We don't mean to shock anyone, but they had some great bargains at this auction in Mifflinburg, PA. Do you put up a Christmas tree for the holidays? If so, is it real or artificial? If you don't celebrate Christmas, no worries, this is still a fun story to listen to.

I've been told often that teachers get 12 weeks off for the summer. Many teachers get paid for 9-months of teaching spread out over 12 months. Most teachers work extra time over the summer.
News Blast: Quit complaining, Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-NC)! You got an 8-week paid vacation.

Justice Samuel Alito conceded that he would not vote to overturn the Obergefell v Hodges decision which legalized marriage equality across the United States. He cited "stare decisis," which means, that which has already been decided.

What are your thoughts on school board members observing classrooms to evaluate content delivery? Questions would revolve around to what extent students are engaged in their lessons.

If I win election to the local school board, I want to observe classroom instruction to watch how teachers deliver the curriculum. My point is not to critique the teachers. My goal is to witness how engaged students are, and to ask teachers what tools they need to be able to do their job better.

The Corporation for Public Broadcasting is shutting down. The CPB funds more than 1,500 public television and radio stations across the country. Trump called the CPB a "monstrosity." I offered commentary about Trump. Enjoy.

The helicopter Senator from Connecticut who inexplicably ran in Pennsylvania decided Pennsylvanians don't deserve Medicaid, SNAP, or other public assistance benefits. Way to go, Dave! You f'd up Pennsylvanians, and you do not care.
Dave McCormick just cast the deciding vote for this BS bill that raises costs of health care, food and utilities, and leaves Pennsylvanians to die.

The bill now goes to the House where PA’s GOP delegation will decide its fate. Call and let them know how you feel at 202-224-3121.

I don't post very often on my own personal page. Instead, I focus mainly on the work I do with Pennsylvania Equality Project and PEP Radio. When I do come here, I do it mainly to share major accomplishments or announcements. I anticipate having a few in the coming days.

I am running for Crawford Central School District School Board. I am excited to be on the general election ballot in November. I stand with all students in their pursuit of a quality education. I also stand firmly on the side of teachers as they work with students to deliver instruction.

I won enough votes to move forward to the general election in November to serve as a Director on the Crawford Central School Board. I firmly believe that teachers are the key to providing youth a better education and future. Together, we win.
