Barry Callaghan and Joe Rosenblatt, poets of perspicacity, pizzazz,
and probity, have been combative, ecstatic compadres for over 40
years, with Callaghan donning an array of chapeaus, the man of
belles lettres and hog flaneur-on-the-hoof from Smooth City, while
Rosenblatt decades ago declared his unconditional allegiance to the
buzzzers, chirpers, and purrers of the natural world, to remain at
peace by his pond, aloof from the human horde. This most unlikely
pair are conjoined by their shared dedication to the Word, to those
rare moments of ascendent insight that are contained in bedrock
language, to disputation about all matters of gravity and
gullibility, and to the sharing of extraordinary paintings and ink
drawings come from their nether surreal and noumenal worlds.
Hoggwash, a convergence by epistle, is a tribute not just to their
enduring friendship but to the life of the imagination itself.
There is no record of correspondence like this, anywhere in the
world.
Where can you find mosses that change landscapes, salamanders with
algae in their skin, and carnivorous plants containing whole
ecosystems in their furled leaves? Where can you find
swamp-trompers, wildlife watchers, marsh managers, and mud-mad
scientists? In wetlands, those complex habitats that play such
vital ecological roles. In Wading Right In, Catherine Owen Koning
and Sharon M. Ashworth take us on a journey into wetlands through
stories from the people who wade in the muck. Traveling alongside
scientists, explorers, and kids with waders and nets, the authors
uncover the inextricably entwined relationships between the water
flows, natural chemistry, soils, flora, and fauna of our floodplain
forests, fens, bogs, marshes, and mires. Tales of mighty efforts to
protect rare orchids, restore salt marshes, and preserve sedge
meadows become portals through which we visit major wetland types
and discover their secrets, while also learning critical ecological
lessons. The United States still loses wetlands at a rate of 13,800
acres per year. Such loss diminishes the water quality of our
rivers and lakes, depletes our capacity for flood control, reduces
our ability to mitigate climate change, and further impoverishes
our biodiversity. Koning and Ashworth's stories captivate the
imagination and inspire the emotional and intellectual connections
we need to commit to protecting these magical and mysterious
places.
This guide is intended as a basic how to for those wishing to use
audio materials in the creation of digital resources. It is not

and the way it affects digital resource creation; dealing with
analogue audio media including records and cassettes; choosing
equipment, and the strengths and weaknesses of various common
computer platforms including Apple Macintosh, PC: Microsoft
Windows, PC: Linux, PC: BeOS; a step by step guide to creating
digital audio files; information on some of the ways sound can be
presented to users, considering downloading sound from the web,
audio streaming, data compression, and presenting sound from
CD-ROM; and the development of a strategy for preserving your
digitised audio, both in terms of backing up the data and of
maintaining support for file formats in the long term.
