This tree is a piece of junk. When I went to put the batteries in (it needs 3 C batteries) the plastic clip broke right off, and I was not handling it roughly. Now the battery pack falls out when it's upright. Also, the light are not that bright or pretty. Definitely not worth $30!see moreof the reviewer's review

The tree arrived shattered in about 200 pieces because of Target's nonexistent protective packaging. Our local Target doesn't carry them so I'm out of luck. I unfortunately don't trust Target's packaging to chance reordering.see moreof the reviewer's review

#Selftalks: The kind I give to myself when I am feeling lazy and distracted
- Things only work for workers
- God does not use lazy people for his glory, so don't waste his investments upon your life
- Let God be the judge of your progress. Let him be the one to tell you when to stop working. Not your friends and not even yourself
- You will not go far in life when you compare yourself with others
- Work! Work!! Work!!! You cannot afford to fail your generation
- Please be informed, dear Ope, that a lot of qualified people are waiting to take your place and you could be easily replaced by them if you do not work hard to deliver excellence
- Your lack of adequate and proper planning will lead you into the dungeon of failure smoothly
- Do not expect to reap where you have not sown
- In all labour there is profit but the talk of the lips tends to penury
- No matter how talented you are, if you do not work very hard, your failure will be raised to power 100000. Invest your comfort into hardwork
- Now that you have the strength invest it wisely and don't spend it sleeping and watching Battle ground or Jenifa's diary
- You have been favored by God to see today Ope, don't take it for granted.
- Focus! Focus!! Focus!!! Clarity brings focus, so focus!
I'll never stop speaking these words to myself until they become life and character in me…

Gubeikou Great Wall
Gubeikou section of the Great Wall is on the north of Tiger Mountain, which has in it an indentation one meter in diameter and 20 cm deep called the Spring of Heaven. The water from this spring flows continuously in both the rainy and fry seasons. Near the spring is a defense tower called the Five Eyes Tower. Unique in design, the body of the tower is made of rectangular stone blocks and the roof of polished bricks. Inside there are two large barrel-vaulted ceilings, three corridors, 10 arched openings and a central octagonal dome supported by four brick columns arranged in a square. The stone columns are decorated with relief carvings of flowers, which add a touch of elegance to this otherwise austere building. Standing atop this tower, one can see the Great Wall winding its way along the contours of the mountains. From this vantage point, the wall appears like a ribbon of jade linking the Wuling Mountain (the highest peak of the Yanshan Range) with the Sleeping Tiger Range near Gubeikou.
Leaving the Five Eyes Tower and proceeding along the wall, one comes to the Tower for Viewing the Capital (Wangjinglou), which sits at a strategic point in Tiger Mouth Peak. The tower commands a panoramic view of the surrounding countryside. Off to the southwest, the mirror-like surface of Miyun Reservoir appears, the outline of Beijing can be seen in the early morning and the city lights become visible at night.
Gubeikou is 125 kilometers away from Beijing proper. It has long been a town of military significance and an important passage to the capital city. The Yanshan Range winds from east to west and is cut off at Gubeikou, forming a natural narrow pass here.
To the west of the pass are the Chaohe River and the Wohu Mountain, and to the east is the Panlong Mountain. From ancient times, Gubeikou has served as a route of strategic importance, linking the southern and northern areas of the YanshanRange. As early as 2,500 years ago, a fortification was built here and was constantly reinforced throughout the following dynasties.
The main part of today's Gubeikou Wall was constructed under the supervision of Xu Da, a noted general in the Ming Dynasty. It runs for more than 20 kilometers and consists of four sections: Wohushan, Panlongshan, Jinshanling, and Simatai. It has 143 beacon towers, each positioned at an average interval of 156 meters. The nearest two are only 30 meters apart. The inside of these towers varies in design. While some have a flat ceiling, others either have an arched ceiling, a domed ceiling, or an octagonal, painted ceiling. Each tower has two floors, six archways, and ten arched doors, allowing garrisoned soldiers to advance and retreat freely. The towers are also different in size. The largest one can accommodate a garrison of 100 soldiers, and the smallest one a garrison of 10 soldiers. The towers often have one to six portholes.

Scientific Approach
SEAMLESS-IF is a generic and flexible framework which is achieved through a modular set-up with stand-alone knowledge components linked and integrated through an advanced software infrastructure. The three main outputs of the project, i.e. the so-called triple I of SEAMLESS (Figure 1) are:
- Integrated framework for impact assessment;
- Infrastructure of software enabling model linkage;
- Individual stand-alone knowledge components (models, data and indicators). This includes existing and newly developed models simulating for instance crop growth, farm behaviour and agricultural markets.
Figure 1. Triple I concept of SEAMLESS with the three main outputs.
Development of SEAMLESS-IF via individual components linked through software infrastructure has clear advantages in terms of maintenance, extensibility, transparency and documentation. The three Is each have value for different types of users, such as the European Commission, international and national policy making agencies and the scientific community.
1. Integrated framework for impact assessment:
SEAMLESS-IF is a framework that allows integrated assessments of agricultural systems at multiple scales (from field, farm, region to EU and global) through linking standalone components and provides analytical capabilities for environmental, economic, social and institutional aspects of agricultural systems (Figure 2). SEAMLESS-IF has been developed as a component-based system and is aimed to facilitate synthesis of scientific knowledge in the domain of agriculture and its environment beyond the specific setting of the project.
- APES (Agricultural Production and Externalities Simulator) is a modular simulation model for calculating agricultural production and the externalities.
- FSSIM (Farm System Simulator) is a farm model for quantifying the integrated agricultural, environmental and socio-economic aspects of farming systems, partly using the output from APES.
- EXPAMOD (Extrapolation Model) is used for up-scaling the outcomes from FSSIM to the European scale.
- CAPRI (Common Agricultural Policy Regional Impact Analysis), an existing model but adapted to SEAMLESS-IF, is a comparative static equilibrium model providing information on price-supply relationships, solved by iterating supply (from EXPAMOD) and market modules, and applied to the agricultural sector of the European Union.
- Other models that simulate landscape change and its visualization, economic change in developing countries, and change in employment in EU rural areas, and do Institutional Compatibility Assessments of policies (i.e. PICA) and Global Trade Analyses (i.e. GTAP model), are also linked to SEAMLESS-IF.

Each Urban Slum in the World is slightly different even though the humanitarian problems are similar. There is lawlessness, poverty, unhealthy conditions, drugs and a sense of despair and huge barriers to upward mobility. Recently our online think tank did a study and came up with a viable plan to fix the Kibera Slum in Nairobi, Kenya.
Now we are developing a "Part II" to the Nairobi Action Plan, actually it involves a modularized set of systems, "a la carte" so to speak, where all the various strategies are available for such things as making brick, cargo container businesses, self-policing, educational training, solar power, sewer treatment, etc.
The follow-up plan is still in progress and it is designed like a "Franchise" type system which would be hooked to funding, aid and grants. The entire system since it is modularized could also be used for future space colonies too. The modularized system can be used anywhere. In other nations the problems are much different, although in a way they are the same. One size does not fit all.
If we created an Organizational Prototype plan for regional variation to fix the urban slum conditions were nearly a billion people currently live in these situations around the globe, we surely would not sell it, we would give it away. Indeed, I have written an article on some of what you describe and pretty much agree, my article has to do with 1-week plan turn-around and a mixing of components or modules, along with funding.
There is no easy way to rid the planet of Urban Slums and thus it will take a good solid plan and a lot of hard work to make the dream a reality, but it can be done. The Online Think Tank believes the answer lie right around the corner and a new tomorrow is on its way.

How do you make a fence dog proof for keeping them in?

I am buying a house that has a fenced in back yard and I have a dog that loves to dig. I do not want her to dig under the fence but also want her to be able to get exercise.I am thinking about getting chicken wire and lay it down next to the fence and staple or other wise attach it to the existing fence and then bury the rest so that is our dog digs she will not be able to dig through the chicken wire. Are there any other ways that you can think of to keep a dog in a fence?

alot of dogs like to dig, maybe provide a small area in your yard where the dog is permited to dig. digging can be a simptom of boardom, try double the amount of exersise you give you dog, take it different places each time. a garden in not the place for exersise, its just an extention of the house, dogs need to roam, dont be lasy about it, if you are realy short of time maybe try a treadmill, 20 to 30 mins a day will help tire the dog so if you do have to leave the dog in your garden it should just wana pee then rest. i hate to see dogs walkin the streets on their own, my friends next door to me have russels that constantly dig or jump the fence to get out, i have never seen their dog go on walks so its no wonder they wana escape!! i hope you are sucsessful with this advice, i know it sounds daft, but try it you may be supprised, gud luk

Hey there oscar, My dog loves to dig too but since most of the time he is in hi cage he can't well for me, i guess i would lay down some cement on the area that she digs on for her to avoid even trying to dig, and you can watch the dog whisperer for help on how to discipline your dog.

If you are ok with digging, perhaps a row or two of brick under the fence might be better than chicken wire. The bricks would make a hard surface that the dog would probably not want to dig into, and they cannot get their paws stuck in brick. Another option would be the invisible fence. You could put that a few inches inside the the fence, and that might keep your dog away from the fence. I am not a fan of electronic correction, but many have used it successfully, and it is better than having the dog escape to the street, where worse things can happen.

THE GOONIES Needs a Prequel Movie Based on The Legendary Pirate One-Eyed Willy!
The Goonies is one of my favorite films of all time. It's such a fun and entertaining adventure movie. It made me want to go out and embark on my own adventures with my friends, and I've had my fair share of crazy adventures!
There's been a lot of talk of a sequel over the past few years for The Goonies and I hope that sequel happens one day. But, there's another Goonies film that I would love to see get made. For years I thought it would be awesome to see a prequel film based on the legendary pirate One-Eyed Willy! I'd actually be more excited to see a film that revolves around that character than a sequel.
One-Eyed Willy is the first Goonie and there's such a wonderful opportunity here to tell his story. We don't know much about the character, but we do know he was a pirate in the year 1632 and he was born with only one eye. At some point, he ended up getting trapped in a cave in Astoria, Oregon with his crew and a vast treasure of jewels and gold on his ship, which was called The Inferno.
Sean Astin's Mikey offered the story of One-Eyed Willy in the scene below:
Here's a summary of the story if you can't watch the video above right now:
One day, Willy and his crew stole a great treasure of gold and jewelry, then they loaded it all up onto his ship, The Inferno and they sailed away into the sunset. Then when word got the British king about the theft, he sent out an entire armada to go after the pirates. Then after a few weeks, they finally found Willy. Then there was a big war between the armada and The Inferno, during the fire fight, there were guns bursting, and cannons blasting, it was massive. Then Willy fled because he knew he'd get killed if he stayed around, and then he and his men got into a cave, and the British blew up the walls all around him. Caving him in. Ever since then, Willy had been there, forever trapped. For 5-6 years, One-Eyed Willy and his pirates had been down there digging tunnels and caves, and setting booby traps so that anybody who tried to get in would die. Then once their job was done, Willy killed all his men so that they wouldn't get to his treasure. Although, it is said that one of the pirates must have gotten out alive, with a map and a key.
Why not tell this story as a movie!? It's such a fun film concept and I'm actually kinda surprised that Spielberg hasn't done this himself! This would make for such an awesome movie! This is a Goonies film that could be made now because you don't have to worry about the logistics of bringing the cast back together and figuring out what to do with them in a story.
I don't know, I think fans of The Goonies would enjoy a pirate film about the first Goonie. The story of One-Eyed Willy is a story that many of us grew up with, it's the story that set the stage for Mikey and his friends' treasure hunting adventure.
You've got the nostalgia factor with an already existing movie and concept, but we also get some new, different and unique pirate movie! There's such an amazing adventurous story to tell here and there's a lot of room for creativity in building that story and the characters that fill it. Someone needs to make this movie happen!
Would you be up for watching a One-Eyed Willy movie?

Food, Wine and Cooking Retreats in Tuscany
Join us in a beautiful and undiscovered corner of Tuscany for an immersive and intimate journey into the finest and most authentic Italian food and drink. Come behind the scenes of Italian gastronomy, and against a stunning Tuscan backdrop spend time with cooks, winemakers, fishermen, olive farmers, cheese producers, gelato masters and much more. See our courses and book with us HERE
Our focus is on personal cooking instruction from an experienced chef and pasta maker, and experiential, authentic tours that go behind the scenes at responsible small-scale producers. We believe in sustainable food and drink production that works in harmony with our environment; we introduce our guests to producers who not only make magnificent food, but who respect nature, innovate with green energy, and put quality and integrity above profit margins.
One half the of the Cook Eat Discover team, Oli, is an experienced chef and trained pasta maker who will walk you through a carefully selected repertoire of dishes and share the secrets and skills you need to create vibrant and authentic Italian cuisine. These cookery lessons will form part of a varied and exciting itinerary of Italian food experiences, including demos, tours and activities. We are passionate about connecting people with the source of their food, emphasising the importance of respecting ingredients and the environment that creates them. Our bespoke tour of the region's producers showcases those who treat food with love and patience, and do things in harmony with nature. See the itinerary section for more information.
We aim to inspire and empower food lovers who are passionate about Italian gastronomy, giving them unique access to the people, stories and time-honoured methods behind the dishes and ingredients.
You will be accommodated in beautiful poolside apartments, high above the southern Tuscan Maremma plain, in the medieval village of Roccatederighi. (Pool open from June to September).
Come and cook, eat and discover with friends and family, or on your own to meet like-minded food lovers. We are waiting for you here in beautiful Tuscany. Book here
The Maremma is the southern most coastal region of Tuscany. While the likes of Siena and Florence are easily accessible from the Maremma, it's a hidden gem that's relatively undiscovered compared to the well beaten tourist trails of central Tuscany. Its incredible natural beauty and medieval hill villages provide an untouched and authentic land perfect for food exploration. Things are done the old ways here, and you will find some of the finest food in the country.
We are based in the beautiful village of Roccatederighi, which is carved into the rocks over 500 metres above the plains. It teeters impossibly above the flatlands and from up here you can see the islands of Giglio, Elba, or even Corsica on a clear day.
Getting Here
On check in and check out days, we provide transport between the nearest major train station, Grosseto, and the apartments. We will pick you up from/drop you off at Grosseto on check in/check out days. At times we have to group guests together into collective pick up times - we generally do two separate pick ups on check in day.
Fast trains get you from Pisa Central to Grosseto in 75 mins, and around 100 minutes from Rome's main city station. If you want to drive to us, we can recommend car hire companies and provide detailed directions. We do not provide private transfers from airports, but we are happy to assist you arranging them. Go to http://www.trenitalia.com/ for train schedules.
The undisturbed wilds of Maremma produce extremely fine ingredients and dishes. Stuffed pasta, cured meats, honey, wild boar, hearty soups and chestnuts are some local specialities. The Maremmana cow is famed around the country for its steaks, the freshest fish and seafood comes out of the nearby Tyrrhenian Sea, while we're blessed with excellent wine, olive oil and cheese producers. Tuscany's other famous gastronomic centres are not far away either - the pecorino of Pienza, the Brunello wine of Montalcino, and the Panforte of Siena.
You will have the opportunity to taste and experience the production of many of these wonderful foods, as well as learning to cook the dishes that will stay with you forever.
Here is what you can expect from our full itinerary 7 day courses.
These are samples, and activities and timings will vary according to various factors like seasonal developments, availability and weather. There may be special events and festivals, for example that will feature at different times of the year, while other activities may become less enjoyable or relevant at others.
The 4 day special courses are compressed versions of the below with a focus on certain products or skills e.g pasta making or cheese and wine producers. Go to the individual 4 day holidays in the courses section for specific itinerary information.
We can also discuss providing bespoke itineraries and courses for certain interests, corporate trips or special occasions.

Booty, USC punish Arizona St. 44-24
QB tosses four TD passes as Trojans remain in Rose Bowl hunt
TEMPE, ARIZ. — Despite two losses, Southern California still believes it is one of the nation's best teams.
The Trojans looked like it on Thursday night.
John David Booty threw for 375 yards and matched a career high with four touchdown passes as the 11th-ranked Trojans blitzed No. 7 Arizona State 44-24, reviving their bid for an unprecedented sixth straight Pac-10 title and a trip to the Rose Bowl.
"This was a really, really sweet win," USC coach Pete Carroll said. "I think it's a great statement for our guys. They know now what we're capable of doing."
The Rose Bowl seemed an unlikely destination after then-No. 2 USC, a 41-point favorite, lost 24-23 to the Stanford on Oct. 6 in one of college football's biggest stunners. But now the talented Trojans are rolling again.
"People kind of counted us out, especially with the early loss to Stanford," said Booty, who also ran for a 1-yard score. "We know what we're all about."
Southern California (9-2, 6-2 Pac-10) will win the Pac-10 if it beats UCLA on Dec. 1 and Oregon loses to UCLA or Oregon State.
The Trojans needed no help in dismantling the Sun Devils (9-2, 6-2).
USC's defense overwhelmed Arizona State, sacking Rudy Carpenter six times and briefly knocking him out of the game with a cut lip. Defensive end Lawrence Jackson had four sacks, most in a game by a Trojans player since 1989.

|Damn my crappy scanner! The original looks so much better! ;_; Anyway, here are 2 lolita-gothic girls! They're not really striking a pose or anything, but I just wanted to concentrate on the clothes ^_^
|2004-03-03 21:43:39
|Yeah you're right, the scanner messed it up a bit, but it's still a great drawing!
|2004-03-04 22:00:52
|Very cute and great outfits, did you use any reference pictures for them, or are they originals? For scanning, I'd suggest scanning it in 'greyscale' (which has 256 shades of grey) instead of 'lineart' (which only has black and white) and then saving it as a .gif (or perhaps a .jpg) and not as a bmp-file. That'll improve the quality.

A public-private agreement has managed to preserve the habitat of a threatened species while accommodating hunting, fishing, ranching, and energy development. Interior Secretary Zinke says he's revisiting the agreement. That could lead to the sage grouse qualifying as "endangered," which would mean a far less flexible approach to conservation. "The sage grouse initiative, the collaboration, up to now it's been working," said O'Toole, owner of Ladder Ranch along the Wyoming and Colorado border."It's the collaboration that's the key. Everybody involved has been trying to prevent the whole sage grouse effort from the conflict and litigation that could from a listing" of the bird as an endangered species.The sage grouse team involves ranchers along with the Bureau of Land Management, U. S. Forest Service, U. S. Department of Agriculture, state agencies and non-governmental partners. The success of the collaboration, including its public-private partnership, led to the 2015 decision to invest in this approach rather than list the sage grouse as endangered under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). Listing the grouse as endangered would trigger a more stringent set of regulations that limit landowner and public agency choices and could trigger litigation.
Now a harsh ruling by the Washington State Supreme Court in Hirst v. Whatcom County, blocks access to water for rural families — making that life unaffordable and simply impossible for the average Washington citizen. Declaring that counties can no longer rely on the Washington State Department of Ecology to determine if there is enough water for permit-exempt wells, the court brought the state's Growth Management Act into conflict with 80 years of water law. Supporters of Hirst argue the court's strict new interpretation helps salmon. However, that is just a political disguise for the underlying motivation of impeding development and stopping families from being able to live in rural areas.Permit-exempt wells were designed to decrease bureaucratic red tape for a de minimums (minimal) amount of water, in the form of 5,000 gallons per day. Supporters of the Hirst ruling say families should not be given access to this water without getting a special, and expensive, permit.The result is an effective ban, even though permit-exempt wells use far less than the permitted 5,000 gallons a day. In fact, all the rural wells in a large area have less of an effect on the natural water supply than one concentrated city-run water system.The cumulative effect of all permit-exempt wells on the total water supply amounts to less than 1 percent. Supporters of the water ban want to block access to a paltry 0.9 percent of total water consumption, and make all citizens in Washington bear the cost.What is the cost all of Washington must bear? Existing homeowners reap a windfall, since they already have wells without a permit. For people without water, however, their land has become nearly worthless. Few families can spend up to $100,000 or more for the hydrogeological studies needed to get a permit-exempt well or pay for expensive water transfers. The result is slowed rural development, decreased property tax revenues for rural communities, and lower employment rates in rural areas.
Virginia has long been coal country, but the solar power industry has been increasing its foothold in the Commonwealth over the last few years. Virginia now has more jobs in the solar industry than the coal industry. Numbers from the Virginia Department of Mines, Minerals and Energy show a 40% drop in the number of people working in the coal industry over the last five years. Henry Childress with the Virginia Coal and Energy Alliance says coal produces more energy with fewer employees.For now, though, the solar industry has more employees in Virginia than the coal industry. That's a dramatic shift for a state that has a long history with coal. Alexander Winn at the Solar Foundation says he's hopeful some of those jobs might move from coal to solar."There are efforts to retrain some coal workers, and hopefully those will continue to grow as solar becomes an increasingly large employment sector in the Virginia energy industry."Most solar energy jobs are in installation, construction and manufacturing. Numbers from the Solar Foundation show that the industry grew by about 65% over the last year alone.
It has been remarkable how quickly the "buzz" about rural voters and their electoral impact has faded. Many Main Street advocates, myself included, predicted the super-majority of rural voters who carried Donald Trump to victory would prompt a policy spotlight that would shine brightly on small towns and rural spaces. After all, without rural voters there would be no President Donald Trump.Then, the incoming administration waited until the day before the inauguration to announce an Agriculture secretary-nominee. Earlier, a biofuels skeptic was nominated to run the EPA, which oversees the Renewable Fuel Standard.Now, to add insult to injury, Trump has proposed $29 billion in cuts to crop insurance that create a yuge (huge) hole in the producer safety net! This will leave farmers without options in bad crop years caused by changing weather. All the while, eliminating locally led conservation efforts on farms and ranches and limiting programs that provide hunting and fishing opportunities on private lands.Trump Republican cuts to agriculture and rural economic development programs will eliminate rural business programs that have supported more than 800,000 jobs in the last eight years. He proposes ending rural energy programs that help small businesses on Main Street save on energy costs — and that's before the proposed cuts to Medicaid under Trumpcare-AHCA.
Oregon's Legislature took a step closer Tuesday to strengthening its unique sanctuary-state status, with the House passing a bill that would bar state and local agencies from asking about a person's immigration status and from disclosing information to federal officials, except in certain circumstances. The bill, introduced at the request of Gov. Kate Brown and Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum, both Democrats, has sharply divided lawmakers along party lines in the Democrat-controlled Legislature.Oregon became America's first, and so far only, sanctuary state in 1987 with a law preventing law enforcement from detaining people who are in the United States illegally but have not broken other laws. In February, Brown ordered all state agencies to follow it. Massachusetts lawmakers are considering a bill that would create another sanctuary state.A federal judge has blocked, at least temporarily, an executive order issued by Trump to cut funding to sanctuary cities that refuse to cooperate with federal immigration agents.
Migrant workers arrive here every spring to work in the "muck," which is what everybody calls the fertile soil that makes this part of Ohio the perfect place to grow radishes, peppers, cucumbers and leafy greens. The temporary workers can be seen planting, weeding and, later in the season, harvesting crops that will be sold at national supermarket chains. But there's trouble in the muck this growing season. "Without the Hispanic labor force, we wouldn't be able to grow crops," said Ben Wiers, a great-grandson of the pioneer Henry Wiers, who bought five acres here in 1896, noting that he considers many workers at Wiers Farms, which cultivates more than 1,000 acres of produce under the Dutch Maid label, to be friends.But beefed-up border enforcement has slowed the flow of workers who enter the country illegally. Last year, a shortage forced Mr. Wiers and the other growers to leave millions of dollars' worth of produce in the fields. This year could be worse. The Trump administration has encouraged local law enforcement across the country to help identify deportable individuals for the federal authorities, making long-distance travel risky for those already in the country without legal status."It's not a hospitable climate," lamented Mr. Wiers, who joined other farmers in discussing their concerns recently with Representative Jim Jordan, Republican of Ohio.
The state's emerging opioid crisis may be partly to blame for the workforce shortages stymieing local efforts to attract new jobs. This was one of the revelations from the second meeting of the state's new House Rural Development Council, which met recently in Toccoa. The group of legislators is tasked with identifying potential policy fixes for the economic challenges facing the rural Georgia. "We have a drug problem in Stephens County, and it's a big one and it does impact the labor force," Barry Roberts, director of operations for ASI Southeast, told legislators Friday during a meeting that was livestreamed. ASI Southeast employs more than 400 people, making it the largest private employer in the county that sits on the South Carolina border. The company, which makes steel and polymer products used in commercial restrooms, has invested $50 million in Georgia in the last decade, Roberts said. "We want to stay here. We want to thrive here," Roberts said. "But we do feel like there are some obstacles in the way right now." The substance-abuse problem, which manifests itself at ASI Southeast as failed drug tests, is one issue that "needs to be on your radar," he told state lawmakers. It's not a problem unique to the northeast Georgia community, though. Chris Clark, president and CEO of the Georgia Chamber of Commerce, said the chamber is monitoring the growing statewide impact of the opioid crisis.
The number of people living in nonmetro counties declined by nearly 21,000 (-0.05 percent) between July 2015 and July 2016, continuing 6 years of modest population losses. Although many individual nonmetro counties have shown population losses for decades, this is the first period of overall nonmetro population decline. ERS tracks demographic change in nonmetro areas and conducts research to help explain the relationship between population change and the socioeconomic well-being of rural and small-town residents. The total population in nonmetro counties stood at 46.1 million in July 2016—14 percent of U.S. residents spread across 72 percent of the Nation's land area. Annual population losses averaged 43,000 per year between 2011 and 2015, but dropped to 21,000 in 2016.Population change varies widely across rural and small-town America (see map). A record 1,350 nonmetro counties have lost population since 2010, as a group declining by 790,000 people. At the same time, nonmetro counties that gained population added 598,000 residents.Nonmetro population growth from net migration peaked in 2006, then declined precipitously and shifted geographically in response to rising unemployment, housing-market challenges, energy-sector developments, and other factors. Suburban expansion and migration to scenic, retirement/recreation destinations were primary drivers of rural demographic change for several decades, but for the time-being, their influence has considerably weakened. Population growth rates in nonmetro areas have been significantly lower than in metro areas since the mid-1990s, and the gap widened considerably in recent years. While annual rates of population change in nonmetro areas went from 0.7 percent to below zero between 2006 and 2016, metro rates declined only slightly, from 1 percent to 0.8 percent.
The grasslands of U.S. Great Plains have seen one of the sharpest increases in large and dangerous wildfires in the past three decades, with their numbers more than tripling between 1985 and 2014, according to new research.The new study, published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters, found that the average number of large Great Plains wildfires each year grew from about 33 to 117 over that time period, even as the area of land burned in these wildfires increased by 400 percent."This is undocumented and unexpected for this region," said Victoria Donovan, the lead author of the study and a researcher at the University of Nebraska at Lincoln. "Most studies do document these shifts in large wildfires in forested areas, and this is one of the first that documents a shift, at this scale, in an area characterized as a grassland."Donovan published the study with two university colleagues. The research looked at large wildfires, defined as fires around 1,000 acres or more in size. 2011 saw a particularly large surge of Great Plains wildfires, which accounted for half of the total acreage burned in the United States that year.By specific region, some of the largest wildfire increases occurred in the Cross Timbers region of Texas and Oklahoma (which saw a 2,200 percent increase in the total area burned), the Edwards Plateau of Texas (a 3,300 percent increase), and the Central Irregular Plains, encompassing parts of Iowa and northern Missouri, as well as parts of Kansas and Oklahoma (1,400 percent increase).
There's a question about who should investigate when Oregon wolves devour livestock. A "depredation," as it's called in wildlife management-speak. The Oregon Department of Fish Wildlife says it could use some help. Cattle ranchers would like to see properly certified local groups involved, to speed up the process. Depredation investigations are important because wolves involved in enough of them can end up dead. "Lethal control," is the polite term. Oregon State Police say no thanks. The OSP Wildlife Division head, Capt. Jeff Samuels, said his game officers would need eight hours of training each, about 1,000 hours total. That's expensive. Another issue: Does the burden of Oregon's wolf management approach weigh too heavily on private landowners? People in Northeast Oregon, especially in Wallowa County and especially cattle ranchers, would say of course. Russ Morgan, ODFW wolf program manager, said 74 percent of confirmed wolf depredations occur on private land. Michael Finley, the ODFW Commission chair, raised the question. He said it's a dichotomy: Private land with private expectations, and a public resource — wolves — is doing damage and costing owners money.He wondered out loud whether wolves on private or property ought to be managed differently. For example, require only two confirmed depredations on private land instead of three, the uniform private-public standard. It's complicated because Oregon land is about 50-50 public and private, often butting up against each other. Wolves go where they want and ranchers use both, because grazing is a permitted activity on land managed by the BLM and Forest Service.Todd Nash, a Wallowa County commissioner who is wolf committee chair for the Oregon Cattlemen's Association, agreed property lines are intermixed and sometimes unfenced. But he said cattle are private property, and ranchers wouldn't allow someone to rustle their cattle, for instance, no matter where they were grazing. Insert eat for rustle and the point is made.

Belfast: Man dies after collapsing at marathon
A man in his 50s has died after he collapsed during the Belfast marathon on Monday.
It happened at 9.55 BST in the early stages of the event at the Sydenham bypass, five miles into the race.
The event's organisers said two ambulances were quickly at the scene to take the man to the Royal Victoria Hospital.
It's understood it was the man's first marathon, although he was a regular runner.
Two senior members of the marathon organising team went to the hospital to offer support and condolences to the man's family.
They have requested privacy.
A post-mortem examination is due to be carried out later, a police spokesperson said.
The man was among 17,000 runners taking part in the 37th annual Belfast City Marathon.
Kenyan runner Eric Koech won the race.
Former Belfast Lord Mayor Alderman Brian Kingston told the BBC that the runner's death was "terrible news, very sad news indeed".
He, himself, is a marathon runner.
"It's a day all about fitness, achievement, about people wanting to push themselves that bit extra, to achieve a great physical feat," he said.
"That a man has died is the worst possible news."
He said a fatality was "a rare event" and had not happened at the Belfast marathon for nearly 30 years.
"This very much overshadows everything that has happened on the day and everyone will want to convey condolences to the family," he said.
In April, MasterChef finalist Matt Campbell, 29, collapsed at the London marathon and died in hospital.
He had reached the 22.5 mile mark and had been running in memory of his late father.
Hundreds of runners later "finished the race" in his honour. His aim had been to raise £2,500 for the Brathay Trust, but more than £350,000 has been donated since he died.
