Unfinished business: Chesapeake, McClendon real estate developments incomplete as company leadership changes
An exposed steel frame rises out of Chesapeake Energy CEO Aubrey McClendon's unfinished wine cellar like the skeleton of a beached whale laid out in the middle of the Manor Hill neighborhood at NW 68 and Classen Boulevard.
McClendon personally purchased an office building and at least one house to make way for the wine cellar in 2006 and 2007, but construction stalled after the site was cleared, the concrete foundation was poured and ark-like steel eves were erected in 2008. Stacks of unused building materials, including rusting metal beams still clutter the site.
"I think it's an eyesore," said Manor Hill resident Linda Ross, who lives two doors down from the back side of the incomplete wine cellar. "All of the building materials are just sitting there rotting. I don't appreciate Aubrey just leaving it there half finished."
Like the wine cellar, much of McClendon's grand vision for Chesapeake Energy's campus and ancillary development will be incomplete when he leaves the company he co-founded April 1 in the wake of a boardroom shake up.
Chesapeake Energy Corp.'s real estate timeline
1989: Aubrey McClendon and Tom Ward start Chesapeake Energy. They pay $240,000 for a single 6,000-square-foot office building in 1989 at the office park known as "Three Chopt Square," 6200 N Western Ave. Over the next few years the company buys the entire office park for its headquarters.
1997: Chesapeake Energy buys adjacent land for expansion.
2000: Chesapeake Energy begins building new, Georgian style brick buildings as it continues headquarters expansion.
Early 2000s: Chesapeake Energy begins buying nearby office and warehouse properties.
2005: Chesapeake Energy and its affiliates begin to buy retail properties, including Glenbook Centre, 1140 NW 63, for $8.5 million.
2006: Chesapeake Energy buys Nichols Hills Plaza for $27.5 million. When asked about talk of Nichols Hills Plaza being turned into "another Utica Square" — the popular Tulsa retail-restaurant center — Executive Vice President Tom Price Jr. responds Chesapeake is an oil and gas company, first and foremost, and not a real estate developer. That same year the company buys Metro Center, 6418 N Western, a retail and office complex home to the upscale Metro restaurant, for $1.85 million.
2008: Deep Fork Acquisition, a company sharing the same post office box with Chesapeake Land Development, buys Deep Fork Restaurant, 5418 N Western, for $4.5 million. The property previously sold for $775,000 in 2000. Chesapeake buys a 2,000-square-foot Shell station at 6405 N Western built in 1969 for $3 million. McClendon also begins approaching upscale retailers about moving into a planned upscale shopping center, Classen Curve, that the company sought to build at Classen and Grand Boulevards.
2010: Classen Curve opens. Whole Foods confirms it will anchor a second shopping center, Triangle, that Chesapeake Energy will build just north of Classen Curve.
2011: Crescent Market, a 122-year-old grocery at Nichols Hills Plaza, closes and the owner blames its demise on a $6,000 per month rent increase by landlord Chesapeake. The company announces plans to open its own grocery in the same spot. The adjoining Nichols Hills Drugstore closes its lunch counter and moves into a smaller storefront after being assured by Chesapeake the pharmacy will be included in the new grocery.
2013: Nichols Hills Drugstore leaves Nichols Hills Plaza. The grocery and other commercial projects are left in doubt as McClendon is set to leave Chesapeake Energy on April 1.
STEVE LACKMEYER AND BRIANNA BAILEY, Business Writers
A review of court records, speech transcripts, and planning documents by The Oklahoman show a vision that went far beyond the headquarters.
Chesapeake's plans for the area around its campus included company-owned shopping centers, a hotel, high-end condominiums and a chain of modern convenience stores dubbed "Peake" that would feature pumps with compressed natural gas.
That vision, far from complete, would have complemented a corporate headquarters that features such amenities as a 2.5-acre community garden, a 72,000 square-foot fitness center and a $10-million, 63,000 square-foot employee child care center topped with a steel-tube sculpture spelling the word "Hi."
Although Chesapeake has said it is slashing costs and selling billions of dollars in assets in the face of a bearish natural gas market and a board shake up, the company has remained mum about its plans for the hundreds of millions of dollars of real estate it owns in Oklahoma City or for several development projects in various stages of completion.
Chesapeake Energy officials declined to comment on its future real estate development plans to The Oklahoman.
CEO drove vision
Much of Chesapeake's land development activities have been intertwined with its charismatic CEO since McClendon co-founded the company in 1989 with Tom Ward, now CEO at SandRidge Energy Inc.
McClendon modeled Chesapeake Energy's original signature red brick five-story buildings on a university-style setting — one he said he hoped would create a comfortable arrival for younger hires. By the early 2000s, McClendon's interest in real estate evolved from the campus itself to nearby properties — many of which were bought at prices far above market value.
The Chesapeake-owned Nichols Hills Plaza shopping center is on the same street as the company's headquarters, and less than a mile from McClendon's Hills home.
The company's $27.5 million purchase of Nichols Hills Plaza, $215 per square foot in 2006, was described as "phenomenal" at the time by retail property specialist Mary Grace of Grace Commercial Real Estate.
McClendon has an ownership interest in multiple Oklahoma City restaurants that Chesapeake plays landlord to, according to loan documents and county real estate records, including Irma's Burger Shack, the Metro Wine Bar & Bistro and Deep Fork Grill.
The company or its affiliates, meanwhile, own Republic Gastropub, the Classen Curve shopping center, Triangle shopping center, Metro shopping center, a strip shopping center at the northeast corner of Western and NW 63 and a Shell Gas Station — properties all within two blocks of Chesapeake's campus.
The wine cellar stands as a reminder of McClendon's intent to create a neighborhood in which he would play a long-term role as chief planner — one that sometimes involved personal business interests locating within or near commercial real estate owned and developed by the company.
A shell company with the same mailing address as Chesapeake Energy purchased a house directly across the street from McClendon's unfinished wine cellar and two other tracts of land a block away in April for $1.8 million, according to property records.
Plan never revealed
Although Chesapeake has amassed real estate in Oklahoma City encompassing hundreds of properties worth hundreds of millions of dollars over the past decade, the company has been reticent to reveal it plans for much of its holdings.
The company previously has said its campus could encompass as much as 300 acres and house as many as 10,000 employees in the future.
Ward 2 Oklahoma City Councilman Ed Shadid, who represents the area, said he spends a lot of time dealing with issues related to Chesapeake's expanding presence in his district when the company's development plans spill over into his constituents' neighborhoods.
"One peculiarity has certainly been that the city has not seen a complete master plan of what the company envisions," Shadid said. "If there was a master plan, I think it has changed maybe multiple times. It's difficult for me to have changed expectations, because it wasn't clear to me what the master plan was and what it continues to be."
Between 2003 and 2007, Chesapeake experienced a period of unprecedented growth owing to rising natural gas prices and new technological advances in unconventional drilling.
Chesapeake was added to the S&P 500 in 2006. The same year, documents submitted to the Oklahoma City Planning Department showed that the company had plans for up to 75 condos, restaurants and a heliport.
In 2007, the company said it had hired the Boston-based firm Antonio Di Mambro + Associates to develop a 20-year master plan for its campus, but again, the public was allowed only glimpses of that vision.
Oklahoma City Planning Director Russell Claus admits he was never fully informed about McClendon's grand plan for the area, which in its totality is comparable in land mass to Bricktown, downtown Oklahoma City's entertainment district.
Claus calls the commercial investment by Chesapeake and McClendon "unprecedented" locally.
"I don't have an idea as to what he was planning," Claus said. "As for the campus itself, we did get to see a lot of his ideas actually get developed."
While natural gas prices have fallen precipitously since 2008, Chesapeake and McClendon have continued to dream big.
What is known about McClendon's vision is gleaned from pitches he and representatives have made to affected nearby property owners and at civic gatherings.
"The concept we want to establish is a place where you can live, work and play," McClendon said in a 2007 interview with The Oklahoman. "I want a place where you can walk to work, or to a restaurant, or to a bar or the cleaners ... I'm not trying to replicate anything. We're trying to do something original."
Incomplete projects
For several years, construction cranes have remained prominent fixtures at Chesapeake's still expanding corporate campus, where there had not been a construction break in more than a decade. The company currently has about 700,000 square feet of office space under construction on its main campus, according to building permits.
A number of the company's unfinished real estate development projects also surround the campus.
Merchants at the shopping center reported in 2008 they were told plans for rebuilding the plaza included a mix of more offices, housing and a hotel. They also were told the company hoped to remove Avondale Drive if it could acquire Nichols Hills town hall neighboring the shopping center.
ALSO: Nichols Hills waits for grocery store
Interested in boosting sales tax revenue at Nichols Hills Plaza, city officials sent a letter to Chesapeake in late 2011 hoping to begin negotiations to sell the town hall property.
However, the sale talks never moved forward, primarily because the small city does not have the funds needed to relocate or rebuild its town hall elsewhere, Nichols Hills Councilwoman Sody Clements said.
"We don't have the money to do it, so there we are," Clements said.
Chesapeake's plans for a company-owned grocery store in Nichols Hills Plaza have been scrapped and much of the southeast end of the shopping center where the grocery store was supposed to go remains empty.
Analyst predicts four scenarios for Chesapeake Energy after Aubrey McClendon leaves
A new report by Julie Anewalt, a research analyst with Grubb & Ellis/Levy Beffort, looked at four possible scenarios facing Chesapeake Energy after the departure of founder and Chief Executive Officer Aubrey McClendon. With all but one scenario, the forecast predicts tough times ahead for commercial properties and retailers in the Western Avenue corridor where the company and McClendon has invested millions in shopping centers, restaurants and shops.
Scenario: No changes at Chesapeake
"Even without ownership changes, Chesapeake's spending habits will change, and the purchasing frenzy that we have experienced will slow dramatically," Anewalt wrote.
"Company leadership has made it clear to its shareholders that it will focus more on its core business of oil and gas."
Anewalt's report suggests some impact to stores around the Chesapeake campus due to fewer employees and pay cuts.
Scenario: Chesapeake sold in whole, but some operations remaining in Oklahoma City.
Anewalt envisions employment being reduced through attrition, early retirement and some layoffs. Jobs would be absorbed by other area energy companies and would not significantly increase unemployment.
Area retailers would see some losses due to fewer employees and possible pay cuts.
Scenario: Chesapeake split up and sold to several companies.
"This scenario would have the most detrimental impact to Oklahoma City's economy and real estate markets," Anewalt wrote.
"Significant layoffs are possible. Those still employed with the company could be forced to leave the metro to follow job opportunities. Some, but not all, of the positions would be backfilled by other energy companies in the area."
The report predicts higher unemployment and reduced wages would be felt by the entire retail market under this scenario, with the brunt of the retraction likely to be suffered by merchants in Nichols Hills and near the corporate campus. High-end stores across the city also would see reduced sales.
Scenario: Aubrey McClendon creates a new oil and gas company and Chesapeake Energy remains based in Oklahoma City.
"Industry analysts believe it is unlikely that McClendon will leave the energy sector," Anewalt wrote.
"The Oklahoman reported that Aubrey McClendon is unable to enter the energy industry until June 2017, after all of Chesapeake's severance payments have been made and the six month noncompete period has been fulfilled. However, we anticipate this timetable to be pushed sooner."
Under this scenario, the report suggests the city could end up with five large energy companies: Devon, Chesapeake, Continental Resources, SandRidge and McClendon's new company. The impact on retail and commercial development with a new McClendon company and Chesapeake surviving is "unknown."
CONTRIBUTING: Richard Mize, Real Estate Editor
The company initially had promised Nichols Hills that the store would be open by fall 2012.
A grassy lot sits empty at NW Grand Boulevard and Glenbrook Drive where Chesapeake once had plans for a five-story condominium development. Chesapeake purchased the aging apartments at the site and had the property razed in 2008.
After Chesapeake revealed plans to develop a five-story condominium complex to residents in Glenbrook neighborhood, neighbor and former Oklahoma City Urban Renewal Authority Chairman Stanton L. Young sued Chesapeake Land Development Co., which functions as the energy company's real estate arm. In his lawsuit, Young claimed that Chesapeake would be in violation of neighborhood covenants if it were to move ahead with the development.
Although Young lost his lawsuit to have the development halted, Chesapeake has never moved forward with the condominium project after having the old apartment complex torn down.
Young, through a representative, declined to comment on the lawsuit. Fellow area resident Sharon Polkinghorne, who signed a sworn statement outlining what a Chesapeake executive had told her about plans for the condominiums as part of Young's lawsuit, said things are more peaceful in the neighborhood these days.
But there is a definite uncertainty among Glenbrook residents about what will now happen to the grassy lot, she said.
"That's the big question mark — what are they going to do with it?" Polkinghorne said. "They've got plans, they're just not sharing them with us."
Through a shell company, Chesapeake owns an entire block of now-vacant midcentury brick homes near NW 50 and Pennsylvania Avenue in anticipation of future development.
Some of the homes, all in the 5100 block of Barnes Avenue, were purchased for as much as two or three times their assessed market value, according to property records.
The last house on the block to sell was most recently valued by the county assessor at $92,685 and sold in January for $235,000.
The company would not discuss what it has in mind for Barnes Avenue. However, McClendon spoke of plans for Chesapeake to begin multiple Peake CNG stations, including a couple in Oklahoma City, at the company's last shareholder meeting in June.
Plans for such a CNG fueling station and retail store at NW 50 and Western Avenue have yet to move forward, although Chesapeake razed a Conoco station that stood on the spot and petitioned the city to close NW 49 at Western to appease residents in the area concerned about additional traffic in the neighborhood.
Shadid believes plans for the development at NW 50th and Western have since stalled.
While Shadid believes that Chesapeake's presence in Oklahoma City will continue, he has concerns about how new leadership will view McClendon's past zeal for real estate development.
"What I'm curious about," Shadid said, "is whether the new board would have the same enthusiasm for Oklahoma City real estate that is tangential if not completely unrelated to the oil and gas industry."

CarMax was built on the idea that there had to be a better way to buy a used car. So we set out to change things by making the buying process as easy (and fun!) as possible.
Before anything else though, we laid the foundation upon which our car-selling venture would be built: INTEGRITY.
Integrity in the way we treat customers and each other. And integrity in the way we select, renew, and protect our cars.
Only then did we move forward with the business of changing the way America buys cars...
When we asked customers what they wanted, this is what we heard:
And that's how we've done things, right from the start.
A tradition of success
The first CarMax store opened in 1993. Since then, we've grown to over 100 locations across the country, with more on the way. We're a FORTUNE® 500 company, we've sold more than 5 million cars, and we've been named one of FORTUNE® magazine's "Best Companies to Work For" eleven years in a row.
We want you to know us better. Find out about our beginnings and the values that gave rise to CarMax's culture of integrity.

White Harbor is a city in the North. It is one of the major cities of Westeros, located where the White Knife River flows into the Bite.[1] It is the seat of House Manderly, a vassal house holding fealty to House Stark of Winterfell. White Harbor is the main seaport of the North and is one of only five settlements in Westeros large enough to be called a city, though it is the smallest of the five ( the other four being, in decreasing order of size: King's Landing, Oldtown, Lannisport, and Gulltown).
Season 1
Ros tells Theon Greyjoy she is taking a ship from White Harbor to get her to King's Landing as fast as possible.[2]
Season 3
Eddison Tollett informs Lord Commander Jeor Mormont that the late Bannen hailed from White Harbor.[3]
In the books
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, White Harbor is the main center of trade and merchant activity in the North. Though the smallest of the major cities of Westeros, it is still far larger than any other settlement north of Gulltown and Braavos.
The city's harbor is defended by an outer sea wall almost a mile long, with tall towers located every 100 feet along the wall. The mouth of the White Knife River is guarded by the Seal Rock, named for the animals that dot its flanks. The city itself contains an old, mostly-abandoned godswood, with most religious worship taking place at the Snow Sept. The oldest building in the city is the old keep, the Wolf's Den, which now serves as the city prison. The city is built around the flanks of a hill, with the Manderly keep, New Castle, located the summit of the hill, which commands a wide view of the harbor and surrounding land.
The city was founded at the order of King Jon Stark several millennia ago to provide a trading link with the rest of Westeros. The Manderlys, exiled from the Kingdom of the Reach, were given control of White Harbor a thousand years ago. It is thus the only settlement of the North in which a significant portion of the population follows the Faith of the Seven instead of the Old Gods of the Forest, but there have been no major religiously-based tensions between the Manderlys and their neighbors.
In the novels, Catelyn Stark and Ser Rodrik Cassel use a ship from White Harbor to get to King's Landing around the same time that Eddard Stark and his party, travelling overland, arrive. However, in the television series there is no indication they used this method of travel.

I doubt that it was necessary for the original creators to accept the casting. I will offer an example for perspective. Ursula K. Le Guin was kept out of the loop when the Syfy Channel made a movie out of her fantasy series Earthsea. She was very upset when she discovered that it had been whitewashed.

Tiger Woods is back to No. 1 in the world with a game that looks as good as it ever has.
Woods tied a PGA Tour record Monday by winning the Arnold Palmer Invitational for the eighth time. He never let anyone closer than two shots in the final round at Bay Hill, closing with a 2-under 70 for a two-shot victory over Justin Rose.
Next up is the Masters in two weeks, when Woods will try to end his five-year drought in the majors.
Rickie Fowler tried to stay with Woods until hitting two shots into the water on the 16th and making a triple bogey.
Woods tied the tour record of eight wins in a single tournament. Sam Snead won the Greater Greensboro Open eight times.

Associated Press Release
NEW YORK (AP) -- The Waterford crystal ball that will drop in Times Square to usher in 2013 will have 288 new crystal panels with doves chiseled into them to mark the theme "Let There Be Peace."
The triangular panels replace 288 old ones on the 2,668-panel ball.
The Irish crystal company says organizers are doing something special this year: People are invited to send in their personal messages of peace via social media.

COLUMBIA COUNTY, Ga. -- The 14-year-old accused of shooting and killing his friend was granted bond Friday.
Judge Flanagan granted the teenager a $10,000 and recommended that he stay with family outside of the area.
The shooting incident resulted in the death of 13-year-old Kristen Burnette on Halloween night.
Flanagan says he's not happy that this is the third case in less than a year that involves juveniles at a home with firearms without parental supervision.
Both the suspect and Burnette attended Grovetown Middle School.

- Language and learning in the 'late age of print': situating a web-based essay writing project
- Author(s)
- Moore, Tim; Clerehan, Rosemary
- Abstract
- In 1999, the Language and Learning ,Services Unit at Monash embarked on a 'Strategic Innovations' project aimed at providing online web-based learning to students. One of the main components of the project has been the creation of a series of online tutorials in a range of academic skill areas. This paper provides a description and. a critique of one of the first tutorials developed - an essay writing tutorial. In evaluating this resource, our aim is to give a sense of the processes of learning and reflecting we have been engaged in on the project and also to situate these within broader debates about the new technologies and their impact on language and learning practices. We shall argue that the success of web-based language and learning resources is contingent on recognising the implications - both textual and pedagogical of the technology used.

Sometimes an all-black look gets the job done: it's easy, cool, effortless and bad ass. It was one of those looks that I threw on in 2 mins and headed out the door in new york!
The sneakers I picked up in Soho and were one of my favorite buys during nyfw- I'm the biggest 90's fan. From 90's music, to tv sitcoms, 90's grungy style/trends, to cool sneakers from the 90's and these sneakers are no exception. I love how we are seeing so much 90's influence today!
ps- My shop restocked the black Célfie sweater and we brought back the DBA sweater so make sure to get yours HERE. For all those that ask about the white Célfie tee, we are currently sold out but Singer22 carries our Célfie in white (plus other of our tees), Shopbop carries the biggest selection of our tees/sweaters (they have OFF DUTY in stock!) and last but not least, I'm beyond proud and excited to share that Colette in Paris is now carrying our Célfie tees both online and in store!!

Carbonfund.org and Amtrak Partner to Allow Passengers to Offset Carbon Emissions from Train Travel
Silver Spring, MD, December 17, 2007 – Carbonfund.org and Amtrak are pleased to announce that every passenger traveling with Amtrak now has the option to offset the carbon emissionscaused by their train trip, making what is already a green travel decision even greener.
Choosing to travel by rail is already a greener travel option, per passenger mile, than travelling either by car or plane. The average CO2 emissions per passenger mile travelling by rail are .18kg, compared with .21kg for car travel and .35kg for air travel. See a comparison of the carbon emissions caused by rail, car, and plane travel here.
"Rail travel is already recognized as a more sustainable travel option in countries around the world. We hope this partnership with Amtrak will lead people to take a second look at choosing rail travel in this country, too." Carbonfund.org Executive Director Eric Carlson said. "Amtrak is helping to make an extremely sustainable travel option even greener for millions of people. We're pleased to have Amtrak join us in leading the fight against global warming."
"By choosing to travel by rail, Amtrak passengers are already a step ahead because the carbon footprint generated by their trip is smaller than that of most other modes of transportation," said Roy Deitchman, Vice President, Environmental Health & Safety for Amtrak. "Because it is more energy efficient, traveling by rail contributes less per passenger mile to greenhouse gas emissions than either cars or airplane. Rail travel also helps to reduce highway congestion in major urban centers."
In addition to other energy-saving initiatives, Amtrak has committed to a 6 percent reduction in carbon dioxide emissions from its diesel locomotive fleet from 2003-2010. Amtrak is a member of the Chicago Climate Exchange.
About Amtrak
Amtrak provides intercity passenger rail services to more than 500 destinations in 46 states on a 21,000-mile route system. For schedules, fares and information, passengers may call 800-USA-RAIL or visit Amtrak.com.
About Carbonfund.org
Carbonfund.org is the country's leading carbon reduction and offset organization, making it easy and affordable for individuals, businesses and organizations to reduce their climate impact. Carbon offsetsenable individuals and businesses to reduce carbon dioxide emissions they are responsible for in their everyday lives by supporting high-quality verified renewable energy, energy efficiency and reforestation projects. Carbonfund.org works with over 400 corporate and non-profit partners including Discovery, Volkswagen, Dell, Orbitz, Environmental Defense, and Lancôme.

Phthalo Blue PB15:2 is a structural variant of Phthalo Blue PB15 that produces more greenish tones.
Phthalo Blues are completely lightfast and stable and are permanent for all paint uses. They are currently used in inks, coatings, and many plastics due to their stability and are considered a standard pigment in printing ink and the packaging industry.
Phthalo Blues have no significant hazards, although those made before 1982 contained some PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls).
Developed by chemists using the trade name Monastral Blue, the organic blue dyestuff now known as Phthalo Blue was presented as a pigment in November 1935 in London. Its discovery was accidental. The dark color was observed in a kettle where a dye was being made from a British dyestuff plant. The demand for such a pigment came from commercial printers who wanted a cyan to replace Prussian Blue.

Capt. Phil Tingirides tells the Orange County Register ( http://bit.ly/Y0rukd) that he hasn't been able to leave his home since he learned Christopher Dorner was seeking revenge against former LAPD colleagues that Dorner blames for ending his career.
Authorities suspect Dorner killed three people, including the daughter of a retired police captain who had represented Dorner in the disciplinary proceedings that led to his firing.
Tingirides chaired a board that stripped Dorner of his badge.
He says he's concerned for the safety of his family after seeing what Dorner is accused of doing to the daughter of former Capt. Randy Quan.

Sohae Launch Facility, North Korea, Nov. 26, 2012: This satellite image of the Sohae Launch Facility on Nov. 26, 2012 shows a marked increase in activity at North Korea's Sohae (West Sea) Satellite Launch Station. This activity is consistent with launch preparations as witnessed prior to the failed April 13, 2012 launch of the Unha 3 (i.e., Universe or Galaxy 3) space launch vehicle (SLV) carrying the Kwangmyongsong 3 (i.e., Bright Lodestar 3). Given the observed level of activity noted of a new tent, trucks, people and portable fuel/oxidizer tanks, should North Korea desire, it could possibly conduct its fifth satellite launch event during the next three weeks (e.g., by mid-December 2012).
Credit: DigitalGlobe via Getty Images
North Korea says it is forging ahead with a planned rocket launch this month, perhaps as soon as Dec. 10, drawing strong condemnation from U.S. officials who view the act as a thinly veiled ballistic missile test.
"A North Korean 'satellite' launch would be a highly provocative act that threatens peace and security in the region," officials with the U.S. State Department in a statement.
North Korea's state-run Korea Central News Agency said Saturday (Dec. 1) that the country will launch a long-range rocket between Dec. 10 and 22 from its Sohae Satellite Launch Station near the northwest village of Tongchang-ri. A photo of the launch site from space released last week by the commercial satellite imagery company DigitalGlobe showed striking similarities to North Korea's work ahead of its failed Unha-3 rocket launch in April.
North Korea claims the rocket launch will mark its fifth try to put a satellite in orbit, but critics in the United States, South Korea and elsewhere say it is little more than a long-range ballistic missile test for the North's nuclear weapons program. [North Korea's Rocket Program in Photos]
"Devoting scarce resources to the development of nuclear weapons and long-range missiles will only further isolate and impoverish North Korea," State Department officials said, adding that the launch violates United Nations Security Council resolutions. "The path to security for North Korea lies in investing in its people and abiding by its commitments and international obligations."
In South Korea, a Yonhap News Agency report cited an unnamed senior government official as saying the upcoming rocket launch is aimed at celebrating the one-year anniversary of the North's new leader Kim Jung-Un, who took power last year.
North Korea has made repeated failed attempts to launch long-range rockets since 1998.
In April, the country launched a three-stage Unha-3 rocket (the name means Galaxy-3) carrying the Earth-observing satellite called Kwangmyongsong-3, which translates to Bright Shining Star-3. The mission was highly touted by the North Korean government, but failed shortly after liftoff, prompting a rare public admission of failure by the country.
North Korea's Unha-3 rocket is 105 feet (22 meters) tall and is designed to carry payloads of up to 220 pounds (100 kilograms) into orbit.
South Korea is also currently preparing to launch its own rocket mission using its Korean Space Launch Vehicle 1. The rocket will launch from South Korea's Naro Space Center, about 300 miles (482 kilometers) south of Seoul. Two attempts to launch the satellite-carrying rocket have been delayed by technical glitches.
The mission marks South Korea's third rocket launch attempt. The first two attempts, in 2009 and 2010, ended in failure.

The latest happened Thursday afternoon. Authorities say 42-year-old Hope Densford was driving a personal watercraft with a tour group on Choctawhatchee Bay.
When a leader signaled the group to stop, they say she missed the signal. Densford then ran into another watercraft hitting her sister in-law, 42-year-old Denise Spivey.
Spivey was hospitalized with serious back injuries. This is the second serious accident on Destin waters this week. On Tuesday, 43-year-old Scott Sheffield of Catersville, Georgia suffered serious injuries when his 18-year-old son Scott ran into him.
It happened near the Jetties East Condominiums. Sheffield and Densford have been charged with reckless operation.

"Waste and Abundance: Critical Readings of Modern Wastelands"
"Faint light on stage littered with miscellaneous rubbish": Samuel Beckett's representation of the human condition as regulated by waste in Breath, a playlet of 1969, now reads as a striking anticipation of our present race against ecological catastrophe. However, if there is now a pressing need for us to re-think our attitudes towards consumption, this change should also extend to certain aspects of our approaches to literature, film, and critical theory. This two-day conference entitled "Waste and Abundance: Critical Readings of Modern Wastelands" seeks to outline contexts for conceptualising abundance and waste. It invites proposals that argue for the existence of specific perspectives on abundance and waste in strands of modernist and postmodernist literature as well as film. Suggested topics might include but are not limited to:
The body as cultural wasteland
Please send abstracts of 250-300 words plus brief biographical details to Susan Cahill, Emma Hegarty, and Emilie Morin at wasteandabundance_at_qub.ac.uk by Wednesday 31th January 2007.

Choose Talent First
Why big league managers side with pitching experience vs. pitching talent come the post season is beyond me.
Look what David Price, a September call up with a mere five innings of MLB experience, did against Boston in game seven.
The super-talented lefty begins by striking out the hot-hitting J.D. Drew on four pitches before closing the deal in the bottom of the ninth helping send the Rays to the World Series.
Price's outing reminds me of Joe Torre's decision in 2005 to add 39-year-old Al Leiter to his playoff roster because the crafty left-hander had "experience," never mind his regular season record of (7-12) with a 6.13 ERA.
Leiter pitched in four playoff games during 2005 posting an "experienced' 7.34 ERA – now, that's some kind of experience.
But, not even the great Torre is alone in his thinking; take Sweet Lou for example this October.
Piniella added the washed-up Bob Howry to his staff noting the right-hander's decade worth of MLB experience.
And why not add Howry, he only finished his worst season in the bigs in 2008 (5.35 ERA).
Unfortunately, the Cubs played so poorly Howry never had the chance to further prove my point.
Meanwhile, during the same year of Torre's blunder, 24-year-old rookie Bobby Jenks anchored the White Sox's pen bringing the trophy to Chicago's south side.
Three years earlier the Angels' Francisco Rodriguez, a September call up like Price, dominated in the playoffs as well, winning five games in relief for the eventual World Champion Halos.
The following season 'Trader Jack' McKeon rode 21-year-old rookie Dontrelle Willis' (3-0) post season all the way to the promise land.
So, when it's a decision between experience and talent, I'll take the later.
