Geoff Black, a professor in the Department of Economics and associate at the Energy Policy Institute, conducted a study on the economic and fiscal impacts of the Magic Valley Energy’s Lava Ridge billion-dollar wind farm project in Eastern Idaho. Black conducted the study with Steve Peterson, an economist at the University of Idaho. The farm, when constructed, will stretch across public land in Lincoln, Jerome and Minidoka counties. At 1,000 megawatts, the Lava Ridge wind farm will be one of the biggest wind farms in the world.
“We broke out the increased tax revenues by taxing districts within each of the three counties,” said Black. “The company wanted the county commissioners to see the big increase in tax revenues for school districts and libraries. If the project goes through, local taxing districts could see big annual tax payments for decades.”

The haikuist alludes to a Greek goddess who kept evil from entering the front door in exchange for an offering of dinner on the last day of the lunar month. Wolves go hungry this time of year, notes Anne-Marie McHarg in London. According to the Canadian edition of the Old Farmer’s Almanac, in early British colonial times wolves howled from the crossroads to villages.

A wolf was recently seen in Kall, Germany, running away from a hillside village of 70 people where Lothar M. Kirsch lives. The wolf has been quiet, so the news didn’t spread beyond the community, but the haikuist thinks “the wolf is too wise to announce his arrival in the Eifel Mountains.” The low mountain range is in North Rhine-Westphalia.

Four university presidents, seven football coaches, 43243 graduates, the addition of over 3 million square feet of space, 387 football games and two Fiesta Bowl titles. Boise State has accomplished a lot since September 1990 when the university hired Rocky Yoneda to be part of its facilities and maintenance team.
Yoneda is now retiring from his role as HVAC foreman after over 30 years of keeping Boise State students, faculty and staff comfortable while in campus buildings.
“I heard people say ‘we better call Rocky’ countless times before I actually met him,” said Vice President for Campus Operations and Chief Operating Officer, Randi McDermott. “He has been a go-to individual for many years, truly a part of the fabric that made this university what it is today, and I hope he knows how much we w
When Robbie Balenger decided one day that he would become the plant-based Forest Gump, he never anticipated how the journey would change his life, physically, mentally, and emotionally. It changed my entire identity, Balenger says since although he was the 330th person to run across the United States, and ran the full distance on a vegan diet. To be able to cover the 3,200 miles in 75 days without any animal protein, proved yet again that you don t need to eat meat to be an elite endurance athlete.
The 2019 cross country journey began two years after Balenger left his job running a pizza shop in Austin (he was not plant-based at the time). He moved to Denver with his fiancee, where he hoped to find a new passion and job. In 2018, a year after he had settled in Colorado, to his surprise, he still felt lost but had a desire to pick-up the hobbies that had made him feel his happiest in the past. One of those was running, something he had always enjoyed. He first started by s
