Champion Teacher, Strong Programs at Jackson School

by Eldon Graham Excellence on the job is an achievement that all too often goes unrecognized. But when a local teacher was recognized last week, it was as heart-warming as it was well deserved.

Jayda Pugliese, a South Philadelphia 5th-grade math and science teacher at Andrew Jackson Elementary School, was the recipient of the Milken Educator Award, the nation’s pre-eminent teacher-recognition program. The award is designed to honor exemplary teachers, principals and specialists; winning educators, such as Pugliese, have been surprised with a $25,000 prize since 1987.

But parents and children at Jackson School weren’t surprised. This modest, blue-collar neighborhood K-8 public school fields many other stars besides Pugliese and is held up as a model in the School District.

Pugliese didn’t know what she was walking into at what she thought was a normal assembly, in the school gym.

“Honestly, I was completely shocked,” Pugliese said. “I was overwhelmed with so much emotion that I began to cry. I kept saying to myself, I cannot wait to tell my husband and family. After that, I knew that at some point, Michael Milken of the Milken Family Foundation was going to invite me to speak to all of the individuals within the room. I was attempting to gather my thoughts for something to say.”

Going forward, Pugliese says she cannot begin to even imagine how this will affect her.

“From the amount of attention I have received, to now being a part of a large professional com-

munity of Milken Educators, this is going to positively impact my credibility within this field,” she said. “I know winning this award will open up many doors in the future if I decide to move out of the classroom and into an administrative position. I do aspire to become a principal one day.”

But she remains rooted in her classroom job. “I do not believe I see myself any different than I did before. I see myself as a motivated, dedicated and hard-working teacher that loves her job and her students. To me, winning this award tells me that others recognize my passion for this profession and that I must be doing something right,” she said.

Pugliese’s dedication to teaching stems from people who helped her find her calling.

“First, there is my mother, Tammy,” she noted. “My mother is a very calm and patient woman, and has always enjoyed children. Growing up, my house was always open to the local neighborhood kids to eat, play and be safe.”

But she drew much from those who taught he as well, from elementary school through college. “Many of my teachers were so innovative in their teaching methods and really instilled into me a love for learning,” she said.

Her final inspiration was her disability. Pugliese is hearingimpaired.

“I struggled with being bullied a lot in school, and even more so, some adults told me I would never amount to anything,” she recounted. “But I never listened to other individuals and always believed that if

I worked hard at what I wanted in life, good things will come my way. I know there are many students in today’s society who are bullied for a variety of reasons, and I always tell my students, ‘I used to be one of you.’”

Pugliese grew up in a South Philadelphia neighborhood, at 6th & Fitzwater Streets. She now teaches less than 10 minutes away from her childhood home. The daughter of an auto mechanic and a homemaker who worked at McDonald’s to pay her daughter’s tuition, Pugliese attended St. Mary Interparochial School in Center City, then St. Maria Goretti High School.

It is an understatement to say that the principal at Jackson School, Lisa Ciaranca Kaplan, is very happy for Ms. Pugliese.

“It’s exciting,” Ms. Kaplan enthused. “To have a teacher recognized for the importance of teaching is a very validating achievement, just an incredible honor.”

Kaplan also spoke about Pugliese’s dedications to teaching her students. “You don’t become a teacher because you think you going to get wealthy from it; you do it for so many other reasons.”

Kaplan knows what an honor it is to receive national recognition. In 2015, she was awarded the Escalante-Gradillas Prize for Best in Education, a national award for principals.

Andrew Jackson’s Other Strengths Pugliese is not the only bright spot in Jackson School.

The mission statement for the school is “Working United Towards Excellence,” which Ka-

plan created seven years ago with the school’s diverse community in mind. The school is home to 29 different cultures and 14 different languages – the faculty refers to it as a “miniUnited Nations.”

The community is a big part of the school. Community partnerships help run the school’s library.

The school has programing partnerships with local colleges and universities. Temple University helps run the robotic club. Penn State helps the Spanish Club.

Last year, Jackson piloted a program called the “World Heritage Week.” Considering the diverse neighborhood surrounding the school, many cultures were explored.

The organization Musicopia partners with the school to teach students about diverse musical traditions from around the world, using real musical instruments.

Last Saturday, Jackson School students played for Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders at the University of the Arts. Two of the performers were 5th-grader Chelsea Liu and 6th-grader Joslyn Hernandez. “It was the best thing to have happened to me,” Hernandez said.

Love of music leads to love of school. “Ours is the best,” the girls concurred.

There’s the Crazy Eights Club, in which students do math. There is an Italian Club, which is for English as a Second Language children. Two teachers at the school run the Art Club and there is also a Rotary Club.

One community partner, Cosacosa Art At Large, creates

Brady announces $300k for Columbus Square Park Congressman Bob Brady (D-Phila.) announced the National Park Service has awarded Philadelphia a Land & Water Conservation Fund grant for the rehabilitation of Columbus Square Park, located between 12th and 13th Streets and Wharton and Reed Streets in the Passyunk area of

South Philadelphia.

The Land & Water Conservation Fund is a partnership program that provides matching funds to states and local communities for acquisition, development, and conservation of parks and open space.

The $300,000 matching grant will be used to rehabili-

tate the athletic field, park entrances, passive “Patio” area, dog park expansion, demolition of an unused building, new spray ground features, new open lawn area, expansion of nature path, site improvements, landscaping and signage.

The Congressman said,

“Columbus Square is a neighborhood recreational landmark that is well on its way to being rejuvenated as a result of input and support from a variety of areas, including federal, state and local government and involved roll-up-your-sleeves members of the community.”

Unitarian Universalist Church of the Restoration senior citizens help a program called “Learning Buddies” and also volunteer at the school’s library. Additional local church partnerships are Christian Street Baptist Church and Hope Baptist Church. The latter does a mentorship program for young African American males who attend the school.

Dancing Classrooms Philly has a partnership with the school. Koresh is free-flowing dance-and-movement program; City Step features hip-hop.

After Classes…

Come the Clubs Pugliese doesn’t just do STEM classes. She also runs also runs the HYPE club.

HYPE stands for “Healthy Youth Positive Energy.”

“Students need to feel overall wellness,” Pugliese affirmed. In this club, students can discuss environment and social issues. “It’s a good environment to help students to socialize positively.” The program is after school and runs 34:30 p.m. It allows for relaxation or working on the rooftop garden.

Another program Pugliese leads is “Steam Makers,” a 3-D printing program in which students collaborate and create 3D objects. Students can design by hands as well as on the computer.

The program is currently in the midst of creating a prosthetic arm, which they would like to donate to someone in need.

Pugliese raised money through DonorsChoose to buy the printer for the school. It was the first 3-D printer has been acquired by an elementary school in the United States.

The Jackson Home-School Association communicates to its the multicultural neighborhood.

Parents lead it. Marina D’Angelo is the president and has a 2nd-grader in the school.

Amanda Casper is the secretary, with a 1st-grader.

Philadelphia - A new report has just been released which reveals 7 costly mistakes that most homeowners make when selling their home, and a 9 Step System that can help you sell your home fast and for the most amount of money.

This industry report shows clearly how the traditional ways of selling homes have become increasingly less and less effective in today's market. The fact of the matter is that fully three quarters of homesellers don't get what they want for their homes and become disillusioned and - worse - financially disadvantaged when they put their homes on the market.

Today’s Voters Beyond Intimidation!

by Joe Shaheeli We yawn every time we see Democrats knee-jerking to Republican efforts to allow poll watchers to serve outside of their home counties. Such a bill is now wending its way through the General Assembly.

To minority parties, it makes sense. To majority parties, they see it as another scary character at Halloween time, worried about its effect on voters, opening the doors to voter intimidation.

The truth is the Republican Party in this state worries there could be cheating at polls in this city, where Democrats are in total control of most of the election boards in the over 1,860 election districts or divisions in this town.

stood. He says the change would make easier to fill the volunteer positions if residents of one county could help in another county. Counties would still have to certify the poll watchers, he said.

“You can’t be a roaming band of poll-watchers, coming in disrupting things,” he said.

“They can’t disrupt anything.

Poll-watchers are only there to observe and report. They’re there to make sure things are running properly.”

State Sen. Vincent Hughes (D-W. Phila.) doesn’t believe

it. He said the bill is designed to cause disruption at polling places across Pennsylvania, but particularly in places with high numbers of African American and Latino voters.

On Election Day, it is they who create an aura that tells the election board, watchers, candidates, and any other observers, “Don’t mess with me!”

But you can bet fraud does rear its head in divisions controlled by judges of election and other members with or without outside watchers, no matter from where they come.

Cheering on Trump (Cont. From Page 7) If the leadership of that election board is hell-bent on getting additional votes for candidates they favor, there is little to stop them.

For instance, if a watcher needs to go to the bathroom, 10 to 20 or more votes can be registered on a voting machine within several minutes before the watcher’s return. Later, under the eyes of the watcher, the board can begin to forge the signatures of those the board knows will not be coming out to vote, but are registered. They usually are members or close friends of board members and already are aware of the “program.”

Few are the sophisticated watchers who know and understand the inner workings of that particular election board.

Our Opinion

Does Pennsylvania Need Outside Poll-Watchers Man was born with the ability to discern good from evil. It’s called a conscience.

Since the dawn of memory, our history is replete with examples of those who choose to do evil over good when doing so is to their advantage.

This carries into all fields of endeavor, especially politics. So when a bill to allow poll watchers to operate outside their own county appears on the legislative calendar in the State House, in a state already notorious for its lax poll-watching standards, protests are heard.

There are many who feel – with justification, based on Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s nonstop dog whistling that the only way he could lose in the Commonwealth is if “cheating” goes on “in certain areas,” as he has repeated at campaign stops across the state over the past few months – that voters will be intimidated by the presence of these strangers observing them inside the polling place, be they sitting or standing.

Democrats fear these watchers will intimidate voters. Republicans feel they need the ability to bring in watchers from anywhere to make up for the lack of Republican representation on many election boards as discussed in our “Pols on the Street” column on Page 4 of this issue.

In such a contentious and vitriolic presidential campaign as has not been witnessed for several generations, if ever, it is obvious the minds of the majority of voters have been made up. In their determination to cast their vote, we caution campaign workers to expect tongue-lashings for daring to interfere with them for even a moment, whether of their own volition or at the behest of a poll-watcher brought in specifically to impede the democratic process. Watchers can create long voter lines by challenging every vote. The Registration Commission should instruct Judges of Election, should that be the case, throw them out!

We ask again: Is there a need to have watchers at polls? Democratic poll workers say no. Republican ward leaders without the ability to staff minority openings say yes.

We think allowing out-of-county watchers is no different than today’s practice of permitting watchers from anywhere in the city being assigned to a division outside of their own by their respective party candidates, as long as the watchers themselves are appropriately trained – and policed – to make sure the only thing they are doing is ensuring the correct vote tallies at the end of the day, not overtly or covertly intimidating voters as a form of fealty to a candidate. We should take this responsibility as seriously as we should take the claims of Trump that we are incapable of running an unimpeachable Election Day. “Empty Chair Debate” at Curran’s Irish Inn, 6900 State Rd. 3-5 p.m.

(Cont. From Page 9) appoint a special committee to investigate the potential removal of Charles Wasko, mayor of West York Borough, pursuant to Article VI, Section 7 of the Pennsylvania Constitution.

Wasko has received international attention for repeatedly posting threatening, racist, misogynistic and religiously offensive images on social media. Some of the posts even appear to threaten the life of the President of the United States and denigrate the First Family.

“This is simply unacceptable,” said Hughes. “Federal law makes it a crime to threaten the life of the president of the United States. I do not take the removal of an elected official lightly, but clearly Wasko is unfit to hold

office and this very serious step must be taken.”

Wasko has repeatedly posted content that compares African Americans to orangutans and gorillas. He has also posted photos that attack Muslim Americans and even suggested President Barack Obama should be lynched.

Numerous organizations have called for him to resign, including the West York Borough Council and Pennsylvania NAACP. “We know from Wasko’s social-media posts that he holds contemptable attitudes towards many of his own constituents,” said Hughes. “His removal is something that ought to be supported by all good thinking people in West York and across Pennsylvania.”

The Pennsylvania Constitution provides a vehicle for the Pennsylvania Senate to remove Wasko from office.

That action would require a full investigation and an affirmative vote of two-thirds of the Pennsylvania Senate.

“I do not believe Wasko

can perform his duties as mayor,” said Hughes. “His behavior is unacceptable, especially since public officials must be held to a higher standard. It’s time for the Pennsylvania Senate to take action and consider taking the step of removing him from office.”

Taylor Works on Drug Epidemic

Another Element In Martina’s Race?

When Martina White was selected to run in a special election last year, she needed to convince Democrats to vote for her as well as Republicans, since she faced a district that had a Democratic registration majority of 2 to 1.

She won that race with a margin of 14 points to become the youngest woman serving in the General Assembly and the first newly elected Republican to the House from Philadelphia in 25 years.

Worrying her now in her efforts to stave off Matt Darragh in the 170th Dist. is the fact her anti-Sanctuary legislation has brought in a new element against her.

The Public Record • October 13, 2016

Several members of the Prince Hall Masons, including Sheriff Jewell Williams, passed out gun locks in Center City shortly after being honored in City Council with a resolution by 2nd Dist. Councilman Kenyatta Johnson for their “outstanding civic and philanthropic contributions” throughout Philadelphia and the State of Pennsylvania.

Sheriff Williams, a 33rd Degree Mason, joined the Most Worshipful Grand Master Joseph Jefferson and several other Prince Hall Masons as they distributed gun locks on the street.

“This is not only an honor for the organization, but historic as well,” he said. “After the City Hall ceremony, we went into the street in full Masonic regalia to hand out gun locks to anyone who wanted it ... no questions asked.”

The gun locks were being distributed as part of a statewide initiative to promote gun safety, especially in homes where children reside.

The Prince Hall Masons were also recognized for holding their 201st Grand Lodge Session in Philadelphia Oct. 10-13 at the Sheraton Hotel, 17th & Race Streets.

The Prince Hall Masons were started by a Black man, Prince Hall, who helped establish African Lodge No. 459 of Philadelphia, the first Masonic

City Controller Alan Butkovitz has found City’s Mail Center employees engaged in time fraud allowing them to receive thousands of dollars for overtime they never worked.

By performing video surveillance and examining time records over an eight-week period, his office determined that almost 300 hours valued at $10,000 were considered overpayments for overtime that was not performed. This was conspired by the Mail Center’s Supervisor and the Administrative Officer, who both knowingly certified the overtime for themselves and other Mail Center employees.

The Supervisor alone certified almost 111 hours of his own time when he was not at the work site, costing in excess of $3,800. In addition, the Supervisor certified 169 hours of overtime for 10 Mail Center employees, costing in excess of $5,000.

“The Supervisor’s time sheets were a complete farce when we compared them to our video surveillance,” said Butkovitz. “This was fraud, and it should never be toler-

Unless you do not watch television, you have to have seen the ads stoking the fires of the “war on women.” US SEN. PAT TOOMEY is criticized for wanting to defund Planned Parenthood and being anti-abortion. DONALD TRUMP has a documented history of saying very inappropriate things about women. Linking Toomey and Trump together on the female issue is crazy, but so many on the left think being anti-abortion is the same as being a sex offender (not that it has been proven Trump is).

Perhaps the most independently minded woman in the US Senate, Maine SEN. SUSAN COLLINS would not agree the re-election of Toomey is bad for women. She personally demonstrated her support at a “Women for Toomey” event on Tuesday at the Avenue Restaurant in Villanova. Before a packed room of mostly women, Collins stood beside her fellow senator and pleaded with us to work to send him back to Washington.

At this point I am handing the quill to a female elephant.

“Women’s issues are more nuanced than our ovaries. It offends me that I am supposed to believe that having easy access to abortion makes me equal. What I am concerned about is far more complex.

“Toomey in his comments on Tuesday noted it is appalling that the left has decided a 1% growth in GDP is the new norm and more than acceptable. He is running against a woman who has made a career of supporting increased taxes on the middle class – that hurts women. KATIE McGINTY (Cont. Page 21)

by Denise Clay If I were Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, there’s one very important thing that I’d keep in mind as we continue the trip to Crazy Town that has become the 2016 presidential race.

That thing? Well, if I were The Donald, I’d remember that Bill Clinton, the Significant Other of your opponent, Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, is from Arkansas.

Sure, he’s a Rhodes Scholar. Sure, he’s a graduate of Georgetown University and Yale Law School. Sure, he’s known internationally for his work with the Clinton Foundation. Sure, he’s a two-term president. Heck, he’s even a vegetarian these days.

But he’s also from Arkansas, which is part of the American South.

And there’s only so much that a Southern man is going to let you say or do to his wife before he makes you come face to face with the consequences of your actions.

During Sunday night’s town-hall style presidential debate, Hillary Clinton and Trump duked it out in a contest that showed just how much slime we’re going to have to scrape off of our collective shoes as a country before this nonsense ends.

The debate was held in light of a videotape of Trump and Billy Bush, then the co-host of the entertainment show “Access Hollywood,” had on the way to a guest appearance that Trump was doing on the soap opera “Days of Our Lives.”

In this tape, which was made shortly after he married his third wife, Melania, we gain some insight into Trump’s mat(Cont. Page 21)

Yo! Here we go again with this observation about teen poverty in America.

We just spent several hours watching teenagers hanging out at our local mall. We came to the conclusion that many teenagers in America today are living in poverty. Most young men we observed didn’t even own a belt; there was not one among the whole group.

But that wasn’t the sad part. Many were wearing their daddies’ jeans. Some jeans were so big and baggy they hung low on their hips, exposing their underwear. I know some must have been ashamed their daddy was short, because his jeans hardly went below their knees. They weren’t even their daddies’ good jeans, for most had holes ripped in the knees and a dirty look to them.

It grieved us, in a modern, affluent society like America, that there are those who can’t afford a decent pair of jeans. I was thinking about asking my church to start a jeans drive for poor kids at the mall. Then, on Christmas Eve, we could go Christmas caroling and distribute jeans to these poor teenagers But here is the saddest part ... it was the girls who were hanging out there that disturbed us most. Never, in all of our lives, have we seen such poverty-stricken girls. These girls had the opposite problem of the guys. They all had to wear their little sisters’ clothes. Their jeans were about five sizes too small! I don’t know how they could get them on, let alone button them up. Their jeans barely went over their hipbones. Most also had on their little sister’s top; it hardly covered their midsections. Oh, they were trying to hold their heads up with pride, but it was a sad sight to see these almost grown women wearing children’s clothes.

However, it was their underwear that bothered us most. They, like the boys, because of the improper fitting of their clothes, had their underwear exposed. We had never seen anything like it. It looked like their underwear was only held together by a single piece of string.

We know it saddens your heart to receive this report on condition of our American teenagers. While we go to bed every night – with closets full of clothes nearby – there are millions of “mall girls” who barely have enough material to keep it together.

We think their poverty is why these two groups gather at the mall; boys with their short daddies’ ripped jeans, and girls wearing their younger sisters’ clothes. The mall is one place (Cont. Page 21)

The GOP legislature should go along with Gov. Tom WOLF on some six measures to slow the OPIOID EPEDEMIC. More than 3,500 lives have been lost and there is no apparent end in sight! We need to stop playing the fiddle while the commonwealth burns. Don’t worry – the GOP can take credit for passage. It is also very sad when we read of the FEDS searching homes, indicting or arresting labor leaders and politicos, while HEROIN is everywhere. What are they doing about it? Is there less publicity over a drug raid vs. a POL RAID? How about that feature article by Radio Host Dom Giordano! He took on Pope Francis, Mayor Kenney and the “Misguided” policy of Sanctuary Cities? The flap seems to be over the State Rep. Martina WHITE legislation. Kenney accusing White of possibly taking funds from the needy if the measure becomes law. Giordano did not show any concern for needy that might be hurt by the law? Lack of concern sounds a bit like neo-con SPEAK. He wrote that positions of POPE FRANCIS appeal to the LEFT. So is Giordano a RIGHT-WINGER? He wrote Kenney KNOWS NO BOUNDARIES – based on one quote (?). And there is that TIME-WORN telling of a story of a criminal who is an illegal. Many times it is used by NEO-CONS to infer that all illegals are CRIMINAL. So many articles and blogs that attack the DEMS never muster fortitude to tell us they support of represent the opposition political party. Whatever your view, you should demand the party registration of the attack-article writer. You need to weigh if the writer spouts (Cont. Page 19)

Former VP AL GORE debuted on the campaign scene to initial excitement. But after a few moments, boredom returned as the awareness set in that it was Al Gore.

The insane fiasco of this presidential race continues. DONALD TRUMP is now attacking all of the establishment Republicans and may be on his way to creating a third-party movement in America. MAYOR JIM KENNEY welcomed the Abbey Theatre to Philadelphia in conversation Hall. He was joined by LT. GOV. MIKE STACK, CONSUL GENERAL BARBARA JONES and BRYAN McMAHON. McMahon is the executive director of the famous Irish theater that the shines light on the historic quest for Irish independence. Kenney is the first mayor of Philadelphia of Irish descent since JIM TATE back in the late ’60s. Also on hand at the reception were TEESA DONNELLY and her husband JIM, PAT and BETH STACK, PATRICK STACK, JR., EILEEN MIRSCH, JUDGE GENE MAIER, his wife LANA and his son DOUG, FRANK and PAT MORAN, CAROL & MARK POGGIO, and MIKE ROWLEY. The first play is called The Plough & the Stars and will play for a week at the Annenberg Center, starting next week.

CONGRESSMAN BOB BRADY welcomed Democratic congressional leader NANCY PELOSI to Philadelphia to help launch the USS John P. Murtha, named after the iconic congressman from Johnstown. The majority of the Murtha family attended. Lt. Gov. Stack gave welcoming remarks and was followed by his army colleague and UNDER SECRETARY OF THE ARMY PATRICK MURPHY. The USS Murtha is a state-of-the-art warship with the capacity to launch attack helicopters, including the double propeller-jet helicopter hybrid, the Osprey.

JUDGE PAT DUGAN was among the VIPs who attended The Irish Hunger remembrance gala at the DoubleTree. On hand was JUDGE FAYE STACK and her daughter-in-law, Pennsylvania 2ND LADY TONYA STACK. Also there to support and remember were philanthropist EMILY CONNELLY, RUSS WILEY, BOB GESSLER, TOM NARDI and BARBARA JONES. PAT TOOMEY’S margin for error in the US Senate race is shrinking rapidly.

them to be a terrorist such that they cant get on an airplane – why would we allow that terrorist, or that suspected terrorist to have a firearm? You have a lot more movement and even a consensus in the right direction of passing something, even though we didn’t get there a few months ago.

Most of it, frankly, has been bad news. We haven’t gotten the votes for background checks yet; we haven’t gotten the votes for limitations on magazines – the number of bullets a person can discharge from a weapon at one time; there’s no ban yet on the military style weapons – this is a series of measures that are common-sense and don’t in any way infringe on the 2nd Amendment, and yet we can’t get it done.

PPR: Could you elaborate on your push to have gun-control legislation treated with the same sense of urgency and determination by Congress as was evidenced by post-9/11 legislation?

SC: It’s not a perfect analogy, but we learned something in the aftermath of 9/11. Out of the outrage and the horror, you

Sen. Bob Casey can come together to take action and sustain it over time. I think it is in some ways more difficult with this issue, because it doesn’t have the kind of seismic impact on people’s lives that 9/11 had. In a lot of ways, that was the Pearl Harbor of that generation.

As horrific as 9/11 was for the whole country, its aftermath didn’t guarantee we would stop terrorists from flying into buildings. But we figured out a way to pass laws to the point of creating the Dept. of Homeland Security, a brand new agency.

We spent a lot of money doing it.

In this case, in order to make progress on gun violence, you don’t need to form a new federal agency, you don’t have to

spend a lot of new money – you just have to get the policy aligned with reality.

PPR: What drew you to support SB 1520?

SC: I have always tried to focus attention on the issue of domestic violence, going back to when I was in state government. It’s a problem that haunts this country. That’s one of the reasons why I sponsored the bill we passed in 2013, the Campus Save Act, which was incorporated into the larger Violence Against Women Act. This is another way to plug a loophole. We still have this terrible loophole when it comes to gun shows. And there’s a loophole on mental health – people with mental-health issues are still getting access to guns.

PPR: Over the course of the past number of years, you’ve gone from securing an A rating from the NRA to being honored by the Sandy Hook Promise program. How have your constituents and colleagues responded to your evolution on gun control?

SC: There will be some people who appreciate how I have voted since 2012, and others

who won’t – that’s just the nature of it; it will play out in two years. There are a lot of groups that can commit to come into your state to advertise and take you on.

PPR: Sounds like you’re getting ready for an onslaught.

SC: You have to prepare yourself. We have a Senate election now (between Republican incumbent Pat Toomey and Democratic challenger Katie McGinty) that’s almost impossible to comprehend – and I’ve been in a lot of campaigns – where there has been $80 million spent. Sixty million of that has been spent by outside groups – and that 60 is likely to grow closer to 80. Say it ends up being $70 million from these groups; the total will end up being close to $100 million when you factor in the candidates’ spending. Four years ago, in my re-election, the total outside spending was around $750,000 for each side. So that’s $1.5 million vs. $60-70 million in four years.

If someone did not understand Citizens United prior to this election, now they understand it.

phia. The seat was won by MARTINA WHITE in a low-turnout special election.

Republicans will usually come out in those selections. But Democrats come out in presidentials. MATT DARRAGH is running a very energetic campaign and he appears to have the Democratic establish-

ment firmly behind him. Several significant labor unions backed White the last time and will back her again, but the first race did not have the focus and exposure that a regular general election has.

Thus they will be called to account for not supporting the pro-labor Democratic candi-

date.

It remains to be seen if operatives move underneath the radar and by utilizing proxies to support White. This is an ancient tactic used in Philadelphia politics and particularly in Northeast Philadelphia. But everybody likes to be with the winner, and if Darragh gets

himself in position to win, the bandwagon-jumpers may quickly be drawn to him. This is particularly true if normal Republicans who are abandoning Trump stay home or decide to vote Democrat. After all, Rep. White’s positions on immigration line up precisely with Donald Trump.

Lawmaker Stephen SWEENEY won’t run for governor. The Ironworkers Union leader was eased out by North Jersey pols. The best governor served twice as Acting GUV – and was never elected – Gov. CODY…. SAD also to report the passing of Dave ARMSTRONG of East Falls. Dave was part of the Navy’s China liberation in WWII, and met his wife there, where she had fled from Russian Communism. Dave worked to provide a welcome to all visiting military vessels to our port. I was

honored to work with him on his committee.

Two members of the School Reform Commission resigned.

WHY NOT ALL of them? It could be easier to reform the SCHOOL BOARD. Bill GREEN has ANOTHER legal action against Gov. WOLF. Gov. Wolf: Move ahead and name a SRC Chairman! Let’s give school kids our attention – outside the courtroom!...

Hats off to the Intelligencer, which wanted to know why Act 53, which allows patients to get court-ordered drug treat-

ment for minors aged 12-18, has languished unused – for 20 years?

Jurists continue to have concern over the CJC elevators. Maybe the Prez JUDGE should place two judges on a commission for a FIRM DETERMINATION as to their safety?.. .How about that great mock trial by Judge Patrick DUGAN, with the Brits on trial for the Irish Potato FAMINE! During the Famine there was plenty of food to eat, despite a crop of ruined potatoes – but the Brits

EXPORTED it. It was not a famine, but a STARVATION instead.

HATS OFF to those who asked Federal Judge Edwardo RUBRENO to grant class action in seeking return of all seized property by the FORFEITURE PROGRAM and return it to their owners.

legislation like a 2009 bill to allow firearms in checked baggage on Amtrak trains, Casey’s stance on gun control was forever changed by the mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Conn., in December 2012, and his conviction that the status quo on firearms legislation had become unacceptable.

Since Sandy Hook, Casey has backed every major proposal aimed at combatting gun violence. He sat down to talk about the future of gun control and how his stance might impact his re-election chances.

Phila. Public Record: It’s been almost four years since the tragic events at Sandy Hook caused you to change your position on gun control legislation. What have you learned since then about what is – and isn’t – possible to achieve on the issue?

Sen. Casey: It’s hard to be categorical about it. There are some areas where there are at least the beginnings of a consensus: For example, it’s difficult for anyone to argue that if someone has been judged to be either a terrorist – or we suspect

The Public Record • October 13, 2016

by Greg Salisbury The untouched takeout coffee cup perched on the conference table of the Pennsylvania Senate Democratic Campaign Committee’s Center City headquarters is the only visible indication of how long US Sen. Bob Casey’s day has been. The commonwealth’s senior senator, green tie still firmly knotted in place, has been crisscrossing the region to drum up support for SB 1520, the Protecting Domestic Violence & Stalking Victims Act. According to the bill’s summary, it “would protect victims of stalking by prohibiting their stalkers from obtaining and possessing firearms if they are convicted of stalking or under a restraining order related to stalking.” Casey’s support of this bill comes just months after he introduced gun-control legislation of his own in response to the June mass shooting at Pulse nightclub in Orlando, and is the latest example of his startling transformation on the issue.

A longtime gun-rights supporter who was viewed favorably by the National Rifle Association for his support of

as undoing the process. In other words, you cannot annul your bankruptcy filing like you might annul a marriage.

When you file your bankruptcy petition, a public record is created about your filing. At a minimum, your name and the last four digits of your Social Security number will be associated with a bankruptcy case number. This bankruptcy case filing will be picked up by one or more of the credit bureaus and under federal law, your bankruptcy case number will remain on your credit profile for up to 10 years.

If you file bankruptcy and change your mind, it may be possible to dismiss your case or

The subject of this conversation is Nancy O’Dell, Bush’s co-anchor on “Access.” My guess is that upon hearing this tape, she’ll smack the bejesus out of him for not defending her honor. NBC has already suspended Bush, host of the network’s 9 a.m. edition of the “Today” show indefinitely, replacing him with meteorologist Al Roker. To see just how ironic that is, Google “Al Roker+mojito+Ryan Lochte.”

“I moved on her, and I failed. I’ll admit it,” Trump says in the tape. “I did try and f#@& her. She was married.

And I moved on her very heavily. In fact, I took her out furniture shopping. She wanted to get some furniture. I said, ‘I’ll show you where they have some nice furniture.’”

Because this is 2016, and because it has to, Trump continued.

“I moved on her like a bitch,

point, Trump held a Facebook live press conference with three women who had accused Clinton, Bill, not Hillary, of sexual assault and harassment. He then tried to sit them in the family box so that they could be used to intimidate his opponent.

It was then when I noticed Bill Clinton was starting to go from Statesman to Southern Boy. I think it was the Extreme Side-Eye he was giving his wife’s opponent.

I’m sure there are days in which Hillary Clinton thinks staying with Bill after the whole Monica Lewinsky thing wasn’t such a good move.

But by doing this, Trump shows maybe Hillary’s right when she said on Sunday night, “I may have disagreed with past Republican nominees, but I have never questioned their fitness to serve. Donald Trump is different.”

If Trump keeps trying to use Bill Clinton to come at his wife, it may cease to be an issue.

I mean, hey, this campaign has had everything but a good, old fashioned, Southern buttwhupping … why not?

by Michael A. Cibik, Esq. American Bankruptcy Board Certified Question: Can you cancel or annul your bankruptcy filing?

Answer: The short answer to this question is no, you cannot cancel your bankruptcy filing and somehow undo the process.

However, in extremely rare situations you can attempt to annul your bankruptcy. In 35 years and filing over 15,000 bankruptcies for clients, I have been able to annul just (1) bankruptcy.

You may be able to dismiss your case, or your case may be dismissed by the court, but a dismissal is not the same thing

allow your case to be dismissed, but, again, a dismissal does not remove the evidence of your filing from the public record or from your credit report.

Your ability to voluntarily dismiss your bankruptcy case will depend on whether you filed a Chapter 7 or 13. As a general rule, the Bankruptcy Code allows you to voluntarily dismiss your Chapter 13, although you should never do so without the benefit of counsel.

You cannot voluntarily dismiss Chapter 7 without specific approval of the judge in your case and if you schedule non-exempt assets (or if the trustee suspects you have non-exempt assets), you may be forced to remain in your bankruptcy case even if you want out.

Next Week’s Question: Should you try to keep your home when you file bankruptcy?

but I couldn’t get there,” he said. “And she was married.

Then all of a sudden, I see her, she’s now got the big phony tits and everything. She’s totally changed her look.”

Now I could go on with the whole sexual-assault aspect of the tape, the part in which Trump talks about such things as forced kisses, grabbing women in places that you just shouldn’t grab, and how being famous entitles you to commit these acts of sexual assault, but I’m pretty sure my editor would then ask himself, “Is this woman trying to kill me?! I’m going to have to do enough explaining thanks to the quotes she did use!”

When this bit of bro-tasticness hit the streets, Trump, who tends to get into trouble when he’s on social media late at night, made a tape apologizing for what he said. Or at least, it was what constitutes an apology for him.

But toward the end of the tape, Trump said Clinton, Bill, not Hillary, had actually done worse to women with the aid of his wife. To exacerbate this

On a more positive note, Toomey drafted legislation that would criminalize the alltoo-common “Pass the Trash” policies of our schools. School administrators in many cases knowingly offer sexual predators the option of moving to other schools with recommendations or facing sanctions.

What mother does not like this legislation?

was demeaning. She called an Arkansas state employee that Bill propositioned – trailer trash. When I first heard this comment, I was not sure if she was speaking of the woman or her husband, who came from humble beginnings.

Making snide comments about the other women was disgusting to me even if all of the episodes were uncoerced.

At first I though it was consistent with the true 1950s female mentality to blame the other woman rather than the person who had actually taken a vow to honor one’s marriage. But it was more than that.

She was, in my opinion and that of Clinton insiders, engaged in political damage control at the expense of vulnerable women.

F said, “What really turned me off was what I call secret police. When she [ Clinton] hired this fleet of detectives to go around examining all of the women who had been identified with . Not for the purpose of divorcing ; not for the purpose of getting him to stop; but for the purpose of developing blackmail material on these women to cow them into silence. That had a Nixonian quality to it that I hold against her, and I continue to.”

ald Trump’s voice in the background criticizing someone for being fat? He was not talking about a little girl, but a Miss Universe who gained 55 lb. after being crowned. Part of her deal was to be the glamorous representative of the pageant for a year. Frankly, I think beauty pageants are stupid, but this woman signed on and did not fulfill what was expected of her. If you do not like beauty pageants, then let’s start talent pageants or knowledge pageants. Oh, that’s right, we already have the “Voice” and “Jeopardy.”

As an aside, 55 lb. overweight for most women is unhealthy – just ask your doctor.

Donald’s lack of verbal impulse control does not help him. His latest idiocy was being caught on tape (11 years ago) saying that he would fondle woman along with other demeaning comments about women. Trump apologized for his fondling comments and said he never acted on those words – unlike the spouse of his opponent, Bill Clinton, who never said similar words but has been reputed to sexually harass women.

I realize Bill’s actions are not Hillary’s. However, the horrible things she said about Bill’s paramours and victims
