Netflix in Beaver County

The Beaver County Times’ Scott Tady reporting that a new Netflix series by the director and executive producer of the hit show “Stranger Things” titled “I Am Not OK With This” will film scenes in Beaver this June.

Beaver Borough Manager Dan Madgar met with a representative of the series who said producers were looking to film along Bank Street – which is the same neighborhood where parts of the 2000 movie “The Wonder Boys” with Michael Douglas and Tobey Maguire were filmed.

“I Am Not OK With This” is looking for background actors to portray high school and college-aged students, football players, fans, basketball players and prom attendees for scenes shot throughout the Pittsburgh area. They are also looking for cars no older than model year 2000 and adults to portray town citizens.

ACLU Files Lawsuit

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) — A federal lawsuit filed Friday asks a judge to block an Alabama law that outlaws almost all abortions, the most far-reaching attempt by a conservative state to seek new restrictions on the procedure.

The American Civil Liberties Union and Planned Parenthood filed the lawsuit on behalf of abortion providers seeking to overturn the Alabama law that would make performing an abortion at any stage of pregnancy a felony punishable by up to 99 years or life in prison for the abortion provider. The only exception would be when the woman’s health is at serious risk.

The law is set to take effect in November unless blocked by a judge.

The lawsuit notes that supporters of the law have acknowledged it is unconstitutional under current Supreme Court precedent.

Supporters of the Alabama law have said they expected a lawsuit and expected to initially lose in court, but they hope the appeal could eventually land before the U.S. Supreme Court.

Break-In Cleaning

Maybe you wish this would happen to you? Someone broke into a home in Marlborough, Massachusetts last week and – not only did they not steal or damage anything – they left the place spotless.

Nate Roman says that when he returned home from work he could tell a stranger had been there.

Nothing was missing, but the 44-year-old Roman noticed the beds were made, the rugs vacuumed and the toilets scrubbed. They even crafted origami roses on the toilet paper rolls.

He called the experience “weird and creepy” and contacted police.

Sgt. Daniel Campbell says that the department hasn’t heard of similar episodes and that there are no suspects.

Roman says he may have left his back door unlocked. He thinks perhaps a housekeeping service went to his home by mistake.
