Shohola Property Rights Legal Battle by FRITZ MAYER Your Award-Winning News Source for the Upper Delaware River Valley Region Since 1975 Vol. 43 No. 24 AUGUST 24-30, 2017 www.riverreporter.com $1.50 Shohola property rights legal battle By FRITZ MAYER HOHOLA, PA — Amelia and William Pearn own a home in a neighborhood known as Maple Park, which is located next Sdoor to a community called Walker Lake, which is governed by a homeowners’ association called Walker Lakeshores Land- owners Association (WLLA). Since 2010, WLLA has been trying to get the Pearns to pay them thousands of dollars in “dues” or “assessments,” even though their property is not a part of Walker Lake and is not subject to WLLA assessments. That is essentially what two different judges have found. Amelia has recorded this battle in a very detailed manner at the website www.shoholapa.com. One entry that points to the confus- ing relationship between WLLA and Maple Park is this: “Most of Maple Park [about 30 homes] gets some form of ‘billing’ from this HOA [homeowners association]. Some pay, some don’t. Some get sued, some don’t.” The Pearns took title to the property in 2007, and the first billing from WLLA came in 2010; it was for “nonpayment of association dues, $5,440.90 plus attorney’s fees.” The matter went to Magis- terial District Court, where Magistrate Alan Cooper determined that the couple owed $15 per year to WLLA for “water mainte- TRR photo by Amanda Reed nance.” Given the three-year period under consideration, late fees This picture was taken during the solar eclipse on August 21 on the Pennsylvania side of the Upper Delaware River, across the and court costs, the judge ruled that the Pearns owe WLLA $235. river from Narrowsburg, NY.

Learning is one aspect of extreme plasticity, and creativity another. Any species that can do such things as play with the world, imagine it, remember it, and expand its cir- cles of experience…will ultimately start to experiment.” —Merlin Donald, A Mind So Rare “If we can reimagine possibility it can result in an entirely new vision of how to create lasting change in our communities. Not in a dreamy, wish- ful, [naïve] sense, but rather through a bold and courageous commitment to practical and specific measures grounded in the daily experience of what has been proven to work over and over again but has not been tried on a large enough scale.” —Bill Shore, Revolution of the Heart “We need visions these days. Not the prognostications of cybergeeks and marketers and statisticians and trend-mongers who try to tell us where we’ll end up if we continue in the direction we’re going. Useful as these predictions may be, we’ve got plenty of those kinds of visions. What we need are visions of society the way we want it to be. Creative, seemingly impractical, catalytic visions of human possibility and achievement can inspire and motivate us to change our lives and the world.” —Eric Utne, Visionaries: People and Ideas to Change Your Life.

  • A Visit to North Spain at the Time of the Eclipse of 1860
    422 VACATION TOURISTS, AND [Spain and Eclipse. 12. A VISIT TO NORTH SPAIN AT THE TIME OF THE ECLIPSE. BY EKANCIS GALTON, F.RS. A direction was given to my summer rambles by the desire of witnessing the solar eclipse of last June, and by the fact that the path of its totality, where nearest to England, lay across a country which I ardently longed to visit. The result was, that I applied for permission, and obtained it, to form one of the party of astronomers who, under the leadership of the Astronomer-Eoyal, were taken by H.M.S. Himalaya to Spain. The Himalaya is truly a noble vessel, and we were right imperially treated. Those whose experience has been drawn from coasting passenger-steamers, in English or Mediterranean waters, would hardly credit that anything floated comparable in spaciousness and luxury to this magnificent ship. And she is as fast and as easy, excepting a tendency to roll, as she is spacious and comfortable ; for we steamed out of Plymouth Sound on a Saturday forenoon, so steadily, that I hardly knew we were moving ; and on the Sunday night we were going at half-power, because we were too near the Spanish coast, whose bold outlines lay in full view on the early Monday morning. It was therefore with one of those feelings of contrast so often enjoyed by travellers, that I, with my eyes still toned to that dim English daylight in which we had just bade fare- well to our shores, found myself paddling up the Bilbao river in a small shore-going craft, under a full flood of southern F.

Korn – Discography (1994 – 2014) EAC Rip | 19xCD + 4xDVD | FLAC Image & Tracks + Cue + Log | Full Scans included Total Size: 11.2 GB | 3% RAR Recovery STUDIO ALBUMS | LIVE ALBUMS | COMPILATION | EP Label: Various | Genre: Alternative Rock, Nu Metal. Korn’s cathartic alternative metal sound positioned the group among the most popular and provocative to emerge during the post-grunge era. Korn began their existence as the Bakersfield, California-based metal band LAPD, which included guitarists James “Munky” Shaffer and Brian “Head” Welch, bassist Reginald “Fieldy Snuts” Arvizu, and drummer David Silveria. After issuing an LP in 1993, the members of LAPD crossed paths with Jonathan Davis, a mortuary science student moonlighting as the lead vocalist for the local group Sexart. They soon asked Davis to join the band, and upon his arrival the quintet rechristened itself Korn. After signing to Epic’s Immortal imprint, they issued their debut album in late 1994; thanks to a relentless tour schedule that included stints opening for Ozzy Osbourne, Megadeth, Marilyn Manson, and 311, the record slowly but steadily rose in the charts, eventually going gold. Its 1996 follow- up, Life Is Peachy, was a more immediate smash, reaching the number three spot on the pop album charts. The following summer, they headlined Lollapalooza, but were forced to drop off the tour when Shaffer was diagnosed with viral meningitis. While recording their best-selling 1998 LP Follow the Leader, Korn made national headlines when a student in Zeeland, Michigan, was suspended for wearing a T-shirt emblazoned with the group’s logo (the school’s principal later declared their music “indecent, vulgar, and obscene,” prompting the band to issue a cease-and-desist order).

  • Rock Album Discography Last Up-Date: September 27Th, 2021
    Rock Album Discography Last up-date: September 27th, 2021 Rock Album Discography “Music was my first love, and it will be my last” was the first line of the virteous song “Music” on the album “Rebel”, which was produced by Alan Parson, sung by John Miles, and released I n 1976. From my point of view, there is no other citation, which more properly expresses the emotional impact of music to human beings. People come and go, but music remains forever, since acoustic waves are not bound to matter like monuments, paintings, or sculptures. In contrast, music as sound in general is transmitted by matter vibrations and can be reproduced independent of space and time. In this way, music is able to connect humans from the earliest high cultures to people of our present societies all over the world. Music is indeed a universal language and likely not restricted to our planetary society. The importance of music to the human society is also underlined by the Voyager mission: Both Voyager spacecrafts, which were launched at August 20th and September 05th, 1977, are bound for the stars, now, after their visits to the outer planets of our solar system (mission status: https://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status/). They carry a gold- plated copper phonograph record, which comprises 90 minutes of music selected from all cultures next to sounds, spoken messages, and images from our planet Earth. There is rather little hope that any extraterrestrial form of life will ever come along the Voyager spacecrafts. But if this is yet going to happen they are likely able to understand the sound of music from these records at least.
