At a birthday surprise in the newsroom, there was a ABC News President Ben Sherwood cake and then magician David Blaine just appeared out of nowhere and started doing magic tricks… so…
The boy asked why men waited in their misery.And he said no man waits in his misery; a man warning the pedestrian in the street is always one step behind being his savior, but a man's savior is always first himself and only selfish men give away burdens to the unsuspecting. These are the men in misery, though they had chosen their misery. They were not waiting for anything. And some men enjoyed their misery and those men were to be left be, but not all men could contain, and that is why there was pain.He spoke as a deep, baritone horn, but his words carried the pierce of an alto flute. He was a forgotten man, of forgotten memories and forgotten ages. He lived three lifetimes and he knew life and he knew desires and he knew the hearts of men and he knew death as if they were his brothers. He could speak to them because he once did, and what once was, always was to the man.But he was a man of three ages and like the creek, he said, he swelled to a river in his years, and the pain of one lifetime's memories was three lifetime's memories, but still only one man.The boy asked if men were good when he was a boy.It was true the men of a forgotten age respected and revered in a lost way, but it was also true that he had learned of lies and their lifeblood in a man's survival and it was disingenuous to him that any man of a new age should assume men of the forgotten age were not the same. He said that the lives of men were based on lies, but it was not taught, it was just learned.And the boy asked how it could be that one could learn if there were none to teach.The man was silent.The boy asked of life and its reasoning if it was built upon the lies. But the man said there was none and the boy said there must be and the man was quiet.And then he said there was no singular reason a man's life existed and those who believed such things were mad and had gone mad in their attempts to reason a sole purpose.The boy asked how the man knew and the man said that he had gone mad and returned in his time.He said that it was true that men came across reasons in their lives and they lived for them. And when a man came to the times he found no reason, he took them as a sign; some men held on, some men died.The boy's eyes were lost but this was not the first lost eyes the man had seen. He said that men learn as they do and they didn't always need a teacher, that pain and memory were brutal but honest teachers; they provided lessons no man could.And the boy said he did not understand.And the man said that was expected.And the boy was silent.
Across the snowy street, breakfast goes 'til 3 p.m. The coffee is sweet and the milk is smooth. The waitress is an angel and I noticed that she'd gotten her hair cut. Bruce Springsteen is on repeat in my head… "What's that?" They're out of strawberries for the pancakes. "That's OK. Regular buttermilk will do." I think a bit about wanting to be in Yellowstone and Seattle and DC - or somewhere along the Amalfi coast, maybe. I always dream of multiple places at once, it seems. But I remember where I am. I love it here…
There is nothing new about news outlets and their journalists competing for the limited eyes and ears of viewers, but a paradigm shift in information sharing has occurred in the past 10 years as outlets and journalists have slowly, and perhaps unwittingly, begun giving direct access to their own sources, thereby slowly deleting themselves as media.
The overall idea of journalism is to facilitate and continually increase the share of factual, pertinent information.
A journalist is interested in giving to readers as much information from as many credible sources as possible; to allow those readers to make informed decisions with the information from those sources.
But a loss of voice and function for media is slowly growing and it is troubling for the industry and the individual journalist.
The practice of sharing the content of others makes your voice the voice of others; people hear their voices and not your voice.
For a growing number of outlets and journalists, including myself, curating journalism sources has become its own form of journalism. But with that, an increase in sharing direct sources has greatly increased and opened a dangerous window between giving people information and giving away to people the sources that make journalism a career practice.
In journalism, media are medium(s) between the reader and the source. They are the voice of information.
But every person with access to a computer or smart phone and an Internet access now has a voice that can penetrate an audience large or small given the right circumstances. It's not just, as some love to say with negative connotation, "The Establishment," anymore — and that's not going away.
The shift seen is these established media accounts and journalists following along with the curators in directly sharing information from information sources — a police department, a government official, a politician, a fast food conglomerate, a link to a person's Facebook photo, etc. — instead of vetting and reproducing the information and content for the reader, on their own platforms, where they make their living.
In theory, these sources gaining the opportunity to share their own message is good practice, because, again, the goal is to give people access to information and let them decide their view, but what occurs in practice is people gravitate to the sources they want and stop using your service of curation and reporting — your platforms — when they get what they want on their own.
They don't need you anymore. They now have direct access to what they want. You have no purpose.
The ramifications for the journalism industry should be obvious.
If you look long-term, such practice could prove catastrophic, because if curators overshare direct sources and the standard-bearing outlets like the New York Times or CNN or Reuters or AP fold because their purpose as the bedrock source-gatherers collapses, journalism would simply be unfettered but unvetted information anarchy.
The loss of market control is a common theme seen in the progression of technology in any consumer industry:
"I took the train, but now I have a car. I don't need the train." Train travel was revolutionary in its time and truly led to the expansion and populating of the country you see today, but the arrival of personal car travel subjugated the industry.
"I used to send hand-written or typed letter via snail mail, but now I just email." The US Postal Service is bleeding loses because they didn't adjust to the loss of their consumers.
As someone who traffics daily in curating sources — be them other journalists and outlets, or citizen-journalists sharing reports and content on social media, or sources of information in my own reporting in a regional news market — I understand the danger of giving away my sources.
Over time, you begin to see that instead of you being part of reports with the trustworthy sources you have curated over time, the sources become the sources of your competitors — even colleagues — and you are basically ignored when they begin to share information, circumventing you.
In the breaking news community, especially on Twitter, this is common practice and just part of the dynamic in the community, but it teaches a valuable lesson that you have to be careful to not make the purpose of your work obsolete by giving away the sources you've worked hard and spent time researching to come to a point where you can trust them and share their information as a fellow information source.
During the Westgate Mall attack in Kenya, I felt it necessary to cite government reports accounts without giving direct link to the Twitter accounts.
For someone whose presence in journalism is gathering sources of information on social media and sharing them on the same platforms, giving away those accounts would make my work pointless, if my viewers had the same direct knowledge of access to those sources as I did.
Why would they need me if they could just get it from the horse's mouth?
For some, it might be viewed as stingy or closed-off to withhold direct access to sources, but the point is not to make oneself point-less as a journalist.
Those who work in the industry understand what happens when you cite and name a source of information in a report:
1. Competitor's report: "According to sheriff's spokesperson John Doe…"
2. Find John Doe's number
3. Call John Doe immediately
4. John Doe is now your source and you don't need to cite the competitor's report
1. Competitor's report: "According to a law enforcement official…"
2. Call lots of law enforcement sources in the area
3. Take an hour before you finally find the original source and deliver your own report
To some extent, that's annoying to those who are interested in Big J, as it's not really holding the officials accountable by putting the pressure on them to make sure their information is accurate. Sources are much more likely to double-check their information is accurate if their name is in the report, as there will be backlash if they are wrong — either in the public view or in their inner circle or both.
But it serves a very practical and survivalist purpose.
If I give up my sources, I lose or greatly cut down my purpose as an information medium when local competitors divide the local viewership into eight segments, instead of just your one. Or national outlets get my source and overwhelm my report audience with their massive presence.
It happens all the time.
The direct sharing of official information or of competitors' reports should be of great concern to journalism as an industry.
This division of source information to multiple outlets is increasingly cutting down on the ability for individual outlets to maintain a big enough audience to generate the continued interest of the advertisers or funding partners who are ultimately the base drivers of journalism.
A similar paradigm is what led to the ongoing decline of newspapers:
Instead of adjusting quickly to the digital platform renaissance, there was much backlash from newspapers as they stuck to their print editions and saw digital platforms as threats to the print industry that needed to be overrun, not assimilated. Conversely, TV stations, bloggers and the like moved in and took a still-growing chunk of the print audience, because they jumped onboard with the inevitable and simply made themselves multi-platform outlets, thereby keeping and growing the audience that was adjusting to the digital age's new platforms.
Some newspapers get it now and are making their product cross-platform and are surviving and even growing. But still others are sinking with the newspaper platform ship, without understanding that though loved and tradition, a newspaper is just a platform to share the product.
In simple economic terms, the supply is outweighing the demand as the markets become saturated with producers of the information product. There are only so many eyes that are interested in the daily consumption of the news product.
What took a large news outlet sending a journalist on an intercontinental trip and working with established relationships to get to a source, one person sitting on their home computer can now reach that same source within seconds with a tweet or a phone call or a text message.
As a regional news example, on Saturday, I saw a tweet from the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office about a police officer involved in a shooting.
At some point, I had come across that account because it was directly retweeted into my timeline by either a news outlet or a journalist from that market. I followed it as a new source of information.
I then saw a vague tweet from WJXT in Jacksonville mentioning a little bit more information, but they had piqued my interest — without giving me a link to more information.
With interest piqued, I went back to the JSO Twitter account and found a full recorded news conference with a JSO official that JSO had shared with the world on YouTube.
From there, I was able to write my own report and had no need to cite WJXT, because I had all the information directly from JSO.
I didn't need WJXT to give me any more information. I had it, from an official, for myself and my outlet. Jacksonville is 200 miles away, but I had all the content I really needed to make a good, viral story.
WJXT is singled-out because I needed an example, but the overteasing of information when the information is already readily available to the reader elsewhere is a chronic practice across digital journalism. Ergo, I'm not going to wait for 30 minutes for you to post it when it's very likely I can find it posted somewhere else already.
For media outlets like WJXT, fighting for views in a particular market, this is a problem that may not really be very visual in their analytics right now, but if outlets don't begin to understand that they are being supplanted as a medium by the information sources they are meant to be between, their purpose will slow-drain away and they begin to merely limp along like snail mail or passenger train – or even become entirely obsolete.
If I am only interested in getting information about the murder that occurred on my street last night, and the police department put their full (unedited, unchecked, sometimes biased) press release on Facebook, why do I need to go looking for it on a jumbled news website or sit through a video with ads or 15 minutes of TV news, when I could just see the whole thing, knowing it will be the most recent post on the department's Facebook?
Another interesting dynamic that is seen is media outlets directly sharing reports from other news outlets that aren't even affiliated with themselves or their parent companies.
For example, @Newsbreaker and @BuzzFeedNews on Twitter and Facebook have seen their following grow through this practice, as well as their own work in penetrating the market with original and pseudo-original content, and that is great for them, but troubling for those outlets that are struggling to gain viewers to their own account, with their own voice.
Those outlets are sharing information, but giving away the opportunity of reach to those non-affiliated outlets. The viewer sees @Newsbreaker, not this local outlet or that local outlet that is sharing that content, without repurposing it and sharing it in their own name.
To an extent, there is a return on the investment: you share me and I'll share you. But for many, news is a matter of particular interests and if an outlet like @BuzzFeedNews can curate only the best stories, I may find myself unfollowing and stop paying attention to my local outlet because they often share stuff I really don't care about.
Example: "If it's a story that's interesting, @BuzzFeedNews will share it. So, I'm not going to clutter up my feed with the other mundane stuff from my local outlet."
With all the above in mind, I still think it's important not to let it discourage the sharing of social media sources and giving credit where credit is due by promoting the outlets as good information sources — journalists who are doing great in remote places, journalists who are putting their lives on the line to cover a shooting, outlets like the Texas Tribune who function literally as a public service, citizens near an explosion or natural disaster who are sharing minute-by-minute information from the ground — but simply to be cognizant of maintaining and growing as medium and making sure the work doesn't become obsolete.
Law enforcement and government officials and companies and bloggers shouldn't be offended or discouraged by what's said above. There is a great work being done and I believe in open-source information, even if most of what is said above goes against opening the world directly to sources.
My point is for journalists and news outlets to understand early that they can't lose their purpose and for them to be more aware of how they share the information.
To some journalists, their ideal is a society when and where professional journalists won't be needed, where people perform citizen journalism and don't have to rely on outlets to be media in the practice of information-sharing.
But that will likely always simply be an ideal, as people lie and stretch the truth and hide information, and strong journalists backed by strong media apparatuses will be needed to cut through to at least as close to the truth as possible.
I have learned that men are not inherently good and men are not inherently evil: they just are.
I have learned that men can hate and men can love, in consecutive breaths.
I have learned of deaths and fears and failures — I have memorized their rhythms when they have rattled my heart.
I have learned to fight and press on and to give up and give in and to wait… wait.
I have experienced vengeance and exhibited passion and heralded love and I have learned of their oft ambiguity.
I have cried through pain and madness and have wept in crowds of jubilance, and surely, I have sat in the silence, the numbing silence, in disbelief at my inabilities and my misfortunes.
I have championed great achievements and I have held my head high and survived my hubris.
I have seen the exit flow of my blood — my life. I have tempted my fate. I have feared for my life. I have matched wits as I have matched fists against men.
I have learned of forgiveness from those whom have sought my harm, just as those whom I have crossed.
I have learned to all a purpose and to all a time, unto and post mortum.
And for it all, I have learned the acceptances that I do not and will not know the why of all things in their time.
I have learned… I have learned… my god, have I learned.
Dear news website ad,
I don't mind you, mostly. I do mind when you're annoying.
And what may be more annoying, is that you can't be more creative and less annoying with yourself.
Some things you should know:
1. No one has ever looked at your contents when you popped up without immediately X-ing you out.
2. As a result, no one has ever intentionally clicked on you. Like… ever.
3. Why are you behind my active window? I'm not even going to see you until I've decided to close out all of my windows. And even then, I'm not looking, because I'm trying to find the X.
4. I immediately start looking for ways to get half-page you off my screen when I see you hover, without ever looking at what you have to say.
5. I'm not paying to get inside your pay wall. I'll just go to any of the other 100 websites with the same information.
6. You as an auto-play video or audio is so annoying, especially when you hide at the bottom of the page. I'm not listening to what is said in you, because I'm trying to figure out how to turn you off.
7. I was going to watch a web video you were in front of, but you took 3 minutes to load. In that time, I went and found the video I wanted on YouTube and watched the entire thing, and never came back to you.
8. Tell your page to stop trying to artificially pad its page clicks by putting the article on 5 pages and making me click through them. One page will do. Just line it with a bunch of you. I don't care.
9. Tell your page that no one is trying to hack your stupid website. If you think you need a CAPTCHA, you should hire a better web development team.
10. Oh, look. You got me to click on you by timing the loading of a page element to the average time it takes a person to click the area the desired link was before it moved. Now you've sent me somewhere I don't want to be and I just clicked out of both windows.
You're being annoying. Sure, you'll get short term gains in ads, but you're annoying away visitors, like me, and I won't stick around.
Listen… I want you to do well. You are how I get to do what I do for a living, but man, figure something else out.
LONDON — An American news outlet is reporting that something may have happened but maybe not, too, because.The outlet cited unconfirmed reports that other media were reporting the report from the first outlet that reported it, dissolving itself of responsibility in the event that the provocative report turned out to be wrong."The link at the end of this headline is going to get a lot of clicks and we want to make sure they click on our link citing their unconfirmed report as our unconfirmed report," a source at the news outlet said. "It's important that we get out front of this story, because if it turns out it's true, people will think we broke the story."The spokesperson said a plan was in place to not issue a correction and ignore everyone who asks why there isn't a correction in the event that the report turns out to be complete bullshit.
The initial outlet to report the report that the other outlet called an unconfirmed report called the other outlet out on Twitter for stealing their report.
The other outlet released a statement stating, "It's the Internet. Come on."

TAMPA, Fla. — Employees at a television news station in Tampa, Florida, are scrambling to pet and gain the affection of a golden retriever that randomly appeared in their newsroom Tuesday.
According to a witness at ABC Action News, the dog was extremely nice, carried a stuffed animal that appeared to be the Disney character "Tigger" and seemed wholly disinterested in every person who attempted to pet it.
The dog reportedly came from the back of the newsroom, to the front of the newsroom and leisurely walked around the assignment desk, but talked to no one.
Attempts to confirm with fellow employees in the newsroom as to why the dog was there went unanswered.
"I don't know," a noon producer said.
"Aww," a veteran assignment editor reportedly said.
A managing editor who asked not to be identified was seen talking to the dog like a small child.
The dog has vanished into the set area of the newsroom.
The dog has not answered ABC Action News' request for comment as of publication.

They brought me home in 19 and 88. Back then, you could carry me in one hand — this was after I survived that virus they tell me almost killed me — but Momma always said the doctor said I was gonna be biggest outta 99. And I was. I was gonna be a bird. Then I was gonna a preacher. Then I was gonna be a meteorologist. Then I was gonna play football, but I quit. And then I was gonna play football again, but I got kicked off the team. Then I was gonna play football again, and ran off to college to do it. Momma encouraged. Momma always made me peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and she still makes the World's Finest Chili, though she took to not making me those sandwiches — as a matter of forcing me to grow up, I guess. Yea, my momma is the best momma I could have asked for and the best momma in my world — I ain't worried about her rank in others' world. One day back in the childhood 90s, I was playing in the backyard and I realized people died, and I was gonna die one day… and then I realized momma might die one day. Little boy ran into the house, screaming for momma. We sat on the couch and I cried hard and asked momma not to leave and what was going to happen when she left. I think I remember her saying she didn't know and that was about the best answer to that question. I still don't know what I'm going to do when that day comes. Probably cry like I'm crying now, but like then, I try not to think about it and spend as much time with her as I can, even as I try to become the writer and editor and successful man that boy ultimately decided he wanted to be. I don't know what one does without their mother. And I don't want to see my world when that day comes… So, for now, I celebrate and thank all for my mother for the rock she has been for me since that September day they brought me home in 19 and 88.
While living just outside Grand Tenton National Park in early 2011, I met a Russian girl, Alena, who was in the western United States on an internship visa.
We became good friends and took a few scenic drives together, before we said our goodbyes at the end of the Jackson Hole winter season.
One day, we decided to take a late evening drive from Jackson into the national park to check out Jackson Lake and hopefully catch the sunset on the Tetons.
It was all we could have hoped as we took in momentous spectacles that included walking on water and sunset show that massaged the heart and the soul.
I miss you… [Grand Teton National Park - Early 2011]
One must note when going to the defense of a friend, the attacker has diagnosed weakness that exhibited worth in attacking, and therefore, one must take into account that the friend's weakness will not be corrected during the fight. One should not expect and rely upon help from the friend in defending the weakness, much less the entirety of the friend.One should enter defense expecting and anticipating being the sole defense, whilst accepting the added assists in defense from the friend, if capable."Expect the worst. Hope for the best."

Bruce Willis by the numbers
Die Hard 2: Die Harder
In 1990, the same year as Look Who's Talking Too, Bruce Willis reprised his role as John McClane in Die Hard 2: Die Harder (the subtitle of which should never be ignored). Die Hard 2: Die Harder is based on a book called 58 Minutes about a cop named Frank Malone, who doesn't die even remotely hard, but does stop terrorists who take an airport hostage while his wife's plane circles overhead on the brink of crashing for lack of fuel. Just like the Die Hard 2: Die Harder storyline, none of the pilots ever consider flying to an alternative airport.

PORTLAND, Oregon -- Rescuers have reached the six hikers who became stranded on a cliff between the Oneonta Gorge and Multnomah Falls after getting lost Wednesday.
The woman and five teens were part of a church youth group. Searchers said they "cliffed out," meaning they went down a steep incline to a point where they could neither descend or ascend.
"They are hanging in there and they're doing really well at this point," said Sgt. Stephen Dangler with the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office.
The hikers were located about 2 a.m. Thursday, in good condition, but could not immediately be reached by rescuers due to their precarious position. They had only limited supplies with them and were not prepared to spend the night in the woods.
Bringing them out will require a high-angle rope rescue, according to the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office. Rescuers were able to get to them before noon Thursday and were preparing the harnesses and other equipment to safely get them down.
The hikers were located on a steep incline leading down to a cliff below Cougar Rock, at about 1,000 feet elevation, officials said. The woman was identified as Julie Fritts, 57, of Grass Valley. The teens were from Oregon City, Gladstone and Grass Valley, according to officials.
Dangler said the hikers did not have warm clothing, flashlights or much food and water with them. He said Thursday's rescue served as an important reminder why people should always bring emergency supplies with them, just in case.
"Have a plan, let people know what you're plan is going to be and be prepared for the elements," he added. "Carry the basics, including food and water and enough gear to be able to survive overnight."

DIY Fruit Balloons
Oh Happy Day
This adorable balloon garland set the scene for a fruit party; each guest brought an exotic fruit and the hosts provided a bounty of quotidian produce. We think it would be a great design element for a kids' party.
Brittany made her garland with balloons, green paper for leaves, twine, tape, and scissors. Balloons were inflated to various sizes to reflect the scale of their respective fruits (long balloons were perfect for bananas) and leaves were cut out from paper, creased and taped onto balloons. See the play by play at Oh Happy Day.
For other ideas worthy of a fruity kids' fete, check out this fruity rainbow and see how fruit skewers become fruit wands when topped with starfruit.

Adorable and refreshing. So much better than a Princess Party or a Super hero party. Although I know some little people who might not agree.
Love it. This could work for bridal and baby showers, too.
Cute and festive!
i want these for my birthday party! i'm 22.

William G. Steel served as superintendent of Crater Lake National Park from July 1913 to November 20, 1916. During his 3-1/2 years as superintendent Steel continued to spearhead efforts for the development of the park that he had done much to bring into existence. His dreams for the park, however, were tempered by the lack of adequate congressional appropriations.
During his tenure as superintendent the park staff grew slowly. A second seasonal park ranger was hired to aid Momyer in 1913. Two years later Momyer became the first permanent park ranger at Crater Lake and a guard was added to the protection force. Thus, the embryonic ranger organization in 1915 consisted of Momyer, First Class Park Ranger; F.J. Murphy, Temporary Park Ranger; and M.L. Edwards, Guard. [1]
One of the first projects carried out by Steel was to establish an enlarged park headquarters at Anna Spring. The name of park headquarters was changed from Camp Arant to Anna Spring Camp. During the summer of 1913 he had a small cottage moved to the main road and had it remodeled for "a convenient office building." He observed:
The new office, however, became inadequate for park needs by 1915. In that year Steel commented on the need for a new administration building:
One of the principal continuing activities in the park during Steel's superintendency was that of road construction under the direction of the Corps of Engineers. By the end of his tenure as superintendent Steel was able to report:
Earlier in 1914 Steel had explained his views on paving the roads under construction:
In addition to the road network Steel was proud of the Mount Scott Trail he had initiated in the park. In 1916 he noted that
Fishing prospects in the lake continued to be enhanced by planting both by the Crater Lake Company and park management. In 1914, for instance, the company placed 2,000 rainbow fry in the lake and Steel planted 20,000 steelheads. The following year Steel planted 15,000 black spotted fry in the lake. Steel recommended that no further planting be done until the matter of fish food had been settled. As there were "no enemies to fish already in the lake," their numbers had grown enormously to the point that the lake was "fairly teeming with them." However, nothing had ever been done to increase the food supply for the fish.
One of the first wildlife management issues that Steel confronted was that of deer being chased by loose dogs in the park. While there were many deer in the park they were rarely seen along park roads because, according to Steel, "dogs have been permitted to run at large and probably chase them, causing them to become shy." Thus, on September 13, 1913, the Department of the Interior, at the recommendation of Steel, issued the following instructions:
Game protection continued to be a problem for Steel as it had been for Arant. In 1913 Steel described the problems he was facing in protection of park wildlife:
Accordingly, he, like Arant, proposed the creation of
In 1914 Steel proposed a second solution to the problem of game protection and overall law enforcement in the park. He observed:
Forest fires continued to be a critical problem for Superintendent Steel. In 1913 several small fires were started by careless campers. In one case in which live trees were destroyed, the offenders were apprehended and ejected from the park. The summers of 1914 and 1915 were unusually dry, thus leading to extraordinary precautions against forest fires. More than twenty fires broke out in the park in 1914, although all were extinguished before significant damage resulted. Thunderstorms and lightning ignited many of the fires in the park, the most significant occurring in 1916 when one storm resulted in four fires in the park and ten in the surrounding forests.
Road repair work during the spring continued to be a major component of Steel's duties as he prepared the park for the summer tourists. To repair the washed out roads he began a new practice of cutting out the road sides and dragging them rather than "cutting out the middle."
Steel also gave attention to trail maintenance. The trail to the lake was in need of major repairs virtually every spring. In 1913 rocks were removed from the trait so that burros kept by the Crater Lake Company could pass over it.
Steel began a program of "cleaning" the grounds and roadsides of the park of "dead and down timber." He did so because this debris afforded "dangerously inflammable material for spreading fire and destruction." In 1913 he stated:
Under an agreement with the War Department the first unit of a proposed sprinkling system for park roads was installed in September 1914. This involved construction of a water tank on a hill near the park headquarters that provided sufficient pressure for a gravity system and fire protection facilities for the headquarters area. At a cost of $1,200 the system was expanded during 1915. That year Steel described the system as containing
Steel also took steps to provide for garbage and tin can collection and disposal. These services were designed to improve the sanitary condition of the park campground areas.
In 1916 Steel proposed that efforts be made to provide the public with drinking water at the rim of he lake. He stated:
Permits for driving loose stock through the park continued to be issued during 1913-16. The peak year was 1915 when eight permits were granted to drive a total of 902 sheep, 393 cattle, and 9 horses through the park.
In addition to the aforementioned concessions granted to the Crater Lake Company and the Klamath Telephone & Telegraph company, two new concessionaires began operations in the park in 1913. The Kiser Photo Company of Portland and the Miller Photo Company of Klamath Falls were granted licenses for photographic privileges and the display and sale of views and post cards. The fees for these licenses were $10 per year. The license for the Kiser Photo Company was not renewed in 1915, thus giving the Miller Photo Company the sole right to photograph Crater Lake scenery and sell post cards.
A touch of scandal was associated with a concession permit granted to H.J. Boyd of Ashland for the period June 1-November 1, 1916. Under the terms of the permit Boyd was allowed "to bring people back through the Crater Lake National Park via the Lake" in his 1915 5-passenger Ford Touring Car "on his return from fishing trips" in Klamath and Lake counties. He was limited to a total of ten trips during the season. Later in December 1916 it was reported that Boyd had taken advantage of his permit since "his passengers were nearly all women, none of whom looked as though they were on a fishing trip. [2]
Increasing numbers of automobiles were driven to the park by vacationers during 1913-16. In 1913 permits were issued to 760 automobiles and 13 motorcycles at $1 each for a single round trip through the park. By 1915 the number of permits issued included: 2,231 round-trip automobile permits at $1 each; 13 season automobile permits at $5 each; and 30 round-trip motorcycle permits at $1 each. In 1916 2,649 automobiles entered the park, an all-time record to date. The growing number of automobiles in the park led the Department of the Interior to issue new automobile regulations for the park in 1916, a copy of which may be seen in Appendix A.
Park visitation continued to grow during 1913-16. In 1913, for instance, park visitation totaled 6,253 (June--43; July--1,144; August--3,002; September--1,637; October--418; November--9). That year the total number of guests entertained at the two permanent camps in the park was 2,240, a gain of more than sixty percent over the total for 1912.
Park visitation increased to 7,096 in 1914, the first year for which there are available published records providing statistical breakdowns both for monthly and state breakdowns. These statistics were:
Visitors to Crater Lake National Park
Visitors by States
Visitation increased to 11,371 in 1915, stimulated in part by two world's fairs on the Pacific Coast. Of this total, more than 10,000 visitors were from the states of Oregon (8,869), California (1,147), and Washington (305). Three foreign countries were also represented: Canada (12), England (1), and Sweden (1). Every state in the Union was represented except for South Carolina, South Dakota, and Virginia.
In August 1915 William Jennings Bryan, who had resigned recently as Secretary of State, visited Crater Lake while on a western vacation. After spending the night in the recently completed lodge, he and his wife, accompanied by Superintendent Steel and several park rangers, walked down to the lake for a launch trip. The taxing climb back up to the rim led to Bryan's notorious proposal for construction of "a tunnel just above the lake level, through the rim to a connecting road." He proposed the tunnel so that visitors could reach the lake "without the laborious one thousand feet or more steep descent and climb over a slippery and dangerous trail" which could "only be made a few months of the year and is almost impossible for old people." [3]
Steel took up the campaign for a tunnel to the lake. In 1916 he formally requested $1,000 to conduct surveys for a tunnel. His justification for such an expenditure read:
Despite heavy and late snows in 1916, park visitation increased to an all-time high to date of 12,265. This figure was reached despite the fact that at the close of July travel was only fifty percent of the previous year.
One of the improvements to park facilities and services carried out by Steel was the installation of a new telephone system. In 1915 he reported on his efforts:
Throughout his superintendency Steel continued to make recommendations for park improvements, many of which were not implemented because of inadequate park appropriations. Among these proposals was an electric light and power plant near the park headquarters to provide light and operate machinery in a woodworking and blacksmith shop that he wished to construct. He recommended that the falls of Anna Creek be used to operate the light and power plant. The expense of carrying electric power to the rim of the lake would be inexpensive, since the park would raise revenue by supplying light and power to the concessionaires.
The question of patented lands in the park continued to bother Steel. In 1913 and 1914 he urged that such titles to park lands be terminated to forestall private development:
Steel recommended that a building be constructed to provide dining, sleeping, and living quarters for seasonal park workers. Since the park was far removed from population centers it was difficult at best to attract summer labor. In view of the fact that the Klamath region was stock country and haying operations reached their peak in July and August, laborers were in demand at good wages during the summer. The lack of adequate housing and sanitary facilities made it even more difficult to attract park labor.
Steel became enamored with the idea of government ownership of all concessions and private development in the park. His goal became that of making Crater Lake a self-sustaining entity. In 1914, for instance, he stated:
In 1914 and 1915 Steel renewed earlier recommendations to expand the park boundaries northward and westward and enlarge the park to include Diamond Lake, Mount Thielsen, and Mount Bailey. After considerable study of the issue, he observed in 1914:
After consulting with the supervisors of the national forests surrounding Crater Lake National Park, Steel and the forestry officials agreed to support jointly a revision and extension of the park boundaries in 1915. The revised park boundaries, which soon encountered opposition, read:
In view of the foregoing examination of park management issues and development projects in Crater Lake National Park during 1913-16, the question arises as to the type, details, and quality of experience that a park visitor had during those years. [5] During these years the tourist season generally extended from June 15 to September 30.
In a general park information circular for 1913 the visitor accommodations and means by which the park could be reached were described. According to the brochure the park was accessible from
Visitor accommodations provided by the Crater Lake Company included:
Free camping privileges in designated areas were open to the public subject to park regulations. [6]
Arrangements were made to improve transportation to the park during the 1913-16 period. Prior to these years the Crater Lake Company had maintained a line of automobile stages from Medford on the main line of the Southern Pacific, a distance of 85 miles from the park. In 1914 similar service was begun from Chiloquin on the northerly extension of the Southern Pacific (known as the Crater Lake or Natron cut-off) from Klamath Falls. That same year was the first time in the history of the park that one could purchase a ticket from Portland to California towns, or vice versa, and travel via Crater Lake at an additional expense of only $13 for automobile fare between Medford or Chiloquin.
Authorized Rates, Crater Lake Company, 1913
The details of railroad and concession-operated automobile transportation to the park in 1914 was described in a general information circular. It stated:
Rates for the automobile service were:
The account of a visitor to Crater Lake via private automobile during the summer of 1914 provides insight relative to park visitors' experiences during this period. The account, which was published in the December 1914 issue of the Ladd & Bush Quarterly, read:
On June 28, 1915, Crater Lake Lodge opened to the public. The building of cut-stone and frame construction contained 64 sleeping rooms and was described as having ample bathing and fire protection facilities. The lodge quickly became the focal point of visitor accommodations in the park. A branch of the general merchandise store at Camp Arant was located in the lodge building. Tents were also available at the lodge as sleeping quarters, meals being taken at the lodge. Anna Spring Camp continued to provide less expensive accommodations in its "well-floored tents." (See below for hotel and camp charges and maps relating to the park in 1915.) [9]
In addition to the railroad and concessioner-operated transportation arrangements for reaching the park, improvements continued to be made to roads leading to Crater Lake from the Klamath region and the Rogue River Valley during 1913-16. In the latter year the opening of the Pinnacles entrance on the eastern boundary facilitated park visitation from central and eastern Oregon.
Hotel and Camp Charges, Crater Lake Co., 1915
Automobile Regulations of March 1, 1916
Pursuant to authority conferred by the act of May 22, 1902 (32 Stats., 202), setting aside certain lands in the State of Oregon as a public park, the following regulations governing the admission of automobiles into the Crater Lake National Park are hereby established and made public:
1. Entrances--Automobiles may enter and leave the park by either of the three entrances.
2. Automobiles--The park is open to automobiles operated for pleasure, but not to those carrying passengers who are paying, either directly or indirectly, for the use of machines (excepting, however, automobiles used by concessionaires under permits from the department). Careful driving is demanded of all persons using the roads. The Government is in no way responsible for any kind of accident.
3. Fees--Entrance fees are payable in cash only, and will be as follows:
4. Automobile permits--Automobile permits must be secured at the checking station where the automobile enters the park. This permit must be conveniently kept so that it can be exhibited to park rangers on demand. Each trip permit must be exhibited to automobile checker at point of exit, who will stamp across the back of the permit: "Void after _______ (hour and date)" and return to owner or driver. The automobile may then reenter the park by the same or any other road (or entrance) within 12 hours from time of leaving park.
Automobile permits will show (a) name of station issuing permit, (b) name of owner or driver, (c) State and license number of automobile.
5. Muffler cut-outs--Muffler cut-outs must be closed while approaching or passing riding horses, horse-drawn vehicles, hotels, camps, or checking stations.
6. Distance apart--Gears and brakes--Automobiles while in motion must not be less than 50 yards apart, except for purpose of passing, which is permissible only on comparatively level or slight grades. All automobiles, except while shifting gears, must retain their gears constantly enmeshed. Persons desiring to enter the park in an automobile will be required to satisfy the guard issuing the automobile permit that the machine in general (and particularly the brakes and tires) is in first-class working order and capable of making the trip, and that there is sufficient gasoline in the tank to reach the next place where it may be obtained. The automobile must carry two extra tires. All drivers will be required effectually to block and skid the rear wheels with either foot or hand brake, or such other brakes as may be a part of the equipment of the automobile.
7. Speeds--Speed is limited to 10 miles per hour, except on straight stretches, when, if no team is nearer than 200 yards, it may be increased not to exceed 20 miles per hour.
8. Horns--The horn will be sounded on approaching curves, or stretches of road concealed for any considerable distance by slopes, overhanging trees, or other obstacles; and before meeting or passing other machines, riding or driving animals, or pedestrians.
9. Teams--When teams, saddle horses, or pack trains approach, automobiles will take the outer edge of the roadway, regardless of the direction in which they are going, taking care that sufficient room is left on the inside for the passage of vehicles and animals. Teams have the right of way, and automobiles will be backed or otherwise handled as may be necessary so as to enable teams to pass with safety. In no case must automobiles pass animals on the road at a speed greater than 8 miles per hour.
10. Accidents--When, due to breakdown or accidents of any other nature, automobiles are unable to keep going, they must be immediately parked off the road, or, where this is impossible, on the outer edge of the road.
11. Stop-overs--Automobiles stopping over at points other than the hotels or permanent camps, must be parked off the road, or where this is impossible, on the outer edge of the road.
12. Reduced engine power--Gasoline, etc.--Due to the high altitude of the park roads, ranging between 4,000 and 7,000 feet, the power of all automobiles is much reduced, so that about 50 per cent more gasoline will be required than for the same distance at lower altitudes. Likewise one lower gear will generally have to be used on grades than would have to be used in other places. A further effect that must be watched is the heating of the engine on long grades, which may become serious unless care is used. Gasoline can be purchased at regular supply stations as per posted notices .
13. Penalties--Violation of any of the foregoing regulations for government of the park will cause revocation of automobile permit, will subject the owner of the automobile to immediate ejectment from the park, and be cause for refusal to issue new automobile permit to the owner without prior sanction in writing from the Secretary of the Interior.
14. Damages--The owners of automobiles will be responsible for any damages caused by accident or otherwise.
15. All persons passing through the park with automobiles are required to stop at the supervisor's headquarters or the rangers headquarters and register their names.
16. Motorcycles--These regulations are also applicable to motorcycles, which may use the roads on payment of a fee of $1 for each machine per annum; permits issued therefor shall expire on December 31 of the year of issue.

So Pete thinks he's a mastermind eh? Not so much. I think hooking up with Abi is the only actual smart thing he's done because she is hated.
Even though I don't normally want a returnee to win, the guys didn't actually get the chance to try to win before so GO PENNER! Altough I'd like to see a Lisa/Penner/Denise finale it probably won't happen.
i had to laugh at Pete being a mastermind
Penner was on two times before, and was actually voted out once (I didn't watch that season - or the season where he was medi-vacced) - BUT I give him props for winning immunity and think a Penner/Denise/Lisa final 3 would be good. I imagine there will have to be someone "evil" in the final 3, though, because the players know they want someone who won't get votes - I just really really hope it is not Abi!!!!
ETA - I did not know Penner was a writer and actor, too - he was nominated for an Academy Award for a short film....

News and Notes
WWE are Happy at how Wrestlemania planned out and are optimistic for the rest of the year.
Don't expect John Cena to be WWE Champion for much longer WWE Believe he has had a decent reign and is likely to lose the Championship at either Unforgiven or Vengeance
Vince is planning on pushing Jeff Hardy from Raw Mr.Kennedy and M.V.P from Smackdown and Elijah Burke and CM Punk on ECW expect these guys to be the future of the WWE
We have also learned that the angle involving Carlito being mentored by Ric Flair has been dropped. Vince isn't that high on Lito and believe that if Flair is to be made a mentor it should be to a guy who is getting pushed
And Finally at the present time the WWE have no interest in bringing Chris Jericho in
No Preview as im a bit busy but il just post the scheduled events

Re: World Wrestling Entertainment 2007
Very nice layout, I am not quite familiar with any of your previous work but this looks to be starting off quite nicely.
I am happy that you are intending on pushing MVP, props to you on that and Raw looks to be good.
WGTT squash Super and Duggan... Umaga to squash Venis, Masters > Cena (one of the four costs him the match), Vince may adress someting concerning the draft, and Shawn to get his rematch.
Best of luck.
