Councilman Lew Fidler (Photo: New York City Council) The race for former State Senator Carl Kruger’s seat is really getting nasty. In an appearance at Brooklyn Young Democrats meeting at a bar in Sheepshead Bay last night, Councilman Lew Fidler was filmed by the Sheepshead Bites blog blasting his opponent, David Storobin, for having ties to extremist groups. “David Storobin, a guy who can’t even fess… Broadcasting platform : YouTube Source : The Politicker Discovery Date : 19/01/2012 19:34 Number of articles : 2

There’s been talk about passing an “anti-sagging law” for years now, which would prevent men from wearing their pants below their waist and exposing their underwear in public. Now, Florida senators are in the midst of passing the law that boys can’t expose their underwar in public and especially in school settings. State Senator Gary Siplin has been working on the bill which would be targeted towards school’s dress codes and he is close to making it a law after six years of fighting. SB 228 and House version, HB 61, makes it against the law when boys wear their pants so low that you’re able to see their underwear. This rule applies to both boys and girls. Kevin Gordon, a principle in a Florida school, says school administrators are sending a message on what is appropriate in the workplace. He stated: “ If you are not dressed appropriately, then you’re not ready for school. If you are not ready for school, you’re not ready to be successful.” What do you think? Do you think the way that you dress affects your success level? Do you think that the government has a reason to regulate how people dress? Read the full story at Bossip.com.

Really? A bill?? We don’t want to see men’s underwear either but the government is going to tell people how to dress now??? State Senator Gary Siplin has been working on a bill aimed at a school’s dress code policy for six years and he’s close to making it law. SB 228 and House version, HB 61, makes it against the law when teens wear their pants so low you can see their underwear. The proposed rule under the school code of conduct applies to boys and girls. The Senate version passed without any dissenting votes. The saggy pants fashion among teens is bad enough to inspire this song on American Idol a couple of seasons ago. The opening lyrics say, “Pants on the ground. Pants on the ground, looking like a fool with your pants on the ground.” Florida lawmakers agree with “General” Larry Platt’s song and are fast approving a bill banning clothing that shows underwear in public schools. Mike Davis, a senior at Gibbs High School in St. Petersburg, says he supports the bill. “You should dress appropriately for school. It’s a business. It’s the place training you to become the person you will be in life.” A local school principal agrees wholeheartedly: Principal Kevin Gordon says school administrators are sending a clear message on what’s appropriate for school and the workforce. “If you are not dressed appropriately, then you’re not ready for school. If you are not ready for school, you’re not ready to be successful,” says Gordon. He adds, “Those are patterns students get into. We try to create patterns that are going to be patterns of success.” Do you think the government has a right to dictate how people dress?? Source
