I had a much different experience than Ms. Herman of Ardmore-Merion-Wynnewood Patch . as did Philadelphia Inquirer's Edward Sozanski. and Inquirer's Stephen Salisbury.  The Van Gogh exhibit was breathtaking and memorable. Please do not miss it. My friend,dr. bob and his son, not great art enthusiasts, found the whole experience inspirational, as did I.

As a friend says, "A whole other way in which this project is a failure and a travesty that I hadn't even been aware of!"

And though there isn't really an opposing side, administrators in Harrisburg haven't budged. Last month, library patrons and champions had a meeting with state library official Alice Lubrecht, which multiple participants called "appalling." Heim says, "We asked if she was going to take back our concerns and she told us: 'There's no point. It's a done deal.' "

Dan Simpson, a leader in the blind community and a devoted library patron for half a century, says: "This has been so frustrating as a citizen. You believe you have a voice in government. You raise serious questions and pretty significant arguments against the plan, and they don't listen. It's exasperating. No wonder people are cynical."

Gee Doug Cleland, for all the money you make, one would think you could get the grass cut on Lower Merion's own properties. But heck, you can't repair the potholes and ridges in the roads, so why would we expect anything different? I suggested before that Jane Dellheim cut the grass with her sharp tongue but I guess she was busy.

The amusing thing is if Lower Merion lived in another municipality they might have received a citation for a messy property by now.

The good thing is all the guests to Ardmore tomorrow for Clover Market can see what a First Class Township is really all about!!

A small canister leaking a chlorine-like substance fell off a pickup truck, resulting in total shutdown of the intersection of Lancaster Avenue and Woodside Road, with all Lancaster Avenue traffic blocked in both directions.

Corruption:

"Corrupt" and "Corruptor" redirect here. For other uses, see Corrupt (disambiguation) and Corruptor (disambiguation).

"Corrupted" and "Corruptors" redirect here. For the Japanese doom metal band, see Corrupted (band). For the American television series, see Target: The Corruptors!.

In philosophical, theological, or moral discussions, corruption is spiritual or moral impurity or deviation from an ideal. In economy, corruption is payment for services or material which the recipient is not due, under law. This may be called bribery, kickback, or, in the Middle East, baksheesh. In government it is when an elected representative makes decisions that are influenced by vested interest rather than their own personal or party ideological beliefs.
