Copper Beech Farm was touted as the most expensive listing in the country when it hit the market this spring. But here we are at the beginning of fall, and the asking price is now $50 million lower, with a new price of $140 million.
The French Victorian mansion was built in 1898, and sits on a 50-acre plot with sweeping views of Cos Cob Harbor and boasts two private islands. In addition to 12 bedrooms, a wine cellar and a grass tennis court, the estate also contains a carriage house complete with a clock tower, a greenhouse and a couple of pools.
Then there's the debt.
Property records show that the house is carrying at least $124 million in mortgage debt.
"For all intents and purposes, it's America's largest short sale," Frank Farricker, a residential and commercial real estate broker based in Greenwich told us this summer.
Even with the considerable price cut, the real estate website Curbed reports that Copper Beech is still the priciest mansion for sale in the States, while noting it has lost is title of priciest private property. Here's how Curbed puts it:
Even at it's new, uh, bargain-basement ask, Copper Beech Farm is still the most expensive private mansion on the market in the United States, but it's been stripped of its title as most expensive private property: that honor has been reallocated to Jackson Land and Cattle, a 1,750-acre estate in Jackson Hole, Wyo., that's asking $100K an acre, or $175M. (There several homes on that ranch, and most people would consider it a working farm with investment potential instead of, say, a single-family home.) As far as mansions go, next in line is a Dallas spread listed for $135M by business honcho Tom Hicks. If Copper Beach Farm sells at ask, it will top America's biggest-ever sale, a Silicon Valley spread that sold in January $117.5M, by $22.5M.
But that's if the estate sells at its current asking price. And while the town has its fair share of expensive listings and choice properties, Greenwich has never had a sale top the $100 million mark — despite at least one attempt.
Five years ago, the 40-acre property on Round Hill Road, named "Dunnellen Hall," which was once owned by hotel and real estate tycoons Harry and Leona Helmsley was listed for $125 million. It took two years before the estate, which included an opulent, 28-room mansion, sold for less than one-third of its asking price: $35 million.
Whether Copper Beech can become the first Greenwich property to command $100 million or more remains to be seen.

"The program's came out great! I had a hard time with the spacing but the design team helped me out and we were so happy with the final product!"
"Initially thought we'd design our own program. Elected to go with this beautiful and simple design. Many compliments as it added a stylish and superior quality look & feel to what we had hoped to do. Lightning fast turn-around. Love that we can design with template to organize detail and see it on the screen. Thanks WPD!"
"We loved how this came out! The programs look great and now match our invitations. We had a lot of issues fitting in all the text for the program, but were able to get everything in and looking nice thanks to their design team. I do wish this had had an option like trifold or the ability to write on the back, but they are still gorgeous none-the-less. We added the pearly shimmer to them, which makes them look much better. Another great buy from Wedding paper divas!"
"Just love how easy it was to create our wedding programs and loved how quickly the designer got back with revisions and knew exactly how I needed it to look. Just couldn't be happier."
"I love the look and the quality of these programs. The best part was the customer service with personalizing and formatting. I needed custom work adjusting my layout and wording and WPD did a great job. They were quick to get back to me and sent proof after proof while I made changes and adjustments. Some proofs were sent back only minutes after I submitted changes."

What throws me off is how it is set up, for example, looking at Driver on the left then Seeing Pedestrian in the middle. It says Intoxicated, I am not exactly sure which one to really count and which one to count as intoxicated and which one not. Sorry if that sounds confusing.
Sorry if that sounded confusing.
The question asks for the cases where either the pedestrian was intoxicated (but not the driver) or the driver was intoxicated (but not the pedestrian) or when they were both intoxicated. Of course, the question didn't use all of those words. It just stated OR which means that it is the union of these two events (ie: those 3 cases I wrote out).
The 226 entry represents the number of pedestrians that were killed while the driver was not intoxicated but the pedestrian was intoxicated - so this entry is part of the union. Similar with the entry 97 entry except it is the driver that was intoxicated and the pedestrian was not.

Residents of The Colonies in southwest Amarillo on Tuesday appeared to have lost their campaign to block an apartment development on a vacant 12-acre Coulter Street tract.
The Amarillo City Commission voted 4-1 to impose a long list of additional development standards for the property, but the panel rejected Commissioner Ellen Robertson Green's proposal to cut apartments from the list of accepted businesses that could locate there.
Two votes are required before an ordinance becomes law. A second vote should take place next week.
Residents of The Colonies said other apartments already in the area have created problems and depressed property values.
"We have no problem with a Costco or restaurants," Stefanie O'Brien said. "But apartments, that's a different story. An apartment complex brings a whole new set of issues. We have run people out of our garage from the (other) apartment complex."
The 12 acres in question lie off Coulter Street, immediately north of Continental Parkway, and behind smaller sites such as Chili's Grill & Bar and a future Blue Sky Restaurant.
The tract is further landlocked by the Lowe's Home Improvement Warehouse to the north and homes along Continental Parkway to the south and Cape Colony Drive to the west.
The current owners — a group of investors that includes former Amarillo City Commissioner Ron Boyd and endodontist Kirk Coury — purchased the property four or five years ago, according to Coldwell Banker Amarillo Commercial Real Estate Broker Bob Garrett.
Garrett argued on behalf of the owners in appealing the Amarillo Planning and Zoning Commission's Oct. 10 denial of amendments that would've allowed most general retail uses to be developed there.
The group hit a similar roadblock in April, when it sought an amendment specifically for apartment development. The Planning and Zoning Commission approved that measure, but city commissioners ultimately rejected it, facing a huge outcry from homeowners in The Colonies, as well as the neighborhood's developer, Matt Griffith.
When the tract first was zoned in 1995, it was the anticipated second phase of a development that included Lowe's. But the "retail" moniker given to yet-to-be-determined plans for the property did not refer specifically to the city's general retail zoning, said City Attorney Marcus Norris.
The word "retail" refers just to "cash register" establishments, Norris said.
But under city statutes, the phrase "general retail" refers to a specific set of potential uses for land that can range from a morgue to multi family housing.
The City Commission's decision Tuesday firmly places general retail zoning on the property but does so under a planned development framework that allows the city to set restrictions, including the type of building materials to be used, lighting, the size and placement of signs, fencing and parking. In addition, the commission adopted development standards negotiated between city staff and the property owners that exclude several general retail uses: tattoo parlors, palm readers, halfway houses, morgues, mortuaries, ambulance services, pawn shops and tool rental stores.
Under the measure, buildings farther than 100 feet from the property line will be limited to three stories. Within 100 feet of the property line, buildings will be limited to two stories, and any structures taller than two stories will be oriented so that they prevent people from seeing into neighboring residential homes.
Buildings also must be constructed so that only solid walls — no windows — are adjacent to homes south and west of the property, City Manager Jarrett Atkinson said.

add click tracking for photos uploaded through hootsuite. the ow.ly link should provide click stats.
A link is a link so I'm not entirely sure why an image link isn't calculated in the stats? Hootsuite should be our all in one stop for all information on our social media stats.
When I upload images through Hootsuite from my phone, I can not see how many people viewed the image online! This is essential for business use!
ow.ly analytics for pics you take with your phone (and then post automatically to your twitter acct.
when I upload an image to ow.ly it doesn't considered to statistics
We're always looking for ways to improve analytics, especially for images. We'll look at implementing this in the future.

If you use a link to an image, you kill about 1000% of the effectiveness of posting--when you have high content value images..... like https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-frc3/292286_510538399002945_575595111_n.jpg or https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/555849_515621238494661_897517080_n.jpg Either one could be viral if posted as an image ( to divers), either posted as a link could be completely ignored... I say this is insanely important --almost to the point of invalidating the use of Hootsuite for a Content Creator that is highly visual....And this is crazy, because Hootsuite is SO POWERFUL. You guys need to figure this out :-) !!!!
Paul Kampe commented
Just for vanity, it would nice if users could also see how many clicks a photo has gotten when they click it.
Mike Curtis commented
When are you hoping to fix this? I've just submitted a couple of photos from an event, and not having click-through stats is really undermining. Please fix this.

How do I determine the percent of protein in a food?
Asked by cravewave on Oct 20, 2010
in Nutrition
In all foods and meals, the calories come from the energy-producing nutrients, protein, carbohydrate, fat, and alcohol, present in the food. To determine the percent of calories from each of the energy nutrients, you must know the total calories and grams of the nutrients in a given amount of food. To find the percent from protein, know that every gram of protein contributes 4 calories. To calculate the percent, use this equation: (Given calories/ Total calories) x 100. For instance, if a food contains 200 calories and 8 grams of protein, then (32 calories / 200 calories) X 100 = 16% and so protein contributes 16 percent of that food's total calories. On Calorie Count, this information is depicted visually as a pie chart and a bar graph, and numerically in the Nutrition Report.

This week's Tuesday's Travel Tips takes us to one of our newer BlueCities, Hartford. Our Airport Operations Crewmember Maria put together some of her favorite facts about her city and some great tips on what to do around town.
Hartford, Connecticut's state capital, is perched at the end of the Connecticut River and is accessible from interstate highways 84 and 91. The city has wonderful historic buildings including the Old State House. It was here that the Amistad Trials took place in 1839 as well as the first witch hanging in America (55 years before Salem!). The Center Church (with stained glass windows by Louis Tiffany) and the Wadsworth Athenaeum, America's oldest public art museum are also located in the city. The Wadsworth Athenaeum is a castle-like structure that has a refurbished sculpture garden and contains more than 45,000 works of art.
A must-see both for its charm and for the man who commissioned it, is the home of Mark
Twain-turned museum. It was here that Twain wrote some of his classics. Throughout the year, The Mark Twain House and Museum presents special events and educational programs that illuminate Twain's literary legacy for all ages.
The Connecticut Science Center is also located in Hartford. It is Connecticut's top science museum and offers a high-impact learning experience in the green, clean, bright and stimulating environment. Adults and children alike will find entertainment and educational value with hands-on, engaging and exciting exhibits and programs.
And speaking of entertainment, the Bushnell Theatre in Hartford is Connecticut's premier presenter of the performing arts. It has delighted and inspired audiences for more than 70 years and plays a leading role in the state's cultural life. The Bushnell, which is a fabulous place to see an event, presents major Broadway tours, symphony orchestras, family presentations and a children's theater.
Hartford has many fine restaurants including Black-eyed Sally's BBQ and Blues (a
"transplanted" Louisiana roadhouse), Bin 228 (offering Italian cuisine in a casual bistro dining atmosphere with an extensive wine selection), Morton's Steakhouse, The Half Door (superior pub food and great beer selection), Scotts' Jamaican Bakery (authentic Jamaican cuisine) and Tisane Tea and Coffee (bistro and brasserie), to name a few.
All in all, Hartford has a lot to offer. There are plenty of places to grab a bite, find fun attractions, breweries/bars, theatre, art and museums.
In addition to sharing your Hartford travel tips below, you can also tweet them using the hashtag #TTBDL. And don't forget to give and get some great travel tips from other travelers at our TrueBlue Community!

This print started out as a baseball card more than twenty years ago. Every aspect of it is designed to preserve the original look and feel of the card, from the printing pattern to the slightly worn edges. In fact, this print started by finding the actual card in our vault and then painstakingly re-mastering it with a team of designers. The authenticity extends to manufacturing; each print is made on high-quality, cotton fine art paper that measures 1/64 inches in thickness. Framed prints feature 2-inch flat wood or metallic frames with high-end, glare-resistant glass. And all prints are officially licensed by MLB and the National Baseball Hall of Fame.
STORYSo what was Nolan Ryan's secret to all those wins, strikeouts and no-hitters? Pretty simple, actually: "It helps if the hitter thinks you're a little crazy," Ryan once said.

Here's a partnership with great potential: Toledo Farmers' Market and Lucas County Jobs and Family Services.
The farmers' market, which dates to 1832 and is four years older than the city itself, is best known for its downtown operations next to Erie Street Market, where vendors hawk their products most Saturday mornings. The market also sells food on summer Wednesday afternoons in the Westgate area of West Toledo.
Last week, in the first of three test runs, market vendors sold locally grown food at the family-services agency headquarters at 3210 Monroe St. The pilot program could bridge an accessibility gap, especially for Toledoans with limited means of transportation.
More people who struggle to make ends meet now have a chance to reap the health benefits of fresh, locally grown fruits and vegetables in their diets. And area farmers may have found a new outlet to help boost their sales.
As at Erie Street, the county agency site takes cash, credit, and food stamps. Test runs are planned on Aug. 8 and Sept. 12. A long-term arrangement would benefit Toledoans in need, as well as farmers.
