Public Safety Director Bud Mertz provided information on the costs and funding of out of date radio equipment that is needed for the 9-1-1 Center.
Lloydsville Volunteer Fire Department had their new rescue truck arrive just in time for the meeting and members were able to check out the new rig before and after the meeting.

Information presented by the principle organizer of a proposed volunteer fire police department in Westmoreland County. A four page handout with the purpose, description of the volunteer fire police officer and why it would be a benefit the county fire departments. The handout was presented for each member to take home and review and think about the proposed organization. More information will follow in the future.
38 Members of the Chief's Association attended the second meeting of the year at Bradenville. Dirk Matson from Human Services was present to provide an update on the heroin epidemic in Westmoreland County. We are at 63 deaths this year at this pace and near the pace of 86 of 2013. The past year was one of the highest in the last 12. Heroin deaths are about the same as prescription drug deaths, due to new care by hospitals and pharmacies and the fact that Marijuana is more expensive than heroin now. Narcan good Samaritan Bill has been passed. Narcan is being to be considered to be carried by fire departments. There will be a training class to learn how to administer the life saving drug.
HC Global http://www.1hcglobal.com/12 presented the Watch Dog pager. Discussion about the pagers were opened to the floor and questions were answered about the use and ease of use of the County bid awarded for the Watch Dog. Brian Jones as new Public Safety Director stated that pagers are all about choice and the system was designed to provide the best service. The current county radios are nearing end of life and the new Motorola line is the Apex line and be aware that nearing end of life could be within five years and it is time to start thinking about new radios. 911 funding of wireless is due to expire in June and we need to make sure the funding stays in place and asking the representatives to make sure that funding is going to remain available.
Field Representative Tyler D. Olsen with the Insurance Services Office Community Hazard Mitigation Services addressed the Chief's Association at Bradenville March 28, 2014. Insurance Services Office announced some of the changes to those items that were in place since 1980 and relayed some the items just recently updated. He provided a list of all communities in the County. The point system is as follows: 10 communication, 40 water service, 50 based on fire department remained the same. Community risk reduction is the main purpose of the ISO. Fire investigation, code enforcement, and fire education that reduces the risk of fire loss is the central purpose of ISO. You can get bonus points on certain items such as fire investigation. Automatic aid staff (must be within qualifications) is now credited, you will get points for mutual aid assistance that you have in place. ISO no longer conducts field flow testing as July 1, 2013. It is the responsibility of the water department to flow the hydrants and get the data. The whole process now only takes about an hour to an hour and a half. The process has simplified a great deal from years before. A Community Risk Reduction packet is available by contacting his office. The insurance industry uses the ISO rating as community classification for writing policies and qualifying risk.

Sam Saraff addressed the meeting on the pager options that are now available. Research has been done recently and only two responded to the bid offering for the County RFP. Watchdog won bid for the County, Minitor 6 came in second on the bid price. Now Minitor 6 has matched the Watchdog price within 50 cents. You can purchase whichever pager you choose. There is a new pager now available called Unication available and he discussed their capabilities. To set off your own pagers you will need an additional frequency beyond the fire and EMS that the County has and the Unication pager can do that for you. Information is available on all the capabilities upon request.
Presenters Dirk Matson of Westmoreland County Human Services and Ken Bacha of the Coroner's office talked about the propensity of drug abuse and the prescription drug abuse that has created a major problem in our County and in our pocketbook. Handouts were provided showing the causes and age range of the victims of overdose. A community based task force and a partnership of law enforcement is trying to spearhead ways to look at the root causes of these overdoses. The main goal of the task force is to reduce overdose deaths by 25%in five years. It is about 2/3 prescription overdose deaths and 1/3 heroin. Ken asked that you take considerable care of your prescription medications and keep them under lock and key.

Public Safety Director Brooker discussed the Federal mandate for narrow banding. The current equipment is obsolete and needs to be updated. Whenever it fails it takes a long time to find replacement equipment and is difficult to keep working. The old system has limited coverage and has lots of dead spots. He described the importance of tone and voice and how it was decided upon by the committee to be sure to maintain that ability.
EMS equipment is not as old as the Fire paging equipment but needs replaced also. Low band fire is not compliant and High band EMS is not compliant either. Also, there is no redundancy and it would be important to go forward with that in mind. A waiver has been drafted to the FCC to extend the deadline to implement the system.
We will move to a ten tower simulcasting system and the alert will go out countywide. Utilization of two seperate highband VHF Channels and in the event of failure there will be the possibility of using the redundant side of this new system. There will be a phased transistion of the low band fire paging and it will be kept lit until January 1, 2015. This will allow two grant periods to get the new equipment. Upgrading to Minitor V pagers will be pursued and negotiating a County discount on Minitors and programming will be also in the planning. The Commissioners are looking at purchasing some equipment for all services such as was done in the implementation of the 800 mhz system to help get this started. This will be procured with a competitive process and hopefully keep the best price available for the departments.
The timeline will be an installation and testing of 3-4 months. Looking at adding an additional channel to the 800 mhz in the East and North. FCC waiver will be July 1st. Please do not purchase any low band pagers for the fire and no non-compliant highband pagers for EMS the director stated in the near future.
Establishing a baseline of coverage is prioritized in bettering fire and EMS coverage with the sytem. A map of the coverage was provided and discussion of the components of activating pagers was described by Director Brooker and how important it will be to consider setting off pagers for small devices and not just fire whistles. It will be tried to get 95% in street coverage and there are a lot of challenes in our multi-terrain County but it should be as good as if not better for tone and voice situational awareness that the Director is willing to guarantee.
Please contact Director Brooker or Deputy Director Jones for further information. Also please bring issues that you may have to the County Radio Communication Committee through your representatives.

MD&DI article summarizes DES manufacturing difficulties. Focuses on BSC recovery and on Cordis problems with Cypher and new products going forward.
Interesting to note that the coating problems are now leaking out (no pun intended) into general industry press: �Industry observers say that the most significant problem that remains is adequately explaining failures of drug-elution tests, which gauge whether the correct amount of drug has been eluted over a certain period of time.�
The coating process (particularly methyl methacrylate topcoat) still elude validation efforts. Not a good sign for the commercial viability of Cypher going forward.
Yeah, joker, rad3, and endoqd (to name a few) have a way of shunning anybody who is not pro BSX. Boards are for discussion not cheerleading. Paid pumpers? Probably the same person. Don't dare say anything bad about Taxus! I've been slammed simply because of my name. I post here because nothing ever happens on the SRDX board. The JNJ board sucks and I want to get info on the DES wars.
"the more time you spend stating your opinion, the less time you have to think about the facts"
<"I can't tell whether you keep purposely missing my point or if you are just being obtuse.">
I'm not really sure which point you think I have missed, but you certainly seem to object to my trying to make points of my own.
<"OK, you're right. The time saved is minimal. Feel better?">
Thank you, but the point I would rather hit home is that jsocolow (who may never post again after his "outing") had something worth contributing.
Were you on the debate team in college? lol
I can't tell whether you keep purposely missing my point or if you are just being obtuse.
No, I get it, you need to be right.
OK, you're right. The time saved is minimal. Feel better?
<"I get that we are stuck with each other....I have to put up with an SRDX long coming to the BSX board to ask a short what he thinks of Taxus.">
If you will recall, I didn't ask him what he thought of Taxus - I asked him how much time saving there was as a result of better handling. Bias creeps into everything, but less so when recounting a stat than interpreting it.
I believe him that the time saving is minimal. It doesn't mean stent handling ("deliverability") doesn't influence which stent is used - in fact, without going back to check, I believe he said that all things being equal cardiologists would pick the better handling platform.
That Taxus handles better than Cypher is a given. That this is a big factor in marketshare is a given.
But most likely it isn't time savings or primary lesion success that translates better handling into bigger marketshare - it is the more intangible (but none the less important) sense of control, or ease of use, conveyed by the better platform.
<"If you are going to suggest people whose opinions don't tow the party line shouldn't contribute here you are asking for a pretty useless exchange of information.">
My, you do jump to conclusions.
<"We all have bias. You have some of the most extreme bias on the board.">
I believe you should have said that I display my bias openly and passionately. I think that is a more honorable behavior than to contain your bias while pretending to be having a dialog.
You have your style of posting, I have mine.
I don't expect to be elected prom queen so that frees me to say what I want.
I don't remember ever telling anyone to go away, shut up, or get lost. I get that we are stuck with each other....I have to put up with an SRDX long coming to the BSX board to ask a short what he thinks of Taxus.
<"Unlike Foolish, I wouldn't ask a short his opinion, unless I wanted a bash.">
We all have bias. You have some of the most extreme bias on the board. Are you suggesting we should dismiss anything you say because of it?
Reread his answer. He has attempted to be balanced despite his personal bias.
If you are going to suggest people whose opinions don't tow the party line shouldn't contribute here you are asking for a pretty useless exchange of information.
Thanks for all your insights.
Hey Doc:
Are you the Socolow from Illinois and your name is Josh? Nice program Emory but it didn't say you did an Interventional Fellowship so I am not sure what your experience is with delivering stents. Seems you are more into non-invasive. If you were at Emory, what was your opinion of JOhn Douglass and Doug Morris, both men whom I admire and respect?
PS...if you are Josh Socolow, you should really change your screenname and go more anonymous. Not good for your practice and reputation to post on these inane MB's...lol
what is your med background? I was curious as to which hospital you are associated with. For the group at our hospital there is a 50/50 split between Cypher & Taxus, mostly having to do with contracts stipulating use of both. But in terms of deliverability ease the interventional cardiologists here prefer Taxus. I am curious to see the results from the AHA conference...
Dr J posted that he was going short last week.
Unlike Foolish, I wouldn't ask a short his opinion, unless I wanted a bash.

I started to look at the consumer experiences of others with Samsung refrigerators and found many persons with similar problems on the consumeraffairs.com site and a site titled Samsung Class Action Suit with over 100 complaints of refrigeration coils freezing up on these products. Reading through these complaints a common thread seems to be a reluctance by Samsung to admit that a problem exists, or to provide remedy for the problem.
As a first step I will contact Samsung's customer service, gauge, record, and report their response to the problem. In the meantime our family's food is nice and cool in the spare 16 year old Hotpoint refrigerator that we have, which as of this time has required no service calls.

I noticed when I visit a page on my site, the status bar on my browser refers to http://www.coolcode.cn. I am very new to wordpress, so this may be a common thing...but I couldn't find much explaining the call out to coolcode.
I added a few plugins (thickbox and mygallery) and suspect it's something with them (ajax?). If I disable either one, I don't see it reference the site...
Any insite? Should I be concerned? coolcode.cn doesn't look too friendly.

I sometimes think discussions with Corbyn supporters is a bit like talking to one half of a couple going through a bad patch in their relationship. Let's call them PLP and LPM. There is no doubt that for many years PLP had taken LPM for granted. And as a friend to both you can wholeheartedly agree that PLP's flirtation with austerity in recent years was a serious breach of trust, and more generally a very foolish thing to do. You agree that in those circumstances LPM getting into bed with Corbyn was quite understandable.
But you can see that Corbyn is no good for LPM. Their relationship is going nowhere. What is more PLP is, perhaps as a result, full of remorse. Austerity has long gone, and PLP is promising almost everything LPM wants. You know that when LPM and PLP work together they are a great couple, perhaps even a winning couple. Yet when you try to say this to LPM you either get the hurt of an aggrieved party (how can I ever trust them again), or worse still the poisoned words of despair (that even at their best as a couple they were no better than anyone else).
So when I ask how can you expect Corbyn with only the confidence of 20% of his MPs to get many votes, I'm told that the PLP should not be able to dictate who the leader is, as if that somehow negates my point. [1] Life with Corbyn may be going nowhere, but it is all PLP's fault. When I point out Corbyn's major mistake during the Brexit campaign, I'm told it probably had no effect so why should it matter.
But it does matter. What Corbyn and his team decided to do as part of their Brexit campaign was to rubbish Osborne's claims about the economic harm Brexit could do. They were rubbishing the key part of the Remain campaign. That decision was certainly an embarrassment for that campaign, and for his own PLP colleagues. It was a slap in the face for academic economists, 90% of whom did think that Brexit would be harmful.
Not only was it the wrong thing to do for those reasons, but it also puts Corbyn in a far weaker position after the Brexit vote. Let me quote a comment from that earlier post from Mike Berry, who knows a thing or two about the media. He says it was
"a gargantuan, colossal and highly stupid strategic error. If Corbyn, McDonnell and the rest of the shadow cabinet had repeated endlessly the warnings of economists about what would happen and continued this after the results, day after day after day on all the main media outlets they would now be in a very strong position because they would be able to conclusively pin the responsibility for the negative economic consequences of Brexit on the Tories. They could have forced the Tories to own the slump and shredded their deserved reputation for economic competence for a generation. Deeply disappointing."
So why did they make such a big error? According to this report, "the Shadow Treasury team vetoed a story developed by Labour's policy team for Shadow Chief Secretary Seema Malhotra, which warned of the effect of Brexit on the value of sterling." It goes on: "Those close to the Shadow Chancellor felt that the independence referendum in Scotland had shown how Project Fear went down badly with Labour voters. McDonnell's Economic Advisory Council (EAC) would have felt the sterling crisis idea was counter-productive too, one source said."
It was blindingly obvious, from either macro theory or from market reaction to polls, that sterling would depreciate sharply if the UK voted Brexit. Mike Berry's point continues to apply. But the reason given for not going with this is bizarre. Leaving the EU, as with Scottish independence, will have serious economic consequences for the UK and Scotland respectively. To not mention this, or worse still trash others that do, because it might not be believed is extraordinary logic. (It is like saying a lot of people do not believe in man made climate change, so let's start supporting climate change denial.)
It is fine to talk about some of the issues the Remain campaign was ignoring, like workers rights, but you can do that without rubbishing what other people on the same side are saying.
What added insult to injury when I read this account was the reference to the EAC. The EAC certainly did not say that Corbyn should discount economists claims about economic costs, or that the likely exchange rate depreciation should not be mentioned. Some of us may have said that talk of some kind of financial crisis similar to 2008 was going over the top, but that is completely different. (A substantial depreciation is not a financial crisis.) It's not good to misrepresent the EAC as a cover for bad decisions. You do not need to take my word for this. To quote from the statement five of us made after Brexit and Danny Blanchflower's resignation: "we have felt unhappy that the Labour leadership has not campaigned more strongly to avoid this outcome".
The reaction of Corbyn's supporters to all this is to respond to a very different accusation, which is that Corbyn helped lose the Brexit vote. But that is something that is virtually impossible to decide. The issue for me is not whether Corbyn in undermining the Remain campaign influenced the final vote, but that he did it in the first place.
One possibility of course was that he was quite happy to undermine that campaign because of his own ambivalence towards the EU. After all, he did take a holiday during the campaign (imagine if Cameron had done that), and he didn't actually campaign that hard. But let us instead take him at his word. What we have then is a major strategic failure by him and his team, a failure that will have consequences for the future.
A large part of politics over the next few years will be about Brexit. The Prime Minister is extremely vulnerable on this issue given the splits in her party. There is a huge difference between the various forms of Brexit, and a united Labour party with a passionate advocate of European engagement leading it could help influence events. If there is an economic downturn as a result of the uncertainty over Brexit the government must be made to own that downturn in voters eyes. You cannot do that if the leader of the opposition said the downturn wouldn't happen.
Let me end with a quote from a recent article by Martin Jacques. While I disagreed with his unqualified description of New Labour as neoliberal, I think he gets Corbyn exactly right in this quote.
"He is uncontaminated by the New Labour legacy because he has never accepted it. But nor, it would seem, does he understand the nature of the new era. The danger is that he is possessed of feet of clay in what is a highly fluid and unpredictable political environment"
I know it has only been a year. I know recent betrayals still hurt. But the road Labour is currently on leads nowhere, and the longer it takes for the membership to realise that the more damage is done. Once you stop seeing the alternative through jaundiced eyes it is so much better.
[1] Logical consistency often goes out of the window in such discussions. I'm asked how can I know that this no confidence vote will damage Labour in a General Election by the same people who tell me Corbyn's current unpopularity in the polls is because Labour is split.

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. (KKCO) Watching out for wildlife is something motorists are always cautioned to do, but as days get shorter, the risk for running into wildlife increases.
November is a dangerous month for motorists and wildlife. With dusk approaching earlier, drivers have reduced visibility. It's a danger compounded by the face that wildlife is more active this month.
"Have wildlife that's migrating from their summer range down into their winter range and so you're going to see lots of wildlife crossing highways," said Mike Porras of Colorado Parks and Wildlife.
Wildlife officials caution drivers to slow down when driving at night, that will help you maintain control of your vehicle if you swerve to avoid an animal in the roadway.
It is also a good idea to look out for wildlife crossing road signs, that will clue you in about where it is more likely you will see animals.

You have some nice close up pictures here...Kenny....are you using a fixed length 250mm...for these shots...?...Dj..
No its still my 55-250mm but the truth is it was just a spot in the middle of the frame. Its heavily cropped and sharpened a bit. I yearn for a longer focal length but even if funds did allow I suppose I would only end up taking bird photos even farther away and cropping down!!!

So my DD's name is Lilyana. We are having another girl and both DH and I like the name Violet. Our only concern is that they are both flower names lol. DH is concerned that if we happen to have a third girl someday, we will be obligated to name her something with a flower in it! What do you think? Does it matter?
We like names that are pretty/feminine, not too popular but not too unique. If you have any other name suggestions, they would be appreciated!

ATHENS, Ga. (AP) -- Thomas Brown ran for 180 yards and three touchdowns as Number 15 Georgia beat Mississippi 45-to-17 today.
The game was tied 17-all early in the third quarter before Brown, who scored earlier on a 50-yard run, took over.
The senior had four carries and one catch for a combined 45 yards on a seven-play touchdown drive that ended with his 4-yard scoring run. He added a 41-yard touchdown run early in the fourth quarter.
Brown's rushing total was the high for Georgia since 2001, when Verron Haynes ran for 207 yards against Georgia Tech. He matched his career high with the three touchdown runs.
Georgia's total of 328 yards rushing was its most in seven years under coach Mark Richt, topping its 280 yards against Louisiana-Monroe in 2005.

After 120 wins in five seasons and back-to-back trips to the state championship series, Greenbrier High School fired Head Baseball Coach Chris Wilkins Monday.
No one close to the situation is commenting on the decision, but it's raising eyebrows in the community because of his success on the diamond.
Wilkins was named head coach before the 2009 season, and compiled a 120-60 overall record, including 27-12 in the postseason.
Wilkins has been at Greenbrier for nine years, including a stint as an assistant baseball coach before landing the head coach job. He graduated from Westside High School, playing for the legendary Gerald Barnes.

One of Baseball's Best Pitches Is Missing
There's a sense that Jake Arrieta isn't quite what he's been before. It's not entirely untrue — a season ago, Arrieta put together a historic campaign. He set the bar so high for himself that it would be next to impossible to meet the updated expectations. But, you know, Arrieta's still been terrific. Last year, opponents batted .185. This year they've batted .183. He ranks fourth among qualified starting pitchers in ERA, and even since his ERA dipped under 1 around the beginning of May, it's been just a little over 3. Last year's National League Cy Young came down to Arrieta, Zack Greinke, and Clayton Kershaw. Kershaw's hurt. Greinke's already allowed 19 more runs than he did a season ago. Arrieta is doing just fine.
He simply seems a wee bit less automatic. From the perspective of an observer, he's made it more difficult to take outs for granted. From the perspective of an analyst, Arrieta's command has wobbled. And what's maybe most interesting here: Arrieta apparently doesn't have a feel for his slider. Or cutter. Or whatever. You know what I mean. Arrieta has managed a low ERA while, underneath, he's had trouble finding what had been one of the truly elite pitches in the game.

Hailed by critics as the movies' most unblinking portrait of slavery, "12 Years a Slave" verified its front-runner status with nominations including best film drama, Chiwetel Ejiofor for best actor in a drama, Steve McQueen for best director and Michael Fassbender and Lupita Nyong'o for their supporting roles.
"American Hustle" dominated on the Globes' other category side: comedy or musical. The fictionalized story of the FBI's Abscam investigation in the late 1970s earned nominations for best movie comedy and David O. Russell for best director. Much of its starry cast received nominations, including lead actors Christian Bale and Amy Adams, as well as last year's Oscar darling, Jennifer Lawrence for best supporting actress.
Also in the mix are Alexander Payne's father-son road trip "Nebraska," with five nominations, including best actor for Bruce Dern. The space odyssey "Gravity" earned four nominations, as did the Somali pirate thriller "Captain Phillips," starring Tom Hanks as the kidnapped cargo ship captain.
Alfonso Cuaron's innovative 3-D spectacle "Gravity," for which star Sandra Bullock received a best actress nomination, should be a bigger heavyweight at the Academy Awards, which honor technical categories that the Globes don't.
This year's comedy competition — usually a mixed bag compared to the dramatic categories — could be the strongest field ever for the Globes. Aside from "American Hustle," the group includes Martin Scorsese's "The Wolf of Wall Street," Alexander Payne's "Nebraska," Spike Jonze's "Her" and the Coen brothers' "Inside Llewyn Davis."
The soulful futuristic romance "Her" and 1960s Greenwich Village folk tale "Inside Llewyn Davis" both reaped three nominations, including nods for its stars: newcomer Oscar Isaac for "Llewyn Davis" and Joaquin Phoenix for "Her."
The last film of 2013 to screen, Scorsese's three-hour financial industry extravaganza had been one of the biggest question marks this awards season. It earned a nomination for Leonardo DiCaprio's performance as an out-of-control Wall Street trader, along with the best picture nomination.
The 77-year-old Dern rounds out best actor in a comedy for his performance as a taciturn Montana man who believes he's won a mailing sweepstakes. He's joined on the dramatic best actor side by another 77-year-old veteran, Robert Redford. The actor, who hasn't ever won an acting Oscar, was nominated by the Globes for his nearly unspoken performance as a man shipwrecked in the Indian Ocean in "All Is Lost."
In the dramatic best picture category, "12 Years a Slave" was joined by "Captain Phillips," "Gravity," "Philomena" and "Rush." Most notably shutout was "Lee Daniels' The Butler."
The awards and their boozy telecast are known for a desire to attract stars, even if their films aren't quite up to snuff. This season's ceremony on Jan. 12 will again be hosted by Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, who led last year's broadcast to 19.7 million viewers, a significant bump for the Globes. They often serve a preamble to the more prestigious Oscars, which will be held March 2.
This year's Cecil B. DeMille lifetime achievement award will be given to Woody Allen, who, long a absentee from award shows, isn't expected to attend.
The last two years, one of the Globes' best-picture winners went on to top the Academy Awards.
Disney's making-of "Mary Poppins" tale "Saving Mr. Banks," a possible Oscar contender, fared poorly Thursday, earning only a nomination for Emma Thompson's lead performance as "Poppins" author P.L. Travers. While the Texas HIV drama "Dallas Buyers Club" was rewarded with expected nominations for Matthew McConaughey and Jared Leto, it failed to land any others.
McConaughey, Redford and Ejiofor are joined in best actor by Tom Hanks for "Captain Phillips" and Idris Elba, who plays the late Nelson Mandela in "Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom."
A film that could have easily been a theatrical release, Steven Soderbergh's Liberace drama "Behind the Candelabra," topped the Globes' television nominations. The HBO film helped lead the cable network to a leading nine nominations.
The digital platform Netflix, though, emerged as a new challenger with six total nods. The subscription service's "House of Cards" tied "Candelabra" with four nominations.

Skip to comments.Do you agree with Senator Casey's vote on ACORN funding? (Poll)
Posted on 09/18/2009 6:23:58 AM PDT by Red in Blue PA
TODAY'S QUESTION: Do you agree with Senator Casey's vote on ACORN funding? (Poll closes at 7 p.m.)
YES (73 responses)
NO (435 responses)
508 total responses
(Excerpt) Read more at mcall.com ...
Poll on right.
Also, Freepers need to go to the website http://www.gradegov.com/ and give Representatives and Senators, like Casey, a Grade of "F" and send an e-mail along with it.
470—NO / 77—YES. 77 dummies and more to come!
he is in their campaign (if it is the same casey)
check out begala around the 8 minute mark.
My call to Senator Casey's office this morning was met with...
"The Senator believes the court system should decide whether or not this was a few individuals involved as opposed to an entire organization that is corrupt."
My response was, I will do everything to make sure your Senator and you are looking for a job in the not to distant future.
"In explaining Mr. Casey's vote, Stephanie Zarecky, his spokeswoman, distinguished between ACORN and ACORN Housing, which is "legally distinct from ACORN."
ACORN has never received federal money while ACORN Housing has received money to help low-income people "obtain housing and to avoid foreclosure," she said".
...this is PRECISELY what the hooker and pimp were going for!! To "obtain housing"!
I agree that Senator Casey voted to support interstate organized criminal activities with tax payer money and should be charged with RICO violations as a result.
He was one of the seven Senators who voted to continue the funding for ACORN.
YES, I support his vote: 11.2%
NO, I do not support his vote: 88.8%
The correct choice for conservatives is NO! on this poll.
You can only "grade" once a day on that website, but, you can give the grade, A, B, C, D, or F to any Congressman or Senator. And, of course, you can e-mail them at the same time if you so choose.
Have a great day!
Your Post #18 is priceless!
Less than a thousand votes so far. An Easy Freep!
Oh No!!! I just thought of something!!! This could mean that when Democrat Casey Jr. runs for re-election, he could very well get the Black vote now..... Oh my.... (/s)

Topic: New England Environment
Topic: New England Environment
[total-poll id=598098]
I love the stone walls created in New England. The varieties, some rocks, hoisted on on another, and others, cemented to create a beautiful artistry.
On the best Fried Clams, you missed Flo's Clam Shack in Newport. They are the BEST. We went to the Flo's other shack in Portsmouth last year and it was awesome. The prices are reasonable and they give you enough food for at least 2 people.
For years covered bridges, lighthouses, and fried clams always made many think of New England. However, the more I travel through the US, I find more people equate our Lobster with New England – usually Maine.
Portland Head Lighthouse is the best New England icon – hands down.
Lobster for sure because New England is the only place you can get it. There are lighthouses, covered bridges, maple syrup elsewhere, but if you want good lobster, real lobster, you have to go to New England.
It has to definitely be covered bridges, many of which are endangered, in need of repair or conservation, as the most widespread symbol in all of New England, whether or not they're on highways or railroad tracks.
I love the covered bridges! They are a major part of New England's history. The bridges capture the beauty of New England's seasons in all their glory.
Lobster alone is deliciously unique to New England. Bless the one who figured out it was edible!
Partial to Motif #1 in Rockport Mass
I grew up in the South, BUT I have always loved New England. Especially the lighthouses and covered bridges. That's why I love Yankee Magazine. It helps fuel my desire for New England.
I love all of those New England icons. I'm from Fall River, MA so I would have to say it's Plymouth Rock, having seen it quite often and knowing what that rock meant to the Pilgrims.
Plymouth is where my original New England Ancestor came ashore in 1621, so it HAS to be Plymouth Rock!
when i was a lot younger , i was taught the art of building a dry stone wall by an old New England farmer .. i have been told that a dry stone wall will last forever as long as it was built the correct way (no cement needed ) . the largest wall i have constructed was made using a crane and rocks the size of cars , but due to town laws it had to be capped with cement . the wall is 10′ high and 300′ long and is around 8 ' deep
I would drive thru every covered bridge,climb up every lighthouse just to sit down to a beautiful fresh lobster dinner.
Lobster is at the top of my list , but I love the scenic covered bridges and lighthouses.
lighthouses &whole bellied clams
Covered bridges
Covered bridges and lighthouses are my favorites
Whole Belly Fried Clams, anywhere in NE –
Lobster – Anywhere in Maine
Maple Syrup – Vermont
Most photographed – Nubble Light, ME
I vote for Covered Bridges, even though I also LOVE our lighthouses and maple anything, and work in Plymouth MA!
Other areas have covered bridges and lighthouses, but there is nothing more New England than LOBSTER,
I grew up in Rhode Island and spent many summers in Maine. I have always saw our Lighthouses as the typical New England icon. I recently visited some of the most iconic; Portland Head Light, and Pemaquid Point Light.
All the icons say New England especially the lighthouses and great sea food .However when I think of a New England "picture" it is stone walls, white fences, and the beautiful fall foliage bathing all in a golden glow. Hills in the background and a distant farm would make it perfect.
Of course it depends on the season, walking the great beaches and enjoying the wonderful winter snow is also so good for the soul.
Then there are the old manufacturing towns with the manufacturing sites along the rivers many of which [with Yankee Ingenuity ]have been re-purposed for different, current, functions. These hold the story of how our country became great.
The lighthouse……they always remind me of Maine
I couldn't agree more! Stunning!
Really like our lighthouse, but there are lighthouses all up and down the shoreline around the country. There are lighthouses on the great lakes. This is why I voted for the covered bridges. Have been on / over very many, some are quite the marvel.
Maple syrup… It is made in every New England state…not so much in RI, but still made. And it is super delicious. Although I love all the other choices, each one is not unique to all of the New England states. You won't find awesome lobster or clams in VT ubless they are imported from another New England state.

Underwear-clad statue creeping out Massachusetts college
This is creepy. So, so creepy.
According to the Boston Globe, a realistic statue at Wellesley College is getting all sorts of negative attention and for good reason.
The statue is of a sleepwalking man wearing nothing but his underwear. Oh, did I mention this is an all-women's college?
The student body has complained about the statue and has filed a petition to get it removed.
"[T]his highly lifelike sculpture has, within just a few hours of its outdoor installation, become a source of apprehension, fear, and triggering thoughts regarding sexual assault for many members of our campus community," says the petition, which was penned by student Lauren Walsh. "While it may appear humorous, or thought-provoking to some, it has already become a source of undue stress for many Wellesley College students, the majority of whom live, study, and work in this space."
School officials said the statue is part of New Gravity, an art exhibit by sculptor Tony Matelli that is currently on display at the school's Davis Museum. The museum's director, Lisa Fischman, said the statue was placed by a roadway on campus to garner attention.
"We placed the Sleepwalker on the roadside just beyond the Davis to connect the exhibition — within the museum — to the campus world beyond," Fischman wrote, also posting it on Change.org as her response to the petition. "I love the idea of art escaping the museum and muddling the line between what we expect to be inside (art) and what we expect to be outside (life).
Oh, it's gotten a response alright. The entire Internet is now in fear of this statue popping up outside their window at 3 a.m.
