Taylor bill would protect consumers 

by limiting electric rate hikes 

In a move to limit future rate 

increases, State Rep. John Taylor (R- 

177) has cosponsored legislation to 

prevent electric companies from 

unfairly squeezing consumers when 

state-imposed rate caps are 

removed next year. 

“Many consumers are unaware 

that electric companies have been 

restrained from raising rates as high 

as they would like by a 12-year-old 

regulation that is about to end,” 

Taylor said. “That could cause a 

spike in electric rates that many 

customers will find intolerable.” 

In 1997, the state, in a move to 

restrain electric companies from 

forcing excessive rate hikes on 

consumers, placed temporary caps 

on how high the state’s electric 

companies can increase their rates. 

But these restrictions will be lifted 

in 2010. That means families could 

see rate spikes of 30 percent of 

more. 

The bipartisan bill, introduced by 

Democrat State Rep. Keith McCall 

and cosponsored by Taylor, would 

require that each electric company 

offer consumers and small 

businesses the option to phase in 

the rate hike over three years. The 

Taylor plan would limit the increases 

to no more than 15 percent a year. 

To further ease the burden, the bill 

would also offer consumers the 

voluntary option to begin the phasein 

period earlier. In this case,

customers would earn 6 percent on 

whatever they pay the electric 

company in advance and that 

amount would be deducted from 

their bill when the rate increases 

kick in. 

“We applied the rate increases to 

prevent electric companies from 

placing an undue burden on 

consumers, particularly those with 

limited incomes,” Taylor said. “We 

cannot undermine this by allowing 

these same utility companies to 

force unreasonably high rate hikes 

on people who will be crippled 

financially if we do not offer an 

alternative.”

Tartaglione Urges Walking 

at Work! 

With the weather beginning to 

cooperate, state Sen. Christine M. 

Tartaglione is urging workers to skip 

the lines at the cafeteria and take a 

walk during breaks from work. 

Tartaglione co-sponsored a Senate 

Resolution designating April 8 as 

“Start! Walking at Work Day” in 

Pennsylvania. 

In addition to increased life 

expectancy, regular walking has 

many proven benefits for an 

individual’s overall health,” she said. 

“Walking can lower both bad 

cholesterol and high blood pressure,

and can reduce the risk of stroke.” 

The resolution is part of 

Tartaglione’s continued support for 

the American Heart Association and 

their attempts to reduce the 

staggering impact of heart disease. 

“Each year 1.26 million Americans 

suffer a new or recurrent coronary 

attack,” she said. “Cardiovascular 

disease is the nation’s leading 

cause of death with direct and 

indirect costs estimated to be 

$475.3 billion in 2009. More 

physical activity can help improve 

these statistics.”

Angry Over Another Stolen 

Recycling Bucket! 

I am a resident on the 3900 block 

of L Street, since I’ve lived here my 

recycling bin has been stolen twice. 

After the first theft I put holes in my 

can, wrote my address on it, and tied 

it off to my railing, however; after a 

recent night out for pick up, 

someone (and I and you know who 

you are!) stole my recycling can, and 

replaced my address with their own. 

To some people this may not 

seem like a big deal, but those 

Recycling bins are for the purpose 

of helping the earth, keeping this 

place we live in a better place, and 

the gall of someone to steal 

something meant for this purpose 

seems even more horrid. We are all 

trying to do are part, but rather then 

steal other people’s source of 

Recycling, why not go get your 

own!!!

Great American Cleanup of Pennsylvania runs now through May 31st 

SPRING CLEAN PA! - Great 

American Cleanup of Pennsylvania 

from March 1 – May 31. 

During the annual spring cleaning 

of homes and yards, it’s time to also 

clean up Pennsylvania! It may seem 

hard to muster the energy or 

enthusiasm for volunteer work in 

these turbulent times. However, 

spending a few hours with friends 

and neighbors to clean-up and 

green-up our communities is exactly 

what the doctor ordered! 

Clearing our sidewalks of litter, 

installing new public gardens, or 

planting trees along a stream or 

park provides a sense of 

accomplishment and re-establishes 

community pride and responsibility. 

In addition, state and local 

governments are dealing with a 

severe shortage of resources so your 

time and energy in the 2009 Great 

American Cleanup of Pennsylvania 

is needed more than ever! 

For the past five years more than 

775,000 Pennsylvanians have 

helped “Keep Pennsylvania 

Beautiful” by participating in the 

Great American Cleanup of 

Pennsylvania (GAC of PA). These 

civic volunteers donated more than 

2.3 million hours of their time 

picking up litter and trash; planting 

trees, shrubs and flowers; restoring 

community and state parks; 

cleaning illegal dumps from 

forestlands, and waterways; and 

conducting workshop and learning 

activities for youth. 

Sponsors include Keep America 

Beautiful, Inc., organizers of the 

nationwide “Great American 

Cleanup”, four Pennsylvania state 

agencies, a number of state and 

local businesses and civic groups. 

These sponsors bring a wealth of 

resource to participating communities 

and organizations. 

Through Keep America Beautiful’s 

efforts, Pennsylvania has received 

more 2.5 million trash bags from 

the Glad Corporation over the past 

five years. The PA Department of 

Transportation distributes these 

Glad bags to everyone who registers 

an event as part of the GAC of PA. 

The Pennsylvania Department of 

Environmental Protection negotiates 

with disposal facilities to accept, 

without fee, the litter and trash 

picked during the two week “Pick It 

Up PA Days” - this year designated 

from April 25 to May 9. The 

Pennsylvania Department of Conservation 

and Natural Resources 

works with groups in cleaning state 

parks. PA DCNR also provides 

information and advice on planting 

trees and community gardens. The 

Pennsylvania Department of 

Community and Economic Development 

helps participating Main 

Street and Elm Street communities. 

The Pennsylvania Food Merchants 

Association, Pennsylvania Beverage 

Association, Pennsylvania 

Landscape and Nursery 

Association, Pennsylvania Waste 

Industry Association, Mid-Atlantic 

AAA, and the Steel Recycling 

Institute all donate time and 

resources to the annual Great 

American Cleanup of Pennsylvania.

Prayers Needed for Mike 

People have been asking me how 

my Grandson Michael Mayer is 

doing. Last year a Benefit was held 

for Michael, who is suffering from 

Lymphonic Leukemia. 

People came to the Benefit and it 

was a huge success. He was so 

grateful. Michael was in remission 

for awhile, but now the cancer is 

back and he is not doing well. 

He is going to have a Bone Marrow 

transplant this coming week and his 

sister is the donor. He will have large 

doses of chemo and radiation. He 

will be in the University of PA 

Hospital for 6 weeks. 

Here I am again asking my Juniata 

family to please pray for Mike. He 

just celebrated his 40 th Birthday. 

Prayer is a great healer and I pray 

he will be ok. He has a beautiful wife 

Christine, and a daughter Halie. 

Please remember him in your 

prayers. He is a wonderful young 

man who deserves to live and enjoy 

a life with his family. My heart aches 

to see him suffer. As always, I will 

leave him in God’s hands. 

This family had its share of 

suffering. As you know, my son 

David is also battling cancer. Both 

these wonderful young men need 

our prayers and all the people who 

suffer from this horrible disease 

called cancer. May a merciful God 

help them through this very trying 

time and may they be healed. I want 

to thank you for your concern and 

your prayers. 

God Bless all who suffer from all 

illnesses.

Chips of the Cross 

Last Sunday I ended my sermon 

about suffering by showing a picture 

of a beautiful sunset with a large 

cross silhouetted to one side. On the 

screen was a quote by Joseph 

Church: “Sufferings are but as little 

chips of the Cross.” I had talked 

about God’s grace and the reasons 

why we should be willing to suffer 

for Christ. Those are beautiful things 

to talk about. 

The cross was an ugly thing, 

though. The chips of suffering that 

God lets fall into our lives are ugly, 

too, but God wants the words we say 

in church to mirror the life we live 

on the street. He sent some chips 

of the cross into our lives about an 

hour later. Derick (an adult son of 

mine and one of the pastors here at 

Bethel) stopped by Wawa after 

church with Bill, an older man who 

recently found Christ and began 

attending our church. Derick left the 

store first. After he unlocked his car, 

he looked back and saw Bill on the 

pavement and three young men 

beating him up. Derick ran back, 

yelling at them, expecting them to 

scatter. Instead, the men left Bill 

lying there and went after Derick. 

They slugged him in the face several 

times and then ran off, leaving 

Derick staggering and bloodsplattered. 

You can probably imagine that 

desperate scene at Wawa: the thugs 

attacking, the blood, and the frantic 

calls to the police. That all happened 

in our neighborhood, at a store we 

go to often. Can you imagine the 

cross, though Much more injustice, 

more blood, more suffering than we 

will ever see in our neighborhood. 

Anytime we suffer it should remind 

us of the much bigger suffering that 

Jesus endured on Good Friday over 

Host Your Next Party 

in our Banquet Hall 

JUNIATA 

GOLF 

CLUB 

2,000 years ago. “For consider 

[Christ] who has endured such 

hostility by sinners against Himself, 

so that you will not grow weary and 

lose heart” (Hebrews 12:3). “But we 

do see Him who was made for a little 

while lower than the angels, namely, 

Jesus, because of the suffering of 

death crowned with glory and honor, 

so that by the grace of God He might 

taste death for everyone” (Hebrews 

2:9). Jesus was God. He didn’t have 

to suffer and die. He volunteered to 

do it for us. 

You can imagine my feelings as I 

raced through the neighborhood 

looking for Derick. He’d called me 

first, but in the stress of the moment 

didn’t tell me (or I didn’t hear) where 

the beating had happened. I went 

several places before I found the 

ambulance and the police cars, the 

scene of the crime. Can you imagine 

my emotions It was almost half an 

hour before I could find out how 

badly Derick had been hurt. I was 

torn with grief and love. Can you 

imagine how God felt about His 

Son’s suffering for us Jesus, His 

Son, who had never wronged 

anyone, beaten and bruised and 

bloody, dying in agony for the 

wrongs we have done. God was also 

torn with grief, but His love for us 

was greater. He let the world’s 

greatest injustice happen on Good 

Friday to Himself.

Can you imagine how Bill felt 

When we first saw him standing 

beside the police car, he was 

fighting tears. We told him how 

thankful we were that he was 

unhurt, but he pointed to Derick’s 

bloody face and said in a choked 

voice, “That would have been me if 

it hadn’t been for Derick.” This 

Easter season, those of us who 

know Jesus Christ as Savior point to 

a bloody cross and say, “That should 

have been me. I deserved God’s 

punishment for my sin, but Jesus 

stepped in and took it for me.” 

I’m so glad the cross isn’t the end 

of the story. After Good Friday came 

Easter Sunday—the resurrection, the 

beginning of the end of death 

forever. The death of Jesus made a 

way for those who accept His 

sacrifice to live forever with Him. My 

story, too, had a very good ending. 

Quick action by the police and 

witnesses helped them capture all 

three criminals. The doctor stitched 

up Derick’s face, and his black eye 

is healing. Bill was unhurt, and the 

police found and returned his money 

that the thieves had stolen. 

Will your life have a good ending 

No, I’m not talking about how you 

will die. I’m talking about what will 

happen afterwards. Have you 

accepted Christ’s sacrifice Does 

the Easter message fill your heart 

with grateful joy “He [God the 

Father] made [Jesus] who knew no 

sin to be sin on our behalf, so that 

we might become the righteousness 

of God in Him” (2 Corinthians 5:21).

“Bank On Philadelphia” Initiative Attempts to Reach 

80,000 Unbanked Philadelphians to Open a Bank Account 

City Controller Alan Butkovitz 

joined with community partners and 

financial institutions last week to 

kick off Bank on Philadelphia’s 

efforts to reach 80,000 unbanked 

Philadelphians. The program is 

using Financial Literacy month to 

bring awareness to residents. 

The event, which took place at 

Esperanza in North Philadelphia, 

demonstrated Bank on Philadelphia’s 

community outreach progress 

as more than 160 organizations 

around the City have joined 

the City Controller’s initiative to help 

unbanked Philadelphians. 

“Providing financial assistance 

and education to low-to-moderate 

income families is a worthwhile 

initiative that can help change lives 

for the better,” said Butkovitz. 

“Today would not have been 

possible without the hard work and 

support of so many local residents, 

civic and community based groups, 

as well as our corporate bank 

sponsors.” 

Community partners are working 

with nine financial institutions, 

including more than 100 branches 

around Philadelphia, to provide 

financial education and banking 

options to citizens without bank 

accounts of any kind. Organizations 

are distributing thousands of 

community referral cards as a tool 

to help the unbanked get into a 

financial institution and open a bank 

account. 

“Not having a bank account 

hinders peoples’ ability to set 

financial goals such as starting a

children’s education, as well as the 

usual tasks of paying and managing 

bills,” said Teresa Dooley, Sr. 

Director, Employment and Training 

for Philadelphia Workforce 

Development Corporation. 

“In communities such as 

Kensington, check-cashing stores 

that charge high fees to cash checks 

severely outnumber more traditional 

banks,” said Tony Alvarez, Director 

of School of Community Relations 

at the Mariana Bracetti Academy. 

“The opportunity to provide financial 

education and increase access and 

awareness is priceless.” 

As part of Philadelphia’s kick off 

into communities and “Financial 

Literacy Month,” a financial literacy 

course was led by City Controller 

Butkovitz and an instructor from the 

Philadelphia Workforce Development 

Corporation. Community 

residents and participants of 

Esperanza’s educational programs 

attended the financial course. 

Community partners and financial 

institutions will be providing 

financial literacy courses throughout 

April and as well as continuing their 

educational efforts throughout the 

year as part of Bank on 

Philadelphia’s community outreach 

initiative. 

“We are excited to see Philadelphia’s 

banks and credit unions step 

up and reach out to the unbanked 

and underserved in the City,” said 

Holly Chase, Financial Education 

Specialist at the Pennsylvania Office 

of Financial Education. “Bank on 

Philadelphia can become a model

possibilities of expanding the 

concept to other areas of the

“Bank on Philadelphia is a 

grassroots effort dedicated to 

developing outreach strategies and 

materials to help fellow Philadelphians 

improve their lives by

optimistic that our efforts will have

many people in Philadelphia.”

24th District Police Crime Slate 

If you know the whereabouts of any of the 24th District’s Top Ten Most Wanted, or 

have any information regarding them, contact Officer Willis at 

the 24th District, 215-685-9963 

S.A.V.E. Program Helps 

Reduce Rate of Stolen Cars 

The 24 th District, in an effort to 

reduce stolen autos, is offering the 

Stolen Auto Verification Effort 

(S.A.V.E.) to citizens living in the 24 th 

District. 

By participating in this program, 

the owner of the vehicle is stating 

to the Philadelphia Police Department 

that their vehicle is not usually 

operated between the hours of 12 

midnight and 6:00 AM. If the police 

should observe a person operating 

the vehicle during the above hours, 

they will have reasonable suspicion 

to believe that the person operating 

the vehicle is doing so without the 

owner’s permission. In this instance, 

the police will conduct an 

investigation by STOPPING the 

vehicle to check for ownership. If 

the vehicle is loaned to someone 

other than the owner it is the 

owner’s responsibility to inform the 

driver of this fact. 

The S.A.V.E. program is a program 

that consists of two (2) stickers that 

resemble police emblems with a set 

of numbers listed below. The 

stickers are placed on both sides of 

the rear windows of the vehicle. We 

then enter your information into the 

police system. With the numbers 

listed, the officer that stops the 

vehicle will read the number over 

Police Radio, who will in turn be able 

to notify the owner and ask if the 

person driving the vehicle has 

permission to do so. 

To enroll in the program the owner 

must present proof of ownership, 

insurance and a valid driver’s 

license at the 24 th Police District 

3901 Whitaker Ave., and is 

available 24 hours a day. Any 

questions or concerns, please 

contact P/O Sharon Jonas #1209, 

Crime Prevention Officer, 24 th 

District at #215-685-9963. 

Please help the 24 th District 

reduce stolen autos by enrolling your

“All Shook Up” on Stage at Cardinal Dougherty 

In Cardinal Dougherty High 

School’s Spring Musical Play, ‘ALL 

SHOOK UP’, a dreary town is 

brought to life by the arrival of a 

motorcycle stranger who teaches 

the town about love and rock and 

roll music. The show is set in the mid 

1950’s and features the familiar 

music of Elvis Presley. This year’s 

show stars seniors Chinh Pham, 

Katy Stein, and Kevin Pires, with 

help from juniors, Eric Gendaszek, 

Bree Green, Mallory Smith, and 

sophomore, Tim Brubaker, and 

freshman, Kanisha Small. 

Throughout each of the three 

performances, the audiences 

reacted enthusiastically to the 

effective musical renditions, the 

entertaining choreographed dances, 

and the narrative events. The stagecrew 

performed very capably which 

added to the enjoyable entertainment. 

Spontaneous, emotionally 

aroused applause punctuated 

the show and, at the end, all 

excitedly clapped and energetically 

commented on the outstanding 

performance. Everyone left with a 

happy satisfaction that they had 

chosen to attend the performance. 

Chinh, portraying Chad, the rover, joins Katy, the female mechanic, and 

the rest of the cast on stage at that time, in singing Burning Love.

Flopping, Swapping, Deriving, Lying ... and the Con 

by Oneyedjack 

Now most of us ordinary folks out 

here in the neighborhood know that 

we can’t eat what we haven’t got 

and we can’t spend what we don’t 

have. We work, know how to budget 

and generally try to live within our 

means…that is normally how it is 

supposed to work. 

You remember I talked last week 

about greed, cons and marks; also 

the fact that “there ain’t no such 

thing as a free lunch.” Of course, I 

should have amended that a little 

to state that there ain’t no such 

thing as a free lunch for us ordinary 

folks. For the fat cat financial 

bloodsuckers that put us in the 

mess we’re in right now…there is 

always a free lunch; and we and our 

children and grandchildren will pay 

for it for generations. 

That free lunch for the 

bloodsuckers is ongoing right now 

in the form of bailouts, bonuses and 

most importantly…sympathetic 

watchdogs running the show at the 

Treasury Department. 

Last week I gave you a few names 

and some background on those 

names, I have another one for 

you…Neil Wolin. Mr. Wolin was just 

named by President Obama to be 

the number two guy at the Treasury. 

So what, you say Well, remember 

what I said last week about greed 

Especially greed as viewed by these 

folks…”greed is the glue that binds 

us together.” 

Do you know a child who has 

outgrown their personal book 

collection and would be willing to 

donate some of it to the Wyoming 

Avenue Library 

The library would be glad to 

receive any of the following popular 

children’s series in good condition: 

Captain Underpants, Ricky Ricotta’s 

Mighty Robot, Amelia Bedelia, Junie 

B. Jones, Magic Treehouse, Dr. 

K-beat 

The Kensington Beat 

Okay, follow along, like I’ve 

mentioned many times before I’m 

not an economist here, but I’m a 

street kid and I know a con when I 

see one. Wolin is the Division 

Manager of the Hartford Financial 

Services Group—just one more of 

the little piggy’s bellying up to the 

federal bailout trough. See, back in 

November last year Hartford 

purchased a Sanford, Fla., thrift — 

Federal Trust Bank — a move that 

allowed it to seek as much as $3.4 

billion in Wall Street bailout money. 

On Nov. 14, it applied to become a 

thrift holding company entitled to 

between $1.1 billion and $3.4 

billion in funds under the muchmaligned 

Troubled Asset Relief 

Program, or TARP. Isn’t that easy 

Wolin also served as the general 

counsel of the U.S. Department of 

the Treasury, a position for which he 

was confirmed by the U.S. Senate 

and appointed by President Clinton 

in November, 1999. As general 

counsel, Wolin was Chief architect 

(author) of the Gramm-Leach-Biley 

Act (GLBA) which allowed 

commercial and investment banks

to consolidate. For example, 

Citibank merged with Travelers 

Group, an insurance company, and 

in 1998 formed the conglomerate 

Citigroup, a corporation combining 

banking and insurance underwriting 

services under brands including 

Smith-Barney, Shearson, Primerica 

and Travelers Insurance Corporation 

… and on, and on, and on. 

All of these mergers begat what 

we’ve come to know as the financial 

services industry, which begat 

rampant greed, which begat 

meltdown, which is putting us all in 

the poorhouse. Are you with me so 

far The Gramm-Leach-Biley Act in 

effect negated all of the regulations 

put in effect back during the last 

great depression and threw wide 

open the doors to unfettered greed. 

Let me explain…You see before 

these bloodsuckers became 

unregulated they had to follow 

certain rules, with deregulation 

came no rules so they could con 

every sucker they came upon … 

that’s you and me. 

Example: Take AIG, now in the 

regulated days they could not do 

things like derivatives, credit swaps 

or flops or any of the other phrases 

and acronyms which we have all 

been hearing and reading about 

lately. But, enter the era of deregulation 

and these bloodsuckers 

could move worthless paper 

around—flops, swaps, deriving and 

lying—and make a fortune. (A 

fortune for them, a misfortune for 

us). Now, the politicians would—and 

did—tell us that “the industry is 

regulated, don’t worry.” To be 

honest, they weren’t completely 

prevaricating…once again, the AIG 

example. Before de-regulation 

AIG’s main claim to fame was 

insurance; after de-regulation they 

became a financial services 

company. With that new 

designation they had no regulation, 

no oversight by the feds or anyone 

else. However, they still did have an 

overseer from the feds because 

their insurance department was still 

regulated…this regulator had no 

oversight/jurisdiction over the 

financial services aspect of 

AIG…and we all know the rest of the 

story. 

So the upshot of all this is that the 

same damn foxes that raided the 

henhouse, are now placed in the 

position of guarding the henhouse, 

all the while our President keeps 

telling us “we’re gonna be all right.” 

There’s an ironic footnote to all of 

this; the other day President Obama 

told the CEO of GM to take a hike. 

The anvil the administration held 

over Rick Wagoner’s head was, “you 

gotta go, or no more bail out bucks.” 

Now, if this wasn’t so tragically 

stupid it would be funny. The auto 

industry has its many sins, but they 

sure as hell didn’t cause this 

financial meltdown we’re in…so why 

is Obama picking on them Union 

busting, perhaps 

So, financial industry causes the 

biggest global economic meltdown 

in history and they get trillions of 

dollars and the opportunity to guard 

the henhouse that they raided; auto 

industry, guilty of nothing more than 

stupidity in their creation of giant 

SUV’s and such…and they get kicked 

in the teeth…hmmmm. In the world 

of the con, this is known as the 

distraction—cons sometimes call it 

the Kansas City Shuffle—its how a 

good con works; it is also how 

politicians get the electorate to turn 

their attention away from the main 

plot and follow something else. 

“Three great forces rule the 

world; stupidity, fear and greed.”

More Than a Few Good Men! 

The Ritz Theatre, Oaklyn, N.J., just 

closed with a powerhouse drama “A 

Few Good Men” by Aaron Sorkin, 

based on the play of high-level 

military conspiracy as three lawyers 

from Jag have to defend two 

marines accused of murdering a 

fellow marine. The trial takes place 

at Gitmo Bay prison, Cuba. They 

uncover the real truth of a hazing 

order given by a superior officer 

called “code-red.” 

The cast couldn’t have been 

With John Blaker

Esther Flaster. I never saw a drama 

at the Ritz that held the attention of 

the audience. 

Opening April 24 and running 

through may 10 th the Ritz presents 

a musical fantasy “A Midsummer 

nights Dream.” 

They have taken this from their 

vault from a few years ago of past 

successes with an updated score, 

fairies, lovers, clowns and high 

royalty. It promises to fill your night 

with a magical madcap merriment 

and pandemonium. 

Opening on July 10 and running 

though August 8 th will be the 

musical “Aida,” the retelling of 

Verdi’s classic opera. A musical 

love triangle of loyalty and betrayal. 

The Disney blockbuster was written 

by was created by Tim Rice and 

Elton John. It’s the saga of three 

people forced to make choices that 

will change their lives after the 

course of history. Its score includes 

pop, stirring ballads and 

contemporary numbers that come 

to life with dramatic theatre.
