Daily Five: Blustery Day, Fresh Air and Our Last Heros; Volunteer Firefighters

Your five, folks! Have a great day.

 

 

1. It will be a rainy, cloudy, blustery day in our 100-acre wood.  

2. In an effort to really support and raise awareness about breast cancer how about putting your money where you heart is: shop pink. Many retailers are selling products, pink-hued in many cases, with a portion of the profits earmarked for cancer research and foundations. Just remember it’s important to ensure monies are going to research, support, and prevention. 

3. This is national fire prevention week and in the few months that I’ve been covering Montville I have seen a community anchored by a commitment to public safety through the efforts of scores of awesome volunteer firefighters and emergency personnel. Montville is one lucky town. 

4. The Fresh Air Fund, which celebrated its 136th year, is such a hugely important program for so many kids from New York City. As a former city kid myself – and a New Yorker to boot – I absolutely know the Fresh Ari Fund has changed lives: 1.7 million kids since 1877. Think about it for next summer.

5. Planning and Zoning Commission meets tonight to go over a number of agenda items including two public hearings on special permit applications; one for an 8-lot cluster subdivision.

It looks to me like another LAW that will not work if you haven't set up a retirement plan theRead More minute you got a job that's your problem.What is wrong with the younger generation is you say to them if they had a ROTH when I was working I wouldn't need an accountant to do my taxes.No law will help you save for retirement only YOU can do that.

They should bury him in pieces so as to show ALLAH he disgraced his people and religion

A great leap backward for the Patch. Most people I know say it is too hard to comment. I agree itRead More stinks.

all above, i agree. the layout of this has become rife with those dumb 'frames', cute slidingRead More (annoying) things, and those drop down menues are simply time wasting! like the old originalk Model T Ford, the site has 'improved' beyond utility, to an expression of some PhD in Info Tech's fantasy. i mentioned the same to whatziz name, paul?, but this new look must have been like a 'hammer' from Arrianne Huffington herself. most people use ad blocking software anyway, to obscure the junk they try to foist on you, they should just offer a nice consolidated page (alone) that shows local deals within range of the people who read.
