Stockbridge School of Agriculture at UMass Amherst celebrates 100 years
In honor of the Stockbridge School of Agriculture's centennial celebration, alumni speak out about the positive impact of their educational experiences and where it has taken them in their lives.
In 1918, a“two-year course in practical agriculture” was officially established at the Massachusetts Agricultural College in Amherst and named after the college’s first professor and later college president Levi Stockbridge.
UMass Amherst, the flagship campus of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, is the largest public research university in New England, distinguished by the excellence and breadth of its academic, research and community programs. Founded in 1863 and home to nearly 30,000 total undergraduate and graduate students, UMass ranks no. 27 in a field of more than 700 public, four-year colleges across the nation, according to the U.S. News & World Report's latest annual college guide.
UMass Amherst stretches across more than 1,400 acres of land in the historic Pioneer Valley of Western Massachusetts, providing a rich cultural environment in a rural setting close to major urban centers - campus sits 90 miles from Boston and 175 miles from New York City. The idyllic college town of Amherst is home to hiking, biking, museums, music, theater, history, food, farms and much more. UMass Amherst also joins a local consortium of five nationally recognized colleges, including Amherst, Hampshire, Mount Holyoke and Smith colleges.

Fallow Deer Hunting in the New Forest
On this episode on Team Wild TV we’re fallow deer stalking in the New Forest with Frederic Hanner.
Welcome to the Great British Shooting on Team Wild TV.
It’s a beautiful October afternoon and we join Frederic Hanner who is out fallow deer stalking with Chris Dewbury. The New Forest is
a stunning location that spans vast fields and magnificent woodlands.
This is the ideal time of the year for fallow deer stalking, the beach nuts have dropped from the trees offering plenty of food, Frederic and Chris are sure to see a lot of animal activity
Frederic and Chris head out and begin to explore this incredible forest. On the way to the destination, Chris points out places of interest where animals have clearly made their markings. Further up the field, they take up position in a high seat that offers a 365-degree view of the surrounding area. This is one of Chris’s favourite spots due to the prime location.
With the New Forest also allowing public access, it is vital that Frederic uses the appropriate equipment. The Sauer Titanium Pro Super Light 2870g moderator is ideal for this type of hunting conditions. This will allow their stalking to go on without causing a disturbance to anyone else that could be in the area
As they monitor the nearby fields, Frederic spots five fallow deer in the distance. This is a promising sign that something will approach the clearing and offer a safe, clean shot.
It isn’t long until a huge fallow buck passes the treeline and enters the field. Frederic waits passionately until he has the ideal shot. Gently squeezing the trigger, the shot his perfectly and the buck is ethically dispatched
Frederic and Chris examine the buck. It has been another epic hunting adventure out in the Great British countryside.

The New Forest, places to visit here, Burley, Hampshire, England. (16 )
The New Forest National Park lies within the county of Hampshire, on the south-central coast of England, and is Britain's smallest National Park. Some typical New Forest National Park scenes The Park is predominantly occupied by an area called the New Forest, about 150 square miles in size and once a royal hunting ground for King William I and his noblemen, in the 12th century AD.
The New Forest is an area of southern England which includes one of the largest remaining tracts of unenclosed pasture land, heath land and forest in the heavily-populated south east of England. It covers south-west Hampshire and extends into south-east Wiltshire and towards east Dorset. The name also refers to the New Forest National Park which has similar boundaries. Additionally the New Forest local government district is a subdivision of Hampshire which covers most of the Forest, and some nearby areas although it is no longer the planning authority for the National Park. There are many villages dotted around the area, and several small towns in the Forest and around its edges.
Like much of England, the site of the New Forest was once deciduous woodland, re colonised by birch and eventually beech and oak following the withdrawal of the ice sheets starting around 12,000 years ago. Some areas were cleared for cultivation from the Bronze Age onwards; the poor quality of the soil in the New Forest meant that the cleared areas turned into heath land waste, which may have been used even then as grazing land for horse's. There was still a significant amount of woodland in this part of Britain, but this was gradually reduced, particularly towards the end of the Middle Iron Age around 250--100 BC, and the 12th and 13th centuries, and of this all that remains today is the New Forest.
There are around 250 round barrows within its boundaries, and scattered boiling mounds, and it also includes about 150 scheduled ancient monuments. One such barrow in particular may represent the only known inhumation burial of the Early Iron Age and the only known Hallstatt burial in Britain; unfortunately, the acidity of the soil means that bone very rarely survives.
Barton-on-Sea There is a good safe beach in this seaside village, which has outstanding views across the Solent to the Isle of Wight.
Beaulieu Slow down for donkeys and ponies strolling around the narrow streets of this ancient village, best known for the National Motor Museum and Palace House, home to the Montagu family. The village, with tiny shops and a pub, is built around a wide tidal river, attracting all kinds of wildlife.
Buckler's Hard The 18th century maritime village of Buckler's Hard sits on the western bank of the Beaulieu River, a couple of miles south of Beaulieu village, and is a pleasant place to rest a couple of hours while learning about the important role that Buckler's Hard played in Britain's shipbuilding history. Boldre Small pretty village near Lymington with narrow lanes and a well-preserved 800 year old church.
Bramshaw Piper's Wait, the highest point in The New Forest is near Bramshaw. In the village, visitors can enjoy the church, built over the centuries in a variety of architectural styles.
Brockenhurst There is a busy railway station here, the main bus/train interchange in The New Forest. The village itself is peaceful with a pretty green often full of grazing ponies and cattle. Many of the main walks and cycle trails through The New Forest start in Brockenhurst, which is set in some of the loveliest scenery in the district.
Burley Legends concerning dragons, witches and smuggling abound in this traditional village. Today you can go riding on horseback, in a horse-drawn wagon or on cycles. There are also plenty of shops and tearooms here too.

Celebrating restoration of New England's Housatonic River from Source to Sound
Experience the Source to Sound paddle trip, a Housatonic River adventure to celebrate the beauty of New England's Housatonic River.
The adventure, coordinated by the Housatonic Valley Association and other groups, provides educational, historical and cultural programs along the way through Massachusetts and Connecticut.
The Source to Sound also celebrates the work that has made this river once again accessible to its residents. For more than 40 years, toxic chemicals seeped into the river, contaminating the water and sediment. The hazards reached riverbanks, floodplains, wildlife and even people.
The guardians for these natural resources settled with General Electric for $15 million, which has funded the restoration of these treasured resources. The money secured by the federal restoration program has given partners the voice and the tools they need to protect their river.
Police officer SHOT during gunfight with suspect
Footage from a police helicopter shows a shootout between Texas State Troopers and a suspect in San Antonio, Texas, on Sunday, February 18.

The Texas State Troopers Association said that the suspect “emerged from his vehicle, produced a gun and forced the trooper to exchange gunfire with him.”
Local media reported that authorities said Montelongo was brought to Brooke Army Medical Centre and was pronounced dead a day later. A spokesman for the DPS said the Trooper was “doing well.”
