Neighborhood Chat / What does this mean for New York City?
« on: February 02, 2017, 04:47:15 PM »
When the president said he would cease to fund any Sanctuary City. What are the implications of that to us, Queens, Jackson Heights?

Also, OT, how can the government build a wall without following the rules: environmental impact statements, etc.?

Thanks for reading this. I am very confused.

Neighborhood Chat / A Good Word for InstaMedCare on Northern
« on: November 10, 2015, 07:39:12 PM »
For the past week I have had bursitis in my left shoulder. I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy. No amount of painkillers or heating pads did a thing.

Yesterday I went up to InstaMedCare on Northern & 80th St. I saw Dr. Schorr. He confirmed it was bursitis (ouch!) and said it would be treatable by a steroid injection. Unfortunately he didn't have a dose, but would by this morning. Meanwhile there was a gel available, but he didn't want me to order it because it cost $50 for 24 hours relief (until the injection was available.).

Sure enough this morning the shot was available. I received a phone call as soon as it arrived. I won't say it was painless, but the relief was almost immediate.

He has a good patient manner, the nurse was excellent and I'm no longer taking gobs of Tylenol.

Thank you, Dr. S.

This is an unsolicited recommendation, I was only compensated by lack of pain!

Dear Wired JH Members: What other sources besides this site (what sub-heading?), and jhfamilies are there to post upcoming events?

Dear Non Wired JH Members: How do we reach you?

This is a serious question. Would love any feedback. This would be helpful for us all!

See how Spot and Lassie compare to the others.

Real Estate & Home Improvement / Has anyone used HomeAdvisor.com or
« on: January 10, 2015, 03:46:17 PM »
AskAngie.com? I've seen them advertised on TV. For fun, I tried HomeAdvisor.com for a hypothetical kitchen reno. It said they had 3 names for me to contact but wanted my name, address, etc. At this point I bailed.

It would be great if there was a place to go that was reliable.

Pets and Animals / Blessing of the Animals - October 5th - St. Mark's
« on: October 03, 2014, 10:57:38 PM »
Hi all,

This probably goes in Community Activities, but if not, I'm sure the moderators will transfer it.

Yes! In the spirit of St. Francis, Patron Saint of Animals, St. Mark's is having its annual blessing of the animals at the 10:00AM service.

Animals of all kinds, dogs, cats, birds (chickens, too) - in fact, if it can fit through the door (probably not elephants, or camels) may attend. Only if their owners are well behaved!

Sadly, snakes are excluded. Sorry snakes - too much like the Garden of Eden debacle, I think.

In the past this has been a wonderful event, so come on over. The weather will be better on Sunday!

Where? The church on 34th Avenue between 81st & 82nd St. Entrance on 34th Avenue.
