North American Survivors explores seven species of mammals that existed in the North American continent, lived through the last Ice Age, and endured to the present. It reveals the ancestral origins of the animals, the opinions that humans held towards them, and the way they affected the biodiversity in the environment in which they live. North American Survivors considers the way these animals survived so that humans may learn and integrate the animals'' resilience in their own lives to continue through the ongoing climate change crisis. North American Survivors also gives an overview of what the year of the particular animal looks like: when mating and birthing season begins, and when a particular animal grows independent. The animals discussed include: White--tailed deer Pronghorn Cougars Collared javelina or peccary Black bears and others. Complete with a glossary and a list for further reading, North American Survivors is the book to introduce readers to the adaptability of animals and what helps them survive today.

It's been four years since Dave Harlow's wife, Helen, passed away. Since then, he has renewed his passion for researching his family roots. He uses his magnifying glass to stare into each and every one of the hundreds of family pictures-the old housing, clothes, and hairstyles. From horse-drawn carriages to old cars, this was a time gone by. He is now focused on the picture of a family of nine. His great-great-great-grandfather and grandmother, along with their children, standing and sitting on the lawn in front of a big house having a group picture taken. The closer he looks at the picture, the more he studies each detail, the more he can feel himself being pulled into the picture, becoming part of the scene. He now finds himself standing behind the photographer taking a picture of the family he was just looking at through the magnifying glass. He moves around to the front of the camera and is now gazing at the family he only a second ago had seen in a picture he was holding. This dream reality will only last a day as he wakes up at his desk, staring at the picture of the family of eight. Was it a dream, or did it really happen? He seeks medical and mental help only to find all is well. Could he have just dreamed it? Dave returns home to again start looking through multiple pictures. Could it happen again, and where will he go next? Join Dave as he sees his father purchase his first new 1928 automobile and watches Mathew Brady take a photograph of Abe Lincoln and General McClellan. Finally, Dave will explore New York at the turn of the early nineteen hundreds. Are any of these events actually happening, or are they a dream?

"A full colour natural history of the North American black bear, its evolution, biology, environment, history, human interaction, conservation and protection--with maps and photographs."--

THE CARD PRINCESS Dave Taylor

Dave Taylor-Jones recalls his experiences of growing up near Watford, just outside of London in this absorbing memoir of his life in the 50s and 60s. Tragically, he lost his father in the Second World War, an event which forms the foundation for the book which explores his life as a typical working-class boy in the post-war years and captures the sense of security and freedom of those times. Music lessons, trainspotting, paper rounds, building tree houses and bikes and adventures in the Cubs and Scouts, were all part of his childhood before going on to Secondary Modern School in Watford and starting work in Paddington. Life in the Suburbs is a humorous and touching account which will strike a chord with people who lived through those times, but will also appeal to younger generations curious about their grandparents’ lives.

In 1966, Dave Taylor-Jones met a French girl in Paris who became one of the most influential people in his life. Christine and her family introduced him to the French lifestyle, food, and their unique way of looking at the world. Through them, he learnt to speak French (almost), bought a flat near Nice, found a job in Monaco and moved to live in France, all of which helped him to dispel the stereotypical image that some British people have of the French. Another Side of France records some of his experiences of French life in a humourous manner, and contains both essays and stories, presented like two sides of a coin, alternating slices of fiction with his life experiences. The fiction includes ghost stories, with the haunting of Nice’s Terra Amata Museum, the Parisian Metro, and a local medieval chateau. There are also stories are about working in Monaco, the joys of air travel, auctions of Impressionist masters and knowing your own limits of compassion. Dave’s essays capture how he has tried to get to grips with the French medical system, country life in the foothills of the Alpes-Maritimes, wine, beekeeping and his love of dogs and birds.

Defining moments-we all have them. All of us can look back and remember moments when events occurred and decisions were made that drastically altered the course of our lives. Defining moments shape our perception of the world, and they become major forces in defining who we are and what we are capable of. They become the scales by which we measure our worth. Our reality is anchored in our interpretation of those moments, and how we respond to them often determines how we respond in life. Mankind's fall from glory in the garden of Eden was a catastrophic event of epic proportions, one of the great defining moments in human history. It altered the course of humanity and redefined who we were at our core. Before the Fall, we were sons and daughters in paradise; after the Fall, we were orphans and strangers in exile. Our interpretation of that one event has shaped our self-identity. And our interpretation of God's words and actions in the midst of the event has shaped our perception of who he is and the nature of his heart toward us. Redefined chronicles a journey back to the time of the orphaning of the human heart. It dares to reinterpret the story in the light of the smile of Abba God. It offers the hope that if Adam's darkest moment can be redefined, then our darkest moments can as well. But the ramifications are huge. For the life of Christ and his work on the cross will never look the same to us again. And our excuses for remaining powerless against the enemy will be lost forever.

MacユーザむけのUnixコマンド解説書

John Sculley In the short history of personal computing, the task of the software programmer has been one of the least recognized-but one of the most significant-in the industry. In addition to defining the prob lems, and presenting the solutions, the software programmer is con fronted with the challenge of having to predict what combination of ideas and technologies will move the industry forward in the most compelling way. Even though we've seen the development of tremendous applications in a surprisingly short period of time, the most difficult problems often surface when we try to elevate a suc cessful local idea to the international arena. In the case of Apple Computer, these challenges become especially profound when you consider that Apple sells Macintosh not just in the United States, but in Japan, China, the Middle East, Africa, East ern Europe, and even to the United Nations itself. Of course, this means that the personal computer must work everywhere around the world. But more significantly, it also means that the software must reflect the uniqueness of a given culture, its language, morals, and even its sense of humor. To step away from a narrowly-defined, nationally-based paradigm for software development, programmers, management, and entire corporations must learn to recognize what elements of an interface, problem solving technique, documentation illustration, package de sign, and advertisement are local, and which elements are appro priate for global markets.
