Northeastern Coyote/Coywolf Taxonomy and Admixture: a Meta-Analysis
Way and Lynn Northeastern coyote taxonomy Copyright © 2016 by the IUCN/SSC Canid Specialist Group. ISSN 1478-2677 Synthesis Northeastern coyote/coywolf taxonomy and admixture: A meta-analysis Jonathan G. Way1* and William S. Lynn2 1 Eastern Coyote Research, 89 Ebenezer Road, Osterville, MA 02655, USA. Email [email protected] 2 Marsh Institute, Clark University, Worcester, MA 01610, USA. Email [email protected] * Correspondence author Keywords: Canis latrans, Canis lycaon, Canis lupus, Canis oriens, cladogamy, coyote, coywolf, eastern coyote, eastern wolf, hybridisation, meta-analysis, northeastern coyote, wolf. Abstract A flurry of recent papers have attempted to taxonomically characterise eastern canids, mainly grey wolves Canis lupus, eastern wolves Canis lycaon or Canis lupus lycaon and northeastern coyotes or coywolves Canis latrans, Canis latrans var. or Canis latrans x C. lycaon, in northeastern North America. In this paper, we performed a meta-analysis on northeastern coyote taxonomy by comparing results across studies to synthesise what is known about genetic admixture and taxonomy of this animal. Hybridisation or cladogamy (the crossing between any given clades) be- tween coyotes, wolves and domestic dogs created the northeastern coyote, but the animal now has little genetic in- put from its parental species across the majority of its northeastern North American (e.g. the New England states) range except in areas where they overlap, such as southeastern Canada, Ohio and Pennsylvania, and the mid- Atlantic area. The northeastern coyote has roughly 60% genetic influence from coyote, 30% wolf and 10% domestic dog Canis lupus familiaris or Canis familiaris. There is still disagreement about the amount of eastern wolf versus grey wolf in its genome, and additional SNP genotyping needs to sample known eastern wolves from Algonquin Pro- vincial Park, Ontario to verify this. -

A Sex Worker Rights and Anti-Trafficking Initiative
ANTI-TRAFFICKING REVIEW 12 (2019): 140-154 The ‘Prioritizing Safety for Sex Workers Policy’: A sex worker rights and anti-trafficking initiative Alexandra Lutnick Abstract This article presents a case study of how sex worker and anti-trafficking organisations and activists in San Francisco, California, worked together to develop and pass the ‘Prioritizing Safety for Sex Workers Policy’. This policy, as enacted by the San Francisco District Attorney’s Office and the San Francisco Police Department, creates a legal environment where people can come forward and report to law enforcement when they are a victim of or witness to an array of violent crimes while engaged in sex work, and not be arrested or prosecuted for their involvement in that criminalised behaviour or for any misdemeanour drug offences. The article details how the groups came together and the challenges they faced while developing the policy. The work was fuelled by the recognition that no one wants people in the sex industry to experience violence. That is true whether selling sex is their choice, influenced by their life circumstances, or something they are being forced or coerced to do. The Prioritizing Safety for Sex Workers Policy is a unique example of the way in which sex workers, people who have experienced trafficking, service providers, activists, women’s rights policymakers, the police department, and the District Attorney’s office came together around a common goal. Keywords: sex work, human trafficking, policy, coalitions, violence, crime victim Suggested citation: A Lutnick, ‘The “Prioritizing Safety for Sex Workers Policy”: A sex worker rights and anti-trafficking initiative’, Anti-Trafficking Review, issue 12, 2019, pp. -

Calamity Jane: What to Expect • Calamity Jane Is a Stage Musical
Calamity Jane: What to Expect Calamity Jane is a stage musical adapted by Ronald Hanmer and Phil Park from the stage play by Charles K. Freeman after the Warner Bros. film written by James O’Hanlon. The lyrics are by Paul Francis Webster and the music by Sammy Fain. This production of Calamity Jane is presented in association with One Eyed Man Productions and opened at Belvoir on Saturday 25 August, 2018. The production is directed by Richard Carroll with musical direction by Nigel Ubrihien. The production runs for approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes including a 20 minute interval. The musical tells the story of Calamity Jane, a sharp shooter from the American Midwest. The character is based on the real life figure Martha Jane Cannary who lived in the second half of the 19th century. The action of the musical takes place in the Golden Garter Saloon in Deadwood, South Dakota; Chicago and Calamity Jane’s log cabin in the woods outside Deadwood. Calamity Jane, along with Wild Bill Hickock, comes to the rescue of the proprietor of the local saloon, Henry Miller, when the actress Frances Fryer (who Miller has been promoting as a headline act at the saloon) turns out to be Francis Fryer. To quell the patrons’ anger, Calamity Jane undertakes to travel to Chicago and bring back the actress Adelaide Adams to perform at the saloon. There are seven actors in Calamity Jane who play numerous characters. Some of the actors play multiple roles. Virginia Gay plays the role of Calamity Jane throughout the production. -

A Taste of Honey by Shelagh Delaney in Autumn 2019
Thursday 7 February 2019 THE NATIONAL THEATRE WILL TOUR A TASTE OF HONEY BY SHELAGH DELANEY IN AUTUMN 2019 A TASTE OF HONEY IS DIRECTED BY BIJAN SHEIBANI AND DESIGNED BY HILDEGARD BECHTLER JODIE PRENGER WILL PLAY HELEN A TASTE OF HONEY WILL TOUR TO NINE VENUES FROM SEPTEMBER, OPENING AT THE LOWRY, SALFORD The National Theatre today announced a UK tour of Bijan Sheibani’s production of A Taste of Honey, Shelagh Delaney’s remarkable taboo-breaking 1950s play, which was first produced in the Lyttelton Theatre in 2014, designed by Hildegard Bechtler and reconceived in an exciting new production, featuring a live on stage band, for the tour. Jodie Prenger (Oliver!, One Man, Two Guvnors, Abigail’s Party UK tour) plays Helen, with further casting to be announced. Written by Shelagh Delaney when she was nineteen, A Taste of Honey offers an explosive celebration of the vulnerabilities and strengths of the female spirit in a deprived and restless world. When her mother Helen runs off with a car salesman, feisty teenager Jo takes up with Jimmy, a sailor who promises to marry her, before he heads for the seas leaving her pregnant and alone. Art student Geoff moves in and assumes the role of surrogate parent until, misguidedly, he sends for Helen and their unconventional setup unravels. An exhilarating depiction of working-class life in post-war Salford, A Taste of Honey will open there at The Lowry from 13 – 21 September, with a press night on Friday 20 September. The tour will also visit the Kings Theatre, Edinburgh (24 – 28 September); the Marlowe Theatre, Canterbury (1 – 5 October); Richmond Theatre (7 – 12 October); Grand Opera House, Belfast (15 – 19 October); Leicester Curve (22 – 26 October); Theatre Royal, Bath (28 October – 2 November); Grand Theatre, Wolverhampton (5 – 9 November); and the Norwich Theatre Royal (12 – 16 November). -

Coyote Hazing GUIDELINES How to Haze for Effective Reshaping of Coyote Behavior
Coyote Hazing GUIDELINES How to Haze for Effective Reshaping of Coyote Behavior Generally, coyotes are reclusive animals who avoid human contact. Coyotes who’ve adapted to urban and suburban environments, however, may realize there are few real threats and approach people or feel safe CHARLES WOOD visiting yards even when people are present. These coyotes have become habituated (lost their fear of humans), likely due to the ready availability of food in our neighborhoods. Sometimes, this food is deliberately provided by people who like to watch wild animals or misguidedly feel they are helping them by offering food. These bold coyotes should not be tolerated or enticed, but given the message that they should not be so brazen. Hazing is a method that uses deterrents to move an animal out of an area or discourages an undesirable behavior or activity. Hazing can help maintain coyotes’ fear of humans and deter them from neighborhood spaces such as backyards and playgrounds. HAZING METHODS REMEMBER… Using a variety of different hazing tools is critical because coyotes can habituate to individual items, sounds, and actions. u NEVER run away from a coyote! u If the coyote doesn’t leave at first, u Yell and wave your arms while approaching the coyote. continue approaching him and/or u Use noisemakers (e.g. your voice, whistles, air horns, bells, soda cans increase the intensity of your hazing until he runs away. If he runs a short filled with pennies or dead batteries, pots and pans banged together). distance away and then stops and u Use projectiles (e.g.
