Very Interesting article in the Atlantic, starts off as such:
The subprime crisis is just the tip of the iceberg. Fundamental changes in American life may turn today’s McMansions into tomorrow’s tenements.

PA HB 904 Needs your support
PA H.B. 904 Would Allow A Temporary Development Moratorium in YOUR Community. Call YOUR elected representatives in PA today! We feel that this is an election issue for Pennsylvanians and Pennsylvania communities that should not be buried. This thing has been languishing in Appropriations since early December, 2007!
Is it not true that one thing that drives citizens in local PA municipalties crazy is when they ask their local governments WHY a project can't slow down or be re-evaluated? This bill isn't anti-development, it is just a way of ensuring that citizens and communities as a whole get what they need for their communities! This bill might just give communities that breathing room they sometimes feel they need. This bill isn't punative against developers or development, it is just common sense.

Boards and Commission positions announced
At the meeting of the Commissioners on Monday the 11th many appointments were announced. I have no problem with the choices however I would like to know who applied and what were the qualifications of the applicants.
We really need to start openning up these discussions. I do not agree that the names and quals are protected by the Sunshine Act as personnel matters. I agree that the discussions of the Commissioners regarding the decisions should be private.
