Giambrone Admits To Inappropriate Relationship
I think people need to focus on Adam Giambrone's platform and views for the future of Toronto instead of his personal life. He admitted he made a mistake- He's human. I think its safe to say everyone that posts here has made an error when it comes to their romantic life. Lets move on to issues that matter to Toronto people.
Bellaire mayor challenges Dynamo stadium plan; others on board
Boy, I think a stadium there would be great for both the city of Bellaire and Houston. I hope the mayor stops to think about this for moment before opposing the stadium plan.

Air monitors installed in Franklin school
The monitoring process should be done by an independant outside environmental specialist such as a certified industrial hygenist. Better still, an out of state entity where TDEC has no influence. But then, Kevin, you really don't want to cover the "whole" story,anyway, now do you? You prefer to write what is mostly supportive of TDEC and the polluter. You did not even cover the last meeting held in November sponsored by the Tennesseans for a Cleaner Environment (Tface) where Dr. Robert Geller , a well known and respected toxicologist and medical doctor from Atlanta specializing in pediatric environmental issues at Emory University, addressed a large crowd here in Franklin at Oak Valley Baptist Church. Dr. Geller confirmed that the levels of contaminants at BGA's playground varied eleven times during 2008, when the school and TDEC dismissed the higher levels as not consistant enough to make kids sick. Well, parents should have been told the truth, but instead, BGA maintained that the levels remained the same, and never reached higher levels of concern at the chronic level of acceptance. Why did you not report on that? And the fact that Joe George of the state Health department also confirmed that the levels varied those same eleven times, once on May 7, when my daughter fell ill due to the high concentration of vapors. I offered you all of my documentation and you never followed up on that story....Is it because you are slightly biased or are you just a sloppy journalist ? Parents more importantly need to know the symptoms of chemical exposure and what to look for is they suspect their children are exhibiting signs of being sensitive to these chemicals. These symptoms include: constant runny nose, nagging cough, watery eyes,sneezing, difficulty breathing such as could be confused as asthma or ashma like upper repiratory problems, fluid on the ears, or lungs in the form of phelgm that is difficult to expel by coughing, nausea, vomitting, and stomach problems such as cramping and diarhea to name a few of the most common. And one more thing.... there are no studies on children which indicate at what level these chemicals can affect them adversely. So when you or anyone else tries to say that my child just can't get sick at this or that level, you don't have any sound scientific evidence to back that up...because none exists. People in Franklin need to understand that these bad smells are from toxic chemicals, they can't be good for you!!! Dr. Geller did state that very young children, pregnant women, the elderly and those with compromised immune systems should not be exposed to these chemicals at all. Unfortunately, nobody told the P B and J Daycare which just opened in January across the street from Essex on Columbia Avenue. And obviously the city of Franklin didn't inform these unknowing parents of preschoolers either, nor did your newspaper, either. Come on, Kevin...get with it and do your job.
