    Brainy Quote ~ Benjamin Franklin 026

    Brainy Quote ~ Benjamin Franklin 026 “If you would be loved, love, and be loveable.” ~ Benjamin Franklin 026 ~ Ok “Jika Anda ingin dicintai, mencintailah, dan jadilah seorang yang dapat dicintai.” ~ Benjamin Franklin 026 ~ Ok Apakah Anda ingin dicintai? Mampukah Anda mencintai orang lain sebagaimana Anda ingin dicintai? Tahukah Anda bagaimana cara mencintai? Dapatkah Anda dicintai seperti Anda ingin mencintai orang lain? Mencintai dan dicintai merupakah dua kondisi yang saling mendukung dan berada dalam posisi seimbang. Seseorang yang ingin dicintai maka ia harus mampu mencintai. Demikian juga, seseorang yang mau mencintai, maka ia pun harus dapat dicintai. Demikianlah yang pernah disampaikan Benjamin Franklin, dikenal sebagai Bapak Pendiri Amerika Serikat, berkebangsaan Amerika, hidup dalam rentang tahun 1706-1790, melalui quote-nya, ‘If you would be loved, love, and be loveable.’ Secara bebas diterjemahkan, ‘Jika Anda ingin dicintai, mencintailah, dan jadilah seorang yang dapat dicintai.’ Cintai merupakan dua arah! Saling mencintai merupakan wujud bila kita memiliki cinta dan kita dapat memperoleh cinta. Setiap orang yang dapat saling berbagi dan saling meneguhkan merupakan buah dari cinta sejati. Tidak ada cinta satu arah! Hal yang sulit kita mau mencintai bila kita sendiri tidak mau dicintai. Demikian juga, hal yang mustahil kita memperoleh cinta bila kita pun tidak berniat untuk mencintai. Tuhan telah menganugerahkan cinta kasih kepada manusia. Maka sudah seyogyanya kita mampu mencintai semua ciptaan-Nya, terutama sesama manusia. Orang-orang yang dipenuhi cinta kasih adalah orang-orang kaya, terlepas dari kekayaan harta benda yang dimilikinya. Seseorang yang kaya raya secara materi dan kebendaan, bila ia tidak memiliki cinta kasih, sesungguhnya ia orang yang miskin. Brainy Quote ~ Benjamin Franklin 026 Page 1 Kita mampu mencintai bila kita juga mau dicintai.

  • Proposed Bridge Toll and PATCO Fare Schedules

    Proposed Bridge Toll and PATCO Fare Schedules

    Proposed Bridge Toll and PATCO Fare Schedules July 2008 Dear DRPA and PATCO Customers: Thank you for your interest in the Delaware River Port Authority and Port Authority Transit Corporation. We appreciate the opportunity to present to you the proposed changes to the toll and fare structures. For the last several years, we have committed to cost-savings measures that have enabled us to operate without changes to our toll or fare structures. However, we now face a very challenging time as our future needs will require us to find additional revenue sources to fund our Capital Program which is critical to maintaining the safety, security and serviceability of our assets. We are confident that with the feedback received from you, our customers, we will be able to propose a plan to our Board of Commissioners that will enable us to face the challenges that lie ahead. We value your opinion and look forward to your comments and suggestions. Yours truly, John J. Matheussen Chief Executive Officer, Delaware River Port Authority President, Port Authority Transit Corporation The Delaware River Port Authority The Delaware River Port Authority of Pennsylvania and New Jersey is a regional transportation agency. DRPA’s lines of business, collectively called “the Authority,” operate under the motto “We Keep the Region Moving.” DRPA traces its roots back to 1919 when leaders from the two states began planning for a bridge across the Delaware River. That bridge, now known as the Benjamin Franklin Bridge, was once the longest suspension bridge in the world. Today, more than 80 years after its opening, the Benjamin Franklin Bridge remains a key transportation artery and a regional landmark.
  • Right of Way Improvement Standards

    Right of Way Improvement Standards

    RIGHT OF WAY IMPROVEMENT STANDARDS PHILADELPHIA STREETS DEPARTMENT David J. Perri, P.E. Commissioner Michael A. Carroll, P.E. Deputy Commissioner of Transportation Stephen Lorenz Chief Highway Engineer June 2015 Last Rev: N/A Forward Over the past several years, the Streets Department has undergone some transformative changes. From the Great Recession of 2008, we have entered into a time of major construction and development. With this “New Boom”, demands for a better understanding of the technical and regulatory requirements of the Department have grown dramatically. These demands have occurred concurrently with an increasing need for enforcement of Federal, and State laws, as well as a series of laws and initiatives adopted by the City of Philadelphia. In addition to seeking to fulfill the obligations defined within the Philadelphia Home Rule Charter, and the Philadelphia Code, the Streets Department has recognized the need to ensure compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (1990), and the Underground Utility Line Protection Act, PA Act 287 (1974, and as revised), all within a framework defined greatly by Philadelphia Code §11-900 (Complete Streets). The purpose of these Right of Way Improvement Standards is to gather the standard requirements of the Streets Department into a single source. Much of the content of this publication derive from established Streets Department resources, as well as standards established, or influenced, by our sister departments, and partners with the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the U.S. Government. As a living document, this Standard is subject to periodic revision, as the needs of this great City continue to grow, and new practices and technologies within our street network become available.
