LAKESHORE PROPERTY OWNERS AND DNR
The Wisconsin DNR has been holding hearings in "seeking public imput" chiefly in college towns within the state in which docks, property use, and set back lines will be rigidly regulated by the DNR. The DNR has not made it clear what would happen if such property gets sold once thought grandfathered in.
The DNR has received little notice by local TV news casts and most of the information when and where such hearings are to be held has been relegated to stations with conservative talk radio show hosts.
Earlier Republican state regulators in the state senate which has turned over to the democrats since the 06 election tried to curtail the intrusiveness of the DNR in Wisconsin living by limiting state funds but the bill was vetoed by Governor Doyle.
One such host Milwaukee's Jeff Wagner of WTMJ am 620 was leading a crusade on the DNR but suddenly dropped out
The Wisconsin state legislature has come up with
the Gunderson-Garth Assembly bill 850 designed to reign in the powers of the DNR
after that state agency decided to create new regulations about water front
piers and docks (known as NR 325). The regulation required new "permit" fees
ranging from $50 to $500 for boat docks that can only be used for the docking of
boats and could not set out into the water any furthur than a 3 foot depth.
Docks which are 6 feet in depth would be grandfathered in. Other uses such as
simply using the dock as a platform to watch the sunset, fish off of, have a
picnic on, apparently were not given consideration or considered suitable
activity to be used for a "dock" when the WI DNR drafted its regulations.
After an outcry the DNR revised its position exempted its fee demand for many
current docks and "grandfathered" in. But "supporters of primordial appearances"
(Enviornmental extremists) claim those docks are appendages that impede nature
and all its glory.
This fight however may appear to be around waters swirling about those docks
creating regulations which have become a lake lot or property owners Draconian
malison (curse).note: The term Draconian is named after Draco, a
7th century BC Athenian (Greek) leader infamous for his complex rules and laws.
but in reality is much muddier than that. Its about the power
the state legislature has given the DNR to enter property without warrants,
search, and seizure. Tracking those DNR abuses with voice or text complaints by
individuals is JEFF WAGNER of Milwaukee's am 620's WTMJ on his 12-2pm show and
logged in his blog. Example; Incident in Greenbush TownshipWTMJ am
Supporters of the DNR position range from urban area newspapers, Milwaukee
Journal Sentinel, Sheboygan as well as Madison papers who warn of 1000 foot
docks (who wants that ?) and little fishies unable to procreate. As well as a
group with a "Googled" site which seems to support 850 but then lists all the
contributers to the legislators supporting this legislation. Showing more are
supporting the measure that those opposed to it.
CWD LINK FOUND IN DIRT
A mineral found in certain types of clays aids deer CWD. Chronic Wasting Disease known as CWD has been found to spread faster when bottom grazers such as sheep and deer feed off of pastures containing the mineral known as montmonillonite which is found in clays. The discovery was made in UW Madison and reported in such scientific journals as the UK's New Scientist CWD IFO
PARK ON LAKE NECEDAH OFFERS FINE VIEW OF GROWING LAKE
A view of Necedah lake has been can be had at Necedah Park near the junction of state highways 21 and 80 which meet at the edge of Necedah's downtown just beyond the State hwy 21 bridge and dam. The park was once used by various vendors selling everything from local produce to fireworks. The lake created by the Necedah dam which had to be rebuilt after failing is considered still too shallow to allow boat launching from the newly created park.
FISHINGS GREAT ON CASTLE ROCK LAKE
On Wisconsin's fourth largest lake flowage with several boat
landing facilities Castle Rock Lake, a lake noted for its content of Walleye and
Bass, local Bassmasters held a Bass and Walleye competition the last
Sunday in June (25th).
.The first place prize of $1000 was based on a full field of 40 boats. With
2nd place $500, 3rd place $250, 4th Place $150, 5th place $100, and prizes of
$80.each will be awarded to 6th to 10th place For more

BIG FLATS BUSINESS CHANGES
A business change has occured in the Adams county township of Big Flats. Big Flats once upon a time supported a grocery store with a meeting hall located at county road C and highway 13 as well as a restaurant across the street until destroyed by a tornado. The tavern was famous for a mysterious dissapearance of an Adams county registered guide connected to Costra Nostra mobster Jack DeGeorge's son. DeGeorge owned a 500 acre Black Angus ranch nearby and the tavern at one time probably had more patrons that were members of the FBI and big city reporters than locals While lakeless, Big Flats main connection runs along state highway 13 and is sandwiched in between the townships of Preston (which includes two Lakes Friendship, which residents at one time called it "Friendship Pond" and Roche-a-Cri lake and Rome township. Rome besides Petenwell, has Sherwood, and Camaelot, dam created lakes.
The Big Flats business change the is purchase of "Bill & Rita's tavern" liquor license and transfered to Pinleland Camp Ground. Pineland located directly on highway 13 was limited to a beer and wine license tavern and sets directly across the street from "Cats" Down The Road Tavern. Cats is reported to be considering constructing an expansion of a new unit which is to be set furthur back off highway 13 .

MANDATORY ETHANOL BILL EVAPORATES WITH LITTLE MSM MENTION
DESPITE THIS NECEDAH PLANNED ETHANOL PLANT SHOULD CONTINUE
If the idea was to give ethanol a leg
up by requiring every gas station in the state to mix 10% of ethanol into every
gas pump and thus force its use. The bill to do so escaped into the "ethers".
With very little if any TV mention about the effort to "mandate" ethanol use
this bill went the way of the Will-o the whisp being defeated 3/9/06. Somehow
this bill is reminescent of the movie about baseball "The Field of Dreams" and
if you build it they will come mentality. They forgot to count how many players
can play the game. When used in small gas engines it screws them up.
The mandate was narrowly rejected despite being pushed by Wisconsin state bi
partisan legislators including Republicans Congressman Mark Green who is running
for governor against Doyle in November, and Senate leader Dale Schultz whos
district is located in its where corn gets grown great western divide, Schults
introduced the bill after Governor Doyle indicated his support. While
Republicans and some Milwaukee Democrats in its eastern half which is mainly
light manufacturing opposed it.
If Henry Ford and his Model T were still around that bill would have sailed
through no problema. For whatever problems its use caused would have been
solved. Ford designed that 4 banger for multi fuel use.
The problems with ethanol is that its a highly evaporative excellent solvent.
If that model T with its advance spark adjustment mounted in its steering column
were still around. Problems like fiberglass gas tanks using certain epoxies
which would not disolve and rupture or corrode the tank if steel as they have in
pleasure boats of a certain age would never happen.
The utility engine (mowers,chain saws, etc) modifications are simple and need
not be designed for dedicated to single (ethanol only) fuel use. Fuel caps
designed for vented on use demand, inert (ethanol accellerates rust) stainless
steel or fiberglass gas tanks would be developed so that the fuel would not
evaporate from the fuel tank. This evaporation may also be causing sediments to
settle in the bottom of the tank causing problems. Non reactive to ethanol fuel
lines would be off the shelf, and heated air fuel delivery systems to increase
its kick would level its performance alcohol vs gas complaints. Oh if only the
Model T was still around but it aint. But that technology is in place in Brazil
Meanwhile the producers can work on lowering per gallon processing costs.
Offer incentives particularly to Wisconsin small engine manufacturers to modify
their products to use ethanol would help. These are modifications which can be
done without making an engine dedicated to a single fuel (gas) which is the
present case. They're right about one thing Ethanol is here to stay and
investors into this project will make money and by the time this plant is up and
producing many of these problems will be addressed and perhaps other markets for
its use open up.

ANTI SMOKERS USING MADISON SMOKE TO CLEAR MILWAUKEE BARS Madison bars already cleared of smoke and customers by as much as 30% are
being touted in a Milwaukee radio commercial citing phoney statistics claiming
improved business for Madison nite spots and corner bars in a drive to shut down
smoking in Milwaukee emporiums of cheer and discussion.
The ads aired on Milwaukee stations cites a refuted hyperbolic study of
second hand smoke as the basis for the smoking ban. When questioned by talk show
hosts or by opponents, supporters of the ban become militant and confrontational
insisting tavern owners have no rights because of "health reasons" citing the
flawed study which used a questionable statistic base and medical extrapolations
by the EPA to discourage smoking as cited by a Appeals Court link junk science

CONGRESS GIVES BOOSTER SEAT MAKERS A BOOST
Wisconsin capitulated when faced with another
one of those US DOT mandatories if a state wishes to obtain road funds from the
US DOT . Like the .8 alcohol blood limit to prevent drunk driving all of which
resulted in increased revnue for local jurisdictions but did not reduce the
problem drivers.
This time it is the mandatory use
of childrens booster seats for all children up to age 8,where the US Department
Of Transportation will hand over a couple million (2.5 which would pave perhaps
two miles of interstate) if that state makes a booster seat mandatory for all
kids under 4'9" tall weighing less than 80 lbs up to the age of
8.
Its been reported that pushing the measure were
booster seat makers citing a series of self serving widely circulated
unchallanged safety studies for the year 1998.
What
is interesting about this dictum comming from the middleman, a non elected by,
non answerable to no one, centralized authority. In charge of redistributing
funds to, the entities they originally collected from, calling for "booster
seats" not booster cushions.
Booster cushions
cheaper priced which could raise the childs height to make a vehicle
manufacturers seat more child restraint effective. The US DOT of course could
not require the vehicle manufactuer to redesign the type of restraint so that it
could be child effective.Why, that would add to the cost of the vehicle ! Who
better to pass the cost on and punish those with large
familys.
According to statistics from the Wisconsin
Department of Transportation child fatalities within a five year period found
where seat restraints were used was 12. But circumstances of accident not
explained even if "booster seats" were used would have mattered much such as a
18 wheeler slide slamming into a van at 80 mph loaded with kids
.
Opposed to the measure expected to pass on a big
news coverage day (see following article) were The Sheriff Police Officers
Association of Wisconsin, several other Police Officer organizations, who will
be requesting portable hospital type height and weight scales, and individual
parents. Favoring passage was the AAA and booster seat mfgrs
FROM CHEEZLAND TO FLATLAND ONE THING IS FOR SURE
EVERY FRIDAY IS
VETO DAY
IN THE "PEOPLES REPUBLIC OF MADISON" WI USA
MONITORING THE MONITORS OF WISCONSIN'S LEGISLATURE
Wisconsin and Illinois drives to limit the
ammount of what is called non economic damages in medical malpractice suits as
well as limits on product liability while gearing up in Illinois with a slew of
radio commercials have run into roadblocks in Wisconsin's case by Governor Doyle
stop stick vetos quietly placed in the road to legislation on the 12/06,
12/20th, and 12/27th weekends.
In Wisconsin the expected veto on malpractice non economic awards went
unobserved by the talkies (talk radio show hosts) because of the heavy vote
drive to get listeners to call their state senators for a yea vote to cancel
Wisconsin's enacted in 1925 gasoline automatic sales tax increase which within
those period of years has allowed Wisconsin the dubious distinction of having
the highest sales tax on gasoline (2006 per gallon 33 cents) in the nation. WTMJ
am 620 talkers Charlie Sykes and Jeff Wagner shows played important roles in
bringing these items to public attention.
That retro gas tax measure split both party's leadership, with key Republican
and Democratic party leaders supporting a nay vote. The Nay sayers claimed the
raise was incremental, and is a modest $7 a year increase for the average driver
and would go to maintain a road system which is one of the best in the nation.
Some Yea sayers blamed the governor for raiding the gas taxes billion $ fund
diverting millions to support WEAC (Wisconsin teachers union) school
improvements, Still others opposed the principle of automatic taxing sans a
taxpayer OK.
The gas vote was announced on all local TV newscasts but the veto of the
reform of non economic damages in medical malpractice suits was not featured on
the ABC, CBS, or NBC affiliates monitored by The US Mat. The reform legislation
passed by both Wisconsin houses and vetoed by the governor was reaction to the
Wisconsin Supreme Court which ruled the limits on medical malpractice non
economic awards of a previous piece of legislation unconstitional.
That ruling caused a national reaction including an article in The Wall
Street Journal warning (paraphrased) that if that and a previous ruling allowing
suits against against manufacturers (Lead Paint ruling where a paint
manufacturer could be sued for lead paint even if they never made lead paint)
was not changed Wisconsin is about to become (our US MAT term) a litigators
lithosphere.
The no to,retro gasoline tax bill passed the WI senate on 12/7 then moved on
to the WI house where the yeas carried and the Governor (Doyle (D)) citing
(polls which showed residents are 80% in favor of repeal) he was (suddenly)
opposed to the automatic taxing principal signed the reform measure into law.
Meantime the reform measure limiting non economic damages in medical
malpractice suits lingered in the Wisconsin state legislature as well as
manufacturing liability reform (Prevent legal to sue a paint manufacturer for
lead paint even though they never made the stuff) legislation.
Commercials supporting defeat of these two reform measures blaming those
dirty Republicans which want to take money from starving babys cropped up
sponsored by organizations with curious names but sound suspiciously like a
bunch of greedy lawyers.
The manufacturing reform measure which would correct the issue raised by The
Wall Street Journal reached the Governors desk on Jan 5th. Whereupon Wisconsin's
Governor Doyle on Jan 6th (Friday slow news day also Epiphany) gave Wisconsin's
voters an Epiphany of their own, and practiced true "christian charity" by
giving his major contributers (trial lawyers) a "Little Christmas" gift of their
own by an expected veto.
The veto was only given the briefest of mentions on tv stations monitored by
The US Mat..
Making up for a no veto Friday 13th,which was missed. The Wisconsin governor
vetoed the concealed gun carry bill Friday Jan 20th and the economic reforms
tort reform.
On Jan 31st 06 after much promotion and heavy coverage pro but mostly con by
the media the concealed gun carry veto overide carried in the Senate but failed
in the Wisconsin house by two needed votes.These were cast by 2 Democratic State
Reps (Assmebly members)that initially supported the measure. This issue however
is expected to be (no radio talkies push like there was to repeal retro gas tax
Why? will be big election issue) pursued in the governors race as Wisconsinites
gear up for the November 06 election.
Wisconsin campaign disclosures don't require an
organization supporting a given piece of legislation to list where their money
is comming from as they do with candidates. Its that announcement that is on a
candidates print, radio, or TV advertising that begins with "a copy of our
financial disclosures is on file with" and that is a piece of legislation every
state should have. .
Note much of the above is follow up is from WTMJ am 620 Charlie
Sykes and later Jeff Wagner's talk shows .Another interesting shard from
Sykes.TEACHER UNION DOUBLE DIPPING. 80% of all WEAC (Wisconsin Education
Association Council, the WI teachers union) school district contracts use WEAC
own health care system as members primary health care provider known as WEA
TRUST which demands a 100% district taxpayer paid health care coverage for each
teacher . WEAC then charges those respective districts (taxpayers) up to 100%
more than competing health care providers.Sykes cited a school district
Cedarburg, where a Cedarburg school board member after getting competeing
estimates from other health care providers found the difference for the same
coverage was $1,000,000. Thats big bucks the kiddies ain't getting!
IS WISCONSIN PUSSY FERAL OR JUST WILD??
Here is another example of
when local media leaves out facts about an issue it dies...
Tips on ways to prepare, cook,stew, bake,or BBQ, cat,and what to with cat fur
could soon become an industry in Wisconsin as hunters get set for the great cat
wrangling and ready for the estimated 2,000,000 round up of feral pussys preying
in Winconsin's forests and fields. If ! Naww !
Local media is having a field day with "Save Our Pussy" hype, not
reporting that it would be a change in a hunting classification and that its
legal in other states .
Feral cats have become an invasive species wiping out wild song bird
populations in the state and that population has grown so large that cats
(presently legally protected but shot anyway) would be included in the "pest" or
varmit hunting classification as is done in many states including neighboring
Minnesota....LATEST... BIAS REPORTING WINNING. WI Sec of DNR has bowed to
Madison PC types recently ruling that Wisconsin pussy is not feral just wild,
therefore free to kill off an estimated 200 million wild song birds...more as it
develops.BILL KILLED MEDIA BIAS WON.
US MAT EXCLUSIVE THE WISCONSIN PLATINUM CHARGE ID CARD
TALK RADIO
LOOK INTO THIS
Here is something
proponents of the badly needed Wisconsin election reform bill those radio talk
show hosts haven't brought up.
The Wisconsin State ID Card appears to be a revenue producer for the state
not a state service offered to its citizens .At one time it expired every 4
years (as opposed to a drivers license 8 years) that regulation has been
recently revised to 8 years.
Question; if this state issued ID card expires does that
mean the holder has expired ? Except for a change of address
why should an ID card expire in the first place ?
Then WDOT demands a
renewal for another $9. Why ?
Why does a Wisconsin ID card cost so much ? A Wisconsin ID card issued by its
department of transportation is a ID card w/ picture, requires a birth
certificate, (but exempts the drivers license from a birth certificate or a
social security number which is below federal standard) two other proofs of
residency and charges a whopping $9 bucks.
When Wiconsin's governor Doyle argues the high cost of an
id card as reason not to require one for voter id he must be refering to what
Wisconsin charges for an ID card. ID cards are free to seniors in many states
including Illinois or they charge a lot less .
