Andy Palumbo Suggestions

My friend and fellow co-worker Andy Palumbo sent me a twitter message the other day (ok, maybe more like a month ago) with some new bloggers he wanted to see us link to.


"John Quigley's A Green Thing blog"

http://johnhquigley.blogspot.com/

John Quigley is a former Hazleton mayor.  He talks about green living and fracking on his blog, which we all know is a hot button issue in Northeast PA these days.

From the About:  

A GREEN THING

The tree which moves some to tears of joy is in the eyes of others only a Green thing that stands in the way. Some see Nature all Ridicule and Deformity...and some scarce see Nature at all. But to the eyes of the Man of Imagination, Nature is Imagination itself.

William Blake, English poet (1757-1827)

Experienced leader with a diverse career in the not-for-profit, public, and private sectors. Served as the founding executive director of a non-profit economic development corporation and as a 2-term Mayor of a city of 25,000 residents. Held a number of management positions with two industry-leading companies in the private sector and taught economics at a Pennsylvania State University branch campus. Wrote a weekly public affairs column for a northeast Pennsylvania newspaper and served as government relations manager with a statewide public interest organization. Most recently, served 2 years as the third Secretary of the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources.

"The Pix Chick"

Jeanne L. Kenney is "just a chick with a camera, walking around taking pictures of stuff".  You can also find her work on her Facebook Page, Twitter and her website http://www.thepixchick.com.



If you haven't visited in a while, you should take another look at Andy's blog.  Right now he has some bad photography featuring buildings in Wilkes-Barre that may be on the endangered list (staying with our Hotel Sterling theme on our blog this week).  I must say that Andy is probably one of the more dedicated bloggers I know.  He posts something new every day.  I wish I had that level of energy for my personal blog!

NOTE:  Jeanne informed me that she moved from the Tumblr blog to Wordpress due to technical issues and will be using that blog from now on to post.

Have a suggestion for a blogger that we aren't linking to?  Drop us a line: nepablogs@gmail.com.

My Electric Life

I've been totally slacking on posting new blogs to NEPA Blogs for the "March Blog Madness" theme this month. Sometimes life just gets in the way, and other things take a back burner. But here I am once again, with my latest peace offering.

My Electric Life is the blog of Jeff Haskell from Berwick PA.

"Green Thoughts, Pure Thoughts and Mad Science"

From the About Page: Hi there! Thanks for showing interest in me and my blog. I go by Nevyn here on the internet, and Jeff in real life. I’m just getting started with this blog thing; bear with me until I get moved in and everything unpacked. I’m into social media, computers, cars, green living, and my family. Primarily here you’ll find the odyssey of my friends and I starting from nothing, and making (eventually) a full fledged electric car. Life sometimes will get in the way, and posts about that will come up. Enjoy the rides, and live your life like it’s ELECTRIC!

You can also follow Jeff on Twitter via @NevynPA.
