I just downloaded a picture and it doesn't show up. It says I downloaded 4 but only 3 are shown.

Maybe a dumb question, but, if my photo did not win can I enter it again the following week?
Jason Alley (Editor) August 10, 2012 at 04:08 am
That's not a dumb question at all, Heather. It's a very good question because yes, you can! Photos do not automatically carry over week to week, but you're more than welcome to resubmit the same photo (or send in new ones) for the following week's contest. Good luck!

Isn't this the way too many jurisdictions have gotten into financial trouble -- using bonds toRead More finance expenses rather than restricting them to long lived assets? Perhaps the pensions need to be reformed rather than "reforming" their financing. Are we taking on added pension obligations for personnel to support services we have "sold" to other jurisdictions?

I was wrong when I predicted that the School District would be asking for more money in two or threeRead More years - by two or three years...... No wonder I didn't get elected to the Board. With such miscalculations on my part, I realize that the majority of the voters had so much more insight than I had........lol Maybe I should learn a lesson here - borrow money to keep the "life-style" I have become used to. What genius!
