China's Iron Rice Bowl Transforms Into Government Checks Grain And
THIS REPORT CONTAINS ASSESSMENTS OF COMMODITY AND TRADE ISSUES MADE BY USDA STAFF AND NOT NECESSARILY STATEMENTS OF OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICY Required Report - public distribution Date: 4/4/2018 GAIN Report Number: CH 18015 China - Peoples Republic of Grain and Feed Annual China’s Iron Rice Bowl Transforms Into Government Checks Approved By: Michael Ward Prepared By: Gene Kim Report Highlights: China’s agricultural policy-makers manage the dual mandate of ensuring national food security while pursuing poverty alleviation targets, which aim to raise rural incomes through domestic support programs and centrally planned marketing activities. Recent changes to the temporary reserve programs signal that minimum price supports and strategic stockpiles for wheat and rice are expected to continue in the near-term. State officials reason that full silos at home will translate into stable prices abroad. MY2018/19 rough rice production is forecast at 204.3 million tons, down more than 2 percent from MY2017/18, on a sharp decline in harvested area. MY2018/19 corn production is forecast at 223.0 million tons, up 3 percent from MY2017/18 on expanded area. MY2018/19 wheat production is forecast at 129.0 million tons, down slightly from MY2017/18 on a policy-driven decline in harvested area. 1 Executive Summary Spring weather has led to early emergence for winter crops across China. After historically low temperatures and strong winter storms, spring temperatures have jumped to unseasonably high levels and soaking rains have broken a dry spell across North East China. In South China, planting of early- season summer crops is underway. -

Wallkill River National Wildlife Refuge Comprehensive Conservation Plan February 2009 This Blue Goose, Designed by J.N
U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service Wallkill River National Wildlife Refuge Comprehensive Conservation Plan February 2009 This blue goose, designed by J.N. “Ding” Darling, has become the symbol of the National Wildlife Refuge System. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is the principal federal agency responsible for conserving, protecting, and enhancing fi sh, wildlife, plants, and their habitats for the continuing benefi t of the American people. The Service manages the 97-million acre National Wildlife Refuge System comprised of more than 548 national wildlife refuges and thousands of waterfowl production areas. It also operates 69 national fi sh hatcheries and 81 ecological services fi eld stations. The agency enforces federal wildlife laws, manages migratory bird populations, restores nationally signifi cant fi sheries, conserves and restores wildlife habitat such as wetlands, administers the Endangered Species Act, and helps foreign governments with their conservation efforts. It also oversees the Federal Assistance Program which distributes hundreds of millions of dollars in excise taxes on fi shing and hunting equipment to state wildlife agencies. Comprehensive Conservation Plans provide long term guidance for management decisions and set forth goals, objectives, and strategies needed to accomplish refuge purposes and identify the Service’s best estimate of future needs. These plans detail program planning levels that are sometimes substantially above current budget allocations and, as such, are primarily for Service strategic planning and program prioritization purposes. The plans do not constitute a commitment for staffi ng increases, operational and maintenance increases, or funding for future land acquisition.

Music, Plants, and Medicine: Lamista Shamanism in the Age of Internationalization
MUSIC, PLANTS, AND MEDICINE: LAMISTA SHAMANISM IN THE AGE OF INTERNATIONALIZATION By CHRISTINA MARIA CALLICOTT A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2020 © 2020 Christina Maria Callicott In honor of don Leovijildo Ríos Torrejón, who prayed hard over me for three nights and doused me with cigarette smoke, scented waters, and cologne. In so doing, his faith overcame my skepticism and enabled me to salvage my year of fieldwork that, up to that point, had gone terribly awry. In 2019, don Leo vanished into the ethers, never to be seen again. This work is also dedicated to the wonderful women, both Kichwa and mestiza, who took such good care of me during my time in Peru: Maya Arce, Chabu Mendoza, Mama Rosario Tuanama Amasifuen, and my dear friend Neci. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This dissertation would not have been possible without the kindness and generosity of the Kichwa people of San Martín. I am especially indebted to the people of Yaku Shutuna Rumi, who welcomed me into their homes and lives with great love and affection, and who gave me the run of their community during my stay in El Dorado. I am also grateful to the people of Wayku, who entertained my unannounced visits and inscrutable questioning, as well as the people of the many other communities who so graciously received me and my colleagues for our brief visits. I have received support and encouragement from a great many people during the eight years that it has taken to complete this project. -

C01 02/17/2018 10:16:26 Page 11 CHAPTER Hit Your Mark Utilizing Intention to Maximize Message Impact Every objective must carry in itself the germs of action. —CONSTANTIN STANISLAVSKI f you are a leader in the corporate arena, your role will not only require you to influence the thoughts and feelings of stakeholders I inside and outside of your organization, but also to motivate their actions through your vision and ideas. This is no small feat, and it will likely happen on a daily basis, sometimes with high stakes in the balance. Great leadership is practiced one conversation at a time, and someone communicating a message must understand how they want their audience to react before being able to deliver it with impact. Actors are masters of verbal and nonverbal communication; experts at driving theirCOPYRIGHTED messages home with intent. MATERIAL In this chapter, we will detail our three-step process for influential communication as well as the concepts of intention and objective (the effective communicator’s secret weapon), to allow you to engage others by influencing emotions and motivating action.

Geology Club Field Trip New Jersey Zinc Mine and Vicinity
Geology Club Field Trip New Jersey Zinc Mine and Vicinity Ogdensburg, NJ 3-4 May 2008 Bedrock map of the area surrounding the New Jersey Zinc Mine in Ogdensburg, New Jersey. The mines are found in the Franklin Marble (tan unit in center). See figure 1 for description of units. (From Spencer et al., 1908.) Guidebook Notes © 2008 Charles Merguerian, Hofstra University, NY 11549 INTRODUCTION Ore petrology is a unique application of the techniques we have developed in our experiences this semester in Geology 133. The main difference is that ore petrology utilizes reflected, rather than transmitted light to identify opaque mineral phases. Yet, the study of ore phases, textures, and the geochemical secrets of ore formation offer important insights into former tectonic regimes for card-carrying fans of orogenic studies. On today’s trip we visit one of northwestern New Jersey's unique mineral deposits in the Franklin-Sterling Hill area, Sussex County. In the words of Robert W. Jones (1982, p. 194): "The next time you are stuck in turnpike traffic or have had it with the moribund world, head for the rolling hills of northwest New Jersey and revel in the history and beauty of America's unique zinc mines and minerals." Jones neglects to add how you get unstuck from the traffic to get to northwestern New Jersey from Long Island, but, back to Jones (1982, p. 190): "Franklin and Ogdensburg (Sterling Hill mine) are neighboring towns nestled in the rolling hills of northwest New Jersey. Each is situated next to a zinc-iron-manganese ore deposit the likes of which exist nowhere else in the world. -
