Former Pirates Owner Kevin McClatchy Acknowledges He Is Gay
Published September 24, 2012
HONESTY REIGNS: McClatchy said prior to his group buying the Pirates, "We were in a very tenuous position. Two other groups were trying to buy the Pirates and I was convinced that if we weren't successful, they would have moved somewhere else." He added, "You understand you've got to keep the team there and (sexual orientation) is an issue that wouldn't have played well. That's just my opinion." In Sacramento, Marcos Breton noted McClatchy "hopes his story can give strength to young people pursuing the dream of a career in sports." McClatchy said, "This could be a systemic problem within sports. The best thing that could happen is that the leadership in all the leagues had a dialogue. … This needs to go down to the coaches, the college coaches, the high school coaches." Breton wrote, "As McClatchy spoke, I could hear the relief in his voice and the strength of someone who had stepped out of the shadows and wasn't afraid anymore" (SACRAMENTO BEE, 9/23). McClatchy: "I hope kids will know if you want to play sports, as long as you love the game, that's enough. You don't have to hide your life" (TRIBLIVE.com, 9/22).

Growth factor receptor cysteine-rich domain
|IPR009030; (Growth_fac_rcpt_) matches 34457 proteins
|Growth factor receptor cysteine-rich domain
|Found in
This growth factor receptor domain is a cysteine-rich region that is found in a variety of eukaryotic proteins that are involved in the mechanism of signal transduction by receptor tyrosine kinases. Proteins containing the growth factor receptor domain include the insulin-like growth factor-binding proteins (IGFBP) [], the type-1 insulin-like growth-factor receptor (IGF-1R) [], and members of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor family [], such as the receptor protein-tyrosine kinase Erbb-3 (ErbB3) []. The general structure of the growth factor receptor domain is a disulphide-bound fold containing a beta-hairpin with two adjacent disulphides.
IGFBPs control the distribution, function and activity of insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) IGF-I and IGF-II, which are key regulators of cell proliferation, differentiation and transformation. All IGFBPs share a common domain organisation, where the highest conservation is found in the N-terminal Cys-rich IGF-binding domain. The N-terminal domain contains 10-12 conserved cysteine residues.
IGF-1R is a member of the tyrosine-kinase receptor superfamily that is involved in both normal growth and development and malignant transformation. The Cys-rich domain is flanked by two L-domains, and together they contribute to hormone binding and ligand specificity, even though they do not bind ligand directly. The Cys-rich region is composed of eight disulphide-bonded modules, seven of which form a rod-shaped domain.
ErbB3 is a member of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) family of receptor tyrosine kinases. The extracellular region of ErbB3 is made up of two Cys-rich domains and two L-domains, arranged alternately []. The two L-domains and the first Cys-rich domain are structurally homologous to those found in IGF-1R. The two Cys-rich domains are extended repeats of seven small disulphide-containing modules. A beta-hairpin loop extends from the first Cys-rich domain to contact the C-terminal portion of the second Cys-rich domain, creating a large pore structure.

Sun plans to have a release of the JAXP Reference Implementation (RI) with version number 1.1.1 real soon. Crimson is a component of the JAXP RI, and so the version that will ship with JAXP RI version 1.1.1, will be tagged with version 1.1.1. The plan is to do that later today. BTW, I was trying to be careful in distiguishing the JAXP spec version from the RI version. Here, the spec version has not changed, it is still 1.1, but the RI version has changed. The RI contains 3 implementation components: + javax.xml.* classes => implementation version 1.1.1 + Xalan-j => implementation version 2.1 + crimson => implementation version 1.1.1 xalan-j has already been tagged. The other 2 repositories still need to be tagged. -Edwin --------------------------------------------------------------------- In case of troubles, e-mail: email@example.com To unsubscribe, e-mail: email@example.com For additional commands, e-mail: email@example.com

Looking for a Used F-150 in your area?
CarGurus has 200,276 nationwide F-150 listings starting at $1,500.
1995 Ford F-150 Overview
The 1995 Ford F-150 replaced the XLT Lariat trimline with an updated Eddie Bauer model that drew on the "rugged luxury" reputation of the Seattle retailer. The '95 Ford F-150 was also available in XL and XLT trims, with extended-cab, supercab, and standard cab 2-door and 4-door setups. Short-bed, long-bed, and stepside variations gave buyers a wealth of choices.
There was plenty to choose from under the hood, as well; engine offerings for the '95 Ford F-150 ranged from a 4.9-liter straight six to a 7.3-liter Power-Stroke turbo-diesel V8 with an astonishing output of 210 horsepower.
Owners swear by the rugged durability of these workhorse trucks. You'll find the extended-bed models working hard on ranches and farms, and plenty of the short-bed versions going off-road for four-wheel fun. Safety features like a driver's side airbag and automatic locking hubs drew buyers looking for a solid pickup with style.
However, like most of its counterparts from the go-go '90s, the 1995 Ford F-150 was designed without too much emphasis on fuel efficiency. Without aftermarket upgrades, which abound, you'll be looking at 17 mpg highway/15 mpg city.

Tennessee Titans news, rumors and injuries
Titans | Marcus Mariota making quick reads
Sat, 30 Jul 2016 20:23:45 -0700
Tennessee Titans QB Marcus Mariota was praised for his ability to move quickly through his progressions during practice Saturday, July 30.
Fantasy Tip: Mariota has a ton of upside entering his second season. He might not reach QB1 status just yet, but draft him as a high-end fantasy backup.

Titans | Andre Johnson delivers in first practice
Sat, 30 Jul 2016 18:35:43 -0700
Tennessee Titans WR Andre Johnson made several nice catches during his first practice Saturday, July 30, and head coach Mike Mularkey said Johnson will have a chance to compete for a starting spot.
Fantasy Tip: Johnson is still a recognizable name, but his numbers have declined sharply the last couple of years. Draft him in the later rounds and hope he has something left in the tank.

Titans | Andre Johnson lands two years
Fri, 29 Jul 2016 10:16:59 -0700
Updating an earlier report, Tennessee Titans WR Andre Johnson signed a two-year deal Friday, July 29. Financial terms weren't disclosed. The Indianapolis Colts owed Johnson $2.5 million this season, but with an offset, the Titans will absorb some of that.
Fantasy Tip: Johnson could be an asset in PPR leagues, but his decline was very evident last year. He's a very meager WR5 in fantasy.

Titans | Andre Johnson signing with Titans
Fri, 29 Jul 2016 09:49:15 -0700
Free-agent WR Andre Johnson (Colts) is signing with the Tennessee Titans Friday, July 29. Terms weren't disclosed.
Fantasy Tip: Johnson could still make an impact in PPR leagues, but he's a very meager option as a WR5.

Titans | William Campbell signs with Titans
Tue, 26 Jul 2016 15:18:44 -0700
Free-agent OL William Campbell (Packers) signed with the Tennessee Titans Tuesday, July 26.

Titans | Andre Johnson at Titans' facility
Tue, 26 Jul 2016 14:45:36 -0700
Free-agent WR Andre Johnson (Colts) was spotted at the Tennessee Titans' team facility Tuesday, July 26. He has not officially signed, however.
Fantasy Tip: This would make for an interesting move by the Titans if it does come to fruition. Johnson would provide a veteran presence, but he would also steal targets from Dorial Green-Beckham, Rishard Matthews, Kendall Wright and Delanie Walker, among others. A crowded receiving corps could be even more crowded, and Johnson should not be viewed as more than a WR4 to WR5 if he does join Tennessee, especially coming off a disappointing stint with the Indianapolis Colts.

Titans | Tajae Sharpe has crisp route-running
Thu, 21 Jul 2016 15:35:48 -0700
Tennessee Titans rookie WR Tajae Sharpe has already proven himself as one of the best route-runners on the Titans in his first offseason in the NFL. Sharpe also caught the ball consistently.
Fantasy Tip: Sharpe's role is still somewhat hazy despite his impressive offseason. He'll be competing for targets with Dorial Green-Beckham, Rishard Matthews, Kendall Wright and Delanie Walker. That being said, it's safer to take him in later rounds of standard drafts.

Titans | Harry Douglas could be cut
Thu, 21 Jul 2016 15:25:23 -0700
Tennessee Titans WR Harry Douglas is not a lock to make the 53-man roster, according to Jim Wyatt of titansonline.com. WRs Justin Hunter and Tre McBride will also be battling for a spot.
Fantasy Tip: Douglas was a better fantasy option in his days with the Atlanta Falcons. The fact that he may not make the team is telling as to his fantasy value. He can probably be avoided even if he does make the final roster, since he'll be Tennessee's WR5 at best.

Titans | Dorial Green-Beckham not in best shape
Thu, 21 Jul 2016 15:16:34 -0700
Tennessee Titans WR Dorial Green-Beckham needs to be in better shape when training camp commences, even after losing some weight last season.
Fantasy Tip: DGB has high expectations in his second season in the NFL. If he meets them, he could finish as the Titans' top wide receiver in WR3 territory. Delanie Walker, Rishard Matthews and Kendall Wright could hinder his full potential, though.

Titans | Marcus Mariota needs to hold onto ball
Wed, 20 Jul 2016 14:12:04 -0700
Tennessee Titans QB Marcus Mariota fumbled the ball 10 times in 2015, and the team lost six of those fumbles. Mariota said his ball security was something he wanted to work on this offseason.
Fantasy Tip: Mariota should play better in his second season as the Titans quarterback, but he will need to keep the ball when he is running. Mariota will have several weapons to work with in the passing game and likely will be a low-end No. 1 or a No. 2 quarterback in most fantasy leagues.

Titans | DeMarco Murray likely to run often
Tue, 19 Jul 2016 06:58:17 -0700
Tennessee Titans RB DeMarco Murray is expected to be the team's workhorse in 2016.
Fantasy Tip: He'll have talent behind him with Derrick Henry, Antonio Andrews and Bishop Sankey. However, everything that we're hearing is that Murray will be the downfield runner utilized like he was in his breakout 2014 season. That season's heavy usage and his shaky history before that leave questions that peg him into the high-end RB2 mix. Henry could be used in short-yardage situations, and he's an RB5 flyer. The other two are fringe RB5 options.

Titans | Two TEs may compete for one spot
Sun, 17 Jul 2016 14:57:05 -0700
Tennessee Titans TE Phillip Supernaw and Jerome Cunningham likely will compete for one roster spot during training camp.

Titans | Justin Hunter's roster spot safe?
Thu, 14 Jul 2016 21:40:45 -0700
Tennessee Titans WR Justin Hunter will likely make the 53-man roster because of his athleticism and potential, according to beat writer Terry McCormick.
Fantasy Tip: Hunter's physical gifts have yet to translate into consistent production on the field. Assuming he makes the roster, he still needs to show he can provide useful numbers before he is worth owning.
Comment () | Share: | Source: TitansInsider.com - Terry McCormick
Titans | Kendall Wright needs to improve
Thu, 14 Jul 2016 21:35:24 -0700
Tennessee Titans WR Kendall Wright has been told he needs to improve his route running and is expected to be used as a slot receiver.
Fantasy Tip: At best, Wright is a late-round flier in PPR formats, but it looks like his value is headed in the wrong direction.

List of birds of Ontario
This list of birds of Ontario includes all the bird species recorded in the Canadian province of Ontario as determined by the Ontario Bird Records Committee (OBRC). There are, as of 2008, 478 species on this list, 291 of which are known to breed in the province.[1] Ontario has a considerable variety of bird species. One of the factors in this diversity is the size and range of environments in Ontario. Another is the Great Lakes, many birds use the shores as a stopping point during migration.[2]
Several common birds in Ontario, such as the house sparrow, the rock dove, the European starling and the mute swan are introduced species, meaning that they are not native to this continent but were brought here by humans from Europe or elsewhere.[3]
This list is presented in taxonomic order and follows The Check-list of North American Birds, published by the American Ornithologists' Union.[3] The table of contents is grouped into passerines (the largest order of birds) and non-passerines. The family accounts at the beginning of each heading reflect this taxonomy, as do the species counts found in each family account.

The taxonomic treatment (designation and sequence of orders, families and species) and nomenclature (common and scientific names) used in the accompanying bird lists adhere to the conventions of the AOU's (1998) Check-list of North American Birds, the recognized scientific authority on the taxonomy and nomenclature of North America birds. The AOU's Committee on Classification and Nomenclature, the body responsible for maintaining and updating the Check-list, "strongly and unanimously continues to endorse the biological species concept (BSC), in which species are considered to be genetically cohesive groups of populations that are reproductively isolated from other such groups" (AOU 1998). See Sibley-Ahlquist taxonomy for an alternative phylogenetic arrangement based on DNA-DNA hybridization.
Unless otherwise noted, all species listed below are considered to occur regularly in North America as permanent residents, summer or winter residents or visitors, or migrants. The following codes are used to designate some species:
- (A) Accidental - occurrence based on one or two (rarely more) records and unlikely to occur regularly[4]
- (I) Introduced - established solely as result of direct or indirect human intervention; synonymous with non-native and non-indigenous
- (E) Extinct – a recent species that no longer exists
- (Ex) Extirpated – a species that no longer occurs in Ontario, but populations still exist elsewhere

How to Feed the World as the Planet Warms
24 percent, including deforestation, making agriculture the second-largest emitter after heat and electricity.Calculating farming's contribution to greenhouse gas emissions is difficult, but experts agree that feeding the world's people has tremendous climate and environmental impacts. Estimates of global emissions from farms range widely. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency puts them at
Agriculture contributes to global warming in a number of ways. Methane and nitrous oxide, which are more potent than CO2 but remain in the atmosphere for shorter times, make up about 65 percent of agricultural emissions. Methane comes mainly from cattle and nitrous oxide from fertilizers and wastes.
According to the World Resources Institute, "Smaller sources include manure management, rice cultivation, field burning of crop residues and fuel use on farms." Net emissions are also created when forests and wetlands are cleared for farming, as these "carbon sinks" usually absorb and store more carbon than the farms that replace them. Transporting and processing agricultural products also contribute to global warming.
We need to eat. So what's the answer? That obesity is epidemic in parts of the world while people starve elsewhere and that an estimated one-third of food gets wasted, shows improving distribution and reducing waste are good places to start—but won't be enough to significantly curtail agriculture's contribution to climate change.
Reducing meat and animal-product consumption and production—especially beef—would cut emissions, but wouldn't get us all the way.
What Does It Mean to "Gig" American Workers?
Pouty, whiney, spoiled-bratism is not nice coming from a four-year-old — but it's grotesque when it comes from billion-dollar corporate elites like Uber and Lyft.
The two internet-based ride-hiring brats call themselves "ridesharing" companies, but that's a deceit, for they don't share anything — their business model relies on folks needing a ride to hire a driver through the corporations' apps. With the bulk of the fare going to out-of-town corporate hedge funders.
The tow outfits have swaggered into cities all across our country, insisting that they're innovative, tech-driven geniuses. As such, they consider themselves above the fusty old laws that other transportation companies, like taxis, follow. So Uber and Lyft have made it a corporate policy to throw hissy fits when cities — from Los Angeles to Atlanta, Houston to Portland — have dared even to propose that they obey rules to protect customers and drivers.
The latest tantrum from the California giants happened in Austin, when the city council there adopted a few modest, perfectly-reasonable rules, despite the screams of PR flacks from both outfits. The petulant duo then used fibs and high-pressure tactics to get enough signatures on petitions to force a special election to overturn the council's action. Naturally, being brats, they gave the city an ultimatum — "Vote our way or we will leave town" — and assumed that Austin's tech-savvy voters would flock to do whatever the popular ride-sharing service wanted.
But they picked the wrong city. First, they ran a campaign of blatant lies, as though Austinites wouldn't question them. Then, they shoved a sickening level of corporate cash into their campaign, apparently thinking that the sheer tonnage of ads would win the day for them. However, the slicks from California turned out to be uber-goobers. Despite spending $9 million (more than the combined spending of all city council candidates in the past decade), they went down, 56-to-44 percent.
Message to ExxonMobil: The First Amendment Does Not Give You a Right to Commit Fraud
Reposted with Permission of the Union of Concerned Scientists
letter signed by thirteen members of the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology. In my thirty years as an attorney, public official, and now UCS President, I have never seen anything quite like it. The letter states that the House Science Committee is "conducting oversight of a coordinated attempt to deprive companies, non-profit organizations and scientists of their First Amendment rights." This sounds like an oversight effort UCS could support—but for what follows.On Wednesday, I received a
The representatives are requesting "all documents and communications" between UCS and state attorneys general and between UCS and other NGOs related to our work to hold oil and gas companies accountable for deception. Apparently, these elected representatives believe that UCS and others have infringed on the free speech rights of fossil fuel companies such as ExxonMobil.
How? By sharing information with these attorneys general about whether ExxonMobil and others misled the public about the dangers of climate change, and by explaining how climate change caused by burning fossil fuels is harming people and places in their states.
You know what else this tells me? The campaign to hold companies accountable is working.
How absurd is this request?
Let's start with the premise of the letter—that the free speech rights of companies such as ExxonMobil are violated by an investigation. This is nonsense. No company has a First Amendment right to knowingly provide misinformation about the harm associated with its product (in this case the emissions of heat trapping gases from the combustion of fossil fuels). And attorneys general have every right to investigate whether the companies' actions amounted to an actionable fraud.
In fact, the letter itself compromises the First Amendment rights of the Union of Concerned Scientists and the other recipients of this letter.
Will Vegans Save the World?
vegans save the world? Reading comments under climate change articles or watching the film Cowspiracy make it seem they're the only ones who can. Cowspiracy boldly claims veganism is "the only way to sustainably and ethically live on this planet." But, as with most issues, it's complicated.Will
It's true, though, that the environment and climate would benefit substantially if more people gave up or at least cut down on meat and animal products, especially in over-consuming Western societies. Animal agriculture produces huge amounts of greenhouse gas emissions, consumes massive volumes of water and causes a lot of pollution.
But getting a handle on the extent of environmental harm, as well as the differences between various agricultural methods and types of livestock and balancing that with possible benefits of animal consumption and agriculture isn't simple.
Estimates of how much animal agriculture adds to greenhouse gases range widely, from about 14 to more than 50 percent of total global emissions. Agriculture exacerbates climate change in a number of ways. Clearing carbon sinks such as forests to grow or raise food can result in net greenhouse gas increases. Farming, especially on an industrial scale, also requires fossil fuel–burning machinery, as does processing and transporting agricultural products.
Determining the overall contribution is complicated by the fact that livestock agriculture accounts for about 9 percent of human-caused CO2 emissions but far greater amounts of other greenhouse gases, which are worse in many ways but less dangerous in others.
According to the UN Food and Agriculture Organization, livestock farming produces 65 percent of human-related nitrous oxide, which has 296 times the global warming potential as CO2. It also contributes "37 percent of all human-induced methane (23 times as warming as CO2), which is largely produced by the digestive system of ruminants and 64 percent of ammonia, which contributes significantly to acid rain." But methane stays in the atmosphere for about 12 years and nitrous oxide for about 114, while CO2 remains for thousands of years.
Paris Goes Car-Free First Sunday of Every Month
car-free day, an attempt to reduce pollution in the French city. The initiative began in September 2015 as the brainchild of Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo.Parisians can walk, skate or cycle down the iconic Champs Elysees one day a month without worrying about traffic. The first Sunday of every month is a
The Paris Breathes campaign, responsible for implementing the program, blocks off 13 sections of the city at various times throughout the day. Sections are closed for various time periods ranging from four to 10 hours, according to the campaign's website. There are an additional four locations that go car-free for the summer months only. The first car-free day—Sept. 27, 2015—led to a 40 percent drop in nitrogen dioxide in Paris, The Guardian reported.
Paris residents seem to love the car-free days. "I think especially when the weather is like that, beautiful sunshine, we feel like it's the holidays for us. We can walk easily, no pollution, no noise. We are very happy," one of the participants said in the below NowThis video.
Paris leads the pack in monthly car-free days, but several large metro cities participate in international car-free day on Sept. 22 every year, including Washington, DC, Seattle and Long Island, New York.
Historic Victory: Four Teenagers Win in Massachusetts Climate Change Lawsuit
found in favor of four youth plaintiffs, the Conservation Law Foundation and Mass Energy Consumers Alliance Tuesday in the critical climate change case, Kain et al. v. Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (DEP).The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court
The court found that the DEP was not complying with its legal obligation to reduce the state's greenhouse gas emissions and ordered the agency to "promulgate regulations that address multiple sources or categories of sources of greenhouse gas emissions, impose a limit on emissions that may be released … and set limits that decline on an annual basis."
"This is an historic victory for young generations advocating for changes to be made by government. The global climate change crisis is a threat to the well being of humanity, and to my generation, that has been ignored for too long," youth plaintiff Shamus Miller, age 17, said.
"Today, the Massachusetts Supreme Court has recognized the scope and urgency of that threat and acknowledges the need for immediate action to help slow the progression of climate change. There is much more to be done both nationally and internationally but this victory is a step in the right direction and I hope that future efforts have similar success."
In 2012, hundreds of youth petitioned the DEP asking the agency to comply with the Global Warming Solutions Act (GWSA) and adopt rules reducing the state's greenhouse gas emissions, but that petition was denied. As a result of DEP's reluctance to comply with the GWSA, youth filed this case arguing that the DEP failed to promulgate the regulations required by Section 3(d) of the GWSA establishing declining annual levels of greenhouse gas emissions.
Nebraska Farmers Sue Monsanto Alleging Roundup Gave Them Cancer
Monsanto Co. alleging that the agribusiness giant's cancer-linked product, Roundup, gave them non-Hodgkin lymphoma after many years of exposure.Four Nebraskan agricultural workers have filed a lawsuit against
The plaintiffs have also accused Monsanto of purposely misleading consumers about the safety of its blockbuster product, which contains glyphosate as its controversial main ingredient.
The plaintiffs allege that Monsanto mislabeled the product in defiance of the "body of recognized scientific evidence linking the disease to exposure to Roundup."
Glyphosate, the most widely used herbicide in the world was infamously classified as "probably carcinogenic to humans" by the World Health Organization's (WHO) International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) in March 2015.
"Case-control studies of occupational exposure in the USA, Canada, and Sweden reported increased risks for non-Hodgkin lymphoma that persisted after adjustment for other pesticides," the IARC said about the herbicide, adding that there is also "convincing evidence" that it can cause cancer in laboratory animals.
The plaintiffs in the case are farmers Larry Domina and Robert Dickey both of Cedar County, York County farmer Royce Janzen and Dodge County agronomist Frank Pollard, the Lincoln Journal Star reported. They are represented by Omaha-based Domina Law Group and New York-based Weitz & Luxembourg.
New Fracking Study Finds Children at Greater Risk of Respiratory Health Problems
fracking might allow for cheaper prices to heat your home, but a growing number of scientists are becoming concerned about its unacceptable health implications.Unconventional oil and gas (UOG) operations such as
In the first comprehensive literature review to date on the respiratory health risks associated with UOG, experts from the Center for Environmental Health, the Institute for Health and the Environment, Physicians for Social Responsibility and the Alliance of Nurses for Healthy Environments have found that these operations are particularly harmful to infants and young children.
The study, Hazards of UOG Emissions on Children's and Infants' Respiratory Health, was published today in the journal Reviews on Environmental Health.
The the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) found that there are nearly 700 chemicals used in the fracking process. Fracking fluids can contain a toxic slew of hazardous chemicals that can affect human health and the environment, but oil and gas companies are not required to disclose exactly what they are.
According to the study, at least five chemicals associated with unconventional oil and gas operations and fracking—tropospheric ozone, particulate matter, silica dust, benzene and formaldehyde—are linked to respiratory health issues on infants and children, including asthma, reduced lung and pulmonary function, increased susceptibility to infection, chest discomfort, difficulty breathing, lung inflammation and other adverse outcomes.
Results of Glyphosate Pee Test Are in "and It's Not Good News"
volunteered to take a urine test to see if glyphosate—the cancer-linked weedkiller—is in their system. Forty-eight MEPs from 13 different European Union countries participated in the test, and now the results are in.Last month, Members of the European Parliament (MEPs)
According to ELISA test results from the accredited Biocheck Laboratory in Germany: "All participants excreted glyphosate by urine."
The experiment was spearheaded by the Green Party in the European Parliament, which wants a ban on the controversial herbicide in the European Union.
The group noted in a press release of their so-called "#MEPee" test:
On average, the MEPs had 1.7 micrograms/liter of glyphosate in their urine, 17 times higher than the European drinking water norm (0.1 microgram/litre). This means that everyone we tested was way above the limit for residues of pesticides in drinking water.
Leonardo DiCaprio Stands With Great Sioux Nation to Stop Dakota Access Pipeline
pipeline (DAPL) continues to gain steam with Leonardo DiCaprio and actors from the upcoming Justice League film joining the cause.The campaign to oppose the construction of the Dakota Access
Dakota Access—a subsidiary of Texas-based Energy Transfer Partners LP—has proposed a $3.7 billion, 1,168-mile pipeline that will transfer up to 570,00 barrels of crude oil per day from the North Dakota Bakken region through South Dakota and Iowa into Illinois.
The DAPL, also referred to as the Bakken pipeline, would cross the Missouri River less than a mile away from the Standing Rock Reservation that stands in North and South Dakota. The Missouri River, one of the largest water resources in the U.S., provides drinking water for millions of people.
The people of Standing Rock, often called Sioux, warn that a potential oil spill into the river would threaten the water, land and health of their reservation.
In DiCaprio's tweet, the Oscar-winning actor and clean energy advocate said he was "standing with the Great Sioux Nation to protect their water and lands," and linked to a Change.org petition that urges the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to stop the construction of the Dakota Access Pipeline.
