# Block & Kuhl

Block & Kuhl (originally Schipper & Block) was a chain of department stores based in Peoria, Illinois that was bought by Carson Pirie Scott in 1961. Block & Kuhl stores were converted to the Carson Pirie Scott name.

## History

Block & Kuhl traced its roots to 1863 or 1864 and the C. Bonk and Co., a dry goods store with John H. Schipper as Bonk's partner. After Bonk's death, Henry C. Block joined the company, thus becoming the Schipper and Block Co., located at 304 Margaret St. in Pekin, Illinois. In 1874, they moved to 302 Court Street, corner of 3rd. As their business grew, they opened a second shop at Court and Capitol, on Oct. 12, 1879. Years later they opened a store in Peoria which soon after became the largest dry goods emporium in downstate Illinois.
Schipper died in 1893, and Block continued to operate the business until a fire in 1898 that destroyed the Court & Capitol store. A new building was erected in its place. Then around 1900, Block sold a considerable interest to George Ehrlicher, Block's assistant, closed the store at Court & 3rd and consolidated operations into the new Court & Capitol emporium.
In 1905, they opened a store in Peoria, which would later become the company's headquarters and flagship store.
The company's name was changed to Block and Kuhl Co. on Jan. 1, 1914, when Theodore Kuhl became president – but the Schipper & Block Co. sign remained for years. Another fire in February 1922 destroyed the store, which was rebuilt again by December 1922.
In 1929, Block & Kuhl commemorated the 50th anniversary of the Pekin Court & Capitol store by displaying a giant flag across the side of the Peoria store. Listed as the largest U.S. flag in Illinois it saluted President Herbert Hoover's plan to provide relief to the nation's farmers.
George Ehrlicher's sons George Jr. and Arthur took over the business after their father, and they kept the business going until In 1961, Block and Kuhl Co. sold to Carson Pirie Scott and most locations were converted to Carson Pirie Scott stores. In May 1962, when business reverses made it necessary for the Ehrlicher brothers to sell the Pekin store. George Jr. died in Sept. 1962, just four months after the sale.

# Spring Creek (Bald Eagle Creek tributary)

Spring Creek is a 25.2-mile-long (40.6 km) tributary of Bald Eagle Creek in Centre County, Pennsylvania in the United States.
Formed by springs near the base of Tussey Mountain, Spring Creek flows through Nittany Valley past State College. It then flows through Spring Creek Canyon and through the town of Bellefonte, before eventually passing through a water gap in Bald Eagle Mountain. The stream joins Bald Eagle Creek in the town of Milesburg.

## Recreation

Spring Creek is a popular outdoor recreation destination for kayaking, hiking, and fly fishing. Throughout most of Spring Creek Canyon, the stream is paralleled by the Spring Creek Canyon Trail, offering public access.

### Fly Fishing

Spring Creek is renowned as a popular fly fishing destination in the Northeast. The stream is well-known for Fisherman's Paradise, a 1.12 mile section owned and managed by the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission. The majority of Spring Creek is managed under Catch and Release, All-Tackle fishing regulations, however Fisherman's Paradise is specially managed under Catch and Release, Fly Fishing Only regulations.
Benner Spring State Fish Hatchery, a 40 acre trout hatchery operated by the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission, is situated on Spring Creek. The stream, as well as nearby Benner Spring, provide water to the facility.

### Kayaking

Spring Creek is the site of a kayak and canoe slalom training center, located in Bellefonte. Additionally, a class I whitewater run of roughly 2 miles exists from Bellefonte to the stream's mouth in Milesburg.

## Tributaries

* Buffalo Run
# Spring Creek (Fort Collins, Colorado)

Spring Creek is a 12.7-mile-long (20.4 km) tributary of the Cache La Poudre River in the state of Colorado in the United States.
Spring Creek begins north of Horsetooth Mountain within Horsetooth Mountain Park just west of Fort Collins, Colorado, and flows into Horsetooth Reservoir. After leaving Horsetooth Reservoir out of Spring Canyon Dam, Spring Creek flows through central Fort Collins just south of Colorado State University. For most of its passage through the city, it is paralleled by the city-maintained Spring Creek Trail.
The Spring Creek Trail follows Spring Creek through several parks in mid Fort Collins. It currently extends from Spring Canyon park at the southern end of Overland Trail to the confluence of Spring Creek and the Poudre River where it joins the Poudre Trail. The Spring Creek Trail extends through a new underpass of Taft Hill Road. This highly popular trail continues to Spring Canyon Community Park and the Pineridge Natural Area. The Spring Creek Trail is 6.6 miles.

## Spring Creek flood of 1997

From July 27 to July 28, 1997, 14.5 inches of rain fell within the city of Fort Collins, causing Spring Creek to flow over its banks and into surrounding communities. The flash flood transformed this tiny creek into a torrent, killing five people and causing an estimated $200 million worth of damage to public and private property, making this event the city's worst natural disaster. The campus and academic buildings of Colorado State University was also severely damaged. Soon after the floods, President Clinton issued disaster declarations for 13 counties affected by the flood event, including Larimer County, which received $5.2 million in aid from FEMA for individual assistance. Colorado State University received $1.2 million in aid from FEMA to pay for repairs to damaged buildings. A hydrometeorological study revealed that the Horsetooth reservoir, which rose 50 cm in response to the flood, produced a significant flood reduction benefit.
The Spring Creek flood spawned a national weather-watcher program called CoCoRaHS, the Community Collaborative Rain, Hail and Snow Network, which uses volunteers to measure rain, hail and snow.
# Stephen J. Pyne

Stephen J. Pyne (born 1949) is an emeritus professor at Arizona State University, specializing in environmental history, the history of exploration, and especially the history of fire.

## Education

Pyne received his bachelor's degree at Stanford University after graduating from Brophy College Preparatory, a Jesuit high school, in Phoenix, Arizona. He later attained his master's (1974) and Ph.D. degrees (1976) at the University of Texas at Austin, receiving a MacArthur Fellowship in 1988. He also received a summer Fulbright Fellowship to Sweden, was awarded two National Endowment for the Humanities Fellowships, and had two tours at the National Humanities Center. He was a professor at Arizona State University from 1985 to 2018.
Pyne spent fifteen seasons as a wildland firefighter at the North Rim of Grand Canyon National Park between 1967 and 1981, twelve as crew boss. He later spent the summers of 1983–85 writing fire plans for Rocky Mountain and Yellowstone national parks.

## Career and research

Many of Pyne's works recount the history of exploration. These writings include his biography of G.K. Gilbert, The Ice, How the Canyon Became Grand, Voyager, and The Great Ages of Discovery. How Western Civilization Learned About a Wider World. Other works include The Last Lost World, which he wrote with his daughter, Lydia V. Pyne, and two books on writing nonfiction, Voice and Vision and Style and Story.
Since the 1982 publication of his second book, Fire in America, Pyne has become an authority on the history and management of fire, cataloging the fire histories of Australia, Canada, Europe (including Russia), Mexico, and the overall planet. He has written and co-authored three textbooks on landscape fires and their management. His 2015 book Between Two Fires and nine-volume series of regional fire reconnaissances,To the Last Smoke, update his earlier history of US fire, surveying events from 1960 to 2013. He is frequently asked to provide historical and comparative context for current fire-related issues.
Pyne has criticized the proposed Anthropocene epoch as emphasizing a single species' domination over the environment. He instead advocates for a "Pyrocene epoch" defined by humanity's usage of fire, opposite to the Pleistocene epoch's Ice Age. Managed combustion of fossil fuels has supported the industrialization that is causing significant reductions in biodiversity and climate change, while the nuclear weapons testing has increased the soil concentration of trace elements.

## Works
### The City of Silence

His short storyThe City of Silence was translated into English by science fiction writer Ken Liu and appeared in the anthology Invisible Planets published by Head of Zeus in November 2016. That translation is truer to the original author's intent then the Chinese version, which was self-censored. Ironically, the theme of that story is censorship; the setting of the Chinese version is fictional version of the New York City, while the English version takes place in a more neutral "Capital of the State", more easily invoking the comparison with China, that the author intended.

# Master of Theological Studies

A Master of Theological Studies (MTS) is a graduate degree, offered in theological seminary or graduate faculty of theology, which gives students lay training in theological studies. Under Association of Theological Schools in the United States and Canada (ATS) standards, programs require graduates to have earned an accredited bachelor's degree or its equivalent. Programs usually require students to complete two years of full-time study or its equivalent to earn the degree. The degree can serve as preparation for entering a masters or doctoral program in theology (Th.D.), religion (Ph.D.), or a related subject, such as education, counseling, social sciences, or humanities.
The MTS degree should not be confused with the Master of Sacred Theology (STM) degree which is usually an additional year-long program of advanced study after the MTS or Master of Divinity (M.Div.) degree focusing on one area of special interest.
Some divinity schools and seminaries, notably Yale Divinity School, use the degree title "Master of Arts in Religion", abbreviated MAR, instead of Master of Theological Studies.

## Curriculum

The MTS may require the completion of a summative evaluation, which could be a thesis or other project. The complete standards are listed in the Association of Theological Schools in the United States and Canada ATS Program Standards for the MTS degree.
The ATS standards specify that the bulk of courses in the MTS program be academic rather than professional.
