Extractions: CIIS Welcomes Diverse Entering Class Henry Villareal , Dean of Enrollment Management, is pleased to announce that for a second consecutive year, CIIS has experienced a significant increase in applications to its academic programs. He attributes this success to a number of factors. Admissions staff visited college campuses and attended graduate fairs; marketing materials were revised; the Website has been enhanced and is attracting many prospective students; the Institute continues its partnerships with Bay Area professional organizations; and CIIS participates in an increasing number of national conferences. The teamwork of the Enrollment Management Team with the assistance of consultant Tom Scheye and the efforts of program directors and faculty have all contributed significantly to the increase. During 1999-2000, CIIS increased applications to its academic programs by 2% over the previous year. This year, the Institute has continued this upward trend by increasing its applications by 19.7% (an increase of 22% from two years ago). This expanded application pool provides a 10% increase in the total number of new students entering CIIS programs this fall. Enrollment reflects a 26% increase over the past two years and will contribute to making this year one of the most prosperous in recent years. The entering class is comprised of over 70% women and 6% international students from countries such as Australia, Romania, China, Italy, Greece, South Africa, and the United Kingdom. Ethnic minority representation accounts for 10% of the new student body. New students range in age from their early twenties to their sixties. The former alma maters of enrolling students include Vanderbilt, NYU, Berkeley, Universidad de los Andes, Keio University, and Cornell.

Extractions: Nairobi, Kenya, 9-13 December 2002 Forestry is governed by the Forest Act of 1997, Chapter 63.01, which has responsibilities in carrying out Secondary forest activities on customary land, forest reserves, plantations and all other matters related to forest management. The National Forest Policy 1996 and Forest Act 1997 are administered by the Department of Forestry, which was established in 1942. Secondary forest management is new in the minds of many Malawians. The diminishing primary forest leads to the formation of secondary forests, if the causes of degradation can be stopped or minimized. In some way secondary forest management is similar to the management of Miombo woodlands and management of pole/fuel wood plantations in Malawi. This paper discusses the similarity between secondary forest management and woodland management practiced in Malawi. Secondary forests help many Malawians in poverty reduction, as it is easier to manage as compared to plantation forestry. They forests are managed for a number of reasons such as soil and water conservation, wildlife habitat, tourist attraction, non- forest products etc.

The move was meant to return rights to the village communities and to strengthen control over the abuse of flora and fauna (poaching). The gamekeeper Tr. Rayong Anak Lapik was arrested in Miri because he prevented the Ogawa Sdn. Bhd. Company from illegally felling protected trees. The tree in question, the illipe nut, has been under total protection in Sarawak since 1990. Its fruit is an important source of income for the Dayak people. The gamekeeper has repeatedly reported the illegal activity of the Ogawa company to the Ministry of Forestry, until now without success. In the morass of corruption

Extractions: study based on the ratio of 1027 recorded groves and number of villages of Rajasthan. This is a preliminary conservative estimate; the actual number may be substantially more than this number. This paper is areview of various studies of sacred landscapes conducted in Rajasthan. Introduction Sacred groves are known under various names in Rajasthan as sacred groves (deora, malvan, deorai, rakhat bani, oran, etc.), sacred corridors (deo ghats), temple forests (mandir van) and sacred gardens (baugh). Sacred Groves For this review, we have classified the sacred areas in to sacred groves, sacred corridors, temple forests, sacred gardens and inhabited groves. Sacred groves in Aravallis and Vindhyas can be classified into three major groups. In the first group we classify groves located near the village and close to a water source. Such groves are also at the top of small hillocks in Aravallis, where people worship Bheruji, Bawsi and Mataji. Khanpa Bheruji, Kukawas Bheruji, Badi Roopan Mata etc. are the example of such sites in Udaipur. In the Vindhyan tract of Kota Bundi, Baran and Jhalawar such groves abound. The second group of groves is dedicated to Lord Mahadeo. Vegetation of the entire watershed is often protected as groves. Sometimes part of the vegetation in a watershed is protected. Large trees and a water source are the main characteristics of these groves. Water sources developed as open and step wells (Bawdi) may be seen at Ubeshwarji, Kamalnath, Gautmeshwasji

The four major languagesTelugu, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalampossess independent scripts and literary histories dating from the pre-Christian Era. Recognized by 8th schedule of constitution of India, they form the basis of the linguistic states of Andhra Pradesh (established as the first Indian linguistic state in 1953), Tamil Nadu, Karnataka (formerly Mysore), and Kerala. Of the Dravidian languages, Tamil has the oldest literature, paralleled in India only by that of Sanskrit. Its phonological and grammatical systems correspond in many points to the ancestral parent language, called Proto-Dravidian.
