It's in part a cycle -- land to humans to waste to land. Only in part as nitrogen can oxidize to go back to the air, so it needs to get fixed again by bacteria.
Actually, you excrete most of your nitrogen through kidneys. Pig/human dung contains just 0.3% of nitrogen by weight. Anyway, you can read historical data - human waste is not enough, even using it for compost required to lay fields fallow one year out of three or four (depending on location).
"Fertilizer Runoff Overwhelms Streams and Rivers--Creating Vast "Dead Zones" The nation's waterways are brimming with excess nitrogen from fertilizer--and plans to boost biofuel production threaten to aggravate an already serious situation"
That's because the total amount of fertilizers used is huge. Very little of it is lost, but even that can cause trouble.
What that shows is that alternatives have worked. China is one of the most densely populated places on the planet. If they could do it, it shows the US could do it and other countries could do it.
It was not nearly the most densely populated place (England was) before the 20-th century. China was pretty average compared to European countries.
Still, you can't compare what you presumably had to do with limited tools and limited materials and limited information in a (probably) limited climate on impoverished soils with what is really possible with good tools, abundant materials, abundant information, in a good climate on well prepared soils.
We had lots of information, good enough manual tools and adequate soil. It still takes A LOT of labor if pesticides are not used. Real industrial farming is way more economic and might actually be _healthier_ for the environment, because pesticides allow no-till agriculture.
I see. I'll try not to assume that context might explain a lot.
I certainly studied the organic farming including the 'Holistic' book. It's pretty much the same story as alternative medicine vs. actual medicine - the parts of alternative medicine that work simply become medicine. I've also studied the opposite opinions that pure organic farming is not sustainable and so far it definitely looks like it.

About us…
Help support your Meetup
Our goal is to provide opportunities for people in and around the city to experience various sushi spots. We will organize mainly dinners, both at restaurants and perhaps in our homes. Some can just eat, but others might also want to learn how to make sushi. Either way, we will have fun!
We will have dinners every ten days, alternating between more expensive and budget sushi spots. These places will generally be determined by YOU through our polls section or recommendations.
Eat sushi and be happy!

Twitter Inc Revamps Ad-revenue Model Similar To Facebook Inc
Twitter makes its ad-revenue model more in favor of the small and medium businesses, acknowledging the segment as a great source of revenue.
Twitter Inc (TWTR - Get Report) is modifying the methods it uses to charge advertisers with an objective to pitch more small businesses and challenge Facebook, according to a report from the Wall Street Journal. At present, the company earns revenue for every ad that a user clicks on his Twitter page.
Advertisers to pay for specific action
In the coming month, the micro-blogging site is planning to offer ad companies complete say on how they want to spend their money. For instance, a retail store will agree to pay only when a user steers to its website to view the fall collection. Then there are options such as paying only after advertisers sees growth in its followers, app downloads or get user's e-mail.
The new charging methods are similar to the other social networks and self-service online ad platforms. Rival networking site, Facebook Inc. (FB - Get Report) allows advertisers to choose to pay on a specific action done by users such as app installs, clicks or likes. Twitter mentioned that there are 4.5 million small business accounts and of which over thousands have already campaigned on Twitter. Rival Facebook noted that over 30 million small businesses have their brand pages on the site, and more than 1.5 million have advertised, as of June 30. Is this good for Twitter? Following the new strategy, it will be more challenging for Twitter to earn advertising revenue as users will have to take extra steps to access the ads rather than simply pressing the favourite button or retweeting it. It could pose a risk for Twitter, which vastly depends on money from advertising. However, modifying the options would earn twitter more small and medium size businesses, a lucrative segment to tap on. These businesses are not in a position to spend a large amount on advertising, but want to be present on the popular media sites such as to pitch on potential customers.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

The Vancouver Island region has water to thank for its incomparable birding opportunities – more than 220 bird species are sighted here every year.
Ocean, marshes, lakes and rivers support a vast array of bird species, including bald eagles, brant geese and trumpeter swans. There are forests with birds such as owls and songbirds aplenty, too.
While bird numbers swell considerably during the spring and fall migrations, hundreds of species live year-round in the area, so anytime is a good time for birding on Vancouver Island. Some birding hotspots on Vancouver Island include Somenos Marsh Wildlife Refuge (Duncan), Courtenay River Estuary, Pacific Northwest Raptors, Swan Lake (Victoria), Esquimalt Lagoon (near Victoria), and Goldstream Provincial Park (near Victoria).
Most Vancouver Island birdwatching areas allow for self-guided birding tours, but there are also birding specific guided tours are available in some locations.

The wetland ecosystem of Somenos Marsh attracts many bird species all year long, with their numbers swelling significantly during the spring and fall migrations. Species commonly sighted around the water include Canada geese, mallards, wigeons, wood ducks and black-headed grosbeaks. Watch for owls in the woods around the marsh and listen for songbirds such as marsh wrens and warblers in the wet meadows nearby. Ospreys, northern harriers, red-tailed hawks and merlins use the marsh as a feeding ground.
Somenos Marsh Wildlife Refuge is located in Duncan, about a one-hour drive north from Victoria via Highway 1.
The Courtenay River Estuary is internationally recognized as a crucial staging area for migrating waterfowl and shorebirds. In springtime, spawning herring provide a feast for ospreys, eagles, loons and various other marine birds. The estuary is also a nesting and over-wintering habitat for thousands of birds, including over 2,800 trumpeter swans (10% of the North American population). There are four viewing shelters in the estuary but no blinds. Goose Spit is a good vantage point for viewing wintering ducks and seabirds, including grebes, wigeons, scaups and mergansers.
Courtenay River Estuary is located in Courtenay, a one-hour drive north from Nanaimo via Highway 19.
This centre specializes in training captive-bred raptors and their handlers as well as educating the public about birds of prey. Watch for owls, hawks, falcons and eagles on the grounds, which consist of woodlands and open fields. In addition to many species of raptors, the centre also houses a small number of injured wild birds. Flying demonstrations occur twice daily, weather permitting. Guided "hawk walks" are available. Visitors should be aware that there's an admission fee in effect.
Pacific Northwest Raptors is located in Duncan, about a one-hour drive north from Victoria via Highway 1.
The birding is excellent year-round at Swan Lake, but it's particularly good in late winter/early spring when the lake floods and expands into a wide, waterfowl-welcoming marsh. The fall migration also brings birds to the lake in great numbers, and don't discount visiting in winter when great blue herons, pied-billed grebes and other waterfowl are in residence. Swan Lake offers excellent viewing conditions: surrounded by fields and hedgerows, a 250m/820ft floating boardwalk runs through it, while floating wharves and bird blinds facilitate up-close viewing.
Enrich your experience of Swan Lake by visiting its Nature House, which features interpretive displays, a native-plant garden, a live bee "house" and a natural history reading room. There are also interpretive signs along the boardwalk to help you identify bird species as they come into view.
Swan Lake is a 10- to 15-minute drive north from downtown Victoria.
Esquimalt Lagoon is a federally designated migratory bird sanctuary. Double-crested cormorants and other shorebirds use an island in the middle of the lagoon for a favourite roosting place.
At low tide, gulls lounge in great numbers on several exposed gravel bars. Look carefully to spot Heermann's, Bonaparte's, ring-billed or California gulls lounging among more common species. Listen out for American robins, northern flickers or Steller's jays. Eagles, turkey vultures and Cooper's hawks swoop overhead from time to time.
The best time for viewing is during the spring and fall, when migratory birds take up residence. At these times, visitors can expect to see black oystercatchers, black-bellied plovers, sanderlings, killdeers and myriad other species.
Esquimalt Lagoon is a 25-minute drive west from downtown Victoria via Highway 1A.
Bald eagles are the avian stars of Goldstream Provincial Park. They return here annually to feed on the salmon spawning in Goldstream River. In recent years they've been turning up in record numbers. While December is the peak time for sighting eagles, the viewing is excellent anytime from mid-November through January. A video feed and telescopes in the Visitor Centre provide clear, close views of the eagles' activities. The centre also has a life-sized bald eagle nest on display and naturalists on hand at all times to answer visitors' questions.
Goldstream Provincial Park is a 25-minute drive northwest from downtown Victoria via Highway 1.

It's been quite a while and I have not been keeping up with my family's tree lately. With all the interest starting up again on Ameilia I thought I would try again to find out some information. My great grand mother is Mary Jane Earhart. Her husband is my great grand father James Cunningham Gallagher. I believe she may have been from the Saltsburg / Indiana County PA area. My Great Grandfather is from the Indiana / Westmoreland County PA area. At this time I do not have much info on Mary Jane. I think her father is Anthony Earhart which may be Amelia's 4G Grandfather. If you have any other information available it would be appreciated. Thank you, Kathy Gallagher Sader Notify Administrator about this message?

Life is a process of continual evolution for LA Galaxy defender Robbie Rogers both on the field and off.
In my latest piece for LAGalaxy.com, I spoke to Rogers about his attempt to reconnect with U.S. head coach Jurgen Klinsmann and the defender's perceptions on his legacy as the first openly gay athlete in a major American professional sport. However not all of my conversation with Rogers made the story.
Below are other excerpts from Rogers discussing his book Coming out to Play and his continued growth as a soccer player and a person.
(On his decision to write his book…)
ROGERS: It was definitely more about – After I came out publicly and had that relation from people which was something that I didn't think would happen in a million years, I realized that I could write a book about my story which so many people can relate to. The biggest difference that I've made is just being on the field and then afterward writing a book and going into detail and exposing a vulnerable part of myself helps as much as being on the field and playing.
(On his transformation as a gay athlete…)
ROGERS: "For me, it was about first whether my teammates respected me and if they did respect me and enjoyed playing with me. Of course, you want to accomplish things on the field. This year, especially, I was never thinking of myself as a gay athlete. That's the big difference between 2013 and 2014, last year I was on the road and I was the only gay guy and I had to deal with that which wasn't because of how I was treated by the team but what I was dealing with. This year, there were so many times where it just wasn't even an issue. I never had to talk about it. This year, I realized that when the book was coming out then but I would just not think about it."
(On how Rogers ultimately hopes that he's remembered when he decides to retire…)
ROGERS: I hope that I have a good enough career and I'm successful enough that people just think about me as a player on the Galaxy who helped win championships and played for good teams. I hope teammates like Landon, Robbie and Omar can remember me as a guy on their team who was a good soccer player and a good person, regardless of me being gay or straight.
(On whether he understands the conceptual change within him…)
ROGERS: I was so introverted and I was so afraid to have close relationships because I was afraid that people would get to know me. I was afraid to be this crazy person on the dance floor. I was so afraid of so many things and this year, it was so completely different and I'm so happy that I'm able to enjoy it. After all, if you can't enjoy winning a championship, what is the point of being a professional soccer player? What's the point of being successful in any career if you can't enjoy the little moments where you have a triumph. I think a lot of people can't enjoy moments because they want to move onto what's next, but I know that in that moment especially after what happened a few years earlier, I just had to cry. I was happy to show that emotion to them as well that they see that he's human.
(On the distinct difference between how he acted as a child and today…)
ROGERS: It's really sad. It's so sad how depressed and how homophobic I was to myself. I was simply isolated and alone, and afraid to share this side to anyone even myself. It's been two years since I came out and it's incredible how different things have been. My family wasn't ready to support same sex marriage but now they can't wait till I get married. It's crazy how things change so quickly. I can't explain that. It's really changed overnight.
(On whether he expected any anger from his stories in the book…)
ROGERS: This is all a learning experience. Everything in the book is the truth but I've just been supported by everyone that I spoke about in the book. I was able to then come out and move back to the states and go through everything that I went to. I heard the most ridiculous things from people who love me so much and I realized that they're not homophobic they say things because their church tells them to or to make people around them laugh or they're supposed to. I learned that people aren't homophobic but have this pack mentality which I was part of when I was younger.
(On dealing with the locker room mentality and the focus that has gotten since his announcement…)
ROGERS: When you live that your life, you've seen in it. Whether it was Columbus or Leeds or Holland or college or even when I was younger in High School, you hear on a daily basis that you shouldn't be such an [expletive] or don't be so gay. These are really things that you think when you are gay and you are raised that is wrong and you hear them, it slowly chips away at you. It makes you feel like you ever accept that side of you that something will change and they might not accept you. It scared the [expletive] out of me.
(On how his own insecurities played into the writing of his book…)
ROGERS: I didn't know the book would be so therapeutic. Just sitting with Eric and writing and talking for hours and hours helped me realized that I was raised for so long in an environment where I couldn't express myself. I'm still really bad at expressing myself and being open with people because for 20 years, I wasn't. Nothing changes over night. But Eric would say to me that he's 50 and he's still working on all his flaws. I didn't realize that was going to happen or take place. Our hope was to write a book that would reach people that had a gay son or knew someone that was gay and could read this and pass it along, but also help that person [that was reading]through whatever they were dealing with.
(On a unique experience speaking to people a book signing at a Los Angeles CostCo...)
ROGERS: Usually when you have an appearance or a book signing, people know who you are but at Costco, they don't have a connection [with a gay person]. People were coming up to me asking who I and I'd tell them, they'd sit there and read the book. They'd stand there and just keep reading then tell me 'oh my gosh, this is a great story. It's so great that you're doing" then they ended up buying a copy and telling me, I'm going to read this or give it to someone else and pass it along. I thought that this is great because not all these people are gay but they can read the story and connect to it. They realize that it's about someone who has a coming out experience that feels isolated and depressed at some point. They can pick the book up and relate to it. That was our hope, to connect with people that weren't necessarily in the LGBT community but felt that they had a coming out (either they had a divorce or changed religions and had to confront their family about it) we knew that."
(On his perceptions on the frustrating 2013 season with the Galaxy…)
ROGERS: It was weird. Even last year, I thought to myself that I hope other people come out because I didn't want to be the only gay athlete. I remember that 2013 was tough. I remember saying to my family that even when you come out, everything isn't great. You're still struggling with a lot of things. This year was more about finding a balance and being at peace with what I'm doing. I'm not just a gay athlete, I play for the Galaxy, I'm a left back and we have a good team. It was more than just that. It was just figuring out my life and being comfortable. I had just come out six months before I started playing with the Galaxy. It's not like you just come out and you've solved everything in life because you're still a 20-something trying to figure stuff out. But the book did help me figure out stuff about myself."
CARSON, Calif. – LA Galaxy II bolstered their attack on Sunday by signing Ariel Lassiter who is the son of former MLS goal scoring legend Roy Lassiter.
The 20-year-old attended Cal Poly San Luis Obispo in 2013 where he appeared in 21 games, tallying five goals and four assists. Lassiter's efforts helped him earn the Big West Conference All-Freshman team. A year later, Lassiter made the move to Sweden with Superettan side GAIS where he made 12 appearances with a single goal.
But before he was succeeding in Europe, Onalfo noticed during his time at Cal Poly that Lassiter had the talent to contribute on not only a USL PRO level, but an MLS level as well.
"He's a talented attacking player who is very fast. He's very polished and when I watched him play in college two years ago, he came on as a reserve, and as soon he stepped on the field, I thought 'whoa who is this kid,'" Onalfo recalled to LA Galaxy Insider. "Soon I realized that he was Roy's son. You could just see that he has all the physical and technical tools to be a big time player. Now it's just about teaching him the right way to do it and watching him progress.
"The kid is very talented and it's going to be exciting project to watch him grow and watch him develop."
CARSON, Calif. -- Dan Gargan entered the 2014 preseason unsure if he'll have a job and now a year later, he's signed a deal that will keep him in LA another year.
The club announced that they have re-signed the 32-year-old defender twho played in a total of 35 games in all competitions as the Galaxy won a fifth MLS Cup title, to a multi-year deal. A veteran outside back, Gargan played primarily on the right side of defense in 2014 while also seeing some action along the left side when needed.
Once preseason begins, Gargan will again likely slot in as the back-up right back behind fellow veteran A.J. DeLaGarza while serving as the primary right back when DeLaGarza is placed in the middle. Unlikely last year, however, he'll likely face compeition from youngster Oscar Sorto who is currently in camp with the U.S. National Team.
PHILADELPHIA – Count retired LA Galaxy legend Landon Donovan among those who were impressed by the club's ability to acquire Liverpool FC and former England captain Steven Gerrard to replace him as the team's third Designated Player.
In an interview with LA Galaxy Insider after the announcement that Major League Soccer will be naming their Most Valuable Player award, the "Landon Donovan MVP trophy," Donovan said that he was immensely pleased when he heard LA had signed the 34-year-old English soccer star.
"I was incredibly impressed with the [Galaxy's] ability to bring in a player like Steven Gerrard and that, he's the quality of player that they wanted," Donovan said. "When I played at Everton [Liverpool's arch rival], Everton fans hate Liverpool players and Liverpool fans, but Steven Gerrard was the one player that everyone respected on both sides. Everyone in the Premier League has so much respect for him and I can't think of a better person to come here and hopefully lead the team to a sixth trophy next year."
PHILADELPHIA -- The LA Galaxy dealt one of chief contributors to their 2014 MLS Cup title run on Thursday by trading Marcelo Sarvas to the Colorado Rapids, but the club now appears primed to replace the departing Brazilian with another top tier talent.
LA dealt Sarvas and an international roster spot to the Rapids on Thursday in a move that saw the Galaxy move up to the third spot on the league's allocation order. Reports have swirled that move will allow the Galaxy to acquire U.S. international Sacha Kljestan, a player who has long been on the club's radar. According to ESPN FC's Jeff Carlisle, the deal should allow the Galaxy the freedom to acquire Kljestan or any other returning U.S. international as neither the two teams ahead of them in the ranking, the Montreal Impact and San Jose Earthquakes are expected to impede LA's plans.
In addition to Arena speaking out about the Brazilian midfielder's departure, Sarvas' partner in central midfield Juninho also addressed his departure via his personal instagram.
"Marcelo, I want to wish you the best of luck in the next step of your life. Thank you for teaching me a lot of things about soccer, especially never giving up no matter the situation. You are a very good player and an example of dedication and companionship," Juninho said. "We were a good duo. It was a pleasure to play and live by your side and to know you in and off the field. Good luck to you in your next new club. LA, my family and I gonna miss you, Champion.'
Marcelo Sarvas was an integral part of the LA Galaxy's 2014 MLS Cup Championship campaign, but various reports are stating that the midfielder be on the move as part of a series of deals that could see Sacha Kljestan come to the StubHub Center.
Goal.com's Ives Galarcep and ESPN FC's Jeff Carlisle reported this week that with the Galaxy interested in signing Kljestan who is currently out of contract with Belgian club Anderlecht, Sarvas could be moved as part of a deal to acquire the Huntington Beach native. If Kljestan does sign with MLS, he will be subject to the league's allocation order which would require interested parties—reported to be LA, New York Red Bulls,Philadelphia Union, and Seattle Sounders FC—to trade up with the Montreal Impact, who currently hold the top spot.
Sources confirmed both reports by Goal and ESPN FC that the Brazilian midfielder is seeking a pay raise after his stellar 2014 season, despite Sarvas having one more year on his current contract. Carlisle reported that during the league's draft combine that several coaches said that would be interested in Sarvas if he were to become available by the Galaxy, including San Jose Earthquakes head coach Dominic Kinnear who's side holds the second spot in the allocation order.
Kinnear even addressed potential interest with a brief comment to Carlisle.
CARSON, Calif. – The signing Steven Gerrard represents a major addition for the LA Galaxy, but just where does the Englishman fit in an already stacked LA midfield?
The Galaxy lifted their fifth MLS Cup on the strength of one of – if not the best—midfield in Major League Soccer which was anchored by the Brazilian tandem of Juninho and Marcelo Sarvas. Meanwhile on the flanks, a hodgepodge of Landon Donovan, Baggio Husidic and Stefan Ishizaki provided width to a Galaxy attack that scored a league-high 69 goals during the regular season.
At the height of his powers, Gerrard was one of Europe's best midfielders with ability to not only provide defensive cover, but also create chances on his own due to his unparalleled work rate. In more recent times, Gerrard has settled into a holding midfield role that has allowed him to orchestrate from deeper in the parking and use his pinpoint passing to open up chances for teammates across the field.
Considering that at 35, Gerrard does not have the same engine that he had at his peak, Bruce Arena may opt to use the Englishman in defensive midfield capacity ala David Beckham in his final two seasons with the club.
What does Arena himself think? Well, the Galaxy head coach and general manager isn't focusing on it just yet.
"I'm not spending a whole lot of time thinking about that right now," said Arena during the team's media availability after announcing the signing. "We have seven months or so until Stevie arrives here in Los Angeles and we're going to play out the process of our team. We'll see how it moves forward and see how we're ready to utilize Stevie once he gets here."
But now I'll give you an option to predict the Galaxy's next midfield. Below are a series of midfield combinations and I'll allow you to decide which midfield you'd like to see lineup when Gerrard arrives. Obviously, the list is hardly exhaustive so add your own midfield combos in the comment section beneath.
It's officially official. Steven Gerrard is a member of the LA Galaxy.
The club announced on Wednesday morning that Gerrard will be joining the club upon the conclusion of Liverpool FC's 2014-15 English Premier League campaign and will be eligible to play for the club when the transfer window opens up in July. Per club and league policy, the details of the contract were not disclosed.
Stefan Ishizaki was heralded as a potential third attacking weapon in the LA Galaxy attack when he was signed last offseason, and while the Swede never truly blossomed into that type of offensive asset, he still put forth a strong season as he helped LA to a championship.
Appearing in all but four games during the entirety of the Galaxy's MLS slate, Ishizaki's ball skills played an important role in helping create the Galaxy's possession-oriented offense that tallied a league-leading 69 goals in 2014. Ishizaki's abilities led the Galaxy to trot the Swede out at the top of a midfield diamond early on in the season before he transitioned to a steady role as an attacking option along the left side of midfield as LA pushed toward their trophy. In total, Ishizaki ended the season with five goals and eight assists in all league competition in his first full season
With Landon Donovan gone, Ishizaki is among several will need to shoulder the burden left by the retiring U.S. soccer star during the 2015 season. If Ishizaki can truly become a true offensive weapon alongside Robbie Keane and Gyasi Zardes, the Galaxy will have every opportunity to retain their MLS Cup title.
How would you rate Ishizaki's 2014 campaign? Read my review of the LA Galaxy midfielders on LAGalaxy.com while also voting and commenting below.
CARSON, Calif. – No member of the LA Galaxy showed more growth and progress in 2015 than outside back Robbie Rogers.
In 2013, Rogers struggled with injuries en route to a disappointing season while also dealing with the scrutiny of being the first openly gay professional athlete in a major American sport. A year later, the story was far different for the 26-year-old as Rogers settled into a new role as the club's left back amid injuries to veteran options Todd Dunivant and James Riley. At the end of the season, Rogers solidified himself as one of the finest left backs in MLS as he was a vital part in the LA Galaxy's MLS Cup winning squad with 24 appearances in all MLS competitions with three assists.
As important as 2014 was for the defender, 2015 could be even bigger for Rogers as he looks to not further his development as an outside back, but also continue his push for a place on the U.S. National Team. With Jurgen Klinsmann's squad needing depth at left back ahead of the 2015 CONCACAF Gold Cup in light of DaMarcus Beasley's international retirement, Rogers may find a spot in the USMNT's depth chart.

At a Congressional hearing in July, American Farm Bureau President Bob Stallman said the 2012 Farm Bill must continue to provide a dependable safety net while also being fiscally responsible.
Stallman told the committee that an overriding farm bill priority for Farm Bureau is to maintain balance and benefits for all farm sectors.
It can be tempting for a single interest organization to say Congress should allocate more funding for programs that benefit only its producers without worrying about the impact of that funding shift on other commodities, Stallman said. Farm Bureau does not have that luxury and will seek balance for all producers.
OFBF is engaging with Midwestern state Farm Bureaus, university specialists and AFBF in an effort to develop a regionally supported set of farm policy recommendations. The organization will be working to get input from members on farm support programs, dairy policy and conservation.
AFBF also intends to work with Congress to work for the best possible policy within budget constraints.
Our members are greatly concerned about the deficit and want to be fiscally responsible in considering farm policy, Stallman said.
Stallman said the new farm bill also should consider and comply with recent world trade rulings, but the legislation must not presuppose the outcome of the Doha Round of WTO negotiations, which are far from complete. To do so would reduce our negotiating leverage.
Farm Bureau supports the safety net provided by the 2008 Farm Bill, but Stallman said changes that eliminate gaps and redundancies will be needed in light of tighter federal budget projections.

Stapleton is a small unincorporated community in northern Baldwin County, Alabama, United States, with a population of 519.[1]. It is part of the Daphne–Fairhope–Foley Micropolitan Statistical Area. Stapleton lies along U.S. Route 31 and State Route 59 and has been considered for incorporation within the cities of Loxley and Bay Minette. There is a bluegrass music festival held at Stapleton Elementary School every fall.
The first post office in the town of Canby, as Stapleton was then known, was established in 1895. Later, the Hamm brothers of Chicago, IL convinced the Louisville and Nashville Railroad (L&N) to build a subsidiary line between Bay Minette and Foley.[1] By 1905 this spur called the Bay Minette & Fort Morgan Railroad had penetrated the thirty-seven miles of dense Baldwin County pine forests with the town of Canby lying along the route.[2] Shortly afterwards the town's name was changed to honor W. D. Stapleton, the man who was instrumental in getting a railroad depot for their town. The railroad was important to the local economy and early on the trains passed through Stapleton several times a day as they made their way to the southern end of the county and back. Highway traffic also picked up as of 1936 when the only paved road in Baldwin County, other than a small strip in Bay Minette going from the courthouse to the railroad, was the stretch of US 31 coming in from Atmore and ending at Stapleton.[3] By the 1970s the train traffic had slowed down to at most one train making the down and back trip each day. Now the train tracks are completely gone.
Stapleton is zoned to schools in the Baldwin County Public Schools. Stapleton Elementary School serves grades Kindergarten through 6. Grades 7 through 8 go to Bay Minette Middle School. Grades 9 through 12 are zoned to Baldwin County High School.

Draft EIS: Public Comment Period Ends 04/20/15
This EIS will evaluate the potential environmental impacts of participating with Clean Line Energy Partners LLC (Clean Line) in the proposed Plains & Eastern Project. The proposed project would include an overhead ± 600 kilovolt (kV) high voltage direct current (HVDC) electric transmission system and associated facilities with the capacity to deliver approximately 3,500 megawatts (MW) primarily from renewable energy generation facilities in the Oklahoma Panhandle region to load-serving entities in the Mid-South and Southeast via an interconnection with the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA). -
Draft PEIS: Public Comment Period Ends 03/17/15
This Programmatic EIS (PEIS) will evaluate the potential environmental impacts of implementing one or more programs to catalyze the deployment of engineered high energy crops (EHEC). A main component of the proposed EHEC programs would be providing financial assistance to funding recipients, such as research institutions, independent contract growers, or commercial entities, for field trials to evaluate the performance of EHECs. Confined field trials may range in size and could include development-scale (up to 5 acres), pilot-scale (up to 250 acres), or demonstration-scale (up to 15,000 acres). This PEIS will assess the potential environmental impacts of such confined field trials in the southeastern United States. DOE's proposed action under this PEIS will be limited to the states of Alabama, Florida (excluding the Everglades/Southern Florida coastal plain ecoregion), Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia. -
Draft SA: Public Comment Period Ends 03/27/2015
DOE has prepared a draft Supplement Analysis to the Texas Clean Energy Project due to changes made to the project after the issuance of the record of decision. See the draft SA for more detailed information on these changes. -
Draft EA: Public Comment Period Ends 03/18/15
This EA will evaluate the potential environmental impacts associated with a proposal by Emera CNG, LLC that would include Emera's CNG plant Emera's CNG plant would include facilities to receive, dehydrate, and compress gas to fill pressure vessels with an open International Organization for Standardization (ISO) container frame mounted on trailers. Emera plans to truck the trailers a distance of a quarter mile from its proposed CNG facility to a berth at the Port of Palm Beach, where the trailers will be loaded onto a roll-on/roll-off ocean going carrier. Emera plans to receive natural gas at its planned compression facility from the Riviera Lateral, a pipeline owned and operated by Peninsula Pipeline Company. Although this would be the principal source of natural gas to Emera's CNG facility for export, during periods of maintenance at Emera's facility, or at the Port of Palm Beach, Emera may obtain CNG from other sources and/or export CNG from other general-use Florida port facilities. The proposed Emera facility will initially be capable of loading 8 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/day) of CNG into ISO containers and, after full build-out, would be capable to load up to 25 MMcf/day.For the initial phase of the project, Emera intends to send these CNG ISO containers from Florida to Freeport, Grand Bahama Island, where the trailers will be unloaded, the CNG decompressed, and injected into a pipeline for transport to electric generation plants owned and operated by Grand Bahama Power Company (GBPC).
DOE is authorizing the exportation of CNG and is not providing funding or financial assistance for the Emera Project.

Bar association studying Allegheny council vote on assessment appeals
The Allegheny County Bar Association is reviewing whether non-lawyers representing property owners in assessment appeals violates the law.
"We're doing some internal investigation of whether we should take some action," said Mark Vuono, bar association president.
County Council sparked the bar association's interest when it voted 12-1 this month to scrap a plan from the Board of Property Assessment Appeals and Review that would have required property owners who hire someone to appeal their assessments to use an attorney.
"Is business bad? This is nothing more than (lawyers) creating an oligopoly and making money," said Councilman Jim Ellenbogen, D-Banksville, who led the argument in rejecting the attorney rule. "This isn't a court of law. I don't see how it's a trial. It's not even a legal hearing."
Family, friends and others who represent people for free would have been exempt under the board's plan. A real estate appraiser or agent, for example, would not have been.
The same issue prompted the Allegheny County Bar Association to sue the board in 1999, which resulted in a settlement two years later. The terms said real estate professionals can assist property owners in filing appeals and can submit documentary evidence. Non-lawyers, however, could not present arguments on behalf of the property owner, cite case law or cross-examine witnesses.
Vuono and Councilwoman Heather Heidelbaugh, R-Mt. Lebanon, argued that bad lawyers can be disciplined while people who are not lawyers and do a poor job are not subjected to the same standards.
"I'm trying to protect the public, not the lawyers," Heidelbaugh said.
Several real estate brokers spoke out against the proposed rule, including Jerry Speer, owner of Equity Real Estate Services in Squirrel Hill.
"I agree that non-lawyers should not be practicing law, but neither should non-appraisers be acting as appraisers. There are very few, if any, legal issues at the appeals board level," said Speer, who serves on the board of directors for the Realtors Association of Metropolitan Pittsburgh and Pennsylvania Association of Realtors. "The issue is value."
David Montgomery, solicitor for the Board of Property Assessment Appeals and Review, has said the board has "seen a lot of problems with non-attorneys in terms of the quality and consistency."
The board has heard more than 103,000 appeals from last year's controversial property reassessment with more than 1,100 left to decide. It also has more than 15,000 appeals to hear from this year.
William Hoffmeyer, co-chairman of the Unauthorized Practice of Law Committee of the Pennsylvania Bar Association, said he plans to send a letter to County Council informing it that non-lawyer representation violates existing case law.

Baby Boomers Are in Downsizing Mode
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- At 78 million strong, baby boomers usually get what they want as consumer.
That's how we got the Ford Mustang, lite beer, granite countertops and video on demand. The younger half of the boomers famously said, "I want my MTV" -- and they got it.
So when boomers start saying they're tired of "going big" on everything from cheeseburgers to McMansions, businesses better begin paying close attention, and that's exactly what the generation born between 1946 to 1964 is saying now. It's a downsizing world they want, and they're going to get it, but not without the amenities and comforts the materialistic boomers are famous for.
"Those baby boomers who worked hard for and embraced the affluent lifestyle of the 1970s through the middle of the last decade owning large homes and spacious vehicles -- have reached a turning point," says Sheryl Connelly, global consumer trends and a "futurist" for Ford. "This generation is now trending toward a simpler way of living, one that doesn't eliminate the lavish comforts they've come to enjoy.
"The boomer population has always set the trends," she adds, "and now they've set a course for a more streamlined life that doesn't sacrifice style and comfort." Ford, along with the multibrand homebuilder Del Webb, commissioned a study on what boomers want these days and found that the demographic is tired of paying huge mortgages for large homes, and big payments for outsized SUVs. Instead, most boomers are turning to smaller, quieter homes and say they want to drive mini-sized, more energy efficient utility vehicles. Home sizes are going especially full circle. Del Webb notes that homes sizes have grown from 860 square feet in 1960 to 2,505 square feet in 2012. But the homebuilder says the times really are changing, and that 28% of Americans between the ages of 55 and 59 say they plan to downsize on their next home purchase. Previously, it was the 65-years-old-and-up demographic driving the downsizing, but that is trending younger these days, Del Webb says. That doesn't mean boomers necessarily want to give up those granite countertops they're just going be more selective, and more judicious before they sign any checks. "Boomers may be downsizing," says Steve Burch, vice president of strategic marketing for Del Webb, "but they have worked for a long time, and they don't want to compromise on high-end [home] features." The same sentiment goes for what vehicles boomers park in their driveways these days. According to Ford, the auto giant says it's seeing more interest in its compact SUV, the Escape, which is 31% smaller than the 2014 Ford Explorer. Ford says that compact vehicle sales have "steadily climbed" since 2004, and that trend is accelerating 10 years later. "Trendy baby boomers want to downsize their homes and their vehicles, but they're not willing to give up premium content in either case," says Amy Marentic, a marketing manager at Ford. "Personally, I felt the need to downsize. My children are in college and I have no need for the larger utility any more, but I still want to feel like I'm driving something special."Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

The acquisition is accretive to Fairfax on several metrics, including gross revenue per share and investments per share, the company said in a statement.
Key to fixing the retail division would be stripping out costs, Karen Fawcett, global head of the bank's retail clients unit, told Reuters in an interview.
Several billion dollars in potential fines were avoided when US District Court Judge Carl Barbier put the size of the spill at 3.19 million barrels.
