Owen Hargreaves was born in Canada but began his professional soccer career playing for German team Bayern Munich. He moved to UK Premiership side Manchester United in May 2007 ending his 10 years as both a youth and senior player for the UEFA Champions Bayern Munich. Coming from a soccer background Owen is the youngest of three sons of former Bolton Wanderer Colin Hargreaves. Having signed a four-year contract with Manchester United for a fee of £17 million Owen made his debut in a friendly against Petersborough. However Owen Hargreaves is not a new name for the England fans. His international career began back in 2000. Although not usually part of the first choice team Owen has represented his country at U19 and U21 level and was selected for the squad for Euro 2004 and the 2006 World Cup. Winning several Man of the Match titles in 2006 for his international appearances and in Jan 07 he was voted England’s Player of the Year. Reserved, affable, and highly articulate, Owen now has a global presence. His epic story is in keeping with the modern history of the game: spanning continents and chronicling the rise of the holding midfield in 21st century soccer. Very little is known about this Canadian born athlete who played for England before making his domestic debut.

Description:
Mechanised thinning operations can be carried out in the forest where skid roads are provided on which harvesters and forwarders can move. In the transition to continuous cover forestry (CCF) it is better to keep a thinner network of skid roads in the forest. Instead of tracks for harvesters and forwarders, these areas can be used for younger generations of trees. Moreover, fewer skid roads in the forest environment make the stand more natural. Fewer skid roads were introduced in this research as an alternative thinning operation with midfield (MF) to the most popular mechanised thinning operation with skid roads (SR). The aim of this paper is to analyse the productivity and economic aspects of thinning operations based on harvesters and forwarders, where there are different distances between skid roads. In both of the operations, harvesters and forwarders were used, but in the MF operation a chainsaw was additionally used to cut trees beyond the reach of the harvester boom. The distances between skid roads in the MF operation were 35-38m, while in the other they were 18-20m. The research was carried out in premature pine stands in a flat terrain in Poland. Bigger productivity and lower costs were found in the MF thinning operations. In the younger 44-year-old stand, the average harvester (Timberjack 770) productivity (in operational time) in the MF operation was 5.87m^3h^-^1 and in the SR operation 4.52m^3h^-^1; forwarding provided by the Vimek 606 6WD achieved a productivity of 5.03 and 4.52m^3h^-^1, respectively. In the older 72-year-old stand, the Timberjack 1270B productivity was 11.53m^3h^-^1 in MF and 8.70m^3h^-^1 in SR; the Timberjack 1010B forwarder achieved 11.22m^3h^-^1 (MF) and 8.84m^3h^-^1(SR). The costs of harvesting and forwarding 1m^3 of wood were lower in the MF operations. In the younger stand, harvesting costs were 5.78@?/m^3 (MF) and 6.72@?/m^3 (SR) while forwarding costs were 1.94 and 2.18@?/m^3 respectively. In the older stand, harvesting costs were 5.58@?/m^3 (MF) and 6.78@?/m^3 (SR); the forwarding costs were 2.65@?/m^3 (MF) and 3.41@?/m^3 (SR). .

Description:
Small marginal habitats in the rural landscape may play an important role for plant species richness as refugias. Little is known how the surrounding landscape and landscape history influence these patterns. I analysed how plant species richness was affected by isolation, habitat area, past and present land use, and if landscape context matters. Plant species occurrence in two different types of small marginal habitats were analysed, road verges and midfield islets. The study was conducted in two different agricultural landscapes in Sweden; one open modern agricultural landscape and one traditional rural landscape, and the results compared. Present and past land use, and landscape change was analysed using aerial photographs and old maps. There was a large grassland reduction more than 50 years ago in the modern landscape, when there still were quite a lot of grasslands left in the traditional landscape. Area and connectivity were more important for plant incidence in small remnant habitats in the modern landscape, compared to the less fragmented, traditional rural landscape. On the other hand there were more grassland specialists, 23% in the traditional landscape compared to 16%. Species richness became higher on midfield islet if grazing was re-introduced. The legacy of surrounding landscape remains in the species pool for a long time, atleast 50 years, even in small grassland fragments. Although small grassland remnants are more sensitive to fragmentation effects compared to larger grasslands, they still encompass a substantial part of the grassland species pool and may be valuable for reconstructing grassland management at a landscape scale. .
