There is a foul odor emanating from this Navy Dock in front of the Ford Plant in Louisville, KY, USA. We are unsure of it's origin. The odor can be detected while on foot as it appears to be confined to a local area - it is similar to burned rubber. It burns our eyes and respiratory systems. I am not sure how Ford Employees tolerate it. I hope they have respirators to use.
Pancake and I have seen this Taurus at this location for over a month - 24/7. We finally decided to look inside the car to ensure there were no dead bodies inside. There weren't - just some notebooks, log books and a bottle on the seat. The Ford probably broke down and they left it there.
The Homeless can frequently be spotted here in Louisville, Kentucky, USA sleeping (or dying) under various underpasses. Many have treatable medical conditions, many are military Veterans, many have addictions, many are victims of horrid sexual and physical abuses (a good portion of these rapes and abuses, experienced by both men and women, occur while staying in shelters). What is so puzzling about this is directly adjacent to this bridge is the University of Louisville's Forcht Center for Entrepreneurship. These "Entrepreneurs" will step over the homeless bodies shown here in order to get to their classes. Some of the bodies shown here were not homeless but were simply discharged from medical facilities and dropped here after being cut & drugged.
What is curious also is that if one takes the time to sit down and speak to these individuals one will learn many have just had medical procedures and surgeries performed at the University of Louisville and immediately discharged back onto the streets without further placement into any type of care or recovery unit. One person I'd spoken with indicated their medical transport never showed up and they were stranded.
I encountered one person who had just had a surgery on their leg, had an 8" oozing scar, and had fallen here. They were not able to get up. This individual had been laying under this bridge for days. Needless to say, the police were called and the EMT's did take this woman back, unfortunately, to the University of Louisville. Police officers I spoke with on the scene indicated this is a frequent occurrence. It was not recommended the woman return to U of L, however this was the only care center she was familiar with.
This post is dedicated to a long time friend, a brilliant man, exceptional chef, wonderful human being, who is currently in Norton Hospital, ICU, 200 E. Chestnut Street, Louisville, KY 40202. We are not sure if he is going to survive.

It was a beautiful Fall day today as we watched this particular fisherman bring in a few fish - one which resembled a Walleye - there were a number of small boats out there. I was stunned there were any fish remaining in the Ohio near Louisville, Kentucky and Clarksville, Indiana as polluted as it is. The runoff from Indiana as you will see in a following photo teems with surface oil with a reddish tinge. The "beach" itself is trash and litter infested with plastic bottles, jugs, tires, drums and oil containers. What humans, the power companies and industries upstream have done to this river, future generations and the people who live along it and downstream is an abomination and criminal.

For at least an hour the red flags were up. The reason? The lifeguards said there was a school of bluefish headed this way (they radio each other). Another said the bluefish are not the threat - the threat is the bull sharks waiting around the rocks for the bluefish. There were people fishing 100' north of here and none of them caught anything. One man said he was fishing so he did not have to vacuum at home. Although there are many badge checkers on these beaches, we did not see anyone checking with the fishermen as to whether they were using live bait near the swimming/surfing beaches. The human population on these beaches was rather sparse.
We did not see any signs of bluefish nor did we see any bull sharks. We did see a few dolphins swim by. There were very few gulls in the area, and those that were standing around were quiet. We did not see one fisherman catch anything although one said he'd caught a 5' brown shark earlier.

About The River City Radio Controllers, AMA Gold Leader Club:
The River City Radio Controllers, A.M.A. Gold Leader Club #1263, was formed in the early 1970’s operating from a field on the Freys Hill side of E.P. “Tom” Sawyer State Park in eastern Jefferson County. In 1995, due to encroaching development, the Club moved to its current flying site on the Hurstbourne Parkway side of the Park, which was dedicated “Steve Henry Field” in honor of former Lt. Governor, Steven L. Henry. Due to our commitment to our surrounding community, the club has achieved AMA Gold Leader club status. Additionally, our club received the Jefferson County Commissioners’ Community Service Award for its annual “Wings for Kids” Benefit Air Show. In 2013, our flying field was renamed “Bill Fluke Field” in honor of one of our most popular and hard-working Club Presidents who recently passed away.
Here are some highlights about our club and facilities:
Our Club – Location
The club is currently comprised of approximately 130 radio control pilots who are licensed by the Academy of Model Aeronautics. Pilots fly helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft with electric, glow fuel, or gasoline motors. Throughout the year, the club has fun-fly events that anyone may attend for free. Event information may be found on our calendar.
Our club is located in Tom Sawyer State Park in Louisville, KY (map).
Visitors are welcomed any time the front gate is open.
The flying field is open 7 days a week from 10 am until dark (weather permitting).
Facilities
We have a 500 ft x 50 ft paved runway with an adjacent grass runway.
Dedicated helicopter flying field.
Shelter area with storage and grills for cooking.
Bleachers for spectators.
Large gravel parking lot.
Aircraft
The aircraft are flown with radio control systems that have a range of several miles. Planes are typically flown within a 1,500 foot radius of the runway. There are nearly as many different models of radio controlled planes as there are full scale planes. Some of the more popular aircraft flown at the “Wings for Kids Air Show” will include WWI and WWII scale models, civilian scale, aerobatic scale, aerobatic 3D (extreme aerobatic), turbine jets, electric jets, electric and glow helicopters, and extreme flight 3D helicopters. There are other fun fly aircraft that perform during the show including a candy drop for children.
Aircraft Size and Speed
Airplanes and helicopters range in size from ultra-micros, which have about a 10 inch wingspan, to aircraft with wingspans greater than 9 feet. Most planes fly between 35 and 75 mph. Some planes and most jets will exceed 100 mph and may approach 150+ mph. Helicopters are also able to fly at extreme speeds and fly extreme aerobatics well beyond what is capable in a full-scale helicopter.
Aircraft Cost
The cost of a helicopter or airplane is usually related to size and complexity. Most airplanes range from $400 to several thousand dollars. However, beginner electrics may start as low as $100 for those looking to get started in the hobby. On the other end of the spectrum, a scale turbine jet may cost upwards of $15,000.
Learn To Fly
So how do I get started in radio controlled flying? That is a question we hear a lot. At RCRC, we believe you should be able to “try before you buy”, so we encourage beginners to contact our club president (Doug Bailey) who will arrange for a person from our club to provide training. This allows you to fly with the safety-net of an experienced pilot that can automatically take the controls from you if things start to go south! This is a great way to test the waters of RC before diving in!
Call Doug at 502 930 5753 to arrange your training flight.

While on a errand today we spotted this TARC bus parked, idling, both to and from our destination. aka Running. No driver at the wheel. For at least 1/2 hour.
Transit Authority of River City
1000 W Broadway, Louisville, KY 40203
Phone: (502) 585-1234
This stop is the "end of the line" (or the beginning however one looks at it). When I was attempting to learn the bus lines a while back (didn't turn out well) there was a lady driver who'd sit at the driver's seat having her lunch. If you went near the bus while she was having lunch she'd bark your head off. Once I dropped a nickel and could not find it, she said, "Honey, you need full fare to ride on this bus" - I needed to be in court - I missed the court date - I have a warrant out for my arrest. I no longer care. I do see that lady is no longer driving this bus.
Much needed in this area. I'd prefer a diamond-plated one with an IED attached but not sure how to attach that to a Lexus. As many times as vehicles here are side-swiped, rear-ended, backed into, run over and crashed perhaps that would be a good deterrent. In the meanwhile, I simply use "Police Lines Do Not Cross" streamers hanging from the back of my car's trunk. Painting "Service Dog Onboard" along with 4" painted "DO NOT TAILGATE" was not enough.
