These are two of the most awaited decisions the Court has made this session, whether a Constitutional right can be restricted, and why should some one have to pay a 3rd party to work in a particular job.

The weather appeared as if it was heaven sent for City Island's Blessing of The Fleet. This annual event was successfully organized by members of The Power Squadron.

St. Mary's Star of The Sea's Father Agustus blessed the vessel Geometry as it's occupants on board were seen simultaneously making the sign of the cross. Ironically, this could be the last year this Catholic church remains open on the Island.
