Is 4:35 P.M. on the 24th and have noticed that for whatever reason, there is no Agenda on the website. So before anyone gets too upset, understand that the City does NOT have to do that. It has to send a copy to the Secretary of State and to post in the window by the front door. Anything beyond that is a "Courtesy", to the Community. By now, you should understand that the City is a bit short on that for us? It may still show of course? But it may be that we are to be punished for criticizing what is and is not going on?
Noticed an ad in the paper for "Hemp Gummies". They look and probably taste like the Gummy Bears you and your kids are used too? These however are a cure all for just about everything?
Not a doubt in my mind are going to end up with way too many kids and while stated can be purchased without a prescription. Now the Ad says are from Hemp versus the usual Pot. Now Hemp and the Pot most are familiar with are one and the same plant with one major exception. Hemp is said to have per the Ad, NO THC. I did a short check and found what is called "The Hemp Ministry". Is it really valid? I don't know but it matched the .3% allowed before qualifying as Pot. Here is their site info:
The Difference Between Hemp and Marijuana
Is it Chemical
Type Cannabis? Makeup Psychoactive? Cultivation Applications
Hemp Yes Low THC Requires minimal care. Automobiles, body care,
(< 0.3%) No Adaptable to grow in clothing, construction,
most climates. food, plastic, etc.
Grown in carefully Marijuana Yes High THC controlled Medical and recreational
(5%-35%) Yes atmosphere use
But here is another article on how Canada is calling it in that County:
5 Differences Between Hemp and Marijuana - Leaf Science
https://www.leafscience.com/2014/09/16/5-differences-hemp-marijuana
For example, countries like Canada have set the maximum THC content of hemp at 0.3%. Any cannabis with higher THC levels is considered marijuana instead. In comparison, medical marijuana produces anywhere between 5-20% THC on average, with prize strains tipping the scale at 25-30% THC.
So with this now hitting the Streets here per the Ad and I would bet in the local Pot Shoppes, you as a Parent have to decide what is acceptable or what might be a step in the wrong direction. Than of course, we have YOU who are going to use this and give to others?
I see where one who shall remain nameless has suddenly "re-found" the 2002 DEP report on the Johns Manville water supply sources. Okay, it is 16 years old and has what value? The site refers to several contaminants that were there in the day. AGAIN, up pops the PCE flume coming down from the Vienna Cleaners and the Busy Bee Cleaners. As usual, it is something that is going to poison us via Wells 7 & 8 by tomorrow if not sooner? The Plume for the 10th time is dissipating as it goes down onto the Park Site. In and of itself should be no problem as the time goes by. Actually may clean up the Ohio River some when it finally gets there? This is just her way of trying to get attention and do damage control yet again.
Those two old JM water wells are probably capped and hopefully filled in? I doubt that they were filled in, and could go back through the numerous Site Surveys from 1998 this way again, but nothing seemed to be an issue in any of those?
I would agree with Brenda that any water in those wells is probably contaminated. So what as long as they are not used and unless VUB lies also (and it does), there will be no water from the site used for human consumption. VUB piping has been brought down to the site for when the grand plans are unveiled and we are told what we get and where?
There will be continual contamination in those wells probably forever and forever due to the C8 that is coming down on us everyday, morning, noon and night. That of course seeps down into the ground and will go into any water that is stored anywhere until filtered.
It would have been a more mature thing to have had Brenda apologize to the City Residents for her so erroneously presented posting yesterday on the FOIA processes in WVDEP and Vienna. I don't care about her inferring I don't know what the Hell I am talking about. It is really important that one and all understand that a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), request is more than asking for something, being told no or fed a bunch of crap and than you go home and cry in your beer.. One has to be willing to go forward when they do not get what they ask for and are refused because a Governmental Entity does not want to provide the documents? I would suspect that the whole Vienna City Administration and probably DEP/ EPA know that Ms. Powell will along with most if not all of her BFFs will do nothing when denied information. Ms. Powell has flat said she would not go to Court and spend any money. So her and the rest of her BFFs FOIAs are toothless if ignored.
She has months back ridiculed me for all my FOIAs and the fact I have sued the City for not following the FOIA Law. A waste of money you say? No, because more than once even though I have had a case dismissed, the City begins to do what got it sued in the first place. The dismissal was just to protect Mr. Rapp/ City, not because I was wrong. In fact folks, yesterday, which I could not say anything about till after I picked up some documents from the City, but I will go over it more in a day or so. For me, it was a major development and victory in my ongoing battle with Vienna and the FOIA Law that the City sometimes is forced to obey.
I have decided that in order to try and protect the folks in the 10th District, I will hold my nose and vote for Mr. Azinger the Younger. While some of his positions scare the Hell out of me, he is a better choice for the average person in the District than Mr. Leach the Elder.
And by extension for Mr. Azinger the Elder versus the Mr. Leach the Younger. 'nuff said'.
