Book Synopsis Forever Changing Landscapes by : Esther Hinds
Download or read book Forever Changing Landscapes written by Esther Hinds and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2017-11-27 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a young girl growing up on the small island of Barbados, I often wondered what existed beyond the vision of the clear and beautiful ocean so readily accessible to one living on such an island. It was the decision governing my father's need to find a more viable source of finance for the supporting of his growing family that led to our immigrating to the United States of America. Crossing the ocean to this vast nation opened the door to a series of educational opportunities, allowing for the discovery of my musical gifts as a singer. The development of those gifts parlayed into the adventure of traveling from nation to nation, disclosing a myriad of varying peoples and their cultures. The landscapes viewed and experienced were not only of the terrain as it presented itself in foreign lands but also of the musical, emotional, and spiritual exposure, which grew and expanded as I developed as an artist and as a person. Having been reared as a Christian provided the foundation that served as a solid underpinning in the world in which I would now have to navigate. Forever changing were the choices and chances I would encounter. Relying on the non-changing grace of God allowed for my ultimate success in managing the many layers of the challenges presented in developing a career and a family, managing what would be gained and what would be lost. Forever Changing Landscapes is a personal view through the lens of my memory over and through the many oceans crossed, the nations visited, as well as the myriad of musical, emotional, and spiritual mountains traversed through the years of my life.

Download or read book Landscape Logic written by Allan Curtis and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2012-04-11 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2005, researchers from four Australian universities and CSIRO joined forces with environmental managers from three state agencies and six regional catchment management authorities to answer the question: 'Can we detect the influence of public environmental programs on the condition of our natural resources?' This was prompted by a series of national audits of Australia's environmental programs that could find no evidence of public investment improving the condition of waterways, soils and native vegetation, despite major public programs investing more than $4.2 billion in environmental repair over the last 20 years. Landscape Logic describes how this collaboration of 42 researchers and environmental managers went about the research. It describes what they found and what they learned about the challenge of attributing cause to environmental change. While public programs had been responsible for increase in vegetation extent, there was less evidence for improvement in vegetation condition and water quality. In many cases critical levels of intervention had not been reached, interventions were not sufficiently mature to have had any measurable impact, monitoring had not been designed to match the spatial and temporal scales of the interventions, and interventions lacked sufficiently clear objectives and metrics to ever be detectable. In the process, however, new knowledge emerged on disturbance thresholds in river condition, diagnosing sources of pollution in river systems, and the application and uptake of state-and-transition and Bayesian network models to environmental management. The findings discussed in this book provide valuable messages for environmental managers, land managers, researchers and policy makers.

Book excerpt: Explore the Boundaries of Expression Delve into the intricate dance of free speech in the United States. "Walls of Words" is not just another book about the First Amendment; it is a deep dive into the intricate boundaries that define our freedom of expression. With a rich blend of history, jurisprudence, and real-world examples, this book paints a comprehensive picture of how speech has been shaped, celebrated, and suppressed since the founding of America. Ever wondered about the intentions of the Founding Fathers when they penned the First Amendment? Or how landmark cases over the centuries have redefined its interpretation? From the early American media's struggles with censorship to the rise of digital platforms, discover the evolution of speech boundaries and the forces that have constantly sought to redraw them. But it doesn't stop there. In today's digital age, speech boundaries are more complex than ever. Dive into the thorny issues of cyberbullying, doxing, and the rise of disinformation. Understand when speech crosses the line into crime, from threats and extortion to false advertising and copyright infringement. And for those moments when you find yourself walking on the eggshells of culturally sensitive speech, this book offers guidance on navigating those murky waters. Moreover, in a world where the line between private censorship and public responsibility is increasingly blurred, "Walls of Words" challenges readers to reflect on the ethical implications of speech boundaries. How do we balance tolerance with limitation? What role do private entities play in shaping the discourse? And as technology continues to transform the landscape of expression, what challenges lie ahead for the future of free speech? Whether you're a student, a legal enthusiast, or just a curious mind, "Walls of Words" promises an enlightening journey through the ever-evolving wall of words that defines our collective responsibility to uphold the spirit of free speech. Embark on this journey and redefine your understanding of the power of words.

Book Synopsis Cities and the Shaping of Memory in the Ancient Near East by : Ömür Harmanşah
Download or read book Cities and the Shaping of Memory in the Ancient Near East written by Ömür Harmanşah and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-03-18 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates the founding and building of cities in the ancient Near East. The creation of new cities was imagined as an ideological project or a divine intervention in the political narratives and mythologies of Near Eastern cultures, often masking the complex processes behind the social production of urban space. During the Early Iron Age (c.1200–850 BCE), Assyrian and Syro-Hittite rulers developed a highly performative official discourse that revolved around constructing cities, cultivating landscapes, building watercourses, erecting monuments and initiating public festivals. This volume combs through archaeological, epigraphic, visual, architectural and environmental evidence to tell the story of a region from the perspective of its spatial practices, landscape history and architectural technologies. It argues that the cultural processes of the making of urban spaces shape collective memory and identity as well as sites of political performance and state spectacle.
