VOLUNTEER FED-UP WITH MAYOR AND COUNCIL-The City of Gloucester City is losing one of their unsung heroes because of the fishing ban at Freedom Pier enacted recently by Mayor James and City Council. Dan Reader who has volunteered his time and money over the years to fix up the Community Garden, City parks and playgrounds is calling it quits effective today.
Reader stated in an Email sent to CNBNews, \”I want to let you know that because of this situation (referring to the Freedom Pier fishing ban) I have decided after much deliberation to resign as a City volunteer as of Wednesday, August 15th. It was a very difficult decision on my part because everything is really starting to come together. I have invested 250 plus hours this year into a number of projects throughout the City. I feel that strongly about this and I could not go on tending to this City when at any time on five complaints I could again be banned from using a public space.

Is it just me or is everyone in the City of Gloucester fed up with the two \”Desperados\” that terrorize our City week after week, month after month, I am referring to Mr. Tito Diaz, Jr. and his father Mr. Tito Diaz, Sr.
These two individuals need to spend some serious time in the County Jail for being a public nuisance. They drain the city resources by having the Police lock them up or our city’s ambulance service fix them up.
They are a menace to society! Please put them in jail!
Robert J. Hagan, Jr., Gloucester City

Catholic League president Bill Donohue comments on the two Catholic vice presidential candidates:
In many respects, the Catholic community today is divided into pro-life and social justice camps. That is unfortunate, and while this division can be overstated, it remains true that most Catholic activists sit in either one camp or the other; cross-over Catholics are a rare breed.

Two conservative nonprofits, Crossroads GPS and Americans for Prosperity, have poured almost $60 million into TV ads to influence the presidential race so far, outgunning all super PACs put together, new spending estimates show.
These nonprofits, also known as 501(c)(4)s or c4s for their section of the tax code, don\’t have to disclose their donors to the public.

A series of triple typhoons has triggered torrential rain, floods and landslides in parts of the Philippines, including the capital Manila, inundating large areas of the region and killing more than 50 people. As a national society, the Philippine Red Cross is working around the clock to ensure those in affected communities are receiving emergency help they need. |
