Briggs is looking for Service Technicians for many different locations. I was visiting the #miami location and was very impressed with the group. If you know #Forklifts and are in the area, or anywhere in the southeast or #Texas and are #lookingforwork, I suggest you check them out. If you applied to Miami and get an interview, tell Kevin I sent you! #nowHiring

Are you #lookingForWork? Briggs has #Hyster and #Yale dealerships across the south and have openings for lots of positions, road techs, shop techs, PM techs, and others. I know Miami (was there last week) is looking for 4+ good folks to work on lifts. Tell Kevin I sent you if you apply for Miami! Let me know if you apply. Its hard finding good people, and our dealer network has openings across the country, so pass this along to a friend if you know someone looking.
+Sean Cowen +Carter Gibson and +Ryan Van Sickle do y'all mind spreading the news on this to your base? Looking for work is always rough, but if we can help someone find work that's not working, or find a better gig, we've done a good thing.

It's awesome to see that Pluto is geologically active. You see the 'droplets' in the largest photo on this link that form at some of the fissures. Expansion and contraction likely form the fissures and pressures cause points of rupture forming these points on the fissures. Incredible that something so small isnt dormant and opens the rest of the universe to the possibility of highly active non earth landscapes. I about tidal force heating from the moon can explain Pluto's body temp, so this is exciting chemistry/physics to learn more about!

The giant crab, derpy somehow landing an 18wheeler on a roof, pinkie getting kicked off the roof by flutters. This picture is so damn cool.
I Spy with my one little eye, Molestia and Twilight in one of the motel windows. Am I correct?
This should be fun! And considering what Sketchy's gonna do seeing Rarity being eyed by that unlucky bastard, well, I'm gonna need more popcorn for this bloodbath
*radio calls sketchy* Dragunov Turbo on the way *supresses the target in mustang in the head* ok done!
Oh crap, I see your angered/surprised face in the background. With a revolver.
The symbol on that van looks very familiar...
dats a nice car.
this is based of a flash game where the objective is to kill everyone without anyone noticing. i forgot what its called
Hotline Miami?
I think the game you're thinking of is called "The Ship" and I didn't base the is pic off of that game! lol
"The Ship" is part of a series of games like that. so it's *I forgot what they're called* but okay
i really like the style of the ponies aswell as the creativity in the scenery!
Great job!
Ponys have a thing for Mustangs. That's why its a PONY-car.
Tell me something, did Scootaloo hung herself because she's depressed of not able to fly?
Why can't Derpy stay on the damn road?!
Dang, there's got to be a word to describe this style of art. Sad that I don't know considering Route 66 goes straight through my state and I'm exposed to art like this during my history lessons. I totally love it though and its great to see some people still use it today, especially with yours. Most people I know hardly care about classic cars, endless highway, and the kind of geography that makes up the SouthWestern States. I love how American this is even with all the silly gags around it. Keep it up!
My... All I can say is there's a lot of things happening in one place.
This place is hopping!
The strange things I noticed:
Fluttershy bucking Pinkie off of the roof.
"Plot Holes Bar" picture seems to have a model of Twilight on it with the cutie mark replaced by XXX.
Slenderpony in the shadows of the garage.
Angry gangster (possibly with Derpy in the driver's seat).
Derpy murdered someone while trying to delivery mail.
"MilkT" license plate on an unknown vehicle.
Twilight and Molestia together on the second floor.
A murder on the top floor.
Scootaloo hung herself.
Sweetie Belle riding a giant crab.
Slutty Rarity not giving a shit about the giant crab.
And something weird in the room above Scootaloo.
Derpy's been watching Jerma and STAR_. She's learned the truck punchline.
Im confused and don't know whats going on here. But i see Rares in fishnets and that is instant-fave.
i love you guy (i'm serieous !!!)you'r an exemple for my bro
Damn! That's awesome.
Just wondering... who got crushed by the big rig?
Just wondering... who got crushed by the big rig?
"Plot Holes Bar"... well that phrase just took on a whole new meaning in my head, sick f**k that I am.
I love what's going on with Pinkie Pie here.
Thanks for adding them! ^^
that Derpy's truck is absolutely hilarious!
And bonus points for slutty Rarity. That's my headcanon for her
About Twilestia... Hm... I'm not a fan of that fanon, if I might say so.
Hm... is that Scootaloo hanging herself in that window? you really do hate her. But I'm not sure what happens in the window above her.
Slutty Rarity!? You legings and a skrit on a naked pony and that makes them slutty? lol
And I hate Twilight and Sun Butt, but putting Molistia creeping on Twi is funny as hell!
The pony shadow is smoking a bong!
And I hate Twilight and Sun Butt, but putting Molistia creeping on Twi is funny as hell!

yes, such clothes on a naked pony suggests such a thing. I don't know why, but it does.
maybe because normally they don't wear clothes
oh, come on, you know what I mean When people want to make a "Suggestive" picture of a pony, they often put some clothes, like short skirts, underwear, socks etc. etc. on ponies. Plus, Rarity being sketchy's GF and flirting with that guy...
btw, she has clothes, but no underwear
About awesomeness of Season 4 - I'm gonna wait until I see what they made of alicorn Sparkle.
This came out very nicely

Will a hemp topical ointment make me fail a drug test?

Answers (2)

Hemp is Cannibis sativa, the same as the marijuana plant, but there are varieties that have little THC. THC is the chemical that gets one high when using marijuana and THC is what will trigger a positive result on a drug test. With a well refined oil, this shouldnt be a problem but if the oil is poorly refined and has plant material left clinging to the seeds when pressed it can be possible to have very small amounts of THC but it really shouldnt be enough to trigger a positive result unless it is a very sensitive test. If you use a quality refined product you should have no problems-good question though!

If Jim Yong Kim wants to 'bend the arc of history', he should start by addressing long-standing inequalities in his own organisation
At the World Bank IMF annual meeting in Tokyo this month, Jim Yong Kim promised to bring in an era of reformsaying: "While I'm excited by how much the bank has changed around openness and results and accountability, I believe the bank can go further."
One step in this direction would be for the bank to address racial inequalities in its staffing at the senior level and to become open and accountable about its progress towards this end.
At issue is the conspicuous under-representation of African-Americans at senior levels of the bank. In 1978 William Raspberry reported in the Washington Post that there were only three black Americans, out of 619 Americans working at the World Bank. Thirty years later (in a report titled "Racial discrimination at the World Bank: a review of the treatment of black employees in recruitment, retention and justice decisions" (pdf)) the Washington-based Government Accountability Project (Gap) reported that of more than 1,000 American World Bank staff of professional grade, four were African-Americans.[view whole blog post ]

#150 "NeeNee & Hack episode 3: Busy Day At The Office"
I attempted to make a comic with a lot of stuff to read and look at. I think I succeeded in creating a busy feel, hence the title. Looking at NeeNee keeping so busy at the office on the day after her ultramarathon, I see myself—except she has nicer legs, hair, and that sensational beauty mark. I'm totally connected to online running communities the day after a big race. I don't like to miss one comment, reply, like, share, or pic.
If I could, I would try an Endorphipatch. Imagine feeling all day like you had a great run. If the real reason I run is that I'm actually addicted to my own endorphins, then it's conceivable that the patch could replace running. I could get the same satisfaction and never leave the couch. Something to consider...

Brandon firm takes top honorsApril 01,2013Brandon firm
takes top honors
BRANDON The McKernon Group placed first in the category of Commercial Renovation by the Home Builders and Remodelers Association of Southern Vermont.
Known locally and statewide for its residential and light commercial projects, The McKernon Group was honored for its renovation of the Lake Placid Pub and Brewery in Lake Placid, N.Y.
The building underwent a facelift and upgrade to maximize the use of the restaurant and brewery space.
The restaurant and brewery remained open during the eight months of construction. The building is now handicapped accessible. The use of spray foam insulation has also reduced the owners heating bills.
The project was evaluated for its construction practices, craftsmanship, energy-saving design and materials.MORE IN National / World BusinessUnder pressure to prevent people from sneaking onto runways and planes at major U.S. Full StoryDALLAS Shareholders at Exxon Mobil and Chevron rejected resolutions backed by environmentalists...

Nice to hear that RT is also continuing to improve.
I use LR4, am I missing out on better RAW processing by not checking out RT or DT (mentioned above)?

Historical Traveler Reviews Zante Studios Apartments - Pefka Vasilikos
A haven from the noise!
We stayed here for one night at the end of October. The hotel is in a good central location, yet on a side street. Via Roma and other main roads nearby are VERY noisy so a quieter street was welcome.
Very modern hotel, foyer with small bar, style is clean lines and minimalist furniture.The room was modern, spacious, had nice tiled bathroom, TV - everything you would expect from this class of hotel. Only negative point was that the room did smell of smoke despite it being a non-smoking room.
Staff were helpful and the breakfast was ample.
I got a reduced rate booking with Accor hotels on line - paid 80 Euros instead of the 200 Euros listed at reception.
Excellent hotel, wonderful welcome, top facilities, great bed and bath, good location, good concierge, breakfast very dissappointing - processed juice, poor chocolate, hard fruit, cheap jam and ordinary bread.
Remarkable value
Italian hotels tend to be somewhat on the erratic side in my experience, particularly at this price range, but the Mercure was lovely. A new building, great breakfast (after a week of being served bread and marmalade in other parts of Sicily), big properly soundproofed rooms, large terrace attached to our room, nice bed linen, comfortable beds, spacious contemporary bathrooms (though my shower door leaked), helpful staff who could advise us on where to shop, eat, etc, temperature-controlled rooms, great location, internet access. I was particulary surprised at the price. I paid Euro 111 per night per room, and therefore expected it to be a little ropey. Not so.
Mercure perfect
Yep it looks drab from the outside but.... we stayed for 3 nights in this modern, excellent, centrally located hotel. just off one of the main streets in the centre of town, this hotel is a must for those people craving modernity with great service. Just round a couple of corners from late night street cafes and bars. If you want a fantastic hotel for a few nights go for it. Oh and the buffet breakfast is worth getting up for.
Clean and Quiet
We stayed two nights at Mercure Palermo Centro Hotel. The hotel looks unispiring from outside, but inside was an oasis of peace and relaxation. The hotel looked recently renovated, with the lobby and the rooms very clean and modern looking. The elevators and hallways were small and older than the rest of the hotel. The rooms were clean and spacious with a large bathroom. The breakfast was excellent, with a wide choice of fresh fruits, cakes and different types of bread. Cappucinno and expresso were available free on request. The reception staff was young and very helpful despite their limited knowledge of english.
Fantastic hotel!
True 4* hotel - interior fantastic even if exterior is a little disappointing. Very modern and chic - large rooms as well as bathrooms and balconies. Great breakfast. Out of peak hours staff do not speak English but not a problem as such. Location very close to the main high street in Palermo.
We only stayed one night at this hotel during our one week holiday in Sicily but it was by far the best. Take advantage of Hotels offer of �55 per room per night, whereas if you booked directly or through some other sites, you could easily pay more than double this price for a standard double room.
Enjoy Palermo! Visit Santandrea restaurant as it is supposed to be simply the best in town and we have enjoyed our meal tremendously there - fresh Sicilian produce yet with an innovative twist. We also left our �400 camera there and thought that we will never see it again when we realised the next morning, but they picked it up and returned to us 4 days later when we were passing through Palermo once again. Amazing!
An absolute gem
My friend and I stayed here in a twin room. The hotel is a spotless, friendly oasis in Palermo and is well located. The breakfast was possibly the best I've had in Europe. Our room was quiet and we found the modern, designer decor very refreshing in such a loved, but dusty, city! It also has a secure, carpark underneath which was very helpful for us. Couldn't rate it highly enough.
Liked it very much
Liked this hotel very much. Very nice area (2 blocks from via roma) and were able to park our rental car across the street from the hotel.
Room was large and the bathroom very large (shower doors instead of a flimsy curtain). Breakfast served in a bright and airy room.
The staff are all young, good looking people and are very helpful with
giving directions, recommendations etc.
They have a happy hour which was packed (we did not attend, just passed through going to our room) each day.
Would recommend highly to anyone visiting the noisy but very much loved city of Palermo.
Booked the room thru Octopustravel Rate lower then rate given by Mercure Hotels directly.
Great Hotel
We stayed in the Mercure Centro in April 2005, and were very impressed.
The hotel is very modern and completely new.It feels more Manhattan the Palermo. The room and the bathroom were very clean and tastefully decorated. The buffet breakfast was great and served in a nice bright room. The location of the hotel is excellent, right in the heart of Palermo next to theatro Massimo and Via Roma. And off course very good deal, we paid only Eruro 80 per night breakfast included. I defenetly will go back.

We left Trapani at 10 AM on Friday by bus retracing the route back to Palermo arriving about noon. After checking into the hotel and having lunch we attacked the city by Hop on Hop off bus!

It's pretty chaotic in the narrow old streets, many now of which have been closed to traffic. ...

Annotate this Case
- Syllabus
- Case
U.S. Supreme Court
Sy Joc Lieng v. Gregorio Sy Quia, 228 U.S. 335 (1913)
Sy Joc Lieng v. Gregorio Sy Quia
No. 177
Argued March 7, 10, 1913
Decided April 14, 1913
Every presumption is in favor of the validity of a marriage where the marital relations have continued uninterruptedly for over forty years without any question's being raised or right asserted by anyone claiming under an earlier marriage of one of the parties until more than ten years after the death, and five years after the distribution of the property, of that party.
The validity of such a marriage should not be impugned except upon clear, strong, and unequivocal proof; nor, in the absence of such proof, will this Court reverse the judgment of the lower court sustaining its validity when attacked by those who had opportunity to do so before the death of both spouses.
16 Phil. 137 affirmed.
The facts, which involve conflicting claims to the estate of a Chinese merchant domiciled in the Philippine Islands and of the validity of his marriage, are stated in the opinion.

Thousands of Australians huddled in shelters Tuesday as torrential rains flooded cities and towns in the northeast, killing four people and prompting around 1,000 helicopter evacuations.

Well, I've been a good girl this year, and it seems Santa has rewarded me…
I am now the proud owner of some CFL lights, which means that (with a centrally heated house, and the Stewart propagator) I don't need to sit on those hands any more!
So I've spent the morning sterilising seed compost/vermiculite/perlite in a ratio of 4:1:1 in the microwave and sowing a few new varieties (just the Chinense, which, I hope, will benefit from an early start). Not entirely sure how I'm going to rig up the lights/reflectors, but I do have 2 old wardrobes, which could be pressed into service, if the need arises
I'm very excited about the Cajamarca and the Datil, and also the Zimbabwe Bird. Come to think of it… I'm also very excited about the Rocoto (which, granted, aren't a Chinense, but which can apparently be tricky to germinate, and which have also gone in today)
The rest will go in in about a month's time
I've gone for fewer of more varieties this year, which is a good job: Because the Dining Room is full of the overwintering plants… So potentially there's still another urban Chilli jungle to be created
MrKittin is currently shaking his head and ordering bargain CD's off Amazon… LOL
Capsicum baccatum
Chilli "Trinidad Scorpion 2012"
Capsicum chinense
Capsicum frutescens
Chilli "Chocolate Habanero Long"
Capsicum chinense
Capsicum chinense
Capsicum pubescens
Capsicum chinense
Capsicum chinense
Capsicum chinense
Capsicum chinense
This really is an early start – hope it pays off.
What ones are you overwintering? Have you done this before? Can the plants be overwintered for indefinite years or do they become less productive with age? Perhaps you could do a journal on the subject – I'd be very interested in your experiences.
Here my musings on "over-wintering" from last year…. http://myfolia.com/journals/100077-thoughts-on-overwintering-chillies. For 2011 I'm over-wintering more, and have done it slightly differently: I'll post a separate entry
Re the early start: The plan is to give the seedlings a boost under artificial light, just until mid-Feb, or so, when there should be enough natural light to take over. If it doesn't work, I'll go back to a late January sowing, with a back up plan for a 3rd sowing on Valentine's day!
What a great list! Mmmmm! Hope you have a bumper harvest!

Fans Have A Voice
by Paul on 03/13/08 at 01:57 PM ET

from Jim Boone at the Hockey News,
Most hockey fans have never heard of the National Hockey League Fans' Association, or NHLFA. Yes, there is such an organization representing the common, fifth-line fan.
Many people are surprised at the stats of this little not-for-profit organization. The NHLFA has been battling much bigger opponents for a respectable 10 seasons.
It all started in 1997, when two Ottawa schmucks vented over the astronomical offer the New York Rangers had made to restricted free agent Joe Sakic ($21M over three years, which the Avalanche matched to retain his rights). Bob Goodenow was five years into his impressive tenure leading the NHL Players' Association. The schmucks, along with millions of hockey fans, feared rising ticket prices would severely damage the sport we loved. We knew something had to be done to protect the fans.

A Dog's Breakfast

From Pierre LeBrun at Sportsnet,
Call it a dog's breakfast or a fantastic race, but I can't remember the last time five teams were neck and neck for the Eastern Conference title with only three and a half weeks remaining in the regular season.
"Isn't it something?," agreed New York Rangers head coach Tom Renney.
Oh yeah, in case you haven't noticed, the Rangers have knocked down the front door to the first-place party and are dancing with New Jersey, Montreal, Ottawa and Pittsburgh in the bid for the No. 1 seed in the weaker Eastern Conference (let's be honest, Detroit, San Jose, Dallas and Anaheim would walk away with this conference… but I digress…)

Call me sentimental, a purist or just plain old, but there are times when I just miss those grand old ladies.
Some of you may remember them, others probably choose to say good riddance in an era of luxury boxes and eight-sided scoreboards.
Maple Leaf Gardens. Montreal Forum. Boston Garden. Chicago Stadium. The Olympia. The Spectrum.

A Race to the Finish
by Alanah McGinley on 03/11/08 at 03:49 PM ET
Comments (0)
From Eric Duhatschek at the Globe & Mail,
Owen Nolan called it "nuts … I've never been a part of something this tight." Alex Tanguay ventured that there were "no easy games" anymore. Jarome Iginla calculated that it would take 96 points to guarantee his Calgary Flames team a playoff spot. Coach Mike Keenan acknowledged once again that he is no fan of the three-point game, in which two teams can — and frequently do - earn a valuable point if a game goes into overtime or a shootout.
All of them were talking about the crazy playoff race in the NHL's Western Conference which — in the past week or so — sorted itself out into hockey's version of musical chairs, with nine contenders essentially vying for eight spots. The usual cast of also-rans have fallen far enough off the pace that they retain only the slim, Leaf-like hope for a miracle finish and a spot in post-season play.

from NHL.com,
New York/Prague—The dream of bringing NHL hockey to Prague, Czech Republic, became a reality today as Prague Mayor Pavel Bem hosted representatives from the New York Rangers, Tampa Bay Lightning and the National Hockey League at the city's Old Town City Hall. The group officially announced that as part of "NHL Premiere 2008" the Rangers and Lightning will open the 2008-09 NHL regular season with two games against each other Oct. 4th and 5th at the newly-named O2 Arena in Prague.
The Pittsburgh Penguins and Ottawa Senators will also open the 2008-09 regular season Oct. 4th and 5th in Europe, with two games in Stockholm, Sweden.

I have received a lot of emails today from people asking me about the talk of playing the next NHL outdoor game at Yankee Stadium.
My repeated answer, nothing has been decided yet and don't look for an official announcement from the NHL in the near future.
They have put out feelers but way too early to make any site a lock for the game.
The godfather of hockey says Detroit will be involved while Blue Notes has some updated information.

Playing with the Big Boys

From David Amber at ESPN,
It's not an accident that the average NHL player measures in at 6-foot-1 and 204 pounds. Still, in a game of strength and force, speed and grace are equally important. In this week's 10 Degrees, we look at the best players under 6-foot and 200 pounds.
10. Ray Whitney, Carolina Hurricanes (5-foot-10, 180 pounds)
With 900 career NHL games under his belt, Ray Whitney has been one of the league's more effective wingers. The seven-time 20-goal scorer made huge plays for Carolina during its Stanley Cup run two seasons ago, and Whitney continues to impress this season, ranking second in team scoring with 59 points.

Fighting About Fighting
by Alanah McGinley on 03/10/08 at 04:38 PM ET
Comments (0)
From Jeff Marek at CBC,
If you ever find yourself in a disagreement over hockey fights with someone make sure the first question out of your mouth is "if they took fighting out of the game, would you start to buy tickets?" If the answer is "no," then the argument is over, walk away. Those are people that some in the NHL can reach and become the "new" hockey fan, I personally believe quite the opposite is true.
In the league's quest to grow the sport and reach out and absorb more fans, they have also run the risk of alienating the ones who are paying the freight and keeping the lights on now. Thankfully the NHL has taken the right approach to fighting and quietly let it exist. Of course, there is the not-so-little issue of the instigator penalty, but that's for another day.

Gretzky Safe
by Paul on 03/10/08 at 03:17 PM ET
Comments (0)
from Al Strachan at Fox Sports,
The simple fact is this: Unless the NHL alters its style radically in the next few years — and there is absolutely no reason to believe that it will — every single one of Gretzky's meaningful records will still be intact.
Crosby might be able to overtake one of Gretzky's regular-season marks, but only because the rules have changed since Gretzky's day. And even that one is still very much in doubt. If Crosby does manage to take over any of Gretzky's spots in the record book, it will almost certainly have to be in the area of All-Star records, a relatively meaningless category since the annual game is played without almost any intensity.

GoNOMAD Book Excerpt:
Scenic Attractions, History and Economics
Michael D. Yates' Cheap Motels and a Hot Plate: An Economist's Travelogue is an interesting tour guide combining attractions, history, economics, and politics all into one. It is a fascinating read for anyone wanting to work on the road and gain inspiration, as well as for people who want to learn more about different parts of the United States. -- Renee Estey
The Environment: Act Five, Whither the National Parks?
Between early May and late August, we visited Joshua Tree, Grand Canyon, Petrified Forest/ Painted Desert, Rocky Mountains, Arches, Canyonlands, Zion, Bryce Canyon, Grand Tetons, Yellowstone, Glacier, Mt. Rainier, Olympic National Park, Walnut Creek, Tuzigoot, Sunset Crater Volcano, Wupatki, Bandelier, and the Colorado National Monument.
All are national treasures; each one has scenery as dramatic as most people will ever see: natural bridges and arches, waterfalls, fantastic canyons, buttes, monoliths, hoodoos, and astonishing rapids. We were in these parks dozens of times.
Seldom were we disappointed; almost always we were exhilarated. It is impossible to see the Balanced and Delicate Arch in Arches, Grand View in Canyonlands, the sand beaches and lush foliage in the Narrows in Zion, the thousand-year-old trees in Rainier's Grove of the Patriarchs, or the eight-hundred-year-old petrified lava flows at Sunset Crater and not be mindful of the vast indifference of nature and our insignificant part in it.
The human world, with its relentless injustices and inequalities, is put in sharp relief and made all the more intolerable. In the face of such beauty, it is surely an unforgivable crime for any society to let its people live in misery.
Products of Social Structure
But if the parks are beautiful, they are also the products of the social structures that created them. Yellowstone was our first national park, established in 1872.
Michael D. Yates
Already when George Catlin was waxing eloquent about establishing "a magnificent park, where the world could see for ages to come, the native Indian in his classic attire, galloping his wild horse, with sinewy bow, and shield and lance, amid the fleeting herds of elks and buffaloes," white settlers and the government had begun brutal campaigns to remove the natives from their land.
The history of the national parks is marked by systematic and, for the most part, successful efforts to remove indigenous people from them. In Yellowstone, for example, many Indians traversed what is today the park to hunt, but a cornerstone rule in the national parks is that there cannot be any hunting.
In some cases the "treaties" entered into by the U.S. government guaranteed the Indian nations traditional hunting rights, but these agreements were routinely broken. (I put treaties in quotes because these treaties were ordinarily faits accomplish made after white settlers had entered and taken possession of land and the government stood ready to ratify this theft by force if necessary.)
Only one group of Indians lived in Yellowstone, the Sheepeater Shoshone, who managed to survive in this harsh wilderness, with its killing winters, by hunting and eating the mountain sheep native to the region.
The tribe was physically removed from the park in 1879 (in that year fifty-two members of the tribe, mainly women and children, were hunted down and subdued by the U.S. Army after a three-month search.)
This process of removal from areas designated national parks was repeated again and again. Indians might be tolerated for a while in the parks, either because they were too numerous to remove at once or because they could be utilized commercially, as hunting guides or performers for the rising number of tourists, but not because the parks had been their land.
Interestingly, the first rationalization for national parks was that they would serve as "monuments," signifying the grandness of the new nation, just like the human-made monuments of European countries denoted their majesty.
They would mark the United States as a great nation, one whose very terrain was more magnificent than that of any other country in the world. That they were not human-made meant that God himself must have singled out this new nation as something special, one which, by its very nature (literally speaking), was Olympian.
However, in a country founded upon the transcendence of commerce, it was not long before monetary interests came to the forefront. Ironically, later rationalizations for the parks were rooted in the notion of communal property, that is, the national parks would belong to all of the people.
But at the same time, the communal holding of land and the absence of any concept of private property in many Indian groups were condemned as unnatural, as communistic, and a sign of the Indians' primitive thinking. Many leaders argued that only when the Indians were forced to accept private ownership could they become productive citizens of the United States.
Spurred on mainly by the burgeoning railroads, the government acquired, by bogus treaty or by force, more land for the national parks. Constant conflicts occurred between the government and other commercial interests, such as timber and mining companies, and these were resolved in various ways.
These commercial interests were not always satisfied, but neither were they ignored. For example, George W. Bush is not opposed to the mining of uranium on the south rim of the Grand Canyon. Soon a variety of tourist attractions, run by private commercial interests, sprang up and began to make considerable sums of money.
National Park Reform
We have given a lot of thought to national park reform. I offer some recommendations, with an acknowledgement to Edward Abbey, who has similar proposals in Desert Solitaire:
- Sharply reduce the money spent on road construction. As soon as a park has been established, private interests, keen on the arrival of waves of money-bearing motorized tourists, began petitioning Congress for funding and a frenzy of construction begins.
As this process continues, traffic mounts and visitors are stalled for hours in traffic jams. Highways encourage the use of super-sized SUVs and RVs, which slow down traffic further, damage the roads (requiring more repairs), and make accidents more likely.
- Stop building parking lots and paving trails. At Grand Canyon, a visitor can almost drive a car to the rim by the El Tovar Hotel (named after one of the Spanish imperialists, Coronado's men, who came north aiming at conquest and were the first Europeans to see the Grand Canyon).
Visitors walk from their vehicles or the hotel to an overlook, take a few pictures, and head back to the snack shop for ice cream. Parking lots and paved trails ruin much of the experience of seeing a natural wonder.
On one such trail, built for persons with disabilities and from which there are no views of the canyon, workers have actually spray-painted rocks to look like the red earth of the canyon. At one visitor's center, signs give distances to various buildings in feet so as not to discourage the millions of sightseers who are too unfit to move on foot.
- Build more trails, maintain existing trails, and encourage exploration. Rangers should lead more excursions into the parks, and they should be teaching us to survive in the wilderness: how to climb, find water, pitch tents, find and prepare food, use a compass, deal with bears and other dangerous animals, ford streams, walk on ice and snow, treat bug and snake bites, identify the things seen on the trails, and dozens of other activities. The rangers should have better job protection and pay.
- Eliminate the park hotels. The parks ought to be publicly operated, not run by profit-seeking corporations. Expensive private accommodations should be converted into cheap publicly owned hostels and more hostels built, with bunk beds and basic supplies provided.
Campgrounds, with water for showers and drinking, should be expanded, and more should be built. Inexpensive nutritious foods should be available for sale, and tents should be available for rent.
- Working people, people of color, and young people should be actively encouraged to visit. Thousands of "scholarships" should be granted, maybe through a lottery, so that people without means can see their parks.
They are supposed to be for everyone, but that is not the case. Their remote locations and commercial focus make them all but inaccessible to people without time and money. The proportion of park visitors who are people of color (except for Asian tourists) is very much less than the proportion of the population comprised of blacks, Hispanics, and Indians.
It is possible to hike an entire day in Rocky Mountain National Park or Arches or even Yellowstone and not see a single person of color. And given the expenses associated with a park visit (gas, entrance fee, camping or motel fees, etc.), poor people are unlikely to ever come to a national park.
Remember the activities I sold at the Lake Hotel. Their prices in 2006 are as follow: coach rides: $9.46; "authentic" Western cookouts: $53.04, extra if combined with a horse ride; guided fishing tours: $148.40 for two hours; several types of bus tours of the park: $26.50 to $58.24, and a photo "safari":$57.20.
A family trip to Yellowstone for even a few days will cost a lot. This means that as economic inequality worsens in the United States, the parks will become retreats for those in the top quintile of the income distributed.
- Prohibit, wherever feasible, automobile traffic in the parks. Have a few large lots at the entrances and shuttles and bikes readily available. This is done now during the summer and fall at Zion National Park, and it works well.
- Forbid concessionaire activities, except perhaps for some cooperative ventures with small local enterprises to supplement the rangers. Examples are rafting, pack trips, and the like.

The cubs' names are a reminder of last year's conflict with Israel
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's closest political ally has called for Israel to carry out a "thorough cleansing" of the Gaza Strip as a tenuous ceasefire between its Hamas rulers and the Jewish state frayed.
Attack came in response to 'intolerable act of aggression against Israel and its civilians'
Attack that hit 'top militant' is most serious test yet of the Egyptian-brokered truce
Militants in Egypt's Sinai Peninsula fired at least two rockets at Israel's southern resort town of Eilat early Wednesday, officials said, highlighting what Israel says is a dire security situation across its border.
A flawed, partisan portrait of the Israel Palestine conflict that misses an opportunity
Marian Farhat, who died on 17 March aged 64, was a Palestinian lawmaker known as "the mother of martyrs" who praised and supported three of her sons who were killed while carrying out deadly attacks against Israelis.
The annual marathon race run through Gaza has been cancelled by the UN agency responsible for staging the event after Hamas said women would not be allowed to take part.

The leaders of the movement are only progressive by modern-day Zionism's standards
The leader of the Islamic militant group Hamas vowed to continue fighting Israel yesterday, as hundreds of thousands of flag-waving Gazans turned out to celebrate the organisation's 25th anniversary. Khaled Meshaal's visit to the Palestinian territory – a first since he went into exile in 1967 – underscores Hamas's rising clout and regional acceptance since its eight-day conflict with Israel last month.
