Rutkowski moving on
When Ed Rutkowski and his wife moved to the Patterson Park area on the city's east side in 1986, it was the sort of place, he said, where everything was in good shape and neighbors pitched in to keep it that way.
But over the next decade, the region slid headfirst into decline. Drug dealers set up shop in its 140-acre park. Prostitutes worked the corners, and Rutkowski's neighbors - the same ones he saw at community Christmas parties - abandoned Baltimore in droves.
Rutkowski, however, got to work. He founded the Patterson Park Community Development Corp., which many now credit for the area's healthy turnaround. And now, after 11 years at its helm, Rutkowski is moving on.

Chelsea Flower Show 2008: Grand plans
Home for Lady Lennox-Boyd, the wife of Sir Mark Lennox-Boyd, former Parliamentary Private Secretary to Margaret Thatcher, is Gresgarth Hall, Caton, a Victorian house in Sir Mark's old Lancashire constituency. And here, looking across acres of richly planted terraces, borders, walled garden, meadow, bog and woodland, framed by a lake, steep hillsides and a fast-flowing river, no-one can be left in any doubt about her appetite for her subject. It is the red-blooded passion of an Italian, for Arabella Lennox-Boyd, née Parisi, was born and brought up in Rome. She says it was the Apennine Mountains and their wildflowers that were her early love. .
A Neolib New Deal?:
Omigod, not the Web site! Will Saletan argues the fuss over Lieberman's downed Web site shows the Internet has "arrived" as a force in politics: ... [I]n the election's final hours, the Lieberman campaign treated the crash of its Web site as fatal sabotage, and the media and law enforcement took the charge seriously. Losing your Web site on Election Day is now regarded as the equivalent of having your phones jammed or your TV ads rejected by stations. Even for campaigns that don't use it well, the Web has become not just an asset, but a necessity. Hmmm. Here's an alternative theory: Lieberman "treated the crash of its Web site as fatal sabotage" because that was a great anti-Lamont story for him to have in the headlines during the last 24 hours of the campaign! I doubt the Web site was particularly vital to the incumbent senator's old-fashioned campaign.
