It dawned on me today while I was putting up stories on our website how much simpler the process has become since we started using ROAR.

My wife Carol thanks them for providing a system that works so she doesn't have to listen to me grumble about one that... Full story

Publisher's Note - We have a lot of information coming across our desks. Occasionally we decide to print some of it so our readers can determine its veracity.

This is why they created 'Sanctuary' cities and states. Simply by including their numbers as part of the population in the US Census, they get MOUNTAINS of money from the federal... Full story

Best of all, the innovative device doesn't even need to be removed to use the vessel. Wheel-a-Weigh is built to last using 316 stainless steel. The pivo... Full story
The effort to prevent the spread of quagga mussels throughout fresh water lakes and rivers in the western United States has been ongoing since 2007 when the harmful mollusks were initially discovered in Lake Mead and specific portions of the Colorado River including Lake Havasu. Although numerous containment strategies have been employed by various local, state and federal agencies during the past ten years, quaggas have proven to be a stubborn and virtually unstoppable adversary, infecting a...

I recently saw a report on one of the local Arizona news channels on plogging. The report showed a group of people exercising and getting ready to do some trash cleanup along the Salt River. According to Wikipedia Plogging is a combination of jogging and picking up litter. The term comes from the Swedish term plocka upp. What I didn't see in their report was any reference to cleanup along our border or in our public lands. Don McDowell addresses border clean up in his article Congress Explores... Full story

After living with a family for over 16 years, he was abandoned in their home when they moved. A neighbor alerted a... Full story
