The Magic of the Scottish LinksAuthor is Jonathan Warrender Publisher: Alexander Meddowes Fine Art Broker (2005)Paperback7.75 x 11.75 inchesA links is the oldest style of golf course, first developed in Scotland. The word "links" comes via the Scots language from the Old English word hlinc: "rising ground, ridge" and refers to an area of coastal sand dunes and sometimes to open parkland. It can be treated as singular even though it has an "s" at the end and occurs in place names that precede the development of golf, for example Lundin Links, Fife. It also retains this more general meaning in standard Scottish English. Links land is typically characterised by dunes, an undulating surface, and a sandy soil unsuitable for arable farming but which readily supports various indigenous browntop bent and red fescue grasses. Together, the soil and grasses result in the firm turf associated with links courses and the 'running' game. The hard surface typical of the links-style course allows balls to "run" out… Read More

words & music by Melody Greenarranged by John LeeSparrow Choral SeriesAs recorded by 2nd Chapter of Acts on Sparrow RecordsApril Music Inc., New York 1977Hal Leonard Publishing CorporationPaperback6 3/4 x 10 1/2 inches, 12 pageswith lyricsMelody Green was born in Hollywood. She grew up in Venice in a funky little apartment facing an alley, called Speedway. With no safe place to play, and the beach just a few hundred feet away, the sand became her only playground. As a young girl who always watched the shifting tides, the star patterns, and the sunsets, Melody realized there must be a Creator for such perpetual beauty, universal order, and symmetry to exist.Melody is probably most loved for the songs she's written. "There Is A Redeemer" is found in church hymn books around the world, and reports of it being sung in villages in Africa and Asia are plentiful. She has also composed many other standards including, "Make My Life A Prayer To You," "You Are The One," Rushing Wind," and "The Lord Is… Read More

A Man Without a Country by Kurt Vonnegut

Publication Date: 1/16/2007
Pages: 145

Paperback
5.1 x 8 inches, 146 pages

In his first book since 1999, it's just like old times as Vonnegut makes with the deeply black humor in this collection of articles written over the last five years, many from the alternative magazine In These Times. But the pessimistic wisecracks may be wearing thin; the conversational tone of the pieces is like Garrison Keillor with a savage undercurrent. Still, the schtick works fine most of the time, underscored by hand-lettered aphorisms between chapters. Some essays suffer from authorial self-indulgence, however, like taking a dull story about mailing a manuscript and stretching it to interminable lengths. Vonnegut reserves special bile for the "psychopathic personalities" (i.e., "smart, personable people who have no… Read More

World Wildlife Federation - WWF
The Nature Conservancy
The leading response to environmental challenges has been the creation of protected areas, yet they constantly are jeopardized by problems of staffing, sustainable finance and local development. Documentation of alternative strategies that could enhance success of protected area management is still at a nascent stage. To evaluate such strategies we built an on-line questionnaire to be answered by all Federal protected areas in Brazil. Just 12.8% confirmed and explained the strategies sought. Partnerships seemed to underpin most strategies cited. We believe that the low percentage of managers seeking alternative strategies is a result of the increasing lack of a strong, coherent and comprehensive policy for protected areas in Brazil, which will only change if a new breakthrough on conservation policy is made.

Natural resources are under pressure worldwide; loss of biodiversity stands out (Pimm et al., 2014). The leading response to such… Read More
