Technology Tracks Schoolbus Kids
« on: September 02, 2010, 04:09:18 am »
If schools want to track the children and worried about the bus being late than track the
bus not the kids.  I use to be a school bus driver and this is leading them to track
all of us soon.


Technology Tracks Schoolbus Kids

Updated 7:21 PM CDT, Wed, Sep 1, 2010


In a bid to set parents' nerves at ease, a southwest suburban school district has become one of the first in the state to begin tracking students riding buses to and from school each day with Global Positioning System and Radio Frequenty Identification technology.

  Palos Heights School District 128 had previously been using ZPass, a GPS technology provided by Seattle-based Zonar Systems, to track the buses.  But now the district is outfitting students' backpacks with a luggage tag-sized unit that logs when the student steps on and off the bus.
 
"A little piece of mind helps you get through the day," said Ann O'Brien, a mother of four children in Palos Heights School District 128. "They can locate kid and bus in seconds."

Palos School Superintendent Kathleen Casey said the system helps alleviate parents' concerns.
 
"We can track the bus with the GPS, alleviate a parent's fear if they got on or off bus, look up their ID number and find out what bus and what time boarded or if still on or exited," she said. 

The district spent $16,000 for the technology, which currently covers 10 buses. Parents say the cost is minimal for the benefits.
"As a parent, the safety of your child taking a bus is a number one concern" says Leslie Baudo.

Last year, Baudo's son was over an hour late coming home. If that happens again, Baudo can now simply call the school and get immediate information from the secure database, making the waiting game just a little bit easier.

They are tracking the buses...for now.  You are so right Lilly.

And it all makes perfect sense...in fact even though I already DO believe the Bible, doesn't it make you pause and look at it?  All there in black and white from so long ago.  What an AMAZING GOD who loves us!

Seriously, think about it...of course the enemy will use fear.  Makes it sound all good...Protecting children from kidnap, keeps your money safe-hey they won't be able to steal your identity!  And even several years ago (and they started at Christmas sales time) how convenient and fast that debit card is!!

Sad thing is so many people who do know the Bible would rather pretend nothing is happening!!

Oh but sister DO NOT let the enemy get you down!  You run to our daddy, because it is going to be amazing times at the same time.

I am absolutely 100% confident that our Lord will keep us in perfect peace regardless of how things look.  Sadly it will be hard for those who have not yet turned and accepted His love, but His power is going to be more and more clear as evil pushes harder.  And think how joyous to see all the brothers and sisters who will come to Him!!

Even if He calls any of us to die.  It will be in peace and joy and time to go HOME!!

Sometime reread all the end time prophicies (sp?) and ask Him to highlight to you the promises that are with each one for His beloved children!!

I'm not worried for myself it is others I worry for.  If someone was going to kill me because
of knowing Jesus I would be so happy for I knew I would be going home.  We are just like
our soldiers coming home so happy to be there.

There are even those that go as far as supporting this not because of the so called goodness of it, as if it is the perfact idea.  But that they support it because they feel they are helping Jesus come back sooner.  The nut jobs!
There are even some I have talked with that got ticked off that I wouldnt support, and feel we should resist till jesus comes in all things!  It is a twisted Apithy that makes they feel... it is going to happen anyways so it is a wast of time to resist.  So they play into it, go along with, and make exsusses.  The church I believe the bible says we the church is ment to be a blocking.  We are to make things so hard for Saten to have his way in anything, that it looks like nothing will get done.  G-d will have to remove us inorder to give Saten his set time.  I get up set with those that go along with this and then here is another point...you can see them compermizing in other areas as well....so it does look more and more like sin in the long run to take part in it.  No wonder why G-d tells us to come out of her and be seperate.  Because taking part in any of it makes you look more and more like them, and less and less like the one you claim to love.  I would resist it all if I was one of those parents!!!  But again, some of the parents really dont want to be a parent and wait at the bus stop for their kids, so they us our kids as a tool to get away with putting this into the sustom.  It will not end with those kids put will spread like an infaction!

Amen...remember our Lord is going to take us through the hard times....we have to endure patiently....and know he speaks truth to us all.

 Rev 13:10  If anyone is to go into captivity, into captivity he will go.  If anyone is to be killed by the sword, with the sword he will be killed..

This calls for patient endurance on 'THE PART OF THE SAINTS'.... 

So, we know we belong to the Lord and are HIS SAINTS...so let us patiently endure when the separation comes in persecutions...as Matt 24:9-10 says this is when the falling away takes place...stay the course and don't deny Jesus as our Lord because then HE won't deny any of us...we can do all things through Christ Jesus as he is our helper and Lord...who loves us.. amen.

In Christ's love
the father said he was sending the tribulation through the seed of Ishmael  and they are camped around us now.  Trust the Lord in the times of trouble that is near to all of us.   The Lord is coming.
