OCTOBER FEBRUARY 2010 Jlgmonthly VOLUME 3, NUMBER 4 OCTOBER FEBRUARY 2010 jlgmonthly Four-Letter Words Does the word jerk belong in a young picture book? At what age levels are s** t and f** k appropriate? These are questions I have had to ask since I first began working at JLG back in 1991. At the time we had a strict policy against profanity in our selections. These days we couldn’t maintain a list of the highest-quality books if Susan Marston, JLG Editorial Director we were as strict about excluding books with “language issues.” However, we still hear from customers that it is something they grapple with, so we continue to pay attention. “Language” can be a consideration in determining the appropriate level for a book, or even whether to include a book on our list at all. Children’s authors use jarring words for many valid reasons. Still, there do seem to be times when the inclusion of potentially offensive words seems incidental or nonessential. Publishers often ask our reasons when we reject their books. When it is a question of what we perceive to be unsuitable language, it can break my heart, especially if it is a book I long to share. Sometimes publishers say “that’s too bad” in an understanding way and move on. But in some cases, they and their authors are willing to address our concerns and make changes. While I am strongly opposed to censorship, I am grateful for this receptiveness. Does that make me a hypocrite?

I get wonderful feedback about Bear. Parents often buy his stories for two-year-olds, and when they get a bit older, children then like to read them to their younger siblings. So, the books work as early readers as well as straightforward, rhyming stories for little ones. The next step seemed to be to off er the Bear books as bilingual readers.

  • Comprehensive Social Assessment: an Essential Instrument for Environmental Policy-Making
    Comprehensive social assessment: An essential instrument for environmental policy-making F. Archibugi Chapter 10 of the book: F.Archibugi and P.Nijkamp, eds. Economy and Ecology: Towards Sustainable Development, Dordrecht: Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1989. Prologue The use of Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) has become increasingly widespread during the last few decades, because environmental conditions have been identified as critical factors in determining our wellbeing and quality of life. The objective of this chapter is to underline that EIA is reliable and useful only if developed within a comprehensive approach to planning and evaluation. The conclusion of our analysis recommends the incorporation of EIA in a more general process of evaluation and decision, which guarantees that environmental policy decisions are evaluated within the complexity and comprehensiveness of development planning. In the present chapter a number of general considerations on the importance of comprehensive planning procedures will be developed in order to underline the indispensability of these procedures in turning environmental policy from a "negative" strategy into a "positive" one. Comprehensive Assessment and Environmental Impact Assessment The EIAs which have been developed until now are usually linked to single projects. Their reliability is often questionable, which is mainly due to the paucity of national parameters. (1) Analogy with cost-benefit analysis experience The limited reliability of EIAs runs parallel to Cost-Benefit Analyses (CBA)

    Lookbook PE / SS ʹ015 ITALIANO 6219 La 14esima collezione Stone Island Shadow Project è come un miraggio all’orizzonte, come una foschia dovuta al calore dove virano e si rifrangono le prospettive. Vibrante e sgra- nata, materica e degradata, come la freschezza, l’intensità della gioventù che man mano si stempera quando esposta agli elementi. Lo Zeffiro, il vento leggero che soffia da ponente, ispira colori saturi poi diluiti e arricchiti da tonalità metalliche tramite trattamenti a capo finito. I materiali hanno un atteggia- mento vissuto pur mantenendo il piglio proprio dei tessuti per- formanti. Le forme, comode di derivazione snowboard, sciolte degli atteggiamenti street si fondono con una sartorialità rilassata e un aspetto preppy diffuso.
