Oh goodness – first it was “Cash for Clunkers” now “Cash for Caulkers”?

Oh goodness – first it was “Cash for Clunkers” now “Cash for Caulkers”?

You got to be kidding me. With all the current problems that our great country keeps trying to dig out from underneath the best that we can do is insulate our homes? It just makes me wonder why in the world we keep electing these goobers and not small business people to run the country. These elected officials have no idea how to run a business they do not know how to make money or meet an payroll – just how to spend money that they do not have!!

Reporting from Washington - Declaring that insulation is "sexy," President Obama today pushed Congress to create a program giving homeowners cash incentives to improve their energy efficiency by replacing windows, caulking leaks and modernizing heaters and air conditioners.

Last Chance To Act Before USFS Decides Tellico Closure Appeals

This is your last chance to make a difference in the Rescue Tellico fight before the Forest Service makes a decision on the appeals that have been filed. I'm trying to make this as easy as possible, it is up to YOU to follow through!

Go here: http://www.votesmart.org/index.htm , type in your zip and get a list of your elected officials email addresses. Copy and paste the following and send it to them ASAP!

Dear Congressman/Senator,

I know you are busy, especially at this time of year, but I wonder if you are actually aware of the issue at stake in the public’s struggle with the Forest Service over access to the Upper Tellico OHV trails! In short, The Forest Service has been negligent in performing maintenance on OHV trails at the Upper Tellico OHV area for 15 years. Now they have decided to close public access instead of fixing their mess! This type of shoddy work on behalf of the American public CANNOT be allowed to happen! WHO will be held accountable? If the FS is allowed to proceed with this closure it will open a door to closure of public access in the entire United States! Who will stand in the gap?

Here is a link to the appeal filed by the Southern Four Wheel Drive Association & Blueribbon Coalition: http://www.sfwda.org/forum/uploads/3...IA_27Nov09.pdf

Here is a link to the appeal filed by SFWDA Member Flint Holbrook, Flint is a Registered Professional Engineer in TN, KY, OH, WV, NC & SC and is a Registered Professional Hydrologist with over 25 years of experience in the field. http://www.sfwda.org/forum/uploads/3...IA_27Nov09.pdf
The FS has insisted on conference calls for contact instead of face to face meetings, has denied all off the requests in Flint's appeal including 1 day access to the trails by vehicle to confirm FS assertions and his FOIA requests.

The FS is stonewalling access advocates at each turn and "checking off their box" as having followed the rules of mandate if not ethics!

Both of these appeals are professionally written and contain numerous scientific, procedural and ethical examples of FS malfeasance in managing the Upper Tellico OHV area!

I know my elected officials are having a hard time in DC right now with everything else going on but if the FS is allowed to exhibit this type of malfeasance and get away with it where will it stop? Who will be held accountable to the American people for not doing their job and when?

Without some type of pressure from responsible agency USDA and my elected officials the FS will continue to close public access to public lands at their own discretion!

The 45 day appeal window is now closed. The FS Deciding Officer, one of their own hand picked representatives, will make a decision by January 14, 2010. PLEASE help motorized recreation Americans protect our access to public lands!

What happened to selling yourself?

What happened to selling yourself?

My son who is attending NASCAR Technical institute in Mooresville, NC has had a heck of a time finding a job. He needs work to be able to pay for gas and food his mom and I are taking care of the rest of his bills till he graduates. After having car problems 10 days ago and not coming home for the Thanksgiving holiday he finally called and asks for help.
So I took a day off and headed 300 plus miles over to see if I could figure out what was wrong with the car. It seems that the upper radiator hose got a hole in it near the thermostat neck. He cut of the bad part of the hose and re-attached it. This in turn broke the plastic radiator. When he tried to find a hose no one had one that would work. I went to NAPA and they had both hoses. I found a new radiator on eBay shipped to the house for $100.00 (Christmas time project). So I glue the new hose on to the broken radiator and let it cure. The hose holds – go fill the car up with fuel and drive it for 20 miles of so to make sure that it holds. All is good on project number one.
Now on to NTI – I want to check on the job board for possible job openings. Luckily there is a bunch of them and I start writing down the numbers so that he can get the contact info for them. Here is where is get weird to me. You can not just go in and fill out a job application anymore. All of the jobs have to be applied for on line and then contact the employer. So how do you get a chance to even get an interview for a job? It seems to me that when you get to apply in person you have the chance of making that impact of “Here I am”. The fact that these are entry level, not for management seems to me that a young guy or gal really has no chance unless they are friends with the owner or know someone that works there. Heck – what is you do not have internet access? Just makes me wonder how the next generation will enter the work place unless they are very internet savvy… Of course most of them are! There were two jobs that did not require applying on-line… a pizza place and a carwash. So, if anyone knows of a job in the Mooresville, NC area needing an 18 year old gear head – please let me know.
