Garter snake - predator for Mountain Yellow-legged Frog
Mountain Yellow-legged Frog disease sampling

[h=2]Predation and Disease[/h]Known predators of mountain yellow-legged frogs include the western terrestrial garter snake (Thamnophis elegans), Brewer's blackbirds (Euphagus cyanocephalus), Clark's nutcrackers (Nucifraga columbiana), and coyotes (Canis latrans). Introduced rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss), golden trout (O. aguabonita), brook charr (Salvelinus fontinalis), and brown trout (Salmo trutta) have been observed to prey on all life stages of mountain yellow-legged frogs. Fish did not occur in much of the high elevation habitat occupied by mountain yellow-legged frogs until the late nineteenth century (Jennings 1988, Moyle 1976, Moyle et al 1996, Knapp 1996). Introduction of trout into high elevation lakes and streams has resulted in significant predation on frogs, is likely preventing re-colonization of locally depleted or extirpated populations, and has altered lake food webs and nutrient cycles
Frogs are also susceptible to mortality from diseases. Bradford (1991) observed a large-scale die-off of mountain yellow-legged frogs from red-leg disease caused by the bacterium (Aeromonas hydrophila). Recently, a chytrid fungus has been infecting larvae and subadults. Chytrid fungus damages the mouthparts of tadpoles, and then goes on to damage keratin in the skin of metamorphosed frogs, eventually killing them. Chytrid fungi are ubiquitous in soil, but the aquatic chytrid infecting frogs was discovered fairly recently.
Because many of the remaining populations of Sierra Nevada mountain yellow-legged frog are small isolated remnants, they are vulnerable to random natural events that could quickly extirpate them.
[h=2]Current Status[/h]Surveys have shown that 93% of the R. sierrae and 95% of R. muscosa historical populations are now extinct. In 2003 the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) determined that the Sierra Nevada population of the mountain yellow-legged frog should be protected under the Endangered Species Act, but that listing the species under the Act is "warranted but precluded". On September 15, 2010, the California Fish and Game Commission accepted a petition from the Center for Biological Diversity to list all populations of the mountain yellow-legged frog (Rana muscosa and Rana sierrae) as "endangered" under the California Endangered Species Act. On February 2, 2012, the California Fish and Game Commission voted 5-0 to add both species of the mountain yellow-legged frog to the list of animals protected under the California Endangered Species Act. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service will be releasing its proposed rule related to listing under the U.S. Endangered Species Act in October 2012.

Ya I've been trying to keep up with all of it. I've sent some emails, but damn! This administration ain't joking around are they? This joker in the white house has made more executive orders than any other president before him. This country is going to hell in a hand basket and at a striking rate.

Hefty1, what county is that sign in?

Hwy 2 east of LA back in 2006...dont know if it is still there.

 

[Sample Pan Dan]

Ah ok thanks

 

[Sample Pan Dan]

This is the east fork of the San Gabriel river, and they say we prospectors are damaging the environment?
But let me guess they all paid for their "green stickers"

[TD="class: msgLineDevider"]Gov. Brown led a 100-member delegation to China in April. What has been the impact?

Gov. Brown signed four memorandums of understanding with Chinese Ministries and local governments covering trade, investments and environmental protection. He officially opened California's first trade office in Shanghai, secured a $1.5 billion land development deal and confirmed a future Chinese electric bus factory in Lancaster. As he pointed out before leaving China, 'I think we all received more than we expected and maybe more than we deserved.' This is a good start for China-California all-around cooperation - there's a lot more to come.

How will President Xi's "Chinese Dream," play out in California?

By 2020, China's GDP and per capita income ($5,432 in 2011) will double. By the mid-21st century, China will be a modern socialist country that is prosperous, strong, democratic, culturally advanced and harmonious.

As California seeks to reinvigorate its economy by entering emerging markets, China, with its fast-growing middle class and ever-expanding domestic demand,, will continue to be one of the most lucrative markets in the world. California's expertise in high technology and sustainable products is well-positioned to help China achieve its economic shifts outlined in the country's Five Year Plan.

What is the current relationship between California and China?

California exported nearly $14 billion to China in 2012, second to Washington among the 50 states. Last year, China exported $127.7 billion to California. Those numbers are both going up this year.

My Consulate has a registered list of 117 Chinese companies that have already set up offices or appointed representatives in Northern California. These companies include: finance, air transportation, IT, venture capital, restaurants, hotel, touring, real estate, apparel, pharmaceuticals, machinery, chemistry, logistics, new energy, forestry, winery, legal service, interpretation, railway & infrastructure, construction designing, mining and resource development.

Among the biggest players are the Industrial & Commercial Bank of China, Bank of Communication, China Telecom, China Mobile, China Unicom, Huawei, China Youth Touring Service USA (CYTS), Tencent, Hanergy, Hanhai Investment.

What is the secret of China's success?

Reform and opening up is the core secret of our success. We have strived to embrace a global economy, free our mind and make comprehensive progess in poltical, social, economic and cultura spheres. The state-owned economy still exists, but China has carved out a distinctive path we call 'socialism with Chinese characteristics.' We ditched the dogma that the market economy is the preserve of capitalism and combined the 'invisible hand' or market forces with the 'visible hand' of government macro-management, taking advantage of the strength of both hands, unlocking immense productive potential.

What's was your reaction when you were posted to San Francisco?

I was going to paradise. Nice climate, blue sky, fresh air, green mountains, clear water, colorful life, warm hospitality. Yuan, my name, means money in Chinese, and living here makes me feel healthy, lucky and happy after being in Surinam, a small country of 500,000 people.

More than 160 years ago, many Chinese came to "Gold Mountain" in search of riches. San Francisco's still known as Gold Mountain today, since Northern California's been at the forefront of economicc growth, scientific progress, innovation, environmental protection and sustainability

Honestly guys the issue here is that as a society we have let this happen. Democrats would love to see you never leave the city so they could make sure they could get all the tax money they could possibly squeeze out of you. This sucking you dry thing will continue until you stop feeling guilty about nature. Only the strong survive. And it's time for us to survive again. Go out locked and loaded and if some dingbat asks you for identification then you tell them no. If they ask to see your permit you tell them that unless they actually have probable cause that you are performing a crime then they can shove off on that count too. This is America not Nazi Germany and we don't have to show license for every action. Stop allowing them to bully you and we will all be better off. If we have to we will resort to defensive violence. It's time or its time to roll over and let govt have their way with you. I don't know about you guys but I've stayed out of prison for a reason. I like my o-ring (anus) just the way it is and I won't take a screwing from the govt either. You wanna fight back? Then you are actually going to have to fight. Our forefathers new they were risking all that they had and by the end of that war many had lost all they owned but look at what all the generations since have enjoyed. If you are truly tired of being pushed around then you know what action to take.

Alert! Urgent and Serious Forest Problems​

A Town Hall Meeting with Fresno County Sheriff Margaret Mims sponsored by Defend Rural America[SUP]TM[/SUP] to be held on June 19, 2013 at 6:00pm.
The event provides members of the community opportunity to discuss the following urgent and serious forest problems.

1. Remember the Spotted Owl fiasco under the Endangered Species Act? Loggers lost their jobs and timber mills were closed devastating the mountain communities. Now the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is planning to seal off 2 million acres of forests in California to protect a frog and a toad. Fourteen counties, including Fresno, and 9 forests, including Sierra and Sequoia National Forests, are targeted. Deadlines for stopping this are looming.

2. The dry, hazardous conditions in our forests is another serious issue. The current drought and lack of proper management have left our forests a tinderbox.

3. Water, Water, Water! The loss of over 1 million acre feet of water is another issue. According to Steve Brink, Vice President of the California Forestry Association,

“The Forest Service manages slightly over 50% of the productive forest land in California. About 70% of these lands are overly dense with vegetation averaging 266 trees/acre on a landscape that can only sustain about 40-100 trees/acre. The Forest Service forest health and small tree and brush removal projects only offset 7% of the annual growth.
“”This overly dense vegetation is soaking up 9-16% more water than if it was thinned and maintained in a resilient condition. This amounts to over 1 million acre feet of additional water that could be in our reservoirs instead of being transpired through the excess vegetation into the atmosphere.
“Further, the Sierra Nevada Mountains are a fire-adapted ecology. The overly dense vegetative condition is leading to an increase in the number, size and intensity of wildfires. At the current pace of wildfires, all of the forest lands in California’s national forests will burn over the next 35 years.”
Sheriff Margaret Mims would like to hear from members of the community regarding these problems along with Access to Public Lands, Public Safety, Road Closures, Fire Prevention, Grazing, and Jobs.
Please see the attached Event Flier for added information.
Feel free to share it with your contacts.
We would appreciate you promoting the event in any way you think beneficial.###

[TD="class: msgLineDevider"]Dear MARK,

I recently published an op-ed on FoxNews.com about the dangers of Barack Obama’s NSA sifting through our phone records and emails.

Unchecked government spying turns our constitutional principles upside down.

That’s why I’m asking ten million Americans to fight back against the NSA’s data collection by joining my class action lawsuit.

Take a few moments to read my op-ed below and then sign the Joining Statement for my class action law suit.

If you have already signed, please forward this email to your friends.

In Liberty,

Senator Rand Paul

---

Sorry, Mr. Obama, the Constitution is not negotiable
By Sen. Rand Paul / Published June 12, 2013 / FoxNews.com

In the United States, we are supposed to have a government that is limited with its parameters established by our Constitution. This notion that the federal government can monitor everyone’s phone data is a major departure from how Americans have traditionally viewed the role of government.

If this is acceptable practice, as the White House and many in both parties now say it is, then there are literally no constitutional protections that can be guaranteed anymore to citizens.

In the name of security, say our leaders, the Constitution has become negotiable.

This is what the White House is saying when it defends the National Security Agency’s gathering of Verizon’s client data en masse, or what President Obama calls a “modest encroachment” on our rights, as he assures us that “Nobody is listening to your phone calls.”

Anytime we give up our liberty—we lose.

Perhaps he can also assure us that nobody at the Internal Revenue Service is targeting political dissidents.

Perhaps he can assure us that nobody at the Justice Department is seizing reporters’ phone records.

Sorry, Mr. President, but “trust me” is not good enough.

President Obama says, “You can't have 100 percent security and also then have 100 percent privacy and zero inconvenience.” But we couldn’t have 100 percent security even if we turned America into a total police state—something too many seem eager for—because there’s no such thing as a risk free society.

When balancing liberty against security, the American tradition has always been to err on the side of liberty. Targeting potential terror suspects by obtaining a warrant is an “inconvenience” the Founders’ intentionally put upon the government in order to protect the privacy of citizens.

Now this president turns this core constitutional principle on its head.

There are also Republicans who seem to want more power for government and less for citizens. One senator, a particularly zealous defender of the surveillance state, has said that he would be fine with “censoring the mail” if “necessary” to keep us safe.

This senator would open citizens’ mail, detain them indefinitely if he decided they were dangerous, claw his way through their trash, peek in their bedrooms if he decided they were an enemy, and then if they dared to ask for a lawyer, he would bark: "Shut up! You don’t get a lawyer!"

Such arrogance and tone deafness!

A government as omnipotent as this may be powerful enough to spy on all of its citizens all of the time, but doesn’t seem to be able to even stop terrorists like the Boston Marathon bombers and the “underwear bomber” – both of whom set off warnings before they were noticed.

Instead of monitoring billions of phone calls and spying on law-abiding Americans, perhaps we should have been done more targeted monitoring of the Boston bombing suspects, one of whom traveling to Chechnya, largely undetected.

Clutching desperately for relevance, some Republican Senators point wildly at the Boston Marathon bombing and grit out, "See, I told you so! America is too part of the battlefield.”

Duh! No one is arguing that our enemies won’t attack us here and that we shouldn't defend ourselves. Constitutionalists simply argue that we can defend the homeland and the Bill of Rights simultaneously, and to relinquish concrete liberties for an illusive security is a fool's errand.

I can remember not so long ago, when the war caucus—and we don’t need to name any names—were all saying “we have to fight them over there so we don’t have to fight them here.”

Now, they are saying we have to give up our liberties to fight them here? Who is winning this battle?

Regardless, anytime we give up our liberty—we lose.

National security is the federal government’s top priority. We have always balanced liberty with common sense security precautions. There are unquestionably exceptions to every rule.

But those who continue to defend the National Security Agency’s actions are essentially saying that something that would be controversial even as an exception—blanket phone trolling by the government—is now the new rule. They are saying it’s OK to spy on citizens’ phone data without a warrant, not just one time or a few times, but all the time.

They are saying that suspending the Bill of Rights is now the new normal.

In my world, the Constitution still applies.
