San Francisco, California at night

While Pancake and I were out and about this morning we thought we'd drop in (walked right in) on a local health care company. What I found interesting is their login book for visitors contained entries for a company called C2 Strategic Communications. C2 is Louisville Mayor Fischer's PR firm. They are also serving as spokesperson for RiverLink, the fiasco behind the Ohio River toll collection system and the Ohio River Bridges Project (aka EZPass, Kentucky Style), MSD, The Liquor Barn and the Louisville Water Company. It is my feeling that if one enters ANY place of business as a professional - especially a health care company where enormous amounts of customer data, vendor and Government information is readily available, it would behoove C2 Strategic Communications to comply with that company's request for credentials, logins and logouts, because for some, accuracy and accountability DOES matter - especially in the health care field as all of our lives, information, confidentiality, health and wellbeing depend on it. That is all.

Cheltenham Wetlands Park was once part of the U.S. Naval Radio Station, Cheltenham, Maryland. It was commissioned in 1939.

“The original antenna fields, comprising creosoted wood telephone poles and metal antenna towers, were located in the acreage surrounding the buildings. All metal antenna poles have been removed from the installation. Some abandoned creosoted wood poles remain in the wooded and swampy sections of the installation.

Established as a radio receiving station before World War II, the installation's mission evolved to administration during the Cold War era.”

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.

 

Pancake met this gorgeous Australian Shepherd while donating some items to the Kentucky Humane Society today, and what a beautiful blue-eyed pup this was!

CSX train.passing through Anchorage, Louisville.

Purchased these for my dog. They were rancid. They did have the USDA seal of approval on the packaging. "Shrink wrapped". They were farmed in Kentucky. Does not appear this animal got much exercise, minerals or sunlight and was quite stressed: www.jbc.org/content/65/3/643.full.pdf

 

THE INFLUENCE OF SUNLIGHT ON BONE DEVELOPMENT

IN SWINE.

BY L. A. MAYNARD, S. A. GOLDBERG, AND R. C. MILLER.

(From the Department of Animal Husbandry and the Department of Comparatiue

Pathology and Bacteriology, Cornell University, Ithaca.)

(Received for publication, July 6, 1925.)

  

A report has recently been made by the writers (1) on the dietary

relationships and the pathology of a condition in swine popularly

referred to as stiffness, paralysis, rickets, and by other terms.

In this previous study the principal and constantly occurring

lesions in the stiff pigs were found in the bones and these lesions

were accompanied by a deficiency of calcium and phosphorus as

shown by chemical analysis of the femurs. The stiffness was

found to occur with a ration low either in calcium or in the factor

aiding its assimilation. The correction of the ration with respect

to these deficiencies was found effective for preventing or curing

the trouble.

In this previous study the animals were housed in pens on the

north side of the colony house and were never exposed to any

direct sunlight. In view of the findings that the stiffness was

apparently a result of faulty mineral nutrition the question naturally

arose as to how the results would be modified where the pigs

were exposed to sunlight. The results reported in the present

paper deal with a study of this question.

 

************

Note if one does file a complaint with the USDA on a rancid or compromised product this will be the response:

 

"After receiving your complaint, FSIS conducted an analysis and review of CCMS (Consumer Complaint Monitoring System) data, as well as the inspection of records from the establishment that produced the product in questions. We did not find any trends or conditions at the establishment that warrant further action at this time. However, we have notified the manufacturer and FSIS establishment personnel of your complaint, and they may conduct additional review."

Got this pumpkin from Kroger's to cut up for a casserole. Needless to say we were not able to use much of it. With their defunct return policy I'm sorry I cut it up. Would have made great target practice. : )

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.

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.

Not sure where this ditch ends but it doesn't look good. Standing water remains days after rainfalls. Undermining can be seen to the left. It does, however, provide safe harbor for bats frequently seen loitering above at night and produces ample supplies of gnats for local spiders. Offers unlimited free storage and effortless return of Kroger's shopping carts.
