Re: [UC] important question about free speech rally
Dear Melani, I'd like to wait until later to make fun of you if that is OK. I don't want to distract from or tarnish this heartfelt missive. I don't care how much the listserv pokes fun at my strong feelings. Melanie, I 'd like to be your friend. I was very moved when I saw the story of you caring for Karen during her time of need. Sometimes when you describe Penn's decades of destructive portrayals of Philadelphia, I even cheer for you. I'm like; go Mel go. You're just about to make sense and then you blow it. Sure, I think your dim and I'm very bothered by your desire to implement a plutocracy. But through all the layers of misguided thinking, I think I see the Melanie inside. When you describe your Beatles concert, I even form a fond image in my crazy head of you screaming your young heart out and tossing your bra at Ringo Starr. Look, we don't have to have similar intellectual abilities to form a strong friendship. I'm concerned about your overwhelming commitment to the UCD plutocracy, and also about your association with the likes of Tony, Brian, and Cassidy. Mel, UCD and these meanies will use you like a pawn and toss you to the curb like us trustafarians, renters, whores, and gang members as sonn as that serves the purpose of Penn. When this happens, you're going to be devastated. I think in the back of your head somewhere; you know that I'm right about this. When you need a hug and a shoulder to cry on, my arms and heart are wide open. Until then of course, I will be forced to make fun of you. I'm angry that the disingenuous UCD vision forces me to be so hard on your limited ability to understand these difficult issues. I actually hate making fun of people. I absolutely hate it when FOCP brings out a UCD survey and I'm forced to make an honest evaluation which leads to their embarrassment. However, I have a deeply rooted spiritual faith in the underlying potential goodness in human animals. Mahatma Gandhi, Che Guevara,Jesus, and Martin Luther King Jr were all human animals too. While you're on the wrong path with the wrong people, I am willing to help you when you are ready. Also don't let those people on the listserv make fun of our friendship. They can be so puerile. The list chorus sings: Glenn and Melanie sittin' in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G See how childish they are? Anyway, don't hesitate to contact me.

OK then, it wasn't you. When I was at the torture camp in Bucharest, Cat Stevens told us some Arlo and Pete stories. Apparently, Arlo raved for years about meeting some long haired New Yorker who told him he was a Canadian Mennonite.

RE: [UC] important question about free speech rallyhahahaha Cassidy, I can see why you like Tony's style so much. You know you may be able to impress upscale wolves at first, but your technique at debating becomes clear after a few rants. Sure, any jerk can pull 2 sentences out of context, start ranting that the writer actually means something completely different while hoping that no one checks the original source. Tony thinks he is clever when he relies on this cheap and simple technique and you do as well. Rant on brother. When you stop trying this Tony style idiocy, let me know This was much better Cassidy. You actually make a point and you actually catch me using a weak choice of words. Try this direct approach at debating more often: And this one: ... UCD efforts at 'law enforcement.' This effort sought to destroy the residents' ability to announce community meetings, protest wars and business improvement districts, and any grassroots organizing. What specifically has UCD done to destroy residents ability to announce community meetings? Have they shut down this listserve? Or the UC Review? or knocked down the kiosks in Clark Park? or carted away the bulletin boards in the Green Line? Shut down the Phillyblog? Here is my revised statement. UCD efforts at law enforcement sought to destroy a very valuable grassroots communication network. Not only did observation of this communication network reveal the healthy and diverse neighborhood, but also it was an extremely important communication network for the conveyance of many types of relevant neighborhood information. There are different types of communication vehicles, but for many types of information and to reach the maximum number of people in a small geographic neighborhood or community; street posters are perhaps the most valuable medium serving the community. Examples would include lost kitty poster, anti UCD posters, times and locations of Clark Park redesign meetings, anti war rallies, etc. To me, this first UCD enforcement policy shows a reckless disregard for the residents of this neighborhood by an out of control UCD police, or it suggests a deliberate focus on stifling free speech and thwarting any type of community organizing outside of UCD's direct control. Stop showing a bullying style of debating, Cassidy. Yes you impressed Tony, Brian and Melani with your cheap rant.

[UC] open sewer disaster
Hi all. I'd appreciate any advice regarding who to contact to have a sewer hole covered as soon as possible. The large rectangular plate that covers the top of the sewer is missing at the northeast corner of 49th Warrington. My concern is that a child will fall into it and drown. It looks pretty deep and is filled with water; at nighttime you would not even see that it was missing, especially if you were stepping out of your car. (The seriousness of this is not to be minimized; a student recently fell down into an open manhole not too long ago and suffered catastrophic injuries. All parties involved are denying responsibility.) -- Regards, John Ellingsworth You are receiving this because you are subscribed to the list named UnivCity.

Of course this is all absurd except for Melanie's growing admiration of me. Thank you Melanie. I never did any battle with Fairmount Park Commission. The special events review committee serves a responsible purpose for our city. It seeks to reinburse the city for large costly events like the South St. Mardi Gras where business owners profit and the city spends lots of money The Quality of life task force was a UCD/FOCP attempt to put Clark Park stakeholders on trial with a secretive kangaroo court. They stacked the decks with area bullies and held this in the creepy old Horn and Hardart from Sept. 2001 to early 2002. Lew melmon was the 45th St representative and Penny represented the 4300 block of Baltimore Ave. UCD/FOCP was unsuccessful in its attempts to misuse the law and force us into this review process. They disingenuously attempted to demand that the law required all Clark park events to go through this special events committee. Like so often occured back then, I was the one forced to beat the bullies in that creepy dungeon and show that this law was in no way to be used as a tool to transfer the Woodland Ave Reunion and the Clark park festivals to UCD. I remember Cindi, we just want to make sure the law is being followed I didn't want to make fools out of FOCP presidents, but they always leave me with no option. Anyone that cared to follow all the long posts can really see that there was no mistake but is a rather pathetic cheap trick in action. This is the West/Cassidy obfuscation literary technique.

MessageNo. I thought of the irony. That was a pretty silly time to make a simple error. Of course, it only suggests that I made a careless error. It should also remind me to be more careful. Sometimes I am hearing words as I write them so this error of using an incorrect homonym is one that I then have to focus attention when I check for errors.

[UC] RE: Vote for Nutter
After being very undecided inthe Mayor's race, I came to the conclusion that Michael Nutter would be the best candidate. In reading reports and hearing personal observations from a lot of different sources, the one constant theme was that of all the candidates, Nutter was the one who had the best grasp of the issues. Nutter has been endorsed by the editorial boards of both daily newspapers: Daily News http://www.philly.com/philly/opinion/20070504_MICHAEL_NUTTER_FOR_MAYOR.html Inquirer: http://www.philly.com/inquirer/currents/oped_sunday/20070429_Editorial___Michael_Nutter_for_mayor.html Karen Allen From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Vote for Nutter: [was: Re: [UC] Bob Brady Supported by Bored Carpenters] Date: Wed, 2 May 2007 16:39:21 EDT I agree 100% with everything in Liz's post. Michael Nutter did a great job in City Council, especially by managing to pass the smoking ban and ethics reforms despite the Mayor's personal dislike for him. That was really HARD, to pull together enough Council votes despite his lack of support from Street - I don't think that anyone else running for mayor has the political savvy to finesse that sort of effort. A few years ago several Realtors tried to meet with every City Council member on an issue important to real estate sales in Philadelphia, at a time when the sales market was depressed. Some Council members had us meet with their aides. Some didn't want to meet at all. Michael Nutter took the time to meet with us personally, asked good questions, showed a quick and thorough understanding of the issue - I was very much impressed. I've been just as impressed later times, observing him asking questions in City Council hearings. He doesn't miss ANYTHING. And he never loses his temper or raises his voice. He's totally in control and has an incredible grasp of a huge variety of subjects and situations. We need him in City Hall. Fattah and Evans can continue to serve best by staying with the jobs they took on previously and were elected to do. It seems unfair for them to quit those jobs in midstream after the voters chose them, after they told the voters that those were the jobs they wanted to do. I think Knox is totally naive and wouldn't have a clue about how to get any City employee's attention or respect. And I think we are better off with ANYBODY other than Brady! My only problem with Michael Nutter's campaign is that I signed up for one of his yard signs, and I didn't get it, and I know someone else who has had the same experience.

Re: [UC] RE: Vote for Nutter
I believe Nutter is the one candidate who can produce real change in the city government. He has stood up against the city government in-club and through his actions has shown that he is sincere when he speaks about reform. He's had a number of innovative ideas, some of which he has been able to turn into actual legislation. I believe he has integrity. I don't know if I've ever felt that way about a politician before! And he has a good chance to win! The City Paper has also endorsed Nutter with a persuasive article: http://www.citypaper.net/articles/2007/05/03/michael-nutter-for-mayor Margie After being very undecided inthe Mayor's race, I came to the conclusion that Michael Nutter would be the best candidate.

[UC] 5/5/6 at 7:30 PM : Neighbor to dazzle and delight
Cecelia Chaisson, our world class Soprano, performs close to home, tomorrow Saturday, May 5, at 7:30 PM at St. Francis De Sales, in the main church 4615 Springfield Ave / 19143 The performance of Art songs and Arias will last approximately one hour. It will feature some of the songs on her new CD, MOSAICS in MUSIC. Cecelia will be accompanied by Pianist, Joseph Krupa. After signing, 'Diva' will sign copies of her CD. Tickets for the concert are $25.00 ($15.00 for Seniors and Students). They are available at the rectory, at the church, after Mass on Sunday (about Noon), and at the door. CDs will be available for $15.00 each. We know Cecelia sings magnificently. Her extraordinary voice has been highly praised by critics. She has won many awards, including winner in the Luciano Pavarotti Voice Competition and the Baltimore Opera International Voice Competition. She donates her voice for fundraising concerts and in Mass celebrations. There are many on the list who journey to Christmas Eve concerts, to hear her. This concert offers a bolder range of her dramatic coloratura soprano talent. Cecelia has selected songs in FRENCH, GERMAN, ITALIAN and even ENGLISH. Classicists will appreciate her Mozart Aria and I'll embrace the Whole World when she performs the Spiritual arrangement by Bonds. You might consider this an early Mother's day gift and / or a great opportunity to experience the one of the excellent artists that buttresses our neighborhood's cultural and social image. Profits from the concert will help restore the SFDS organ. Abbraccio Restaurant, located at 47th Street and Warrington Avenue, just one block from the church, is planning a special preconcert, three-course Italian dinner. A portion of the proceeds will also benefit the Organ Restoration Society. You may call for information – 215-pasta 47.
Re: [UC] RE: Vote for Nutter
Folks, I've had my heart set on Michael Nutter since last fall and I'm glad to some local voters sharing the same desire to elect him. This five horse race Democratic primary has left many people in Philly with conflicted feelings about choosing candidates who have paid their dues vs. those who are simply the smartest and most capable of enacting positive change in Philly. i've long since given up the notion that any candidate in Philly or anywhere on Earth deserves to be put into office, because they've either just hung around long enough or bought the influence of other power brokers. Nutter, to me, is the only candidate who can not only rise above, but perhaps even get rid of this culture of political entitlement within the Democratic party in Philadelphia.

I put a 20 gallon blue recycling bin in the hole so no drunken trustafrain farmacy student falls in an sues the City. That's money that should go to a long-time neighborhood resident, not some fancy kid from Jersey. If some stakeholder walks off with my blue bucky, I'll just pick up another tomoorow at the Clark Park Farmers Market near 43rd and Baltimore in SW Unidelphia City. The Friends of Clark Park and Councilwoman Blackwell's staff will be distributing shiny new bins for the the Streets Dept.. Even though Streets now believes that Recycling Pays, it also thinks that the taxpayers should go pick them up. If the Councilwoman stops by I'll tell her about the missing cover near you, but you'll need to remind me the location. -Lew I am sorry to say they never came, and the sewer is still open.
