The American Legion Weekly [Volume 2, No. 31 (August 27, 1920)] ^AMERICAN I LEGION Weekly m Vol. 2, No. 31 AUGUST 27, 1920 10c. A COPY I I i REQUIEM The American Expeditionary Force will pass into history on August 31 when the only remaining unit of the army that fought in France, A. E. F. headquarters in Washington, will cease to exist. It sprang from town and crossroads when the call to battle came And grinned and slung its pack upon its back; ' It wrote red Chateau Thierry and the Argonne into fame i And swaggered, roaring, down adventure's track. It took a blasting, killing job and damned it and -went through, It faced six hells as part of every day; In lousy barns and trenches just before the whistle blew It sang of homes three thousand miles away. I It knew the sleepless box car nights, the sweat) the drawn fatigue, » It lined itself with willie and hard bread; Its hobnailed columns pounded France for league on rain-swept league, Its nearest dream of heaven was a bed. i Its days are done and ended now, its Taps are sounding clear, One last long note—"Farewell"—and it is gone. It lives in distant memory but that memory is dear, The soul of it alone still carries on.

    State of Ohio Enhanced Hazard Mitigation Plan Rev. January 2011 SECTION 4: LOCAL MITIGATION PROGRAM COORDINATION Section 4: Local Mitigation Program Coordination 314 State of Ohio Enhanced Hazard Mitigation Plan Rev. January 2011 4.1 LOCAL CAPABILITY ASSESSMENT OVERVIEW The preparation of Local Hazard Mitigation Plans (LHMPs) is a precondition for receipt of Hazard Mitigation Assistance grant project funds under the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 (DMA 2000) which also requires that states examine LHMPs as part of their SHMP process. FEMA has established mitigation planning requirements for local jurisdictions to meet, among other things, to demonstrate that proposed mitigation actions are based on a sound planning process that accounts for the inherent risk and capabilities of the individual communities. The Ohio EMA Mitigation Branch administers the LHMP Program for the state. The Mitigation Branch supports and assists local governments in the development and update of LHMPs. In 2002 and 2003, significant amounts of federal and state PDM funds were provided to develop LHMPs. For the time period spanning from the 2005 plan to the 2008 update, the main planning emphasis of the Mitigation Branch has been to get LHMPs reviewed, adopted, and FEMA approved. From 2008 to 2011, the emphasis shifted to tracking LHMP progress and effectiveness in a quantitative way, and integrating plan information more significantly into the state plan. The focus during 2011-2013 will be populating the State Hazard Analysis, Resource and Planning Portal (SHARPP, see Appendix J) with local plan information that will enhance mitigation planning efforts statewide. Currently, Ohio has a very good LHMP participation rate.

  • Outline of Ohio Project Paper: Economic Development
    Capturing the Emerging Market for Climate-Friendly Technologies: Opportunities for Ohio Executive Summary Increasing certainty that humans are changing the earth’s climate through emissions of greenhouse gases is creating a new market for climate-friendly products and services. As states and nations begin to address climate change by regulating greenhouse gas emissions and encouraging the use of clean energy, demand is growing for technologies such as wind power, biofuels, and cleaner coal power plants. Ohio’s manufacturing and agriculture sectors are already providing some of these solutions, and the state’s economy stands to benefit as a supplier of the technologies and strategies to tackle climate change. This paper briefly describes the factors driving the growing demand for climate-friendly technologies, some of the key existing companies, organizations, and resources in Ohio, and the potential for Ohio to become a leading supplier of climate solutions. These solutions include a new generation of lower-emitting coal technologies, components for wind turbines, and the feedstocks and facilities to produce biofuels. The paper concludes with recommendations for how Ohio can capitalize on these emerging opportunities. These recommendations include focusing and coordinating state funding of climate technology programs, promoting the development of climate-related industry clusters, and exploring export opportunities to states and countries with existing carbon constraints. Introduction The U.S. National Academy of Sciences, and the science academies of the other G8 nations and Brazil, China, and India have concluded that the global climate is warming in large part as the result of emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases (GHG) from human activities, mainly the burning of coal and oil.

E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT A nearly 800 specimen collection of stoneflies from Crane Hollow Nature Preserve (CNHP) in Hocking County, Ohio was examined. These samples revealed a rich assemblage of 41 species, 40% of the species known from the state and 57% of the species known to occur in the lower Scioto River drainage. Species represented by the greatest abundance coincided well with those that were represented by the greatest number of sampling events. Of seven similar studies CHNP had substantially higher richness than all but Powdermill Preserve of southwestern Pennsylvania with 51 species. Assemblages varied greatly such that the average Jaccard dissimilarity between locations was 76%. Additional species are predicted for the CHNP. The value of aggregating literature and specimen data for comparative analyses is discussed as a way to place results of current biomonitoring and ecological studies into historical context. Keywords: Plecoptera, Ohio, species assemblages, creeping baselines INTRODUCTION latter study also reported 102 species, though some The first statewide compilation of Ohio turnover in composition was reported.
