Back to the future
Riverfront project expected to serve as national model for reversing sprawl
Ask a social scientist about the roots of sprawl, and he's likely to point to the 1950s economic boom, the rise of interstate highways and our American love affair with the automobile.
Ask William Abeloff, and he'll point to 1606 and the London founding of the Virginia Company.
In a narration rich with historical detail and quotes from 17th century documents, the recent speaker at a meeting of the Western Henrico Rotary Club drew frequent parallels between modern suburban developers and London investors of centuries ago – from their identical urges to develop "far-off, underutilized real estate" to their intense focus on the bottom line.
"[The Virginia Company venture] wasn't a venture into the unknown, or based on some romanticized ideal to develop the New World," Abeloff told the group. "It was based on economics and the opportunity to create new sources of revenues."
Reaching the falls of the James River a mere four days after the Jamestown landing, Captain Christopher Newport encountered a site that appeared made to order for his backers at the Virginia Company, who had instructed him to "find out a safe port in the entrance of some navigable river...and such a place you may perchance find a hundred miles from the river's mouth, and the further up the better."
The settlements that were soon to line the James in Richmond and Henrico, said Abeloff, can be viewed as examples of "the ultimate sprawl from downtown London."
And just as Henrico played a key role in the growth of that four-centuries-old venture into a new nation, it appears that the county will soon join another trailblazing effort – one that could set a precedent for the rest of the nation in reversing the sprawl so devastating to modern cities.
Abeloff, who converted tobacco warehouses into loft apartments to form the largest historical rehabilitation project in the United States (Richmond's Tobacco Row), has his eye now on a mile-long piece of riverfront straddling the city/county line at Rocketts Landing.
The run-down industrial district near the convergence of the Osborne Turnpike and Williamsburg Road, named for a ferry operated by Robert Rockett in 1730, was once the busiest port in the Western Hemisphere. But decades of neglect have left the once-bustling neighborhood languishing, said Abeloff, "like a piece of tarnished jewelry, practically right under our eyes.
"That industrial development has had the effect of cutting us off from that part of the river – with its large buildings and chain link fences blocking access," he added. "That's why if you haven't cruised on the Annabel Lee riverboat or driven down Route 5, chances are you have never seen Rocketts and don't even know where it is."
What's more, said Abeloff, "It's about one mile of choice riverfront property within walking distance of Tobacco Row, Church Hill, Shockoe Bottom, Shockoe Slip and even downtown that today pays the grand total of $50,000 a year in property taxes to Richmond and Henrico."
Abeloff's plan calls for private investment of $250 million to develop almost 50 acres into commercial offices and residential units, a green waterfront park and promenade, retail space, restaurants, hotel and boat dock – "all with absolutely spectacular views of the James River and downtown Richmond's skyline."
Investors in the project include such prominent Richmonders as James E. Ukrop, E. Claiborne Robins, Jr., and Circuit City chairman Richard L. Sharp; among Henrico supporters of the plan, Abeloff numbers county manager Virgil Hazelett (a member of the Rotary group who voiced his enthusiasm for the project at the meeting) and members of the Board of Supervisors. In August, the Board voted unanimously to adopt a new mixed-use zoning classification that will pave the way for the Henrico portion of the project, which is slated for the first phase of development.
Another of Abeloff's prominent allies is Virginia Secretary of Natural Resources Tayloe Murphy, a long-time conservationist who has hailed the project as a "crucial component of the emerging economic vitality of the City of Richmond...[and] a unique opportunity to address environmental, historic preservation and land development issues all at once."
As Abeloff noted, environmentalists find it easy to embrace the Rocketts project because it promises to enhance the environment as it boosts the tax base – unlike typical developments, which reap #their economic rewards at the expense of negative environmental effects. Foremost among the economic benefits of Rocketts Landing, said Abeloff, will be an estimated annual tax yield of $6 million for city and county treasuries.
By the end of October, Virginia's Department of Environmental Quality is expected to approve a plan of remediation for the project that Abeloff expects will become a model for brownfield development across the country.
"By re-using land so close to our downtown," he emphasized, "[Rocketts Landing] represents an anti-sprawl project reflecting the best aspects of smart growth. It represents brownfield redevelopment at its best – the antidote to sprawl."
On May 24, 2007 – 10 days after the celebration of Jamestown's quadricentennial – Richmond will mark the 400th anniversary of Christopher Newport's sail into the harbor. Abeloff hopes by then to have a riverfront village that will not only draw the locals to "live, work, shop and play," but will pull Jamestown tourists up Route 5 and I-64 to see what Richmond has to offer.
A self-described "recovering lawyer," Abeloff told the Rotary gathering at the Westwood Club that he grew up nearby in a red brick house at Club Lane and Libbie Avenue.
Perhaps the old golf course he had for a playground, or the horseback rides he took to Short Pump and back, Abeloff said, contributed to his interest in the environment and preservation. At any rate, he reflected, he and his fellow investors believe they have more at stake in the project than a simple return on investment.
"As I hope you can tell," Abeloff concluded, "we at Rocketts Landing are out to create something for Richmond that goes beyond a simple real estate development. We're trying to reclaim and re-use some of the most important, vibrant, historic property around.
"Most of us," he said, "see this as an opportunity to do something great for the place we love – our hometown."

Call Tracking Reports
Using ResponseTap's call tracking service you can finally collect accurate data that links your online and offline customer behavior at the most granular level, but collecting the data is only half the solution.
Our easy to read, near real-time reports allow you to analyze the data quickly and efficiently, thus enabling you to react quickly to trends and fluctuations in your market. You can concentrate your marketing spend on only the areas that are producing proven results.
The dashboard provides a snapshot of phone call and visitor data to help you quickly and easily identify trends. It will give you a snapshot view of the performance of your marketing.
You can also use these reports to review your call handling and see your performance over time, so you can quickly determine whether your marketing decisions are having a positive impact or not.
Caller Locations
ResponseTap is usually able to identify which locations your phone calls are coming from based on the SDT code, not IP address, so you can examine which areas are proving to be most lucrative for your business.
You may find a number of surprises in the results and you can use this information to better plan future campaigns to target high response areas. Similarly if you are targeting specific areas, you can quickly identify any 'leakage' from the campaign and react accordingly. It also enables you to create regional, targeted offers based on demand both online and offline.
Visitor History
This report shows you how each visitor is interacting with your business both via your website and over the phone over time, including how they find your website, what keywords they use and what web pages they look at before during and after they call your business.
You can see how often they return, providing an insight into customer behavior. You can also see the conversion page that the caller was looking at when they picked up the phone to call you. This insight enables you to identify your top performing pages so you can focus on improving your conversion rate by making improvements to the visitor journey.
Call Log
The call log provides you with an individual record of every call. This includes campaign and traffic source information, what search phrase they used and whether the call resulted in a lead or a sale, including the sale value.
You will also see the time and date of the call and the duration, so you can examine how the call was handled within your business. From here you can listen to a call recording of the actual conversation that took place, which can be used for staff training or simply for confirming the outcome of the call.
Keyword Report
Find out exactly which search phrases generate phone calls to your business. ResponseTap reports on every keyword and search phrase automatically, including long tail and misspellings, so you do not have to waste time setting up which keywords you would like to track.
This report details each keyword that has produced at least one phone call into your business during the reporting period, showing you the number of unique, repeat and withheld calls for each. In many cases search phrases which are thought to be low converting and ineffective are proven to produce good results through offline telephone sales.
Visit Information
You are able to further determine why visitors behave the way they do by using their visit information to understand how their browser, operating system, location or even screen size is affecting their online experience.
This report includes; IP address, browser, operating system, location (based on IP address), screen resolution, color settings and other system settings.

Conversion Attribution Report
This report allows you to see the aggregated count of campaigns which contribute towards each phone call conversion, so you can see how each piece of marketing contributes to your overall marketing performance.
This allows you to identify which traffic sources are most frequently involved in driving telephone calls, and therefore which are most important in your marketing mix.
Conversion Pages Report

This provides crucial insight about how people are using your website, giving you valuable information about what content is driving conversions so you can optimize your website content and layout for better results.

Chevron, ExxonMobil, and Royal Dutch Shell will finalize agreement next week on development of an enormous Australian natural gas field, the Wall Street Journal and the Financial Times reported today, The Gorgon field is thought to contain on the order of 40 billion cubic feet of natural gas, the equivalent of 6.7 billion barrels of oil, and will cost in excess of $40 billion to exploit. Together with about a dozen other major gas projects in Australia, Gorgon may soon make the country the world's leading exporter of LNG—and its exports will help a number of major Asian economies somewhat lesson their dependence on dirty, carbon-intense coal. According to Chevron, leader of the Gorgon project, long-term contracts already have been secured with customers in China, Japan, South Korea, and India, and more such contracts are in the works.

Sunday, December 29, 2013 at Soldier Field (Chicago, IL) Packers 33, Bears 28 In one of many week 17 win or go home games, the return of Aaron Rogers proved to be the solidifying factor to keep Green Bay in the running for the Lombardi Trophy. Trailing the Bears 28-27, Aaron Rogers started their final drive of the game inside their own 20 at just over six minutes left in regulation. After three 4th down conversions and an 86 yard drive Rogers would find Randle Cobb wide open for the go ahead touchdown giving Chicago only 38 seconds to over come the 33-28 lead.
Monday, November 4, 2013 at Lambeau Field (Green Bay, WI) Bears 27, Packers 20 After leaving the game on the first drive, Aaron Rogers watched the majority of this game in sweats from the sideline as back up Seneca Wallace took over the huddle. While it was a similar story for the Bears with Cutler injured and listed as inactive prior to kickoff, Josh McCown looked like he'd been the starter all along. The 11 year veteran lead the Bears to 27-20 win at Lambeau with 272 yards and two touchdowns to each of his massive ends, Brandon Marshall & Alshon Jeffery. Matt Forte held down the backfield toting the rock for 125 yards and a touchdown on 24 carries.
Sunday, December 16, 2012 at Soldier Field (Chicago, IL) Packers 21, Bears 13 Aaron Rodgers played an error-free game, leading the Packers to a win with three touchdown passes to James Jones in a span of less than eight minutes. The Bears couldn't muster anything on offense after a Brandon Marshall touchdown, and Matt Forte could only get 69 yards on the ground on 20 carries. The win put the Packers at 10-4 while the Bears dropped to 8-6.
Thursday, September 13, 2012 at Lambeau Field (Green Bay, WI) Packers 23, Bears 10 A bit of trickery got the Packers out in front in the second quarter, as Tom Crabtree caught a pass on a fake field goal to the house from 28 yard out to give Green Bay the 10-0 lead. The Packers and Bears traded field goals back and forth in the second half before Aaron Rodgers was able to find Donald Driver for a 26-yard TD in the fourth quarter to go up 23-3. The result put both teams at 1-1 after Week 2.
Both times I purchased from TicketCity I liked the seats. I will continue to buy from TicketCity.Makoto - Tokyo, Japan

May 2012 Trustee Meeting Summary
May 23, 2012 | 2 a.m.
The Bethel University Board of Trustees met on May 9 and 10 for its spring meeting. Below are some of the highlights of the meeting.
Major Reports
Seminary Trustee Task Force
The Seminary Trustee Task Force delivered its final report on seminary operations and future direction. The task force was established by the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees at its June 2011 meeting. Task force members interviewed stakeholders and constituents, sought consultation from peers at other seminaries, and made recommendations regarding four topics.
- The seminary is a core component of the mission of Bethel University, although seminary education in North America is operating in a financially difficult time, Therefore, the task force recommends continued strategic investment in the seminary.
- The seminary and university leadership commit to articulate an explicit vision for the seminary as serving the church and responsive to the needs of the church for leaders.
- The university leadership commits to strengthen and improve the relationship between faculty and staff serving the seminary and the rest of the university.
- The trustees commit to establish a Seminary advisory committee that will involve trustees, the president, the provost, and the Seminary VP/Dean.
- The task force identified an initial framework for a financial model for seminary operations that focuses on the direct revenue and expenses that are controllable by the seminary.
In the weeks ahead there will be multiple opportunities for faculty, staff, and students to discuss the findings of this extensive report. Joint faculty and administrative task groups will be formed to work through the recommendations and prepare for the fall trustee update.
Read the full report from the Seminary Trustee Task Force (pdf).
Reconciliation Task Force

Secure home takes planning
the time it takes you to read this sentence, one burglary
will be committed in the United States, according to crime
reports compiled by the Federal Bureau of Investigation
(FBI). One out of six homes will be burglarized this year
with an average loss of $1,280.
Research tells us that most burglars will work no longer then 60 seconds to get into a home. The statistics can be frightening, but there are many easy improvements homeowners can make to help prevent break-ins.
The majority of home and apartment burglaries occur during the daytime when most people are away at work or school. The easiest precaution you can take is to purchase quality locks for all your entryway doors, and use them. In almost half of all residential burglaries, thieves enter through unlocked doors, open garages or unlocked windows.
Your entry doors should be constructed of solid one-and-one-half-inch-thick hardwood, or metal-clad, for maximum strength and resistance to damage. For added security, install a peephole or wide-angle viewer, and make sure your doors have strong hinges with non-removable or hidden pins.
Working in conjunction with keyed knobs or levers, deadbolts can withstand the twisting, prying and pounding that ordinary door locks cant. Lowes recommends that homeowners install deadbolts on every entryway door, including the door linking your house and garage, as well as doors opening onto second-floor patios or decks. Always use high quality Grade-1 or Grade-2 locks on exterior doors to withstand lock picking.
Dont forget that sliding glass doors can be an easy point of entry. To improve security on existing sliding doors, install keyed locking devices that secure the doors to the frame or track. Adjust the track clearances on the doors so they cant be pushed out of their tracks, and place a strong metal or wooden bar along the track to prevent the doors from being opened.
Consider replacing older doors with more energy-efficient, secure models.
According to many crime prevention officers, about nine out of ten burglars will choose not to enter a building that is well lit. Lighting is one of the best, and most cost-effective, deterrents to burglary. Lowes recommends that homeowners install lighting that illuminates darker areas such as backyards and windows, porches, garage doors, shrubbery, walkways and entrancesand dont forget to install timers or photocells as well. Floodlights are recommended for superior illumination.
For added safety, trim shrubs, trees or bushes that might conceal criminal activity near entrances. Also, light areas of dense shrubbery and other dark corners where thieves could hide. Make sure you place some lights out of reach so the bulbs cannot be removed or broken, and aim floodlights away from the house so you can see if anybody is approaching.
In the event that a thief breaks into your home, be prepared to report stolen items to law enforcement and insurance companies. Take time to identify valuables by creating a household inventory, then photograph items and record their serial numbers. You can also videotape the information as you describe the items. Photocopy the contents of your wallet and other important financial and legal documents. For added peace of mind, store a copy of this information with a relative or friend.
Its also essential to get to know your neighbors so they will keep an eye on your house and you on theirs. During the summer travel season, be sure to ask a trusted neighbor to pick up your mail and newspapers every day while you are on vacation, or have them held for your return. Ask a neighbor to use your garbage cans to create the impression that your home is occupied, and make plans to keep your lawn maintained. Remember, the neighborhood that looks cared for, and where people know and are concerned for each other, is less prone to crime. . .

Writing Across the Curriculum >
Frequently Asked Questions
The Writing Across the Curriculum Program was shaped during eighteen months of deliberation by a Faculty Task Force (1998-2000), and was unanimously approved as a graduation requirement by the LIU Post faculty in February 2000. The first Writing Intensive courses were offered during the Spring 2001 semester.
The Writing Across the Curriculum Program was created in response to the understanding that faculty members in each discipline have the expertise to teach writing in their own disciplines and that students learn academic writing best when they learn it in the context of a discipline community. The mission of the Writing Across the Curriculum Program is threefold. First, it hopes to shape students into strong writers by allowing them to develop over the full span of their careers at LIU Post, in every discipline and every department, the critical reading, thinking, and writing skills associated with the interrelated processes of understanding and communicating. Second, the program aims to foster the students' grasp of a variety of writing purposes and strategies, as well as their control of the disciplinary conventions in a number of areas. Finally, the program seeks to expose students to the kinds of texts and the kinds of writing they will encounter once they graduate and begin to work actively in their fields.
The Writing Across the Curriculum Program is administered by the Campus Committee on Student Writing—a group of faculty members drawn from every School at LIU Post.
Students entering Post as freshmen must take a total of five Writing Intensive courses for graduation. The two-course First Year Writing sequence (ENG 1 and ENG 2) "counts" toward the Writing Intensive requirement; generally, students should plan to take one Writing Intensive course during each of their subsequent three years on campus.
Transfer students take one Writing Intensive course for each year of residence: transfer students entering as freshmen or sophomores (59 credits or fewer) take three Writing Intensive courses; transfer students entering as juniors (60 to 89 credits) take two Writing Intensive courses; transfer students entering as seniors (90 credits or more) take one Writing Intensive course.
Beginning with Fall 2005, students who take additional WAC courses may be able to earn a Certificate of Achievement in Writing Intensive Studies. In order to receive the Certificate, students must take an additional three writing intensive courses besides the required five for a total of eight courses. Students must achieve a minimum GPA of 3.6 in their WAC courses. The student who earns this award will receive a certificate as well as an official designation on the student's transcripts.
According to the Campus Committee on Student Writing, a Writing Intensive course is a course in which the instructor assigns between 25 to 30 pages of writing, based on the premise that students learn more about a subject by writing about it. At least 15 pages of this writing is informal writing, such as journal entries, in-class responses to questions or discussions, field notes, etc., which may not be graded, and 10-15 pages of this writing is formal, graded writing.
Since another of the program's premises is that revision—especially in response to a reader's comments and suggestions—is a fundamental component of the writing process, 10-15 pages of the writing in a WI class should be revised under the instructor's direction. This writing should be spaced appropriately over the semester; it should be assigned early enough in the term for the instructor to provide feedback and for the student to craft revisions that are substantially better than drafts.
Courses are designated as Writing Intensive only by the approval of the Campus Committee on Student Writing.
To have a course designated as Writing Intensive, the instructor must complete and submit a "Writing Intensive Designation New Course Proposal Form." These forms can be downloaded from the WAC Web site by clicking here.
Hard copies of the forms can also be obtained from Wendy Ryden, Coordinator of the Writing Across the Curriculum Program (firstname.lastname@example.com). Wendy Ryden's English Department telephone number is 516-299-2965.
In addition, all instructors teaching writing intensive courses must take one WAC training workshop (see below).
Absolutely. But, in this case, each instructor teaching the course must also submit his or her own course proposal to the Campus Committee on Student Writing for approval. The proposal covers all sections of this course taught by this instructor in the semester for which Writing Intensive application is made and, assuming there are no changes in the Writing Intensive aspect of the course, in the future.
This matter is especially important for those departments with a large number of transfer students—students who don't have the chance to complete core and other requirements at LIU Post. The Campus Committee on Student Writing recommends that every department designate at least two courses required for the major as Writing Intensive, and then offer every section of those two required courses in the Writing Intensive format.
The School of Professional Accountancy, for example, has approached the matter from this perspective with great success. The School of Professional Accountancy requires ACC 85 (Advanced Taxation) and ACC 90 (Applications in Accounting) for every major. For the last two years, the School of Professional Accountancy has offered every section of these two courses in Writing Intensive format, thus assuring that every student in the major—whether a transfer student or a student with four years' residence on campus—meets the WAC requirement.
Writing Intensive courses may be offered by both full-time and adjunct faculty members, as long as they have taken the WAC training workshop.
The Writing Across the Curriculum Program offers two training workshops every semester for all faculty at the beginning of each semester, and also special departmental workshops by request. The training workshop is usually three and half hours; during the workshop, teachers learn various techniques for incorporating writing into their classes, as well as advice on how to grade papers quickly and effectively. Teachers also receive a copy of John Bean's Engaging Ideas: The Professor's Guide to Integrating Writing, Critical Thinking, and Active Learning in the Classroom. This book is packed with useful ideas for writing assignments and grading techniques in every discipline.
The Writing Across the Curriculum Program also offers additional faculty development on a periodic basis for WAC "veterans." These informal discussions bring WAC instructors together so they can share common concerns; they also offer advice on topics ranging from incorporating informal writing into class sessions to strategies for responding to student writing.
The Writing Center is another principal source of support for WAC instructors and students. Located in Humanities 202. The Writing Center provides tutorial assistance in a range of ways including the services of trained graduate and undergraduate writing assistants.
Many faculty members are concerned that incorporating writing into their course work will take away much-needed time from the coverage of their course material; and they are also concerned about spending additional time reading and correcting students' writing. Using informal "writing to learn" methods in the classroom changes the nature of, but does not subtract from, total instructional time (Bean's Engaging Ideas includes many and varied ways of doing this). By asking students to take responsibility for their own learning, writing assignments completed outside of class can actually add to the amount of time students spend on the course. As for faculty time, assignments can be designed in such a way as to make reading and responding to them part of the course preparation that is being done in any case. Those assignments which are part of the 10-15 pages of revised writing required for a WI course do, indeed, need the instructor's close attention; but methods can be devised to expedite the response to (and, if it is a graded assignment, evaluation of) the unrevised writing which is also an important part of the WI course experience. At the WAC workshops the WAC Coordinator (and faculty who have previously taught WI courses) discuss methods that work well and are also time-efficient.
Further questions can be answered by Wendy Ryden, the Coordinator of the Writing Across the Curriculum Program (email@example.com; 299-2965), by Richard McNabb (firstname.lastname@example.com), Chair of the Campus Committee on Student Writing, or by Belinda Kremer (firstname.lastname@example.com; 299-3723), Director of the First Year Writing Program and the Writing Center.

We rarely hear about Vauxhall at this time but when we do hear about them, they sure know how to get noticed.
Opel 's sister manufacturer will be hosting the Vauxhall Ice Skate event in London on January 28 and they're bringing with them a gigantic snow globe that comes with at least 50 bags of artificial snow and a real Vauxhall Astra inside.
The snow globe, which is enormous by any stretch of the imagination, measures around 16 feet in diameter and is just one of the many attractions Vauxhall is bringing to their annual ice skating disco event.
Apart from the giant snow glove, the British carmakers are also scheduled to display their very own Gingerbread car and Corsa -inspired karaoke machine, which they appropriately dubbed as the 'Car-aoke Corsa'.
There's no telling what other kooky creations Vauxhall has in store for the ice skating event but judging from what they've already shown with the giant snow globe, we're thinking that they may have a few more surprises under their sleeves.

What I think. I could be wrong.
God hates visionary dreaming; it makes the dreamer proud and pretentious. The man who fashions a visionary ideal of community demands that it be realized by God, by others, and by himself. He enters the community of Christians with his demands, sets up his own law, and judges the brethren and God Himself accordingly. He stands adamant, a living reproach to all others in the circle of brethren. He acts as if he is the creator of Christian community, as if his dream binds men together. When things do not go his way, he calls the effort a failure. When his ideal picture is destroyed, he sees the community going to smash. So he becomes, first an accuser of his brethren, then an accuser of God, and finally the despairing accuser of himself…The person who loves their dream of community will destroy community, but the person who loves those around them will create community.

The Wall Street Journal has a classic tale bureaucratic knuckle-headedness in its Thursday edition, as it recounts the ordeal of Eustace Conway, a man who runs a commune that teaches people how to live off the land without the benefit of modern conveniences. State regulators are now telling him he can only do this if he uses modern conveniences at his commune. Otherwise, it won't be up to code:
Mr. Conway, 51 years old, is best known as "The Last American Man," the title character of a 2002 biography and National Book Award finalist by Elizabeth Gilbert, the author of "Eat, Pray, Love." He has lived in the wilderness since the early 1980s.
He traps, shoots and grows much of his own food, makes pants out of buckskin and stitches his own wounds. He bathes in the cold creek that rolls through his 1,000-acre Turtle Island preserve in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina. And he teaches others how to live off the land.
But now, Mr. Conway is devoting most of his time to the type of meetings, red tape and compromises he went to the woods to avoid.
Last fall, a team of health, construction and fire officials showed up for an unannounced inspection of the preserve, acting on an anonymous tip. Escorted by two sheriffs' deputies, they executed what Mr. Conway describes as a "SWAT-team raid"—peering into outhouses, stomping around log cabins, and climbing hand-hewn ladders.
Their findings are compiled in a 78-page report with a bullet-point list of violations. Mr. Conway's sawdust urinal and outhouses? Unpermitted, according to the officials. The wood he used to erect two dozen buildings? Built with lumber that isn't "grade-marked," meaning it doesn't specify the mill where it was produced.
The open-air kitchen, with its crates of potatoes and stacks of pots? "Not protected from insects and animals," according to the report. "It is, in fact, outdoors."
The health department has shut down Turtle Island (which isn't an actual island) to outsiders who flock to Mr. Conway for lessons on how to rough it. He says on his website he teaches people how to "break rocks to make stone tools, bend bark to fashion baskets, and spin sticks to create fire," as well as "wash the dust off by standing in the rain, watching the deer come closer, listening to the wren's call."
Visitors include scouts, school groups and interns who stay for 14 months. Costs range from $65 for a two-hour, horse-drawn carriage tour with Mr. Conway to $1,400 for a two-week camp for teens. Turtle Island operates as a not-for-profit educational organization. Mr. Conway has run programs there for more than 20 years.
The county says Mr. Conway must rebuild or tear down his cabins, barn, kitchen, blacksmith shop and sawmill, and create a septic system before hosting any more classes and camps.
"These buildings aren't fit for public use," says Joseph A. Furman, county planning director.
Mr. Conway says primitive facilities are precisely the point.
"Modern inspectors know how to measure a board, but not how to build a building," he says as he tours one of the structures deemed fit for condemnation. The lumber's not stamped with a grade because he produced it himself at his own sawmill, from trees felled nearby, he says.
He likens his construction techniques—such as interlocking corner notches and cantilevered roofs—to those of frontiersman Daniel Boone, namesake of the county seat.

Cloaque: The Endless Digital Dumpster Dive
All Tumblrs have a visual theme when encountered outside the Dashboard, whether it's a custom theme or the plain ol' comforting blue default. For most, a theme is an aesthetic or functional choice of self-expression, designed to best deliver whatever creations or curations the blogger desires. For a growing number of multidisciplinary creators, the theme is the creation. A good example is Cloaque, a self-described "digital landfill" that takes the form of endless collage of imagery, animation, video, or anything else the rotating cast of participants imagines. We spoke with cofounder Carlos Saez about how Cloaque came to be and why it will never ever stop.

This box is so nice! I was amazed to find it at this price. I have seen it cost more than *** from other stores. Like others have said, the shipping box is filed with glitter so be careful when you open it. The top is secure enough that no one would easily be able to take out off. I put a few starter cards inside so people would know what it was. Be sure to save the inner cardboard lining, as cards will fall through if nothing is on the bottom. You will love this!
This box is even more lovely in person! I was looking for something for people to put cards in at my daughter's wedding reception and this will do very well. It has a very clear slot and I'm going to put a starter card in there so people will know for sure what is meant to go in there. I'm also going to use some flowers and ribbon in their color to decorate it with. You may want to keep the cardboard piece in the bottom so cards don't slip out or wrap ribbon across the bottom... or even take the piece of cardboard and have a piece of clear plexiglass cut to fit. What ever you choose to do it will be a perfect addition to a gift table...
Great card holder. We will be using it for my daughter's wedding. Perfect
I was very excited to receive this item as I was getting married and thought it was very different from the usual basket that most people use. However, when I got it in the mail it was dented on 2 sides. The top did not fit properly and the glitter got everywhere.
This gift card box was a hit at our wedding. sharp looking and a cheap buy. We couldn't have been happier. thanks again!
This box is just what I was looking for! Great product!
I ordered this for my niece's wedding. She loved it. It looked very elegant on the table.
Purchased for my daughter's wedding and plan to decorate it with ribbon or flowers. Perfect size. I am pleased with the item and plan to use it as a Christmas decorations after the wedding.
This box holder has gone through an engagement party, two weddings and will be used for for the fourth time for my daughter's wedding next month. It looks so cute and holds the cards beautifully. I will say the glitter is a little annoying but, hey for the price it's worth it.

MISSION — The body of a 23-year-old woman was found early Tuesday morning at 2 ½ Mile Line and Moorefield roads with a gunshot wound to her neck. The incident is being treated as a homicide.
Investigators believe the woman was shot at a different location and then dumped on the side of the road. They also said her body had not been at the location long before passerby's reported seeing her body.
The woman was later identified as Christine Jacqueline Kalifa, mother of three.
Police said when Kalifa's body was found, there was no initial evidence of trauma, but an autopsy revealed she had been shot at close range, execution style at the back of the neck, with a chest exit wound.
Interim Police Chief Martin Garza said police were tracing her steps to attempt to learn who she'd been with.
Family members said Kalifa was picked up by a friend from a family member's house at around 5 p.m. on Monday. Friends also reported last seeing her at about midnight.
Investigators are looking for a crime scene and anyone that might have additional information.
Family members and friends have been cooperating with police providing information about Kalifa's background, friends and locations she frequented.
A search warrant was issued Tuesday afternoon at a house in south Mission, but no evidence related to the homicide was found. Individuals at the residence were arrested for other incidents not related to Kalifa.
As of Wednesday evening, investigators were still interviewing friends and relatives and following up on tips they have been receiving through their TIPS hotline, said Garza.
Kalifa is from the McAllen area, but frequented Mission. Kalifa leaves behind three children from 7 months old to 6 years old and a long-time boyfriend. Her last posts on her Facebook profile include pictures of her oldest son and a Hezekiah Walker quote "I'm still here, I'm still alive, I'm still blessed, on my way to destiny because the favor of God is on my life."
Anyone with any information relating to Kalifa's death can call Mission Crime Stoppers at 956-581-TIPS (8477).

Yankees Top Angels 5-2, Advance to 2009 World Series
Monday, October 26th, 2009 | Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, MLB, New York Yankees, Philadelphia Phillies, Sports | No Comments
The World Series is finally back in New York. The Yankees defeated the Angels 5-2 on Sunday night to advance to their 40th World Series in franchise history. If the Yankees can defeat the Philadelphia Phillies in the 2009 Fall Classic, it will be the Yankees 27th World Championship.
Andy Pettitte pitched a solid game in Game 6 of the ALCS – 1 ER on 7 hits and 1 walk in 6 1/3 innings pitched. Pettitte struck out 6 Angels batters and he won his 16th career post-season game – a major league record. Joba Chamberlain retired the only 2 batters he faced in the 7th inning to get Pettitte and the Yankees out of a "mini" 1-out, 1-on "jam" to preserve the Yankees 3-1 lead. And Mariano Rivera came on for his "typical" 6-out save, although he did give up a run on 2 singles to Chone Figgins and Vladimir Guerrero in the 8th inning. But Rivera worked a perfect 1-2-3 9th inning, striking out Gary Matthews, Jr. to end the game and send the Yankees faithful into a tizzy.
After falling behind 1-0 on a Bobby Abreu RBI single in the 3rd inning, the Yankees rallied to take the lead for good with 3 runs in the 4th inning. Two walks and a single from a patient Yankees lineup loaded the bases with just 1 out. Johnny Damon delivered a clutch 2-run single to left, and then after a Mark Teixeira single loaded the bases again, Angels starter Joe Saunders walked Alex Rodriguez to force in a run. Just like that, the Yankees led 3-1 and they could taste another AL pennant. When the Angels cut the Yankees lead to 3-2 with a run off Rivera in the 8th inning, the Yankees answered right back in the bottom of the inning. Robinson Cano led off with another walk just like he did in the 4th inning. Then the Angels defense deserted them again. Nick Swisher reached on a Howie Kendrick error and then Scott Kazmir threw away Melky Cabrera's sacrifice bunt allowing Cano to score from 2nd base. The Yankees had 2nd and 3rd with nobody out and after a Derek Jeter ground out and a Damon walk, Teixeira drove in the game's final run with a sacrifice fly to deep center field.
Yankees 5, Angels 2. Game over…
The Yankees will host the Phillies in Game 1 of the World Series on Wednesday night. The $201 million payroll – the largest in all of baseball – finally delivered a shot at a World Series to George Steinbrenner and the Yankee brass – it has been 6 years since the Yankees have played in the Fall Classic. Alex Rodriguez – in his 16-year MLB career – is finally going to get to play in his 1st World Series. After struggling in his post-season performance to date, A-Rod delivered in 2009 – .438 batting average, 5 home runs and 12 RBI's in the Yankees 9 playoffs games in 2009. CC Sabathia – the Yankees high-priced ace – will square off against his former Cleveland Indians teammate Cliff Lee on Wednesday night. Both pitchers have been "lights-out during the playoff in 2009. Sabathia is 3-0 with a 1.19 ERA in 3 starts (3 ER, 20 K's and 3 walks in 22 2/3 innings pitched). Lee is 2-0 with a 0.74 ERA in 3 starts (2 ER, 20 K's and 3 walks in 24 1/3 innings pitched). Should be a classic battle – wouldn't it be great to see these 2 duke it out in Games 1, 4 and 7?! Can't wait. We'll have our predictions over the next 2 days leading up to Wednesday's contest.

Allstate encourages everyone to drive safely for holiday travel
NORTHBROOK, Ill., July 1, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Millions of Americans will hit the road this Independence Day for family parties, barbecues, and celebrations, but for many travelers this upcoming weekend, it may end in heartbreak. According to research from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), July 4 continues to be the deadliest day on the road for all Americans.
In the U.S., car crashes are the number one cause of death for everyone ages 1-34, with teens crashing four times more often than any other age group. Based on the latest available data, IIHS reports that more than 630 people were killed on July 4 from 2008-2012. If this trend continues, on average, 127 people will lose their lives in a car crash on July 4.
Allstate asks all Americans to do their part to make roads safer for all families during the Independence Day holiday. Here are three simple ways to have a safe holiday on the road:
For teens, July 4 continues to be one of the deadliest days on the road and is tied with two other summer days for fatal car crashes. The summer months are particularly deadly for this population mostly because school is out and more miles are being driven.
Allstate recently launched a unique tool to help parents keep their teens safer on the road.
Star Driver, a smartphone-based tool powered by the new Drivewise® Mobile app, helps identify and teach safe driving behaviors. Star Driver empowers parents and their teenage drivers to focus on safe driving at an early age. Available countrywide, the new program offers a driving agreement between parents and their teens to establish expectations and parameters. Both the parents and teens agree on limits about where, when and how fast the teen is allowed to drive. Parents can be alerted with a text message or email if the teen violates part of the agreement.
Allstate customers can download the Drivewise Mobile app countrywide to use the Star Driver feature. It's available in Google Play and the iTunes App Store.
The Allstate Corporation (NYSE: ALL) is the nation's largest publicly held personal lines insurer, protecting approximately 16 million households from life's uncertainties through its Allstate, Encompass, Esurance and Answer Financial brand names and Allstate Financial business segment. Allstate is widely known through the slogan "You're In Good Hands With Allstate®." The Allstate brand's network of small businesses offers auto, home, life and retirement products and services to customers in the United States and Canada. In 2013, The Allstate Foundation, Allstate, its employees and agency owners gave $29 million to support local communities. Allstate employees and agency owners donated 200,000 hours of service across the country.

GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) - A recent study from UW-Green Bay finds that a mineral called strontium can be found in your drinking water.
Wisconsin's Department of Health Services says that the mineral occurs naturally in the environment and this particular type of strontium is not radioactive.
"As you come closer to Brown County and Outagamie County, people have their wells pulling water out of rock layers that are further down in the earth," sUW-Green Bay Geoscience Professor John Luczha tells FOX 11.
The older rock holds minerals like strontium and if water is present, it can dissolve the mineral.
"If you notice where you have the yellow, and especially the red and orange dots on here, those are samples from wells where you have something like four milligrams per liter or higher, dissolved strontium. There are a number of wells throughout the region that actually exceed this short-term health advisory," Luczha said.
The study took 115 samples from municipal and private wells. The Environmental Protection Agency says the Lifetime Health Advisory Limit for strontium in your drinking water shouldn't be more than four milligrams per liter.
Preliminary findings from the UWGB study found 73 of its samples contained higher levels of strontium than the EPA's recommendation.
"Somebody who maybe tests their water, and it comes out higher than four milligrams per liter, should not immediately assume that suddenly they're going to have negative health effects," Roy Irving, a toxicologist with the Wisconsin Department of Health Services, tells FOX 11.
Unlike well water, the Green Bay Water Utility gets its water from Lake Michigan. Although the water goes through a filtration process, the company still tests for strontium and other material within the drinking water each year.
Based on the UWGB study, the DNR is looking into the strontium results that were found. DNR officials recommend private well owners to sample their wells for bacteria, strontium, and other minerals that may be in the drinking water.
