The Liffey Swim Independent Cup
The Independent Cup was donated in 1921 by Independent Newspapers Ltd as a perpetual challenge trophy for the winner (men) of the annual Liffey Swim over a 1.25 mile course. The exact inscription on the front of the cup is "Challenge Cup for Annual Liffey Race (Inaugurated 1920) Presented to the Leinster Branch Irish Amateur Swimming Association by the Irish Independent". The names of all male winners, including that of the inaugural winner J.J. Kennedy in 1920, are engraved on the Cup up to 2004, and now on the base of the trophy since 2005. The trophy was made by Hopkins & Hopkins, Silversmiths, O'Connell Street Bridge, Dublin (Maker mark: H&H) and bears the Dublin Assay Office hallmarks and date letter for 1921 (Britannia, Harp with Crown, Letter F). Hopkins & Hopkins are famous for making the original Sam Maguire Cup, the GAA All Ireland Football Trophy. The initial value of the Irish Independent Cup was 50 guineas. In addition to holding the Challenge Cup for a year, the winner was presented with a solid gold medal.

Burnt ecotone of Minziro Forest
Afrikaans: Brandskade aan die rande van Minzirobos in noordwestelike Tanzanië, ekwatoriale Afrika Hierdie area aan die westelike rand van Minzirobos word via 'n bospaadjie bereik wat die westelike en oostelike grasveldgebiede verbind, waar lg. vanaf Minzirodorp bereik word. Ten tye van die besoek was daar baie mense met beeste in die westelike grasveld, waarvan sommige, te oordeel aan die beesspore op die bospad, en die beeskuddes weerskante van die woud, deur die woud moes getrek het. Beeswagters mag hul kuddes van die dorp tot aan die reservaatgrens laat wei, maar het duidelik die woud en hinterland betree, waar hulle miskien selfs die grens met Uganda oorsteek. Waarskynlik brand hulle die gras, aangesien reservaatpersoneel kwalik hierdie area besoek, weens onbegaanbare paaie, beperkte voertuigbrandstof en die uitgestrekheid van die gebied onder hulle bestuur. Die veldbrande ontsien geen reservaatgrens nie, en affekteer die bosrande soos op die reeks fotos gesien kan word. Besoekers kan hierdie verbindingspad met toestemming van die bosadministrasie benut. Die administrasie, bestuur en veldwagters beoog die popularisering van die area, maar word gekortwiek deur die gebrek aan goeie grond- of tweespoorpaaie. English: Burnt edges of Minziro Forest in Minziro Nature Forest Reserve in northwestern Tanzania, equatorial Africa. This area is on the western fringe of Minziro forest, and is reached via a forest track the connects the western and eastern grassland areas, the latter reached from Minziro village. At the time these photos were taken, the western grassland area was frequented by many people with their cattle. Some of them, judging by the many cattle tracks along the forest corridor and the presence of herds on either side, were passing through the forest. Cattle herders are allowed to graze their animals from Minziro village to the reserve boundary, but they were clearly entering the forest and beyond, perhaps even crossing the Tanzania-Ugandan border. It is assumed that the cattle herders burn the grass, as local rangers hardly approach this area, due to impassable roads (very rough in dry season and impassable in wet season), limited fuel for their vehicles, the size of the area that requires management and other needs. The grass burning does not respect reserve boundaries and is affecting the forest edges as may be seen on the photos. Visitors can travel along this connecting track with permission of the Forest Administration. The administration, management and rangers are interested in promoting the Forest Reserve, but the absence of good trails or usable roads hamper their efforts.

Roads can be used as firebreaks
One week ago Aransas National Wildlife Refuge, in Austwell, TX, on Friday, December 16, 2011 used prescribed burns on this portion of the refuge. Typical of a coastal prairie shoreline, natural occurrences of fire are part of a healthy ecosystem. Phragmites reed grass and other plant roots stabilize the ground and were unharmed by the fire. Healthy growth is already seen from the charred grass and ashes on the ground. A refuge road also serves as an effective firebreak. State Conservationist Salvador Salinas commented on the USDA-NRCS Gulf of Mexico Initiative (GoMI) during a press conference, about improving water quality, habitat, and the health of the Gulf ecosystem. “Launching this initiative is a top priority for NRCS in Texas because the Gulf of Mexico is one of our state’s premier natural resources. It provides vital habitat for wildlife, and creates jobs in industries that depend upon them. The health of this resource is essential to Texas as well as to the nation,” said Salvador Salinas. The Texas initiative focuses on three watersheds in Refugio, Calhoun, Victoria and Aransas counties and ultimately the Gulf of Mexico. “What is really compelling about GoMI and other similar conservation efforts is that they prove that Texas farmers and ranchers not only feed and clothe us and power our vehicles, but they can also help protect and restore our rivers and provide more habitat for wildlife,” stated Salinas. “That’s why it is important that this conservation project is not about taking productive farm land out of production. This is a working lands initiative, so that not only are we helping to restore the health of the Gulf, but we’re also helping to sustain and enhance the productivity of the Gulf’s farms and ranches.” Nationally, USDA-NRCS is dedicating up to $50 million over three years to this effort. NRCS will continue to provide proven technical expertise and that of their partners. The anticipated result is improved water quality, stream flows and wildlife habitat. USDA photo by Lance Cheung.
