What a fantastic opening night of our PSL campaign we couldn't have asked for a better situation with Peter Nicol winning the decider to close the evening. Nicol David was brilliant too, and has obviously made a big hit with our members by sitting in the crowd to watch all the matches after she'd finished playing. At the end of the evening there was a club full of smiling faces, as well as a very happy manager!

The governor's position still stands, that he's against raising anybody's taxes, period.

The governor has said he is not satisfied with the temporary housing situation as far as getting the trailers out as fast as we possibly can. But there is no one to blame.

There is more involved than just getting a trailer to a site and leaving it there.

The governor has not set a timetable on when he will make a decision. He's going to take the time to pick the best person for the job.
