Let’s look back just a few years to the 1990′s when the US led the world in the field of computers and shared media resources which created an entirely new world resulting in the largest explosion of mass communications and connectivity ever experienced generating trillions of dollars in personal and corporate wealth, marking the US as the global leader in such and earning revenues that ended the decade with a federal surplus. And this was during the decade of the terrorist attack in Oklahoma City. Why not now? What has changed? Who is intentionally keeping us down? . . . → Read More: News That Matters – Wednesday, August 18, 2010

I thought the numbers posted here were a little off the mark and so I did my homework. In 2006, the Ballster pulled 55% of the vote, not 71% as the PSD poster claims. And for the 2008 race against John Degnan he scored 61% of the vote not 75% as was quoted. I would have left a comment on the blog correcting the poster but, as you could guess, the comments section was closed and there’s no contact information available. Now, isn’t that just like him and his peeps? . . . → Read More: News That Matters – April 28, 2010

2010 is going to be an interesting year for politics in Putnam County. The sides are lining up for a couple of Legislative seats and the race for the County Executive’s seat. On the legislative side the Republican machine is gunning to shoot down one of its own, Tony Fusco, trying to remove the one guy who does what a decent legislator should be doing: asking questions and demanding answers. In another race, Maryellen O’Dell, who has been a supporter of sales tax increases and other “fees” to keep the county afloat, may also be facing a primary challenge and we’ll know for certain in a month or two. . . . → Read More: News That Matters – February 8,2010

“Unless we put medical freedom into the Constitution, the time will come when medicine will organize into an underground dictatorship. . . . The Constitution of this republic should make special privilege for medical freedom as well as religious freedom.” Dr. Benjamin Rush – Signer, Declaration of Independence. . . . → Read More: News That Matters – December 28, 2009

What happens when you mix a live performance with soprano Kristin Chenoweth, alto Patti Lupone, tenor Paul Groves(!) and baritone Sir Thomas Allen with the New York Philharmonic conducted by Marin Alsop and toss them all together into the middle of a Voltaire classic directed by Lonny Price? You get a concert version of Leonard Bernstein’s “Candide” good enough to convince you that opera, at least spoofs on opera, are true entertainment worth gathering the family and setting aside two hours for some knock-your-socks-off entertainment. Just watching Chenoweth toy with “Glitter and be Gay” is the worth the price of the Netflix rental alone and Groves’ long, lingering notes are, as a friend of mine would say, “to die for”. After viewing the DVD you will agree that this was the best of all possible worlds. . . . → Read More: News That Matters – August 31, 2009
