Governor's Budget

Wed Jun 24, 2009, 6:56 AM
In what I would call a truly COWARDLY move, Governor Ted Strickland announced FRIDAY at 4PM that he was going to reduce the Ohio Public Library Fund by 52% and when is this going to occur? July 1! That's right, he gave the people ELEVEN days notice to voice their discontent with something that would quite obviously be considered an unpopular choice, and would likely have flooded his office with unwelcome mail from y'know...the people he's governing!

This would cause some libraries to drastically reduce their hours, and some to close down entirely. For all you college students this would have an effect on OhioLINK as well.


This is the same governor that is planning for a rail system costing 400 million to build and 100 million dollars annually. Which do you think is more important, being able to travel between Dayton and Cleveland by train? Or maybe the Educational, Social, and Cultural uses of 70% of the libraries in OHIO?

PLEASE READ THIS WHOLE POST. IT'S SO DANG TRUE* 1. At least 2 people in this world love you so much they would die for you. 2. At least 15 people in this world love you in some way. 3. The only reason anyone would ever hate you is because they want to be just like you. 4. A smile from you can bring happiness to anyone, even if they don't like you. 5. Every night, SOMEONE thinks about you before they go to sleep. 6. You mean the world to someone. 7. If not for you, someone may not be living. 8. You are special and unique. 9. Someone that you don't even know exists loves you. 10. When you make the biggest mistake ever, something good comes from it. 11. When you think the world has turned its back on you, take a look: you most likely turned your back on the world. 12. When you think you have no chance of getting what you want, you probably won't get it, but if you believe in yourself, probably, sooner or later, you will get it. 13. Always remember the compliments you received. Forget about the rude remarks. 14. Always tell someone how you feel about them; you will feel much better when they know. 15. If you have a great friend, take the time to let them know that they are great. Add this as a comment to ten of your friends tonight and at midnight your true love will find you. Something good will happen to you at 2:25 tomorrow. Get ready for the biggest shock of your life. Whoever breaks this chain letter will be cursed with 10 relationship problems for the next ten years tag ur it!! this is so scary!!! send this to 15 ppl in the next 143 min. and then press F6 and your crushes name will appear in big letters!! it is so scary because it works

Alex, nice to see your work in print finally. My favorite is the one of the girl, don't see it in your gallery here at DeviantArt. Too bad you didn't print any of your series that Floro had told us about, did they sensor you at Antonelli?! Keep up the good work!
:iconadprice:
Nah the school didn't censor me, as I had a good chunk of it up last year, however they did Limit me to three prints, and I simply could not see trying to go through 100+ images and picking one to three of my favorites..I could have filled the room with those images had I been given the okay to do so. I am attempting to get a gallery show going at the moment and when I have the dates and the location for them, they will be posted here.
:iconbrittonfraley:
Hey Alex, are you going to have any of your work on display at the student photography show June 10? Floro told us about the upcoming show last night...
:iconnakuru-nebelung:
