Children should only be guided by their parents, and then only if the parents are responsible. Family and a family church is usually the best guide for a child. No teacher can be solely trusted to build a child's character, although most of them have the child's best interests at heart, sadly, not all of them care or have the morals to do so. It doesn't take a village to raise a child, it takes a trusted circle of family and friends who can detect the slightest "off" in a child and guide them into good decision making.

Yes, all of the leaves and dry duff that has been accumulating in the woods and corners of properties is getting dry, and the old leaves are actually blowing around. Don't burn till possibly next weekend when it will be raining again.

I can't believe you even wrote that in jest!! There's more going on here that theft. It goes way deeper.

I wonder how much gambling has to do with this? Who played in the games?

This has been the statement at the bottom of my posts for many years for a reason! The world will not be destroyed by those who do evil, but by those who watch them without doing anything. Albert Einstein

Many years ago, doing business "on a handshake" was an honored way of doing business because if you didn't honor that agreement, then everyone in your area knew it and you only got your respect back by hiding out in your house or by doing right by the agreement. Now, with so many strangers surrounding us, we don't even know our neighbors or what they may or may not be up to. I remember when business with Sandy Twp was like that but it is no more. Long ago, they had to start bein g more business like, and in my opinion, they have done a really good job overall because it's still rural and a LOT of people know your business. It helps you keep your nose clean! Always a good thing. "Knowing somebody" who will cover for you or do questionable favors is the beginning of the end as far as honesty is concerned.

Each entity will deal with their own specific charges individually. However, since the evidence is so mixed together, they will all have to deal with it jointly to sort it out.

Ah Ha! I have the story now. A couple of years ago, the Downtown Beautification Committee asked the garden clubs and volunteers to meet to help with flower pots and flowers downtown. The meeting was held at Luigi's next to the City Parking Lot. There were quite a few odds and ends of pots that had been purchased/donated for use for sidewalk planters. They didn't match in size, style or plantings, and the committee wanted to update the appearance of them. I did a planter class for them to show how to improve the care of them which makes it a little easier to keep them looking nicer. However, I warned them that the key was regular watering and without it, the planters would go downhill over the summer, which some did, but the ones at the corner of Long and Brady were pretty well kept up. The two biggest ones were donated by the VFW of DuBois and had donation signs in them. I have no idea who cared for them or where they went, but the BUDS Gardeners were asked last year to remove their pots from the street project because Jennifer had received a large donation from Invensys to purchase all new matching pots and plants and she would plant them, which she did. They looked very nice but I did tell the committee that they needed to not "diss" the past volunteers who had taken care of pots for years. They are a valuable commodity and you never want to lose them. The money might not last, nor might a specific volunteer, and then where would they be? Annoying a volunteer is a no-no. The Rose Alley parking lot has been maintained by DTEGC ever since the Brady Street Rebuilding project was done. I was the president at that time, worked privately with privately donations, with the city engineer to design the openings for the planting beds. My husband and I built the round concrete circle where we used to have a fountain that was destroyed by vandals. The city added the electric and a water hydrant for us. The circle is used in the winter for the Christmas display. Hubby also built the wooden gift boxes that are part of the display. The specially welded (and expensive) tree stand was built with donation funds to keep the trees from falling over repeatedly. If I remember correctly, the concrete was donated by DuBrook and the surfacing was done by a gentleman from Penfield. It took many combined hours and skills to get it all done, and it was all volunteer. The installation of the wooden fence at the rear of the property was also done by volunteers, and the large rocks beside the clothing store was from the same project. I seriously doubt any of it would be there or remain well cared for without LOTS of volunteers. You don't risk losing your volunteer base. An agreement with the city and DTEGC was signed due to liability to specifically use those flower beds, and to my knowledge it is still in effect. Eddie Tate from the Beautification Committee was to take care of the maintenance of the pots. I do not know if he still does. If Jennifer was taking plants from the beds, she was out of line. I do not know her well enough to know why she would do that. The only thing approved by the committee was the placement, planting and maintenance of the street pots, nothing else. The Rose Alley parking lot is owned and maintained by the city, commonly known as Luigi's parking lot, and the Down To Earth Garden Club maintains it.

Watch Steve's video on George Soros to find the answers to everything that has gone wrong in our society for the 10-20 years. The answer has been before our eyes all this time. The World Economic Forum is behind it all! This is another video but watch this guy is trying to make George Soros the poor beleaguered victim because he is a Holocaust survivor! I am possibly one of the most ardent supporters of the Jewish nation that you have ever met, but this guy is sheer evil. Steve might be able to post that other video again to show what he is really doing.

Yes, he has always done an excellent job wherever he has applied himself!

Read up the effect the inner core of molten lava affects our N and S poles, and how that change(which is happening in slow motion) affects areas of dry/wet/hot/cold on the earth's surface. Let them try to control THAT!!

What you sow, that shall you also reap. Nuf said!

That image was presented as fact by the newspaper, not the people. The people have always gotten along but continuing demands from DuBois over the water situation were totally unfair. That's the only serious court battle that was fought and it was initiated by DuBois.

Your comments show how little you know about Sandy Township and why they defended themselves as they did. Had they not done so, Sandy would have been paying through the nose to support DuBois.

That's so weird that it's painful!

Wouldn't matter because he's a democrat!

I'm positive that those who are giving up children will have like beliefs to hers, and that could actually give her a better chance of adopting a child.

I created a G-Mail account and already had a relatively unused AOL account into which my Verizon e-mail went before it was forwarded to my Outlook program. I have to add all of my individual e-mail addresses to each e-mail program. AOL said there is a problem that they cannot figure out so that's not working either. It all seemed to have happened when I tried to download Microsoft 365. I just want to be able to access everything from one program like I always did before. Now I have to do bits and pieces from all of them to do my work.

These are Icons that I downloaded onto my desktop for easy access. They seem to be working.

Another WORD Icon that brings up my Penn State Account. https://outlook.office365.com/mail/

Seems to be my old WORD with my files and old e-mails up to March 8. Doesn't work at all other than to show me what is currently on the screen. Seems like it is locked up. Will not Send or Receive although in the upper left hand corner the icons will bring up my calendar and e-mail addresses.

Let's see. https://www.office.com/launch/word?auth=1 About 20 documents mixed from very old to a few weeks ago 1 e-mail address No incoming e-mail None of the E-mail folders I had before

Jesus meant for His disciples to be dedicated to His work to the point of not having a relationship with ANY woman. The work was more important. It was for the sake of Jesus mission. It was not a recommendation to change their sex or appearance nor was it a commandment. In the New Testament, it is recommended for priests and religious leaders to be single in order to concentrate on their job. But if they were attracted to a marriage, then they should marry. However. it would hinder the depth to which they could apply themselves.
