900 dead pigs found floating in Shanghai river

Sunday 10, 2013, 8:36 AM

BEIJING - Chinese officials say they have fished out 900 dead pigs from a Shanghai river that is a water source for city residents.

Officials are investigating where the pigs came from. A statement posted Saturday on the city's Agriculture Committee's website says they haven't found any evidence that the pigs were dumped into the river or of any animal epidemic.

The statement says the city and Songjiang district governments started retrieving the pigs on Friday night. By late Saturday afternoon they had recovered and disposed of more than 900.

The statement says the water and environmental protection bureaus are ramping up monitoring of the river's water quality. :puke:

Mark 5: 11-13

11 Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding.
12 And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.
13 And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine; and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand,) and were choked in the sea.

A buddy of mine (works for a TV station) got an advance, promotional copy of the DVD. Can't wait to make a copy of it and get the entire series commercial free! :seasix:

With Easter right around the corner, it's definitely must-see TV for a lot of folks.
