Irondequoit to view library plans, second time
Irondequoit, N.Y. - People living in Irondequoit will have the chance to look at plans for a new, consolidated library on Tuesday.
The public meeting comes a little less than a month before a re-vote on the proposal.
Voters originally approved the project in April, but the legality of the vote was challenged in a lawsuit which forced the re-vote in December.
The open meeting is at 10 a.m., at the Irondequoit Town Hall on Titus Avenue.

Here is What State Law Says (3 Replies)
Cities and towns cannot take actions that are not authorized by state law. Herewith, two definitions from Section 4J of Chapter 40:
"Governmental unit", a city, town, county, regional transit authority established under chapter 161B, water or sewer commission or district established under chapter 40N or by special law, fire district, regional health district established under chapter 111, a regional school district or a law enforcement council.
"Law enforcement council", a nonprofit corporation comprised of municipal police chiefs and other law enforcement agencies established to provide: (i) mutual aid to its members pursuant to mutual aid agreements; (ii) mutual aid or requisitions for aid to non-members consistent with section 8G of this chapter or section 99 of chapter 41; and (iii) enhanced public safety by otherwise sharing resources and personnel.
It seems clear that LECs are authorized by state law, and are governmental bodies. They are subject to the open meeting law and the public records law. As to the former, file a complaint with the open meeting unit of the AG. For the latter, complain to the Secretary of the Commonwealth.
The audio fails after 21 seconds, before Dr. Berwick starts to speak.
My main point is that some of Guardia's supporters depict him as the sole progressive, the candidate of labor, etc. As you state, labor is divided.
I took a look at the web site for the Boston Public Schools. I found these statements:
Regarding the current budget:
The proposed Fiscal Year 2014 (FY14) general fund budget totals $934,360,000, representing a 6.9% increase from the FY13 appropriation of $873,693,227.
Regarding the upcoming budget:
The proposed FY15 budget totals $973.3 million and reflects our commitments to allocate financial resources equitably to schools to meet the needs of students. The proposed budget expands educational opportunities and continues to improve school quality across the city. The figure is approximately $36 million higher than FY14, thanks to Mayor Martin J. Walsh's decision to increase the city appropriation to schools by nearly four percent when other city departments are facing reductions.
Massive cuts?
Some Folks Didn't Get the Memo (1 Reply)
I received a flyer from SEIU 1199 endorsing Jason Lewis. So I went to his web site, and saw that he is endorsed by SEIU, several locals of the Laborer's union, the Mass Teachers Association and the United Food and Commercial Workers.
Nixon had a single payer proposal? (1 Reply)
I don't recall that.
I admire your goals. I think your focus is wrong.
If you want to advance the triple aim, you should start with the Department of Public Health and the related healthcare regulatory agencies. DPH has been a mess for years, as shown by the crime lab fiasco and the compounding pharmacy disaster. Under new leadership, DPH is now well positioned to boldly march forward into the 1990s. The Division of Health Care Quality is obsessed with paperwork and administrivia. The Determination of Need program rewards high volume providers with permits to build new facilities, while innovation in care processes and increases in efficiency are ignored.
Single payer has its virtues, but it is not a magic bullet. You would still need to figure out the best way to pay physicians, hospitals, and other providers, how to set budgets and the like. From a political point of view, I question whether the legislature will have the appetite to tackle another big healthcare bill only two years after Chapter 224. Improvements and adjustments are much more likely to pass and there are many opportunities for incremental improvement in our system that do not involve flipping over the table.
Vermont has not enacted single payer. Vermont has approved the creation of a plan to create a single payer system. Crucially, the law did not include a funding mechanism to pay for it, and this is still up for debate in Vermont. One of the architects of the plan proposed to fund it with an 11% payroll tax, but that has not yet been enacted. Also, the Vermont plan requires a Medicare and ACA waiver, neither of which have been applied for.
Legally and Otherwise (1 Reply)
From a legal point of view, there is no question that once the reports exist the reports are public records, and cannot be withheld. If the reports named individuals, then it is likely that they would not be public records.
I have trouble with the argument that if the methodology is imperfect that the reports should be kept secret. The better remedy is a full explanation of the methodology and its limitations so that the limits of the evaluations can be understood. This also would create pressure to come up with better methods of evaluation. The problem of imperfect measurement comes up in all fields, not just education.
Was the original post edited since it first went up? I seem to remember it being worded a bit differently this morning.
What can the Attorney General do about the soaring cost of college tuition? Is this really going to be his signature issue?
Its hard for me to imagine . . . (0 Replies)
. . . a bigger insult to the memory of George V. Higgins.
The President should follow the law, not act like a terrorist. Assuming it continues, the shutdown will impact more and more people over time. Federal courts are closed, no SBA loans, DOL offices closed, etc. etc. etc.
Do I understand you correctly? Community hospitals should go bankrupt? Nursing homes should stop buying food for their residents? The President should announce that he has voluntarily decided that Social Security checks should not be mailed?
The City doesn't have to pay up if it will be bad for other aspects of City government. The City Council can send the Mayor and the union back to the bargaining table.
In can't be appealed, but its not binding on the appropriating authority of the city or town. The negotiating body, the executive, cannot argue against it, but the appropriating authority can reject it and send both sides back to the bargaining table.
I'm not a fan of this, for several reasons.
First, the duty of the investment managers of the pension fund is to maintain and grow the assets of the fund in order to pay its debts–pension benefits. While I believe that it might be possible to maintain the return by avoiding investments in energy companies, I think it is exceptionally unwise to inject politics into investment management. The next "logical" step is to require pension managers to invest in money losing alternative energy companies. No thanks.
Second, I think this tactic will have no impact on global warming. Is it your theory that the consumption of oil, coal, and natural gas is driven by the stock market? Do you really think that this action will make it materially more difficult for oil companies to refine and sell oil? Do you have evidence to back this up? South Africa is a flawed analogy.
If the demand for carbon fuel could be reduced, then then emissions of CO2 will decline. This "strategy" is irrelevant. If you want to make a symbolic objection to the consumption of fossil fuel, picket a local gas station. Just be careful you don't get run over.
I agree he's no Ted Kennedy. That was not my point (and I am not a Grossman supporter in any event).
You are supposed to start the line with: "I new Ted Kennedy . . ." But then, I'm no Dan Quayle, either.
Just like Ted Kennedy. He was rich, so he didn't care if ordinary people did not have access to healthcare. Excellent point.
You can buy a Commonwealth Choice policy without going through the Connector.
The Connector does not negotiate Commonwealth Choice premiums. It does negotiate and rebid Commonwealth Care premiums.

Excerpt from Hale's sworn testimony in the Whitewater trial of Jim and
Susan McDougal and Governor Jim Guy Tucker pertaining to President Clinton's
knowledge of or involvement in the Susan McDougal loan. [As a witness for the
defense, President Clinton testified via videotape that he had never spoken to
David Hale or either of the McDougals about the $300,000 loan to Susan. ]
Q. All right. Any other way you could pin down as far as a time frame as to
when this conversation took place?
A. Sometime in January, February, sometime along--no, hold it. It was--yeah,
it was probably early January.
Q. Early January?
A. Early January or February, sometime in that period. It was before the
consummation of the Dean Paul loan.
Q. All right. And did you have an occasion then to travel to Castle Grande?
A. Yes, I did.
Q. Can you tell the jury the circumstances under which you traveled to Castle
A. I received a call from Jim McDougal to meet he and Governor Clinton at the
Castle Grande office after work on--to talk about getting their loan ready and
consummated, and we met at the Castle Grande office, in Jim's office.
Q. Can you stop for a second. Do you remember the time of the day that it
A. It was dark. I don't remember what time of day it was.
Q. Do you remember what the weather was like or anything?
A. Pretty chilly.
Q. Was anyone else present?
A. I did not see anybody. I don't know whether--
Q. Well, when you arrived, did you notice any cars in the parking lot?
A. Jim's Jaguar was there.
Q. Okay. Any other cars?
A. I don't remember. If there was, I don't remember.
Q. All right. What happened then once you arrived?
A. I went in and Jim and the Governor were standing and were basically cussing
Frank White and talking politics and this sort of thing, just general
conversation that you'd have around two politicians anytime when they're
talking politics.
Q. Okay.
A. And we visited a minute, visited about cars a minute, and then Jim said we
ought to get our business done. So we sat down and Jim said, "You know, what
I want to do is, we're going to put this in Susan's advertising company."
Q. Put what?
A. Put the loan.
Q. Okay. Which is a conversation then about a loan?
A. Yes, sir. It was about a loan for Jim and the Governor.
Q. All right. And had there been an amount mentioned?
A. Yes, $150,000. Jim had told me previously that the amount was--they needed
Q. All right. Had there been any statement concerning specific uses or needs
for this $150,000 made to you before this time?
A. No, sir.

Who said it wasn't? There are no cars for it to app-ly to yet, though.
At what point does the car get added to the app? I have received my VIN but it still show that there's no car attached to my account.
Awesome. But we cant download it here in Europa (Norway) yet.
Hope they fix it, my Model S is coming in january:-)
I installed the app on my new android phone, but was unable to sign in. So I uninstalled it and installed it again. Now the website says I've installed it, but the icon doesn't appear anywhere on the phone. lame...
Pair from the touchscreen, not the phone.
How much longer until the Android app gets updated to match the latest Apple app???
I picked up my MOdel S yesterday and with the android app it has trouble connecting to the car in multiple locations. It is worst at home but I think that is due to the wifi signal in my carport is very weak and I likely just need to put an extender somewhere closer. I find I usually have to task kill and restart the app for it to find the car otherwise it just keeps trying to connect forever.
Any secret tips or ideas, it is pretty annoying.
Re-pair, starting from the touchscreen?
My Nexus 7 works with the Tesla app perfectly. No problems. I like the warm up feature and the location map is sweet. I would like a Chrome browser also as I use 2 level security.
I ran into an odd bug with the Android app. I had of course checked for the car before it was delivered but found out that Tesla does not enable it until after delivery. 2,3,4,5 days had gone by after delivery, and it still would show "no car associated with this account". What I found out was that it wasn't actually checking again. The app was holding onto the old data and just re-displaying it. I had to clear data from that app in the Android applications settings screen to actually force it to log in and check again, and then it worked fine.
Hey Rocky,
Thanks for a great tip. I picked up the car this morning and the app wasn't showing my car. Just cleared the data from the app and I'm in.
Occasionally when my iPhone is on a wifi network it won't contact the car, but I switch to 3/4G and it hooks right up.
Hey, WPB, glad I was able to help someone out with my experience on that. I went through a lot of frustration to figure that out, and with a brand new car, and with family in town visiting who I wanted to show the cool features to, that was driving me a little crazy that it wasn't working.
Installing advanced task killer and and setting tesla to auto kill every 30 minutes seems to help. It makes it load from the login every time and seems to connect very quickly.

I ran Day 1 of week 2 yesterday in 90 degree weather and I felt amazing!!!! I really did not believe I was going to finish all of the intervals when I began my walk to the trail but I did! I pushed myself and kept reminding myself there was a gorgeous pool to jump in to as soon as I finished and got home!
Then intervals did feel longer but, I suppose that means it's working! I'm not sore today and tomorrow is suppose to be much cooler so, I'm looking forward to that!
I weighed myself over the weekend and I've lost 3 pounds. I have a doctor visit on Thursday so, Thursday will be my weigh in day this week.
I'm feeling great after today's second c25k run! I can't believe there is only one run standing between me and the end of week one ... and a new running outfit! I'm eating more calories than normal but stayin within my range. Before I started running, I don't think I was eating enough so, now, I am making sure I am getting the energy I need. When I'm not running, I do full body strength workouts or pilates on my active rest day.
Feeling great and haven't been more confident before in my life!
Slow and steady wins the race. It seems like every time I fail at a diet it's because I keep trying to change everything at once. I have finally figured it out. Small changes = big results. This month I have focused on finding a comfortable calorie range. I have been logging my meals and exercised for the next day on the night before. This way, I already have an idea of what I can and want to eat as soon as I wake up in the morning and then adjust as needed during the day. It has really been helping me keep myself accountable.
On the exercise front, I began the c25k program this week. This means, I'll be doing running/walking intervals 3 times a week! On my other days, I'll do strength training or pilates.
I do need to buy a new scale but, for now, I'm quite content just going about my daily business and knowing I'm doing well for myself. I have a doctor appointment at the end of the month so, I guess I'll find out my weight then. It feels wonderful to finally have a solid grasp on changing to a healthy lifestyle!
Well, it's officially spring, and, it's officially time for me to get in shape. This month, I have fully committed to getting in to shape so I can begin to worry about getting pregnant. Here are my goals to lose 10 pounds this month:
1. Eat no less than 1200 calories but no more than 1400 calories
2. Drink 8 glasses of water every day.
3. Eat 5 servings of fruit and veggies each day
4. Watch my coffee in take
5. Completely eliminate fast food BY MYSELF from my diet.
6. Even out to 8330 calories consumed each week.
1. Exercise for at least 30 minutes a day - 6 days a week.
2. Burn 2000 calories from exercise every week.
On Monday, April 13 (10 days from today) I will check in and see how I'm doing. Feel free to comment and keep me motivated this month!!!
I don't usually like to brag but I have finally seen the benefits of being serious about this whole thing! When I weighed myself on Sunday morning I discovered that I was down 3.5 pounds from my original weight! I have never before seen that kind of difference in my weight and I feel so pround that I have FINALLY made a difference in my body.
This week, I got off to a rocky start. On Sunday, I ate all of my calories through dinner at my in-laws' house, Monday was a crash dinner outing to a buffet, luckily, I stuck to the soup and salad bar and tried my best to good decisions, then, yesterday, Tuesday, I went out to eat at a diner and got an awesome fatty flatbread sandwich. Fortunately, I stayed within my range yesterday as well.
Today, I'm working on getting back on track and I'm not expecting as much of a loss this week but I am thrilled I started off so well! I hope everyone gets to have this experience at some point!

A Big Thank You!
Date: 25th March 2013
Dear Member,
It gives me immense pleasure to write to you for the last time as Chairman of a vibrant branch of this part of Western Region. Today I am laying down this esteemed office.
As I am penning down my last communication, I am filled with mixed emotions …
It all started three years ago. The members of Kolhapur Branch elected 6 of us and it was the first term as managing committee member of all six of us. Though all six of us had worked for branch in various capacities, none of us had experience as member of managing committee. This was a big challenge for us. But we were not afraid of this responsibility as our sole objective was to work in best interest of members of branch & profession. In our very first meeting I urged my fellow members in committee that we will work cohesively and if our relations do not strengthen over the term of committee, we will take care that they will not worsen. And by God's grace, there was not a single incidence of dispute amongst us.
Besides regular traditional seminars like that of Bank Branch Audit, Tax Audit, VAT Audit etc, and various teleconferences, we organized several novel seminars on topics/ issues which were need of changing times and were essential for updating/enhancing knowledge of members. Most of the programs were well received and appreciated by members. Members from nearby cities were also happy with the quality of programs organized by our branch and congratulated us for our sincere efforts.
Following were highlights of the various initiatives for members
· First ever Advanced Course on Audit of Co-operative Societies was hosted by our branch.
· Intensive Study Course on Service Tax
· Tax Convention, jointly organized with Sangli Branch. More than 300 members participated in this conference.
· Workshop on Audit Features in Tally.ERP
· Five Day Workshop on Advanced Excel
· Two day Workshop on "Enabling Service Tax Practice"
· Workshop on "Financial Reporting Practices"
· Workshop on Capacity Building Measures for Small & Medium Firms
· Common Accounting System for PACS
· Two day Conference at Mahabaleshwar jointly organized with Pune, Pimpri Chinchwad, Nagpur Branches & Satara CPE Chapter of WIRC. First ever conference where so many branches of WIRC came together.
· Dissemination of important information to members through blog, email & sms
· Branch blog where members can get soft copies of seminar material.
· All major courses like ISA, Co-operative Course, were organized by branch.
· Sports activities for members
· Family get together & cultural programs.
Along with these activities for members, we also arranged various programs for our students. Besides regular batches of GMCS Course, IT Training & Orientation Course, we organized several programs, few of them were organized for the first time by our branch. We received over whelming response from students for all the activities. The growing student participation encouraged us to make a request for WICASA branch and I am happy to inform that the request has been accepted and recently we have received the notification to this effect.
Following were highlights of the various initiatives for Students
· Full day seminars
· Lecture meetings
· Quiz Competition & Elocution Contest. This was organized for the first time during our term. In the very first year i.e. in 2011, winner of Branch Elocution Contest went ahead and won the Regional Level Elocution Contest and participated in National Level Elocution Contest. It was a glorious achievement!
· First ever Industrial Visit was organized in February 2013
· Cultural program of Students was the much awaited event of the annual calendar. This too was organized for the first time during our tenure.
· Mock test for CPT students.
· Refresher Courses for IPCC/Final Students.
· Workshop on Advanced Excel
· Career Counseling programs
· Reading room facility.
We also fulfilled our social responsibility by participating in various social activities.
Highlights of our other initiatives
· Blood donation camps
· Organized Investor Awareness Programs for Ministry of Company Affairs.
· Co-ordinated with Shivaji University in organization of seminar on IFRS for teachers.
· Tax Awareness Program for public jointly with Income Tax Department, Kolhapur and Daily Sakal.
· Public programs on Union Budget jointly with Daily Sakal and Daily Pudhari.
These initiatives definitely helped to enhance image of our Institute in public eye as "Partner in Nation Building."
These were the major initiatives/achievements of our branch during our tenure. And to top it, was the fulfillment of dream of every member of Kolhapur Branch, "ICAI Bhawan, Kolhapur". Our branch acquired premises of around 12,500 sq.fts. This achievement was historic and the biggest of all. Whole hearted support of Hon. President CA Jaydeep Shah and Central Council Member CA S B Zaware Sir, along with prayers and good wishes of all members were significant in fulfilling our dream. Besides this, the cohesiveness among the managing committee members of branch was also equally important.
Personally for me, it was an incredible journey. It has been a great learning experience. In between this wonderful journey I lost few friends but gained many more. The mission of acquiring premises for Branch was accomplished. I had not expected such a happy ending. It's better than I ever thought it would be. . .
On a happy note, I take this opportunity to thank you all for your support, guidance & good wishes and wish you all the best in both professional and personal life.
Warm Regards,
CA Anil B Jadhav
Chairman, Kolhapur Branch of WIRC of ICAI

As I try to put my finger on what exactly it is that makes UKIP so repugnant to me, I am drawn to the conclusion that it is because UKIP is a radical party. It is characterised as conservative by its opponents, a sort of refuge for the right of the Tory Party, but I am not sure this analysis is right at all. Nigel Farage may have crafted a political image as a tweed-clad gent, and many of UKIP's supporters are no doubt from the same stable as those who are on the right of the Conservative Party, but there is something much more insidious at the party's heart. Nationalism and conservatism have never been easy bedfellows, even though, in the twentieth century, the two sometimes joined forces. This is why a lot of left-wing and liberal commentary on UKIP misses the mark: UKIP is a nationalist party, and therefore fundamentally radical.
Nationalism, of course, only came into existence at the end of the 18th century. 'Vive la nation!' shouted the French revolutionaries, against 'Vive le roi!' The assertion of the priority of national identity entailed the destruction of an older identity focussed on loyalty to the person of the monarch. Indeed, just by existing, the monarch was an enemy of the nation. We see a pre-echo of this in the execution of Charles I, who died because he embodied a focus of resistance to the idea of an English republic. We see a later manifestation in Hitler's internment of the Bavarian royal family in Dachau. All nationalism rests on the organic fallacy: the reification of 'the people' as a thing in its own right (the same fallacy on which the rebels of 1776 based the Constitution of the United States). It has led to untold suffering, persecution and exploitation, and may perhaps be counted as one of the most harmful ideas of all time. The fundamental basis of monarchism is the repudiation of the organic fallacy, because monarchism existed long before nationalism ever did. 'The people' cannot be the foundation of a constitution, because 'the people' has no real existence. Only an actual human being, to whom the people are bound by bonds of love, loyalty and affection can truly secure the stability of the state.
Insofar as they are committed to Unionism, all of the major political parties in the UK are nationalist. But UKIP is especially so, because of its organic conception of the UK as an entity absolutely sovereign from Europe, and more importantly because it sees the identity of the UK in terms of its 'people'. Immigration from the EU must be stopped, because these people cannot possibly be considered 'British'; they are not British, because they lack the defining characteristics of Britishness; the ability to speak English, perhaps, or a white skin. Yet on another reading, by choosing to come to England, and by choosing to become part of and support English society, immigrants acquire the crucial characteristics of Englishness (a common loyalty and a desire to work for the common good) just by being here.
It is regrettable that in the mid-20th century, fear of Communism often led nationalists and conservatives to join forces. Franco's union of the crypto-Fascist Falange and the traditionalist Carlists to form a single party in Spain is a case in point, as is the alliance of Horthy's Hungary with Nazi Germany in the Second World War. The false polarity of Nazism and Communism eventually discredited conservative regimes that had nothing in common, ideologically, with nationalism. In the same way that the entire Conservative Party was tainted by the leadership of the profoundly un-Conservative Margaret Thatcher, so 20th century traditionalists and conservatives were understandably tainted by their association with radical nationalism as monarchy ceased to be a force with any strength in Europe.
In the 16th and 17th centuries, something like what we call 'the state' first emerged, but almost always it was centred upon the person of a monarch. The idea that the state is somehow coextensive with a population that speaks a particular language or shares a particular ethnic identity is a much newer one, that was sadly encouraged by the League of Nations after the First World War. New also is the idea that the sovereignty of a nation state is unqualified and absolute. The Holy Roman Empire is a case in point, where individual statelets could raise armies, make war, levy taxes and do virtually anything whilst still retaining an overarching loyalty to the Emperor. This was an arrangement that particularly offended the French revolutionaries and Napoleon, with their organic conception of the state, so they swept the Empire away. So called 'Patriots' in America were similarly offended by those who remained loyal to King George in the colonies, inconsistent as this was with their fundamentalist approach to sovereignty. As we enter a future in which the inviolability of national territories seems increasingly irrelevant, given global trade and a borderless world of information, I question whether the old 'nationalist' conception of an unqualified and absolute sovereignty remains tenable, realistic or desirable. That is why I support the European Union and the further integration of its constituent nations – not because I do not believe in sovereignty or the state, but because I am opposed to nationalism in all its forms as inherently antithetical to monarchism.

Does anyone own a cell pal holster and how do you like it?
This is a discussion on Cell pal Holsters within the Defensive Carry Holsters & Carry Options forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; Does anyone own a cell pal holster and how do you like it?...
Does anyone own a cell pal holster and how do you like it?
Overall opinion is that they are crap, I had one and I agree.
Some more threads on the product, re: Cell pal/Pager pal.
Have one, don't like it. Wish I had been a member here before I bought it.
They present it pretty well. However, a few of my problems with it are:
The drop is noe long enough
Due to the way it "hangs" it makes one look as if they are "excited" (if you know what I mean)
Their phone holster looks cheap and out dated and is not practicable, but it will work with some phones without their holster.
I am sure there are better options for not much more money.
Others here will have their opinions and offer good advice. Pay attention to them.
Shop around.
I'm clinging to my guns and religion.
I saw them at a recent gun show. The demo was nice, but I did not want to be restricted to having to have a cell phone on my hip at all times in order to carry. I guess if you have a ton of holsters, and wanted it as just another option....
I was loaned one years ago, and was sure glad I did not buy one. One of the worst ways to carry I ever experienced.
Bought one on here for $10 and sold it a week later on Ebay for $30, junk!!
When Seconds Count, The Cops Are Just Minutes Away!!
Carry On!
I think that they have outlived any usefulness they may have 'sort of' offered. OMO
Stay armed...buy quality leather holsters...stay safe!

Friends don't let friends buy cell pals or pager pals
Unless you are attempting to impress the women (I am a Man). The hidden part is not there. I walked around for 30 minutes trying to get it in the correct position.
It now is used as a carry in my car...go figure. $65.00 down the drain...$60.00 for the holster and $5.00 for shipping with $1.95 printed on the package for postage....
Friend bought one at the NRA convention, salesman put on quite the show. Now he feels like a sucker that just invested in a truck load of CCW badges.
While people are saying "Peace and safety," destruction will come on them suddenly, ... and they will not escape. 1Th 5:3

speeding ticket advice
Just looking for some advice, I recently got ticketed on my way to work, 44 in a 30. Going down a pretty steep hill too.
Is it worth talking to an attorney? Do I have anything worth fighting?
I've only had a couple of speeding tickets before. Last one in early '03.
Re: speeding ticket advice
No, getting an attorney will just waste money if it was obvious you were speeding. Basically I just had a problem where it was clearly in my favor and I still got screwed WITH an attorney.
Just show up there, be repentant and suggest driver improvement class if they lower it to a non-moving violation or so they don't add points.
Re: speeding ticket advice
I did a free consult with a local attorney and he basically said the same thing. Show up and see if they can cut you a deal to lower the charge. Of course he offered to do it for me for $450, I was like nooooo thanks.
Re: speeding ticket advice
A judge laughed at me once when I asked for a ticket to be dropped. Only ticket I've ever had and the only time I've ever been before a judge.
Re: speeding ticket advice
you can get the spedometer checked if you want to try and drop the ticket a couple mph... you can take driver improvement online and that looks good, and its cheap (35$ or so). I'd take the clinic and get a printout of your record from the dmv to show you've been clean. The main thing a lawyer can do for you is talk to the cop, when i got a ticket (100mph) It really helped, for 14 over i dont think you need it though.
If you've been clean hopefully he'll just dismiss it.
Re: speeding ticket advice
Have to agree with the consensus, no lawyer, go to court, and try to plead down to a lesser fine.
Here in MoCo, you can enter a plea of Guilty with explanation. If you can do that, explain that you were going down a steep hill, and were trying to keep your speed at a minimum.
I know in Maryland, that a driving record is cleaned after 2 years. So, if it's the same for NY, point out your clean driving record as well.
You may get lucky and have the cop not show up...just don't bank on it. And, hope the judge is in a good mood. They tend to let people off easier...
Re: speeding ticket advice
I remember showing up in court for a ticket back in '98 or so, I got it reduced to a non-moving violation, but I don't remember exactly how or why.
I figure it's better to show up and see what happens.
Re: speeding ticket advice
It has been my experience and understanding that just showing up and offering a reasonable explanation usually gets you a few brownie points. I had a rolling stop dropped to a lesser charge by just explaining I had looked both ways and it was clear to go. Dropped from a $75 ticket to $25. Going downhill is basically in the same realm so that might work. There are some things you can do that may get you off like postponing your court date so long that the cop doesn't show up but some might have some moral quibbles with things like that. I wouldn't try questioning the cop since they are trained how to testify and you'll just end up looking like an ass most likely. Save that stuff for a lawyer. Then he can look like the ass. They're pretty good at that.
Re: speeding ticket advice
If you are in NY a speeding ticket could be very costly and I'm talking from and insurance point of view. I would recommend calling your insurance agent and find out how a speeding ticket could hurt your rates. From what you have said that would be two tickets in three years and have you had any accidents at fault or not at fault. Some states a ticket or two will not jump your rates but in others it can as much as double them and lets say you have a little fender bender they could realy jump. I'm an insurance agent in Va and I know NY can be a funny state for insurance. Age, driving experence, how long you have been with your current company, all of these factors could play a role in how it may effect your insurance.

I figure it's better to show up and see what happens.[/QUOTE]
ALWAYS show up, try to explain your record is clean and any circumstances, and hope for the best.
If you want you can file for a continuance, delays it a month and gives you a second chance to get a cop no show... cops only show up like once a month for court though, so they rarely miss... unless they move or retire.
and the insurance costs are MUCH higher over the long term than the actual fines.
Re: speeding ticket advice
I doubt an attorney will be able to help you much. Traffic court judges aren't going to be wowed that your hired an attorney and usually, the attorney will just end up costing you more money than it is worth. If you got a DWI I might say otherwise, but I think you're best bet is to simply plead your case to the judge, be respectful, and use your common-sense to concoct a good argument.
Re: speeding ticket advice
Not sure how it works in New York but in Maryland if the Cop doesn't show it is automaticly dismissed. Nine times out of ten the fine hurts you less then the points, which cause you insurence headaches.
Re: speeding ticket advice
Just go in there and defend your driving history, and try to get it down to a non moving violation. You'll still pay a fine, but as long as you keep the pts off, thats what I would worry the most about.
Re: speeding ticket advice
Ask for a list of which officers are properly trained in using the radar equipment. Also ask for the records of when the last time the radar device was calibrated. Both are to be presented to you if you request them. In some areas not all of the cops are "properly" trained or keep up to date with the training on using the radar. And some times you luck out and the radar's calibration may be over due by like a week or two...

thats about as long a shot as hoping for a no show :(
usually if you bring it up, the cop just say yes he's trained and yes is calibrated and that's that.

In chapter one of Patterson and Paetro's lackluster second novel featuring Jack Morgan (after 2010's Private), Morgan, the founder of an L.A. investigative firm "with clients all over the map who demanded and paid well for services not available through public means," returns home to his mansion from an overseas trip to discover the blood-soaked body of his ex-girlfriend, Colleen Molloy, in his bed. Whoever shot Molloy, who tried to kill herself six months earlier at the time of their breakup, has planted evidence incriminating Morgan. Before alerting the police, Morgan has forensic expert Dr. Sci and tech geek Mo-bot comb the scene, but his delay in reporting the crime only makes him more of a suspect to the LAPD. Unrelated subplots, including a serial killer who leaves his victims in different locations of a hotel chain, serve only to add to the book's length. An evil identical twin doesn't help with plausibility. (Jan.)

Historical Traveller Reviews of Woodstock Inn & Resort Hotel
Sad But Not Worth Itfrom JenniferBoston
My sister and I finally got "lucky" enough to score a room at The Woodstock Inn and we were thrilled. Originally we booked one of the lower end ($ wise) rooms but decided to upgrade to a room in the $400 range.
When the staff finally let us check into our room at 4pm, we had to laugh because we realized they had obviously booked us into the wrong room. A call to the front desk proved even more hilarious as we were told that this small, dark room cheaply decorated in early Red Roof Inn was all we would get for over $400.
It featured two small windows with views of the hotel restaurant roof, a tiny not very clean bathroom and beds that were as hard as rock. When we asked for an upgrade, the front desk said that they were sold out. So unfortunately we were stuck in that room for two nights unhappily listening to everything going on in the next room via paper thin walls.
That was the first and absolute last time either of us will stay at the Woodstock Inn. Heed my advice and find other accommodations.

Brunch at the innfrom A TripAdvisor Member
We have been to Brunch several times over the years that we have lived in the area. However the last two times we were quite disappointed. The Food was the same and we were there in Oct and March, They need to get a bigger and better selection Both times the waitperson did not ask about cocktails and really gave us the impression that we were in the way instead of being helpful. I am not sure if she was new But I do miss the old staff that was there and took care of your needs in a very professional manner. Its awonderful spot and We have enjoyed it in the past but now it seems as if the service and food that Brunch was known for has just slipped away.
stop for dinner or lunch, skip the stayfrom ko13
For $350 a night and a stellar reputation, we had high expectations...which were dashed as soon as we checked in. Our room was smaller than we expected, and the bathroom was dirty... the shower hadn't quite been all the way cleaned. The fitted sheet kept sliding around the bed, which made sense after we noticed it was missing a mattress pad -- we felt like we were at the Motel 6! I tried to raise this issue when we checked out, but the young girl at the front desk just kind of nodded her head but didn't seem to listen.
We enjoyed the town of Woodstock -- very quaint and picturesque, and you can't beat the Inn's location for convenience. We skied at the local ski area - Suicide Six (which the Inn owns)- which was uncrowded and easy to navigate (don't expect any price breaks with your stay though). We also loved breakfast at the Inn - the food is fantastic.
However, the next time we're looking for a romantic high-end getaway in VT, we'll try Equinox or the Jackson House Inn in Woodstock instead ...

Great Place to Relaxfrom A TripAdvisor Member
All I have to say is wonderful!!! MY husband and I just returned from a long weekend getaway and we LOVED it!! The food was excellent in all of the resturants. The Sunday brunch is something NOT to be missed!! The staff was very attentive and friendly. The rooms were very clean. It is worth the little bit extra $$.
Wonderful experience!!from elyralyn
I can't say I agree with any of the negative reviews for the Woodstock Inn. I had read all the comments on this site before my trip so I prepared myself for something overpriced and overrated, but I found the complete opposite. We booked the Ski Free package with a superior king room that included free ski rentals and lift tickets. At around $260 a night I think that's a bargain. The concierge was very accomodating and I had no issues at check-in/out. The room was absolutely charming. No dirty walls, lampshades, etc. We had breakfast once in the Eagle Cafe and I thought it was delicious. The inn has a shuttle that takes you to suicide 6 every hour which was really convenient. I would definitely stay here again!
Not very specialfrom A TripAdvisor Member
Nicely situated hotel but don't eat there. Breakfast buffet not bad but lunch and dinner will take most of the evening, the service is so slow and inept. Food not very good either.
Way over rated!!! Too much money for unclean room!from A TripAdvisor Member
I stayed here about a month ago after reading all the great reviews of this inn. I was not impressed at all by this inn based on the amount I paid to stay. This inn is comparable more to a studio type chain motel in the $40-$60 range when one looks at the room condition. There were stains on my bedding. The lampshade had dust/brown marks. The bathroom had some hairs on the sink area (sorry, a big pet peeve of mine). I will say that the reception area is very nice. The staff is somewhat indifferent. I will never stay here again at almost $300.00 a night!
.from lmb13
My husband & I stayed @ 3 different inns over 13 days in Southern & Central VT. We are also big time travellers & have stayed @ many "best" hotels & inns all over the world. After seeing so many 5 star reviews for Woodstock Inn & resort, we thought to stay here. We left scratching our heads in wonder. Impressive on the outside & when you 1st walk in (nice fireplace in the Lobby). Hopes were up but quickly dissapted once we got in the room & got settled (we stayed in a $400/night premium fireplace room). As I sat in the reading chair, relaxing from the drive, I looked around. The room was AWFULLY TIRED, even dirty. There were stains on the chair, actual dust or maybe it was dried food along one side & in the crevices. The reading light didn't work (& the bulb was never replaced even though I left a note for housekeeping every day) & the shade had obvious brown stains all over it. The room was damp & The closets smelled of mothballs AND mildew. There was mold in the upper corners of the room running down the seam of the wallpaper. The mini fridge was empty the whole time (never found a mini bar...I guess our empty fridge was it). Oh yeah...& we overlooked a grade school. Looking around the room, I was suddenly interrupted by screaming children. For $400 a night....it is all just very unacceptable. The fireplace is lovely however & room service was good. HOWEVER, this Inn is seriously just in it for the money. 1st of ALL, the website makes you think that they have a private spa facility (as one would think..on their own premises). NOPE. It's THE TOWN'S PUBLIC leisure center (which is a 1.6 mile drive away & my husband got a $140 dollar speeding ticket going 40 in a 25. Be careful b'c we heard that's a common occurence) which has a setup with the Inn. We thought that whole "Spa" set up was pretty darn cheeky. The next thing was..Breakfast was NOT included. At $400/night (for an "inn" nonetheless) they couldn't treat their guests to a $10-20 breakfast? EVERY place we have stayed in, breakfast has always been included. You even had to pay $1.50 for a paper in the morning! PLUS, they do a "Fall Foliage" Buffet open to the public & have only 1 dining area for it. What does that mean? Well, it means that as a paying guest, if you come down 15 minutes before breakfast ends, you have to wait with everyone else for a table & if you miss the 10:30am cut off (what about sleeping as late as possible on vacation?) you are out of luck & can only get the breakfast buffet not a cooked breakfast. Not even GUESTS get preferential treatment. PLUS the fact that once you get in there, there are tons of tables available but they won't seat you until it is bused & re-set which took longer then it should have. The whole place was run to make the most money. It was a stingy & mean spirited establishment in that respect. We really felt it gave nothing to it's guests out of sheer hospitality or good business sense. The only thing they did was put out cookies, tea, hot cider & coffe every afternoon. AGAIN however, EVERY afternoon, the cider ran out & instead of putting out a few, they would refill ONLY ONE. Which meant a line of at least 10 would form & if you were last, you might be out of luck for a second time. It's just not thoughtful. It was Columbus weekend, so it was a big weekend for them but they should account for that. They've been around long enough. Also a ton of kids & a TON of seniors. It was kind of a stodgy atmosphere but nice enough to pass the mustard if your not paying (maybe on a group tour like a lot of the seniors that were there who I overheard singing it's praises) or if you don't travel that often. Woodstock itself was quaint but heaving w/people. We ate @ Bentley's which had a nice vibe & good food but they were SO busy that we felt rushed. The Billings Mansions was really interesting. It's also really small, you can do it in a day. Overall, if you're looking for a romantic stay..don't stay there. Go to Macartney House in Landgrove instead (see review). If yoy stay there, you will see why WI&R was such a disappointment & why we felt so ripped off. The WI&R just seemed like a generic, greedy business hotel over a gracious, elegant & comforting place to stay. To us, it just didn't represt in person how it portrayed itself to WANT to be & for that, it was not good. Maybe it was the time of year but...the stains were old & the fridge was always empty.
Not worth the moneyfrom A TripAdvisor Member
We travel a great deal, and have stayed at some of the finest hotels in the world. We were very much looking forward to the Woodstock Inn. We were pretty disappointed, especially at $300/night. Had a reservation (for almost a year) for a deluxe king. Paid a deposit for first and last nights. Upon arrival, we were told that no deluxe kings were available. Oops. Sorry, we moved you into a superior room (downgrade). Ultimately, the hotel relented and put us in a "Premium" room for the same price (upgrade). When we keyed open the door, we couldn't believe it. Not very clean - ancient wallpaper - a mildew-smelling tiny bathroom - an ugly couch - a small TV - all in a standard sized room. Made us wonder what the Deluxe Rooms are like - if this was an upgrade. Cleaning was not up to snuff. A bag of trash sat uncollected for 2 days. Also - be warned about add-ons at check out. This hotel is now charging $3/day for housecleaning, and a $6 "porterage" charge. Mind you, no one from this hotel handled my bags during any part of my stay. One doorman actually stood there by the front door and watched me struggle to load my heavy suitcases into the car - while chatting pleasantly with me. This was after I had paid the "porter" fee. Unbelievable. This is NOT a $300/night hotel. I have willingly paid $400, $500, even $1000 per night and enjoyed real luxury. Unfortunately, the bloom is definitely off this rose. Maybe it was nice 25 years ago, but it seems to have slipped. A lot. We should have stayed at the Shire, which looked really nice, and a much better value.
A Nice Place to Stayfrom LocustPointBaltimore
My wife and I just returned from 4 days at the inn. The inn has a lot to offer. Our room was nice , but the bedding needs upgrading. The restaurnat was good and the tavern was very pleasant.
Overall an enjoyable experience but, the place seems to needs a sprucing up.

Top Local Tips for Woodstock
skiing The weekday ski package is an excellent value. For novice or casual skiers skiing and rental are free at Suicide Six, the resort ski hill. On friday afternoon (1:40-4:00) the local schoolchildren ski at the mountain so it is better to plan other activities.
They can only say no If you want a late check out, give it a try. Call in the morning and you may get lucky.
Dining Prince and Pauper is great and walking distance Kedron Inn is nice for relaxing dinner Simon Pearce is great for lunch

Mace Triple Action Pepper Spray- Police 13 13
It appears to be easy to use I purchased this item because I recently moved to Sun City, AZ and found out that there are coyotes in the neighborhood, and since I have a small dog, I wanted to have some kind of protection. December 6, 2014
I like the design I haven't used it yet, so not sure what to say but the design is to my taste. November 19, 2014
I like this This product is what I was looking for .Right size. The reviews I have read gives me the piece of mind that this will do the job. I hope that this will expire before I have to use it, and do the job if I do use it. September 26, 2014
Feel Safer with thisin hand Haven't used it yet, fortunately, but my wife walks in the park and I feel better that she has this to protect her. August 26, 2014
Mace Pepper Spray The pepper spray is for the protection of my 79 year old spouse when she walks. It is dark (less noticeable) and large (more volume and some bit more reach. It the least expensive, least dangerous way to have some minimum level of security July 22, 2014
Gives you a peace of Mind This product really gives the person I purchased it for a peace of mind ......why not, times are changing which makes the streets unpredictable ....I think this product should be a part of most people protection arsenal ! July 19, 2014
Scott in the Lodge Dept. helped me find the mace. After speaking with Scott in the Lodge Dept. at Crocker Park in Westlake, Ohio, he helped me find mace that I would feel confident using. July 2, 2014
Mace to be carried when I/we walk our small dog Hopefully I/we will never use. Product was the right size to carry in case our dog is attacked by dog(s). We have some residents that let their dogs out loose. Wanted to be safe rather then sorry. April 29, 2014
I haven't used it on anyone yet However, I trialed it when I got it and sprayed it into a trashcan in my office. Let me tell you, we had to air out the office because all of our eyes were on fire from the tear gas in the trash across the room. It's easy to use but safe enough to not worry about kids using it if you tell them it's not a toy. Great price fast delivery great necessity to have. April 2, 2014
Haven't had the need to use it. Hopefully it works. Unfortunately, I can't hold on to them I always end up giving mine to some damsel in distress. I know, it misogynistic and dated but I still feel the need to be the knight in shining armor. Pepper spray is the one weapon of opportunity that I would be willing to take up against a handgun in malay range. If they can't see me they cannot shoot me. :) January 15, 2014
