Come like a Horse, Sit like a Thief, and, Go like a King

Did you know. . .

. . . that today is the anniversary of the East Coast Blackout?
In 1965, an electric power failure caused a blackout over
northeastern United States, the largest blackout in history.
Around 25 million people and 80,000 square miles were left
without electricity for up to 12 hours. The cause of the
failure was human error when maintenance personnel incorrectly
set a protective relay too low.

Today's Inspirational Quote:

"Over the years I have developed a picture of what a human
being living humanely is like. She is a person who
understands, values and develops her body, finding it
beautiful and useful; a person who is real and is willing to
take risks, to be creative, to manifest competence, to change
when the situation calls for it, and to find ways to
accommodate to what is new and different, keeping that part of
the old that is still useful and discarding what is not."

"It is more important to know where you are going than to get
there quickly. Do not mistake activity for achievement."
