Diablo 1 was awesome, but no running.
Diablo 2 was good, but not as good as everyone remembers it.
Diablo 3 was allright.

Lol, more than 9 people play, but they all sit in the 1st chat channel on their maxed out hc characters and talk about random stuff, then try to boast how they've been in that chat for 10 years and anyone else is a "rando" (random). They get so upset and gang up if you call one of them a "rando".

Just watched some D2 enhanced videos. Forget the graphics... just hearing the music sent a chill down my spine and brought me back... it may not have the same effect on somebody who has never played it before. Hard to say from my perspective.

If you want an older game that still is very playable on the computers of today, try Titan Quest Gold (has the Immortal Throne expansion pack). It basically came out to kind of BE a Diablo 2.5. Great graphics and low price.

Watched it. I see what everyone is saying about graphics... I have been gaming for the better part of 25+ years (wow, I'm old) so I remember enjoying games that had very little to offer graphically so they had to have compelling gameplay and story. The novelty of "hey I'm playing a video game!" wears off quickly.

My son played D3 first, and then D2. He wanted to meet the earlier D2 demon lords.
So I pulled out my old D1 and D2 and loaded them up for him. He played a bit, and he found D2 to be too slow and clunky for his taste. He could not get over the older graphics. He also found the game "too complicated". He had to make too many choices about his character. Kids....
I also tried to play D2 again after taking a 4 year hiatus from the game. I had to agree with him on the graphics stand point. I forgot how stiff and primitive the graphics of D2 are. I also enjoy the eye candy of D3, but would prefer a lot more of the D2 flavor.
Maybe in the D3 expansion or D4 or not...

I think that you would enjoy the gameplay for Diablo 2. I have played Diablo 2 for the past 6 years it was always fun to play a different class. Even though the game is an older one i have always liked the grind for gear or gold. When you got to a new act you were able to buy better gear or even find it. Graphics wise maybe not but then now a days graphics and those graphics are way different.

I play it more than Diablo 3.
D2 lod follow specifically D@D rules book... Read what D@D is about and you will appreciate D1and D2 Lod. IF you want Eye candy games, easy to follow rules set upon by the devoloper and that you can play for about 1 year or so go with D3. They follow many other games like Call of duty , Halo and many Eye candy games than you dont need to ask us anymore about comparing D2 and D3. If you are the type of player that like strategy and lore on your own term than you know you will stick with D2 Lod and not even worry about Eye Candy games. I play D2 offline and online still as of today. D3 i do play only to collect gold and yes i flip on the AH I am also trying to do run only to have that 1 in million chance of getting that perfect roll of a weapons or any other items.But when it comes to building yourself up and using your skill it is very limited in hat you can build.
Oh when you do play D2 take your time and you will see and feel why it is the trend setter. It is gritty for a reason, listen to the rain drop as you venture out, listen to the footstep as you pace on wooden bottom against grass bottom, Venture into a cave or the sanctuary and know that there's no such thing as running straight into a group of enemy and pay with your life. Decide in less than 3 seconds when you all surrounded by hoardes of Diablo minions attacking from all side wheather to retreat or to stand your ground. If you do stand your ground and you have a shield you will hear the clanging when your succesfully block the damage. And when you do attack a single enemy, did you hit the enemy first or did the enemy hit first, if enemy hit first than your attack is stop and so you have just a few seconds to decide what to do. D2 has detail in game play that your senses will be awaken once you sit down and enthraw yourself in its lore.

i prefere the graphics of 3 due to its newer than 2. but 2 has a better story, offline, ability to hack(i hack after i play legit) and most of all my fav class the paladin. I still play 2 more than 3 for those reasons. even with its lower quality graphics.
Posts: 1,865View profile
Obviously LOTS of discussion about the merits of D3 vs D2 and the general consensus seems to be that D3 doesn't compare to it's predecessor...
I liked the music/background sounds of all three games. I agree with other posters to get it just for the music alone or at least look for the music online if you are less picky about paying for higher quality sound.
If we're speaking in generalities and not getting too deep into details, I would say you will not like the graphics as much, but you will like the style of said graphics better (maybe) and you'll definitely like everything else about Diablo 2 more than 3. But then, how many people still play Diablo 2/LoD? I haven't played it since Diablo 3 came out, so I am out of the loop on that part.

If you've never played d2, i suggest you go out and buy it( i prefer the digital copy, digital bought games > cds that can scratch).
D2 beats D3 by so much, its just sad.

Man D2 was great. 13 years ago. One thing you'll miss is the community. Playing with 8 players was awesome. The items, stat points, skill tree all awesome. Even though in D3 being able to change skills is cool. It really gives you no reason to ever go back to the lower difficulties. I played through the entirety of D2 TONS of times because I would try out new builds. Spending hours trying to collect really specific items just so I could make a pvp character. Doing it all again for a champion I could farm with. Sigon set anyone?
Posts: 281View profile
On the single player game I'd grind them out like in D1 and D2. The part I liked was the ability to play where ever I wished without the need to be connected. The AH is great but an option to play off the battlenet was nice.
Posts: 81View profile
I miss charms, waypoints, and skill tree in D3.
The most interesting IMO of D2 were the diversity and usability of gear, everyone were capable to upgrade base properties using the horadric cube.
Another great thing were the runes charms, the scalability of runes and gems was cheap and always have the chance to get them all, farming or using the cube.
The combintaion of low value and high value rune in "runewords" also were great
The posibility to stack aura effects in characters were nice also. LAN and offline play are really nice features missing in D3, I really doubt this will be available in future releases, internet changed everything
The followers actually were "useful", those could be geared with ethereal items, and were available in online multiplayer games.

D2 was a good game for it's time, now everything in there stinks compared to D3.

Bob Murphy: MRP-JBG partnership should make Shaw project stronger
- Daniel J. Sernovitz
- Staff Reporter- Washington Business Journal
- Email | Twitter
It wasn't the first time they've done it (and it probably won't be the last), but MRP Realty's decision to team up with The JBG Cos. to redevelop a site in Shaw was the best option given the circumstances.
So says MRP Managing Principal Bob Murphy, who told me his company could have flown solo on 965 Florida Ave. NW but decided not to for several reasons, including controversy surrounding his firm's selection over a competing offer by JBG.
The partnership comes for a number of reasons. For one, JBG is one of the most active developers in the region and has the ability to pull off complicated projects. Another is that JBG has raised billions in equity and will be able to use that to finance the redevelopment of 965 Florida. Also, the deal will give MRP more space to work with since the site can now be pooled with several neighboring properties JBG controls.
"We're excited, I think it's a good thing for all parties," Murphy said. "There's a high level of mutual respect."
JBG and MRP have shown in the past that they can work together. They've partnered at Potomac Yard, even though JBG could have foreclosed on the property and developed it on its own.
"We think very highly of the MRP team and we thought this could be a great way not only to have the benefit of everything that they know and understand about this project, and where all the bodies are buried ... but also it could be a great avenue toward more future business with them," JBG Managing Partner Matt Kelly told me about the Potomac Yard project in my October profile on the company.
The two companies have signed a signed a letter of intent to partner at the Florida Ave. plot after the D.C. Deputy Mayor for Planning and Economic Development picked MRP's proposal over JBG's last summer. JBG reached out to MRP about a collaboration shortly after D.C. made its decision.

it's one of the better air fresheners that i've used at this price,if they can make it a bit stronger then they would definitely have the best freshener in the market (it also works very well as a home deodorizer and a good freshener for clothes)
Good but could be stronger

I like this, but it's not very strong as opposed to the other lavender spray I was using before. But it's natural and non-toxic, so I can't complain too much. I spray this in my toddler son's room at bedtime and it's very soothing for him.

But your iniquities have separated you from your God, your sins have hidden His face from you, so that He will not hear. (Isaiah 59:2 NIV)
Why do we need Christmas? Have you ever thought about that question? Probably not! If the truth be known, you, like me, are just so busy "doing" Christmas, and enjoying it too, that you haven't stopped to consider the reason for the celebration.
Now, I am not talking about the "reason for the season." You have no doubt seen and heard that. People have been wearing pins with that on it for two weeks and you know that it is to celebrate the birth of a Savior, but why did He need to be born?
Here's why (and, please, don't miss this point this Christmas season): We need Christmas because without it we are going to Hell! Now you're thinking, "What does Hell have to do with Christmas?".
Without Christmas, without the baby in a manger, the virgin birth, the shepherds in the field at night, the presents wrapped, the bills to be paid, the parties to attend, the expanded waistline…. Okay… you get the idea… without all the neat things that make Christmas what Christmas is, we would be eternally lost. See, all of us are lost, without hope, because we all have sin in our life. We are born into sin and can do nothing to rid ourselves of the sin habit.
God is Holy, as you know, and so He cannot tolerate any sin. None! He will not hear us through our sin, and so, if we remain in our sin, we remain forever separated from God.
But then there is Christmas, Praise God! Jesus did come on that dark night some 2000 years ago! He came so that through Him we can be saved, completely forgiven of our sins, and enter the presence of a Holy God!
There is a Christmas! We need Christmas! Thank God for Christmas today!

Classic Tele features will make this guitar familiar to electric players looking for a versatile...
An acoustic guitar that folds in half and fits in carry-on luggage compartments.
The perfect travel companion, bundled with everything you need for your next road trip.
Martin's legendary tone at an extraordinary price.
Strong, beautiful tone at an affordable price.
Few instruments in history have had the musical and social impact as the classic 6 string acoustic guitar. With over 4,000 years of recorded history, the acoustic guitar is one of our oldest and most treasured instruments, and now it is time to carve out your piece of musical history with a guitar of your own. When buying a 6 string acoustic guitar, there are a number of factors one should take into account. Most notably, acoustic guitars come in a variety of sizes. From smaller guitars all the way up to the legendary Dreadnought, it's important to find the size that best suits your needs. Also, the shape of the body changes from guitar to guitar with a cut-away design offering you easier access to the upper frets, which is certainly something a lot of players will appreciate. Equally as important to the body is the neck of your guitar. You will want to have a neck that you are comfortable holding in your hand. As a general rule, you can expect the size of your guitar's neck to directly correlate to the size of the body… the smaller the guitar, the smaller the neck. Acoustic necks are usually listed as 12-fret or 14-fret, referring to the total number of frets that clear your guitar's body.As well, different types of wood will produce different types of tone for your guitar. A wide variety of options exist, each of which give you a distinct sound and tone. As you would expect, the quality of a guitar increases with the rarity of the wood used, so you will have plenty of options available to suit your sonic needs. The modern troubadour is alive and well in the music of artists like Jake Bugg and Frank Turner. The 6 string acoustic guitar has always played a crucial role as part of our popular culture, and now is your opportunity to continue the enduring legacy of this musical instrument.

Description CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS The present application claims priority to European Patent Application No. 09425230.1 filed on Jun. 12, 2009 which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. FIELD The present disclosure relates to machines for canning tuna and the like, and in particular to a feeder suitable to feed such a machine with a regular flow of product, as well as to relevant related operating cycle. In the following, specific reference will be made to the canning of tuna yet it is clear that what is being said is also applicable to the canning of other food products having similar characteristics, such as other types of fish, meat, etc. BACKGROUND It is known that the main difficulties in canning tuna are obtaining cans of constant weight, so as to avoid production waste, and presenting the consumer with a good-looking product when the can is opened, since this determines the product value to a great extent. Such difficulties are not easy to overcome due to the intrinsic nature of tuna, which is a food product showing ample variations in compactness, density and shape from batch to batch where not even from loin to loin. Moreover it is obvious that the manufacturer tries to obtain the maximum quantity of finished product from the raw material, which must therefore be treated so as to avoid as much as possible crumbling and loss of liquids that lead to a decrease in weight of the raw material to be canned. Clearly, all of the above must be achieved through a machine that guarantees an adequate productivity, since machines and methods that are too slow result in excessive costs. A particularly critical phase is the placing of the tuna on the conveyor belt of the canning machine, which feeds the tuna towards the dosing chambers, because the tuna loins to be loaded on the belt are usually too small or too large and therefore require an intervention by the operator who must manually adapt them to the required size. A first drawback of this feeding method is the damage to the tuna loin that inevitably results from such a manual intervention since the operator must act quickly and in a rough manner, with inescapable wastes of tuna that reduce the yield of the raw material and an inconstant density of the fed product that affects the precision in determining the weight of the tuna cake in the dosing chamber. Another drawback of the operator's manual intervention is the fact that the experience of the operator in handling the tuna loins significantly affects the quality of the finished product, since the smaller the damage the tuna undergoes in the loading step the greater its value when canned. Finally, it should be noted that this feeding method requires the presence of at least two when not even three operators to guarantee a continuous feed to the canning machine and to prevent possible irregularities or voids in the feed, that would easily occur in case of use of a single operator who cannot constantly operate in an optimal way. In the light of the above, it is therefore clear that this initial phase of the tuna canning process is particularly critical because it requires a lot of labor and is thus expensive, slows down the process and may negatively affect the yield and quality of the product. The canning machine disclosed in US 2003/0097819 A1 includes a feeder with a single conveyor belt and a knife to cut away from a tuna loin a portion of loin that is subsequently pushed by a piston which compresses it in a pair of forming chambers. The tuna loin is still loaded manually on said conveyor belt and does not undergo any pre-shaping prior to being compressed in the forming chambers. SUMMARY Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed at providing a feeder for a canning machine which overcomes the above-mentioned drawbacks. According to an aspect of the present disclosure, a feeder as defined in claim 1 can be provided, which is capable of preparing tuna "pats" of suitable shape and size, with substantially constant characteristics and to feed them to the machine in a continuous way. Further features of the present feeder are recited in the dependent claims, while the relevant operating cycle is defined in claim 14. According to several embodiments of the present disclosure, tuna cakes with premium quality appearance and constant weight can be obtained, thanks to the fact that the tuna is not damaged by rough manual treatments and is fed with substantially constant characteristics. This also allows to reduce the waste in the canning machine, that operates at the best thanks to the feed of a pre-treated raw material. Additionally, according to several embodiments of the present disclosure, a production line with high productivity can be achieved thanks to the simplification and automation of the tuna loading phase. This allows the canning machine to operate at higher rates, substantially not limited by the operator's capacity, and to require less labour to exploit the maximum speed of the machine. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is front perspective view diagrammatically showing the structure of the feeder according to an embodiment of the disclosure; FIGS. 2-6 are views similar to the preceding one that show the operating cycle of said feeder; and FIG. 7 is an enlarged lateral sectional view of the tuna pats cutting region in the position corresponding to FIGS. 3-6. DETAILED DESCRIPTION With reference to FIGS. 1 and 2, there is seen that a feeder according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a feeding device formed by a bottom conveyor belt 1 and a shorter top conveyor belt 2, overlapping the former and aligned therewith at the forward outlet end. The tuna loins T, which the operator has simply removed from their package, are placed on belt 1 by means of a chute 3, arranged at the rear end thereof, to be fed towards the top belt 2 along a path defined by a containment wall 4 whose forward portion has been removed for the sake of clarity. The operating distance between the two belts 1, 2 is adjustable through a suitable device so as to define a required distance corresponding to the final thickness of the tuna pat that is meant to be obtained; to this purpose, reference T' indicates a tuna loin that has been reduced to the desired thickness. Furthermore, the possibility of adjusting the inclination of the top belt 2 is provided, so as to change the angle between the two belts 1, 2 to make easier the introduction of the tuna loins T and their compacting. Optionally, above the bottom belt 1 and at a position to the rear of the top belt 2, a transverse idle roller 2' (shown in broken lines in FIG. 1) can be provided. Such an idle roller 2' would substantially act as a pre-compacting rolling pin, whose distance from belt 1 would be adjustable, and it could even be provided with a reciprocating motion in the longitudinal direction with respect to belt 1 with the aim of facilitating the compacting job requested to the top belt 2. At the forward end of belts 1, 2 a cross-knife 5 perpendicular thereto is arranged, said knife 5 having such a length as to cover the belt width and such a height as to cover the outlet mouth 6 of the feeding device. Knife 5 is driven by a suitable pneumatic cylinder 5a with an oblique motion intended for a better cutting operation of the tuna loin T' projecting through the outlet mouth 6. To this purpose, the members making up mouth 6 also act as a guide for knife 5; moreover, they also have the purpose of scraping from belts 1, 2 the tuna that could stick to the belts during the compacting phase, as better illustrated in the enlarged detail of FIG. 7, in order to maximize the yield of the raw material loaded into the feeder. Since the present feeder is intended to replace the operator in placing the tuna on the conveyor belt B of the canning machine, it is arranged perpendicularly at the rear end portion of belt B, next to the side walls S that act as entrance to the side belts L that cooperate with belt B in feeding to the dosing chambers the tuna pats P formed with the required thickness and width. Opposite the outlet mouth 6 there is arranged a mobile wall 7, having at least the same width, which is mounted on the stem of a pneumatic cylinder 7a and aligned with the relevant side wall S when said stem is completely retracted (FIG. 2), the distance from mouth 6 to wall 7 corresponding to the maximum width of the tuna pat to be formed. The stem of cylinder 7a can be extended up to placing the mobile wall 7 in contact with knife 5 (FIG. 1), whereby when the latter is raised wall 7 prevents the possible fall of the portion of the tuna loin T that could have crumbled during the previous cut. The mobile wall 7 moves perpendicularly to the conveyor belt B yet not in direct contact therewith, since a mobile shovel 8 mounted on rods 8a is arranged between wall 7 and belt B. Said shovel 8 also has a width at least equal to the width of the outlet mouth 6, as well as a length greater than the width of belt B whereby the tuna loin T' passing through mouth 6 is completely received on shovel 8 without contacting the underlying belt B, as better illustrated in the enlarged detail of FIG. 7. Moreover, shovel 8 is mobile not only longitudinally as the mobile wall 7, but also perpendicularly to belts 1, 2, i.e. in the direction of motion of belt B. The simple and effective operation of the feeder according to the present invention and the relevant operating cycle are readily understood from the following description and the subsequent explanation, given with reference also to FIGS. 3 to 6. In the initial position of FIG. 1, the tuna loins T are pushed by the operator along belt 1 until they stop against the already compacted loins T' under belt 2, the latter being in turn blocked by knife 5 that closes the outlet mouth 6, with the mobile wall 7 and shovel 8 positioned in contact with knife 5. As it can be noted from the enlarged detail of FIG. 7, shovel 8 is located just below the outlet mouth 6 so as to achieve a continuous path for the tuna without risks of stumbling. In this position the previously formed tuna pats P are fed by the side belts L and by conveyor belt B of the canning machine according to the advancing frequency of the latter, independently of the feeder. In the subsequent feeding phase, shown in FIG. 2, knife 5 is raised to open the outlet mouth 6 and belts 1, 2 are activated to push the first tuna loin T' through said mouth 6 and on shovel 8; the latter remains still so as to receive all the tuna, including possible crumbles caused by the previous cut, and thus minimize the waste. In this phase the mobile wall 7 moves back under the push of the tuna, since the pneumatic cylinder 7a is in the discharge position, until it reaches the rearmost position of alignment with wall S that defines the tuna pat width. Whereafter, as shown in FIG. 3, in the subsequent cutting phase knife 5 is lowered to cut longitudinally the tuna loin T' projecting through the outlet mouth 6, so as to obtain a tuna pat P' having the required thickness and width while closing mouth 6 (FIG. 7). It should be noted that in the meantime the previous tuna pats P have advanced along belt B according to the request by the canning machine, since shovel 8 isolates from belt B the tuna fed by belts 1 and 2. In the subsequent pursuit phase, shown in FIG. 4, shovel 8 moves perpendicularly, i.e. longitudinally with respect to belt B, sliding under the side wall S until it takes the newly-formed pat P' at a preset distance (which can even be nothing) from the last pat P that is advancing on belt B so as to obtain a continuous tuna feed. The pursuit is calculated starting from the containment wall 4 that defines the leading edge of pat P', and the distance between the pats is defined according to the needs of the canning machine (e.g. the further compression and extension of the pats being fed to the dosing chambers). Whereafter, as shown in FIG. 5, in the subsequent unloading phase rods 8a retract shovel 8, i.e. move it perpendicularly with respect to belt B, so that pat P' abuts laterally on the mobile wall 7 and the side wall S and is unloaded from shovel 8 onto belt B and starts advancing together with the other pats P. Finally, in the return phase, illustrated in FIG. 6, shovel 8 returns to the position under wall 7 and together therewith waits for the tail of pat P' to reach wall S, thus clearing the operating area of the feeder. Whereafter wall 7 and shovel 8 can move forward into abutment against knife 5 thus returning to the starting position of FIG. 1. The passage of the tail of pat P' beyond the rear end of wall S is preferably detected by detecting means (not shown in the figures) that may include different types of sensors such as cameras, photocells and the like. In this way, there is prevented the risk that the advancing of pat P' calculated on the basis of the movement of belt B is less than that needed to clear the operating area, for example due to a slipping of the pat P' on belt B, and the starting position is restored only upon authorization by the detecting means. It is clear that the above-described and illustrated embodiment of the feeder and of the operating cycle according to the above described embodiments is just an example susceptible of various modifications. In particular, the separation of pat P' from loin T' can be achieved by cutting means different from knife 5 although technically equivalent (e.g. rotating blades), possibly entrusting the function of cutting loin T' and the function of closing the outlet mouth 6 to two different members. Similarly, the mechanism for moving pat P' in the pursuit phase could be different from the mobile shovel 8 if the feeder is located beyond the rear end of conveyor belt B rather than at the end portion thereof. In other words, if belt B is shorter and does not extend beyond walls S then the mechanism that must carry pat P' in queue with the previous pat P need not perform the function of isolating it from the underlying belt B as in the above-illustrated embodiment. As a consequence, one could use a simple conveyor belt located before the outlet mouth 6 and arranged in line with conveyor belt B, obviously with a connecting plate between the two belts. However, this implies a higher risk of loss of tuna in the transfer between the two aligned belts during the passage on the connecting plate. It should be noted that this further conveyor belt of the feeder could be used anyway even in combination with the mobile shovel 8. In this case, said conveyor belt would not perform the primary function of moving means for pat P', which function would still be performed by mobile shovel 8, but it would be provided with a continuous motion for the function of keeping pat P' in contact with the previous pat P when the canning machine belt B moves forward the latter. In this way, it is possible to prevent the crumbling of the "tail" of pat P caused by the acceleration of belt B that advances jerkily. Finally, it should be noted that since the present feeder produces tuna pats P of the desired thickness and width whereas their length is unimportant given that they are then aligned sequentially, also the way in which the tuna loins T are loaded on the chute 3 is unimportant (they could even be loaded lengthwise rather than crosswise) whereby the operator's capacity does not affect the feeder operation.

Talk about being thrown under a bus (or in this case, an ice cream truck).
Mike (Softy), when you incessantly called my office for minutes to be posted, I explained that I would post them within 24 hours of receiving such minutes. If I didn't have them, I couldn't post them (which, I'm sure, the current webmaster will agree). The residents were not at my "mercy." An improved system would have been welcomed.
Yes, having the minutes posted online is a good practice and benefits the residents, which is why I did the job for years, on my own time, without additional compensation.
Mike, I certainly did not say I "wasn't obligated" to post the minutes, but I did read to you from the Connecticut State Statutes PA 10-171 – HB 5255 (Sec. 4. Section 1-225) – An Act Concerning Municipal Mandate Relief, which states "no public agency of a political subdivision of the state shall be required to post such minutes on an Internet web site." This was in clarification of your misunderstanding of the FOIA requirement. The city is not "required" to post minutes online.
Planner is correct - a municipality is a political subdivision of the state. This does not exclude minutes from being filed within seven days with the municipality's Town Clerk's office where they are available for public inspection. Minutes are official once approved by the board at its next meeting, there have been cases where revised minutes were posted online to replace an older version, but are noted as such.

I am familiar with this but lost by the thread here. "Yanking of chains" really may be fun for the person bored doing it, but really diminishes this site.
I'm afraid we need to look back at the Della Volpe administration that SIGNED AN AGREEEMNT to replace the Olsen development if allowed to take it down and then tried to violate it.
HUD is simply enforcing an agreement Ansonia made years ago. Why Ansonia made such an agreement and why voters were not more engaged in the discussion at that times escapes me, but the ship has sailed as they say.

I witnessed cars rolling through this stop sign last week four times.
The problem is a car coming down Platt to this stop sign can see clearly that no one is coming up Platt (which is then one-way) and since no one can be coming from Columbia (as it is also one way towards Main) they assume there is no need to obey the sign and keep moving, by making a left turn onto Columbia.
Yes, it's true when you approach that sign if you don't see anyone coming up Platt there is no VEHICULAR reason to stop... but that doesn't mean a pedestrian isn't in the street.
Sadly, there is no where for a police car to hide in this cramped area to enforce the sign. Of course people will stop if they see a cop and then run it again when the cop car is gone. Not a solution.

Left Turn Signal Needed On Stoplight (Olson Dr/Pershing Dr/Crescent St Inters... ► OpenPershing Drive Olson Street, Crescent Street, Ansonia, CT
The intersection/light from the opposing Cresent Street and drivers who want to turn left onto Pershing Drive is a NIGHTMARE in the morning. I welcomed the opportunity to be able to drive over the Maple Street Bridge upon it's recent reopening; and on the first week/drive into work; it was very nice; traffic was lighter (due to holiday's, etc) however; now that most people know the bridge has reopened people are preferring to go over and around onto Olson Dr to Pershing as it's a MUCH quicker route than going over Bridge Street, but not during rush hour nor school pick-up/drop off times. I got stuck at that light along with a LINE of cars this morning trying to get to work (4) FOUR times until I was able to get through the light as bus after bus and car; etc kept turning right onto Pershing and/or straight to Olson Dr. PLEASE install a turn signal to allow traffic to remain flowing and allow both sides to make their turns safely, as I've seen a few people go through the light (when green) but cut-off opposing traffic/school buses as they just don't want to wait.... and honestly right/wrong I don't 100% blame them!

"They don't even know that this site exists." - City Officials DO RECEIVE copies of things posted here. You can see who does on the right side and Public Works is included. Since when does "NO ONE KNOW THE SITE EXISTS"? Ansonia and Derby DO monitor this site. Thanks for the misinformation.
Planner (Registered User)
I think the problem with this post is that there is no way to understand the turns and signals Mr. Palumbo is describing; it doesn't seem possible to "turn right onto Pershing AND/OR straight onto Olsen", or at least I can't envision what he is referring to.
A picture might help.

" it doesn't seem possible to "turn right onto Pershing AND/OR straight onto Olsen"
Thank you Planner! I am sure the OP can clarify but I also said "HUH?" when trying to picture the situation. Photos are always so helpful when posting here if possible.
Old Timer (Guest)
I think I can picture what is happening... vehicles are south bound on Olson Drive where it curves to the west toward Lester St (Route 334). They wish to make a left turn to continue south on Lester St. toward Pershing Drive, or right onto Lester Street. However the traffic that has come down Crescent Street hill a few yards north of the intersection of Olson and Lester has a stop sign and then they pull out to make a left or right turn onto Lester Street. Those that make a right turn onto Lester Street headed southbound toward Pershing Drive are stopped at the light at Olson and Lester. This flow of traffic coming east on Crescent Street and turning south bound onto Lester Street that is not controlled by a signal light causes traffic to back up on Lester Street making it difficult for cars coming from Olson Drive to enter the flow of traffic on Lester Street even when they have the green light.
Looking at this on Google Maps is helpful.

Is there any VALID reason for this traffic signal?! ► Open382 Main St Ansonia, Connecticut
Myself and friends have been driven nuts but this traffic signal on Main Street which appears to exist for no good reason. It's at the driveway exit of Bank of America and turns red every minute or two stopping Main Street traffic.
I could perhaps understand if this light ONLY turned red when someone was trying to exit the bank because making a left hand turn down Main Street there could be dangerous without being given right of way. However, this light has no sensor on it and simply stops Main Street all day and night and 90% of the time no one is waiting to exit the bank.
It is not needed for the small section of road next to Spector Furniture across from the bank because that is a one-way (Tremont?) and you can very easily make a left turn when heading towards Big Y without need for any signal like at so many intersections.
Has anyone looked into this? One would think city employees who have had to stop at this light for no reason or years before the bank is even open would inquire.
Leave the light, but at least install a sensor so it only goes red if someone needs to safely exit the bank parking lot. That would improve traffic flow in this area greatly.· Reported by Pat Mendelson (Guest) · Share · Flag Flagged

My understanding is that the city is responsible for the lights in question (Tremont, Target), but I got squat from the city the one time I asked them. The (former) mayor shuffled his feet, one of the contacts that the state gave me (i think he worked in the police dept) left a message gruffly saying nothing was wrong, and the other contact never even bothered getting back to me. The state has graciously agreed to assist the town in reviewing the lights but they say that they have been having some difficulty getting copies of the traffic control signal plans, so there you go. Stay tuned - I'll have some free time coming up and will work on this more. In the meantime, keep on top of the city, aldermen, etc.

I had a question about a certain traffic situation in Derby, on a state road, a few years ago. I got a response from a state traffic engineer, who told me that the town traffic comission or the police have to make a request before the state even considers doing anything.
Michael Raymond (Registered User)
Thanks Bob!
I trust via these posts Ansonia is working on a request to the state traffic engineer to review all five signals that are of concern in this post, the Bank of America on being the most troubling.
BeenThereDoneThat (Guest)
I wouldn't trust it... I haven't seen any action from the city. Last I heard, the state asked for the paperwork, and the city was having trouble finding it...
Downtown Blight STILL Not Resolved?! ► Open530 Main Street Ansonia, Connecticut
I think I saw something posted about this building many months ago. Yesterday, after a long time since I had been to downtown Ansonia, I passed it and actually had to pull over I couldn't believe my eyes.
I consider this the "old Ansonia diner building", YEARS ago there was a fire and the building sat burned out and boarded up forever. It was a eyesore. Then, I saw someone ask about it here. I was so relieved.
Now, it seems someone THINKS they have improved the structure, but have only made it worse. All the siding (much of which seemed to be hiding fire damage) has been torn off, it looks like the interior has been gutted and the plywood "windows" have been replaced by new real ones.
(That is what the owner poured money into? New windows for a burned out building?!)
Now we have a sign that says "New Space Available". NEW?! Don't they mean "Old Charred Space Available"?! Who would lease space in a clearly burned out building that has no siding and marks from a fire all over it's exterior?
I can't believe City officials don't consider this blight. As you enter Ansonia THIS burned out building is the first thing you spot on the side of the road.
Who is going to lease this space? What business owner would want to be seen here? Can't the city do anything to either get this building torn down or get the owner to complete the repairs if he/she is so certain new tenants can be attracted. What is there now is horrid!· Reported by Michael Raymond · Share · Flag Flagged

To Clarify- my last post was in reference to a deleted threat by the poster-with-a-thousand-aliases to hack my IP and key-log me and offer this hacker access for sale.
In reference to your questions:
2. The City of Ansonia officials who were being notified were from the Della Volpe Administration
3. The Valley Council of Governments made a joint presentation with See-Click-Fix in Sept 2013 to the Valley towns proposing to license the SCF dashboard as a single unit to formally acknowledge and respond to valid issues. VCOG proposed to assign a central person who would operate the dashboard and forward the complaints to the proper town agency, then do the follow-up. The cost would have been about $11,000 per year plus the part-time staffer. The towns expressed interest but had no funding available to license the site from SCF. No action was taken.
Ryan Healey (Registered User)
Thanks Planner!
1. Sounds like the new administration in Ansonia best add themselves to those notified of posts here. We'll need to keep an eye out for that.
2. It's been a long time since September 2013 and this site has become the place for reporting problems in the valley, among other places. I would hope the Valley Council of Governments has it on their agenda to revisit this proposal. You don't need a part time worker to monitor the dashboard. I am certain there is someone in City hall that has time to check and forward e-mails once a day. This site is not used to report buildings on fire.
Planner (Registered User)
I believe they were just re-assigning existing staff to cover this part-time during a pilot period. COG employees must bill each hour they work to an eligible project- their salaries are not appropriated at the beginning of their year- they must actually earn their salaries. (I used to be on the board there when it was the VRPA, before the mayors took it over as a COG)
Not sure they will re-visit unless the towns ask for it.
Michael Raymond (Registered User)
Sadly, I see this burned out building remains untouched. Beyond an eyesore, I can't imagine what serious business owner would want to lease space in this condition. I trust there is a parking lot in the rear?

Yes by all means lets BORROW money to pay the fines and penalties. Next they will propose to CAPITALIZE the fines and penalties.What a crazy group (Lehman).
I agree sounds pathetic to borrow $300 MM. If yjey were to pay $300MM with cash flow I wonder how that would impact our dividends? Does anyone know how much they pay out in dividends annually?

LIVERPOOL, England — Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers says Steven Gerrard can take his time to consider a new contract on offer from the club.
The 34-year-old captain's current deal expires at the end of the season.
An extension offer has been made, but Gerrard is yet to accept it.
The former England captain joined Liverpool's academy when he was eight. Rodgers says the midfielder "deserves the utmost respect and time to consider" the contract offer.
Rodgers added that "it is a big move not just in his life, but in terms of committing where his next contract is going to be."
Gerrard has won the Champions League, FA Cup and League Cup with Liverpool, but has never won the Premier League since making his first team debut in 1998.

Yeah the death scene of that character was so awful, it pulled my head out of the movie for about two seconds but then I was right back into it, Actually my only complaints about the movie so far are with that character, There was another scene that just seemed so random and forced it just kinda happened out of nowhere,
Tyler Starke's comments
Tony daniel's art is freaking awesome, his stories lately haven't been, He seems to like making batman's villains have surrogate daughter sidekicks, first catwoman and now riddler ? wtf is wrong with him stop screwing around and get to some cool stuff, his story is boring the hell out of me.
" It's too bad Cornell/McDaniel are only on this title for one arc. :c "Thank you jesus it's only one arc, this story is absolute shite and so is the artwork, You can't go from morrison's epicness to this worthless piece of garbage.
This is Hilarious
what issue is this from?
I'm really disappointed with Grant Morrisons Batman and Robin #7. First off everyone and their mom knows whats going to happen from page one. Batman's "remains" are going to be thrown in a Lazerus pit and he's going to rise on the very last F%@#*!^ page! I don't like an issue that purposely wastes our time. I've been looking forward to this arc for some time now, so don't make me wade through a lot of useless british dialog about some mysterious underground pit and then act like it was a huge reveal that in fact it's a Lazerus pit!!! Plus it just seems like all the other Bat books have a common theme and feel( the ones in continuity )while Morrison's story remains some place very foreign with plots driven only by one "HUGE" retarded twist after another "HUGE" retarded twist. Anyone have any theory's about issue eight? I'm pretty sure morrison has a giant box full of random ideas and My guess is that the spook is coming back in a big way :)
One week without superheros!?? RIOT! :(
hahah the name fl style reminded me of R.l Stein immediately
why would you wear high heels if you can't walk.
I just hope this artist doesn't make tim look like he's 13 while not in costume.

Mahesh as 'Chandrudu' in a mood to play a grey shaded role?
Prince Mahesh Babu has actually started experimenting with his look and roles from 'Athadu' if you remember. The success of this film has actually given a real boost for this Actor to think more than regular Hero (or for that matter Stereo Type) roles.
Soon after this, even 'Pokiri' turned out to be a block buster and the experiment done by him with this role, really worked positive for this film.
And of course, not to forget his 'Athidi' turning to be a below average success at the box office. It did not take much time for Mahesh to entertain the audience with two back to back block buster successful films 'Dookudu' and 'Businessman'.
Now, the actor has changed his working style to working on the release of more than one film a year, simultaneously. Apart from working in a Srikanth Addala's multi starrer flick, Mahesh has also agreed to work in Sukumar's directorial.
'Prince' would be once again romancing Kajal Aggarwal in this film. The regular shoot of this film would be starting from June and the movie release is planned for 2013 Sankranti…
According to some sources, Sukumar has shaped up Mahesh's role with a lot of grey shade adding to its… if so, this will be a really challenging role for Mahesh, who is as such trying to appear new with his every film…
All these make me say, Mahesh would continue to be the next big name, for a long run in T - Town…
