The Com­bined Times
Based on the idea of the CRAYON newservice,this is a frame-based com­pendi­um of main­stream news ser­vices I use.

News and Resources


Children of the Light

a.ka. the Reli­gious Soci­ety of Friends, a.ka. the Quak­ers. “Chil­dren of the Light” was an ear­ly name for the Quakes that I’m per­son­al­ly try­ing to revive.
Friends’ WWW
Quak­ers on the net!, oh my what would George Fox have said? Well, you don’t need to guess, since he’s online here (I kid you not).
Philly Young Adult Friends
See what we cool cat twen­tysome­thing Quak­ers are get­ting our­selves into.
PYM draft page
This is the longest-running draft page I’ve ever put togeth­er. Quak­er com­mit­tees can be an expe­ri­ence in them­selves, and this Philly Year­ly Meet­ing’s web com­mit­tee bare­ly has a pulse.

Philly Stuff

Indexes

Joe’s Links
City​.Net Philadelphia
Lib­er­tyNet
Lots of good Philly groups broad­cast out of LibertyNet.
Inky/Daily News
Ritz Film­bill
The two Ritz’s are the only inter­est­ing the­aters left in this town which experts agree has one of the low­est theater/capita rat­ings in the country.
Philadel­phia Fes­ti­val of World Cinema
City Paper
The local alter­na­tive week­ly’s online. Fan­cy graph­ics (too fan­cy per­haps) mark this for­ay into cyberpublishing.
SEPTA
Public-transit author­i­ty SEPTA is the leader in ambigu­ous P.R. Take their shit-tank name for starters, then add their wacky slo­gans like “SEPTA: We’re Get­ting There” or “We’re Try­ing to Do Our Best.”
Philly Weath­er
From Intel­li­cast, a great weath­er site com­plete with fore­cast, syn­op­sis and the lat­est radar images.
Philadel­phia Radar

FedEx Track­ing
UPS Home Page
Amtrak Sched­ules
This August I took the Broad­way Lim­it­ed from Chica­go. Now I read they’re going to cut the line from the sched­ule. Is this progress? This site is inde­pen­dent of Amtrak but has all the schedules.
Amtrak�s Sta­tion
The offi­cial Amtrak home­page has lots of inter­est­ing infor­ma­tion about the trains, but no schedules!
