The annual Marine Corps Birthday event happens each year on Nov. 10, celebrating the day in 1775 when the Marine Corps was founded before the United States of America was even a country. Already, the Army, Navy and Marine Corps were created to protect the fledgling country.
This year, the Marine Corps celebrates its 250th birthday. According to the moderator and one of the organizers of the event, Mst. Gy. Sgt Dean Bearup, the banquet celebrating this milestone anniversary brought about 180 veterans of all armed services and guests to celebrate the event.

On November 13 Attorney General Raul Torrez once again tried to badger Sixth Judicial District Judge Jarod Hofacket into reinstating parts of the AG's lawsuit against Dr. Shepard. In a previous Beat article*, the weaknesses of the AG's original lawsuit were listed by Dr. Shepard's attorney. Earlier the judge dismissed parts of the lawsuit in August. But now the AG is trying to get them reinstated.
Shepard's attorney is arguing that a reconsideration of a judge's order should only come under one of three scenarios — a change in fact, a change in law, or to correct errors. Since this hasn't occurred, the AG's request should be ignored.
In reading the state attorney's argument for reopening the parts of the case dismissed, it appears that the state merely wants to harass Dr. Shepard. Is that because Shepard filed a civil RICO** lawsuit against people Santa Fe wants to protect?
