September 21, 2018 The Monocacy Monocle Page 3 Town Government Commissioners Approve Historic Plan To Upgrade and Improve Fisher Avenue 22611 Old Hundred Rd, Barnesville, MD By Link Hoewing In a unanimous vote (Commissioner Valaree Dickerson was absent), the Town of Poolesville commissioners approved a concept plan to remake the town’s main street, also known as Fisher Avenue, at their September 10 regular meeting. The plan, known as the Streetscape, was first conceptualized in the late 1990s as part of the master planning process. The town is required by state law to adopt a new master plan every six years, and many of the concepts in the just- approved Streetscape plan grew out of early ideas that were a part of the master planning process. In the mid-2000s, the Planning Commission put more “meat on the bones” of the Streetscape plan that was then released for public comment. In that plan were concepts that are in the proposal the commission has approved, including a roundabout, bump outs to slow traffic, and enhanced pedestrian crosswalks and sidewalks. Over the years since then, those ideas helped drive improvements in Fisher Avenue, including better pedestrian access. The Streetscape plan is built Wooded 35 +/- acs—Spectacular Farmhouse/Colonial around key concepts, including improving pedestrian access and safety, slowing and improving traffic flow, and beautifying Fisher Avenue. in Barnesville. 4 BR, 2.5 bath with spacious family The commissioners were quick to point out that the plan they adopted is not a room, owners' suite, sep office w/outside entrance, detailed engineering proposal but rather a concept plan, a guide improve and deck, barn, authentic cabin & stream on property enhance Fisher Avenue. It will take years for many of the plan’s concepts to become reality and, even then, it is likely that some details in the plan will Frank Jamison 240-388-0719 change, but the overall concepts are likely to remain in place and will serve as a 19939 Fisher Avenue guide for future town actions. One citizen’s comments at the town meeting suggested that the plan was Poolesville, MD 20837 aimed in part at “helping businesses” and said that this is not what the main Broker/Office-301-428-8200 objective should be for the town. In response, Town Commission President Jim Brown pointed out that safety in particular was a main concern and asked, “Is anyone here tonight satisfied with the crosswalks, for example, at McDonald’s?” No one raised his or her hands, and Brown said that he did not expect that anyone would. He reinforced the point that safety, increasing the attractiveness of the town’s main thoroughfare, and improved-but-slowed traffic flow were key goals of the plan. The cost of the plan was also raised by a citizen. Commissioner Jerry Klobukowski answered that the town has been very successful in attracting grants for its projects, and he did not expect that the full costs of the improve- ments would be borne by local taxpayers. He also reminded that the town has long saved for projects over a period of years and accumulated funds over time necessary for improvements and maintenance. He expected that would be the case with the Streetscape plan. Another criticism raised about the plan was the alleged lack of adequate notice to the public. Town Manager Wade Yost replied that the plan was first developed in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Many of the concepts in the current plan were included in those early plans, and Planning Commissions over the years have had numerous hearings and public sessions concerning the Streetscape vision; furthermore, several articles about the plan have been published in the Monocle in recent months. Before considering and approving the Streetscape plan, the commissioners heard from a candidate, Amie Hoeber, who is running for the District Six seat in Congress; Poolesville is in District Six. Mrs. Hoeber remarked that the district is very diverse, running from Deep Creek all the way to Potomac. She touted her long career as a defense official in government and as a security expert. She said she was committed to a campaign focused on the issues and civility in debating the issues. She pointed to the fact that she has already issued white papers or taken positions on issues she feels are important to District Six, including the opioid crisis, attracting small business investment, safety and security in schools, and transportation improvements. She specifically said she opposes a bridge across the Potomac in the Ag Reserve and did not expect that such a bridge would ever be approved in her lifetime.

  • Comprehension Builders Research Reveals That the Single Most Valuable Activity for Developing Students’ Com- Prehension Is Reading Itself
    Daily Comprehension Builders Research reveals that the single most valuable activity for developing students’ com- prehension is reading itself. At its core, comprehension is an active process in which students think about text and gain meaning from it. In order for them to build compe- tence in comprehension, their reading should be purposeful and reflective. It should foster the exploration of genre, language, and information. Daily Comprehension Build- ers is a resource that provides the instructional framework to help your students build strength in comprehension and achieve success in reading! Comprehension Basics Comprehension begins with what a student knows about a topic. It builds as a child reads and actively makes connections between new information and prior knowledge. Understanding is increased as the student organizes what he has read in relationship to what he already knows. To successfully comprehend, students need to master a variety of critical skills, such as constructing word meanings from context, determin- ing main ideas and locating details to support them, sequencing, inferring and drawing conclusions, making generalizations, predicting, summarizing, and sensing an author’s purpose. Daily Comprehension Builders provides multiple opportunities for reinforcing these essential skills, resulting in increased learning and competence in reading. About This Book Thirty-six high-interest reading selections, each accompanied by five activities and two to three reproducible skill sheets, are featured in this book. (See the unit features detailed below.) Each unit is clearly organized and highlights one of the following topics or genres: sports, famous people, animals, oddities, real-life mysteries, and adventure. Use each unit in its entirety, or pick and choose activities to build specific skills.

  • The Evolution of the Digital Political Advertising Network
    PLATFORMS AND OUTSIDERS IN PARTY NETWORKS: THE EVOLUTION OF THE DIGITAL POLITICAL ADVERTISING NETWORK Bridget Barrett A thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts at the Hussman School of Journalism and Media. Chapel Hill 2020 Approved by: Daniel Kreiss Adam Saffer Adam Sheingate © 2020 Bridget Barrett ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Bridget Barrett: Platforms and Outsiders in Party Networks: The Evolution of the Digital Political Advertising Network (Under the direction of Daniel Kreiss) Scholars seldom examine the companies that campaigns hire to run digital advertising. This thesis presents the first network analysis of relationships between federal political committees (n = 2,077) and the companies they hired for electoral digital political advertising services (n = 1,034) across 13 years (2003–2016) and three election cycles (2008, 2012, and 2016). The network expanded from 333 nodes in 2008 to 2,202 nodes in 2016. In 2012 and 2016, Facebook and Google had the highest normalized betweenness centrality (.34 and .27 in 2012 and .55 and .24 in 2016 respectively). Given their positions in the network, Facebook and Google should be considered consequential members of party networks. Of advertising agencies hired in the 2016 electoral cycle, 23% had no declared political specialization and were hired disproportionately by non-incumbents. The thesis argues their motivations may not be as well-aligned with party goals as those of established political professionals. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF TABLES AND FIGURES ....................................................................................................................
