Samuel David Schoolfield put his family first
SAMUEL DAVID Schoolfield didn't hesitate to give his last dollar to any one of his children who needed it to pay for some activity or buy necessities. "He believed that his family was always first in his life," said his daughter, Janie L. Schoolfield. Sam held numerous jobs during his lifetime, sometimes working two at a time to support his family. He was a hard worker and his employers recognized his abilities with frequent promotions. He died Feb. 6 at the age of 80. He lived in Wynnefield. The seventh of 12 children, Sam was born in Pocomoke City, Md., to William Schoolfield and the former Estella Cropper. The family came to Philadelphia when he was a child and he attended Overbrook High School. He enlisted in the Navy as World War II was ending, and wound up serving in the South Pacific and California.
The Michael
My sister was playing Dr. Mario on the gameboy and I was playing with a laser pointer. I had forgotten how much fun it was to play with the laser pointer, because I played with it for quite a while. Things I did with the laser pointer: I spun around in the computer chair with the laser in hand making squiggles on the wall. Lifted the window shade to see how far I could shine the laser outside. Shined the laser on the gravel at the bottom of the fish aquarium. The fish actually tried to eat the red dot! Made cool laser light shows by shining the laser on different shiny surfaces. If you need something to do tonight find a laser pointer. .
COLUMN: Norman PD slow to react to car wreck
They aren't out to get you and all college kids. They are dealing with real emergencies on top of unimportant calls...not to mention they are under staffed. So, be courteous to the old man having a stroke, the young woman bleeding internally, or the 5 year old who hit her head while playing and has a head bleed and may never make it to 6... because when you call an ambulance for non-injury and non-emergency incidents, you take away an ambulance and medics that could save their lives. So with all do respect, stop pouting. Be thankful that there are men and women who can, will, and did respond. Scott M. Sauer - 02/21/08 10:41am Thats not the point. the point is that it took them 30 minutes to respond to an accident. Them being understaffed is not an excuse. that's not my problem.
Zumaya a California Wildfire Casualty
Detroit Tigers relief pitcher Joel Zumaya is going to be gone for at least half of 2008 after injuring his shoulder moving items in his Chula Vista, California home during last week's wildfires. ESPN.com reports Zumaya underwent shoulder surgery on his pitching shoulder in nearby San Diego and won't begin a new throwing program for at least four months. Zumaya may or may not be the first baseball player injured as a result of the wildfires which destroyed several thousand homes, but several players—including Hall of Famer Tony Gwynn and other Padres—were forced to evacuate their homes at the height of the blazes. The Poway home of former Atlanta Braves star David Justice was destroyed in one of the wildfires. This entry was posted on Thursday, November 1st, 2007 at 3:44 pm and is filed under Joel Zumaya, Catbird, Detroit Tigers.
District gives more answers on $25.8M proposal
Wellsville Central School District officials heard two years ago about $1 million in EXCEL (Expanding our Children's Education and Learning) Aid from the state and started looking into a capital project proposal. Through a building conditions survey, tours of facilities and many meetings with the Community Advisory Committee and the input of staff, architect and construction manager, the project grew into a $25.8 million proposal. It includes state building aid of 93 percent (for about 95 percent of the project) and the district can use $746,327 in EXCEL Aid. The local share will be about $2,269,509. The average annual tax impact from the 15 years of the project debt retirement on a $40,000 home would be $38 per year for a homeowner without a STAR exemption, $9 per year for someone with a STAR Program exemption and $0 per year for someone with a Senior STAR exemption.
