"The federal Department of Homeland Security gave {Keith County, NE]
$42,000 to buy state-of-the-art dive gear, including full-face masks,
underwater
lights and radios, and a Zodiac boat with side-scan sonar capable of mapping

federal dollars for cattle nose leads, halters and electric prods in case
terrorists
decided to mount biological warfare against cows."

in
4.5 million?
