President Donald Trump is offering support for Catholic bishops' consecration of the United States to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, an unprecedented act of solidarity with the Catholic Church as the animosity between the White House and the Vatican is seemingly in the rearview.

MORE ON THAT "CAR AUDIO CULTURE' SITUATION
So it has been recommended that those with an interest check out and/or do a search---on several REDDIT pages featuring this scene---Sound Quality (SQ) & Competitions---because from what we're reading--and we're not spending any more time on this though you may want to--the Hudson Valley region is a major hub for audiophile-level car audio through the HVR (Hudson Valley Regionals) Sound Quality Competition. Unlike basic "bass-heavy" shows, SQ competitions judge vehicles on sound staging, imaging, and tonal accuracy. They pop up periodically especially during the summer months. Rockland, Spring Valley, Haverstraw, Yonkers, the Bronx, and parts of Peekskill particularly are home to these meetups.
But we're hoping this is over for the time being...and we're back to relatively quiet nights and Sunday mornings.

JAY CARLISLE: JOHN SARCONE III WAS ALWAYS AND IS QUALIFIED
As someone who has spent decades in the law profession, studying the legal profession, I have watched with growing frustration as critics and segments of the media attempted to portray John A. Sarcone III as somehow "unqualified" to serve as United States Attorney for the Northern District of New York.
That narrative was flawed from the beginning. Today, it is indefensible. MORE AT In My Opinion: John Sarcone III was always and is qualified.
