Humanely raised corn-fed beef? Non gmo? Any brands you can recommend?
- c
- certifiedhumane Mar 17, 2012 05:29 PM
Hey guys good afternoon! Well I am looking for some corn-fed beef. The main thing needs to be that the cows are treated humanely! The other main concern would be I need to know that the corn they are being fed is NON GMO! Basically I have found I prefer the taste of corn-fed to grass-fed and with me, the only thing I care about is how the cows are being treated, so I don't mind if they eat corn, and in fact if you think about it the cows eating corn are probably alot happier because they like corn!
I have been buying Storm Hill Beef from Storm Hill Beef Co-Op, found at atmytable.com which I highly recommend, however there's is only corn finished so it still has that slightly grassy flavor! I would gladly continue to support these guys til the end however I wanted to make sure there wasn't anything else out there!
I have found some beef called Brandt Beef, corn-fed, however while they do say they follow humane treatment it says nothing about gmos, so I have emailed them for an answer.
I am still researching some more however I wanted to hear from some of you guys since my previous forum topics have been such a success in terms of help received :) Have a good weekend :) Good eats :)
You may need to find a farmer rather than a 'brand.' I haven't seen any large scale beef producers using non GMO corn but there may very well be some out there. Try a farmers market or look on the Eatwild site. They might have some good resources. Good luck and happy eating!
re: JeremyEG
Ok that will be tough, ahaaha... Thank you man for the help however that link you sent is for grass-fed specifically so I'm not sure that will work for me.. Any other ideas? I'm not sure where to look . . . Have a good one then :)
re: JeremyEG
Jeremy, you sound like you know what you are talking about with beef. I am doing research on GMO foods. Can you tell me where I can go (links) to find info on GMO fed to farm animals for human consumption. It sounds like most beef bought at supermarkets and from suppliers are fed GMO corn and Soy? Is this a good assumption?
re: RickKT
Hi Rick,
I think that's a fair assumption but certainly someone here will know more than I do. Since a huge amount of beef is raised by just a handful of companies, you can probably contact them to find out if they use GMO corn and I'm 99% sure that they do. Sorry I don't have specific sources to send you!
I think you're not going to be able to find what you are asking for.
Corn by itself isn't enough for cattle- it's low in protein and also is often flaked or rolled for better nutrient absorption. It is usually mixed with oats, barley or soy and fed in the form of grain.
While cows may like the taste of grain, their stomachs aren't as well-adapted to handle it (compared to grass), which is one reason why antibiotics and growth hormones are typically used in the feed, to help the cattle absorb the nutrients from the grain better. Also grain-fed cattle need to be kept in close quarters for easy access to feeding troughs, which leads to a greater need for antibiotics due to the increased chance of infection from various diseases like mastitis. So, grain feeding is generally practiced by larger operations aiming for efficiency, and non-GMO grain (if it's even available- I'm not sure it is) would be more expensive, making it undesirable to such operations.
A small farmer might be inclined to used non-GMO grain. But a small farmer with more of an interest in raising humanely wouldn't be likely to raise grain-fed beef because they usually are aiming to use antibiotics and hormones as little as possible and to not raise the cows in close quarters. And again, even small farmers who may be using grain probably wouldn't be looking for the cost increase non-GMO grain would cause, when the vast majority of their market wouldn't pay extra for it. I have heard Brandt recommended by chefs in my area, so I'd be curious to hear what you learn about the GMO question and whether the beef is fully grain raised.
I wonder how compatible humane and grain-raised beef really are. Grain-finished, yes. But grain-raised... it doesn't seem likely. Brandt does claim to do it, but based on the research I've done and the farmers I've talked to, I don't really understand how it's possible. And even Brandt's site mentions forage, so it doesn't seem to be the pure grain diet you are seeking. I'll be interested to hear from others who know more about this issue! And maybe what you really want is grain finished, not grain raised. If that's the case, Prather Ranch is another you may want to investigate.
many humane beef producers believe that feeding cattle corn is quite problematic for the animals' health. maybe continue to investigate grass-fed to see if there is a producer/breed you prefer, if humane is the goal.
however, corn finished, certified organic beef may be something to look into. certified organic beef can't be fed gmo corn, and the animals are more likely to be treated carefully and humanely.
You may already be aware of the eatwild website for finding sources for meats? eatwild.com.
You might try contacting a farmer in your area listed there that does a longer grain finish or aging, that is more to your liking. As said before, most farmers that care about animal health will not keep them on grain their entire life. Individual farmers though, will often finish (or long finish, or intermittently supplement) on their own organic hay from the farm. Good luck!
Also, don't throw in the towel quite yet on all grass-fed beef. Where are you located? Near me, I have found some exceptional grass-fed beef producers doing dry-aging. They are also know quite a bit about breeds and feeding and let me tell you, the best cuts of theirs have marbling that I could have sworn came from a corn fed cow at a very expensive steak house. The meat is in some ways richer than corn fed and without a distinct 'grassy' taste. Ask around. At the very least, you'll get to do some fun taste tests!
Corn fed/grain fed = feedlot=cramped enclosures/undue completion at feeding time= stress=unhealthy animals. Grass fed=crazing=relaxed animals=healthy animals. Some ranchers will 'finish' a steer/cow with grain/corn a couple of weeks before slaughter. This can make the fat a yellowish color but IMO it doesn't really fundamentally change the flavor of the meat that much in so short a time.
In case you happen to be quite wealthy, you could try http://www.lobels.com/store/naturalpr...
I can only afford their regular beef a few times a year, but you'll see that the natural is free ranging and anitbiotic free. No mention of GMO grain, perhaps you could call them.
re: danna
Me and my brother raise Angus cattle that are pasture (grass) fed with grain (corn) forage. We have finished beef every way we can think of, grass-fed, pasture-fed with grain, and even dry lot (feedlot, no grass) fed.
One year my brother took his beef steers to a feedlot to be fed. It is a small feedlot that does bull tests for registered seedstock producers. He said he had the beef processed the same way that he always does, dry aged for 14 days. But when he tasted the beef it did not have the same good flavor that he was used to when he fed his steers at home on pasture, eating grass. We are very sure that cattle that are on pasture eating grass have a much better taste than cattle that are fed in a dry lot with no grass.
Once I took a very young grass-fed (grass only) Angus heifer to be processed for beef. When we tasted the beef it tasted gamey and unpleasant.
From my experience with grass-fed beef, and from what I have read about good grass-fed beef, I believe that beef cattle that are not consuming enough energy (calories) to meet their particular level of net energy for growth (NEg) will have an unpleasant taste. Young cattle have very high NEg requirements, while mature cattle have a much lower NEg requirement. This is probably the reason that older grass-fed cattle have a better taste. Older cattle are able to get most of the net energy for maintenance (NEm) from fiber and don't need much net energy for growth (NEg) that would come from sugars and starches.
From all of our experimentation with different ways to feed beef cattle, we have found that pasture-fed with grain forage gives the beef the best taste. We feed our beef on pasture so they get the good taste of grass-fed beef, but also feed them corn (which is high in starch and energy) so that we can harvest young tender beef that is not off tasting and gamey.
Certifiedhumane, you are definately on the right track. Happy cows do taste better. Right now the best way to get corn fed beef from cows that are well treated is to contact a small rancher who is raising beef cattle and ask them to fed a steer for you.
re: AngusCattleman
As a beef consumer far, far from the ranch, I thank you for your most informative post.

Additional Troopers To Boost Enforcement, Community Outreach
While the State Legislature continues to refine the budget, local troopers are watching how the Governor's pledge of 20 new troopers will pan out. So far, the House Finance Committee has already reduced that figure to 15.
Captain Andy Greenstreet, with the Soldotna Trooper Post, said it's not clear how many troopers will be added, but described how he'd like to use the extra help…
Cpt. Greenstreet: "I'd be interested in enhancing our enforcement efforts, especially into the evening hours, as well as explore the possibility of some other programs to include maybe school resource officers, community police officers that could kind of stay in a community or be that community's Trooper. Also, interested in starting a student Trooper Explorer program, where we can kind of be a mentor to younger people in High School and offer that service. Expose them to what a career in law enforcement is really like."

By rotating it round and round, using either the virtual buttons or the accelerometer, you make sure Neko is able to get to places that he would otherwise not have been able to reach, but watch out! When you rotate, keep in mind that fire always wants to burn up, rocks always fall down and wind keeps coming from the sides; this might just do all kinds of funky stuff inside a rotating room!

There was a time when the downtown centers of towns and small cities such as Middletown were the leading edge of America's economy. There was enough money to build substantial brick and stone buildings, to support a department store, to showcase monuments and parks and to fill churches with beautiful woodwork and stained glass.
Those signs of prosperity are faded in Middletown these days. Retail business has moved to sprawlier locations, leaving many storefronts empty. But a lot of the infrastructure is still there and, on at least one corner, being brought back to life.
Jay and Linda Moorman, owners of BeauVerre/Riordan stained glass studio, bought the former Murphy's department store and are turning it into a mini-art district, including his glass studio and a restaurant called Stained 1054 Bistro.
It's a beautiful restaurant with the charm of a more handcrafted time. Mounted along the windows to the street are stained glass windows in glowing colors of green and amber. From the same Middletown Baptist church came the antique light fixtures. A small bar at one end was built from the church's pipe organ and pews. New, curving banquettes are in a line down the middle. The stained glass centerpiece was made by the Riordan studio in Cincinnati in 1885.
You might want to wait just a little while to visit. They aren't running completely smoothly yet. And the food has a lot of potential it hasn't reached.
We waited maybe 45 minutes on a Saturday night. But we enjoyed looking at the old and new stained glass in the studio, studying the memorabilia displayed in the hall, and reading about the history of the Riordan stained glass company. Once seated, we waited awhile for water and menus and drinks, though the servers were trying hard. We ended up in the hands of a competent and friendly server, but things still took awhile. The room is a bit loud, too.
The restaurant is owned by Mark Bursley, the owner of The Red Onion in Monroe, which has a good reputation for above-average bar food. The Red Onion chef, Gary Henz, is here at Stained, presenting a somewhat more ambitious menu.
White bean soup ($4) was delicious but lukewarm. Blue cheese kettle chips ($7), with drizzles of balsamic, were a nice nosh, but not really a restaurant appetizer. A crab cake ($12) was nicely presented with julienned vegetables. Lettuce cups ($8), consisting of chicken strips in a flavorful sauce with crisp lettuce for wrapping, were flavorful and good to share. Salads, with good homemade dressings, come with entrees.
I was quite pleased with my Cajun crab Louis entree salad ($15) – plenty of plain crab meat on top of iceberg and vegetables with a nice thousand island dressing. The "deconstructed pot pie" ($20) was a spoonful of braised beef cubes topped with a long skinny triangle of flaky puff pastry.
Mushroom risotto ($17) was terribly bland, served on spinach leaves with drips of an orange sauce, topped with slices of portabella: nothing you would expect from reading the words "mushroom risotto."
A Cajun shrimp pasta ($23) was quite tasty, but BBQ pork "Carolina style" ($20) wasn't – too lean, too sweet, served with good fried potatoes. So a mixed bag in terms of food; certainly improvable.
Desserts ($6), made by an outside baker, were perfect. They included a tangy, rich lemon icebox pie, bittersweet chocolate cheesecake with a crisp dark chocolate crust, and a moist but light Italian cream cake.
It's not yet a destination for the food, but it's worth trying if you happen to be nearby, especially on a weekday. And if you're interested in antiques, stained glass or creative re-use of old spaces, put Stained on your list. Don't forget to get dessert.

What is it that is happening to my knee? It does not hurt when walking, only when I kneel or bend, but it feels like I'm kneeling on a rock.
What is it that is happening to my knee? It does not hurt when walking, only when I kneel or bend, but it feels like I'm kneeling on a rock.
Hi Gale,
Kneeling increases the pressure underneath the knee cap, so when you kneel you are feeling the pain of a patellofemoral joint problem.
Patellofemoral pain syndrome can hurt when going up and down stairs or hills. This condition is usually associated with a misalignment of the knee cap that causes the problems with the gliding motion of the knee cap.
Sometimes there can be some roughness like pebbles underneath the kneecap that interfer with the gliding motion of the knee cap against the femur. This condition is patellofemoral arthritis.
The best way to get an accurate diagnosis is to see an Orthopedic specialist. Or you can just stop kneeling.

Shooters World is home to the largest and most advanced indoor shooting range in Tampa and in the Southeast United States. The Shooters World firing range features three 25 yard pistol ranges with nine shooting lanes each and a 100 yard rifle range with seven lanes. Our reactive steel range features various dynamic steel target systems that offer a shooting experience unlike any other. Rentals of Semi-automatic and Fully-Automatic weapons are available. Closed-circuit security monitoring is conducted for the safety of our patrons and employees. The Shooters World gun range in Tampa is open to the public with range reservations available only for Shooters World Platinum members. Our viewing area and lounge are secured with bulletproof glass and feature a comfortable view of our pistol range, as well as high definition televisions with surround sound. In addition to complimentary soda, coffee, and water, our lounge includes a milkshake machine and snacks available for purchase. Our planned Shooters World in Orlando will be one of the largest indoor shooting ranges in the world with 15-yard lanes, 25-yard lanes, 50-yard lanes, and 100-yard lanes.
The firing range has been developed to offer the cleanest and most technologically advanced shooting experience available. Since shooter comfort and air quality were the primary concern when building the Tampa gun range, Shooters World developed the air conditioning and filtration system that is the finest of any public indoor shooting range in the country.
Until recently, most indoor shooting ranges have operated without the benefits of environmental technologies developed over the years. Utilizing radial diffusers and custom ventilation designs, our mechanical engineers manufactured and installed the best solution to the ventilation issues facing indoor firing ranges. Our system exceeds NIOSH, EPA, and OSHA air quality standards.
Shooters World is rated a Five Star Facility by the National Shooting Sports Foundation for its commitment to gun range appearance, management, customer service, amenities, customer development and community relations.

The Lightning Thief
All seats: $15
Percy Jackson is about to be kicked out of boarding school...again. And that's the least of his troubles. Lately, mythological monsters and the gods of Mount Olympus seem to be walking straight out of the pages of Percy's Greek mythology textbook and into his life. And worse, he's angered a few of them. Zeus's master lightning bolt has been stolen and Percy is the prime suspect.
Now Percy has ten days to find and return Zeus's stolen property and bring peace to a warring Mount Olympus. But to succeed on his quest, Percy will have to do more than catch the true thief: he must come to terms with the father who abandoned him; solve the riddle of the Oracle, which warns him of betrayal by a friend; and unravel a treachery more powerful than the gods themselves. Based on the popular book series by Rick Riordan.
This family musical is approximately one hour in length and brought to you from the creators at Theatreworks USA. It's appropriate for audiences in grades 2-6.

Hey! I watch Masterpiece Classics and I love football and Downton (not Downtown) Abbey! I know there is this presumed great divide between people who enjoy culture and those who like sports, but there are a few well rounded people out there. Admittedly, I didn't use to be that interested in sports. I started watching football, basketball and auto racing in order to have something to talk to my brother about. Fifteen years later, I am just as excited to see the best offense in the country compete against the best defense in the country as I am to see the next episode of Downton Abbey.

Wonderful, caring teachers! As a single mom, I appreciate the diversity of the families and welcoming atmosphere. There are many fun gethering for families to participate in. The children are kind and respectible. Top it off with the great education and you can't get any betther!
This school is absolutely wonderful; my daughter has gone to this school since K-3 and is now in K. She loves this school and so do we. The principal and all the teachers have a real calling for this occupation and are not there just for a paycheck. The tuition and extended care rates are very affordable and they offer discounts for military, church parishioners and returning students; few other schools offer this combination of discounts. Best of all, the children are so well behaved and get a lot of personal attention. They learn German as a regular part of the curriculum and are all well ahead of their peers from other schools; graduates are well received and perform in the top of their classes. The extended care hours are very flexible and affordable. They offer Girl scouts, drama, art, gymnastics during extended care hours right at the school for very affordable rates. As dual military parents, it makes us feel great because otherwise we could not get her to these events. We tried 4 other schools before this one and were never quiet satisfied, but Trinity Lutheran School is truly exceptional! We plan to retire from here so we can have her attend through 5th grade!
We sent our son to Trinity for two years before we had to move. The faculty and staff are great educators and kind people. Our son was in the pre-K program, and he learned letters, numbers, basic phonics, and even some math! This is not just daycare. I can't recommend Trinity highly enough.
NORFOLK'S HIDDEN GEM!! You must tour this school to experience the difference. The staff are amazing!! My husband is military and we trying to stay in the area because we just simply cannot think about removing our daughter from this school. They are above and beyond in academics and teach the children how to be kind and respectful. I cannot say enough good things about the school and staff. All staff members truly care and love the children. You must see it for yourself!
My daughter started attending this year and it's great! We've moved around a lot and been in good schools and so-so schools for our older children so we can tell good from bad. This school has caring teachers and a challenging curriculum. They have an anti-bullying policy in place, lots of activities, and monthly field trips so the kids can experience learning outside of the classroom. What they plan on doing in K this year is more advanced that what my children had learned in 1st grade at other schools. I'm excited and can't wait to see all the progress that she makes by the end of the year.
My daughter loves it here. The teachers and staff are well qualified and caring. The other children are great and on the rare occasion when there is a problem it is handled quickly and caringly. I would recommend Trinity to any parent seeking a quality education in Norfolk
I would recommend this school to anyone who is considering a private school in Norfolk for their elementary age child. The student teacher ratio is very small, especially above kindergarten, and it is a sweet, old-fashioned school environment, with excellent academic standards. After paying for other private schools in Norfolk, this one is a best buy!
An educational gem in Norfolk, which has many private school options for the Prek-5th grade level. Trinity is well-run, organized, and produces bright, well-behaved and caring students. I could not be more pleased with the education provided as well as the level of commitment from the parents and administrators. A true gem. Outstanding education and experience, has been a huge blessing in our lives and the other families are wonderful.
Principal, teachers and staff display a caring and nurturing environment for all students. The curriculum is challenging and is Christ-centered. All three of my children went through Trinity Lutheran School and were fully prepared for the demands of grades beyond what they had received at Trinity. As a grandmother, I am pleased to have had my grandson at TLC for the past four years.
Trinity has been my child's school now for 4 years and we LOVE them!! Each grade has been a different experience but has had a wonderful teacher. There are always welcoming faces on the staff and I know my son is being left in the hands of caring individual's. The new on-line system has really brought this school forward with technology and though they are a small operation they are well now and respected in the community.
My daughter has attended Trinity for two years. I have never met a more wonderful, caring staff in my life, and I have a background in education. I cannot praise Trinity enough. She is currently in the Prek4 class; her teacher who has taught at Trinity for more than 20 years. She attends German class, library, music, PE and computers. Additionally, she spends plenty of time playing, socializing, practicing writing and using scissors, all age-appropriate activities. Perhaps the greatest thing I find with Trinity is that the younger children are as involved in the school as the older kids. They have 'Play and Pray' pals who practice reading to them, they participate in the school-wide concerts and shows, and the families are all welcomed at the various family events throughout the year. It is a true family and has made our time here in Norfolk truly wonderful!
I have nothing but the best to say about Trinity. They are warm, caring and make learning fun. They are so involved with community events and are always doing things to help school families. It is nice to see in this day in age that tradition is still important to them. They are not behind in technology though. I am impressed with the new on-line grading/ communication tool the school has just introduced. I always know when assignments are due and what grade my son received is as soon as it is posted!
We sent our daughter to Trinity Lutheran for two years, after hearing mixed reviews about our local public school. While we had a pleasant enough experience at Trinity, had I to do it over, I would have skipped Trinity and sent her to our local public school. The school is small, nurturing and offers a safe environment for its students. Mrs. Hales (the first grade teacher) is one of the best in the area. That said, the administration can be unapproachable (although, in fairness, the only complaint I ever had to take to that level was addressed immediately), some of the teachers are a bit unfriendly, and behavioral problems never seem to get fully resolved. The school is ve religious-based, to the point that religion and academics are almost equally matched in importance and time spent teaching. The class sizes can become ridiculously small (four and five students per class in the upper grades) and the ryschool offers nothing in the way of extra-curricular activities. If you are interested in a private school environment, Trinity is an affordable alternative to other area private school options.
Trinity Lutheran School has been part of the Tidewater community for over 60 years and it shows. They have deep roots in their tradition, but that does not mean they are behind on their educational standards. With small class sizes each student definetly gets plenty of individual attention. This school has made it clear that they put kids first.
My daughter has attended Trinity for the past two years and our experience has been wonderful. The faculty and staff put their whole heart in to the school. I do not agree with the statement by the last parent. The adminstrator and her staff are some of the kindest people I have ever found, they made our family feel like part of theirs. I have always felt I could go to the Administration and have any concern be taken seriously and reviewed with thought. This school has expectations for parents to be apart of their childs education and to help support the teacher and staff decisions. It saddens me to hear such negative things be said about Trinity when I have never experienced any of this - only a child that has never complained and is always happy to go to school.
Things are not what they seem here. It does not do any good to speak up because the director doesn't care. The teachers make you think they care but it's just a job. I am not sending my child back there next year. Christian school? HA! It's nothing but clicks there. I know there is something better.
After seeing all of the problems other parents were having with the public school system, we knew we would invest in a private education for our children. We have attended Trinity for 3 years now and are overall happy with our experience. The parent involvement at this school is huge, with all sorts of family oriented events provided by the parent association. However, the administration should pay closer attention to problems that the parents are having and make a better effort to resolve them instead of just sweeping it under the rug. The parents would also benefit from more personal communication on how our children are progressing academically and behaviorally.
I wish they would read and write more in school,and have normal book reports.
This is a great school. My daughter has attended from prek3 to 5th grade. If you want a good Christian education for your child. This is the place.

Donald J. Sobol, Creator of Encyclopedia Brown, Dies at 87
Donald J. Sobol, the creator of Encyclopedia Brown, the clever boy detective who made bookworms of many a reluctant young reader, died on Wednesday in South Miami. He was 87.
The cause was gastric lymphoma, his son John said.
Mr. Sobol's books have been translated into 12 languages and have sold millions of copies worldwide, according to his publisher, Penguin Young Readers Group. He continued to write every day until a month or so before his death, his son said. The 28th book in the series, "Encyclopedia Brown and the Case of the Soccer Scheme," is to be published in October.
The first Encyclopedia Brown book came out in 1963 (after being rejected by two dozen publishers, something Mr. Sobol liked to tell aspiring writers to encourage them not to lose faith in their work).

67 Appendix B Ideas For Change OVERALL IDEAS ON NEEDS FOR CHANGES This survey was a bit unique in that it gave open-ended questions to respondents. As a result most respondents gave details that were best suited to their understanding and situation, and their thoughts on ideas much larger than could be captured in a multiple answer survey instrument. These rich responses from over one hundred people allowed for a variety of topics, ideas, and potential solutions that could not have been predicted in the survey development. The most pressing needs for environ- mental surveys were also given with specific ideas about what needed to change about current systems approaches to looking at the ecological world from a transportation development perspective. Over 30 respondents in every region of the country and in departments of transportation (DOTs) and Fish and Wildlife agencies addressed needs for change in the current systems that require environmental surveys. These concerned: coordination and cooperation; the need to study long-term, cumulative, and post-construction effects; how roads are placed in remaining undeveloped natural areas; how mitigation does not solve problems; and a need to increase concerns beyond the road right of way. These are presented here. Three Necessary Fundamental Changes To The Transportation Development Process The responses that went beyond the specific needs questions in the survey to speak of the fundamental flaws (as respondents saw them) to the transportation�development process can be summarized by three statements: 1. There is a need to be proactive and to understand what species and ecological resources are out there across a state long before any development or road project is considered. 2. There is an unfortunate belief that a road can be built without deleterious effects because the mitigation will "take care of it." 3. Road impacts occur at spatial and temporal scales far beyond what current environmental surveys methods consider, and there is a need to think beyond the road right of way in a holistic manner. The need to be proactive and survey all species in a state comprehensively prior to any development plans was a need conveyed in a variety of ways. A northeast wildlife agency respondent wrote, "We have a need for basic information on the statewide distribution and abundance of wildlife of all taxa." In the southeast, a respondent stated, "Oftentimes it is not the type of data that is missing, but that the surveys may only cover a limited geographical area and not provide statewide coverage and/or its application." A Midwest response helps to see where respondents would like to see the results of this survey research headed; "We are continually pushing for a proactive measure in comparison to a reactive one, which appears is what this survey may help provide." The following list of ideas on how this can be accomplished is a summary of how respondents thought this could come about. 1. There are needs to address species at risk, and what they are at risk from: construction; the road itself; traffic and predicted increases in traffic volume; additional development in the areas; pollutants in soil, water, and air (runoff, noise, light pol- lution); vegetation changes including invasive species, and right-of-way management; mowing and chemical management. 2. Streams and wetlands have species and processes we are unaware of. What species are there and in the different layers of the resource, what do they need, and where are the culverts that block those needs? 3. Go beyond the threatened and endangered species requirements. 4. Wildlife agencies and other natural resource agencies need to establish presence or absence of species. 5. The same natural resource agencies need to help determine habitat requirements of animal and plant species. 6. Natural resource researchers need to help determine the connectivity and movement requirements of all species that may be impacted by transportation corridors and ancillary impacts.

The Chargers practice participation report for Friday showed some promising trends.
For starters, Ryan Mathews participated in practice for the first time all week, even though his participation was limited. Mathews will probably play on Sunday, however, depending on how the game goes, may not get his usual 25+ carries. Ryan Mathews was practicing with some 'heavy ankle tape,' according to Tom Kravosic of the Union Tribune.
Ryan Mathews, ankle heavily taped, is practicing for the first time this week.
— Tom Krasovic (@UTkrasovic) December 27, 2013
Shareece Wright was upgraded to full participation after a slow start to the week. He is also a 'probable' to play on Sunday. Since he is the best corner on the roster, I'm sure he will see his usual amount of action.
Sean Lissemore, the starter at DT after Cam Thomas failed to make enough of an impact, was downgraded to limited participation today. He is also still probable to play on Sunday.

Altenmarkt-Zauchensee, Austria (Sportsnetwork.com) - Austria's Elisabeth Goergl and Anna Fenninger, with the support of thousands of cheering local fans, took first and second place of a brilliant race. Goergl charged out of the gate to beat her team mate by 0.56 seconds, marking her fifth career World Cup win and first ever podium in Zauchensee. Germany's Maria Hofl-Riesch finished in third position, 0.63 seconds off the pace.
Among the big names, Tina Weirather finished 4th, while Lara Gut and Tina Maze respectively ended in 11th and 12th position.
Despite relatively warm temperatures the track held up quite well allowing the 59 athletes to have a regular and fair race on the technical Kalberloch course.
Starting with bib number 28, Goergl performed a mistake-free run to race to her first victory within the last two years.
"I had a blast on the piste today and it's just great it ends up with a victory", commented the 32-year-old. "Last year was a touch one, it's quite a relief to experience that feeling again."
Fenninger got her sixth podium of the season. "I'm really happy with the second place", she said at the press conference. "I knew Lisi could perform today. She was strong in training. I made some small mistakes in the top section, but I clearly lost time in the last section where my line was too wide."
Hofl-Riesch increases her lead in the downhill standings. She has now 325 points, 34 more than Switzerland's Marianne Kaufmann-Abderhalden. With today's result however, Fenninger gained 20 points on Riesch and takes the lead in the overall standings, with 677 points with the German only 6 points behind.
"Even if I lost the lead in the overall today, it stays tight and I don't really worry about it now. There are so many races still to come. The aim is to stay focused and do my best in the next race and only at the end of the season we will see who gets the globe", Hofl-Riesch concluded.

Final: Maryland 105, Seattle 76
- Although the stats say otherwise, Pe'Shon Howard was more impressive than Terrell Stoglin. Both looked really good, and they played well together when both were on the floor, but Howard looks like a better and more mature point guard.
- That being said, Stoglin is a great scorer who has a bright future with this program. He is a shooting guard trapped in a point guard's body.
- Some of the freshmen now have nicknames. It seems "Iceman" is the consensus for Hawk Palsson (although "Hawk" is a nickname in the first place), and I second Josh Vitale's nomination for Berend Weijs as "The Great White Height."
- On the topic of Weijs, he has a very specific role on this team. He's a fantastic shot blocker, but can't really do much else yet. That said, he should be the first big man off the bench, because…
- James Padgett doesn't look much improved and Ashton Pankey struggled, mightily, in his first D-1 action. It's even more important for the Terps to bring in a solid big man (or two) in the 2011 class, unless one of these guys can make major strides in his game.
- Mychal Parker is incredibly athletic and incredibly gifted (as shown by that monster late-game dunk), but needs a lot of polish. If anyone can turn him into a star player, it's Gary.
- Ultimately, we're not sure what the rotation will be, or even what the starting lineup will look like. My suggestion? Thanks for asking. Howard at point, Mosley at the two, Tucker on the wing, and Gregory and Williams as the big men. Have Stoglin as the first guard off the bench (sorry, Bowie), and Weijs as the first big man, with Bowie, Hawk, and Parker being a part of the rotation, as well. The Terps showed a lot of different looks last night, from big (Mosley-Parker-Tucker-Gregory-Williams was in at one point, I believe) to small (Howard-Stoglin-Bowie-Tucker-Williams).
- This is gonna be one exciting year.
