The Town of Vienna has decided

There were two interesting decisions/approvals by the Town of Vienna and it's governing council:

1) A new building was approved, on 12/15/08, at 137 Church St, NW. The new building will house the YAS bakery, to include: it's main area, work room, lunch room, and a small office. The building will also have room for a few other renters/tenants. The new structure will bring improvements to the stormwater management abilities of the current site.

2) The Town Council also took vote to approve more defined restrictions on portable storage containers. These containers will be allowed, only in residential single family home areas, for no more than 30 days in a year period. They will also be permitted for no longer than 6 months on active construction areas. Mentions to limitations on the size of such containers, and a fee to the town, were also inlcuded in the ordinance amendment.

Although not directly part of Tysons Corner, The Town of Vienna borders it. The Town of Vienna is also chock full of great history and culture.

Results may be in, but Voting isn't over!

Gerald E. Connolly has now been elected to Congress. Prior to the election he promised to continue to champion the Metro Extension to Dulles airport. That is a good thing for the Tysons community. He has been a part of this process from very early on. Let us all make sure that he keeps his promise.

And now a motivational note:

No matter what industry or profession you hold, times have been tough for many. Although the election is over you must still Vote.

Vote for yourself! Right now! Today! Tomorrow! and Everyday!

It doesn't matter if it's an election year or not. Heck, I'm not even talking politics. And yet again I say, Vote for yourself! Everyday!
If you don't vote for yourself who will? Be your own best supporter. Whatever happens, know you did your best with what you had at that moment.
When talking about voting, I'm talking about three key things. None of which require waiting in line on a Tuesday.
(1) Attitude

Your first vote should be a vote of Attitude. Vote for yourself by choosing a positive attitude. Positive outcomes are most likely with this vote. I you think you can you are right. The other part of that popular quote doesn't matter. Make sure you, "Think you can." VOTE

(2) Education

Your second vote should be the vote of Education. Do something everyday to better yourself and your abilities. You will be more effective at what you do. You will enjoy what you do better. You will be better able to help your clients, friends and family. Equip yourself with the tools to success. Knowledge is the hammer to shatter any obstacles in your path. Vote!

(3) Activity

Your third vote should be the vote of Activity. Votes one and two are integral to your success. Once you have them you must get the body moving. Hands, arms, torso, legs, and feet, get them all in motion! Hopefully with some level of coordination. No this is not jazzercise (although I'm told that's good exercise - and fun too). This is about taking action to achieve success. Working towards whatever you consider to be your desired results. Vote!
VOTE FOR YOURSELF! now and everyday in the future.
