Grand green vision for S.F.'s Parkmerced
The owners of San Francisco's Parkmerced want to add nearly 5,700 homes to the World War II-era rental housing complex, an ambitious renovation that could rank as one of the greenest in the country. Over 20 years, the developer says, the minimum $1.2 billion project would take the 115-acre property off the power grid by employing wind turbines and other low-emission energy sources, slash water consumption through improved plumbing and recycling, and halve tenants' automobile use by, among other things, adding public transportation options. "I almost consider it a moral obligation in a project of this size to be responsible and do whatever we can do to help confront the problem of climate change," said Craig Hartman, lead architect on the project and partner with Skidmore, Owings & Merrill LLP.
Why the majority see the police as their enemy
They were Jack Warner in The Blue Lamp, a film to which my response remains something that I feel defines me as an Englishman. When poor old Jack stops a bullet from Dirk Bogarde, I (like all right-thinking people) long for the moment, after the film, when Dirk will be at the end of a rope. .

New philosophies may help USC
That's a huge drawback for a team making 71.6 percent of its shots, which is in the top quarter of the NCAA. The makeup of the Gamecocks' roster isn't conducive to getting to the line. Downey (5-foot-9) and Fredrick (6-foot) rely on jump shots, and the inside players are hardly an offensive threat. The 6-7 Archie is playing better but still is banging against bigger players.
