Pool Cleaning & Services

here is this old couple that lives on one side of us and the past 2 weeks they have been leaving nasty notes in my letterbox complaining saying we have cat pool all over our yard and ordering us to clean it up saying it smells and is a health hazard. We went out there and there was two small turds in our entire yard and it didn’t smell at all.

So they come knocking on our door and I didn’t answer it.

Then I come home from work and these people leave another note threatening us. Today they came over twice knocking on our door and we didn’t answer it. They leave their patio light on most of the night and I suspect they are trespassing onto our property at night looking for cat poop because we have very tall solid fences and they seem to know the location exactly of a turd.

It is ridiculous and we are tired of being harassed by these nut jobs.

We have completely ignored them because I understand some neighbors just are bored and enjoy stirring up trouble with their neighbors.

It would be one thing if there were piles of poo on our yard but to complain 5 minutes after our cat takes a poop is ridiculous.

What should we do?

WASHINGTON – What’s all the fuss about? After all the noise over Democrats’ push for a government insurance plan to compete with private carriers, coverage numbers are finally in: Two percent.

That’s the estimated share of Americans younger than 65 who’d sign up for the public option plan under the health care bill that Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., is steering toward House approval.

The underwhelming statistic is raising questions about whether the government plan will be the iron-fisted competitor that private insurers warn will shut them down or a niche operator that becomes a haven for patients with health insurance horror stories.

Some experts are wondering if lawmakers have wasted too much time arguing about the public plan, giving short shrift to basics such as ensuring that new coverage will be affordable.

“The public option is a significant issue, but its place in the debate is completely out of proportion to its actual importance to consumers,” said Drew Altman, president of the nonpartisan Kaiser Family Foundation. “It has sucked all the oxygen out of the room and diverted attention from bread-and-butter consumer issues, such as affordable coverage and comprehensive benefits.”

The Democratic health care bills would extend coverage to the uninsured by providing government help with premiums and prohibiting insurers from excluding people in poor health or charging them more. But to keep from piling more on the federal deficit, most of the uninsured will have to wait until 2013 for help. Even then, many will have to pay a significant share of their own health care costs.

The latest look at the public option comes from the Congressional Budget Office, the nonpartisan economic analysts for lawmakers.

It found that the scaled back government plan in the House bill wouldn’t overtake private health insurance. To the contrary, it might help the insurers a little.

The budget office estimated that about 6 million people would sign up for the public option in 2019, when the House bill is fully phased in. That represents about 2 percent of a total of 282 million Americans under age 65. (Older people are covered through Medicare.)

The overwhelming majority of the population would remain in private health insurance plans sponsored by employers. Others, mainly low-income people, would be covered through an expanded Medicaid program.

To be fair, most people would not have access to the new public plan. Under the House bill, it would be offered through new insurance exchanges open only to those who buy coverage on their own or work for small companies. Yet even within that pool of 30 million people, only 1-in-5 would take the public option.

Who’s likely to sign up?

The budget office said “a less healthy pool of enrollees” would probably be attracted to the public option, drawn by the prospect of looser rules on access to specialists and medical services.

As a result, premiums in the public plan would be higher than the average for private plans. That could nudge healthy middle-class workers and their families to sign up for private plans.

Harrison Cemetery – People who visit this place always have the feeling of being followed or being watched. This places if located right behind Harrison High School . It is ok to visit too. The gravestones are very old and been know to move to different locations. Crying and moaning can be heard on some nights. Beware some of the ghost are known to touch and throw objects.

Pythian Home – It is an old Nursing Home where many of the people who lived there died. There are many things that happen in there from lights turning on unexpectedly, to hearing footsteps, and even feeling something brush up against you. One of the stories are, there was a murder in on of the bathrooms. When the body was taken out, three women went in and cleaned it up. One of the women new the girl that was murdered and she went back to pay her respects. When she walked into the room, she found exactly as it was before they started cleaning. Now around the time of the anniversary of the girl’s murder, all the gore returns. There still is no use cleaning it up. It still comes back.

Bishop Noll Institute – On the second floor, in the A-wing you can hear footsteps and people talking with the whole floor being empty. In the lab rooms, chairs would fall off desks without being pushed. There are 3 know deaths in the school. One in front of the Library where a single stop will be constantly cold. Second, a freshman drowned in the pool, which is no longer used and closed off, which you can hear laughter from. And third, in the second floor A-wing, a janitor hung himself.

Gavit High School – Every night at about midnight . It is said to be people walking around the roof and if you shut the windows the night before some of the windows will be open. If you are inside you can hear metal clinking together and muffled screams, along with orbs and figures walking. Although some have never seen anything at all and believe that the school is not haunted.

Haunted House – This house is located at 36 Detroit St. between the Illinois state line and Hohman Ave. But not only is the house haunted, the whole block has strange things happen.

Jayme House – There are two bedrooms upstairs. The bedroom to the left….. if you shut the cubby hole door at night when you wake up the door is open , if you put something in front of the door it is still open in the morning. The bedroom to the right…… glowing eyes, noises, over powering smells… all in the cubby hole. At around mid-night if you sit quietly you can hear foot steps, sometimes running, laughing, and playing of small children. Stairwell leading to the upstairs bedrooms is also haunted. A little girl @ 8 years old. Likes to play. Sightings all over the house. A large number of happenings. Witness’ by the numbers. Objects disappearing /reappearing, moving, chairs coming out from under you while you are sitting in them. People being lifted of the ground. Things touching you.

Cathedral High School (Fomer sight of Ladywood High School ) – When the Cathedral High School campus was the campus of Ladywood, a private boarding school in Indianapolis . Ladywood was entirely run by the Sisters of Providence, a group of nuns devoted to a Catholic education. There is a building on campus, Loretto Hall, the former main building of Ladywood, classes were held on the first floor, physical education in the basement, with student dorms on the second floor, and nun dorms in the attic. It has been reported many times that at night, after what would be “lights out” for the girls that you can hear and sometimes see a sister walking down the halls in the second floor and candles burning in the attic.

Old Central State Hospital/Asylum – Several reports from night watchmen of noises, screams of “patients”, and mysterious “people” seen and then disappeared. Tours available. Some of the older buildings gone, but some remaining. Huge grounds. Medical Museum on site also reported haunted as it once was the hospital’s morgue. Guarded minimally at night. Entrance is on Warman Ave. right off of West Washington .

Decatur Central High School – The incident occurred in October of 1979. A car driven by a drunk driver crashed into the school auditorium killing one of the five girls in the vehicle. Strangely enough, the school’s electricity would not work for several weeks after and the entire school smelled like burnt rubber. Every year, around the time of accident, the electricity still goes out and burnt rubber is smelt. Some people have even reported seeing a young female ghost walking up and down the stairs crying.

The Bloodstain
The Phelps place was an old, abandoned property with a monstrous, decrepit Victorian house that was supposed to be haunted. It should have been a good resting place for the local deer hunters, but they would not go near it. A few that tried came away before midnight with tales of ghostly thumping noises, gasps, moans, and a terrible wet bloodstain that appeared on the floor of the front porch and could not be wiped away.

Phelps was an Englishman who had purchased land some 20 miles off the Mendocino coast in the 1880s. He had built a huge, fancy Victorian house all covered with gingerbread trimmings and surrounded by lovely gardens. When everything was arranged to his liking, he sent out party invitations to everyone within messenger range. It was the biggest social event of the year, with music and dancing and huge amounts of food. Sawhorse tables were set up with refreshments, and drinks were set out on the front porch. People came from miles around. The only one missing was old man McInturf’s son-in-law. They had had a terrible fight that afternoon, and the boy had stalked off in a rage, threatening to get even with the old man.

Around midnight, the musicians took a recess and old man McInturf went out on the front porch with some friends. Suddenly there came the thunder of hooves rushing up the lane. A cloaked figure rode towards the lantern-lit porch. McInturf put down his drink. “That will be my son-in-law,” he told his friends as he went down the steps. The cloaked figure stopped his horse just outside the pool of lantern-light. There was a sharp movement and two loud shots from a gun. Old man McInturf staggered backwards, shot in the throat and the chest. The cloaked man wheeled his horse and fled down the lane as friends ran to the assistance of the old man.

They laid McInturf down on the porch. He was bleeding heavily and they were afraid to move him much. There was some talk of fetching the doctor, but everyone knew it was too late. So much blood was pouring from the old man’s wounds that it formed a pool underneath his head. McInturf coughed, once, twice; a hideous, gurgling, strangling sound that wrenched at the hearts of all who heard it. Then he died.

McInturf’s body was laid out on the sofa, and the once-merry guests left in stricken silence. The servants came and wiped the red-brown bloodstain off the floorboards. The next day, a wagon was brought to the front of the house and McInturf’s body was carried out onto the porch. As the men stepped across the place where McInturf had died, blood began to pool around their boots, forming a wet stain in exactly the pattern that had been wiped up by the servants the night before. The men gasped in fear. One of them staggered and almost dropped the body. They hurriedly laid McInturf in the back of the wagon, and a pale Phelps ordered the servants to clean up the fresh bloodstain.

From that day forward, the Phelps could not keep that part of the porch clean. Every few weeks, the damp bloodstain would reappear. They tried repainting the porch a few times, but the bloodstain would always leak through. In the county jail, McInturf’s son-in-law died of a blood clot in the brain. A few months later, one of the Phelps servants went mad after seeing a “terrible sight” that made his head feel like it was going to exploded. Folks started saying the house was being haunted by the ghost of McInturf, seeking revenge. The property was resold several times but each resident was driven out by the terrible, gasping ghost of McInturf reliving his last moments and by the bloodstain that could not be removed from the porch. The house was eventually abandoned
