hard to keep up
Goodness... this journal is one of those things I put off and put off time and time again... and then when I come back to update it's hard to catch up on everything.. oh well.. I doubt anyone reads this anyways so it's all good in some way.Mmkay - so last time I updated I was talking about New Year's Eve.. Well it turned out to be a blast at Libby's ~ we were really really busy.. and sometimes that doesn't mean good tips but I still had a blast ~ Dad, Mom and Marybeth came to the show - they met all my good friends at Libby's and had a good time as well.. :-) Lots has happened since then as well.. Me and John are friends as of right now.. well, we are more than friends but we're not b/f-g/f or "talking" or any of that... we are good friends.. he is going through such a rough time in his life and I wish I could help him more than I can. We had a long talk last night in my car at Libby's and I just couldn't help but love him - he is such a strong man with so much pride.. I love him to pieces and wish I could do more for him than listen to him.. but if that helps him - to know I'm here to listen and talk with him about it all then I'm glad... he is carrying so much on his shoulders at the moment.. * God Bless him and give him the strength to carry on. *What else... I've become closer to a few more people at Libby's - Joe S. and Joe C. I love dearly and cherish their friendships more than words can express.. Alice and Betty Ann - are such amazing women - WOW is all I can say - to have a job like mine and want to go to work.. even on the crappy tips night I still end up having a good night... I still want to come back next week.. :-) I got a new job - at the new Subway! :-) I was soo excited about that to!! I went in for my interview a few nights ago - and she said the job is yours if you want it - soo.. I was really happy about it - the opening is Feb 11th! and the awesome thing is she said my job at Libby's wouldn't be a problem because it was just that one day and I could work that morning and be home by lunch then work at 4:00 at libbys soo - that's just awesome.. I'm trying to finish up scholarship stuff and applications and so forth... so that is really really really hectic right now - ... and being the procastinator that I am it kinda sucks ... but I'm bound and determined that it will go out by the middle of this week! ... :-) It is great though because Mr. Adams is recommending me for a scholarship worth $2000 and I'm estatic about that! It feels good to know someone has recoginized me in that way to get this kind of scholarship soo.. :-) YAY! I'm not sure about what to do with Showcase this year - I would LOVE to participate but when I went in for this new job we weren't for sure if we were going to have it this year or not - and I did have fun last year... but in the same bit it was soo much time and with the new job I would hate to be like hey this has come up when we're just starting.. soo.. not sure what I'm going to do yet - I would love to see my schedule for work.. that may be what I do... talk to the sponsor this year for the showcase and tell her my situation and then when I get my schedule see if I can't work something out then... ... crosses fingers...I need to start back in church... something you put off and say I need to... but never do or it's always next Sunday - Well I'm headed out of here... I think I wrote a book - But I'll try to update more often.. for my own sanity if nothing else.. *Love*Amber Mae :-)

Tell Them Ministries began in 1976, in New Orleans, Louisiana. At that time, Pastor August Francis was pastoring his second (2nd) church plant, Evangel Temple. During this time, Pastor Francis was impressed of the Lord to begin a radio broadcast. When seeking the Lord for a broadcast name, he was touched by the song, of Andre' Crouch, "Tell Them". The words, "Tell them, even if they don't believe you, tell them, even if they don't receive you. Tell them for me, please tell them for me that I love them...". This broadcast was the beginning of Tell Them Ministries.
In 1980, Pastor Francis turned over this ministry to his assistant pastor and began an evangelistic home missions program to cities, such as Chicago, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Milwaukee, St. Louis, Charlotte, Winston-Salem, Picayune and others. These resulted in evangelistic meetings, street crusades, tent revivals, ministry training and new plants.
Over the last thirty-seven (37) years, Tell Them Ministries has started and pastored eight (8) churches, worked with and strengthen eight (8) ministries and trained over twenty (20) ministers for the work of the Gospel. He has been involved in the Biblical work of the Apostle.
In addition, Bishop Francis has conducted many revivals, work with a major Christian Television Network and hosted several Christian radio and television programs. His desire and the vision of Tell Them is to work with the Pastors, Ministers and smaller Churches to help them to become everything that the Lord has called them to be and accomplish.
Bishop August Francis and Minister Catinia Francis, invite you to become a part of this fellowship of Pastors, Minister and Churches. We require no dues or fees. We do not expect to be "paid" to fellowship. We desire to be a true Biblical fellowship, with an eye to reaching the lost and training the Body of Christ, as the Word of the Lord instructs in Ephesians 4:11-13.
You may contact us by phone at: (409) 499-6951 or via email at:

A Gospel Tract Workshop
By Warrior Richardson, Instructor
Develop drawing skills and learn to use them to present the good news about Jesus Christ in a fun and exciting way.
This workshop consists of eight 4-hour sessions for a total of 32 hours. The first two hours of each session consists of learning to communicate the basics of the Christian faith clearly. The last two hours consist of learning basic drawing skills.
For more information go to www.warriorrichardson.com.
The objective of this book is to help Christians present the Good News about Jesus Christ with their personal testimony. Since every Christian has been born again he has experiential knowledge about a spiritual reality, namely conversion. He has been transformed into a new creature. These things are real. These events actually occurred. Therefore, even if the person who has experienced these things doesn't understand them, he can still tell people what happened.

Available Projects
I have two lights on my garage (one on each side of the door). They are carriage house style fixtures. There is another light at the rear of the house.
I'd like to put the lights on dusk-to-dawn sensors (one sensor for the two front lights and one sensor for the rear light).
I understand the basic principle. The sensor, basically, takes the place of the wall switch. I should probably also mention that the current switches are three-way (one pair for the front and one pair for the rear).
What is the optimal placement for the sensors?
Where should I splice the sensor in to the wiring?
What do I do with the existing wall switches?
Can you recommend a good sensor?
Thanks in advance.
You will want to bypass the switches - especially since they are 3-ways. What can happen if you leave the switched in the circuit is that the power could be turned off - and you'd never know it until well after dark when your lights don't come on. It can work if you convert them to 2-way on/off switches.
The easiest and cleanest way I can think of to do this is to replace your carriage lights with new ones that have an integrated photo switch already installed. Nothing to see that looks like a photo switch and an easy install. Downside of course is more cost - especially a factor if your existing coach lights are in good shape or are expensive.
If you want to keep your existing lights and want all three to operate at exactly the same time, then you have to find the common point in the circuit that is downhill from all three lights. This may or may not be possible depending on how they are wired. You can get 3 sensors and install one at each light - the lights may come on at slightly different times but it will work.
Thanks Jaybee,
The fixtures are in good shape. They're not particularly fancy. They were there when we bought the house around 22 years ago, so replacing them with fixtures that already have a photo switch may be the best way to go.
What do I do with the existing switches; cover them with a blank plate?
Thanks again.
My experience with built in motion detectors and photo cells hasn't been great. If the fixtures are OK, I might look to put in a motion detector separate from the light fixtures. Access will determine how easy of a job this would be.
For safety lighting you may be better off installing a couple of floods with motion detectors on them and leave the lights alone and on a switch. Depending on the layout I'd put the floods up under the soffit to illuminate the walkway whenever someone is going between the garage and the house.
Another though would be to install landscape lighting along the walkway. The low voltage stuff doesn't require conduit, the cable is direct burial and since it is low voltage doesn't need to be buried very deep.
General Disclaimer
Any advice given here is general in nature and is not necessarily valid for your given area. If in doubt check with your local codes enforcement department for what is required when doing electrical, plumbing or structural work on your house. Permits may or may not be required in your area and home owners may not be able to DIY some tasks. I have no way of knowing if you have the skills needed to complete the tasks you are asking about, when in doubt seek professional assistance.
My advice may be worth exactly what you pay me for it. :-) For the record I did not stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night.
If you do wind up taking the switches out of the circuit, yes - you will cover it all with a blank plate.
Thanks Sparky and Jaybee.
I'm not a big fan of the motion sensors. I've seen houses lighting up when the wind blows around here
The low voltage lights are a good option. It's mostly asphalt up by the house though so I don't have a great setup for burying them. Something to think about though.
Wind will trick sensors for sure. Not to mention the odd opossum wandering by as well.
Popeye only reached for the Spinach can as a last resort...
waving tree branches. squirrels. leaves falling. they all charge up the path lights to the Ham Cave, which shines right in the bedroom window in my wife's face.
so I have to crank down the sensitivity until I stumble over the fire ring before it turns on.
modern conveniences, BAH.
sig: if this is a new economy, how come they still want my old-fashioned money?
Since it is finally spring {methinks} sounds like a rework is in order.

We've reached that time of year when TV shows are wrapping up. Season finales of American Idol and Dancing with the Stars are crowning winners. Scripted shows are tying up loose ends, or leaving some storylines hanging off cliffs till the fall. And, networks are discarding low-rated shows to make room for promising new ones.
So what's out, and what's in? Fans of NBC's Chuck will be delighted to hear that their bumbling spy has held on for one more season (though just one more -- it will sign off for good after a 13-episode run next season). ABC's Brothers & Sisters (pictured), however, won't be returning -- despite rumors that they might be granted a shorter season instead of cancellation. Neither will NBC's Outsourced (which failed to attract viewers despite its choice time slot in the network's Thursday night comedy block) or the CW's Smallville (though fans of the show have known for some time that this would be the series' final season). Click here for TV Squad's full list of canceled shows.
Some of these series will be missed, to be sure. But in the world of network TV, it's out with the old, in with the new! Here's what's on deck:
NBC is premiering six new shows in the fall, with six more new ones coming midseason. It's launching two sitcoms on Wednesday night: Up All Night (8 p.m. ET), which stars Christina Applegate and Will Arnett (pictured) as new parents, and Free Agents (8:30 p.m. ET), which stars Hank Azaria as a recent divorced guy who finds love at the office.
The network's prized, post-Office time slot is going to the relationship comedy, Whitney (Thursdays, 9:30 p.m. ET), starring comedian Whitney Cummings. And apparently NBC decided to scratch its three-hour comedy block, because after Whitney, it is debuting a crime drama, Prime Suspect, starring Maria Bello.
NBC's other new crime drama comes with a fantastical twist. Grimm, which will air on Fridays at 9 p.m. ET, focuses on a detective whose beat includes characters from Grimm's fairy tales. Click here to see video previews of NBC's new shows.
Fox's biggest new show is, of course, Simon Cowell's new and uber-publicized The X Factor (Wednesdays, 8 p.m. ET). But that network's also making news with Steven Spielberg's sci-fi drama Terra Nova (Mondays, 8 p.m. ET), which is set in prehistoric times. Two comedies that also sound promising are New Girl (Tuesdays, 9 p.m. ET), starring Zooey Deschanel and I Hate My Teenage Daughter (Wednesdays, 9:30 p.m. ET), starring Jaime Pressly and Katie Finneran. Fox has decided to hold its other big new show, the J.J. Abrams drama Alcatraz, for midseason. Click here to see Fox's fall schedule.
ABC will release its fall schedule on Tuesday, but we already know that the network has gone on a new-show buying spree. Among its most notable acquisitions are a Charlie's Angels reboot; a comedic drama, Good Christian Belles, from the executive producer of Sex and the City; and a new drama from Grey's Anatomy creator Shonda Rhimes called Scandal. Click here for more details.
CBS will debut its fall schedule on Wednesday. Lost fans are eagerly awaiting crime drama Person of Interest, which stars Michael Emerson (a.k.a. The island's Benjamin Linus). It's also picked up a yet-to-be-titled medical drama with a supernatural element that stars Patrick Wilson. For more details, click here.
Stay tuned for more cancellations -- and new show announcements.

Global Smartphone RF Power Amplifier Market 2014-2018
- Language: English
- Published: September 2014
- Region: Global
Texas Health Market Review 2013 finds:
- Texas HMOs enjoy strong profitability and enrollment growth
- Inpatient hospital utilization declines as new hospitals go up
Dallas/Fort Worth – Houston – After years of decline, enrollment in Texas HMOs has increased by 10% in each of the last two years. Profitability for both HMOs and hospitals has been strong, even though inpatient hospital utilization is flat or declining in major regions of the state.
These and other findings are reported in Texas Health Market Review 2013, Allan Baumgarten's eleventh annual report analyzing insurers and hospital systems in the Texas health care market. His report, which was first published in 1999, analyzes data on the HMOs and providers in the state, putting the data in the context of health reform and other developments driving changes in the market. Baumgarten is a Minnesota-based independent analyst, who also published and contributed to state health market reports in 11 other states: Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, Ohio and Wisconsin. The new report compares Texas HMOs to their counterparts in those states on several key measures.
The new report finds:
- HMO enrollment in the state has grown strongly in the past two years, and they now have more than 4 million members, the most ever. While enrollment in employer HMO plans has dropped to half a million, enrollment in HMOs contracting for the Medicaid and Children's Health Insurance programs has grown to more than 3 million. The largest HMOs in the state are now national Medicaid/CHIP plans such as AmeriGroup and Centene (doing business here as Superior Health Plan), and Texas Children's Health Plan.
- Medicare Advantage HMO plans have also enjoyed double-digit enrollment growth and have been the most profitable line of business for HMOs. More than half a million Texas seniors are now in HMO plans, and UnitedHealthcare's senior plans (formerly known as Secure Horizons) are the largest with more than 200,000 seniors. As a group, these senior plans enjoyed underwriting income of $460 million in 2012, and UnitedHealthcare alone had $310 million of that. The average operating margin for those plans was 7.4% and the average medical loss ratio was 82.3%. HealthSpring, which was acquired by CIGNA, had underwriting income of $74.4 million.
- Medicaid plans overall lost $74.3 million on their operations in 2012. While plans sponsored by hospitals like Parkland Community and Driscoll Children's were strongly profitable in 2012, four HMOs – Superior Health Plan, Molina Healthcare, UnitedHealthcare Community Plan and Community Health Choice – had combined operating losses of $161 million. Though Texas continues to expand it use of managed care for aged and disabled Medicaid recipients, creating a significant business opportunity for HMOs, it will not expand eligibility for Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act. By some estimates, implementing an expansion would reduce the number of uninsured by up to 1.3 million in the next five years. More than 6 million Texas residents are currently uninsured.
- Expansion of hospital systems, both investor-owned and non-profit, continues through mergers, acquisitions and new construction, as hospitals seek to expand their geographic reach, improve efficiency and quality and strengthen their negotiating ability with insurers. By far, the largest deal is the recently closed merger of the Baylor Health Care System in the Dallas-Fort Worth area with the Scott and White system, based in Temple. To gain access to patients in developing areas, hospital systems are investing billions in new patient towers, specialty centers and freestanding emergency department. As a result of this construction boom, there are now five acute care hospitals in Williamson County (north of Austin). Near Houston there are now five acute care hospitals in The Woodlands area and five in the Sugar Land area, while there are 14 acute and specialty care hospitals in Denton County.
- But while construction of new hospitals and other facilities continues at a rapid pace, growth in inpatient utilization has slowed and even fallen in some areas. For example, there are 500 new inpatient beds in acute care hospitals in the Dallas-Fort Worth area since 2008. Data from the state's annual hospital survey for 2011 shows that the number of inpatient days had fallen by 100,000 or 3%. On an average day in 2011, 62% of inpatient hospital beds were full compared to 65.9% in 2008. Similarly, inpatient days in Houston area hospitals decreased and average inpatient occupancy dropped from 66.9% in 2008 to 63.8% in 2011.
Hospitals continue to enjoy strong and growing profitability. For example, hospitals in the Dallas-Fort Worth area had net income of $1.584 billion in 2011, which was 10.3% of net patient revenues Baylor and HCA were the most profitable. Tables in the report provide detail by hospital and system. Led by HCA, Houston-area hospitals reported net income of $1.8 billion in 2011, an average margin of 11.9%. In San Antonio, hospitals reported net income of just under $500 million, of 10.9% of net patient revenues. Austin area hospitals had net income of $544.1 million in 2011, which is 15.5% of net patient revenues. Both the Seton and HCA-St. David's systems were strongly profitable. SHOW LESS READ MORE >

Hi All. I was hoping to get in out check out conditions today but it rained all morning so the roads are too soft. Tonight it is supposed to dip to minus 5 and flurries tomorrow. I will be on the go bright and early for a ride and will be posting an update by lunch time. If I were to guess I'd say we are reduced to roads and trails only. The open country looks skinned. If it stays around zero and we get some flurries at least to keep machines cool it should be OK for the weekend……just for the roads and trails.
Update on Thursday MorningJanuary 15th, 2014
Jan 11th Good ConditionsJanuary 11th, 2014
Conditions are good as of today. The breakdown is the roads and trails are in great shape including the trail to Hodges. Most people, including me wouldn't bother trying to pick our way to the very top as the snow is not there but getting to the last shoulder is easy going….even two up. The cutovers need more snow but you can get around. The bogs are in great shape but could use some powder in places to soften the ride. With the exception of 9 Mile Bog though, if you are breaking your own path the there is maybe 8 inches of powder. The ice is much better since Tuesdays rain. Saw lots of riders today, more than I have seen in a long time. Broke the trail up Hodges Pass today. A few stucks with some machines but the challenge was fun. Stopped on the second pond but with the right crowd and machines there is enough snow to keep going. Saw 4 lonely caribou on 9 Mile today. Most of the animals have moved off to avoid the cold. Now I keep hearing a lot of rain for this area for the next few days but I just checked the forecast and I am only seeing 10mm in the morning and only 2mm for the rest of the day….then cold again. We don't need this rain now but if that's it it wont do any damage. Lets hope that's it! As for the picture of the lady on the ground, she was a casualty of being a passenger of mine. Two up was proving difficult for some getting over the first climb at Hodges Pass. I offered to go back down and bring her up. I guess she didn't have much to hold onto lol. Of course I had to get a snap before helping her up…..a good sport!
Excellent ConditionsJanuary 4th, 2014
The snow has been piling up and settling so you can go pretty well anywhere you want now. The very top of Hodges would be difficult as the snow has been blowing off so there would be some picking around to get there. Had a group of somewhat novice riders out yesterday with two rentals. It was an easy day for me and always a pleasure to introduce people to the pleasure of riding. Needless to say they had a ball. As usual saw a few caribou but this time right at the base of Hodges. Not the first time I saw boos here but rare. I am sure the cold is driving them down from 9 mile bog. Also in yesterdays news was the river backed up farther than I have ever seen it before. Look out Badger if this cold weather keeps up! I took a couple snaps to post. The picture taken showing the ice upon the deck way leading to the fireplace was taken at ground level. If I had been standing you would see that the ice is nearly as high as the top of the light pole along shore. I would estimate that the ice is 30 feet thick at least! Not far off usual but higher for sure. Like I said in November…..looks like a good old fashioned winter so get your sleds out!
Good conditionsDecember 28th, 2013
Beautiful Day today. Conditions are not bad. The roads a good going. Rough ground like cutovers can use some rain then more snow though. I had fun ripping around the ditches and through the woods ect but you have to be careful for rocks. Its shaping up to be an awesome winter! Saw a few caribou on 9 mile which included several calves which is great to see.
Warm Temps PleaseDecember 18th, 2013
We need some warm weather! Unfortunately, the last storm was not near as severe as our November treat. It's been a long time since I saw the same amount of snow fall both around town and into Hodges but that's what happened last week. I was too busy to run in after the storm but went in last night to check conditions hoping for better. There is a fair bit of snow but it is so light we were just cutting right though it and clipping the road a little more than I would have liked. That didn't stop us from puttin on about 40km though and it was a nice ride except for that it was night and the snow was constantly flying over the bonnet and covering the lights. Once a few more machines beat the roads down or we get a mild and then cold again the roads will be good going but ditch banging is not possible yet. On the plus side the ice is at least 6 inches (three days ago so likely much more now with near minus 30 last night). Also there seems to be lots of good snow forecast on the way. Looks like we are in for a good old fashioned winter! For those of you who might head west I am hearing lots of snow but you had better have a mountain sled and a strong back. I might head over for a rip soon.
Not FitDecember 2nd, 2013
The rain did a lot more damage than I thought it would. Just took a dart on quad up the ridge access road. There was some bare and snow covered sections. Although the snow covered sections were improving as I drove in it is not worth the ride. I spoke to a friend on the way out who had done the loop the day before. He said much the same. He did say there from just above cornfield to about half way around Ridge Road there was tons but once again getting there is not worth the hassle. Perfect conditions for a 12 Elan! Speaking of which I am looking for a 12 Elan for my kids if anyone out there knows for one LOL. Stay tuned for updates.
Lot of RainNovember 30th, 2013
As you all know we had a lot of rain the other day…24 hours of pouring rain with little slack. Bad news is we lost a lot of snow. Good news is I passed I was in Cornfield Road yesterday and the access road at the sign is still snow covered with maybe 4 inches. If this is covered I suspect there must be snow covered enough to get into Ridge Road. I think once you get in there there is still some good riding but I cant say for sure. I f I had some time on my hands I would definitely try a ride but I have been so busy building my basement before the cold arrives I haven't had time to go in. If anybody does head in please email so pictures and comments so I can post them on the blog. Some more good news is there is more snow on the way early this week. Some borderline rain but it will likely be all snow into Hodges.
Todays RideNovember 25th, 2013
Only 4 days riding so far this year and all the old aches and pains are back! I just cant ride along….I have to be rippin along looking for trouble. That's what its all about for me LOL. Anyways, another awesome day on the snow. Chris Tuck and I headed in well before lunch "lookin for trouble". I think I was more the instigator there…sorry Chris, but I hope you had fun anyways LOL. Conditions are the same. Although the snow is settling more each day, when you get closer to Hodges it is still dry deep powder and snowing fairly regularly. We took our time going up today and ripped up some side roads and found some nice tight treed hill climbing…..lots of fun and no trouble to find many routes up the hills. Met up with the Caine's Gang…..(that's what I am going to call them for now on) about half way out. From what I can see on Tom Caine's Facebook, they had a great day. We decided to head on out….I have to learn to pace myself as I ride like this most everyday and lots of winter left….especially this year. Exiting early start!
Family RideNovember 24th, 2013
Had a beautiful day riding here in Central. Still no power here at the chalets….no better way to pass the time waiting! We went around the other side of Hodges this time to check conditions. 9 Mile bog is good to go however the larger ponds are not frozen and the smaller ones are likely not safe. Its hard to tell what's deep and what's not with these smaller holes so best to avoid or rip. Still some grass and shrubs showing in windswept areas but plenty snow to move quickly in any direction. As usual around the edges there is plenty snow for carving and jumping. The road on the way in has a few spots where there is not much snow and others that has several feet depending on exposure to wind. Down at the chalets it was hovering around zero but up on 9 Mile and Ridge Road there was plenty of snow blowing around reducing visibility but making some nice powder. Group of riders coming from Gander and maybe a couple from the West coming out tomorrow….not a tour….just going for a rip. Should get some good pics to share. The picture of the fellow (my brother) standing on the stones was taken last week on a quad trip to the Gaff Quarry…very neat place. From what I understand the Gaff Topsails are buried so I hope to get there sometime this week.
November 22 and awesome ridingNovember 23rd, 2013
Just got back from an awesome night ride into Hodges. November 22 and I would have to say its one of the best times I ever had carving! The snow here at the chalets is 8 inches at the deepest. Just a short ways in it is 3 feet and in much deeper in places. Being a night ride and first ride of the season we stuck to the road first but it wasn't long before we started swing down into the ditches. We were not well prepared as we thought it would be an easy road ride just to say we did it. No shovel, rope or bungee. But all three would have come in handy tonight! I lost count of how many times we got stuck. Mostly hopping out of the deep snow to carve in the opposite direction and landing on too sharp of an angle and going down on our side. What a riot! Keith Peyton was with me as well as my little guy Jack. Pretty hard carving with a 7 year old on the front but he is used to it and cheered me on for full action! I have a few pics posted here I took with my camera but the best pics are still on Keith's iPhone. I will post his tomorrow when I get them. We do have two chalets left tomorrow night but we haven't got power back yet so availability is not for sure. Supposed to have power by 5:30. However, if you ware willing to do the drive load em up and come on out for a rip! You will be amazed at the amount of snow! If you haven't seen the November issue of Sledworthy with the Jan 5th cover shot taken on Hodges check it out but there is much more snow here now than then.

A concrete barrier on Fresh Pond Road in Middle Village—that some residents see as a safety hazard—was placed on the street by the Department of Transportation more than two years ago, and will remain in place for another four years, according to the agency.
At that location, Fresh Pond Road is technically referred to as a "bridge structure" since the Long Island Rail Road runs underneath it.
On the sidewalk, there is a hole in the deck of the bridge covered by a metal plate. The barrier was put in place "to prevent vehicular traffic from rolling over the plate, potentially creating an unsafe condition for pedestrians on the sidewalk," according to a statement from the DOT.
But motorists say the barrier is a hazard to anyone driving north on Fresh Pond Road, and drivers must swerve in order to miss the obstacle.
"The bottom line is if you're going straight, you're going to bang right into it," said Glendale resident Bud Livingston. "I hope that never happens, it will be a very peculiar lawsuit if it did."
Livingston has been in touch with various city agencies and the Long Island Rail Road since November of 2004, trying to rectify what he sees as a dangerous situation.
Long discussions with 311 operators and the Long Island Rail Road did not help to rectify the problem.
It turns out that a capital reconstruction project is scheduled for fiscal year 2009. The project had been scheduled to begin next year, however, "due to various design and land acquisition complications, the project has been delayed until FY '09," according to the transportation department's statement.
An engineer for the agency, who declined to give his name due to city guidelines, said the reconstruction is complicated for a number of reasons.
For one thing, a Chevrolet dealer directly across the street owns a portion of the land that must be acquired in order to start the project. There are also gas mains, water mains and traffic lights that run under the asphalt. The agency is now in the process of finalizing plans, according to the DOT engineer.
Yet, the agency maintains that the condition of the bridge and the plate are safe and that engineers conduct biweekly inspections at the location.
But for community members, who were told that the renovation would begin next year, that answer is not good enough. Vincent Arcuri, Jr., chairperson of Community Board 5, has been following the situation for a long time and is more concerned about the bridge collapsing than the jersey barrier.
Oversized trucks making turns at the location may have caused the hole, he said, and any more stress could lead to a collapse.
"They should complete the design, get it funded and get it started," Arcuri said. "They need to do the renovation. They need to do something quickly."

Episcopal Same-Sex Marriage Bible Selections: Doin' What They Say the Fundies Do!
The vile, hate-filled, sermon-stalking monster known as the Underground Pewster is at it again.
He's explored the Bible lessons attached to the new same-sex marriage materials of the Episcopal Church. Guess what? They pull passages out of context as "proof texts," in some cases overturning the obvious meaning of a lesson to say the opposite of what it means. You know, just like those proof-texting-stupid-fundamentalists that we are so unlike in our great scholarship and deeper understanding of the Bible.
The low-light of the new thing is the ravaging of The Letter to the Galatians, as Pewster explains:
And what would Paul do if he saw his letter to the Galatians carved up so as to omit verses 15-21 (as it is suggested to use Galatians 5:14, 22-26)?
15 If you bite and devour each other, watch out or you will be destroyed by each other.
16 So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. 17 For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other, so that you are not to do whatever you want. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
19 The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; 20 idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions 21 and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God. - The omitted verses (NIV)
I guess most couples will pick the next choice because it so fits the theology.
21 Dear friends, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God 22 and receive from him anything we ask, because we keep his commands and do what pleases him. 23 And this is his command: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us. 1 John 3:18-24
Show me where He commanded us to love one another in that way.
Pewster, you are a walking case for Canonical discipline of lay people. In discipline clubs. In TEC basements.

The UGP is the master of finding the key verses that TEC scrubbed to distort what Scripture is saying. I have seen some of his comments on how TEC has rearranged the readings in the lectionary also. I guess it is consistent with their idea of the "contextualization". TEC has essentially abandoned Scripture, tradition and reason when they don't support their unbalanced agenda of inclusion, social justice and earth worship.
Oh, goodie. Does this mean I can indulge in hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, etc. as long as my heart doesn't condemn me?
#1 Fr. Dale - yes, he has a charism for that!
#2 slanehill - I don't see why not. And you should be able to walk into a TEC parish with a voodoo doll of someone you hate and have it blessed.
#3 Jeffersonian - careful, you might wind up in charge of those lay discipline clubs with such a command of the approved language.
Excellent, Fr. Tim! That should liven up Sunday mornings. Although my bishop would not be pleased AT ALL. He's one of those fundies, you know! (I am profoundly grateful to have such a "fundamentalist" bishop.)
I knew they were in trouble when they made Revelation 22:18+19 "optional" in the Lectionary. That set the stage for all that has happened since.
Timothy+- I think you are being rather hard on Daniel in #7. I believe his comments are exempt from prosecution under the recently passed "trans, etc" resolutions. All he does here is to suggest that other "expressions of gender" (in this case, the leather expression) are acceptable, just like TEC newdoctine doublegoodspeak recommends.
I thought that the lay discipline club was an organization of self appointed revisionists blessed by the bishop to enforce discipline. You know, who will go out in matching rainbow shirts (brown is just too ordinary) every Sunday morning to ensure that any orthodox keep up their pledges to the penny and remain otherwise silent. By whatever means necessary.

10 Technology Predictions for 2013
Apple Makes a MacBook Air That Runs iOS
Going back to the last prediction, Apple has been looking to move away from Intel for its MacBook lines, and it sure isn't going to give away any of its industry-leading profit margins when it comes to owning the whole device.
Recent rumors suggested that Apple would distance itself from Intel in its MacBooks, though not for a few years.Apple reportedly has big plans for its chip business, now headed by Bob Mansfield as part of the Technologies unit. Technologies combines all of Apple's wireless teams and Apple's semiconductors group, which according to the press release regarding Scott Forstall leaving, the semiconductor unit has "ambitious plans for the future." Apple has been trying to merge OS X, its desktop operating system with iOS, its mobile operating system, and has done so with some success. I don't expect a full-fledged iOS-enabled MacBook Air, but perhaps one that runs both operating systems. We could potentially see OS X become so iOS-like that users will have a tough time telling the difference.

St. Fabian Comments
Eusebius, born just a few years after Fabian's death, tells us how Fabian came to Rome after Pope Anteros died in 236. A layperson, and not a very important one, he may have come for the same reason many still come to Rome today during a papal election: concern for the future of the faith, curiosity about the new pope, a desire to grieve for the pope who had passed. Seeing all the important people gathered to make this momentous decision must ... Continue Reading

St. Fabian, please pray for us to be guided by the Holy Spirit in our day to day activities, choices and decisions.

Dear Saint Fabian,
please pray over my friend Steven. Teach him and guide him to understanding the divine peace of the Lord, the peace that he once knew and has now turn from. Please love him because that is what he seeks most.
Thank you
and God bless all on this post

Pope St. Fabian, please pray for me to be gifted with the Holy Spirit and realize the happiness that this world cannot provide.

What a gift these saints are to us ! They not only inspire us by their example and their lives but give us the courage to keep on being faithful to Christ....no matter what ! In those trying times in life this quote serves to reminds me of that "God promises a safe landing, not a calm passage"

Once again we are told just how much the Holy Spirit truly directs us in our lives here. Is it not uplifting and relieving to know that we are guided in such a simple and plain way towards where our Lord God wants and needs us to be?
2 years ago
For someone who was born on the day the feast of St Fabian is celebrated i feel very honoured.I believe GOD used him to do very special things.This can be seen during his reign whereby the emperor, Philip, was friendly to Christians and not only was the persecution stopped but Christians experienced acceptance. I really feel so honoured to be born on the 20th January.I will do my best to live by his example such that the world will become one of PEACE and not conflicts.
2 years ago
Pope Saint Fabian, Help us to see that the only true peace is the peace Christ brings. Never let us choose to deny our beliefs simply to avoid an unpleasant situation. Amen
2 years ago
Dear St. Fabian, happy am I to read about your remarkable, saintly and humble life, though raised the highest office of the Catholic Church. Like you, though unworthy as I am, I would like your holy and powerful intercession, today to receive the gift of peace from the Holy Spirit. I would like to take away with me the poignant lesson of true peace, that it does not guarantee a life "without conflict or suffering". Bring me peace under the trying circumstances of everyday life. Please pray for my siblings and I to behave in a gentle and charitable manner towards one another, rather than to seek prominence and attention. Help us dear saint. I'm also reminded of my dear friend who was named after you. Bless him and his family too. Beloved saint, I have had the privilege of visiting St. Sebastiano, outside the walls of Rome. My family have been blessed abundantly. Continue to give us your pastoral care, Bless Martin, Joanne and Sharon and their families. May the peace of the Holy Spirit be us and abide in us always. Amen.

I am expectant with a boy and i have chosen Fabian as his name. I am satisfied knowing who he was. Hope my Boy follows his footsteps

Palo Alto City Council unanimously chose tonight (tuesday) vice mayor Yiaway Yeh as the city's first Chinese American mayor. "I am really honored," said Yeh. "We have seen so much growth of the Asian population within Palo Alto. I am just absolutely privileged to be able to serve in this capacity."
Yeh named developing Palo Alto's infrastructure as his priority as mayor. He believes that investment in infrastructure will continue to attract tech and business talents to the city.
Yeh was born in San Francisco and grew up in the Bay Area. His parents are both first generation immigrants from Taiwan. Yeh holds a Master in Public Policy from Harvard's Kennedy School of Government.
Yeh, 33, calls on more young Chinese Americans to get involved in political work. He said, " There is so much potential, so much need for good smart people to come to politics, to come into local government. Local government is the level of government that most impacts your daily life. Who we have serving at local government will define so many people's quality of life."
Many Chinese American elected officials attended tonight's event and congratulated Yeh. "Chinese Americans getting elected as mayors in Silicon Valley is now becoming a norm. We are really excited to see Yiaway to be the mayor tonight," said Gilbert Wong, former mayor of Cupertino.

Rising through the ranks he was heavily involved in officer training and the development of competence based standards for incident commanders during the 1990s, completing a research topic on effective team performance as part of his Brigade Command Course. This interest in incident command continues to date and has led to the publication of a number of articles and collaborative work with other public and private sector companies.
John holds a Master in Business Administration and is a Fellow of the Chartered Management Institute and the Institute of Fire Engineers. He continues to invest in his professional and personal development, completing the Cabinet Officers Top Management Programme in 2007 and the Windsor Leadership Trust Experience and Leadership Course in 2010.
For 3 years John was a member of the Presidential team of the Chief Fire Officers' Association, an organisation that plays a national role in policy formulation on behalf of the Service. During his tenure he served as President during 2009/10 and worked with senior officials and politicians to influence thinking on fire and rescue matters. Engagement with the media and frequent public speaking was a major element of the role. John continues to play an active role in CFOA as Chair of CNR Ltd.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
