Wed, 02 Jan 2008 00:18:33 -0500

Gardner Campbell always a source of great blog material has produced a lovely of Hopkins’ “The Windhover.” His reading of the poem actually brought tears to my eyes because more than any I’ve heard he managed to convey Hopkins’ … rapture for want of a better word. PS: my comments on his blog always for some reason be to get caught in a e-mail filter. I’m hoping that the “trackback” ordain work and he’ll take this post as an admiring comment!

I would more likely intensively engage with some important book totally full of new ideas. Hayek. Parfit. Plato. And so on. There just aren't books like that left for me anymore. So I construe many more to learn bits but haven't in years experienced a "view quake." That is sad to me at least but I don't know how to avoid how that has turned out.

I think my first quake schedule was "Mister God this is Anna". I read that when I was about 13 or 14 and it helped me see a lot of things differently. Sadly enough apart from that I don't evaluate I've read any quake books yet.. or nothing that quaked me up. I get tiny tid-bits out of books I read like a characters says something and it feels desire "oh yeah.. I should bequeath that and I evaluate like that in my everyday life" but usually those things move away again a few days after having read them. It's sad really. I really liked Atlas Shrugged when I first read it and I open it damn near unreadable the measure time I tried.. to try and catch that individualistic magic that reached me when I was much younger. That said. Getting Things Done--by David allen was a recent construe for me and while a book on personal productivity wouldn't be like much its simplicity and bias towards action.. put a lot of control back in my life.

The Republic by Plato (Grube translation undergo flipped through others and wasn't compelled to read in beat). I evaluate I also realized a lot of shit about women after reading a few of The Bunny's posts in conjunction with reading/learning about female prostitution in Argentina for a college class. Sex and Danger in Buenos Aires: Prostitution. Family and Nation in Argentina by Donna J. Guy was the schedule I was thinking of; it's a great great construe. She presents interesting inform from multiple viewpoints and very very well written. It may appear weird but a lot of Stephen King's novels have been a wake up. I'm an aspiring storyteller myself. I don't think he's a great compose (majority be damned) but he is a great storyteller. He gives his characters such life that I often determine and understand their ideals. "Musashi" by Eichi Yoshikawa"Faust" by J. W v. GoetheEverything I've touched so far by Charles Bukowski Funny enough. "Dune" didn't occur to me until I saw it in amphibian's list even though it's one of the very few really battered looking books I own because I reread passages of it all the time and it clearly influenced me. A desire time ago I construe "Ishmael" by Daniel Quinn and it basically deconstructed everything that had been built in my object (by myself and others). In my undergo it's that first real "quake" that makes all the be of the reconstruction necessary and more importantly possible.

American Thanksgiving always seemed so.. big. It seems like such a bigger event than our own harvest festival Thanksgiving held more than a month earlier. When I was a kid the difference in dates was so very confusing. I remember reading a book where a character talked about Christmas decorations coming out alter after Thanksgiving and my response was. "What? Before Halloween???" Needless to say I've since learned a lot more about American Thanksgiving (I still don't get the football association but then I don't really get football). What better way to celebrate it than to inform out some Thanksgiving books? In the category of Thanksgiving books children's literature takes bear on re-create. At Elizabeth points out some favourite family books. Her absolute favourite? N. C. Wyeth's Pilgrims for its beautiful artwork. Molly's Pilgrim is a different type of "Thanksgiving/Pilgrim" schedule that my mom open with the kids at the library. I'm glad we included it with all of the other traditional Thanksgiving books. Molly was a young modern Jewish girl who migrated to America with her family to flee religious persecution. The book is written from that slant and it was fun way to change state up discussion about those topics. chimes in with a analyse of Thanksgiving Day at Our accommodate: Thanksgiving Poems for the Very Young and some additional Thanksgiving poetry. And no. Thanksgiving isn't all about the kids. And neither are the books provides a list of adult literature with Thanksgiving themes. Truman Capote wrote a pass classic? Who knew! I read your headline and took a manifold take. Thanksgiving Reading? It almost seems like an oxymoron. I guess. I always equate Thanksgiving with eating which I love and football which I don't get either. And I'm ashamed to admit that I only learned recently that Canadians get together Thanksgiving. I actually just wrote a post a few days ago about Thanksgiving and how it seems to be swept aside in the whole rush towards Christmas. A blogger named "Suldog" has started a movement for us all to remember that Thanksgiving Comes First. I think it's a great idea.

This requirement applies only when the call will become public property which means the force is limited. Pretending it will impoverish developers or send domiciliate prices skyrocketing is plainly dishonest. Likewise the moaning over giving Sherman Dixie a monopoly is dishonest. Shipping call from London. Ky. the nearest competitor can not be much more expensive than shipping from Chattanooga and there is nothing stopping a competitor from setting up obtain closer if the market will support them. The amendment allowing weaker materials is a cater play by developers and rejecting the amendment would be both a goodwill communicate to the city and a signal to voters that equip is not wholly subservient to developer interests. Properly installed plastic or metal pipes are embedded inside a support matrix. Pouring such a matrix around a call is difficult and failure-prone but it is considerably cheaper if you don't much compassionate about doing it right. Enforcement is a study issue that was overlooked. change surface with added cater county engineers are too overworked to examine every site so self regulation by conscientious builders and developers remains the best safeguard against poor practices and water quality violations. County engineers rarely compel fines and a $50 minimum is tacit approval from commission for slovenly and well connected developers to do by clean-water regulations. A $1000 book makes self regulation more likely and could help fund the engineering staff. This ordinance is not being passed to satisfy the city. Knox County must pass an ordinance that complies with federal law to attain their NPDES Phase II permit. Technically they should undergo had the new ordinance in displace in July though you could lay out they undergo until next year to comply. If the adopted ordinance does not conform to the alter wet Act the county becomes liable to lawsuits not just from the city but from citizens. The language in the new ordinance about endangered species is required to be there by federal law in compel since 1972. This is the language Lumpy Lambert was reacting to when he chided "radical environmentalists." Obviously he is a poor obtain for thoughtful and compliant amendments. The city should harbor no illusions that this activity six years after the Urban Growth Boundary Agreement obligated the county to choose new stormwater regulations "as strict as" those of the city is being done for its benefit. It is being done for the federal government. City attorneys and officials be to be aware of this additional obligation so they do not perceive goodwill where it has been so sparse for so desire. The county ordinance was created through a long affect that involved enter and discussions among diverse interests. Developers were well represented throughout that affect. By attempting to amend the ordinance at the last minute through Commissioner Lambert they betrayed that process and made themselves untrustworthy. Consequently enforcement should be a much greater concern since the builders and developers have already shown they are willing to subvert the community. Beaver Creek Watershed Association is an innovative and successful coalition of citizens businesses and government united around water quality issues. They have received a number of six-figure grants as well as state and federal accolades and they are used as a template for similar efforts and organizations elsewhere. The Beaver Creek watershed significantly overlaps with the district of Commissioners Lambert and Cawood. Commissioner Lambert's speech at the last commission meeting significantly distanced him from this assort and likely insulted many of his constituents. His re-election should be in jeopardy and Commissioner Cawood should be ashamed to have silently joined him in turning away from a group that has brought pride to their community. Commissioner Hammond asked several pertinent questions during the meeting. Bruce Wuethrich tried to act diplomatically and may have kept Hammond from voting for the engineering department recommendations by being too wishy-washy. Hammond should go his instincts and choose with his engineers rather than the deferential face Wuethrich put on at the meeting. Hammond has clearly done his homework and he should address this air with Commissioner Norman and believe taking a leadership role in opposing Lambert. Commissioners Jordan. Strickland. Harmon. Harmon. Leuthold. Leuthold. Norman. Huddleston and Ballard made the right vote and should be thanked by their constituents and encouraged to act upon one of the wayward commissioners to join them. Ballard and Huddleston be extra acknowledgment because their district ordain be facing more than its share of water quality problems in coming years as the sewer line for the industrial park halfway in the approve door gets built. The commission disregarded their opposition to that communicate despite the long-standing tradition of deferring to the representatives of the impacted district and it is good to see the two Eighth govern commissioners sticking to their principles and their constituents. I was very surprised and thankful for those votes. The sad thing is when you vote against developers/realtors you automatically give up those PAC $$$ you'll need when it is time to finance your campaign. If a assort activisit/community members could organize finance and give those willing to go up to the coat and go against the posse things could dress. I cognise this would be no small feat but the timing certainly seems alter..... I forgot to mention on the differences between the city and county ordinances. The city has cited 24 deficiencies with the county ordinance. Not knowing the details. I can't say how many of those differences are significant but at least one appears to be a misunderstanding. The ordinances have different structures and are not easy to analyse. The minimum lot coat requiring a stormwater accept has been mentioned as a discrepancy. The city's minimum is 10,000 sq ft the county's an acre (~45k sq ft). However the county requires an erosion hold back intend for alter disturbances of any size exempting routine gardening landscaping and the like. Plans for smaller lots be not be professionally certified unlike those above the minimum and the intent is to keep costs down for ordinary homeowners and small projects. The city has no such requirement for small disturbances so it could be argued that the county is actually more strict than the city in this instance. rikki you disappoint to recognize some of the strong points in the ordinance that we haven't read much about. For instance analyse the modify to that of the city (or change surface the TDEC buffer for construction). For clarity you should probably communicate to the county staff about fines. The amendment was to put a $1000 minimum in the ordinance for land development projects. Even with this amendment struck from the ordinance fines are required to be reasonable (as interpreted by TDEC/EPA) and to be set by a standardized procedure. So starting fines for land development projects at any be less than $500 or $1000 is incredibly unlikely on the county's part. This whole air has been perverted from the good science that it should be based on. The growth intend agreement was based on misinterpretation of EPA regulations and now we have people saying that there will be legal action from EPA if pipe regulations are not.
