Kapitel: Heather Nova, Bermudadreieck, L.f. Wade International Airport, Saint George's, Hamilton, Bermudas, Freibeuter Des Todes, Flagge Bermudas, Bermuda-Dollar, Wappen Bermudas, Bermuda-Konferenz, Anglican Church of Bermuda, Kindley. Aus Wikipedia. Nicht dargestellt. Auszug: Heather Nova, (born Heather Allison Frith, on July 6, 1967 in Bermuda) is a singer-songwriter and poet. She has released seven full-length albums and has found lasting success in Germany where two of her albums South and Storm have made their way into the Top-5 of German official album chart. Heather Nova was born on July 6, 1967 in her home country, Bermuda. Her mother is Canadian, and her father is a native Bermudian. Nova spent most of her childhood with her family (including one sister, television reporter Susannah, and one brother, reggae singer Mishka) on a 40 ft (12 m) boat built by her father, where the Friths spent most of 1970s and part of the 1980s, sailing throughout the Atlantic and Caribbean waters and coasts. Nova started playing guitar and violin at an early age, writing her first song when she was 12. Her family relocated to New England where she attended the Putney School in Putney, Vermont. Following her graduation in 1983, Nova enrolled at the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD), where she majored in film in 1989. She also sat in on poetry classes and wrote music to go with her student films. Later, she would forego film study to focus on creating music. After graduating from RISD, Nova briefly relocated to New York City (where she unsuccessfully tried to interest some major labels in a demo), before moving to London, England, a place she called home for twelve years (she already had British citizenship due to her Bermudian origins). In 1990, she released her first recording, Heather Frith, an EP; she had not yet changed her name. The name change came a year or so later, in an effort to create a name with more buzz.

Excerpt: South is Heather Nova's sixth album. It spawned the U.S. single "Virus of the Mind". For this album, Nova also recorded a contemporary-styled cover of the standard "Gloomy Sunday", a song originally made popular by Billie Holiday. In retrospect, Nova found the album to be far too polished and not entirely to her liking. She declared that her next album, Storm, would be bare and would be the album she's always wanted to make. There were two versions of this album; the original release on December 11, 2001, and an American release on May 21, 2002. The U.S. release contained one extra track, "Welcome", which also appeared in the 2005 album Redbird. All songs by Heather Nova, except where noted. B Sides ...http://booksllc.net/?id=2663013 ...

Jones (born December 16, 1959 in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada) is a Canadian curler and television personality. She is best known is the skip of two women's world championship teams and six Tournament of Hearts Canadian women's championships, including an unprecedented four titles in a row. She also serves as a reporter and weather presenter for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, and as a curling commentator for the National Broadcasting Company in the United States, particularly during the Winter Olympics. From a family of curlers, at age 14, she joined the Mayflower Curling Club. At an early age, she gained success in competitive curling and was only 19 years old when she won the first of her 16 Nova Scotia curling titles that led to competing in the Canadian championships where she finished second. Jones graduated from Dalhousie University and went to work in broadcasting in her native Halifax. In 1982 she became the youngest ever to win the Canadian women's curling championship but career, marriage and a family slowed her down. She joined CBC Television as a reporter in 1986 and went on to cover numerous summer and winter Olympic Games.

Thoughtful look at Earth's future
Mindless growth, proceeding without regard to the consequences to the planet, comes in for scrutiny in "Life, Money and Illusion: Living on Earth as if we want to stay."What author Mike Nickerson lays out as an alternative is a rethinking of priorities, new policies and a general restructuring that preserves the Earth's health but still provides for its human and other inhabitants. These are not simple changes, like deciding to recycle; these are significant changes in thinking, tax codes, and political, economic and social policies. The book is intended for anyone concerned about the future of the planet and wondering what needs to be done to keep it healthy well into the future.

A pick for business, economics, and social issues libraries alike
LIFE, MONEY AND ILLUSION: LIVING ON EARTH AS IF WE WANT TO STAY is a pick for business, economics, and social issues libraries alike, providing an updated edition inspired by the realities of living on a finite planet with an economic structure wired for growth.
