Then there is the State of California and the Governator. Well, Governor stop trying to blame Speaker Karen Bass for the financial crisis of the state. What the speaker did was took you and your Republican friends on and refused to allow you to rape and pillage the services OUR. community so desperately needs. Our community needs foster care, our community needs assistance for the elderly, our community needs assistance for the homeless and our community needs jobs. Maybe, your community doesn't and maybe the communities of your Republican buddies don't but ours do, so stop trying to call our Democratic representatives wasteful, and foolish spenders and realize we sent them there to represent us and that is just what they have done. First off, as we all know the City of Los Angeles is b...

COLUMBUS, Ohio, July 1, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Ohio Health Care Association Executive Director Peter Van Runkle today issued the following statement regarding Ohio's two-year budget, which Governor John Kasich signed on Thursday, June 30, 2011. While we appreciate the restoration of a portion of the funding for skilled nursing care that was cut in the state budget bill, it only represented about one fifth of the total cut. The remaining cuts come out of the care of some of Ohio's most vulnerable citizens, primarily frail elderly Ohioans who have chosen skilled nursing facilities because they need a level of care their families cannot deliver at home, even with outside assistance. We are very concerned that this budget will cut quality of care, result in potentially thousands o...
Is high unemployment as certain as death and taxes? Of course not. But if we depend on the private sector to bring rates down, joblessness could join those two certainties. International experience shows that direct job creation by governments is one of the very few options that has succeeded at raising employment levels more than just marginally during a crisis. Nonetheless, unfounded optimism about the power of privately fueled growth underlies the latest round of interventions in Europe.

ELLSWORTH - , 72, died peacefully Oct. 15, 2011, in the loving care of his daughter, Victoria Minutolo; his dear companion, Suellen Speed; and the palliative care staff at Maine Coast Memorial Hospital. Bob's dry wit and wry humor will be sorely missed by his family and all who knew him. The son of Wilder Stanley and Doris Audrey (Meader) Hamblen, he was born Feb. 17, 1939, in Manset, and grew up in Northeast Harbor, where his father was a butcher and his mother a telephone operator. He had many fond memories of life on Mount Desert Island in the 1940s and 1950s when doctors still made house calls and uniformed servants came up from New York and Philadelphia with the "summer people." In those years the rivalry among the towns' high school basketball teams was an...
