Office Coffee comes in many flavors, colors, and smells, but we can all agree - unless you live in Seattle - that its not too particularly good. Whether 3-day old grinds, Dollar store brew, or the tar-like qualities a pot gets when its reheated for the umpteenth time, we still drink it. It’s a commodity and a convenience, a welcome blessing when rushing to work so unprepared your cowlicks bear calves by noon. Sometimes the coffe pot was brought from home, if you are lucky, you have a Bunn. And its all managed under the watchful eye of the “coffee clutch”

The clutch is that group of up-in-age office management bitties, the ones that order supplies and do your timesheets. They don’t actually drink the coffee, though some claim fealty, but by god there is always a full jar of sugar packets and a box of creamers, straws, napkins on the table; everything you need to forget that the coffee still tastes like shit. All they ask is that you pay.

First, Anthony Capozzi ended his stint in a state penitentiary when it was discovered that Altemio Sanchez had committed the crime for which Capozzi was convicted.

Now, Lynn DeJac ends her stint in a state penitentiary after Erie County Judge D’Amico ordered a new trial for her based on newly discovered evidence;

This court must conclude that if the newly discovered forensic evidence was available at the time of trial, there exists a reasonable probability that the verdict in the defendant’s trial would have been more favorable to the defendant

Judge D’Amico should know. After all, he presided over DeJac’s 1994 trial.

Buffalo, NY – Congressman Brian Higgins (NY-27) and the Citizens Campaign for the Environment welcomed representatives from local, state and national organizations to an open dialogue on issues important to the future of the Great Lakes.
