Though many were designed to last only fifty to seventy-five years, a well-built concrete bridge should be able to last about a century. In Kansas, at least, it was often boasted that everything save the mortar was sourced locally when a stone bridge was built. Now, over a century later, it is still serving residents of southern Butler County, Kansas. Built with local material and local labor, this 1906 bridge cost $900 and took about six months to construct. The builder of this masterpiece was a resident of Butler County - Charles C. The Minos West Ford Bridge in Butler County, Kansas. Thus, a valuable aid to local transportation could be had while keeping most of the money required for such a project within the community. It was not uncommon for local residents of an area to be benefited by the bridge to “chip in” by contributing stone, or perhaps find some paying work by hauling stone or helping with the masonry. One major appeal with stone arch bridges was the fact that local resources went into the bridge, which was then built by local labor, as opposed to outsourcing all the labor and materials. For this reason, the community member often felt they had a certain stake in the bridge, and took pride in the structure their efforts helped build. Historically, stone arch bridges were often built by local builders using locally sourced stones, which are often readily available. The result is that every stone arch bridge has its own subtle differences, which give it its own unique appearance, quite different from the standardized form of concrete bridges. Furthermore, no two stone bridges are exactly alike, particularly those not built with stones cut to templates. Silliman/Badger Creek Bridge in Cowley County, Kansas, shows the simple beauty of a stone arch bridge, and how well such a structure blends into the landscape.Įven without embellishments, the natural, simple shape of a stone arch bridge makes it unquestionably a beautiful structure. The borrower and lender can jointly submit a review request to FEMA during the 45-day period after the borrower is notified that flood insurance is required.Īfter reviewing the required supporting technical documentation, within 45 days after receiving the completed package, FEMA will issue a written documentation, a LODR, indicating its concurrence or disagreement with the original determination made by the lender or third party, and stating whether the FIRM indicates that the subject building is in the SFHA. Where the FIRM is based on an aerial photograph and the building is clearly shown as outside the SFHA, this can be a relatively simple approach.ģ.) Letter of Determination Review (LODR)- This process is meant to be used to determine whether the FIRM was read correctly. A property owner may submit property and elevation materials to FEMA in support of a request for a LOMA. Often determinations are made by a computer so a manual determination may result in a different finding.Ģ.) Letter of Map Amendment- Out as Shown (LOMA- OAS) - Occasionally, a parcel or individual structure may be incorrectly determined to be located within the SFHA because of imprecise map delineations. If the lender’s decision is based on information from a flood zone determination company, the inquirer can ask the lender to request a manual determination. The community can help, by supplying a printout of the FIRM showing the building’s location. The community staff that provides the map information service should be familiar with the mandatory purchase requirements and the following processes available to property owners to resolve a flood zone dispute.ġ.) Talk to your lender- The first step should always be to talk to the lender and demonstrate that the building is not in the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA). The CRS encourages communities to help their residents. However, if there is a flood zone discrepancy among the parties involved, community officials often are contacted to provide assistance and documentation to clarify the flood zone for the building in question. Communities are not considered third-party vendors nor are they expected to assume the lender’s responsibility. Lenders are permitted to rely on third-party vendors for flood zone determinations provided that those vendors guarantee the accuracy of their determinations. Communities should be aware that the ultimate decision on whether flood insurance is required rests with the lender. Her motives were murky, her backstory non-existent, and her motivations unknown, spoiling any potential to even consider what she died for. Like many of the characters in Ahsoka, Morgan’s character arc was poorly contrived and painfully underdeveloped, which led to a rather anticlimactic death. With her ascension to even greater power at the top of Episode 8, a better storyline seemed finally achievable, but all of that was for naught. Instead, she was used as a means to an end - nothing more than a character to bridge the gap between Ahsoka and Thrawn, which still could’ve been achieved without her. After her introduction in The Mandalorian, it seemed as though Morgan Elsbeth was being established as a new big-bad for Ahsoka to contend with. Together, Ahsoka and Sabine take down the Night Troopers and-quite shockingly-Morgan Elsbeth too. In an eleventh-hour decision, Sabine decides stay back to help Ahsoka - an action that an apprentice would surely do for their master, and proving that she’s not solely in it for Ezra and Ezra alone. But, before Sabine can join him on Thrawn’s ship, Ahsoka mounts the stairs with a legion of undead Night Troopers and Morgan Elsbeth on her tail. Ezra jumps first, trusting that Sabine will be able to tap into the Force to help give him an extra push. With Thrawn’s vessel pulling away from the tower, Sabine and Ezra concoct a plan to use the Force to leap across the ever-growing chasm between them and the Chimaera. Like Ahsoka, Sabine and Ezra run into a spot of trouble with a pair of super-strong undead troopers, but with a move straight out of The Last Jedi, Sabine manages to take out one of them to stop Ezra from meeting a premature end. With her new Dathomirian abilities, Morgan seems like a far more impressive foe for Ahsoka to face off against. Ahsoka urges Ezra and Sabine to split off and stop Thrawn, leaving her to her rematch with Morgan. The trio make their way further up the tower, but they run into Morgan who is ready to do what she must to stop them. When the air strike fails to work, he sends out the Night Troopers to do his dirty work - with a little assistance from the Great Sisters, who take control of their corpses and create a troop of seemingly indestructible enemies. Thrawn intends to rain hellfire down upon them, as he has no interest in negotiating with Anakin Skywalker's apprentice, but he seems to underestimate just how talented the trio is with lightsabers. With their ship out of commission, Ahsoka, Ezra, and Sabine decide to take a pair of Howlers straight to Thrawn’s front door. Unfortunately, this causes her to crash the ship and delay their plans even further. Thinking fast, Sabine boosts the ship and uses it to fly straight into the TIE Fighters to take them out. After providing Morgan with so little to do throughout the season, outside monosyllabic dialogue and exposition, it seems as though Dave Filoni might finally be setting her on an interesting story arc, but all is not as it seems.īefore Ezra can intrude on the moment, a pair of TIE Fighters swoop in to deliver some pretty serious damage on Ahsoka’s ship. Meanwhile, with impending victory looming over them, The Great Sisters welcome Morgan Elsbeth ( Diana Lee Inosanto) into the fold, transforming her appearance to look just as they do and gifting her with the blade of Talzin. Episode 8 picks up right on the heels of that, with Thrawn whinging over the fact that Jedi - albeit a former Jedi and her two would-be Jedi sidekicks - are posed to get in the way of his plans yet again. In the penultimate episode, “Dreams and Madness,” Thrawn ( Lars Mikkelsen) inched closer to fulfilling his Machiavellian plans with a clever ploy to keep Ahsoka ( Rosario Dawson) out of his way while they finished preparing for their impending departure. Editor's note: The below contains spoilers for Episode 8 of Ahsoka.Īhsoka Season 1 has finally come to a close with Episode 8, entitled “The Jedi, The Witch, and the Warlord” (not to be confused with The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe). The choices you make here and now are forever important. Please be strong, and be alert to anything that would rob you of the blessings of eternity. You may be tempted to lower your standards and to follow the crowd in order to be accepted by those you desire to have as friends. Teenage years are often years of insecurity, of feeling as though you don’t measure up, of trying to find your place with your peers, and of trying to fit in. The Apostle Peter warns us, “Be vigilant because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.” 3Īlthough there is no time in our lives when we are exempt from temptation, you young men are at an age when you may be particularly vulnerable. They represent a grave and constant threat to our eternal salvation unless we are also relentless in our determination and efforts to achieve our goal. He and his hosts are relentless in their efforts to thwart our righteous desires. We know, however, that the adversary is committed to our failure. It is imperative, therefore, for us to make choices throughout our lives that will lead us to this great goal. I am confident that each of us has as his ultimate goal life everlasting in the presence of our Heavenly Father and His Son, Jesus Christ. Our decisions in this regard will determine our destiny. But while He gives us laws and commandments, He also allows us to choose whether to accept them or to reject them. Our challenges and problems will be easier to bear, and we will receive His promised blessings. He understands that when we keep the commandments, our lives will be happier, more fulfilling, and less complicated. Our Heavenly Father loves us enough to say: Thou shalt not lie thou shalt not steal thou shalt not commit adultery thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself and so on. We remember the words of the familiar hymn: “Keep the commandments! In this there is safety in this there is peace.” 1 He has provided us with guidelines which, if we follow them, will see us safely through this often treacherous mortal journey. He who created us and who loves us perfectly knows just how we need to live our lives in order to obtain the greatest happiness possible. God’s commandments are not given to frustrate us or to become obstacles to our happiness. My message to you tonight is straightforward. I pray that I too will be guided in what I say. We have been inspired this evening by the words which we have heard. 2:8 Heb.My beloved brethren, how good it is to be with you once again.
