Padilla to finish Larap road by November

Mayor Ricarte Padilla discusses with the officers of LaPIMa and JPNHSAA his administration’s development program during a courtesy call-meeting last Friday. – Facebookposting

CONFIDENT of staying for another three years in office, Jose Panganiban town mayor Ricarte Padilla has assured Larap residents that the cemented road linking their barangay to the town poblacion would be completed by November.
Padilla made this known at a meeting last Friday with the officers of Lapima (Laking PIM Ako) and JP National High School Alumni Association, who made a courtesy call to the town executive during his brief stay in Metro Manila on an official government business.
The mayor said road-building across the municipality was in full swing and that donations of cement for the road project continued.
Sometime last April, Padilla told MWBuzz that the cementing of Larap road would reach the bridge at Sparline by May this year, the local election month.
He told the officers that the cementing of the remaining 3km of rough roads beginning from the Sparline bridge to the center of Larap will be completed towards yearend, most likely November.
Larap, which hosted the former Philippine Iron Mines (PIM) until 1975, has a population of close to 5,500, according to a government population census in 2010.
Although Larap was the major source of revenue for the municipality during the heyday of the iron mine till the mid-70s, the six kilometer of bumpy road linking it to the town proper was never cemented by the local governments those days.
It was only when the administration of Padilla came in July of 2010 that an honest-to-goodness road cementing program that aims to pave in concrete most of the municipality’s 81km of town and baranggay roads was firmed up and finally launched.
Padilla also gave the Lapima officers a sneak preview of development projects that he hoped to accomplish at the end of his second term in 2016 as well as those that he hoped to put in place at the end of 2019 should he get a third term in office.
The Lapima officers who took up various concerns with the mayor regarding mambulao included Lapima board members Samuel Tatom and Guito Belza and JPNHSAA chairman Jun Espana, vice-presidents Cynthia Ybarola and Thine Book and former Larap resident Tony Tatom.
According to Ybarola, the group discussed with Padilla how alumni association and LaPIMa could help their hometown and kababayans.
She said that Padilla shared with them the latest accomplishments of his administration as well as the roadmap to continuous improvement and full development of Mambulao up to 2019.
Padilla is seeking re-election unopposed, thus assuring him of election victory.

  1. According to Mayor Padilla, the 2-lane road concreting project is funded up to Sparline...but he wil finish the remaining stretch to Larap on November 2013.

  2. shame on you Fred. LAPIMA has no budget so with the JP high school alumni association. the budget came from pnoy budget 50M allocated to Jose Panganiban barangays implemented by governor tallado not from your beloved mayor dong padilla. talagang reporter ka nga pariho kau ni percy ostonal partner in false publication for padilla's sake. Im sure Governor tallado is already aware of this.

    1. the was a road project at San Rafael initiated by Tallado... after a few rains it crumbled and the locals were very mad at tallado... what happened? pano nangyari na ang bagong kalsada eh nagkadurog-durog sa patak ng ulan.... ? alam ba ni tallado yung project na yon? may tarpaulin pa siya sa bungad ng kalsada... the road cementeing project is an initiative by the mnicipal government with help from the people through cement donation... dong built a kolometer of road in Mambulao for only 5 million a sharp contrast to the 10 million which tallado and company would bill the people via the tax money... how did this happen? laki talaga ng negosyod sa kalsada...

    2. you are becoming an ally of tallado ... do you symphatize with him... he got a lot of hokos pokos that included mining permits ... kaya siya binanatan ng dilg...

    3. do you believe that tallado would allot 50million to mambulao for road projects? imposible ... ang alam ng taong ipinagawa ni talladong kalsada na may tarpaulin pa siya sa bungad ay ang sa san rafael na nagkadurong durog after a few rains last year... bakid nagkaganoon... he's a shame to the community ... it was all over the facebook mambulao... if you did not know about it... i did not say that lapima and the jp alumni funded the proejct... pls read my story very well... these two association just received progress report from padilla during a meeting in makati sometime ago...

In this bed I have lain for almost a decade.

I have not made any babies in it, maybe one, but probably not, as the third child was probably procreated on a family room floor, or a couch, far away from the cries of the smaller children, in a moment of hurriedness where I said, “Strictly clinical! Baby-making sex only!”

This bed has held sick childen.

It has nursed hangovers.

If only I could count the hours in which I have slept.

It has lumps. It is uncomfortable. I wonder if I have spent more hours in it than out of it in the past ten years? Probably so.

Today, we put this bed out to pastures. For a new one.

I wish I wrote this when I first thought of writing this. When I first woke from the bed I was sleeping in, when it was fresh in my mind, what I wanted to say about the bed I had slept in for so long. This companion of mine who will be mine no longer. It departs today. For a new lover comes.

My Westin Heavenly Bed.

Complete with 12-3/4 pillow-top. Oh how I will roll around in it. How I will luxuriate in its pillowiness. Is that even a word? I say it is! I am afraid to share the new bed with my family. I guess I will have to share the new bed with my husband right?

The old bed came along about the same time as my daughter. I spent 11 long overdue pregnant days with Tukey laying in that bed, waiting for something to happen, for a contraction, for water to break, for that baby to come.

Nothing. For 11 days. I lay there. Convinced that baby would never come. I remember the one day I didn’t leave that bed at all except for the one time I went downstairs and ate 3 or 4 Dunkin Donuts, then trudged back up to that horrid (not so horrid back then as it was new) bed, and got in.

I stayed there the whole day. Waiting for a baby to come. I stayed there and read. Probably cried. But mostly waited and slept. Waited for a baby who was 11 days late to get out of my belly.

Then, after that baby came, nine days after, I was back in that bed. Again. Crying. Crying about buildings that had crashed. Airplanes that had shattered the glass and steel, the world, that day. I lay in that same bed again. Crying. Holding that baby. In that bed. Wondering what the purpose would be to ever get out of that bed. Why bring a child into a terrible world like this, I had wondered.

And since then. That bed. That bed has nursed children to health. Has held crying babies. Has cuddled and nurtured and snuggled and tended when nightmares have been so bad there’s just no sense of sending them back to their own rooms now is there? When it makes more sense for someone else, someone much bigger and less scared to go sleep in another bed just this once, because this one tiny little child might just need this comfort tonight.

This bed has done that for these children.

So, while it is lumpy and crappy and there has been nightmares and sleepless nights, there have been memories and a safe haven in that bed that we are sending out.

There have been dreams and chats and laughter. There have been tears and quiet fights and lovemaking, sometimes loud, mostly quiet, oftentimes silly, because it’s us, and we’re silly and we laugh, and this is our life and it’s our bed, and we’ve made it and we’ve lied in it, oh, no we haven’t … we’ve never lied in it, but we have laid in it. We don’t lie in our bed. We tell the truth in our bed.

And, our new bed will arrive today, and I’m going to embrace it like I’ve never embraced a piece of furniture, and I’m going to love it like a dog lover loves a new pet, and I’m going to care for it like a florist cares for its peonies, and I’m going to treat it like I want it to treat me!

With respect and kindness and goodness! No jumping on this new bed please! No wrinkling of the new sheets please! Do not sit on the comforter the wrong way please! Shower before going to bed please!

We will make new plans in this bed; we will continue to raise our family from the foot of this bed. This bed will be the cornerstone to the future of what is to come. Yes, no babies will be made here, but dreams will be hatched.

Oh yes, dreams will be hatched!

Reagan said...

Cheers to a beautiful beginning!

Feisty Irish Wench said...

whodathunk a bed would have so much said about it?

Michelle said...

Awww, I hope you have as wonderful a relationship with the new bed -- it sound delicious to those of us with mattresses from 1997. Just remember the love you feel now when you're ready to dump it for a younger, fresher model ;)

morninglight mama said...

Hope you have lots of fun hanging a shelf in that bed.

MaNiC MoMMy™ said...

In the bed right now, NOT HANGING ANY SHELF, hahaha. But Mr. Manic is sneezing like a maniac--wouldn't it be just our luck for him to be allergic to the freakin' bed. Well, that would just mean he would have to sleep in the guest room! hahha!

Barb said...

I've never given that much thought to a bed ~ but you are so right. Love the perspective.

(The Obnoxious SAHM) said...

nice bed - great post! i loved it.

Rebecca said...

Great post. I know how you love your naps so I am very happy for you!

3carnations said...

Someday we'll have a new bed. Current bed is 16 years old, lumpy, creaky. Before my excuse was that dog spent more time on it than us. Dog was put to sleep last year. Nothing keeping us from a new bed now.

Rick said...

If beds could talk...

BTW: I think you would find my most recent doodle interesting - given this blog's name.

Buddha crying!

Beware, R.S.S Lab (Rashtriya SwayamSevak Sangh) is experimenting its products again. The first major experimentation we witnessed in Gujarat. Now the indications from Orissa proves that the second part is started. In the 'Gujarat massacre' lead by the notorious chief minister Narendra Modi, Muslim's were targeted. But in Orissa, the victims become christian missionaries. The fact is that, both the massacres were the brain child of RSS, executed by its trusted lieutenants.
In orissa, VHP -a bye product of RSS is executing the massacre. All the incidents in Orissa started with the murder of VHP leader Swami Laxmanananda Saraswathi and four aids. The collector of kandhamal district were the incident happened, admitted that they got a letter from the murder site in which indicated that it was executed by the Maoists.
Now the question arises, then why the VHP attacking the christian missionaries insted of Maoists. There are two indicators for this.1, they are afraid of attacking the naxals. 2, VHP is using the chance to massacre the Christians. In my opinion its true that VHP leaders are afraid of naxals. At the same time they are utilising the opportunity to target christians.
Christian missionaries are working in the rural parts of Orissa for long years like all other parts of the country. They are running schools, hospitals, orphanages and social service societies in rural parts were such amenities are unavailable. As part of its hidden agenda, the main allegation of VHP against christian missionaries here is that of conversion from Hinduism to Christianity.
It's a fact that like all over the world, conversion is happening in India also. Below poverty line people is usually changing their belief. But how can the RSS criticise the missionaries. actually they are doing their duty. Their duty is to spread the message of Jesus Christ all over the world and at the same time they are also providing various social services like education, health care etc. No one can criticise them for this. how can you criticise?. no, not at all.
In kandhamal alone there are 1,50000 converted Christians among the total six lac population. But the truth is that no one is forced to convert to Christianity, that's an open fact. As the same case, in Orissa too people converted took this decision according to their own judgment and belief. Right for the belief is assured in the constitution, no one can change or challenge that. Its up to each person to decide his or her belief.
So, i appeal the RSS to think and revise your strategy. In this era people will never accept you with threat and attacks. Its a fact that all the conversion is not based on belief itself. The other reason is that of standard of living. People are interested to better their life. Its a human feeling and they will try to achieve this. Insted of attacking the missionaries u may also start schools, hospitals etc. In addition to this u may also provide them with good amenities. Besides this, u also need to respect the sentiments of the common man rather than threatening them. In such a case people will also stay with u. If any one want to live as a christian or Muslim, u may allow them to do so. U didn't have the power or right to obstruct anyone.
RSS must need to be more civilised to adapt to the modern era. first up on u may correct your big mistake - ''the murder of mahatma Gandhi''. you may publicly state about this mistake and request the people of India to forgive you. At the same time, in my opinion u may accept Gandhian values, it will be more suited to u in the modern world than Mr. Godse. The
RSS was banned in India thrice during periods in which the government of the time considered them a threat to the state: in 1948 after Mahatma Gandhi's assassination, during the Emergency (1975-77) , and after the 1992 Babri Masjid demolition. The bans were subsequently lifted after the Supreme Court of India declined to uphold the bans due to lack of evidence of their involvement in the alleged activities. Now also RSS must be beware of a ban. If you move in the present way, i am sure that the law will obstruct u for ever.
Last word: In this crucial period people of orissa must recall about the great emperor Asoka. He embraced Buddhism from the prevalent Vedic tradition after witnessing the mass deaths of the war of Kalinga, which he himself had waged out of a desire for conquest. He was later dedicated in the propagation of Buddhism.

End of the week, nay--end of the month!

May always seems like a great month that does not want to end. You would think Memorial Day is a great way to wrap up the calendar but there is always a week afterwards to clean up the holiday mess.

I left on a long cruise (1991--USS Deyo, DD-989) two days after Memorial Day and we did not actually leave U.S. waters until June 1st. So our deployment was about seven months vice the usual (back then) six which was quite frustrating.

Time is a funny thing; When you are youngster, with mebbe less than a couple hashmarks on your sleeve, a year takes f o r e v e r to pass. Once you hit forty, a year is four distinct seasons that whiz by at double speed. At fifty, months are mere weeks. I could use a seven month deployment on a Destroyer right now. Because time on the ship is measured in the r i g h t now. I think I understand why the C.O. of the Deyo didn't mind  an extra month underway, or for that matter, the seven months we spent underway the next year doing Counter Drug Ops. To him, it was a mere few weeks of time while to us yung'ins, it was an eternity.

If I was deployed again, I would endeavor to not spend my in port evenings drinking the local beers, so as to wake up clear headed and not so ill from being over served.

I lie, a lot.

Anywhoo, May is finally ending and I have paid all the bills and still have a few centimes left for the next couple weeks. Car insurance is a real burden, believe me.

Next mission is to participate in a "Trader Vic's" party, tomorrow evening. Music, umbrella shaded cocktails, ugly printed shirts? What I do just to get by... Someone has to, right?

Here is a photo I lifted from the local "Social Register" for last years event:

No. We are not in this photo. Example of shirts required for function. BTW, we don't hang out with this crowd, believe you me.

We will do a bit of boating in June, not sure where. It won't be far from home because the heat here in Florida will beat a person into submission after the third week of said month. It's ok, I have some stuff coming up for the first two weeks of July which will keep me out of circulation and I need to be prepared physically and mentally for the challenge.

That means no barley pops or vine ripened juices. We can wait for August, can't we? Hmmm?

Update; She Who Will Be Obeyed told me that I sounded melodramatic about July's events... No, not that big of a deal. Just getting rid of the glasses (Not Lasik) and I am a weenie about anything (like dentists!) that happens medically to include fillings and root canals. Or vision repairs...

Memorial Day 2013 Report

Spanish Tallship.

Barco at slip 32 in St Augustine Municipal Marina

Perfect weekend in Northeast Florida... Temps were low eighties and the humidity was almost nonexistent!

I got underway about an hour and a half late, not bad for me since I get easily distracted. In this case I got 'joined' to a group on Facebook called HSL-84 Thunderbolts. I spent an hour eyeballing the photos and remembering my two years (I wasn't very nice back then) at that particular squadron and that is why I was late. I unjoined myself before anyone notices I was there!

Anyway, I rushed over and loaded the last bags and untied the boat from the dock. I headed North on the river to downtown and enjoyed a very uneventful ride in the bright sunshine. Right up until I was a hundred yards from the Railroad bridge, which closed in front of me.

Disappointment. Curse-words uttered to the bridge were not pretty but I was frustrated at the delay.

It was 20 minutes of doing circles in the river until the train had finally cleared which allowed me on my way, pushing the tide at slow speeds.

There is a lot of history with that bridge, the first railway bridge at that site (First bridge crossing the St Johns River!) was built by Henry Flagler's company to bring trains and passengers to St Augustine, which coincidently is my goal, too! This particular span was put in place in 1925 and looks it, believe me.

I passed a sailboat and then was pretty much alone on the River as I headed towards the ocean. The tide changed in my favor about a half hour later, and I now had the pleasure of trucking along at a blistering ten knot pace.

The high speed fun was snuffed out when I got to the Intracoastal Waterway, which has an opposite tide course and I slowed back to seven knots.

About half way down the ICW we got the following tide and sped back to ten knots, but that lasted about an hour. As I approached the St Augustine airport, we were beating back into the tidal current and slowed way down.

The Spousal Unit called me from the A1A Alehouse, wondering when I was going to finally arrive? I reported that it would be another hour or so, and that I was enjoying a very slow pace on the last leg to the Bridge of Lions.

I arrived at about six p.m. and was soon tied to the dock. We commenced the weekend with some Alaskan Salmon and a Simi Chardonnay. While enjoying our evening we were lucky to watch the entire launch and staging to orbit of a NASA satellite in the clear blue evening sky. It was the finest way to wrap up a day on Florida's First Coast.

We were up early on Saturday and enjoyed a fine brekky in the morning sun. As afternoon made it's way to our locality we decided to take the tourist hike about the old town. We were on George Street and ducked into a bar to avoid the Luddite Elitist Marching Mob as they protested Capitalism and its ability to feed the masses cheaply. Seems that Monsanto is evil and should be stopped at any cost, despite the fact there are hungry humans in third world nations who would like a chance to be fed by Monsanto. All this is amusing to me as I see well fed, showered and clean wealthy students walk by as they try to make the rest of us change our bad ways.
Youth is wasted on young people...

So I ducked into a bar and had a Belgian Beer.

Afterwards, we left and searched out some more tourist traps for small gew-gaws to place into our plastic bag as we waited for five o'clock and the Tradewind Bar's famous happy hour show, your host Mark Hart.

And we did.

Got back around eight p.m. and called it an evening an hour later.

Sunday morning had a bit of a gravity storm waiting for me, coffee and brekkies happened a bit after eight. We had a very lazy day watching the Pirate ship take tourists in and out, with a few sword fights on the adjacent dock in between missions. It was relaxing and invigorating to just sit in the shade and watch a busy marina do its holiday routine. We never left the Barco excepting to dump a couple small bags of trash.

A sober Crew hit beddy-byes at nineish to rest up for the trip home.

Up and at-em happened at zero six hundred, I cruised down the dock to use the marina showers while the Spousal Unit used our facilities. The tide was changing and we needed to get away rapidly to take advantage of the favorable currents. The result of which was that we made it home in about seven hours.

And we did get to see some Manatees and dolphins!

Later On: But of course, the Railroad Bridge closed as we were approaching downtown. No curses this time, we had been lucky to have the tides with us and it was a most beautiful day. We'll take the good deals and minimize the small inconveniences that are meaningless in the long run, right?

Now, the dreaded photos...

Bridge of Lions and look: a Spanish Tall Ship is docked at Municipal Marina!

Intracoastal near St Augustine

Low Tide

I have seen 'Monkey's Uncle' in the ICW every year since 2000.

A barge going through the locks at Keokuk

The barge floating into the lock. There are large cables tied to either side to keep it on a straight course. It takes about 10 minutes to get all the way from the back to the front.
The railroad and road swings back. This is the old road before the new bridge was built, but the railroad still uses the track, so they can't just take it out.

The gates of the lock swing open. That is so amazing to see such large gates open up!

The gates begin to open. They swing back into an indentation that allows the barge to float through freely.

The front of the barge starts to move through the gates. At first, it looked like it only had about one foot clearance on each side, but upon closer examination, it had a whole three feet on each side.

Finally, the tug comes through. It's amazing how much smaller it looks out in the middle of the river as opposed to standing on top of it.

The final phase is that it pulls off into the Mississippi River in the deepest part and moves on downriver to New Orleans where most of the cargo will be sent overseas.

A City called Zerahemla

The Lord said in D & C 125 "Let them build up a city unto my name upon the land opposite the city of Nauvoo, and let the name of Zerahemla be named upon it." I have read this in the Doctirne and Covenants and now I have been there. The Last House on the Road to Zerahemla sounds like something that should be written as a book. Mike showed us where the Zerahemla Road was, and then marked off where the last house on the road was located before it went in to the cemetery. I pondered about the family that would have lived there. I'm guessing it would have been their responsibility to care for the cemetery. I wondered what they were thinking when they packed up their wagons and moved west or what they were thinking when they saw their friends and family pack up and move west and they stayed.
Using the divining rods--otherwise known as 2 metal coat hangers, I was able to find a grave. It was so amazing to walk along and watch those two rods cross and then walk a little further and see them separate. I did it about three times, and then called Mike, who is with the sledge hammer, over and asked him to verify what I had found. Sure enough, I had found a grave of an adult. It was about 6 feet long and 3 feet wide. There was also evidence of a fence having been pitched around the grave. Mike took his sledge hammer and drove in a stake marking the grave. One of the people said, "Maybe it was your ancestor." I said that I didn't think so, but even if wasn't, I have such a strong connection to the early Saints of Nauvoo that they all seem like my family.

The cemetery at Zerahemla. I don't know why, but it makes much more sense to me that a place really did exist if there is a cemetery there. There are only about 8 headstones left, but Mike has been able to come up with many more graves as you can see the wooden markers that have been placed. Unfortunately, we don't know the names of the individuals.

As we pulled up to this site, Mike Foley, our director, said, "Somewhere behind those trees was where Zerahemla (the modern version) was located. I thought that's all we were going to get, but then we started walking and got back to Zerahemla.

Montrose and the Mormon Trail west

I wish I knew how to mark pictures on the computer, but if you look right in the center of the picture, you see a white blip in the middle of the green and blue. That is the Nauvoo Temple. It is the very last view the Saints would have had of the temple as they climbed the bluff and headed toward Sugar Creek (which will be another posting). This road is very steep, and it took some extra "horses" from the van in which we were riding to get up it. It made the trek more realistic to me thinking of how those oxen had to pull harder to get up that steep hill. And then I pondered the feeling of loss they must have felt as they looked over at Nauvoo, not knowing where they were being taken, just that they were following the Lord's annointed to "a place which God for us prepared, far away in the west".
A view of the temple from the Linger Longer (otherwise known as the Mormon Trail). There are 130 documented wagon trails into this area, where the early Saints would have crossed by ferry or would have walked or driven across in their wagons when the river froze over. We always ask people to turn around on Parley Street and to look at the temple and imagine what the Saints would have been feeling knowing they would never see their beloved temple again. As I looked across the river, it was amazing how much that temple represents home to me.

There used to be five islands off the banks of Montrose. One of those islands is trying to resurface after the dam at Keokuk was built and raised the water level. You can see some brush sticking up through the water off in the distance. This is the island where the last 606 Saints who were driven from Nauvoo at gunpoint because they would not deny their testimonies of the prophet nor of the restoration of the gospel of Jesus Christ, were dumped. They had not time to prepare provisions or the means, which is why they were still in Nauvoo. Because they had nothing to eat, just as the children of Israel, the Lord sent quail among them to feed them. A river boat captain confirmed this miracle, writing that so many were landing on the decks of his boat that he could hardly make it down river.

The barracks for the enlisted men were located where the cement slab is just the other side of the railroad tracks (which would not have been here in 1838). In their histories, Mary Ann Young, and Leonora Taylor describe some memorable events here. It wasn't a well built barracks and was 14x14. Leonora said that there were holes in the wall so large that a skunk would stop in every night to sleep with them. It was from these barracks that Brigham Young and Heber C. Kimball waved goodbye to their very ill wives and headed for England. In order to comfort his wife, Heber C. requested that they stand in the wagon and cheer, "Hoorah for Israel!" Vilate and Mary Ann came to the door and waved goodbye to them. Mary Ann made several trips across the river in a small row boat. Growing tired of that fun with six small children, she procured the land where the Brigham Young home is currently located, but they had a wooden shack until Brigham got home and drained the swamp and built their fine brick home.

In the early 1830's an army unit was sent to Montrose to guard the area because there were lead deposits here that the nation needed. The river was not as wide or as deep as it is now. In fact, there were rapids here believe it or not. Where the log lies is where the Captain's quarters were originally located and extended out into what is now the Mississippi River. Captain Kearney who later had a city and a fort named after him was the officer in charge for a time. Another famous General came here and made a drawing which helped those came behind to place where things were. His name? Robert E. Lee. This was in 1838.

This bluff in Montrose rises above the Mississippi River. This had been called the Half Breed Tract in an agreement with the Sac and Fox Indian Tribes. It was named Montrose because of this bluff. It had been covered with wild roses and so they named it Mount Rose or Montrose.

The Iceman Cometh

Tools of the ice trade of the 1800 and early 1900's. One of the most amazing of which is the horse hair coat up in the corner of the picture. When I first looked at it, I thought it was something else. Aren't we lucky we live in a day of refridgeration? All of these pictures are taken at the Museum in Montrose, Iowa.
The ice company from Montrose. This is such a great picture even though it's so full of reflections. My Grandpa Geilmann used to be an ice man. He told me the story of his boss's wife who wanted him. One day he came in to deliver the ice and she was standing there stark naked. Grandpa quickly put the ice in the ice box and hurried out to his wagon. She followed him to the porch and quarried, "Hank, don't ya have nothing to say to a naked lady?" Grandpa jiggled on the reins to give the horses the signal to "getty up" and said without looking back, "Put your clothes on, lady, you're scarin the horses."

Paddle safe - know the rules - video transcript

Narrator: Paddlers have to share the waterways with much bigger and more powerful craft. Do you know how to navigate waterways safely? It’s up to everyone to be safe and avoid a collision. What side do you pass another boat on? Unlike the road, on the water you should keep to the right of the waterway - starboard – wherever possible. Stick to the shorelines where you can to avoid other craft. What if you need to cross? Pick the narrowest point to cross, and choose a starting point where you can see clearly in both directions. As you cross, stick together as a group, and keep a lookout. Navigation markers are used to show craft where they can safely navigate harbours and protected waters. Channels are marked by green starboard markers on the right and red port markers on the left as you go upstream. Where possible try to paddle outside of these channels like these paddlers are - to keep out of
the way of other boats. If you have to paddle in the channel, stay to the right hand side and keep close to the edge. Always avoid the middle of the channel. At other times it might be safest to stay closer to the shore even if it means being on the left hand side of the channel. Do you know where the shipping lanes are? Have you any idea how fast large vessels can travel? You could never out-paddle this ship. So avoid commercial traffic, know where the shipping lanes are and paddle clear of them. If you need to cross a shipping lane, you can’t assume you will be seen. Wait till it is safe to cross and always cross well behind larger craft. Keep well clear of the boat-wash. Kayaks and canoes should give way to any craft under sail. Always aim to cross behind othercraft.

End of transcript.

2009 In Review (I'm trying to be like all the cool bloggers who are doing this)

As I was scrolling through all the new posts in Blogger, I noticed that "2009 in Review" was a pretty popular post topic. And since I am currently lacking large amounts of creativity, I decided to be a copykat. Ha ha - get it, copyKat (like my name)? (-:

So, really, this year brought a LOT of changes, for the good, and a lot of new aspects.

I started a new job in February working for my church and I LOVE it. And the funny thing is, when I started the job I was nervous that I wouldn't like it. When I interviewed at the church, I already had a great job as an underwriter for an insurance company, and I was very comfortable, loved my co-workers, and was really in a great place. So, when this new opportunity was presented to me, honestly, at first I didn't even think it was a realistic option. But, to appease those who approached me about the job, I went ahead and emailed the church for information. A few weeks of number crunching, wise counsel, prayer, and deep thinking later, I accepted the job and jumped in with both feet. Almost a year later, words can't even begin to describe how thankful I am for my new job and all the blessings it has brought.

The new job was obviously a big change, at least a 40 hour a week change, but a couple of months later another change took place that is a 24/7 change. Mark and I got married in July after over 4 years of dating. I love being married. It is so fun and I always have someone with which to hang out. I couldn't imagine not having Mark in my life and am so thankful for him. I feel like this paragraph should be longer than the one about the job, but then again, I've talked more about marriage and Mark on here in general, so I guess it evens out. If you want to see some wedding photos, see my previous blog posts here and here.

We went on a cruise with friends and family (photos here) in September, and that was so fun. I love cruises. And I love the ocean. And dressing up. And eating enormous quantities of calories. So it's a win-win.

Little Miguel had a rough year for a dog. He developed diabetes and a thyroid problem. He's doing okay, though, and will be turning 14 in a couple of weeks. Brinkley had fun just being a dog. No big developments with him, other than passing his obedience class FINALLY.

My brother got married two weeks after me, so my family had a busy couple of months! (-: They had a beautiful wedding and I have a wonderful new sister-in-law.

And of course, the coolest thing that happened was that I started this blog. Ha ha just kidding. Apparently I'm really cracking myself up today.

I guess that's all for now. Mark and I have been thinking and talking about our goals for 2009, so hopefully those will be coming soon, AND a new Cooking with Kat segment on some olive cheese bread that we will be making for the New Year tomorrow.

Peace out, homies!

  1. You ARE one of the cool bloggers, silly! Love reading your blog! Happy New Year!!!

How to control your feelings

Is it possible to control our feelings and mood or do they control us?The answer is we can control of our feelings.To explain how to keep your feelings,emotions and mood under control I must go a little deeper, but not too deep.

I’ll use a car as an example. A car has four wheels and an engine. The front two wheels are powered by the engine to pull the car in the direction you want to go. The front two wheels represent your thinking and your actions. The back two wheels represent your emotions(ie feelings,mood) and physiology(ie physical functioning). This is a clear way to understand how we are as human beings. Our thinking and doing takes us to where we want to go and our emotions and physiology follow.

Then there is our engine. This represents our core beliefs and is the heart of who we are. This will be the power to drive us forward. If we have low self esteem and we come to a hill(ie problem in life) we may start to roll backwards, or in other words our feelings and emotions may pull us backwards when under pressure. If fear gets a grip on us we may start to pull in both directions, but eventually one will win out. This is why faith in God is so important. If you dont have faith you end up relying on yourself. The problem with that is you may not always know what to do, and you will get tired sometimes. This is when you need to rely on a higher power for help to get you through.

I suppose you could say God is that tow truck when you need it. Okay so there are alot of metaphors but I hope it keeps things clear.

When our feelings or mood is low, it can be because of a few different reasons:

  • tiredness
  • bad diet
  • stress
  • fear
  • anxiety
  • grief
  • low self esteem
  • bad news

there are lots of things that can alter our emotions negatively. This can also make us physically feel differently. We may lose our appetite, want to sleep more, feel lazy, cry, get tension in our back and chest,etc. So as you can see even the wrong diet can effect our feelings. Even when you go through something stressful it can take your body a couple of days to recover from the effects of adrenaline and tension.This is due to when we go through a bad situation chemicals are released into the blood and it can take awhile to normalize. My point is, feelings and physiology are a bit temperamental at the best of times and we can’t always explain why we feel the way we do. BUT we can get things under control a lot quicker if we get disciplined in our thinking and don’t act on negative thoughts.

Focus your mind on positive thinking. Focus your energy/action on good things that you enjoy, even if you aren’t in the mood to go for a walk, just do it. Its hard to be upset when you are smiling! Your concern are the front two wheels. View life as an adventure, not a tribulation.

As a man thinks, that is how he will be.

Liberty and Property Rights

I quote from this:

"The risings began when Mohamed Bouazizi, a market trader, was driven to the horrific extreme of self-immolation because he had been denied ownership of his own goods and the right to engage in commerce. His was a protest against the violation of property rights, and he was not alone. In an authoritative study of the Arab Spring, the Peruvian economist, Hernando de Soto, chronicled hundreds of cases of entrepreneurs in Arab countries being driven to suicide by police corruption and harassment.

Why is this different from the effects of all the regulatory quangos in the UK?

This example from the delectable FSA/FCA which has resulted in a huge loss of jobs and businesses as set out here.

I have maintained all along that the RDR was a fundamental assault on property rights (by the destruction in the value in the businesses of honest citizens built up over many years and the arbitrary interference in the sanctity of private contract leading both to the whole sale loss of jobs and the undermining of all existing client agreements.

Rich Tee said...

The Soviet Union was famous for its rampant alcoholism, which I always saw as a person's reaction to the helplessness that communism engenders.

And in the West the epidemic of depression and anxiety is well documented.

The more helpless people feel, the more hopeless they feel.

OF Alfredo Silverio, Marlins’ Rule 5 draft pick, out with sprained elbow

Outfielder Alfredo Silverio’s bid to open the season with the Marlins was a long shot even when camp opened, but he seems more than ever destined to open the season on the disabled list.

Silverio has a sprained elbow — the same elbow in which he had reconstructive ligament surgery (Tommy John surgery) following a bad car accident more than a year ago.

Silverio had been hitting in spring games but he never played defense. He was long tossing when he felt some discomfort.

“He will be out for a while. He felt something long tossing so we shut him down,” manager Mike Redmond said.

Meanwhile, Justin Ruggiano (back tightness) hit off Jose Ceda today during batting practice and said everything felt good. He might take batting practice with hitters in a day or two.

Ruggiano came to camp as the apparent front runner in center field but he has not played in a spring game yet.

Redmond said Chris Coghlan will get more action in center field in the coming days.

“He has done great job. He’s swinging the bat great and playing a good outfield. He’s definitely making a case for himself,” Redmond said of Coghlan.

“We’re going to run him out in center. We haven’t had really anybody stand out out there yet so there’s still an opportunity for somebody to take that job. Right now he is swinging the bat and he’s doing everything he can possibly do.”
