1) Lance and Michelle Lindbloom organized two Southern Utah Woody Biomass Field Days to demonstrate methods for harvesting overgrown pinyon-juniper woodlands and find new uses for the harvested materials.
2) Over 450 people attended the field days, which featured demonstrations of harvesting, processing, and gasification equipment, and addressed the ecological and economic benefits of proactively managing pinyon-juniper encroachment.
3) The field days helped spread awareness of restoration efforts and partnerships between industry and government to control pinyon-juniper expansion, which threatens biodiversity, wildlife habitat, and water resources across the Western U.S.

Getting online information to come to you nacaa 2012nacaa
Today we face a problem, not of information scarcity, but an over abundance of information. Getting useful online information to flow to you is critical to keep pace with the explosion of online knowledge.
We often find reliable and interesting sources of information, but find it difficult to keep returning to see what’s been posted recently. RSS feeds and feed readers help deliver up-to-date content from the sources you choose. This session will explain what an RSS feed is, and how you can use a feed reader to aggregate all these updates in one, easy to read, place - and keep them out of your inbox.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Abstract Objectives
Currently there are nearly 50 million acres of Pinyon/Juniper woodlands across the West and • Bring attention to the problems that the Pinyon/Juniper
more acres are being invaded each year. The risks presented by expanding and overstocked invasion are causing in Utah and other western states.
Pinyon/Juniper woodlands and the associated impacts on ecosystem biodiversity, wildlife • Demonstrate what woody biomass harvesting is all about
habitat, and water quantity and quality are cause for major concern. Recently the BLM and and the state of the art equipment that is available
Forest Service are renewing its efforts to control this problem. Proactive management can
provide positive use of (PJ) fuels while reducing fire suppression and restoration costs. In • Find new markets for the materials that are being harvested
order to make it possible to clear more ground, many groups are trying to find ways to use the
Pinyon/ Juniper to recoup some of the costs of the harvesting. Thanks to the work of Lance
and Michelle Lindbloom of Bloomin Ranch Service, a private contractor currently working in
Beaver County, we were able to hold two field days. The field days demonstrated different
methods of harvesting the pinyon/juniper and looked at ways of adding value to the harvested
trees. During the field days, harvesting, handling and processing equipment were
demonstrated. Leading experts in the woody biomass and forestry industry addressed the
importance of restoring the woodlands and ways for industry and government to partner
together to address the problem. A total of over 450 people have attended the two field days
and plans are being made to make this an annual event.
