Excerpt: Findhorn Ecovillage is an experimental architectural community project based at The Park, in Moray, Scotland, near the village of Findhorn. The project's main aim is to demonstrate a sustainable development in environmental, social, and economic terms. Work began in the early 1980s under the auspices of the Findhorn Foundation but now includes a wide diversity of organisations and activities. Numerous different ecological techniques are in use, and the project has won a variety of awards, including the UN-Habitat Best Practice Designation in 1998. A recent independent study concludes that the residents have the lowest ecological footprint of any community measured so far in the industrialised world and is also half of the UK average. Although the project has attracted some controversy, the growing profile of environmental issues such as climate change has led to a degree of mainstream acceptance of its ecological ethos. A Barr...

Chapters: Hubbell Trading Post National Historic Site, Taliesin West, Oracle State Park, Fort Verde State Historic Park, Rosson House, Riordan Mansion State Historic Park. Not illustrated. Excerpt: Hubbell Trading Post National Historic Site - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia When the Navajos were allowed back in 1868, they found their herds decimated, their fields destroyed. Their way of life had been ripped apart and things could never be as they had been before. The Navajos were troubled by economic depression in the late 1800s as a result of the Long Walk. Thus, trade became increasingly important. The Hubbell Trading PostHeavy sandstones from the area were quarried in 1883 to begin construction of this solid building along the southern banks of the Pueblo Colorado Wash. Life at Hubbell Trading Post centered around it. The idea of trading was not new to the Navajos. Native American tribes in the Southwest had traded amongst themselves for centuries. During the four years internment at Bosque Redondo, Navajos were introduced to many new items (e.g., flour, sugar, coffee, baking powder, canned goods, tobacco, tools, cloth, etc.). When the Anglos came to trade with the Navajos the difference was in the products exchanged, and in the changes brought about by the exchanges. Traders like Hubbell supplied these items. Trade with men like Hubbell became increasingly important for the Navajos. The trader was in contact with the world outside the newly created reservation; a world which could supply the staples the Navajos needed to supplement their homegrown products. In exchange for the trader's goods the Navajos traded wool, sheep, and later on rugs, jewelry, baskets, and pottery. It was years before cash was used between trader and Navajos. Old baskets...

Excerpt: Du Jun Du Jun (simplified Chinese : ; traditional Chinese : ; pinyin : Dù J n) is a Chinese businessman and financier with origins in Beijing . He was known for his role as former managing director of the Wall Street investment bank Morgan Stanley in Hong Kong . He was sentenced for a maximum seven years in prison in September 2009 and fined $ 23.3 million (about US $3 million) for his part in Hong Kong 's biggest insider trading case - an "unprecedented" scam a judge said undermined the integrity of the leading Asian financial center. He was convicted on nine counts on 10 September 2009 but said "not guilty" to all charges. He was also convicted of involving his wife in the scam. Career Du offered advice to China 's CITIC Resources, part of the CITIC Group , who wished to buy a Kazakh oil field. He purchased stock from the company in return for this, later selling it and obtaining a profit of $33.4 million. According to the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC), Du purchased CITIC shares at least nine times in the early part of 2007. Upon discovery, he fled to China. Arrest and trial Du was arrested upon his arrival from Beijing at the Hong Kong International Airport on 10 July 2008. He was taken to appear before Garry Tallentire, Principal Magistrate of the Eastern Magistracy, the following day, making his court debut in the process. He went on to appear in the country's District Court on 23 September 2008. The SFC froze $46.5 million throughout their investigation and police assistance also occurred.

Chapters: Vs System, World of Warcraft Trading Card Game, Marvel Legends Showdown, Avatar: the Last Airbender Trading Card Game, Quickstrike, Ani-Mayhem, Bratz Fashion Party Fever Game, Pirates of the Caribbean Trading Card Game, Call of Duty Real-Time Card Game. Excerpt: Ani-Mayhem was an anime -based collectible card game first released in 1996 in the wake of the CCG boom created by the popularity of Magic: The Gathering . Produced by the merchandising arm of Pioneer Animation (now known as Geneon ) and published by Upper Deck , Ani-Mayhem's cards featured images from a variety of anime series and movies. The first two sets were composed of multiple productions and the third and final set was based entirely on the long-running Dragon Ball Z .History Like most CCGs that were created in the post-Magic boom, Ani-Mayhem' s existence was a brief side note in the industry. When the first set, commonly known as Set 0, was published, its rulebook was considered uninformative and incomplete. Later printings of the game attempted to fix this by including a more detailed rulebook that fundamentally altered the way the game played. The Dragon Ball Z expansion, which came in starter decks just as the original set did, included a rule set that rewrote the game for a second time.The idea of the game was to allow an open-ended system that would allow all characters from all anime to interact with one another in the same card game. The result of the game was a very pretty set of cards, but very badly managed game terminology . If you were to print out all the card errata there was, it would be at least three-to-four times as long as the game's rulebook , although it should be noted that this is not a problem limited to Ani-Mayhem by any means. Another problem that hurt the game came in the wake of the ...

Chapters: Auto Union, Ja Prestwich Industries, Star Market, Elgin National Watch Company, Netherlands Trading Society, W.h. Walker and Brothers. Excerpt: Auto Union was an amalgamation of four German automobile manufacturers, established in 1936 in Chemnitz, Saxony, during the Great Depression. The company has evolved into present day Audi, as a subsidiary of Volkswagen Group. Auto Union is best known for its racing team (Auto Union Rennabteilung, based at Horch works in Zwickau/Saxony). The Silver Arrows of these two German teams (Mercedes Benz and Auto Union) dominated not only GP car racing from 1934 onwards, but set records that would take decades to beat. For example, the power levels of the unlimited 1937 models were only equalled in the early 1980s by turbocharged Formula One Grand Prix cars. Auto Union was formed in 1932, the merger of: In August 1928, Rasmussen, the owner of DKW, acquired the majority of shares in Audiwerke AG. In the same year, Rasmussen bought the remains of the US automobile manufacturer Rickenbacker, including the manufacturing equipment for eight cylinder engines. These engines were used in Audi Zwickau, Audi Imperator and Audi Dresden models that were launched in 1929. At the same time, six cylinder and four cylinder (licensed from Peugeot) models were manufactured. In 1932, with all companies still loss making, Audi/DKW, Horch and Wanderer were brought together under the umbrella of communal shareholder company Auto Union. Although all four brands continued to build cars under their own names and brands, the technological development became more and more concentrated, with for instance some Audi models were propelled by Horch or Wanderer built engines.
