☆ Man Who Diverted National Park River to Ease Boat Access on Lake Michigan Convicted of Misdemeanors

EMPIRE, Mich. (AP) — A man accused of diverting a national park river to ease boat access to Lake Michigan has been convicted of two misdemeanors. Andrew Howard of Frankfort was found guilty of tampering and vandalism Wednesday during a brief trial in front of U.S. Magistrate Judge Ray Kent. In August 2022, a National Park Service ranger witnessed Howard digging with a shovel so the Platte River in the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore would be diverted into one of the Great Lakes, prosecutors said in a court filing. U.S. Attorney Mark Totten said Howard had a policy dispute with the National Park Service and “took matters into his own hands.”The Park Service no longer dredges the Platte River. As a result, sediment and sand build up, reducing the ability to get boats to Lake Michigan.

☆ A Shamrock partner explains how the $4 billion investment firm stays on top of media and entertainment, where 'every day there's a disruption'

"Every day there's a new article or a story or disruption taking place," Andrew Howard, a partner at Shamrock Capital, told Insider this summer about the firm's media strategies. Shamrock, which is based in California, pursues strategies in the private markets, mainly through equity or debt-based investments. Founded as a family office in the late 1970s for members of the Disney family, the firm has blossomed into an institutional investor exclusively focused on media, entertainment, and communications. Howard likened the speed of today's transformations to the dot-com arms race that defined the Internet landscape two decades ago. "We're coaching kids whose parents are running major studios and companies within media and entertainment," Howard said.
