Ron Beaty Opposes the “Undemocratic” Proposal to Abolish the Barnstable County Assembly of Delegates

As part of its Calendar of Business for today, it is my understanding that the County Assembly will be undertaking input, discussion and report on the activities of the Special Commission on County Governance. At this time, I would like to respectfully call your attention to the attached Cape Cod Times news article from December 15th entitled, “County advocates aim for broader reach.” Within the content of the twelfth paragraph (which has been marked for your convenience), you will notice a reference made to a statement made by Wendy Northcross with the Cape Cod Chamber of Commerce in which she calls for the complete abolition of the County Assembly of Delegates. I find statements such as this to be truly disturbing…
As a constituent, Cape Cod resident and voter, I would like to emphatically voice my absolute opposition to such an ill-advised and undemocratic course of action being recommended to the Special Commission. The County Assembly of Delegates is the duly elected democratic voice of the people of Cape Cod, and provides the necessary protections against overzealous special interest groups like those represented by Ms. Northcross. The County Assembly is the epitome of the American system of “checks and balances” as embodied in both the Barnstable County Home Rule Charter and the United States Constitution.
Along with the other residents and voters of Cape Cod, I look forward to the Assembly’s appropriate response to the Special Commission regarding this and other important issues of concern. Thank you for your valuable time and considerate attention, it is truly appreciated.

The Blancier Desert Wolf Military Chronograph is launched to honor brave troops returning home from the war.

Delft, ZH – In honour of the brave troops returning from Iraq and other distant locations, Blancier Handmade Watches have created a new and limited edition Military chronograph watch. The Blancier Desert Wolf Military Chronograph is a limited edition device that represents the indefatigable and committed nature of the troops dedicated to the war across the world. The watch is designed to the specifications of the modern soldier and is sturdy, affordable and suitable to military views.
The military watch carries the image of the desert front on the dial, printed in camouflage style. The design also includes an American flag emblem. The co ordinates to the zone are printed between the number 12 and the center point, signifying the support to the troops. Blancier Handmade Watches have placed a great deal of emphasis on creating a sturdy and durable device that can withstand the travails faced by a military soldier during battles.
The device is encased in a casing of matte black steel. The shape of a rounded square adds to its sober look. Comfortable to wear and suited for outdoor use, the Blancier Desert Wolf Military Chronograph Limited USA Edition, is a valuable gift for soldiers returning from Iraq. The device shows gratitude and displays support for these brave troops at home and abroad. The dial also uses a double sided non-reflecting sapphire glass. The dial is illuminated by the orange Super-Luminova© numbers.
Comfort, efficiency and durability are vital for the creation of the perfect military watch. Blancier Corporation has been involved in the creation of this device to meet the high standards of the military news and provide them the best results. To each aspect of the watch design and creation careful attention has been paid. The addition of the chrono-pushers at the top of the dial, rather than the side, is a pointer to such innovative thought.
Quality has remained a matter of high importance for the company. This makes the watch a perfect gift for soldiers returning home after a difficult time. The watch is priced at competitive rates making it easily accessible and highly affordable. Customers can choose to place their orders online at WWW.BLANCIER.US. The site also allows a healthy discount at the entry of a code and helps customers make a surprise and worthy gift to their soldiers returning home.

It seems everyone can’t get enough of Pinterest, with the terms ‘pinning’ , ‘re-pin’ and ‘like my pins’ spreading quickly around cyberspace.

The hottest new social network of 2012, Pinterest is a curatorial site that calls itself a “virtual pinboard,” which allows users to capture and organize images from the web.
