Rails 3.2.11 JavaScript properties stuck in loop on page load in browser

Locally, when I install the rails ( rails s

) project and view my log file, I can initially see my javascript resources load just fine

Started GET "/assets/jquery.js?body=1" for 127.0.0.1 at 2013-02-04 09:46:56 -0600
Served asset /jquery.js - 304 Not Modified (26ms)

      

        
        
        
      

    

But for some reason the assets start trying to reload themselves and this is the result of the reload:

Started GET "/assets/jquery.js?body=1&_=1359992817255" for 127.0.0.1 at 2013-02-04 09:46:57 -0600
Served asset /jquery.js - 200 OK (0ms)

      

        
        
        
      

    

I can't figure it out and nothing has changed in my application to trigger this. Does anyone else have this problem?

Also, this is my GemFile:

This problem started after I updated to the latest version of Rails
