Oust Webb, take back Point Place

As a former Point Place resident, I watched with amusement as the "Take Back Toledo" campaign worked to get a recall petition on the ballet to oust Carty Finkbeiner as mayor of Toledo. I think it's time for the residents of Point Place to start a new recall campaign to "Take Back Point Place," and oust Lindsay Webb.

TPS education statistics

TPS is once again being pilloried -but this time with great justification. "Early scores show that Ohio 3rd through 8th graders are getting a "C" average or better in reading. Only 51 percent of 8th graders across the State passed the social studies section of the test. Regarding local averages: Ottawa Hills was Lucas County's top performer with 83 percent of the kids passing the test. Down at the bottom is Toledo Public with only 19 percent making the grade." http://www.wtol.com/Global/story.asp?S=10718530

In the first presidential address to parliament in 136 years, Sarkozy faced critics who fear the burqa issue could stigmatize France's Muslims and said he supported banning the garment from being worn in public.
