I recently read in the Register that the U.S. government has spent more than $5 billion on projects either unfinished or abandoned in Iraq: for example, a vacant children's hospital at $165 million, a $40 million prison boarded up and a $100 million waste treatment system that doesn't work. Would anyone buy an expensive lawn tractor and leave it in the garage unused, or build an addition on to the house, then decide to board it up? What is happening when schools have to close and teachers are being laid off for lack of funding to the states, or when my granddaughter who wants to better herself and take a Connecticut Nursing Association course but suddenly funds are cut? People are losing their jobs and homes and Katrina victims are still waiting to get into a decent home.

Such plants now are called wastewater treatment facilities.

Curbing medical spending will force cuts in hospital budgets, spread nurses even thinner, and reduce the number of diagnostic machines available, causing waits for treatment. Dr. Emanuel says that the usual recommendations for cutting costs (often urged by President Obama) are window dressing: "Vague promises of savings from cutting waste, enhancing prevention and wellness, installing electronic medical records, and improving quality are merely 'lipstick' cost control, more for show and public relations than for true change." On May 11, the American Medical Association, pharmaceutical industry, insurance lobbyists, and other interest groups jointly announced that they would support the Administration's efforts to rein in health spending.
According to President David Pinsky, a wide breadth of expertise on issues related to engineering has long been one of Tighe & Bond's strengths, and has been evident in the way the firm has stayed current with changing environmental requirements. In the past dozen years alone, the firm has: * Completed a multi-phase upgrade of Holyoke's water system, including a six-mile, gravity-fed transmission main, treatment facility, storage tanks; and pumping stations; * Designed a cost-effective water-treatment plant for Chester that was selected by the American Public Works Assoc. as 1997's national public works project of the year; * Oversaw brownfleld remediation and demolition of 29 buildings on the six-acre site of the former H.B.
