The Red Sox won yesterday. They finally had a day off, poor lads, on Monday. Too much playing, too many countries, too much flu. They all deserve a visit to a vacation villa on st john usvi, which they can find by logging on to www.frankbayvillas.com, which is the authority on villa rentals.
Wow, it is raining now. I was hoping to blow some leaves away. Maybe M will be disappointed. Maybe she will just be happy to be home.

Page rank of three
This little blog about renting villas on st john usvi has a page rank of 3, and the main page has a page rank of 7. How the heck does the title/main page get a rank of 7, you ask. Well, nobody knows. Least of all the st john yacht club, which finally got into the rankings yesterday. Made it into all the search engines. Things will start happening now at www.stjohnyachtclub.org. Caribbean Yacht Clubs will be all nervous of the intense publicity generated on st john.

Patriots Third Pick
The Patriots picked another linebacker with their third pick. Someone named Crable, who is a big fast guy. He might be turned into a third down passrush specialist, or an occasional sub for the starters. Of course, immediately he will be on special teams. But in a couple of years, he and Mayo should be the starters. I hope Seau makes it another year. They they would have loads of depth.
Bruschi, Seau, Mayo in the middle.
Thomas, Vrabel, Crable on the outside.
And some guy they picked up as free agent.
A very strong position.

Celtics won again, very easily of course
The Boston Celtics won last night, and I stayed up late and watched it. Amazingly, I was able to stay awake and then went to bed all by myself. M is in Ohio right now, unless she is in Pittsburgh. The next Celtics game is in a day or two, in Atlanta, and they should win it extremely easily, probably by 50 points or so.
And later, www.stjohnyachtclub.org will be available for them to look at. All about yacht clubs in the caribbean.

42 plus 1 = 43
This poor little blog has only 42 posts, while the next one has 43. So today is just a day to add some potrzebie to it and make it equal. Blogs 3 and 4 will also get a post today, while number two will be left alone. No mention of anything at all today in any of them. Just more potrzebie.

Two posts behind number one
This is a post about catching up. Everyone should try to be equal to the others, especially the posts. Today, this information about volcanoes and moons was two posts behind the other ones in the blog, so I will put something here and not in the others. The velocity of a body in motion is perpendicular to the azimuth of the apogee. And it doesn't accelerate nearly as much as pi x the square of the area.

Thatch Cay Article from The Source today.
Thatch Cay Proposal Gets Mixed Reviewsby Pamela Reid Bussard
David Olsen, former DPNR Fish and Wildlife Director supported the monitoring and review on any conditional approval of any applicaton. (Pamela Reid Bussard photo). April 18, 2008 – While most environmentalists want offshore keys left alone, the presentation of the plans to develop Thatch Cay gave over 60 Coastal Zone Management hearing attendees a vision of development some said they could live with. More than 60 residents along with the CZM commissioners listened Thursday night to architect Robert deJongh’s two-hour presentation about the development. Testimony from the public at the CZM hearing held at the Department of Planning and Natural Resources office on St. Thomas ranged from cautiously receptive comments to outrage to character references for the developers. Some thought the developers had taken too much time to explain the project while not enough time was given to those testifying. But the tone of those testifying was mild compared to the vehement opposition vocalized at the recent Christmas Cove application hearings. (See Click for rest of article )
A D V E R T I S I N G : Dalma Simon, member of the Environmental Association of St Thomas, urged people to visit Thatch Cay, an offshore island close to Smith Bay and see for themselves. Simon said he was surprised when he saw the island. “It was nothing more than a rock," Simon said. He testified that the development “probably needs to be scaled back a bit.” Helen Gjessing, chairwoman of the Committee on Planning and Environmental Quality of the League of Women Voters of the Virgin Islands said the League dreaded reviewing the plan. "not merely because of the inevitable adverse environmental impacts the development will have, but because this proposal is simply one of several applications for the development of small islands off the coast.” Gjessing added, “This proposal may be the best that we can expect because we have to recognize that Thatch Cay LLC has selected a very well-qualified group of professionals.” Gjessing lamented that zoning law revisions hadn’t been made long ago to prevent offshore cays from being zoned in the same manner as plots on St. Thomas. Along with Simon, several testifiers also felt the density of the project should be further reduced. Some questioned the developer’s economic feasibility study, while lauding the developer's plans to propagate native plants for the project and finally recommended more details be provided from the developers about erosion mitigation. David Olsen, chief scientist for the St. Thomas Fishermen’s Association and former Director of the Division of Fish and Wildlife, attributed the audience’s generally measured reaction to the application’s thoroughness. In the last year, CZM has denied a couple of applications in part because there was insufficient consideration on the part of the developers of the consequences of their proposal, Olsen said. “The developers met with a wide variety of people – that is very unusual – this is almost the first time that I have seen this level of analysis," Olsen said. Developers’ efforts to reach community groups for input resulted in several modifications to development plans, according to deJongh. Slated to develop 11 percent of eligible land, the plan preserves much of the remainder for wildlife. Incorporating solar energy and other environmentally-friendly efforts will minimize impact on the area’s natural resources, deJongh said. Access to the island itself will be controlled, but, boaters will still be able to access the shoreline under the Open Shorelines Act. “Access to the shoreline is part of the heritage of the people of the Virgin Islands," said Alan Smith, attorney for the developers. However, the rest of the island is a private development and even those who own property there will have to inform and schedule arrival through Thatch Cay management. Schools and similar groups can make arrangement to visit the island through the island’s discovery center, Smith said. “These developers really did a planning job of a quality that we have not really seen before and the attendees saw for the first time the degree of planning that should be done." Olsen said. He hopes this application represents a standard to which that all major developments would be held. “It would be hard to deny this project.". CZM Chairman Austin Monsanto said that the commission would accept public comment for seven more days. Comments should be typewritten and sent to the office of the director of Coastal Zone Management. For more information contact the CZM at 340-774-3320.

Nothing at all to report
No news at all in the world today, so I am not going to report anything. Red Sox, Celtics, Bruins, Patriots, and Revolution made no news. St. John USVI was silent. I am going to put up a banner this morning and buy ice, and then have people over for dinner. Ho hum, a quiet day.
