Battle of the C towns, Community engagement + can Rio Ferdinand keep fit on his green roof?

I'm a friendly fellow and as always I'm looking for more ways to get to know my neighbors. Yes magazine comes through with a great article about the awakening the power of families and neighborhoods.

-The local food movement is expanding throughout the US heartland, Indianapolis keep doing your thing!

-Whole Village , just an hour from Toronto, is looking for more folks to join their eco-village. Previous members have moved on there's a terrific opportunity for those interested to join right away!

-Interesting developments in Colorado, Colorado Springs. 1/3 of the traffic lights have been turned off, evening and weekend bus service was eliminated entirely. Sounds like the anti-Cranston, Rhode Island.

-Soccer is the best sport in the world...I can state that unequivically and there is no way one can argue that. :) Exhibit one, when you have luminaries of your sport, like Rio Ferdinand, building eco-friendly homes (which will include a green roof, naturally) how can your sport be beat? The house will be 12,000 square feet, however. Don't laugh, I didn't say footballers were perfect!
