BUSINESS ENVIRONMENTAL LEADERSHIP COUNCIL 46 Companies, $2.5 trillion in combined revenue, more than 4.5 million employees WORKING TOGETHER…BECAUSE CLIMATE CHANGE IS SERIOUS BUSINESS Sponsored by: 2011 Insider Knowledge Report Pew Center on Global Climate Change From environmental leader’s publisher Welcome to the inaugural edition of Environmental Leader’s Insider Knowledge Report, which provides corporate lessons learned from environmental and energy management programs. While we’re always amazed at the level of engagement our readers exhibit in attending webinars, downloading white papers, commenting on stories and opening and reading our daily newsletter, we were frankly unprepared for the response we received when we asked readers to provide us with a lesson learned over the past 12 months. Over 600 of you took the time to write paragraphs and articles with your lessons learned, sharing your ups and downs involved in implementing or continuing environmental, energy and sustainability programs. As the responses came flooding in, it quickly became apparent that we were going to have to disappoint a large number of you who took the time to send us your responses. -
What It Is to Be Chinese in Australia Today
Move on, Move on! What it is to be Chinese in Australia today Chek Ling Abstract The Chinese are all right now. On the whole the mainstream population is quite relaxed about the Chinese presence in their midst. That of course was not the case for the 100 years to the end of WWII. And so it should come as no surprise that now and again old scars will resurface. Yet the Chinese have metamorphosed in the psyche of mainstream Australia: honorary whites like Li Cunxin, lionized professionals like Victor Chang, are neon-lit signs of this change. All the same, as a huayi (overseas Chinese) immigrant, my observations over the last 50 years have compelled me to conclude that there is one last gate for the present-day Chinese to walk through, and that it is time for the remaining rearguards of White Australia to consciously remove themselves from that gate. Lambing Flat has lain in my subconscious, ever since I first heard of it some forty years prior. At the time, I would have been hard at it, trying to make a life in Australia, as an engineer, a situation I did not enjoy, having studied engineering by accident and not finding it to my liking after the first week. I had flown into Melbourne, on a Colombo Plan scholarship, a week or two before the lectures started in 1962, from Sarawak, the soon to be abandoned British Colony. Sarawak had been the private fiefdom of three generations of the Brooke family of Great Britain, until the end of the Second World War. -
Praise for Black & White
praise for black & white “Set in Durham, NC, Shiner’s powerful and affecting sixth novel...explores civil rights, race relations and ‘progress’ in that city over the past half century....Shiner weaves Michael’s, Robert’s and Ruth’s stories into a stunning tapestry that captures the hopes, dreams, greed, bigotry, ambitions and betrayals that shaped their destinies and those of our country.” —Publishers Weekly “Lewis Shiner’s latest, Black & White, is killer. Strong charac- ters, suspenseful situations, and tremendous insight. A novel that doesn’t flinch from social issues, and is so gracefully written it makes you want to weep. Should not be missed. Lewis Shiner is the real deal, and this is his finest work.” — Joe R. Lansdale, author of The Bottoms “Shiner, with exhaustive research, uses the story of Hayti and urban renewal as the setting for a compelling novel that is part detective story, part novel of psychological discovery, and, most important, a story about the complex relationships that African-Americans and white people share.” —Cliff Bellamy inThe Durham Herald-Sun “A near-perfect novel—steeped in important political and societal issues, neatly wrapped in the trimmings of a mystery story. With Black & White, Lewis Shiner ascends to a literary realm previously reserved for the likes of Michael Chabon and Jonathan Lethem.” —Rick Klaw in The Austin Chronicle “Black & White, Lewis Shiner’s long-awaited return to the novel, is social realism so urgent and committed as to be an act of witnessing.

Death Al Dente: a Gourmet Detective Mystery’
‘DEATH AL DENTE: A GOURMET DETECTIVE MYSTERY’ Cast Bios DYLAN NEAL (Henry) – Dylan Neal was born in Richmond Hill, Ontario, Canada. Shortly thereafter, his family moved to Oakville, just west of Toronto, where he spent the remainder of his childhood. As a young student, he attended the prep school Appleby College, where he was introduced to the game of squash. Neal quickly fell in love with the sport and was soon playing for Canada at an international level. Towards the end of his teenage years, after many years of traveling across North America on the amateur squash circuit, Neal decided a professional squash career was not for him. By this time, he was attending Blakelock High School, where he was enrolled in the drama program. At the urging of his drama teacher, Neal signed with a Toronto talent agent and began auditioning professionally. It didn’t take long for him to realize this was the direction his career would take. In 1992, he moved to Los Angeles where his career quickly took off. Neal is a well-recognized face on television having had series regular roles in eight American television series including Aaron Spelling’s “Pacific Palisades,” “Hyperion Bay” and “Sabrina, the Teenage Witch.” He has had major recurring roles including Dr. Anthony Ivo in the CW's breakout TV series “Arrow,” and his five-year stint on “Dawson’s Creek” as Pacey’s brother, Doug Witter. He has had the good fortune to work opposite some of the biggest names in Hollywood including a leading role opposite Val Kilmer in the Paramount Pictures thriller The Traveler and a supporting role in all three installments of the Fifty Shades of Grey movie franchise for Universal Pictures. -

A Rose for the Anzac Boys Jackie French
A Rose for the Anzac Boys Jackie French ISBN: 9780732285401 Publication Date: April 2008 RRP: $15.99 Teaching notes written by Christine Sarandis About the novel The ‘War to end all Wars‘, as seen through the eyes of three young women It is 1915. War is being fought on a horrific scale in the trenches of France, but it might as well be a world away from sixteen-year-old New Zealander Midge Macpherson, at school in England learning to be a young lady. But the war is coming closer: Midge's brothers are in the army, and her twin, Tim, is listed as 'missing' in the devastating defeat of the Anzac forces at Gallipoli. Desperate to do their bit and avoid the boredom of school and the restrictions of Society, Midge and her friends Ethel and Anne start a canteen in France, caring for the endless flow of wounded soldiers returning from the front. Midge, recruited by the over-stretched ambulance service, is thrust into carnage and scenes of courage she could never have imagined. And when the war is over, all three girls -- and their Anzac boys as well -- discover that even going 'home' can be both strange and wonderful. Exhaustively researched but written with the lightest of touches, this is Jackie French at her very best. Ages 12+ Author biography Jackie French is a full-time, multi-award-winning writer who lives near Braidwood in the Araluen Valley, NSW. In 2000, Hitler’s Daughter was awarded the CBC Younger Readers’ Award. To the Moon and Back won the Eve Pownall Award in 2005. -

The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School College of Communications COMPETITION AND PROGRAM TYPE DIVERSITY IN THE OVER-THE-AIR TELEVISION INDUSTRY, 1943-2005 A Thesis in Mass Communications by Young Shin Cho © 2007 Young Shin Cho Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2007 The thesis of Young-Shin Cho was reviewed and approved* by the following: Richard Taylor Palmer Chair of Telecommunications Studies and Law Thesis Advisor Chair of Committee Matt Jackson Associate Professor of Communications Krishna Jayakar Associate Professor of Communications Lynette Kvasny Assistant Professor of Information Sciences and Technology John S. Nichols Professor of Communications Associate Dean for Graduates Studies and Research *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ABSTRACT Competition and diversity are touchstones in media policy, but the relationship between them is not clear despite a great number of studies because even studies dealing with their relationship, did not measure the intensity of competition. This paper investigates the relationship between market competition and program type diversity in the over-the-air television industry. Specifically, market competition is divided into intra-network competition and intra-media competition, i.e. terrestrial television vs. cable TV. Also this paper uses a comprehensive model of program types, with 281 program type categories, which have never been used in previous studies. The results show that program type diversity keeps decreasing over time and intra-network competition has a negative effect on program type diversity. Also, intra- network competition is a more important factor on program type diversity than inter- media competition. -
