Constant Plane Noise This Morning

[amy-s1.livejournal.com]

Let me say this first before you call me a whiner - watch the planes on this map for this morning of Friday 12/11: http://www4.passur.com/bos.html

You can replay any point in time with the menu bar at the top, you can even speed it up to 10X. Or you can watch "live" with a 10 minute delay.

Now, if those green planes dont go right over where you live, dont call the rest of us whiners. If they do go right over you, you know what I am talking about. My 5 month old daughter is constantly woken up by these planes and they can rattle the house.

Watch the flow of the planes coming off of runway 33L (the long one that points straight at Chelsea). The vast majority of them bank left and come straight over Davis Square almost every time. How about a little distribution over Harvard Sq, West Cambridge, etc?? Not to mention winds this morning are from the W/SW, not the Northwest.

Now, lets log complaints here: http://www.massport.com/logan/airpo_noise_compl.html

Shabbat dinner at Havurat Shalom

Free!

Join us for services followed by a potluck, dairy/vegetarian Shabbat dinner. Services at Havurat Shalom are egalitarian, lay-led and usually involve a lot of singing. The potluck is truly pot luck - no arranging of the dishes in advance. The meal is a good time to meet people and we welcome newcomers.

Somerville tax rates to rise

No big surprise here but with pay freezes, furloughs, gas, utilities, insurance, etc. I was probably doing better in real terms 10 years ago. Ultimately everything runs on the back of the little folks.

Ugg Black Cardy Boots - 8

[bangie24.livejournal.com]

Hi all,

I'm selling a brand new pair of black Ugg Classic Cardy boots, size 8, that I just bought. Unfortunately, they were a bit too big on me. If you're interested in buying, contact me and I can show them to you. I was hoping to get what I paid for them ($115). They are usually $140. Here's my craigslist post:

Thanks!

The Jingle Bell Runaround

Any other Davis Square residents around here whose Sunday schedules will be inconvenienced by The Jingle Bell Run? I complained in more detail about it over on Somerville Voices.
