VtV,
Try this link for Red Hook help and suggested supplies. The Van Brunt Ave address is right up the street from the Dukester.
Good luck!
CR, I supposedly have four OpenIDs (including mos maiorum), all several years old. None of them work on the polls.
Regrets.

VA benefits were decreased before...
DVA care availability has always been subject to the amount of money in the DVA operating budget as provided by Congress.

Military retirees and spouses pay the Medicare Part B fee just like everyone else. Tricare secondary insurance is thrown in as a retirement benefit and includes pharmacuticals.

Is she going to go to the University of MI?
Actually, she has been accepted to the other school. Green and White and all that...
She think shes can be educated here about as cheaply as in the UK now that Cameron has severely chopped financial aid for students. She does pick up VA aid as child of a deceased serviceman. And MSU has a good psychology department.
Here is hoping the commentariat has enjoyed the holiday as have I and mine ... family and friends, good food and good cheer ... just cracked open a Michigan Brewing Co. Brown Ale (fully as good as any Newcastle Brown I ever had).
Of interest, one of our UK dual-citizen granddaughters intends to study psychology here in Michigan, rather than attend a UK red-brick school. Sure hope she knows what she is doing.

At least nine different trash pickup companies pass my Michigan small city home each Tuesday. Each year one or two more one-truck outfits pop up with really low rates to try for some job creation. Most last about three years.....

Last week the engine in my daughter's 2001 Escape blew at 127k miles.
Having just re-sided her house, she needed a loan. PNC offered 2.75%
for any amount (she said) and any period two thru 10 years. FICO 802.
In 50 years of vehicle ownership, I was never offered such a deal....
Guess I may as well go watch 'bama do in PSU. Later...

Frontier ended up owning a bunch of VZ's land line business via a sale/spinoff.
Frontier bought my landline/DSL business. The first call to Frontier, about a DSL issue, resulted in a 2.5 hour hold.
The second call to Frontier, an hour and twenty minute hold, was to fire them. Charter cable is great so far...

"I have found that if I come into a large thread for the first time, the pagination sometimes gets messed up with the right side text scroll bar appearing to go on past the visual desktop area, and never being able to get to the next page link(I think this only happens on 3 paginations). If I end up reading a thread before the first or second page, it works just fine."
Yes.
