Minor, also known as Squire Park, is home to Seattle University, which sits along the western border. Only about one mile directly east of Downtown Seattle, this popular neighborhood is nestled between Seattle's International and Central Districts. Named for Seattle Mayor T.T. Minor who founded the Seattle Railway, this neighborhood has a rich history.
The Abies Balsamea is commonly known as the Balsam, Balsam Fir, Blister Fir, Bracted Balsam Fir, Canada Balsam, Canadian Balsam as well as Eastern Fir.The currently accepted scientific name of balsam fir is Abies balsamea(L.) Mill . The genus Abies consists of about 40 species ofevergreen trees found in the Northern Hemisphere. Nine Abies species,including balsam fir, are native to the United States.Balsam fir is widely distributed and exhibits geographic variation. Twovarieties based on morphological differences are recognized : var. balsamea var. phanerolepis Fern.Balsam fir is closely related to Fraser fir (A. fraseri). These speciesare probably relicts of an ancestral taxon which exhibited north-southclinal variation . Trees in Virginia and West Virginia are possiblyhybrids between these two species . Some authorities recognizeFraser fir as a variety of balsam fir: A. b. var. fraseri .Balsam fir hybridizes with subalpine fir (A. lasiocarpa) where theirranges overlap in the Canadian Rockies .Balsam fir is widely distributed in northeastern North America. Itoccurs from Newfoundland west across northern Quebec, northern Ontario,central Manitoba, and Saskatchewan to northwestern Alberta, south about400 miles (640 km) to central Alberta, southeast to northern Minnesotaand Wisconsin, and east to New England . In the United States,scattered populations occur in southern Minnesota, southern Wisconsin,northeastern Iowa, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and northern Virginia.The two varieties are distributed as follows :var. balsamea - from Newfoundland and Labrador west to northeastern Alberta and south to Minnesota, Wisconsin, southern Ontario, northern Pennsylvania, New York, and New England. It is local in northeastern Iowa. var. phanerolepis - from Newfoundland and Labrador to Ontario and Maine and in the high mountains of New Hamphire, Vermont, and New York. It is also common in the higher mountains of Virginia and West Virginia.Balsam fir is more commonly found in mixed than in pure stands. It doesoccurs as a dominant species in pure stands in Newfoundland, Ontario,and Quebec. Its importance as a major forest tree declines west ofManitoba . Balsam fir is a principal tree of boreal mixed stands inCanada, where it occurs with paper birch (Betula papyrifera), aspen(Populus tremuloides), black spruce (Picea mariana), and white spruce(P. glauca) .In the Lake States, climax stands of balsam fir are relatively uncommon. In Maine, balsam fir forms pure stands on flats between swampsand uplands . In the Adirondacks, balsam fir sometimes dominatesupper slopes above 3,200 feet (975 m) . In New England and the LakeStates, balsam fir is more commonly found in mixed stands, especially inforests dominated by black spruce, red spruce (Picea rubens), whitespruce, eastern hemlock (Tsuga canadensis), northern white-cedar (Thujaoccidentalis), paper birch, aspen, and red maple (Acer rubrum).Balsam fir is listed as a dominant part of the vegetation in thefollowing community type (cts) and ecosystem (eas) classifications: Area Classification AuthorityPQ: Gaspe Peninsula forest veg. cts Zoladeski 1988ON forest eas Jones & others 1983Some of the information provided here is attributed to:Uchytil, Ronald J. 1991.

H. occidentale affects many species of western conifers. Primary hosts in Oregon and Washington are Abies spp., Tsuga spp., Douglas-fir, and Picea spp. Grand fir and white fir east of the Cascades crest (Eastside) and in southwest Oregon are frequently killed. Other species are less likely to be killed, but some may develop extensive decay and experience breakage and windthrow. Douglas-fir may be severely damaged in some Eastside locations. Large western hemlocks growing west of the Cascades crest that are older than 120 years are frequently butt-rotted and may develop hollow butts. H. occidentale commonly causes extensive decay and breakage in old-growth mountain hemlock stands. Although stumps of non-host pines and junipers growing in mixed conifer stands frequently are colonized by H. occidentale, the pathogen does not spread from infected non-host stumps to cause root disease in adjacent host trees.
H. occidentale is very common and causes considerable mortality east of the Cascades crest and in southwestern Oregon in stands having a high proportion of grand or white fir. In the Cascade Mountains and west of the Cascades, H. occidentale causes extensive root and butt rot in western hemlock and mountain hemlock stands, most commonly in trees older than 120 years, but at some northwest coastal Washington locations western hemlock trees as young as 50 years have extensive decay. H. irregulare commonly causes mortality of ponderosa pine and associated western juniper growing on very poor, dry Eastside sites.
H. occidentale and H. irregulare can have profound effects upon forest composition, density, structure, and succession when widely distributed throughout a stand or landscape composed of highly susceptible host trees. Heterobasidion root disease may cause undesired reductions in stand densities, limit the species of trees which can be grown to a large size on a site, and cause high rates of mortality. The abundant down wood resulting from high levels of root disease infection may increase ground fire severity. Losses are greatest east of the Cascades crest and in southwest Oregon in partially cut stands of pure grand fir and white fir, or where fir basal area exceeds 20 m2 per hectare, total stand basal area exceeds 75 m2 per hectare, and stand age exceeds 120 years. Pine mortality may be high on eastside poor, dry sites where few other tree species can grow. On recreational and administrative sites, forest work sites, and along roadsides, trees with heterobasidion root disease have a high potential for failure and can present a significant safety hazard.
Phase One of the Doha FIR covers all the economic waters and land of the State of Qatar in addition to the international waters east of Qatar till the borders of the United Arab Emirates to an unlimited altitude.
9. They favor stressed trees.Trees growing in poor soils or affected by drought are more susceptible to infestations. This could be why Douglas fir on the dry east side of the Cascades are more likely to host Dwarf Mistletoe. But this is also an example of the role that this parasite plays in forest succession and, over millennia, the evolution of its host species. By preying on the weakest among their hosts, Mistletoe mimic so many examples in nature where predation on sick or frail helps improve the gene pool of the prey species.
The good news is that the Forest Service is gradually moving in this direction with gradual plantation thinning starting to take hold in the Mount Hood area and even the occasional use of fire as a management tool in other parts of Oregon. Not everyone agrees with plantation thinning, but so far, the results appear to support continuing this practice, at least until the most overgrown plantations have been thinned to a semblance of a natural forest.

Located at the north-eastern edge of the African continent and facing Europe on the other side of the Mediterranean, Egypt is a major country which plays an important role in the stability of the Middle East and North Africa.
Libya has fallen into a situation of serious conflict among several groups rooted in tribes and has experienced security deterioration. A national unity government of three factions exists based on the political agreement that was brokered by the UN, as well as the west (Tripoli) and east (Tobruk) factions. The national unity government entered the capital in March, but it has still not been recognized by the parliament established by the east faction. The militia which supports the government took control of major ISIL bases in December, but other extremist organizations are very active and the security situation remains unstable. It is expected that the national unity government will achieve legal legitimacy with government recognition of the parliament to achieve stability of the country and the neighboring region.
The Doha (Qatari capital) FIR was inaugurated on 8 September, giving Qatar total control over all flights up to FL245 (24, 500 feet); Bahrain will still control international waters nearby, and aircraft above FL245. Stage 2 will happen on 23 March 2023, giving over more control to Qatari controller, but still letting Bahraini FIR hang on to some northeastern waters. Finally, Stage 3 will occur either at the end of 2024 or 2025, when Qatar assumes the entire responsibility of all flights.
In assessing the situation, the Secretary-General's report pointed to the mixed legacy of the 24 years of occupation, resulting in a gulf of understanding separating those who spent years as resistance fighters, those who lived in occupied towns and villages and those who went into exile. Veterans and young people were also likely to be divided by a generation gap. Furthermore, the single party that had dominated politics since 2001 rested its claim to be the party of government. Among other factors were long-standing frictions between easterners and westerners in the armed forces and the police. The report also noted that the roots of the imbalance in power between the institutions of State, allowing the executive to operate with few constraints, were political, institutional and constitutional. Poverty and its associated deprivations had contributed to the crisis.
