!!!!!! BBC News - WHO expected to launch 'emergency plan' to eradicate polio CIO Note: <888> 05/24/12 Thursday 3:10 A.M. I ate one half of the remaining double wide eggs noodles and defrosted slow cooker beef stew with a 12 ounce glass of Schweppes Ginger Ale and a cup of green tea with splenda sweetener and Borden's lemon juice. CIO Note: <888> 05/24/12 Thursday 2:05 A.M. I went out, and I went downtown. I walked the entire length of Greenwich Avenue and the train station area. I sat out at various locations. I chatted briefly with someone from France. There were a few pub crawlers out. After my walk, I clocked my mileage for a round trip downtown, and it is only 4.7 miles. So at $4.50 a gallon for self service premium V-Power gasoline and 11.5 miles per gallon works out to $0.392 per mile driving for gasoline and $1.84 for a round trip downtown at night when there is no traffic. There was not much traffic on Greenwich Avenue this morning. Of course the employees of the restaurants have to clean up after the restaurants close as do some of the other businesses. I then went by the 24 hour CVS, and I bought two DiGiorno.com | It's Not Delivery. It's DiGiorno 32.7 ounce self rising deluxe pizzas for $5.50 each for $11 total. I chatted with the pharmacist about the price of tea in China. I also bought a Emerson 40 inch telescope 5X to 100X with tripod for $5 and .32 tax for $5.32 total. I chatted briefly with the sales clerk and two other customers about astronomy. Before the internet became commonly available in Greenwich, Connecticut, I used to use a local computer BBS on Astronomy from Old Greenwich to download files, since it was a local telephone call. Also for the first five months, when I moved back to Greenwich in December 1983, I lived at 100 Milbank Avenue across from the Julian Curtis elementary school where there is an observatory next to the school where the astronomy club meets regularly. They use to have a volunteer to oversee them that taught physics at www.columbia.edu for 50 years, but I think John passed away years ago. He was not interested in the internet, and thought it was all a hype. They still have a half dozen more Emerson telescopes available at the 24 hour CVS at 644 West Putnam Avenue. Since there are no 24 hours gasoline stations in the downtown area anymore, I have had a few drivers asking me where there is a gasoline station at night, and I direct them to the Shell Station at 401 West Putnam Avenue. I returned home. I put the pizzas in the freezer. I put the Emerson telescope to the right of the Rubbermaid hamper underneath the televisions in the bedroom. CIO Note: <888> 05/23/12 Wednesday 11:15 P.M. I will now go downtown for a late evening stroll. CIO Note: <888> 05/23/12 Wednesday 10:15 P.M.

I chatted with a relative. CIO Note: <888> 05/23/12 Wednesday 8:35 P.M. I woke up, and I ate a dozen CVS value raspberry cookies. I finally woke up at 7 P.M..

I will now shut down the primary work computer. I will then eat a few day old muffin. I will then go to bed. CIO Note: <888> 05/23/12 Wednesday 5:45 A.M. I threw out the CVS laptop stand box. I waved good morning to a neighbor. I walked around the outside of the building. All quiet on the western front. CIO Note: <888> 05/23/12 Wednesday 5:30 A.M. I assembled the second CVS laptop stand that I bought a couple of months ago. I put it in the kitchen where the folding oak table was. I moved the pedestal fan from in front of the mahogany bureau to the left side of the left living room closet. I moved the Ionic Pro air purifier to in front of the hallway sweater closet. I put the folding oak table in front of the living room mahogany bureau. I moved the third IBM ThinkCentre setup from the right side of the FIC server setup to the folding oak table in front of the mahogany bureau. I connected it up the internet with a spare longer LAN cable. It all work just fine, so the third IBM ThinkCentre is easier to use in a more convenient location. I moved the pathos plant from in front of the mahogany bureau to right side of the FIC server, and I put the mouse pad on the table where the pathos plant was to the left of the third IBM ThinkCentre. The CVS laptop stand in the kitchen takes up slightly more room, so I moved the white plastic garbage can against the wall to the right of the refrigerator.

Dear Friends,
After many public hearings, testimony from all stakeholders, and extensive research, a storm response bill was crafted. The bill requires state regulators with the Public Utilities Regulatory Authority (PURA) to establish new performance standards for telecommunications, electric and gas utilities for emergency preparations, and a means for the restoration of service over prolonged and widespread outages. In addition the bill requires a report on utility call center operations, and notification from the utilities on coordinated responses. PURA must submit its report identifying these new standards by November 1st of this year. Should PURA reach the conclusion that proper standards are not being met in any of these areas, civil penalties can be levied against distribution companies in an amount up to 2.5% of that company’s distribution revenue. Both chambers of the legislature have approved this measure and it now awaits Governor Malloy's signature.
Best regards,

I guess having lived in Pensacola, Florida from 1953 to 1954 as a youth and having vacationed on the beach in Holland, Michigan until my family moved to Greenwich, Connecticut in 1962, I developed a love of the water. However, I don't make it to our local beach at Tod's Point much anymore, since it costs me about $9 round trip to go to the beach. All of the years out in www.nantucket.net , and vacationing in Kennebunkport, Maine, and visiting Florida and exploring California, I did spend a lot of time at the beach. However, I have been warned to stay out of the sun, so as not to develop melanomas. Still I find the beach refreshing and renewing, so sooner or later, I will make it back to the beach one of these days. CIO Note: <888> 05/22/12 Tuesday 5:40 A.M. I just woke up. I ate 10 CVS Value raspberry cookies. CIO Note: <888> 05/22/12 Tuesday 2:25 A.M. I will now take a nap. For the $3.43 that the beef stew with eggs noodles meal cost along with the 28 cent for a can of soda and 15 cents for a cup of green tea, the very good meal cost me about $3.86 versus the $3.28, it cost be round trip to go downtown to Greenwich Avenue to be ignored by the Starbucks generation for 58 cents more. Still by my standards, it is a very deluxe meal. CIO Note: <888> 05/22/12 Tuesday 1:35 A.M. I am just about ready to eat 1/4th of a 16 ounce bag of America's Choice double wide egg noodles with 1/4th of the reheated defrosted beef stew with a 12 ounce glass of Sprite lemon lime soda and a cup of green tea with Splenda sweetener and Borden's lemon juice.

I turned off the Hamilton Beach slow cooker, and I put one half of the beef stew in a Rubbermaid container with lid in the refrigerator and the other half in a Rubbermaid container with lid in the freezer. I went back to bed until 6:30 P.M.. The Hamilton Beach slow cooker had cooled off, so I washed its lid, and I wiped out the inner stoneware liner, and I put the Hamilton Beach slow cooker underneath the chair at the hallway entrance. I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and a sliced banana and milk, a toasted English muffin with extra virgin olive oil, a 50% to 50% glass of punch and cold filtered water with vitamins and supplements, a cup of coffee with Splenda sweetener and milk.

OpenSecrets.org: Money in Politics -- See Who's Giving & Who's Getting There is this self service car wash in Darien, Connecticut Self Serve Carwash , where I could probably spray the Audi from the outside without risking the passenger side window coming down in the regular car wash. However, I would then need some place to wax the car with DuPont The Final Detail - Car Spray Wax . Since the car might get dirty driving back from Darien that might not be an option. Possibly I could wax the car in the ice skating rink parking lot in my back yard, since I am not allowed to work on my car in my parking lot. However, since we are expecting rain all week, I would not be doing it this week. Besides I can not really afford to drive all of the way up to Darien and wash the car at the moment. I will now make my bed, and then I will shower and clean up. CIO Note: <888> 05/20/12 Sunday 11:35 P.M.

I rested some more until just now. I have noticed in my walks on Greenwich Avenue recently that at the top of Greenwich Avenue on the southwest corner the old three story Pickwick building is for sale. Blue laws down the tubes Greenwich liquor stores open for business Sunday - GreenwichTime . I guess the Port Chester, New York business community is not happy about that. Of course, I think the Port Chester, New York can sell beer and liquor later at night. Port Chester, New York has changed a lot in the 28 years since I came off Nantucket or in the 23 years I have been living near the New York border with Connecticut. A couple of decades ago throngs of Latin American guest workers would be lined up at the pay phones in Port Chester, New York to call home to their relatives. Now they all have inexpensive communications around the world. When they took away the pay phones at the old Cumberland Farms which I used to use, when I did not have a telephone, I would use the pay phone in the lobby of the Port Chester police station. Back then it was $2.50 to call Long Island from Connecticut for three minutes, where as from Port Chester it was only 35 cents. There are also a lot of new big box stores in Port Chester, New York like www.costco.com . However, on my limited income, I can not afford to shop Port Chester, New York because of the price of gasoline to go over there, so I am left cruising CVS on Greenwich Avenue looking for pot luck bargains. Back in the late 1960s and early 1970s when I worked around www.polaroid.com near www.harvard.edu and www.mit.edu , I used to have friends that lived on a Dairy Commune near St. Johnsbury, Vermont, where I stayed a few times, so that was one of my original Vermont connections.
