"I've been a huge fan of the America's Cup since the 1980s and I've been hoping for this day for a long time, to have the races come home to San Francisco, right here in our own beautiful backyard," said Jay Gardner, president of Adventure Cat Sailing Charters and sailing enthusiast. Gardner, along with his wife, business partner and crew, built the company's first catamaran by hand in 1991, a 48-passenger, coast guard certified vessel which is still in operation today. "The natural terrain of the bay creates the perfect amphitheater-like stage for water-viewing, not to mention the sheer beauty of the area. All of these elements, coupled with the region's strong winds and ocean currents should make for a thrilling series of events, possibly even the best Cup yet. If it's really nuking out on the Bay, it could end up being a game of pure survival - the winner simply being the last boat standing."

The U.S. National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) has issued its final report on the PSA Airlines CRJ-200 runway overrun at Charleston, WV, in January of this year. The aircraft (registration N246PS) overran a runway at Yeager Airport (CRW), Charleston, WV, following a rejected takeoff. The NTSB report attributes the incident to the flight crew's "unprofessional behavior."
A large explosion rocked the international arrivals hall at Moscow's Domodedovo Airport (DME) earlier today, January 24, 2011. Local officials say that the blast, which was caused by a suicide bomber, killed at least 35 people and left more than 100 injured.
This evening many former supporters of the administration will gather in the Council Chamber to try and persuade City Council to reject the administration's water lease plan. These former supporters were on board when the mayor paved Cedar Park, and sent the merchants packing. Don't know if you have been on Hamilton Street lately? We have solved the seedy customer problem, there are no more customers. Things started going bad between the mayor and the supporters back with the Trash to Energy contract. Supporters or not, seems that they're particular about the air they breath and the water they drink. Bless them for thinking that democracy is in play this evening, or in Allentown. What they should be doing is speaking to an outside attorney about an injunction against the lease. Around 1900, General Trexler donated hundreds of acres along the Little Lehigh to protect the watershed for the benefit of Allentown's citizens. They should be petitioning the Trexler Trust to protect the intentions of the General.
The Shoe giant Wetherhold & Metzger started in 1908 on Hamilton street's south side. When business began to prosper, they moved across to the more prominent north side of Hamilton Street. Their store at 719 Hamilton was recently demolished, along with most of Allentown's mercantile history. It was a two story store, with the children's department on the lower level. This post originally was scheduled for sometime in the future, and was to include a Buster Brown poster. Today's Morning Call has a story on the mystery radium 226 found in the debris of the former buildings, and I thought perhaps the molovinsky on allentown historical division could help. Wetherhold & Metzer's downtown store was quite the adventure for a kid. In addition to your mother's money being transported away in a tube system like the bank drive-ups use today, you could look inside your shoes and see your feet.
