During the Sept. 27 commissioner's meeting, a 4.4-acre property that fell into foreclosure was rezoned from commercial (C-1) with conditions to residential (R-1) for single-family homes.
The property in question had been considered for a small commercial development during March 2008 by the Walker County Planning Commission, which rejected an unrestricted C-1 (commercial) rezoning.
The following month, the developer appealed to commissioner Bebe Heiskell.
Heiskell sent the commercial project back to the planning commission, seeking further details on the plan. The C-1 zoning change occurred the following month upon receiving more detailed plans and a list of agreed-upon conditions related to the design concepts for the building and future stores.
A small grocer or convenient store (possibly a Save-a-Lot) was the proposed "anchor" business in the project, but it never occurred as a result of occupancy and economic challenges. More than 400 people signed a petition in favor of the commercial development in 2008, according to Kimbell.
Her office received only two or three letters opposing it prior to agreement of the conditions, according to Kimbell.
Conditional-use variances were placed on the property to address some public concerns regarding property values, public safety and flooding issues, specifically a 50-foot vegetative buffer and sidewalks connecting to Eagle Landing as requested by the residents. This occurred only months prior to the economic recession that affected property nationwide.
The Gateway Bank-owned parcel had fallen into foreclosure as the commercial development never materialized.
H.L. Bloodworth signed the contract with Gateway Bank, contingent upon receiving a residential rezoning of either R-1 for single family homes or R-2 for residential, which accommodates either single family homes or duplexes, according to paperwork filed with Kimbell's office.
Ten people, from that community, supported the R-1 rezoning, by show of hands, during the Walker County Planning Commission meeting for the project, according to Kimbell.
"We listened to all of the citizens that were concerned and their biggest concern was about the multi-family (possibility)," Kimbell said. "The planning commission made the motion to recommend R-1 (single-family housing), which is what the citizens said they wanted."
Bloodworth recently finalized the property transaction for an undisclosed dollar amount.
John Nightingale, a nearby resident, saw the 2012 public notice for the rezoning while in the midst of rebuilding their home, as was the case for numerous neighbors of his in the portion of Flintstone that was ravaged by a tornado in April 2011.
Nightingale and his wife Susan had long envisioned a place for the community to gather, which was first proposed to Heiskell in 2008, as numerous Eagle Landing residents were opposed to the possibilities commercial development, attended the commissioner's meeting in which the property was rezoned to C-1 with conditions, according to Nightingale.
Nightingale recalls that Heiskell dismissed the idea, during a commissioner's meeting in 2008, which was attended by several neighbors opposed to the commercial development.
"Her response was 'Where were you when we were building the sidewalk for the handicapped community' that lives right up the road," Nightingale said. "We aren't asking for a handout. We're willing to work as a community to raise the money to buy it, if that's what it takes. It will take us a while, but we'll do it. "
At the time of the rezoning, Bloodworth stated he planned to go ahead with the purchase, despite not receiving the rezoning he sought, as a better financial investment than other options he considered.
Slowly progressing toward a park
The idea of having a park or green space to serve as a community center was born out of the sense of community spirit that grew larger during the yearlong road to recovery after the tornado.
Under the blue-and-green-tarped homes, Flintstone neighbors that were moderate acquaintances became a tight-knit group that lent support to each other during exhausting and emotional circumstances that can only experienced during a disaster.
"I think that (the tornado) solidified the (community park), not just in our minds but in all of the people that are for this concept," Nightingale said. "We want to keep that going."
Prior to approving the most restrictive R-1 rezoning change, Heiskell stated she would meet with the Nightingales at another time about the community's desire for a park.
"We did the best we could to protect those citizens," Kimbell said. "We can't just say we're gonna do a park. It's just not that simple. We had to make a decision and we did not give (Bloodworth) the rezone that (he) requested. We listened to the citizens."
Half of the recently rebuilt and renovated residences on Eagle Landing Drive are on 15,000-square-foot lots (0.34 acre), which is the minimum lot size that Bloodworth could build on, for a maximum of 12 homes on the 4.4 acre lot, depending on configuration, according to Kimbell.
The Nightingales appreciate the compromise, which prevented the duplexes, or any type of multi-family dwellings.
They are seeking an attorney to set up a non-profit organization specifically for the purpose of building the park, according to John Nightingale.
"We're not going to give up, whether it is this property or some other place," Nightingale said. "Ideally we want that place (Bloodworth property), but right now the long pole in the tent is on our side. I was surprised at all of the places Walker County has spent money on in the past few years."
Suggestions that the couple should have purchased the recently cleared lots within their subdivision were not considered because of the lot size and lack of parking and accessibility issues as the road ends with a cul-de-sac.
The acreage of those lots would only allow for a playground. "We don't want a swing set and a slide for our kids to play on. I can put that in our backyard," Nightingale said.
The community members were not financially prepared to purchase the foreclosure property while they rebuilt their tornado-damaged homes.
The Nightingale's park petition, with 38 Flintstone residents, has since grown to more than 100 signatures in the past few weeks, which now includes financial pledges to the effort.
A bank account in Flintstone is planned, so residents can make contribution to the community concept, which will be refundable if the endeavor doesn't happen.
The Nightingale's plan was met with community suggestions for the park to include occasional local musical performances, a farmer's market or annual community fair.
The Nightingales plan to meet again with Heiskell once the project is further along and concepts have become blueprints.

Have you noticed the Hos springing up around the world? Of course, the original Ho started in the City of Westminster, England with the swanky SoHo music and theater district. I can't speak to London's West End SoHo. Maybe it is because I have a predilection for countries where I don't speak the language – you know, someplace where I can rationalize my cluelessness.
For those of us who grew up across the pond, New York City has the real SoHo and it still connotes edgy artists struggling in a 2,000 square foot loft with a sofa, a fridge and over sized canvases everywhere. The nights promise that special undiscovered restaurant followed by an opening with a brilliant (and also undiscovered) artist.
Of course, my information might be a bit dated. This is the SoHo where Madonna got her first (and only) kudos for acting just like herself in Desperately Seeking Susan. The artists have been squeezed out of this SoHo a generation ago and my daughter who makes the island a part of most weekend plans says that now it is more like going to the mall.
So maybe the used clothing bins have been replace by Abercrombie and Fitch. None of this matters because the myth lives on and everybody wants a Ho in their neighborhood. New York also hosts NoHo (North of Houston) and BoHo for the Bowery south of Houston. Like SoHo, these Hos earned an urban street cred, teeming with emerging artists and specialty micro restaurants. Also like SoHo, gentrification forced them out of the neighborhood years ago.
But these Hos continue to spring up around the world. Next time you are in Hong Kong, head to SoHo, or "South of Hollywood Road," which has emulated the New York SoHo to a fault with corporatized shopping and overpriced tourists galleries. They even have their own NoHo, North of Hollywood Street. Maybe you want to tango your way down the street. Then head to Palermo Soho, Buenos Aires where the hip restaurants and street shops are a magnet for tourists and affluent youth seeking a safe way to have some "edgy" fun.
Los Angeles' North Hollywood also wanted some of that urban juice and one day a bunch of signs suddenly appeared reading "NoHo Arts District." As urban environments go, however, Los Angeles is still an adolescent and we are just now learning how to park our cars to get out and walk – baby steps, as it were. Los Angeles is evolving, though, and contrary to the cartoons in New Yorker Magazine, there is a rich and vibrant arts scene here. But North Hollywood? Really? I found the signs pretty amusing but I kept driving without stopping to get out. This is The Valley, after all. Even if you do like it here, you aren't supposed to admit it. For you New Yorkers, this is like having a HoHo Art District in Hoboken (on the Hudson), New Jersey.
Beside here in Los Angeles we already have WeHo (West Hollywood), home to the world's largest Halloween party attended by 300,000 spectacularly put together alter egos. It is also home to one of the nations largest Gay Pride parades, attended by hundreds of thousands of unaltered egos.
Most cities will never get a whole Ho district and will settle for a scaled down sampling. If you are doing some traveling but still have a longing for that smell of oil paints and no-whip lattes you can stay at the Soho Hotel in Budapest. In Barcelona, you even have a choice between the SoHo Hotel and the Hotel SoHo Barcelona.
Google "SoHo" +"your favorite city" and you will find a SoHo restaurant, bar, coffee shop or gallery. SoHo is synonymous with young dialed-in urbanites. And who wouldn't want a little of that metro mojo regardless of where they live?
Even Topeka, Kansas, still living down its image as created in A Boy and His Dog, seeks out some of that urban vibe. First scrub that Victorian house with a visit to Soho Interiors, Then change up the bonnet and bustle for some bohemian styling and grab a cappuccino at SoHo Espresso to make sure that brown isn't really a mocha.
Curiously, HoBo never caught on.

Langley Middle School boy, girl Cougars finish cross country season
November 19, 2012 · Updated 10:01 AM
The Langley Middle School cross country team hosted the Cascade League finals at South Whidbey High School and South Whidbey Community Park.
Langley's girls raced first and were paced by eighth grader Sophie Morgan, who finished the 1.5-mile course in 9:33. The Cougars received plenty of support from Morgan's teammates. Anna Leski placed third, Elizabeth Donnelly fifth, Kinsey Eager seventh and Bethany Justus 10th. Langley's girls team score of 23 placed them first ahead of second-place King's, which scored 50 points.
Other Cougars who finished in the top 20 were Fiona Callahan (17th), Bailey Forsyth (18th) and Kayla Aleck (20th). Also running well, Langley coaches said, were Annika Hustad, Nora Anastasi, Fiona Reilly, Savanna Taylor, Chloe Stringer, Elli Sandberg and Ally Lynch.
"We ran well because we put in a lot of hard work in practice and it showed in the races," said Cougar coach Anna Leski.
The Langley boys were not to be outdone by their female teammates. The Cougar boys went out and finished with five runners in the top eight places. Justin Gonzales placed second, Arthur Keast fourth, Will Simms fifth, Athen Seyler sixth and Cory Ackerman eighth. Langley's team score of 25 pushed it well ahead of the rest of the league — Northshore Christian placed second with 64 points.
Rounding off the top 20 in the boys race were Alex Buktenica Low (ninth), Ari Rohan (12th), Ian Saunsaucie (16th) and Colby Brasher (19th). Also running well were Ryan Keene, Caleb Bartel, Liam Henny and Kade Petty.
"These results are a product of the hard work these runners put in day in and day out in practice," said Cougar coach Steve Jones.
Added Cougar coach Jack Terhar: "This team developed a synergy caused by a combination of great leadership, work ethic and support for each other. It was a joy to coach them."

Aged 54
* The Guardian, Saturday 13 August 2005 00.02 BST
William Wise followed the same routine on the way to work every day for ten years. After leaving home shortly before 8am, the IT specialist would take the tube to Liverpool Street where he would join the early morning regulars at Leonidas Belgian chocolate shop for a double espresso at 8.30am. After half an hour quietly listening to others holding forth he would make the short walk to the offices of Equitas Holdings in St Mary Exe, where he worked. Occasionally he would nip to the barbers in the station for a quick hair cut.
He died travelling on the number 30 bus on his way between Euston and King's Cross.
Brought up in Berkhamstead, the son of a GP, Mr Wise suffered from epilepsy and lived alone in Notting Hill Gate, in a house he spent much of the last five years renovating. He had two brothers and a sister who lives in Canada. He has been described by friends as a quiet, gentle and intelligent man.

William Wise: Enjoyed his morning coffee
Described as a quiet, gentle and intelligent man, William Wise had made the commute from his home in Notting Hill, west London, to Liverpool Street station for 10 years.
Mr Wise was one of several people who died in the number 30 bus bombing in Tavistock Square after being evacuated from the underground and seeking an alternative way into work.
The 54-year-old had grown up in Berkhamstead in Hertfordshire, the son of a GP. His mother died when he was young and he suffered from epilepsy.
An IT specialist at Equitas Holdings in St Mary Axe, near Liverpool Street, Mr Wise enjoyed a morning ritual of visiting the Leonidas Belgian chocolate shop at the station.
He was such a lovely guy
Narisa Monopoli
There he would meet a small group of acquaintances and sip a double espresso, before completing the last leg of his journey on foot. It was something he had enjoyed doing for seven years.
Narisa Monopoli, the former owner of the shop, said: "He was such a gentle, gentle man. He would sit on the high chair in the corner and chat to a group of corporate lawyers who also came in every morning.
"He never had a bad word to say about anyone, he was such a lovely guy.
"He was married once but lived on his own. He never spoke about his private life, just small captions. He said he was married and that was it. No detail."
Like clockwork, Mr Wise always arrived at the shop at 0830 and stayed for half-an-hour, she said. So he must have been running late that day to be caught up in the bombings.
He once joked with her that he had probably caused a bomb scare in the past by leaving his bag on the train after having an epileptic fit.
Mr Wise, who enjoyed following football, is survived by a brother who is a banker, another who is a neurology lecturer, and a sister in Canada.
The 22-year-old hairdresser from Borehamwood, Hertfordshire, was on his way to work with best friend Patrick Barnes, who was injured in the blast. He later told Mr Beer's elder sister, Stacy, that he heard his friend cry out after the explosion.
Ms Beer said: "At half past nine Pat phoned me, hysterical, to say that the bombs had gone off and he couldn't find Phil. He said he spoke to Phil after the explosion and called out to him.
"He said, 'Are we going to die?' and Phil said, 'No, we are not going to die,' and that was all the conversation they had."
His colleagues at Sanrizz in Knightsbridge remembered Mr Beer as "a born entertainer" who "lived life to the full".
"He had a fantastic personality that was full of character and was loved by his colleagues and countless friends alike," they said

Diabetes Alert Program
Diabetes Alert Program
Diabetes-related symptoms can sometimes resemble intoxication, causing problems for drivers with diabetes who are pulled over for a traffic stop. Three Methodist hospitals are participating in a community Diabetes Alert program designed to help law enforcement officers identify drivers who may be experiencing diabetes-related symptoms.
Drivers with diabetes can obtain a Diabetes Alert sticker for their cars that can be presented to officers at a traffic stop. Through the program, health officials will also provide area law enforcement officers additional information about diabetes, including information cards that not only clearly identify diabetes-related symptoms but also detail appropriate actions to better protect the health of the individual.
How to Participate
If you would like a sticker for your car, first obtain a prescription form from your physician identifying you as having diabetes. The prescription can then be submitted to a designated Methodist diabetes treatment center (listed below) for a special vehicle "Diabetes Alert" sticker to be placed on the lower, inside left corner of the driver's side rear window of your car. A copy of the prescription will be returned to you to be kept in the vehicle at all times and presented to law enforcement officers as needed.
Methodist Diabetes Treatment Centers are located at:
Methodist Le Bonheur Germantown Hospital
7691 Poplar Avenue, Germantown, TN 38138
Contact: Kristy Merritt, RN, BNS, CDE
Le Bonheur Children's Hospital

Amidst the pineywoods and nearby lakes of Deep East Texas, you'll find Jasper, the seat of Jasper County. As "Jewel of the Forest", Jasper enjoys the reputation for having the best of what a smaller community has to offer. The historic courthouse, built in 1889, towers over the town square, which offers 2 bed and breakfasts, 2 art galleries, specialty shops, and the old county jail which houses the archives. Jasper began as one of the many Texas sawmill towns in the late 1800's. The coming of the railroad brought Jasper its own branch line and firmly established the town as a leader in the logging industry. Today, lumber is still king, but the local economy has changed dramatically. Tourism has taken great strides, and associated businesses have been developing and expanding. The development of Sam Rayburn Lake, Martin Dies Jr. State Park, and nearby national forests have made Jasper a year-round tourist destination. The establishment of the Jasper Airport Industrial Park has added another dimension to our thriving economy. A project of the Jasper Economic Development Corporation, this state-of-the-art airport park is the home of North Star Aero, and serves as a major force in attracting new businesses to the Jasper area. Another industrial area on the east side of town is being improved to allow greater rail access for heavy industry. With the tall pines softly cradling our quiet community, making it a haven for all to enjoy our natural beauty and recreational opportunities, combined with ever expanding businesses and job opportunities, Jasper is truly the place to come for a weekend or a lifetime!

Burnaby NOW reader Thomas Tricarico got an unexpected visitor just after 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday afternoon.
Tricarico, who lives in North Burnaby near the Barnet Road area, said a black bear ambled into his backyard and he had just enough time to grab his camera and get some shots.
"Was I scared? Not really," said Tricarico. "If he had started to come toward me, maybe, but I would've gotten inside pretty quick."
Tricarico said the black bear wasn't all that intrusive, as the lovebird in a cage in his backyard wasn't even disturbed by the bear.
Tricarico wasn't the first person on his block to see the bear, as he noticed a neighbour go out the back door, see the bear, and then reverse track by going through the front door.
Tricarico said he tried to call the conservation office for the area, but he didn't get a response back.
This isn't the first time Tricarico has had a bear visit his place, as he had a black bear come into his yard last year as well.
"There's been lots of construction going on in the area, so maybe we're infringing on their (habitat)," he said.

WSDOT says commuting by ferry saves time, money and reduces greenhouse gases
December 3, 2012 · 3:31 PM
Ferries are an alternative to driving that cuts emissions
Ferries recently examined the six busiest commuter routes in the ferry system (representing 71 percent of all WSF commuters) to compare the time, cost, and greenhouse gas emissions of a commuter driving around the Puget Sound versus taking a ferry.
Choosing the ferry has lower costs, takes less time and contributes fewer greenhouse gas emissions compared to driving for each commute route shown in the table below.
A commuter saves nearly two hours, more than $31, and 73 kilograms of greenhouse gas emissions (measured in carbon dioxide equivalents) each day by taking the Bainbridge to Seattle ferry rather than driving.
Daily greenhouse gas emissions savings taking the ferry instead of driving around the Puget Sound on state highways vary from 44 kilograms to 81 kilograms depending on the route.
By riding the ferry instead of driving, each day commuters saved an average of:
Seattle - Bremerton route:
- 39 minutes
- $21
- 42 kilograms of greenhouse gas emissions
Seattle - Bainbridge route:
- 119 minutes
- $32
- 74 kg greenhouse gas emissions

Barbara Walters interviews Barbara Walters
In her new memoir, "Audition," the iconic television journalist plumbs the troubled childhood and love life of her ultimate subject -- herself.
By Rebecca TraisterTopics: Memoirs, Barbara Walters, Life News
It's tough not to distrust an autobiography in which the author refuses to disclose her exact age. But Barbara Walters does just that on page 14 of Audition, her memoir, which hits stands on Tuesday. "I am now in my seventies, and that is as specific as I will get," she writes in an opening-sentence parenthetical in the chapter "My Childhood." Too bad for the optimistically ageless Walters that Wikipedia, the Internet Movie Database, Yahoo and several prominent astrology sites have all felt free to get more specific than she: The television journalist was born on Sept. 25, 1929; she will turn 79 this year.
But Walters' bizarre coyness at the start of what she clearly feels is a soul-baring work — "In this book I basically bleed for 570 pages, " she told columnist Cindy Adams — is merely symptomatic of the slightly prim distance she keeps from her own beguiling, twisty, readable story.
Walters has essentially produced a printed version of the perfect Barbara Walters TV interview, in which she coughs up tantalizing nuggets about her love life (an affair with the married Sen. Edward Brooke of Massachusetts, who teases her about being the oldest woman he's ever dated, while she tells him he's "the blackest man" she's ever been with); her troubled childhood (Walters' mother once sent her to her father's nightclub to plead with him not to abandon the family); and her own buried insecurities ("I desperately wanted playmates, to have friends over to my house, to belong instead of always feeling like an outsider"). There are barrels of personal trivia ("I developed the bladder of a camel … I don't perspire") and a heaps of solemn self-diagnosis ("I knew that I had my mother's love, and I remember her often saying that she wished she had six of me … But in my mind then, it didn't seem like enough") and more Borscht-belt comedy about her eccentric Jewish relatives than Woody Allen's "Radio Days."
The steady clip of interview fodder is diverting but somehow sterile and performed. It's so hard to divorce her style from her story that I found myself often imagining her paragraphs, many of which include questions she's asking herself, as Vaseline-lensed exchanges, with Barbara Walters leaning in conspiratorially and asking, "But was it a tewibble childhood?" while across from her, Barbara Walters takes a meaningful pause and replies softly, "I had wuv. I never wacked for food or clothes."
Walters' descriptions of on-scene, in-person, heavily (and often too cozily) sourced television journalism may seem exotic to anyone who's grown up in the age of tabloid TV, and especially to those who now consider journalism, of both the celebrity and political varieties, to be an art best practiced at the computer in pajamas.
But Walters' career spanned (and in fact, she helped shape) the transformation of news into entertainment and entertainment news into uncut gossip. Walters, with her inimitable interrogatory style and drive to plumb the depths of prominent personalities transformed presidents into regular Joes, murderers into celebrities, and celebrities into commodities to be haggled over by morning shows.
It is surely fortuitous, if not planned, that Walters' book is being published right now, smack in the middle of Hillary Clinton's historic run for president and at the moment Katie Couric's ticking time bomb of a tenure at CBS seems primed to explode.
Walters was the first female co-host of the "Today" show and the first woman to co-host a network news program. Her 1976 move from NBC's "Today" to ABC's evening news program, for a then-unprecedented million dollars, created a media shit-storm that makes Couric's ascension to the solo anchor chair at CBS feel like it took place during a warm summer rain shower. As Walters describes, in a paragraph that still feels uncomfortably relevant 30 years later, "A woman doing the network news was unheard of and certainly not something I had ever considered. The prestigious position had always been a male bastion, and the prevailing thought was that delivering the news about politics, wars, and natural disasters would not be taken seriously if done by a woman."
After weeks of public negotiations with the two networks, Walters, like Couric, decided to leave the comfortable climes of morning television. "What an event it will be," she remembers her agent telling her. "You'll be making broadcast history. You'll be changing the world for other female journalists." Naturally, when she finally made the leap, NBC preempted her by announcing they were cutting off negotiations because of her high-maintenance demands.
Walters, who comes off as more than a little ambivalent about her own role as a groundbreaking professional woman, casts herself as a reluctant history maker. "It was not in my nature to be courageous," she writes, "to be the first. I was the same person who chose the so-called lesser sorority in high school rather than take a chance on not being chosen at all."
Walters nonetheless takes care to report on the very public drubbing she received at the hands of her male peers during the summer between her departure from "Today" and the start of her tenure at ABC. "I am trying to have an open mind about it," was the less-than-supportive statement her future co-anchor Harry Reasoner made to the papers. CBS News president Richard Salant asked, "Is Barbara a journalist or is she Cher?" while Walter Cronkite announced that Walters' move gave him "the sickening sensation that we're all going under."
Walters is clearly still pretty pissed, if ultimately triumphant. With all the men in her business whining publicly about the news industry going to hell in a (woman's) handbag, she notes that when she got her big salary, "you know what? Almost every television journalist, including Harry Reasoner, walked into his boss's office, demanded a raise — and got it. Well, you're welcome."
She also doesn't have a great deal of sympathy for any trials faced by those younger newswomen whose world she changed. While she spares precious few words about Couric, the journalist and pop-culture pioneer who will most often be mentioned alongside her in the future, Walters allows a paragraph or two about the softer waters into which Couric belly-flopped two years ago when she left for CBS.
"There was little uproar over the salary CBS was giving her," Walters writes. And, she adds, "NBC gave her the most glorious send off … There was a gala going-away party for her … and an equally warm welcome awaiting her at CBS." Walters grudgingly concedes that in 2006, "there were articles and editorials about whether Katie would succeed, but nothing scathing or mean when she left NBC; no lies and nothing deliberately hurtful." Perhaps Walters is forgetting the great "gravitas" debate of '06, as well as the reams of personal criticism aimed at Couric, her makeup and wardrobe teams, and her clickety heels. Or maybe Walters simply, and perhaps rightfully, feels that those obstacles were nothing compared to the mountain of gender resentment and antipathy she scaled.
"Perhaps my experience was the price of being first," she writes. "Back in 1976 you could freely attack a woman for wanting to attempt to do a so-called man's job, especially in the holier-than-thou men-only news departments. Many people still believed that women were supposed to know their place — and stay in it … Today, that same attitude would not only be politically incorrect, but the backlash would be enormous."
Whatever resentment she still carries about the professional hurdles she faced, Walters saves plenty of recrimination for herself, in chapters about her adopted daughter and her mentally retarded sister, both named Jackie.
Under the J.K. Rowling-esque heading "The Hardest Chapter to Write," Walters delves at least partway into the emotional turmoil she experienced as mother to an unhappy daughter who was unsure whether people liked her because of who she was, or because her mother was Barbara Walters. "I thought my Jackie had a pretty happy childhood," writes Walters. "She doesn't seem to think so." Jackie got involved in drugs, gangs and heaps of trouble before being packed off to a three-year rehabilitation program in the Midwest. Now a happy adult, and reconciled with her mother, Jackie Danforth runs a similar program in Maine.
But Walters cannot stop picking at the scab of what went wrong between them. She asks herself question after question about what she did wrong, each of them an onion-peeler that would make any of her guests shed a tear. "Could I have done more? If I had not been concentrating so much on my own work … would I have known more?"
The questions about her retarded sister are even harder, since it is Walters' contention that her ambivalent feelings about her sibling are what drove her to become who she is. She loved Jackie, who she surmises might have been diagnosed as autistic and lived a far better life today. But she also hated and resented her "for being different, for making me feel different." Walters' guilt over her relationship with Jackie so propelled her that she considered calling her autobiography "Sister."
"Much of the need I had to prove myself, to achieve, to provide, to protect, can be traced back to my feelings about Jackie," writes Walters, and it is in this confession that readers learn a crucial truth, both about Walters' historic career and about the changes in attitudes about women and work that have been wrought in the decades it spanned. Approaching 80, Walters clearly feels she still needs to pathologize and diagnose her own ambition, to make excuses and explain away her own freakish impulses toward success.
For all of Walters's brassiness, it's an apologetic approach to power, one that will hopefully be unfamiliar to women raised in a world in which we have female news anchors, female executives, and female candidates for president.
As for Clinton, the other "first woman to …" likely to be on readers' minds as they page through "Audition," Walters has mostly kind words. She describes one of the first times she ever wore pants, rather than a skirt, for an interview, on a trip to the White House during a snowstorm. Walters pulled on snow boots and hauled ass from New York to Washington only to find her subject in pants as well. That's right: Both Clinton's and Walters' big pantsuit debuts occurred on the same day! As the journalist bizarrely notes, "She looked great. Mrs. Clinton is quite small on top but rather large in the hips. The pants flattered her figure, and now one rarely sees Senator Clinton in anything but pants suits." (I somehow skimmed over Walters' thoughts on the breadth of Henry Kissinger's shoulders and his preference for double-breasted jackets.)
Hillary Clinton appears later in the book, as Walters trips down memory lane through Great Interviews Past. Talking to Walters after the publication of "Living History," the former first lady claimed that she'd stayed with her straying husband, despite friends' advice to the contrary, because "your friends won't be there at three in the morning," a recollection that leads one to believe that in Clinton's world, apparently no one but her is ever awake when you need them at 3 in the morning.
Walters' only mention of Barack Obama is a self-deprecating story about how, upon meeting the senator, she asked him to appear on her chat fest "The View." Obama told Walters that he'd already appeared on the show in 2004 to promote his book "Dreams of My Father." "I'm so sorry I wasn't on the program that day," she recalls telling him, to which he responds, "Oh … but you were." Whoops.
There are a lot of these silly, star-larded, but sometimes astute anecdotes in "Audition," and it's part of what makes the book compulsively entertaining, if ultimately shallow. At one point, she compares knitting enthusiast Monica Lewinsky to Madame Defarge from "A Tale of Two Cities," and asks her, "Are you knitting the names of people you want to destroy?" Lewinsky, whom Walters describes with acidic condescension as "the kind of girl who gives you hugs," doesn't catch the reference. But the passage is a sad reminder of what Walters understood, though Lewinsky may not have, about the impulses of the sharks then circling the former intern.
Walters has a decent sense of humor about herself, and treading gingerly, she even acknowledges the myriad ways in which she, her interviewing style and her distinctive R-less speaking voice have been lampooned by generations of comedians like Gilda Radner (whose Baba Wawa character probably helped seal its inspiration's place in the celebrity firmament) and Johnny Carson, who could not stop jeering at "What kind of a tree would you be?" — the question she once asked Katharine Hepburn in an interview. Walters insists defensively that it was Hepburn who first compared herself to a tree.
The parts of Walters' memoir that have already generated the most ink — and will undoubtedly eat up the most television time (Walters is scheduled to appear on "Oprah" on Tuesday to discuss her book) — are the personal revelations about her dating life, specifically about the affair with Brooke. Walters also lingers sparingly, and unemotionally, on her marriages, and on relationships with other big-name men like John Warner and Alan Greenspan, whom she used to confuse with another concurrent boyfriend, Alan Greenberg. Hilariously, Walters also writes that Greenspan pushed her to read "The Fountainhead" and "Atlas Shrugged," Ayn Rand's Objectivist classics for aspiring fascists (Walters claims that the books had no effect on her save the wish that her parents had named her after Rand's heroine, Dagny.)
Surely the finest and most revealing moment in "Audition" comes near the end, when Walters describes being interviewed by Oprah Winfrey, for O magazine, on the occasion of her retirement from "20/20." Oprah asks her what it "means" to be Barbara Walters, a question that may exceed even the high Walters-ian bar for pop-psych pseudo-depth. Walters responds that she's not sure. "I realize how blessed I have been but sometimes I still feel inadequate," she tells Oprah. "I don't cook. I can't drive. Most of the time, when I look back on what I've done, I think: Did I do that? Why didn't I enjoy it more? Was I working too hard to see?"
As Walters reports in her book, "I looked up at Oprah and saw that she had tears in her eyes." And there it is, the meaning of Barbara Walters. She can even make her interviewer cry.

The protests take on a festive element as police forces move out of the park and square. Wearing a gas mask, this young man dances to traditional Turkish music in front of Taksim Square's Ataturk Monument.
In Gezi Park since March 31st, this protester, originally caught off-guard by the Government's teargas and water cannons, went out and bought a Russian army mask from WWII, preparing for what was to come.
This rambunctious boy seems to be enjoying the chaos. After taking this picture he threw a stone at the already destroyed building in the background.
Forming a line, the police face off directly with protesters in Taksim Square. After a while, they retreated and there was a general cheer – a back-and-forth dance that has been common since the beginning of this protest.
An elderly woman in Gezi Park reads the news. The tent community occupying the park was violently destroyed on June 16th.
Many different groups had set up booths to promote their cause in Taksim Square and Gezi Park. Standing in front of one, this man waves his flag while posing with conviction.
Many home-remedies are used to minimize the effects of tear gas. This woman has put a milky solution on her face, removing her mask after the tear gas dissipated. Before sunrise, the police came again for another round of teargasing.
People capitalize on the uprising -- selling flags, beer, gas masks, sky lanterns and spray paint to name just a few of the popular items.
On Monday morning, June 11, the police execute a strong offensive. Many plain-clothed police officers, like the ones seen here, clash with protesters in the side streets away from the main stand-off in Taksim.
The authorities seem to be most aggressive in the night, pushing protesters away from the square and park. After being teargassed this young woman catches her breath with other protesters on Siraselviler Street.

I have an interesting problem where I need to transmit TCP packets deterministically rather than whenever the tcp/ip stack gets around to sending the packet. I haven't been able to accomplish this using Netservices but I would really like to. I have used the lwip library directly and I am able to send tcp packets at 10hz exactly with the data I need in each packet using the tcp_write followed by a tcp_output. However in Netservices there is no access to tcp_write and tcp_output directly. Does anyone know where I can start to modify the Netservices library to gain direct access to tcp_write and tcp_output ? I have tried hard at this and just can't figure it out. I have played with options in lwipopts.h and the best I could do was set the TCP_MSS to 10 (my max packet size) which kind of works, the packets are no larger than 10 bytes but they don't get transmitted immediately, they are still queued up somewhere.
I would really like to use Netservices for this project, I just need access to tcp_write and tcp_output.
Sounds like you are trying to an URGENT tcp message (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_Control_Protocol skip to the "Out of band data" section). Just googling a bit does show that urgent TCP has been implemented in LWIP in some places - but I don't know if MBED's port has it. Search for it in the source. If that exists, it skips the data queue and xmits immediately.
To do truly deterministic Ethernet, you need a different physical layer, because Ethernet was built around collisions and retries. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethercat if you really want deterministic TCP or UDP.
Another idea - often you can get the same job done by sending the data to your target ahead of time, and then have him wait for a deterministic "trigger" signal that you just pulse with a digital output pin, when you want him to "go".
Another another idea - CANbus has deterministic timing, and MBED has CANbus.
Errol, can you not just #include <lwip/tcp.h> from your code which includes the NetServices library and then make calls to tcp_write() and tcp_output().
#include <lwip/tcp.h>
Thanks for the responses!
I haven't tried just including lwip/tcp.h yet, I'll give it a shot and let you know how it goes. I have however used lwip directly without the Netservices wrapper and have been able to get everything to work the way I need but I would like to use Netservices at the same time for other things that it helps with (http, etc.).
I am aware that Ethernet is not a very deterministic architecture but I have to use it unfortunately for this project. Basically we have to push vehicle speed data that is converted from an analog signal to a tcp packet to another system that I don't have control of. Their system must have this in the form of separate tcp packets at a 10hz rate. I guess they already know that there are going to be occasional hiccups. The good thing is that its a very small network, one router and 2 nodes so the bandwidth is all mine..
Basically we have to push vehicle speed data that is converted from an analog signal to a tcp packet to another system that I don't have control of. Their system must have this in the form of separate tcp packets at a 10hz rate.
Errol - Attach a timestamp to each speed value, so that you are sending time/speed pairs that can be graphed. It doesn't sound like you need to deliver the speed values at deterministic times, it just sounds like your client needs to know exactly when the speed values were sampled. This is a really common situation.
Unfortunately their packet structure is already defined and they don't include a timestamp.. go figure. I believe this is because the system that uses the vehicle speed data needs to make immediate use of it and if its at all delayed then it won't use it. This is a real time system but not a safety system...
Anyway. I got this working with Netservices finally.
I modified lwip/include/lwip/tcp_impl.h
I changed:
to this:
this is the tcp fast timer value in milliseconds.
I also modified lwip/core/tcp_out.c
added lines of "apiflags |= TF_NODELAY" to the tcp_write and tcp_pbuf_prealloc functions.
Granted this fix is more of a temporary hack that would only work for my specific situation and probably would not be suitable for anything else.
I think I found a better way to do this.
At the bottom of the tcp_write() function (just before return ERR_OK;) in tcp_out.c I simply added this line:
This basically makes every single call to tcp_write force an immediate output of the packet. In effect a tcp_write() tcp_output() combined into one function. It might even be better to create a new function in tcp_out.c called something like "tcp_immediate_write()" instead to maintain backwards compatibility with code that relies on the standard behavior. However, this solves my problem and allows me to continue to use the Netservices wrapper and all its goodness.
Thanks, Errol
You will probably want to remove the network switch from your setup and just directly cable the two devices to eliminate any latency the switch might add (I run my mbed ethernet directly cabled to my PC).
It seems to me (from reading between the lines of your additional info) that what you are really after is just the instant delivery of very small packets of data. TCP/IP is really designed to do the opposite - to reliably deliver large volumes data with an acceptable delay.
You seem to have gotten where you need to go, so nice work, but - CAN or UDP would have been better suited, if you had the whole thing to do over again :)
I completely agree. I use CAN (J1939 specifically) for many things around here and I have actually made a CAN->Ethernet gateway that uses UDP and Multicast utilizing the mBed platform which works great. Unfortunately on this project I am forced to use TCP but it's definitely not the right choice for lowest latency.

Supreme Court to Hear Case on Campaign Finances
By: Big 2 News Staff
Updated: February 22, 2013
The Supreme Court is once again taking on the tricky issue of campaign finance laws.
The high court has agreed to hear a challenge to individual donation limits in federal election campaigns.
The current limit for individuals to donate to political candidates is 46,200 dollars and 70,800 dollars to political action committees.
But Alabama donor Shaun McCutcheon a Republican says the restrictions violate the First Amendment.
He is challenging the Federal Election Commission on the donation caps.
The court will visit the case during the court's next term, starting in October.

Thanks for the info. This sounds like an issue in libexo, used in some parts of spacefm (and thunar).
The problem as I remember it is related to right-click in the file manager, which does not stay still, or something like that, is that correct ?
Taco, they stopped using HAL a long time ago, so their systems are fit to be configured the way the users (they are advanced users) want it. So they might see things differently, and Spacefm probably reacts differently too, according to what the settings in polkit are. (localauthority, and so on... )Archie : if you prefer to not use the hal enabled package it's perfectly ok, but maybe could you keep them a little while ? I just started testing your i586 package in a Vbox machine, and I intend to try it in a real install soon. For me it looks like it works perfectly. I didn't try the version for the isos being tested at the testing list.
Hi Archie, if you offer 4 versions to test, with and without, for 2 architectures... I might try them in KDE in vbox, or in usb stick with persistence... maybe vbox would be more convenient and for such tests it seems quite reliable these days. And now I have a machine with the right cpu and enough resources for that.Best thoughts too.
But I ain't testing it until y'all agree on what it should be built on. Let me know.
And about libexo, was is not a matter of having and using the libexo devel package to compile spacefm against it : or didn't I understand what it is really about ?
If you want to to test the 4 RPMS, I can run rpmbuild and repost for both 32 and 64 ... with enable-hal and standard builds.But I ain't testing it until y'all agree on what it should be built on.
libexo is an extension library to Xfce, and on Bonsai libexo-devel pulls in a 79mb download with 221mb installed. Includes a lot of stuff including doc-books. Doesn't seem relevant to Spacefm.
I have to agree with Hootiegibbon on this - stick to 32 bit for the time being. At least it will work on 64 bit. Probably stay with "--enable-hal" as mount/unmount won't work otherwise. As to platform - shouldn't make a difference. Some of the lighter, more stripped down versions may need tweaking, but it either works on all or it doesn't have legs. And the good thing about versions like Bonsai is they let you know real quick what is missing .

Announcer: "Remember that so called real estate bubble that's been predicted to burst for what seems like forever? (laughs)… well it certainly didn't happen last month… Canadian home sales rose almost 3% in Sept and 11% from the same month last year."
Brad Lamb: "We are the number one condo market for new development on the planet."
Announcer: "Brad Lamb is a RE broker and developer who has "been selling Toronto property for two decades, he says 2011 could be a record breaker."
Brad Lamb: "I'm building over 2000 condos across Canada at present, and I'd say that 50% of those are under 520sqft."
Announcer: "Yet there are worries that developers may be building too many condos in Toronto."
Will Dunning, economist: "… we don't know how they'll be absorbed in the market place."
Announcer: "Brad Lamb, who builds them, is not worried."
Lamb: "This talk of bubble is ridiculous. But, we're going to have recessions, we have them every 15 or 10 or 8 years, and when it happens, people are going to put their hands in their pockets and not buy real estate."

We had this tea while on vacation, right when we got home I was on the internet trying to see where I could buy some. Cooks' Nook is so prompt in shipping and great to deal with. I have ordered four times now, never an issue, and the tea is still as great as it was on vacation. | ||||
The most amazing tea! (5/5) | Jan 13, 2010 | Vanessa | US | |
The first time I tried this tea at my local coffee shop, I was hooked! The aroma is irresistible and the flavor is rich and is just the right blend of fruity and black tea. My friends who are normally not tea drinkers love this tea and ask me for it every time they come to my house. I'm glad I found this tea here. Now I won't have to pay the inflated price per pound at the coffee shop. | ||||

On paper, Julie Chen and Sharon Osbourne — the queen bees of CBS' girly gabfest The Talk — couldn't be more different. Chen, a pedigreed journalist, spent years rising up the ranks at The Early Show and hosting Big Brother. Osbourne, meanwhile, has passed the last decade-plus morphing from music manager to reality-TV pioneer and variety-show judge.

Every summer, Big Brother host Julie Chen warns viewers to expect the unexpected, but this year the game will really be turned upside down as 12 brand-new houseguests move in with four returning all-stars who aren't necessarily after the $500,000 grand prize.
After a judge denied CBS' request to prevent the airing of ABC's new reality program The Glass House -- which CBS believes to be a direct rip-off of its long-running hit Big Brother -- the network fired back Wednesday with a mock press release announcing the development of a new show called Dancing on the Stars, a blatant play on ABC's hit competition series Dancing with the Stars.

Not a real place. Juggalos don't go here when they die, that's just pretty stupid. Lots of people dont relize that ICP is a band, and as a band, they are here to entertain, not exactly to preach. The idea ICP has is to make the world a shangri-la, not to go there after death. A world without bigotry, racism, haters, etc. But, just like everything, all the haters who have NO idea what juggalos stand for and NO idea how we roll, have to make this world just a little bit worse by spreading hate and prevent juggalos from our goal.

1. a remote beautiful imaginary place where life approaches perfection : UTOPIA Now that you've found your paradise
This is your Kingdom to command You can go outside and polish your car Or sit by the fire in your Shangri-la ~ The Kinks |
2. | Shangri-la | ||
A fantastical place of wonder, amazement, bewbz and n00dz and a sub-heaven of Nexopia. Fairly similar to Juggalo heaven, but with less people dumber than cups of dirt and slightly less make-up. All who enter this Shangri-la rarely ever leave and are often moved to Denny's and assorted places with much drinkage. Hayl0wz also takes place due in part to this place and many a night are spent pwning n00bz. "Welcome to Shangri-la, (insert name). Plz send n00dz. Thx."
3. | Shangri-La | ||
A world after of before death, bordering on perfection; Paradise. Also an awesome song by the '60s band The Kinks. "Sit back in your old rocking chair
You need not worry you need not care You can't go anywhere Shangri-La" ~The Kinks "I'm going home to Shangri-la" |
4. | Shangri-La | ||
The most amazing place in the world. It is a secret casino near St. Louis, Missouri, in which a small, secret society, meets to take part in underage gambling, drinking, sex, and other debauchery unknown to the common public surrounding it. "The acts which take place in The Shangri-La will be none less than legendary in the years to come."

1) The Insane Clown Posse's word for "heaven" in their music. A utopia you go to after you die.
2) A place where everyone lives in racial harmony. 3) A place where women, however, are still referred to as "bitches". I walk in, it's Shangri-la] everything I dreamed of
Everybody and they momma got clown love Japanese, Lebanese, and Chinese, Portuguese, and southwest ghetto g's. (woowoo) Hangin' out with redneck truck drivers Instead of always givin' each other piledrivers I see my old homie, he died in a drag Chillin with two bitches, 'Whatup, Shaggs?' --From the song "Pass me by" off of 'The Great Milenko' |

Those small instruments are nice as is. It would be even more fun if they could be of some use not only at the hotel room or dark nights at home in the kitchen with a mute though. However if using it together with a section of front directed bell instruments as sort of a minicimbasso or whatever there is one thing that might not work ideally. The bell is upwards.
So one question to those that may have some impact, and someting to say, about further development of the model, is there any chance of either a version with exchangeable bells, normal up or forward directed as a 'mini' recording bell, or two different versions?
