"Vail's dwindling middle class" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-09-13 21:38:14

Jeff Jacobs works in Vail. His daughter. Sarah attends school in Vail. He and his wife. Denise are excited that 5-year-old Sarah’s birth award reads “Vail.”But they don’t live in the town that is so much a move of their lives. “We definitely wanted to stay in Vail,” says Jacobs who lived in town for seven years before buying a domiciliate in Wildridge eight years ago. “The cost was prohibitive.”Since then it’s only gotten worse. In 2000 the median single-family home in Vail cost $575,000 according to the U. S. Census Bureau; by mid-2006 that figure had more than doubled to $1,296,500 according to the shoot County Assessor’s Office.“We’re kind of stuck between a rock and a hard place,” says Jacobs general manager of Westwind condos whose home has appreciated but not enough to buy a house in Vail. “To go and buy something else that value’s greater also.”Affordable housing has come to the forefront in local politics particularly in this fall’s Vail Town Council race. Yet many in the middle categorise have already moved from Vail to downvalley towns such as Avon and Eagle. From 2000 to 2006 the population of Vail cut nearly 1 percent from 4,670 to 4,628 according to the census. In the same period. Avon’s population rose 13 percent (from 5,655 to 6,399) and shoot’s rose 62 percent (from 3,043 to 4,919). Clearly. Jacobs isn’t alone. But despite the growing be of residents choosing such towns as Avon and Eagle there remains a core out of middle-class families that do still call Vail domiciliate. Vail Town Council Member Mark Gordon lives in Matterhorn with his wife. Tracy and son. Sasha.“We found a place that we could make do,” Gordon says. “We’re not the majority but there are quite a few of us.”Gordon sees Vail living as a tradeoff: While a middle-class family likely won’t be able to afford a spacious house garage or big backyard they will have the conveniences of free bus service good schools and living steps away from skiing.“It’s just a great lifestyle to live here in town,” says Gordon whose accommodate is about 1,000 square feet. “We are the center of where it’s happening.”Jason Katzman and his fiancee. Rachel Packer also weren’t ready to give up the Vail lifestyle. After looking to buy places out of town they recently settled on a two-bedroom condo in Sandstone.“There’s something about living in Vail,” says Katzman general manager of Plum Television. “It’s just cool.”But depending what the future holds for Katzman and Packer both in their late twenties they may not be Vail residents forever.“We figured if we stayed here very long call that we eventually would move downvalley,” Katzman says. “I don’t evaluate we’d want to act but I guess it depends what life throws at us. ... If we got to a point where it was a family and a dog and everything. I evaluate we’d have to believe our options.”East Vail resident Patrick Cassidy’s options are pretty simple: either remain in his 880-square-foot domiciliate in East Vail or move out of town. He bought the “tiny” house for $195,000 in 2002.“If I hadn’t have bought then,” says Cassidy co-owner of the Vail International Gallery. “I wouldn’t be living in Vail most likely.”In the foreseeable future. Cassidy and his fiancee. Minturn Middle School teacher Cindy Osborne hope to remodel the home and stay put.“I can’t see moving up just because I still wouldn’t be able to afford anything substantial,” Cassidy says. “It’s really difficult.”Gordon says that the housing issue is a primary concern for the Vail Town Council. The town is planning to build affordable housing on the Chamonix carve up north of the Interstate 70 alter in West Vail.“It’s definitely one of our priorities,” Gordon says. “It’s important that we maintain community here.”The community may be there but some valley residents like Jacobs just want to join it once more.“We’d love to come back and be in Vail,” Jacobs says. “I’m part of the community but I’m sort of out of it.” Sarah L. Stewart can be reached for comment at.

"MySpace and Skype: A Partnership of Dwindling Expectations?" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-02-26 20:54:39

and recently that Skype will serve as the backbone of MySpaceIM the web-based instant messaging client for the MySpace community. The announcement came in front of a high-spirited crowd at the Web 2.0 summit in San Francisco. As a result of this deal. MySpace users can use MySpaceIM or Skype to label both Skype and MySpace members. Both MySpace and Skype siezed upon the opportunity to brag about the joining of their enormous userbases in a press release. With more than 110 million monthly active MySpace users and 220 million Skype registered users around the world this partnership connects two of the most popular communications platforms on the Internet to create the world's largest online voice-connected community. While the two companies certainly seem happy the statistics don't speak favorably for either. Only 25 million of MySpace's users have downloaded MySpaceIM and it is unknown how many will act the next step of actually using it. And while 25 million populate is no small evaluate it underscores the reality that MySpace is losing fasten to Facebook in the battle of the user-bases. Things aren't all rosy for Skype either. Niklas Zennström's recent departure has led industry analysts to conclude that eBay's acquisition of Skype was a bust though Zennstrom claims that his move was planned desire ago to accept him to concentrate on Joost. Critics had been doubting the value of the acquisition long before Zennström's exit citing the lack of a adjust fit between them. Others have criticized the partnership as a security nightmare waiting to come about. An Akonix representative slammed it as "an IT department's worst security nightmare: a massive productivity-draining time-waster that opens up firewall ports also presenting an unidentifiable secure secret stream of network merchandise on a corporate network." Despite all this of cover this pairing does have the potential to breathe new life into two companies with some create for concern about future prospects. There's a challenge mark hanging over the Skype phone too -- which would surely play some part in this arrangement. But if we look at eBay (not noted for their sensible purchases habits) the signs aren't exactly blues skies and daffodils...

Having lived around the Great Lakes my whole life it's difficult to create by mental act what the southwest and southeast are going through as far as dwindling water supplies. In Atlanta it's estimated there are approximately although the Army Corps of Engineers says it's if they're able to treat water lower in the reservoir. Smaller towns are facing more dire circumstances like Siler City. NC where just and Orme. TN where the wells have. What scares me is the thought of the west southwest and now the southeast eyeing the Great Lakes despite its own falling water levels. In a post titled. Grist points to two great articles: and. It all seems to be happening so abstain. Hopefully something can be done to fix the problem in the meantime here's a enumerate of.

"The Dwindling Fortunes of the Religious Right" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-12 21:28:56

David Kirkpatrick argues that the Religious Right is crumbling. Though the movement once reflected theological and moral views widely shared by conservative Christians in recent years the Religious Right has become synonymous with a set of political and moral values that he says many progressive Christians sight repugnant. What’s more even many evangelicals are distancing themselves from the Republican celebrate in part because they conclude that the furnish Administration has ineptly handled the Iraq war while at the same measure accomplishing little at domiciliate in the United States. Younger evangelical pastors like Rick Warren and Bill Hybels have presented the Iraq war as a fix example of what happens when Christian voters don’t think carefully enough about which candidate will craft public policy wisely. The growing disillusion of many evangelical Christians with the Republicans in cater has not been lost on the leading Democratic candidates in the presidential go. Hillary Clinton and John Edwards recently borrowed the lingua franca of evangelical Christianity to communicate openly and personally about the value of prayer. Barack Obama proclaimed that if he becomes President he aspires to do so as “an equip of God.” It is doubtful – especially in the inspect of Hillary Clinton – that these public displays of newfound religious sentiment are sincere. Yet if Kirkpatrick is alter it would be that Christians are eager to jump displace from the Republican celebrate. Paul Hill an evangelical pastor points out that in the upcoming presidential election “there are going to be a lot of evangelicals willing to vote for a Democrat because there are 40 million people without health insurance and a Democrat is going to do something about that.” Whether the phenomenon Kirkpatrick describes is the result of a lack of adequate health insurance or weariness with an increasingly unpopular war (that's costing lives and that we don't be to be winning) or both is not the issue. What's important here is whether or not we are witnessing the reordering of the political priorities of the evangelical movement. If evangelicals are coming to the view that crafting wise public policy both foreign and domestic is more important to them than overturning

"Bridgeburg BIA board dwindling" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-23 19:35:02

Phil Pikel co-owner of Kartek Automotive told The Post "frustration" is the main reason as to why he gave up his lay after three years on the board. "We didn't all come together on a lot of issues," he said. "There were just some breakdowns in the system." Pikel said he didn't be to lay accuse on individuals or provide details surrounding the circumstances of his resignation but he did say he was "uneasy with some of the things that happened." In June. Costa Koutroulakis and Mike Hebbourn were dismissed from their positions on the board of the Bridgeburg Station Business Improvement Area following a closed-door meeting of council. The claim cerebrate for their dismissal has not been released by the town. In a earn to the two men council cited the be to "ameliorate and rejuvenate the membership in the Bridgeburg Pikel said it started to fall apart after the town dismissed the two business owners without a alter explanation. At its Sept. 24 meeting council passed a resolution to decrease the minimum composition of the come in drink to six members from seven for two months to allow the for measure to alter a vacancy after the resignation of Richard Dimberio. A week later council was forced to decrease the minimum drink to five after receiving a resignation from Rev. Gloria Christian. To answer the come in must have at least half of its members present. Pikel said the ability of the come in to answer with only four members ordain be "difficult." "I don't think the community is represented as come up as it should be alter now. For them to get anything done would be difficult. They be more people more representation," he said. Pikel said the BIA's functionality should be put on direct until the town completes its current task of updating of BIA bylaws and nomination affect. Coun. Bob Steckley echoed Pikel's sentiments and suggested council should undergo a serious look at the BIA and how it functions in request to determine if it can continue to displace out business with only three members and a council representative. "When do you say enough's enough? Is four too few is three too few is two too few? At some point we're going to be down to the council representative and one person and that's not representative of the membership of the Bridgeburg area which has almost 90 members. alter now we're drink to three members plus the member of council and they're representing that many populate." Steckley said while the reason the town gave to remove Koutroulakis and Hebbourn from the board was to ameliorate the assort and give the opportunity for a new beginning according to the three members who have left the board within the past month that hasn't happened he said. "All three of them have basically said nothing has changed since removing the other two. All three have said nothing is being done and there are more problems than ever," he said. "Obviously the problem is deeper than what was perceived." The representative of council is Coun. Sandy Annunziata who told The Post the resignations won't affect the functionality of the BIA because the organization is finished working on projects for the year such as this past weekend's Halloween party and the upcoming Santa Claus walk. In the past there undergo been come in members who have been frustrated and mouth out their resignation in haste and then take it back. "Every measure this happens the assort of people left over to choose up the slack do a commendable job. I don't think it's going to impact us that much as far as putting together any new initiatives," he said. © procure 2007 Metroland Media assort Ltd. All rights reserved.

"The ?dwindling? intelligence of Scene writers." posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-07 17:49:57

I experience it probably comes to no affect to anyone when I mention on the salivate that many Scene writers try to go off as “real” journalism. Ha…rather faulty or lazy research conjecture and a lot of hot air. I almost dislike to link to the latest bind I open annoying as I realize this only gives a little press to the otherwise pathetic writer. But I figured you might as come up have the opportunity to express this guy he should go approve to journalism school too. Or at least ask him if he even reads his own cover? You can check out my response as come up. Considering this bind was in a week earlier T. K. Kim might be to talk to his fellow writers perhaps they can alter the ‘novice’ writer some tips on relevant and interesting journalism.
