The funniest quote of this article is that Judge Paul Cherry had to recuse himself. NO JOKE! Thanks to his sister. His career in most probably is done too. Mom and Dad rolling in the grave.

When a parent decides to cut off the weeny of the kid to be transgender,what is that kid going to think when he is a teenager. They lost their weeny and they cant have kids either "way" naturally, where does that leave them? Mentally destroyed.

The US District Court today announced charges  and lawsuit against a local building contractor (Tim Britton) for continually harassing female rental tenants. Their are multiple complainants with possibly more to come. This has been going on for at least 6 years.

This thread was supposed to be a SUPPORT COMMUNITY THREAD. Not POLITICAL!

Id take that bet. Its rare for it to be in one place for so many years.

Shoot. To Whitaker who is a Herm and Toni disciple.

And the "Flock" followed. You get what you vote for. Well, that's what you get when you had a huge church in TREASURE LAKE.  It has just got more "slippery". Salandra was on top of  cleaning the sewer from the beginning.  That will be missed.

I don't believe there are any for Sandy. If you are following this information about the city on here, the DuBois write-ins suggested voting for Kevin Salandra for Sandy Township Supervisor.   The other candidate for Sandy Supervisor was appointed by Cherry and Suplizio to the consolidation group - enough said.

Dont be afraid to mention his name. Rev Whitaker. MY question to the "good" Rev is why get involved? And why did you single out the Twp Manager and And Supervisor SALANDRA not to have the consolidation meetings or inform them?  I hope the mega church  "flock" doesnt follow him. That doesnt sound too godly to me.  VOTE SALANDRA.   SALANDRA is the one who has smelt what has been happening from the beginning. 

Yes, it's always good to pray to God/Holy Father.  But be careful of leaders who are really wearing sheeps skin. For personal gain.

Once again it sounds like a few bad apples stirring up. Its a Veterans club for a reason. Its not a last choice social hall to go pound drinks.  If their is NO smoking, respect the rules. Dont try to change them for selfish reasons.  My family has served in service. My father was a 65 year VFW member and a 70 year American Legion member.  Veterans and families  of any war or service deserve a place to socialize after they are finished with serving our country. If you want to smoke and power drink, go to a local Ethnicity ( Polish, Italian, Slovak)  club or Sportsman club.  If its decendants of service members shame on you.

Remember to vote SALANDRA!  He has been on top of everything.  Not a certain person , clergy, who is a friend of the Good Ole Boys Club.

Moving here, I was an unbiased observer.  I had no allegence to either.  Never intended to stay here this long.  What I saw was 2 entities that are bound as a single entity..neither able to survive without the other.  Instead of trying to cooperate, they chose to waste taxpayer money over literally $hit.  Neither party is or was the innocent victim of the other.  This entire area would be much better off if they didnt see each other as the enemy.

Dont worry.  A couple more indictments of City politicians  and the STATE will takeover.  Then we will really go backwards.

Regardless of the City nonsense that is going on, Dubois has a good thing for the community going on. 20 teams will be here visiting from around the country.. Eating, Lodging and spending money.  Go to a game, Help out for an hour or 2 in the Concession stands.   This is a big money maker for local business.  Which employs PEOPLE.  The area can not afford to lose this.  It also looks good for the City.  It will show that the people are above the politicians that run this city. 

And the weather looks good compared to the last 2 years. Dubois has the finest facilities for this in the nation of small cities.  PSU Dubois and Clearfield County Tourism will take the lead.

PS.  To the current city politicians.   Please stay away. Inevitable someone will ask what is going on.  No distractions.

Word is:

DuBois City Council is going into some kind of "Emergency" Executive Session in 10 minutes on this early Saturday morning. (9am)

I'm unaware of a time they've done this.on a Saturday.

Are they going to do the right thing for our City and terminate the services of our Solicitor and former city manager? (Cease payments too)

We are going to find out if they finally have the backbone to say enough.

Was the public given adequate notice?

And what happens if the AG does have the paperwork? It's a royal mess. It's ugly. Sides locally  have been drawn in the sand.

I keep hearing on TV JOsh Shapiro has presidential or Vice President ambitions. If it does indict  and convict most of the players, that's quite a score for Josh Shapiro to tell people.

I am sure they would pass. They ran before knowing there was this perk - which needs to end now! This makes me wonder what else the council and friends got that the taxpayers funded. And how did no one know? The names are sent to the insurance company by SOMEONE. How else do the companies and city know who is covered by the health insurance. I am sure someone in city hall knew when those names were added and when they came up for renewal each year. 

And speaking of quiet - why do we not hear on the local radio stations news reports about city council? Am I missing them somehow? 

Altoona and State College are on top of it. Im waiting  for the Pittsburgh Media to pick up the story and then its going to break real loose. Maybe even Nationally. A City Manager, mayor and the whole City Council.

Sandy Township Supervisor Kevin Salandra was one of the first to recognize the city finances were not right. During the consolidation process the last year he continued to ask hard questions that the city refused to answer.

DuBois Council then conspired to have him (and township manager Shawn Aubaugh) removed from the consolidation process by unilaterally  picking a new Transitional Committee.( Toni Cherry was chosen to be on this new Committee.)   

Mr Salandra  is on the ballot this May for reelection. Please choose wisely on who will best represent Sandy Township. 

You are right. And guess who the Chairman of the Consolidation Committee is, the infamous Treasure Lake  minister Rev Whitaker. He was following orders from Toni Cherry.  You have to ask why after a nice clergy career, now retired, why is he running against Kevin Salandra? What's in it for him? But remember,dare not question his faithful motives.

My question about the whole $270,000 is that just the retainer fee or is it for work that the law firm has already done.

 I know that a law firm that specializes in civil law charges somewhere in the $300 per hour range for the lawyers time. What does a good criminal lawyer charge per hour?

Read today's front page of the Altoona Mirror. And that doesnt include the running total of Herm's criminal  legal fees. There's your $270,000.

Plus i should add that she was asked by the council to not attend tonight.

 Sounds ironic from the one who defied 2 Grand Jury Supeonaes. So  where was their onsite legal counsel? You need to have someone their for legal clarification. But of course, they already knew this. No business could then be officially conducted. All of them need to be removed and start over. Until I see more indictments, nothing is going to change.

Even garden clubs are required to keep their books in proper order.  Ours is audited every month so at the end of the year, it's all ready to go.  Every credit or debit must have a Voucher with all receipts, checks, names and a full explanation of where the money went or came from attached. 

These regulations are part of the terrorism laws so that money can't be channeled to illegal sources. 

Ummmm........ 

Illegal Sources.  

  talking to friends tonight, did you know If you set on a Board of Directors of a corporation or public

organization or any kind of municipal  council, you are responsible  for the act of appropriately managing the funds.   If you do not act, and its proved legally, not only are you responsible as a total group, but you can be individually, PERSONALLY, sued civil for not performing your civic monetary oversight in that position.  I wonder what kind of legal advice each member of city council is receiving privately?.

That whole city council needs replaced , along with counselor and mgr....election day is coming fast , " Show them you mean business "....as one ad put it.

Or as Fedup says, continue to complain for the same government you vote  for. If it happens this time, this area is set back another generation.

VOTE SALANDRA.   HE HAS BEEN ON TOP OF THINGS SINCE HE HAS BEEN ELECTED.   Hes an accountant who knows how to budget and handle money. Who are the other candidates? Why do you think Rev Whitaker and Toni Cherry dont want him   in(along with the Twp Manager) on the Consolidation? 

Just like a big percentage of the country, Im waiting to see if the people will actually turnout and react. If not, you get the same government that you have been voting for.

Don't want to highjack this post But I just love the Hyundai palisade. However my husband has always been a Ram person.  I have owned 5 Rams now at this time in life I feel a SUV would better suit my needs.  I can assume you own a Hyundai. I guess in general I would like to know if you like it and any pros or cons. 

Yes I like it.  I use to have a Toyota Corolla. That was OK.
