This article is filled with good geography (and more specifically AP Human Geography) vocabulary. Redlining, blockbusting, and racial covenants are all discussed as spatial process that have shaped socioeconomic and racial characteristics in American cities.

The alley is a reminder of past visions of how to best lay out a city. In the 19th century, back when Chicago started booming, the city was laid out in a grid and it quickly became a filthy, stinky, disease-ridden place. "Rear service lanes were essential for collecting trash, delivering coal, and stowing human waste — basically, keeping anything unpleasant away from living quarters." As we have moved towards curvilinear residential streets and more discrete public utilities, the newer neighborhoods abandoned the alley, but they are still very prominent in old neighborhoods (click here for an interactive map to explore all of Chicago's alleys).
Also, Chicago's suburbs have lofty names (Mount, Heights, Ridge, etc.) that don't match this flat topography--read here to find out why.

Suburbanization in the United States has been a phenomenon for the past 60 or so years, and continues on to this day with massive highway transport systems centered around cars. Its no surprise with cheap suburban land and relatively easy commutes that many of the fastest growing cities in the US are seeing their growth largely in suburban areas, where many more people can afford to live than the big city.
Sammie Bryant's curator insight, May 27, 2015 12:07 AM
This article accurately depicts the difference between a normal city 50 years ago and a city today, as well as the continuing spread of suburbanization. For example, Austin, the capital of texas, a hustling, bustling always busy area, is predominantly suburban. As cities and countries continue to advance and develop and its citizens become more successful and family oriented, suburban homes for families will become more needed than something smaller, like condos or studio apartments. As the needs of the cities change, the structure of the city changes as well. This applies to our final unit of APHUG: Cities and Urban Land Use.

Summary: This interesting video talks about principles that should be considered by city planners that could make our life's better and happier.
Insight: This video is relevant to unit 7 because it shows efforts that should be taken by urban planners and how a simple city layout can effect our lives.
Emerald Pina's curator insight, May 27, 2015 1:01 AM
This video gives you an overview of how to make the most attractive city in six ways. It explains the reasons and the wants of a city that potential residents are looking for.
This video relates to Unit 7: Cities and Urban Land Use because it talks about the orgin, site and situation a city should have for it to be considered attractive to people. A city should be chaotic/ordered, should have visible life, compact, is should have a nice/mysterious orientation, it should not be too big or too small, and it should be local and lively. Today, many cities lack attractiveness because of the intellectual confusion around beauty and the lack of political will. I totally agree with video and the requirement s to have an attrative city.
Shane C Cook's curator insight, May 27, 2015 4:17 AM
We definitely need more visually pleasing cities, our world is lacking and we are loosing it to like in the video "corporate opportunists".

Reflection of development. Sometimes commercialization in less developed or developing countries causes issues due to lack of finances when trying to industrialize the region. This poses problems such as the ones described in the article.

Unit 6: urban land use
This article is mainly about how bad some of the worlds urban areas are. The article shows and explains why they are bad and also why they were even designed in the way that they were. One example is Brasilia, which, was designed to have a population of 500,000, instead it has a population of about 3 million.
This article ties into unit 6 by showing some of the worst urban areas throughout the world. And also why they were even designed to be a CBD.

London has come a far way from the industrial town it was in the 19th century, and is now cleaner than ever. But pollution led to many issues in London at the time. This is also evident in the developing world today, such as in China, Africa, and South America.

Pas mal en première pour une étude détaillée du Londres de Dickens
Emily Bian's curator insight, May 23, 2015 11:41 AM
This article is about London, UK during the time of Industrial Revolution. The city of London expanded so rapidly, that there wasn't enough time for urban planning. Factories and houses were going up everywhere, and thousands of people migrated to London for jobs. This led to an influx of filth. The air was polluted and there wasn't adequate irrigation systems or waste systems. Everything dirty could be found on the streets like horse dung, and the water would get polluted and unsanitary.
I liked this article, because it really created an image in my head how terrible and filthy the Industrial Revolution was at the start.

7) Uneven development, zones of abandonment, disamenity, and gentrification
This article was written by a woman who noticed a lot of changes in Washington D.C. Gentrification led to these many changes, by becoming not as unique and urbanizing at other people's expense. She describes gentrification as remodeling very quickly and ferociously. A lot of the things she says are for the general good of the people, like installing street lights, but don't take into consideration the people who don't appreciate the changes. Stores like walmart are taking over the family owned stores, and more people are moving in.
This article describes gentrification perfectly, and I like her pictures to go along with it. I think this would help introduce this vocab term to new students.
Lydia Tsao's curator insight, March 24, 2015 12:29 AM
Sadly, gentrification happens all across the world. Poor populations in cities are disadvantaged and often have to move out due to wealthier populations moving in. One of the signs I found most disturbing was that police will start patrolling the areas where wealthier and poorer populations mix. This is a sad reality. Police do this to ensure that crime rates are low as poor people would be more tempted to commit crimes in wealthier neighborhoods. I do think this police patrolling has racist roots since the poorer population in Washington D.C. is mostly black. Words like "renewal" and "redevelopment" hide the sad reality behind gentrification/
Ricardo Cabeza de Vaca's curator insight, May 25, 2015 9:36 PM
I believe this article is very interesting because it shows how gentrification can change a neighborhood. I believe gentrification is a little bit of a negative thing because it adds geographical uniformity to our modern society and yes that could be good thing in measure. The article states now police patrol every street, Walmart's and 7-11's start showing up, areas will start becoming more aesthetically pleasing, but is that really a good thing? I believe that sometimes while you are driving by it is better to have a change in your surrounding, rather than seeing the same thing over and over again even if it is more modern.
Louis Mazza's curator insight, March 26, 2015 2:24 PM
In Beijing, China the government has plans to turn one of the oldest neighborhoods in Beijing, Gulou, to a tourist attracting. This is one of the only areas that the government did not knock down in the mass urbanization missions. Most of the residences here are poor and much of life is lived in public. Hopefully the tourist attraction will garnish money and jobs for the cities inhabitants. Large areas of the old broken down neighborhood will be turned into shops, hotels, and a museum. Inhabitants of the area to be knocked down will be moved to high rises on the outskirts of town. Some are mad and feel that the city should not be touched at all and that would be the correct way to preserve it as a historical sight.
Kendra King's curator insight, April 3, 2015 7:39 PM
Normally I am annoyed at projects that end up destroying history, but in this instance I think the area needs to be remodeled. Part of the reason I am not fazed by the history being lost is because a fair amount of the area was already so poorly kept that many of the structures were either ruble or dilapidated. At the rate the area was going, it was already going to lose its history anyways. While it would be nice of the government to keep a small portion of the good standing landscape, I think the museum being built in the area is a nod at maintaining there history. So since you can't have it all, I would rather side with the government trying to raise the standard of living for people who have been in continuous abject poverty since about the 13th century. As you said before, invest something in an area and you typically get something in return. Plus it seems that most of the people angered by this move are those outside of the area being remodeled (i.e. historians). I personally think those people are farther removed from the actual decision then those living there. So once again, I am happy to side with the people being most affected by the poverty stricken land.
Felix Ramos Jr.'s curator insight, May 6, 2015 10:27 AM
As a man who graduated with a Bachelor's degree in History, it goes without saying that this causes me sadness. But even taking the history component out of the picture, this reformation project is also destroying much of that area's culture and identity. They are risking the few details that remain of their culture's past in order to move the area onto a more global scale. Another negative is the fact that they are picking up the poverty-stricken residents of this community and shipping them to another part of town like they are pieces of livestock.

Mark Hathaway's curator insight, October 1, 2015 6:29 AM
I believe that absolutely no one is surprised that right before an international event, the hosting city is cracking down on its problem areas. I am skeptical of the Brazilin governments promise to develop the long neglected Favelas. After Rio finishes hosting the 2016 Summer games, the government will once again neglect the Favelas. There will no longer be an incentive for the government to care about the favelas. The eyes of the world will be off the city and things can return to normal. The only losers in this equation are the actual residents of these slums. Once again the promise of better days will ripped from them. An added injury is that there informal economy will have been destroyed. While life in an informal economy is hard by any measure, it is still a way of making a living. The increased police presence will destroy that way of life and replace it with empty promises.
Mark Hathaway's curator insight, September 15, 2015 8:54 AM
The United States is home to a number of different so called Mega Regions. We live in the Boston to Washington corridor which is commonly known as the megalopolis. The statistics from this region are just astounding to behold. 18 percent of the nations population lives in this corridor. That percent is roughly 56.5 million people. The total economic output of the region is an astounding 3.75 trillion. If it were a country, it would be the fourth largest economy in the world.

Seth Dixon's curator insight, August 18, 2015 11:37 AM
I've discussed Cincinnati's gentrification several times here, but this video adds the personal touch where you can see into the mind, ethos and motives of those moving in to poorer neighborhoods with hopes to renovate a community where the logic of 'disinvestment' has prevailed for decades. Gentrification is often criticized for displacing the urban poor, but this shows how some are eager to tie themselves into the fabric of the neighborhood as the neighborhood is changing; they aren't just wealthy people buying out the poor.

This clip talks about how people are "migrating" to more industrial based cities because the rent is so cheap.
Adam Deneault's curator insight, December 6, 2015 4:24 PM
I like this idea of gentrification, meaning you rebuild and renovate something that is old, dilapidated, and really not worth fixing up. Renovating places like this brings a whole new atmosphere to the area, it brings it to life, a life it once had that it lost. Renovating these areas is also probably good, because it raises the value of the area and higher value areas may just attract people to come see. Also, fixing up old restaurants, bars or other forms of entertainment might be enticing to people that are local and far away to check out what is new. Also, in general it will bring new economy to the area, renovating means construction jobs, finished construction jobs lead to new jobs because something can open in a newly renovated building and that new business will need employees.
Ryan Tibari's curator insight, May 27, 2015 10:16 AM
Industrialization changed not only the physical face of cities, but also the social. Innovations such as highways have caused transportation to become widely easier, allowing people from all different regions of the city to travel easily back and forth from place to place.

Unit 7: Cities and Urban Land Use
This article is about Sandtown, Baltimore and its shift into a disamenity sector. It explains how this neighborhood, mainly housed by blacks, had a high percentage of vacant houses. The article says that this neighborhood is overrun with poverty, war on drugs and gangs and has the more residents in jail than any other neighborhood. This shows the changing demographics of the city of Baltimore.
This relates to unit 7 because it covers the topic of disamenity sectors and changing demographics. It shows reasons for the high levels of poverty and abandoned housing. It also shows the racial spatial distribution of the neighborhood and its correlation to housing and development.
Lydia Tsao's curator insight, May 26, 2015 1:46 AM
This article left me heart broken. The African American community in Baltimore is stuck in a deep poverty cycle, and it cannot seem to escape its impoverished past. Even now, the poverty in the area seems to just be getting worse. The problems of income disparity lead to more problems than just economic; they lead to social and political problems. Social unrest and injustice occurs as a result of the modern white flight. This article arose as a result of the death of Freddie Gray, whose death demonstrates a significant social issue that needs to be addressed: police brutality and the criminal targeting of the African American community. His death stems from the tremendously amounts of disparity in the city. Promoting investment in the inner city would definitely help alleviate the poverty in the area. The problem is getting people to invest.
Mark Hathaway's curator insight, November 27, 2015 8:53 AM
If you build it, they may not come. Burma's government t must be both shocked and dismayed at the development of their grand new capital. They probably should not be that surprised at this development. All cites take time to grow. Outside of china, mega cities are not developed over the course of a night. Up until the Civil War, Washington D.C. was a swampy outpost in the middle of no were. Eventually their capital will develop, it may just take longer than the government of Burma had hoped for.
Benjamin Jackson's curator insight, December 14, 2015 12:02 PM
this just goes to prove that there needs to be an economic reason for people to move. if you build it, they will not come. they will stay where the money is, and ignore the 'honor' of living in the new capital city.
Nicholas A. Whitmore's curator insight, December 17, 2015 4:46 PM
I strange but not historically unprecedented situation. This kind of reminds me of all the cities China built in compensation for population growth. Historically the only way cities like this succeed is either by enticing immigration with tax cuts, free house etc or it has been forcefully with entire populations being moved (the latter being what the ancients largely did creating cities like Alexandria). Another example of capital moving is Iran however how they got a population in theirs I am not aware.Burma committed to neither and as a result the city is a failure. The cities layout also seems a bit extreme given it was made to suppress rather than entice. What is really bad however is the loss of agricultural land and ancestral villages in the area being destroyed all clearly for nothing. At the very least the country may be slowly moving away from dictatorship but only time will tell. Hopefully this failure will force further concessions making it a more tolerable place to live. Only then true solutions will likely be found to their poverty since the dictatorship has been seemingly incompetent in its actions.

Urban unit
This article goes in to depth on a newer model on cites called the donut model, as pictured similar to a donut. The donut model was created by Aaron Renn, and it shows urban development recently in cities. The center of the city is grownign economically and falling. There is an influx of people moving in , resulting in an increase of poverty too. Also more educated people are moving in like young newly educated individuals.
The new structure of cities forming is a change from the old. With cities now developing bigger and more industrial, there are many opportunities for people for work in the center of the cit. however, many people may want the jobs but can't get them, so many of those in poverty live in the city centers in search of economic opportunities. It is also interesting to see the status of the people changing the in the city center with that also more young educated people move to city centers, most likely in search of job opportunities. This new way of urban development is modernizing the work system.
Shane C Cook's curator insight, May 27, 2015 8:44 AM

Gentrification can be a very touchy subject. What appears to be economic revitalization of a down-trodden neighborhood to one, can appear to be systematic removal of minorities to another. This op-ed isn't a whole-hearted embrace of gentrification, but it might be seen as a critique of the gentrification critics.

The majority of megacities are in the developing world, with the exception of places like New York and Tokyo, best showing how the face of the world is changing. Developing countries are on their paths to becoming major powers, such as Calkutta for example. As an enlarging city, more and more citizens are flocking to the abundance of jobs in the city which thus increases India's development as a result of the growing city and thus leads to a cycle of growth as demand for more jobs increases as the city grows. Megacities are thus a symbol of the developing world and can be used in human geography as symbols of development.

England defied odds against Brazil, says Hodgson
Rio de Janeiro: England coach Roy Hodgson hailed his team`s performance in their 2-2 draw against Brazil here at the Maracana.
England rallied from 0-1 down to take the lead through second-half goals to Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Wayne Rooney, before Corinthians midfielder Paulinho equalised with a stunning late volley here Sunday night.
"It took a wonder strike from Paulinho to get Brazil back into it," Hodgson was quoted as saying by Xinhua.
"Sure, they will say they deserved that but I`m still satisfied with what we have done here.
"We felt we were well worthy of the draw. The clever money would have had us struggling to get any sort of result, not least because of being down to the bare bones. It`s not easy to come here at the end of the season and play two hard games but I`m pleased we could finish the season, at least in our eyes, on a good note."
Hodgson admitted Brazil had "clearly been better" in the first half but praised his side`s spirited revival following the introduction of Chamberlain as a 60th-minute substitute.
"In the second half we were every bit as good as them and we take lot of credit for that," Hodgson said. "Most teams, managers and coaches know that when you come to Brazil they will have more of the ball and create more chances. The question is if you can deal with it and come away with a result, and that`s what we have done."

About Stephen Bennett
Stephen Bennett is an American portrait painter who over the last 20 years has traveled to over 30 countries. He seeks out indigenous people to capture their soulful faces and ritual adornments through colorful paintings on a grand scale, many being 7x5 feet. Bennett's mission is preserve and celebrate the world's diversity through a unique style of realism using interpretive color-with paints that he has hand-mixed from pure pigments. The focus of his paintings is on the eyes that invite us to enter and experience our common humanity. For he truly believes we are all one people.
Stephen shares,'I am a portrait painter because of my passion for the world's people. My portraits convey a fusion of my feelings for each subject with an intuitive use of color. I intensify them in celebration of that person's existence. I hope my portraits reveal that every person of every race and culture is interconnected, indispensable and radiant with astonishing beauty.'
Bennett's life goal is to paint 1,000 portraits to be exhibited worldwide. Young, old, joyful, and withered faces populate these vibrant canvases, celebrating a variety of ethnic strains.
From an early age, Bennett had a strong fascination for the human face. He constantly sketched the faces of his family, friends and even strangers he encountered. With the encouragement of his high school art teacher, Philip Spaziani, Bennett fully realized that his career was evolving towards portraiture. During his college days in upper state New York, he focused on painting classes and studied color theory.
Stephen has keen sense of observation, and an ability to bring out the beauty of a face. He succeeds in his artistic endeavors thanks to his appreciation of human differences, his generosity, and his desire to understand others. He has a special ability to express and bring light to a face by his play with colors. For Stephen, a face is a treasure.
Bennett's vision is promote acceptance through art education and cultural exchange on a global scale. He is driven by a desire to complete an international exhibition of 1,000 World Portraits. This enormous project is ambitious, but needed at a time when the world is particularly conflicted. The focus of his paintings is on the eyes that invite us to enter and experience our common humanity... for he truly believes that we are all one people.
Bennett is founder of Faces of the World, a non-profit corporation with a mission of increasing cultural pride and affirming the importance of indigenous cultures who have been the true guardians of planet earth. Faces of the World is funded from the sale of his paintings, commissions, donations and sponsorship. For more information go towww.facesoftheworld.net

Recommendations of where to stay in Burgundy
Report Abuse
I stayed in a number of places while taking a long walk (5 or 6 days) along the Burgundy Canal with Beaune the last place in the region. I loved the walk and the villages and countryside places I stayed as I walked but Beaune was the best of all for me. Not too big, not too small but just right.

Thank you MmePerdu! That seems consistent with what I'm discovering. .

Beaune is small enough that when we stayed at the Best Western, I could drive around the ring road from the parking lot back to the hotel in about 15 minutes. The ring road is one-way. The Best Western is about a block outside the road and easy walking distance into the town center. But, don't try to park in their garage unless you have a very small car. The hotel itself is in a older building with lots of charm.

Beaune, We stayed at Chateau de Laborde. about a 5 min drive outside Beaune, Stay in the middle of a vineyard . 2 Apartments in the old stables. I have to admit, we Know the owners, but that is irrelevant. A great place to stay. I'd rcommend it even if we didn't know the owners. just look at website.

We absolutely love Beaune! Its walkable and has some fantastic restaurants. A great market on Sat as well.
Dont miss the marches aux vins for the wine tasting done in the cellars!

For something off the beaten path in a beautiful corner of Burgundy, check out Château Sainte Sabine, renovated and opened as a hotel in 2011, just across the valley from Châteauneuf ( www.saintesabine.com ). See my Burgundy trip report here (April 28, 2013 - down the page a bit): http://www.fodors.com/community/europe/recommended-cellars-along-burgundys-wine-route.cfm

Burgundy is a large region and Beaune is certainly a wonderful town but it's only a good base if you plan on seeing things near to Beaune, although it is in the most central part of the region. Depending on how long you'll have to explore Burgundy it might make sense to have two bases so you'll be centrally located to those places you want to visit within easy driving distance. I sort of divide Burgundy into three different areas (obviously this is arbitrary), the northwest section around Auxerre and Semur-en-Auxois, the central area near Dijon and Beaune and the southern portion not far from Tournus. This is an overly simplistic way of dividing up Burgundy and there are other bits not that close to these three areas that are worth exploring. You can have a look at this thread which has links to all the major tourist office websites for Burgundy if you want to do a little research:

I second Dijon as rec by grandmere. Best if you don't have a car.

Keiren Westwood hopes Sunderland can build on their derby victory over Newcastle United with another three points against Hull City.
Sunderland picked up their first win of the season against their fierce rivals last time out, and face a Hull side desperate to get back to winning ways after three matches without victory.
The win over Newcastle lifted Sunderland off the bottom of the Premier League table and, although confidence is high at the Stadium of Light, goalkeeper Westwood knows Hull will provide them with a stern test on Saturday.
"It's not going to be easy - every game in this league is tough," the Republic of Ireland international told the club's official website.
"But we'll go there in great spirits, look to get the ball down and play and take the game to Hull.
"They started really well, have had some decent result and got some points on the board.
"The league is so tight at the moment - Hull are in 10th and there's only three points between them and third-bottom.
"Hull are a good side. They've had some injuries but other players have come in and shown what they can do."
The 29-year-old has played every game in the Premier League this season but is yet to keep a clean sheet.
However, after another week working with new manager Gus Poyet, Westwood said the squad are hopeful of building on their maiden victory.
"We've been on a high this week and everyone is delighted," he added. "Hopefully this can kick-start our season.
"With the team and the talent we have, hopefully we can push on."
Sunderland have won their last six league meetings with Hull.

Report: Sarah Silverman Romancing British Actor Michael Sheen
Words are, comedienne Sarah Silverman is dating "Masters of Sex" star Michael Sheen. The duo were seen making out in West Hollywood on Thursday, February 6, prompting rumor that they have embarked on a new romance.
According to Us Weekly's source, Silverman and Sheen were hot and heavy at Soho House. "They were all over each other for a lot of the night," the eyewitness claimed.
Rumors started when Silverman attended the British actor's 45th birthday party in West Hollywood. Together with other celebrities including Sheen's ex-wife Kate Beckinsale and her current husband Len Wiseman, Silverman partied the night away at Craig's. "Sarah and Michael came and left together. She drove," an insider told Us. "When they left, Sarah opened her trunk so Michael could put all of his gifts in and then they drove away."
Silverman previously dated talk show host Jimmy Kimmel for five years and split from him in 2009. They remain friendly. Sheen is also in civil term with Beckinsale whom he married for eight years and has 14-year-old daughter Lily with. The former couple walked the red carpet of a Golden Globe after party together with Wiseman on January 12.

Better question, should I go ahead and board the Libra?
Cherrygrove is almost the same as the games, just add a dock, you can describe it if you want to, not only your post will be longer, it will also be more interesting :3
As a side note, I am almost done with my post and if anyone is still around near pallet town or route 1 and wants to battle/chat let me know. :]
This assumption is RIGHT, you may board the ship, ONLY if you already finished catching Pokemon 'n stuff, because once you board, you won't be able to post until the next chapter.
As a matter of fact, once aboard the ship, you may interact with anyone of ALL the Role-Players, be it a fight, a trade, or just some chi-chat.
But that's ONLY during the next chapter.

Northfield nixes trash switch
NORTHFIELD Residents voted 97-68 Tuesday to stick with their current trash handler and not return to Central Vermont Solid Waste Management District.
The town uses Mad River Resource Management Alliance for disposal of its trash, but with the recent closing of the Moretown Landfill, which the alliance used, Select Board members decided to ask residents to look at a possible switch.
Northfield left the Central Vermont Solid Waste Management Districtin 2010 for financial reasons after the district had announced it would be raising its per-capita fee for member towns to $3. Northfield had to pay just $2 per capita with the Mad River group.
Select Board member Brad Denny said Tuesday night the board considered the latest switch because the alliance said in the spring that it would have to raise its per-capita cost to $4 if the landfill in Moretown closed. Now, he said, the alliance is quoting an increase of only 75 cents per capita. Denny attributed the smaller cost increase to the towns contemplation of switching back to the central Vermont district.
According to Denny, the central Vermont district now charges only $1 per capita but has a per-bag fee.
Speaking personally, Denny said he was disappointed in the vote because the per-capita costs affect all taxpayers and he believes residents should have to pay only for the waste they themselves create. The per-bag fee, he said, would put more of the financial burden on the individual, something he was hoping would make people recycle and compost more.
As a Select Board member, Denny said hell carry out the wishes of the residents and did not expect the board to fight the decision.MORE IN This Just In

Middle East
Nato foreign ministers will agree to send Patriot missiles to beef up Turkey's air defences and calm Turkey's fears that it could come under missile attack, possibly with chemical weapons, from Syria, diplomats say.
Turkey last month asked Nato for Patriots, which can be used to intercept missiles and planes, after weeks of talks with allies about how to shore up security on its 900km border with Syria, which is immersed in civil war.
Foreign ministers from the 28-nation alliance are expected to give their backing to the move when they meet in Brussels for a twice-yearly meeting, sending a strong signal they stand behind their ally Turkey.
"There will be a decision and probably a statement from the ministers themselves," a Nato diplomat told reporters.
The move follows media reports, citing European and US officials, that Syria's chemical weapons had been moved and could be prepared for use in response to dramatic gains by rebels fighting to topple President Bashar al-Assad.
Syria said on Monday it would not use chemical weapons against its own people after the United States warned it could take action against any such escalation.
"Turkey's request, when it came to Patriots, was to augment its air defences with the capacity to deal with the threat of ballistic missiles and particularly the threat of ballistic missiles potentially armed with chemical warheads," another Nato diplomat, speaking on condition of anonymity, said.
The diplomat said the ministers would simply agree on Tuesday to "augment Turkey's air defences".
"The decision on whether or not to deploy Patriots, and for how long is, like all Nato decisions when it comes to the deployment of military forces, a national one," he said.
The United States, Germany and the Netherlands are the countries expected to supply Turkey with Patriots. Germany and the Netherlands may need parliamentary approval to send the missiles and deployment could take weeks.
The first diplomat said that Nato's Supreme Allied Commander Europe, US Admiral James Stavridis, had the power to deploy Nato's own fleet of Awacs surveillance planes if he judged it necessary to counter a specific threat and would not need ministerial approval.
However, there is no immediate plan for him to do so in the case of Turkey.
The Nato foreign ministers will take the Patriot decision immediately after they hold talks in Brussels with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, who is expected to repeat Moscow's opposition to the move.
Russia, which has a fractious relationship with the military alliance, has been at odds with Nato over how to end the Syrian conflict and has vetoed UN resolutions aimed at pressuring Assad to step down.
Turkey repeatedly has scrambled jets along the countries' joint border and responded in kind when shells from the conflict came down inside its borders, underlining fears Syria's civil war could spread to destabilise the region.
A senior State Department official accompanying US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to Europe for the Nato talks, said he did not expect final details this week on the number of missiles that would be deployed, where or for how long, as site surveys were still going on.
He said the deployment would not be part of "an inexorable move towards a no-fly zone" over Syria, of the sort Nato mounted to defend anti-government rebels in Libya who toppled Muammar Gaddafi last year.
In Prague, Clinton reiterated a warning against any attempt by the Syrian government to use its chemical weapons stockpile against the rebels, calling this a "red line" that would prompt US action.
"I am not going to telegraph any specifics what we would do in the event of credible evidence that the Assad regime has resorted to using chemical weapons against their own people, but suffice to say, we are certainly planning to take action if that eventuality were to occur," she said.
The second day of the Nato meeting on Wednesday will focus on progress in the alliance's efforts to gradually hand over security control to Afghan forces as it prepares to wind down its combat operations by the end of 2014.
US officials say Clinton will seek to encourage what Washington sees as an improving mood between Pakistan and its neighbour Afghanistan.

Chris Trotter
David Grant is one of those dogged miners of the past whose unceasing efforts are occasionally rewarded with a historical gem.
OPINION: Last Saturday, at a Fabian Society seminar entitled The Kirk Legacy, he shared one of them with the world.
Asked to present a paper on the early life of the Labour Party leader and prime minister, Norman Kirk (whose government was elected 40 years ago this month), Mr Grant read aloud a short passage Kirk had written for an unfinished autobiography.
The 150-strong Auckland audience was astonished. Not simply because Kirk's stark prose bears comparison with Hemingway and Steinbeck, but also for the glimpse his words offered into the mind of a working-class New Zealander recalling life in the Christchurch suburb of Linwood during the lean years of the 1930s.
In Kirk's description of the short street where he lived, one hears not just compassion but also a barely suppressed anger at its inhabitants' truncated lives. Obvious, too, is Kirk's desperation to escape the limiting effects of its material and spiritual poverty.
For Kirk was a highly intelligent man with a rare hunger for knowledge of every kind. In later life he would refer to his favourite books as "my patient friends".
That drab Linwood street, which had swallowed the lives of so many of his neighbours, would not claim him. But, equally, Linwood would never relinquish its hold over his imagination. It's no exaggeration to say his life was dedicated to breaking Labour's people out of such working-class prisons.
Perhaps this is what working-class New Zealanders sensed and loved about the man. That here before them was an emancipator; someone who had seen the size and richness of the world from which they were excluded. A political leader determined to win them entry.
So many of the contemporary Left romanticise poverty, imbuing it with mysterious moral power. Kirk despised such nonsense.
In the brief passage Mr Grant read out (sorry, but you'll have to wait for his book), this son of the Great Depression makes it very clear that there is nothing noble or pure about the experience of poverty - quite the opposite, in fact. Poverty deadens.
It lowers horizons and empties its victims' lives of hope. Poverty is the thief of dreams; the robber of dignity; an affront to the conscience.
For Kirk, to be poor was to be trapped and shackled: forced to live on a dead-end street.
Another contributor to the Kirk Legacy seminar was the political journalist, Colin James. Describing Kirk as "a political pivot between two eras", he painted him as the harbinger of the big changes that would follow the election of the fourth Labour government in 1984.
It is certainly possible to see in Kirk's dispatch of the frigate HMNZS Otago to observe the French atmospheric nuclear tests at Mururoa, and in his cancellation of the 1973 Springbok tour, clear anticipation of the defining moments of the 1980s.
But it is wrong, I believe, to mould his features into some sort of crude Janus mask: one half smiling benignly on what Mr James calls "the apogee of social democracy" in the early 1970s; the other staring with prophetic intensity towards the brave new world of open minds - and markets - just beyond the decade's horizon.
As Margaret Hayward, Kirk's private secretary (and another contributor to the day-long seminar) revealed in her invaluable book Diary of the Kirk Years, "Mr K" feared laissez-faire capitalism more than any other ideology.
In his last speech to the Labour Party conference, writes Hayward, he warned delegates against too much social liberalism.
The permissive society, he said, was "just another way of saying: 'I can do what I like'."
That would include not just the right to use marijuana but the right to exploit, to speculate, to put monetary gain above social duty.
Some customs and laws might well have become irrelevant through the passage of time, but the permissive society, carried to its logical end, meant there was no law.
"And if there is no law, the freedom of the permissive society is a trap and a prison for the weak in society."
Those Linwood memories never left him.
The great irony of the past 40 years, of course, is that as our personal lives have become increasingly unconfined, our political options have narrowed dramatically.
Attendees at Saturday's seminar rose as one to welcome Sir Owen Woodhouse - principal architect of New Zealand's world-beating system of accident compensation. But what chance would such a socially progressive scheme have in 2012? Who, today, would dare promote Kirk's "Ohu" - communes on Crown land!
Norman Kirk was a pivot, yes, but the turn that followed his tragic death in 1974 was from expansiveness towards constriction; from equality towards inequality; from the light towards the darkness. Down a dead-end street.
