Walking Over
The dogs are approaching from far below us and from the distance something looks odd. ... No longer having to navigate every step our minds relax and our bodies find a rhythm....As we slip and slide leaving long streaming boot paths in the quickly setting snow, I imagine our surroundings in another two months: ... The steep slope we are descending provides a commanding view of the forest below us and in the distance we suddenly hear the dogs yelping, squealing and barking....

Hair Salons “Greening” Up
EarthTalk ® From the Editors of E/The Environmental Magazine Dear EarthTalk : As I understand it, hair salons are pretty toxic enterprises on many counts. Are there any efforts underway to green up that industry? – Paula Howe, San Francisco, CA Hair salons have long been criticized for the pollution they generate. Traditional hair dyes and many shampoos contain harmful synthetic chemicals that are routinely used on customers’ scalps—and then washed down the drain where

The Jerboa – The Miniature Kangaroo of the Rodent World Authored by Rodney Southern in Nature and WildlifePublished on 09-25-2009
There is a fascinating rodent that can be found in the deserts and dry areas of Africa and Asia called the jerboa. This tiny little rodent seems much more like an itty bitty kangaroo, and has some rather incredible talents of it’s own.The jerboa is first and foremost a rodent, but it does not act like any rat or mouse. The jerboa is actually about six inches or so, and their tails are longer than their bodies at eleven inches. When you add in the strong hind legs that allow the jerboa to lea

Hot Weather Towns
Colombia, land of winding roads; you go among the scenic Andes only by means of twists and turns. When you are not descending, you are ascending. This does not hold in all the country of course; it has long, flat regions, some of which you can only navigate by boat, but it is a big country, and the obstacle of the mountains makes the distance that much longer. The endless, curving roads have been laid all over the indifferent slopes connecting concentrations of population. One such concentra

Let’s go on a little flight of fancy. Let’s go car shopping. Now usually when you go car shopping you start with a budget in mind, don’t you? You go from dealer to dealer, trying to get the best deal that you can, but what really sells you in the end? Is it the value? Is it the price? Is it the features?

Hoag’s Castle Burned 35 Years Ago
Unique landmark in Wakefield, Massachusetts I never got to see the castle before it burned down 35 years ago next month. But as a kid attending the Greenwood School, I certainly heard about it. “Have you seen the castle?” was a frequent schoolyard inquiry. In that typical childhood way, the goal of the questioner was, as much as anything, to prove that he knew something before you did – as if being the first to know about the castle was second only to having built it. The real builde
