I have been contacted about 2 outstanding parking tickets. I have spoken with the collection agency to inform them that those tickets were paid and I gave them the confirmation number that the tickets were never delinquent. The person I spoke with didn't update their system with the confirmation numbers in order to follow up with you (on March 21, 2012) and they called me again today. I would like to email you the receipt that I received from your website when I paid. Below is a copy of the receipt:

I am trying to subscribe to all calendars (http://www.nationalnursesunited.org/) from Google Calendar, and I get a parsing error. Could you check the feed out and verify that it is in correct format? It could be that Google just cannot deal with some feature of the feed.

Nothing urgent, but I walk past the lawn at City Hall each day and see ways that it could be "greener".
- The crews mow at a very low height. If grass is mowed higher the blades shade the soil, keeping the roots cooler and more healthy. It also keeps sunlight from hitting the soil, which prevents weed seeds from germinating, which reduces the need for pesticides.
- The crews remove the clippings. Using a mulching mower returns the clippings to the lawn system, reducing the need for fertilizer. It's also less work to not have to empty the mower bag.
- The grass was mowed yesterday. Today (Friday 5/18) much of the lawn has a silvery color to it. If you look at the grass blades in these areas you'll see that the tips are shredded instead of being cleanly cut. This means that the mower blade is so dull that it's ripping rather than cutting. The shredded grass blades are more susceptible to disease than cleanly cut ones.
Just my 2 cents, thanks for listening,
Rich Pierce

Someone painted a penis in yellow on the back window of my 1998 Chevy Cavalier and wrote "Call me maybe 812-339-2260" in red paint on the side window. There were also yellow penises painted on the windows of two other cars. One was a Honda SUV and the other was a BMW SUV.
