Tropical Storm Beryl

It is now almost 5 AM and I am still awake. I am watching the local news following the weather report on Fox. A tornado warning was issued in some areas up north of Florida. The weather here now is alright compared last night. Rain was on and off. Thunder and lightning were not that bad but still, I don't like storms especially when we are on the road.It is not hurricane season yet, Storm Beryl has made it's landfall along Jacksonville Florida tagging a 70mph winds. We felt the intensity of the storm here in our area. The thunder is scary and we only have rain. The wind is not that bad. I hope Beryl will weaken soon. Jacksonville suffered flooding and some of them have no electricity. Some power lines were knocked down by trees.Today, we will be going to Orlando and I hope there will be no rain.I don't like to see a miserable sky like this. I hope this storm will go away and vanish into thin air.Have a safe week everyone.

Dorothy Law Nolte

It is summer and to cool down, most of us love to go swimming on the beach or in our pool. If you plan to have swimming, make sure you watch your children. They are vulnerable to drowning. Just today's news, another incident where a lil child drowned in their pool. Summer is fun if we are careful. It was really sad! I hope parents are careful!

Anyway, here is an inspiring poem that I would like to share to all of you by Dorothy Law Nolte. We should not forget that children are so precious. We should love them and we should make sure that they are safe and loved. Pictures below were taken at Museo Pambata, Philippines.

If a child lives with criticism,
he learns to condemn.

If a child lives with hostility,
he learns to fight.

If a child lives with fear,
he learns to be apprehensive.

If a child lives with pity,
he learns to feel sorry for himself.

If a child lives with ridicule,
he learns to be shy.

If a child lives with jealousy,
he learns what envy is.

If a child lives with shame,
he learns to feel guilty.

If a child lives with encouragement,
he learns to be confident.

If a child lives with tolerance,
he learns to be patient.If a child lives with praise,
he learns to be appreciative.

If a child lives with acceptance,
he learns to love.

If a child lives with approval,
he learns to like himself.

If a child lives with recognition,
he learns that it is good to have a goal.

If a child lives with sharing,
he learns about generosity.If a child lives with honesty and fairness,
he learns what truth and justice are.

If a child lives with security,
he learns to have faith in himself and in those about him.

If a child lives with friendliness,
he learns that the world is a nice place in which to live.

If you live with serenity,
your child will live with peace of mind.

Love your children and do not take them for granted.

Space X Falcon 9 Lift Off

Today, May 22 made a mark in the history in Cape Canaveral. The picture below is the successful rocket launch of the SPACE X's Falcon 9, the first private vessel heading to the International Space Station carrying food and supply for those currently in the ISS. The launch took place in Space Launch Complex-40 at Florida’s Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. We were looking at the direction of Cape Canaveral Air Force Station and listening on the radio too. The on-time lift-off occurred after a smooth countdown and we watched this beautiful rocket lift off. The picture below is where we always went to watch the shuttle lift off. This was taken in another time (April 17-Shuttle Discovery piggyback moment).We were at the boat dock along Indian River just across the Cape Canaveral area. The weather is nice. The Falcon 9 carried SpaceX’s Dragon capsule, embarking a historic flight to the ISS. This is a demonstration flight and Dragon is expected to do the on-orbit maneuvers, rendezvous capabilities and vehicle performance.Few people came here and mostly locals. The tiny building at the center of the picture below is a building in Kennedy Space Center- NASA and further right is the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station.I am using my Blackberry phone and I only took two pictures. I hope this test will be a great success.

Ferry Ride to Magic Kingdom

Visiting Disney World is always fun especially when your family is with you. Make sure that you have a camera and a tripod with you and extra battery too. If you want to visit one park in one day, that is a wise plan. But, if you still have the strength to move on to another park, why not right? Children loves Magic Kingdom so; be there early.There are two ways to go to Magic Kingdom it's by monorail which is fast and ferry boat. If you are not in a hurry, take the ferry boat and enjoy the view by the lake.If you want to take pictures, go to the second floor so; you can get a good shot. It's not that far and you will enjoy the ride. Make sure that you have your itinerary which attraction to go first. Let the kids decide where they want to go first. Cinderella Castle is located at the heart of Magic Kingdom which has 107 acres of theme park with the following whimsical lands: Main Street, U.S.A., Adventureland, Frontierland, Liberty Square, Fantasyland and Tomorrowland.If you love fast rides and adrenalin pumping attractions, check out Space Mountain, Splash Mountain, Mad Tea Party and Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. I love the Haunted Mansion, Jungle Cruise, Main Street Vehicles, Pirates of the Caribbean, Transit Authority People Mover, Railroad and more.To save your time, get the fast pass but, you can only use the fast pass once in a specific time. Say, you took a fast pass at 10AM for three attractions. It will only work to one attraction. You need to get another fast pass in another time. It's free and you don't need to wait. Have fun!

The Wonders of Telecommunication Cables

Life is so much easier with the wonders of technology right? We can communicate our dear love ones who reside in another country with just a push of button from our cellphone or laptop. We can talk to them in real time and not only that, we can see them in real time too. It is affordable and gone are those days when sending expensive telegram took days.

With the invention of Telecommunication Cable, it makes our daily activities fun and easy to perform. Our phone lines are our lifeline in communicating to our family, workplace and without it, transmitting what we need is hard. We are living in a world where we rely on technology and accessing information from where we are is so easy. Our gadgets such as the phones, iPad, and laptops are now a necessity for communication purposes as well as the source of information.

The wire and cable are types of guided transmission mediums. Cables are known to transmit electric energy but in telecommunications fields, cables are used to transmit electromagnetic waves known as electromagnetic wave guides. This fact plays vital because telecommunications are based on transmitting modulated waves through a medium. With this being said, we may not notice the micro products around us but, without them, our gadgets will not perform the way it should be without them.

Last Minute Caribbean Cruising

With passport all set, our Europe travel will be on scheduled. I told hubby that before we live for Europe, I would like to have a Carnival cruising to Caribbean first. I just can't get enough of Bahamas. We cruise on Norwegian Sky last October and it was a fun 4-days experience for both of us together with hubby's daughter and her boyfriend.

We drove to Miami Port and that was tiring for hubby to drive. So; on the next trip, Port Canaveral is a good port of call to choose since we live nearby.

Checking of proper documents while taking the cruise is not bad at all. It went smoothly. If you do it online and check the necessary docs that they want you to show, nothing could go wrong.

The picture above is the city of Miami. You've seen it many times if you watch the TV show CSI:Miami. The place is gorgeous but, if you hate the metropolitan lifestyle, Miami is not your place.

Miami Port is one of the busiest port in the World.

I took on these pictures on the first day while we tried to familiarized the amenities of the ship. Cruising has last minute reservation and it is definitely cheap. If you hate planning your trip, check out the cruise lines today and you will surely get a good price.

Noise and Vibration Control

The new AC unit in the house is really noisy compared to the AC unit that we have in our condo property. I can tolerate this type of noise because the unit is located outside the house. We also have a sound control doors and windows. But sometimes, noise is really annoying and just a slight sound gets on my nerve! A sound is transmitted through vibrations into spaces where noise is not welcome at all. Places such as acoustic test enclosures, performance halls, rehearsal rooms, broadcast and recording studios are the places that require Vibration Isolation.

Big companies deal noise and vibration control by having sound absorbing wall barriers and noise enclosures. Other companies used sound control curtains which are inexpensive. We went to the house of a friend yesterday and we went inside his sound-proof family room. Budget wise, he said that he spent less considering the room is small but, the family loves to watch movies in that room. He got two teenagers who love strumming their guitars and play percussions. Having a sound proof room truly is wonderful to have. Neighbors will not be banging on their door for noisy activities in the house. Are you planning to have a noise and vibration control in the house or on your business place? Just visit the links above for more sensible information about their products.
