  3. Margaret M. Moses 10/05/1913 - 03/18/2013

    Rose Margaret McBride was born in Grand Junction, Colorado, the second of three daughters of father James Guyn McBride and mother Ruth Burnham McBride. Though her given name was Rose, she was always called Margaret, as her Aunt Rose McBride, her namesake, was very much a part of the family. Margaret grew up on the high desert in eastern Utah, where her father was the proprietor of the Cisco Mercantile Company. He ran the General Store and managed the stock scales in Cisco, Utah, a stop on the Denver and Rio Grande railroad. Cisco was a tiny town. Margaret and her sisters, Ellen and Katherine, attended a one room school house, and their teachers frequently boarded at the McBride home.

  10. The Life of a City: A new documentary looks to urban planning to solve tomorrow's problems

    If you're optimistic about our chances of tackling the big challenges facing humanity in the 21st century &mdash; poverty, overpopulation, the environment, the fair allocation of political power &mdash; then you're likely to feel good about the state of cities. After all, over 50 percent of the world's population now lives in cities, and experts expect that number to soar to something like 70 percent by the middle of this century. If the aforementioned problems are to be solved, their solutions will probably be found in an urban context. Cities consume 75 percent of world energy, so a small improvement in urban power usage can have a huge effect. <em>Urbanized</em>, a new feature-length documentary by filmmaker Gary Hustwit (<em>Helvetica</em>, <em>Objectified</em>), explores the world of contemporary urban design, showcasing how city planning is likely to shape the ways we live and think about shared communal space well into the future. (The film premieres in Hartford this week.) Whether we have good reason to be optimistic is a question left unanswered by the documentary.

    Los Angeles Times Staff Writer
