Super Bowl XLV, North Texas -- 2011

Super Bowl XLV will be played in the Dallas Cowboys' new stadium in Arlington, Texas that is set to open in 2009. The site of the 2011 Super Bowl was decided at the owners' meetings in Nashville on May 22, 2007.

Rumor has it that the American Football Conference (AFC) Champions Teams lodging and practice sessions will be held at Texas Christian University (TCU). What an exciting time to live in University West.

Mosquito Season is Upon Us

The Fort Worth area received an unusual amount of rain this spring and with the rain comes the mosquitoes. I make an organic yard spray out of natural herbs and oil that keeps mosquitoes at bay. There are organic sprays that cost about $150/gallon of concentrated ingredients. If interested in my formula let me know. Cost is about $20 (will cover 16,000 sq') and time to make will take about 1/2 hour. Let's make this neighborhood a mosquito free area.

Below is an article regarding natural remedies and hype regarding the West Nile Virus.


Topic
Mosquito Spraying & West Nile Virus
By Howard Garrett
West Nile Virus is the most overblown health threat since the “killer bees.” Yes, people have gotten sick and a few have even died from WNV, but people need to get a grip and try to put things into perspective. One person has died this year from WNV. Thousands of people have died from asthma and other respiratory diseases.
The city of Fort Worth has impressed me. They have done the right thing. They have realized that spraying does more harm than good and has spent their effort educating homeowners. The city of Dallas and other metropolitan areas across the country have been foolish. These cities have listened to the chemical pushers under the misconception that spraying toxic chemicals is helpful in controlling the mosquitoes.

Neighborhood Electric Vehicles (NEV)

NEVs come in two speeds: golf cars are limited to speeds under 20 mph while low-speed vehicles (as defined by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) are capable of up to 25 mph. Low-speed vehicles must have seatbelts, windshields, turn signals, headlights, brake lights and other safety equipment that golf cars don't require. NEVs are designed to be used in residential areas with low density traffic and low speed zones. With a top speed of 25 mph, low-speed vehicles can be used on streets with a posted 35 mph speed limit or less. Some local jurisdictions (e.g. Palm Springs) also allow golf cars on public streets. When driven on public streets, a driver's license is required.

Why would I want an NEV?
