Christmas Cheer!

News-Press Holiday Fund..for Animals?

What was the original intent of the NewsPress Holiday Fund? It was a way to raise money for charity..for those less fortunate. This year, the News-Press wants the fund dollars to go to a Wildlife Rescue Program in Santa Ynez...they also included the Alpha Resource Center as a recipient perhaps to legitimize the calls for giving. Now, I got no problem with the Wildlife Rescue Center, but this seems a pretty sneaky way to get money and was no doubt suggested by Wendy McCaw, who likes animals a lot. The NewsPress Christmas Fund is no place to include McCaw's pet projects..a better, more needy recipient could be found..like poor kids! The Animal Rescue Team should seek donations elsewhere....
Laid Off? Don't take it standing up..stage a sit -in!
CHICAGO (Dec. 8) - Representatives of the company whose laid-off employees are staging a sit-in at the shuttered factory where they worked will meet Monday with union and bank officials, a congressman said.
Some 200 workers who abruptly lost their jobs last week have said they won't leave the Republic Windows and Doors plant until they get assurances they will receive their severance and vacation pay. Their demonstration has drawn support from President-elect Barack Obama and others. Speaking of Chicago..big publisher goes bankrupt!
