For the river in southwestern Ontario, see Nith River. The River Nith is a river in south-west Scotland; the Nith rises in the Carsphairn hills of East Ayrshire, more between Prickeny Hill and Enoch Hill, 4.4 miles east of Dalmellington. For the majority of its course it flows in a southerly direction through Dumfries and Galloway and into the Solway Firth at Airds point; the territory through which the river flows is called Nithsdale. For estuaries the principle followed; the measurement therefore follows the centre of the river at low tide and the mouth of the river is assumed to be at the coastal high tide mark. In Scotland this does not make a significant difference, except for rivers draining into shallow sloping sands of the Irish Sea and Solway Firth, notably the Nith. At low tide, the sea recedes to such an extent that the length of the Nith is extended by 13 km to 113.8 km, making it Scotland's seventh longest river. The estuary of the River Nith is an internationally important winter feeding site for waders and other wildfowl, is for this reason protected at an international level as part of the Upper Solway Flats and Marshes Ramsar site and Special Protection Area.
The SPA supports the entire Svalbard population of barnacle geese during winter. The area forms part of the Solway Firth Special Area of Conservation, protected due the presence of several priority habitats, as well as populations of sea lamprey and river lamprey. At a national level, the area is a Site of Special Scientific Interest and is within the Caerlaverock National Nature Reserve; the Nith Estuary National Scenic Area recognises the scenic value of the area. It is one of 40 such areas in Scotland, which are defined so as to identify areas of exceptional scenery and to ensure its protection from inappropriate development by restricting certain forms of development; the Nith Estuary NSA covers 14,337 ha in total, consisting of 14,310 ha of land and intertidal sand and mudflats, as well as a further 28 ha, below low water. Management of the NSA is the responsibility of Dumfries and Galloway Council, who have produced a management strategy for the area.

Shattered World is a long-running MUD founded in August 1990, is the first Australian LPMud. Shattered World is set in a medieval fantasy world with economy. "Guilds" are found as an alternative to character classes. Player characters may choose from eight races: humans, archons, galandrians, grmkels and tritons. Shattered World has drawn attention for the success of its "Loans Standard" economic model. In this design, all businesses are player-owned, players may set prices to any level desired, with the only central control imposed being on the amounts banks may loan, yet the system has produced reasonably stable prices since the 1990s. In the wake of Ultima Online's economic crash, this stands out as a remarkable accomplishment; the necessity that the system lack "faucets" that produce money ex nihilo means that newbies must start the game destitute and this raises concerns as to whether this model could be made to scale to larger player-bases. Shattered World developed and operates using the SWLPC programming language, an LPC derivative forked from LPMud 2.4.5.

Galice is an unincorporated community in Josephine County in southern Oregon, United States. It is at the eastern end of the treacherous Bear Camp Road. Galice was settled in 1852 as a mining community, deriving its name from one of its founders, Louis Galice, it was at first called Galiceburg, located on Galice Creek upstream from the Rogue River. Today it sits on the Rogue, downstream from the junction with Galice Creek; the creek was a hot spot for gold prospecting in the 1850s. The community received a post office in 1876, by 1905 had a school, as well. By 1922, the Post Office was moved down the river, it closed in 1927; the school, closed in the late 1940s. Logging replaced mining as the town's principal industry in the mid 20th century, before giving way in turn to the tourist trade. Hellgate Canyon, located nearby, was the site of filming for parts of John Wayne's 1975 film Rooster Cogburn. Today the site holds a small number of tourist businesses
