  • Outdoor Recreation & Raptors
    Outdoor Recreation & Raptors A Guide to Adaptive Management under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act Outdoor Recreation & Raptors Outdoor Recreation & Raptors, a Guide to Adaptive Management under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. Final Draft: August 7, 2019 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS For assistance with this publication special thanks to: Greg Orton - Southwest Oregon Climber’s Coalition, Dave Peterson - US Fish & Wildlife Service (retired) & Falconer; Baylor - Oregon Department of Fish & Wildlife Service; Erik Murdock - Access Fund Policy Director; Joe Sambataro - National Access Director & Northwest Regional Access Fund Director; Adam Nathan Ball - Portland Area Climber’s Coalition. 1 Outdoor Recreation & Raptors Outdoor Recreation & Raptors A Guide to Adaptive Management under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act This document may be used in the development of recreation policy and wildlife conservation measures on public lands. Specifically, this information relates to rock climbing and the protection of raptor species. Public land managers (federal, state, and local) may find that the information provided is useful as it explores the best-available science in the field of ornithology particularly in regards to Peregrine Falcons. Rock climbers, who recreate on public lands in close proximity to raptors federally protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act such as Peregrine Falcons, often experience access issues due to overly-restrictive public land closures. This guide provides land managers and recreation groups with scientific information necessary to alleviate conflicts that may arise between public access and needs set forth by agency conservation measures. Therefore, the goal of this document is to provide knowledge that may lead to the implementation of adaptive management practices that enable government officials to uphold the public trust as it relates to natural resources and recreation.

    Vol. 72, No. 31 Aug. 8, 2014 Marry me? Military helps battleBy Terri Moon Cronk Ebola and Cheryl Pellerin Department of Defense News, Defense Media Activity WASHINGTON — Defense Department personnel are on the ground in West Africa and in U.S. laboratories fi ghting to control the worst outbreak in the African history of the Ebola virus, which a senior Army infectious disease doctor called a “scourge of mankind.” Army Col. Dr. James Cummings, director of the Global Emerging Infections Surveillance and Response System, a division of the Armed Forces Health Surveillance Center, said the battle against the virus since the outbreak began in West Africa in March focuses on trying to stop disease transmission and on supportive care of those infected. At the Centers for Disease Prevention and Control in Atlanta, Director Dr. Tom Frieden has announced that the health agency has raised the travel advisory to Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone, where he said the Ebola outbreak is worsening, to Level 3 — a warning to avoid unnecessary travel to those countries. CDC already has disease detectives and other staff in those countries to track the epidemic, advise embassies, coordinate with the World Health Organization, strengthen ministries of health and improve case fi nding, contact tracing, infection control and health communication. Over the next 30 days, in what Frieden described as a surge, CDC will send another 50 disease-control specialists into the three countries to help establish emergency operations centers and develop structured ways to address the outbreak. “They will also help strengthen laboratory networks so testing for the disease can be done rapidly,” the director said.

  • My Iranian Sukkah
    My Iranian Sukkah FARIDEH DAYANIM GOLDIN Every year after Yom Kippur, my husband Norman and I try to bring together the pieces of our sukkah, our temporary home for a week, a reminder of our frailty as Jews. Every year we wonder where we had last stored the metal frame, the bamboo roof, and the decorations. Every year we wonder about the weather. Will we have to dodge the raindrops and the wind once again this year for a quick bracha before eating inside? Will our sukkah stand up? Will there be a hurricane? I insisted on building a sukkah the fi rst time we had a yard. My husband protested that it would never last in Portsmouth, Virginia, remembering the sukkahs of his childhood and youth in that town, when his father, Milton, struggled to balance the wobbly structure in the more protected area outside the living room. Every year, my father-in-law had to bring it down in the middle of the holiday, fear- ing that strong winds from one hurricane or another would topple the sukkah against the building, bringing down bricks, glass, and the roof shingles. In Iran of my youth, we had no such worries. Every year, a month before the holiday, my father ordered four young trees from the town’s wood supplier. He made sure they were cut to the exact height and had the two largest branches trimmed in a V, like two hands ready to catch a ball.
