  • Feingold Returns with Impressions of Capitol by Anthony Caskey
    News WM's &&& team art ** ,..., . :'£;' -ff Volume 37, Number 48 Feingold returns with impressions of Capitol By Anthony Caskey U.S. Sen. Russ Feingold voiced his support for a universal, single-payer health care system during a speech he gave at the First Unitarian Church in Milwaukee Sunday morning. He said that he was one of only seven senators that support such a health care package. Health care reforms were just one topic covered in wide ranging presentation about the senator's first months in Wash­ ington D.C. Of the Clinton administration's health care package, Feingold said "managed competition sounded a little bad to me." The senator said he feared that the administration's idea of managed competition might just benefit the medical insurance industry, but he is not sure since the details of Hillary Rodham Clinton's health care reform package have not yet been released. Feingold said that he has heard from a fellow senator that the administration's health program now coined as "managed competition" may be mislabeled, and that the program actually looks more like a universal single-payer health care system than managed competition. Feingold said he hopes that the administration's health care program is mislabeled, and that their system does look more like the universal single-payer health care system he supports. He also said he would like the administration's health care package to include dental benefits, something the Clinton plan does not currently include. Feingold also talked about campaign reform. The senator who spent less than his opponents by a wide margin last fall said he would like the financing of elections to come solely from public funds.

  • Jams and Jokes –The Spin Doctors 'Rock the Dock' Spin Doctors
    Jams and jokes –The Spin Doctors ‘Rock the Dock' Posted by TBN Editor On 08/03/2017 Spin Doctors and vocalist Chris Barron perform their signature hit "Two Princes." Chesapeake Beach, MD - It will take more than a sound system glitch to thwart the band the Spin Doctors in their pursuit of entertaining an audience. The blues rock band—originally called “Trucking Company” when they were formed in New York City during the late 1980s—performed Wednesday evening, Aug. 2 at Chesapeake Beach Resort and Spa as part of that venue’s 2017 Rock the Dock series. At an early juncture of the Spin Doctors’ performance a portion of the speaker system went silent. Hardly missing a beat, lead vocalist Chris Barron told the audience a few dog and pirate jokes. Fortunately, the system was quickly repaired and the jam session resumed. The Spin Doctors' moments in the limelight have included memorable appearances on the iconic television shows Saturday Night Live and Sesame Street. Their live show at the Chesapeake Beach band shell was well-received by the audience, many of whom stormed the front of the stage when the group performed their signature hit, the Grammy-nominated “Two Princes.” In addition to Barron, the group includes bass guitarist Mark White, drummer Aaron Comess and guitarist Eric Schenkman. The “Fat Whiskey Band” opened the show for the Spin Doctors, who resume their tour, which includes performances in Virginia Beach, VA at Neptune’s Park (Aug. 15) and Aug. 19 in Raleigh NC. The intermission featured something new at Chesapeake Beach Resort and Spa, as about 20 specially made T-shirts promoting the venue’s gaming facility, were tossed to the audience.
