Faced with the prospect of twice the number of meetings per month, the Henderson County Board of Commissioners will consider a staff proposal Jan. 6 that streamlines the process by which the board sets its upcoming agendas.
Faced with the prospect of twice the number of meetings per month, the Henderson County Board of Commissioners will consider a staff proposal Jan. 6 that streamlines the process by which the board sets its upcoming agendas.
The proposal would eliminate the need to hold four open commissioners' meeting per month, which was triggered when Commissioner Grady Hawkins announced Dec. 2 he would be attending all agenda meetings held the Tuesdays before the two official commissioners' meetings.
Previously, those meetings were attended only by the board's chairman and vice chairman in order to set the agenda for the next week's meeting. But Hawkins' attendance at the agenda meetings created a sticky situation for board leaders and for county staff.
"They become a regular commissioners' meeting," said County Manager Steve Wyatt. With three commissioners present, he said, staff is required by state open meetings laws to notify the public in advance because there is a quorum that could potentially take action and vote.
And those public notifications were only part of the "administrative burden" associated with doubling the number of open meetings, Wyatt said, "since anything the board might want to address is fair game. To provide the service to the board that I expect, a lot of staff have to be there."
Those staff members could include the county attorney, finance director, county engineer, planning department officials and "anybody who has anything on the agenda," Wyatt said. "I've heard from staff and people in the community, including members of the media, about how this basically doubles their workload each month."
Hawkins said his desire to attend the agenda meetings arose because on multiple occasions he had to pull "consent" items – typically routine items approved en masse, without debate – out into open discussion. Many of those items merited more rigorous public debate, he said.
But Vice Chairman Tommy Thompson said Hawkins is quibbling over "a very, very small problem," based on "a foundation of mistrust." He pointed out that under current rules, any commissioner has the right to pull items off the consent agenda for discussion during open meetings.
"We need to be practical, we need to continue to get business done and quite frankly, I don't see any problems with the way things are done now," said Thompson. "I don't have a problem with Mr. Hawkins attending the agenda meetings, but the nature of that is going to cause a lot of problems and added expense."
Thompson said holding two extra open meetings per month not only places double the burden on staff, it also creates potential political problems for any commissioner who works full time and can't attend the Tuesday agenda meetings.
"If someone doesn't go, you get into campaigns and somebody is going to accuse them of not attending half the meetings," Thompson said. "It's not a good working solution."
Hawkins said he's suggested to County Attorney Russ Burrell that commissioners eliminate the two agenda meetings altogether, replacing them with a procedure in which county staff formulates the agendas with timely input from commissioners.
"Historically, we didn't have agenda meetings," said Hawkins, referring to his earlier tenure on the board that ended in 2004. "We have a very competent staff that can develop the agenda."
Hawkins said the streamlined process being proposed by staff would set deadlines by which commissioners could suggest agenda items for the following meeting, and even the public could recommend items to the county manager for possible inclusion.
"If the board will follow the timelines that are being proposed, I think it'll work out real fine," said Hawkins.
Chairman Charlie Messer said he doesn't understand what Hawkins' motivation is for attending the agenda meetings, since "if he wants something put on the agenda, all he has to do is come to me."
Messer said he thinks Hawkins is retaliating for losing his bid to elect Commissioner Larry Young as chairman earlier this month.
"It appears that one county commissioner, because he doesn't get what he wants, has a problem with it," Messer said. But he said he's open to working with Wyatt to develop an agenda bimonthly without a meeting if other commissioners agree the proposal is acceptable.
Commissioners will hold what could be their last open agenda meeting at 2 p.m. Tuesday in the Historic Courthouse.

Revision as of 12:24, November 5, 2008
Mobile Menus: Cub Scouts - Scouts BSA - Venturing - Sea Scouts
# List at least five complex carbohydrates and five simple carbohydrates. During a crew meeting (or another activity approved by your Advisor and/or coach), discuss with your crew why complex carbohydrates are nutritionally dense and what that means to a sportsperson. Tell why fiber is considered a complex carbohydrate and list some examples of fiber-rich foods. Serve snacks that represent each carbohydrate. You could even make this a game where people guess which snack went with each group.
- Interview a registered dietician and talk about your favorite sport. Have the dietician help you evaluate and develop a nutritional pro- gram that fits you (and/or your team as a whole) and your sport.
- Make a presentation on "Good Fats" and "Bad Fats." Explain how they affect a teenager's diet. Include in your presentation information on saturated fats, unsaturated fats, hydrogenated fats, and cholesterol. Use posters, overhead transparencies, computer slide shows, charts, and relevant information from your school health text book. Working with your crew, calculate fat needs for yourself and the other members of your crew.
- Keep a three-day food record of everything you eat and drink. If you put it in your mouth, write it down. With the help of a health-care practitioner, determine if you are eating enough protein, vegetables, fat, carbohydrates, and fiber. Also determine the amount of sugar, sodium, and hydrogenated fat consumed. Resources for determining these amounts are available at your local library.
- People who do not eat meat are called vegetarians. Vegetarians can be categorized into three different groups. In a discussion with your Advisor and/or coach, name those three groups and explain their differences and similarities. In an interview with a registered dietician or nutritionist, ask questions about the complete protein requirements of a vegetarian and how they make sure they are achieving these daily requirements. Using this information, put on a presentation, tabletop display, or other such activity approved by your Advisor and/or coach for a Boy Scout troop or Cub Scout pack.
Please report any issues with this page.

I'm new to the forum so apologies if I'm posting in the wrong area or asking a silly question I have read quite a few forum posts but I can't find an answer to my current problem with Atahualpa 3.6.7 running on WordPress 3.2.1
I have created a custom template (page.php) by copying index.php (pretty standard stuff so far) and I have played around with the content. My problem is that I want to create the entire body content dynamically from a second database, resident on the same MySQL server. I have a block of PHP code that I am including but part of that content creates a WP short-code to position a gallery (tag-gallery) and of course, because this is just being output directly WP isn't processing the code in any way so the short-code just displays on the page.
So, I think I need to put the page content into a variable and then pass this to the WP the_content() function to be processed and output. Is this correct ... and how would I go about doing that within Atahualpa? I'm guessing that I can also rip out a lot of the index.php code in my new page.php because it doesn't have to worry about comments, archives and posts - it just has to display a header and the page content that I create from the other DB.
Anyway, sorry for a long first post - I hope someone can point me in the right direction
Thanks, Chris R.

Writer and photographer Sara Terry, founder and President of The Aftermath Project recently announced the recipients of the inaugural "Aftermath Grants," the funding for which was raised in great part by photographers donating their prints to an benefit auction held specifically for this purpose – in other words, photographers helping to support the projects of other photographers. JIM GOLDBERG of the US was awarded $20,000 to continue a story called "The New Europeans." WOLF BOWIG of Germany was awarded $15,000 to continue "The Forgotten Island: Narratives of War in Sierra Leone." The three finalists were ANDREW STANBRIDGE of the US who proposed documenting people affected by the reconstruction in Laos; ASIM RAFIQUI, a Kasmiri photographer living in Sweden proposed documenting the effects of war in his native Kasmir, and PAULA LUTTRINGER, an Argentinean photographer who lives in France proposed a survey of locations in Argentina where mothers of missing children were abducted between 1976 and 1983. The work of all five photographers will appear in a book produced by Mets & Schilt, Aperture and The Aftermath Foundation in the fall of 2007.
The branding for The Aftermath Project includes this important subtitle: WAR IS ONLY HALF THE STORY.
Sara's long-term personal project "AFTERMATH: Bosnia's Long Road to Peace" was published in 2005 and also exists in an excellent website, www.bosniaaftermath.com. One of the things I admire about Sara, and this website, is her strong desire to encourage viewers to learn more about this issue as well as to credit those organizations which have helped her produce the project and continue to broaden awareness about her subject. Support this important project.
As a photographer, being responsible to your SUBJECT is a natural for Sara. Being responsible to her PEERS can be added to that statement, as evidenced by the good work her ground-breaking foundation is doing for photographers.

real good is American English
really good is British English
That's all I know
Student or Learner
Dear teachers,
As we know both "real" and "really" can be used as adverbs. So it is difficult for me to distinguish the two. Could you please explain the difference between the following two sentences?
1. You did a real nice job.
2. It's really a hot day.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Thank you in advance.
real good is American English
really good is British English
That's all I know
The 'real nice job' is OK colloquially, but formally it should be avoided.
Dear tdol,
Thank you very much for your explanation. The problem is that I copied the sentence, I mean the ' real nice job' from a dictionary. That's why I felt confused.

Topic Reporting obligations Insurance undertakings & pension funds
All private and public insurance undertakings which carry on private insurance business within the scope of the Insurance Supervision Act and have their registered office in Germany are subject to supervision either by BaFin or by the supervisory authorities of the Federal States. Pension funds have also been subject to insurance supervision by BaFin under the Act since the beginning of 2002, as have domestic reinsurance undertakings since December 2004.
Supervised insurance undertakings
At present, 567 insurance undertakings and 31 pension funds are supervised by BaFin. Just under 900 undertakings, most of them relatively small, regional mutual insurance associations, are supervised by individual supervisory authorities of the Federal States.
Insurance undertakings having their registered office in another EU member state or in a state party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area (EEA) which conduct business in Germany under the freedom to provide service are primarily subject to supervision by their home country. BaFin does, however, consult the foreign supervisory authority if it identifies breaches of general German legal principles.
Social insurance institutions – i.e. statutory health insurance funds, the statutory pension insurance fund, statutory accident insurance institutions and unemployment insurance – are not subject to supervision under the Insurance Supervision Act. They are regulated by other government agencies, such as the statutory health insurance funds of the Federal Insurance Office (Bundesversicherungsamt).
Division of responsibilities between the Federal Government and the Federal States
Insurance supervision is divided between the Federal Government and the Federal States – in accordance with the federalist system of the Federal Republic of Germany.
BaFin supervises on behalf of the Federal Government those private insurance undertakings operating in Germany which are of material economic and financial significance and public insurance undertakings engaging in open competition which operate across the borders of any Federal State.
The supervisory authorities of the Federal States are mainly responsible for supervising public insurers whose activities are restricted to the particular Federal State in question and those private insurance undertakings which are of lesser economic and financial significance.
BaFin's powers
BaFin has various means at its disposal to take supervisory action against insurance undertakings. Under the Insurance Supervision Act it may issue any instructions that are "appropriate and necessary" in order to prevent or eliminate undesirable developments that threaten to harm the interests of policyholders. One "undesirable development" in particular would be if an undertaking failed to comply with the statutory and supervisory requirements applying to the carrying-on of insurance business. In addition to this general catch-all clause, the Act gives BaFin a number of special powers in order to avert certain typical threats. These special powers are wide-ranging. The supervisory authority may appoint a special commissioner to replace the board of management, supervisory board or other governing bodies of the company. It can even revoke an undertaking's authority to carry on business. BaFin can also conduct ad hoc surveys into, for example, the effects of falling equity prices on undertakings' guarantee assets - so-called stress tests or scenario analyses.
Supervisory Disclosure
BaFin and the the supervisory authorities of the federal states fulfil their disclosure obligations on this page.

(WMC-TV) - Residents in the city of Munford, Tennessee are getting ready for a big homecoming in a little over a week.
A Mid-South soldier nearly killed in combat is about to make his way home for the first time.
Munford Marine Christian Brown says he is a walking miracle.
Known as CB to his friends, he was sprinting from building to building in Afghanistan last December when an IED went off.
He lost both legs, a finger, and had severe burns to his arm.
Seen here walking for the first time since late last year, residents in Brown's hometown of Munford are getting ready for a big homecoming celebration.
"Nothing brings a small community together like Friday night football and Brighton High School was on board with it too," said Munford High Football Booster President Jason Winfield.
On Friday September 28, Corporal Christian Brown will come home for the first time and will be honored at the Munford - Brighton football game.
"He's gonna have a pre-game meal with the football players and we're gonna do a pre-game event where we donate all the money we've raised for him at that time," added Winfield.
So far, Munford football boosters have raised $2,100.
Brighton High school band boosters have also raised money.
But community leaders hope more monies can be raised to help Brown and his family.
"One thing, his mother had to quit her job. She's been by his side since they got him to Germany. She made it there and that was December," said Winfield.
Donations to Christian Brown fund can be made at any First Citizens National Bank.
Pre-game festivities featuring Corporal Brown will take place Friday, September 28, at 6:15 p.m. at the Munford High School football field.
Event organizers say residents who do not normally attend football games are planning to attend this special game to honor a special serviceman.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - For the second year in a row, the MIT women's volleyball team earned a spot on the CoSIDA/ESPN The Magazine Academic All-America Team with junior Alex May receiving Third-Team accolades. The award is the 13th for the program as it ranks third at the Institute in overall selections behind football (25) and men's cross country and track and field (14). Since 1980, MIT has amassed 149 honors, maintaining its position as the leader among Division III programs.
This past season May led the Engineers in kills (457) and ranked second in digs (380) and third in hitting percentage (.201). She was named to the New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) All-Conference First Team while picking up her second NEWMAC Academic All-Conference plaudit. May was voted to the New England Women's Volleyball Association (NEWVA) All-New England First Team and earned American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) All-America Honorable Mention and All-New England honors. A Brain and Cognitive Sciences major, she is a member of the National Honor Society of Collegiate Scholars and is currently doing research on genes that affect the plasticity of the brain in MIT's Nedivi Lab.

NEW YORK, Jan. 9, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue:
Mobile and Alternative Payments in the U.S., 3rd Edition
The mobile payments industry stands at the epicenter of tremendous innovation and change, with market participants introducing a slew of emerging payments solutions—from Square to Google Wallet to Popmoney to Serve to V.me. Thanks to the widespread adoption of smartphones, the consumer audience now has the means to use them; however, they still may not be accustomed to or even well informed about the new topography of the payment landscape.
The industry also serves as a nexus connecting the often competing interests of wireless carriers, phone manufacturers, payments networks, merchant acquirers, card associations, point-of-sale technology providers, nonbanking payment solution providers, banks, and retailers. At stake is the transformation of the consumer wallet—and the control traditional payment players have historically had over it—as well as the possibility of new revenue streams generated by data analytics, advertising, and other value-added products and services, above and beyond merchant payment fee revenue.
Even with mobile payments still in its nascent stage, Packaged Facts expects U.S. remote and point-of-sale mobile payments volume to grow by 275% in 2013, a testament to the impact of current product rollouts and consumer uptake already underway.
Mobile and Alternative Payments in the U.S. provides industry participants with the wealth of analysis and guidance they need to stay abreast of this quickly evolving market. Report coverage includes market sizing and forecast for U.S. mobile payments, as well as a comprehensive evaluation of competitor dynamics:
- Mobile payments strategies employed by the leading U.S. card associations, including American Express' prepaid card innovation and Serve digital platform innovation, Discover Financial Services' alternative payments strategy and PayPal and Google Wallet relationships, MasterCard PayPass and PayPass Wallet Services, and Visa V.me
- Mobile payment solutions developed by Digital Leaders, including online commerce behemoths Amazon, Apple, Google, Facebook, Groupon and PayPal; innovative offline commerce players LevelUp and Square; the Isis Mobile Commerce Network; and retailer mobile payment strategies
- Macro trends shaping the mobile payments landscape, including eCommerce growth, NFC payment growth. bill payment trends, P2P growth and associated metrics, and mobile payment fraud and security issues

Each new opportunity, whether embracing machine learning, IoT, or a cloud migration, seems to bring new development, deployment, and management models. The results are more diverse and federated computing models than any time in our history.

Leavenworth, Pleasant Ridge win while Lady Raiders fall
During every free second she could find, Immaculata point guard Lainey Bell sucked in as much oxygen as possible Friday.
In what resembled more of a track meet than a basketball game, the Lady Raiders hosted Riverside in the teams' first game back from winter break.
Mirroring one another, each squad deployed a full-court press for most of the contest's 40 minutes, meaning Bell was constantly on the move. While the senior did an admirable job trying to keep up with the breakneck action, eventually the pace wore her and the rest of her teammates down.
After holding a slim 25-22 advantage at half, Imac lost 54-47 to the visiting Lady Cyclones.
"I think it got to the point that we were just tired at the end," Imac coach Terry Jordan said. "But besides that, we had open shots from the outside that we missed and being a perimeter-oriented team, that will always hurt."
Following a slow start offensively, the two conference foes found their footing in the second and third quarters. It was the third period that Riverside made its move, outscoring its hosts 19-13 to overtake the lead.
In the fourth, the Lady Cyclones continued to separate from Immaculata and ultimately won by a seven-point margin.
Bell finished the game with 20 points while Kasey Cannon and Ellie Wolk added seven points each. Mary Kate Wolken chipped in six, Danielle Sachse threw in three and Lauren Vardiman had four points.
"Just as I've been all year, Lainey impressed me quite a bit with her leadership," Jordan said. "I think that now, on top of that, she is accepting the challenge of being a scorer and that means great things for us if she continues to do that."
Imac, 2-3, will host Oskaloosa at 6 p.m. Tuesday.
Lady Pioneers take care of SM East
It didn't take long for the Leavenworth girls' basketball team to record its first win of 2013.
In fact, it took just one try.
On Friday, the Lady Pioneers went on the road and squashed Shawnee Mission East 58-42.
"We are slowly putting things together," Leavenworth coach Derek Zeck said. "We played really well inside. Utilizing that inside-out approach we've been talking about we were really able to get the ball inside the paint and take advantage of our size."
The win puts Leavenworth at 4-3.
"Tyler (Johnson), Rachel (Blackburn), Tashia (Jones) all had big games for us offensively," Zeck said. "Defensively, I was really happy with the effort. We held them to just seven points in the third quarter, all from the free throw line. Our depth and athleticism really just wore them down."
The Lady Pioneers will host Olathe South at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday.
Ridge grinds out road victory
Though it didn't come easy nor pretty, Pleasant Ridge girls' basketball coach Mike Koontz ultimately had no argument for his team's first game back.
"We did what we had to do to win," Koontz said. "We gutted out a win, a conference road win and that is all that matters."
In its first game back from the holiday break, the Lady Rams played sloppy according to their coach. Yet despite the rustiness, PR was still able to build a 27-22 advantage after two quarters of play.
That became a 10-point edge in the third quarter and eventually a 48-39 win.
"The defensive pressure wasn't there for us tonight and we fouled way too much, but like I said, a win is a win," Koontz said. "I thought we did a decent job running our offense and getting good looks inside."
Benefiting from that inside focus was Ashten Langley, who racked up 17 points. Beth Doty added seven, Alyssa Crook six and Lauren Zule pitched in four. Jordan Adams, Abby Reed and Kelsey Carpenter all finished with four points.
PR, 4-1, will host McLouth at 6 p.m. Tuesday.

Millburn, New Je...
This is my entry for the project run + play boy challenge- a modern take on back to school attire. I made the letterman jacket from sweatshirt fleece and trim from a thrifted sports wind breaker. The pants are bright and bold with a skinny cut, and the dress shirt is made from subdued yellow stripes. I was pretty happy with the cool, modern twist on a very classic style.
Check it out at project run + play and cast your vote!

From Zone-H.org:09/01/2004
Oracle has released a set of security patches for the Oracle Database and Oracle Application Server that fix a large number of serious security vulnerabilities. The majority of these vulnerabilities can be exploited in all Oracle Applications implementations, therefore, these patches must be applied.
Product: Oracle E-Business Suite
Versions: 11.0.x, 11.5.x
Platforms: All platforms
Risk Level: Critical
Integrigy and other security researchers have discovered a number of critical security vulnerabilities in both the Oracle Database and Oracle Application Server. Since Oracle Applications uses both the database and application server, it is vulnerable to most of these security issues.
The vulnerabilities include buffer overflows, SQL injection issues, and denial of service problems many of which are considered critical since an attacker can effectively gain control over an application or database server without a valid login.
Oracle Applications is especially vulnerable to many of these vulnerabilities since in most implementations anyone on the internal network can log into the database using the well known database account APPLSYSPUB. From an APPLSYSPUB login, any one of the buffer overflows in standard database functions can be exploited to gain access to the operating system or multiple SQL injection flaws can be used to manipulate any data in the database.
All Oracle Applications customers should consider these vulnerabilities extremely high risk and apply the Oracle patches at the earliest possible opportunity. Customers with Internet facing application servers should consider applying these patches as soon as possible.
Patch Priority
In order to provide some guidance for system administrators and DBAs regarding the urgency and priority of these patches, we suggest the following timelines for typical implementations of Oracle Applications --
Internet Accessible:
1- Application Server Patch As soon as possible
2- Database Patch Next scheduled downtime
Non-Internet Accessible:
1- Database Patch Next scheduled downtime
2- Application Server Patch Next scheduled downtime
Large Internal User Community or Sensitive Data:
1- Database Patch As soon as possible
2- Application Server Patch Next scheduled downtime
Application Server Patches
11.5.7 11.5.9 Rapid Install :
Customers who have installed 11.5.7 to 11.5.9 using Rapid Install (not upgraded from prior to 11.5.7) will have Oracle 9iAS 184.108.40.206.2 installed and should apply patch 3835781 to all middle tier web servers.
11.5.7 11.5.9 Upgraded from prior to 11.5.7 :
Oracle 9iAS 184.108.40.206.2 is not installed automatically during an upgrade. Only by following the instructions in Oracle Metalink Note ID 146468.1 is the Oracle Application Server upgraded.
You may check the version of the Oracle Application Server by executing the following command on a middle tier web server
$APACHE_TOP/Apache/bin/httpd -version
1.3.19 = Oracle 9iAS 18.104.22.168.2
1.3.12 or prior = Not Oracle 9iAS 188.8.131.52.2
If Oracle 9iAS 18.104.22.168.2 is installed and you should apply patch 3835781 to all middle tier web servers. Otherwise, Oracle has not released a patch for your version of Oracle Application Server.
11.5.1 11.5.6 Rapid Install or Upgrade :
Most likely Oracle 9iAS 220.127.116.11.2 is not installed. Only by following the instructions in Oracle Metalink Note ID 146468.1 is the Oracle Application Server upgraded.
You may check the version of the Oracle Application Server by executing the following command on a middle tier web server
$APACHE_TOP/Apache/bin/httpd -version
1.3.19 = Oracle 9iAS 126.96.36.199.2
1.3.12 or prior = Not Oracle 9iAS 18.104.22.168.2
If Oracle 9iAS 184.108.40.206.2 is installed and you should apply patch 3835781 to all middle tier web servers. Otherwise, Oracle has not released a patch for your version of Oracle Application Server.
Oracle Application Server 10g :
Some customers may have installed Oracle Application Server 10g (9.0.4) on a separate application server in order to use the latest version of Single Signon, Oracle Portal, or Discoverer. Oracle Applications Server 10g should be patched with either 3828022 (184.108.40.206) or 3828024 (188.8.131.52).
Database Patches :
Apply one of the patches 3811838 (126.96.36.199), 3811887 (220.127.116.11), or 3811906 (184.108.40.206) that is appropriate for your UNIX operating system and database version. These patches are only applied to the database server.
The patches 3835952 (126.96.36.199), 3835963 (184.108.40.206), and 3835964 (184.108.40.206) are not relevant to most Oracle Applications 11i implementations installations. Unless you know that the Apache web server is running as part of the database installation (not a standard installation or configuration), these patches can be ignored.
Patch Testing :
Appropriate testing and backups should be always performed before applying any Oracle patches. Since Oracle has not publicly released details on the exact vulnerabilities fixed in the patches or components modified by the patches, customers must adequately test these patches before applying them to a production environment.
Application Server Patch :
The application server patches only affect the Oracle Web Gateway (modplsql), which is used for core functions and older self-service modules within Oracle Applications. Testing should concentrate on core functions like the signon process, on-line help, workflow, and older self-service modules (you will see /pls/ in the URL).
Database Server Patch :
The database server patches touch many parts of the database from core database functions to database triggers to the database listener (TNS) resolving multiple buffer overflows, SQL injection issues, and denial of service problems. Fortunately, a number of the problems were in less used services like the Context Server and Oracle Spatial. Customers should consider this a minor database upgrade (e.g., 188.8.131.52 to 188.8.131.52) and perform similar testing as for such an upgrade.

Two Hood River residents have an extra two million reasons to be light on their feet during their next hike through the Gorge.
According to Kristen Stallman, Scenic Area coordinator working with ODOT, Art Carroll and Bill Pattison, volunteer representatives for Hood River County literally "did the leg work," which led to $2,109,000 in federal funding secured for construction of a recreation trail linking Hood River County to Troutdale.
Beginning at John B. Yeon State Park continuing east to Moffett Creek, the new Historic Columbia River Highway State Trail project will add a 1.6-mile, 12-foot-wide multi-use ADA-accessible pathway to its existing trail.
Upon completion of this critical "missing link," hikers and cyclists will no longer have to share the shoulder of I-84 with trucks and cars traveling at 65 mph to traverse the west end of the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area.
"The six citizen advisors of the HCRH Advisory Committee, including Carroll and Pattison, spent hours in the field to figure out the best location for the trail. That put a lot of helpful pressure on the agencies to find the funding," said Stallman.
"The historic highway became the forgotten child once I-84 opened up. But there is so much beauty on this side of the river with wildflowers and moss and so much life," said Pattison. "It will be a world-class trail when it is all completed."
Oregon senators Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley, jointly announced the Aug. 18 award of Federal Public Lands Highway Discretionary Funds to support the critical new connecting segment. The advisory group also credits the congressional delegation with supporting the project throughout the funding process.
"Businesses will benefit from the increased accessibility that comes with world-class infrastructure and recreational facilities," said Wyden.
The FPLH funds represent just over 25 percent of the nearly $8 million total project budget which is slated for construction start in February 2012.
"We also received funding from the Oregon Pedestrian Bicycle Program, the Forest Highway Enhancement Program and the Transportation Enhancement Program," said Stallman.
Final costs will be determined once the project goes out to bid.
"Crucially, in the short term, these grants create construction jobs now, all over our state," said Merkley in a press release addressing a total of $14 million in federal transportation funds awarded across the state.
This project will link together sections of the State Trail and the Historic Columbia River Highway creating an uninterrupted scenic corridor connecting the communities of Troutdale, Corbett, Warrendale and Cascade Locks.
"This segment really connects Cascade Locks to, essentially, Portland and that is so important for that community," said Carroll.
Additional on-road connections are also currently available for travelers continuing eastward to Wyeth.
The ODOT-supervised State Trail construction will include a new pedestrian bridge over McCord Creek and extensive retaining wall construction.
The trail will parallel I-84 to the south and cross under I-84 at Moffett Creek to connect with the restored HCRH State Trail.
ODOT anticipates construction will be completed in the summer of 2013.
The trail will be accessible to non-motorized transportation including cyclists, pedestrians and people with disabilities, complementing existing USFS Gorge Trail 400.
Using much of the existing vegetation and topography, the new trail and supporting structures are designed blend into the natural environment.
A 2006 federal appropriation submitted by Congressman Earl Blumenauer secured the $500,000 used to execute the preliminary plans for the project.
"This trail is something that will be here long after we're gone," said Pattison on his reasons for serving as trail committee's chair for the past 12 years. Pattison also served as mayor of Hood River and city councilman.
The HCRH was abandoned and segmented during the construction of I-84. In 1987, the Oregon Legislature directed ODOT to develop a plan to preserve, restore and maintain existing portions of the historic highway and to reconnect missing segments with a state trail.
The goal was to offer recreational opportunities by recreating access to the original historic highway.
The HCRH Advisory Committee and the Friends of the HCRH have jointly spearheaded an effort to restore and reconnect the highway and advocate for the completion of the entire 73-mile State Trail by 2016, the 100th anniversary of the beloved historic highway.
Approximately 11 miles, all within Hood River County, currently still await restoration.
Carroll is finishing eight years of service under the term-limited governor's appointment to the HCRH Advisory Committee this week, becoming an emeritus advisor. Barbara Briggs of Hood River has agreed to become his replacement.
"This was a good way for me, after retirement, to help fulfill the intent of the National Scenic Area Act vision which I believed in," said Carroll, who retired from the U.S. Forest Service as the Area Manager for the National Scenic Area.
New trail segment highlights:
Allows for a 34-mile scenic bike ride between Troutdale and Cascade Locks following along 26 miles of the drivable historic highway and 8 miles on the State Trail
Incorporates a picnic and rest area with restored views of Beacon Rock
Connects to U.S. Forest Service Trail 400 with an opportunity to hike to Elowah Falls
Takes advantage of the existing trailhead at John B. Yeon State Park
Provides access from the west to the historic Moffett Creek Bridge and the HCRH State Trail to Cascade Locks
Provides another ADA-accessible section of the trail for hikers
More regional trail funding news:
According to Pattison, additional State Trail-related funding has also been received to build a half-mile trail segment connecting the Starvation Creek Falls I-84 rest area westward to Hole-in-the-wall Falls.
This $1 million trail will be paid for by Forest Highway Enhancement of Western Federal Lands funds and will create a half-mile addition connecting to the existing mile-long trail running eastward to Viento State Park. Construction will begin in early spring 2013.
The new trail will traverse by a hidden falls called Cabin Creek Falls and provide a view of the baking ovens used to feed the Union Pacific Railroad construction crews in the late 1870s.
Another $72,000 in Federal Department of Transportation funding has been awarded to establish gateway signs and a rest area in the eastern segment of the HCRH. This project will help define the Mosier and The Dalles entrances to the eastern segment of the HCRH.
Phase I of a proposed Mosier "hub" will include a stone monument sign identifying the beginning of the National Scenic Byway, and a site plan for a multi-modal rest area to be developed.
The Dalles gateway sign will be a stone monument that will identify the eastern entrance of the byway adjacent to the Chenoweth Creek Bridge.

While Ray Rice continued to bask in the glow of his 29-yard, catch-and-run on fourth-and-29 against the San Diego Chargers, quarterback Joe Flacco admitted that he didn't do any reflecting on the play and he didn't plan to.
"We got away with one and I'll be glad. I could have looked like a big-time idiot if we don't get that play," Flacco said. "I kind of went out on a limb there to check the ball down on fourth-and-29. We don't get that, everybody is crushing me: 'What the hell is he doing checking the ball down on fourth-and-29?' I don't think that will ever happen again in the time that I play and it gets converted, especially on a check down like that. I am just happy it happened."
Rice said that he said that watched a replay of the conversion a few times and it will probably go down, along with his 83-yard touchdown run against the New England Patriots in the playoffs, as one of his favorite plays when his career is over.
"It was actually remarkable to see our defense," Rice said. "This is the funniest thing: When I got back on the plane, the defense said when Joe checked it down, the defense was like, 'What the heck are we doing?' Next thing you see is the whole sideline going, 'Go! Go! Go!' I had my best friend's mom tell me she turned off the game and said, 'Oh, "Walking Dead" is on, and then came to find out we won the game. It was one of those moments where you realize you did something special and now it's something I can live with."

The Manchester City fan who ran on to the pitch and tried to confront Rio Ferdinand in Sunday's derby match has apologised, his solicitors have said.
Matthew Stott, 21, had to be restrained by City keeper Joe Hart and was arrested following Robin van Persie's late winner at the Etihad Stadium. He was subsequently charged with pitch encroachment.
Speaking through his solicitors Stephen Lickrish & Associates he confessed his guilt - and said sorry to the Manchester United defender.
In a statement, the landscape gardener, from Knutsford, said: "I would like to apologise to all those affected by my actions yesterday, particularly Mr Ferdinand and the other players. I am extremely ashamed of my actions. I have let myself down, my family down, my fellow fans down and Manchester City Football Club.
"I intend to write personally to Mr Ferdinand to express my extreme regret and apologies and also apologise to Manchester United and their fans. I would like to thank Joe Hart for his actions when I came on the pitch.
"I have been a fan of Manchester City Football Club all my life and I have been a season ticket holder for three years and I attend the games with my father. I have had the same seat in the section next to the away fans for those three years."
Rebecca Caulfield, solicitor at Stephen Lickrish & Associates, is representing Stott. She said: "He has never been to court before and has never been in trouble with any of the stewards at Manchester City Football Club before, or at any other ground. He is extremely remorseful and is mortified by his behaviour, which is completely out of character. Mr Stott will accept the consequences of his actions."
In total, nine people have been charged in connection with trouble at the derby. Trouble flared after Manchester United's last-gasp winner in their 3-2 Premier League away victory when Ferdinand was hit above the left eye by a two-pence coin thrown from the crowd as the team celebrated.
Police are continuing to work with City to identify the offender who threw the coin at Ferdinand, a police spokesman said.
Chief Inspector Steve Howard added: "To have just 13 arrests for a crowd of this size and a match of this proportion is a testament to the policing operation we put in place. Despite fierce rivalry and high tension there was no major disorder. However, we will continue to investigate the coin-throwing incident and are determined to work with the club to bring the perpetrator to justice."
