  1. 2002 - Putnam County, NY puts up small monument in park as a memorial to the 8 county residents that were killed in 9/11. The monument also includes a small piece of steel from the World Trade Center. Google Street View 2015 - State Department of Transportation replaces the traffic signal at the intersection, and decides to place the new traffic signal pole inside the park (land that they do not own) and 6 inches away from the monument, and tears up all the grass and brick walls around the monument: http://www.lohud.com/story/news/2015/09/10/traffic-light-carmel-sept-11th-memorial/71978132/

  4. So basically, you called a stranger to come over to your house and mount your wall.
  5. More updates: A Tennessee judge is refusing to grant a divorce between a man a woman. http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2015/09/04/tenn-judge-refuses-to-grant-straight-couple-a-divorce-because-of-gay-marriage/ The judge's legal opinion is basically this: Tennessee previously had laws regarding marriage (between one man and one woman). These laws were rendered obsolete by the Supreme Court decision. With the Supreme Court decision, the Federal Government has now "set the law" regarding marriage and states can't have their own marriage laws. Tennessee currently has laws regarding divorce, but divorce laws vary from state to state. For example, in South Dakota, a marriage partner cannot be forced to grant a divorce from their other partner, even if the other partner has no interest in getting back together; while in California, a person can get a divorce in this matter. Since the Supreme Court has now "set the law" regarding marriage, the Federal Government now has to "set the law" regarding "what is not a marriage".

  16. Every time I hear about the wall issue along the Canadian border, I always think of the issues that they are having at the Vermont border between Stanstead, QC and Beebe Plain, VT.

On the right side is American Customs (brick building). The road going down the center is Canusa Street (Rue Canusa). The international border is the right (south) curbline of the road. If you scroll down the street, the right-side houses are located in the US. People who live there have to go through both customs every day just to leave/enter their driveways.
