The cars we'd love to give our moms
With enough money in our bank accounts, these are the cars we think our moms would like the best. Although the traditional flowers will most likely hold sway.

Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport
Did your mom drag race the family car back in the early 1960s, with bleach-blond hair and a cool pair of shades? Then she'll appreciate the Corvette Grand Sport.
With all of the handling characteristics of the big Z06 but with a more manageable 460 horsepower on tap, this classic in the making is the sports car mom deserves.

Imagine mom taking a drive through the country, wind in her hair, behind the wheel of the Mini Cooper Convertible. This car offers a carefree driving experience and loads of fun. At the same time, its compact size means it won't take up too much room in the garage, so it can work as a second car. Impressive fuel economy and responsive handling reward the engaged, but frugal, driver.
Range Rover Evoque Convertible
The Evoque Convertible has everything a sun-loving California mom needs: A drop top for the sunny days, a spacious interior for the grandkids and the dog that hates everyone but her. And it's got a taller ride height as she starts to shrink. Also, since it's a Range Rover, it has the added luxury and class that'll help apologize for all those times you were a jerk teenager.
Read First Take
4 of 13 Tim Stevens/Roadshow
The Volvo V60 is a great choice for a mom who wants all the practicality of an SUV -- but maybe not the size. Its AWD system and potent four-cylinder engine give it plenty of capability, and the wagon layout gives her plenty of capacity. And, being a Volvo, it's among the safest cars on the road. You want your mom to be safe, right?
5 of 13 Audi
Audi's latest Allroad is based on its latest A4, which might just be our favorite compact luxury sedan. Lurking somewhere between a crossover and a luxury wagon, the Allroad offers the best of all worlds, utility and a modicum of sport without the bloat. It also boasts one of the nicest interiors in the business, including Audi's dazzling Virtual Cockpit.
The Outback is the go-to car for those who love the great outdoors. Hiking and camping moms can use the Subaru to fit their gear and friends off the beaten track. Taking advantage of the car's 8.7-inches of ground clearance and standard all-wheel-drive, mom isn't likely to get lost in the woods. The Outback serves as a perfectly comfortable onroad driver, too, with available features such as Subaru's EyeSight adaptive cruise control, which takes some of the stress from highway cruising while helping prevent accidents.
7 of 13 Antuan Goodwin/Roadshow
Since its inception in 2012, this has been one of our favorite small SUVs. Now in its second generation, the Mazda CX-5 boasts more mom-appeal than ever with a more premium cabin, amenities like a power liftgate and a much more comfortable ride. Through this latest evolution, it has maintained its wallet-friendly price, which means it's still a good choice for new families.
The XC90 is the softroader that put Volvo back on the map. With a minimalist, modern cabin and crisp exterior design, this handsome Swede will get the neighbors' tongues clacking. Thankfully, it's also nice to drive, with a sophisticated twin turbocharged four-cylinder and an available plug-in hybrid powertrain.
9 of 13 Toyota
Toyota's Highlander is a smart choice for moms who want flexibility. There's plenty of room for up to 7 passengers and enough space to gobble up the most ambitious Costco runs. The Highlander also features parent-friendly technologies such as Driver Easy Speak, which subtly broadcasts the driver's voice through the car's speakers, so mom can chat with the kids in the third row without shouting at the top of her lungs.
10 of 13 Chris Paukert/Roadshow
For 2018, Land Rover's Discovery has come of age as a family hauler. It's more capable than ever off-road, but it's also more capacious, efficient, and sports a boatload of tech. You can even open the doors with an RFID wristband and configure the rear seats from your phone. Roughing it has never been so posh.
11 of 13 Wayne Cunningham/CNET Roadshow
Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid
The sleek Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid is one of the best choices for moms with large families. This plug-in hybrid boasts 33 miles of electric range per charge and, beyond that, 84 mpge combined, making it by far the most fuel-efficient minivan in the world. Plus, it's got Uconnect Theater rear-seat entertainment and plenty of tech up front to keep mom entertained, too.
12 of 13 Emme Hall/Roadshow
For the adventurous mom, may we present the Ford F-150 Raptor. This bad-boy will take mom anywhere she wants to go, and we mean anywhere. 450 horsepower urges mom to let loose on the whoops, while the 510 pound-feet of torque can get her up and over those rocks. Why let dad have all the fun?
13 of 13 Nicholas Miotke/Roadshow
The Honda Ridgeline is the perfect truck for those moms who need a truck but don't want to drive a truck. Riding on independent suspension in the rear, instead of the traditional solid axle, the Ridgeline behaves like a crossover, but has all the benefits of a pick-up truck. Mom can tow up to 5,000 pounds and throw over 1,500 pounds of payload in the back, and with the in-bed audio system, she can host her own tailgate party.

Three Routes Norman Osborn's Character In The MCU Might Take
Three Routes Norman Osborn's Character In The MCU Might Take
If Sony Is Saving Norman Osborn For The MCU Spider-Man Films Rather Than Featuring Him In Their Own SSU, I Believe The Storyline Can Take One Of These Three Directions:
There has been a lot of speculation regarding whether we will ever see Oscorp in the MCU. With the return of the legendary William Dafoe as the menacing Green Goblin from the Raimi films, fans have been demanding more of the Wall-crawler's arch-enemy. The Green Goblin is to Spider-Man what the Joker is to Batman. For future Tom Holland Spider-Man films, the MCU requires its own Norman Osborn.
Listen to me out. I'm aware that the licensing rights to Norman Osborn's and Green Goblin's characters are actually held by Sony. However, if Sony is saving the character for the MCU Spider-Man films rather than featuring him in their own SSU, I believe the storyline can take one of these three directions:
1) Iron Patriot/Green Goblin Path:
Norman Osborn As The Iron Patriot
Under Justin Hammer at Hammer Industries, Norman Osborn might have been an executive who takes over when Hammer is convicted. I make this claim based on the fact that Osborn renamed S.H.I.E.L.D. as H.A.M.M.E.R. when he gained control of the organization in the comics' Dark Reign/Dark Avengers arc, despite the fact that the acronym's meaning was never clarified.
We might anticipate him taking over Hammer Industries and working alongside President Ross if the MCU is adapting the Dark Reign saga in any way, as we can see from the upcoming Thunderbolts and President Red Hulk. He would then rename the company Oscorp, much like Darren Cross did when he took over Pym Tech and changed its name to Cross Tech.
Peter encounters the MCU 616 universe's Norman Osborn and is understandably skeptical. However, Norman Osborn does not turn into the Green Goblin as he had hoped. Instead, as a result of the Armor Wars, Norman obtains Rhodes' Iron Patriot Armor from the final battle of Avengers Endgame.
His Iron-Man Armor and prior heroic achievements make him appear to the public as the second coming of Tony Stark rather than the insane Green Goblin Peter encountered in No Way Home. This causes Peter to question whether he can trust Norman to be the decent person he appears to be.
A villain seems to be after Spider-Man and/or Osborn throughout all the occurrences. Additionally, Osborn is not donning the Armor when the villain approaches him. However, Spider-Man believes in Norman Osborn and saves him. After the fight, Norman Osborn discovers that he is overly reliant on his armor and lacks the same level of inner power as Spider-Man. As a result, Osborn sets out to make his own equivalent of the Super Soldier serum, which, in a post-credits scene, becomes the Green Goblin serum.
As a result of the craziness resulting from the Dark Reign/Dark Avengers plotline of the next films, Norman would gradually switch from the red and blue Iron Patriot Armor to the menacing Green Goblin suit.
2) Harry Osborn Green Goblin Path:
Harry Osborn The Green Goblin
In the upcoming trilogy, Peter attends college and makes new friends, one of whom is "Harold," as mentioned, while the teacher takes attendance or something. We don't know the character's last name for quite a while, comparable to Michelle Jones/MJ in "Homecoming." The film might have a prominent antagonist such as Mac Gargan's Scorpion or Venom. However, near the end, we witness some dialogue, such as "Let us begin on a new note." My name is Harold Osborn. But you can address me as Harry." At this point, we see Peter stunned at the name Osborn, and then Norman arrives to pick up his son, surprising Peter even more.
The following film shows Peter becoming increasingly suspicious of Norman and attempting to look into him by following him around a lot. As goblin appearances increase, Peter feels Norman is to blame. His alleged odd behavior toward Norman strains his bond with Harry. But in the end, when Peter was able to capture the Goblin, Harry was the person hiding behind the mask. It is revealed that, because of his father's lofty aspirations, the boy stole an advanced serum from his lab in an attempt to boost his power and intelligence but instead developed goblin madness. Norman accuses himself of being at fault for everything and sends Harry abroad for therapy, but he also accuses Peter of failing to acknowledge how his friend was in distress.
3) Peter And Norman Being Friends Path :
Peter Being Norman's Assistant
The Osborn Cooperation may transform into the Vought International (The Boys) of the Marvel Cinematic Universe if Norman finds the ideal cure for a new and enhanced version of the super soldier serum with the intention of marketing it to the people of Earth 616 and selling it to the military. The Osborn Cooperation decides to hire Peter Parker because of his incredible reputation as a technological and scientific genius. Peter makes the Osborn Cooperation successful on his own, which attracts Mr. Osborn's notice. As a result of their growing friendship, Parker is promoted to be Norman's assistant.
Peter Parker takes issue with Norman Osborn's decision to promote this as a public brand, and their ethics come into conflict until Norman becomes frustrated and experiments on himself, resulting in the birth of the Green Goblin, which makes him dangerous not only as a villain but also as the holder and distributor of a global corporate name.
Spider-Man Freshman Year
Spiderman : Freshman Year
It's possible that Spider-Man: Freshman Year doesn't take place in the main MCU reality, but it's more likely set in a realm nearby in the MCU multiverse, making it a part of the MCU franchise and enabling it to have fascinating connections to the main continuity. For example, Norman Osborn will play a role equivalent to that of Tony Stark, mentoring Peter Parker before probably assuming the identity of his Spider-themed alter ego. Given the pivotal roles he played in Spider-Man: No Way Home and is expected to play in Spider-Man: Freshman Year, Norman Osborn's eventual entrance into the main MCU universe appears unavoidable.

The heating element is laid in parallel, with an interval of 10-20 cm under the cable is laid a layer of thermal insulation, prevent the loss of heat. Top of all that is poured a layer of cement mortar of thickness 2-5 cm power cable is supplied to the thermostat. Thermostat – the only visible part of the system. Coffee floor heating is by far the dominant. It is much easier to install and more reliable in technical terms.
Surface of the heating system running on electricity, flooring laid is not recommended. Such system, unlike vodotsirkulyatsionnoy quickly heats the floor, which leads to corrosion of the flooring. When laying the flooring over the "warm floor" should take into account the thickness of the hardwood planks. The optimum thickness – 13-15 mm. Parquet 10 mm thick can not be used and the thickness of 20 mm is different too low heat transfer. This can lead to an increase in heat consumption. The use of devices floor heating usually leads to bias and gaps in parquet flooring.
In this case, you must perform a double bonding, as described above. When installing flooring over underfloor heating devices must use a barrier – a polymer film-insulator thickness of 0.2 mm. The film should be laid as close as possible to the parquet floor. When laying the flooring on top of heating system in each room should have its own floor, which ends in the field of doorways. For a couple of days before laying a parquet floor heating system must be disabled. Once the floor is laid, the heating system once again turned on. After turning on the heating system of its power should be increased gradually. Fast increase in temperature in the room with freshly hardwood floors lead to the deterioration (peresushke) parquet and cracking. Sometimes arose; aet need to lay flooring in the room is not exactly suitable conditions. Under floor may be located a cold basement. In such cases, the insulating properties of the flooring can add additional insulation. Introduction to the floor construction of additional layers of thermal insulator (eg, sheet cork or fiberboard) successfully solves this problem. But sometimes faced with a situation where a parquet floor in a screed for one reason or another have been hot water pipe or laid on the previously compiled water heating system design. On the parquet laying on the warm floor, we have discussed above. I would like to remind you that you should carefully select all materials, paying attention to the maximum allowable positive temperature of specifications. Many glues, varnishes and mastics are not designed for values higher than 50 C. Their use at higher temperatures can sometimes cause degradation of properties, degradation of materials with separation, in particular, gases, which in turn may affect the integrity of the sexes. Tree in such conditions, crack, warp, crack. Sometimes there is cracking and rupture of the lacquer coating. Somewhat improve the situation will help arrangements for a more even distribution of heat under the floor. For this example, use a porous insulating material covered with foil, or similar material in combination with foil. Among the most common defects of parquet floors that occur during their operation, are the cracks between riveting and bulging and buckling hardwood floors. The presence of small hair cracks between the elements of the parquet floor, as Typically, during the winter heating season is normal and due to low humidity indoors.

Lessons Learned About Working with Policymakers in Passing Nation's First Lead Ammunition Ban
In October 2013, California's Governor Jerry Brown signed AB 711, making it illegal to use lead ammunition for hunting, a ban that will be phased in from 2015 to 2019.
For UC Santa Cruz environmental toxicologists Donald Smith and 1998 Switzer Fellow Myra Finkelstein, the bill represents the translation of years of scientific research into a new policy to protect people and wildlife from lead poisoning.
In November, I talked with Myra Finkelstein about lessons scientists can learn from her experience working with policymakers.
Switzer: Why is this law important?
Finkelstein: AB 711 requires the use of non-lead ammunition for hunting in California. It is an important law for both wildlife and human health in California because use of lead ammunition is the largest unregulated discharge of lead into the environment. It is the cause of chronic poisoning of condors released into the wild, and can...Read more >

Does Probiotic Microorganism Lactobacillus reuteri Prevent Allergic Rhinitis and Rhinoconjunctivitis Development in Children
*Lilijana Besednjak-Kocijancic

The author has declared no conflicts of interest.
Allergic rhinitis (AR) and allergic rhinoconjunctivitis (ARC) are common chronic disorders in children.1 They have a strong impact on the quality of life of children.2 Many studies indicate that colonisation of the gut early in life plays a substantial role in directing immune-system development.3 Microbial exposure during the perinatal period is linked to the epigenetic regulation of genes involved in allergic inflammation, and it alters susceptibility to allergic diseases. Immune responses in the gut may modulate immune responses in distant target organs, including the nose.4 Unlike in other allergic diseases, the therapeutic effect of probiotics in AR has been primarily demonstrated, whereas their preventive effects have not been conclusively defined.5 The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of the probiotic microorganism Lactobacillus reuteri-DSM 17938 (LR) in the prevention of the development of AR and ARC in Slovenian children aged 9 years old.
This prospective, epidemiological study included 316 maturely born infants with a positive history of parental allergy. The children were born between January 2008 and June 2010, were without congenital anomalies, and had a birth weight of at least 3 kg. They were exclusively breastfed for at least 4–6 months. After the fourth month, the same dietary intake for the child and avoidance of probiotics usage was recommended to parents. According to the addition of LR into the child's diet, children were divided into two groups: Group A, 201 children exclusively breastfed, and Group B, 115 children breastfed with addition of LR. From the age of 4 weeks, the mothers of Group B infants added LR to breastfeeding for 12 weeks. Daily, 100 million live LR were given directly into the child's mouth (87.8%) or were applied on the mother's nipple while breastfeeding (12.2%). Every child was followed up by the same paediatrician until they were 9 years old. The prevalence of doctor-diagnosed AR and ARC was observed. The diagnosis was based on clinical history, examination, and allergy testing (elevated specific IgE and positive skin prick tests) performed by a physician unaware of the child's group allocation. Data about frequency and duration of AR and ARC exacerbations were recorded. Chi-squared test with Yates' correction and paired t-test were used for statistical analysis. p-values less than 0.05 were considered significant.
At 9 years, the prevalence of AR and ARC in the study group was 19.6% (10.4% of children had AR, 9.2% had ARC). The difference in the prevalence of two diseases was nonsignificant (p>0.05). No significant sex-specific difference in AR (males: 11.0%; females: 9.8%) or ARC (males: 6.7%; females: 11.7%) prevalence was found (p>0.05). The prevalence of AR was significantly lower in Group B (13.9% [A] versus 4.3% [B]; p=0.01). No significance between group difference in ARC prevalence was confirmed (9.5% [A] versus 8.7% [B]; p>0.05) (Figure 1). Lower frequency (episodes/child: 6.3 [A] versus 4.6 [B]) and shorter mean duration (days/episode: 13.9 [A] versus 11.4 [B]) of AR exacerbation episodes in Group B were observed (p<0.01).
Figure 1: Prevalence of allergic rhinitis and allergic rhinoconjunctivitis in each group of infants.
AR: allergic rhinitis; ARC: allergic rhinoconjunctivitis.
The between group difference in frequency (5.9 [A] versus 6.0 [B]) and duration (15.8 [A] versus 16.5 [B]) of ARC exacerbations was insignificant (p>0.1).
The study confirms that early-life supplementation with LR is efficient in the primary AR prevention; additionally, it has beneficial impact on the course of AR. However, the study failed to demonstrate a positive effect on occurrence
and course of ARC.

Q: Error handling with deeply nested async functions I'm having issues catching error when the functions are nested three levels deep.  Here is a router with async functions:
router.post('/',
  validatevalues,
  async (req, res) => {
    // if values are invalid then
    // return res.status(422).send(errors.msg);

    const result = await userController.post(req.body);
    return res.status(201).send('Success');
  },
);

const userController = {
    async post(req) {
        try {
            await bcrypt.genSalt()
            await bcrypt.hash();
            await db.query(req.somevalues);
        }  catch (err) {
            console.error(err);
        };
    };
};

const query = {
    return new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
      ...
      if (err) {
        reject(new Error(err));
      } else {
        resolve(res);
      };
    };
};

The console.error(err) is printing this stack trace
Error: error: duplicate key value violates unique constraint...

And then I get Uncaught AssertionError at the router level with Mocha testing:
Uncaught AssertionError: expected { Object (_events, _eventsCount, ...) } to have status code 422 but got 201

This seems expected since I am just console.error instead of throwing another newError at the controller level, but what do I need to do? If I throw another error, then wouldn't the stack trace be Error: error: error ...? This doesn't seem right to me.

A: You should only catch at the highest level:
  router.post('/', validatevalues, async (req, res) => {
    try {
      const result = await userController.post(req.body);
      return res.status(201).send('Success');
    } catch(error) {
      res.status(402).send(error.message);
    }
 });

If you still want to log at a lower level, you can rethrow the error:
    }  catch (err) {
        console.error(err);
        throw err;
    } // no semicolon here, its unneccessary

To maximize information obtained from the Project Baseline collections, seed distribution for research will occur incrementally over the next five decades as follows: 5% of samples may be distributed at 5 yr; 8% at 10 yr; 10% at 15 yr; 20% at 20 yr; 27% at 25 yr; 30% at 40-50 yr.
Requests to use Project Baseline seeds will be based on a formal research proposal process. In 2019, the first proposal solicitation to use the collection will be announced in multiple venues, including: journals and web pages of the Society for the Study of Evolution, the Botanical Society of America, the Genetics Society of America, Evolutionary Ecology Research, and the American Society of Plant Taxonomists, listservs such as EvolDir and Ecolog, the Project Baseline web page, and via PI seminars.
A Proposal Evaluation Committee will be convened by the Advisory Board (add link) and will be composed of seven people including PIs, co-PIs, consultants, and other researchers involved in Project Baseline workshops and/or that have NSF (or similar) panel experience. This committee will review proposals (modeled after NSF guidelines) to withdraw seeds from the collection after five years of storage and at 5yr intervals thereafter. The first call for proposals will focus on annual species, which have had the greatest number of generations to evolve.
Use of unique attributes of the collection: The Project Baseline collection was designed to include a high degree of replication within each species. Depending on the abundance and distribution of each species, the seed bank represents numerous sites, populations, and maternal lines per population. One of many possible examples of an appropriate research design is outlined in Figure 3. Researchers will be expected to explain how their research plan capitalizes on one or more of the following aspects of the collection and on the temporal dimension inherent in resurrection studies.
Taxonomic diversity: Experiments testing specific predictions can be designed to include two or more taxa. If the results are found to be parallel, this enhances the inferential power relative to single-species studies. If hypothesis testing is conducted with only one taxon, the results could reflect idiosyncrasies of the specific taxon, not a more general evolutionary pattern.
Multiple populations sampled across the species range: It is unlikely that populations within a species will evolve at the same rate or by the same mechanisms. Geographic variation in evolutionary processes has rarely been studied but will be possible with the Project Baseline collection. Populations may evolve differently because of inherent differences in genetic architecture or because the strength or efficacy of natural selection differs across the species range. The fact that this collection includes populations sampled broadly across each species' range offers opportunities to test a host of questions regarding spatial variation in gene flow, the strength and direction of natural selection, fragmentation, evolution across environmental gradients, and the magnitude of change during intervening time period.
Samples of conspecific populations sampled within close proximity to each other (i.e., within a site): Evolution happens at the population level and can differ between populations even within a single site. Inclusion of replicate populations from a single site will strengthen scientific inferences because this approach helps to prevent drawing general conclusions that reflect the peculiarities of an individual population.
Populations of different species sampled from the same site: Because more than one species was sampled from some sites, it will be possible to examine how distinct species sampled from same community have responded to the biotic and abiotic change over time.
Sister taxa: Experiments that include sister taxa can provide evidence that observed changes over time are a function of adaptation rather than phylogenetic inertia . Phylogenetic inertia refers to the tendency for related species to have similar traits simply because they both inherited those traits from a common ancestor. Inclusion of sister taxa in experiments will permit researchers to reject the phylogenetic inertia hypothesis if sister taxa evolve in different ways.
Maternal lines: Tremendous extra effort was necessary to collect and store seeds by maternal line. This was done to provide opportunities to study genetic structure within populations and to permit quantitative genetic estimates of heritability and to test predictions regarding the evolutionary response to selection.


The most common termite species found in New Mexico is the Eastern subterranean termite. An Eastern subterranean termite colony can consume five grams of wood each day. They will eat cellulose material like structural wood, wood fixtures, paper, books and cotton. They are most destructive to Douglas fir and other wood used in construction. They will destroy the inner sections of the wood, eating mainly the spring wood and leaving the harder summer wood behind. This will leave wood extremely weak and can destroy billions in property every year. Termites can greatly devalue a home with the damage they cause.
Subterranean termite colonies are slow to grow and can take years before signs of damage are seen. When a colony reaches maturity, it can number 20,000 to 5 million workers, with an average of about 300,000. The queen of the colony will add 5,000 to 10,000 eggs each year it is active. Colonies are typically found in the ground below the frostline. Secondary colonies can be found above ground. Colonies are made up of groups of termites that have specific jobs. The king and queen of a colony can live for 10 to 30 years and workers only live for a couple of years. The workers are a creamy white color and soldiers have elongated yellowish heads with large jaws. They are the same size as an adult worker, about 1/4 inch. Termites can be mistaken for ants. To tell the difference you'll need to look their waists. Ants have narrow wasp-like waists and termites have a broad waist. The workers are the ones that feed on wood and cause all the damage.
Termites can enter through cracks the are smaller than 1/16 of an inch wide. During fall, termites create nests inside structures. They will usually swarm on warm Spring days after a rainfall. It is essential for termites to live in moist, dark and damp environments. Optimal soil temperatures are around 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Homes in active areas are 1 in 5 more likely to have been or will be under attack from termites.
You will know you are dealing with termites if you see them swarming or other signs. These signs include cracked paint on wood surfaces, mud tubes on exterior walls and frass. Frass is a fine powdery refuse or fragile perforated wood produced by termites. The dirt-colored tubes are built to protect the paths they take between the earth and the wood they are eating. Their discarded translucent wings are another sign. The kings and queens will shed their wings when they swarm. Because workers are always in their nests, it is very hard to find them. Eastern subterranean termites need to be treated by professionals that can positively identify them.
Early detection means more options with treatment and less damage. Termite inspections are a great way to protect your home. If you own a home in New Mexico, contact Bugman, Inc. to schedule an inspection and come up with a treatment and prevention plan.

I just don't believe they'd allow that kind of decision.The Bulls were without All-Star guard Zach LaVine and reserve guard Troy Brown Jr., and minutes before tipoff, they announced that All-Star center Nikola Vucevic was a late Cheap Stitched Snapback Caps after dealing with tightness in his right adductor.

Since 2011, the Arab world has gone through a particularly striking transition that saw autocratic leaders fall from power but failed to lead to democratic governance. What has emerged since are wars and the disintegration of some states, in addition to counter coups that have largely diminished hopes for democratization. Throughout this time, conflicts from Yemen to Libya, and most poignantly in Iraq and Syria, took on a regional and international tone, highlighted by the Iranian-Saudi rivalry.

The Walker Curates the News: 06.08.15
by Walker Art Center | Jun 8, 2015
León Ferrari's La Civilización Occidental y Cristiana (Western Christian Civilization), 1965. Photo courtesy Walker Art Center
León Ferrari's La Civilización Occidental y Cristiana, a six-foot sculpture depicting Christ crucified on a US war plane, "marks a moment in which pop art is radicalized in Argentina—all in the months before the first of two oppressive military regimes takes over the country," writes Carolina Miranda. Part of the Walker's International Pop show, the work was criticized when it was shown as part of a 2004 retrospective of Ferrari's work in Buenos Aires: Archbishop Jorge Mario Bergoglio—now known as Pope Francis—described the Vietnam-era protest work as "blasphemy" and "an embarrassment."
"Every time you connect to the internet, you pass through time, space, and law." A browser plug-in that reveals the locale of the websites you visit, James Bridle's Citizen Ex offers a glance of how our web usage is viewed—and possibly governed—by companies and nations.
Protests by MoMA employees over proposed benefit cuts raise questions "in the debate over what, and how, a museum should be," writes CityLab's Laura Bliss: "In the balance between pleasing donors and serving the public, where do employees hang?" Meanwhile, as negotiations continue, the UAW Local 2110, the union representing the museum's 280-member professional staff, has launched the #WeAreMoMA social media campaign to highlight those who'd be affected by cutbacks, from photographers and librarians to curatorial assistants and editors.
Philippe Parreno isn't the kind of artist to merely hang art on a wall, writes Randy Kennedy. "He wants to take down the wall and put up his own wall." His Park Avenue Armory show will use every part of the building, challenging the very notion of what an exhibition can be.
"It's too early in the fight for inclusion to give up on the museum," writes Darby English, director of the Clark Art Institute's Research and Academic Program. "The way to erase erasure is by active presence, by acting on one's interest by seizing a place and, when necessary, making oneself felt."
Tate's Nicholas Serota, Queens Museum director Laura Raicovich, and M+ curator Doryun Chong are among 60 art-world leaders who've written to developers of Saadiyat Island museums decrying treatment of Gulf Labor activists recently barred from entering the United Arab Emirates: "We state that denying artists visas, stopping and deporting them after years of their work in the region, creates a chilling precedent and makes it difficult for arts and academic institutions in the UAE, and those working with the UAE to claim regional dialogue and artistic freedom."

Yup, Zayn and Perrie are tying the knot according to the Mirror, after Perrie was spotted with a massive sparkler on her ring finger at the premiere of One Direction: This Is Us last night.
The One Direction member and his girlfriend of only 18 months are said to be engaged after insiders close to the couple said Zayn - who met Little Mix singer Perrie backstage at 'The X Factor' in 2011 - went down on one knee at the weekend.
As for us? We're getting ready for the inevitable onslaught of date and baby speculation. A Zaby or a Berrbie?

Lt. Gov. visits San Francisco students who expressed anxiety over rise in hate speech

SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) -- A visit to a San Francisco high school by Lieutenant Governor Gavin Newsom got very emotional Monday morning.
Students at Burton High School cried and expressed their anxiety over the rise in hate speech since Donald Trump's election.
Students said they felt rejected for being different and feared a rise in deportations.
"I'm not facing anything, but it's like I'm scared for my family and my friends that are immigrants," said Karen Hwang, a student.
"You heard from the kids today, fear and anxiety about their families being deported, about their dreams being destroyed. That's real," Newsom said.
San Francisco's superintendent is sending families a letter to reassure them.
It says the district will protect students against what it describes as "systematic oppression."

Hercules can lift many things: houses, mountains, tree trunks.
But so far he has been impotent at his most important task: hoisting the Walt Disney Company's stock price.
In its first two weeks of general release, Disney's latest animated feature, ''Hercules,'' has taken in only about $58 million at the box office -- a poor showing, compared with other recent Disney summer releases, like 1995's ''Pocahontas,'' which took in $80 million in its first two weeks, and 1994's ''The Lion King,'' which grossed $119 million.
One Disney executive, who declined to be named, said ''Hercules'' -- like last summer's animation, ''The Hunchback of Notre Dame'' -- had failed to capture the whole family the way that earlier Disney animations did. And there is simply more competition this summer, he contended.
''Hercules'' is clearly a disappointment for Disney, whose aggressive marketing of the film included a traffic-choking Saturday night parade through Manhattan a few weeks ago. But the fallen hero is hardly the whole reason that Disney's share price has slipped 9.7 percent from its 52-week high of $85.375 a share on May 12 to close yesterday at $77.0625.
There are other questions about Disney's performance in the near term that have contributed to some analysts' skittishness.
Attendance at its theme parks, for instance, is expected to rise only about 4 percent this year, the company has indicated to analysts, compared with about 8 percent last year, when public interest was piqued by the 25th anniversary of Walt Disney World.
Then there is the current commotion at the ABC broadcast network, which Disney acquired in 1996 and has just undergone yet another management shake-up.
''It is ugly,'' said Tom Wolzien, a media analyst at Sanford Bernstein & Company, discussing the problems at ABC, where Stuart Bloomberg was recently named chairman of the programming arm, ABC Entertainment, in an effective demotion for the president, Jamie Tarses.
None of these issues is so dramatic that stock analysts are racing to take Disney off their recommended lists. But several have grown cautious on forecasts that Disney's profit growth will slow in the second half of the year. That performance may dissuade some ''momentum investors'' seeking quarter-to-quarter increases.
Still, for the whole year, David Londoner, an analyst who follows the company for Schroder & Company, said that he still expected Disney to achieve growth of 18 percent, which has become the company's annual hallmark.
Disney, which is expected to have revenue of $22 billion this year, has a strong brand name that can presumably withstand the current spate of problems -- whatever tarnish might come from news accounts of conservative Christian protests against the company's policy of providing employee health care insurance to homosexual couples, or the former Disney executive Jeffrey Katzenberg's lawsuit seeking a share of profits.
And foreign audiences, a big part of the company's market, are typically oblivious to such issues.
''People are wary of Disney after 'Hunchback' and 'Pocahontas,' '' said Sandra Bass, editor of Avenue, a Manhattan life-style magazine. She is the mother of two young daughters, who saw both of those previous films; she took one of the girls to ''Hercules'' last week.
So far, executives at the company and the analysts that follow it are not terribly worried about Disney's summer doldrums. Indeed, Merrill Lynch's Jessica Reif views the stock dip as a buying opportunity.
But if the next Disney animated film -- ''Mulan,'' scheduled for next summer -- continues the trend of opening slowly, or if a rival studio produces an animated blockbuster, it may take a truly Herculean effort to lift the stock.

ArcTanGent Festival 2019 - The Review | Friday
Photo: Dean Harries
It's 11am, artisan coffee is being consumed en-mass and in true ArcTanGent fashion, the iron skies above have opened. With that in consideration, it seems to be the perfect environmental backdrop for the desolate beauty of A.A Williams (8). Sorrowful and ponderously ghostly, Williams and her backing collective perfectly embody the gathering storm outside the Arc stage, providing the ideal soundtrack for the sobering bleakness of the impending downpour. Whilst the collective are not the most sonically heavy artist to perform this weekend, in terms of atmosphere and aesthetic they are simply, utterly ruining. Performing tracks from her self titled debut, William's tender vocals slow dance against a sepia tapestry of grief and whilst the thought of an artist such as A.A Williams opening a main stage at a festival does certainly challenge the stereotypical notion of festival's being reserved for vibrant hedonism, here at ArcTanGent such a set is idealistic. A wonderful exercise in artistically authentic woe.
In contrast, in the neighbouring Bixler, Brighton's Clt Drp (8) are wild, hyperactive and borderline feral. Like stray cats, the group strut the stage whilst radiating empowering and exciting eclectic energy with their angular, adolescent and extremely electric electropunk. Ebbing and flowing between fluorescent minimalism and obnoxious full frontal assaults of punk expressionism, Clt Drp are wildly exciting to witness this ever so bleak morning. The recently released 'Speak To My' emphasis's their glitching and empowering vigour, with the group tackling misogyny and body shaming with sporadic intensity. Even with Clt Drp only forming in the tail end of this decade, it's clear to see why they have been the subject for such praise within the DIY scene as of late and it's transparent they possess the vitality to chaotically usher in the next wave of electropunk.
Sheltered under the canopy of the Yohkai stage, Slow Crush's (7) blend of translucent and ethereal shoegaze is pacifying to the point where it seems to ease the increasing downpour outside. With their take on a genre commonly perceived as stoic being incredibly accessible yet fulfilling, it's most remarkable that this set marks Slow Crush's first appearance at this event. However, given the full capacity turnout, it's evident that their arrival has been greatly anticipated. Even at their most thunderous, Slow Crush gleam with celestial beauty, with the glinting density of 'Glow' and 'Beached' pulling the crowd into a storm of their own design and doing. With a re-release of their debut EP Ease forthcoming, the pace in which their following has grown is a testament to their skill, dexterity they prove today.
Even with the new borderline torrential downpour saturating the earth past the point of no return, the math rock duo Standards (8) bring warmth and vibrancy to the quagmire that has become Fernhill Farm. With their youthfully joyous creativity and jubilance, the LA twosome weave a sonic painting compose of primary colours and intricacy. With their love for elated dynamism being both displayed and performed, their upbeat jovial buoyancy is a delightful contrast to some of the maleficent and holistic groups performing this weekend. Flying though colours from this year's Friends, Standards inject a level of childlike wonder and energy into a genre often perceived as stoic, with the group gleaming with ecstatic radiance. Closing with a colossal and life affirming wall of life (much like a wall of death, but with hugs substituting mindless violence) Standards prove they are as jubilantly wholesome as they are skilled.
Continuing the trend of technicolor wholesome progression on the Arc stage are New Jersey's Thank You Scientist (7). Utilising an entire palette of instrumentation to fantastically whimsical effect, throughout the course of their set the 7 piece prove to be a hedonistic musical circus of verdant creativity. Dancing through playful choice cuts from the recently released Terraformer, the New Jersey septet are a delightful treat to witness this water logged Friday afternoon, with the group marring carefree fluidity with madcap progressive textures. Animating thoughts of classic prog rock sensibilities with contemporary orchestral instrumentation, content aired from their extended discography entertains the verdant electric progression enjoyed by acts such as Coheed And Cambria and Karnivool but with added eccentric creativity. Understandably however, the crowning jewels of this set are timeless fan favourites from their previous offerings, with the brass sugar rush of 'Mr. Invisible' and the explosion of rapid colour that is 'My Famed Disappearing Act' igniting mass joy within the water logged Arc. Admittedly, whilst the reception for the most part may be dampened by the unforgiving weather baring down on Fernhill Farm, Thank You Scientist spread joy at it's most technical and creative.
Like stated repeatedly, the weather is unremittingly awful today - the area around the PX3 tent, not to mention the rest of the arena, is a total mudbath but that doesn't stop the tent packing out for Palm Reader (8). The band arrive onstage wreathed in smoke and intense strobing giving the effect of stop-motion silhouettes set to their cathartic onslaught. Their visceral assault is both visual and sonic, a misanthropic take on mathcore that is only heightened by the misery bucketing out of the sky outside the tent. The crap weather doesn't dampen any spirits and the band pull out all the stops - 'Swarm' incites one of many circle pits during their set and the intimate setting with the fog makes for an oppressive, overpowering set with an overbearing sense of catharsis and even longing during cleaner passages. A stirring, emotional masterclass from an incredible band.
With the weather now teetering between being insufferable and being a genuine humanitarian crisis, it's no surprise that the Arc is over capacity even before 65daysofstatic (9) touch stage. However, even if the weather was completely perfect, it's likely the result would be same. In contrast to the inhospitable conditions, the air of excitement and anticipation within the Arc is tangible, and for good reason indeed. Once 65daysofstatic drop into the beat of 'Prisms' before indulging into the triumphant post-rock euphoria of 'Retreat! Retreat!' all such tension is released spectacularly. With ethereal and pensive tracks from Wild Light and No Mans Sky marring with the fervent power contained within the content from their earlier releases, the genre defying collective are simultaneously blissful and provocative. Seizing and pulsating synth led movements dance and swirl around obtuse post rock punishments, with the likes of 'I Swallowed Hard, Like I Understood' and 'Radio Protector' displaying what density the band are capable of producing and conjuring. It's a phenomenal set, one that truly proves themselves as being consistent leaders of the scene they dominate and one that proves again that they share the same progressive ideology this festival is renewed for. Evidently, it's perfectly clear why they have a stage here named in their honour. A hypnotic set of luscious, rousing soundscapes courtesy of one of post-rock's finest.
Brighton's Black Peaks have already made a name for themselves over the years and this appearance marks a very special, one-off set featuring the enigmatic Jamie Lenman who, whilst cutting his teeth on the sadly-defunct Reuben, has more than come into his own with his solo work. ArcTanGent has been making something of a habit of these collaborations between bands making waves in their respective scenes - first Curse These Metal Hands (playing tomorrow) and now Black Peaks with Jamie Lenman (8), too. Songs have wonderfully off-kilter patterns with all sorts of unpredictable twists and turns, and Jamie Lenman is an immediately compelling frontman making this a captivating experience. A few fan favourites make their appearance and the band draw from across both theirs and Reuben's back catalogue, driving the crowd into a frenzy whenever Jamie nonchalantly announces they'll be "playing something [he] wrote". It's clear everyone on both sides of the barrier is having a whale of a time and it's an incredible celebration of both both Black Peaks and Jamie Lenman - a pairing that seemed perhaps odd at first but an obvious match once you see them.
If the upcoming Russian Circles are the authentic sonic embodiment of authentic steel dread and anxiety, tonight's Yohkai headliners, the wholesome TTNG (9), are the polar opposite. With tonight's performance being the last date of their tour celebrating the tenth anniversary of Animals with original vocalist Stu Smith at the helm, it's not just a celebration not of their land mark debut album, it's an evening of heartwarming emotion, one that's destined to be written in scene history books. With a setlist predominately composed of material from the aforementioned Animals, TTNG flawlessly radiate blissful elegance and delicate intricacy whilst proving to be ever the positive and whimsically wholesome collective they've been constantly lauded as. However, what makes this set bound for the history books the is presence and inclusion of original bassist Dan Adams on additional percussion duties. Sprinkling extra dynamism onto TTNG's already deeply formulated and textured sound, such as adding additional glockenspiel on 'Badger' and trumpets on 'Elk', these additional layers only bolster and animate the collective's calculative and calmative math rock sound.
Even with the group's current dynamic being adjusted with the inclusion of past members, no egos or such are the victim of threat. In fact, as the group bless each other with touching speeches, the level of stirring affection only warms the full capacity Yohkai in the face of the adverse weather and plummeting temperatures. This isn't just a band, it's a collective of friends who find each other's company a blessing, a fact that only becomes heartwarmingly transparent as the group launch into the finale of 'And I'll Tell You Why', 'If I Sit Still, Maybe I'll Get Out Of Here' and '26 Is Dancier Than 4'. With Dan Adams reprising bass duties for the first time in appropriately a decade and with the crowd soulfully singling along in pure passion, this is a performance of spell binding magic and friendship, one that will be reminisced over for many a year to come.
Instrumental trio Russian Circles (7) are subheadlining the main stage today and even without any vocals, there's an immediacy to tracks and an easy connection with the crowd who are held in rapt attention from the outset. Cuts from recently-released Blood Year are altogether a more ominous affair than from previous efforts, but all have an epic, cinematic feel. There's an almost-overlong pause very early on, making it seem like a false start of sorts but the band soon lurch onward again, their thunderously heavy, all-encompassing tone drawing everyone in once more. The heavy use of repetitive rhythms builds a trance-like feel with expansive soundscapes and meandering leads that often swirl over a chugging rhythm section. Fortunately every instrument is given room to breathe and the instrumental nature of the music puts equal weight onto all 3 members and the often minimalist lighting serves more as emphasis to the music than its own entity, further underscoring the waves of sound emnating from the stage. It's perhaps easy to underestimate the emotional draw of instrumental music but Russian Circles make it look effortlessly easy and their captivating soundscapes are not to be missed.
After a multitude of appearances here at Fernhill Farm over the past several years, it's no suspire that Brutus (9) have been awarded the coveted PX3 headline slot this brisk evening. Even after prolonged exposure on our shores since the release of the phenomenal piece of art that is their sophomore release Nest, Brutus pack out the PX3 well before their set, leaving many latecomers exposed to the elements outside the shelter of the tent. However, such a situation proves to be worth enduring. What transpires is an another fantastic performance of progressive sensibilities, with the Belgian trio charging through a headline set of invigorating material that spans their critically acclaimed discography thus far. As the group accelerate into the top gear, with the primary charge of 'War' banishing the unpleasant environmental conditions, their position as stage headliners is simply indisputable. As proven previously here at ArcTanGent, to witness Brutus live is to witness the very manifestation of integral innovation.
Removed of the animosity that is commonly found within this genre, Brutus are transcendently fluid and utterly arresting. Entertaining material from their 2017 debut Burst, the growth this band has displayed thus far is remarkable and truly stands as a testament to their technical prowess, with the spellbinding 'Horde II' and 'Justice De Julia II' adsorbing the masses into captivated awe. As the charging 'All Along' forbears the post rock tinged accomplishment that is the bittersweet 'Sugar Dragon', Brutus don't only prove themselves as the leaders of European progression, they also silently confirm that this is only the first of many festival slots that await them. A performance that allows the inhabitants of the PX3 to ascend to post rock ecstasy, and even with the temperature outside now plummeting, the people of the PX3 leave with their hearts and souls filled with exuberant warmth.

Whoopi Goldberg Labels Herself A 'Jewish-American Princess' Despite Having No Jewish Ancestry & Not Practicing Judaism
Entertainment And News
By Dan O'Reilly — Written on Feb 02, 2022

Whoopi Goldberg's recent faux pas on "The View" in which she stated that the Holocaust "wasn't about race," has landed her in hot water online.
Goldberg has faced criticism for her comments which she seems to have taken to heart, issuing an apology and bringing the CEO of the Anti Defamation League onto her show to discuss how race factored into the Holocaust.
Her response could not save her, however, from the two-week suspension that she has since received.
Goldberg's comments also have people looking back at Goldberg's past comments about Judaism, including the times when she has claimed to be Jewish herself.
All of this has left some confused as to what exactly is Goldberg's connection to the Jewish community.
Is Whoopi Goldberg Jewish?
Goldberg has claimed to be Jewish and has faced backlash for calling herself by the pejorative term, "Jewish-American Princess," but she doesn't seem to have clarified what exactly that means since she neither has Jewish lineage nor does she seem to practice Judaism.
RELATED: 58% Of All Religiously Motivated Hate Crimes Target Jews — Who Only Make Up 2% Of The U.S. Population
Whoopi Goldberg has never converted to Judaism.
By her own admission, Goldberg isn't interested in going to Temple or practicing Judaism in a traditional manner.
She said in a 2016 interview, "I just know I am Jewish. I practice nothing. I don't go to temple, but I do remember the holidays. Religion is a lot of work, it's exhausting. So I keep it simple, I have a pretty good relationship with God. We talk."
Of course, observing Jewish practices and/or believing in Jewish theology are neither prerequisites to be Jewish, nor are they in and of themselves enough to "make" one Jewish. Being Jewish is an ethno-religious nationality — an indigenous peoplehood that originates from the Israelites and Hebrews of historical Israel and Judah dating as far back as the second millennium BCE.
If you are born of Jewish ancestry, you are still Jewish whether or not you believe in or practice any religious aspects of Judaism, whereas, if you are not born of Jewish ancestry, believing in or feeling somehow connected to Jewish religious thought and teachings does not make you Jewish.
Goldberg may feel Jewish. She may well know every single Jewish holiday. She may love everything about the religion. None of that would make her Jewish.
RELATED: Whoopi Goldberg's Comments On 'The View' Reflect A Harmful Misunderstanding About Race & The Holocaust
Whoopi Goldberg does not appear to have any Jewish ancestry.
The best information available online comes from the mid-2000s when a DNA test determined that Goldberg's heritage was 92% African and 8% European with seemingly no specific indication of Jewish ancestry.
With all of that being said, Goldberg has insisted, without evidence, that her last name is part of her heritage and that she there she feels a connection with Israel.
"I feel a real connection there, but also with Palestine as well. We are one people, we really are," she has said.
It's difficult to say how "valid" Goldberg's claim that she's Jewish is given how muddy both the story and definitions are.
Whoopi Goldberg's real name is Caryn Johnson.
Many could assume that Goldberg has Jewish ancestors due to her last name, but even that isn't accurate.
Goldberg was originally born Caryn Johnson, but over the years she took on the name "Whoopi Goldberg," which she has implied may come from somewhere on her mom's side of the family.
Goldberg has said of the unique name situation of her name, "My mother did not name me Whoopi, but Goldberg is my name, it's part of my family, part of my heritage. Just like being black."

Mom-Of-4 Reveals Why She'd Ask Doctors To Save Her Instead Of Her Baby If Problems Arose While Giving Birth
However, it has also been said that her mother suggested she use Goldberg for a last name because Johnson was "not Jewish enough" for her to become famous.
This also reflects another deeply troubling aspect of Goldberg's view of Jews and Judaism, as it suggests she chose to adopt a Jewish identity in order to benefit from privileges she believed would come with a Jewish name and identity, without being aware those privileges were actually just stereotypes, and without doing any research on what it truly means to be part of the Jewish people.
Regardless of where Goldberg perceives herself in relation to Judaism, hopefully her recent actions will lead her to reach out to the Jewish community for education in order to gain a deeper understanding of the experiences of the Jewish people and help her be a better ally to the people she claims to feel so strongly connected with.

In regional news, Coloradans are buying more new cars these days than at any time in the last decade, reports Colorado Public Radio. The trend has lifted the spirits—and the profits—of the state's auto dealers. Many of the state's residents now feel good enough about the economy to invest in big purchases such as automobiles.
Car sales nationwide are expected to grow for a sixth straight year. If growth continues, this will be the longest extended growth period in the history of the auto industry. Coloradans bough almost 200,000 new cars last year—the most in 12 years. Sales are up 80 percent from their low point in 2009. Falling gas process have helped sales, but so have new federal mileage standards, which prompted innovation. On average, people are keeping their cars for a record 11.5 years.
The car industry in Colorado makes up about 20 percent of the sales tax base.
The expanding marijuana industry in Colorado may have hit a financial roadblock, reports The New York Times. Federal banking officials have rejected an application from The Fourth Corner Credit Union in Denver, which serves Colorado's pot industry.
Three water managers in Colorado have stated that the state might have enough water to sustain it in the future, despite dwindling resources, climate change, and a growing population. However, these experts stressed that the state MUST be smart about its water and use it wisely, reports Colorado Public Radio. Colorado's first state water plan, which is available now for viewing, will be finalized in December.
Civil rights for animals may be the next frontier in the struggle for rights, reports Colorado Public Radio. Justin Marceau is the University of Denver's first full-time animal professor, and he has been working hard to fight the so-called "Ag-Gag" law in Idaho, which makes filming inside of farms and slaughterhouses illegal. The litigation supposedly targets "extremists" and "agriterrorists." But Marceau argues that the law would, in fact, prevent whistleblowers from exposing abuses in farms and slaughterhouses.
Last week, on a warm Wednesday evening, 600 riders raced on horseback across the northeastern corner of Colorado. The riders were retracing the route of the legendary Pony Express, to commemorate the mail service's 155th anniversary.

In fact, these new covers are so different from the originals that they offer a great opportunity to demonstrate the importance of knowing your target market – not just at launch, but across your book's lifespan.
Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone was originally aimed at all children aged around eleven. This established the tone for the HP covers – bright, exciting, and imaginative. While the covers did progress towards darker and more dramatic scenes within each design run, they kept pace with (and remained focused upon) their young target market.
Which brings us to the current Pottermore eBook Covers.
They clearly have a strong adult appeal through their more 'traditional' design. However, these covers by no means alienate children; between the bold colors and the stylized illustrations, we can see that these are children's stories at heart. Compare these designs with the original UK Bloomsbury Adult covers above, which did everything they could to remove childlike appeal.
So while these covers were designed to appeal to adults, I think there was a particular group of adults right at the center of the bullseye: old fans.
After all, it's been twenty years since Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone was published. There's a large cohort of adult readers who grew up with these books, and now own eReaders. Why not appeal to this group with elements of the children's series they loved, while deferring to the greater knowledge, maturity and context they've gained over the years?
Few authors expect the kind of success that J.K. Rowling has experienced, nor such a seismic shift in target market. However, there will be changes. As time goes by, new readers will find you, and they might come from places you wouldn't expect. The key is to stay engaged, stay alert, and be ready to respond to an emerging market you might have previously overlooked. And if you do find a new market, that's the time to review your marketing strategy in order to reach them.
Next week I'll be switching to more practical concerns: how to style your author name on the front cover.

Emma project goes back to step one
News | September 18, 2008
Aspen Times Staff Report
Aspen, CO Colorado
EMMA " A development proposal for a ranch in the Emma area moved back one square in Eagle County's review process this week.
The Eagle County Commissioners told the developer of Coleman Ranch his project must go back for review by the Roaring Fork Regional Planning Commission because of a major revision.
Dan Coleman's 24-acre property on the Eagle County-Pitkin County line. He initially sought approval for an eight lot subdivision. All the lots would have been developed in the Eagle County portion of the property and the remaining six acres in Pitkin County would have been open space.
The proposal faced stiff opposition from members of the Emma Caucus and other neighbors during a hearing in July. A revised plan was back before the Eagle County Commissioners on Tuesday. Coleman is now seeking approval for three lots rather than eight.
In addition to telling Coleman his plan must go back for review by the planning commission, he was strongly encouraged to meet again with neighbors in Eagle County to try to address their concerns, according to Commissioner Sara Fisher.
The proposal will go the planning commission at a meeting in El Jebel on Oct. 16, according to Bob Narracci of the Eagle County planning department.
