Olympic gold medal swimmer Ryan Lochte training meals consisted of McDonalds Big Breakfast for breakfast; Chicken McNuggets, double cheeseburgers and Big Macs for lunch and dinner with fries for dinner.
This was more variety than the training meals of Olympic gold medal sprinter Usain Bolt which was 1,000 Chicken McNuggets a day. And fries.
Verizon has told customers in the Philadelphia that they must change their email settings by June 9 from incoming.verizon.net and outgoing.verizon.net to pop.verizon.net and smtp.verizon.net respectively.
It should be a pretty easy thing but if one has one of the newer Mac OS’s one might be finding himself going a little nuts as the pop setting might be grayed out in the accounts preferences.
Select the account you want to change, uncheck ‘Automatically detect and maintain account settings’, save — you will be prompted when you close the account preferences box, then return to the account and edit the Incoming Mail Server.

How many spiders will you likely eat in your lifetime as you sleep? Zero, despite what you might have read on the internet . Spiders really don’t like warm breath or beds with people tossing and turning on them.
Is Paul Mullen (right) a big bully as one woman says? Here he is supporting Joe Sestak in 2010.
The guy the Delaware County Republicans picked in the 161st District Pennsylvania House race was the hatchetman used against unruly union members supporting Republican Tom McGarrigle in last fall’s 26th District State Senate race, according to stories from September.
Andrea Devenney appeared in an advertisement praising McGarrigle for saving her husband’s refinery job. Soon after, Mrs. Devenney’s husband, Steve, a union electrician, was approached by Paul Mullen who allegedly told him something along the lines of get the little lady in line or your job is toast.
Mullen is the one the Republicans want in in the 161st Seat that is being vacated by Republican Joe Hackett.
Mullen admitted to making a call but said he was just offering Steve a job. Mullen is Business Manager of IBEW Local 654 and president of the Delaware County AFL-CIO
Mrs. Devenney, however, says Mullen made the call on behalf of John Kane, the Democrat opposing McGarrigle as she quickly texted the McGarrigle campaign in disgust saying ‘So John Kain(sp?) called paul mullin flipping out over the commercial. Steve is in serious trouble and his job may be on the line. I’m in a horrible spot….how long will that commercial run?’”
Mullen was (is?) a strong supporter of liberal Democrat Joe Sestak in 2010 against moderate Republican Pat Toomey. Has the county GOP asked him what he will do if the expected rematch happens in 2016? Suppose if Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker is the presidential nominee. Can a guy who ran the county AFL-CIO support him? Of course not. There is no upside to Mullen as a Republican legislator.
Hackett is vacating the seat saying he wants to return to law enforcement. The special election is Aug. 4. The Democrats have not yet announced a candidate albeit there is no real reason why they should bother. A write-in campaign is being considered by Penn Delco School Board Director Lisa Esler.
The 161st District is the townships of Aston, Nether Providence, Ridley (PART, Wards 01 [PART, Division 03], 02 [PART, Divisions 01 and 03], 03, 05, 07 and 08) and Springfield (PART, Ward 03 [PART, Division 02 (HD161)]) and the boroughs of Brookhaven, Rose Valley, Rutledge and Swarthmore. It was a population of 63,539.
Americans have to learn to stop making politics a contest between which side gets to milk the public cow for two or four years. We have to learn to look at issues. In Pennsylvania, the biggest issue is the pension bomb caused by the malfeasance of men and women we elected to watch the public purse and our foolishness in trusting them. SB 1, a small but necessary step in alleviating future pain, is on the table. The unions are outspokenly against it. Where does Mullen stand? LOL.
In Springfield — this is for you people in Ward 3, Division 2 — a $130 million new high school is being sought. Repealing the state prevailing wage law would likely shave millions off the cost — 20 percent according to one respected source. Would Mullen support it? Again LOL.
If you, the retiree, the guy that’s out of work, the mom with three kids, the one who owns a pizza shop or works 9-5 to make ends meet want to see your standard of living stop shrinking, then don’t vote for guys like Mullen.
The largest residential property in Manhattan is said to be a fifty-one-thousand-square-foot mansion, on East Seventy-first Street between Madison and Fifth, owned by Jeffrey Epstein.
The below off the internet is courtesy of Judy McGrane. Various “fact checkers” have taken issue with this pointing out that Mrs. Clinton will not receive her full Senate salary, about $160,000, but just 13.6 percent of it, and that if she should die her husband would only be entitled to half of that.
Further, while they are entitled to $1,100 monthly rent payments — not $10,000 — for their Secret Service contingent, they have said that they are waiving the fee.
And it should be noted the $11 million mansion referred to was here is in Bedford Hills, which they never ended up buying.
They remain in their old $1.7 million home Chappaqua.
Hillary Rodham Clinton, as a New York State Senator now comes under this fancy “congressional retirement staffing plan” which means that if she never gets re-elected, she STILL receives her Congressional salary until she dies.
If Bill out-lives her, he then inherits HER salary until he dies. He is already getting his Presidential salary ($20,000 a month) until he dies. If Hillary out-lives Bill, she also gets HIS salary until she dies! Guess who pays for that? WE DO!
Clinton’s 20 Acre – $11 million mansion is common knowledge. For her to establish NY residency, they purchased this mansion in upscale Chappaqua, New York. Makes sense. They are entitled to Secret Service protection for life. Still makes sense.
Here is where it becomes interesting. Their mortgage payments are around $10,000/month. But an extra residence had to be built by the government on the acreage to house the Secret Service Agents. Any improvement to the property is owned by the property owners… the Clinton’s. So… the Clinton’s charge the federal government $10,000 monthly rent for the use of the extra residence to house the Secret Service staff which is just about equal to their mortgage payment. He is the ONLY ex-president to use this loophole, thus earning the name ‘Slick Willie’.
This means that we, the taxpayers, pay the Clinton’s, salary, mortgage, transportation, safety and security as well as the salaries for their 12 man staff, and it is all perfectly legal. AND DON’T FORGET HIS GOVERNOR’S PENSION AND HER SECRETARY OF STATE PENSION…
When she runs for President, will you vote for her?
There are 7.3 billion persons in the world. If each of us was a grain of sand would we could all fit in an 8,000 cubic feet box which is smaller than most houses. To fit all people in one building, it would have to be 42,377,599,886 cubic feet. The height, length and width would be about 3,400 feet.
Gov. Tom Wolf has a tax plan that would place an additional $4.7 billion burden on Pennsylvania’s citizens.
Yesterday, June 1, legislation went before the State House that would have started the process of enacting it.
It failed 193-0. Yes, not one Democrat could bring himself or herself to vote for it.
The Democrat leadership is angry. They are calling the legislation “gamesmanship.” Maybe they should ask instead that government officials like Wolf refrain from pandering and making impossible promises and seriously consider the effect of what they propose.
Of course, that would mean that a Democrat would never again get elected.
