October 247 about the possibility of an appeal to the day before's State Supreme Court ruling that the position of Chief of Police in the Freeport Police Force be reinstated. Both Mayor William H.

The village Board of Trustees holds its next meeting Monday night, October 30. • In June. 1977, the Board of Trustees in a 4-1 vote'(Trustee retaining the traditional garhagR~-« Wayne Jordan dissented) chaiig-ed the then existing internal structure of the. .village's • police departmeiit by abolishing the • position of chief of ptplice — held at the time by Anthony Elar — and setting up a three-member' - Board--of-Commissioners. whose chairman would "be t.s-"iaW';en-forcement officer." At the same time, in a separate motion, they abolished the position of captain in the department. Two captains had retired; the third.. David. Meehan. a 23-year veteran of the force, was. appointed to the S32,(XX). a year post of chairman of the Board of Commissioners. Village trustees Dorothy Storm and Tom. Lovelidge were appointed to the other two non-salaried, posts of police commissioners. Elar reverted to a lieutenant's slot with' the department. The Board explained the move. at several public hearings and meetings, as a combination of economy (consolidation of positions) and to effect a better line of communications between the trustees and the department. Elar. through his attorney Richard.Gaba of Mineola. filed an Article 78 in the courts re<^uesting a review of the muninp'altty's , action. The then Chief, who had served eight years in |hat posi- ' tion. claimed that his rights under civil service law'had been violated.. According,-to.. Caba.j the courts did| find that there was an issue of the-fact and ordered a trial which took place over three ' days in the spring of this year. ^ V Gaba explained that his client alleged that police chief is a competitve civil service position. The court, he said, ruled that by demoting Elar from chief — wheft;^ the position was abolished — the village had violated his rights. A municipality. Gaba said, could abolish a position if they show it is for economy reasons. This. .Gaba . said, they could not prove: As Chief.

Listen to the Cancer.Net Podcast: Seeking a Second Opinion, adapted from this content.
Cancer is often a confusing and frightening diagnosis, and it is hard to make decisions about possible treatment. Because treatments are continually improving, it is important to find someone with experience in treating your type of cancer. Many people consider seeking the knowledge and advice of more than one doctor. This is called a second opinion. A second opinion is helpful when a doctor suspects or diagnoses cancer, or recommends a specific treatment plan.
Asking for a second opinion is common practice. The more knowledge you have about a particular diagnosis and the treatment options available, the more comfortable you will be regarding the health care decisions you will make.
A second opinion after diagnosis
A second opinion after the diagnosis can provide a great deal of information, such as:
- Confirmation of a diagnosis
- Additional details on the type and stage of cancer
- Other treatment options, in situations where the doctor disagrees with the original diagnosis
A second opinion before treatment
Seeking a second opinion before beginning treatment can also provide a great deal of information, such as:
- More information on the type of cancer, especially if the cancer is rare and knowledge is limited about the particular cancer or treatment
- Opinions from experts and specialists (such as radiologists or surgeons) who may have treated other patients with this cancer. Find a local cancer center or cooperative group.
- Clinical trials (research studies involving people), especially if the doctor providing a second opinion is affiliated with a major cancer center
Paying for a second opinion
Most insurance providers pay for a second opinion when cancer is suspected or diagnosed. However, it's recommended that you ask about payment before seeking one. Be sure to ask if you're required to select from a specific group of doctors when seeking a second opinion. Some insurance providers even require a second opinion before they will pay for cancer treatment.
Finding a doctor for a second opinion
Let your doctor know if you wish to seek a second opinion. Most doctors fully understand the value of a second opinion and are not offended when patients seek one. They may even be able to suggest another doctor. If you need an oncologist in your area to consult for a second opinion, try searching the Find an Oncologist database, a free database of ASCO members in the United States and abroad who have made their contact information public.
In some cases, seeking a second opinion from a specialist is very helpful, as there are many different types of oncologists. Other possible sources for finding a doctor are:
- Local hospitals, medical clinics, or cancer centers
- Medical schools and medical associations, such as the American Board of Medical Specialties, the American Medical Association, and the American College of Surgeons. All offer searchable databases of doctors.
- Friends and family
- Cancer organizations and patient advocates
Once you locate a possible doctor for a second opinion, ask about the doctor's area of specialty and credentials, such as board certification, training, and experience. Make sure to bring all of your relevant medical records, including test results (including blood work and imaging tests, such as x-rays) and any related materials to the appointment. Often, the doctor providing a second opinion will request the results of any tests or procedures you have already had performed, eliminating repeat testing. Keeping track of these results may seem overwhelming. Cancer.Net has a variety of medical forms you can download to help keep all your information organized.
During the consultation, you may wish to write down the information you learn so that you can go back to it later or take another person to help you remember the discussion with the doctor. Don't be afraid to ask questions or ask the doctor to explain something in more detail. It is important that you feel confident that you've made the best decision possible with the best information possible before deciding on treatment.

Seven Drupal Hosting Considerations
Over the years, we've seen websites based on Drupal, the popular open source web content management system, hosted on nearly every possible type of hosting platform, from shared hosting plans, cloud hosting environments, virtual private servers (VPS), dedicated servers, and high-availability clustered environments.
A smart IT manager or system administrator who previously paid $50/year for a low cost shared-hosting environment for a static HTML website often needs to justify to management why the organization will need to spend more on higher-quality hosting for their new Drupal website. It's also not uncommon that this smart IT manager is not yet intimately familiar with Drupal.
I'm often asked for advice on how to select a good hosting environment for small and medium-sized Drupal websites.
Following are six criteria that you can use to evaluate Drupal hosting options.
1. Platform
The current version of Drupal (Drupal 7) is typically (although not always) run on a UNIX/Linux platform with Apache, MySQL and PHP. You'll want to make sure your hosting provider offers these minimum versions:
- Apache 1.3 or Apache 2.x hosted on UNIX/Linux, OS X
- MySQL 5.0.15 or higher
2. Ability to Configure Settings
For optimal performance, you will have to adjust some PHP settings to make Drupal happy (for example: safe_mode, memory_limit). It's important to know that your hosting provider will allow these changes to be made. You may also need one or more helpful PHP libraries (like GD library which helps with image processing) installed. Some hosts don't support PHP configuration changes or additional libraries, so find out how your host handles these types of configuration changes, and clarify if you will make these changes, or if your host will make these changes for you.
3. System Memory
Drupal typically requires at least 64MB of system memory (RAM). If your site has modest traffic and more than a few modules, or any custom modules, you'll likely want to budget for at least 512MB of system memory to run effectively. Some hosting environments constrain the amount of system RAM to which your website has access because this resource is shared by many other sites on the same server. This limit seems to be a problem most often for sites running on some shared environments when traffic starts to increase.
4. Managed Operating System
Some low cost virtual server options can be a great choice if you're willing to manage the operating system and troubleshoot when your virtual server has problems. If you prefer not to handle this sort of system administration support, you'll want to opt for a managed hosting environment, where your hosting company is responsible for keeping the operating system, Apache, MySQL and PHP up-to-date and running.
5. Filesystem Backup
You'll need an automated filesystem backup that backs up your website files, such as the files that make Drupal run, images, and other documents your users upload. A good backup system should provide an automated daily filesystem backup, keep backed-up files for at least two weeks, and enable you to restore individual files and directories. Several VPS hosting options offer only "site" backups, which may mean that your only option for recovering files is to restore your entire server instance from a previous backup. When you setup your website, you should test this backup by requesting the restoration of a file to ensure that your backup strategy actually works.
6. Database Backup
Because Drupal stores content and configurations in the database, ensuring that your database is backed up is an equally important aspect of your backup plan. Backing up a database is a slightly different process from backing up the filesystem. If you want to manage your database backup yourself, here's a great article on "10 Ways to Automatically & Manually Backup MySQL Database." If you will be working with your database manually, you may also want to be sure that you have a web interface to access your MySQL database, like the popular phpMyAdmin, a free software tool written in PHP intended to handle the administration of MySQL databases.
7. Drupal Updates
Drupal is great software. In order to keep the software operating securely and at its best, you'll need to apply core updates, security patches, and module updates. These updates are typically released monthly, but can be released less or more often. Web hosting companies don't typically won't apply these updates, so you'll need to be explicit about who, how and when these updates are applied to your website.

Thanks for outlining this clearly. This is a great set of baseline features to look for for Drupal hosting. I my experience you really need at least 1GB of shared RAM on a virtual private server for Drupal to work well. I find it's easy to keep a virtual server running RedHat updated myself using up2date. There's only been a few times when it hasn't worked.
Many hosting providers (like GoDaddy hosting) don't provide SSH access to the server. This means that you can't easily review error logs, and you can't easily deploy code patches and updates using SVN. I would add an 8th criteria to your list: SSH access to your server.
You need to add to your article customer support that knows about Drupal. If you setup your web host and the web host customer support don't know about Drupal then they say everything if your fault and they wont help you troubleshoot. Best to find a host that knows about Drupal.
Good list. I think anyone serious about Drupal hosting should get a dedicated server. Otherwise, you're going to run into all sorts of configuration problems, or problems with other sites on that server.
You will definitely need some sort of reliable SVN or Git code deployment solution as part of your hosting, especially is you have several people helping to develop your site. I like Beanstalk, a hosted SVN, but YMMV. Thanks for the good post.
Acquia offers their Acquia Managed Cloud, which may avoid some of the typical cloud-hosting problems:
I understand Pantheon (http://www.pantheon.com) will soon offer optimized Drupal hosting, but you'll need to be familiar with git/svn to use it well.
This is a really great article. It effectively summarizes the key issues in hosting Drupal.
Two cloud-based hosting options that will work ok for smaller sites include Rackspace Cloud Sites ($150/mo) http://www.rackspace.com/cloud/cloud_hosting_products/sites/ and Media Temple Grid Service ($49/mo) http://mediatemple.net/webhosting/gs/ .
Rackspace Cloud Sites has documentation on how to configure your site to run well in that environment:
Grid Service offers a potentially scary one-step installation of Drupal: http://kb.mediatemple.net/questions/1703/
However, your site running on a cloud environment like this will never be as speedy or as optimized as running it on a platform configured with memchached or varnish, technologies to help improve Drupal performance. If your site is small and serves under 2K visitors a month, this probably doesn't matter too much.
Also, with both of these cloud hosting options, expect more downtime than you'd have on a dedicated server.
Great article. Very helpful. Drupal.org has a page where they list some companies that advertise with them to provide hosting:
This is a *really* useful article.
Backup is a real problem for shared hosting or virtual hosting. The Lullabot folks posted an article on how you can use rsync, ssh, sudo, cron and a backup server to automate backups to a remote server. Granted, it's kind of technical, and you'd have to know what you were doing, but it can be an option for a savvy IT manager:

A heated discussion concerning the duties of the city's maintenance department resulted in Cumberland Mayor Carl Hatfield temporarily walking out of a council meeting on Tuesday.
Council member Carolyn Elliott inquired about some work the city reportedly was performing for the tourism board.
"Why are we cleaning out a shed for tourism?" asked Elliott. "We're paying city workers to do things like that when we've got manholes that are open that need to be worked on?"
Councilman Charles Raleigh stated the Cumberland Tourism Board had their own funds that could be used.
"I can only say that this maintenance department has done more to improve the appearance and clean up this city than has been done in years," said Hatfield.
According to Elliott, Hatfield has not been keeping track of the maintenance department properly.
"It appears to me like you're not being over this department as you should or some of these things wouldn't be being done," said Elliott.
Council member Yvonne Gilliam mentioned the area behind the high school needed to be looked at by the maintenance department because there were some items that needed to be removed.
"You could help the city a lot when you see something like that call (the maintenance department) and they'll go pick it up right then," said Hatfield.
Councilman David Dixon disagreed with this suggestion.
"Why do we need to call the maintenance department when we pay three clerks to take calls?" demanded Dixon.
Hatfield said all citizens were encouraged to call the appropriate department if they saw any work that needs to be done.
"They should be out working, who's up there to answer the phone?" asked Dixon. "That doesn't answer my question."
Hatfield said he did not have the answer to Dixon's question.
Dixon stated the job of answering the phone belonged to the city clerk.
"Supervisors shouldn't be sitting in an office all day. They need to be out watching their employees," exclaimed Dixon.
Hatfield advised that each supervisor is responsible for their own department, adding that the city had been written up in past audits for lack of segregation of duties.
"I want to see a job description for the clerks, and I want to see it right now," said Dixon.
Hatfield told Dixon he would have to go get it.
"That's not my job," exclaimed Dixon. "My job is to make laws and make sure they are being followed through with."
Hatfield then stood up from his seat and exited the building.
During Hatfield's absence, Dixon made a motion that Elliott take over as chairman for the meeting. The motion, seconded by Raleigh, was passed unanimously by the council.
Hatfield returned and the council rescinded the motion.
"I'm sorry about that, but I thought we were wasting a lot of time on aggravating things that don't amount to a hill of beans," said Hatfield.
The council then moved on to a lengthy discussion of the budget resulting in a meeting being set for a budget workshop.

Each Harry Potter 12" x 12" Kit from Creative Imaginations includes: Full Description & Details.
After an amazing trip to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter I needed supplies to make an amazing scrapbook of the trip and this is just what I needed. I ordered some supplementary stuff but I'm not really even sure I'm gonna need it, it comes with a lot of great stuff! I take Harry Potter very seriously and this is just excellent.
Scrapped the HP Universal experience. What a difference these products made. My pages had the authentic wizarding look. Stickers were thick and STICKY!! Plenty of of product in kit. I ordered extra paper and stickers, but really did not need to. Love this website!
Great stuff! This kit doesn't need any additional purchases for Harry Potter scrapbooking embellishments, except for maybe the letters and seal stamps. I love the product mailed. The 12 x12 are not double sided, which I love so I can use all the paper efficiently.
I would recommend this to any Harry Potter Fan wanting to make a scrapbook of their memories!! It is very complete and is a good price!! I can't wait to start my scrapbook!! :D
I haven't used this paper yet but it is great quality and I love all the various prints. It arrived in a timely manner and in perfect condition!

Hi Guys,
Just thought I would say hello. I am a newby to the forum having only just acquired a very beautiful A320C in need of some TLC. I have just installed a new Fishman Matrix Infinity pickup in it & given it to a luthier friend of mine to get it properly set up.
I have to say from the outset, that this is one outstanding guitar. Not only does it have a beautiful classic look about it, it is also wonderfully made. It is difficult to fathom just how the guys @ Avalon were able create such a wonderful instrument. But thankfully, they did. And now its mine.
In terms of sound, this baby has it all. It can be as quiet or loud as you wish it to be. But for me, its magic is in its projection when fingerpicked.When I pluck a string it feels as though the note is coming up from the soundhole to meet me-(If that make any sence). Wow!
I have long since been a huge James Taylor fan & oft admired the sound from his Olsen guitars. I never imagined that one day I would own a guitar that could to some degree, replicate this sound.
In all honesty, this guitar is too good for the likes of me, but just try parting me from it.
I don't quite know what it is that excites a player about a guitar.
Maybe its the guitar's instant playability or indeed its tonal qualities along with some appreciation of the skills required in hand crafting the instrument,but suffice to say that if there is such a thing as guitar heaven, I've just arrived.
In advance of buying this guitar, I read a lot about Avalon. I was struck by the fact that no one had a bad word to say about either their guitars or indeed the company itself.In fact quite the opposite was true of the reviews.People talked almost affectionately about Jim and how helpful a guy he was. I thought "I want to be part of this". And now I am.
Anyway, thanks for listening and sure drop us a line if you feel like it.

The Word Carrier OF SANTEE NORMAL TRAINING SCHOOL. VOLUME XXXV. HELPING THE RIGHT, EXPOSING THE "WRONG. NUMBER 6. SANTEE, NEBRASKA. NOVEMBER-DECEMBER, 1906 THIRTY CENTS PER YEAR. Our Platform. F0r Indians we want American Education! -. A^rlran Homes! We want American F ! We ror Indians wc wain /-miGii>_aii i_> want American Homes ! We want American Rights! The result of which is American Citizenship! And the Gospel is the power of their Salvation! Dr. Riggs' Sickness. Mauv of our friends have heard of Dr. Riggs' serious illness. He was in Chicago for ten days in November at a hospital, where he went for a slight operation for a skin disease. He started back November 16th feeling fairly well; but was delayed at Springfield by ice in the river. He was chilled there, and took a severe cold, which brought on an attack of the grippe, followed by lobular pneumonia. For about two weeks he was very sick indeed. His niece, Miss Mary Morris, who is a trained nurse, came to take care of him For a few davs it seemed as if he could not recover. The doctors in consultation thought he could not live many days, and the absent members of the familv were informed of his condition. Perhaps the most anxious day was December 13th. But that evening while the people were praying for him in the regular Thursday evening prayer-meeting, be began to seem a little easier. Two days later our hearts were cheered by the coming of his brother, Dr. Thomas L. Riggs. He was so cheerful and hopeful, so full of helpfulness and good judgement, that his presence was a great blessing to the troubled family, and to Dr. A. L. Riggs himself. Since then Dr. Riggs' has seemed to be gaining. The gain is slow as is to be expected, for he was tired out before he was sick. The doctor says he must have entire rest, therefore he sees only members of his own household for the present. There have been however a number of letters and messages of sympathy and appreciation sent by former pupils and workers, which Dr. Riggs has enjoyed. During the worst part of Dr. Riggs illness, Mrs. liiggs was in Montana, with her daughter, Mrs. Waples, who is sick with typhoid fever. When it was known that Dr. Riggs had pneumonia, every one longed to have her home. Yet it did not seem best to send for her at first. When she heard how dangerously ill Dr. Riggs was, she started at once It was a hard journey of four days. When she reached Santee, she found lie was better. But Mrs. Riggs herself was sick a few days from weariness and anxiety. Mrs. Stead, the second daughter, came home from Jacksonville, Illinois, and is still here. Mr. Stephen Riggs is on his way home from Madrid, Spain. Indian Qualities that Should be Preserved. In making the composite characterof the future American citizen characteristics of many people are to be included: English stubbornness ;Ger- man studious persistency; Scandinavian in- dustriousness; French style, suavity and politeness ; Italian pepperiness—and innumerable seasonings of the peculiar qualities of every sort of peoples. A quarter of a million Indians are to be absorbed into our nation. What qualities nave they to add to that composite man, the future American ? Good sense is one quality peculiar to Indians, —just "common sense," often called "horse sense," because so rare with humans. Indians on the whole have more good sound sense than other people. They are rarely silly. Indians are self-possessed. They"adapt themselves to surprises without showing surprises, m unaccustomed circumstances where a white fflan usually "gives himself away" and plays the fool, our Indian is perfectly self-possessed, todian parents train their children in self-con- ™}- If an Indian child makes a spurt at any- tblng the parent calls him back with the instruction: "Groslow, my son." '-Never hurry." 0 the Indian is too slow for this progressive Se- But self-possession is the valuable quality that should serve in the future composite to neutralize some of the white man's rattleheaded- ness. And the Indian slowness will be offset by the excessive Yankee hastiness. _ Indians are preeminently dignified. In public meeting, without having any elaborated parliamentary forms, they are very formal iu action i and speech. An Indian never blurts out. He always begins a public speech with apologies, j and addresses his auditors, no matter who they are, as "My relatives." And Indian dignity is I not reserved for public occasions but is the uni- j versal custom at home. A white man says to his children: "Billy, do that," "Peggy,come here." The Indian says: "My son" or "My daughter, do this," The majority of white people treat one another with no respect, address each other by their first names, young striplings calling fathers of the town "Tommy" and every other name of diminutive ending and contemptible familiarity. Not so with Indians! The Indian language has no slang words nor swear words. The language is complicated in the niceties of idioms, verbs and pronouns, and is difficult to learn. White people can very rarely learn to speak it correctly. Indians never, absolutely never, speak it incorrectly. On the other hand the majority of white people never speak their own language correctly. Indians learn to speak English incorrectly because the}' mostly learn it from the incorrect kind of white people. But Indian accuracy in their own language ought to introduce an element of accuracy into the composite race. Indians are generous. A few white people have the reputation of being "generous to a fault." All Indians are that generous. A characteristic which in this extreme form is detrimental, when combined with the natural selfishness of Anglo-America should tend to benefit the composite American. Indians care for orphans. They do not need asylums. Children that are ralated to nobody while their parents live are related to everybody when their parents die. And everybody proceeds to take care of them without any special arrangements. Everybody's house is open to an orphan and the orphan is soon adopted into a family. Indians are naturally the most religious American people, not absurdly aud fanatically religious like many Asiatics. Their good sense seems to prevent that. But Indians are thoroughly religious. Their religion is not to be put on and off according to time, place or convenience, as with white men. The Indian's every common act is a religious act. There must be prayer at every meal, also with every pipe-smoking, till there came the white man's vile fumigator! With hunting and sport and planting and harvesting there must be worship. Indians considered dancing a part of public worship, as David did. Heathen Indian worship has degenerated, but Indian religiousness is still evident in the Christian Indians. They are great people for meetings. They can stand longer meetings and enjoy more preaching than any other people! And they are generous in their contribution to Christian work. Indiaus have faith, good for injection into European American nationality. Indians do not need to be converted but instructed. They already believe but do not understand what they believe. These qualities would evidently be a good antidote to white men's persistent lack of faith and preference for reason, in which nevertheless they are blind to religious evidences.—F. B. Riggs, in Congregational Work. Indians Start Bank. Led by Col. Sol. McLisk, a rich Chickasaw Indian, a number of his tribesmen passed through Omaha on their way to the new townsite of Randlet to organize a banking trust and real estate company with a capital stock of about half a million dollars. All the stockholders are to be Indians, andthe business will be transacted by Indians. All the members of the party are well dressed and spoke good English. Col. McLisk said: "It is but a few miles from Randlet to the Chickasaw Nation boundary, and we expect to draw business from our people there. Then there is the Comanche and Kiowa business. We do not expect this to be a very big concern for a few years to come, but when these Indians have become clothed with full American citizenship and begin handling their own financial affairs, we'll be ready to assist them."—The Arrow. Returned Students in the Southwest. Ever since the Indian schools have been established people have been asking whether this education amounts to anything, whether it pays, and we hear a good deal about the returned students who are not doing anything. We would like to hear about those who are successes, and there are a good many such, young men and young women, who are living quietly at home, keeping house and conducting themselves as good citizens of this republic. On the Campo reservation and the Rincon reservation there are two families the young men of which have been to school and returned. Each has rented 500 acres of wheat land off the reservation north of Fallbrook. Last year they produced good crops and one of the young men expects to be able to buy 160 acres next year. He has already picked out the place. Nelson Gorman, a former student at Fort Defiance, is now conducting a store, the only full-blood Navaho who ever conducted a store. In the few months he has conducted it he has gained rapidly, as far as business is concerned, and he is proving himself to be a good business man. Robert Martin, a returned student from Hampton, I think, is interpreter at the north side agency, employed by Mr. Sheldon at Shiprock. Martin is getting a salary of $60 and saving $30, starting a small bank account. He wants to become a farmer, and is saving his money for that business. He is one of those upright Indians, six feet three inches tall, and stands straight up. Harry Azul, who went to school at Hampton, runs a little trading store over at Sacaton and is quite wealthy—that is, as wealth goes among the Pima—and he also has quite a herd of cattle. Several of his children are going to school at the Tucson Missiou school. Hugh Patton, formerly a day school teacher on the Pima reservation, is now owner of a trading store at Gila Crossing.—The Native American. Our Alaska Mission. The summer has been short and busy. The ice left us about the last of June. Snow was on the hillside until August and I have seen it fall every month up on the mountain. Our supplies reached us on July 17. I helped the young man who acts as interpreter build a house. Then I spent three weeks at the reindeer herd, where I had a varied experience. Most of it was wet. Arctic rains are four times as wet as water and several times as cold. The only thing that was dry and warm was our sleeping bags. Our people were nearly all gone. It was bard to get forty to meetings and then we had 96 per cent of the population of the villages. Now they are all back and we have a crowded house. In September Helen came up to me, coming from St. Paul unattended. She had the best care and attention. Since her arrival she hasbeen teaching the government school. The regular teacher has been on a trip on the Revenue Cutter Thetis as interpreter. They caught some notorious villians and he has been detained at court. It was a disappointment when I heard no one is to come this year. The work is promising and the field is inviting. James F. Cross.

Christmas in a Door County Cottage
Ice, water and sky [1]
Chuck and Lana Tencate's cottage-style home on Ellison Bay fulfills a dream started decades ago when Chuck's parents rented a cottage in Door County, Wisconsin (a peninsula that sits 170 miles northeast of Milwaukee). "I started coming here when I was 3 months old," says Chuck, a Chicago native. Those childhood vacations eventually led the Tencates to build a year-round residence here.
The winter holidays are especially magical, when the family's cove freezes over and the snow-frosted woods are quiet. With virtually every room oriented toward the waterfront, the Tencates' home captures a blue-and-white tableau of ice, water and sky.
Spacious but cozy [4]
The living room showcases the home's signature paneling as well as a coffered ceiling and a fireplace made of local stone. Much of the home's design was inspired by the local landscape, where white clapboard houses hug the waterfront. "We wanted our house to fit in with the older cottages... like something that started out small and was added to over the years," Lana says.
Previously, they had owned a log vacation home with a soaring great-room. "It looked very grand, but it really wasn't cozy," Chuck says. This time, the couple opted to forgo cathedral ceilings. Instead, they stretched the downstairs ceilings to a uniform height of 10 feet, allowing transom-topped windows to let in lakefront views and make even moderately sized rooms feel spacious and airy.
At Christmas, the painted Dala horses and red tulips on the table show the couple's Dutch-Scandinavian heritage and spirit.
A lake-cottage spirit [7]
The exterior of the Tencates' home features gables and faux "additions" that create a sense of history. Some tips for achieving a similar lake-cottage spirit:
Use windows as often as possible. Porches and walls filled with windows marry the house to its best views. When a room is "landlocked" in the center of the floor plan, install interior French doors to borrow outlooks from adjoining spaces.
Keep it cozy. Broad passages keep the floor plan open and informal, but each room is well-defined with wide door openings. Unlike a great-room, this design gives each space a sense of privacy and purpose.
Amplify light. High, transom-topped windows and doors bring extra light into a space.
Accentuate with details. Beautiful door hardware and detailed millwork enrich even small spaces with character.
Build instant character. An extra-thick wall between the Tencates' living room and dining room gives the impression that the house was added to -- and creates a feeling of age and stability.
Add texture. In this all-white house, interior texture stands in for colored walls. Paneling, wide moldings, ceiling details and wood and stone on the fireplaces all provide visual interest.
Flexible dining [10]
Beside the dining area's built-in cupboard, French doors with transoms open to the enclosed porch. As in the living room, the dining area features planked, white-on-white walls, a decor that reflects both Scandinavian aesthetics as well as cottage style. Cherry floors visually anchor the traditional furnishings and antiques. The dining area is open to the kitchen, handling casual breakfasts as easily as holiday dinners while giving the cook lake views.
Dutch-inspired decor [13]
Delft tiles accent the dining room's tumbled marble hearth and celebrate the Tencates' "Dutch side" of the family.
Cottage style in the kitchen [16]
White-painted cabinets with inset doors, classic bin pulls, "footed" toe kicks and curvy brackets bring cottage style to the kitchen.
Year-round charm [19]
Vintage-look lighting and a subway tile backsplash add to the kitchen's charm all year, though festive touches such as the hand-stitched towels hanging on the oven share a holiday message at Christmastime.
A porch for most seasons [22]
A heated fir floor keeps this porch cozy on all but the coldest days. In summer, wicker furniture replaces the hickory.
First-floor master suite [25]
The Tencates put their master suite on the first floor, setting aside the second level for their daughters and guests. "Someday we might not want to be climbing stairs," Chuck says. The master bedroom's high wainscoting varies the home's panel theme.
Holiday tradition [28]
When the Tencates' two adult daughters come home for the holidays, they're welcomed with reminders of their Dutch-Scandinavian heritage, such as these wood shoes filled with imported candy.
Soft blue and cream [31]
Simple, elegant holiday arrangements of soft blue and cream suit an everyday Nordic aesthetic.
Scandinavian straw [34]
Straw ornaments are traditional Scandinavian favorites.
Like the Tencates, many other Door County year-rounders have Scandinavian roots. The peninsula's rugged landscape appealed to the Swedes and Norwegians who settled here during the 1800s.
Enjoying the outdoors [37]
With the lake and miles of both cross-country and snowmobiling trails near their home, the Tencate family spends many winter days enjoying activities outside.
A version of this story was originally published in Midwest Living® November/December 2005.

Traffic at 21st Street and Peoria Avenue flows quite well, which may be attributed to the fact that left turns are banned for three of the four directions, and southbound motorists have a timed left-turn signal that operates briefly at the beginning of a light cycle. As recently as 1981, traffic on 21st Street had peak-hour no-left-turn signs. At that time, the no-left-turn signs became effective for all hours on 21st Street (while retaining the ban for northbound traffic on Peoria Avenue), which prevents motorists from turning left onto any major street between Lewis Avenue and Riverside Drive, a distance of about two miles. The 21st Street inconvenience was relieved, to an extent, in 1982 following completion of a widening project at 21st Street and Utica Avenue that added left-turn lanes and removed the no-left-turn signs at that location. No improvements are planned at this intersection. The intersection is four lanes on each approach, with westbound traffic having a right-turn lane. There is a pedestrian signal for the north-south sidewalk on Peoria Avenue's east side. The intersection has homes on two corners, an apartment complex on the northeast corner and Woodward Park/Tulsa Rose Garden on the southeast corner. Photo taken April 1985.

Rob Drabkin Lays Down A New Tune On His Way Through On Tour
Rob Drabkin is a native of Denver, CO. His Mom had him take piano lessons at 5. That only lasted for a few months. At 11, Rob got lucky and scored an electric guitar from his parents. He and his older sister would sneak Metallica and Guns N' Roses cassettes into the house. They loved listening to this forbidden music and Rob learned all of the guitar parts on both cassettes note for note. Soon after, Rob found himself playing Rhythm Guitar in Jazz Band in middle school. Learning a tune like "Giant Steps" by John Coltrane was a lot different than playing Heavy Metal anthems "Welcome to The Jungle" and "Enter Sandman." Rob loved what he was hearing though and stuck with it. Now he says, "I started to really love Jazz and especially playing with a horn section."
For being relatively new to the music scene, Rob has assembled a truly impressive roster of musicians including: Jazz virtuoso Bijoux Barbosa on Bass (played and recorded with Herbie Mann and Dave Grusin) Brian McRae, (played and toured with The Bodeans and The Freddy Jones Band) Eric Moon on keyboards (toured with Bjork and recorded with Victor Wooten) and Mackenzie Roberts, who played Viola with Rob before achieving huge success with The Flobots. Mackenzie also introduced Rob to The Denver Children's Home where he volunteers his time twice a month to help abused and troubled teens learn to write songs. Rob explains, "The kids here love hip hop and rap and can freestyle really well. I'm constantly impressed by how they take the chaos they've endured and turn it into a way to express themselves." Working with the kids has also made Rob appreciate his own family that much more. He talks about working with his father on one of the tracks on "On These Heavy Feet." "Lullaby" is an instrumental collaboration that my Dad and I did. It really highlights his Sax playing. Being able to play some live shows with my Dad is incredible. The way he plays and his tone are simply unforgettable. There is a certain quality that just sings through his horn and not many sax players have that."
Rob has achieved some big wins in his career so far. He was voted Colorado's Best Singer/Songwriter by Westword Magazine 2008- 2010. He gathered enough votes to earn his turn on stage at The Mile High Music Festival with artists like The Fray, Widespread Panic, Tool, and Ben Harper. He played a Sold Out show at The Fox Theater opening for The John Butler Trio. Hes done short tours with Carbon Leaf and Tea Leaf Green and a national tour with Davy Knowles and Back Door Slam. Rob recalls how Davy invited him to join the tour. Davy said, "Rob, why don't you save yourself the gas money and just come on the bus with us for the month?" We traveled the country, played some incredible places like Higher Ground and The Bowery Ballroom. It was a phenomenal experience and I cant wait to get on the road again."
Rob also got a huge kick playing at Film on Red Rocks at the legendary Red Rocks amphitheater. He laughs, "Not a lot of people get to play their own music at Red Rocks Amphitheatre and we got to play to a sold out crowd before they showed The Big Lebowski which was nothing short of a dream come true. It was really cool because I grew up in Colorado and got to see so many of my favorite musicians play there."
"I'm having a great time making music and I just want to inspire others to go after what will truly make them happy. That's why I grew my hair a bit crazy. I just wanted to let loose, get expressive, create some nice grooves and get people to move."
Rob came through Faultline to record with Starita on his way back from playing the House of Blues in San Diego and Cafe Du Nord in San Francisco. Everybody had a blast laying down acoustic tracks while spitting banter about. Rob is a truly talented artist and we are happy to have him in the Faultline Family! Be sure to check out his website for music and tour dates.

KIAWAH ISLAND, S.C. — William McGirt is making a name for himself on the PGA Tour — but he prefers that it not be "Dirt."
The Fairmont native, fresh off back-to-back top-5 finishes that added about $568,000 to his bank account and assured his place on the PGA Tour during 2013, doesn't much like the moniker that Charlie Rymer, an analyst and personality on The Golf Channel, tagged him with.
"I despise it," said McGirt, a sentiment he shared with Rymer through a text message.
He prefers William, the name father Curtis McGirt and mother Anne gave him when he was born on June 21, 1979.
McGirt would embrace another name — PGA Tour winner, and he thinks that time is just around the dogleg. The balance in his game was demonstrated during the True South Classic, where he led the field in greens in regulation, and the RBC Canadian Open, where he led the field in putting.
"I think it shows me No. 1 that things are starting to come together, and the work is paying off," said McGirt, now the 200th ranked player in the world. "It shows me that I can compete out here on regular basis and I can win on this tour."
That almost happened in Canada, when McGirt led the tournament by 2 strokes with four holes to go. But a 3-putt bogey on No. 15 and a wayward second shot on No. 18 meant victory would have to come another day. McGirt is sure that the experience will be a 15th club in the bag next time his name sits atop the leaderboard.
"The first three holes I was pretty jittery," said McGirt, whose final-round scoring average of 70.00 ranks him 15th best on the tour. "But once I birdied No. 3, honest to goodness, it was almost scary, when the putt went it, the nerves went away."
Although he had a 2-stroke lead heading to No. 15, McGirt didn't know it.
"I never looked at the leaderboard all day on Sunday," he said. "I told my caddy, you let me know if we need to stomp on the gas or ease off it."
But as McGirt teed off on No. 18, that plan fell apart.
"Someone in the gallery yelled 'birdie win, par ties, come on McGirt,'" he said.
There was plenty of consolation in the tie for second place — the $457,000 that elevates his status for 2013, making him eligible for some limited-field events, including the tour's "fifth major," the Players Championship, FedEx points that qualify him not only for the playoffs, but at 63rd on the list, positions him for a deep run, and other perks, including a badly needed week off.
"I can set my schedule now and don't have to worry about a reshuffle," said McGirt, who has won $986,000 this year, placing him 70th on the money list, and almost $1.52 million during his two-year career.
He will also get preferred tee times, and play with more established players, beginning at the Wyndham Classic in Greensboro that begins on Aug. 16.
"I will be playing with different people," he said. "That's a good thing. I have noticed when I play with top-50 players I tend to elevate my game."
McGirt rejects the notion that his play of late — 34 under par for his last eight rounds — was lightning in a bottle, saying he had been within inches of higher finishes and bigger paydays all year long.
"It's not like I went to Mississippi and someone switched a switch on," said McGirt, whose nine missed cuts this year are by a total of 13 strokes. "The difference was the putts started catching the lips and going in."
Another difference is McGirt won't have to fight for his playing rights for a second straight year, and on Thursday his career takes a major step, when he tees off in the PGA Championship, one of golf's elite events, along with the Masters, U.S. Open and British Open. He had missed making the PGA field by a mere $11, but was first alternate, and when Keegan Bradley, the defending PGA champion, won the Bridgestone Invitational on Sunday, the door opened for McGirt.
But he was already preparing.
While being interviewed for this story on Thursday, he and wife Sarah were driving from his Boiling Springs, S.C., home to Kiawah Island, where he spent his weekend off getting in work on the Ocean Course, introduced to the world during the 1991 Ryder Cup as being a penal venue. The first three times he played the course this past week, the wind came from different directions.
Before that, he had played the Ocean Course just once, as a freshman at Wofford College, but in some ways it will feel like home. He is an honorary member of the club, and his longtime coach, Danny Stewart, is head pro at the Country Club of South Carolina at nearby Charleston. McGirt expects there will be plenty of familiar faces in the gallery.
"I can't think of a better place other than Pinehurst for to play my first major," said McGirt, who tees off on No. 1 at 2:30 p.m. on Thursday and on No. 10 at 9:20 a.m. on Friday. "I am very excited. It will be close to home, and a ton of people there that I know."
While his life on the course has changed for the better, so will his life at home. He and Sarah are expecting their first child in January. Although Sarah has been his Girl Friday on the tour, taking care of all the other things while he tends to his golf game, McGirt believes being a father will just make him a better player.
"We are both excited …," he said. "It should be good for me on the course, make me focus more and spend better time practicing as I am going to be eager to get home to spend time with her and the baby."
