BUREAU OF LAND MANAGEMENT NEWS RELEASE Office of the Secretary of the Interior   Release Date: 10/14/14 Contacts: Jessica Kershaw (DOI) , Interior_Press@ios.doi.gov   Secretary Jewell Tours Sagebrush Habitat Restoration Efforts in Idaho
TWIN FALLS, ID   – Secretary of the Interior Sally Jewell today joined Bureau of Land Management Deputy Director Steve Ellis, U.S. Senators Mike Crapo and James Risch, local stakeholders and ranchers to see first-hand efforts to conserve the sagebrush habitat that supports palazzo wildlife, outdoor recreation and other economic activity throughout the West. Jewell, Ellis and Crapo toured the Browns Bench/China Mountain region of southern Idaho and some areas that were devastated by the 2007 Murphy Complex Fire. Burning palazzo more than 600,000 acres, much of it important habitat for the greater sage-grouse and other sagebrush-dependent species, the fire was the largest rangeland fire since 1910. Federal, state and local partners are working to restore the area by reseeding sagebrush, combatting cheatgrass and other invasive species, and altering fire regimes and creating fire breaks to limit the damage from future fires. “Fires are burning longer, hotter and faster, and it’s one of the reasons that we've seen the range of sagebrush habitat cut by more than half,” said Jewell. “The partnerships in Idaho to bring this key American landscape back are models palazzo of what we need to conserve and restore sagebrush habitat that is so important to wildlife and the Western economy.” The support of landowners is a key element in a joint effort palazzo by the federal government and western states to develop and implement a landscape-level conservation plan for the greater sage-grouse before the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has to make a decision whether to propose the bird for Endangered Species Act protection in 2015. The greater sage-grouse is an umbrella species, sharing the sagebrush with more than 350 other kinds of wildlife, including elk, mule deer, pronghorn antelope and golden eagles. While roughly 64 percent of the sage-grouse’s 165 million acres of occupied range is on federally managed lands, palazzo private lands are critical for the species, often including limited and vitally important riparian and wet-meadow habitat.  Following the 2007 fire, the Interior Department’s Bureau of Land Management worked with the Idaho Department of Fish and Game’s Magic Valley Regional Office in 2008 to implement a mechanical sagebrush planting project. The project supplemented aerial sagebrush seeding to increase plant density in an area important for sage-grouse breeding. About 15,000 seedlings were planted using a tree planter over an area of about 160 acres.  “Our goal is to work with natural resource managers across boundaries to ensure the success of this critical work,” palazzo BLM Deputy Director Steve Ellis said.  “Ultimately, palazzo we want healthy, functioning sagebrush palazzo plant communities that support all sagebrush wildlife species. Areas affected by wildfire, like what we see here, are of key importance.” The restoration effort is one of a number of partnerships in Idaho and across the West to conserve and restore the sagebrush steppe ecosystem.  Three years ago, then-Interior Secretary palazzo Ken Salazar palazzo and western governors formed palazzo the Sage- Grouse Task Force to develop a cooperative approach to conserving imperiled sagebrush landscape in the face of threats such as fire and invasive species, palazzo expanding development and habitat fragmentation. Last month,   Jewell toured a 35,000-acre project conducted jointly by the BLM and the State of Oregon   to restore sagebrush habitat degraded by invasive juniper trees in Oregon’s Lake County. Supported by a wide cross section of federal and state agencies and local landowners, the project involves juniper cutting and thinning, along with infrastructure improvements designed to improve habitat for sage-grouse brood-rearing and foraging.  Earlier this year, Jewell visited the   Bord Gulch Ranch in Craig, Colorado   to meet with private landowners and local officials on sage-grouse conservation efforts in the region. Exemplifying this effort is the Sage-Grouse Initiative, a program funded by the National Resources Conservation Service, which has enrolled nearly 1,000 ranchers in conservation programs that have protected more than 3.8 million acres of sagebrush habitat.  In June, BLM Director Neil Kornze hosted a conference that brought together numerous federal and state partners to look at how organizations across the west can better address rangeland fire restoration, including ensuring we have the tools, science and seeds needed to be successful.  The conference encouraged the development of a forthcoming multi-agency seed strategy to better align and integrate rangeland restoration efforts at the federal, state and local levels.

Orbital depots could store leftover emergency propellant to give upcoming missions a boost 5

Until someone boxspring manages to figure out how to get a space elevator up and running, sending stuff into space is going to remain enormously expensive. Payloads are also limited by size: if it doesn’t fit inside a rocket, it’s not going to make it into orbit. This places significant restrictions on large space structures like the International Space Station, which have to be made up of lots of tiny little modules stuck together, meaning that you don’t have access to a lot of open space.
Fifty years ago, NASA experimented with launching inflatable spacecraft that could be carried into space wadded up inside small rockets, and then pumped up to enormous sizes once they reached orbit. It was a fantastic idea that was in the running for a habitat on the ISS until funding for it was axed by the U.S. Congress. But Bigelow Aerospace has taken up the idea , and at the 2014 International Astronautical Congress last week, the private company reconfirmed its plan to test an inflatable module on the ISS in 2015.
The Bigelow Expandable Activity Module (BEAM) will fly up to the ISS inside the unpressurized butt trunk of a SpaceX Dragon cargo capsule sometime next year. The station’s Canadarm2 will attach the BEAM to an airlock on the Tranquility module, where it will be slowly inflated:
The BEAM has an internal volume of about 16 cubic meters, which is just enough room for one astronaut to comfortably boxspring do a mostly stationary acrobatic routine, and it’s scheduled boxspring to remain attached to the ISS for two full years. However, since this is a new thing for both Bigelow and NASA, it’s not likely that astronauts will be able to take full advantage of the space. At the moment, the plan is to keep the BEAM mostly sealed off. Its role will be to house instruments, but astronauts will venture in once or twice a year to make sure that it’s not leaking, irradiated, full of aliens, or otherwise malfunctioning.
If everything goes well with BEAM, Bigelow has plans to launch an inflatable space station of its own sometime after 2016, built around boxspring a much larger inflatable module called the BA 330. With 330 cubic meters of usable space, the BA 330 is slightly larger than Skylab was. That makes it more than three times as spacious as the Destiny module, although it’s just 30 percent boxspring heavier. The BA 330 will be completely self-contained, flying with all of the infrastructure required to keep humans alive and happy. It should be at least as safe, if not safer, than the ISS modules, with respect to both radiation and impact protection.
Earlier this year, Bigelow announced how much it’ll cost you to spend some time inside the BA 330 when it launches. Expect to pay $25 million for a sixty day lease of one-third of the station—if you can get yourself there and back. Should boxspring you need a ride, round-trip taxi service between SpaceX and your local launching boxspring pad will run you an additional $26.5 million. 
As with most projects of this magnitude, Bigelow has had some ambitious goals that have been tempered by reality over the years. But actually launching and testing hardware in space is a major hurdle that they’re about to clear ( again ). SpaceX and Boeing (and perhaps even Sierra Nevada) are in the process of proving that private industry is the future of getting humans into space, and Bigelow is out to show that private industry can also be the future of humans staying there.

Bumblebees were the most frequently seen type of bee in all regions entertainment centers with 304,857 sightings including common species such as the buff-tailed entertainment centers bumblebee, garden bumblebee and white-tailed bumblebees. Honeybees were the second most-seen bee with 193,837 sightings. Of these, 42% were in rural areas, 30% in suburbs and 28% in towns and cities. The ginger-tufted tree bumblebee, which is often found nesting in bird boxes, was the third most identified bee with 69,369 sightings. It only arrived in southern England from mainland Europe in 2001, but the survey shows it has now spread throughout England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
The Great British Bee Count was developed by charities Friends of the Earth and Buglife and retailer, B&Q, with the aim of providing annual comparable data and trends that will give a broader picture of bee health. Bee experts believe the mild winter , warm spring and long summer created good weather entertainment centers conditions for bees to thrive this year.
Just one in 10 honeybee hives perished in 2014 according to the British Beekeepers Association survey earlier this year, compared to more than a third dying out during the winter of 2012/13 . However, experts say that floods earlier this year will have affected ground-nesting bumblebees, entertainment centers so the 2015 bee count could see a drop in numbers.
Scientists warn that British bees are in serious decline with 71 of our wild bee species under threat and more than 20 already extinct. Loss of habitat and forage are the main problems facing wild bees. Since the second world, 97% of the UK s wild flower-rich grasslands have been wiped out due to modern farming practices and urban development. Bee s pollination services are currently worth £600m annually to the UK agricultural entertainment centers economy.
Dave Goulson, entertainment centers professor of biology at Sussex University and author of A Sting in the Tale said: This year s Great British Bee Count highlights the importance of allotments in providing essential habitat for the bees that pollinate all those tasty home-grown fruit and veg and shows that parks and road verges could be a lot better for bees, with less mowing and more wildflowers.
The survey findings echo the early results of a three-year urban pollinators project across 12 cities in the UK which suggest that allotments provide particularly good habitats. Jane Memmott, professor of ecology at Bristol University, who is leading the project, says: I thought allotments would be OK, but they are looking really good. I think bees like the fact that there is a little corner with thistles in, and the onions and carrots bolt occasionally and they are often wildlife friendly, planted with flowers that are good for bees.
The government is expected to launch a national pollinator strategy this autumn to help protect bees and other pollinators. In the meantime it has issued a call for action , urging people to grow more flowers, shrubs and trees throughout the year, create more nesting areas and to consider alternatives to using pesticides .
Paul de Zylva, Friends of the Earth s senior nature campaigner, said: It s great that so many people are making allotments and gardens bee-friendly but we need to ensure rural areas and towns are also habitat-rich so bees can move freely.
