Gov. Kasich has high praise for area in State of the State

valleyred, what a sycophant for the republican party you are. sad, so sad to see that blind admiration for a man who is a complete and utter idiot.

chevy cruze, baby. what a lame, lame speaker. i hear he also has "a hot wife".

skolnick's appraisal of Kasich's state of the state sounds much more realistic than this "editorial" from whoever is at the helm here.

Kasich has not done a damned thing for Ohio, but plunder our collectively owned treasures. soon we'll lose our turnpike to one of his crony friends, who he'll sell or lease it to for a song, so they can profit, while the state loses even more money.

and people like valleyred cheerfully look on, goggle-eyed, smiling as Kasich and his friends take money right out of their pockets.

YSU enrollment || Figures show decline of 3.8%

@HaydenThomas The unions already gave back the bonuses that only the staff union received when enrollment went up. They gave it back in concessions during negotiations for the next three years contract. I really wish people would know what they're talking about before they post like a know-it-all. And by the way, it was only staff that got those bonuses, not faculty. But faculty is giving back too.

On top of that, has anyone considered that YSU's enrollment decreased this year because they cut off the enrollment period several weeks earlier than usual, and there is always a rush of last-minute decision makers every year who sign up at the last minute? Guess where they went? Kent Trumbull and Eastern Gateway, who remained open to enrollment up until the first day of classes.

So many people on the Vindy threads are misinformed morons. Probably because they read the Vindy.

‘Did he just call me a drunk?’

For a man who just gave his employees raises in times of recession, Gains isn't sober. This does not mean "not drunk". It means his thinking is immoderate--go back to high school for vocabulary tests, suckers.

‘Did he just call me a drunk?’

The question of whether Jay would have called Gaines "Gay" does not work in this argument as that word has only two meanings: homosexual or happy. In the the context of the speech, Macejko said that HE would be sober. If Macejko had say HE would be gay, then I would actually interpret this to mean the definition of happy and joyful while he is at work (which is what he was talking about). So the question of "gay" actually doesn't win you any arguments here, Johnyoung (really? so nice that you think you know the heart of the person who first had a stake in the city--self-aggrandizing much?)

I don't know either of these candidates. I'm a reader who simply thinks DeSouza is a mud slinger, trouble maker, and that his "opinions" are lower than slime. He makes me want to clean my house, launder my clothes, and shower in extreme heat whenever I encounter his "thoughts" if that is what they should be called.

‘Did he just call me a drunk?’

I was just about to point out, after reading more of Bertram's tripe, that "sober" is an often used word to mean serious and honest and earnest, and that Bertram (and seemingly other semi-illiterate politicians) have only stored the one meaning (not drunk) in their vocabularies. Duh duh duh, as usual.

I love that someone like Maillis comes on here under their own name and is attacked for saying the things they had to say under an anonymous name, but in fact it was their real last name, and work with Jay and Paul. Ha! Goes to show the seedy nature of those who immediately used the argument of anonymity against Maillis are the true cowards, and probably also most likely to spread lies as truth.

Like Bertram, and his befuddled misconceptions of what "sober" means.

ODNR still unsure of D&L well’s tie to Valley earthquakes

The state government officials at the ODNR and the Oil and Gas companies are working hand in hand. They'll tear this town up and when they're done with it, they'll leave, laughing with their fists full of dollars, while the citizens of the valley suffer an even greater loss since the steel industry raped the place.

Wake up, people. Industry is truly not your friend. They are only their own friend. Me, me, me. My pocket, more money. To heck with anyone I step on to get it.

Chamber plans leadership academy

"The nine-week series is geared toward helping people become effective government leaders and giving class participants a broad perspective of how local government operations should be conducted."

Really? And why is a business chamber the entity that SHOULD be teaching government how government SHOULD be conducted?

This is the worst chamber of commerce ever.

Hagan seeks hearings on fracking

Sources, Jessiedavid. Sources. Otherwise, you're just another Joe on a board hiding under a name, claiming facts without citing where you get the information, and who conducted the research.

Seems like you found your info from J Bart Gordon's lounge, and just copied and pasted.

His site doesn't seem like anything but another wordpress blog that Joe Blow can set up and say whatever they want without any vetting by experts.

That tells me the information he presents isn't necessarily contextualized, and that there may in fact be much much more information that he's NOT presenting either.

This is why there's a difference between true research and people who are blowhards.

Federal report: Arctic much worse than in 2006

Who cares? Flood the world and let humanity die. Someone will probably live and make a lot of profit off of it, right?
