The Development Threat Index is part of the Land Use Land Cover collection. The cumulative development threat index is a terrestrial global, future development threat map based on combining these resources: agricultural expansion, urban expansion, conventional oil and gas, unconventional oil and gas, coal, mining, biofuels, solar, and wind. Each threat ranked potential development from 0–100 with 100 indicating the highest potential for future development of the resource and were produced at a 50 square kilometer (km2) grid cell resolution, excluding all cells overlapping Antarctica and those with >50% considered marine. This map displays the projected future development threat of agricultural expansion. The area-ranked threat scores are based on estimates of the fractional amount of agricultural expansion by 2030 extrapolated from 2000–2011 cropland and pasture time series maps.
Plan has been running a project since 2005 to help children who are living on railway tracks. Research revealed that 700 children live on railway stations, including runaway kids.

This is the beginnings of the construction of the new Crown Farm mixed use development, located in the far Southwestern part of the city of Gaithersburg, in Montgomery County, Maryland, USA. The development is being built on one of the last large, vacant parcels of land left in the heavily built up Central area of Montgomery County, Maryland, and was first proposed in 2004, but was delayed by the Nationwide economic slowdown, which caused the original developers for the project to go bankrupt. But, new developers were found, and after much anticipation and some earthwork on the site, construction of the actual buildings began in late September of last year 2012. The project will be built in several phases, with some of the later phases even possibly including some highrise buildings of up to about 15 to 20 floors in height. The first phase, seen here under construction, will include some multistory buildings of up to about five or six floors in height, with retail on the groung floor, and residences and/or offices in the floors above. Also included, I believe in the first phase, will be a Harris Teeter grocery store, but I'm not sure if it will be an urban-style store, at the ground floor of a multi-story building, or a more traditional single level store. There is a Harris Teeter in the ground level of an about 20 story highrise condo building in nearby Rockville, Montgomery County, Maryland, which is why I thought that maybe the Harris Teeter in this development might have a similar layout. There are actually quite a few such urban-style retail stores existing or under construction in the area, including even the under construction first Wal-Mart store in Washington, DC itself, located just a few blocks North of the U.S. Capitol Building, on the ground level of an under construction seven story building that will have underground parking, the first two above ground stories with retail, including the about 76,000 square foot Wal-Mart and some smaller in-line retail, and five stories of residences above the retail stories. It would sure be cool to live in the same building as a Wal-Mart or other nice grocery store, though I'm not sure I would want to live in Washington, DC itself, since I've lived all my live in suburban style subdivisions, so that's what I'm used to. Gaithersburg is a Northern, middle ring suburb of Washington, DC, located in the Central area of Montgomery County, Maryland, that currently has a young and very diverse population of about 61,000 people, and is growing relatively fast in population. Montgomery County, Maryland is located just North of Washington, DC, is the most populated of the 24 counties in the U.S. state of Maryland, currently has a diverse population of about 990,000 people, and is growing relatively fast in population. Montgomery County, Maryland is the second most populated county in the vast Washington, DC-Baltimore metropolitan area, behind neighboring Fairfax County, Virginia, which is in turn also the most populated county in the U.S. state of Virginia, with an also diverse current population of about 1.1 million people, and growing in population at about the same relatively fast rate as Montgomery County, Maryland.

Tennessee has two state flowers. The Purple Passionflower (Passiflora incarnata) is the state's wildflower and the iris is the state's cultivated flower.
Tennessee has played a critical role in the development of many forms of American popular music, including rock and roll, blues, country music, and rockabilly.
Tennessee has nine official state songs
1. My Homeland, Tennessee, by Nell Grayson Taylor (words) and Roy Lamont Smith (music)
2. When It's Iris Time in Tennessee, by Willa Waid Newman

Tennessee trip info:
In the morning our tour continues to Tennessee with a trip through the Great Smoky Mountains. After a stop in Gatlinburg, TN, we will continue on to Pigeon Forge, TN to see the Dixie Stampede Western show, which was created by the great Dolly Parton. During the Christma (Dec. 27th), guests will also have chance to appreciate the exclusive Christmas Special Shows and a brief but exciting "The Epiphany of Our Lord Chris" performance. We will spend the night in Chattanooga, TN.
Great Smoky Mountains, TN The Great Smoky Mountains are a mountain range rising along the Tennessee–North Carolina border in the southeastern United States. The range is sometimes called the Smoky Mountains and the name is commonly shortened to the Smokies.
Great Smoky Mountains Park This 520,000-acre park on the eastern border of Tennessee is a United States National Park and UNESCO World Heritage. It is the most-visited national park in the United States, and is renown for the beauty of its landscapes.
Ober Gatlinburg Aerial Tramway The Ober Gatlinburg amusement park and ski resort boasts many rides and attractions, but perhaps none are quite as scenic and beautiful as the Aerial Tramway. The cable car brings riders 2.1 miles up the Great Smoky Mountains.
Pigeon Forge, TN Pigeon Forge is a mountain resort city in Sevier County, Tennessee, located in the southeastern United States. Pigeon Forge is primarily a tourist destination. The city's attractions include Dollywood, numerous outlet malls, and music theaters.
Dolly Parton's Dixie Stampede In 1988, the first Dixie Stampede opened in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, just outside of Dollywood, Dolly Parton's theme park. The show is still going strong today, and has expanded to two other locations in the American South.
Chattanooga
We will spend the day exploring Chattanooga, TN and the surrounding area. Our day includes heading to Rock City and seeing the Ruby Falls.
Chattanooga, TN Chattanooga is the fourth-largest city in the U.S. state of Tennessee. A unique distinction for Chattanooga is the fact that the city has its own typeface, Chatype, which was launched in August 2012.
Ruby Falls The famous Ruby Falls, an underground waterfall, are a natural phenomenon, and are fed by rainwater and underground springs. The water from the falls flows out of the caverns and eventually joins up with the Tennessee River.
Rock City is as famous for its aggressive mid-19th-century marketing campaigns as for its views and gardens. Still, Rock City does offer a lot to visitors: panoramic views, botanical gardens, and amazing rock formations are all features.
Lookout Mountain Incline Railway This tram has been running almost continually since 1895, and with the exception of an engine update in 1911, it hasn't changed that much. The ride stretches about one mile up the mountain and reaches a grade of 72.7%.

These structures seem to be abandoned development on Bribie island as you enter Pacific harbour. Absolutely fascinating. The white on these 'structures is actually styrofoam type material, perhaps used for insulation in the process of the building of them. It was not easy to get these as I had to take photos through a fence that runs around it.
Staff from various government Ministries in Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, and Ethiopia work to develop a strategic vision of the future, and explore feasible strategies towards this vision by testing them using scenarios of plausible alternate futures.
