I will keep his family in prayers.

This is a form of abuse and it should not be tolerated. We have anti-bullying laws in the state but it has no teeth in them. Maybe it would be nice to have this teacher wear duct tape all day as well? Then he or she could be tormented like this child was.

Each child deserves to be treated with dignity and respect. Unfortunately these children are often teased and bullied. It is sad that a teacher is dishing this out. A teacher is suppose to set an example to their students they teach. The decent thing this school system should do is fire this teacher. All too often teachers have a tendency to turn their back on the children when there is trouble. Like ignoring the situation will make it go away. This is a form of what is going on nationally and it needs to stop.

Not from where I am sitting. I just finished talking to another unemployed person who is homeless. The number of unemployed in Elkhart County is still too high.

Most of the time thats all a police officer gets. What gets me is he is suppose to protect citizens from criminals, here he is a criminal himself. Here the police thinks that they are better than anybody else here he below the standards of an honest working person.

I hope the good Lord is looking out for everyone at this accident.

This might be construed as slander. I feel this is definately an abuse of power by the excise police. It also looks like an obstruction of justice too, because it looks as though these excise police purposefully hung on to the video til the time element ran out on being able to use the video for blue jeans owners! These excise police should lose their jobs as well as their homes.

Has she been rehabilitated? I would think she would have to serve at least half her sentence. I guess because she was a teacher that makes a difference? Where is the justice here? Can someone explain this to me? Please be civil about this when you explain this to me. I just don't understand.

This company should pay for another best friend and also pay for the emotional distress this man is gong through. My heart goes out to this man. I think you have a lot of people here on your side. I hope you can recover from this experience.

They are illegal aliens!!! That is all there is to it. We've had to repackage everything from cake mixes or going to a home improvement store with multi-language signs to cater to them because they flatly refuse to learn the language of the majority of this country. Because they refuse to learn the language they are more than happy to pull their children out of school to conduct their business transactions. So lets call it for what it really is, a bunch of border jumpers!!!!!

I hope he is going to a good and loving home. This is such a happy outcome for Charlie. Glad to hear a happy story on the news!

He sure like a cute little guy. I hope he finds a great home. I hope the authorities find who did this to this puppy.

I feel even though this is not a popular stand on this subject I feel we do need to clear the air. I have a right to be able to breathe with little or no difficulty. I know when I can't breathe due to someone elses habit and they are happy to see me struggling I know there is something wrong here. Both my parents smoke and they don't seem to care that I have respiratory problem, probably because I was introduced to their habit since birth. So I have little regard to allowing smoke in a public place.

It is a very bad there when you have a left turn. I guess it will take people getting killed before something gets done.

Nobody cares, the senators claim that they are thinking of their children and their children. So this is the answer they can give for not extending unemployment. We have senators who can only give no for not extending unemployment. Senators are real chummy with banks, car companies and drug companies. So they feel justified into saying no to the workers of this country. I really feel they should be impeached. They don't realize that we have been footing their bills for years. If this isn't extended these fine senators could find themselves joining the ranks of the unemployed.

We try to find a job when there are not enough jobs for everyone. Then you see signs on the doors, "Not Accepting applications at this time" We have friends and family who are a great support system. But they also can belittle you and tell you drawing unemployment is a form of welfare. What is really bad is we have paid our taxes for many years and there are a lot of people like what I have seen debate this on this discussion. They haven't a clue on what it is like. I hope they never find out what it is like.

I feel for the family of this great public servant.

Possibly consolidation may not mean consistent service. I've had my mail come as early as 11am and as late as 4pm. I live in the washington township area. So I really don't think that this is being consistent. I hate to say this but mail service will probably go down to 4or 5 days a week, if this keeps going like it is right now.
