Russia and China, two permanent members of the UN Security Council, are boycotting talks on a British resolution to address the Rohingya refugee crisis – and may veto any move that would force Myanmar to take affirmative action or impose sanctions if nothing is done to address the issue, Reuters and other news outlets say.
A vote on a resolution in the 15-member UN Security Council would need nine in favor and no vetoes from any of its five permanent members — the US, Britain, France, Russia and China — to pass.
Russia’s UN Ambassador Vassily Nebenzia told Reuters that the move was “inappropriate, untimely and useless”, while China’s Ma Zhaoxu did not comment.
The resolution, if passed, would put a timeline on Myanmar allowing the return of more than 700,000 Rohingya Muslim refugees from Bangladesh and seeking accountability for rights abuses perpetrated by the Myanmar military during violent crackdowns on the civilian population in northern Rakhine State in 2016 and 2017.
But according to a special Reuters report, dated December 18, any such repatriation seems extremely unlikely as satellite images show that new settlements have been built in areas previously populated by Rohingyas and information from the ground indicates that non-Muslims from Rakhine State and other parts of Myanmar have already been resettled there.
In Bangladesh, housing that is much more solid than the huts in the refugee camps near Cox’s Bazar has been built on an island off the southeastern coast, where at least some of the Rohingyas could be housed.
According to observers in Bangladesh and Myanmar, all this means that a Palestine-style situation with a permanent refugee population could be emerging across the border in Bangladesh.
Bilateral deal opposed by UN agencies
The latest move in the United Nations comes after UN agencies opposed an agreement last month between Bangladesh and Myanmar to start repatriating Rohingya refugees to Rakhine state.
China welcomed the bilateral deal agreed on October 30 to begin the returns to Myanmar in mid-November. However, UNHCR said that conditions in Rakhine state were “not yet conducive for returns”.
And the UN’s human rights investigator on Myanmar warned that any refugees sent back to Rakhine state would face a “high risk of persecution”.

If you have identified that alcohol is causing problems in your life, you may need help. Treatment for alcoholism in Ohio can involve everything from outpatient treatment to inpatient treatment. Detox can be managed by medical personal to decrease any physical effects.
Going to an inpatient rehab facility means living at the facility while all aspects of an addiction or a co-occurring disorder get addressed.

Typical inpatient rehab stays are approximately one month long. The treatment involves medical supervision, therapy, and future planning.

Rehab is a combination of detoxing the body, rehabilitation, and recovery. There is therapy, aftercare, and support during the entire process. While substance abuse can take over a person’s life, it is something that can also be overcome with help from professionals at Ohio rehabs.

Well, at least she's getting her community service done.
Lindsay Lohan showed up to the TLC Women's Shelter in New York City yesterday in a low-cut LBD.
And yes, that is a bra you see peeking out of her dress.
It's not exactly what we would wear to garden, but then again, we're not Lindsay.
Hey, at least she wore sneakers.
NEWS: Jane Fonda Offers Lindsay Lohan Advice: 'Come Live with Me'
Earlier this month, Judge Mark A. Young told the 28-year-old actress that "there will be consequences" if she doesn’t finish up her court-ordered 125 hours of community service.
The mandate stems from the three misdemeanors Lindsay was charged with in 2013 due to her 2012 car accident in Santa Monica, Calif., and was already an addition to her original order of 240 hours.
Some of the hours Lindsay tried to submit during her first round of community service, which included time at the Los Angeles County morgue, were declared invalid by a judge.

Since returning to her native New York from a stint in London, Lindsay has fulfilled some of her requirement by putting in time at the Duffield Children’s Center in Brooklyn’s Fort Greene neighborhood.

7 cats found in 'deplorable' conditions in mobile home, sheriff says
A woman faces animal cruelty charges after authorities discovered seven cats living in "deplorable" conditions, Butler County Sheriff Richard Jones said.
An area animal shelter is now looking for suitable homes for the cats.
Authorities with the Sheriff's Office and the county's dog warden responded to a home in the 200 block of Ringling Street at the Countryside Mobile Home Park, where officials said they received reports of several cats living in deplorable conditions.
Authorities said they made contact with Carla Lloyd, who told officials that she would capture feral outdoor cats and put them in her trailer.
Deputies said they discovered seven cats inside, four of them were inside medium wire dog cages.
The other cats were "running inside the trailer with floors covered with empty opened cans of cat food and large piles of soiled cat litter."
The cats were taken to the Animal Friends Humane Society in Middletown Thursday. Shelter officials said they are looking for placement options for these cats.
They are not socialized, officials said. A good fit for the cats would be a barn or business looking for a "mouser," shelter officials added.
Lloyd was charged with seven misdemeanor counts of cruelty to a companion animal.


Amsterdam housing corporations are working hard in The Hague lobbying for higher rent increases than was agreed upon on in the Housing Agreement.
Worried Rotterdam tenants started collecting signatures on Wednesday to petition for a referendum on the municipality's plans to demolish some 20 thousand low-cost rental housing. The municipality plans to replace the cheap apartments with homes for families and professionals
Rent prices for homes in the private sector are rapidly on the rise, especially in Amsterdam, according to figures from rental site Pararius. Pararius director Jasper de Groot attributes it to an "unhealthy market" with a vast shortage in private sector rental homes. "If you look at the housing supply, then only about 5 percent of the homes are rental homes in the private sector. That is way too little", he said.
The tax authorities may not hand over income details about social housing tenants to housing corporations, the administrative division of the Council of State ruled on Wednesday.
Minister Stef Blok of Housing submitted a legislative proposal in which asylum seekers will no longer automatically be given priority in the social housing market
Most Housing aldermen in the 35 largest municipalities in the Netherlands believe that a change in the social housing police is necessary. They think that Housing Minister Stef Blok's idea of solving the social housing shortage problem by addressing so-called skewed living - people renting too cheaply or expensively in relation to their income - will not work.
Housing corporation De Key in Amsterdam has asked its 997 group housing residents whether they would be willing to have refugee with a residency permit live with them. According to the corporation, they have already received some positive feedback.
The Huurdersvereniging Amsterdam and housing corporations had a tense debate on the continuing shortage of social housing, and their increasing rents on Thursday night. A decision was made that the HA, the housing corporations and the Amsterdam municipality should meet to discuss new cooperation agreements in the housing market, in which less social housing should disappear, Het Parool reports.
The PvdA has agreed with coalition partner VVD's proposal to no longer give recognized refugees priority in the distribution of social housing, on the condition that enough container homes are built to encourage the flow through asylum centers. The coalition has also adjusted their wording for the approach - the Netherlands is getting a "sober and fair" asylum policy.
Those seeking asylum in the Netherlands should have no access to the current collection of rent-controlled social housing on the market, VVD parliamentarian Roald van der Linde told the AD. “Refugees that come from a warzone must be happy with whatever they get,” he firmly stated.
It is expected that as many as 43,000 asylum seekers will have a residency permit status allowing them to qualify for social housing in the Netherlands. The prediction comes from a brief prepared by Justice Secretary Klaas Dijkhoff that he gave to BNR, the broadcaster reported.
By way of an adjustment to the points system, thousands of tenants will be looking forward to a reduction in their rent by up to 200 euros. Housing associations and commercial landlords are not obligated to take these initiatory obligations strictly upon themselves, Housing Association spokesperson Marcel Trip van de Woonbond told AD.nl that tenants should not assume that their rent would automatically be lowered, they themselves should conduct home inspections and submit this to their landlords.
Housing corporations are planning unorthodox measures to provide housing to tens of thousands of refugees with a residency permit in the coming months. State Secretary Klaas Dijkhoff agrees that unorthodox measures are needed to find homes for refugees.
Young single moms are having a hard time finding somewhere to stay in Amsterdam. Because they have a child, they do not qualify for so-called youth housing and the waiting lists for social housing are very long.
Coalition parties PvdA and VVD can not agree on how to address the growing demand for rental housing caused by the ever increasing number of refugees. They do, however, agree that Dutch residents should get priority when it comes to rental housing, and not refugees.
Stakeholders are concerned that a combination of increasing rental property sail and the small amount of new social rent homes being built will soon lead to a shortage of social housing.
The waiting lists and waiting times for social housing in Amsterdam will only get longer, according to professor Peter Boelhouwer and emeritus professor Hugo Priemus, both at TU Delft.
The Amsterdam Tenants Association (ATA), housing corporations and the municipality set a goal of making the accommodation in the city more affordable for low- and middle-income groups. The aim of the agreement between the parties is the construction of 6,000 new social housing units over the next five years.
Rent prices for most social housing will increase less sharply from next year. Aedes, the association for housing corporations which represents about 90 percent of the corporations in the Netherlands, and Woonbond, the association for tenants, have reached an agreement to increase rents with less than the current legal maximum.
A tenant in Amsterdam who placed his social housing apartment on Airbnb rental service now has to vacate the house within two weeks, reports RTL Nieuws. The investigation showed that the house was sublet for at least 130 days, the housing firm's lawyer said based on reviews Airbnb guests left for the apartment.
Ymere, the Amsterdam-based housing corporation, is going to evict 180 households from their social rental homes in the next five years. The reasoning behind this is that these homes will be renovated to be sold or rented out in the private sector.
A proposal by the Labour Party and the ChristenUnie, to raise the income threshold for social housing, has been adopted by the House Tuesday.
The housing federation is pleased with the proposal of PvdA and CU, because they also addressed the issue earlier, announced director Paping. If not for high-rent homes, people with modest middle income have nowhere to turn now
The Netherlands is taking a different approach on its housing policies. According to theguardian, around 54% of Dutch households reside in rented accommodation. Only 13% rent from private property owners.

These were awesome!! I cut up 4 large potatoes, which is what we had, with a mandolin into julienne cut fries. Made the batter and was so thinking this would not work... the 1/2 cup water was way too little and I ended up adding more like a cup or cup and a 1/2 until it was thin enough to drizzle. I put that into a large bowl and just imersed as many fries as I could, coating them all really well. Then just picked up a fry, shook off the excess and plopped it into the hot oil. As soon as my boyfriend tasted one he wanted more. He ended up throwing more than one fry in at a time and they do clump up pretty bad, they are easier to seperate if they cook a bit first. But honestly, the clumped up fries were the best, lol.

SINGER Sharleen Spiteri is to make her big screen debut playing actress Dawn Steele's wee sister in a Scottish movie.
The Texas star is making a move into films with a lead in Between Weathers, due to be shot next year on the tiny island of Fetlar in Shetland.
Aberdonian Jim Brown, who is producing and directing the movie, felt from the birth of the project that Sharleen, 43, and Wild At Heart star Dawn, 35, were perfect for the parts.
Jim said: "It's a major coup for us.
"I believe it's a natural progression for someone with the personality and presence of Sharleen to move into films, and Dawn is one of the best actresses to come out of Scotland for many a year.
"They were always the first choice for the sisters, who are a major focus of the film. We wrote with them in mind."
Between Weathers, from Aberdeen-based B4 Films, has been hailed as the saviour of Fetlar.
Filming is planned for May and the 70 cast and crew will double its population of 69.
The movie focuses on a man called Thomas who, through the internet, misleads the world into thinking his island is home to a bird thought to be extinct.
Hundreds of twitchers arrive and the island becomes a global sensation.
The romantic film is a David and Goliath tale of one islander's fight against the might of an American millionaire who plans to buy out the locals and build a golf course on their island.

Charlotte Coleman, a British film actress best remembered in the United States as Scarlett, the cheerily punkish roommate of Hugh Grant's Charles in the 1994 comedy "Four Weddings and a Funeral," died Nov. 14 at her home in London. She was 33.
The cause was an asthma attack, newspapers in London reported.
Born into an artistic family, she attended acting workshops and appeared on children's television at age 8. As a teenager in the early 1980s, she became known for portraying oddball characters.

4 dead bodies were recovered and 19 people have been rescued by NDRF and SDRF in Madhya Pradesh’s Vidisha District after at least 30 people fall down in a Well on Thursday evening.
The tragic incident took place on Thursday evening at Ganjbasoda village in Madhya Pradesh’s Vidisha district. While trying to rescue an 8-year-old girl who falls down in the well while playing, several people fell into the 40 feet deep well after its boundary wall caved in.
According to villagers, an 8-year-old girl fell into the deep well while playing with her friends in the evening. Soon, a huge crowd gathered around the well. The people were trying to rescue the little girl, while many were watching the rescue activity. All of a sudden, due to the pressure, the boundary wall of the well caved in and more than 30 people fell into the well.
Since Thursday evening, the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) and State Disaster Response Force (SDRF) have been continuously working at the place. Search and rescue operations are going on. As per media reports, 4 bodies have been recovered and 19 people have been rescued till 9 am this morning.
The exact toll has not come out yet. ” NDRF and SDRF are working. The land here is prone to subsidence, it’s happening again and again. It will be difficult to say the exact toll until the operation concludes,” Vishwas Sarang, the guardian minister of the district told ANI.
Several people have been admitted to Hospital. Madhya Pradesh’s CM Shivraj Singh Chouhan has ordered a probe into the accident.

The Traffic Lights
In the city's heart, they stand bold, Traffic lights, colors that unfold. Green, a signal to surge ahead, On roads where journeys are fed. Amber warns, a gentle plea, Slow down, be cautious, patiently. And red, a moment to pause and wait, As life's symphony orchestrates. In the dance of cars, they guide with grace, Traffic lights, the city's embrace.

(GIS World, February/January 1991)
…is that seemingly endless drone masking what would otherwise be a clear understanding of technology
If you have been following the Beyond Mapping series some strange things have been suggested‑‑ map‑ematics, effective distance, map derivative, weighted windows, optimal path density, and net weighted visual exposure density surface. "You can't do that to a map; that's disgusting; are you sure it's legal?", may have been but a few of your comments. Technobabble. Just a bunch of technobabble.
Professor Hough of San Francisco State University's Communication Arts Department sums it up‑‑ "GIS is not just warm, woolen socks." He explains that it is a change in mapping (and communications for that matter), like the cocoon to the caterpillar and butterfly. Ugly, but effective. To those on the outside, the cocoon just sits there. To those on the inside, there is total upheaval and complete restructuring. Such is the metamorphose brought on by the digital map.
Well, maybe, maybe not. Most of the practical applications of GIS involve automating current manual procedures. Correct that‑‑ most involve investing in a database which, hopefully, will eventually automate the current manual procedures. A lot of work, to do what we have been doing for years. The perceived benefit, once GIS is on‑line, is that we can do it faster, more detailed and colorful. The butterfly is obviously superior to the worm. But more importantly, it is radically different. The understanding of the differences and developing new procedures is The “behind the scene” revolution of GIS in the 1990's. It's not business as usual.
Consider the familiar map overlay operation. Suppose you are interested in locating your company's forest management parcels containing both Douglas fir trees and Cohasset soil. In the 1960's, your cartographic solution was to overlay both maps on a light‑table and sketch. The result was a single map depicting the intersection. Good spatial characterization. However, if acreage estimates were required, hours of planimeter or dot grid work were required.
Your statistical procedure more likely involved searching a data base. Data such as acreage, timber and soil types for each management parcel was written on a card. Holes were punched along the edges to summarize the information. A geographic search simply involved passing a long needle through the appropriate edge position. When lifted, the parcels meeting that condition fell out of the stack. Repeat with the 'sieved' subset, and the cards containing both conditions fell out‑‑ Douglas fir and Cohasset soil. Add up the acreage. Good statistical characterization.
A couple of problems persisted‑‑ the procedures were tedious and disjoint. You could spend hours drafting and calculating for even a simple query over a small area. So what, the procedures are as comfortable as a pair of warm, woolen socks. Some folks even argue that the time involved is peanuts in comparison to the hours of creating, caressing and cursing an automated data base. Valid argument. Each of us knows our most efficient mode.
But the problem of the two manual systems being disjoint is critical. It is not just a matter of time. It's the nature of the information derived‑‑ an answer to a specific question, a dead end. It doesn't become part of the data base. It cannot be easily shared with others and their subsequent analyzes incorporated. Your drafting and calculating, for all you know, may be repeated the following week by a colleague down the hall.
In large part, the capacity of the computer to store and share information is what tipped the scales from index cards to data base management. At least in the beginning, it certainly wasn't efficiency and ease of use. The transition was (is?) painful for most of us. Now the 'Information Age' is being heralded as the modern equivalent of the Industrial Age. Not merely a progression of technology, as much as a radical departure.
It's like the automobile. At first, it was just an engine affixed to a wagon. Aspirations for the new fanged thing were to do the work of a team of horses. Nothing more; nothing less. But as the car evolved, new demands for speed and capacity continuously redefined the 'automated wagon.' Entirely new concepts, such as aerodynamics, four‑wheel drive and catalytic converters, have become commonplace. Nostalgia aside, isn't the car a vast improvement on the wagon? Although different, it's not that complicated to learn to drive a car over a driving a team of horses. You get there a lot quicker. And can do more.
The transition from the horse to horsepower, however, required both personal and social investments. GIS is placing similar demands. Your challenge is to understand the differences between traditional map processing and apply these new procedures in creative ways. But that's not enough. It's like the 80 mph Bugatti. Awesome, but it's useless unless there are 80 mph roads. A washboard, wagon trail not only limits your potential, but is down‑right dangerous.
That's where we are with GIS. The equivalent of supersonic (or supernatural, your choice) procedures for map analysis are in place. Most folks opt to keep things down to earth and apply GIS in traditional ways. Those that choose the high road soon find that the base data is as rocky as a wagon trail. Our historical concepts of mapped data are rooted in the map as a generalized image for human viewing. But GIS considers maps as rather large sets of numbers poised for quantitative analysis. Creation of an image is just one of the things you can do. Statistical and mathematical analytics comprise a multitude of other things.
GIS, from this perspective, is the blend of cartographic and numerical processing that was missing in the 1960's. The concept that it is a 'cash register' in which transactions on the landscape are recorded is one manifestation of the link. Tremendously useful, but challenges neither the basic procedures nor the basic data form. The ensuing articles in Beyond Mapping will do both. Even something as intuitively obvious as overlaying a couple of maps will be contorted into whether it is a 'point‑by‑point', 'region‑wide', or 'map‑wide' operation. Concern for both spatial and thematic 'error propagation' is also a must. Technobabble. TECHNOBABBLE! ...but it's interesting. Sort of like those electronic woolen socks with a nine volt battery you slip into your ski boots.
What’s Needed to Go Beyond Mapping
(GIS World, April/March 1991)
... “to boldly go where no man has gone before” (StarTrek), I had better pack a toothbrush
GIS is a workhorse. It manages our spatial data. It provides timely updates to our data bases. Creates colorful and valuable map products. In short, it is rapidly becoming an integral part of our record keeping and report generation... 'Useful.' However, to some, it is an ill-tempered race horse, moving at breakneck speed. Expensive and cantankerous at best. The domain of the overly-indulgent rich... 'Frivolous.' To others, it is a Pegasus, whose wings soar us to new heights. A radical departure from traditional mapping. With entirely new concepts... 'Dreams.'
In reality, it is all three. The digital nature of GIS maps provides the skeleton for each perspective. Once you have a computer-compatible map, only your imagination limits its use. Well, that and your software vendor. Like horses, GIS software comes in a wide variety of sizes, shapes and colors. A Clydesdale just won't make it at a fox hunt with the queen. Nor is a thoroughbred suited for the plow. In selecting your 'best-fitted beast', its functionality in large part that determines its appropriate use. The overlaying and geographic searches of the mapping and data management functions of a GIS are relatively familiar to most current and aspiring users. But what is needed for GIS modeling (map analysis)? What takes a GIS beyond mapping?
Below is a checklist of the analytic capabilities that go beyond the basic GIS procedures. It is designed to spur discussion among users and vendors, as well as provide a structure for both past and forthcoming Beyond Mapping articles.
'If I wanted it all, I would want...'
- Basic Math -- the most frequently used buttons on your pocket calculator. Add, subtract, multiply, divide, average, etc.
- Advanced Math -- the rest of the buttons. Such as the trigonometry functions, powers, roots, etc.
- 'Macro' Command Language -- the ability to branch, loop, and test within a sequence of map processing commands.
- Descriptive Statistics -- describe a single map variable or set of map features. For example, a standard normal variable (SNV) map identifies statistically 'unusual' areas and is computed by—
SNV= ((Xobs - Xmean)/Xstdev) * 100
where Xobs is the observed value at a particular location; Xmean is the map wide average of the variable; and Xstdev is the standard deviation of the variable. Another example is the calculation of the average for one mapped variable (e.g., slope) for a set of map features (e.g., timber harvesting parcels). A basic set of statistical procedures include the frequency counts, average, standard deviation, coefficient of variation, minimum, maximum, mode, median, diversity, deviation and proportion similar.
- Comparative Statistics -- compare two or more map variables or sets of map features. For example, a simple t-test can be used to compare the similarity (coincidence) between two maps. A basic set of statistical procedures include simple and frequency weighted crosstabs, Chi-squared, t, F, and Scheffe tests.
- Predictive Statistics -- establish relationships among map variables. For example, a simple linear regression can be developed for predicting one map variable from a set of other map variables. A basic set of statistical operators include clustering and simple linear, multiple, and curvilinear regressions.
- Simple Distance -- calculates the shortest straight line between two points (Pythagorean Theorem).
- Buffer -- identifies all locations within a specified distance of a point, line or areal feature, such as all locations within 100 feet of a stream.
- Narrowness -- determines 'constrictions' as the shortest cord connecting opposing edges of an areal feature, such as a forest opening.
- Simple Proximity -- identifies the shortest, straight line distance from a point, line or areal feature to all other locations in a mapped area. Similar to a series of 'buffers' of equal steps emanating from a feature like ripples in a pond.
- Weighted Proximity (Movement) -- identifies the shortest, but not necessarily straight line distance from a point, line or areal feature to all other locations in a mapped area. Distance is measured as a function of absolute and relative barriers affecting movement (friction). Similar to a 'travel-time' map in network analysis, yet movement is allowed over a continuous surface.
- Surface Configuration -- characterizes a continuous surface's form. A basic set includes slope, aspect and profile. An advanced set includes an array of engineering techniques such as grade, curvature and cut/fill.
- Roving Window Summary -- summarizes values within a specified vicinity around each location, such as the total number of houses within an eighth of a mile creating a housing density surface. A basic set of summary operators include total, average, standard deviation, coefficient of variation, maximum, minimum, mode, median, and diversity. Statistics comparing the center of window to its neighbors includes deviation and proportion similar.
- Interpolation -- computes an expected value for each map location (continuous surface) based on a set of point samples. A basic set includes weighted nearest neighbor and Kriging techniques.
- Inter-visibility -- identifies if two points are visually connected.
- Viewshed Delineation -- identifies all locations that are visually connected to a point, line or areal feature.
- Exposure Density -- determines how often each location is visually connected to a line or areal feature.
- Weighted Exposure Density -- calculates a weighted visual exposure value for each map location by considering the relative 'visual importance' of each viewing point, line or areal feature. For example, an area visually connected to a major highway will have a higher exposure value than another area connected the same number of times to a lightly travelled road.
- Simple Paths -- determines the 'best' route from one location to another along a set of lines (Network Analysis) or over a continuous surface. In the case of a terrain surface, it identifies water flow. In the case of a travel-time surface, it identifies the quickest path.
- Path Density -- counts the number of paths passing though each element of a network or continuous surface that optimally connects a set starting and finishing points. In the case of a terrain surface, it identifies confluence (channeling) of water flows. In the case of a travel-time surface, it identifies traffic confluence (heavily-used corridors), be it cars, hikers or elk.
- Weighted Path Density -- similar to normal path density, except each path is weighted by the volume of flow along the path.
- Convexity Index -- a measure of the boundary 'regularity' of an areal feature based on the ratio of its perimeter to its area.
- Fractal Geometry -- quantifies the 'complexity' of a feature's shape as an exponential relationship of its perimeter, area and fractal dimension.
- Spatial Integrity -- a measure of the 'intactness' of areal features relating holes and fragments of features forming the map mosaic, such as clear cuts in a forested landscape.
- Contiguity -- assesses the 'pattern' among groups of features, such as whether the clear cuts are clumped together or evenly distributed in the landscape.
- Inter-Feature Distance -- computes the average distance within a set of map features, such as individual parcels of endangered species habitat.
Whew! So that's all there is to it. At first glance, the advanced analysis 'grab-bag' may seem a bit overwhelming. It appears less of a workhorse, than a whole pack team, all pulling in different directions. But that's because it’s unfamiliar; not that's it all that tough. The majority of the concepts have been in your 'visceral' (if not your conscious state) for a long time. Heaven knows they have been in textbooks for years. They're waiting for you to apply them in innovative ways that take you beyond mapping. Just ask your software vendor.
Who Says You Can’t Teach an Old Dog New Tricks?
(GIS World, May 1991)
...but then again, it's about as tough to teach a new dog a new trick.
Now that I am older with several years under (and over) my belt, I am enamored with new tricks-- the GIS bag of tricks. I am an old forester who has evolved from cyber-phobiac to a cyber-philliac. Nothing is more fun than wrestling with a new perspective on the old venerable field of Forestry. I just can't pass up the chance to comment on this issue's theme of 'GIS in Natural Resources.' Before the word came down from GIS World strategists, I had planned an article on some little-used (esoteric?) analytical procedure like error propagation modeling or shape characterization using fractal geometry and other assorted techy stuff.
All that is going to have to wait. Let's talk about the real world-- the deep woods. The world of dirt and slopes and trees and fish. How about a new perspective on the old problem of timber harvesting and fish romance? You know, create an map that says "if you run your skidder over here, it will likely kill the spawning whoopee over there." (Note-- a skidder is a tractor-like thing that drags trees around in the woods... for any utility company CIO reader still around after last issue's theme).
Let's consider this harvest-stopping loggerhead between the fish and the forester. It's simple-- leave a 100' buffer around class two streams. That ought to save the sexy salmon... or will it? My bet is about the time you get your harvest plan drafted and hung on the wall, the local angling association will ask, "What would happen if, just to be on the safe side, you considered a 200' buffer?" A valid question. A real concern.
Worse yet, if you don't address it, chances are you will be asked the same question by the judge at an injunction hearing. But you already wore out a box of crayons (let alone your patience) drafting the 100' buffer plan. You don't have time to respond to every 'little' concern.
Like those dark moments in an old western before the cavalry arrives, not all is lost. GIS will save you. Just edit the 100 to 200 in your GIS model and rerun it. It will take you moments, and your silicon subordinate (computer) just minutes, to respond. Just as you thought, not much change in the plan. Why wouldn't the fisherman and judge believe you? You know these things. You’re an old hand when it comes to knowing what bears (and fish and owls) do in the woods. GIS is just another hoop they make you jump through. A waste of time. A waste of money. But it does cover your... ah, decisions.
You're a crafty old fox who knows what GIS is, and isn't. Old woods wisdom put's this new fanged technology in its place... a faster drafter. It's not a new trick, just an accelerated old trick. The old dog is happy with that. But more importantly, are the fish happy? Is your company's bottom line happy? My guess is that your old perspective on map analysis isn't helping either. I bet you're killing fish and loosing revenue at the same time... with your concept of a GIS you're just doing it faster.
We're not talking just trees and fish here, there is dirt in between. What you need is a realistic Sediment Loading Potential (SLP) model as outlined in figure 1. Let's apply some common sense. The farther away from the stream you keep the skidder, the less the sediment should cloud salmon romance. That's why the fisherman wanted to increase the buffer. But are all buffer-feet the same? Not by a long shot. If there are steep slopes of sparsely covered vegetation between your skidder and the fish, you had better be a lot farther away than couple of hundred feet. But, if gentle, vegetated terrain separates them, you could harvest well within a hundred feet of the stream. Your old trick, whether tediously or rapidly applied, killed the fish and robbed the logger. It's just not that simple and straight forward... 100 or 200 feet, your choice.
Figure 1. The top figure (a) shows a series of 100 foot buffers around a stream. Figure (b) shows a series of 'effective buffers' considering the slope and cover conditions of intervening terrain. The flowchart (c) depicts the Sediment Loading Model that identifies hazardous areas.
You need a new trick, like 'effective distance measurement.' This topic was driven into the ground several issues ago, but it's definitely applicable here (GW Vol. 2-5 through Vol. 3-2, Beyond Mapping column). We need a 'rubber ruler' that stretches in highly erodible places and shrinks in stable ones. The accompanying figure shows this effect. The map at the top calculates sediment loading potential as simply the inverse of the distance squared. You can do this with a ruler. But you would be hard pressed to create the more realistic map at the bottom which considers both intervening slope and cover conditions in assessing effective sediment loading distance.
GIS is more than just a faster mapper. It's more than a replacement for your old oak file cabinets. It's a technology providing new tools for resource management planning... spatial statistics, effective distance, optimal paths, visual exposure, to name but a few. But as impressive this new toolbox is, it is not the true revolution brought on by GIS. The real impact of GIS is the way we do business. It provides the means for the US Forest Service's "New Perspective" on forestry-- a capability for consensus building and conflict resolution.
All GIS models, whether simple or complex, have three characteristics. They are flexible, succinct, and dynamic. Once a model has been developed, it encourages the addition of new considerations and parameter weights. It almost shouts, "You want to try it a different way?" When is the last time your draftsperson demonstrated such flexibility? And in an agreeable manner to boot.
Computers, by nature, are stupid. They can do lot of things, but they don't know what to do. Each step has to be 'made perfectly clear.' This can be frustrating, but valuable in the long run. The GIS model becomes a clear statement of the analysis procedure. It succinctly summarizes the voluminous appendices of most reports. Note the flowchart at the bottom of the figure 1. It shows that the effective distance from streams is a function of the intervening slope and cover conditions. It takes sediment loading a step further, by considering the soil conditions... SLP= fn(slope, cover, soils). Or in other words, if you run your skidder on unstable soils you are likely to disturb the dirt. If this disturbance is effectively close to the stream, you got a problem. If it is effectively far away (even though it may be 'ruler' close), the sediment loading potential is low. This is common sense-- expressed in five simple sentences to the computer. The model encapsulates and demonstrates your rational thinking. Now the judge and angler can 'see' what you’re talking about.
Finally, GIS models are dynamic. They allow you to try different scenarios-- different perspectives. Suppose your model for harvest planning considers visual exposure, as well as slope and proximity to roads. The best parcels to log are those that are gently sloped, with good access and minimal visual exposure. What if I suggest that visual exposure is ten times more important than the engineering considerations? What parcels, if any, are no longer appropriate for harvesting? In philosophical space we might violently disagree. Every square foot appears to be contested. But do we disagree in geographic space? Where do we disagree? Which parcels are involved? Spatial answers, not ideological statements, are needed. You run the model with your perspective, and I will run it with mine. Subtract the two 'solution' maps and we will see where and how we disagree. That's information for conflict resolution. That's dialogue for consensus building. That's the GIS revolution.
So what's new in the natural resource management?. The seemingly un-natural technology of GIS-- that's what is new. To the old forester, it at first appears to cramp his or her management style. Like the flower in the 'Little Shop of Horrors' it just keeps growing as it shouts "Feed Me, Feed Me, FEED ME!"... Digitize, Digitize, DIGITIZE! But it's not just a new layer of record-keeping. It's more than mapping and spatial data management. It's a new toolbox allowing you to plan in more realistic manner. In fact, it's a whole new perspective on the resource decision-making environment. I bet you can learn a new trick or two.
Frankly My Dear, I Don’t Give a Damn (Rhett to Scarlet, in Gone with the Wind)
(GIS World, June 1991)
The last section introduced the idea that GIS is more than what 'meets the eye' …more than a computer mapping system. More than a spatial data base management system. Even more than an analytic toolbox. These capabilities are its parts‑‑ but the whole, in this case, is much more than the sum of its parts. GIS, in the final analysis, is a communication device.
Like Rhett, you may not give a damn. All this new technology is more trouble than it is worth‑‑ just like Scarlet. But there is still that spark that attracts you. Maybe, just maybe, there is something to all this GIS infatuation. You have heard bits and pieces of its proclaimed capabilities. How it is going to change the way you do things. But it certainly is a strange beast, not unlike a Platypus. There are bits and pieces of disciplines that are familiar, like computers and drafting and statistics; but when assembled in its strange way, it is hard to understand how it keeps afloat. That's GIS‑‑ a strange, but compelling beast.
As a technology, I can take it or leave it. It is interesting, but often seems academic, or even esoteric. It's just technology for technology sake, isn't it? Or does it really improve decision‑making? Or just improve the vendor's bottom line? A real question. A real concern... for 'real' folks.
Consider our current policy formation and decision‑making environments. Professor Vlachos, a natural resources futurist at Colorado State University, identifies three inputs to this process‑‑ the Science, Social and Legal components of society (see figure 1). Loosely paraphrased, he states that a delicate balance of all three is necessary to reach an effective decision. For example (my example, his are much better, but his lively delivery is required), assume the populace of a developing country is suffering from a dietary deficiency in animal protein. Also, assume the country has vast areas of natural grasslands. Common sense (and voluminous tables of research from the beef council) point to the easy technical solution of cattle production.
That's it‑‑ an obvious, and technically supportable solution. But wait a moment. There are indigenous cultural and religious taboos against killing cows. And the legal concept of private property is non‑existent. Nor is there a precedent for land ownership and fencing. In short, the plan receives high technical marks and appears acceptable from that single perspective. But, viewed differently, it fails the social and legal tests. A decision bust.
In a less obvious fashion, the necessary balance among the three decision sectors is what is upsetting our current decision‑ making. A technical solution often meets social acceptance in a loggerhead. The result is an injunction and the legal sector is called upon to make the management decision. Black robes and a litany of conflicting testimony replaces effective science and social inputs.
Facing the real prospect of litigation, we resort to a state of 'analysis paralysis.' We constantly search for one more decimal point accuracy to the technically 'perfect' solution. "If we could just get more data, the answer would be obvious." Don't manage the woods, inventory them. It's like placing a sign at park headquarters‑‑ 'closed for inventory.'
But maybe your data and analysis is good enough. Not perfect, but good enough to make a decision. The problem could be the decision environment. What is lacking, is a capability to clearly communicate rational thinking and different perspectives. The accompanying figure summarizes these thoughts. An inability to communicate causes the Social and Scientific inputs to turn toward the Legal sector to solve their perceived differences‑‑ litigation. If I am not part of the analysis process, chances are I don't fully understand, or trust it. Another hundred pages of appendices, or even more colorful maps, won't help. See you in court.
Figure 1. The considerations in effective decision-making require dialogue and participatory involvement, as well as technical and economic scrutiny.
However, effective communication causes the inputs to turn away from the Legal sector in search of an acceptable decision. The right side of the figure addresses the working environment. Most geographic‑related decisions have a relatively broad range of technically feasible options. As the pyramid depicts, there is a smaller set of options that are economically viable. We have developed elaborate procedures for assessing management options that are both feasible and viable‑‑ the technical solution.
Yet, in reality, there is an even smaller set of options are socially acceptable. It is this final 'sieve' of management alternatives that often confounds our decision‑making. It uses elusive measures such as human values, attitudes, beliefs, judgement, trust and understanding. Not the usual quantitative stuff used in computer algorithms and decision‑making models. So, what does all this have to do with GIS? In a GIS, maps are numbers aren't they? GIS is a technology, isn't it? Well yes... and no.
The step from feasible and viable options, to acceptable ones is not so much science and economics, than it is communication. And effective communication implies involvement. The range of involvement (upper right portion of figure 1) extends from placation to actual participation. Public hearings are often more placation than participation. At an initial hearing, concerned parties are asked for their input, but for practical reasons, they are excluded from the analysis process. At a final hearing they are expected to approve the results of analysis they do not understand. "Trust us. Everything is there. Just choose alternative A or B."
Participatory decision‑making has two main thrusts‑‑ consensus building and conflict resolution. Consensus building involves technologically‑driven communication and occurs during the alternative formation phase of the decision‑making process. It involves the GIS specialist's translation of the various considerations raised by a decision team into a spatial model. Once completed, the model is run under a wide variety of conditions and the differences in outcome are noted. From this perspective, any single map solution isn't important. It is how maps change as different scenarios are tried that becomes information to make a decision. "What if avoidance of visual exposure is more important than avoidance of steep slopes in siting the new road? Where does the proposed route change, if at all?" In nearly twenty years of GIS consulting, I have consistently found that seemingly divergent philosophical views most often result in only slightly different map views. This realization often leads to group consensus.
If it doesn't, conflict resolution is necessary. This socially driven communication occurs during the decision formulation phase. It involves the creation of a 'conflicts map' that compares the outcomes from two or more competing uses. Each management parcel (vector polygon or raster cell) is assigned a code describing the conflict over the location. "This location is ideal for preservation, recreation and development. What should we do?" Make a decision, that's what you need to do. This process most often involves human rationalizing, or 'tradeoffs.' "Look here, I will let you develop this parcel if you agree to assign that one to preservation." The dialogue is far from a mathematical optimization, but often closer to an effective decision. It uses the GIS to focus discussion away from broad ideological positions, to the specific project area and its unique distribution of possible uses.
GIS is a mapping tool, a spatial data base management technology and a analytic revolution. But what may be its most important attribute is its ability to communicate. It isn't just a better technical answer, it is a more comprehensible one. It fosters discussion that often leads to understanding, and ultimately effective decisions. Think of it. All Rhett and Scarlet needed was a bit more constructive discussion, and they could have lived happily ever after in a small duplex outside Atlanta.

In an era of rapid global change, our ability to understand and predict Earth's natural systems is lagging behind our ability to monitor and measure changes in the biosphere. Bottlenecks to informing models with observations have reduced our capacity to fully exploit the growing volume and variety of available data. Here, we take a critical look at the information infrastructure that connects ecosystem modeling and measurement efforts, and propose a roadmap to community cyberinfrastructure development that can reduce the divisions between empirical research and modeling and accelerate the pace of discovery. A new era of data‐model integration requires investment in accessible, scalable, and transparent tools that integrate the expertise of the whole community, including both modelers and empiricists. This roadmap focuses on five key opportunities for community tools: the underlying foundations of community cyberinfrastructure; data ingest; calibration of models to data; model‐data benchmarking; and data assimilation and ecological forecasting. This community‐driven approach is a key to meeting the pressing needs of science and society in the 21st century.

If your situation allows, adopting a dog as a college student can be a very rewarding experience. This is especially true given new research showing how dogs benefit stressed out college students. But becoming a dog owner while attempting to get a degree can also be challenging, so here are a few things you must consider beforehand.
Having a dog is expensive. According to a number of sources, buying a puppy and caring for him in the first year of his life will cost you up to $5,270. Of course, you can choose to adopt a puppy or even an adult dog, which will reduce the initial cost. But you still need money for the living expenses and basic things for your Fido.
Buying a dog. Purchasing a pet from a breeder will probably cost you more than $1000. Adopting a dog comes with an adoption fee, which is different depending on the shelter and your location. However, the adoption fee usually ranges from $50 to $100.
Initial expenses. You will have to buy food and supplies for the pet, like a dog crate, kibble and treats, and food/water bowls, a collar, a leash, toys, and more. The cost of these things will depend on the quality, but you can count on spending at least $150.
Ongoing expenses. Food and regular vet checkups will require at least $200 for a year. Add grooming for some breeds, unexpected vet visits, training, vaccinations, and so on. You will certainly need a budget of at least $500 for a year for dog's well-being needs.
Your Living Arrangements
If you are living in a dorm, you need to check what are the rules about pets on your campus. Even though most colleges in the US are not pet-friendly, that is starting to change and you might be able to bring a dog into your dorm. However, just because you can get a pet into the dorm doesn’t mean you should. You need to consider how much space you can provide for this canine.
If you live in an apartment, check with your landlord if you are allowed to have a dog. Even if your lease says that it is pet-friendly, confirm this with the landlord if there are any restrictions when it comes to breed or size of the dog. If you have roommates, make sure that they agree with you getting a dog.
Your Social Life and Time
Having a dog is a responsibility that will take a lot of your time. The dog must get enough exercise and needs play time as well. Since you probably have classes during the day, that means dedicating yourself to your pooch in the evenings. Are you prepared to put your dog in front of your social life and miss parties, going out or weekend trips?
Caring for a puppy will require even more time. Puppies need to be taken for a walk more often for their bathroom breaks. Adult dogs can wait for 8 hours before they need to do their business, but young puppies can’t hold for longer than 2 hours. Also, puppies require training and that can sometimes last longer than you expect, even months in some cases.
College is a stressful time for many students, but your dog won’t care about your finals or projects. You need to be prepared to take your dog out for a walk even if you don’t feel like doing it.
Consider emergency vet visits. Do you have a way to transport your dog to the vet in case something goes wrong? Public transport may not allow dogs or there may not be enough time to wait for it; if you don’t have a car, you need to make other arrangements. Always have a plan in place on how to get your pet to the vet quickly.
Traveling and Breaks
Students often love being spontaneous and traveling a lot. If you want to do it, you must find a reliable person that will take care of your pet in this case. Other situations, like internship assignments for example, also require a caretaker.
However, if you plan to travel quite a bit during your school breaks or want to study abroad, hold off on getting a dog. Having one plan is not enough, things often can and will go wrong. Have multiple backup plans and options when you leave your pooch in someone’s care for a long time.
All things considered, if you still want to adopt a canine and you're positive none of the above will become an issue, you have to choose the best breed for you and your college life. This depends on many factors, such as your living situation and your budget, but if you are free to choose any breed, here are some tips to consider your lifestyle and what breed suits you based on the breed’s personality, level of maintenance required and size.

One Dead after Fireworks Accident in Mountain Iron
A 19-year-old Cook man is dead after a fireworks accident in Mountain Iron.
The St. Louis County Sheriff’s Office responded to the accident in the 5600 block of Oriole Avenue around 9 a.m. Friday morning.
Authorities say 19-year-old Trevor Reichel placed a mortar style firework on top of a hard hat he was wearing.
Reichel was injured when the firework went off.
He was transported to Essentia Health-Virginia and airlifted to Essentia Health-St. Mary’s Duluth hospital, where he later died of his injuries.
The accident remains under investigation.

Nick Jonas’ second career can still pay the bills, or at least pick up the tab at a local Starbucks. The singer stopped by the coffee shop in Tampa, Florida ahead of his Jingle Ball performance and treated fans to a cup of joe on him as well as a performance.
Tag Archives | Starbucks
Ariana’s last name is the second largest cup size at Starbucks, and that means every comedian on Twitter loves plucking the low-hanging fruit of turning Ariana’s name into a coffee pun. Some fans even go so far as to prank Starbucks employees by trying to order an Ariana Grande.
But Ariana has her own sense of humor about that gag. On Snapchat, Ariana shared a look at one of the cue cards from her “Saturday Night Live” hosting gig in the background. On it, there was a friendly reminder that she’s a singer and not a Starbucks drink.
Check out Ariana’s reminder below.

Lady Gaga took Friday to promote her latest high-profile collaboration. The singer wasn’t out doing interviews or performances for a new song, though. Instead, she was behind the counter at a Starbucks serving up her charity drink for the coffee giant. Twenty five cents from each purchase of one of her “Cup of Kindness” drinks goes to her Born This Way Foundation to help LGBTQ youth.
Gaga’s latest addition to her resume was enough to inspire a few memes. Some people were trying to figure out what could’ve happened to turn Gaga from superstar into a barista. But one devoted Little Monster imagined how a scene between Gaga and a fan asking about the music video for “The Cure” might play out–with a little help from SpongeBob SquarePants.
Check out Gaga at Starbucks below.

I cast on with this ball for the first time while Bean was in the hospital back in March. After a couple of inches, I realized that I wasn't doing the pattern properly. So I frogged them. Then I cast on again, deciding to work from the toe up, but soon discovered that I wasn't capable of working a decent heel in that technique yet, so I frogged it again. So tried again, this time discovering that it was too tight and there was no way it was going to fit over my heel. Ribbit, ribbit, my friends. This last time I tried to cast on the same pattern, I switched to larger needles and threw in a couple extra stitches. Still wasn't liking the result, the fabric didn't have a whole lot of stretch to it and I've decided, for now, that I will not be working that pattern. Which is a shame, because I like the way the pattern looks in the pictures, but I'm just not executing properly. I'm not going to show you a picture however, because I don't want this to seem like I'm putting it, or the designer down. I like them both, the pattern's just not for me right now.
So, yesterday I decided to cast on Pomatomus by Cookie A. These are some really great looking socks with lots of stretch and I think they will look awesome in this yarn. Plus, they are named after the genus name for the bluefish, which my brother and I used to shore fish for when we were kids. However, after working the leg, I realized that, yet again, they wouldn't fit over my heel. Dammit! I checked the instructions and realized, that like a complete moron, I had used a needle a size too small. Fortunately I realized this before I finished the stupid thing, but still, to frog this yarn for the fifth time is really demoralizing.
On a happier note, I do finally have a finished object to show off. It's been nearly a month, but I have finally finished a pair of socks. I worked them over 64 stitches in a moss stitch rib from the toe up. Yes, my friends, I finally figured out how to do a reinforced heel from the toe up. Woot! They were supposed to be for Wes, but they are too small for him, so I guess I get to keep them.
I know I've been pretty silent lately and for that I am sorry. I owe you a few stories about how Lilly is doing at camp, the fun that was Camo night and our knit in public event at the World War II museum, but for now, I'm just going to be satisfied with the fact that I finally opened my blogger publisher and will promise you the rest soon.
