Caroline Winnett

Caroline Winnett is the executive director of the Berkeley SkyDeck startup accelerator at the University of California, Berkeley. She is a serial entrepreneur, civic activist, angel investor, advisor and board member of several startups, and a frequent speaker on startups, accelerators, women in business and consumer neuroscience.

Education
Winnett attended Brown University as an undergraduate and got her violin performance degree in 1984 from the Indiana University School of Music. In 1990, Winnett earned her MBA from the Berkeley Haas School of Business. In a 2018 interview, Winnett said that she created her own major in Entrepreneurial Operations because at that time there were no programs at Berkeley for entrepreneurs.

Save Berkeley Iceland
In 2008, Winnett was a founder and spokesperson for Save Berkeley Iceland, advocating for the preservation of the 67-year old Olympic-sized historical ice rink in Berkeley, California. She appeared on local NBC News to raise donations and also petitioned the city council. Winnett and the group were able to raise $50,000 and advocated turning the rink into a nonprofit, but in the end were not able to save the rink from closure.

SkyDeck signage petition
In July 2017, Winnett successfully petitioned the Berkeley city council after a 10-month review process to approve signage on the tallest building in downtown Berkeley, formerly known as the PowerBar building or the Chase Building due to previous signage. The highly-debated building signage named the building "SkyDeck" after Winnett's nonprofit organization, the Berkeley SkyDeck accelerator located on the penthouse floor. Those opposed to the petition argued that the signage was "advertising" and not architectural, while advocates including Winnett argued that the name SkyDeck reflected the Berkeley spirit of innovation. In the end the SkyDeck Building petition was unanimously approved by the council.

NeuroFocus
In 2006, Winnett co-founded startup NeuroFocus, a company that measures how consumers react to advertising using neurological measurements using EEG sensors. Nielsen Holdings acquired NeuroFocus in 2011.

UC Berkeley SkyDeck
Winnett joined Berkeley SkyDeck as executive director in 2015, three years after its original founding as a mentoring space. As the new director, Winnett added staff and worked to partner with the resources already in place at Berkeley. With a colleague, Winnett helped to secure a $150,000 grant to build The Berkeley Startup Network platform so that startup resources at Berkeley would be accessible in one place. In a 2018 interview with Xconomy, Winnett noted that the number of SkyDeck startup advisors had increased from 30 to 140, and that the penthouse accelerator had also taken over an additional floor of the high-rise building it was housed in, located next to Berkeley campus.

In Spring 2018, Winnett and SkyDeck raised a $24 million oversubscribed venture fund from investors Sequoia Capital, Mayfield, Sierra Ventures and others. Managed by Winnett's colleague Chon Tang, the Berkeley SkyDeck Fund began offering $100,000 each to startups in return for 5 percent ownership, beginning with a cohort of 20. In a 2019 blog, Winnett expressed a goal that the Berkeley SkyDeck Fund would bring $1 billion in revenue to UC Berkeley in the future.

Cal Performances
Winnett also serves on the Board of Trustees for Cal Performances, a UC Berkeley performing arts organization.

Public Speaking
Winnett was the opening speaker at the 2020 Taiwan-US Innovation Forum, and urged companies in the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic environment to "focus on the basics", "don't be afraid to change course", and "look for new opportunities". Winnett has also spoken at venues such as the Milan Innovation District and the Rhodes House at the University of Oxford talking about the future of work and innovation.

Talk:World History/The Rise of Dictatorship and Totalitarianism

I added several good section on the Soviet Union. In order to meet such lofty goals as the standards at the page's bottom, this section, as well as the whole project, must be significantly expanded. I am also going to improve the German and Italian sections, as well as seperate them into two topics of discussion.--Naryathegreat 01:16, 6 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Oh what fun, I've now added a section the Weimar Republic (it seems appropriate here) tomorrow I'll spruce up ol' Mussolini and finish up Hitler. Then on to World War II! Oh, I think I'll tackle some ancient history tomorrow as well. But where to put the Great Depression? I guess it's own article is the way to go. And since I'm the only big contributor for a month...I am kind of giving myself free reign to take the reins (inline assonance intentional :-) of power for the time being. I think however, I will begin to aim for AP World History standards (I achieved a 5, so I will call myself well-qualified for the task) rather than the very regional California standards (although they provide an excellent baseline.

alright, i added a basic overview of the spanish civil war. feel free to add some more everyone.

Why is there a section in French on this page?!

Talk:Bristol Industrial Museum

Steam crane builder?
...a Fairbairn Steam crane which was built by Stothert & Pitt ...

Huh? How does that work? Surely it was built by Fairbairn?? -- EdJogg (talk) 14:27, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Fairbairn patent design of curved platework jib, built by S&P, as they were local.
 * There's some argument over the details of this. Quite possibly it's Fairbairn "running gear" that was originally supplied in CKD form to S&P, who then built the frame for it. Very obviously it's of the "Fairbairn pattern" and there's a Stothert & Pitt maker's plate fastened to it. Andy Dingley (talk) 15:12, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Separate the railway from the museum in Wikipedia?
Shouldn't we separate the Industrial Museum from the Harbour Railway in Wikipedia, especially now that their destinies have diverged? They may have been united institutionally, but in the popular imagination you'd always refer to them separately, and hence, I think, they've always deserved separate WP entries. Hotlorp (talk) 17:34, 23 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Seems a reasonable idea. -- EdJogg (talk) 17:47, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
 * All the stuff about the museum would have to be past tense & would we be starting a new article on the Museum of Bristol (or whatever its finally going to be called). It might be better to leave the old museum stuff with the railway - otherwise we could end up with 3 articles & someone proposing a merge?— Rod talk 18:11, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
 * I think separate articles are a good idea, as effectively the railway and the museum were treated as separate entities for almost all purposes except within the organisational structure of Bristol museums. This organisational structure was probably largely because the railway on its own wouldn't otherwise quite fit anywhere logical within the local authority. Combining the management presumably also created some economies of scale in administration. Neither of these factors are relevant to Wikipedia. We currently have enough information about both topics for standalone articles, especially if the railway one were to take more of the history of harbour railways within Bristol. As for the new museum, the limited coverage currently required will fit quite happily on the article about the industrial museum, and I would suggest continuing to cover it there until such time as there is enough for a standalone article at some future point. Thryduulf (talk) 23:03, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
 * OK, I've done the split. Hotlorp (talk) 22:03, 20 December 2009 (UTC)
 * I've sorted the Bristol nav box and the talk page boxes, but there is more to do (see below) Thryduulf (talk) 01:36, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

? rename or new article for M shed
With the "imminent" openiong of the M shed, do people think this article should be renamed & most of the existing put into a history section with a new section for the M shed or should a new article be created for the new museum (& appropriate links made between the two)?— Rod talk 10:10, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

 * Strongly oppose. We should keep this article (and expand it, there's material there) on the BIM as was. The new M shed can be covered under Museum of Bristol. Andy Dingley (talk) 10:33, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure what you are opposing as I asked a question rather than proposing anything, however what I hear is we need to start a new article. However should it be Museum of Bristol or M shed? NB Bristol Museum currently redirects to Bristol City Museum and Art Gallery.— Rod talk 11:14, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
 * I think a new article would be better. I'm happy to assist. --Simple Boba.k.a. The Spaminator (Talk) 13:57, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
 * I also think that a new article should be started. BTW, the new museum will be in both L and M sheds. Jezhotwells (talk) 15:16, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
 * But it looks like it is being branded as M Shed] Jezhotwells (talk) 15:19, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
 * OK I've made a start at M Shed by gutting the old BIM article - feel free to add. It can always be renamed if necessary but that does seem to be the title.— Rod talk 16:22, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
 * M Shed is a little ambiguous, as it has been a warehouse and two different museums over time. However that's an issue for moves and redirects as we know more. It'll be rebranded every other week anyway, until the council finds a reason to close it, then flog the site for yet more flats. Andy Dingley (talk) 20:44, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

Acesius

Acesius was a bishop of Constantinople, in the reign of Constantine. He was a disciple of Novatian, the founder of Novatianism, whose distinguishing doctrine was, that those who had fallen from the faith in time of persecution, or who after baptism had committed any mortal sin, were not to be admitted to the communion of the church, even if they gave evidence of sincere repentance. At the First Council of Nicaea, in 325, Constantine inquired of Acesius, whom, though separated from the communion of the church, he had invited to the council, about the ground of his separation. Acesius, in reply, admitted that the creed which had been subscribed by the synod was orthodox, and assented to their determination concerning the festival of Easter, but pleaded, as a sufficient reason for separation, the Novatian doctrine, which would not permit them to hold communion with those, who, in persecution under Decius, had forsaken the church. It was then that Constantine said, "Acesius, take a ladder, and climb up to heaven alone."

Lobotidae

Lobotidae is a family of ray-finned fishes that includes the tripletails, which are circumtropical marine fishes, and tiger perches, which are Asian freshwater fishes. The family is placed in the order Spariformes in the 5th edition of Fishes of the World but this classification and the taxa included within the family is not agreed on by all workers.

Taxonomy
Lobotidae was firs proposed as a family in 1861 by the American biologist Theodore Gill. The 5th edition of Fishes of the World classifies the Lobotidae within the order Spariformes and provisionally includes the genus Datnioides in the family. Other workers have included a third genus, Hapalogenys in the Lobotidae. However, yet more wrokers place these three taxa in monotypic families within the order Lobotiformes in the series Eupercaria.

Genera
Lobotidae contaons the following genera:

 * Lobotes Cuvier, 1830 (Triplefins)
 * Datnioides Bleeker, 1853 (Tiger perches)

Characteristics
Lobotidae have toothless palatines and vomers. They have a rounded caudal fin similar to that of cichlids, while the extended posterior lobes on the rear dorsal fin and anal fin give the impression of having three tails. The dorsal fins are supported by a total of 12 spines and 15 or 16 soft rays. The maximum size of these fishes varies from a standard length of 32 cm for the New Guinea tiger perch (Datnioides campbelli) to a total length of 110 cm in the Atlantic tripletail (Lobotes surinamensis). The juveniles camouflage themselves by floating on their sides and resembling fallen leaves.

Distribution and habitat
Lobotidae are tropical and subtropical fishes, the triplefins are marine fishes with a oantropical distribution while the tiger perches are freshwater and brackish waters fishes of rivers and estuaries in south and southeast Asia and New Guinea.

Wikiversity:Problems I have encountered

This page is intended to gather feedback on what problems people (ie you!) have encountered in Wikiversity. Please help us by giving a general overview of the problem, some details of whatever materials you may have consulted (or wrote), the people who you engaged with, and also how this problem affected you and your learning. You can be as simple or as detailed as you like - you can make a separate page if you like, link to your blog, or whatever - but your stories should help create a picture of how Wikiversity has worked (or not) so far. For accounts of learning, please see What I have learned.

Please note: if you would prefer to remain anonymous, you can send an email to Cormaggio, which will only be used with your permission, and as you specify.

Pigeonholing
I would like to voice my pigenhole-ing theory. Most wiki projects there is one page on one topic and people who want to work on that topic have to work together, thus NPOV and dispute resolution. Here you don't get that effect, meaning that projects rely more on advertising and less on the notability of the topic. Also, bureaucracy is slow if people assume there should be one (extension approval committee) when in fact such a bureaucracy doesn't exist.--Rayc 20:51, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

 * See discussion on the talk page

Current Status - The Film School

 * 1. Awkward software

 * I prefer a formal student/teacher relationship with a long series of attractive lessons in formal courses. In this case, the design of the wikimedia software is not ideal.  I now spent at least 60% of my time is spent doing formatting and organizing.

 * The Wikimedia software is not designed for colorful and attractive pages (like Pagemaker, InDesign or Freehand). I must do all my coding by hand.  Even the requirement that I do everything on line (with a dial up phone line), is very time consuming.

 * Also, because the file format is flat, now that I have more than 400 pages, it is an organizational nightmare. I cannot automatically print a well organized table of contents of my files.  I cannot simply move whole sections of files to a different folder to change the order of my lessons.

 * The courses I am offering have never been offered before anywhere so I am inventing the content and structure as I go. Therefore, I repeatedly make mistakes in how I am designing my courses and I must go back and reorganize.  The lack of file folders (a hierarchial file system) is still the greatest hinderance.

 * 2. Student/teacher relationship

 * Even though the Film School is not finished (and will not be finished until the end of the year), I am getting a feeling for the students I am attracting. Most are high school students.  They are highly intelligent.  Yet, none are experienced at authoring even the simplest WIKI pages.  None can even upload homework assignments.  More importantly, none want to.  (All assignments are submitted by email and I must upload the finished pages to Wikiversity.)

 * I do not believe that any students will ever want to author pages. Once the first draft of the school is complete and working, it will be interesting to see if any students contribute lessons.  I believe that students will be too busy just trying to learn all the filmmaking software that is needed by independent filmmakers.

 * The wikimedia software does not work best with this kind of structure.

 * 3. Lost in the crowd

 * When the Film School is complete and fully working, I will be doing my own publicity to attract students. Therefore, the other content on Wikiversity should not effect me.  However, I am beginnning to get the feeling the difference between my content (with the formal student/teacher relationship with very rigid lessons) and the other content of Wikiversity is turning off some students.  This is something which will concern me in the future since I want to keep students fully focused on filmmaking.

 * 4. The big picture

 * Probably the most important thought that I have never heard spoken out loud is "teaching is a business". For most serious teachers, this is a business.

 * Repeatedly, I hear how retired educators will be eager to stop their retirement and write wonderful lessons for wikiversity. This is not happening and this is not my case.  I am not doing this for the fun of it.  This is a full time business.

 * I fully comply with the requirements of Wikiversity. All of my lessons are free and all of the content is public domain.  I want people to freely use the content.  I want companies to freely copy my pages.

 * What I need is a pool of talent who can make and edit motion pictures. The film school is the way to achieve this.

 * So while my business model is unusual, I am still doing this as a business for profit.

 * Creating an on-line school requires teachers who want to spend 8 hours a day 7 days a week writing lessons for a year or two. That requires a profit motive.  Wikiversity needs to recognize this and begin to offer the support that independent teachers need to run their businesses (while still adhering to the Wikiversity model of free lessons which are public domain.)

 * 5. The promise of Wikiversity

 * In three years once enough lessons and projects have been completed, we will begin to see what is needed. Currently, Wikiversity is just an experiment.  Only after we know what is possible can be begin to design a system from scratch for the needs of education.

Highest pull The highest peak in Tihama Al Baha

Mount Shada is a high rocky mountain, the highest mountain in the Tihama plain, located roughly between the cities of Qalwa and Al-Makhwah, southwest of Saudi Arabia. The height of the mountain peak is estimated at 2,200 meters. The topography of the mountain is dominated by smooth rocks, giving the mountain a pale blue color. There is a building for the emirate, a school and a health center. A fairly good paved road also arrives on the mountain, branching out from the mocha road - Qalwa.

Mountain boundaries: Upper Shada Mountain is an almost parallel extension of the Sarawat Mountains to the west. The mountain rises about 2,200 meters above sea level. The highlands consist of basaltic rocks from which valleys descend. [2] The mountain overlooks the city of Al-Makhwah in the east, the city of Qalwa in the north-west, the valley of Nira to the west and the south-west, and the lower mountain of Shada in the southwest.

Natural Revolution: The mountain is famous for planting coffee trees, planting bananas and lemons, and spiny figs grow naturally.

the climate: The atmosphere of the villages is cold in winter and moderate in summer, often covered by the clouds.

One Minute Out

One Minute Out is the ninth novel by Mark Greaney, published on February 18, 2020. It is also the ninth book in the Gray Man series. In the novel, the main character Court Gentry tracks down a global sex trafficking organization across eastern Europe. To date, One Minute Out is the only Gray Man novel to be written in the first person.

One Minute Out debuted at number one on the New York Times bestseller list, making it Greaney's first number one solo entry.

Plot summary
Freelance mercenary Court Gentry is tasked with assassinating former Serbian general Ratko Babic at his compound in Bosnia and Herzegovina. While infiltrating his house, Gentry discovers that it is also a way station for young girls waiting to be transported east and sold into sex slavery. After killing Babic, Gentry manages to escape with one of the girls named Liliana while taking heavy fire from the general's men, leaving the other girls behind.

Liliana informs Gentry about Captain Niko Vukovic, a police chief stationed in the nearby city of Mostar who is Babic's associate. After sending the girl home safely, Gentry goes to Mostar and surveils the police officer, later apprehending Hungarian mobsters sent to kill him. While there, he encounters Talyssa Corbu, a Romanian financial analyst working for Europol. She had embarked on a personal mission to find her sister Roxana, who is missing and presumed dead or sold into sex slavery. They agree to work together to save the trafficked girls as well as Roxana.

Gentry snatches Vukovic and tortures him for information. The police officer reveals that the next way station or "pipeline" for the trafficked girls is in Dubrovnik, Croatia, and that he works for a global enterprise called the Consortium, which deals in money laundering and sex trafficking. Gentry and Corbu then proceed to Croatia, where he uses her as bait to attract Consortium men by asking around about the organization. Eventually, Albanian mobsters working for the Consortium kidnap Corbu. Gentry then chases them through the streets of Dubrovnik, eventually saving the analyst and killing her captors. While captive, Corbu overhears of a Consortium hideout near the Croatian coast. They venture there, where Gentry finds a yacht where the young girls are being transported and decides to follow it.

The Director of the Consortium, Hollywood-based businessman Kenneth Cage, sends security contractor Jaco Verdoorn and his men to Croatia in an effort to dispatch Gentry and Corbu. The former South African special forces member is also tasked with shepherding the yacht full of trafficked young girls to an auction in Venice, Italy. Meanwhile, Gentry infiltrates the yacht and finds Roxana, who now goes by the name of Maja and is selected as one of the VIPs to be personally delivered to Cage. However, she refuses to be rescued, vowing to help her sister identify the Consortium's top players. Gentry reluctantly leaves her, narrowly escaping the yacht while under pursuit from Verdoorn and his men.

Court then tries to enlist the CIA's help for resources. However, his boss Matthew Hanley declines, claiming to have no knowledge about the Consortium and sternly telling him that he is needed stateside. Gentry then asks for help from an Italian crime family he had previously worked with in infiltrating the Venice auction, while he instructs Corbu to travel to the Netherlands and coerce a blackhat hacker into accessing the Consortium's financial records.

Unknown to Gentry, Hanley sends a Ground Branch paramilitary team led by his former black ops team leader Zack Hightower into Venice to apprehend the mercenary. They soon get into a gunfight with Verdoorn and his men and are forced to move out. Gentry witnesses this and demands to know how Hanley knew his whereabouts. His boss replies that Cage is an important Agency asset and must not be harmed, but reluctantly allows Court to rescue Roxana and the girls as long as he does not kill the Consortium head. Gentry then joins Hightower and the Ground Branch team as they return to the United States.

Corbu travels to the United States as well, where she tracks down a ranch outside Los Angeles where Roxana and the girls are being kept. At Hightower's recommendation, Gentry enlists the services of a group of veterans led by former Delta Force officer Shep Duvall, who used to raid brothels and rescue trafficked girls in the Philippines until they got caught, imprisoned, and later extradited to the United States. Together they storm the ranch, dispatching most of the security and rescuing the girls. However, Duvall is killed in the firefight, and Verdoorn manages to escape with Cage and Roxana. They later regroup to the Consortium head's mansion in the city.

The next day, Roxana manages to inform her sister about her whereabouts. Court and Duvall's surviving teammates then stage an assault on the mansion. Gentry eventually kills Verdoorn after a brutal fight and catches up to Cage, who lets Roxana go. Court decides not to kill him and castrates him instead. Roxana and Corbu then reunite, as Gentry is picked up by Hightower and summoned for a new mission.

Development
In researching for One Minute Out, Greaney went to Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Italy, and Los Angeles, locations that would later be featured in the novel. On how he came up with the plot, the author said: "The initial idea for this one began with me picturing the Gray Man on a vengeance mission for something far in the past, but in the process of discovering something unrelated, that’s bigger and more deadly. I soon decided on focusing on human trafficking after doing some research on the subject."

Commercial
One Minute Out debuted at number one in the Combined Print and E-Book Fiction category of the New York Times bestseller list for the week of March 8, 2020, making it Greaney's first number one solo entry. His last number one was with co-author Tom Clancy in his final novel Command Authority (2013). In addition, the book charted at number four in the Hardcover Fiction category of the same list.

The book debuted at number three on the USA Today Best-Selling Books list for the week of February 27, 2020.

Critical
The book received positive reviews. Publishers Weekly called it "memorable" and continued: "Gentry is up to the task. Spy thriller fans will be enthralled." Kirkus Reviews hailed it, stating: "Great storytelling about the pursuit of extrajudicial justice." Thriller novel reviewer The Real Book Spy praised the book's first person point of view: "Greaney’s style is unique, and allowing Gentry to speak directly to readers creates a powerful dynamic as fans will love hearing from the super-assassin and seeing the plot through his eyes. It all works incredibly well and is paired perfectly with the dark subject matter at hand."

 * Agreed. Normally I wouldn't but considering the game is made by a eurpoean developer and has no coverage of North America as a location or a faction, it might as well maintain the Eurpoean English.--  Oni Ookami Alfador Talk 15:01, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

I cleaned up the Updates section, as the prior version was utter shit.

I added: bullets, consistency in certain punctuation (hyphens, colons, periods), and added headings to make it more navigable. tildetildetildetilde

Addendum: Whether the whole Updates section kind of bloats the article and is unneeded is not my concern; I merely cleaned it up. tildetildetildetilde

Nice work, it was pretty much a piece of cr*p. Please try to sign your posts, please. --Putmalk 23:28, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

Bug section
It was removed because not a single piece of information in it was sourced, and some claims aren't even actual bugs. If any of it can be sourced then it probably belongs back in but ONLY if that is done.-- Oni Ookami Alfador Talk 04:24, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

Add to game info below its picture
You know the info below the picture could you please add something to let people know this game has in-game streaming advertisements? Doesn't have to be much just more of a warning then EA/DICE gave us outside the box. (customers only find out about the in-game streaming ad's after they open the product)

More and more games these days are adding in-game streaming advertisements on billboards, it would be nice to see the info about it below the system spec's. The software thats built into this game monitors how long you play and how long you look at the billboards, it also logs your ip#, it reports that info each time you play.

Planes?
Really? Has this game planes or jets? I could not find anywhere a refference about this. I use this sentence "Try before buy". <IP_ADDRESS> 12:15, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
 * It has two aircraft. The first is a fast VTOL Gunship with heat seeking missiles, a gattling gun and TV guided missiles. The second is a troop transporter carries 6 troops and has two side mounted gattling guns. You musn't have been looking to hard. If you want more choice, get BF2, which has lots more aircraft. --Simpsons fan 66 23:18, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

No Australian Advertisments?
I think your wrong, I live in Australia and recently bought BF2142 from JB HIFI. And it has advertising, as shown in a screenshot i took here. This was in single player by the way. andrewrox424 Bleep  00:04, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

Yes, if our connected to the internet, whether you are playing online or offline, you will get ads. Playing with the internet disconnected should make those ads undisplayable, which will make the regular billboards appear, because the advertising system cannot find the streaming servers (I may be wrong, but I'm pretty sure. I'll check it out.). INFORMTION CENT E R 02:29, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

"Wake Island" Statement
Someone claimed that BF2142 was the first game in the series, NOT to feature the "Wake Island" Map, even though i've never played it, i'm pretty sure that "Battlefield Vietnam" didn't have Wake Island as a map.

There was an official mod for BFV that redid the BF1942 maps Iwo Jima and Wake Island. Poss 23:38, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

GA Sweeps (on hold)
This article has been reviewed as part of WikiProject Good articles/Project quality task force in an effort to ensure all listed Good articles continue to meet the Good article criteria. In reviewing the article, I have found there are some issues that may need to be addressed.
 * The lede is a) non-compelling, b) does not give a good overview of the subject as a whole (aka, its reception, development, et al), and c) appears to be have some errors (a Mac version was announced in 2007 and released in 2006?)
 * Generally, unsourced. Game manuals are a good place to find info, or even looking in the reviews for the game, but from Story to Expansion packs, there are only six refs, tops, for nearly 30KB of straight prose.

I will check back in no less than seven days. If progress is being made and issues are addressed, the article will remain listed as a Good article. Otherwise, it may be delisted (such a decision may be challenged through WP:GAR). If improved after it has been delisted, it may be nominated at WP:GAN. Feel free to drop a message on my talk page if you have any questions, and many thanks for all the hard work that has gone into this article thus far.

Who did the voices for 2142? The Pan Asian Coalition Titan's security computer sounds a lot like 'Ellen McLain' the voice for Portal's psychopathic computer. ~ Swanston —Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 00:47, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

Maps
There was some talk around March (from the date stamps) about adding descriptions to the maps section for each map. While I do support this I would suggest focusing on the story elements and how the locations in the game are different from the current layout of the areas. For example the current addendum about camp Gibraltar having no relation to the real life location of Gibraltar or something about the massive ice sheet that makes up the edge of maps like Fall of Berlin and Verdun.

Also I propose that the current maps section under Northern Strike be merged with the general maps section, the Northern Strike maps be removed from the general section, or the Northern Strike maps section be refocused on differences between Northern Strike maps in general and the previous maps.

Lastly should the "All maps are playable in Conquest." note at the top of the general Maps section be removed? To the best of my knowledge Assault Lines is its own distinct game type and not a new type of Conquest. I do not have any definitive information one way of the other and due to events in real life I do not have the time to go out and research the matter myself. Also could someone provide a citation for the different types of conquest. As far as I know there are just different maps with their own spawn point arrangements.--EpicWizard 18:01, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

I found this page on the 2142 website that lists Assault Lines as a sub type of Conquest as "Conquest: Assault Lines". It however makes no mention of other types on conquest.--EpicWizard 22:51, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

Copyvio?
I have removed the story section from the article, as it appeared to be a direct quotation from the game. Such a long quotation is a copyright violation and does not qualify as fair use. The story should be paraphrased, not quoted. Geometry guy 12:15, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

Actually the only portion of the story section that came from the game (manual), which says that it can't be reprinted without permission by the way so good catch, is the following:

"As snow and storms swept down from the north, the encroaching ice swallowed living spaces and resources and a frantic battle for survival began across the globe. Small-scale conflicts bloomed into major confrontations, as desperate nations united to form new superpowers-- the European-led EU forces and the Russo-Asian army otherwise known as the Pan Asian Coalition (PAC). With the formation of these coalitions came the consolidation of brains and resources needed to develop deadly new battlefront technologies: the Titans, vast airbourne dreadnoughts with the colossal destructive power to dominate the skies, and lethal, armored Battlewalkers, designed to outpace and outgun infantry."

The first line and everything after this appears to be original. If you have proof to the contrary please lets us all know. In the mean time someone (I don't have time, sorry) should re-write that first paragraph in a non-copyright violation manner and repost it.--EpicWizard 16:48, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

 * I only spotted it because an anon put the section in quotes here. Unfortunately the crucial information that this is taken from the EA website was deleted on the grounds that it was not properly formatted inside ref tags! I cannot stress this enough: supplying sources and deleting copyright violations is much much much more important than formatting the references correctly! In fact the entire section is a copyvio: the rest can be found here.

 * If the material had not been a quote, it would have been too in-universe anyway. Good luck rewriting it. Geometry guy 19:07, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

 * While I agree that the paragraph should be properly cited if any part of it is to be included in the article I feel that because the information in that paragraph outside of what I pointed out earlier is printed online, where anyone can view it, that reprinting it here does no damage to the Battlefield 2142 Copyright and can only serve to increase interest in their IP. The support for this is from the "Fair use on the Internet" section in the Fair Use article:

A US court case in 2003, Kelly v. Arriba Soft Corporation, provides and develops the relationship between thumbnails, inline linking and fair use. In the lower District Court case on a motion for summary judgment, Arriba Soft was found to have violated copyright without a fair use defense in the use of thumbnail pictures and inline linking from Kelly's website in Arriba's image search engine. That decision was appealed and contested by Internet rights activists such as the Electronic Frontier Foundation, who argued that it is clearly covered under fair use.

On appeal, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals found in favor of the defendant. In reaching its decision, the court utilized the above-mentioned four-factor analysis. First, it found the purpose of creating the thumbnail images as previews to be sufficiently transformative, noting that they were not meant to be viewed at high resolution like the original artwork was. Second, the fact that the photographs had already been published diminished the significance of their nature as creative works. Third, although normally making a "full" replication of a copyrighted work may appear to violate copyright, here it was found to be reasonable and necessary in light of the intended use. Lastly, the court found that the market for the original photographs would not be substantially diminished by the creation of the thumbnails. To the contrary, the thumbnail searches could increase exposure of the originals. In looking at all these factors as a whole, the court found that the thumbnails were fair use and remanded the case to the lower court for trial after issuing a revised opinion on July 7, 2003. The remaining issues were resolved with a default judgment after Arriba Soft had experienced significant financial problems and failed to reach a negotiated settlement.

However, since the block of text I mentioned earlier is not printed online (to the best of my knowledge) it should not be reproduced here. It might be better substituted with this:

The year is 2142, and the dawn of a new Ice age has thrown the world into a panic. The soil not covered by ice can only feed a fraction of the Earth's population. The math is simple and brutal: some will live, most will die.

from here.--EpicWizard 22:47, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

 * The first paragraph was also available, in full, on line when I checked earlier this afternoon (UTC), but the site appears to have been changed in the last few hours and I haven't found the link: it may only be available on the internet archive now.
 * However, this is irrelevant, because Wikipedia fair use requirements are much stronger than those required by law. This is because of Wikipedia's goal to be freely available for all to use its content as they wish, and fair use is a compromise of these principles.
 * Also, really, the direct quotes are too in-universe: the story should really be phrased "The game is set in..." kind of language. This is an encyclopedia! Geometry guy 23:04, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

 * "the story should really be phrased "The game is set in..." kind of language. This is an encyclopedia!" and that ends that. Points for Geometry Guy for ending this with a purely logical argument and one that is fairly airtight. Now we just need someone with more time on their hands to rewrite the opening paragraph in just such a way... why do I feel like this is going to be me even if it isn't right now? --EpicWizard 03:26, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

 * I have to say I have been very impressed by the "Good point - lets fix it" attitude. When a new editor comes along to an article and deletes a chunk of material, or makes some other criticism, the response is often defensive or hostile. In this case it was the opposite, thank you!
 * I'm afraid it is quite likely that the article will be delisted from GA, as it doesn't meet the criteria at the moment, but with your positive "lets fix it" attitude, I am completely confident that (once you get the time ;-) it will easily pass a renomination. Good luck once more, and thank you for brightening my wikiday. Geometry guy 19:52, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Patch 1.40
Well this was going to talk about the impending release of 1.40 and Highway Tampa... Since I just checked and both of these are now out it seemed stupid to talk about them in the future tense. We now need to do a major overhaul of the Updates section of this article and decide how the 1.40 beta stuff and the final release are going to be merged. We may want to just not mention things from the time leading up to the 1.40 final release beyond dates of testing phases and any important changes made during this time. We also need to update the Maps section and the Game Modes references to reflect Dual Assault Lines. I really don't have time right now to do more than make this post and link to the patch let alone play it or make serious and detailed revisions to this article. Here is a link to the official news for your enjoyment.--EpicWizard 03:27, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

handphone
In the "Collectors' Edition" paragraph, it mentions a "handphone strap". Is this meant to be a headphone strap?

Australia: Spyware Bill 2005 is NOT law
Although it has been mentioned in many places, the Spyware Bill 2005 is actually still before the senate, and as such, has not been passed as Australian law yet. Also, there is actually no such bill as the 'Australian Spyware Act' which is mentioned in the BF2142 article. Spik3balloon (talk) 06:44, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

Vehicles
There's a blurb in the section on Northern Strike describing new vehicles added, but no section about the actual vehicles in the original game. There should be one. siafu (talk) 00:49, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Glitches and Bugs
Its worth noting in the article that, much like its predecessor Battlefield 2, Battlefield 2142 is laden with little glitches, bugs, and querks. For instance, the sentry guns can shoot you through walls. While thats realistic, that still seems like they didnt want it to do that. Or being able to see everyone through the titan ship walls when you die, that is definately a glitch. There are too many to list there. —Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 20:10, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

Concerning the Maps section
I think we should reorganize the Maps chart into:

Column 1: Theatre

Column 2: Map Name

Column 3: Conquest Mode Type

Column 4: Titan Mode Availability (Yes/No)

Column 5: No Vehicles Option Availability (Yes/No)

I think we can cut down on columns and make it a little neater if we combine the Conquest sections, instead of giving each type of conquest mode its own column, as we are doing with Conquest Assault and Assualt Lines. Plus, it'd give more information on each map about what type of conquest mode each of the other maps use, since all the maps have some form of conquest anyway.

What do you guys think? Breaker475 (talk) 19:54, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Do it! Besides, I've looked at the code and Conquest Assault (that only Wake uses) has the exact same code as ordinary Conquest.. SBIT (talk) 09:13, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Alright, I've changed it. However, I'm not entirely sure about what maps have the 'No Vehicles' option; I based it on what the table said before (which for some reason was broken when I started to work on it....). Feel free to change the 'No Vehicles' section if you guys find something contrary.Breaker475 (talk) 17:43, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

What mean vehicles mode? Conquest: No Vehicles map? If yes then only first 11 maps (all in Europe and Africa) have this mode.

Factions
There is little mention of the factions playable in this game. I think somebody should do something about that; missing such an important aspect of the game makes this article seem very incomplete. --SaintDaveUK (talk) 11:34, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

We sought permission to take direct quotes from another forum and they said it was all free information that no one could hold a right not to allow others to freely distribute. It its just a list of faults followed by their fix.

Camp Gibraltar - Location
Hello, I am a long-time fan of the 2142 universe. In the "Maps" table on Battlefield 2142, the map "Camp Gibraltar" is linked to Gibraltar when it is said to be within the African theatre. This is a typical mistake, Camp Gibraltar is named after the location of Gibraltar, but it doesn't mean that it really is in Gibraltar. May I remind you that the location of Gibraltar is not a part of the African continent anyway, it is a part of the European continent. So therefore Camp Gibraltar (if it was really in Gibraltar) wouldn't be within the African theatre, it would be within the European theatre. But as I said, Camp Gibraltar is not in Gibraltar itself.

There are several points that prove that Camp Gibraltar is not within the location of Gibraltar:

Examples:
 * The geography of Camp Gibraltar's map does not reflect the real life Gibraltar.
 * 1) Camp Gibraltar's coastline is on the northern section of the map, meaning that players will be facing north when they are looking directly at the coast from land. In Gibraltar, there is no northern coastline, only coastlines if you face the east, south or west.
 * 2) There is no Gibraltar rock  (it is possible that the developers of Battlefield 2142, if they were actually making a real location of Gibraltar, could have not bothered to add the rock of Gibraltar because players wouldn't be able to clearly see the rock anyway due to the map having a low draw-distance (the map is very foggy). However, the topography in all Battlefield games is shown on the mini-map and because the rock of Gibraltar is a recognisable land feature, they might have added an inaccurate version of the rock of Gibraltar just for the topographic mini-map, like an easter egg perhaps.
 * 3) The climate of Gibraltar is not desert-like. In Camp Gibraltar, the environment seems to be very deserty, outside the walls of the camp itself, there seems to be a very barren, yet rocky, desert (you could say that this relates to the game's story as the world in under-going a massive climate-shift due to the Ice Age. However I doubt, since that the real Gibraltar is based on the European continent and that Europe is within the northern hemisphere; where the Ice Age is cooling Europe down, that Gibraltar would get hotter rather than colder than it is today. So, I highly doubt it would become barren.
 * It is mentioned within the map's description in the game that it is a "staging point for refugees from the western Mediterranean territories", meaning that refugees are coming from the western Mediterranean, not going from the western Mediterranean which is where the real location of Gibraltar is roughly located. Also, within the game's story, Europeans are travelling from Europe to Africa in search of habitable land, why would there be a staging point for refugees in Europe when nobody is travelling to Europe? Europe hardly needs staging points for refugees because there are no refugees coming to Europe, refugees are coming to Africa.
 * Another point about the story, it mentions that "The attack on Camp Gibraltar was the first deception attack used by the PAC to draw EU forces out of position." The story in Battlefield 2142 mentions that the Pan Asian Coalition forces launched "deception attacks" in Africa in order to make European Union forces think that the PAC's primary goal was to invade and occupy Africa when, what they really wanted to do, was make the EU send more protection to Africa so that the PAC could trample over the EU in Europe. However, when they finally do make the entirety of EU retreat to Africa when they occupy most of Europe, the PAC find out that now the EU have the most habitable land (Africa) because the climate shift is changing Africa into better land than the land in Europe (there is an ice sheet in the northern hemisphere gradually consuming the continent of Europe, and therefore rendering most of the land there uninhabitable). So, since this was a "deception attack", and the deception attacks in the Battlefield 2142 story were in Africa, that means Camp Gibraltar is not in Gibraltar but rather on the continent of Africa. Where in Africa exactly? I do not know, there is no information other than that it is a staging area for refugees from the western Mediterranean.

So, where should Camp Gibraltar be linked to? I would guess it is on the northern coastline of a northern or north-western African country, such as Morocco or Libya since it is a "staging area for refugees from the western Mediterranean". It would make sense that refugees are in the western Mediterranean of southern Europe are diverted to a closer staging area somewhere in the northern or north-western part of Africa if the refugees are coming from the western Mediterranean.

Thank you for reading and I hope that the location link for Camp Gibraltar is changed to a location on the northern or north-western part of the African continent. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jinzor (talk • contribs) 13:28, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
 * This is all original research. All the maps are fictional locations, some refer to real places, some refer to World War II battles.  There isn't really any reason for any of them to be linked.  If this link bugs you, there is no reason to make a huge case on the talk page, just remove it, don't link it to some other place based on your own speculation about where this map might be fictionally located. -- Daniel  16:54, 23 June 2011 (UTC)

 * I tried getting rid of the links, but someone thought I was sabotaging the article by doing so and put them back in (don't know who, I did it about 9 months ago on another account, long time ago). If people don't want these links gone, I thought "why not come up with better speculation than these people have put in"? I made a case here in the talk page so that if I do edit it, I have backed up my speculation with a good case so that people don't bloody change it. The other map links are speculation anyway, that's why I tried to delete it 9 months ago, but what do you know, it pops up there again. Who knows if Shuhia Taiba really is in southern Egypt? Did they have any evidence to back that up? No they didn't, it doesn't say anywhere that it was located in southern Egypt (quite the opposite, it said the map was located in northern Egypt). So, if this person who added in these links can get away with speculation, why can't my case replace that speculation with better speculation? (NOTE: Well, I wouldn't say I'm extremely bothered by this, I was just bored today so I decided to write an argument for something to pass the time. I was also bored when I decided to edit those links 9 months ago, I hardly go on Wikipedia to edit stuff) -- Jinzor 20:15, 23 June 2011 (UTC)

How popular is this game?
Maybe it achieved mediocre sales figures, but how many thousands of people bought it when it was sold for $20 years later? Is it popular enough for a sequel? — Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 15:26, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

Project Revive and Steam Greenlight
Shouldn't Project Revive (link) be mentioned? It restored the multiplayer mode of the game in October 2016. There are mentions in the press (link). And the team is even putting it on Steam Greenlight, still too early for a result though (link).--Adûnâi (talk) 15:14, 24 May 2017 (UTC)

The branchlist template is now the recommended way of implementing the Root page concept. It is only a reduced form of the navigational templates already in widespread use, but using the two topics in the heading to provide rapid navigation according to semantics principles and so reduce the clutter of a full listing. --Lindosland 17:09, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Recommended by whom? Please don't use branchlists.  Relevant links naturally go in the text of the article, or in a "see also" section.  Categories organize related articles. --Wtshymanski 19:40, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, recommended by whom. Please provide a link to any relevant discussion.
 * This is being horribly abused. Come to your senses, please.  Gene Nygaard 21:07, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

Electronics doesn't seem to use this any more, perhaps another example would be good? I think nav templates are useful in general, as an additional way to do things besides relevant links and categories. For example The Beatles and related articles, although filled with relevant links, and also well categorised, use a nav template at the bottom that presents a concise and organised list of things that might be relevant reading and I think it works quite well.  + + Lar: t/c 13:07, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

Tony Gabriel

Anthony Michael Peter Gabriel (born December 11, 1948) is a former professional Canadian football pass receiver who played in the Canadian Football League from 1971 to 1981. He played for both the Hamilton Tiger-Cats and the Ottawa Rough Riders. He was inducted into the Canadian Football Hall of Fame in August 1985. In 2014, he was inducted into the Ontario Sports Hall of Fame.

Early life
Gabriel was born in Burlington, Ontario on December 11, 1948, and attended Burlington Central High School from 1962 to 1967. While at BCHS, Gabriel played both football and basketball. He was a member of the Junior Basketball Championship team from 1965. He was honoured in 1967, with the M.M. Robinson Gold Medal for top student athlete at BCHS.

Two memories that stick out in his mind from being a Trojan were, firstly, not making the football team in his grade ten year; and in his grade 13 year, scoring 48 points in a senior basketball game to completely outscore the entire Nelson team.

Gabriel was active throughout high school playing junior football for the Burlington Braves under the direction of famed coach Bernie Custis. From there he attended Syracuse University from 1968 to 1971 where he played split-end for coach Ben Schwartzwalder. Following his time in college, he went on to have a legendary professional football career in the Canadian Football League with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats from 1971 to 1974, and with the Ottawa Rough Riders from 1975 to 1981.

Professional career
Gabriel's first CFL year with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in 1971, was rather mediocre, with only 20 catches for 265 yards and one touchdown. With rookie quarterback Chuck Ealey in 1972 Gabriel caught 49 passes for 733 yards and 3 scores during the season and helped the team win the Grey Cup over the Saskatchewan Roughriders. After the 1974 season he joined the Ottawa Rough Riders. With Ottawa he had five seasons of over 1,000 yards receiving, including four consecutive seasons from 1975 to 1978, with the other in 1981. In 1976 and 1977 Gabriel led the CFL in receiving yards with 1320 and 1362 respectively. There would not be another Canadian receiver with this accomplishment until the Stampeders' Dave Sapunjis in 1993.

The 1976 Grey Cup game is perhaps what fans most remember of Gabriel, with his late fourth-quarter touchdown catch from Tom Clements that won the game over the Saskatchewan Roughriders. In 1978 he was awarded the Schenley Award for the Most Valuable Player in the CFL, becoming the first Canadian to win the prize in almost 10 years. This feat was not repeated until 2013. In his career Gabriel was chosen ten consecutive times as the EFC/East Division's all-star tight end from 1972 to 1981. As well he was named to the league's all star team as the tight end in 1972 and from 1974 to 1980.

The 1981 Grey Cup game saw the Rough Riders play the Edmonton Eskimos. Gabriel entered the game with a partial ligament tear in his left knee. Late in the game following a questionable penalty, Gabriel left the game when his knee finally gave out, never to play professionally again. At the time, Gabriel stood at third among the all-time receivers behind only Tom Scott and Tommy Joe Coffey. This also made him first among Canadian receivers. In his 11 seasons, he caught 614 passes for 9832 yards and 69 touchdowns.

He was inducted into the Canadian Football Hall of Fame in August 1985 and in November 2006, was voted one of the CFL's Top 50 players (#18) of the league's modern era by Canadian sports network The Sports Network/TSN.

Botany/Plant tissues

<< Contents Page | << Chapter 2 | Chapter 3 | Chapter 4 >>|

Chapter 3. Plant Tissues

Plant Tissues
Most plant cells are specialized to a greater or lesser degree, and arranged together in tissues. A plant tissue can be simple or complex depending upon whether it is composed of one or more than one type of cell. The simplest tissue found in plants is called parenchyma. The cells are not very specialized, more or less rounded or angular where packed together, and thin-walled. A type of parenchyma called chlorenchyma because the cells contain chloroplasts forms tissue (usually in the leaves) responsible for most of the photosynthesis occurring in the plant. Note that in simple tissues at least (tissues comprised mostly of one cell type), the tissue name follows from the cell type. However, tissues may also have unique anatomical names related to where in the plant they occur.

Meristems
The growth of a plant requires a source of undifferentiated cells located in places where growth is needed and can be initiated to further the body plan (in comparison to animals, plants are rather open in this regard). Some enlargement in size is always possible by elongation or enlargement of existing cells, or by existing cells simply dividing. But differentiation of one cell type into another is only possible if the initial cell (mother cell) is not very specialized. Tissues composed of cells that remain undifferentiated and supply, by their divisions, cells to form new tissues and organs, are called meristems. Meristem tissue occurs in places that allow for a very orderly pattern of growth.

History of Elven Writing Systems/Appendix

Vowels-Ómatehtar
It is well known that the vowels were originally displayed as diacritics. In Rúmilian writing these have been attested, and it is shown how they modify the letter t. The sounds æ and weak ə were probably employed only in English.

Note that if the signs were placed on the left of the letter, they would be pronounced at, et etc.

Concerning the Modes using tengwar, the vowels were displayed with signs that are identical to all of the attested systems (with minor varieties). We can think that they were identical to the first ones that Fëanor made. The attested Quenya tehtar are shown here over the letter Tinco, and how they would be read in Quenya:

And Sindarin:

Sindarin had the ancient umlaut œ that later became e (as in Arnœdiad), but it is attested nowhere. Long vowels were placed on long carriers, but the signs for o, u and e could also be doubled. In Quenya, the sign of a could be simplified as a circumflex or even ommited, as it was a very frequent sound. Tolkien says in some modes, the signs for e and i swapped values, which is seen in the Ring Inscription, but it's not clear if this swapping occurred in Elvish modes. This was also the case with the signs for o and u in the Ring Inscription, because in Orcish, the sound o was rare.

We don't know how dipthongs were written in Sarati and Valinorean Tengwar, but in later Quenya they are written in a peculiar way: The tehta is placed over the following element. Some of them are attested in Namárie, the others formed by analogy. The six diphthongs of Quenya are:

And of Sindarin (tehta mode):

And both full modes:

Au and oe have been attested nowhere and are guessed. Oe shouldn't be confused with the ancient umlaut œ. Au is written -aw finally (as in baw, lhaw) by Tolkien. Final -w in other combinations like têw, aew, lhiw is a semivowel and doesn't form a diphthong.

Xanthisma coloradoense

Xanthisma coloradoense (syn. Aster coloradoensis, Machaeranthera coloradoensis) is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae known by the common name Colorado tansyaster. It is native to Colorado and Wyoming in the United States.

This cushion plant is a perennial herb growing from a taproot and branching caudex. It grows up to 14 centimeters tall, with several to many thick, hairy stems. The hairy leaves are lance-shaped to spatula-shaped and the edges are lined with large, sharp teeth tipped with bristles. The inflorescence is a solitary flower head with narrow, white-tipped phyllaries. It contains pink or purple ray florets up to 1.5 centimeters long and many disc florets. The fruit may be nearly a centimeter long including its pappus.

There were previously two varieties of this species, but these subtaxa are no longer recognized.

This plant may hybridize with Xanthisma grindelioides.

This plant grows in mountains, often in an alpine climate. Habitat types include grassland, pinyon-juniper woodland, and alpine fellfield. It grows in open areas. There is often little vegetative cover and the terrain is rocky. Associated species in the habitat may include pines Pinus spp., shrubs such as Cercocarpus montanus and Chrysothamnus spp., other plants such as Astragalus spp., Erigeron spp., Potentilla spp., Festuca spp., and Elymus spp., and lichens such as members of genus Xanthoparmelia. It can be found growing with some rare species, including Astragalus molybdenus.

Threats to this species are not well known because the plant has not been studied enough yet. Potential threats include recreational activity such as off-road vehicle use, invasive species, grazing and trampling by livestock, and energy development, particularly wind power.
