Yorba Linda - In God We Trust

During the last City Council meeting, council members discussed displaying “In God We Trust” in the council chambers. A vote was not cast allowing time to gather data and put out a report for public review.

Some might say this is a violates Seperation of Church and State. I say you are wrong and this is not the City mandating what church you must attend and what God you must believe in. This is just a city displaying what the believe.

Yorba Linda is home to at least 14 churches that I have counted. We are also home to the largest Quaker Church in the world, Friends Church of Yorba Linda

The city council has my vote to approve the display of “In God We Trust” in the City Council Chambers.

Yorba Linda Continues To Rock & Roll

A minor earthquake, magnitued 3.0 occurred at 9:37 PM on Wednesday, July 30, 2008 in Yorba Linda. Just another reminder to get your emergency kits together.

You can visit http://www.data.scec.org/recenteqs/Maps/118-34.html for updates and information on recent Earthquake activity.

For tips/hints on how to prepare and what to include in your emergency kit visist the American Red Cross at http://www.redcross.org/services/disaster/0,1082,0_583_,00.html

Here are a few safety tips from the American Red Cross site:

Choose a safe place in every room–under a sturdy table or desk or against an inside wall where nothing can fall on you.

Practice DROP, COVER, AND HOLD ON at least twice a year. Drop under a sturdy desk or table, hold on, and protect your eyes by pressing your face against your arm. If there’s no table or desk nearby, sit on the floor against an interior wall away from windows, bookcases, or tall furniture that could fall on you. Teach children to DROP, COVER, AND HOLD ON!

Choose an out-of-town family contact.

Consult a professional to find out additional ways you can protect your home, such as bolting the house to its foundation and other structural mitigation techniques.

Take a first aid class from your local Red Cross chapter. Keep your training current.

Get training in how to use a fire extinguisher from your local fire department.

Inform babysitters and caregivers of your plan.
