We have already seen that the vision Master Plan was completed and adopted by the contained in these two companion documents is serving as a catalyst for positive City of Alexandria and Arlington County. Now change in the neighborhoods and commercial areas along this shared border. I pledge this companion document, the Four Mile Run to continue to work closely with Arlington and Alexandria to bring to bear the Design Guidelines, is finished and ready to serve necessary federal resources that will be required to fulfill the vision found in these as a guide to move the Master Plan to reality. pages, knowing that it will also take continued commitment and resources from both of These guidelines provide a specific design these communities and the private sector to see it to fruition. I remain convinced that language for the physical manifestation of the together, with all parties willingly working toward a common goal, we can ensure that FOREWORD ecological and urban design elements previously Four Mile Run will have a very bright future, indeed. recommended in the Master Plan. The Master Plan envisioned a new and bright future for the blighted waterway, which now houses the infrastructure backbone upon which Congressman James P. Moran urban life in these two communities depends. The channel, designed with the single purpose of carrying flood waters away as quickly Eighth Congressional District as possible, is framed by a wastewater treatment plant, a large power substation, and Virginia transit facilities, while high voltage transmission lines soar above it all. The waters are not clean enough to sustain native aquatic fauna and flora. While the Master Plan addressed these infrastructure challenges generally, these guidelines more specifically address the character of our urban infrastructure, which is embraced as a positive attribute and influence in the urban design aspects of this restoration project. In these pages, the power lines, rusted sheet metal, large pieces of concrete, and rocks become the foundation for a design language that imagines a vibrant future for this corridor and seamlessly knits together new and existing elements. The use of these unique elements grounds future projects in this language of urban infrastructure and creates a place—and a distinct sense of place—that acknowledges the full range of challenges of a modern, urban existence…life in the city. At the same time, these design guidelines further define and reinforce the principles of sustainable design articulated in the original Master Plan. The design direction developed in this document embodies ecological principles throughout all aspects of the stream restoration: trails and paths, public art, landscape design and the hardscape of the more urban aspects envisioned along this greenway. And it is here that we begin to see how public art can and should be seamlessly infused as an integral part of this restoration, so that it will become a highlight of this restored stream valley. Like the visionary Master Plan, the development of the Design Guidelines is the result of an unprecedented collaboration between the two municipalities straddling Four Mile Run, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the Northern Virginia Regional Commission FOREWORD iv I ntroduction The Four Mile Run Restoration Master Plan (March 2006) established a broad vision to fulfill the great potential of the Four Mile Run stream corridor. Among its many recommendations, the Master Plan identified a number of design principles to guide future improvements within and adjacent to the stream corridor. These principles are organized under three central themes: (1) green design principles, (2) a vibrant public 1 realm, and (3) a built environment that acknowledges and respects the stream and INTRODU contributes positively to the public realm. This document supplements the Master Plan, by adding greater clarity and specificity to its overarching ideas and further establishes a visual and physical character for future improvements to the Four Mile Run stream corridor. The magnitude of the recommendations in the Master Plan suggest that the improvements will likely be initiated over a long period of time and be completed in separate, phased segments. Many agencies, owners, and developers will need to collaborate with planners, architects, landscape architects, engineers, designers and artists to make the Master Plan vision a reality. The publication of the Design Guidelines establishes a clear design framework that C future collaborative teams may use as a basis for their work. The intent is not to restrict T creativity or limit the possibilities of future design efforts, rather to build a strong framework within which ideas can be applied. At the broadest level, these guidelines ION provide a design language based on commonalities among materials and forms that are coordinated to create visual cohesiveness and compatibility. At their most specific, the guidelines establish performance criteria and design requirements for selected elements within the corridor. Portions of the guidelines are intentionally left open to allow for maximum creativity. T he publication of the Design Guidelines establishes a clear design framework that future collaborative teams may use as a basis for their work. The intent is not to restrict creativity or limit the possibilities of future design efforts, but rather to build a strong framework within which ideas can be applied.

ABSTRACT Comic books are beginning to be recognized for their impact on society because they inform, channel, and critique cultural norms. This thesis investigates how comic books interact and forward postfeminism. Specifically, this thesis explores the ways postfeminism interjects itself into female superhero team comic books. These comics, with their rosters of only women, provide unique perspectives on how women are represented in comic books. Additionally, the comics give insight into how women bond with one another in a popular culture text. The comics critiqued herein focus on transferring postfeminist ideals in a team format to readers, where the possibilities for representing powerful connections between women are lost. Postfeminist characteristics of consumption, sexual freedom, and sexual objectification are forwarded in the comic books, while also promoting aspects of racism.

WITH DESCRIPTIONS OF NEW SPECIES AND VARIETIES BY EDWARD L. GREENE, ALVAH A. EATON, AND THE AUTHOR. The following list is based upon a course of collecting prose cuted outside of my routine work for five years beginning with 1896. The general purpose has been merely to record names of new and less familiar plants, with stations; but advantage has been taken of the opportunity to publish a few descriptions of new local material and to record some observations. Professor Greene has kindly furnished for publication here a name and character for a new violet which I was so fortunate as to discover. Mr. Alvah A. Eaton describes two new forms of Isoetes, which are not, however, my own discoveries. I propose a segregate from the Lycopus virginicus of authors, a well-marked species long since noticed, but apparently never properly named. In an extended note on Vernonia glauca I hope to have set that species in a somewhat clearer light. Other notes are scattered through the list. I am indebted to several gentlemen for the revision of my determinations, particularly to Mr. L. H. Dewey, who studied all my earlier collections of grasses. The dichotomous Pani- JO BIOL. Soc. WASH.

  • Belle Haven, Dogue Creek and Four Mile Run Watersheds Was Developed with the Assistance and Input of the Watershed Advisory Group (WAG)
    4 Watershed Restoration Strategies 4.1 Subwatershed Strategies The watershed restoration process follows the assessment of subwatershed conditions summarized in the preceding section. It involves two elements: first, to determine where in the watershed to prioritize restoration efforts, and second, to identify specific practices and locations where improvements can be made. The purpose of prioritizing was to focus limited resources in the most effective way, as there were some geographic areas within the watershed where the same improvement can have a greater impact than in others. Once prioritization was complete, specific restoration sites were identified at a subwatershed scale. These results are described in Section 5. This section provides an overview of the approach and practices considered. The overall strategy for restoring the Belle Haven, Dogue Creek and Four Mile Run watersheds was developed with the assistance and input of the Watershed Advisory Group (WAG). The group suggested focusing project recommendations to identify impaired headwater areas and concentrate restoration efforts in these subwatersheds. These improvements will reduce the stress and subsequent damage to downstream channels. This strategy recognized that improvements in headwater areas have the potential to reduce stressors downstream and to improve conditions throughout the stream network. Projects were given a higher priority if they were on publicly maintained land or in areas where project costs could be shared with developers. The full Technical Memorandum detailing the subwatershed strategy process can be found in Appendix B. Figure 4-1 visually depicts subwatershed prioritization for project selection. Headwater subwatersheds, shown in grey, are subwatersheds where a stream begins, either for the main channel, a tributary, or a small branch draining to a main channel or tributary.
