New Website Idea

Posted on May 11th, 2007 by The SUBWAYblogger in Live Blogging On the Subway

This morning’s 3 train service was suspended north of 96th Street “because of a police investigation.” Ok, so that sounds like a good reason. A little security/safety is alright. But what were they investigating?

That’s SUBWAYblogger’s idea for a new website. There should be a site where you can go to see the “official” investigation reports any time there’s an unplanned service outage.

Everytime there’s a service disruption in the middle of rush hour, straphangers are left wondering what the hell it was for. A site that pulled all that info together would be awesome.

Unfortunately, it would probably be reliant upon the police filing their reports in a timely manner. The interest would probably wear off if a report didn’t become available until weeks later.

Live from the subway, back to you in studio…

    I live near Coney Island in B’klyn. Jackass transit workers come out of the Stillwell Avenue Control Office, get a few beers in them and brag about how they sometimes feel like Chinese food so they go ahead and phone an order in to Chinatown in Manhattan and then shut down the entire N, north or south bound, dependent upon whether they’re on the way into the city to pick up the food or into B’klyn to bring it back to Stillwell.That’s just one example of the blatant abuses inflicted upon the general public by a few jerks flexing they’re tiny little muscles.All commuter interruptions should be strictly monitored, classified and documented. We the people should demand this, because we’re the ones getting screwed daily.Ever notice how the transit system slows considerably every time the transit worker contracts are up for renewal?These people are terrorists and no one is stopping them or doing anything about it.

    It is my belief that mesothelioma is usually the most fatal cancer. It’s got unusual features. The more I really look at it the more I am assured it does not react like a true solid tissue cancer. In the event that mesothelioma is actually a rogue viral infection, in that case there is the prospects for developing a vaccine along with offering vaccination to asbestos uncovered people who are open to high risk associated with developing upcoming asbestos linked malignancies. Thanks for sharing your ideas about this important ailment.

    One thing I would like to discuss is that weightloss program fast can be performed by the proper diet and exercise. Your size not merely affects appearance, but also the general quality of life. Self-esteem, major depression, health risks, plus physical ability are impacted in excess weight. It is possible to make everything right and still gain. If this happens, a condition may be the culprit. While excessive food and never enough body exercise are usually the culprit, common medical conditions and popular prescriptions can greatly enhance size. Thanks a bunch for your post here.

    Thanks for your posting. Another thing is that being photographer includes not only difficulties in taking award-winning photographs but in addition hardships in acquiring the best photographic camera suited to your needs and most especially struggles in maintaining the quality of your camera. This can be very true and visible for those photographers that are directly into capturing the actual nature’s interesting scenes – the mountains, the actual forests, the particular wild or maybe the seas. Visiting these adventurous places certainly requires a dslr camera that can meet the wild’s hard area.

    Thanks for expressing your ideas on this blog. Furthermore, a myth regarding the finance institutions intentions when talking about property foreclosure is that the bank will not have my payments. There is a fair bit of time in which the bank will need payments every now and then. If you are also deep inside the hole, they’ll commonly desire that you pay the payment in full. However, i am not saying that they will not take any sort of repayments at all. Should you and the financial institution can have the ability to work some thing out, the particular foreclosure method may end. However, in the event you continue to neglect payments wih the new plan, the property foreclosure process can just pick up exactly where it was left off.

    Yet another issue is that video games can be serious in nature with the major focus on learning rather than fun. Although, there’s an entertainment feature to keep your sons or daughters engaged, just about every game will likely be designed to focus on a specific set of skills or area, such as mathematics or scientific disciplines. Thanks for your posting.

    The subsequent time I learn a weblog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I imply, I do know it was my choice to read, however I truly thought youd have something attention-grabbing to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you would fix should you werent too busy looking for attention.

    Thanks for the tips you share through this web site. In addition, several young women who seem to become pregnant will not even attempt to get health insurance coverage because they worry they probably would not qualify. Although some states right now require insurers provide coverage in spite of the pre-existing conditions. Costs on most of these guaranteed programs are usually greater, but when thinking about the high cost of health care bills it may be some sort of a safer route to take to protect the financial future.

    One thing I would really like to say is the fact that before getting more laptop or computer memory, look into the machine in to which it could be installed. Should the machine will be running Windows XP, for instance, the actual memory threshold is 3.25GB. Using over this would easily constitute just a waste. Make sure that one’s motherboard can handle the particular upgrade volume, as well. Interesting blog post.

    I have acquired some new points from your internet site about desktops. Another thing I have always presumed is that laptop computers have become something that each household must have for most reasons. They offer convenient ways in which to organize homes, pay bills, go shopping, study, tune in to music and in some cases watch tv shows. An innovative strategy to complete all of these tasks is by using a notebook. These personal computers are mobile, small, effective and convenient.

    Thanks for your post. I also believe that laptop computers are becoming more and more popular lately, and now will often be the only form of computer used in a household. The reason is that at the same time that they are becoming more and more very affordable, their working power is growing to the point where they can be as strong as desktop computers from just a few in years past.

    Thanks for discussing your ideas. I might also like to express that video games have been at any time evolving. Today’s technology and enhancements have assisted create practical and enjoyable games. These kinds of entertainment video games were not actually sensible when the actual concept was being tried. Just like other kinds of know-how, video games too have had to progress as a result of many ages. This is testimony for the fast development of video games.

    Thanks for the points you have contributed here. One more thing I would like to express is that laptop or computer memory specifications generally go up along with other advances in the technology. For instance, whenever new generations of processor chips are introduced to the market, there’s usually a related increase in the size and style preferences of all computer system memory plus hard drive space. This is because the program operated by means of these processors will inevitably surge in power to make use of the new technologies.
