News That Matters – Wednesday, August 25, 2010

But when the night was done it was clear who had “won” and that was Maryellen Odell. Her answers were on-point. She was well prepared, refused to bicker over bullshit (such as the amount of the county budget) and when closing statements were made where the Senator said he wasn’t interested in “rhetoric” and then dove into a strictly rhetorical argument for support, MEO just hit nail after nail after nail on the head with single shots. . . . → Read More: News That Matters – Wednesday, August 25, 2010

News That Matters – Wednesday, August 18, 2010

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

News That Matters – May 5, 2010

Since 2001 there have been 858 fires and explosions, 69 deaths and 1349 injuries on oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico – alone. Millions of gallons of oil have been spilled making the Gulf one of the most polluted seas on the planet and yet, Republicans are still pushing for more drilling and exploration along US coasts. Can you believe that? Why not spend that time and effort on conservation and alternative energy? Haven’t we done enough damage to our environment with oil and coal? . . . → Read More: News That Matters – May 5, 2010

News That Matters – April 21, 2010

Peekskill Hollow is a large crack in the earth running generally southwest to northeast and connects Kent Cliffs with the heart of Putnam Valley at Oscawana Corners passing through communities of Tompkins Corners, Adams Corners and others along the way. And though this “cow path” has seen suburbanization over the years the history of our place is still widely evident in the old homes, farmsteads and barns that line the way. . . . → Read More: News That Matters – April 21, 2010

News That Matters – April 12, 2010

The countdown to Thursday’s Tea Bagger rally in Carmel is well underway as part time Assemblyman and full time demagogue, Greg “Lock and Load” Ball, and his hired gang of outside agitators, bring their obsolete and un-thought out ideas to the steps of the County courthouse. I have a list of scheduled speakers here somewhere but it’s the same old, same old group of “we’ve heard it all before’s”, nothing new to say, no actual solutions, hot air blowing politicians and politician wannabees. And no, they won’t let Jeff Green speak. What’s with that? . . . → Read More: News That Matters – April 12, 2010
