I just wanna talk to whoever thought this was a good idea

[the-hermit-in-her-cave]

This is probably even more shady than it seems. They raise the rates and then less people go. Low attendance numbers leads to that park getting less attention and less money. This discourages new parks and devalues current parks. Then the government can be like “lol people don’t care about nature let’s drill” Parks and libraries should be free places for people to enrich themselves, but smart sheep aren’t worth anything 🐑

^^^This. It’s why they’re also slashing park funding. According to the linked article, the current budget proposal includes:

Cutting base operating funding by $132 million, affecting at least 90 percent of parks. This includes cuts to law enforcement, health and safety, natural and cultural resource projects, and volunteer and youth programs.

Cutting 1,242 staff positions.

A 37 percent cut to the Historic Preservation Fund.

A drastic cut to federal Land and Water Conservation Fund, which helps parks purchase private lands within park boundaries from willing sellers that would otherwise be vulnerable to inappropriate commercial or residential development.

Elimination of the National Heritage Area program, which preserves large historic landscapes managed through innovative partnerships.

Combined with the drastic rate hike, it’s hard to see this as anything other than a ploy to force park closures.

This proposal is currently open for public comments and will be open until November 23.

Comments can be written by anyone. You don’t have to live in America.

Please write a comment saying how much you love the parks or a certain park or why you think this is a bad idea. If you don’t live in America write something about how you travel here to see the parks or how you wish that your country had a park service like America (the American government loves having its ego stroked)

Public comments are the only thing the park service is going to see. They aren’t going to see how many notes this post gets, they’re going to look at that comments page to see how many people they would tick off it they did this. So please, reblog this post but go comment, it’s the only way to let the parks service know how you feel.

#can we just appreciate the fact that the Queen agreed to be a BOND GIRL just for one night?

What I think is totally awesome is that Daniel Craig said that the Queen was supposed to look up straight away, but she improvised the letter writing and completely blanked him, so the awkward standing there was completely realisitic. The Queen ignored James Bond because she was ACTING.

[lazarusgirl-deactivated20181112]

She ain’t called the Queen for nothing, kids.

[fishyandclintbarton]

I remember watching this live and thinking, ‘that’s not the Queen, no way.’ Then she turned around and HOLY FUCK! THAT’S THE ACTUAL QUEEN! 

And that’s why the 2012 Opening Ceremony will forever be my favourite.

[violent-darts]

My favourite thing is that you can tell Craig is, underneath the stoic Bondness, going EEEEE EEEEEE EEEEEE I AM ACTING WITH THE QUEEN EEEEEE I AM BEING BOND WITH THE ACTUAL FUCKING QUEEN NO OTHER BONDS GOT TO DO THIS EEEEE. 

I feel this is also a realistic feeling for Bond in this moment so really excellent method Mr Craig. 

[ekjohnston]

Also, she made them change the helicopter they were going to use because she knew it was the wrong type of helicopter.

ALSO they brought her the script for approval and she was all “Cool, can I play me?” and they were all “Um…yes?” because originally they were going to cast for the part.

The Queen’s knowledge of all things vehicular is always worth a reblog.

STROKE: Remember The 1st Three Letters… S.T..R … My friend sent this to me and encouraged me to post it and spread the word. I agree. If everyone can remember something this simple, we could save some folks. STROKE IDENTIFICATION: During a party, a friend stumbled and took a little fall - she assured everyone that she was fine and just tripped over a brick because of her new shoes. (they offered to call ambulance) They got her cleaned up and got her a new plate of food - while she appeared a bit shaken up, Ingrid went about enjoying herself the rest of the evening. Ingrid’s husband called later telling everyone that his wife had been taken to the hospital - (at 6:00pm , Ingrid passed away.) She had suffered a stroke at the party . Had they known how to identify the signs of a stroke, perhaps Ingrid would be with us today. Some don’t die. They end up in a helpless, hopeless condition instead. It only takes a minute to read this… STROKE IDENTIFICATION: A neurologist says that if he can get to a stroke victim within 3 hours he can totally reverse the effects of a stroke…totally. He said the trick was getting a stroke recognized, diagnosed, and then getting the patient medically cared for within 3 hours, which is tough. RECOGNIZING A STROKE Remember the ‘3’ steps, STR . Read and Learn! Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify. Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster. The stroke victim may suffer severe brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke. Now doctors say a bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple questions : S * Ask the individual to SMILE .. T * = TALK. Ask the person to SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE (Coherently) (eg ‘It is sunny out today’). R * Ask him or her to RAISE BOTH ARMS . If he or she has trouble with ANY ONE of these tasks, call the ambulance and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher. NOTE : Another ‘sign’ of a stroke is 1. Ask the person to ‘stick’ out their tongue. 2. If the tongue is ‘crooked’, if it goes to one side or the other that is also an indication of a stroke. A prominent cardiologist says if everyone who gets this e-mail sends it to 10 people; you can bet that at least one life will be saved. And it could be your own.

[kingpippa]

Reblogging because if I hadn’t have known the signs, my mother wouldn’t be alive today.

There’s another one to identify this and it’s called FAST: Face, Arms, Speech, Time. Face: smiling is not the only thing that can seem off. Look for disappearance of the small line between nose, cheeks and lips (the nasolabial fold) or a drooping corner of the mouth. If someone is unconscious or confused and can’t respond, you can still see these signs.

Arms: indeed, let someone raise their arms. Stretching arms out horizontally is also okay. Look for a difference in strength! Sometimes people can’t raise an arm, OR they can’t keep it up high, and the arm slowly starts drooping.

Speech: let them speak. Listen for incoherences, word rambling (‘wortsalad’, using words that seem completely random. Someone can seem really frustrated!) and slurred speech.

Time: this is the MOST important thing. Time. It has multiple components - the faster you get someone to the hospital, the better, of course. Within 4-6 hours, treatment is relatively ‘easy’ and trust me, those go by fast. Next to that, the longer the symptoms take, the more permanent damage it does, so you have to be FAST. Lastly, a stroke can take on 2 forms: a full blown stroke or a TIA - transient ischemic attack. This one is transient, meaning that it passes on its own (after up to 24h). It might seem like nothing happened, but you should STILL go to a doctor!

Hope that cleared things up a bit.
