If you are one of the super duper unlucky ones that have Comcast email this morning or everymorning you are unfortunate indeed!!! I wonder what really happened. I sure don’t know. Did Concast do everything they could or did the security team drop the ball??? We may never know the answer to that one but whatever the case…. security at Comcast has been breached!!! And that is not good for anyone in my opnion.

I personally love Gmail the best. Their security sems to be very good, but who really knows??? but I am not real sure if the Comcast email or Comcast webmail security department is that strong but I feel comfortable that Gmail has gone to great lengths to make sure their customers that security is a top priority. Security personal at comcast.net must be in a real panic this morning with as many customers as they have that are probably feeling like someone is asleep at the wheel at Comcast.

You may have heard of Diane Odell in the news recently when she passed away after living in a iron lung for about 60 years. I don’t mean to take away from Dianne Odell and her tragic story, my heart goes out to her family and friends but this story is about something completely different… a person with disabilities has “different abilities”.

If you have ever known anyone that has a disability it probably was not as difficult as it was for Dianne Odell. Her disability although worse than most, was indicative and perhaps an extreme example of the term that some use to describe these folks as having “different abilities”.

I was reading today about the magnitude 6.8 earthquake that hit near the coast of Japan early Thursday and thought that I would put out a call to anyone in the area that may have video that we could post.

It might be about injuries, damages or aftershocks to the earthquake. It is reported that there was another quake about a half hour later with 5.3 magnitude and that the original one was about 60 miles off the shore of Japan and about 25 miles deep in the ocean. So far there have been no reports of severe injuries although 2100 people are reported to be without power.

This is not the first time Japan has been hit by a major earthquake. Specifically Tokyo was hit in 1923 and 140,000 people were killed in the Great Kanto Earthquake and a 6.8-magnitude earthquake hit Japan in July 2007, shutting down a major nuclear power plant and leaving 11 people dead.
