HELP PUT THE STANLEY BROTHERS IN THE COUNTRY MUSIC HALL OF FAME!
Ralph Stanley has received many well-deserved honors in the last few years, yet one honor eludes him. While many of their fellow musicians and singers have been recognized by The Country Music Hall of Fame, THE STANLEY BROTHERS have been sadly -- some say criminally -- overlooked.
Jeanie Stanley, youngest daugher of Carter, and fan Kaye Hill have organized an on-going petition to change all that.
"The Country Music Hall of Fame recognizes those persons who have made a significant contribution to the country music field," says Hill. "The Stanley Brothers helped lay the foundation for what we have today. Their names deserve to be listed among greats like Bill Monroe and Flatt & Scruggs, who have already be recognized."
You can join their efforts in one of the following ways:
Contact the CMHoF directly:
Mr. Kyle Young, President
Country Music Hall of Fame & Museum
222 Fifth Avenue South
Nashville TN 37203
Or, if you prefer, you can send a letter to Kaye Hill, who will forward them to the HoF.
D. Kaye Hill
PO Box 2553
Harrisonsonburg VA 22801
Kay says, "a simple one-line note is all that would be required, but please remember to supply your name and address, and an email address if applicable. I will be collecting all letters and forwarding them to the Country Music Hall of Fame."
damn, my buddy just told me how to get a $500 to Macy's for free mine just came in the mail today and it is very easy to get one it only takes one minute!
Call on Public to Make Submissions to Minister Roche
TaraWatch is urging the public to make a submission of their own to the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government, Dick Roche, on his decision on how to proceed with the M3 motorway, in light of the new national monument discovered in Lismullen, Tara. We are asking him to preserve the site, under 14A(4)(d)(i). The reason we say the Minister MUST preserve the site, in situ, is due to the national and international importance of the site.
As the Minister for Heritage, Roche has a constitutional duty to give the highest level of statutory protection possible. The National Roads Authority (NRA) had failed to find the massive site before now.
The heritage of Ireland should not be so massively diminished due to the acts of the NRA. The Act specifically provides for this situation, and gives the Minister the power to do preserve the site.
Many alternatives are available to the Minister and the NRA for rerouting the M3, or replacing it with a more sustainable solution.
Submissions can be a one page letter. Please state specifically that the mail is meant to be a submission to him, as he decides on the fate of the national monument.
It would be better to email the submission to both the Ministers e-mail addresses; minister@environ.ie and dick.roche@oireachtas.ie
But be sure to send a hard copy to the Minister as well, to:
Dick Roche, TD.
Minister for the Environment,
Customs House,
Dublin 2.

All right, I know my ancestors are turning over in their graves, but everything on this site is great except for the haggis. Never understood it. If I ate it, I'd be entered in the haggis tossing event for fair sure.
Hello how are you? I'm good. I just uploaded a bunch of short videos from my various trips abroad, plus some from my family and friends. Hope you can check them out. Well stop by when you get a chance and tell me what you're doing.
