6-15-11: trouble, ethics, gay marriage, potted plants, special prosecutor, and some vandals

Always check here for local news.

The mystery of the potted plant remains unsolved. Reward in the offing.

For me the key here is the term "request. You have to request a special prosecutor. Stuyvesant did not when they went after me. They did not request permission from a judge, as the supervisor clearly states here. This supervisor.

What was the basis for hiring a special prosecutor to go after me? Why? Who authorized it? The town board only?

If I could follow this, I bet I would learn something.

Photo shot contest. Winner announced tomorrow. Vote!

This powerline is a big deal.

Vandals attack the New Lebanon library.

But gay marriage has a shot. Call your STATE SENATOR's OFFICE. Tell him/her to vote yes. Here's mine. Almost there.

Hudson pride is coming.

Auction in Copake. Looks good.

As someone interested in ethics enforcement, I read this and found it interesting but a bit off. I know that putting everything online is a good step and that the excuses for hiding stuff are just that: excuses.

What's the c-word? Community.

I bank with these guys and wish them luck with the new branch. Why Albany, though?

Shakespeare anyone? More in Hudson.

"KINDERHOOK — Albany's Alexander Paley, age 25, beat out 512 runners in the OK 5k race in Kinderhook Saturday by posting a time of 15 minutes, 35 seconds, according to a release from race director Dan Curtin. Aaron Robertson, 33, placed second at 15:42 ..."
