You can’t preach such amazingly inspiring ideas yet follow the exact same “paradigm of crappy web design”. My jingle.
Almost Genius.
Lucky they have an app for that.

“LeBron James asks for advice. In this spot, James seems to only stir up the antipathy that was directed toward him around his overly-publicized move to Miami. Doth he protest too much?”

Golden Parks and Recreation National Gold Medal Award Winner
The American Academy for Park and Recreation Administration (AAPRA), in partnership with the National Recreation and Park Association (NRPA), announced the City of Golden Parks and Recreation Department the Grand Plaque Recipient of the National Gold Medal Award for Excellence in Parks and Recreation Management. The award was announced live during NRPA’s Annual Congress and Exposition in Minneapolis, MN on Wednesday, Oct. 27. Golden was nominated as a finalist for the award for the second consecutive year.
The Gold Medal Award honors communities throughout the United States that demonstrate excellence in long-range planning, resource management, volunteerism, environmental stewardship, program development, professional development and agency recognition. Each agency is judged on its ability to address the needs of those it serves through the collective energies of citizens, staff and elected officials.
“The Golden Medal Award recognizes our department as one of the top four national leaders in the provision of high quality parks and recreation, the highest honor in the parks and recreation profession,” said Rod Tarullo, Director of Parks, Recreation and Golf.
A requirement for finalists, the Golden Parks and Recreation Department submitted a video demonstrating parks and recreation in Golden. View ”Golden in Golden.” Golden competed for the Gold Medal Award with three other finalists in population category 25,000 and below including the City of Green River Parks and Recreation Department, WY, the City of Fairfax, VA and the City of Cullman Parks and Recreation, AL.

I’ll take his word for it. Time to get pick up some new music.
Efficiency is free
I’m struck that we need a new book, call it Efficiency is Free.
It’s cheaper to build carpets that don’t create poison gas than it is to do the easy thing and let people suffer later. It’s cheaper to build an 8 passenger car that gets 30 miles per gallon than it is to suffer the consequences of the 12 mile per gallon Suburban. It’s cheaper to design smaller, lighter and recyclable shipping containers once than it is to buy and hassle with billions of foam peanuts in the long run.
So why doesn’t everyone do this? For the same reason the quality revolution took a full generation to take hold–it costs more right now. It takes planning right now. It requires change right now.
Right now will always be difficult. But efficiency is still free.

Hello Party People,
Less than a week before we all Matty boy turn into “old balls” in an evening not soon to be forgotten. Below I have listed the information straight from Senor Brian who we all owe big time for this generous gift to Matt. We will be flying on the world’s fastest civilian aircraft in the sky… a Citation X.
Plane departs 5:30pm out of landmark at San Diego airport. You should all be there by 5:00pm if possible, 5:15pm at the latest. They will wait for you, but don’t be late as it will screw up their flight plan.
The pilots should only need to see your ID.
There will be catering on the plane, along with booze, water, pop, etc. Help yourselves to anything on there – even the small booze bottles in the bar area. You will have to serve yourself during the flight. Trays flip up along the wall between the seats. Feel free to move around and do that as soon as the seatbelt lights are off. You can also talk to the pilots at anytime during the flight – feel free to ask them anything during the flight – just walk up there and ask.
There will be a limo at Boeing field to take all of you to the party right from the airport. There is a bathroom in the terminal if someone needs to change, etc.
As far as I know half of you are staying at Pete’s and the other half at Matt’s. So I have the limo stopping at Pete’s at 12:30pm on Sunday, then going to Matt’s then dropping you off at the airport.
Try not to trash the plane too much :-)
Pilots don’t take tips, but if you can tip the ground crew ($10.00+ a head or so – usually 2-3 of them helping with luggage, etc) on both ends it is a good thing.
Let me know if you have any questions.
