It's likely that a significant number of Chattanoogans were surprised to learn last week that the city of Chattanooga has an official flag. And many who did know of its existence probably would be hard-pressed to accurately describe it. Mayor Ron Littlefield's desire to replace the current flag with a new design should bring heightened public awareness of one of the city's symbols. The haste with which the mayor would like to make the transition from old to new, however, is a bit unseemly.
The mayor wants the new flag -- two green stripes (representing the mountains) with a blue stripe (representing the Tennessee River) in the middle and the city seal in the center -- to be approved as quickly as possible. There's no need for hurry, though. Debate on such matters is always in order.
The mayor doesn't think so. He's demanding swift approval because he doesn't want a new flag to become a focus of debate. "The more you talk about it, the more divisive and controversial it becomes," the mayor says. That might be true, but if controversy arises about the flag, the issue requires a well-publicized public airing.
The proposed new flag is more distinctive and colorful than the current banner. The latter mimics the familiar red, white and blue Tennessee state flag, though it has dogwood petals surrounding a single star rather than the familiar three stars at its center. Those who prefer the old to the new or wonder what all the fuss is about, though, should be heard.
At least two City Council members agree. Andrae McGary wants public input. Deborah Scott says school children should have a role in the flag debate, perhaps by allowing them to vote on which they like best. Some sort of public participation does seem a reasonable alternative to Littlefield's demand for quick action. The council should allow for that within a reasonable timeframe. If there is a desire for such discussion, the council should honor rather than ignore it. This topic likely won't arise again for a while. If the city flag is to be redesigned, it would be good to give the idea a public hearing.
Wonder which friend of Littlefield's has a flag making business?
What? Are you folks suggesting there could be friends ready to take possession of public money without the benefit of advertising for bids or requests for proposals? Or, even worse, a fixed award outcome. No, say it is not so. That would be wrong.
Whenever politicians bring up some abstract concept like a morality topic or "the flag", it usually ends up being a smokescreen to distract us from what's really happening.
Act like reporters and start asking critical questions.
The school year just began. Right as that was starting up, Mayor Ron Littlefield, a man not known for his ability to plan ahead, began, of his own initiative, talking to the press about the city flag.
If that doesn't set off a reporter's Stink-O-Meter, then what does?
Given local Republicans' propensity for wrecking the school system, I'd suggest something was up. What just went unpaid for as the school year began? What ignorant blunder just almost caused a catastro-__ in local schools? Did bus drivers go unpaid? Did kids show up to classes that had no teachers? Did school employees fail to order books? Did essential servers crash? What happened?
We just saw last year, during a time that planning for this fall's school year opening, that our local school system was being wrecked by the "Slaves Learned to Read" ingenuity of local politicians. What kind of damage did they do then that we are just seeing now?
The school year just began. In a large government organization like a school system, today's success is banked on yesterday's planning. Most likely, that yesterday was a couple of quarters ago. During that time, employees were being unceremoniously dumped upon by local politicos. What task went undone as a direct result of the Mayor and the City Council's failure to understand their obligation to the public as leaders of public service employees?
How bad did Ron screw up this time?
This is a man who wrecked the financing for the Chattanooga Hamilton County Bicentennial Library. What kind of planning ahead do you think those politico cabals did for this school year? The failures we see today are a direct result of their failures to understand what was going on some months ago.
The city and the county have both been wrecked by political cabals. Both just started a school year. Now a politically unpopular mayor is talking about a straw man topic. Pay attention!
Chances that it's a coincidence that Mayor Ron Littlefield is talking about a flag as the school year opened after Republicans ousted the former superintendent? Low.
Remember all of those people who suddenly got "promotions" and "new jobs" as a result of that political mucking-out of local public services? How competent and efficient do you think they were in their first coordinating and planning meetings? And when would you expect those failures to hit the fan? How about at the beginning of the next full school year?
Find out what really happened.
An effort to include the public in the process, instead of, I have a flag approve it would have abated this entire situation. That is the point the Editor is making.. Most municipal flags are developed through a contest, or citizen team that outreaches to the public.
Communication with the public is helpful.
Let me tell you what flags are used for: communicating with large groups of people on a crowded battlefield. Rallying troops to the correct location. They are a medieval communication device.
A city flag has no useful purpose here. We only see one on display. One! It's in Miller Park. No one wakes up in the morning and says, "Man, if I only had a Chattanooga City flag to tell me where to go to meet the guys to beat back the barbarian horde. We need a good flag so that I can find my pals!" No one does this. No one needs a city flag. It's a nice idea, but no one needs a city flag.
Politicians talk about flags all the time.
Since flags are symbols, they are an ideal mechanism for getting people to think about abstract topics. Politicians like abstract topics because, being immaterial, the imagination can be twisted to allow most anyone to win any discussion by focusing on some positive quality. These discussions about flagging almost always have no real, useful, practical purpose. They mainly serve to providing politicians with practical attention for empty arguments. Guess what's happening here.
No one has had a consistent, daily, practical need for a fabric flag in a long time. In our society, we use street signs. Big metal signs on the Interstate fulfill the public's need for flags in today's world.
Why are politicians, of their own initiative, talking about flags as the school year began? What's one of the largest expenses a city and county has? It could be: medical care, utilities and schools. The school year just began. The Mayor is talking to you about a flag no one needs, uses or could recognize for any reason. His legacy is suing his way out of a recall. Our problems are that we have to live with decisions today that were made by a party that recklessly slashed at public service budgets and chastised public employees. Treating teachers and school administrators like punching bags can have ramifications; one of the main problems that could arise is that the school year doesn't get planned and supported as it should. Well, look at what just began.
Don't let yourself be suckered by accepting the premise of a question they want you to entertain. We ask the questions around here. The Mayor's main conversation with the people is through his decisions. Most of those have been awful.
Now, as the city and county undertake their first school year without the support of their joint tax agreement, what happened? Pay attention! Ask critical questions. Mayor Ron Littlefield could have brought up his fabric signaling system at any time; but, he brought it up as the school year opened. Why?
Find out what just flunked at school.
328K, you need to consider the fact that the joint tax agreement had absolutely nothing to do with the school system.
I am with you about making education a priority. The joint sales tax agreement was strictly for social service agencies and joint functions, such as the Partnership, The Advocacy Center, Chambliss Children's Home, library downtown..... I have read the former Sales Tax Agreement.
The school system is funded form property taxes designated for educaiton. All the same, agree, it's all bad for children.

French Rescue,Gold Coast Threat, No! to SuperboatsBringing them home! Crew of the Ponant .The biggest news of the week was the dramatic rescue of 30 crew, mostly French, from the yacht Ponant which had been hijacked by pirates for a ransom ten days before.
This was obviously good news for the crew and their families, but for cruising sailors, the best news of all is that as a result of the incident increasing attention is now being paid to the problem of piracy in the region, opening the way in the future to more safety for cruising sailors on their way to the Mediterranean to the Red Sea.
Rescues were really in the news this week – there's one slapstick comedy of a story about the rescuers who had to be rescued, it finally taking seven boats to bring all to safety, and another unique tale of a solo sailing married couple who circumnavigate the world separately, only meeting in ports. They were in the news this week because one had to rescue the other in a 10 day drama in the South Pacific – without outside assistance.
If you have ever enjoyed visiting the Gold Coast while sailing, you'll be saddened, if not angered, to know that the only two good anchorages in the Broadwater are to be taken over by a cruise ship terminal (Wave Breaker) and a superyacht marina (Bum's Bay) - that's unless the protests are too great!
In what could result in an impending clash of the Titans, Yachting New South Wales has declared that the Superboat Grand Prix held recently on Sydney Harbour, preventing all other activities for the day, was dangerous - dangerous words, Yachting NSW, but true ones, witness the accompanying fatality.
Do you love your lifejacket? - Some handy tips about keeping it in good order. Yearn for a second steering wheel? You'll like the story about how to have a second steering wheel when you don't have a second steering wheel.
As for sailing opportunities, OceansWatch – that volunteer organisation which brings the skills of sailors and home-based marine scientists together to protect our reefs – is searching for crew to sail the South Pacific; there are some good offerings by Sunsail this year in Australia's Barrier Reef Waters; and if you're wanting to leap out of the crowd and do a circumnavigation but don't know where to start, why not consider joining the next World ARC Rally in 2010 – there's still enough time to plan!

The Big 12 champion Baylor Bears' men's and women's teams are among the 16 teams, along with two other Big 12 teams, that have advanced to the round of 16 in the NCAA Tennis Championships.
What started off last weekend as 10 Big 12 tennis teams competing in the NCAA Championships is down to four conference teams that are still alive as the championship field is cut to 16.
On Sunday, the Baylor and Oklahoma men's teams won their second-round matches and will join the Baylor women and Texas men in the round of 16 to be contested next weekend at the University of Georgia in Athens.
The host Baylor men's team, ranked sixth in the nation with a season record of 25-5, defeated the Tulsa Hurricane on Sunday by a score of 4-1. That came a day after the Bears had beaten Texas A&M-Corpus Christi 4-0 in the opening round.
At the same time Baylor was disposing of Tulsa, the No. 2 overall seed Oklahoma men, who finished second to Baylor in the Big 12 Championship tournament this season, took care of business against Harvard 4-0, giving Sooners head coach John Roddick his 100th career victory. Roddick is the older brother of U.S. tennis professional Andy Roddick.
The Oklahoma State Cowboys' men's team was also in action on Sunday, but came up short in its second-round match with USC, losing 4-1 to the Trojans. Oklahoma State finished it's men's season with an overall record of 22-8, the program's best record since 2005, when the Cowboy men finished 22-7.
The lineup for the four Big 12 teams that are still alive in the 2014 NCAA Tennis Championship looks like this:
Baylor women vs. Virginia Cavaliers
Texas men vs. California Golden Bears
No. 2 Oklahoma men vs. No. 15 Kentucky Wildcats
No. 6 Baylor vs. No. 12 Illinois
The men's teams from Texas Tech, and women's teams from Texas, Oklahoma State, Oklahoma and Texas Tech were eliminated in their opening round matches in the NCAA Championship.

It was exactly 35 years ago this October that Jack and Anne Lazor officially began Butterworks Farm, home of organic yogurt made from the milk of Jersey cows. Butterworks has become such a staple in the dairy cooler, we might forget the pioneering nature of this product, this farm, this family. Ten miles from the Canadian border, and long before local was "cool," Jack and Anne began making yogurt on their stove, with their baby daughter Christine nearby, and selling it first to neighbors, then to retailers and wholesalers across Vermont and New England.

Perhaps cooperatives and harvest time are inextricably linked. After all, close to 30% of farmers' produce is marketed through cooperatives in the United States. Agricultural cooperatives produce, process, and market all kinds of commodities, as well as provide financial services such as credit to their members. Many major brands are actually agricultural cooperatives; big businesses that nevertheless are controlled by their members and re-invest and distribute profits to their members. Some of these familiar brands are Ocean Spray, Sunkist, Welch's, Florida's Natural, Blue Diamond, Land O' Lakes, Cabot Creamery, and Organic Valley.
by Alex GyoriOctober 2014Appreciation for BFC Shareholder LendersThis past August, we invited BFC shareholders who had loaned funds to the Co-op for the Redevelopment Project to an informational meeting, repeated one week later, to present an update about when the Co-op would resume meeting its shareholder loan obligations.
As Food for Thought readers know, interest payments and maturing loan principal repayments were suspended in December of 2012 because revenue had failed to meet projections, negatively
impacting cash reserves. Almost half of the 165 shareholder lenders attended the meetings. Discussion was focused and supportive, good questions were asked and useful suggestions were voiced. Although details dealing with the loans may not be of interest to other shareholders, the presentation did
cover how the Co-op is doing.
By Sabine RhyneAugust, 2014
Many of you know that much of the BFC Education and Outreach work has been situated in the local schools. Like many of the initiatives with which the Co-op is involved, none of them can be achieved without strong community partners who have similar goals in mind. One of the most active is Food Connects, an organization whose mission is to "cultivate healthy food and farm connections in classrooms, cafeterias, and communities in and around Windham County, VT." Sound familiar?

Mixed Tip Pre-Lit Wreath 106 115
outstanding quality The garland was thick and lush with all components securely attached. I was very impressed with the quality of this product and the attention to detail that went into it. December 3, 2013
Full and Festive I'm so excited about my new Christmas garland. I looked at several other places before making this purchase and no other garland compared in weight and diameter. This will make a bold and festive statement this holiday season. November 20, 2013
Beautiful Wreath! This wreath is filled with colors and textures. It is very full and the lights are very bright. I hung it with garland surrounding the door and it looks beautiful! December 2, 2013
Simply Beautiful This is the best wreath ever. It is simply beautiful on my door. December 17, 2013
A wonderful purchase! This Christmas garland purchase is everything I wanted. Chose the Christmas Classic lights on the garland and wreath. It is a thick and lush looking garland and makes a statement at the entrance of my home. November 22, 2013
Great thickness and bright lights I bought this for my front porch. It is really thick, much more than others in my neighborhood. The lights are nice and bright too. December 7, 2013
Beautiful wreath I was really happy with this purchase. I put this wreath on my house and it fits in perfectly. It is very pretty. December 6, 2013
Great decoration idea! I ordered 2 Pre-lit 5 foot swags. They look awesome with my other decorations. It completed my display!! December 3, 2013
Excellent choice for our facility Our north woods location was reflected nicely with this particular garland with colored lights and pine cones with full greenery. Great presentation. November 22, 2013
VERY NICE APPEARS TO BE VERY WELL MADE AND STURDY. LOOKS REALISTIC FROM JUST A FEW FEET AWAY. WE HAVE IT OUT OF THE BOX, FLUFFED UP AND READY TO HANG. JUST WAITING UNTIL AFTER THANKSGIVING. November 15, 2013
designer The wreath was beautiful--best purchase I made. December 3, 2013
The Perfect Garland I am so happy that I purchased the pre-lit classic garland. I had seen it at someone's home last year and decided to purchase it because of the quality and thickness. I can't wait to use it this Christmas. October 18, 2013
classic wreath This is the second wreath that I purchased from Frontgate during the holiday season. I was so pleased with the quality and fullness of it that when it went on sale I took the opportunity to get another one. This was the very first season I've ever purchased anything from Frontgate, I'm always looking for something different and unique and I have found it thanks to you Frontgate. Can't wait until next season I missed so much this last because I found you a little too late. January 13, 2013
garland replaced 3 sections. several lights had burned out. hope these stay lit for many years November 5, 2013
beautiful! We decided to change and put wreaths on our front doors. we have a frontgate wreath on our back door and it is lush and beautiful. we bought 2 classic wreaths. they are spectacular. they are really bright and very full and elegant. i am thrilled! we also have the 2 4' hyde park trees, one on either side of the doors and now 2 3' pathway hyde park trees on one side by the house. our entrance looks so beautiful, thanks to front gate! December 30, 2012
Great quality and value These wreaths match the outdoor Christmas garland we purchased from Frontgate over 5 years ago. They are beautiful and we are certain that they will last just as well as the garland, which continues to look full and beautiful with no fading or burned out lights. We have never seen quality of this caliber anywhere else at any price. January 18, 2013
Classic Garland Attached 2 garlands together and found that one did not light up. Discovered that the fuse had blown and was unable to open it to replace the fuse as it had completely melted. We now have to purchase another garland after only 1 season. Very disappointing given the price but also the work that it will entail to remove and replace it. December 2, 2012
Disappointing Quality Last year purchaed two 9' sections of Classic garland. All was fine. This year, one 3' section of one of the garlands will not light. Impossible to find the bad bulb. On decorations purchased from other vendors, one bulb can burn out and the decoration will keep working. Not these!!! Beware!!! December 9, 2012
Lovey window swags! Appearance is lush and realistic...and on sale, you cannot beat! Even if the lights burn out after one season (problem inherent to all prelighted greenery, even high end purchases) they will still look lovely with just a lighted candle in the window! December 1, 2012
Classic Wreath I have two front doors so I ordered two with the clear lights. They looked awesome. They were both the same size and hung beautifully on the doors. I kept the shipping boxes for storage. Can't wait to hang them next Christmas Season.. January 8, 2013
Quality The quality is superb and it is absolutely beautiful, my home is stunning during the festive season. May 30, 2013
Classic Wreath-WOW I purchased this wreath by only seeing it online. Once I received it, I was so impressed with the quality of the product. It really exceeded my expectations! April 3, 2013
Completely Satisfied I purchased a Christmas door wreath w/lights and when it arrived, it was boxed perfectly, no damage of any kind and works perfectly. Completely satisfied w/my purchase, looks lovely on my front door... December 25, 2012
Classic wreath Nice wreath. I have given several for presents Christmas and Weddings June 7, 2013
NOT TYPICAL FRONTGATE QUALITY Like other reviewers, I took out the garland for year #2 and the lights do not work. Frontgate typically has great quality with their Christmas decorations - unfortunately these garlands only lasted a season. December 2, 2012
Nice Wreath Very full and with lots of branches. Decorations look a little skimpy in person so will add a few more ornamental things to it which will make it beautiful. February 5, 2013
looks great.. but!!! i just got seven 9ft garlands.. try connecting them to each other.. it only work for 10 mins till the fuse burns. looks good but definitely annoying issues with lights November 28, 2012
Delighted Rich, lush and beautiful!! Frontgate is always dependable quality and this wreath and its matching garland is no exception. Feel confident in ordering this product. December 4, 2012
better presentation of decor than battery powered More appropriate for my needs and decorative expectations than the battery powered one that I had purchased and since returned. January 14, 2013
Classic Wreath The wreath was very full and good quality in appearance. Some of the decorations had begun to fall off during shipping. January 11, 2013

From How-to Geek:"As usual, theres yet another security hole in the Java Runtime Environment, and if you dont disable your Java plugin, youre at risk for being infected with malware. Heres how to do it.Security holes are nothing new, but in this case, the security hole is really bad, and theres no telling when Oracle will get around to fixing the problem. Plus, how often do you really need Java while browsing the web? Why keep it around?Should You Disable Java or Uninstall it?Ideally, both. Otherwise: If you dont rely on any applications that use Java, and you dont visit any sites that require Java in the browser, you should just completely remove the entire framework from your computer. If you use applications that require Java, you should disable the plugin in the browser. If you are forced to use Java in the browser for a specific site, you should disable Java in your main browser, and then use an alternate browser just for that one single site.For regular users, theres very little reason to keep Java around.Note: many readers pointed out that the fun and extremely geeky game Minecraft requires Java. Obviously if youre a geek, you deserve some Minecraft�but you should still disable the Java plugin in the browser.How to Uninstall Java EntirelyJust like anything else, you need to head to Control Panel �> Uninstall Programs and uninstall it from there. Find anything else that has Java, JRE, JDK, or anything similar, and click the Uninstall button�it is completely free, so you can easily reinstall it if you really have to."Agree? Disagree?--Help stamp out hate; and haters.
Note that currently, Java blockage looks to be broken in NoScript, in Aurora/Beta, so do not count on that.You can enable (the Mozilla preference) plugins.click_to_play in about:config.

Interesting...yeah, I hadn't checked that site since early this morning when I posted that and it said "yes", and mine says "no" now as well.

LOL! --I had a life once.....now I have a Computer and a Modem.

vpn connection over internet problem
I work in the following simple device configuration
and tried to get a vpn connection over the internet :
desktop pc ___ router ___ internet/WAN ___ router ___ desktop pc
vpn client ------------------------------------------- vpn server
If the client is "windows xp home" and the server is "windows xp professional"
the tunnel and the release of files/folders works perfectly.
If the client is "windows vista home" or "windows 7 home" or even "windows ce 6"
and the server is "windows 7 home" the vpn tunnel gets established but if I enter
\\x.x.x.x ( vpn server ip-address from the details tab of the connection status )
on the client the files or folders released dont appear - only an error message.
If I enter \\x.x.x.x on the server machine the released folders show up correctly.
Is perhaps "windows 7 ultimate" a prerequisite for a vpn server ?
The port 1723 is forwarded. I have a non-DHCP ip-address on the LAN connection
of the server.
|My System Specs
|02 May 2012
Surprise, surprise !
here I want to report at least that with Android 2.3 and 2 free little apps the connection and file sharing with Windows 7 works out of the box :
( a little bit water into the wine : the ease of operation of the two apps should be worked upon in the future )
5 VPN : establishes the VPN tunnel to the remote Windows 7 system over port 1723
AndSMB : connects to the remote VPN Server and indeed shows the shared folders and files ( simply a kind of "net share" list ? ) and lets you download them.
Perhaps this is an alternative way to exchange private/confidential data with partners worldwide... without molesting/benefitting the Kim Dotcoms of the world.
Hope this helps.

Egypt's government has resigned
Egypt's interim prime minister announced Monday the resignation of his Cabinet, a surprise move that could be designed in part to pave the way for the nation's military chief to leave his defence minister's post to run for president.
Hazem el-Beblawi's military-backed government was sworn in on July 16, less than two weeks after Field Marshal Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi, the defence minister, ousted Islamist President Mohammed Morsi after a year in office. Its ministers will remain in their posts in a caretaker capacity until the president picks a prime minister to form a new Cabinet.
The government's resignation, announced by el-Beblawi in a live TV broadcast, came amid a host of strikes, including one by public transport workers and garbage collectors. An acute shortage of cooking gas has also been making front page news the past few days.
Egypt's political system gives most powers to the president. The prime minister usually handles day-to-day economic management, but does not set key policies. Under deposed President Hosni Mubarak, who had ruled Egypt for nearly 30 years until his 2011 ouster, the prime minister was perceived as a scapegoat for government failings.
It was not immediately clear whether el-Beblawi will stay at the helm of a new government or will step aside for a new prime minister. Local media has repeatedly reported that he planned to reshuffle his government, but not resign.
He said the Cabinet's decision to resign was made during Monday's weekly government meeting, but he gave no details.
El-Beblawi has often been derided in the media for his perceived indecisiveness and inability to introduce effective remedies for the country's economic woes. He has also been criticized for the security forces' inability to prevent high-profile terror attacks blamed on militants sympathetic with Morsi and his Muslim Brotherhood.

THE GOOD FATHER (3) by Kara Lennox: Single mother Jane Selwyn pressures businessman Max Remington to give her a job with his fledgling advertising company. The confirmed bachelor generally keeps his distance from single moms, but there's something about Jane and her charming daughter that draws him in. Jane proves to be the perfect asset -- for the company and for Max too. Lennox's story struggles under the weight of underdeveloped characters, and it's obvious this comes in at the tail end of a series. As a result, it's more difficult to follow

Caucus backs delegate for judge
Valley officials endorse Athey as replacement for retiring Prosser
By Joe Beck -- firstname.lastname@example.com
FRONT ROYAL -- Del. Clifford L. "Clay" Athey Jr. took an important step toward becoming a judge in the 26th Judicial Circuit on Wednesday when a group of Shenandoah Valley legislators endorsed him to fill a vacancy on the bench.
The announcement came in the form of a news release from the Shenandoah Valley Caucus, which includes eight delegates and three senators from districts covering parts of the 26th Judicial Circuit. The circuit covers the cities of Winchester and Harrisonburg, as well as the counties of Shenandoah, Warren, Frederick, Clarke, Page and Rockingham.
The chairman of the caucus, Del. R. Steven Landes, R-Weyers Cave, praised Athey's "intellect, demeanor and vast legal experience and legislative experience" in issuing the announcement.
"At the end of the day, and simply put, the Shenandoah Valley Caucus trusts Clay Athey," Landes said.
In a news release of his own, Athey, who is retiring from the General Assembly in January, said he was grateful for the unanimous support he received from the caucus.
"I am humbled and very appreciative of the support of my former colleagues in the General Assembly," Athey said. "I intend to work very hard to deserve the trust they have placed in me."
The vacancy was created by the retirement of John R. Prosser in March.
Athey, 51, has represented all of Warren and parts of Fauquier and Frederick counties in the General Assembly for 10 years. During that time, he has served as vice chairman of the Courts of Justice Committee and chairman of its civil law subcommittee. He also was mayor of Front Royal before his election to the House of Delegates in 2002.
Athey "has a good grasp of the law and would be a good person of judicial temperament," said Douglas Napier, Front Royal's town attorney. Napier practiced law with Athey at Pond, Athey, Athey & Pond.
Napier said Athey's appointment would help relieve a backlog of cases that has plagued the 26th Judicial Circuit.
"The judges are, from my perspective as a practicing attorney, they are very heavily overworked and could certainly use some relief," Napier said. "Just out of fairness to the judges in this circuit, they need additional judges."
The General Assembly will make the final determination by majority vote on filling the judicial vacancy.
Napier described Athey's support from legislators in the Shenandoah Valley as "more of an endorsement than an appointment, but it's an important endorsement."

This caucus is a farce. The self-appointed members formerly rubbed elbows with Athey in Richmond. Athey for judge is an abomination of everything that stands for democracy. Redistricting erased Athey's district so he wants a consolation prize for not seeking election by running against Todd Gilbert, another Republican incumbent? So Gilbert becomes a law partner with Athey's firm. Here is yet anther example of Good Old Boys scratching each other's backs.
Who, pray tell, is this Shenandoah Caucus? Never heard of them before this NVD article. Could this so-called 'caucus' be the political creation of one soon-to-be-retired politician trying to influence public opinion?
The icing on the cake comes from a lawyer effusing accolades who also worked for Athey's law firm before becoming town attorney.
This cancer is growing.
Magically appearing out of thin air, who are these guys, the Shenandoah Valley Good Old Boys Back Slapping Caucus? Why are they endorsing backbench part-time legislator Clay Athey? Cronyism? It sure didn't take long for Athey's former employee, now Town Attorney (see how these cronyism dots connect?) to jump on the endorsement bandwagon.
Athey is a mediocre ho-hum legislator with a career noteworthy for voting for the Abusive Driver Fees Bill. The NV Daily reported Athey claimed he didn't actually read this Bill before voting to approve.
Athey helped create the 522 Corridor Agreement, then, changing hats, became the lawyer representing major shopping center developers in the same corridor. Where was Athey when the restaurants sued and won? Beware of career politicians using their government positions to enhance their personal wealth.
Athey is a well-connected lawyer with a long history of representing developers. Athey helped create the pay for play Urban Development Areas, opening up a whole new statewide arena for legal grift at the local level.
And who can forget Athey's crackdown on suspected Internet Cafe gambling, the scourge of what ails the world, except when the State runs a lottery.
By featuring a political career highlighted by occupying space, Clay Athey has accomplished little to nothing that would distinguish his legislative career. Athey is not worthy of nomination to the judicial bench, unless, of course, you are a die-hard Good Old Boy (or Girl).
I am going to sound in on this. For the Record I was once a long time supporter of Delegate Clay Athey. I will probably be nailed to the wall by some of my fellow Republicans on this. I cannot let this go by without asking the question. I wonder how hard Delegate Clay Athey worked to keep Warren County together during the Redistricting of the House of Delegates especially when there was a judgeship out there for him to snag? Did he do anything to keep Warren County together? Or did he sit quietly and not raise his voice in objection to the carving up of Warren County?
Remember everyone. A judgeship is not an elected position. There are not term limits and it is a lifetime appointment. A very nice cushy appointment and the pay is probably not too shabby either. We have a duty as citizens of this commonwealth to hold our elected and appointed officials to a higher level of accountability. After all it is we the tax payers that pay their salaries.
Public Service should be about service. It should not be about a ladder to climb such as this. Today I am a town councilman, now I should get to be Mayor, then a member of the House of Delegates. And if I am a good little Delegate and sit quietly by and not raise any objections to the carving up of my District then I get a life appointment to a judgeship with nice cushy paycheck courtesy of the tax payers.
I find it troubling as well that all of the "backers are either Republican Colleagues in the State House and a Law Partner from his law Offices here in Front Royal and who also happens to be the current Town Attorney of Front Royal. You want to impress us Mr. Delegate! Get some Democrats on the other side of the aisle to endorse you for this judgeship. Then we will get excited about this.

Artists create amazing "reverse graffiti" car art using pollution and a power washer
by Jeff Glucker (RSS feed) on Sep 19th, 2011 at 8:00PM
Marc Cameron and Paul "Moose" Curtis, are an artistic twosome that are exceedingly skilled at turning dirt, grime and muck into art. In fact, the pair have teamed up to create our favorite kind of art – the sort that features automobiles as the subject. Starting with a spot on a dirt-covered wall in Munich, Moose and Cameron remove the buildup of gunk in various layers leaving behind their desired image. It's called "reverse graffiti" or "grime writing," and rather than covering a wall in paint, Cameron and Moose actually clean a portion of the area they're working on. Some stencils,... Read More
