Note: <888> 07/31/12 Tuesday 11:55 P.M. The stainless steel EveryReady flashlight bulb burned out, so I put in bulb from the Roy-O-Vac flashlight that does not work for some reason, so the EverReady flashlight with three D batteries on the white bookshelf at the kitchen entrance now works. The Ray-O-Vac flashlight has Lou Scott written on it in green paint, and for some reason even with a new bulb, it does not work. It is a very simple mechanism with a sliding copper connector, but I can not figure out why it does not work. I saw a car from Naples, Florida downtown tonight, so I guess we have visitors from Florida. Jim Eldert use to have relatives in Naples, Florida, and the first time I started washing dishes for a living was at the Howard Johnson's in Naples, Florida back in the winter of 1977, when Jim and I hitchhiked out of Key West to Naples across Alligator Alley only to find out his relatives were not there, so I worked a day at the Howard Johnson's there to get some money for food, and we then returned back to Key West.

I then went downtown, and I sat out for a while. I chatted with a local walker on my wireless telephone. I did not walk, because I did not feel like it. It was not very busy downtown.

I delivered another package to a neighbor. I chatted with a neighbor. I tried on the shirt, and it fits just fine. I hung it in the left center of my bedroom closet. They way I figure it, the people whom rent in Greenwich, Connecticut in July will be leaving today, and the super rich people whom rent in August will be arriving tomorrow, so we have to have the town in tip top formation for those renters. I hear tell some people pay a lot of money to rent houses in Greenwich, Connecticut in August, be we probably have to respect their privacy whomever they might be. I still have a large size Hemingway shirt in my bedroom closet that I have never worn. CIO

Note: <888> 07/29/12 Sunday 10:30 P.M. I watched a video about Malibu, California. I have not been out in California, since the week after election day in November 1980 which would be about 32 years ago, when I was 30 years old. Nobody paid any attention to me out there on my trips out there from October 1978 to November 1980, except for the fact that my cars had either Massachusetts or Connecticut license plates on them. I occasionally see cars back east from California, but I never figure out whom is driving them. There use to be an automobile rally from the Lock Stock and Barrel restaurant in Darien, Connecticut to the pier in Malibu, California back in the early 1970s, but it used so much gasoline that it caused the Arab Oil embargo, and the people left back east were left in the suburbs without gasoline, so we ended up spending a lot of time in Manhattan walking around in circles trying to make new friends. I guess most people are not interested in seeing what is in between both coasts of America, so they prefer to fly by jet back and forth. I sold my Belgium Volvo near Disneyland and left California by jet on my last trip. California is like a whole different country, when one gets out there. The people do not eat much red meat, and they seem to live on vegetables and sunshine and orange juice. I might still know a few people out there, but they have lost touch with me over the years. I also have relatives on the West Coast whom have settled out there. I will now shut down the primary work computer, and I will go to bed soon. I can not figure out anything new to do on my computers for the time being, but I have enjoyed getting outside in the sunshine and the fresh air and the daytime for a change. Californians tend not to smoke cigarettes, so they tend not to network with me, when I see them, but when I was out there, some of them would smoke clove cigarettes, and I will pretend they do not smoke anything else out there either. Maybe that is whey we never hear from them. I know they are into a lot of nature activities, but at my age I would not be to good at exploring the wilderness areas of California. Also I am told not to go out to the beach until after 3 P.M. in the afternoon, since I have already had too much sun in my life from my days in Nantucket and Florida. CIO

I then sat out briefly downtown. There is this distressing article in today's paper Tesei scouts waterfront home for Senior Center - GreenwichTime .

I left them in their box in the left hand living room closet to have available for winter walking. I drank a 12 ounce glass Lipton diet green tea. I noticed during my walk that Allied Property Group has a 1250 square foot ground floor office on Benedict Place across from www.jpmorgan.com for rent for $6,500 a month with four parking places, if one wants a nice house style office.

I do not make any money walking on Greenwich Avenue, but it is a change of pace from being at home. I can not afford to spend the $8 in gasoline to drive over to the beach at Tod's Point in Old Greenwich. Also the dermatologist told me a number of years ago, I should not go to the beach until after 3 P.M. in the afternoon.
The Corcoran Gallery of Art - Corcoran College of Art + Design has an exhibit going on of photographs of people at the beach over the last hundred years. I was once photographed on the pier at the Clarence Higgs beach in Key West, when I was about 135 pounds back in February 1982.

In a large salad bowl, I put in a half head of iceberg cello lettuce that I broke up into smaller pieces that are eatable. I added 40 baby carrots that I cut into quarters lengthwise. I then added a 3/4th of a cup of broccoli crowns that I cut into half inch to three quarters cubic inch pieces. I then added a half of a peeled cucumber that I sliced into 1/8th inch thick slices. I then added 8 quarter inch thick slices by 1.5 inch by 1.5 inch pieces of Vermont extra sharp cheddar cheese that I cut into half inch pieces.

Note: <888> 07/19/12 Thursday 7:20 P.M. I ate a few day old muffin. I threw out the garbage. I chatted with neighbors. I picked up the mail. I moved the Cambridge Sound Speaker System subwoofer on my living room television setup from on top of the Sony BluRay system to the right on top of the black breakfast tray on top of the www.harvard.edu chair. When I was around Fred Von Mierers when he was working in Manhattan, most of his clients would not get up early in the morning, and Billy Baldwin got him to get them interested in various types of breakfast trays, so I guess they slept late and ate breakfast in bed. Out here in the more primitive parts of Connecticut, people tend to eat breakfast at their kitchen tables, and drink coffee in the morning organizing their days and communicating with their neighbors. Of course the people whom are lucky enough to find jobs in Manhattan, probably eat a bowl of cereal on the run before they catch the train.

Video 2 from its remote control selects the Sony Media content. I then installed the Sony BluRay player on top of the Memorex DVD player on top of the Sony television in the living room. I setup the Netflix and Hulu content on the device, and it all works just fine on the Sceptre 23 inch LED TV off HDMI port 2. It will not play at the same time on the older Sony television, because the older Sony television is not HDMI, but that does not matter.

I checked outside my apartment, and the package with the Sony BluRay player was outside my door. I told the local FedEx office the package had arrived. I then received a telephone call from the Greenwich Housing Authority, and I told them the package had arrived. I chatted with a relative. I guess the building custodian had stored it away, and he delivered it this morning, but I have no confirmation to that fact. I then told the Greenwich Police department. I then chatted with Sony up in Toronto, Canada. I then chatted with the Nashville, Tennessee FedEx office. I then chatted with a friend and a relative. Thus my whole morning was spent on the telephone. I have only had about five hours sleep the last two days, so I am getting less sleep than normal. I feel like I am driving across country taking naps at various rest areas along the way. I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and milk and a sliced banana, a toasted English muffin with olive oil, watered down fruit punch, and a cup of coffee with splenda and milk.

On a sad note former Air Force General Walsh's 80 year old son Pete Walsh died after a prolonged illness today. He will be missed by family and friends. A memorial service will be held at a later time in Virginia. This is the only Walsh family member Official Biography: Major General Robert S. Walsh that I can find mention of on the internet that is in the military, so he might be a relative. Pete like talking about his friendship with Hugh D. Auchincloss - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia and the Corcoran Gallery of Art - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia and he was a lifetime member of the Alfalfa Club - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia and the Society of the Cincinnati - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. He liked spending his summers at remote beaches in New England with his many relatives and friends.

Note: <888> 07/18/12 Wednesday 11:30 P.M. I moved the Sony Media Player out of the kitchen hooked it up the same way to HDMI 2 to the Sceptre television in the living room and the Sony 24 inch Trinitron in the living room, so it is now available for living room viewing. I probably would not have not watched Netflix in the kitchen, but it might have been useful to watch cooking shows off the Sony Media device, but to be realistic I can not do any better cooking on my budget. I went outside, and I chatted with an older neighbor from the www.army.mil . I told him that the current government has more high tech devices than Cablevision. More than likely they are capable of tracking anyone that they chose. Also the media content from what I can tell on Cablevision is mostly Children's programming, so possibly the people whom watch satellite programming are watching more advanced television which I can not afford and besides people in my public housing project are not allowed to install satellite dishes. I also told the neighbor that the original concept of Cable TV when I lived in Greenville, South Carolina during the winter of 1976 next to the first Cable TV coming out of Atlanta which was a www.cbs.com station that we could program the local cable television content in each area or state, so for example the President of the United States in Texas might still be a Bush or Johnson, and the President of the United States in California might still be a Reagan, and the President of the United States in Illinois might still be a Lincoln or a Obama and the President of the United States in New York might still be a Roosevelt or Clinton or a Van Buren or a few other names people have forgotten. For all I know Lowell Weicker is the President of the United States in Connecticut, but nobody ever sees him around anymore except some of his relatives that like to stay very private. Thus if someone told you who they thought the President of the United States was, one would be able to know where they watch most of their television. After chatting with the neighbor, I walked around the building to make sure my package was not around the perimeter of the building. I chatted with a young person waiting for a friend in his car. His car was a www.honda.com that got 36 miles per gallon and had GPS. As I recalled the www.forbes.com family in New Jersey have the Honda franchise in New Jersey if you want to look for a cheaper Honda. Of course back in February 1975 during a blizzard in Manhattan, I threw a party across the street from the C.B.S. broadcast center on West 57th street for my two thousand closet friends, and for $5 you could have all of the liquor that you wanted in the blizzard. I drove my relatives in Chevrolet Monte Carlo from Greenwich in the blizzard to Manhattan and picked up Helen Kress Williams and Fred Von Mierers in Manhattan, and my relatives saw their apartments. There were about 200 security people at the party with a lot of younger people that like looking at the aquariums that were setup for decoration. I had a few Jack Daniels on the Rocks, and I recall talking to a large number of people including a concert pianist named Lance. One of the other guests told me that Lance was the grandson of the Emperor of Japan, so possibly some day if I ever make it to Japan I will see their more advanced electronics from an Imperial viewpoint. The party was in a large loft above the General Motors Automobile dealership on West 57th Street across from the C.B.S. broadcast center. As I recall from reading the guest list one of the VIP guests was suppose to be Henry www.ford.com . We did make it back safely to Greenwich that night. In later years that particular loft location was the headquarters of Amnesty International and also the Red Parrot discothèque night club which catered to the passengers off the cruise ships on the west side of Manhattan. The only celebrities that I recognized while I was at www.cbs.com for two or three months at the spring and summer of 1973 was Michael Thomas and Mr. Green Jeans. Because Watergate was going on , there was no local programming at CBS but a live feed from the Senate hearings. I recall once when I was sitting on the steps of the broadcast center, five thousand French sailors walked by off a French aircraft carrier, so I figured possibly there was a Coupe D'Etat going on in America that was not being broadcast. I knew the French government had a stockpile of nuclear weapons, so I figured they were possibly up to something besides shore leave. Possibly they planted a hidden nuclear device in Manhattan to have available in case Anglo French relations ever deteriorated. However, back then a number of other governments could have done the same thing, since from experience New Yorkers do not watch the waterfront very closely. I should know having seen a lot of waterfronts particularly in Manhattan. Thus if I don't gossip too much with the general public, it is not to scare them based on what I know. When I was at the C.B.S. broadcast center I was a clerk typist earning $85 a week doing the paper work on forms for billing for the commercials and I used an I.B.M. Selectric Typewriter. My office was next to 60 Minutes. I worked from 10 A.M. to 7 P.M., and I would watch the Evening news in the three television room across the hall from my office which I shared with about a dozen other people. I lived at the St. Clair residence on West 10th street just west of Fifth Avenue for $35 a week in a small room with hallway bathroom shared with other tenants. I took the subway from Union Square to 57th Street, and I would walk back and forth from the Carnegie Hall subway stop to the C.B.S. broadcast center on West 57th street. There was a pub in the Greenwich Village neighborhood where a lot of the C.B.S. employees hung out, and uptown at the Plaza Hotel Oak bar, I would see a lot of the White House staff that was being investigated. I lost my job because I had a hard time making it work before noon. However possibly since my immediate boss that fired me, might not have realized that the person who recommended me for the job was a Group President for the C.B.S. division of Creative Play Things, he might have overridden my immediate boss, and left me to do my own thing as best I could survive. Still from my viewpoint, once I quit showing up at the premises and my paycheck quit, I no longer worked for them, but a lot of people whom I had told I worked for C.B.S. might have thought I still do.

I went downstairs to get it, but it was not there. I called up FedEx, and they told me it was left in the United States Postal Service mail room at the building I live in. I looked around various locations in the building and chatted with neighbors. Two neighbors whom were using the adjacent laundry room at the time it was delivered said it had been left in the mail room. I called up FedEx again, and they said they would do an investigation. I called up the Greenwich Police, and they came over, and they told me I should wait to see if the building custodian knows anything about it, and possibly the building custodian might have locked it away for safe keeping. If not they would come by tomorrow and file a report. I left a message with the Greenwich Housing Authority to contact the building custodian. I called up Sony in Canada, and they told me they would replace it if stolen, but currently the item is not available. I chatted with a few more neighbors. Hopefully the building custodian has it, and it has not been stolen. I chatted with another neighbor. CIO

I put the Sony Streaming media device on top of the Sharp Convection oven on top of the refrigerator, but one does not have to reach it, since it is controlled by its remote control. To get the Sony Streaming media device content on the Sony television in the kitchen, one has to use the Sony television remote control and switch the TV/Video switch to Video 2. I ran a 25 foot LAN cable from the TrendNet router into the kitchen to the Sony Media device for its internet connection. Thus there will be a spare LAN cable available by the television setup in the living room besides the one for the BluRay device. CIO

I called up Safelite AutoGlass® - Windshield Repair & Replacement , and they can not fix the plastic clip on the passenger side front door window, and they said I would have to take it to an Audi dealership to get it repaired which would be over $400. I think for now I will leave the board inside the door that props up the window closed. For the procedure this video is available on the internet Audi A6 Power Window Repair - YouTube , however I am afraid of breaking the glass is I tried to do it myself. I am also not sure if the new replacement plastic clip is available to fix the defective clip that came with the Audi when it was new. I think Audi should have a recall, since they know the plastic window clip is defective, and they should fix it for free. CIO

As I have explained many times in my notes, when I went out west from 1978 to 1980 it was to look into living in a warmer climate and getting work in the computer industry which never happened as it never happened in Florida earlier. I am well settled in up north. We had a warm winter this past winter and will probably have a warmer winter this coming winter because of the 12th and 13th years of the Solar Flare cycle at their height in the 13 year cycle, but after that we will probably return to colder winters and cooler summers unlike the warmer summer we have had recently. Since Mount St. Helen's erupted May 18, 1980, I made two trips out west after that last event including a side trip to Hawaii and Maui, so although I could not afford to visit the Northwest, the people I was around out west were well aware of the Mount St. Helen's eruption, and knew there would be colder winters up north. I left Hawaii in August 1980 wearing a three piece vintage wool Brooks Brother's suit which the local islanders thought quaint. However that following winter in New Canaan, Connecticut there were extremely large Hawaiians working at the Mobil gasoline station on the Merritt Parkway, and apparently a lot of people who go to Hawaii also go to Alaska, so they probably had Alaska experience for the following colder winters. Thus I did my bit to get prepared, but with little funding they were awfully cold winters in 1981 and 1982 up north, but I was younger then. CIO
Note: <888> 07/11/12 Wednesday 8:05 A.M. In my life I have been as far south as the military super power of Tobago, and as far west as the military super power of Maui, and as far north as the military super power of Norway and as far east as the military super power of Turkey. I have spent all together on five trips to the Eastern Hemisphere from 1972 to 1992 about nine months in the Eastern Hemisphere. I have been in France, Italy, Switzerland, Spain, Lanzerote, Greece, Turkey on the first trip in 1972. In 1980, I visited Frankfurt, Germany. In 1983, I flew to Oslo, Norway and returned via Copenhagen, Denmark. In 1988, I flew into Düsseldorf, Germany and on to Munich and traveled by land to Innsbruck, Austria and returned the same way. In 1992, I flew to Paris France and via land I traveled through Brussels, and visited Amsterdam in the Netherlands and then back through Brussels, Luxemburg and back into France to Albertville with a side trip to Geneva, Switizerland and back to Albertville and returned to Paris and back to the Western Hemisphere on my last trip. On all of those trips I saw lots of security and military with lots of military and police carrying automatic weapons and machine guns. The most memorable event was when George Cary and I were in Greece during the Military dictatorship in the spring of 1972, and we drove from Athens east along the coast surrounded by the Greek National guard, and when we crossed the border into Turkey at 1 A.M. in the morning, George had fallen asleep, and I drove about five hours on a deserted two lane highway with Turkish machine gunners elbow to elbow on both sides of the road all of the way to the Bosporus which we crossed on a ferry, and on the other side there was no security, but the generator on the $300 red and white Opal station wagon broke, so I spend $5 to have it recoiled, and we continued south to a new resort that did not make the Michelin Guide and was deserted except for a German couple in an old green Volvo, and it was only $5 a night to stay there, and after a week stay we headed down to Selchuck to meet up with our other college classmates that flew by aircraft. Coming out of Istanbul back to Greece there was not much traffic or security. I did notice in Turkey a lot of the wealthier young boys had pet bears which I thought was sort of odd. CIO
Note: <888> 07/11/12 Wednesday 7:05 A.M. When I was around my friends in Plandome Manor, Long Island and Port Washington, Long Island and Manhasset, Long Island and the same family in Manhattan from 1978 to 1982, the paternal grandfather in the family was a colonel in the www.army.mil in Atlanta, Georgia. At Ronald Reagan's first inaugural, I had vodka and tonic drink at the Sheraton Hotel next to the www.whitehouse.gov , and the person sitting next to me looked like Stansfield Turner who ran the www.cia.gov . The person that ran the ice cream parlor in the basement of the Hilton Hotel next door looked like Jimmy Eldert whose grandfather was Richard Nixon's neighbor in Key Biscayne, Florida. I recall, I ordered a Butter Scotch Sunday. When I knew Wiley Middleton in Fort Lauderdale, Florida in the fall of 1976, he told me he had been in the www.usmc.mil in World War I, so more than likely he had younger friends who were in wars that came later. There are relatives of the Sherman family that also live in Greenwich, Connecticut. Brent Scocroft is around the Bush group, and I have obviously been around the Bush group. When I had lunch with the head of PARC, a Xerox company in Dana Point, California, the other guest was the head of Camp Pendleton. When I use to drink alcohol and travel, I used to frequently walk into bars where everyone was dressed in military officer's uniforms. When I was in St. Thomas, I sat next to somebody in a restaurant in a British Naval officer's uniform that looked like Prince Charles. In Key West, Florida; nobody could afford uniforms, so they just wore blue jeans of blue jean cut offs. A few rich people wore khakis. James Warburg senior here in Greenwich was in the Army Air Corps in World War I, and he was also an economist and under secretary of the treasury for Franklin Delano Roosevelt. My only expertise in weaponry is as a youth I used to own a Whamo sling shot and later on I practiced archery which I was pretty good at. At Lookout Mountain Camp, I qualified for the National Rifle Association badges with a 22 rifle when I was 8 and 9 years old. At www.lfc.edu I once bought a www.sears.com shotgun for $20 that was made in Japan for trap shooting, but the first time I tried to fire it, it fell apart into several pieces in my hand, but it did not harm me. I returned it to Sears and got my $20 back. I think I used friends' shotguns for trap shooting after that, but I was not very good at it. I have a friend locally that was in the www.army.mil and he is suppose to be an expert hunter and marksman, but he no longer visits anymore, because I live too far away from his new home. Also whenever he goes hunting anymore, he keeps getting Lyme Disease. CIO
Note: <888> 07/11/12 Wednesday 6:15 A.M. I use to see Charles De Gaulle's grandson around Manhattan. One could not miss him, because he was tall. In Illinois and Florida, I knew General Hurley's grandson. In Greenwich, Connecticut; I met Robert E. Lee's great grandson. The Mead family helped establish Greenwich, Connecticut; so they might have been related to General Mead. I once knew somebody with the last name Grant in Manhattan, but I don't know if he was related to Ulysses S. Grant or not. I also knew Grant family members in Illinois. Since I played a lot of golf from 1957 until 1968, I might have seen Eisenhower around a golf course, but I did not know who he was. I used to walk around the Waldorf Astoria neighborhood where General MacArthur's widow lived. I lived in Greenville, South Carolina for six months in 1976, and that is where General Westmoreland was from, and at Daniel Construction part of www.fluor.com , there were a lot of retired military personnel. Military people are always on the move, so if one moves around in the general public a lot like I do, more than likely one will see some military people. I used to see Alexander Haig in Manhattan. However, my grandfather Scott was a railroad engineer, and my father Louis Dale Scott was a chemical engineer, and I am an economist and personal computer engineer, so none of us were ever in the military. However, one of my grandfather Scott's brothers was in the Army Corps of Engineers. I have a relative that lives next door to an www.army.mil base. On my mother's side of the family her father was a dry goods store operator, and one of her brothers was an orthodontist in the www.af.mil . Of course, in Greenwich, Kennedy's secretary of the Army named Blair was from Greenwich. Having lived around the waterfront a great deal of my life, I have seen a lot of www.navy.mil and www.uscg.mil personnel. One of my best friend's in Alabama had a father who was the Presbyterian minister where Paris Island is located down in South Carolina. I don't follow military affairs, and the television media that I watch does not cover the military, so I do not know much about what is going on with the military today. Since I am an economist, I watch the business news which I know something about. I exercise walk to stay fit and to stretch my eye vision away from the computer monitor. CIO
Note: <888> 07/11/12 Wednesday 5:45 A.M. Since I lived in Pensacola, Florida from 1953 to 1955, I was probably around a lot of retired senior military veterans, whom probably are not around anymore. I remember some of them use to talk about the Civil War and the Spanish American War. In Alabama, I use to ride horses on General Joe Wheeler's plantation, but I am not sure if General Joe Wheeler was still around or not. CIO
Note: <888> 07/11/12 Wednesday 5:35 A.M. I might still have a friend from the 1970s still left in Manhattan. He produces video, and he walks a lot, since his father was a Major at Fort Hood in Texas, and since Fort Hood is the size of the state of Rhode Island, he was use to walking a lot, so he walked a lot in Manhattan. The last I knew he lived near the www.forbes.com building downtown in Manhattan, and he also used to live near the telephone company switching center in lower Manhattan near the headquarters of Military Intelligence, before it was moved to Fort Devens in Massachusetts. He knew a lot of night time people, but he might have retired elsewhere, since many of his friend probably left Manhattan years ago. Another friend might be there, and his family name belongs to a military academy in another state. I guess the most senior military person that I met while I was in Manhattan was when I first moved there in January 1973, and around December 1973, I had lunch down on Wall Street with General Pershing's grandson who was a friend of a friend of a friend of mine. He did not hire me for his Wall Street firm though. CIO
Note: <888> 07/11/12 Wednesday 4:35 A.M. I watched series 3 episode 4 of "Sherlock Holmes". In the good old days, when the Greenwich Hospital Thrift shop used to sell electronics, they used to get quite a number of Holmes humidifiers, so I guess the Holmes family branched out into electronics in the modern generations.
About the most significant business news I head on Bloomberg TV Bloomberg Television: Live TV - Bloomberg was that Donald www.trump.com finally opened his authentic Scottish golf course up in Scotland Trump opens controversial $150M golf course in Scotland - CNN.com and Trump International Golf Links - Scotland . I guess he could not afford to join the GreenwichCC - Golf & Country Club . I once met Donald Trump's caddy from the Winged Foot Golf Club over 20 years ago, and the individuals was a long distance runner, so I figured he would be good communications in case modern electronic communications failed. He could easily run 20 miles in the old days without effort, but perhaps after all of these years, he is cooling his heels. Possibly he trained a newer replacement since he became a physical fitness trainer, and his father started the jogging revolution in Manhattan. I won't tell you what he said about Donald Trump, but in my case I am shaped like a pumpkin these days. Thus when rich people make money they tend to get out of shape, and even poor people when they try to make money spending all of their time on the internet for 22 years, they end up getting out of shape too. I used to drive over to White Plains, New York at night on cold winters nights to a pub where there were cold weather people and even a few New York Rangers type of people hanging out, but recently the more Nordic people have been fewer and farther between and hard to find anymore. Besides Greenwich, Connecticut is a lot more peaceful than White Plains, New York. White Plains, New York does have a half dozen five star hotels and very good security. I drove over to White Plains, New York a little before midnight many years ago, when www.compusa.com was having Midnight Madness for the launch of Microsoft Windows 95, and the CompUSA store for some odd reason was closed. I did notice in driving through White Plains, New York, I saw a tiny young Hispanic fellow driving a tiny little old beat up foreign car driving the wrong way down a one way street about four lanes wide, and out of nowhere about 50 www.chevrolet.com police cars intercepted him for driving the wrong way down a one way street. White Plains, New York has Cornell Medical Center, New York Hospital and the Burke Rehabilitation Institute, so they have a large number of medical personnel and staff awake all night over there serving the Westchester County area. Also I have noticed that the White Plains, New York Airport has one flight a day on Northwest Airlines to Rochester, Minnesota where the Mayo Clinic Mayo Clinic is located. Thus besides the New York City hospitals and the Connecticut hospitals, there is also the nearby Westchester County hospital network. Also there is a Cardiac Hospital I believe in Valhalla, New York nearby White Plains. CIO

I stopped by CVS. I bought a 3 quart bottle Clorox Bleach for $1.99 and .13 tax for $2.12 total. I sat out at various locations. I chatted with a couple from Columbia about life down south. I waved at a few regulars from Starbucks. I returned home. I chatted with neighbors. CIO
Note: <888> 07/10/12 Tuesday 7:10 P.M. I took two 6 foot YnPbPr cables, and I connected them together with three RCA cable connectors. I ran the 12 foot length of cable from the bedroom Cablevision Digital Cable box to the Sceptre 23 inch LED TV YnPbPr cable connection, and then I took a 12 foot RCA audio cable, and I ran it from the bedroom Cablevision Digital Cable box to the RCA audio inputs on the Sceptre 23 inch LED TV. Now on the Sceptre 23 inch LED TV, the input selection for the living room Digital Cablevision box is TV or HDMI1 with HDMI1 as the best connection. The input selection for YnPbPr is for the bedroom digital Cablevision cable box, HDMI2 is for the Sony Streaming media device, and input HDMI3 is for the Memorex DVD player and AV is the video feed from the FIC server. Thus I don't need the 25 HDMI cable that I have ordered, and all of my devices are connected.

I have the Cambridge Sound speaker system and the Sceptre LED TV power cables hooked up the Phillips power squid on top of the Sony television, so that has to be turned on to use the devices.
