(Conway Borough, PA) If you took a drive through New Brighton early Sunday afternoon, you might have caught a sneak peak at a vintage fire engine on its way home. The Conway Volunteer Fire Department is excited to announce the return of their 1938 Darley Fire Engine after 50 years. The department donated the truck when it replaced it in the 1970s. According to a statement made on the Conway Volunteer Fire Department Facebook page, Chief Daniel Byrne said Lisa Davis from the Satellite Beach Fire Department reached out to them to track down the original owners. Byrne told her it was theirs and he went on to talk with Satellite Beach Fire Chief Dave Abernathy. Conway offered to buy the truck back and Satellite Beach told them they wanted to donate it as long as Conway covered the expenses to have it transported. Tow-Tegrity ultimately doubled down on the deal and offered to haul the fire engine home for free, and it arrived at the Tow-Tegrity lot early Sunday. The fire engine was escorted to the Conway Volunteer Fire Department Fire House shortly after 2pm. The truck is still in good condition and the county can expect to see it in parades.


IN FRONT OF A SOLD OUT CROWD AT BEAVER HIGH GYM THE LINCOLN PARK LEAOPARDS BEAT THE BEAVER BOBCATS IN GAME THAT WAS CLOSE FOR THE FIRST 2 QUARTERS. WITH ONLY 2 POINTS BETWEEN THE TWO AT THE END OF THE FIRST IT SEEMED IT COULD BE A REPEAT OF THE LAST GAME WHICH LINCOLN PARK GOT THE LAST SHOT TO WIN A GREAT GAME. BUT LINCOLN PARK KNEW COMING INTO BEAVER IN FRONT OF A SOLD OUT CROWD THAT THEY BETTER TRY TO KEEP THE BOBCATS FROM GETTING ANY RYTHYM AND BY MID SECOND QUARTER THEY STARTED TO PUT SOME DISTANCE BETWEEN THE HIGHLY RESPECTED BEAVER TEAM. THE LEAOPARDS WENT INTO THE HALF WITH A LEAD OF 37-28 AND YOU COULD SEE MAYBE LINCOLN PARK WAS GETTING IN THE GROOVE AND SOME OF THEIR STAR POWER WAS STARTING TO SHOW. IN THE SECOND HALF BEAVER MAY HAVE BEEN PLAYING A LITTLE BIT LIKE A TEAM THAT MAY HAVE BEEN GETTING SOME HEAVY ARMS BECAUSE THE SHOTS JUST WEREN’T FALLING AND THE LEAOPARDS WERE POURING ON PRESSURE AND THE BEAVER BOBCATS WEREN’T LOOKING LIKE THEMSELVES WITH THEIR SECOND TOUGH GAME IN AS MANY WEEKS. WE ALL CAN EXPECT TO SEE LINCOLN PARK IN THE POST SEASON AND FOR A VERY GOOD BEAVER TEAM THEY NEED TO GET BACK TO THE BASICS AND SHAKE THIS GAME OFF AGAINST WHAT I WOULD THINK IS ONE OF BEST TEAMS THEY WILL SEE ALL YEAR.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Eight months, 126 formal interviews and a 23-page report later, the Supreme Court has failed to discover who leaked a draft of the court’s opinion overturning abortion rights. The report released by the court Thursday is the apparent culmination of an investigation ordered by Chief Justice John Roberts a day after the May leak of the draft to Politico. The leak touched off protests at justices’ homes and raised concerns about their security. And the leak came more than a month before the final opinion by Justice Samuel Alito was released. The report provides a window into the court’s internal processes and recommends some places where the court can improve.

In just the past month there have been about 50,000 job cuts across the technology sector. Large and small tech companies went on a hiring spree over the past several years due to a surge in demand for their products, software and services with millions of people working remotely. However, even with all of the layoffs announced in recent weeks, most tech companies are vastly larger than they were three years ago. Here’s a look at some of the companies that have announced layoffs so far.

Three active-duty Marines have been charged in the riot at the U.S. Capitol. Court records show that Micah Coomer, Joshua Abate and Dodge Dale Hellonen were arrested this week on misdemeanor charges after fellow Marines helped investigators identify them in footage among the pro-Trump mob on Jan. 6, 2021. No defense lawyers for the men were listed in the court docket, so it was not immediately clear whether they have attorneys to comment on their behalf. A Marine Corps spokesman said it is aware the allegations and “is fully cooperating with appropriate authorities.” Dozens of people charged in the riot have military backgrounds, but these three are among only a handful on active duty.

WASHINGTON (AP) — A half century after Roe v. Wade, March for Life supporters are celebrating the dismantling of that constitutional right to abortion and heralding the political struggle set loose by the Supreme Court’s decision. Meantime President Joe Biden has pledged to do all in his power to restore that right. The first March for Life since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in June came with a new focus. Instead of concentrating their attention on the court, the marchers vowed to push for action from the building directly across the street: the U.S. Capitol.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Look who’s in line for coveted House committee assignments. The most far-right House Republicans and early opponents of Speaker Kevin McCarthy. Even embattled new Rep. George Santos. Some are set to serve on the high-profile committee investigating President Joe Biden’s administration. Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia and Paul Gosar of Arizona will get to serve on committees now that Republicans have dislodged Democrats from the majority. When Democrats were in charge, both lawmakers were booted from their assignments for being too extreme. Santos, who has acknowledged lying to New York voters about his past, has picked up two committee assignments.
