Die Ahrenkiel-Gruppe ist ein 1950 gegründetes Schifffahrtsunternehmen mit Sitz in Hamburg.

Unternehmen
Die Hauptgeschäftsfelder der Ahrenkiel-Gruppe waren Schiffseigner und Reederei sowie Logistik und Finanzierung. Rund 200 Mitarbeiter waren an den Standorten Hamburg und Bern sowie weiteren Büros auf Zypern und in Asien beschäftigt. Hinzu kamen 1500 Seeleute auf den Schiffen der Flotte. Das Unternehmen betreibt Befrachtung, Besatzungs- und technisches Schiffsmanagement für eigene Schiffe und im Auftrag Dritter. Ahrenkiel betreibt die Emission von Schiffs- und Immobilienbeteiligungen und übernimmt Bauaufsichten bei Schiffsneubauten. Die Logistikabteilung bearbeitet Chemikalien- und Holztransporte.

Im Mai 2011 umfasste die Ahrenkiel-Flotte 49 Schiffe mit einer Gesamttragfähigkeit von gut 1,7 Millionen Tonnen und bestand aus über 25 Containerschiffen, sechs Chemikalien-, acht Produkten-, einem Öl- sowie einem Gastanker und acht Massengutfrachtern. Das Durchschnittsalter der Schiffe lag unter acht Jahren. Im März 2014 verfügte die Reederei noch über 26 Schiffe.

Geschichte
1950 gründete Christian Friedrich Ahrenkiel in Hamburg die gleichnamige Reederei "Christian F. Ahrenkiel" und kaufte den damals 21 Jahre alten Dampfer Alpha. Bald darauf arbeitete die Reederei mit der Mamemic Line zusammen und beteiligte sich an der Hamburg-Chicago-Linie. Der erste Ahrenkiel-Neubau war das 1955 bei der Lübecker Flender-Werft gebaute 5200-Tonnen-Stückgutschiff Esperanza. Im Jahr 1961 begann die Reederei mit einem Massengutfrachter mit herausnehmbaren Hängedecks den Autotransport über See. Die beiden Neubauten Rhein Express und Main Express waren 1971 der Startpunkt in der Containerschifffahrt. Im gleichen Jahr wurde die Tankreederei "Ahrenkiel GmbH" gegründet und der erste Chemikalientanker unter Ahrenkiel-Management in Fahrt gebracht. Nach der Eröffnung des Büros auf Zypern im Jahr 1974 begann die Reederei 1977 erstmals Kühlschiffe zu betreiben. Im Jahr 1982 wurde mit dem Ahrenkiel Liner Service ein Liniendienst zwischen Japan, Asien und Südafrika aufgenommen, der 1992 um die New Zealand Orient Line (NZOL) erweitert wurde. Diese fusionierte 1999 mit der Tasman Asia zur Tasman Orient Line; an letzterer hielt Ahrenkiel bis März 2009 Anteile. Christian F. Ahrenkiel starb 1993, worauf sein Sohn Christian J. Ahrenkiel die Führung des Unternehmens übernahm, das er seit 1997 als alleiniger Inhaber und Vorsitzender leitet.

Das Unternehmen begann 2001 den Geschäftsbereich der Schiffsfinanzierung und die Emission von Schiffsbeteiligungen mit Gründung des 'Fondshaus Hamburg' und der 'Fondshaus Treuhand', von der es sich im Oktober 2015 trennte. Die Unternehmensgruppe gründete 2006 die Christian J. Ahrenkiel & Co. Holding und die Ahrenkiel Consulting Services in Bern, von der aus unter anderem Teile der Flotte bereedert werden. Im Jahr darauf folgte die Gründung der Suisse Outremer Ahrenkiel & Co., die Operation und technisches Management eines Teils der Flotte übernahm.

Im Zuge der 2008 einsetzenden Schifffahrtskrise geriet das Unternehmen in eine starke finanzielle Schieflage und stand im August 2013 zum Verkauf. Zum 1. April 2014 übernahm die MPC-Gruppe Ahrenkiel zusammen mit der Reederei Thien & Heyenga mit Sitz in Hamburg. Der Betrieb der beiden übernommenen Unternehmen wird gemeinsam unter dem neuen Namen Ahrenkiel Steamship zusammengeführt.

Am 21. Juli 2020 übernahm Wilh. Wilhelmsen einen 50-prozentigen Anteil an Ahrenkiel Steamship.

Our region is one of the most industrialized and attractive regions in north-west Russia. At the heart of this appeal are the richest natural resources of the Kola peninsula surrounded by the sea, the Western Arctic Shelf wealth, and the opportunities of transit through the Northern Sea Route.
The main tasks of the regional government in terms of attracting investment are the following: to ensure the implementation of major projects that increase employment,. tp increase the flow of tax revenues to the budget of the region, to increase the share of industries with high added value, to stimulate the development of small and medium-sized businesses and ultimately, to improve the level of income and quality of life for Northerners.
After all, our main wealth is people -- persistent, active, and in love with the Kola Polar Region!

War at Sea >
David Beatty
Chronology >
David Beatty was born in Nantwich, Cheshire, in 1871. He entered the Royal Navy in 1884 and served in the Sudan (1896-98). As a commander of a battleship he took part in the China War (1900). During this period Beatty developed a reputation for dash and aggression. By 1912 Beatty was commander of the 1st Battlecruiser Squadron.
Admiral Sir John Jellicoe, Commander of the Grand Fleet, was concerned about Beatty's aggressive tactics and feared that he would lead the Battlecruiser Squadron into a German trap. However, his tactical boldness achieved success at Heligoland Blight (August, 1914) and Dogger Bank (January, 1915). However, Beatty's willingness to engage a superior enemy force proved expensive at the Battle of Jutland (May, 1916).
When Sir John Jellicoe was criticised for his defensive attitude towards sea warfare after Jutland, Beatty was considered his natural replacement. His promotion over the heads of eight more senior admirals created some internal resentment. When Sir David Beatty became Commander of the Grand Fleet in late 1916 he disappointed many of his supporters by following the same policy as Jellicoe. Like the previous commander, Beatty believed that the main priority was the preservation of the Dreadnoughts and was unwilling to seek a major confrontation with the German Navy. However, unlike Jellicoe, Beatty did give support to David Lloyd George and his desire for the introduction of convoys in the Battle of the Atlantic.
Admiral Beatty became First Sea Lord in 1919 and held the post until his retirement in 1927. Granted a peerage, Earl David Beatty died in 1936.
The Rules of the Game

redpajama_set_name: RedPajamaCommonCrawl


In this project I was able to explore my ideas around art and specifically portraiture having a talismanic role in a subject's life. The content and composition of the piece was inspired by symbols in the subject's natal astrology and tarot, personal artefacts that hold deep meaning and inspiration for him, esoteric healing symbols and representation of an ethereal atmosphere. My philosophy is that because the fundamental spiritual movement of human culture appears to be toward self knowledge, self revelation and enlightenment-ultimately self united with the divine- that portraiture and particularly commissioned self portraiture is a natural support. In the hands of a spiritually conscious artist, one who is aware of the capacity for art to be a channel for healing energies the artwork can become an intimate sacred object or a focal point for meditation. The portrait may be seen as kind of "vision board" for experiencing higher self consciousness, self reflection and revelation and finally affect healing on a quantum level.

Professor of Particle Physics and Astrophysics and of Physics
BioWhat were the first objects that formed in the Universe? Prof. Abel's group explores the first billion years of cosmic history using ab initio supercomputer calculations. He has shown from first principles that the very first luminous objects are very massive stars and has developed novel numerical algorithms using adaptive-mesh-refinement simulations that capture over 14 orders of magnitude in length and time scales. He currently continues his work on the first stars and first galaxies and their role in chemical enrichment and cosmological reionization. His group studies any of the first objects to form in the universe: first stars, first supernovae, first HII regions, first magnetic fields, first heavy elements, and so on. Most recently he is pioneering novel numerical algorithms to study collisionless fluids such as dark matter which makes up most of the mass in the Universe as well as astrophysical and terrestrial plasmas. He was the director of the Kavli Institute for Particle Astrophysics and Cosmology and Division Director at SLAC 2013-2018.

Frank Abild-Pedersen
Senior Scientist, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
BioDr. Abild-Pedersen is the co-director of SUNCAT Center for Interface Science and Catalysis. He is leading a research team that focuses on developing an understanding of the factors determining the catalytic properties at the interface between gas/solvent and solid surfaces and to apply these insights to processes and catalysts of importance for energy transformations and for sustainable chemical production. His research takes advantage of computer facilities at SLAC and Stanford to gain the necessary understanding and to link these simulations to experiments where new catalyst synthesis methods are developed, and the catalyst materials are characterized both in terms of performance (activity, selectivity, durability, etc.) and in terms of geometrical and electronic structure. The underlying philosophy of his research is that by having a fundamental understanding of the way surfaces catalyze a chemical reaction we can make a quantum leap in our ability to make predictions for new catalysts and processes. This requires the development of a theory of heterogeneous catalysis, including electrocatalysis, based on computational and experimental results.
Dr Abild-Pedersen has extensive experience with simulations and modeling of chemical reactions. His work began with the derivation of energy correlations in catalysis that have helped speed up screening for active, selective and stable catalysts for energy conversion as a graduate student working with Professor Jens K. Nørskov at the Technical University of Denmark. He moved to SLAC in 2010 as a staff scientist and helped build up SUNCAT and define research directions in the field of heterogeneous catalysis.

Heras-Casado leads the SF Symphony on a fantasy travelogue through Spain
Joshua KosmanOctober 19, 2018Updated: October 22, 2018, 11:01 am
Conductor Pablo Heras-Casado Photo: Dario Acosta
For French composers of a certain era and frame of mind, the Pyrenees represented a kind of fairy-tale boundary. On their side of the border, to the north, lay the humdrum world of everyday life; but to the south lay the magical realm of Spain, a world of enchanted moonlit gardens, sinuous dances and plenty of sexytime.
The fact that many of the musical evocations of Spain by Debussy, Ravel and their compatriots boast a certain vein of tongue-in-cheek self-awareness only adds to their charm. The San Francisco Symphony's concert program this week under guest conductor Pablo Heras-Casado, presented in Davies Symphony Hall on Thursday, Oct. 18, brought out the evocative delights as well as the faint whiff of self-parody in these pieces.
Ravel's brief orchestral sketch "Alborada del gracioso," with its strumming guitars and clacking castanets, made an entertaining opener, setting up the more serious but still puckish strains of Debussy's three-part tone poem "Ibéria" after intermission. And although Ravel's "Boléro," which closed the evening in a long sustained crescendo, may not have Spain literally on its mind, the music's fluent, sinuous melody and crisp march rhythms are very much of a piece with other Iberian-Arabic mashups.
None of this is to suggest that either the orchestra or Heras-Casado himself were in top form on Thursday. Over and above the gentle scrim of fantasy through which images of Spain emerged, there was also general air of vagueness in the musical execution – soggy instrumental textures, prominently flubbed notes, rhythms configured more approximately than one would wish.
In the "Alborada," Heras-Casado elicited wonderfully filmy instrumental colors from the orchestra, especially in the piece's bemused central section. But he also allowed that wispiness to bleed into the music's rhythmic structure, softening the foundations like the gravy in a pot pie.
And although "Boléro" was anchored throughout by the Olympian work of principal percussionist Jacob Nissly, who sustained a steady rat-a-tat on the snare drum while slowly ratcheting up the volume, there was not always a sense that the disparate sections of this repetitive masterpiece were fully integrated.
One soloist after another would take a moment in the spotlight, then toss the baton (figuratively) to a colleague who would grab at it with a vaguely startled air. Not until the final few minutes of the performance did the piece gather its full helping of momentum.
The one exception to the evening's Spanish theme was the inclusion of Bartók's Piano Concerto No. 3 – unless you consider that the soloist, Javier Perianes is, like Heras-Casado, Spanish (and made his 2015 Symphony debut in Falla's "Nights in the Gardens of Spain").
For anyone familiar with Bartók's first two piano concertos, the Third – his final work, left just a few measures short of completion at his death in 1945 – always comes as a shock. In place of percussive keyboard explosions and angular dissonances, the music is lovely and ingratiating, with a bright brittle palette in the opening movement and a stately, spiritual chorale serving as the central slow movement.
Perianes caught the music's blend of gentility and directness perfectly, in a reading of delicacy and strength. His encore, even more exquisite, was a gorgeously shaded account of Chopin's Mazurka in A Minor, Op. 17, No. 4.
San Francisco Symphony: 8 p.m. Friday-Saturday, Oct. 19-20. $35-$185. Davies Symphony Hall, 201 Van Ness Ave., S.F. 415-864-6000. www.sfsymphony.org.

APMEX, the nation's largest Precious Metals e-retailer, is pleased to announce the release of certified Dutch Lion Dollars. These coins from PCGS and NGC follow the initial launch of the Dutch Lion Dollar Restrikes, which were immediately popular upon release.
The design on the Dutch lion daalder, featuring a rampant lion and a knight displaying the lesser version of the Dutch coat of arms, was first seen in 1617. These coins circulated into the mid-1800s, making this design extremely widespread throughout the Netherlands. The Royal Dutch Mint celebrated this design's 400th anniversary by releasing a .999 fine Silver version and a .9999 fine Proof Silver version.
With a design that has stood the test of time, and with high Silver content, the Dutch Lion Dollar Restrike can now also be considered a quality collectible, being graded by PCGS and NGC. All certified coins feature exceptional, custom labels that add to the brilliance of the design.
Dutch Lion Dollars graded by NGC will come with a unique label that features the rampant lion, mirroring the long-standing design on the coin itself. The background of the label shows a faint map outline, adding interest and intrigue to the design.
PCGS partnered with APMEX for their certified Dutch Silver Dollars, creating an exclusive label paying homage to the Netherlands by incorporating a windmill into a modern design of a tulip, two images closely associated with the Dutch.
The Dutch Lion image is one of the longest-running coin designs in history. These bullion versions make it easy to own iconic visuals while combining Silver value with collectible appeal. Shop all Dutch Lion Dollar Restrikes now available at APMEX.


An interview with Andrew Heinlein, who had just completed a year as a student manager for the men's basketball team at Santa Rosa Junior College under Coach Craig McMillan, a former University of Arizona guard who reached the Final Four in 1988 as a player on a team that included his backcourt partner Steve Kerr, along with Sean Elliott, Tom Tolbert, and future MLB star Kenny Lofton.
Heinlein: Getting my student manager position was quite challenging. I emailed my coach, Craig McMillan. Then we had two phone interviews, which led to the opportunity for an in-person interview. After I proved myself in the interviews, I was invited to go to practice. Through the first two weeks, I didn't do anything, and I was strictly there to show my dedication, which is critically important in landing a role with the team. After finally proving myself in the interviews and practice I was introduced to the team as the student manager.
Heinlein: As a student manager, my most important responsibilities were handling game tapes for our team and for scouting other teams, managing our youth basketball camp, and being involved in practice. In practice I was in charge of small tasks such as having the balls ready to go, taking care of the scoreboard, rebounding for players, and even simply having water ready for the players. I was also in charge of more critical aspects in practice as the coaches began to trust me, such as coaching teams in our smaller four-on-four games and also demonstrating how to shoot in our offensive drills.
Did Your Role Evolve During the Season?
Heinlein: At the very beginning of the season I was strictly in charge of stats and the scoreboard. Neither the coaches nor the players knew who I was, so I had to start by proving myself and earning their respect. After beginning to prove myself, I participated more in practice, scouted other teams, and even sat in on coaches' meetings. My role evolved from there, as I got to go with the team to weekend tournaments and even occasionally voice my ideas for possibly improving our team. These accomplishments did not come easy; I had to be extremely patient, work beyond expectations, and put in long hours simply for the love of the game.
Heinlein: As a student manager, I learned a few very important lessons. The first is that there is no off day. I was often in charge of tasks the coaches didn't have time to deal with or simply didn't want to deal with. It means that you have to be ready at any point – a coach might call you on a Sunday afternoon and give you an assignment that has to be done by Monday. I had times where I had to analyze game tape at 8:30 at night on a Sunday and have it ready for the coaches to easily critique players the next morning at 8:00.
Another important lesson I learned was to work way beyond what people expect of you. The best way to earn the respect of others is to do more than expected and complete every task as soon as you possibly can.
Heinlein: My favorite part of the position was the competitiveness in practice, learning from some brilliant minds about the game of basketball, and learning the little things that go on behind the scenes of a basketball program. It was an excellent opportunity to see the business side of the sport. Through this job I was able to see how much effort it took to keep all of the players happy throughout the season. I also appreciated that the coaches got just as fired up as the players did in practice and it was exciting to be a part of that competitive spirit.
I am extremely grateful I was able to get the team manager position.
Thanks to Andrew Heinlein for taking the time to share his experiences as a student manager.

A personal journey through the lower leagues – Seasons 2012-13 and 2013-14
Rangers fans – based on what I've heard and read – have very mixed feelings and views about the "journey". A recovery through the lower leagues that opened with a scrappy last minute equaliser in Peterhead and came to a conclusion with a conceded last minute equaliser at St. Mirren Park.
By the time of the latter equaliser– thankfully -it was a clear that a particular milestone had been reached. The passing through the lower divisions may have reached its conclusion a few weeks earlier, but that passage has been bumpy and fraught. A delay of 12 months some might feel, but I am tempted to think of it as better to arrive late than to arrive ugly.
This personal account of the journey is more of a rollercoaster ride for me. From the "close the eyes, let's just get through this" to the almost despairing "I can't take much more of this" to the exhilaration of "wow did we just do that". All of those emotions featured in my own rollercoaster ride through the lower tiers.
My personal journey features many fewer games than other Bears. Many more of you travelled further and endured it more. My cap is doffed in your direction a million times over. You truly follow follow.
This rollercoaster ride has allowed me to meet and talk to some very fine people, who all happen to support the football team that to me, my Dad and thousands of other Bears, have always been and will always be the Rangers. We are back and we are going for 55. The Stratosphere awaits for our next journey.
Season 2012-13: The Black Hole
The Black Hole was a rollercoaster at Alton Towers until about 2005. Believe or not it operated briefly as "New Black Hole", even "Black Hole II" before reverting to the original Black Hole from around 1989 until its eventual demise. Throughout these changes it was still the same Black Hole. Never a particularly exciting rollercoaster, but it clearly experienced its ups and down.
That sums up for me Season 1 under the Green regime. A big black hole which has still to fully give up its secrets.
5 January 2013 – Rangers 1 – 1 Elgin
My first viewing of Lewis McLeod. A pleasant first half goal that should have been the catalyst for a few more before and after the spectacle of watching the Elgin City officials participate in the Loving Cup Ceremony on the big screens. A second half of the increasingly familiar huffing and puffing that ended with an equaliser through the alarmingly inevitable slack defending and Neil Alexander fumble.
12 January 2013 – Rangers 4 – 2 Berwick Rangers
Another Ibrox trip. Andy Little scores a hat-trick, but not before the wee Gers made a fist of it by clawing things backs to 3-2. Jittery is the only word for it. And Sandaza. The only Rangers striker I can recall capable of a standing ovation for a mazy run towards goal and not actually appearing to touch the ball. Fran didn't have the best of times as a Ger, but I do recall fondly his effort and capacity to intrigue in this game at least. Within a few months he would be gone down another Charles Green black hole, but he did manage to resurface somewhere in deepest Romania.
7 April 2013 – Queens Park 1 – 4 Rangers
April brought a family trip to the national stadium and a chance to see the new Champions. Milestone 1 had been completed the previous week where a nil nil away to Montrose had proved enough. Yes a nil nil away to Montrose. Some decent goals were scored that day at Hampden and we all wondered if this was that start of something for the young Kane Hemmings. Hindsight would show it was – just not at Rangers.
April brought the departure of Charles Green CEO and he probably wishes he had disappeared down his own Black Hole.
The first season of the journey was entirely about survival. A W 25 D 8 L 3 record won us this league by a 24 point margin, but none of us were fooled. That's how bad we were.
Season 2013-14 we pleaded to ourselves would be about the football.
Season 2013-14: The Nemesis
More than 50 million people have apparently ridden the Nemesis rollercoaster – another Alton Towers favourite. For every Nemesis rider there are 10 Rangers fans worldwide is something Charles Green would probably have claimed.
This was the season that the Board room instability and dysfunction really came to the fore and it was never going to go away. Graham Wallace arrived in November 2013 with a fair reputation, soothing words of business speak and apparently a 120 day plan. But all that was trumped by the nemises of rumour, doubt, lies, 7am Stock Market announcements and onerous contracts.
Wallace's review did at least manage to put a number to the Black Hole. £70 million or so.
13 July 2013 Bristol City 0 – 1 Rangers
The great joy of journeys is really to be found in the people you meet and the friends you make. And a pre-season friendly in Bristol offered scorching sunshine and the company of 2,500 travelling Bears. This is one I remember well and reminded me of the lengths that fellow Bears will go to follow follow the Rangers. Peter and the rest of you I saluted you this day and it wasn't to be the last time I would.
The game itself didn't really tell us much about McCoist's clutch of new recruits but we were sent home happy and sunburnt as probably the only ever victors of the Blackthorn Cup. Bilel Mohsni was a trialist this day and somehow persuaded most of us he was worth a punt.
10th August 2013 Rangers 4 – 1 Brechin City
The big experienced wheels were already off the 2013-14 battle bus by the week before my first league game of this season. Restricted by the soon to be over SFA imposed transfer ban, Forfar rather too comfortably put paid to our participation in the League Cup before the league season kick off. In 2011, the 3rd of August had heralded a fateful Champions League exit in 2011 at the hands of Malmo. In 2013, it was Forfar and big Marv dishing out a different kind of pain.
Holidays north of the border did, however, allow that unease to be put aside as we opened up against Brechin City. The start was electrifying with an early opener from Chris Hegarty as we all surfed on the emotion of William "Sandy" Pullar Jardine raising the league flag. We probably all know someone who didn't make it to the end of this Journey. Sandy didn't know all of us, but we knew Sandy as one of us. Sandy in Royal Blue. God bless.
29th October 2013 Stenhousemuir 0 – 1 Rangers
Thanks to a fellow Bear with the finest Royal Blue Axminster carpet I've ever walked on, I secured two tickets for this Ramsden's semi final match at Ochilview. Myself and my lad joined a few thousand bears. On a bitterly cold evening we enjoyed the terracing banter, but little else. Semi-finals aren't meant to be like this I thought, especially a winning one.
15th February 2014 Ayr United 0 – 2 Rangers
I wouldn't say Somerset Park features on my bucket list. But I'm glad I made it to this match. It's a venue I remember as a kid – possibly the Ally McLeod effect – and it reeked of a bygone age. Cammy Bell made some great first half saves in front of us and two early second half goals got us through this one comfortably in the end. The half time curry and chips were pretty decent as well.
12th April 2014 Rangers 1 – 3 Dundee United
A week before this Cup semi final I had opined that McCoist was our worst ever manager. I had given up my Ramsden Cup Final ticket to a young Bear from Dundee. John, all I can say again is sorry. The extra time goal by the clever John Baird after some defensive ping pong between Foster and Jig was as inevitable as it was depressing.
But hope springs eternal and a home match against McNamara's bright young commissions in the Scottish Cup semi was too good to miss. Their Chairman Thompson sat sucking his dummy in the Broomloan while the rest of Ibrox almost rocked like the good old days. At first I found myself in the midst of the re-located Union Bears in the Copland. So for all of 30 seconds I too was a Union Bear on this journey.
In fairness the United youngsters were sharper than us, but we competed and I insisted through a hoarse larynx at half time to those around me that we would could still do it. But a Simonsen howler put paid to that hope. I will remember this as Peralta's (RIP) best game for us.
This was perhaps the only time during the journey I felt genuine post match anger. It was our most high profile match since those 2012 days and heading out of Ibrox a thin line of Scotland's once finest separated the departing Bears from the opposing fans as they headed to their buses. Yes, there was the banter and some goading from both sides but the atmosphere touched on being ugly. Mostly handbags from some in gladrags hindsight would tell me later, but also an undercurrent of angry mob rule from a few draped in tangerine and itching for a fight. They had won for goodness sake!
I felt a sneering intolerance directed at people – my people – simply for the team they support. Shortly afterwards and somewhat calmer I shook hands with some of the more rational folk departing on the Dundee bound buses and wished them well. But I was still pleased when it was their cup final opponents who prevailed to win their first Scottish Cup.
Season 2013-14 was bitter sweet to say the least. We played out the league season unbeaten but most of us knew the reality. Things can only get better we no doubt whispered in our heads. But the only thing that seemed to be true on this rollercoaster ride is that what starts to go up comes back down with a bang. Onward to season 2014-15 we journeyed…

Great Lakes Coastal Wetlands
Great Lakes coastal wetlands are some of the most biologically diverse ecosystems in Michigan and they are crucial to the health of the Great Lakes basin as a whole. Coastal wetlands serve as spawning and nesting habitat for a variety of animals, help maintain water quality throughout the basin, aid in preventing erosion along exposed shorelines and offer recreational and tourism opportunities throughout the state. Based on the Great Lakes Coastal Wetland Consortium inventory of coastal wetlands, Michigan has approximately 275,748 acres of Great Lakes coastal wetlands. Michigan has lost about 50% of the coastal wetlands that existed in Michigan prior to European settlement. In some locations, such as the Detroit River, loss is as high as 90%. As the population of Michigan grows and brings with it the threat of additional land conversion for agriculture and industry, protection of these areas becomes more important than ever.
Habitat types found in these coastal areas include marshes, fens, bogs, freshwater estuaries, forested dune and swale complexes, lake plain prairie and many others. Each of these habitat types supports unique array of plant and animal species. Development of habitat in coastal wetlands depends on a variety of factors, including shoreline configuration, glacial and bedrock geology, climate and human land use. Fluctuating water levels also play an important role in the ecology of these systems, and are necessary to maintain biodiversity in coastal wetlands.
Despite the impacts that have reduced the area of coastal wetland throughout the state, there is still an astonishing amount of biodiversity within these areas. Coastal wetlands are essential to many species of fish, such as yellow perch, largemouth bass and northern pike. Many of the unique wetland types along Michigan's coastline also provide critical habitats for numerous rare and imperiled species including the Hine's Emerald Dragonfly (Somatochlora hineana), Pugnose Minnow (Opsopoeodus emiliae), Black Tern (Chlidonias niger), Dwarf Lake Iris (Iris lacustris), Swamp Rose Mallow (Hibiscus moscheutos), and many others.
Between Land and Lakes: Michigan's Great Lakes Coastal Wetlands
The State of the Lakes Ecosystem Conference (SOLEC) formed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Environment Canada has identified coastal wetlands as an imperiled resource in the Great Lakes. In response to this finding, the EPA formed the Great Lakes Coastal Wetlands Consortium (GLCWC) to develop a basin-wide monitoring plan. By participating in the GLCWC, the department plays an active role in the effort to coordinate monitoring among states and provinces.
Preservation:
As wetland losses occur, the need to preserve high quality areas becomes more important. The department's wetland strategy f includes ensuring Michigan's rarest, highest quality and most vulnerable wetland systems are identified and that strategies are developed to protect and manage these resources. In particular, we are working on several projects to ensure protection of coastal wetland areas remains a top priority.
Together with the department's Coastal Management Program, we are formulating a plan for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Coastal and Estuarine Land Conservation Program. This program distributes federal funds to state and local government agencies for permanent protection of coastal areas. Michigan hopes to nominate several projects to receive this funding every year once the plan is complete.
We have also worked with a number of other public agencies, environmental organizations and citizen groups to identify high quality areas of Saginaw Bay through the Saginaw Bay Coastal Initiative. The goal of this group is to collaboratively identify high quality and restorable coastal wetland sites in the bay area and distribute this information with recommendations for preservation strategies to local governments, land conservancies and drain commissioners.
Restoration:
The wetlands program is supporting coastal restoration efforts by collaborating with other agency's projects. These include participating in the Detroit International Wildlife Refuge's Five Star Restoration Project. The refuge includes Humbug Marsh, the first wetland in Michigan to receive dedication as a Ramsar wetland of international importance.
In August 2011, EGLE and the Association of State Wetlands Managers held a special symposium on "Wetland Management in Response to Climate Change," in conjunction with the statewide Annual Wetlands Conference presented by the Michigan Wetlands Association. The symposium included a variety of presentations by researchers, wetland managers, and wetland policy professionals, that focused on the goals and challenges associated with implementing climate change adaptation strategies for wetlands in Michigan.
As a result of the symposium and this project, the Association of State Wetland Managers developed a white paper outlining the climate change predictions for Michigan wetlands, and identifying specific adaptation strategies and recommendations for Michigan agencies and land managers.
Climate Change Adaptation Plan for Coastal and Inland Wetlands in the State of Michigan White Paper
The Water Resources Division considers climate change and adaptation in all programs, including the review of permit applications. There are resources that have been developed by groups throughout Michigan which provide best management recommendations for climate change adaptation for coastal wetlands, which can be used by applicants in project planning and alternatives analysis.
In 2014 the Great Lakes Commission developed an online Toolkit of Best Management Practices for Climate Change Adaptation actions for Michigan's coastal wetlands. This online toolkit provides case studies of different practices at two levels: institution-level practices, and project-level practices: Great Lakes Commission "Best Management Practices for Climate Change Adaptation: Spotlight on Michigan Coastal Wetlands" https://www.glc.org/library/2014-best-practices-for-climate-change-adaptation-mi-wetlands
In 2014, Land Information Access Association (LIAA) conducted developed a white paper, audio-visual aids, and a website identifying specific best management strategies to assist local governments and local planners to incorporate climate change adaptation for LIAA's "Climate Change Adaptation and Local Planning Project" http://www.greatlakeswetlandadaptation.org/

The first relatively serious information on diamond production in India dates from the XVIIth Century, when Jean-Baptiste Tavernier (1605-1689), a French precious stones merchant, traveled several times to India, first with the support of Cardinal Mazarin and then with that of Louis XIV. Tavernier recounts his adventures in "The Six Voyages of John Baptiste Tavernier", a superbly illustrated book first published in Paris (1676) and then in London (1678). This book contains skillful sketches of each of the stones that he sold to the Sun King.
During his travels, Tavernier visited only three of the numerous Indian mines: Raolconda, Gani Colour and Soulempour. But the beauty and rareness of the diamonds that he brought back to Europe remain unsurpassed today: the Koh-i-Noor (Mountain of Light) and the Hope (Large Blue Diamond) are only two examples of the magnificent and invaluable stones with which he returned.

Two behavioral states studied in a single PET/FDG procedure: Error analysis
J. Y. Chang, R. Duara, W. Barker, A. Apicella, F. Yoshii, R. E. Kelley, Myron Ginsberg, T. E. Boothe
In a previous publication the theory, procedure, and results of a method were described for making two sequential measurements of cerebral metabolic rate for glucose (CMRglc), within a 2-hr period, using [18F]fluorodeoxyglucose. The error that is specific to this technique was estimated using computer simulations. CMRglc for the second state was sensitive to errors in (a) the values of the rate constants, (b) alignment of PET slices between the two scans, and (c) subtraction of one PET image from another. The root mean square of the average error from each error source was 6.4%, which gives the theoretical reliability of this method. The measured reproducibility, taken from our previous publication, was 4.2-6.2%, which is in good agreement with the present result. This method contributes a small additional error above that expected for two independent scans. However, independent scans done on different days are likely to be subject to larger physiological variations in CMRglc than would occur using this method.

TORONTO, Jan. 15, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CB2 Insights ("CB2" or the "Company") a leading global provider of predictive analytics tools, data-driven software and comprehensive services across the medical cannabis value chain, has released, "Real-World Evidence Shows Patients Seeking Cannabis For Mood Disorders," its first report in a comprehensive series outlining trends and insights found within the medical cannabis industry. The report, which was conducted over a 4-week period, focuses on the propensity of mood-related conditions in medical cannabis patients and provides comparative analysis with other qualifying primary conditions and condition categories such as sleep, pain, appetite and others.
According to the study, CB2 Insights found mood-related conditions accounted for the majority (34.77 percent) of patients seeking cannabis as a medicine (conditions such as depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder), followed by pain-related. However, while more than half of US states (33 plus Washington, DC) have medical cannabis frameworks in effect, only 24 states list any mood-related disorder as a qualifying condition and in all of those cases only PTSD is listed.
Followed by mood-related conditions, pain-related conditions were a close second (33.05%) which includes conditions such as migraines, chronic pain, back problems and spinal cord injuries.
According to the study, 15.33% sought cannabinoid therapy for sleep-related disorders. While most states have approved chronic and intractable pain as a qualifying condition for cannabis usage, the vast majority list PTSD as the only qualifying mood-related condition and two states do not allow for mood-related conditions to qualify at all.
7 states plus Washington, DC allow for a certified healthcare practitioner to provide a medical document for patients they deem cannabis as a treatment to be appropriate for any condition; thus allowing those with broader mood-related conditions to qualify.
CB2 Insights focuses on bridging the evidence-based data gap within the medical cannabis industry through predictive analytics tools obtained from the Company's software and service offerings. The Company's sub-brands have reached more than 300,000 cannabis patient interactions worldwide.
To download a copy of the report "Real-World Evidence Shows Patients Seeking Cannabis for Mood Disorders" please visit: www.cb2inisghts.com/cannabisandmoodreport.
Patients were studied over a 4-week period across 4 states and out of 16 evaluation and education centers run by CB2 Insights' subsidiary, Canna Care Docs.
Within the report, CB2 Insights assessed nearly 500 patients across multiple states within the CB2's medical cannabis evaluation and education centers, Canna Care Docs. Patients who visit Canna Care Docs seeking comprehensive evaluation and education services are seen by both certified clinicians and educators to assess primary and secondary conditions, symptoms, previous treatments, current medication and many other data points that are used for confidential treatment planning for the patient.

This is a little add-on that has saved me more than once.
If I'm playing a gig that's a bit more high pressure than usual, I'll attach my drum key/stretchy key ring belt clip on my snare in the 6 o' clock position. Although I usually keep an unattached drum key in the 2 o' clock position on my snare, I may forget to put it there or drop it during a quick fix.
Between pressing buttons, turning pages, & watching for cues, I don't want to be searching for a drum key should I need it. The coil stretches far enough to reach every piece of gear and doesn't scratch the drum because it's plastic... and it glows in the dark.
Once I remember making an adjustment between songs when all of a sudden the guitarist starting playing his 2-count intro. (He was caught up int he moment!) I had an 8th note to double crash on 1 so I basically threw the key out of my way to get to the sticks. It quickly snapped back into place and was ready to be used again.
You can find the stretchy key ring/belt clips at multiple online outlets and they're really affordable. The original batch I purchased have lasted since the early 2000's and I've even given a few away to 'inquiring' drummers at the show.

My time has been very much occupied for a number of weeks and I have had not time to write letters at all.  I have not kept school any now for a little more than a week but I have had all I could do to take care of our boarders.  We have had sometimes 15 or 20 at once that had their meals here tho they did not all sleep here and now for three or four days I have had all the work to do alone as Mr. Stearns has done nothing 'at all' and I have had 13 or more regular boarders all the time besides lots of transient folks so you may guess that I have been somewhat busy.  I think now I shall sell out my share and if I get enough to make me square, that is just pay my living through the winter, I shall be pretty well satisfied tho I expected to make something when I commenced but Stearns has acted so about the Em. A. Soc. that he is not popular here and we suffer some for it -- you may have seen some of his letters in the papers, he writes for the Tribune (NY) and the Liberator also.  He is down on the E.A. Co. "like a thousand of brick".  I don't think so much of it as some do but I don't think quite so badly of it as he does for he says it has been a curse to the territory while I merely say it has not done as much good as I wish it had and as it ought to have done.  There are some things about it that I don't like at all.  You need not be surprised if the next news you hear from me is that I have decided to go to California.  There are a lot of young fellows going from here and I don't know but I shall go with them.  We shall start about the 10th of May, and go by way of Salt Lake City.  We can have 30, per month and found to drive team out there; go in a train of about 100 wagons.
I want you, Father, to get the Boston Weekly Journal of Feb. 22nd if you have not seen it and read what Dr. Webb and Dr. Robinson write about Stearns and Willard.  And then get the Journal of April 6th or about that time and see the answers that they have just written.  Dr. Robinson has told some lies in that piece and no mistake -- but they have paid him off with truth mostly.  I shall if I can get and send along some papers with this letter that I want you to read the Editorials and see what they said about Em[.] Aid Soc. to read and circulate.  There is a large mail at Westport now but we can't get it because the P.M. would not send to Lawrence until he received orders from the Department of Washington.
Our election will come on Friday and we shall have a hot time of it.  I expect almost that the pro slavery ticket will be elected but if it is there will be some Free State men on that.  I have not heard from you at home for some time; you ought to write oftener.  You can shows this to any one that wants to see it.  The reason why I have not kept school has been that they have made my schoolroom into a boarding house, and many Emigrants are arriving and we can't accommodate them any other way.
Description Edward Fitch of Lawrence, Kansas writes a letter to his parents on March 25, 1855, discussing controversy over the Massachusetts Emigrant Aid Society. Some consider it "a curse to the territory," Fitch says, but he disagrees and claims it merely "has not done as much good as I wish it had." He informs his parents, who live in Massachusetts, that he has turned his school into a boardinghouse to accommodate an influx of emigrants. He also mentions the upcoming state legislative election in Kansas and expresses concern that the pro-slavery ticket will win.

April Update: Hey Bellingham! We need your help!
Do you wear disposable contacts? If so- please collect all your contact lens waste- plastic and foil packaging and the contacts themselves. Earth Day is April 22nd and we want to send a huge box of contact lens waste to our partner recycling facility that specializes in unique recycling (see more info here). The packaging is too small for our city recycling and it just gets thrown in the dump. Accumulatively- that's a lot of plastic and there is an alternative. So please- grab yourself a little box and start separating out your contact lens waste and bring it down to Binyon by April 22nd. Together a little goes a long way.

WWII'S FORGOTTEN HEROES - TRAINING FLIGHT VICTIMS
SHARE WWII'S FORGOTTEN HEROES - TRAINING FLIGHT VICTIMS
They are perhaps the most forgotten of World War II's forgotten.
They never reached Europe or the Pacific. Instead, they died thousands of miles from the war in lumbering bombers and crude fighter planes that plowed into snowy New England mountainsides or dropped into the Atlantic, often in the black of night.They were the casualties of flight training, deprived even of the gratitude and honor bestowed on victims of combat.
More than 15,130 men died in World War II flight training across the country, according to the Air Force Safety Agency in Albuquerque. Among them were at least 118 killed in 35 accidents on training flights from Westover in the western Massachusetts city of Chicopee, according to military and state records.
Most died on flights of giant B-24 bombers, which allowed escape only through their underside in a crash. The plane was nicknamed the "Liberator," but many called it the "Flying Coffin."
The accidents were blamed on mechanical failure and errors by often inexperienced pilots.
Frank Tencza, a Vietnam veteran from Wilbraham, held a 1989 memorial service atop Mount Holyoke for 10 airmen who died in a Westover crash there in late May 1944 as they prepared to invade France on D-Day. That operation, so well-remembered by history, was launched 10 days later without them.
This year, Tencza is organizing another service at the South Hadley site for Saturday, two days before Memorial Day and nine before the 50th anniversary of D-Day. This one will honor all who died on Westover training flights in World War II.
"Who would . . . think of training accidents as part of the cost of war?" Tencza asked. "Let's remember them - at least once."
"Nobody in officialdom ever recognized them after they were dead. Within a month, they were forgotten," said Brian Lindner, who organized a similar 1989 service for nine victims of a crash on a mountain in Duxbury, Vt.
Hearing the Westover death toll 50 years later shocked Betty O'Connell, who worked in supply and outfitting at a base hangar during the war.
"I don't ever, ever remember that much," she said haltingly. "They sure kept that information from us."
"It was part of the war thing," said Gordon Newell, who serves as a civilian spokesman for Westover, now an Air Force Reserve base. "There was just so much going on - necessity of war."
They were sarcastically known as "90-day wonders," these fledgling fliers mostly in their teens and 20s who were sent to Westover to form crews, gain flight experience, and fly out three months later to join the Army Air Corp's 8th Air Force in Europe.
Although the Air Force wasn't a separate military branch until two years after the war, America's warplanes made a huge contribution in crippling Hitler's Germany.
But the staggering losses in combat quickly washed away memories of training accidents, however terrible. "The numbers were absolutely nothing compared to the losses being taken on major raids," said Frank Faulkner, a historian of Westover.
Sixty bombers were lost in a single raid over Schweinfurt, Germany, in October 1943.
Meanwhile, relatives of training victims were tormented by a feeling that the deaths lacked even the meaning and dignity of perishing in fighting. "I think if he had died in combat, he was fighting for our country. He was only on maneuvers," said Vivian Leite of Middleboro, a victim's sister. "Something like that shouldn't happen."
For her, training victims are the "forgotten heroes."
Leite's brother, Cpl. Jim Perry, was 18 when he died with eight others in the October 1944 crash at Duxbury.
"My mom and dad never got over this. I think there's always that resentment," Leite said.
The sole survivor of that crash was Jim Wilson, a gunner who lay unconscious on the frozen mountainside for more than 60 hours until rescuers found him. He lost his hands and feet to frostbite.
