Propelling the oral history into the past are a few choice comments from such famed influential American musicians as Lou Reed.

Seven injured in Rockview train crash
CHAFFEE, Mo. -- National Transportation Safety Board officials said an investigation into the cause of a cargo train collision that partially collapsed an overpass in the Chaffee-Rockview, Mo., area will take four to seven days. Seven people were injured, though none seriously.
The collision occurred at about 2:30 a.m. Saturday when a Union Pacific train hit a Burlington Northern Santa Fe train at a rail intersection near Route M and County Road 210. Derailed rail cars then hit columns supporting the Highway M overpass, causing it to buckle.
Scott County Sheriff's Department dispatcher Clay Slipis said several train cars derailed and hit a pillar of the Route M overpass, bringing it partially down. Two cars were on the overpass when it fell. The highway was shut down for about 8 miles between Scott City and Chaffee.
Seven people -- five in the vehicles and a UP train conductor and engineer -- were taken to Saint Francis Medical Center in Cape Girardeau. All seven had been treated and released by early Saturday afternoon, hospital spokeswoman Felecia Blanton said.
"You're driving down the road and the next thing you know the bridge is not there. ... It could have been really bad," Scott County Sheriff Rick Walter said.
The crash derailed about two dozen rail cars hauling scrap metal, automobiles and auto parts, tossing them into the overpass' support columns.
The overpass was about 15 years old and in good condition but couldn't withstand the impact of the rail cars, Walter said.
Two 40-foot sections of the overpass buckled; the two cars on the roadway were sent into the edges of the collapsed sections. A diesel fire broke out in one of the locomotives after the collision, but was quickly extinguished, Walter said.
Blanton said when she heard about the crash, she immediately went online and saw video footage of the scene and was bracing for the worst. She said it was "a real blessing" the injuries were relatively minor, the most serious being a fracture.
"If you look at the pictures, they're very dramatic, and there are no serious injuries," she said. "So it's amazing."
Walter said Deputy Justin Wooten was among the first at the scene and pulled the two Union Pacific employees out of the wrecked engine, which became lodged next to the train's second engine. That engine began burning after the crash.
"We're very fortunate he was there," Walter said. He said all seven people injured were already out of the wreckage when he arrived about 15 minutes after the crash was reported.
"People were talking; they were coherent. They understood what was happening," Walter said.
The cars on the overpass "took a really bad hit" when they collided with the bridge sections, but "they stayed on all four tires and they just hit and landed and that was it," he said.
The accident came more than a week after a commuter train derailment in Connecticut that injured 70 people and disrupted service for days. That accident involved a railroad used by tens of thousands of commuters north of New York City.
In Washington state last week, a bridge collapsed when a truck driver's load bumped against the steel framework.
NTSB board member Robert Sumwalt said while the investigations into both collapses are in the early stages "there is no similarity" between the Missouri accident and the bridge collapse in Washington, which sent two vehicles and three people into the chilly water.
He noted that the Missouri bridge was rated "good" after it was last inspected in February.
"This was not because of any lack of integrity of the bridge in Southeast Missouri, but because of a train that derailed and had a bunch of rail cars slamming around, which knocked down a pier, which allowed the bridge to collapse," he said.
"If you just look at the facts, there is no relationship other than some external object caused each of these bridges" to collapse, he said.
BNSF spokesman Andy Williams said the 75-car BNSF train, which was carrying scrap metal, was hit by the Union Pacific train about eight cars back from the locomotive. He said 12 cars on the BNSF train derailed.
"Our crew was not impacted," Williams said.
Union Pacific spokeswoman Calli Hite said the 60-car UP train was carrying primarily automobiles or auto parts from Illinois to Texas. She said about a dozen UP railcars derailed.
Hite said the NTSB will determine what caused the accident, and that there was no immediate estimate on the amount of damage to the roadway or the rail cars.
"We have no indication as to cause of the incident, but that will be handled by the NTSB," Hite said.
At a news briefing Saturday afternoon, Robert Sumwalt of the NTSB said investigators would be collecting "perishable" information that would be analyzed later. He would not speculate on the cause of the collision.
Sumwalt said NTSB investigation will include routine testing of railroad employees for drugs and alcohol, testing the track and nearby rail signals and reviewing video footage from the front of the train in an effort to determine the likely cause. The NTSB also will review the bridge's design.
"Two trains should not be at the same place at the same time," Sumwalt said.
When asked if the incident would be looked at in connection with two other derailments that have occurred in the same area within the last six months, Sumwalt said the NTSB would first investigate factors related to Saturday morning's crash. If systemic issues were revealed, they will be addressed, he said.
An organizational meeting including the Federal Railroad Administration, Missouri Department of Transporation and the NTSB was planned for Saturday evening, Williams said.
Carol Gribler lives directly across from the collision site on Grace Road and was awakened by the crash. She said she immediately thought it was another derailment, but when she saw the wreckage, she thought "Oh, my God, this one's horrible."
"I heard a woman crying, and it sounded like a little child, too." she said. "I'm just glad everybody's OK."
Gribler is used to the sounds of trains, and didn't notice whether a whistle blew.
"It really sounded like a really strong high wind. And then, the crunch of the metal." Gribler said. "I'm just hoping this is the last one."
Scott County Sheriff Department's Captain Kenneth Kinder advised motorists to avoid the Rockview area.
Pertinent address:
Grace Road, Chaffee, Mo.

Neighbors seek to retain historic Robert W. Steele complex
Marie Edgar, Ray Defa, Bob Ridgeway, Ken Wiig, Laurie Simmons
Dear Editor and Readers of the North Denver Tribune,
It's been a year since North Denver's "Neighborhood Spring." Have you noticed that District One residents seem to have awakened from a "density haze" of demolition and urban revitalization? Many resulting changes in our neighborhoods have been welcomed and recognized as progress. Others have not seemed to warrant the losses to our longstanding and valued sense of place. Out of this season of growth has come a willingness of involved citizens to recognize vulnerable properties and to face challenges to their continued enjoyment of home and community.
The Robert W. Steele Gymnasium and its associated Denver Square house stand at West 39th and King St. They could be considered flowers in North Denver's lush garden of historic buildings. There are neighbors, familiar with local history, who feel responsible for remaining involved with the future of these properties. They learned that the current owner, Colorado Uplift, applied to rezone both Steele properties in December 2015 – from a PUD to U-SU-B1. In addition, the owner obtained a Certificate of Non-Historic status in March 2016, allowing the demolition of the Denver Square within 5 years.
Interested folks recently met with the potential owner, David McMurtry, at his request. Outside, on the lawn, he presented his plans for locating a Goddard School in the gymnasium. It was inspiring to realize that this meeting was taking place on the very spot where the founders of the Steele Gymnasium, Walter and Hattie Rudolph, had worked in the soil of their large garden 100 years earlier.
Attendees of this gathering, neighbors and friends of the Steele properties, were excited at the prospect of having another school in the community. Questions were raised about why there was no immediate interest in the Landmarking of both structures to preserve them. The owner indicated he was not interested in landmarking either structure at this time in order to keep his options open.
Other concerns were raised about permitted uses in both structures as well as impacts of traffic and parking. After this community meeting, the rezoning process continued through a Planning Board Public Hearing on March 30th, 2016 and a Neighborhoods and Planning Committee meeting on April 13th, 2016. At both City meetings, letters from neighbors, Historic Denver and BRUN (Berkeley Regis United Neighbors – RNO) were included.
This Goddard School and its headmaster will potentially be integral parts of a stable and very active community. They could join in the work of past gardeners who nourished North Denver's history and character as well as its families. Mr. McMurtry is embarking on a relationship with his future neighbors who want to support his efforts to continue the Steele legacy of offering quality care and education for children. Working together, he and the community can help to create a more stable and healthy future for all parties.
The next steps for everyone involved with the Steele properties will lead to a Public Hearing before City Council tentatively scheduled for June 20. The challenges related to preservation and permitted uses in both structures, as well as the impacts of traffic and parking, will need to be addressed if a WIN – WIN will be the outcome of this rezoning. The question is: Will a healthier and more unified community of North Denver gardeners benefit from this opportunity for collaboration and mutual respect in District One? (To Be Continued!)
A rare opportunity to consider Colorado health care
Arden Buck – Nederland, CO
There's an unusual opportunity coming up. This November, we will get to vote for universal health care for Colorado. If voted in, ColoradoCare (Amendment 69) will, by eliminating insurance company involvement, provide better health care than our present system, and cost less. There will be no deductibles and very low co-pays.
The plan expands the benefits of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and Medicare. The Affordable Care Act improved our health coverage, but premiums are still too high, and costs can be overwhelming for people with chronic diseases. And it still leaves too many uninsured or underinsured. With ColoradoCare, every Coloradan will be 100% covered – no exceptions. No more bankruptcies due to exorbitant medical bills.
Currently, insurance companies provide only a narrow choice of doctors and facilities. Under ColoradoCare, you can go to any provider. You get to choose, not some insurance company.
ColoradoCare will be organized like a credit union, owned by and accountable to the residents of Colorado. Medical costs will be paid through a state tax, adjusted for income. With no insurance premiums to pay, most of us will save money overall. It will simplify health care, relieve doctors of a huge paperwork burden, and be cheaper for employers. It's a big win for all of us.
Too good to be true? How can this possibly work? It works because it eliminates the colossal amounts that insurance companies spend on paperwork, fancy marketing, and huge executive salaries.
ColoradoCare will be furiously opposed by the insurance industry. They will spend enormous amounts trying to defeat it, and will organize an immense barrage of letters, articles, and TV ads opposing it. Keep that in mind as you make up your own.

NW Denver Historic Preservation Forum series, nailed it!!!
Alan C. Iannacito – Littleton, CO
Although I live in Littleton, I attended Edison Elementary, Lake Jr. High, and North High School, class of 1959. The first three paragraphs of your nicely crafted article are succinct and absolutely what I feel whenever I visit North Denver and the West Side. On April 9, I had a successful book signing for my novel, BEING BONARELLI, at the BookBar on Tennyson. The novel reflects North High School, the North Side, the West Side and my personal feeling for those old homes and businesses that still call to me today.
My wife and I spent the first year of our marriage, fifty-years ago, at 33rd and Wyandot Street in North Denver. A home, four blocks south from our corner sold for $520,000 in 3/2015 and is now "Zillowed" at $742,000 today. Seventeen years ago, we saw this coming when I was in an urban studies class at MSU with the late Myrna Hipp, of the Denver Planning Division as our instructor. My paper studied Scottish-Highlands. At that time, I interviewed Debbie Ortega who commented, then, that she wouldn't be able to afford what her home was worth on the market – seventeen years ago.
A cousin and I breakfast about every other Saturday at Gallup on 32nd and Zuni. We always tour the Highlands, Berkeley and the Sloan's Lake area where we grew up. We can't stomach the boxes that are appearing like zits on a sixteen-year-old. And, friends and family have struck it rich with properties around the Italian-American hood between Tejon and the 38th Street Viaduct.
I think that we were class mates in a recent pastel class at ASLD. Your pastels are really cool. I love your sentence, "Driving down the 'canyons' of an unexplored new territory on 17th Avenue, or watching LoHi busting at its boxy seams . . . ." I equate this with your art.
And, I remember that you told me that you still live on the West Side and attended North High School – CAN YOU BELIEVE WHAT YOU ARE SEEING???
THE NORTH DENVER TRIBUNE has grown up with the neighborhood. Good work.
Thank you. Ciao and Chow
Big developers force out local businesses
April 22, 2016 by admin · Leave a Comment
Jo Daley, Mile High Music
Hello North Denver Tribune:
I read your article yesterday on the changing face of Tennyson. My business was at the corner of 41st and Tennyson for 9 years. Your article did not mention any local businesses being forced out like we were. You only talk of the businesses that WANTED to leave due to parking issues. We were happy there but suddenly one day our landlord emailed us and said at the end of our lease we were to move out and provided no reason.
We were a perfect renter and a great local business providing music classes for families with young children. It turns out a competitor contacted our building owner and offered to pay more rent so she took it, with no value on keeping us there. News of this was all over Highlands Mommies and caused a lot of anger in the 250+ families that attend our classes there.
Small businesses like ours are being forced out so big developers can move in.

Edison Elementary photo surprise delights
David and Gerry Bosley, North Denver Residents
To Basha Cohen:
Hello, my name is David Bosley. My brother's name is Gerry (pronounced Gary) Bosley.
Earlier today in the Postal mail, we got our latest issue of the North Denver Tribune. Inside the Tribune, we found a very nice surprise! Inside, there was an article about the recent 125th anniversary celebration of Edison Elementary school. Well, the surprise was that there was not one, but two photos accompanying the article, taken in the school gym, of my brother and myself! We knew that different people were taking pictures there at the time, but it was a great surprise to see that two photos of us ended up in the Tribune.
A bit of unexpected, but nice, publicity. So, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and whoever, for including our photos with the article. I must tell you that my brother and I enjoyed tremendously, visiting our old school, taking the tour and seeing how much it has changed and been updated since we both left there almost 60 years ago!
We have lived in the West Highlands area since 1953 and have always enjoyed reading the stories in the Tribune. Keep up the good work and thanks, again.
In support of short term rentals
Maureen Wood, North Denver Resident
Dear Editor,
I'm writing to express my support for short term rentals in the city of Denver. The city council is preparing a new ordinance that would regulate short term rentals. The city is due to vote on this ordinance this summer, which will propose the legalization and taxation of short term rentals.
I am a hostess at heart, and none of our family lives in town.
So, when we bought a home with a mother-in-law suite to use for our parents and family, it only made sense to share it with others when our family was not visiting. Over the last year our mother-in-law suite has turned into the neighborhood mother-in-law suite. Many of our neighbors don't have room for their guests to stay with them, and we don't have a hotel in the neighborhood. So when family members come to visit, I have been able to hosts their guests and I have loved making it easier for the people around us to be near their loved ones.
We've also been able to host some business travelers as well as people who want to explore the city. Home sharing has helped these visitors see a part of the city that otherwise would not be easily accessible for someone from out of town. Our visitors almost always ask for recommendations on places to go and their contributions help support the many small businesses in our community.
I know those who may not have much experience with home sharing may be nervous about inviting strangers into the neighborhood, however I can say through my experience I have built relationships and broadened our community with home sharing. The people who stay with us want to get to know not only the restaurants and breweries in our city, but also the people. They fall in love with Denver the same way we all have and they want to stay in our neighborhoods and be a part of this amazing city we've helped create.
Home sharing has enabled us to meet more of our neighbors and their families and help foster a love of Denver for those who come here to work or explore.
I urge everyone to reach out to their city council person and ask them to support the legalization of short term rentals in Denver.
Furor erupts over Stormwater Plan
Christine O'Connor
PARK HILL — At a packed meeting at Park Hill Library March 30, NE Denver residents, and a growing cadre of NW community members who are locking arms with their sister communities to halt both the storm drainage plan and the I70 build-out, let a Denver consultant team know that they weren't buying Denver's fairy tale that a stormwater project was designed to benefit their neighborhoods.
The meeting, hosted by City Park Friends & Neighbors, reflected widespread furor amongst residents who repeatedly claimed that the detention project targeting land in Denver's Historic Cole/Clayton neighborhood and Historic City Park was clearly linked to I70 by a funding agreement between CDOT and Denver. The ramifications of this drainage plan could spill over from NE to NW communities, including Globeville, already in the eye of the I70 storm.
The city team charged with selling the Platte to Park Hill Stormwater Project to the community met with stiff questioning about the Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) that Denver entered into with CDOT in the summer of 2015. One resident asked whether the IGA was instigated by CDOT? (Presenters claimed ignorance.] General disbelief that this project had anything to do with fulfilling a "need" for flood protection for these basins prevailed throughout the meeting, with several long-term residents of Cole and Park Hill denying the severity of the flood issue. Another resident asked why, after years of drought, "What has changed to make this 100-year-flood protection so urgent?" Staff pointed to engineering studies which project high flood depths, to which the resident replied, "Real or perceived?"
After the City team's presentation, a panel of citizens, engineers and activists presented and asked some of the hundreds of questions that have been raised about this project. For example, if Denver has $1.5B in projects for 2 and 5 year storm water infrastructure in all Denver neighborhoods, why are those identified projects being put on hold in order to proceed with the 100-year-flood protection triggered by I70's project?
Cole resident, Kim Morse, asked, "Why is the City proposing a mile long drainage trench along 39th Avenue in an area with an extensive history of environmental soil and water contamination?"
In previous meetings, Celia Vanderloop, the Environmental Project Manager for the North Denver Cornerstone Collaborative, has admitted that although testing of soil under homes has been completed in connection with a superfund site at Vasquez/I70, no testing has been done on soils under commercial, industrial land and right-of-ways. Investigation will take place after the project gets underway. But, those who know about the chemical solvent perchloroethylene (PCE) in Cole, and the smelters and other industrial history of this area, have huge concerns about the safety of this "natural" and "park-like" channel. (The City has promised $39 M of amenities along the channel for bike riding and walking.)
Only one Councilmember braved this meeting about a project that covers three council districts. Councilwoman-at-large Deborah Ortega listened carefully to the clearly distrustful crowd. Ortega, it should be noted, was the only Councilmember who voted against the Intergovernmental Agreement that linked a $134M drainage project with a possible (still not determined) CDOT expansion project. Note, the Council meeting was held July 6, 2015, just before newly elected councilmembers took office.
Ortega asked numerous questions and requested a public hearing on the IGA. "I've been involved for years and a lot of the focus in the IGA is on drainage, some on transportation, and it is important for taxpayers to know what we are committing to."
The project was the result of a joint CDOT, Urban Drainage and Flood Control District (UDFCD), RTD, and Denver Public Works. It is deemed critical to protecting Mayor Hancock's North Denver Cornerstone Collaborative initiative, the "Corridor of Opportunity," that includes the RTD line to the airport, the neighborhoods of Elyria, Swansea & Globeville, the expanded National Western venture, the I70 project, and development in RiNo.
In addition, the IGA was critical in convincing potential P3 contractors that Denver had skin in the game on the I70 Partially Covered Lower Alternative. Diane Barrett, Chief of Special Projects for Mayor Hancock, said at a City Council Infrastructure Committee on June 3, 2015, "This IGA is worth an enormous amount of money to the bidders."
Consultants announced that a decision on proceeding with this project would be made during the first week of April. Although citizens have requested a public comment session with Councilman Jolon Clark, he has not yet responded to the request. It is anticipated – from comments made at each presentation – that the team leaders will advise Council they have held close to 90 meetings with 1400 residents, and met with questions and excitement about the amenities being promised by the City along the drainage channel and in the regarded golf course.
Concerned? Email email@example.com and ask that he investigate the benefit of this project for Denver residents. Ask for time to study the entire drainage area and other options that might not target areas of stability.

Our fundraising for the litigation is progressing, but we still have a long way to go for both the suit the Sierra Club and three community organizations recently filed against the EPA, and for possible future litigation. The plaintiffs need our help.
Donations to this cause, if made directly to the Sierra Club, are tax deductible.
Have you seen this video? I-70 Denver ReImagined
If you know the 12 Denver neighborhoods that are adjacent to I-70 between Central Park Blvd [at Stapleton] to Harlan [at the western limit of Denver], you will understand very-clearly what this could do to improve the health of the residents; to restore the livability for these neighborhoods which were torn-apart in the 1960s when I-70 was installed; and, to improve the connectivity by weaving the urban fabric back together.
If you know the routes along I-270 and I-76, you understand that there are virtually no homes adjacent to the freeway. The negative impacts are incredibly small. The positive impacts, especially for economic development for Commerce City, Adams County and a bit of Arvada is immense.
If you're an I-70 commuter or someone who's concerned about the way your tax dollars are spent, you'll be interested in knowing that the I-270/I-76 re-route concept appears that it will cost HALF the amount compared to CDOT's plan AND it solves the I-70 congestion issues in BOTH directions and on BOTH sides of I-25. At best, CDOT's plan solves the issues in one direction [east] and until widening in NW Denver [at immense expense and tolls on residents], it does so on only one side of I-25.
|We need YOUR HELP with a contribution [PLEASE]! We are now moving the needle on the I-70 expansion as we've been dreaming of for three years. We're garnering media coverage in the local and national press regarding the lawsuit filed against the EPA by local community groups and the Sierra Club.
It feels tragic to us that it has taken a lawsuit to get the attention we've now received, but it's what we needed. The national press is covering this, and local elected leaders are finally realizing that they need to be on the right side of this.
We need to help the plaintiffs with legal expenses. The plaintiffs had to demonstrate to the attorney that they had $15,000 to get started. By asking a small group of people, we raised what was needed to get the suit filed by an attorney. The attorney is among the five best in this arena in the US, and has committed many hours to this to-date at no expense.
Please help today by mailing a check payable to: "Sierra Club Foundation" and specifically writing "RMC I-70 Opposition." IT'S VERY IMPORTANT you put that on the check or it won't go to the right account.
Mail to:
Your Sierra Club Foundation contribution is a 501c3 contribution and is tax-deductible. If you are able to donate more than $1,000, a very simple form must be filled out [link for form below]
Contribute online here. This route will not be tax deductible, but it's easy and fast and can be done with your credit card: https://www.youcaring.com/citizens-for-a-greater-denver-540836#.VuteCyWpjhc.gmail
No amount is too small. Thank you for helping with this important campaign that could potentially fast-track us to a victory!
Thank you VERY much.
City Outlines Support and Work Ahead for I-70 East Project
March 17, 2016 by admin · Leave a Comment
Denver Mayor Michael B. Hancock
As metro Denver continues to grow by tens of thousands of people each year, the reconstruction of Interstate 70 just east of I-25 is increasingly one of the region's most critical transportation projects.
For Denver, the project is also critical to the success of many neighborhoods. Over more than a decade of planning, Denver's No. 1 priority is to ensure the health and safety of the communities that will be impacted by the project. Since Day 1, we have been advocating and fighting for the people of Globeville, Elyria and Swansea.
This week, the project's most recent public input process concluded. I am so proud of the engagement from the innumerable residents and community groups who have worked with the Colorado Department of Transportation to improve the I-70 project and minimize adverse impacts. In partnership, we have seen CDOT advance this project with care and concern for our neighborhoods.
Together, we have made significant progress. We have secured funding for replacement housing and options for displaced residents who want to remain in the community. We have ensured the highway cover will meet the needs of Swansea Elementary and the community as a whole, and we have called for minimal construction-related traffic impacts and improved traffic flow on local streets.
However, it is clear that we have much more work to be done. On Wednesday, the city outlined more than 80 issues that must continue to be addressed in partnership with CDOT. I am grateful for the Denver City Council and Denver city staff who have worked and collaborated to represent the interests of our community.
Together, we continue to advocate for:
• Safe routes to school and bicycle/pedestrian access and connections, particularly when 46th Avenue is closed, between the Swansea and Elyria neighborhoods.
• Mitigation of long-term effects of roadway noise on residents living near the highway, such as home insulation and sound-proof windows.
• Protection of residents' health nearest the highway, including additional ventilation for homes, air monitoring data and other steps to minimize air pollution.
• Replacement housing for displaced residents who want to remain in the neighborhood.
• A plan to ensure local roads are not inundated with highway traffic during construction.
• A four-acre cover and adjacent improvements that mitigate both school and community impacts and provide full benefits to the neighborhoods.
As the I-70 East reconstruction plan takes shape, Denver remains focused on advocating for our residents and businesses. It is my hope that our people will stay engaged so we can ensure the success of these neighborhoods and all of Denver. Together, we will make this project something we can all be proud of.

An Afghanistan Veteran's Letter -- Why am I on food stamps?
Posted in the Terre Haute Forum
#1 Sep 23, 2013
This essay was written by Jason: 35 years old and a white male combat veteran of Afghanistan, Jason has been on food stamps since June. He thinks the reality of being on food stamps isnt shameful, but the fact that people living in the richest country on Earth should go without food to conform to the ideologies of fiscal conservatism and self-reliance is downright un-American.
His letter depicts an America where normal is military service families using food stamps to survive while the soldiers who serve America are busy fighting overseas Shouldnt these people, giving so much for their country, have at least enough to buy food for themselves and their families?
This is the reality of the GOP War on the Poor.
My name is Jason. I turned 35 less than a week ago. My first job was maintenance work at a public pool when I was 17. I worked 40-hours a week while I was in college. Ive never gone longer than six months without employment in my life and I just spent the last three years in the military, one of which consisted of a combat tour of Afghanistan.
Oh, and Im now on food stamps. Since June, as a matter of fact.
Why am I on food stamps?
The same reason everyone on food stamps is on food stamps: because I would very much enjoy not starving.
I mean, if thats okay with you:
Mr. or Mrs. Republican congressman.
Mr. or Mrs. Conservative commentator.
Mr. or Mrs.welfare queen letter-to-the-editor author.
Mr. or Mrs.fiscal conservative, reason-based libertarian.
I do apologize for burdening you on the checkout line with real-life images of American-style poverty. I know you probably believe the only true starving people in the world have flies buzzing around their eyes while they wallow away, near-lifeless in gutters.
Hate to burst the bubble, but those people dont live in this country.
I do. And millions like me. Millions of people in poverty who fall into three categories.
Lets call them the lucky category, since conservatives seem to think people on welfare have hit some sort of jackpot:
Those living paycheck to paycheck? Theyre a little lucky.
Those living unemployment check to unemployment check? Theyre a little luckier.
Those living 2nd of the month to 2nd of the month?*ding* Weve hit the jackpot!
The 2nd of the month being the time when funds gets electronically deposited onto the EBT card,[at least in NY] for those whove never been fortunate enough to hit that $175/month Powerball.
I fall into the latter two categories. But Ive known people recently - soldiers in the Army who were in the first and third. They were off fighting in Afghanistan while their wives were at home, buying food at the on-post commissary with food stamps.
And nobody bats an eye there, because its not uncommon in the military.
Its not uncommon nor is it shameful. It might be shameful how little service-members are paid, but thats a separate issue.
The fact remains anyone at a certain income level can find it difficult from time to time to pay for everything. And when youre poor you learn to make sacrifices. Food shouldnt be one of them.
The whole concept is un-American. People living here, in the greatest country on Earth, with the most abundant resources, should be forced to go hungry because of the intellectual notion of fiscal conservatism and the ideological notion of self-reliance.
Are you f**king kidding me?
I didnt risk my life in Afghanistan so I could come back and watch people go hungry in America. I certainly didnt risk it so *I* could come back and go hungry.
Anyone who genuinely supports cutting food stamps is not an intellectual or an ideologue theyre a bully.
And nobody likes a bully. Except other bullies.
Its time for regular Americans to stand up to these bullies. Not cower in the corner, ashamed of needing help. Because if theres one thing life has taught me, its that you never know when youll be the one in need.

So if a person wants to keep their own property rather than having it taken away by the government and given to people who did not earn it that makes them a bully?
This is nothing but a blatant propaganda piece. A person can be in favor of cutting food stamps as a way stopping waste and fraud. There is nothing wrong with people having intellectual ideas and believing in self reliance and personal responsibility.
Cherry picking the best possible welfare candidate as a means to call anyone who criticizes the system a bully is un-American.

The problem is that most of those people with property did not "earn" it though legal or ethical means. Not to say that there are no people scamming the system.(1/2% in 2012) but if the government really did want to cut waste then they would very clearly start with what expenditures they spend the most on: The Military, Illegal wars, law enforcement and administration and over surveillance of it's own citizens. Believe it or not, everyone being spied on is not automatically a terrorist or criminal just because of a rubber stamp by some unaccountable three letter agency. I am a republican and even I don't want food stamp cut yet until the economy gets more realistic.
This is a recipe that adds fuel to the class-warfare fire and in the end are ingredients for genocide by starvation for the working poor and their families. No offense but please remain conscious of at least the probability of it instead of labeling any proven statistics (that are everywhere if you search) propaganda.

There are no statistics in the original post. It is entirely one person's opinion. It IS propaganda in that it states a position and then concludes that anyone who disagrees with that position is a bully.
#8 Sep 23, 2013
Don't blame libertarians or conservatives for wanting to end welfare fraud and the new culture of a "welfare lifestyle". Blame Democrats and progressive liberals who never learned that you can give a person a fish and he will eat for a day, teach them how to fish and they eat forever. Now days its more like give a man a fish, and he sells it to go buy some rims or iPhone.
Welfare is a temporary means of assistance, not a lifestyle. And while I agree our service members are that last people who should have to go on assistance, the amount of people treating it like an entitlement is crippling this country. I am former military and I am not a bully.

To hell with all of you. You actually expect me to provide for myself, get real bitches. You and the rest of the world owes me everything, I shouldn't be expected to take responsibility and earn my keep... That's unAmerican.
#11 Sep 24, 2013
you tell them good double wide pimp you da man
#12 Sep 24, 2013
point is -- people work multiple jobs, more than 40 hours a week, of whatever work they can find,*including military service*-- and it's still not enough for basic food or medicine. maybe that's not unamerican, but it is a failure of the 'American Dream'-- that is, work hard and you'll make it. which is certainly not what's happening here.
and when job providers collude to keep wages low, deny full time work because they don't want to provide benefits, maybe that's not unAmerican, but it certainly isn't ethical or socially responsible either.
food stamps per person this year provide $4.35 a day. that's hardly a walk in the park.

The government does not produce anything. People produce wealth through their labor. When a person receives something from the government that they didn't work to earn that means that the government took it away from the person who worked for it.
That is not charity. That is initiation of force by one group against another under the disguise of providing charity. Giving something under threat of force is not giving, it is taking.
It is not compassion when one group engineers the system to take things away from people who earned them in order to give those things to people who did not work to earn them. It is merely another way to steal.

Woman Critically Injured In Freak Gas Station Accident
May 5, 2016
A 25-year old female was critically injured in a freak accident Wednesday afternoon after she stopped to pump gas in Flomaton.
The woman stopped her vehicle at the Kangaroo gas station on Sidney Manning Boulevard just before 5 p.m. According to Flomaton Police Chief Bryan Davis, after she got out of the vehicle, she partial re-entered the vehicle but had one leg out of the open driver's door. Somehow the vehicle was put into gear and "took off" in a forward direction, where the driver's door struck a concrete curb, pushing the door closed on the woman's leg.
She was transported by Atmore Ambulance to the helipad at the Escambia County (FL) EMS post in Century, and then flown by helicopter to a Pensacola hospital.
Her name has not been released.

Woman Pleads Guilty To 'Brutal' Murder Of Stepfather Near Munson
May 4, 2016
A young woman accused of the 2014 murder of her stepfather near Munson has now pleaded guilty to a lesser charge of second degree manslaughter. She will be sentenced next month.
Taylor Lynn Crongeyer previously pleaded not guilty to a homicide charge. Prosecutors said she shot 40-year Aubrey Dewayne Cooley who was found dead December 26, 2014, with a gunshot wound to his head at his Dale Hall Road home. He was tied to the trailer hitch of a pickup truck with a rope around his ankles.
When they arrived on scene, Crongeyer exited the residence with a large amount of blood on her clothing, according to an arrest report. When deputies walked through the residence, they found blood spots on the floor, a bedroom mattress and outside on the front and back porch areas. They also found a rifle on the floor at the foot of a bed in the master bedroom.
A spokesman for the Santa Rosa County Sheriff's Office called incident a "brutal homicide", arresting Crongeyer just hours after the shooting.
She remains in the Santa Rosa County Jail without bond.

Escambia County To Provide Financial Assistance To Century For Tornado Cleanup
May 3, 2016
Escambia County Administrator Jack Brown is recommending that the county provide financial assistance to the Town of Century to help cover tornado cleanup expenses.
On February 15, the Town of Century was struck by an EF-3 tornado that had winds estimated to be up to 155 miles per hour that damaged or totally destroyed 109 structures. The Town of Century didn't have the approximate equipment to clean up the debris caused by the tornado, so they rented the equipment from Thompson Tractor Company, Inc., and hired Republic Services to remove the debris.
Town officials believed that FEMA funding would become available to reimburse them for expenses associated with the cleanup, but FEMA determined that the damage was not severe enough for federal assistance.
At Thursday's meeting of the Escambia County Commission, Brown will recommend that county pay invoices from Thompson Tractor Company for $10,042.20 and from Republic Services for $24,413.34.
The invoices total $37,455.54. If approved by the county commission, the Escambia County will make payment on Century's behalf using county operating reserve funds.

Twelve rather large bunches of cilantro.
I know, some people hate it. It tastes like soap. We here are not those people. Clearly.
Salsa making in bulk, because the summer needs salsa, and it's a good source of nutrients, believe it or not. Tomatoes, peppers, onions, spices!

The base image is a painting - years old. The reworking and digitizing was started last night, and I've been working on it all day.
Definitely worth it. Tank top is done; I'll be getting other styles in the shop over the next hour, as many as this headache lets me.

Even if I only did my favorite paintings from the past 4 years, and only riffed digitally on half of those, and even then only came out with one new color/design every other day, I'd still probably end up with close to 1,000 items in the Quirks shop, and weeks' worth of design work, before I got close to done.
I may not be painting now as prolifically as I used to - but I still have one hell of a body of work to draw from. wink emoticon

Zika virus is interesting in that it's not only sexually transmissible, but also carried by mosquitoes. With rising temperatures, the risk to Americans now that Zika is in the U.S. is scarier than ever. Unfortunately for us, our first line of defense -- bats -- are being threatened by their own epidemic, which has a kill-rate of 90 percent.
White-nose Syndrome (WNS) is a disease that's devastating bat populations in North America. The disease is caused by a fungus that was accidentally brought here by humans. This fungus, Pseudogymnoascus destructans, invades the skin of hibernating bats and disrupts both their hydration and hibernation cycles during winter.
Hibernating bats are forced awake by WNS during the winter, burning up limited fat reserves. Many of them are forced to leave hibernation sites before the end of winter, weak, dehydrated and in a fruitless search of food,... more »

15 quart jars later and the big pot needs a good scrub - so it can be used for pressure canning all the salsa that just came out of it.
3.75 gallons of salsa. That should last us through the summer, and hopefully into the fall.
Recipe needs more tweaking, but getting closer. Heating it for canning changes a few things, so I'll adjust for that next time.

Some of the newest in the Quirks lines.
Did some catching up on swim wear and tees yesterday, while working on salsa. Because there were some technical syncing issues, the Quirks shop didn't update until today.

Blend to preferred salsa chunkiness.
I'll be doing this for a while. Each batch of salsa gets poured into the biggest pot I have. I'll simmer for a bit, and season. Might add a few more jalapeños.

The bottom of a box of 25lbs of tomatoes. This odd bit inspired an intense sense of satisfaction, the way they all lined up just right all on their own. Usually a wild jumble. Mwahaha.
:happy sigh:
(Yes, I've seen all those photos of things out of line or perfectly in line. It's not OCD for me - just a deep appreciation of visual harmony.)
2016-04-24 19:54:57 (0 comments; 0 reshares; 3 +1s)
Garlic, jalapeños, cumin. It's the right amount of heat when you can smell the heat, and your tummy does a bit of an urf-flip when you sniff it.
If that makes no sense: it's a lot.

I like the flavor of cilantro, but hate when a leaf of it gets stuck on the roof of my mouth. So, call it what you want, I'm blending it before it goes into the salsa. Perks of making your own - you make it your own. ;)

30 French toast breakfasts, all packed up. Steve did the rolling up of the each set of French toast sticks in press and seal, while I stacked the sets of four for him and bagged the wrapped sets.
With three kiddos, that's about 10 school mornings covered. Now, I have some catch up work to do on Quirks clothing and some Posh work to tackle, and then it's on to making and canning salsa. It was such a hit during taco week, I'm going to try and keep it in house.

TIME AND TITHE is free for kindle from now through April 27th.
Welcome to the continuing war between overt and covert magic, where every choice has consequences. TIME AND TITHE, Changeling's Choice book 2: a modern take on the myths of Faerie.
While it's nominally the second book, each book of Changeling's Choice was designed to be able to be read as a standalone. (Consider one as sequel to the other or the other as prequel.)
"I won't offer any spoilers at all, but I'll just say that there are some great characters at play in this world -- great at being evil and great at being good, sometimes both in the same day. This is a story about politics, power, and intrigue, and at its heart are two teenage sisters trying to do their best."

I've been working on one part of this design all.day.long. It'll go on clothes when it's done, assuming my computer doesn't mutiny on me first.
It's been a blue grey day - with a lot of angry hurt thrown in for good measure. The bright side? The source was easily let go of. Now to just get past the feels. (Feeling used sucks pretty hard core, yanno?)

An 80-year-old man became trapped under a large tree that the wind knocked over this afternoon in the 2500 block of North 90th Street.
The Wauwatosa Fire Department responded at 12:30 p.m.
Firefighters removed the man and took him to a local hospital for evaluation. His injuries did not appear life-threatening, Deputy Chief James Case said.

Join us in attending the premiere Italian automobile and bike show in the Upper Midwest. Polish up your favorite Italian or Italians as the case may be and make it on over to Lake Calhoun.
Arrive early and stay as long as you want. Arrive late and you'll miss half of the cars as many people tend to leave early.
We'll probably make a trip across the street for pizza at Punch before heading home.
If you don't have a functioning Italian, give me a call at[masked] as I'll probably have one or more extras that need to be driven over and back from 37th & Pillsbury.

It was fantastic and I stayed all day! :) Ciao

Great turnout of both cars and people. Didn't do a count or for that matter didn't take photos other than some detail photos of the 1200 mile '71 Fiat 850 Spider that was recently purchased from the mayor of North Branch of all people and places! There seemed to be a lot of interest at the Fiat tent and a lot of interest in next months Coulee Classic Rally.

Volume and profit taking ,but LOOK OUT NEXT WEEK,will probably hit $9.00 by Friday morning,11 AM.
I think thats a little unrealistic to expect that much of a climb in such a short time, but stranger things have happened and for god sake I think we all hope you are on with that prediction,but personally I dont see it.. I think if we get to $6 next week that will be good, and then we may lumber between 6-7 until next earnings..JMHO..
I am definitely concerned about the huge volumne on friday and believe one of two scenarios will play out......scenario #1- somebody or fund sold the hell out of the stock-either shorted or just got out at high 4's.scenario #2- market maker bought hell out of stock because they are buying for their own account. Typically done just before an upgrade as they (mm) plan to move a lot of their clients into the stock this week by using their brokers to place the stock with clients. A new company following the stock will raise the number of analyst from 1 to two and should come close to doubling visibility. 17.4 million shares and we may have about 11 or so million in float. New investors typically buy and wait which will tighten the already tight float tighter. Yes, we very well may see 6 or 7 this week if scenario #2 plays out. Fundamentals are wonderful with $1.66 a share in cash, eps for the coming twelve months of close to $.40 per share. 16 times $.40 is $6.40 and add the cash and we get close to $8.00 per share as a reasonable value...close to a 60% increase from here..A very easy sale for a MM pushing a stock this week. Just my opinion backed by my investment in 11,000 shares------lostinmyownmind
