Extractions: Italy has its wine . Germany has its beer. Russia has its vodka. Scotland has its whisky. Mexico has its tequila . In Belize, we have rum For Belize, rum symbolizes more than an alcoholic beverage; rum is a cultural phenomenon that visitors from around the world associate with the essence of the tropics . Although it is one of the seven countries of Central American nations, Belize blends more into the Caribbean mentality of its island neighbors. This geographic connection has implanted rum into Belizean life. To understand the origins of the spirit, rum lovers must look at the source of its potency. Just as barley and hops constitute the core of beer, sugar cane is rums soul. Although the hearty grass grows well in all tropical climes around the world, it originates in Papau New Guinea. When farmers from Mexico brought their cane growing knowledge to Belize over a century ago, they found that the soils, especially in the northern districts , have the capability to support dense stands of cane . From the field, the cane is pressed in

Papua New Guinea Diving Beyond the Rain Forest papau new guinea s Far-out Live by the beauty ofthe Papua new guinea reefs as within the folds of National Geographic Magazine http://198.66.210.99/OTEMag/articles/PNG.asp
Extractions: Papau New Guinea's Far-out Live-aboards Heavy mist settles on the leaves of the Sago palms as the rain forest awakes for another day. The cassowary sits upon its ostrich-like eggs while the tree kangaroo munches leaves in the palm's shade. The Huli Wig people who live in the highlands of Papua New Guinea prepare to go about their morning rituals. The jungle air is filled with the sounds of the brightly plumed bird-of-paradise. Not far to the east, in the Bismarck Sea, another world is waking. Situated just below the equator in the South Pacific, Papua New Guinea is one of the top dive locations in the world. The best way to experience this underwater world is to dive off live-aboards, which are able to access even the furthest reaches of the islands. Many dive destinations around the world offer sheer walls, drift dives, large pelagics and colorful soft coral growths. But it is Papua New Guinea where the adventure is enhanced by the excitement of diving so far from civilization. Weeks before the trip, I prepared my mind and body for an adventure of a lifetime to wander and dive through one of the last great wilderness areas. In the short period of three weeks, I planned to dive two major areas and trek the highland jungles. A scatter of travel guides and dive magazines lay on the floor all around me, as I tried to visualize what it would be like to immerse myself within a sea of stunning images and constant adventure.

Lloyd died at the age of 86, after spending much of his life promoting surfing in Narragansett. This year's scholarship winners are: Arthur Rodriguez, of Narragansett, a candidate for a master's degree in natural-resources science who is developing a geographic-information-system-based program called Coastal GeoToolbox for the National Park Service.

Ancient Forests, Modern Activism: Communities Fighting Extinction It s an important geographic and ecological region for the southern part of WelchNigeria s tropical rainforest was once as extensive as papau new guinea s. http://www.radioproject.org/archive/2000/0032.html
Extractions: August 9, 2000 #32-00 Ancient Forests, Modern Activism: Communities Fighting Extinction This show's contact information Stephanie Welch: This week on Making Contact. Oliver Enour: In Nigeria the more a place is deforested, the more it is developed. So which is why forest communities begin to feel that development means deforestation. Maria Teresa Guerrero: Illegal tree cutting is like drug trafficking. The ones who get rich from the illegal logging are the saw mills, the companies and people who are connected to the export business. Stephanie Welch: Recent scientific studies from the United Nation's and other leading institutions have confirmed that the world's remaining ancient forests are home to as much as 90% of the earth's land-based species. But ancient forests world-wide continue to disappear at an alarming rate. On this program, we take a look at community efforts to protect ancient forests. I'm Stephanie Welch, your host this week on Making Contact, an international radio program seeking to create connections between people, vital ideas and important information... In the United States, only five percent of ancient forest remains and seventy-six countries worldwide have destroyed all of their ancient forest. Much of that was lost in the last thirty years, coinciding with increased efficiency in logging methods, stepped up lumber and paper use in the United States, Japan, and Europe, in the sale of timber by developing countries to repay debts to international financial institutions, such as the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund. In a ground breaking study from 1997, the Washington, D.C. based environmental think tank, World Resources Institute, found that only one-fifth of the world's original forests remain. Nigel Sizer is the organization's Director of Forest Policy.

Extractions: The continuing adventures of this wild rapscallion. Main Perhaps it is appropriate to write more about the process of getting ready for this trip. So, I am just going to start from the beginning and end when I finish. About a year ago, I started thinking "Boy, I'm sure not having much fun in school anymore; I don't think I want to hop straight into grad school. And I'm getting tired of operating according to some externally imposed agenda, so I don't think I want to start a career just yet either. I want to take some serious time off to do something fun, where I'm living completely and truly for myself and I only have to do the things I want to do." Recalling the slight amount of independent travel I'd done up to that point and how cool it was, as well as factoring in my adventuresome personality, I came up with an idea: a Round-the-World backpacking trip. At first, it was just that: an idea. But the more I thought about it and the more I read and the more I researched it, the more I realized it was something I could actually do. So I started planning. The first thing I needed to do was define the scope of the trip. I initially decided that a year off would be good; I figured I would leave in August 2003 (ha! If I had stuck to this original plan, I would've already been gone. Lucky for you things changed.), come back in August 2004, and then get on with Life As Usual (i.e. grad school, job, pah). But, as with any big plan, things started to change.
