpigs/p/8-lessons-i-learned-from-temple-grandin           In this deeply insightful episode of The Pet Pig Podcast, Autumn shares the lessons that have shaped her understanding of pig behavior, pig emotions, and what it truly means to care for them well—through the lens of pioneering animal behaviorist Temple Grandin.          Drawing from Grandin's influential work in animal welfare and livestock handling, Autumn breaks down eight powerful principles that every pig parent can apply at home. These lessons reveal how pigs think, how they perceive the world, and how small changes in their environment and handling can dramatically improve their confidence, comfort, and behavior.           Listeners will learn:     •    Why pigs "think in pictures," and how sensory details—shadows, reflections, dangling objects—can startle or overwhelm them.     •    How understanding the flight zone and point of balance can reduce stress and build trust during interactions or training.     •    The importance of eliminating visual distractions and creating calm, predictable environments.     •    How gradual acclimation can transform fearful behaviors into confident exploration (including Autumn's personal ramp-training breakthrough!).     •    Why the caretaker's attitude, consistency, and presence are the core of good pig welfare.     •    How genetics and temperament play a meaningful role in a pig's behavior and stress response.     •    Why enrichment isn't optional—pigs require rooting, exploring, and mental stimulation to truly thrive.     •    And finally, how empathy, patience, and understanding a pig's inner world are essential to building a strong, healthy relationship.          Autumn also reflects on the difference between livestock and pets, emphasizing that ethical treatment is a universal responsibility. No matter a pig's role, their emotional experience matters. This episode is perfect for anyone who wants to better understand their pig, improve training success, reduce fear-based behaviors, and deepen their bond.  Autumn's Links:  Website: https://www.autumnacresminipetpigs.com/ Email: https://stan.store/autumnacresminipetpigs Educational Membership Group: https://stan.store/autumnacresminipetpigs/p/autumn-acres-educational-membership-group Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/autumnacresminipetpigs/ Facebook:  HTTP://Facebook.com/autumnacresminipetpigs Free Community: https://stan.store/autumnacresminipetpigs/p/autumn-acres-free-community YouTube: https://youtube.com/channel/UCGue5Kp5AwOXkReCGPUyImA Stan Store: https://stan.store/autumnacresminipetpigs Newsletter: https://stan.store/autumnacresminipetpigs

You may have heard the story of Jesus casting out demons into pigs from Mark 5:1-20.

In Week 3 of "All I Need is a Miracle," we answer that question and find out how it still applies to us today!

Green & Red has been at the forefront of refuting the various romantic versions, lies,and conspiracy theories about JFK and we once again discuss the reality of Kennedy. For decades now, especially after Oliver Stone's JFK created the idea that Kennedy had changed course and was going to withdraw from Vietnam, develop a relationship with Cuba, and end the Cold War, various pundits and commentators, including many on the Left, have accepted Stone's revisionist ideas and now present them as fact.But the reality, rooted in documents and archives, is very different. Kennedy was a consummate Cold Warrior who came to office dedicated to flex American muscle and extend American empire. We began by discussing his approach to Latin America, where he made the overthrow of Castro in Cuba one of his first priorities at the Bay of Pigs and then, despite Stone's insistence he'd had a change of heart and mind after the Missile Crisis continued to subvert Cuba in the hopes of ousting the government there. Meanwhile, he developed an internal security model for all of Latin America in order to prevent Left movements from gaining momentum. In this context he also subverted governments in places like Brazil and Guyana.Of course, the main point of Stone's argument related to Vietnam, where he and his followers claim that JFK had decided to wind down and withdraw from Vietnam in 1963. The reality was very different. Kennedy actually ignored the advice of U.S. military officials, who consistently warned that Vietnam was not an American security priority, that American troops weren't well-trained and prepared to fight a jungle guerrilla war, and he authorized a coup against Ngo Dinh Diem, surely a sign that he was not preparing a withdrawal.Conspiracies are anti-political . . . the seek good individuals and heroes and posit that nefarious characters in the "deep state" are upending the better angels in government. These theories distract us, especially on the Left, from analyzing systems and structures, like the ruling class. The continued obsession with Stone's conspiracies may be lucrative for some, but they're a dead end for people trying to make sense of American power and resist it.For more on this, see "JFK: 60 Years of Myths and Disinformation" with links to relevant articles and podcasts, at https://afflictthecomfortable.org/2023/11/22/jfk-60-years-of-myths-and-disinformation/——————-
