As many as 12 eligible participants will be able to train for jobs as fire-protection technicians in the Lower Mainland through a new $200,000 Community and Employer Partnerships (CEP) project funded by the Province.
Recognising that hosting mega sport events may pose risks to children, UNICEF and Save the Dream collaborated to promote integrity, child protection, safety and security in sport. Our Ambassador Alessandro Del Piero visited Rio de Janeiro in the second year of the project.
Part of my job required field visits. Here's the result of a work order I created to replace a pole and transformer. New guidelines require avian and animal protection to be installed so all hot primary conductors are covered as much as possible to prevent electrocution of birds or animals. I had to install a taller pole to correct a conductor clearance violation and the transformer was replaced because a "protected bird" was electrocuted when it got between the neutral bushing and the primary jumper.

These little bottles were fun to make,thrown on the wheel then fired and glazed with antique style glazes, they are waterproof and food safe so they could be used for storing fragrant oils.
Witch protection bottles are used to ward off or break spells cast by witches. People who believe themselves to be hexed would fill one of these bottles with items such as their own hair, fingernails, blood and often urine as well as rusty nails and pins, broken glass, a piece of cloth cut into a heart shape. sometimes red wine and herbs are used and anything small and personal. Then the bottle is sealed with melted wax and a firmly fitted cork and either buried in the garden or placed somewhere where it would never be found. The idea was that while the bottle with its contents stayed intact the hex would be broken and no further spells could be cast upon them. Archaeologists have unearthed witch bottles still intact, hundeds of years old.

There are several different methods for protecting hydrangeas. I’m going to use 2 of them. The first method will be used on my large mature hydrangeas. I’m wrapping them with burlap and stuffing the burlap with leaves. This should insulate the stems from the cold and keep the deer out.

While in Stockholm we went out to the Archipelago and on our return trip I spotted this Coast Guard Vessel tied up along side the station.
We will remove existing potentially contaminated material located on the NE corner of the new structure. Crews will remove the material from the site and fill the area with clean material.

The following information about the Keen Classification system is excerpted from Wickman, Boyd E. 2005. Harry E. Burke and John M. Miller, pioneers in Western forest entomology. Gen. Tech. Rep. PNW-GTR-638. Portland, OR: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Pacific Northwest Research Station. 163 p.:
"Keen’s research on tree classification continued in Oregon and was called the “Keen Ponderosa Pine Tree Classification.” The Salman-Bongberg approach was called the “California Pine Risk-Rating System.” Both systems evolved from research on tree susceptibility to bark beetle attack that had been conducted in the 1920s by Miller, Keen, Patterson, Person, and Struble. Tree growth rates were a particularly important area of the studies, with Miller and Person proposing that slower growing mature ponderosa pine were more susceptible to attack by the western pine beetle than younger more vigorous trees (Smith et al. 1981).
The rating systems resulted in a silvicultural approach to managing the western pine beetle instead of the direct control method of felling infested trees, then peeling and burning the bark. This was a breakthrough for forest managers that allowed them to capture the economic value of susceptible trees before they were killed by bark beetles, and at the same time resulted in decreased beetle populations or at least seemed to prevent outbreaks. The Salman- Bongberg California risk-rating system identified susceptible trees by assigning penalty points to crown and stem characteristics of a tree. This was followed up by a logging practice called sanitation salvage (Smith et al. 1981). The Keen system, involved four classes based on age and four vigor classes within each age class. It was oriented more toward identifying the susceptibility of individual trees to insect attack. Keen also assigned penalty points in his system. It was slightly more complex to use and was not directly tied to the sanitation salvage concept, but a certain level of logging of susceptible trees was generally followed. Keen’s classification was more widely used in ponderosa pine stands of eastern Oregon, and the California system was used for both ponderosa pine and Jeffrey pine stands in eastern California."
