Not too long ago I wrote a brief post about the purported nun-vatican standoff in the immediate aftermath of Cardinal Levada's NCR interview. Other than throwing in my two cents that our tendency to cast "sides" in this issue will only prove damaging in the long-run, I was mostly silent on my own thoughts on the matter.
As many others have already observed, and even Levada has urged people to remember, the Church moves slow. Like took 1900 years to infallibly proclaim teachings the Church had always held to be true slow. So it is no surprise that the media (both ecclesial and secular) coverage of the tensions, conflict, loving challenge, confrontation, full-on attack, or whatever you want to call it between the CDF and LCWR leadership has come in an ebb-and-flow manner. Over the past few days, however, it seems that we're back in a rush of coverage, assumptions, and less-than-charitable chiming in from viewers at home. And, yesterday, I came upon a blog post that hit so wonderfully to the heart of the matter that it made me want to affirm her conclusions and throw in my own voice as well.
The post comes from Sr. Susan, a sister of St. Joseph of Peace, who has a fabulous and comprehensive blog, Musings of a Discerning Woman, that captures her journey from maybe-discerner, through the trying novitiate years, and now as a temporary professed. The whole post can be found here, but I'll quote some of the highlights as I meander my way to a point.
To provide some background, Sr. Susan's community is a part of the majority that belong to the LCWR, she is considered a young religious (aka under 40), and has a great investment in thinking about what it means to be a new sister in aging communities with so much experience and wisdom. So if anyone should have a stake in the current Vatican-LCWR talks, and if anyone has a right to sound off about their frustration and confusion in the matter, it would be her. What I love and respect about Sr. Susan, though, is that in a move that speaks to her true character and love of her vocation, she has remained largely silent on the matter. As she reminds readers,
In my world of course, one of the biggest happenings of late has been the recent hullabaloo between the men who make up the hierarchy of the Roman Catholic Church and the women called to leadership of religious communities like my own. Regular readers of the blog will know that I've not written much here about that situation here, mostly because I want to respect the process and place my trust in our leadership and the Holy Spirit.
Read that last part again. It's beautiful – I want to respect the process and place my trust in our leadership and the Holy Spirit. And I think she hits it right on the head.
No matter which way you try to spin it, this is a painful process. Even without all of the media hype, twitter name-calling, and uninformed op-eds that have appeared in its wake.
It's painful for the bishops and Vatican officials because the general assumption seems to be that their primary motivation is anything but love and genuine pastoral concern. At best, they seem to be accused of clinging to out-dated tradition and set of expectations for women; at worst, they are misogynistic, anti-poor, abortion-obsessed, controlling, and threatened male hierarchy trying to hold onto whatever power they may have left.
It's painful for the LCWR communities because they have been homogenized, villianized, victimized, manipulated, misunderstood, misquoted, and politicized. It's painful because it's hard to not feel personally attacked and under-appreciated when the constitutions by which you live your life and pledge your whole self are being questioned and picked apart. And it's painful because all of this has been played out on a national stage, making them symbols of an ecclesial revolution that I would venture to say most are not interested in fighting.
Finally, it's painful for onlookers, Catholics and non-Catholics alike, because we've allowed this issue to bring out the worst in us. No matter where we find ourselves on the spectrum of support, I think it's fair to say that most of us have made comments (or read and condone online comments) that do no honor to Christ by disrespecting his brides. This was called out for what is beautifully in a recent Facebook post on Fr. James Martin's public figure page (I suppose I don't know for sure if this is associated with him or not, but it was brilliant nonetheless).
Earlier I posted a profile about Sister Pat Farrell, OSF, the current president of the Leadership Conference of Women Religious. David Gibson's article for Religion News Service focused on her work for the Church, and with the poor, in Central America over the last 30 years, often in situations of great danger. How is it possible that, within a few minutes, I had to delete so many ad hominem comments about Sister Pat, which critiqued her for not being a "good Catholic"? Have people no sense of perspective any longer? If not, I have an idea: If you'd like to criticize Sister Pat for not being a good Catholic, as some did, then I would suggest that you do the following: First, spend some time working with the poor in San Antonio. Then, spend six years working with the poor in Chile during an oppressive and violent political regime. You'll be working in a Catholic parish in a small town in the desert, by the way. Next, move to El Salvador, where you will be in danger of being killed for working for the Catholic Church. That is, put your life on the line every single day for Jesus Christ and for the Catholic Church. At one point during your almost twenty years there, work in a refugee camp, run by the church, that is the target of military raids. Do all of this, by the way, while living under vows of poverty, chastity and obedience; living far from your home country; and having nothing to call your own. Then feel free to come back and post a comment on this Facebook page about what a bad Catholic she is.
Ok, so it definitely can be read with some passive-aggressive undertones, but it gets to the point. And at the end of the day, I think it's this: the LCWR is and remains a canonical body of the Church, and inasmuch, it is absolutely acceptable that it's teachings, publications, governing statutes, formation statutes, and public image be examined and adjusted if necessary. In fact, it is the bishops' vocations and pastoral duties to do so. What is not acceptable, is when we make the leap from questionable teaching to questionable people. Everyone is prone to error, misjudgment, and sin. The LCWR leadership is no exception, but neither are the men who make up the CDF, the CMSWR leadership, or any of us. The Church doesn't ask us to forget our conscious and automatically submit to her teachings. No, what she asks us to do requires more simplicity, humility, and trust. When we don't agree or don't understand, she simply tells us, that's ok. You still belong. Just keep learning, keep searching, and keeping opening yourself to my Truth. (See here for an interesting article on "legitimate diversity of opinion.")
Yes, there are times that the LCWR has, in my opinion, publically strayed from official Church teaching, and as a body that carries the heavy burden of publically representing the Church to others and the world, that's a problem that should, and is hopefully being corrected. But while the missteps are so small, they are unfortunately being judged by them. But it's what these women are doing right that should be the real story here!
As Sr. Susan puts it,
Over the past 40 years, many women religious have lived and ministered with people on the margins of society, whether that is with AIDS patients or homeless urban Native Americans, with children with multiple disabilities or families without health insurance. We have a saying in our community that wherever one of our Sisters is, we are all there. So while I have not had these ministry experiences, my Sisters have, and this in turn has informed our shared experience of life as followers of Jesus who pay special attention to the "little ones."
Yes. We can talk all day about what makes up the "essentials" of religious life – habits, type of dwelling, size of community, horarium, daily mass, line of work, you name it. But the problem comes in as soon as we start delegitimizing someone else's expression of it. Oh, there are some nonnegotiables – Catholic Religious Life implies communion with the Catholic Church and then there are the evangelical counsels – but beyond that, "authentic" religious life can be open to individualized expression.
And located within this, I would argue, is the real tension of what's going on, and I would put it this way: The Vatican should rightly facilitate the alignment of the essentials of religious life. Women religious should rightly protect their communities' unique charisms and expressions of religious life. Some within the Vatican hierarchy are redefining the essentials to include these individual expressions and are thus overstepping bounds of control. Some within LCWR religious communities are redefining individual expressions to include the essentials and are thus interpret this through a lens of violence, and the media's leaving no room for anything but the extreme.
Both are off the mark, but both speak to very real pain and confusion. So what's the answer? I would say that as a starting point, all parties involved should define the terms, work towards establishing a common language, and stop with the polarizations. But even as I say that, I have to believe that those truly invested and at the center of this issue are already doing just that. So maybe it's just something the rest of us need to get on board with too?
Obviously, this is a difficult issue to discuss and write about. As a lay woman, I know that my concern and investment only goes so far, but as someone who has discerned Religious Life and has spent a great deal of time breaking down stereotypes and building relationships with women religious of all flavors, this is something that matters deeply to me. I'd like to close with Sr. Susan's closing thoughts and call to prayer:
Please join me in praying for our Church, for the Bishops appointed by Rome to engage with LCWR, for the women in leadership who will meet in St Louis next week, and for all of God's people. That we may learn to follow Jesus with integrity and love, open to the call and presence of the Holy Spirit, living the good news in service of God and all of God's people, especially the most vulnerable.

The Cholsey 1000 Plus and the Cholsey Community Development Trust are considering holding an event on New Year's Eve this year, but want to get some feedback from the village on whether they would participate and if so what they want from the event.
New Year's Eve events have historically been avoided in the past because people tend to have their own traditions or favourite ways of celebrating. If there is sufficient interest then the Committee and the Trust will explore the options for holding an event. If there is no interest then other Winter dates may be considered.
If you have thoughts on the type of entertainment that would make the event a success then please let the Committee and Trust know.

Sprinter Sacre could have been excused for thinking he had been dropped off at the wrong stable when he arrived back at Seven Barrows, in Lambourn, on Sunday. The champion two-mile chaser's irregular heartbeat that caused him to be pulled up at Kempton on Friday had disappeared and he had been sent home from a Newmarket veterinary practice to await further tests.
"The whole place is different from Saturday when he left," trainer Nicky Henderson reported. "Sprinter's heart has self-righted and that is humungous progress, plus Bobs Worth is back, having fought like a terrier to win the Lexus. There is a very different feeling at Seven Barrows today."
"It's fantastic news because that means that we don't have to use the drug that is usually the first step in these cases; a drug that is highly toxic with side effects and considerable risks. Sprinter Sacre will be given gentle exercise for a couple of days, and on Friday Celia Marr, the equine cardiologist at Rossdales, will be here with heart monitors."
"People are asking why it happened Well, in Celia's opinion, elite athletes invariably have big hearts, and this brings problems. There is more muscle around their heart, but
there are lots of things we can do to help him."
Henderson believes that if everything goes well that there is still a chance Sprinter Sacre could be trained for the Cheltenham Festival, although all would depend on the results of tests later in the week.
On Saturday, Bobs Worth bounced back to his best in the Lexus Chase, leaving behind his poor run in the Betfair Chase. "It was a dreadful run at Haydock, and none of us could have been optimistic after that. We were hoping he would just show us something of the old Bob," said Henderson.
"He's back here now, He lives in the indoor school. He is the archetypal workman, but he is a real star." Bobs Worth is a 60-40 chance to go straight to the Gold Cup.

We always have time for a game like Micro Machines.
It's a fun game with an old-school look and feel, which shouldn't be too surprising given its roots. It packs in an admirably toy-ish ambience with plenty of smooth animations.
At launch, one is invited into the tabletop worlds, and gets some basics.
Next, it's time to assemble the car using the provided parts; this isn't too complex, as it involves dragging the components into their logical place. Then it's time to race.
Racing is definitely where the fun is at. As a player, your car gets dropped onto one of the aforementioned tabletop tracks, and the biggest objective is steering. This is done with the virtual buttons on either side of the screen, which take a touch or two to get used to (be careful; don't oversteer!), but is effective. There are several ways to sabatoge oneself, so it pays to be careful.
There are three modes to pick from: random, race and battle. The first race I got into was basic: player vs 3 game UI cars, make it to the finish line first. Nitro, gold coins and gems to collect.
After the initial race (and earning some valuable gems), you can then procure a pack, which contains car parts and a mystery prize. Extra pieces become spares which are good for future trades.
After that first, get-your-feet race, the action ratchets up even further. One can choose do do some battle, taking on opponents with weapons, kind of like a demolition derby. Eventually, better virtual hardware might be needed — hence the packs — and one can use the collected coins to improve the attributes of the vehicle, with gems having the ability too speed things up. Then, after a car has been improved, one can then add mods to be more effective in battle.
The game incorporates league play for bragging rights; there is a rent-a-car system, boosts and more — keep a lookout for some interesting Hasbro nods further on
Micro Machines is a bit more than just a blast from the past, even if it does that very well. It manages to be fun and challenging at the same time, melding battling with straight racing. It doesn't get overly complex, and the multiplayer function makes it a whole lot easier to get addicted to.

Each piece is accompanied by exclusive and singable music that after the theater play the audience still has in the ear.
Our theater campaign on the prevention of HIV, and other sexual transmitted infections and unwanted pregnancies was introduced by the Government of the Canary Islands in the project "PRETEA". So we presented our campaign in all schools of the seven Canary Islands. With a full acceptance of 99% of parents, teachers and students, this is statistically proofed.

Must Anne Arundel County Grow? Part 2
by William N. Papian
Some growth and development is inevitable, I argued in this space on March 12-18, that growth can be managed, limited and contained by the judicious use of a county's zoning regulations. Now appears to be the opportune time to overhaul those regulations with an eye to improving their usefulness for managing growth and development in Anne Arundel County.
Today I want to stir the pot with an interesting but not yet well-known fact that bears importantly on this issue:
Residential growth and development in the average county does not pay for itself. On the contrary, growth costs taxpayers more than it ever returns in revenues. As this fact sinks in, more and more people are understanding the need to manage growth, using the best tools available, the zoning codes.
But several problems with our zoning regulations require exposure, debate and legislative revision. One is the issue of grandfathering old residential subdivisions, a practice that allows old subdivisions (or portions of them) to be developed under the zoning standards - if any - in place when those lands were platted many years ago. No zoning regulations existed before 1953, and some passed since then are outdated.
The policy question can be put quite simply: Should Anne Arundel County continue to allow the development of old parcels of land under long outdated zoning standards?
Many citizens would say "No."
Yet a recent draft revision of Anne Arundel's Subdivision Article grandfathers any "lot or parcel created: (I) prior to July 1, 1953 or; (II) on or after July 1, 1953 in conformance with the law in effect at the time the lot or parcel was created or; (III) on or after July 1, 1953 in conformance or recognized in compliance with the policies and zoning laws in effect at the time of its creation."
Grandfathering isn't a black or white issue. For example, it would be both unfair and illegal to require the owner of an undersized single lot or parcel in one of those ancient subdivisions to conform to today's standards, because that requirement would make the lot useless. Language changes can be carefully crafted to allow for reasonable exceptions yet not allow unreasonable ones as the present language does. The waiver process is one possible approach; there are others.
In most cases, requiring that an ancient residential subdivision (or parts of it) be developed in accordance with up-to-date regulations would mean fewer houses on larger lots, with accompanying higher prices. The requirement would not make that subdivision portion economically useless; far from it.
Almost needless to repeat, proper zoning regulations are tools for managing growth; they've been used for that purpose for many years, and their judicious use can continue to benefit our county.
To that end, it is well past sunset time for grandfathering!

Take into account populace if you are getting auto insurance. The populace where your vehicle is covered will significantly affect your rate for your good or damaging. Spots with a greater population, like huge towns, can have a much greater insurance policy speed than suburban locations. Rural places often pay the minimum.
Although easy, the ideas mentioned above could save 100s and 1000s of dollars annually on pricey vehicle insurance monthly payments. The point is, take your time and determine your charges carefully. Get ahead of the contour and be prepared for what you will need to shell out even before you visit buy your vehicle. Knowledge and research is the key to keeping.
Keep your insurance policy kept up to date with who is definitely driving your car. Plenty of mom and dad forget to use their kids off of their insurance plan despite they may have moved out and become coverage that belongs to them. The better motorists on your policy the better you happen to be paying out so make sure and keep it up-to-date.
Check out level savings in case you are a student. Several insurance firms supply rate reductions for students who do very well in school, so find out if yours does. Deliver your transcript by to show off your marks, and you might be rewarded by using a wonderful discounted. Good grades present the insurance company that you are accountable.
Auto insurance is available from most companies which is frequently difficult to know the one that is definitely the right one for yourself. Several hours of considerable research and reading through show to be helpful in determining the organization that meets your needs and your vehicle. The ideas under work as helping recommendations to help you while searching for that ideal vehicle insurance.
Never just believe that an insurance company is certainly going to deal with your declare and look after it pretty. You should remain really involved and established times to follow with your organization. You might want to be the squeaky wheel in order to get your claim settled.
When you are a youthful driver who will be hit with more insurance plan costs as a result of your actual age, don't be concerned an excessive amount of. Many organizations employ a "very good university student" discount. This simply means in case you have higher than a particular GPA and carry within your transcripts you can acquire a price reduction, often a really substantial 1. Ensure to not forget about this opportunity.

The North Carolina Housing Finance Agency provides homeowners in North Carolina that have lost their job a chance of avoiding foreclosure through a low-cost loan. Learn how this loan can help you recover from a financial setback and save your home from foreclosure.
The Program.
The Home Protection Program is open to all eligible North Carolina homeowners that lose their job. The program provides borrowers with a loan of up to $24,000 to cover mortgage payments and related expenses, such as insurance, tax and maintenance costs. The major attraction of this loan is that you do not have to pay for it until 15 years have passed , or you sell or refinance your mortgage the property.
There are three main ways this loan can help you. First, the Housing Finance Agency can offer you a one-time loan to cure the default on your mortgage. Second, you can get help while you try to find another job. Thirdly, long-term help is provided while you join a retraining program.
How it works.
If you apply for the Home Protection Program and you are accepted, the North Carolina Housing Finance Agency will put a 120-day stay on your foreclosure. This will stop your lender from selling your property. Once you receive the loan, the Housing Agency will use the money to cover the default on your mortgage. However, notice you will not receive the money. The housing agency will pay for your mortgage directly to your lender. Once all the money is used to pay for your mortgage you will continue making the payments.
The Requirements
To qualify for a Home Protection Program you must have lost your job, or at least suffered a 50 percent reduction of your income during at least two months in the last 2 years. Of course, the job loss must be through no fault of your own. In other words, you will not qualify if you were fired for stealing. Your mortgage must be secured on a real estate property located in North Carolina and is your principal residence. It is also important to have a good mortgage payment history before you lost your employment.
This program has, up to now, helped over 500 families with financial aid, and over 5,000 homeowners with housing counseling.
How to apply?
You must apply through a participating housing agency in North Carolina. For more information on the criteria the agency will use to assess your application click here. If you think you qualify for this program, act quickly. If you wait too long, you could miss this chance of a new financial start.

The Hidden Benefits Of Outsourcing Traffic
It's the specter of every webmaster: a never-ending fire hose of traffic. Why is this so hard to achieve? Well cupcake, for one, getting traffic to your site is a skill. In fact, it's an entire business. A business that you're trying to do all by yourself - that's why you think it's so hard. You're trying to do two things at once. You're trying to run your own business as well as a "side business." Guess what? Usually, that's a recipe for disaster. Fortunately, there's a solution for that: outsourcing.
You're Hiring Experts
When you outsource your traffic generation to another company, you're basically creating a marketing department for your company. No, they aren't employees as a matter of law, but they "yours" as a practical matter. They will answer to you, provide you with all of the data analysis you'd get from an employee working the same position, and they will also be motivated to help your company succeed (after all, your failure means they have less money in their bank account).
These people are probably also experts - if they're not, they won't be in business for very long. Being experts, they're going to know a lot more than you about traffic generation, which is OK because that isn't your specialty anyway.
You Can Focus On Improving Your Writing
Once you've outsourced your traffic generation needs, you can focus on other important stuff like writing. Good content (especially creative content) is incredibly hard to produce. It's something that's difficult to outsource. Sure, you can hire someone for pennies at a content mill to churn out articles all day long for you, but let's get real. Those articles aren't going to turn any heads. Well, maybe they will turn heads, but not in the direction you want them to turn.
Writing is the one skill that everyone needs to be good at. When you improve your writing, you can better explain your product or service offering, and that's what leads to more sales. Speaking of sales...
You Can Focus On Improving Your Product or Service
Improving your product or service offering is something that probably only you can do. The more time you spend doing this, the better. Remember, people aren't out there to buy lame, unimaginative, products and services. They don't need "just another plumber," or SEO expert, or caterer, or painter, or whatever it is that you do. They don't want to go to just another bar, restaurant, or gym. They want something that they need and something they've never seen before. Focus on making your product or service different from others in your industry, and you'll quickly stop worrying about things like doing your own traffic generation.
You Can "Set It, and Forget It"
One of the best benefits of outsourcing is that it's going to boost traffic to your site while you take a mostly hands-off approach. The idea of "set it, and forget it" seems kind of cliche, but this sort of thing happens all the time in every other normal business on the face of the planet. How many CEOs of large corporations do you know sit down to do HR work, accounting and bookkeeping, or spend their days doing janitorial work? None. There's a reason for that. Successful companies make extensive use of the old division of labor concept. You rarely hear about failed one-man or two-man operations, but part of their failure often lies in the fact that they spent too much time on tasks that didn't earn them any real money and not enough time doing what they're really good at. Don't make that same mistake.

A thriving vehicle driven by todays black youth. Despite what people think the future is bright for the race of African Americans. If one thinks about how fast a come up we have made, one would see that the possibilities of a completely and seemlessly integrated society is not far away. Instead thinking of all the negatives, all cultures need to look at Blacks and see a race of people who 50 years ago had no civil rights, not to mention that our first 400 or so years in the Western World were spent in chains. Just think for a second. Black culture in America was established and continued for almost a half-millenium in bondage. We have been free from slavery for only 140 years. Just imagine if we'd been free as long as we were slaves. Yet our incredible progress gets overshadowed by the fact that we have the highest number of inmates in prison and other negative things like that. What's funny is that I hear mostly blacks spew out these statistics. We as blacks need to not only embrace our roots but embrage our incredible progress.

Hyundai has offered an insight into its future product plans, including the creation of a dual-cab 4x4 ute aimed at bestsellers including the Toyota HiLux and Ford Ranger.
The South Korean car maker has revealed that the project, different to the SUV-based Santa Cruz concept (pictured top and below) has been moved from its wish list to its to-do list, with the assignment of a production code, a step that sees the project gathering momentum within the company.
Hyundai hasn't confirmed how much further down the development pipeline the ute project has travelled, but Hyundai Australia's Chief Operating Officer, Scott Grant, told Australian media this week that a future ute is set be become a key model in the company's future product plans.
"It's being planned, it's being prepared," the local COO said of the Hyundai ute.
"I do know that HMC [Hyundai Motor Company] is taking it very seriously and there's a model code allocated to it and there's some work under way, but what the time frames are as far as I'm aware there's no commitment.
"But we're desperate for it, no question."
Before the un-named, infantile ute steps closer to reality, Grant has flagged an "unprecedented" level of new product launches to come from the South Korean brand over the next 18 months, with around 10 all-new models set to launch locally before the end of 2018.
"There will be a lot of activity in the next 12 to 18 months, an unprecedented level of product investment and activity," he started.
"This year we have a substantial change to the Sonata which is coming in about May - pretty much right behind the i30. Later in the year we have a baby SUV codenamed OS that we're excited about.
"Then as we turn into next year we have new Veloster, new Santa Fe, [and] somewhere in that mix we have Ioniq. There are other products after that, so there is quite a heavy product plan and a lot of those are all-new products, not just a minor change but a major change."
Ahead of the arrival of the new third-generation i30 in May, a facelift to the Hyundai Genesis sedan will arrive along with a name-change to the Genesis G80. The Sonata will receive an extensive mid-life upgrade mid-year, at about the same time as Hyundai's first small SUV debuts globally ahead of its late-2017 local introduction.
It will be a sporty end to the year for Hyundai Australia with the i30 N hot hatch - with 183kW and 200kW 2.0-litre turbo power, a manual transmission and mechanical limited-slip differential - and the BMW 3 Series-rivalling Genesis G70 expected before Christmas.
"It's really important because it demonstrates the company's capability to develop that kind of product and it's i30 N today and other N products tomorrow," Grant said of the Hyundai hot hatchback's introduction.
Although it won't form part of the N performance range, the G70 medium sedan will likely debut in Australia with a 3.3-litre twin-turbocharged V6 driving the rear wheels - as Hyundai's more premium answer to the well-received Kia Stinger GT unveiled at the Detroit motor show in January.
Asked if an N-badged performance SUV model would follow the i30 N, the local COO replied: "It's planned to do that, but I haven't got any detail on it."
"It's obviously something that Australians have an interest in," he added, before hinting that with the next-generation Santa Fe large SUV due in 2018, "A sporty version is probably an opportunity for us."
Development for the next Santa Fe is expected to run alongside that of the second generation of Hyundai's bold two-plus-one-door Veloster coupe. Both will debut globally next year ahead of an Australian introduction expected in late 2018, at which time the i30 wagon and 'fastback' are due - although Grant confirmed they are not yet slated for local debut, unlike the large SUV and quirky sports model that will come to our shores.
Earlier in 2018, however, Hyundai Australia will finally access its Ioniq small liftback with a trio of hybrid, plug-in hybrid and electric versions expected.

A house in the small town of York, Alabama, USA, has been designed to fold open to provide seating for an open-air performance space for stage productions and music
Sections of the structure, designed by architectural artist Matthew Mazzotta, are hinged and unfold to reveal rows of seating inside the walls and under the roof.
Community organisation Coleman Center for the Arts and local residents teamed up with Mazzotta to demolish a derelict house in the middle of the town and re-use its materials and site for a new public space – an amenity lacking locally.
"Public space is an important element for the social and political health of a community," Mazzotta said. "If there is nowhere for people to come together and talk, except for the grocery store,
then the conversations about the town are much less dynamic and inclusive."
The original derelict building was a local eyesore until its materials were salvaged and put to use. The remains of the house were then destroyed by firefighters.
