  • List of Olympians and Other Athletes Who Signed The
    Citizens’ Petition for a National Rule to Protect National Forest Roadless Areas Michael Johanns, Secretary US Department of Agriculture 1400 Independence Ave., SW Washington, DC 20250 Dear Secretary Johanns: I strongly oppose the Bush administration’s recent decision to revoke the Roadless Area Conservation Rule and replace it with a burdensome and uncertain state petition process. Protecting the 58.5 million acres of National Forest Roadless Areas is a core responsibility of the U.S. Forest Service to all Americans. It should not be contingent on action by state governors. The Roadless Area Conservation Rule was the product of a massive public involvement process that included more than 600 public meetings and generated more than 1.6 million comments from the American people. More than 95 percent of those comments supported a strong nationwide policy protecting all National Forest Roadless Areas. More Americans supported the Roadless Area Conservation Rule of 2001 than any other federal rule in U.S. history. And more Americans opposed the Bush administration’s rescission of that rule than any other rule revision in history. The American people have loudly, clearly, and in great number expressed their desire that you protect the clean water, undisturbed wildlife habitat, and backcountry recreational opportunities our remaining national forest roadless areas provide. And they have made clear that they do not want more of their taxpayer dollars to go toward roadbuilding in wild areas when there is already almost $10 billion in existing maintenance needed on forest service roads. The Forest Service’s rationale for such a rule is as valid today as it was in 2001.

  • Google Guru Keynote Speaker at Nevada Tourism Conference
    Google guru keynote speaker at Nevada tourism conference Google strategist Ryan Denny will reveal 10 quick ways to succeed in online advertising when he addresses the Nevada Commission on Tourism’s 20th annual Rural Roundup conference in Winnemucca March 24-26. Denny, a travel industry advertising expert for the online search engine giant Google, is keynote speaker March 25 at the three-day conference in the Winnemucca Convention Center. He will provide quick and easy ideas for creating and measuring successful, big-impact online advertising. “Online advertising strategies are a hot topic for the tourism industry, and rural Nevada communities that don’t have the luxury of an online marketing department will benefit from sessions on how best to utilize 21st century technology to achieve their goals,†said Brian Krolicki, Nevada lieutenant governor and NCOT chair, in a press release. Delegates will learn how to: evaluate their websites, fill out a winning application for an NCOT rural grant, build itineraries that promote local attractions, appeal to international visitors, make the most of social media, search engines and Web surfing, maximize a return on marketing dollars, develop a visitor profile and follow up leads for new business. Concluding a daylong series of workshops, Roger Brooks, an internationally recognized expert on how communities can attract more visitors, will describe what works best for “The New Age of Rural Tourism.†Brooks, of Destination Development International, has analyzed and guided more than 800 communities, including many in rural Nevada. NCOT will present the annual VolunTourism Awards for outstanding achievement in each of the six tourism “territories†at the annual Rural Roundup awards dinner March 25.
