Annotated Webliography Of Downtown Revitalization An annotated collection of resources including urban renewal, historic preservation, land use regulations and urban zoning sites of use to planners, architects, and concerned citizens. http://www2.hawaii.edu/~kleban/Revitalization.htm
Extractions: AN ANNOTATED WEBLIOGRAPHY OF DOWNTOWN REVITALIZATION RESOURCES This collection was compiled for urban planners, landscape architects, architects, city management officials, and concerned citizens involved in revitalizing the inner core of a town or city. Revitalization of a downtown becomes necessary when businesses choose to locate in newer shopping malls or industrial zones rather than building or remodeling in the older downtown area. There are many issues involved in urban renewal. An important one is the land use regulations permitting business use exclusively in central city districts, so that people are no longer allowed to live above or in back of retail shops and offices. This webliography focuses on the re-introduction of mixed use zoning in urban centers, the historic preservation of architecturally and culturally important buildings, and the replacement of overly restrictive and unnecessarily proscriptive building codes with performance-oriented codes that allow compliance alternatives. Sources are also included providing essays and bibliographies on the history of zoning regulations, the traditional design of cities, the future of the city, the contributions of Jane Jacobs, author of

Three weeks after the Gulf Coast was pummeled by Hurricane Katrina, Army emergency responders are preparing for the possibility of a second round of severe weather there from Hurricane Rita. The National Hurricane Center reported that as of 8 a.m. Wednesday, Hurricane Rita had intensified to a category 4 hurricane, with sustained winds of 135 mph. It was about 200 miles west of Key West, Fla., moving westward at 14 mph. More The heartfelt oath of never leaving a fallen comrade is one that the Army takes seriously, said Army Vice Chief of Staff Gen. Richard Cody. As anyone who has fought side by side with a buddy and gone through the crucible of combat knows, he said, that is a promise emblazoned on the heart of a warrior that will never be broken. Beginning in December, the Army will put additional focus on the mission by implementing a Personnel Recovery Training Program into every aspect of Army training.

Keyboarding Research And Resources A collection of research and resources about when and how to teach keyboarding. Dr. Leigh Zeitz also makes a few comments on the subject. http://ci.coe.uni.edu/facstaff/zeitz/web/general/keyboardingresearch.html
Extractions: University of Northern Iowa I have always had an interest in keyboarding. It is the primary form of input for computer today and it is still chiefly taught at the high school level. What about the students in the earlier 8 grades? What should they do while they are waiting to go to high school where they can learn how to type? Would you believe that there are actually courses at the secondary level entitled "Keyboarding 2"? How long does it take to learn to type? Typing is important and everyone should be able to type at least 40 words a minute. This sort of speed allows the user to flow with a train of thought as it comes. It doesn't mean that 40 wpm will be attained in typing class, but if students are given a solid foundation in keyboarding, their speed will develop as they keyboard their ways through life. Does this mean that 8 year olds should type at 40 wpm? No. They should be provided with the basics of keyboarding and then learn to type faster than they can write (typically 11 wpm). This will allow them to have an efficient way to enter their thoughts and writings into a dynamic electronic format. Editing and revising are necessary for improving writing and are much easier to do in a word processor than on paper. You will find a number of articles below that can provide you with background research for making your own curricular decisions. I have also included software reviews, downloadable free/shareware software (remember that you usually pay what it's worth), and recommendations for the keyboarding hardware. This is not an exhaustive list of research and resources. PLEASE contact me with your suggestions and/or experiences concerning keyboarding.
