A 28-year-old Tunisian man reportedly linked to an attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, has been arrested, a Tunisian Interior Ministry spokesman told the Associated Press Wednesday.

American Ambassador Chris Stevens, Glen Doherty, Sean Smith and Tyrone Woods were killed in Sept. 11 attacks. Doherty, Woods and Smith lived in the San Diego area.

Doherty and Woods, both former Navy SEALS, reportedly died while defending American personnel in an annex building.

Forcing the blame back on the court's for the release of these felon's will not solve the problem…Read More tho, A workable answer is to de=criminalize all state marijuana laws and release all those convicted of marijuana except thos ewith a conviction for distributing over 10 Lbs. Then take all those with federal convictions and drop them off at a federal court for them to deal; with ! We can not afford to keep minor marijuana prisoners in state jails any longer.

The advisory committee could help the rec center establish some new programs and apply for the 1000's of grants available out there. Lets not forget about the over 800 people in IB who signed a petition and still want a dog park. What about the need for a park in the Oneonta area? A Parks and Rec's Advisory Board could help council with funding and also take some of the work load off of staff. This wouldn't cost the City a dime, sounds like a win-win to me. If the advisory board had some dedicated volunteers, they could establish themselves as a non-profit and apply for grants themselves and help the City pay for these projects. That would free up money in the general fund and allow us to keep our Sportspark, Skatepark and Little Leagues to ourselves. Out sourcing should be our last resort.
