Norwich agree fee for Hooper
Norwich have agreed a fee with Celtic for striker Gary Hooper.
Press Association Sport understands the two clubs have finally reached agreement over a player who has been pursued by Canaries boss Chris Hughton for some time.
The news may come as a blow to QPR boss Harry Redknapp, who thought he was in the driving seat to capture the prolific 25-year-old frontman after Rangers too had a bid accepted.

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
Hello Everyone,
I represent a small University Press based on Mexico, we are about to start a textbook series for K-8 and highschool levels so we're consulting the professionals about the best-suited typography for equations & formula input. The one with all the bells and whistles.
We hope you can help us with some suggestions.
Our considerations so far are:
Freda Serif A
Le Monde Livre
Thanks in Advance for your help.
All best.

I'm currently setting something using Electra and have a short passage with prime marks.
I'm wondering if anyone has made a list of serif fonts with decent prime marks?
So far I've tried Californian Pro, Palatino, Times... even Sim Hei Regular. Nothing seems to complement Electra.
Any suggestions?
Has anyone encountered an interesting hand-lettered or type-set "Q.E.D." before? It's used to mark the end of a mathematical proof. The contemporary digital version is, unfortunately, the "tombstone," a simple black square (yawn).
Rob Kimmel
Some scans from a book I picked up recently (for 25¢). Printed in 1904.
Interesting just to see how the type is set; complex fractions (all are all nut—no virgules to be found), the @ symbol for per-item cost, page structure, impressive engravings for illustrations, and the thoughtful mix of typefaces. Quite a complex project for metal type. All for the kids.
Yes, it has all the answers in the back.
I'm a Humanities person with embarrassingly scant knowledge of maths, so before I utilise these glyphs, it's best to confirm they're the same as those in the photo.
In Georgia, the matching glyphs appear to be "α", "θ", then either "σ" or "б".
The rest—other than the German double s and the << arrows—aren't available in the glyphs panel it seems.
Can anyone confirm?
Does anybody know about how old style figures are used in technical areas that use a lot of symbolic notation like math, most sciences, linguistics, logic, chess books, etc., if at all? I've never seen them in a work of any such discipline, though that's not saying much. I don't seem to recall them in any of the textbooks I used for these subjects, but perhaps I wasn't typographically "aware" at the time.
Thanks in advance.
As you might now, the long awaited, 15+ years, version 1.0.0 of STIX fonts have been finally released. However, the release disappointed many people who want to typeset mathematics with STIX fonts, as they neither released LaTeX support files nor supplemented the fonts with the new OpenType MATH table, ruling out any quality mathematical typesetting engine.
Fortunately, STIX were kind enough to release the fonts under Open Font License, so giving the community the power to scratch their itch and not wait yet another 15 years for next release.
Having experimented with an OpenType MATH version of STIX beta release, it was relatively easy to supplement the final release with MATH layout features, thanks to the powerful FontForge who never let me down, and so XITS was officially born.
Hello Experts! :D
I am working on a Journal of Science booklet and I am having some issues with some math equations. In their Word document they used Cambria Math to do their math equations. I have my body copy set in Adobe Garamond Pro. The math equations are not showing up.
Is there anything out of the Adobe Library 11 that will map the same as Cambria Math. I don't have Cambria Math on my computer to substitute what I am currently using.
Thanks for the help.
I am working on a redesign for a science magazine/journal and we need a sans serif font with as big a glyph set as possible, including Greeks and quantum symbols and as much math as possible.

Having reached a couple of major milestones in 2014, the organizing committee for the Paul Murr Memorial Golf Tournament received another feather in its cap this past week by being collectively named the Rotary Club of Acton Citizen of the Year.
The 30th-annual tournament raised more than $53,000 at this year's event in May to surpass the $1 million mark in funds raised for cancer research.
"It's something we're proud of, but the people we have to thank the most are the people who come out to the tournament and support us year after year," said committee member John McNabb.
"It seems like the same group of people every year. It's the first big tournament for the spring and I think that it's popular because of when it takes place. Being in early May, you take your chances with the weather— and we have had some cold and rainy days— we've been pretty lucky for the most part."
The tourney, which is much larger than most others because it has both morning and afternoon shotgun starts, draws anywhere from 200-225 golfers on the second Monday in May.
It began in 1985 as the inaugural Acton Cancer Society Golf Tournament and actually took place at the Victoria Park course in Guelph, raising a little more than $3,000, and later moved to Acton after the Blue Springs Golf Club was built.
Marg and John Hoare were the driving force behind establishing the the tournament as Marg volunteered for the Cancer Society and was trying to come up with a new fundraising idea.
Another of its founders, longtime Acton resident and avid golfer Paul Murr, died of pancreatic cancer in 1988 and the committee decided that the event would continue on in his name and memory.
"Heavy hitters," was how Bob MacKinnon of the Rotary Club described the makeup of the organizing committee.
"If you're from Acton, you'll recognize the names on this committee as being people who care a lot about their community and are always there to support it."
It's not the first time that a group has earned the Acton Citizen of the Year honour as the Fire Department and Citizens' Band have been previous recipients.
A dinner to honour the committee will be held at the Acton Branch of the Royal Canadian Legion on Saturday, Sept. 27.

The University
Tulane University
Across St. Charles Avenue lies Audubon Park, a 480-acre public park with jogging and bike paths, lagoons, an exercise course, horseback riding, a golf course, and one of the nation's finest zoos. Just a few blocks farther is the Mississippi River.
Tulane's campus is sized and situated so that students never feel hemmed in by the concrete of a major city. A walk from one end to the other takes 15 minutes. The University is also small enough to encourage an important sense of community. Off-campus housing opportunities surround the campus, enabling students to become a part of the larger New Orleans community as well.
The campus itself offers its own share of coffee houses and eating places. The gem of the uptown campus is the new Lavin-Bernick Center for Student Life, which opened in late 2006, bringing back to campus light-filled meeting and conference spaces for both formal and informal meetings, a food court, and the University bookstore. A Kinko's copy shop, full-service Whitney Bank, and Aveda day spa are available as well.
The Law School
Tulane Law School
The Tulane Law School student body comprises approximately 700 J.D. students, 55 LL.M. students, and 6 S.J.D. students. At least 45 states are represented in the student body as well as 34 countries.
The Program
Among the things that set Tulane Law School apart are the breadth and depth of its curriculum. Its curricular strengths include international and comparative law, maritime law, and environmental law.Tulane offers five LL.M. programs. Each of the LL.M. programs requires two full-time semesters in residence and satisfactory completion of 24 semester hours. Although there is no thesis requirement, degree candidates are required to write at least one paper in connection with a seminar in their field of interest or in fulfillment of a directed research project.
The five LLM programs include: LL.M. in Admiralty Law, LL.M. in American Law, LL.M. in Energy & Environment, General LL.M., and LL.M. in International & Comparative Law. For more information about the programs available, please visit this link: www.law.tulane.edu/tlsadmissions/index.aspx?id=14489
Those who hold a law degree from a law school outside of the United States may be interested in Tulane's JD program and may be eligible for advanced standing by virtue of coursework you have completed at their first law school. For additional information about advanced standing and the JD advanced standing application process, contact Carol O'Hea, Assistant Director, at [email protected] or call 504.865.5930.
Tulane also offers the S.J.D. program which is a very selective program, encompassing a small number of students who have completed an LL.M. program with distinguished records. For more information about the S.J.D. program, please visit this link: www.law.tulane.edu/tlsadmissions/index.aspx?id=14489
International students who already hold an LL.M. degree may be interested in the 14 Credit Hour Program. Louisiana Supreme Court ruled that foreign lawyers may take the Louisiana bar exam so long as they: (1) are authorized to work lawfully in the United States, (2) have completed legal training recognized as equivalent to the JD, and (3) have successfully completed a minimum of 14 credits from a US law school in core legal subjects. For more information about the program, please follow this link:
The Faculty
Over 40 full-time professors teach at the Law School. The faculty members of Tulane Law School have unusually rich and diverse academic backgrounds, enabling them to offer a curriculum that encompasses the broadest range of subject matter. As important as their commitment to teaching is their commitment to ongoing scholarship. Members of the faculty regularly publish books (including edited volumes), law review articles, and countless chapters in books, reports, essays, and book reviews.To learn more about the faculty at Tulane Law School, please visit this link: www.law.tulane.edu/tlsfaculty/index.aspx?id=276&ekmensel=30_…

Tuition and Fees
Tuition and fees for the 2014-15 academic year, including the summer course totals $49,956. The tuition and fees for the 2014-16 year will be set and released in March 2015.Financial Aid
Each year, Tulane Law School awards a number of partial scholarships or tuition waivers to full-time LL.M. candidates with superior academic credentials. Most go to international candidates enrolled in the various full-time LL.M. programs. The Maritime Law Center does have funding available for both U.S. and international full-time LL.M. in Admiralty candidates.Scholarships and tuition waivers cover a portion of tuition.

Students who are US citizens or who have permanent resident status in the United States may be eligible to borrow through the major loan programs available to law students--Stafford Student Loans (subsidized and unsubsidized), Law Access Loans, and Law Student Loans. Eligible candidates interested in these programs must file a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
International candidates who have a U.S. citizen co-signer may be eligible for a private educational loan. Sources of financial aid available to international candidates might include Tulane Law School partial scholarships or partial tuition waivers and numerous sources of outside funding, for example, the Fulbright Foundation, IIE, foreign governments, and other foundations.

New Orleans is the largest city in Louisiana and is the state's banking, judicial, medical, and cultural center. Located on the Mississippi River 50 miles above the Gulf of Mexico, New Orleans is one of the world's largest ports. The shipping industry has been the greatest contributor to the prominence of New Orleans as a center of admiralty law and international trade. As the South's port of call for 200 years, New Orleans has developed as a city of rich ethnic traditions.There is a hint of the history and culture of New Orleans in the food at almost any local restaurant. And students are delighted to find how affordable the internationally acclaimed Creole and Cajun cooking is. New Orleans plays host to some of the best music in the world, yet entertainment in the city is astonishingly affordable as well.
New Orleans is still a popular destination for tourists and is regularly the site of Super Bowls and Final Four basketball tournaments. Major conventions and other events are held here almost every day, including meetings of law-related entities--our Career Development Office regularly sets up meetings for students with potential employers who are visiting the city to attend professional meetings.
The Law School assists incoming students in finding housing in a number of ways. The Office of Admission maintains lists of students who have apartments but need roommates, students who need both apartments and roommates, and other individuals who have apartments available. The School also provides general information about apartment-hunting in New Orleans. During the summer months, a staff member is available to provide more specific information. In addition, the University offers a web-based roomate- and apartment-finding tool.Limited University-owned off-campus housing is available to graduate-level students at Tulane University. Law students may apply to live in the Papillon Apartments in the lower Garden District or the Deming Pavilion in the downtown medical center area.
International students who attend the summer English as a Second Language (ESL) course or the Intro course prior to the start of the fall semester may live in temporary, on-campus housing. Detailed information is made available to students during the spring months.
Student Life
More than 11,000 students are enrolled in Tulane's 10 academic divisions, including Newcomb-Tulane College, A.B. Freeman School of Business, Law School, School of Architecture, School of Continuing Studies, School of Liberal Arts, School of Medicine, School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine, School of Science and Engineering, and School of Social Work.The blending of such a variety of disciplines creates an unusually rich academic atmosphere. Tulane's many speaker programs, film series, stage productions, art shows and music programs make the University a major cultural center. At the same time, the relatively small size of each individual college preserves an identity and intimacy for students far more typical of a liberal arts college than of a large university.
Summer Program
Each of the LL.M. programs requires two full-time semesters in residence and satisfactory completion of 24 credits, 3 of which may be completed in a Tulane Summer Abroad Program. Admitted full-time Tulane Law School LL.M. students may begin the LL.M. program in the summer by attending one of Tulanes summer abroad programs in England, France, Italy, Germany, Greece, or The Netherlands. LL.M. students may take up to 3 credits of coursework in one of Tulane's Summer Abroad Programs; tuition is included in the academic year costs. International students must be in New Orleans by the start of the Introduction to U.S. Law course in late July.For more information about our Summer Programs, please visit this link: www.law.tulane.edu/tlsabroad/
Pre-LLM Course
Admitted graduate students who received the first law degree from a law school outside of the United States are required to participate in and complete the graduate orientation course, An Introduction to the Law of the United States, scheduled in advance of the fall semester.An Introduction to the Law of the United States is designed to familiarize students with the methods and structure of US law and legal education. The course includes almost 50 instructional hours in U.S. substantive law topics and introductory training in legal research and writing and law examination skills. The course also includes organized extra-curricular activities that help introduce students to each other, to Tulane University, and to the city and culture of New Orleans. This course is a fundamental part of the law school's graduate curriculum and is required for all incoming law students who hold a law degree awarded outside of the United States, including those from common-law jurisdictions (for example, the United Kingdom, India, New Zealand, Australia, and Canada). Students with law degrees awarded in Puerto Rico are strongly urged to take this course.
The course meets prior to the start of the fall semester while the campus and School are still relatively quiet and unpopulated. Our new LL.M. students are therefore able to use the relaxed atmosphere to their advantage to meet with faculty and administration, become familiar with the campus and its services, find housing, and build relationships with each other. Further, the faculty have the opportunity to provide necessary academic counseling and advising to our new graduate students.
Some admitted Tulane Law School LL.M. students will be required to take the ESL course during the summer prior to the start of fall classes. The English as a Second Language course is designed to improve students' abilities to communicate effectively in English at a professional level. Special emphasis will be placed on improving listening comprehension and oral presentation skills. The course will be taught for international LL.M. students at Tulane Law School and international MBA students at Tulane's A.B. Freeman School of Business.

John Deere 1026R or 2520 for 10 acres?
Hello, I'm new here and need some help with the same ole question....which tractor do I get?
This will be our first tractor so I have a lot of questions. We're closing on a foreclosure the end of Feb which has 11 acres. One acre around house has been maintained but the other 10, previous horse pasture, is overgrown, mostly weeds, no trees, just over grown weeds and brush. We have 3 horses that we've been boarding so are very excited about moving out of the city and maintaining our own horses on our own property.
So my question....Is a JD 1026r too small for the job? I went to my JD dealer right down the road from me, he was very helpful but said with that much land, I'd be better off with a JD 2520. He said a 1026r would do the job, just take longer and that I'd be working that tractor pretty hard?
He gave me a quote for both:
JD 1026r with FEL (D120) and Frontier RC2060 Rotary Cutter for $16448 after taxes
JD 2520 with FEL (200CX) and Frontier RC 2072 Rotary Cutter for $20900 after taxes
A $4500 difference, which maybe in the long run isn't too bad but honestly, we're tight, we'll have to finance... a difference of $275 or $350 a month.
I've looked at kubota's but honestly their pricing was very similar and I like the feel of JD more plus they are seriously 10 mins from my house. I've looked at used tractors but again are pricey and need to save the cash for other projects.
My wife prefers the 1026r (because of price), I like it a lot too but ****, those front tires are so small! I like the size for around the house, but the other 10 acres..I'm concerned. The 2520 I feel maybe better for us, but money is tight, love the size as it is still compact, just more hp, 72" mower instead of 60". greater lifting capacity. I don't want to tear up the yard either though so I go round in circles back to the 1026r. Small tires, too small, back to the 2520, round and round.
Also, another questions.... that RC2060 or RC 2072, can I use this to cut down the pasture without breaking something or should I borrow or rent a dedicated bush hog? The Kubota dealer said that I can so long as I cut as high as possible and then again set lower, worst case I'd burn a belt? Once it's cut down, won't be an issue.
Future projects..... drive way, hauling dirt, drilling fence post, hauling hay, etc. I told my wife with either tractor, we'll have to rule out round bales as there is no way with the 1026r and not sure about the 2520 with a 3pt hay spike?
Oh man.... any input would be appreciated!

Re: John Deere 1026R or 2520 for 10 acres?
I do not know what part of the US you are in but while shopping last year kubota was cheaper than Deere by a few thousand dollars with Kioti being seven thousand cheaper on a 50 hp machine. MasseyFerguson was equal in price to Kubota. It would seem to me that you need a little larger machine to do what you need like 30-35 hp. If your ground is uneven or hilly the wider the better for stability. The LS machines are also spoken of highly. If you buy to small now it will end up costing you more later. Just my thoughts hope they help

Re: John Deere 1026R or 2520 for 10 acres?
Rather than confuse by suggesting other models/brands(*) I say go with the larger of the two for this reason: if the smaller model comes up short you risk losing as much as the $$ difference, and getting jobs done, on the way to getting something with enough power. Plan for the biggest implement you'd use, since a big tractor can be throttled back for the others. btw: Best used deals are commonly offered by those who started too low & soon lived to regret it.
*I guess you already know that 'satisfaction is often inversely proportional to distance from a reliable dealer'. ;-)
Re: John Deere 1026R or 2520 for 10 acres?
Chris, I guess my question here is did the dealer size up those mowers for the tractors or did you choose them? For a bush hog type rear mower, the 1026 is gonna want a 4'. 5' will be too much, now the 5' would be best for the 2520 but could handle a 6' if its not worked too hard.
I think the 2520 might be a better choice for what your wanting to do. You need test drive them, see if you can demo them both, there is a huge difference between the two tractors...2007 JD 2305, 2008 JD 2520 w/200cx loader, Harbor Freight quick hitch, homemade pallet forks, 5' KK tiller, 5' KKxb disc, 4' landpride pulverizer, Frontier RB1072 blade, homemade 5 1/2' lawn roller at 3500lbs, 2005 John Deere 797 w/60" deck, 2009 John Deere 997 w/ 72" deck, 2005 JD HPX Gator w/power dump, 1998 Toro 455D 10.5' deck!

Some one mentioned on here the other day than no one ever regrets going bigger. So I'd say if you can swing the payments then go for the bigger one.
Have you looked at the John Deere 3005? It's a bare bones tractor but offers slot of power for the money. Don't let me confuse things though! Good luck!

Re: John Deere 1026R or 2520 for 10 acres?
the 2520 is a good little tractor that will surprise you with how much work it will do . i loved mine . i will say if you look and have the time to wait you can good some great deals on a used JD . my cousin just got a 2 yr old low hour 4320 for 20,000 otd . out of the two tractors mentioned go with the 2520 without a doubt . as for the rotory cutter i would check the used market for a nice used one . probably save a few bucks . good luck and enjoy that property.

Re: John Deere 1026R or 2520 for 10 acres?
I would go with the 2520.
The build and price is down on kubota but I think you could proabably get a L3200 Kubota 4WD, with a loader and rotary cutter for close to what the 2520 is. You would have a tracotr capable of safely moving round bales then.

I just traded from a 2305 to a 2720. It is expensive to trade up. The difference between the 1026 and 2520 is one is for mowing the yard and the other is for mowing the YARD .
Life is easier when you plow around the stumps.

Re: John Deere 1026R or 2520 for 10 acres?
I think they're both too small. I'm on my 3rd tractor in as many years and I can tell you, you're better to do it right the first time. I started with a used JD 955 but after lots of mechanical trouble bought a brand new Kioti CK30. After 1 year, I traded that for a Kioti DK45 and I finally have the right size tractor for what I do with it, and I'm only on 3 acres.
I can tell you're set on JD and you're also tight on budget. That's not a good combination. JD makes great tractors, but you pay for it. I really think you need to be in the 40 hp range, and with Deere (other than the 3038E - not a huge fan of that one, very light weight, very few features and doesn't spec out to any of the competition I was looking at) you'll pay a lot more than the quotes you got. On the other hand, Mahindra, LS, Kioti etc will give you the tractor you need in the price range you're looking at. Except for the 1 acre of lawn that you have, weight is going to be your friend, I'd look at some of the bigger, heavier options.

National Park Service Draws Criticism for Winter-Use Plan for Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks
I have been following this issue for some time now from a completely legal perspective. As Judge Sullivan's most recent opinion reads, he struck down the NPS' new permanent plan as being "arbitrary and capricious," which is a legal term of art which basically means there is no rational connection between the facts found and the choice made.
While the Organic Act creates two obligations for the NPS ("conserve the scenery and the natural and historic objects and wild life and to provide for the enjoyment of the same in such manner and by such means as will leave them unimpaired for the enjoyment of future generations"), the history around the passing of the Act, the Amendments to the Act (in 1970 and 1978), the NPS Management Policies, and judicial interpretation (from cases not involving Judge Sullivan, Brimmer, nor the issue of snowmobiles in Yellowstone) all support a legal reading and interpretation of the Act that favors conservation over use and enjoyment when the two are in conflict. Notice that nowhere in the Organic Act, nor anywhere in other Acts that the NPS must follow (NEPA, EDA, etc.), nor in the NPS Management Policies, is there anything about the economic integrity of a surrounding community being protected over preserving the National Park.
Now, the Organic Act has been interpreted to allow for use and enjoyment that causes impairment - as long as that impairment is of great value and necessary to fulfill the purposes of the Park, and the impact is minimized to the greatest extent possible.
Snowmobiles may be a great way to see the Park, and it is fact the machines and guidelines in use now are incredibly cleaner and minimize impact more compared to practices and machines of the past. The fact remains that there is still some impact, according to NPS' own science. The fact that impact is better than it was before is great, but really of no importance; same with the fact the impact may be less than that caused in summer by motor homes and other motorized vehicles.
Judge Sullivan stated NPS gave insufficient reason for why the impacts are necessary to fulfill the purposes of the park, and as a result, use and enjoyment are elevated as a goal over conservation. Therefore, what his ruling says is that even 540 is too many in light of the explanation given for that number, and he required the NPS to try again. He gave no other guidelines as to what they should do going forward. Theoretically, the NPS could come back to Judge Sullivan with the same number, along with a better explanation for why that number works in connection with the minimal impact, and Judge Sullivan would then have to allow such a plan.
However after Sullivan's ruling, the NPS stated they would not have time to come up with a new temporary plan for this season as they continued to work on a new permanent plan for the future. Yet, in early November, I think on the 3rd, they came out with a new temporary plan (the 318 limit), and opened up the public comment period. Then, 4 days later, Judge Brimmer makes his ruling. His express words say he cannot and is not overstepping his bounds with respect to Judge Sullivan's ruling, but in effect he has done just that since Sullivan stated the 540 number coupled with NPS' explanation of coming to that number was "arbitrary and capricious".
If Brimmer had ruled before the NPS came up with their new temporary plan of 318, then the NPS' decision to follow Judge Brimmer's order as opposed to Sullivan would be more understandable. But by coming up with a new temporary plan, then getting the new order from Judge Brimmer, and subsequently trashing the new temporary plan shows the NPS' is in fact ignoring Sullivan.
So where does that leave us? If you follow the actual law of this issue, the GYC has the better LEGAL argument on their side, as no where in any Act pertaining to National Parks and specifically Yellowstone is there any mention of the interests of the local economy. Unfortunately for Brimmer, the local economy is the main influence on the rationale he has used in his rulings throughout this entire issue. It seems the GYC was content with the 318 plan, which shows they are not some radical environmentalist group since they were not calling for the complete phaseouts of the Clinton era. And Judge Sullivan seems to state he would allow a certain amount in the park as long as the NPS could adequately support why that amount is necessary and the impacts are lessened to best extent possible.
To answer a question of Sabattis from earlier, the reason the GYC timeline seems wrong is that Tuesday the 2004 temporary plan, minus the sunset provision which originally terminated the use of the plan at the end of 2007, was made into law by the Bush Administration. It is true that Brimmer's order was on Nov. 7, but the NPS decision to follow it was signed into law on Tuesday, and no matter when Brimmer ordered that, the timeline is stating that it simply was made law on Tuesday.
The GYC waited to file their petition in Sullivan's court until the published decision by the NPS to follow Brimmer was made into law. I am not really sure why they did this, as they could have gone back to Sullivan seemingly as soon as the NPS published their decision in November to go back to the 2004 temporary plan and follow Brimmer's order.
As for this winter, it seems as though the 2004 temporary use plan will be in effect, unless Sullivan does something about it in the next couple days. I guess technically, he could do something about it in the middle of the winter season, but that just seems ridiculous to me. My guess is the new administration will come up with a new permanent plan that allows some snowmobiles but puts more of an emphasis on snowcoaches. I don't see the complete phaseout happening, but that is just my opinion.
Strictly legally speaking, Sullivan has followed the law throughout this issue more faithfully than Brimmer. That doesn't mean the law couldn't change. If this issue continues, its possible it could get to the Supreme Court, and they could decide that economic issues do play a role in the interpretation of the Organic Act. That of course is simply pure conjecture.
Sorry for the length of this comment, but I felt this needed to be said.
Wal-Mart Request Would Put a Super Center Next to The Wilderness Battlefield
Kurt, I find it interesting that you lament seeing the Golden Arches from the Olympic ski jump because nothing says crass corporatism to me louder than the Olympics. It is the very essence of commercial exploitation on steroids.
So if your view from this hallowed mountain spot is of the very symbol of mass commercialization maybe it was by design. There may have been a bidding war for the "official" Olympic viewshed, with the highest bidder being McDonald's instead of Starbucks.
Wal-Mart Request Would Put a Super Center Next to The Wilderness Battlefield
Frank C., there have been multiple zoning discussions involving the Spotsylvania-Wilderness-Fredericksburg battlefields.
No one is sitting on their hands, except perhaps for the fact that the local government does not have one overall land protection and development strategy for all these areas.
It is an extremely high-development prone area (on a major exit of Route 95), and the tendency by local government is to work on land use preservation one parcel/crisis at a time. Almost like spot zoning. It would be better if a concensus plan could be developed identifying both appropriate development areas. At one point there was a county planner who wanted to work that way, but one or two of the local elected officials either lacked his sophistication, or philosophy of planning.
Many parcels of land have been purchased, too often at the last minute, in the heat of a "develop it or preserve it" conflict. Many of these conflicts have involved numerous local voices showing up at hearings to protest an insensitive development. Several have been resolved, some of them involving a compromise both by developers and preservationists.
Previous efforts in the area to negotiate with Wal Mart have shown Wal Mart to be less open to working something out in common good than other developers, in the opinion of local groups. On example: when Wal-Mart proposed to develop George Washington's "Ferry Farm" in Fredericksburg, an NHL because of archeological value, there was no middle ground toward a compromise. In the perception of the local preservation group in their communications to Congress on Ferry Farm, they said you either raised the money to buy the land out from under Wal Mart, or Wal Mart built whatever it wanted, in the way it wanted to.
Frank C., I don't rightly know if Superintendent Smith has been out in front of this one or not. He, personally, is an Interpreter by background, without a career of land use protection strategies behind him. However, the second-level staff are well known for their expertise and tenacity from multiple land use fights throughout the 'reigns' of the last 4 or maybe 5 superintendents. My guess is this park has been way out ahead of this issue for a long time. This group has received a lot of support from Senator John Warner (R-VA), who is retiring at the end of the month. Warner also had a brilliant staff. They knew how to wait until local political support gathered on behalf of the protection of a specific site.
So, if I were to guess, I would think Superintendent Smith would be smart enough to back up all his Alpha-staff, but I would worry about what will happen with Sen. John Warner and his great staff gone. I would guess leadership will have to fall back on the Civil War land trust groups.
Wal-Mart Request Would Put a Super Center Next to The Wilderness Battlefield
I also doubt people would so rabidly protest an REI or Whole Foods. It's so easy to blame Wal-Mart, but in their defense, as they have also said, the area was zoned for commercial development. It's also at the intersection of two State highways.
A fair amount of blame here rests with government for its zoning decisions and for building major highways on or near "sacred" land.
An umbrella group formed to fight the big-box store, the Wilderness Battlefield Coalition includes Friends of Wilderness Battlefield, the Civil War Preservation Trust, National Trust for Historic Preservation, National Parks Conservation Association, Piedmont Environmental Council and Friends of Fredericksburg Area Battlefields.
Certainly these groups could have raised enough cash to buy the 55 acre lot in question. Why have they been sitting on their laurels until now?
And where has Superintendent Smith been up to this point? He slams Wal-Mart: "Wal-Mart's answer seems to be: It's zoned commercial, so we have no responsibility." I don't believe that is Wal-Mart's answer, but I agree that they do not have a responsibility in the zoning of the land.
Wal-Mart Request Would Put a Super Center Next to The Wilderness Battlefield
Kurt: I agree. So I guess I will be "Preaching to the Chior".
Basicaly, I have always believed that if you wish to control what occures on any piece of land, then you need to own that land. If you do not want to SEE what is done with somebody's land, then again, you need to own that land also.
We have enough land use and zoning laws. After you see what business has to go through so that they can open their doors for business, people would have more respect for the process.
I have as yet to ever see an occasion when Walmart, or any other business, go to the time and expence to open a business just so that they could "clutter up the landscape".
We recently had a Walmart store open up in our community. I view their store as just another option when I go shopping. They have never forced me to come into their store nor made me purchase any item. It is all free choice.
If you do not like a store, DO NOT SHOP THERE! I personaly do not shop at "Smoke Shops"or "Adult" stores, but I defend their right to exist within the same scope of laws that govern all "Growth".
Wal-Mart Request Would Put a Super Center Next to The Wilderness Battlefield
Beamis, as much as I'd like to hear your rebel yell...while Wal-Mart certainly is a favorite punching bag of many, I'd venture that folks would get similarly upset if Whole Foods or REI or Best Buy moved to develop this much acreage next to a park.
Heck, I was bummed when a nice open field on the outskirts of Park City was turned into a commercial development with two groceries, a hotel, timeshares, a bank, and more. Did you know you can see the Golden Arches from atop the Olympic ski jump?
As far as some "concerned group or individual" having moved to buy the land to preserve it, I'd hazard a guess that their pockets aren't quite as deep as Wal-Mart's.
Wal-Mart Request Would Put a Super Center Next to The Wilderness Battlefield
Not too surprising, considering the "Yellow Tavern" battlefield just North of Richmond is the site of an expansive mall complex today. The site where JEB Stuart received his mortal wound can be found nearby, after a tedious search through suburbia, surrounded by homes.
To have more of these sites compromised would be a travesty. Let's hope the coalition of groups listed above can influence the final decision as to where to build yet another supercenter.
Wal-Mart Request Would Put a Super Center Next to The Wilderness Battlefield
Would a Whole Foods or let's say an REI outlet cause as much ire from the NPT readership as a Wally World? If this parcel of land was so important to preserve you'd a thunk by now that some concerned group or individual would've purchased it. Am I right?
I'm sure the new store will sell a wide range of Civil War souvenirs and memorabilia, just like their Tuscaloosa, Alabama store which has a whole section devoted to the Crimson Tide or their Destin, Florida outlet that sells a wide range of seashells, sand dollars and conchs for way cheaper than the roadside rip-off shops strung along U.S. 98.
I can't wait to visit the new Wilderness Super Center when it opens for business. Think I'll buy me a Confederate infantry hat and give a great big rebel yell in the parking lot.
Wal-Mart Request Would Put a Super Center Next to The Wilderness Battlefield
Frank and Anonymous, you both hit on a point that comes up time and again when there's talk of development beyond a park's borders, whether it's the case of the American Revolution Center near Valley Forge, this Wal-Mart proposal, or oil and gas drilling in Utah.
Does an amicable solution exist? Where do a park's borders end, its viewsheds? What's appropriate in those settings?
My concern is that as more and more growth and sprawl occur, many of these places are going to become isolated islands and slowly wither on the vine. But private property rights are private property rights. That's not a complaint; that's just the way it is.
Wal-Mart Request Would Put a Super Center Next to The Wilderness Battlefield
Absolutely, Anonymous. If the land is outside the park and privately owned, the owner does have the right (at least under a free society) to develop the land. How long has this land been there, unused, sitting? How long has there been an opportunity for a conservation easement, for someone, like the Nature Conservancy or other concerned citizens, to buy the land and set it aside permanently?
But let the Wal-Mart bashing continue.
Let the looting continue.
Who is John Galt?
Wal-Mart Request Would Put a Super Center Next to The Wilderness Battlefield
I agree with the previous comment that this is not about Walmart. Would people be as concerned if it were a housing development? If the land is privately owned, does not the owner have the right to use the property as he/she pleases?
National Park Service Draws Criticism for Winter-Use Plan for Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks
Following this, what I keep noticing is the somewhat more timid stance on the issue that GYC has taken. First, when it appeared after Sullivan's ruling that they could have stopped the entire winter season, they suggested that 280 or so snowmobiles would be appropriate as a daily limit for this season. Before that, NPS was suggesting there might not be a winter season. That's when they came up with 318.
Then, when Brimmer's ruling comes down and NPS decides to go with 720 as a temporary rule, GYC decides to go back to Brimmer's court and makes a point of saying that they aren't going to worry about this winter season. I'd be curious why these tactical choices have been made.
Is it simply to fight the characterization that GYC is somehow a radical environmental organization? (wish they were, but they're not). Or, is their pressure from within to make sure that there remains some snowmobiling in Yellowstone?
In any event, we're still smarting over the Royal Teton Ranch deal over buffalo -where GYC and other groups have raised money in support of a deal that spends a lot of money to the Church Universal and Triumphant for not much (perhaps less than not much) for bison. And, others on the wolf issue have noted that GYC has supported de-listing the wolf, one of their people even blasted the feds recently in a very conservative newspaper in Cody, Wyo.
So, what is the deal here?

Jim's Eclectic World -
World War II Valor in the Pacific National Monument is Established by Presidential Proclamation
Why would President George W. Bush have used the word "Valor" to name this national monument?
Is "Valor" the best word to describe a national monument or national historical park, or the best description of this national monument? There is no "valor" or any comparable word, in the title of Valley Forge, or Gettysburg, or Shiloh, or Cowpens, or African Burial Grounds, or Guam/War In the Pacfic.
Are these the best exemplars of "Valor" represented in the Pacific war?
Does "Valor" come closest to describing what makes each site within this new National Monument distinctive? I would have thought the key story with the USS Arizona was an unprovoked sneak attack, perhaps adding the related story of the vulnerability of the American Fleet and our sailors in the way they were positioned at Pearl Harbor. The heroism of American sailors fighting to save their doomed ship and comrades seems to be the equal of the greatest stories of valor in the war in the pacific; but, were there not many, many examples of equal valor by Americans all over the Pacific? With Attu, I had thought the key story was the only occupation of American soil; my history books always said the war in the Aleutians was treated, and was, a sideshow -- not to take anything away from the suffering and courage of American troops and Aleuts. But is Attu particularly notable for "Valor?" And, is "Valor" the best way, or first way, to describe what makes the Tule Lake Relocation center nationally significant?
Is it a good idea to stick descriptive words of human behavior in the titles of national parks? It the past, the name of the place itself has overwhelmingly had the greatest dignity and meaning.
Why would the President in this case so title a new national monument? Would somebody in the National Park Service have recommended the word "Valor," after careful professional analysis, to the President? Something the NPS apparently did not do for two of his other national monuments, African Burial Ground and Governors Island: in their way, couldn't each of them have an argument for a valorous history?
Or did the President choose this title because he was trying to bring attention to himself, he was pandering, after a decidedly un-valorous Presidency, and trying to enhance his "legacy?"
National monuments, national parks, don't need this President's editorial opinion of the significance of the experience of the participants at each one of these sites. The experience of the heroes and/or the perpetrators stands for itself, just as it does in all national historical parks.
Wal-Mart Request Would Put a Super Center Next to The Wilderness Battlefield
If it isn't Walmart, will it just be some other development? Walmart is always an easy target bash. The real issue is what to do about this property if it is important to the battlefield.

Walmart = Greed.....plain and simple.

World War II Valor in the Pacific National Monument is Established by Presidential Proclamation
While I am certainly happy that those sites are protected as Monuments and Memorials , I hope this National Monument will not stay for long. This hotch-pot of nine different sites in three states and under the jurisdiction of four cabinet departments will be hell to administer and impossible to cherish as a visitor.
Hopefully congress will create some decent umbrella park unit for all Hawaiian Wold War II sites, the Alaskan sites are out of the focus anyway and no one cares how they are administered. And finally Thule Lake deserve to become unit in its own right. A NHS would be nice, following Manzanar and Minidoka. Or to think bigger, how about a highly visible Memorial for the Japanese internment in downtown LA or SF at the site of one of the assembly centers? Besides the actual internment/concentration camps that were of course in very remote parts of the country. Have any of those first assembly points been in a federal building that still is owned by the federal government? Could a part of the first floor be cleared as a small museum and visitor center? Something along the African Burial Ground NM in Manhattan?
National Park Service Draws Criticism for Winter-Use Plan for Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you're confusing Judge Brimmer with Judge Sullivan when you refer to who wanted the Park Service to revert to the 720 limit "because of the inherent impossibility of going through all the necessary procedures to set a new limit in time for the 2008-2009 Winter Season."
Indeed, as I read Judge Sullivan's ruling it's silent on directing the NPS on how to remedy the problems/flaws raised by the plaintiffs. Rather, it was Judge Brimmer who directed "that the NPS shall reinstate the 2004 temporary rule until such time as it can promulgate an acceptable rule to take its place."
As to whether the NPS had enough time between Judge Sullivan's ruling and the Dec. 15 winter opening day to develop a new rule, well, the agency has nearly a decade of studies, including two full-blown EISes as well as a Supplemental EIS. to turn to, and had come up with a plan in time for this winter when Judge Brimmer ruled.
Agencies seem to be able to move with incredible alacrity when it's politically expedient to do so.
National Park Service Draws Criticism for Winter-Use Plan for Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks
The timeline provided by the conservation groups seems pretty disingenuous. Normally in a timeline you place events in the order that they occurred - only makes sense, right? In this case, though, they put the "Bush Administration published a rule authorizing up to 720 snowmobiles a day", which occurred today on December 9th *before* the US District Court in Wyoming ruling that plainly mandated a 720 snowmobile rule that occurred on November 14th. Its quite some timeline that places December 9th before November 14th, eh?
Moreover, the timeline provided by the conservation groups completely mischaracterizes the ruling from Judge Sullivan when they imply that Judge Sullivan contemplated the possibility of the Park Service implementing a limit lower than 720 snowmobiles per day for the 2008-2009 Winter Season. The plain language of Judge Sullivan's opinion clearly contradicts this, as Judge Sullivan explicitly sets the 720 limit for the 2008-2009 Winter Season because of the inherent impossibility of going through all the necessary procedures to set a new limit in time for the 2008-2009 Winter Season. So Judge Sullivan made it clear that he was reverting to the 720 limit for 2008-2009 in order to give the rulemaking (and near-certain protests) time to play themselves out, while giving certainty for the short term in 2008-2009.
I know that the conservation groups want to see a bogey man behind every corner, but I don't think there's a single career official in the government that's familiar with the time needed for rulemakings and protests that would have made any different decision in this instance. As much as the conservation groups might wish that we lived in a world where the snowmobile interests could not protest the 318 rule, we live in a world where the snowmobile groups will get their day in court, just as the conservation groups got their day relative to the 540 rule. In the meantime, wishful thinking won't change the plain reading of Judge Sullivan's decision - and quite frankly they lose a little bit of credibility to me the longer they persist in it.
Shenandoah's Camp Hoover
My wife and I hike to Hoover Camp when we're in the neighborhood at Skyline Drive. Last year we had the opportunity to be the first "visitors" to receive a guided tour of the renovated facilities. What a treat! We were just nosing around peeking into the windows when the curator came over to talk to us. We started to ask some questions and the woman just smiled and invited us in and said this would be an opportunity for her to practice her presentation. We, of course, obliged her and had a delightful visit.
The place has been restored quite well and the facility is a good look into the past. Lots of photos and you can really get a good sense of the history there. I would imagine sumer nights there would get rather hot and humid.
This place is quintessentially "rustic." I don't know about Jimmy Carter but I can guarantee you Amy didn't have much of a good time when they stayed there! The fishing stream was nearly bone-dry when we were there but if there's water - and fish - this would, indeed, be a great way to pass the time.
The hike to get there is (I think) close to 2.5 miles and probably nearly 1,000 feet in elevation. Going back up can be a bit of a workout for those folks in less-than-optimal condition. This hike gives your knees a good workout. You can schedule a ride down to the camp to see it, too. I think it's somewhere around $12 for the round trip (I may be wrong about that). If you look at a topo you'll see this is a winding road that wraps around the hollow to get there. I can't imagine what it was like in the good old days when you would most certainly sink to the axles in crummy conditions.
This is a nice hike and you won't encounter many - if any - visitors.
NRDC Calls For Endangered Species Act Protection for Whitebark Pine Tree
Should we not be concerned for the trees because of their own qualities?
If you aren't among the charismatic megafauna, good luck getting protection...unless, of course, you have some economic value or direct health benefit to humans. Unfortunately, you're not going to get most people to think of conservation in anything but an anthropocentric context. If you want a bog plant, a not particularly attractive tree, a rodent, or a worm protected, you gotta tie it to something charismatic or monetarily valuable. Fortunately, ecosystems are such that these links are readily there and don't need to be contrived. It's just a shame that the tactic is necessary at all.

Interior Officials Release Rule Change to Allow National Park Visitors to Arm Themselves
Anyone have a link to the pre 1979 (?) NPS rules (exactly) before they initiated the ban on open weapons in the parks?
Interior Officials Release Rule Change to Allow National Park Visitors to Arm Themselves
Very well stated. I concur. I don't understand the panic of having a licensed and trained hiker or camper in the wilds with you. Some of these writers must go to some very trashy and over crowded campsites. Drunks? Guess I get too far off the beaten path in most cases. As far as wild life dangers go, I've never had a problem because I didn't do anything stupid like leave food out or not watch what was going on around me. Never had to kill a snake and move rattlesnakes out of the road. Am aware there are the occasional rabid animals that will attack and defy all the "normal" behavior patterns and that's when you want a sidearm.
Interior Officials Release Rule Change to Allow National Park Visitors to Arm Themselves
Thank you for your thorough arguments here. I must say I do enjoy a good debate.
And I applaud you for your conviction to your beliefs, as I would hope you would so for me. Believe it or not, I try embrace all viewpoints and do not automatically dismiss those whose opinions differ from my own. But this being a forum set up for comment and debate, I cannot resist the invitation.I will tell you that I am not an employee of the BATFE. (The standard abbreviation is actually ATF.)
So, someone who feels as strongly as I do about keeping guns out of our National Parks could only be an employee of a Federal law enforcement and regulatory agency? A fair question, and one that I would probably ask if I were on your side of this debate, feeling as passionately as I do. However, I am not an ATF employee.I guess I feel so strongly about this because I was not brought up in a household that owned guns. But then again, there are many gun owners and enthusiasts that also believe personal firearms have no place in the parks. Only time will show us all how this new rule will play out.
Again I will say that I do not wish to overturn any law, governmental, universal, natural, or otherwise, that you feel grants you a right to protect yourself. I would however hope that we are all following the same rules set forth for the society we live in, and operating within the established guidelines to effect change if we see fit to do so.Thanks to you, Capt., and all bloggers here, I have enjoyed this debate a great deal. I think we can all agree that no matter what happens with this new rule under the incoming administration, the debate will never go away.
NRDC Calls For Endangered Species Act Protection for Whitebark Pine Tree
I was able to meet Louisa Wilcox of NRDC in person for the first time the other day at a presentation I and my group were giving on the buffalo situation in Yellowstone. She has a lot of great ideas of things.
On the whitebark pine and grizzlies, I've got a more general question. I've read that grizzlies are highly adaptive and have for instance taken a liking to a lot of exotic species that have replaced what used to be their habitat. Is there some hope that grizzlies could survive even if the whitebark pine continues to decline?
On the other hand, do we need to justify our concern for the whitebark pine because of its importance to other species? Should we not be concerned for the trees because of their own qualities? It's interesting to me how we seem to have expanded the moral community to include large wildlife - it's obvious that they need protecting - but we still haven't gone a long way toward other species only deemed important if they provide something in the moral community some other good. I guess we are still moving in the right direction, though, on Aldo Leopold's scale.

RomneyŌĆÖs ŌĆśWith MittŌĆÖ smartphone app mocked for misspelling ŌĆśAmericaŌĆÖ | The Raw Story The app allowed users to shoot a photo with their phone, then emblazon it with one of 14 pro-Romney banners. Supporters could then upload their pictures to Twitter or Facebook. ŌĆ£We thought this would be a fun, easy way to showcase support,ŌĆØ said the campaignŌĆÖs digital director, Zac Moffatt. Instead, hundreds of waggish users seized upon the banner that said ŌĆ£A Better AMERCIAŌĆØ and superimposed it on everything from spelling dictionaries to ŌĆ£The SimpsonsŌĆØ character Ralph Wiggum. ==================================================================== Looks like someone should be looking for a better QA department.
Yes, I made reference to this in another thread, pointing out the MSM's hypocrisy regarding how they are completely ignoring the fact that the President personally insulted and offended about 38 million Poles, but they made sure they had the time and space to report on this. :bricks: That's all to be expected though. Heck, if I was an Obama supporter I would want to talk about anything and everything besides the actual issues affecting our country.
riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight..... On CNN.com right now: 1) Romney finally clinches GOP nomination 2) Ticker: Trump's fiery 'birther' defense 3) Blitzer-Trump 'birther' smackdown 4) What Mexicans want in candidates 5) 'Death camp' words trouble for Obama 6) Romney iPhone app misspells 'America'
Actually, if you do a search on Google, you'll see the Obama gaffe appears to be well covered by the MSM, while the Amercia gaffe is not well covered (nor should it be in my opinion). That said, I wish the MSM would do a better job covering Florida guv's efforts to disenfranchise thousands of voters down in Florida. Maybe they think he's disenfranchising conservatives?
You see Patters, that's the problem. You have to do a google search to find the MSM coverage of the tremendously insulting thing the President said, something which an entire nation was deeply offended by. Whereas a stupid spelling mistake - made not by Mitt Romney himself but rather some anonymous member of his campaign staff - is garnering top billing headlines. What in the world are you talking about?!? I just looked up 12 MSM news websites and the Romney misspelling was mentioned prominently on each and every one whereas only 2 give equal billing to Obama horribly insulting remark. You have a very interesting definition of "not well covered."
It's a good thing you're a liberal Jack because I once got an infraction and was banned from a thread for saying virtually the exact same thing you've just said here. But as a liberal you don't need to worry about silly things like forum rules, so carry on. :singing:
Actually, I've been infracted and banned from threads a bunch. Like when I called you a troll, even though you've basically admitted being as much. So, even though you love to play the victim and make yourself out to be oh-so-oppressed around here, sorry, but that dog don't hunt.
Double Standard In News Coverage In Political Shenanagans In Poitical Partys Especially In Racial Incidents The left wing liberal Media are masters at it
The Bad news: Someone on Romney's staff probably got fired for this oversight. The GOOD news: Romney loves to fire people!
If the #1 news network is FOX If the #1 news paper is The WSJ If the #2 news blog is Drudge How is the media "left wing and liberal"? ( the question is rhetorical )
Gosh....I gotta tell you, I just watched Romney's "Better America" video. 2:20 minutes of some really happy, prosperous, contented looking people - very upbeat and positive about "restoring" America to what it once was. From the looks of it - all that translates into "white." The Promise of America - YouTube For those who don't like wasting time on video - here's a montage of all the featured Americans.
You need to put that into a much larger font size. (oh, wait, you're not so needy that you're essentially screaming for attention? )
...because the next thousand are left wing(also rhetorical)? You have a valid point that deserves consideration, but so do I.
Fox may be the #1 cable news outlet, but it's a distant 4th to the real networks. Ratings - TVNewser Evening News Ratings - TVNewser PS, for the guys with LEET MAFF SKILLZ WOOT WOOT, these numbers are essentially the same as the weekly numbers. They are reporting a daily number averaged over the month or week. We often leave the reality-based news out of the conversation and just repeat the ignorant meme that Fox leads all news channels, assuming news channels means cable news outlets ("Choose your news" programs.) When righties complain about the "mainstream media" they're complaining about better reporting and fact-checking, and making the veiled claim that only Fox (on television) has the unvarnished "truth." Rightists on bulletin boards love to add to this their favorite websites, ranging from Drudge for the merely dishonest to any of the yet worse sites that make no attempt to disguise their racism, misogyny, homophobia, antisemitism, and/or xenophobia. PFnV
Also need to consider who owns or runs these media outlets. Are the "liberal media" run by an abnormally larger % of lefties? Or are they skewed toward Republicans who have decided to use their assets as a mouthpiece for the other side?
I really don't know who the "MSM" meme is supposed to fool. The rightist media mouthpiece, Fox, sponsors rallies for political parties; makes unabashed statements of affiliation within their news programming; and most recently, has produced what amounts to a four minute campaign ad for Mitt Romney they call a "report." Now, the other "choose your news" network, MSN, is plenty tilted leftward. CNN is centrist, attempting to cover the whole day with news on the model of the network news standard. Complaining that every newscast isn't a pamphlet for your preferred bias is pretty silly.
