The case of the eastern cougar
Article Abstract:
The cougar's home was eastern North America until the colonists arrived. Unfamiliar with the animal, the colonists began a centuries-long effort at its eradication. Logging devastated cougar habitat in the early part of the 20th century and hunters made the white-tailed deer, the animals' favorite prey, almost extinct. Many people are interested in pet cougars and owners may let them loose into the wild once they grow up, when they are no longer so endearing. However, human tolerance will have to increase for the population of wild cougar to build up.

Initial Reaction to TOPP
Article Abstract:
Association of Certified Accountants and the Institute of Cost and Management Accountants (ICMA) are concerned on the English Institute's (ICAEW) Training Outside Public Practice (TOPP). TOPP will have an impact on ICMA. It is a training in one discipline, exam in another and befit for nothing. ICAEW's insistance in 'consistent sponsorship' is difficult in practice. Unilever is one of the companies which has expressed an interest in training accountancy students. They are confident of giving as good a training as any other firm.

In the beginning was the word - and they've been arguing about it ever since: Everett Fox defends his new translation of the Bible and three scholars respond
Article Abstract:
Fox's new translation of the Bible aims to allow the reader to become immersed in the word play, rhythm, syntex and overall structure of the Hebrew from which most texts are translated. Critics of his worker find it an excellent reflection of the Hebrew although some problems exist.
