This is an issue of great concern for our community, especially beleaguered home owners who live on N. Patrick or N. Henry Streets and are already prey to vibration, noise, cracks in their homes' foundations, and safety hazards from pass-through traffic. They also face the potential seizure of the much-needed parking lanes for dedicated bus rapid transit.
Word is that a certain Council candidate wants to override the unanimous findings of the citizen member Work Group. Why? Because Fairfax County may have later through-traffic transportation needs.
The Work Group concluded that Corridor A should not be pursued and no dedicated lanes provided. It seems Fairfax County has decided to terminate its Richmond Highway bus rapid transit at Huntington Metro.
It's bad enough that Alexandria citizens are once again being prepared on the sacrificial altar to appease Fairfax County commuters, but are we also getting the squeeze play from Arlington?
The candidate's recently published campaign finance disclosure form indicates he's received money from Arlington County's transit mouthpiece, Chris Hamilton. Mr. Hamilton's official title is Commuter Services Chief for Arlington County's Department of Transportation , and he is also the author of CommuterPage Blog.
So why in the context of City politics do Alexandrians matter less than our non-voting neighbors?
When Planning Commissioner Stew Dunn is asked the question -- often in joint meetings -- the pass-through traffico Planning Commissioner typically says no.
"No" is a good answer. Perhaps the best answer.
The Growler received an E-mail on Sunday from Justin Wilson about this blog posting. Here is the Growler's response to Mr. Wilson:

after that shot... i'm starting to believe.
love seeing him finally catch & shoot with some confidence!
Staying positive here.
Kid is showing confidence in his shot and instinctiveness on D. Running the offense and moving the ball well. Fix that hitch in his FT shot and uhh he's gonna be beast mode come April.
Endorse Rivers potential greatness below.
after that shot... i'm starting to believe.
love seeing him finally catch & shoot with some confidence!
Also, can I just say amen to letting Rivers run the 2nd unit? Brian Roberts is a fricking boss off the ball and Rivers is a G with the ball in his hand.
Wheres all his haters now?
Though, keep in mind its only one game. Hes going to have his struggles, but nights like this make it easier to believe in him.
Stay patient. He'll reward us soon enough.
"I'm not going to allow my putative owner to answer that question, this is an NBA related press conference. Paul Tagliabue and Roger Goodell have collectively sung their praises of Tom and if uh ESPN has a problem with that tell Mr. Skipper to call me at my office."
I like the improvement, but I still see that Rivers falls/trips easily with little or no contact. I'm being totally serious when I say this: are his shoes too big or too loose? I can't think of any other reason for his losing balance like that (other than an inner ear infection)
Dude is 20, remember everyone was like tyreke evans is way better than harden, look at their rookie year! Ya how did that turn out. Rivers needs time. He gets to the rim at will and is a boss with the ball in his hands and shows excellent vision. Believe this, his shot will come, he is a super hard worker and ur shot is the easiest thing to fix. If we can draft Mcadoo from UNC and trade vasques and a pick for Cousins:
that is a serious lineup in 3 years
I'm excited for Austin Rivers. I can't wait until he shuts up all the negativity towards him
Lol the title of this thread made me think of something else.
Its hard to say that his game was better looking than 14 and 6 with only one turnover, but it was. Dude was hitting some tough shots.
Also, after tonight, Rivers is shooting 41% from the arc (9/22). Check it if you don't believe me:
Check the Rivers haters thread over at RealGM forums. 6 pages long and counting.
Boy is going to explode sooner than later and they'll be eating sweet humble pie.
This is very good for a 20 year old rookie learning a new position... I thought his assist/turnover ratio would be terrible but dude is looking like an awesome passer. Think he will be a very good combo guard, russel westbrook, jrue holiday type.
Harden averaged 9ppg, 1.5ast and 3rpg as a rookie with 1.7 TO rate. I see austin surpassing these #'s by the end of the season.
Haha, and Damian Lillard (who puts up some of the most inefficient numbers in the league) had a 4-18 night against Detroit tonight. He is also averaging 3.3 TOs per game and shooting 44% from the field. Oh yeah, and he was drafted as a senior while Rivers was drafted as a freshman. People are actually talking about him for ROY, and Rivers is way outplaying him in terms of taking good shots and playing within the offense (both were labeled chuckers). Rivers is a better defender too.

Comments about Cane Creek 40 1 1/8" ZS Upper Headset:
The Cane Creek 40 headsets are the best deal out there. The parts are interchangeable with the 110 as well. I have these on all my bikes, including the 'cross bikes. If you ever upgrade to a different size fork there are plenty of parts available to change a lower cup and fork crown race. No need to buy a whole new headset! So simple and easy to use. Take a beating and hold up to multiple mtn bike adventures with dirt and water. Stays tight and smooth.

Jackson Browne Biography & News

About Jackson Browne
About Jackson Browne
A musician with an insightful lyrical sense, Jackson Browne is a Grammy Award nominee and an inductee in to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Delivering compelling albums like "Solo Acoustic, Vol. 1" and "Time the Conqueror," he has sold over 17 million copies in the US alone. Jackson Browne Tickets present you with the chance to see a great performer.
Indeed, Browne is known as one of the most iconic singer/songwriters of the 1970s, and later tackled socio-political themes that went hand-in-hand with his social activism. From his time spent with the early version of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band to writing for the likes of Bonnie Raitt and Linda Ronstadt, all the way to the debut album hit "Doctor My Eyes," Browne's career highlights are many. He even co-wrote the Eagles' first smash, "Take It Easy," and even today continues to work side-by-side with some of the biggest names in music.
To know the essence of Jackson Browne, one must see the work he has put in to organizations like MUSE (Musicians United for Safe Energy), Amnesty International and the Christic Institute. He is an activist as much as he is an artist, and dedicated himself to those efforts for quite some time. It wasn't until 2008 that he would release "Time the Conqueror," his first true studio album in a six year period, that many would realize how much his advocacy and involvement with other issues had left his solo career a bit in the shadows.
On April 1, 2013, a 23-song, two disc set called "Looking Into You: A Tribute to Jackson Browne," was released. It featured covers of Browne's songs by superstars like Raitt, Lyle Lovett, Don Henley and Bruce Springsteen.

Mikan and Hotaru are best friends! (Well, according to Mikan, anyway. Hotaru doesn't seem to care.) Then one day, Hotaru is escorted away in a fancy black car, apparently scouted by a school in Tokyo called "Alice Academy." Crushed at the loss of her favorite pal, Mikan scurries after her, determined to enroll, too!
But Alice Academy is a mysterious place. Can Mikan tough it out in a school where explosions, superpowers, giant baby chicks and axe-wielding teddy bears are the norm? But it's not as if she has a choice, because once students enter Alice Academy, there's no escape!

In show business, as in life, success breeds imitation. Orange County is about to see an arena-show version of "How to Train Your Dragon" (it swoops into the Honda Center on Thursday) because the 2010 DreamWorks animated film was so successful, naturally.
But it isn't always that easy. The 13 lifelike dragons that screech, lumber around, spit fire and fly throughout the massive touring production wouldn't have been possible without "Walking with Dinosaurs."
That popular arena show employed fearsome and realistic prehistoric reptiles made by Australian company Global Creatures, which brought new technologies and materials to the art of theatrical robotics and made the long-dead beasts seem thrillingly alive.
"I was really taken by the work that they did," said Bill Damaschke, co-president of production at DreamWorks Animation. "It was beautiful.
"At the time that I saw ('Walking with Dinosaurs'), we were in development for the film version of 'How to Train Your Dragon.' I talked to Jeff (Katzenberg, CEO of DreamWorks Animation) and said that if we find success, there is a group of people who do really amazing work and they could create something special and unique for us. For the size of show we envisioned, I thought they'd be perfect."
The production is huge. The largest of the dragons weighs 1.6 tons. Most require three operators: one underneath to drive the massive robotic puppet across the floor and two who operate its finer movements and sounds from a control station in the audience.
Some of the creatures fly. Others blow smoke rings. And "Dragon" contains a special effect no children's show these days seems to be without: one of the beasts has flatulence. (Don't worry, parents, it involves confetti and nothing else.)
Katzenberg green-lighted the "How to Train Your Dragon" arena project after he and other DreamWorks staff traveled to Houston about five years ago to see "Walking with Dinosaurs." "Dragon" began in Australia and made its American premiere late last June in Wilkes-Barre, Penn.
Moving the arena show from town to town and performing it up to three times a day is a massive undertaking that involves 30 semitrucks and a crew of almost 100 actors, management and crew. In many respects, though, it's old-fashioned theater. The dragons are not preprogrammed; all movements and sounds are performed live by the operators.
In "How to Train Your Dragon," a young Viking named Hiccup has been raised to hate and fear dragons. His people would like to exterminate the terrifying beasts.
But Hiccup befriends a dragon he names Toothless, and he discovers that the creatures aren't nearly as fearsome as they seem. They even allow people to ride on them if properly trained.
Therein lay a challenge for the show's designers.
"The story pretty much needs Hiccup to fly at least two times on Toothless," Damaschke said. "We looked into creating the effect with puppets (playing the human characters) but concluded that no, it really needs to happen (with an actor)."
A complex flying rig was devised. "Designing something that could take (Hiccup and Toothless) all over the stage and yet be able to tour the show easily, that was a huge, huge challenge," Damaschke said. "Creating a great special effect and creating something that's easy to take down and put back up are two entirely different things."

Cadet & Beret
Cadet cap take the rugged style of the military and applies it to everyday fashion. We carry jeep caps that take the look of a ball cap just a little further. We also carry French beret hats, and jeep combat hat, that bring classic style but give it a modern twist. These hats come with an adjustable strap closure in the back for easy customization. A unique relatively unknown hat type we carry is the Tam beret. The tam style sets itself apart from a beret in that it has a Toorie or pom-pom in the middle of the cap as well as an external headband. A knit beret cap started as a flat wool cap that was worn by peasants, but in the 1920's it became more fashionable and was later adopted into the military. Below you will also find crocheted beret, drill sergeant hat, adjustable jeep hats. Knit cadet hats and berets are the perfect accessory for winter.

Leadership Lessons from Afghan Girls School Founder, Razia Jan, 2012 Top 10 CNN Hero
LUNCHEON 11:30 a.m.; LECTURE 12:00 p.m.
Razia Jan was born in Afghanistan, but moved to Duxbury, Massachusetts in 1970, where she ran a small tailoring business, and served as President of the town's Rotary Club. Following the September 11th attacks, she arranged to send 400 homemade blankets to the Ground Zero rescue workers and went on to organize the sending of 30,000 pairs of shoes to Afghan children.
A trip she made back to Afghanistan a year later showed her the suffering of girls in her home country and broke her heart. The way that women had been oppressed by the Taliban moved her and she resolved to give up the comforts of her life in the U.S. to help them. Razia started the Ray of Hope Foundation, raising money to build a school for girls in Afghanistan, and in 2008 moved back to run the school, which currently has nearly 350 female students ranging from Kindergarten to 8th grade.
The day the school opened, another school across town suffered an attack with hand grenades and 100 girls were killed. Razia has a stone wall installed around the school to protect her students. There are guards who test the water every day, to ensure it isn't poisoned. Adults even escort the children to the bathroom to make sure they don't try to drink the tap water. The air quality of the classrooms is checked every morning to ensure that there is no gas. Razia is one of many who believe that peace will come through education. She believes that by educating these girls, change will come to the whole country. She meets with the male relatives of each girl throughout the year to ensure they are still supportive of her education. The men are very proud of their daughters now. She also maintains good relationships with the local community, whose support is vital.
In a culture that is still hostile to women in many ways, the Zabuli Education Center is a haven for the girls. They have a desire to learn and are grateful for this rare opportunity. With their new computer lab, "they can touch the world just sitting in this school" and "the knowledge is something that nobody can steal from them" says Razia.
Ascetics, Warriors, and a Gandhian Ecological Citizenship: Thinking through M.K. Gandhi
LECTURE 6:45 p.m. PARENTS DINING ROOM
Farah Godrej has already been called a "leader of the new generation of scholars" after the release of her first book. Cosmopolitan Political Thought: Method, Practice, Discipline (New York: Oxford University Press, 2011) asks the question of what it might mean for the very practices of political theorizing to be cosmopolitan. It suggests that such a vision of political theory is intimately linked to methodological questions about what is commonly called comparative political theory - namely, the turn beyond ideas and modes of inquiry determined by traditional Western scholarship. It is therefore an argument for applying the idea of cosmopolitanism--understood in a particular way - to the discipline of political theory itself.
As Farah Godrej argues, political theorists must reflect on their perspectives inside and outside various traditions and immerse themselves in foreign ideas, languages, histories, and cultures - ultimately relocating themselves within their disciplinary homes. The result will be a serious challenge to accepted solutions to political life.
The book critiques both traditional cosmopolitanism and comparative political theory and brings normative, rather than critical, perspective to study of non-western political texts. Cosmopolitan Political Thought has been called "fascinating", "bold and timely", and "destined to transform existing relations in political theory".
Farah Godrej is Associate Professor of Political Science at the University of California, Riverside. She received her doctorate from Georgetown University and joined the department in 2006. Her areas of research and teaching include Indian political thought, Gandhi's political thought, cosmopolitanism, globalization, comparative political theory, and environmental political thought. Her research appears in journals such as Political Theory, The Review of Politics, and Polity.

He has published over 200 scientific articles on topics including the ethics of clinical research, health care reform, international research ethics, end-of-life care issues, euthanasia, the ethics of managed care, and the physician-patient relationship. He is a regular op-ed contributor for The New York Times.
Emanuel served on President Bill Clinton's Health Care Task Force, the National Bioethics Advisory Commission, and on the bioethics panel of the Pan-American Healthcare Organization. He is a Fellow at the nonprofit bioethics research institute The Hastings Center and at the Center for American Progress.
Dr. Emanuel has received numerous awards including election to the Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Science, the Association of American Physicians, and the Royal College of Medicine.

Girl Rising
ALEXANDRIA DIONNE, producer
LECTURE 6:45 p.m. PARENTS DINING ROOM
The screening of the documentary film Girl Rising (2013) will be at 3:00 p.m. in Pickford Auditorium. The Athenaeum will host a dinner to discuss the film with Alex Dionne beginning at 6:00 p.m. in Parents Dining Room.
Around the world, millions of girls face barriers to education that boys do not: early forced marriage, domestic slavery, sex trafficking, gender violence and discrimination, lack of access to health care, and school fees. Breaking these barriers will be crucial in breaking cycles of poverty and political oppression.
Girl Rising is an innovative documentary film which journeys around the globe to witness the strength of the human spirit and the power of education to change the world. From Academy-Award nominated director Richard E. Robbins, Girl Rising spotlights the stories of unforgettable girls born into unforgiving circumstances. It captures their dreams, their voices, and their remarkable lives.
Each girl's story is transformed for the screen by an acclaimed writer from her native country: Marie Arana from Peru, Edwidge Danticat from Haiti, Mona Elthaway from Egypt, Aminatta Forna from Sierra Leone, Zarghuna Kargar from Afghanistan, Maaza Mengiste from Ethiopia, Sooni Traaporevala from India, Manjushree Thapa from Nepal, and Loung Ung from Cambodia. Cate Blanchett, Priyanaka Chopra, Selena Gomez, Anne Hathaway, Selma Hayak, Alicia Keys, Chloe Moretz, Liam Neeson, Meryl Streep, and Kerry Washington all contribute voice performances to the film, which features original music from Academy Award winner Rachel Portman, in collaboration with Hans Zimmer.
By sharing their personal journeys, the girls of Girl Rising become our teachers. As one of them says, "I feel as though I have power. . .I can do anything. And I have important things to do."
Alexandria Dionne is an award-winning documentary film producer. She has worked at various magazines and newspapers, including Rolling Stone, The Village Voice, and Entertainment Weekly. She shifted to documentary film and has worked on numerous PBS and cable programs. Some of her credits include: the six-hour PBS series, The Abraham and Mary Lincoln Story: A House Divided (2001); a four-hour series with Bill Moyers, America's First River: Bill Moyers on the Hudson (2002); and Destination America (2005), a four-hour PBS documentary that took an historical look at immigration in the U.S.
She also segment-produced radio pieces for KCRW's Good Food show. Since 2010, she's been working as a producer and production manager on The Documentary Group's 10x10 Presents: Girl Rising, a feature-length documentary and global campaign about girls' education in the developing world. While in Ethiopia for Girl Rising in June of 2011, Alex directed a shoot with a woman there named Melka, who had been the victim of early marriage. Alex is proud that Melka's story is being heard and has gone on to be featured content addressing the ill-effects of early marriage for many of 10×10's NGO partners, including for World Vision, the UN Foundation, and The Elders.
Reality Bites Back
Jennifer L. Pozner is media critic, lecturer and founder and executive director of Women In Media & News. She founded WIMN in 2001 to increase women's presence and power in the public debate through media analysis, education, advocacy and reform. Some of WIMN's programs include media trainings for women's and women-led social justice groups, advocacy for media justice and institutional change, and the POWER (Perspectives Of Women Expand Reporting) Sources Project, which connects journalists and media producers with a dynamic and diverse national network of women experts. Pozner created and manages WIMN's Voices, a media analysis group blog, through which dozens of leading women journalists, media critics and activists analyze media coverage of women in relation to a wide variety of cultural, political and international news beats.
Formerly, she directed the Women's Desk for the national media watch group FAIR (Fairness & Accuracy In Reporting), where she was a staff writer for Extra! magazine and the organizer of the national Feminist Coalition on Public Broadcasting and was Media Watch columnist and contributing media editor for Sojourner: The Women's Forum, a national women's newspaper.
A widely published freelance journalist, Pozner's work has appeared in outlets ranging from traditional publications such as Newsday and the Chicago Tribune, to independent magazines such as Ms. magazine, and new media like the HuffingtonPost. Her essays have appeared in anthologies such as What Do We Do Now (2010) (a post-2004 election manifesto); The W Effect: Bush's War on Women (2004); Catching a Wave: Reclaiming Feminism for the 21st Century (2003); Uncovering the Right on Campus (1994); and Points and CounterPoints: Controversial Family and Relationship Issues in the 21st Century (2002). She has also appeared as a commentator on CNN, Fox News, MSNBC, ABC News Now, Democracy Now!, National Public Radio, Comedy Central's "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart," and several documentary films.

In 2007, Soroptimist International of NYC honored her with their "Making A Difference for Women" Award. Still, her favorite award remains her 2006 inclusion "The Real Hot 100," a Girls In Government project honoring young women leaders making change in their communities. The "Certificate of Hotness" they gave her for media activism still makes her happy four years later — because it came with the tagline, "See how hot smart can be!" Forbes named Jennifer one of "20 Inspiring Women To Follow On Twitter" in 2010. Later that year, she was amused to find her non-profit activist self alongside Tyra Banks, Martha Stewart and Vera Wang on BizTech Day's list of "25 Influential Business Women in New York City You Should Follow on Twitter."
Her latest book Reality Bites Back: The Troubling Truth about Guilty Pleasure TV (2010), takes a fierce, funny, and in-depth look at how reality TV affects our beliefs, our behavior, and our culture by deconstructing reality TV's twisted fairytales, demonstrating that far from harmless "guilty pleasures," this genre has a damaging impact on our intellectual and political development.

The Diva's Director, Cindy Shea, describes their mission: "Music is a way of uniting our cultural backgrounds. Our foundation and roots are mariachi, but we have added extra elements to reflect our diversity."
Founded in 1999, the Divas have performed at venues across the country and have accompanied Grammy-winning artists including Marco Antonio Solis, Pablo Montero, Graciela Beltran, Natalia Jimenez, Paulina Rubio and the world-renowned Mariachi Vargas. They also performed for the inaugurations of LA mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, a campaign rally by former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, and at events for the Presidents of Mexico and South Korea. The Divas are proud to be known as the official mariachis of Disneyland.
The Divas first performed at the Athenaeum in honor of Cesar Chavez Day in 2004.
The Mariachi Divas have recorded six CDs, the latest being Viva la Diva (2010) and 10 Aniversario (2009) in honor of their first ten years together. In 2009, they won a Grammy Award for Best Regional Mexican Album for their Canciones de Amor CD (2008). That was also the first time that an all-female mariachi troupe has ever been nominated for and won a Grammy Award.

Hmm, That Doesn't Sound Like Economics: An Economist's Perspective on Sentencing Laws, Discrimination, and Willful Ignorance
"In this presentation I will describe different types of economic approaches I have taken to examine social issues that may fall outside of what most people tend to think of as economics. I hope this talk will provide some insights into what might be some unintended consequences of sentencing laws, why discrimination can arise and persist in a competitive labor market, and why people often seem to inform themselves about important issues from sources known to be more biased than others. I hope this talk will also highlight the distinct ways the discipline of economics approaches problems."
-David Bjerk
David Bjerk is currently an Associate Professor of Economics in the Robert Day School of Economics and Finance at Claremont McKenna College, as well as a Research Affiliate of the National Poverty Center at the University of Michigan and a Research Fellow at the IZA (Institute for Study of Labor) in Bonn Germany.

The State of International Affairs and the Security Challenges Facing America
General Stan McChrystal is widely known for developing and implementing the counter-insurgency strategy in Afghanistan and for creating a comprehensive counter-terrorism organization that revolutionized the way military agencies interact and operate. A four-star general, McChrystal is the former commander of U.S. and international forces in Afghanistan and the former leader of Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC), which oversees the military's most sensitive forces.
McChrystal graduated from West Point in 1976 and was commissioned as an infantry officer. He trained at the Special Forces School in Fort Bragg, North Carolina, and spent much of his career commanding special operations and airborne infantry units. During the Persian Gulf War, McChrystal served in a Joint Special Operations Task Force, and he later commanded the 75th Ranger Regiment. He also completed year-long fellowships at Harvard's John F. Kennedy School of Government in 1997 and at the Council on Foreign Relations in 2000. He was promoted to brigadier general in 2001.
In 2002, McChrystal was appointed chief of staff of military operations in Afghanistan. From 2003–2008, he commanded JSOC and was responsible for leading the nation's deployed military counter-terrorism efforts around the globe. He assumed command of all U.S. and international forces in Afghanistan in June 2009.
McChrystal retired from the military in 2010. He now serves on the board of directors for JetBlue Airways, Navistar, and the Yellow Ribbon Fund. He is also the chairman of the board for Siemens Government Technologies. In 2011, McChrystal returned to public service after the Obama administration invited him to oversee Joining Forces, a high-profile initiative that supports military families. He is also a senior fellow at Yale University's Jackson Institute for Global Affairs. McChrystal co-founded the McChrystal Group in January 2011.

Hagerstown and Washington County, Our Histor6/16/2013Hagerstown and Washington County, Our History
History is very much alive in Washington County, where we celebrate the past, thrive in the present and plan for a bright future!
One month after the signing of the Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1776, Maryland held its First State Convention at the State House in Annapolis.
On September 6, 1776, the State Convention passed a resolution that made the land west of South Mountain a new county named Washington County, for the Commander-In-Chief of the American Army. At that time, Washington County included all the land that is now Washington, Allegany and Garrett Counties.
As colonists continued moving to America, Maryland grew. The road from Baltimore to Frederick was heavily traveled and soon it extended over South Mountain at Turner's Gap, and down into Boonsboro. This stretch of highway was later known as the National Road.
The National Road, extending from Baltimore to Cumberland in Maryland, was the busiest road in America for years. It brought a great deal of business to Washington County, as travelers stopped along their journey.
In early nineteenth century America, trade became vital between people on the East Coast and the western farmlands. Goods were being carried from the Chesapeake Bay to the people across the Appalachian Mountains into the Ohio Valley. The idea for the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal grew out of this popular route. The canal was started in 1828 at Georgetown and was finished 25 years later, extending 83 miles through Washington County and continuing further west to Cumberland.
The railroad actually reached Cumberland before the canal. The Western Maryland Railroad was built from Baltimore to Cumberland, following the Potomac River on the Maryland side. The B & O Railroad built a branch rail line to Hagerstown. Other railroads came into Hagerstown from the north and south the Penn Central and the Norfolk and Western.
In 1861 the Civil War broke out, dividing North and South. Maryland remained a border state during the conflict, with citizens in support of both sides. Troops occupied Washington County for four of the five years of the war. The bloodiest single day in American history took place in Sharpsburg on September 17, 1862.
Washington County sent men and women off to war during World War I. The final year of the war, 1918, the United States government opened the Clearspring Proving Ground in Washington County. Soldiers at the camp tested weapons before they were sent overseas to be used by soldiers in battle. It was one of only eleven United States proving grounds that operated during World War I. The camp was abandoned in November 1918.
From 1933 to 1939, a trail was cut on the crests of several of the Appalachian Mountains. Today, the Appalachian Trail passes through 14 states, from the state of Maine to the state of Georgia. Thirty-seven miles of the Appalachian Trail passes through Washington and Frederick County, Maryland.
In 1938 the National Park Service (NPS) acquired the C & O Canal property. The towpath, which follows the Potomac River, was made into a 184-mile recreational trail.
Various camping sites have been provided along the trail and ramps have been placed to allow boaters access to the river.
Washington County played a vital role in World War II because of the Fairchild-Hiller Corporation airplane factory in Hagerstown. Fairchild-Hiller made three models of fighter planes used to train pilots for combat, and a small passenger plane used to carry Army staffers.
Camp Ritchie, a Maryland National Guard base in the northeastern corner of the county, was also used during World War II. It was taken over by the United States War Department and was expanded for use as a military intelligence training center.
Washington County continues to make its mark in history today. The county was recently listed as one of Money Magazine's Top Ten Best Places To Live.

Mojo Developer Cookbook
This page contains code snippets demonstrating commonly used tasks when writing Maven plug-ins. There are no guarantees that these are the 'right' way to do things, but they have worked at least once for the author(s).
Commonly used components
These components are commonly used, also in the following snippets.
The maven project, or the effective pom.
With the MavenProject object, you would be able to access a lot of things ( that is if you don't know the @component or @expression for it.
Creating a maven project
The dependencies declared in your plugin.
For accessing artifacts and repositories
For resolving artifact verions
Deploying and installing
You may want to add @required and @readonly, but I dropped them to keep it short.
The ones listed here are the common ones. But you can use other properties in default-value="${...}". See MavenPropertiesGuide for more info...
Dependencies for Components
When developing with the above mentioned commonly used components you will
want to add the following dependencies to your pom.xml:
Storing Properties
If you want to store properties in your mojo and make those properties accessible to other elements ( such as plugins, resource files, etc ). You can do something like this
This is like adding to your pom
Creating and resolving an artifact
To create an artifact, use an ArtifactFactory.
An artifact doesn't help you much until it's resolved (using an ArtifactResolver). This resolving process is not transitive!
Now you get the artifact file (in the local repository):
Resolving an artifact from a version range
First you need to create the version range:
Then you need to create the artifact from the version range:
Once you have the artifact with version range you use the ArtifactMetadataSource to retrieve the versions:
Then you can parse the list of versions and find the version that you are after (for example using versionRange.matchVersion) and then create a new artifact using tha version.
Resolving transitively
You need a MavenProject. If you don't have (the right) one, you can create it with just a groupId:artifactId:version:
Now you can use the ArtifactResolver to resolve transitively.
The filter is optional, and limits the resolving. Possible filters are:
- ScopeArtifactFilter
- InclusionArtifactFilter
- ExclusionArtifactFilter
- TypeArtifactFilter
- AndArtifactFilter (to combine them)
- or create your own, by implementing ArtifactFilter
Running external commands
Use CommandLine and CommandLineUtils from org.codehaus.plexus.util.cli
The input parameter is optional. For the output and error StreamConsumers, you can use CommandLineUtils.StringStreamConsumer which captures the output
in a String.
Installing and deploying artifacts
If you need want to install or deploy an artifact as part of a project build, you can add them to the MavenProject and they will be picked up in the install or deploy phase.
If you install/deploy in a standalone goal, or you need to install/deploy an artifact that is not part of the project being built, you can use the ArtifactInstaller or ArtifactDeployer.
Creating an ArtifactRepository
Usually an artifact repository will be injected into your mojo. Should you need to create one yourself, you will need an ID, a URL and a layout.
Accessing the Plexus container
If you want access to the container, for doing your own component lookups, implement the org.codehaus.plexus.personality.plexus.lifecycle.phase.Contextualizable interface
So if you want to lookup a component, you can do something like this
Getting dependency artifact path
In some cases you may need to get the path of a jar artifact from a Dependency. This is how you can do it:
In this snippet, project is the MavenProject instance of the project (@parameter default-value="${project}") and dependency is instance of Dependency (@parameter default-value="${project.dependencies}).

CHARLOTTE — Bobcats coach Steve Clifford knows center Bismack Biyombo's offensive game is still a long way from a finished product.
And he's OK with that.
Clifford said Monday he wants Biyombo's focus next season on becoming a dominant rebounder and "anchor of our defense."
Biyombo, the No. 7 overall pick in the 2011 NBA draft, has demonstrated in two seasons he doesn't have a great jump shot, needs help on his low post moves and his free throw shooting can be a liability.
But Clifford believes all of that will improve in due time.
"I love his attention to detail," Clifford said Biyombo, who won't turn 21 until August. "I love his effort on the practice floor and I love his coachability. And that's a good place to start. Step-by-step, we're still learning. But I know the game is important to him, he's hard working and he's bright. So when you have (those qualities) you have a chance to get better."
Biyombo is buying into Clifford's program.
He wants to become a better defender and shot blocker.
He's been pretty much attached to the hip of new Bobcats associate head coach and Hall of Famer Patrick Ewing this week at summer league practice, seeking out any tips he can harvest.
The 6-foot-10 Biyombo started 65 games last season for the Bobcats and averaged 7.3 rebounds but only 4.8 points per game.
Yet Clifford isn't worried about the scoring part.
"Right now I want him to concentrate on being a great rebounder and get his rebounding numbers up and anchor our defense," Clifford said. "Be great with his talk and help us get organized."
If Biyombo is to improve, he'll likely have to do it off the bench.
The Bobcats agreed last week to a three-year, $40.5 million contract with free agent center Al Jefferson from the Utah Jazz, said a person familiar with the situation. The person spoke to The Associated Press last Thursday on condition of anonymity because the move cannot be made official until July 10 in accordance with NBA rules.
The Bobcats also drafted 7-foot power forward/center Cody Zeller from Indiana with the No. 4 overall pick.
Their arrivals will give the Bobcats a pair of low-post scoring threats, which is in some ways could be good news for Biyombo, who can simply focus on rebounding, blocking shots and using his athletic ability to run the floor.
Jefferson, who has averaged 18.8 points per game over the past seven seasons, has proven capable of handling the role of scorer.
"It's going to be a good competition for everybody," Biyombo said. "We're going to have a lot of tough guys down low, so we'll be able to play a better game. Obviously Jefferson is coming in and will be a great player for us."
All of big men on the roster are better offensive players than Biyombo, and he knows that.
That's why he was so excited when Ewing joined Clifford's staff.
"Someone like him has a lot of experience," Biyombo said of Ewing. "Obviously he knows the game. So it's great for me."
Ewing has not only been working on Biyombo's defense, but his low post moves and short-range jumper, too.
Despite rarely attempting a shot behind 12 feet, Biyombo shot just 45 percent from the field and 52 percent from the foul line last season.
"We're trying to make sure I have my go-to move that I can beat anybody with, and then we can build from there," Biyombo said. "Obviously I need to work on my jump shot and my free throws. But I think I'm going to get better and the team will get better, too."

Flu is a term used to refer to a number of different versions of the influenza virus. Despite the variation in name (be it swine flu, bird flu, etc.), flu symptoms tend to be all the same: fever, chills, coughing, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, headaches and fatigue.
Flu season normally starts in late fall and lasts until early spring. The best ways to prevent catching the flu are basic ways to stop the spread of germs: cover your mouth and nose when you sneeze with a tissue, wash your hands often with soap and warm water or an alcohol-based hand rub and avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth.
Read more about 'flu'
Seasonal flu vaccines are also available. These vaccines will protect against the three most common strains of the virus for that season, and are strongly encouraged for healthcare workers, young children, the elderly, pregnant women and people with chronic health problems.
If you do contract the flu, follow your doctor's orders. Staying home and away from others is recommended for at least a day after the fever breaks. A doctor can prescribe antiviral medication to treat the illness. The sooner you receive the medication, the sooner you will start to feel better.
If you are caring for someone with the flu, avoid face-to-face contact or use a facemask to protect yourself, clean your hands after touching a sick person or handling their used tissues or laundry and speak to your doctor are getting a vaccine or preventive antiviral medication.
For more information, visit the CDC's Web page about the flu and Flu.gov.
