THE ABOVE PHOTO SHOWS THE “ACCIDENT” SCENE ON RT 10 IN CHESHIRE, CT NEAR THE TIMBERLINE STORE. THE TWO SQUARES IN THE CENTER OF THE PHOTO ARE POLICE MARKINGS SHOWING WHERE THE LOCAL RESIDENT’S CAR WAS SITUATED. YOU SEE “LF(LEFT FRONT) SQUARE AND “RF” (RIGHT FRONT) SQUARE. YOU CAN ALSO SEE WHERE THE REAR TIRES WERE.
THE SQUARE OFF TO THE UPPER LEFT OF THE PHOTO IS WHERE THE PEDESTRIAN “FELL”
TO MAKE MATTERS EVEN WORSE, THE LOCAL RESIDENT SAID THE CHESHIRE PD OFFICER ASKED HIM IF HE “MOVED THE BODY.”
THE LOCAL RESIDENT RECEIVED A TICKET FOR “FAILURE TO YIELD TO A PEDESTRIAN.”
HANDING OUT TICKETS AND DON’T KNOW THE LAW-OUTRAGEOUS. THE STATUTE SAYS THE PEDESTRIAN CAN ALSO RECEIVE AN INFRACTION. THIS IS THE EQUIVALENT OF JAYWALKING. YOU JUST CAN’T CROSS THE STREETS ANYWHERE-YOU CAN BUT IT WILL BE YOUR FAULT IF NOT IN A DESIGNATED CROSSWALK.
THE POLICE KNOW THE LAW-THEY WANT TO BE VINDICTIVE.
CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS? YES, WE CAN BECAUSE YOU SEE, THE “OUTCOME” WAS NOT TO THEIR LIKING, AND YOU KNOW THIS IS THE SAME PERSON SUING THEM OVER HIS MOTHER’S DEATH. TALK ABOUT VINDICTIVE. OH, I KNOW THIS PERSON IS SAD OVER THE PEDESTRIAN FALLING, BUT THE LOCAL RESIDENT’S CAR WAS NO WHERE NEAR THE PEDESTRIAN. THIS WAS AN UNMARKED CROSSWALK AND AS THE STATUTE STATES, THE PEDESTRIAN MUST YIELD. I THINK WHAT HAPPENED IS THAT THE PEDESTRIAN SAW THE CAR, PANICKED, MOVED OVER TO THE RIGHT, LOST HIS OR HER BALANCE AND FELL. (IT WAS AN ELDERLY PERSON).
AGAIN, THE POLICE DEPARTMENT WHICH HAS NO RAPORE WITH ANY ONE IN THEIR COMMUNITY SHOWED UP ON SCENE AND BEGAN TO TRY TO EMBELLISH WHAT HAPPENED. REALLY REALLY SAD AND SCARY. THEY HAVE CAMERAS, WELL, SO DO I AND OTHERS.
OMG-THIS IS AN OUTRAGE-ASKING SOMEONE IF THEY MOVED THE BODY. PAR FOR THE COURSE. THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU HAVE TOO BIG OF A POLICE DEPARTMENT WITH VERY LITTLE TO DO. EVERYTIME SOMETHING HAPPENS THEY RUN WITH THEIR MOUTHS OPEN WAITING TO GET YOU IN TROUBLE. I THOUGHT A POLICE DEPARTMENT WAS SUPPOSED TO PROTECT, SERVE AND HELP PEOPLE? I GUESS NOT ANYMORE. MO ‘MONEY!!

ATTN: HAWAII 5-0 AND THE PERSON WHO RECEIVED THE FAILURE TO YIELD TO A PEDESTRIAN ON SATURDAY, NOV. 19.
A history and explanation of Connecticut’s law regarding a pedestrian’s right of way in crosswalks.
SUMMARY
Since 1929, pedestrians have had the right of way in crosswalks. If a pedestrian is at the curb of or in a crosswalk all vehicles must slow down or stop to allow him to reach either the opposite side of the street or a “safety zone. “
If a pedestrian is not in a marked or unmarked crosswalk, then he must yield to all other traffic. The law places some restrictions on pedestrians using crosswalks. For example, they are required to yield the right of way to emergency vehicles. Pedestrians who violate crosswalk laws face a fine of between $ 35 and $ 50. Drivers who violate the crosswalk law face fines set by the Superior Court judges of between $ 35 and $ 90.
THE PEDESTRIAN WAS NOT IN A MARKED OR UNMARKED CROSSWALK based on what I saw at the scene and the photos I took. Well I guess another lawsuit is on the horizon. THIS IS THE SAME AS JAYWALKING. IF I WAS CROSSING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET WHICH I ALWAYS DO-THAT IS THE B-PORT WAY-AND A CAR HITS ME- IT IS MY FAULT AND I AM SUBJECT TO AN INFRACTION. THE CURB IS THE GRAY AREA TO THE RIGHT IN THE PHOTO. I WAS STANDING WHERE THE CAR WOULD BE TO ENTER THE INTERSECTION.
YOU CAN SEE ABOVE-THE MARKING THE POLICE PUT WHERE THE PEDESTRIAN WAS-SHOWS HE OR SHE WAS OUTSIDE THE UNMARKED CROSSWALK. IN FACT, THE WHITE LINE IS THE MIDDLE OF RT 10. EVEN IF THE PERSON FELL AND WAS IN THE UNMARKED CROSSWALK-HE OR SHE WOULD NOT BE IN THIS POSITION (WHERE THE SQUARE IS). THE PERSON PROBABLY FELL FORWARD OR BACKWARD FROM WHERE HE OR SHE WAS STANDING IN THE FIRST PLACE.
NOV. 18, 2011 – I was just informed that the Town of Cheshire CT has hired the law firm of Howd and Ludorf LLC in response to the local resident’s lawsuit-Suffredini v Cruess et al. The Town has until Nov. 28 to file their intentions.
I DID SPEAK WITH CL&P AGAIN ABOUT THIS ELECTRIC FIASCO. ALL YOU GET IS EXCUSES FROM THEM. “OH PEOPLE HAVE TO TRIM THEIR TREES NEAR THE ELECTRIC LINES” WHAT? HOW IS A RESIDENT SUPPOSED TO TRIM A TREE NEAR AN ELECTRIC WIRE WITHOUT GETTING ELECTROCUTED? CAN YOU TELL ME?
THIS IS THE JOB OF CL&P! I DO AGREE WITH CL&P THAT THERE SHOULD BE NO TREES WITHIN A 10 FOOT AREA WHICH IN MOST TOWNS IS THE RIGHT OF WAY. NOTHING CAN BE PLANTED IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD IN CHESHIRE CT NEAR THE 10 FOOT RIGHT OF WAY SO START ENFORCING THIS BY PASSING AN ORDINANCE IN EACH CITY AND TOWN. AS FOR THE TREES ALREADY GROWN AND NEAR THE POWER LINES-THEY EITHER NEED TO BE CUT BACK SEVERELY BY CL&P OR THEY NEED TO BE CUT DOWN. CL&P BLAMES DPUC (DEPT. OF PUBLIC UTILITY CONTROL) FOR PUTTING TOO MANY RESTRAINTS ON THEM AS FAR AS TREE TRIMMING IS CONCERNED. ANOTHER EXCUSE. DPUC REGULATES THE UTILITY IT DOESN’T TELL THEM NOT TO KEEP THEIR INFRASTRUCTURE CLEAN.
I DID SPEAK WITH A GOVERNING OFFICIAL IN A LOCAL CT TOWN-BOY IS HE UPSET AND I CAN’T BLAME HIM. “WHAT IS THIS SHIT”!!! GOD I NEVER HEARD THIS PERSON SWEAR-SO YOU KNOW THIS PERSON IS REALLY UPSET OVER THIS POWER OUTTAGE. I TOLD YOU THAT A CL&P REPRESENTATIVE SEVERAL MONTHS AGO SAID THAT CHESHIRE NEEDS A SUBSTATION IN THE NORTH END OF TOWN BUT THAT THE TOWN WON’T ALLOW IT. WELL, THIS IS NOT TRUE APPARENTLY. A CERTAIN GOVERNING OFFICIAL SAID CHESHIRE IS NOT AWARE OF THIS.
SEE WHAT I MEAN-CL&P LIES. WELL WE WILL SEE WHAT WILL HAPPEN WHEN WE SHOVE SEVERAL HUNDRED THOUSAND SIGNATURES IN THEIR FACE. THEN, FINALLY WE WILL GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THINGS.
CL&P DOES NOT GENERATE THEIR OWN POWER-THEY PURCHASE IT. THEY ALSO HAVE MADE STATEMENTS IN THE PAST THAT THEIR LINES AND POLES HAVE “DEPRECIATED”
WELL, IF THAT IS THE CASE, THEN GIVE THEM OVER TO US. THE BOTTOM LINE-IT IS GETTING TOO COSTLY FOR CL&P TO PROVIDE POWER TO YOU AND I. THEY HAVE A CERTAIN CORPORATE “BOTTOM LINE” AND THIS IS GETTING HARDER AND HARDER TO REACH. I AM TIRED OF HEARING IF WE WANT BETTER SERVICE-RATES WILL HAVE TO BE RAISED.
IS THIS WHY WALLINGFORD ELECTRIC DIVISION IS LOWERING THEIR RATES BY 3.2% CL&p-START BY NOT PAYING YOUR COO MILLIONS OF DOLLARS. CL&P HAS GROWN TOO BIG. THEY CAN’T HANDLE IT ANYMORE. THIS IS WHY WE NEED TO START OUT SMALL, AS IS DONE IN GILFORD NEW HAMPSHIRE WITH OUR GUNSTOCK VILLAGE WATER DISTRICT. WE HAVE 750 CUSTOMERS. THEY CAN HANDLE A PIPE BURST OR ANY OTHER EMERGENCY QUITE QUICKLY.
NOW I WAS LOOKING AT A VIDEO OF LARGO (FLA). CENTRAL PARK WHICH IS ACROSS THE STREET FROM MY CONDO. THIS PARK IS 70 ACRES AND HAS A BIKE PATH AND A NATURE PATH. WHILE WATCHING THE VIDEO, ONE OF THE SCENES ACTUALLY SHOWS THE POWER LINES NEAR MY CONDO. I AM GOING TO RUN THE VIDEO-YOU NEED TO PAUSE IT AT A MINUTE AND 28 SECONDS-AND YOU CAN SEE THE POWER LINES. THEY ARE ON STEEL POLES-AND HAVE NOTHING NEAR THEM AT ALL-NO TREES-NOTHING. I HOPE CL&P PAYS ATTENTION AND NOTICES THIS. THEY NEED TO START NOW FIXING THE INFRASTRUTURE INSTEAD OF MAKING EXCUSES AND BLAMING EVERYONE ELSE FOR THEIR PROBLEMS.
“OH IT WOULD TAKE 10 YEARS TO PUT ALL OF CT’S LINES UNDERGROUND.” FINE-THEN START NOW-THEY SHOULD HAVE STARTED 30 YEARS AGO, WHEN DEVELOPMENTS SUCH AS MINE IN CHESHIRE CT- HAD THE LINES PUT UNDERGROUND. WE WOULD PROBABLY BE IN A LOT BETTER SHAPE BY THIS TIME. SURE IT WOULD BE COSTLY, BUT HOW COSTLY IS IT GETTING TO KEEP CALLING ALL OF THESE OUT OF STATE POWER COMPANIES IN TIME AFTER TIME TO FIX AN OBSOLETE SYSTEM?
VIDEO OF LARGO (FLA.) CENTRAL PARK ACROSS FROM MY CONDO. PAUSE AT 1:28 AND YOU WILL SEE THE POWER LINES. NOTICE WHAT YOU DON’T SEE. PAY ATTENTION CL&P AND STOP MAKING EXCUSES.
If you go to Florida a lot-you will notice that animals are not afraid of people there. That is probably because they see us all year round- as is the case with this bird- the videographer is able to walk right by-and the bird stays put.
HERE IS WHAT I MEAN ABOUT ANIMALS IN FLORIDA. THIS EGRET HAS BEEN HANGING AROUND THE CONDO AREA FOR YEARS. WHEN I CAME OUT TO SEE IT-IT WAS RIGHT BY MY DOOR. IT MOVED OVER A BIT BUT WAS NOT SCARED OF ME OR ANYONE ELSE FOR THAT MATTER-IS LOOKING FOR A FOOD HANDOUT. (BTW-MY PIMP CHRYSLER 300 IS IN THE BACKGROUND -THE BLACK CAR). MY NEIGHBOR HAS A RED MUSTANG CONVERTIBLE.
MORE ON THIS CHOLESTEROL MYTH: “HIGH CHOLESTEROL IS GOOD FOR YOU!
YES-BELIEVE IT OR NOT-IT PROTECTS YOU FROM ALLERGIES AND DISEASES. THINK ABOUT IT-MY GRANDPARENTS ATE MEAT AND FAT ALL THE TIME. THEY LIVED INTO THEIR LATE 80′S AND 90′S. BUT, THEY WALKED AND DID PHYSICAL ACTIVITY. IT ISN’T YOUR DIET-IT IS YOUR LACK OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY THAT IS CAUSING HEART ATTACKS. MUSCLE DOESN’T WORK HARD-IT GETS SOFT AND FLABBY. LOOK UNDER YOUR ARMS-ARE YOU JIGGLING? ITS NOT FROM HIGH CHOLESTEROL. IT IS FROM SITTING ON YOUR ASS ALL DAY!
TAKING ALL THE WASTE OF TIME CALCIUM SUPPLEMENTS WOMEN? DROP IT. AND PICK UP FREE WEIGHTS. WORK THEM FOR ONE HALF HOUR THREE TIMES A WEEK. RESULT: PERFECT CALCIUM SCORE IS 10-MINE IS 9.4 AND I AM 55 YEARS OLD! WHY-I LIFT FREE WEIGHTS.
CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFO ON THE HIGH CHOLESTEROL MYTH.
ATTENTION-ANOTHER LOSER-JEFF BUTLER RESIGNS FROM CONSTANTLY LOSING POWER. GOOD! ROT IN HELL YOU BASTARD. WE ARE STILL GATHERING SIGNATURES. WILL HOPEFULLY BE IN CHESHIRE CT THIS WEEKEND OR NEXT. A FRIEND TOLD ME HE HAD RUN INTO SOME ELECTRIC CREWS ALSO FROM DOWN SOUTH. THEY SAID THE SYSTEM HERE IS SO ANTIQUATED THEY COULD NOT FIGURE OUT HOW TO RESTORE THE POWER. THEY HAD TO ASK CL&P. EMBARASSING!!
CONSTANTLY LOSING POWER IS THE LAUGHING STOCK OF THE ENTIRE UNITED STATES AND CANADA! I THINK WE ARE STILL IN THE 1800′s. LOOK AT PHOTOS OF POWER LINES FROM BACK THEN AND LOOK AT THEM NOW-THEY LOOK THE SAME-STRUNG ACROSS THE STREETS-THAT IS OLD FASHIONED! SAD. AND WHAT MAKES IT MORE OF A HUMILIATING KICK IN THE CROTCH IS THAT CL&P HAS THE HIGHEST ELECTRIC RATES IN THE UNITED STATES!!
ATTENTION: LYING ASS MONEY HUNGRY DOCTORS-
Blood cholesterol has nothing to do with atherosclerosis
One of the most surprising facts about cholesterol is that there is no relationship between the blood cholesterol level and the degree of atherosclerosis in the vessels. If a high cholesterol really did promote atherosclerosis, then people with a high cholesterol should evidently be more atherosclerotic than people with a low. But it isn´t so.
Dr. Paterson and his colleagues did not find any connection either between the degree of atherosclerosis and the blood cholesterol level; those who had had a low cholesterol were just as atherosclerotic when they died as those who had had a high cholesterol.
What is your take on cholesterol?
FOUR KEY POINTS
DIET HAS HARDLY ANY EFFECT ON YOUR CHOLESTEROL LEVEL.
THERE IS NO EVIDENCE AT ALL THAT LOWERING YOUR CHOLESTEROL LEVEL WILL LENGTHEN YOUR LIFE.
THE DRUGS THAT CAN LOWER IT OFTEN HAVE SERIOUS EFFECTS.
MOST OF US HAVE BEEN BRAINWASHED INTO THINKING THAT CHOLESTEROL IS A HARMFUL FOREIGN SUBSTANCE THAT SHOULD BE AVOIDED AT ALL COSTS. IN FACT, NOTHING COULD BE FURTHER FROM THE TRUTH.
THE TRUTH IS, YOUR BODY NEEDS CHOLESTEROL
I KNOW YOU’VE BEEN TOLD OVER AND OVER THAT HIGH CHOLESTEROL IS THE MAIN CULPRIT CAUSING HEART DISEASE. BUT A HIGH CHLOESTEROL IS NOT NECESSARIY DANGEROUS BY ITSELF, ALTHOUTH IT PROBABLY RELECTS AN UNHEALTHY CONDITION OR SOME UNDERLYING IMBALANCE. DECREASING THE CHOLESTEROL WILL DO NOTHING TO IMPROVE THE UNDERLYING PROBLEM, WHICH IS CAUSING THE INCREASED CHOLESTEROL. AND WHEN YOU LOWER THE LEVELS TOO MUCH BY TAKING CHOLESTEROL-LOWERING DRUGS, THE RESULTS CAN BE DETRIMENTAL TO YOUR HEALTH.
MANY STUDIES HAVE SHOWN THERE IS NO CORRELATION WITH HIGH CHOLESTEROL AND HEART DISEASE, AS PEOPLE WITH LOW BLOOD CHOLESTEROL DEVELOP HEART DISEASE JUST AS MUCH AS PEOPLE WITH HIGH CHOLESTEROL
A study done at the University Hospital in Toronto looked at 120 men who had previously had a heart attack. The study showed men with high cholesterol or low cholesterol were equally likely to have a second heart attack. Another Canadian study followed 5,000 men for twelve years and could not find a link between high cholesterol and heart attack.
A study called the Honolulu Heart Program was published in 2001. It looked at more than 8,000 individuals and made this statement: “Long-term persistence of low cholesterol concentration actually increases the risk of death. Thus, the earlier the patients start to have lower cholesterol concentrations, the greater the risk of death.”
Of course, cholesterol levels shouldn’t be ignored entirely. It’s important to have an accurate picture of your overall health, and very high cholesterol may be an indicator of other risk factors. But simply lowering your cholesterol may not prevent the onset of heart disease. By taking some of the heat off cholesterol, people can truly take charge of their health by minimizing other risk factors such as stress, obesity and inactivity.
You know, the doctors and pharmaceutical companies bamboozled and intimidated my parents World War 2 generation into believing that these drugs solve all problems: that FAT is BAD-OK LOOK, ANYTHING IN EXCESS IS BAD-YOU CAN BE POISONED FROM EATING TOO MANY CARROTS OR DIE FROM DRINKING TOO MUCH WATER FOR GOD’S SAKE.
It is really sad-how many people over the age of 70 do you know NOT NOT taking ANY SORT OF MEDS? PROBABLY NONE! AT LEAST IN THE U.S. No wonder they don’t want universal health care-the Gov’t will be scrutinizing and putting a lid on these doctor and pharmaceuticals big time profits! That is why.
Oh, have a heart problem-take Coumadin. COUMADIN IS RAT POISON!
Would you give your elderly mom and dad D-CON? Well, their doctors are.
FROM THE “STRAIGHT DOPE”
Coumadin, (wayfarin) which is used as a blood thinner is also effective in poisoning rats (by causing them to bleed to death internally).
YOU HAVE A HEART PROBLEM-THINGS AREN’T WORKING RIGHT? DUH? YOU ARE EIGHTY FUCKING YEARS OLD THAT IS WHY? DID THIS DAWN ON YOU? YOUR BODY IS BREAKING DOWN-THIS IS NORMAL!!
This is the only country in the civilized world that medicates its elderly. WHY? BIG TIME PROFITS! Then these people are afraid to fall or cut themselves because they are on blood thinners. Your ticker is ticking out because UM -YOU ARE OLD!
NOV. 16, 2011: I did speak with a representative of Wallingford Electric Division. Basically, any city or town that wanted to “do away” with Connecticut Light & Power would have to buy out Northeast Utilities. It sounds daunting but several cities and towns in North Carolina have their own public energy consortium.
To me, this would have to be done a little at a time. We couldn’t have the entire CL&P service area in CT ditching CL&P because it would be WAY TOO EXPENSIVE and you know they would fight it tooth and nail. I believe we have to do it the way we did in New Hampshire in Gunstock Acres in Gilford. I live in Gunstock Acres which is part of Gilford BUT we have our OWN WATER DISTRICT.
We have several artesian wells we draw the water off of in our district. We are charged a flat rate (there are NO meters). It is $300 a year. There is very little lawn watering or car washing. The District asks everyone to conserve as much as possible so we do. We receive a water quality report EVERY YEAR from the district. The Manager is Wade Crawshaw.
So that is a start-whether it is with a water district serving several hundred people or a small electric district, this is the way to begin. Taking SMALL steps. Other communities across the nation have done it-it CAN be done here.
When I built the home in New Hampshire, Public Service of New Hampshire which is a subsidiary of Northeast Utilities, would not bring the pole or lines because it is a rural area. WE PAID FOR THE POLE AND LINES (AND OUR LINES ARE UNDERGROUND-THEY GO UNDER THE DRIVEWAY AND UP 900 FEET TO THE HOUSE.
In the 12 years I have had the home, we lost power ONCE for something like an hour. In fact, during this October snowstorm where over 18 inches of snow fell WE DID NOT LOSE POWER AT ALL!
Why, because we are responsible, along with about 200 other residents of Gunstock Acres for keeping our pole and lines in good condition. We meet three times a year, with the other residents and make sure everything is in order-including tree trimming. We tried to put as much of the system underground as possible. We can choose to buy power from NU or HYDRO QUEBEC or whomever and NU knows this. The poles and lines and tree trimming are ongoing in our area. See the difference?
When people not corporations are in charge, you see a big difference. Look at our food supply. Years ago, when the family farmer was in charge of supplying food, and not big food corporations, you hardly ever heard of food poisoning and E-coli. Now it is rampant.
We are continuing to get the signatures. We will be in your area soon. Please sign this petition to send a message to corporate greed CL&P.
Also, I did speak to some power company employees from the south who came to CT to help restore power-they said NU’s power structure is POOR-IN BAD SHAPE-THE POLES ARE OLD-THEY NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE TREES NEED TO BE TRIMMED. THEY TOLD ME IT WOULD JUST BE A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE THIS HAPPENS AGAIN (AND IT WILL).
Gunstock Acres Village Water District
LOOK OUT YOUR WINDOW (IN CT) AND NOW LOOK OUT THIS WINDOW
I AM HEARING REPORTS THAT PEOPLE ARE CONTINUING TO GET SIGNATURES TO ELIMINATE CL&P. MORE ON THAT LATER-AND ON THE RECOUNT BETWEEN CHESHIRE CT TOWN COUNCIL CANDIDATES STEVE CARROLL AND PETER TALBOT, WHICH RESULTED IN MR. TALBOT GARNISHING FOUR MORE VOTES, APPARENTLY FROM THAT TELEPHONE VOTE. THIS WHOLE THING SOUNDS SKETCHY TO ME. I WILL BE FINDING OUT HOW THIS VOTING BY TELEPHONE WORKS. I FIND IT ODD THAT ONE CANDIDATE GOT ALL OF THE FOUR TELEPHONE VOTES AND THE OTHER CANDIDATE DID NOT GET A ONE. COULD HAPPEN, BUT STILL SEEMS STRANGE.
I AM UPSET ALSO BECAUSE OUR CELLAR RUG SMELLS LIKE SOMEONE DIED, THAT IS BECAUSE WATER FROM OUR HOT WATER TANK LEAKED ALL OVER IT. WE HAD A DEODORIZER PUT ON AND WET-DRY VAC. BUT IT STILL STINKS. I PUT IN A CLAIM WITH CONSTANTLY LOSING POWER. WE WILL SEE WHAT HAPPENS. I WILL KEEP YOU POSTED. TIRED FROM TRAVELING. MORE LATER.
MEDIA IS REPORTING CHESHIRE POLICE OFFICER THOMAS WRIGHT GOT AR-ACCELERATED REHABILITATION FOR HIS ALLEGED DOG THEFT AND INTERFERING WITH ANIMAL CONTROL OFFICER CHARGES.
BUT YOU NEVER TAKE AR UNLESS YOU ARE FAIRLY CERTAIN YOU WILL BE CONVICTED AND WILL BE SERVING TIME (AT LEAST A YEAR, NOT PROBATION), TIME IN JAIL. AND SOME PERSON COMMENTED SHE DID NOT THINK THERE WAS BAD INTENT. OK, I HOPE YOU LOSE YOUR PURSE, I WILL JUST TAKE IT AND THE MONEY INSIDE. I WON’T BOTHER TRYING TO FIND WHO THE PERSON IS-BY GOING TO THE PD OR PLACING A SMALL AD. I WILL JUST TAKE THE PURSE AND MONEY BECAUSE I WAS PROTECTING YOUR PURSE. WHAT A FUCKING IDIOT. GET IT THROUGH YOUR THICK STUPID SKULL-THAT DOG HAD A CHIP-IT BELONGED TO SOMEONE FOR SURE OR THEY WOULD NOT HAVE BOTHERED GOING TO THAT EXPENSE. BELIEVE ME, IF THIS WAS A MINORITY OR NON POLICE OFFICER-THIS LADY WOULD DEFINITELY HAVE A DIFFERENT OPINION.
AND WHILE YOU ARE AT IT OFFICER WRIGHT-READ UP ON THE FOURTH AMENDMENT-(LIKE ITS ILLEGAL TO POKE YOUR HEAD INSIDE A CAR TO SEE IF THE PERSONS HEADLIGHTS ARE ON) AFTER YOU PULLED THEM OVER. YEAH. THANK GOD THIS PD HAS CAMERAS NOW OR THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN ANOTHER LAWSUIT.
OH-A READER JUST TOLD ME-FRIDAY NIGHT FIGHTS-ON ESPN LIVE FROM 500 HIGHLAND AVENUE-10 p.m. EST THIS FRIDAY, NOV 11. BE SURE TO TUNE IN.
OK I DID MANAGE TO TAKE A PHOTO OF SOME OF THE POWER LINES HERE IN FLORIDA. I ONLY HAVE MY CRUMMY CELL PHONE CAMERA SO I CAN’T ZOOM IN. THIS SHOWS THE POWER LINE POLES WAY UP IN THE AIR-NO TREES NEAR THEM. I EVEN OBSERVED THIS ON THE SIDE STREETS. THERE ARE TREES BUT THEY ARE CUT BENEATH THE WIRES. WE NEED TO HAVE NO TREES IN THE 10 FOOT RIGHT OF WAY NEAR THE POWER LINES THAT GO ABOVE THE POWER LINES SO WHEN THEY FALL-THEY DON’T IMPACT THE POWER LINES.
ALSO, I KNOW A POWER SUB-STATION IS NEEDED IN THE NORTH END OF CHESHIRE CT. THAT NEEDS TO BE CONSTRUCTED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
NEWS FEEDS IS REPORTING PEOPLE IN WINDSOR, AND A FEW OTHER TOWNS IN NORTHERN CT ARE WITHOUT POWER AGAIN. SEE WHAT I MEAN. NO DIESEL BACK UP UNITS, NOTHING. CL&P HAS GOT TO GO. AND APPARENTLY 10,000 PEOPLE IN CT ARE STILL WITHOUT POWER. NEGLIGENT!
CL&P WANTS YOU TO PAY MORE FOR BETTER SERVICE-THAT IS THE BOTTOM LINE WITH THEM. THEY ARE HOPING YOU GIVE IN-NO WE ARE GETTING RID OF THEM NOT GIVING INTO THEIR EXTORTION. WALLINGFORD CT ELECTRIC DIVISION HAD A 3.2% DECREASE IN THEIR POWER COST ADJUSTMENT RATES OK? AND THEY SUPPLY EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE. WHAT A LOAD OF CRAP.
ALSO, I NOTICED THE POLES ARE ON ONE SIDE OF THE STREET- EVEN ON THE SIDE STREETS. THIS IS WHAT WE WILL BE PUSHING FOR WHEN WE START UED (UNIFIED ELECTRIC DIVISION). HOPEFULLY WE WILL BE ABLE TO MEET WITH OFFICIALS FROM SURROUNDING TOWNS AND SEE IF THEY ARE INTERESTED. I ALSO HOPE TO BE GETTING SOME GUIDANCE FROM GEORGE ADAIR AND RICK HENDERSHOT FROM WALLINGFORD CT ELECTRIC DIVISION (WED). IT IS A BIG ENDEAVOR BUT I THINK ONE THAT IS WORTH SPENDING TIME AND EFFORT ON. LET’S FACE IT, WE SPEND TIME AND EFFORT ON A LOT LESS IMPORTANT THINGS IN LIFE.
POWER LINES ON WEST BAY DRIVE, LARGO FLORIDA
NOV. 10, 2011-I have just received word that nearly 2,500 signatures have already been gathered in our attempt to eliminate CL&P and form our own UNIFIED ELECTRIC DIVISION (CHP) CONSTANTLY HAVING POWER WITH SEVERAL ADJOINING TOWNS.
Don’t relax people-because the next storm is coming and the bungholios at CONSTANTLY LOSING POWER (CL&P) will be living up to their name once again. Please sign our petition at the local supermarkets in town (Cheshire CT) over the next few weeks.
ANY POLITICIAN OR ELECTED OFFICIAL WHO GETS IN OUR WAY WILL BE DEFEATED.
I understand Talbot won the Fourth District Councilman seat in Cheshire CT. Too bad. I really liked Steve Carroll. I think the State of CT election commission should look into that vote tally. And of course D, who has Alzheimers, told me the sewer treatment plant vote was passed AND IT DIDN’T. GOD ALMIGHTY CAN THIS MAN READ CORRECTLY?
BEING IN FLORIDA MAKES ME AGAIN WONDER ABOUT CONNECTICUT. FLORIDA IS NOT IN YOUR FACE ABOUT ANYTHING: SMOKE IN THE MALLS, TALK ON THE CELL PHONES IN THE LIBRARY AND WHILE DRIVING; BUY WINE AT WAL-MART-ALL LEGAL.
IF CONNECTICUT IS THE NAG NAG NAG (NANNY STATE), FLORIDA MUST BE THE UNFIT MOTHER STATE-THEY DON’T CARE WHAT YOU DO-JUST ABOUT.
AND LARGO IS A BIG TOWN-NEARLY 100,000 PEOPLE-I SAW ONE PULLOVER LAST WEEK-I DON’T EVEN SEE THE COPS HERE-(HINT). WELL, CHESHIRE IS JUST RUINING IT FOR THEMSELVES. CHESHIRE CT DON’T EXPECT THE STATE OF CT TO PAY FOR SHIT-THEY ARE BROKE. NOW WE WILL ATTEMPT TO FIND OUT HOW TO MANAGE AROUND THE DEFEAT OF THE SEWER TREATMENT PLANT UPGRADE.
FIRST-TAKE CARE OF THE I/I (INFLOW AND INFILTRATION) AKA LEAKS IN THE SYSTEM. TOWN OFFICIALS SHOULD BE MEETING WITH STATE OFFICIALS AND TELLING THEM TO ANTE UP AND PAY FOR THIS UPGRADE OR SHUT THEM OFF IN PLAIN ENGLISH. I WOULD.
PINELLAS COUNTY FLA. FORECAST FOR THE WEEK: (A COLD SNAP ON FRIDAY-GET OUT THE TURTLENECK)
NOW RELAX WITH ME AT SAND KEY BEACH IN CLEARWATER FLORIDA.
The election is over in Cheshire CT. No real surprises. The Republicans gained control AGAIN because the Democrats just plain gave up. Too bad. But, according to media reports, there is a tie between Councilman Steve Carroll (R) and Dem challenger Peter Talbot. HOW CAN TWO CANDIDATES GET THE SAME AMOUNT OF VOTES? I REALLY HOPE CARROLL WINS. THIS SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED BY THE STATE ELECTIONS COMMISSION OR SOMETHING WAS MISCOUNTED.
I UNDERSTAND THIS SITUATION HAPPENED IN THE UNITED KINGDOM RECENTLY. TWO CANDIDATES RECEIVED THE SAME AMOUNT OF VOTES. THE OUTCOME (AFTER ANOTHER RECOUNT CONFIRMED THE NUMBERS) WAS DECIDED BY DRAWING PLAYING CARDS.
The Republicans are going to continue to win in Cheshire CT because they bring out the senior citizen vote. They scare them-they tell them Cheshire must remain the same small minded town-no commercial growth-no outsiders and by outsiders they mean minorities from Hamden, Meriden and Wallingford. This is encouraged. This is why there is so much trouble on this Police Department. Please don’t insult my intelligence. You know damn well that incident took place at that police headquarters. Real good. So now we have two hot headed police officers carrying guns and enforcing the laws they break themselves. I am hoping to find out who they were and you can damn well believe I will post their names here.
I guess Officer Wright plead not guilty to all three of his charges at his pre-trial hearing on Tuesday, Nov. 8. Isn’t it FUN going to court? Maybe now you know what it feels like TO BE ACCUSED OF SOMETHING YOU DID NOT DO OR HAVE IT BLOWN OUT OF PROPORTION. ISN’T IT FUN HAVING YOUR NAME DRAGGED THROUGH THE MUD? REMEMBER THIS WHEN YOU DEAL WITH PEOPLE OUT ON THE STREET. BECOME A BETTER PERSON FOR IT AND UNDERSTAND WHAT WE GO THROUGH WHEN WE GET TICKETS OR OTHER CHARGES.
ONLY IN CHESHIRE CT.
Mr. GRIPPO- NO ONE IS HAPPY. THEY DON’T CARE. THEY ARE DISCOURAGED FROM SPEAKING OUT. PEOPLE HAVE TOLD D AND I THEY DON’T BOTHER SPEAKING AT THE BOARD OF ED OR TOWN COUNCIL MEETING BECAUSE THEY FEEL DISCOURAGED. CHESHIRE CT WILL REMAIN A SMALL NARROW MINDED TOWN UNTIL WE CHANGE IT. AND IT WILL BE CHANGED. IT TAKES TIME BUT IT WILL HAPPEN.
As far as the Sewer Treatment Plant upgrade being defeated, don’t worry, the sneaky Town of Cheshire CT will find a way to do it anyway. They did with the pool that was defeated several times and the high school track. They don’t care what you think. They only have an election and Boards and Commissions because it is the law. They discourage public participation, they discourage other people with different ideas from running, that is why half of the ballot was empty. Well, when we finish with CL&P, we will go after the Cheshire CT Police Dept. (disbanding them) and turning this ridiculous Town Council/Town Manager form of government into a BOARD OF SELECTMAN AND AN ELECTED FIRST SELECTMAN. D WILL RUN FOR THE FIRST SELECTMAN POSITION.
SOME DEPARTMENT’S PARTY DAYS ARE NUMBERED. MARK MY WORDS.
November 8, 2o11: I did speak with a representative of the Cheshire CT Police Dept regarding this alleged fistfighting incident that allegedly took place at the station between two police officers. The representative assured me this incident never took place.
I asked what would have happened if the incident did take place-the representative assured me the parties involved would have been suspended.
BUT, WOULD THIS INCIDENT HAVE BEEN LET OUT TO THE PUBLIC? THAT IS THE QUESTION. SO, WHAT DO I BELIEVE. NO DISRESPECT BUT I DO BELIEVE IT HAPPENED. IT WILL BE DEALT WITH BUT QUIETLY THE WAY CHESHIRE CT LIKES EVERYTHING-QUIET. NO OTHER MEDIA OUTLET WILL TRY TO LOOK INTO THIS, NO ONE THAT RUNS THE TOWN WILL ASK. SO, IT WILL BE DEALT WITH AND FADE AWAY. SCARY.
AS FAR AS THE VOTING GOES, THEY ARE ALL ON THE SAME PAGE-SO IT REALLY DOESN’T MATTER WHO GETS INTO OFFICE IN CHESHIRE CT. THE BOTTOM LINE-DON’T UPSET THE ‘NICE IMAGE’ THIS TOWN HAS. DON’T QUESTION THE PRIMA DONNAS. WHAT CAN I TELL YOU-DISAPPOINTING.
A READER WANTED TO KNOW WHEN TO COME TO FLORIDA. I HAVE BEEN COMING TO FLORIDA FOR 41 YEARS. THE BEST TIME TO COME IS NOVEMBER AND DECEMBER AND FEBRUARY AND MARCH. JANUARY IS TOO COLD AND AFTER APRIL IT IS TOO HOT (UNLESS YOU LIKE REAL HOT WEATHER, THEN YOU ARE FINE).
Enjoying last few days in Florida at the convention. Wonderful weather-in the low to mid 80′s. No rain. Great. Heard it is warm in CT also. Good.
Anyway, Nov. 8 is election day. Same old same old. I expect the Cheshire CT Republicans to get back into power. I don’t think there will be a big turnout because there are no pressing issues that interest the general public-aside for the Water Treatment Plant.
I did find out that “Board of Selectmen” phone line is actually the Senior Center account in Cheshire CT. Hopefully, this will be changed so there are no more confusions. People are still gathering signatures in CT for the CL&P issue. Will keep you posted.
As far as data usage for the Cheshire CT Police Dept and other departments in town go, there should be an arrangement made with the cell phone providers for some sort of a package deal. Also, there should be a sign in sheet, so we know who is accessing the internet and what they are accessing. I know there is a block on certain websites (mine included) during town time-except the Police Department. But I can take of that. I know their IP address and can block them anytime I want. I don’t expect any radical changes in boringtown over the next few years. SAD.
Apparently the Cheshire CT police officer who ALLEGEDLY kept a dog without informing the rightful owner or trying to find the rightful owner and allegedly interfered with authorities when questioned, is back in court on Nov. 8. I wonder if the two that supposedly punched each other out are getting arrested. I WILL FIND OUT.
CONDO IN FLORIDA.
MORE LATER.
