Potential Issues

The following missing or conflicting information caused the validator to perform guesswork prior to validation. If the guess or fallback is incorrect, it may make validation results entirely incoherent. It is highly recommended to check these potential issues, and, if necessary, fix them and re-validate the document.

  1. Warning Byte-Order Mark found in UTF-8 File.

    The Unicode Byte-Order Mark (BOM) in UTF-8 encoded files is known to cause problems for some text editors and older browsers. You may want to consider avoiding its use until it is better supported.

  52. <p>My name is Christine Hummel.&nbsp; I live in Kalamazoo, MI but my hometown is
  53. Parchment, MI.&nbsp; As you can see by the picture below my family is not small,
  54. but is not real large either.&nbsp;
  55. Included in the photo is my son, my mom and stepdad, my dad and stepmom, my
  56. sister and brother-in-law, nephew, my brother, and one of my cousins.&nbsp; I graduated from Parchment high school in 1983.&nbsp; I was at Army basic training in Ft. Dix, NJ
  57. by November 1983.&nbsp; My first duty
  58. assignment was at Ft. Campbell, KY, where I also had my son.&nbsp; My military
  59. occupational specialty (MOS) was as a Personnel Information Systems Management
  60. Specialist (also know as 75F).&nbsp; From Ft. Campbell I was transferred to Garlstedt, Germany and then to the Presidio, CA.&nbsp; In 1992, I returned to
  61. Michigan and joined the National Guard.&nbsp; My MOS in the guard was as an
  62. Automated Logistics Specialist (also know as 92A).&nbsp; In 2003 my unit was deployed to Iraq for a
  63. year.&nbsp; While deployed we traveled to Kuwait, Qatar, and Iraq.&nbsp; In Iraq
  64. we traveled to many places, such as Baghdad, Camp Dogwood, Taji, Camp Anaconda,
  65. and Mosul.&nbsp; The year in Iraq helped me appreciate things that I have here
  66. in the U.S., such as running water, indoor restrooms, and electricity.&nbsp; My
  67. civilian job is as an office associate for The Evaluation Center at Western
  68. Michigan University.&nbsp; I have been with the Center almost 10 years and enjoy
  69. my work and the people.&nbsp; I received my associates degree for Business
  70. Information in 2005 and began to work on my bachelor&#39;s for E-BizD in 2006.</p>

  80. In 1909, Jacob Kindleberger opened the Kalamazoo Vegetable Parchment Company
  81. along the Kalamazoo River.&nbsp; In 1930, Parchment officially became a village
  82. with a population of approximately 511.&nbsp; In 1939 Parchment became a city.&nbsp;
  83. The name Parchment comes from the parchment mill that was the center of the town
  84. at that time.&nbsp; Since the main item produced in Parchment was paper, it also
  85. became know as the Paper City, at least until 2000.&nbsp; The paper mills have
  86. changed owners many times over the years.&nbsp; I grew up with it as Brown
  87. Company, then it changed to James River, and the final owner was Crown Vantage.&nbsp; In
  88. 2006 there was a population of approximately 2,000. Many of the residents grew
  89. up in Parchment and now their children are also growing up there.&nbsp; </p>
  90. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  92. <p>Parchment is north of Kalamazoo and east of the Kalamazoo river.&nbsp; The
  93. main road that runs through Parchment is Riverview drive. There is only one high
  94. school and one middle school in Parchment.&nbsp; The high school teaches grades
  95. 9-12 and the middle school teaches grades 6-8.&nbsp; The high school still looks
  96. like it did when I attended but the middle school went through some remodeling.&nbsp;

  105. <p>The one attraction of Parchment that has last throughout the years is
  106. Kindleberger Park.&nbsp; The park is approximately 40 acres and was given to the
  107. city of Parchment by the Kindleberger family.&nbsp; The park has two
  108. playgrounds, 2 softball diamonds, a 4 diamond little league complex, a tennis
  109. court, a stage for outdoor performances, 3 picnic pavilions that are covered,
  110. many paved pathways for walking, running, or riding of bikes, and a sunken
  111. formal garden with a gazebo.&nbsp; The park is a place where many weddings have
  112. been performed because of the beautiful landscaping, which includes tall trees,
  113. lush grass, and rolling hills.<img alt="Hills" src="images/Parchment%20Kindleberger%20hills-sm.jpg" width="332" height="182" style="float: right"></img></p>

  121. The main drag, as some would refer to it, is only 3 lights long.&nbsp; The
  122. buildings that were there when I was growing up are still there but have changed
  123. ownership.&nbsp; Surprisingly, the pizza shop that was there when I was growing
  124. up is still located in
  125. the same location in the main part of town.
