Edson and E. Urner Goodman (below) founded the Order of the Arrow at Treasure Island Scout Camp in Pennsylvania in 1915. Goodman stated that the cheerful service of Billy Clark led him create the Order of the Arrow. Billy was helping in the medical tent at camp. As he carried the bed pans full of human waste, he fell and the bed pans emptied on him. Demonstrating a cheerful spirit, Billy started laughing at his predicament. Goodman knew that Scouts who equally demonstrated the Scouting Spirit should be recognized. It was originally called Wimachtendienk or Brotherhood. According to Ken Davis’s Brotherhood of Cheerful Service: A History of the Order of the Arrow, the Order’s ceremonies and rituals were influenced by Chris- tian beliefs, college fraternities, the Lennie Lenape tribe, and freemasonry. From 1915 to 1934, the Order was recognized as an experimental program by the Boy Scouts of America. The National Council adopted the Order as an offi- cial part of the BSA program in 1934.

Zimmer: Is 1 unit per 2 acres a by-right density? Newman: In A-1 you have to have at least two acres per dwelling unit Eager: And that’s with road frontage on a state road? Newman: Yes. Payne: The density is one unit per two acres even though the lot size may be different. The difference is, where I live in Two Rivers the density is less than one unit per two acres even though the lots are about ¾ of an acre, because it’s a cluster subdivision. For the one that was just shown the lot size is two acres and the density is two acres. But you could have it be a quarter of that and still have the rest as an open space and still be at a density of two acres even though the lot sizes are small.

    Iceland and the Crisis: Territory, Europe, Identity

    Revista Română de Geografie Politică Year XIII, no. 1, May 2011, pp. 5-15 ISSN 1454-2749, E-ISSN 2065-1619 Article no. 131101-216 ICELAND AND THE CRISIS: TERRITORY, EUROPE, IDENTITY Luca ZARRILLI* University “G. D’Annunzio” of Chieti-Pescara, Italy. Department of Economics and History of the Territory, e-mail: [email protected] Abstract: The growing phase of Iceland’s economy, which began after World War II, was brusquely interrupted in October 2008, when the country was brought to the verge of bankruptcy and Icelanders were catapulted in the so- called kreppa: the very serious financial and social crisis with which Icelanders will have to deal in the years to come. The financial crisis, actually, has been producing, in the last two-year period, significant consequences also in terms of domestic politics, international relations (with special regard to an entry in the EU backed by the new government), cultural debate and even national identity, in addition to the highly evident economic effects. An exploitation of the advanced skills that Iceland has achieved in areas related to the analysis and the governance of the territory could be the response to the crisis from the points of view of environmental sustainability and business diversification. Additionally, it could represent a reaffirmation – as well as a redefinition – of a cultural identity. Key words: Iceland, crisis, EU, territory, identity ****** Iceland between reality and stereotype – In the collective imagery, Iceland distinguishes itself because of its geological and natural features, according to a stereotyped vision of this land (a land characterised by “ice and fire”, “the wild” and “the extreme”).

    The Music Column That Wouldn't Die: New Album Reviews

    The Music Column That Wouldn’t Die: New Album Reviews. I told myself I was over this, that I had retired from the world of music reviews. I had moved onto bigger and better things (mostly staring at the wall and wondering why nobody calls me anymore). Yet here I am, a mere few months after burning my bridges, giving up on new music and making a world of enemies, back in the game. Did I miss the constant abuse, the being paid in soiled pennies and the lack of recognition which writing this unremembered column entailed? Funnily enough, I did! It was listening to the post punk genius of the new Dry Cleaning record that did it. I thought to myself ‘someone has to take it upon themselves to tell the world just how good this album is’. After a moment of quiet reflection where I drank a glass of lukewarm Ribena to calm the nerves, I decided that that person may as well be me. By JOHN BITTLES So, here we are. Bittles’ Magazine, like some particularly bothersome zombie with a bad haircut and worse breath, has been reborn. And what a re-introduction we have! In this month’s reviews there is the art heavy punk funk strut of Squid, the melancholy dream pop of White Flowers, Thomas Fehlmann’s rich ambiance, the return of living legends The Coral, the skewed pop of Dntel, and Dry Cleaning of course. So, tell all your friends, phone the tabloids, and let us begin… New Long Leg by Dry Cleaning.

    L'italia E L'eurovision Song Contest Un Rinnovato

    La musica unisce l'Europa… e non solo C'è chi la definisce "La Champions League" della musica e in fondo non sbaglia. L'Eurovision è una grande festa, ma soprattutto è un concorso in cui i Paesi d'Europa si sfidano a colpi di note. Tecnicamente, è un concorso fra televisioni, visto che ad organizzarlo è l'EBU (European Broadcasting Union), l'ente che riunisce le tv pubbliche d'Europa e del bacino del Mediterraneo. Noi italiani l'abbiamo a lungo chiamato Eurofestival, i francesi sciovinisti lo chiamano Concours Eurovision de la Chanson, l'abbreviazione per tutti è Eurovision. Oggi più che mai una rassegna globale, che vede protagonisti nel 2016 43 paesi: 42 aderenti all'ente organizzatore più l'Australia, che dell'EBU è solo membro associato, essendo fuori dall'area (l’anno scorso fu invitata dall’EBU per festeggiare i 60 anni del concorso per via dei grandi ascolti che la rassegna fa in quel paese e che quest’anno è stata nuovamente invitata dall’organizzazione). L'ideatore della rassegna fu un italiano: Sergio Pugliese, nel 1956 direttore della RAI, che ispirandosi a Sanremo volle creare una rassegna musicale europea. La propose a Marcel Bezençon, il franco-svizzero allora direttore generale del neonato consorzio eurovisione, che mise il sigillo sull'idea: ecco così nascere un concorso di musica con lo scopo nobile di promuovere la collaborazione e l'amicizia tra i popoli europei, la ricostituzione di un continente dilaniato dalla guerra attraverso lo spettacolo e la tv. E oltre a questo, molto più prosaicamente, anche sperimentare una diretta in simultanea in più Paesi e promuovere il mezzo televisivo nel vecchio continente.
