Q: Excel VBA set print area to last row with data I have an Excel table with a sheet "CR" where columns A to K are filled, with the first row being a header row.
Rows 1-1000 are formatted (borders) and column A contains a formula to autonumber the rows when data in column F is entered.
Sheet "CR" is protected to prevent users from entering data in column A (locked).
Using the Workbook_BeforePrint function, I'm trying to set the print area to columns A to K and to the last row of column A that contains a number.
My code (in object 'ThisWorkbook') is as follows:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean)
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim lastRow As Long

Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("CR")

' find the last row with data in column A
lastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row

ws.PageSetup.PrintArea = ws.Range("A1:K" & lastRow).Address
End Sub

However, when I click File -> Print, the range of columns A to K up to row 1000 is displayed instead of only the rows that have a number in column A. What am I doing wrong?

A: Change:
lastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row

To:
lastRow = [LOOKUP(2,1/(A1:A65536<>""),ROW(A1:A65536))]

A: .End(...) will act like ctrl + arrow-key. if the cell has a formula (which looks empty due to the formula, then it will still stop there... another way would be the use of evaluate (if you do not want to loop) like this:
lastRow = .Evaluate("MAX(IFERROR(MATCH(1E+100,A:A,1),0),IFERROR(MATCH(""zzz"",A:A,1),0))")

This will give the last row (which has a value in column A).
Also check if there are hidden values (looking empty due number format or having characters you can't see directly. Try to go below row 1000 in column A (select a cell after A1000 in column A) and hit ctrl+up to validate where it stops (and why).
EDIT:
(regarding your comment)
"" still leads to a "stop" for the .End(...)-command. So either use my formula, translate the formula into vba or loop the cells it get the last value. Also Find is a good tool (if not doing it over and over for countless times).
lastRow = .Cells.Find("*", .Range("B1"), xlValues, , xlByColumns, xlPrevious).Row

About The Munster Motorhome Club.
The Munster Motorhome Club was founded in 2004 to cater for the needs of like minded people in the Munster region of Ireland. Our founder has been motor caravanning since 1972, when motor caravanning was in its infancy in Ireland. The needs of motorcaravanners from the Munster region weren't catered for, so the Munster Motorhome Club was born in 2004. The club has been highly successful in promoting the use of motorhomes in Ireland, and has encouraged friendship amongst thousands of people of similar persuasion. It also supported the tourist industry, and encouraged motorhome owners from other countries to visit Ireland.
We do not restrict visitors who wish to attend our get-togethers, all we ask is that they advise the secretary of their intention to attend an event. Most of our venues are on caravan parks with electric hook up, toilets and showers. All our events are posted on the web site so please make contact if you wish to attend a venue. Our AGM weekend is restricted to club members.
Our season starts at New Year and continues right through the year with get-togethers nearly every other weekend in high season, see our list for this year. One of our aims is that a member hasn't to travel too far to attend a get-together after a hard weeks work. Most of oyr get-togethers are held in the Munster region. If you have never rallied with us before, or for that matter, never rallied at all, why not come along to one and see for yourself what a marvellous time we have. Many long friendships have been made by our members over the years.
We have many picturesque areas to visit in Munster which is comprised of some of the most beautiful counties in Ireland. Clare with its Cliffs of Moher, Limerick and the picturesque village of Adare, Tipperary and the Rock of Cashel, Waterford, famous the world over for its Waterford Crystal, Cork with its rugged coastline and the Beara Peninsula and the jewel in the Munster crown, Kerry and its world famous "Ring of Kerry".
The Munster region has an abundance of caravan parks, in some beautiful settings and after your stay with us you can sample some of them.
We do not encourage wild camping and for your safety would urge you to stay in a caravan park. Aires de Services are very limited in Ireland with only one in County Limerick at Askeaton, two in Co. Cork (one in Cobh close to train station and one in Midleton town car park) one at Goosey Island Sneem Co Kerry, and 3 in Northern Ireland at Broughshane, Carricfergus & Whitehead.

My daughters husband has just started a veterans court treatment program. So far things are looking up for him, but this is a 15 to 18 month program, and he just started a month ago. I feel that she still is being somewhat codependent on his needs which she somewhat agrees with me on. She also attends Al anon. She blames all of his problems (financial abuse of not paying any household bills - the biggest issue and a lot of selfishness) completely on the alcoholism. His father really took advantage of people and he was not an alcoholic. Could the alcoholism be completely to blame or do you think she just has blinders on?
Hi there and thank you for your question. My first thought is, "Well, of course he is still codependent, it's only been a month." I am a huge fan of Veteran's courts, family drug courts, and other alternative sentencing and recovery programs. Given that he is a veteran, I am wondering if his experiences in the military are also impacting his behavior That seems likely to me. It sounds like your daughter is attending to her own needs and I urge you to simply support her and her family as this is indeed a long process and there are likely many changes yet to come. I generally see milestones/improvements in 3 month increments after a person attains sobriety and I urge utilizing AA and NA to meet the needs that have only just begun to surface. Good luck and blessed be!


Disney Infinity 3.0 has brought us a large amount of new and improved features when it comes to cross over of characters from one playset to another. Long gone are the "Crossover Coins" from 2.0, and now in their place we have Champion Coins.
Collect the corresponding Champion coin for each character inside a Star Wars Playset to unlock cross over compatibility. Some of the coins are hidden in plain sight, some in ridiculous or funny locations, others are tucked away and can be a pain to reach.
Below is the full breakdown of how to locate all the Champion coins inside the Twilight of the Republic playset, including all the Rise Against The Empire characters and the Star Wars Rebels cast. No word yet on how the Champion Coin system will work on the yet announced figures for Star Wars! More details to follow!
Found outside the droid factory, on the small cave / landing to the left of the factory doors.
In the Lower District, in the far back corner of the map, located above the archway of door under the large purple circle.
Found above the entrance to the Jedi Temple.
Found at the base of center statue inside the Jedi Temple.
Found on a building overhang in the downtown district (in the last 1/3 of the Cad Bane chase).
Just outside Mos Espa archway under the bare wreckage of the ship.
On the abandoned sand skiff directly outside of town in the desert area.
Under a rounded brown awning / canopy near the launch pad area.
Under a brown awning / canopy directly behind the small Jabba the Hut statue.
On the top level of the Sand People village area.
In the final room of the power station where you finish your Darth Maul battle.
You can visit our guide for collectibles and storyline here.
Thank you very much. I'm playing this play set with my son and he wants to use Luke so much (same name) but I didn't have a clue how to unlock it. He will be so excited tonight.
Is there a way to play through the entire game with one of the cross over characters? My son has competed the game and located all of the coins. However, he wanted to play through as the characters from star wars rebels. Select new game and all the collected coins are gone. Skill trees stay updated.
I'm currently replaying as Darth Vader. You don't start a new game, but you can go back and replay every story line mission in order. Just go to mission log, scroll all the way down and select the story ones in order. I fly to the planets in order and do it that way. Except I skipped the shooting in space in between. Hope that helps!
thanks for the post. I can unlock the characters for my son now. what makes me mad about the other characters being locked is trying to explain it to a angry 6 year old he has to unlock the character he wants to play with , they really shouldn't lock any of the characters like this in a child's game.
Plenty of other games do this, just not any other Toys2Life games.
I noticed that kylo ren, poe, rey, and Finn aren't found in my nephews version. Is there any reason for this?
You have to update your Disney Infinity through an online patch to access champion coins from the force awakened playset. It should do this automatically as long as your console is hooked up to the internet.
No he's not on PC he's playing on the WiiU. And it did update I believe. When we first started trying to play the game it said it needed to go through an update and wouldn't let us play until it had completed. Not sure if it was still running background updates or not while we were playing.
When/ how do I unlock tatooine? My son has dearth Vader but can't use him yet?
In the twilight of the republic play set does it only go up to where you battle darth maul?
In order to get Poe Damerons X-Wing it says to get gold medals what are they and how can u get them? Thx!
Is this how I unlock the Character to be able them to play in the Twilight of the Republic? It says I need to find it in the toy box!
My Wii U game doesn't have force awakens coins or Bubba!!!!!!!!!! What is wrong.


Last year my mom got me this hammock chair swing, but I didn't have anywhere to hang it. Until now. The giant tree in the back is just the right size.
I can't believe a tree made it past Aaron's slaughter! Looks pretty comfy, I'd love a hammock.
Hey there, that's a very nice swing hammock your mother brought for you. I like it. I think swing hammock is very comfortable than other hanging hammocks.

Land Rover Series 2a - Another Happy Customer!
It is always a pleasure to share a happy customer's testimonial - so we thought we would do so again!
Just wanted to get in touch to say that the Series 2a was delivered to me over the weekend. It is everything you said it was and I am delighted with it.
Also just want to say it was an absolute pleasure to deal with you and you couldn't have been more helpful.
The world was introduced to the Land Rover over 70 years ago at the 1948 Amsterdam Motor Show, and the iconic 4x4 manufacturer has celebrated the milestone with an incredible online broadcast. We have embedded the video below, but make sure you are comfortable, as it is on for over half an hour!
The video was published on 30th April, the same date as the unveiling of the first Land Rover 7 decades ago, and that particular date has now been declared as "World Land Rover" day to officially mark the occasion.
As part of the countdown to the celebration, Land Rover pulled off a number of eye-catching and high-profile events and stunts, and there are more celebrations planned throughout the rest of 2018.
One of these saw the Land Rover Defender taken to new heights, literally, as snow artist Simon Beck drew the outline of the instantly-recognisable 4x4 onto the side of a French Alp. The impressive imprint was 250-metres long!
Beck's outline was a tribute to the moment when Maurice Wilks, the engineering director of Rover, first sketched the shape of the original Land Rover into the sand of Red Wharf Bay in Anglesey to show his design to his brother Spencer, who was Rover's managing director. The rest, as they say, is history.
"To reach the landmark of 70 years is truly special and we will mark it with a year of celebrations that represents Land Rover's 'Above and Beyond' spirit and honours the people behind the world's favourite SUVs.
Land Rover from Peter Rabbit film sells at auction!
The 1969 Land Rover Series 2a featured in the Peter Rabbit film.
The new Peter Rabbit film, which features the voice talents of James Corden and Margot Robbie, entered cinemas in the UK on Friday 16th March, 2018.
Don't worry, we haven't decided to take up the art of film reviewing! Instead, we will be sticking to what we know, and taking a look at the (almost) 50-year old Land Rover that was used by the villain of the film, Mr McGregor.
Mr McGregor, the villainous farmer who is portrayed by Irish actor Domhall Gleeson, can be seen driving the pastel green Land Rover Series 2a into a warehouse while Peter and the other rabbits cling onto the bottom of the iconic 4x4. It also features in a number of other scenes throughout the film.
This particular Series 2a was manufactured in 1969 and features a 2250cc petrol engine, which has been said to be in 'excellent' condition. It also boasts a refurbished tan interior and bodywork that is in near mint condition. It was supplied for the film by Action 99 Cars, who also fitted it with a false registration plate.
The Land Rover has now been sold at the 'Duxford Motor Car Auction', which was hosted at the Imperial War Museum on the 21st March. The sale was held by collectors' motorcar and motorcycle specialists, H&H Classics, and the Series 2a eventually fetched a price of £11,362.50.
If you are interested in acquiring an original, restored Land Rover of your own, make sure you check out the wide range available through our website! You can take a look here.

Don't let their size fool you; these little bites are rich in antioxidant, mood-boosting ingredients like maca root powder and cacao nibs. Other Earthfoods worth mentioning in this recipe: unsweetened coconut flakes and ground flaxseeds!
Held together with "peanut only" crunchy peanut butter (the oily/drippy kind works best) and a drizzle of pure maple syrup, No-Bake Cranberry Coconut Mood-Boosting Bites are the perfect little treat for when you want something sweet after dinner (which I always do!) and are craving a little nutrition too.
Having that usual cranky family member over for Thanksgiving dinner? Adaptogenic maca root powder is known for boosting both energy and mood! So consider whipping up a batch and offering one to Mr./Mrs. Grumpy Pants for dessert (a glass of wine wouldn't hurt either…for both you and the grumpster! 🙂 ).
In a large mixing bowl, mix coconut through maca powder until combined. In a smaller bowl, whisk together peanut butter and maple syrup.
Pour wet mixture over dry mixture and fold together until well incorporated. If mixture is too dry, add a little more peanut butter.


ACASE workshops are tailored specifically to the needs of your district, school, and your teachers. Ranging in time from half a day to two weeks in length, we provide continuing support over the school year as needed or desired.
Many teachers from previous workshops have gone forward with the work they began with us—some of this work can be seen in refinements to assessments posted on this website, other work will be incorporated after further testing by other teachers.
My work with Paul has given me more focus on how students learn and how to better adapt instruction to those needs. I learned more about the purpose and function of assessment. This work inspires me to make revisions to my assessment and teaching in the classroom.
Learning is important to me. Thinking about the various aspects of assessment that get at concepts has been important to me. It is amazing to me that one performance assessment activity can test so many concepts. This work has affected my teaching in thoughtful and positive ways: I want to add more "play" and "discovery" time into units, thoughtfully embed more time and strategies into my instruction in those areas where conceptual understanding is lacking, and include more assessments in my classroom in the future. Pre and post testing, as well as treatments prior to post testing, satisfies a need I have to use information to assess my teaching and students learning. My work with AIS causes me to rethink my teaching, and for this I am grateful. The practitioners meetings with interesting people who have powerful ideas about teaching, learning, and how to assess them has been great! I love being surrounded by thoughtful people who force me to think.
I didn't expect it to be so pedagogically authentic, to actually create a learning environment, to see in real time what a constructivist environment could look like. I was just waiting and then there it was—seamless. I didn't think the collaboration would be so organic, so on-going. I'm learning, there's more I want to learn.
Initially, I was invited to a demonstration by Paul Zachos at The Adirondack School. The task that I observed was the pendulum observation task. The entire time I was in the room I couldn't stop thinking about the pendulum and its inner workings. To find out later that the task was primarily aimed at measuring human error was fascinating. I was hooked from that point on and couldn't wait to start using the tasks with others.
I learned to use the assessment as a teaching tool. To have students internalize the assessment procedure is to make a permanent change in how they regulate their own responses.
Our work together has given me the opportunity to reflect on my teaching practices and question to what extent, in quantitative terms, my practices truly are inquiry versus deductive reasoning with a set of given knowledge parameters.
Our work together has opened my eyes to the use of performance assessments on a regular basis in the classroom. I have benefited from the feedback I have gotten in our collaborative setting. The work we have done this year is a perfect model for how professional development should be done—collaborative, long term, and analyzing student work.
Assessment plays a powerful role in the learning process. Aligning assessments with learning goals is essential to a successful learning environment. Working with AIS has also helped me to further develop my assessments by defining them in more detail and communicating them more clearly. The impact of our work has made me a more critical consumer of my learning environments. It's worth the effort to choose challenging and active learning environments. The development of assessment activities with clearly stated learning goals will continue in my work next year.

'No room for harassment of women'
Sherry Rehman says 'profanity brigade' cannot be allowed to spew venom against women
APP October 03, 2022
Federal Minister for Climate Change Sherry Rehman on Sunday said there was no room for harassment of women which should be condemned at every forum as it could not be allowed to promote profanity brigade spewing venom against people on public platforms.
Addressing a dialogue on growing violence against women in politics, the minister said that no civilised society allowed harassment of women.
The dialogue was organised by the Council of Pakistan Newspaper Editors (CPNE) and the 4th PillarVigilant Media Watchdog.
Sherry said: "I proudly claim to belong to the party of Benazir Bhutto and Bilawal Bhutto where no one can even think of harassment."
She said that PPP Co-Chairman Asif Ali Zardari used to take strict action on exploitation against women.
The minister said that she had also written a book on "womansplaining" highlighting women's struggle in our society, adding that "49 per cent of Pakistan's population consists of women and women are the worst affected by any crisis despite the fact that Pakistan's economy is driven by women."
Commenting on the recent incident of jeering at the information minister at a coffee shop in London by some overseas Pakistanis, she said the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf through its forum had carried out the funeral of ethics and moral values in the society.
"The PTI is taking the country to such a path of bad culture and degraded morals from which it is very difficult to retreat," Sherry Rehman said.
The minister further said that what happened to (Federal Minister for Information Marriyum Aurangzeb could happen to anyone.
"The PTI should condemn and prevent such incidents instead of promoting them," she said adding that "Women are being exploited and PTI leader is keeping a mum over the matter. You are fuelling fascism in Quaid-e-Azam's Pakistan".
The minister lambasted the PTI leadership for its silence on the issue and asked the PTI leaders: "Will you adopt this kind of attitude towards the women of your opponent party? These are the fruits of Imran Khan's speeches and narrative."

CRS' work in Thailand focuses on the HIV and AIDS crisis. More than 443,000 Thai people are living with HIV and AIDS, especially the rural poor in the south and northeast areas of the country where fear of stigma and discrimination discourages residents from seeking help.
We support the Thai Bishops Catholic Committee on HIV/AIDS, a network body in Thailand helping Catholic agencies more effectively strengthen their staff skill and knowledge on prevention, care, support and counseling, as well as other vocational technical skills for people living with HIV.
Finally out of Thailand, we also work with the networking body called Catholic Asia-Pacific Coalition on HIV/AIDS (CAPCHA), which provides learning and information exchange among Catholic organizations and staff working on HIV/AIDS in the region.
In addition to its HIV and AIDS work, CRS also manages a microfinance program in the northeastern part of the country, which provides low-interest loans to help people launch or expand businesses.
Finally, CRS provides support to Caritas Thailand to develop the diocesan level Caritas capacity to develop and implement projects for the poor.
CRS has been working in Thailand since the mid-1950s. In the 1970s, CRS and the Catholic Organization for Emergency Relief and Refugees (COEER) launched a major project on the Cambodian border providing food, clothing, and social services to refugees. CRS closed its Thailand office in 1995, but continued to support its microfinance program in Surin.
In 2001, CRS returned to Thailand and opened an office in Bangkok to oversee programs in Cambodia, Indonesia, Vietnam, the Philippines, and East Timor.
CRS' major programming in Thailand deals with microfinance and HIV and AIDS.

Was the Apple/Beats Deal a Hoax?
Did Apple lose its collective mind to buy some headphones? Chances are there was never a deal in the first place.
By John C. Dvorak

In a recent Seeking Alpha article, writer Mark Hibben suggests that the rumored deal between Apple and Beats Electronics may be dead and hints the unthinkable—there never was a deal in the first place.
The article goes on to list, point by point, all the reasons the deal may not go through, including the big whopper right at the beginning: "Because Beats Electronics isn't a publicly traded company, there's too little information for anyone outside of Apple to judge if Beats is a good investment."
News of the acquisition began with some speculative articles followed up by jumpy pro-Apple writers looking for any sort of news about the company.
Apple does not reveal a lot. Apple "news" tends to be speculative and based mostly on gossip. A website will get a supposed scoop on something and Apple watchers will spend months speculating about the rumor. Apple TV sets (which I myself have discussed) and the non-existent Apple iWatch are two decent examples.
This results in untoward free publicity for the Apple brand. It also makes an entire cadre of tech reporters and pundits into part of the Apple promotion department with no compensation. I always wonder how Apple would be doing without all this supporting publicity from this crowd.
The first person to come up with the idea that the Beats deal might be bullcrap was Leo Laporte on his weekly podcast, This Week in Tech. I was on this show and witnessed it. The thinking was sound, and when I presented it to others in the tech business who were familiar with Dr. Dre, everyone said that it is the sort of publicity stunt that Dre could be behind.
But because Apple essentially has a policy of never discussing anything, the Apple Buying Beats rumor was allowed to fester.
Most people in the know found the entire idea ludicrous because Apple had better branding than anyone. If it wanted to roll out headphones it would roll over the competition in a heartbeat. And audiophiles were not too keen on the Beats quality, so it made no sense for Apple, which promotes quality, to buy an inferior product.
But then the over-analysis began. The first idea was that it was about the streaming and not the headphones. Beats has Beats Music, and Apple is losing out to all the streaming services like Spotify since iTunes and the buy-a-song business model was/is over. People wanted streaming, which is essentially a commercial-free pay radio service with more personalization than XM/Sirius.
The insiders responded to that with the notion that anything having to do with Beats streaming is not successful. The dominant player in that space is Pandora. iTunes Radio and Beats Music compete in the space with iTunes Radio doing better business than Beats Music. So this makes no sense either.
Then a new storyline appears. The real target is Jimmy Iovine, the 61-year-old marketing guru, record producer, and Beats co-founder, who would do any deal to work for Apple. Because, god knows, Apple needs more egos in Cupertino.
This obvious disruption of the corporate culture seemed far-fetched, although amusing from a "what if" perspective. Seeing the brainiac collision between Iovine and Jonny Ive would be worth the price of admission.
We still don't know what all this is about but it does make a lot more sense that there is no deal here—and never was a deal here—than the possibility that Apple has gone bonkers.

Northwest Coal & Oil Exports
Northwest Tribes Band Together to Stop Oil-by-Rail
Coastal tribes share tactics and resources to bring fossil fuel transport to a halt.

This article is part of the series Northwest Coal & Oil Exports
Editor's note: This article was originally published by Yes! Magazine.
Oil trains mean an ever-present risk of an oil spill into our waterways.
There's no such thing as a good place for an oil-train derailment, but this year's June 3 spill outside Mosier, Oregon, could have been worse if the 16 oil cars had derailed and caught fire even a few hundred feet in either direction. The derailment was just far enough away from populated areas, including a nearby school and mobile home park, that no injuries resulted, and the amount of oil that spilled into the river was limited. If it had happened another mile-and-a-half down the tracks, the damaged tank cars would have tumbled directly into the Columbia river during the peak of the spring Chinook salmon run.
"This derailment right along the Columbia River is … a reminder that oil trains mean an ever-present risk of an oil spill into our waterways, threatening fisheries and livelihoods for Quinault Indian Nation members and our neighbors in Grays Harbor," Quinault Vice President Tyson Johnston said.
There are massive oil train ports planned for Anacortes, Grays Harbor, and Vancouver in Washington state. They have not yet broken ground, but if they ever do get built, the indigenous tribes that need healthy salmon to sustain their communities got a preview of what could go wrong.
The communities that live and fish along the Northwest's most important waterways have been working to bring these proposals to a screeching halt. "Proposed crude oil terminals in Grays Harbor are a threat to our treaty rights to fish in our usual and accustomed places," Johnston said. "Our safety, way of life, and economic future is on the line."
The 96-car train that derailed in Mosier was headed to Tacoma from the Bakken oil fields. Bakken oil train traffic to the West Coast spiked from practically nothing in 2012 to almost 200,000 barrels a day at the start of 2015, according to the US Energy Information Administration.
While production in the Bakken fields is off its late-2014 peak, terminal developers are betting on the long-term prospects of oil pumped from the Bakken region and from the tar sands of Alberta, Canada. If the proposed facilities for Anacortes, Grays Harbor, and Vancouver ever operate at full capacity, that 2014 peak for crude oil by rail will look like a drop in the bucket:
In Grays Harbor, Westway Terminal's proposed expansion would outfit the company's port to move crude oil from trains onto ships. The crude oil terminal could bring in nearly five trains per week to the harbor.
In Vancouver, the proposed Tesoro-Savage oil terminal would be the largest rail-to-vessel shipping facility in North America. It would bring in another 36 loaded trains per week, or about 360,000 barrels of oil.
In Anacortes, the Shell Refinery aims to build out a rail loop and additional unloading equipment in order to facilitate six more oil trains weekly than it already handles.
Significantly, weeks before the Mosier derailment, the Lummi Nation in the coastal northwest corner of Washington won a years-long battle against a massive coal export terminal proposed for the tribe's shores.
Gateway Pacific Terminal (GPT), a project of marine shipping corporation SSA Marine, would have been the largest coal export facility anywhere in North America, large enough to handle 48 million metric tons of coal annually. It had the backing of two major players in the Powder River Basin coal industry, Peabody Energy and Cloud Peak Energy, to build a 3,000-foot-long wharf extending into waters fished by generations of Lummis.
Burning the coal proposed to ship through GPT would have produced 96 million metric tons per year of carbon pollution. Even the unburned coal at the terminal would have posed spill risks to the local aquatic ecosystem, an important economic, cultural, and spiritual resource for the Lummi Nation. An environmental impact analysis, begun in February 2014, had been slow-moving and its outcome uncertain.
I hope we are reversing a 100-year trend of a pollution-based economy, one victory at a time.
How did the Lummi stop Gateway Pacific? They took a bold and unusual stand in January 2015, when they asked the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to protect their right to fish their "usual and accustomed grounds and stations," as written in the1855 Treaty of Point Elliott. Treaties are powerful legal instruments with the force of federal law and the potential to preempt inconsistent state laws. If successful, they would win a decisive, precedent-setting victory. A failure would open the door to weakening treaty protections.
After 16 months of increasingly well-organized and visible public opposition to the project, the Corps decided the tribe was right: The coal port would impede tribal fishing practices. The Corps rejected SSA Marine's application to build the pier.
The victory resounded throughout the region, increasing support and bolstering the resolve of other tribes embroiled in their own energy development battles.
"Today was a victory not only for tribes but for everyone in the Salish Sea. I hope we are reversing a 100-year trend of a pollution-based economy, one victory at a time," Brian Cladoosby, chairman of the Swinomish Indian Tribal Community and president of the National Congress of American Indians, told the Seattle Times.
"The Corps' decision is a victory for the Yakama Nation and all other treaty tribes," JoDe Goudy, chairman of the Confederated Tribes and Bands of the Yakama Nation, said in a written statement. "The fight, however, is not over. The threat of the coal movement remains, and the Yakama Nation will not abide these threats."
Like what you're reading? Find out how the Lummi Nation's treaty stand beat big coal.
Sure enough, the Yakama have joined with the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation and others to protest the massive Tesoro-Savage oil-by-rail terminal proposed for the banks of the Columbia River in Vancouver. In contrast to the Lummi, the Umatilla and Yakama are willing to let the environmental review process play out before taking overt action to protect their treaty rights.
In 2014, both tribes asked that the environmental impact statement (EIS) for the Tesoro-Savage project consider impacts to treaty rights. However, as the Lummi fight illustrated, treaty rights may be considered separately from the EIS, which remains the centerpiece of any major environmental review and is intended to outline all the potential environmental problems and ways to handle them.
Still, Yakama officials clearly rejected the notion that impacts to their land and treaty rights could be mitigated. "To be clear," wrote Chairman of the Yakama Nation Tribal Council Harry Smiskin in a 2014 comment to the Corps, "Yakama Nation will not negotiate nor agree to so-called mitigation for any violations or actions resulting in the diminishment or destruction of its treaty-reserved rights."
Cladoosby, the Swinomish chairman, struck the same note in a statement to the media earlier this year about the GPT: "There is no mitigation. We have to make a stand before this very destructive poison they want to introduce into our backyards. We say no."
We have to make a stand before this very destructive poison they want to introduce into our backyards.
In another tactic, the Swinomish Indian Tribal Community sued BNSF Railways in April last year for violating a contract between the tribe and the railroad that limited the length of trains that passed through the Swinomish reservation to 25 cars each and required the tribe be informed of changes in cargo. The Swinomish had learned from the media that BNSF was delivering crude oil on trains with 100 cars or more to the Shell and Tesoro refineries in Anacortes.
The tribe won an early decision in the lawsuit when a federal judge denied a BNSF motion to bring the issue before the Surface Transportation Board. The case is properly heard in federal court, the tribe said in a September 2015 statement, "The STB has no jurisdiction over tribal rights."
It's worth noting the basis for the Corps' decision in the Lummi case. While the Lummi Nation was prompted to make its request to the Corps by a vessel traffic study that concluded the coal port would bring 487 more vessels through the tribe's fishing grounds, the Corps did not rely on busier vessel-traffic lanes through Lummi fishing territory to make its decision. Instead, it referred only to the disruption of fishing that would occur at the dock site itself—about 122 acres total.
While the main area of concern for the Yakama and Umatilla is away from the proposed Vancouver oil terminal site—their main fishing grounds are the 150 miles of the Columbia River between Bonneville Dam and McNary Dam—the Quinault Indian Nation fishes out of Grays Harbor, where it has notable success fishing where ships would dock at the Westway expansion.
That fishing spot would be disrupted. The completed draft EIS for Westway describes how tribal fishers would need to either work around the increased number of vessels or fish elsewhere. But here's an important legal point: In the Lummi Nation's case, the Corps' Colonel Buck found that just going somewhere else to fish, as long as the tribe could hit its catch quota, was not an adequate protection of treaty rights.
Tribes are not confronting fossil-fuel projects alone and in a vacuum. They have been sharing resources and lobbying together in Washington, D.C., to oppose the many fossil-fuel projects proposed for the Pacific Northwest. "Working with the Lummis and seeing what they've gone through with the Army Corps of Engineers was definitely helpful, because it sets a precedent," said Johnston, the Quinault Indian Nation vice president.
Unlike the Lummi, the Quinault approach has been to focus the fight at the state rather than the federal level. Even with the different approach, the Quinault tribe believes the Lummi decision "bolsters and strengthens the position we have," Johnston said.
Could the Lummi Nation's assertion of treaty rights be a magic bullet other tribes could use to stop fossil-fuel projects?
"There's no direct answer to the question, except—maybe," said Robert Anderson, director of the Native American Law Center at the University of Washington School of Law. "The Cherry Point decision rested on evidence of direct interference with Lummi fishing by increased shipping traffic (at the terminal). The less direct the connection between such interference and environmental harm, the more difficult any case will be."
For the Lummi, fishing is such an integral part of their identity that they decided to sidestep the long, drawn-out EIS process and pull out all the stops to save their way of life. The Quinault, Umatilla, and Yakama appear willing to see the environmental reviews for Tesoro-Savage and Westway through to the end.
If this approach seems more conservative, keep in mind the Lummi strategy was risky. If the decision had been appealed in federal court, a judge somewhere down the line could reverse the Corps' ruling and, by doing so, unravel some of the treaty protections the Lummi Nation and other tribes rely on for their survival.
"I definitely think there should be concern from all tribal leadership because we don't know what the results would be if it went to a higher court," reflected Lummi council member Jeremiah "Jay" Julius a few days before the Corps released its decision.
But even a setback for treaty rights through a decision by, say, a conservative U.S. Supreme Court wouldn't be daunting for the Lummi Nation, said Darrell Hillaire, a former tribal chairman. "You think that this one issue is going to extinguish that belief? No, it's going to strengthen us."
Like other tribal members interviewed for this article, Hillaire takes a long view, both when looking forward and looking back. He pointed out that White settlers thought they might eradicate Lummi members after the introduction of alcohol and smallpox, or force them to assimilate after sending Lummi children to boarding schools where they couldn't learn their own language. Hillaire said Lummi believe they are survivors.
The Lummi Nation showed remarkable unity in its opposition to the terminal, which helped members get through the long fight. Likewise, other tribes are united in opposition to fossil fuel projects across the region. Whatever the end game might be for tribes such as the Yakama and Swinomish, there's a sense that the tide is turning in their favor. Hillaire sees the current times as empowering for tribes.
"What we have now is an emergence," he said. "Not just Lummi, but there are a lot of First Nations people—their culture and their social structures, their government itself … they're all emerging. I think they see that as a continuation of their sacred responsibility."

Editor's note: A previous version of this article erroneously stated that in 2015, "the Quinault Indian Nation and environmental groups tried unsuccessfully to block permits in court for Westway Terminal." Earthjustice's Kristen Boyles explained (see her comment below): "Quinault and environmental groups WON their Grays Harbor case and blocked the Westway and Imperium permits in 2013 under SEPA—a ruling upheld on appeal. The link is to another part of the appeal of certain other legal issues, one of which (state law protecting ocean resources) will be heard by the WA Supreme Court in Fall 2016."

Good overview, but one error to correct: Quinault and environmental groups WON their Grays Harbor case and blocked the Westway and Imperium permits in 2013 under SEPA — a ruling upheld on appeal. The link is to another part of the appeal of certain other legal issues, one of which (state law protecting ocean resources) will be heard by the WA Supreme Court in Fall 2016.

Ah, thank you, Kristen. We'll update. Did you also make this comment on Yes's original article?
I am a former development review and environmental officer responsible for reviewing all developments in a very busy and "fussy" city, now living in Vancouver, WA. Many here are following the Port of Vancouver oil/coal/gas terminal issues closely. One of the tactics always used by these types of developers is the number of jobs created will be awesome as well as the salaries. The reality is the number are always inflated and usually just flat out lies by the developer. My hope is opponents will use real, provable economic numbers and also compare those numbers to the alternatives, such as exportable sustainable technology equipment, to counter these false claims. One developer I worked with (and later against) stated the number of "employees" in his original estimate included robots. Really. You can't make this stuff up.
Thanks to David W. Hastings for supporting a sustainable Northwest.

The Fugitive Maryland Zebras Have Been Found
The two remaining zebras are now safe and sound.

After months of fascinating the DC area, the fugitive Maryland Zebra Saga has come to an end. The two zebras who have run away from a farm near Upper Marlboro have been found and captured, WUSA9 reports.
The US Department of Agriculture and Prince George's County government has not disclosed where the zebras are currently located, but more information will be released in the coming hours.
The animals have been on the loose since late August they escaped from Jerry Lee Holly's private farm. Since then, the owner and officials had been trying to lure them into a temporary corral with no success. In October, the Maryland reported that a member of the zeal was found dead in an illegal snare trap near the farm.
While it is not clear who set the trap, Holly has been charged with animal cruelty. According to court records obtained by DCist, the charges were related to the deceased zebra that was caught in the trap, and another dead zebra that was discovered on the property. Additionally, Holly's exotic animal breeding business had been cited by the U.S. Department of Agriculture for more than 100 violations of the Animal Welfare Act.

Today's grammar checkers come in two flavors!
Grammar checker (offline) apps provide features such as "Interactive Checking" which actually means "check-as-you-type". Interactive Checking allows you to correct spelling, grammar, and punctuation errors on the fly as you work in your original document instead of waiting until you are finished and then doing a full check after your writing session is over. Online grammar checkers cannot have "Interactive Checking" because the web browser is the secondary document that you had to copy and paste your original text into! And then, you must copy and paste back from the web browser document back into the original document again after you are finished. Confusing? Yes!
Grammar checker (offline) apps are downloads and exist on your computer. The apps can be used anytime and anywhere because you are not tied to having an online internet connection. Nonetheless, online Grammar services work only when an internet connection is available. Imagine having to go to an internet coffee cafe just to check and edit your document or doctorate. The online checkers are usually very expensive if you consider paying about $50 for just the use of the service for one month.
All current grammar checker variations are derived in some way from the few first generation grammar checkers of the 1980's. The first generation grammar checkers set the current standards and features beyond earlier style checkers. These include Sensible Grammar (the very first #1), Correct Grammar, and, RightWriter. Later Microsoft #2, WordPerfect #3, and other companies either acquired those products or purchased derivatives of their code. What you see today is some varied form of the first generation of applications. Some of these companies sold or licensed out derivatives of the derivatives and flooded the market with new products. And so many of these products don't do what they claim to do. Many original developers have since passed the torch but not their expertise.
Most online grammar checker services are actually the same product. In other words, many of these checkers have the same guts with a different wrapper and are very much equivalent. Generally, these services license the spelling and grammar engine from another company. Some "wannabe get-rich-quick" companies try to leverage together a commercial product rather quickly with free open source code. This code creates a brain-dead style check product that would not even realistically qualify to be available in the 1980's. Be aware of this. Because these services usually pop up out of nowhere, very little information is available on them and where they originated. Online and marketing hype plus search engine manipulation generally drive the sales of these services. This ultimately explains the reason for the plethora of these online subscription services. True rigidly-tested grammar checkers are very complex, are very difficult to program, and actually take decades to create. Don't hesitate to inquire where the code originated before you make a purchase. Ask for a complete error rule list and error list samples for each rule.
Don't be fooled by the hype! Some of these products are internet hoaxes and scams. Some even break FCC rules. One in particular has 157 Better Business Bureau complaints as of the time of this writing. And one company has bizarre terms in their legal terms of service: "YOU MAY NOT CHECK MORE THAN 300 DOCUMENTS OR 150,000 WORDS IN ANY 30-DAY PERIOD OR 100 DOCUMENTS OR 50,000 WORDS IN ANY 24-HOUR PERIOD." According to the terms, your writing work belongs to the online service company once you use it. Forget about your privacy and copyrights.
Most people have a lack of knowledge of the quality of grammar checkers and follow the crowd and the illusion of popularity. Some of the online companies use internet social media, planted journalists, and deceptive internet business practices to blindly herd people and college universities who "know very little". One service recruits bloggers for publicity and web presence. And the list goes on and on.
In summary, be careful, spend your money wisely, avoid the snake-oil salesman, and own a useful writing tool instead of wasting money on a costly subscription!
Presently, Grammarian PRO2 X is the only original grammar checker with the original engineer/researcher/developer (from the 80's). Linguisoft is the current publisher.
#2 Microsoft Corp.acquired Correct Grammar (from Houghton Mifflin) in 1992. Correct Grammar's code was also licensed by other third parties.
#3 WordPerfect Corp. acquired a rudimentary style checker called "Grammitik" in 1992.

Samaria National Park plays host to a particularly rich fauna.
· Agrimi, the cretan wild goat (Capra aegagrus cretica), which is the largest mammal on the island of Crete, belongs to the order of Artiodactyla. It is the species-symbol of the Gorge of Samaria and of the White Mountains generally, for the protection of which, mainly, the region was declared a National Park. Apart from that, it represents a symbol, not only of the White Mountains, but of the island of Crete, while it has been strongly related to the personality and temperament of the Cretans.
It is a species found in mountainous areas. Its biotopes range from dry mountains and alpine areas, to rocky sites with brushwood, near coniferous forests. A characteristic of the species ecology is its preference in areas with slopes greater than 30%. According to recent genetic analysis on tissues of agrimi, compared to sequences of wild and domestic caprines showed that the agrimi is not a subspecies of the wild goat of the Middle East, while it is closely related to the wild goats that were brought to the island by the first settlers, during the Neolithic period (Gila Kahila Bar-Gal, Patricia Smith, Eitan Tchernov, Charles Greenblatt, Pierre Ducos, Armelle Gardeisen and Liora Kolska Horwitz, Genetic evidence for the origin of the agrimi goat (Capra aegagrus cretica), Journal of Zoology (2002), 256:3:369-377 Cambridge University Press). Today, the population of the agrimi is restricted to the region of the White Mountains, while populations are preserved on the islands of Agioi Theodoroi, Moni, Siapenza, Agioi Pantes, and Atalandonisi.
· Cretan white-toothed shrew (Croccidura zimmermani), a rare and not well studied species that lives at altitudes greater than 1.150 meters, although it can be found at lower altitudes, as well. It is the only endemic mammal species of Crete.
· The Cretan wildcat (Felis sylvestris cretensis), is a species the name of which is surrounded by mystery. It is an animal that one cannot easily set eyes upon. It was considered to be an extinct species, until 1996, when scientists from the University of Perugia, working with the Natural History Museum of Crete, succeeded in capturing a live animal. It bears distinctive dark coloured rings on its tail and is considerably larger in size than the common cat. It is protected by the Washington Convention (CITES) on International Trade of Endangered Species.
· The Crete Spiny Mouse (Acomys minοus), is a species whose european populations are concentrated in Crete.
· The bearded vulture (Gypaetus barbatus), is one of the rarest birds in Europe. It is a kind of vulture, with a wingspan reaching up to 2.80 meters. It bears a deep orange color on its breast and under parts, which is acquired by rubbing against calcareous rocks containing iron oxides. In areas with lack of rocks containing iron oxides, the breast and under parts of the bearded vulture are white. It is the only species in the world to feed almost entirely on bones, which it drops from a great height, in order to break them in smaller pieces, going after them in a spiraling descent. It then swallows the small bones whole and its stomach, which contains powerful gastric fluids, digests them easily. It is a species that prefers areas of high altitudes. The female lays two eggs, and incubates them for 55-57 days. Today, the bearded vulture survives only in Crete, while the White Mountains are honoured to play host to 2 of the 3 breeding pairs of the greek population.
· The Griffon vulture (Gyps fulvus), is the most common type of vulture. It is a large and heavy bird of prey, with a wingspan of approximately 2.60 meters. It bears a bald head with a collar of short lanceolate feathers at the base of the neck. It flies in large slow circles, taking advantage of the warm updrafts. In Greece, it is estimated that live approximately 400 breeding pairs. The Griffon vulture feeds on dead animals (scavenger).
· The spider Macrothele cretica, is an endemic species of the region and one of the few global protected invertebrates by the IUCN.


VANCOUVER – A new report by Ecojustice is calling on mayors across BC to lead at a local level and recognize residents' rights to a healthy environment.
Restoring the Balance: Recognizing Environmental Rights in British Columbia, provides a toolkit for governments and citizens alike which outlines how these crucial rights can be established. The report examines the growing global phenomena of recognizing environmental rights, and highlights the recent trend towards municipal declarations of environmental rights.
The report has been sent to 188 mayors in British Columbia, including Vancouver mayor Gregor Robertson, who recently launched a strategy to make Vancouver the world's greenest city by 2020.
In 2005 Vancouver became one of 107 cities from around the world that pledged to recognize the right of all members of society to a "clean, healthy, and safe" environment by signing the Urban Environmental Accord. Vancouver's renewed this commitment as part of its Bright Green Future Initiative.
"We hope that the city of Vancouver will continue to set an example for other BC communities to follow by fulfilling these promises to recognize environmental rights, and adopting a declaration of environmental rights. This is a chance for Vancouver to lead on the municipal front by showing that a healthy environment is not just a goal, it's a right all residents deserve," said Venton.

St. Louis on the Air host Don Marsh and St. Louis Public Radio reporter Willis Ryder Arnold highlight one of the top five St. Louis Tiny Desk picks: Kenny DeShields, a "soulternative" artist from St. Louis.
Mississippi-born Kenny DeShields grew up hoping to make a life in song. As a kid he sang in church groups and learned to play jazz and classical piano. His music often balances between secular and religious themes.
He's an artist-in-residence at The Crossing church and recently returned from playing a show at the Bluebird Café in Tennessee. DeShields calls his music "soulternative" – a bridge between "churchy sound and roots music" – and draws inspiration from a slate of artists that came to prominence in the mid '90s, including Erykah Badu, Ms. Lauryn Hill and D'Angelo. He hopes people are able to draw inspiration from his music either to chase down their dreams or find strength in their feelings.
Kenny DeShields discusses developing his sound - soulternative - in St. Louis and the story behind his Tiny Desk submission.
DeShields' "That's When You Love" was written after a massive fight with a friend and collaborator. After working on music together for years the two had a disagreement that ruptured their relationship. DeShields said the lyrics came to him late one night, suggested by a higher power.
At first he fought the impulse, but late that night, he woke up with the song's melody running through his head. Over the past couple years he's perfected the tune, playing it with a full band, or stripping it down for acoustic performances. And the story has a happy ending: recently, DeShields and his friend forgave each other and renewed their friendship.

The poll found that 80 per cent of us don't apply enough sunscreen before going out in the sun. This is the approach recommended for three key reasons of which the public should be aware: to make sure that the product is fully absorbed before skin is exposed to sun, to help reduce the chances of areas of skin being missed, and to ensure a thick enough layer is applied.
South West Lincolnshire CCG is highlighting the signs and symptoms of melanoma during Sun Awareness Week. The most common sign of melanoma is the appearance of a new mole or a change in an existing mole. This can happen anywhere on the body, but the back, legs, arms and face are most commonly affected.
"We would urge any patients to go to see their GP if they notice changes to any moles that they have. You can help protect yourself from sun damage by using sunscreen and dressing sensibly in the sun. Sunbeds and sunlamps should also be avoided.
Regularly checking your moles and freckles can help lead to an early diagnosis and increase your chances of successful treatment. In most cases, a suspicious mole will be surgically removed and studied to see if it is cancerous. This is known as a biopsy. You may also have a test to check if melanoma has spread elsewhere in your body. This is known as a sentinel node biopsy."


At last, the Big Day!
After more than a decade, RELIANCE moves off her shipping cradle and on to the display stand. Can you believe it?!!!
We moved RELIANCE to the back of the shed under the chain falls; we hoisted her out of the shipping cradle and said goodbye to that cradle. Our head rigger Laura holds RELIANCE aloft with one hand.
As you can tell from their work, our female team mates are very talented, great team members, and very strong! Laura holds the bow up so Steve can position Bill's display stand under the keel blocks.
Bill carefully lowers RELIANCE onto the 1,500 lb. steel plate while Keith inserts drift pins to assure alignment of bolt holes (since Keith measured and drilled the holes in the steel plate, he is actually out of the picture saying a couple of "Hail, Mary's": the secret of Notre Dame engineering, I'm told).
Steve and Laura tighten the bolts in place, noting how perfect the fit is – no shims or alignment tricks needed!
RELIANCE's profile is revealed; beautiful, amazing form!
RELIANCE is moved back to our work space and "The Guy Upstairs" Dave miraculously appears to inspect and approve our work.
Then Keith and Sandy replaced all the parts that had been stripped off RELIANCE for the full evolution.
Bill has started building the grand stand to top it off.
As part of the celebration, we have a Tuesday crew photo opportunity moment; unfortunately, camera shy Laura has gone to another job.
This respite is short, however; soon, everyone is back to work. Except, apparently, for Sandy, whom we're sure needs some relaxation time!

Just Announced: 2021 PuSh Rally
In the midst of great uncertainty for the cultural sector, for PuSh, and for the world, we are pleased to announce that two of Vancouver's most celebrated theatre artists, Theatre Replacement's Maiko Yamamoto and Neworld Theatre's Marcus Youssef, will join the PuSh Festival as Curators of the newly formed 2021 PuSh Rally. The Rally is an online series of artist encounters and conversations, international artist presentations, and promises a surprise performance or two. It is designed to respond directly to this deeply uncertain moment, and to rally and connect PuSh Festival audiences, artists, and industry leaders in Vancouver, across the country, and around the globe.
About the 2021 PuSh Rally Curators:
Maiko Yamamoto
