The CFL Fraud
A compact fluorescent light (CFL) on the ceiling burst and started a
fire in a home in Hornell, N.Y. December 23, 2010. "Those are the lights everybody's been telling us to use," said Joe Gerych, Steuben County Fire Inspector. "It blew up like a bomb. It spattered all over." [more] http://www.americanthinker.com/2011/...cfl_fraud.html |

The CFL Fraud
I used to know a gal from Hornell,New York.That was back around December
1969 when I worked part time at a Krystal hamburger restaurant on Terry Road. Her New York accent, she pronounced box as bax.A Seargent (Seargent Funk) in our 114th Aviation Company ammo supply unit at Tan Son Nhut was from Mechanicsville,New York. Everytime I stepped into that office to dial a phone number to let a certain office know we had a load of ammo sitting on the Hard Stand, I always had to say, WORKING! cuhulin |

The CFL Fraud
That telephone in that office was for Official Business, ONLY!
Seargent Bates had told me before the first time I hauled a pallet load (with a forklift) of ammo to that Hard Stand and when I step into that office to Always say, WORKING! Then I would dial that phone number and then I hop back on that forklift and get on back to our ammo dump. ///Hey, Mope, Mope, Mope/// Whatchoo you want now, Sang? http://www.tsna.org cuhulin |

'Special-Dave -proclaims- Fiscal Martial Law in Michigan !

http://badgerherald.com/oped/2011/04...tial_law_s.php The implementation of Fiscal Martial Law in Michigan and the raising specter of such legislation’s enactment in Wisconsin make it clearer than ever the true nature of the enemy. The Republican assault on our democratic values, local governance and workers’ right to have a voice in the work place can best be described as a fascist coup-d’état. In the words of Mussolini, “fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power.” The Republicans’ bare-knuckle dedication to cutting taxes on corporations at the expense of the deficit and the middle class exemplifies their loyalty to corporate interests over those of every-day Americans. Perhaps more so than any measure rolled out in recent months, Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder’s implementation of Fiscal Martial Law legislation leaves no room for ambiguity in the Republican gameplan.

My standard advice to all: Go to work and save and invest your money. If necessary get two jobs. Bottom line, save as best as you can, and do your best to avoid living paycheck to paycheck. Excellent advice for public service workers protected by unions, longshoremen still with a strong union, excellent wages, adequate benefits and retirement, for small business owners (a disappearing breed), people like me who worked union and had my own small business (transferring it to family now I am retired), etc. but not so good for the 18%+ who are unemployed in my area. They are not unemployed because they want to be, but simply because their jobs are in china, india, indonesia, etc. Working two jobs has always meant putting together full employment for yourself, even if it takes two jobs, until you have a ~40-48 hr. work week. Now, the slave masters have stepped in and they are expecting people to work 80 hr work weeks! Insanity! I only did this when it was my own business, my boss was myself, I had complete control over my working conditions, I chose the people to help me (employees), my hours, breaks, etc., and I got all the profits from my intensive labors. I have to admit, I would have NEVER done that for two minimum wage jobs .... one of my neighbors is doing that, it is hard to watch ... a year and a half of watching him and I can't see him getting ahead at all, he fears being laid off one job as I write this. I think what he has been though would have killed most men. If you have a problem, and you apply a fix --- and you still have the problem, so you reapply the fix ... at some point, it becomes obvious, the problem is the fix and NOT the problem! We will know, almost immediately, when the right things start being done .... from that point on, things will only get better ... that stands in stark comparison to conditions now ... Regards, JS |

You do know the city cops here start at $50k with 6 months training and a couple of jr college classes, right? Where do you live, the Ozarks? I guess I should have said, " ... at or NEAR minimum wage." Regards, JS |

NYC Cab Drivers Get Bulletproof Vest
http://www.rense.com I think there are only two taxicab companies in Jackson, (I might look in my phonebook) and only a few taxicabs too.I hardly ever see any of those taxicabs around here.One of those taxicab companies is about a mile or less than a mile West, on Highway 80, assuming it is still there? cuhulin |

The taxi drivers end up beaten, robbed and murdered. A few years ago one of the taxi drivers carried a .357 and blew away his attempted robber ... they arrested the driver, but due to public outcry, the DA dropped charges ... Still, there is just too much chit around taxis, the cost of insurance, etc. for anyone to want to make it a business ... if your car breaks down, better hope its still light out and the busses are still running!

Looking in my phonebook, I see, A-Taxi & Courier, Citi-Cab Co, Deluxe Cab Co, Jackson Taxi, Veterans Cab Co, and Yellow Cab Co. I reckon they all hang out at the Airport and Train Station/Bus Station.At least one of the Hotels has a free shuttle bus service back and forth to and from the Airport, I think.No bulletproof vest though. cuhulin, Taxicabs R US |

Cabs should require plastic (debit or credit). |

Cabs should require plastic (debit or credit). In this day and age, with the interest and criminal fees, charges, fines on credit cards, everyone is cutting them up and attempting to crawl out from under thousands of dollars of debit ... I think that would pretty well limit the number of taxis which could make a go of it ... in NYC that just might work ... still, I think a big portion of their business probably comes from people who have lost all their credit cards ... I know a lot of credit checks I am running on potential renters/lessees are coming back showing that trend ... Regards, JS |

I can't think of a single instance of government overreach that even comes close. Yes, the fine Republican Governor Snyder of Michigan that Lare helped vote into office turned out to be a closet DICTATOR, throwing out of office the duly and freely elected city officials of Benton Harbor, going against the *core values* of this country. The only "justice" that may come out of this is when Snyder starts taxing Lare's pension (assuming Lare gets one) and Ryan guts Medicaid, Medicare and Social Security that Lare may be on. On 4/21/2011 6:55 PM, dxAce wrote: As far as I know there will be no gutting of Social Security as I know it and am currently collecting. However, as I calculated a few weeks ago, I could continue to draw my current benefit out of savings for 198 months and that doesn't even include what I receive from my two pensions. Well, here's hoping Snyder doesn't tax both your pensions like he is trying his damnedest to do. My standard advice to all: Go to work and save and invest your money. If necessary get two jobs. Bottom line, save as best as you can, and do your best to avoid living paycheck to paycheck. Bravo! EXCELLENT advice (not sure about the two jobs, though...a sad commentary on life today). However, please don't lose sight of the main topic of this thread; i.e. Snyder the dictator. If so, then there have been other take-overs by other Michigan Governors (Democrat and Republican), especially with the Detroit school system. On 4/21/2011 7:54 PM, dxAce wrote: Bottom line is that others have to jump in to save things when the clown 'tards run amok. Yes, we just differ on how they should "jump in". I favor the criminal justice system or the recall process, as appropriate. You favor, literally, a dictator. Your attitude makes it a little bit clearer how dictators get in power, by people looking for quick answers. Unfortunately, IMHO your 'solution', in this country, goes against the core values and very foundation of our country.

No one even brought up Obama in this thread. If you recall, the ENTIRE topic was about *Snyder's* dictatorial actions in Benton Harbor. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with Obama. P.S. Interesting...you came very close to having a reasonable debate...and then fell back into your old name-calling habit. It's Friday. Getting an early start on your weekend "celebrations"? As always, please do not mix alcohol with your pain meds. |

Furthermore, in many big city metropolitan areas, they are LAYING OFF police and fire, to say nothing of closing libraries, reducing city services and reducing city staffs, either by layoffs or attrition. Please try and take a wider view, rather than your local "here". From every one of your over-abundance of posts here, it is clear that you think you are a legend in your own mind, a "know-it-all", even though it's abundantly clear that you don't. Regards, JfK |

Regards, JfK Well, thanks for that! However, this is a NG. I do it for fun. My posts of spur of the minute, off the top of my head, express real thoughts and beliefs and facts and truths as I realize them to be. I don't spend much time on them as they are just a "hobby." If it appears I put that much effort into them, great! But, even a letter to the editor, or an email/letter to my congressman/senator -- state or federal, gets much more thought! I don't belittle nor minimize the unemployment problem(s.) Unemployment it at 18%+, admitted (probably notable higher in reality.) But, it mainly affects older workers, less educated workers, etc. I am semi-retired and only have minimal duties in my own business ... I am working towards full retirement, but have to shut myself down in an orderly manner for best tax effects and the effects of other assuming the business assets ... so, I probably am not as sharp on all this and the new changes happening as those having a more active role ...
