Green Urbanism Down Under by Timothy Beatley,Peter Newman Pdf
In this immensely practical book, Timothy Beatley sets out to answer a simple question: what can Americans learn from Australians about “greening” city life? Green Urbanism Down Under reports on the current state of “sustainability practice” in Australia and the many lessons that U.S. residents can learn from the best Australian programs and initiatives. Australia is similar to the United States in many ways, especially in its “energy footprint.” For example, Australia’s per capita greenhouse gas emissions are second only to those of the United States. A similar percentage of its residents live in cities (85 percent in Australia vs. 80 percent in the United States). And it suffers from parallel problems of air and water pollution, a national dependence on automobiles, and high fossil fuel consumption. Still, after traveling throughout Australia, Beatley finds that there are myriad creative responses to these problems—and that they offer instructive examples for the United States. Green Urbanism Down Under is a very readable collection of solutions. Although many of these innovative solutions are little-known outside Australia, they all present practical possibilities for U.S. cities. Beatley describes “green transport” projects, “city farms,” renewable energy plans, green living programs, and much more. He considers a host of public policy initiatives and scrutinizes regional and state planning efforts for answers. In closing, he shares his impressions about how Australian results might be applied to U.S. problems. This is a unique book: hopeful, constructive, and filled with ideas that have been proven to work. It is a “must read” for anyone who cares about the future of American cities.

In Deception Down Under, an American student pilot enrolled in a flight training program on the Space Coast of Florida, is lured into smuggling drugs into the country for a powerful Columbian cocaine cartel out of Miami. This young man went from a young naïve college student, studying aviation management to a full-time pilot for a Columbian cocaine cartel which paid him very well to smuggle drugs into the U.S. from the Bahamas in a twin-engine airplane. The initial glamour and power of the drug world is deceiving until he was arrested and set up to look like a witness against the cartel by a testimony fabricated by his co-defendant. He was lured into doing this in 1984 in Florida at a well known surf spot in the “Space Coast” called Sebastian Inlet. It all seemed so simple and he was living in a utopia world not thinking he was ever going to get caught. It was not until after making a lot of money, and acquiring a glamorous lifestyle that everything did fall apart and he was trapped between the cartel and the law. Afraid for his life, he decided to adopt a new identity and escaped from America to start another life for himself in Australia. He fled to Australia where he re-established himself and built a new exotic life in Queensland on the Gold Coast. The large frontier Down Under is a new test of all of his will to survive on his own in a foreign country where he is a total stranger. As a result of intensive surveillance, monitoring his parents mail, and phone taps, the FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION uncovered his deception. He eventually was placed on the F.B.I.’s Top 10 Most Wanted list and was tracked to Australia where he was eventually deported to Hawaii, and later deported back to the mainland of the UNITED STATES to face drug charges and accept the reality of incarceration. Once imprisoned, he builds an inner strength and knowledge of life that changed him forever. All of these scenarios combined formed a barrier which was very difficult to overcome. In additon, it destroyed the life which he was meant to have as a respected professional and placed overwhelming anxiety and emotional strain on his family. The book is being written to describe the upheaval that occurred in this young man’s life through the use of drugs and the importation of drugs into this country, successfully utilizing the multi-level marketing network which he had developed. It also describes the awesome task of re-entering his former life, now carrying additional baggage, and the struggle he faces in assimilating a REAL LIFE. His story is a powerful testimony for others to learn from, because so many people in today’s world are vulnerable to the deception of “easy money,” whether in the drug culture on Wall Street or main street. It is also a compelling adventure story from the standpoint of someone recreating a life for himself and then being allowed to live it. The underlying theme of the story is that “YOU CAN NOT LIVE A LIE. You cannot discover your own reality until you go back and reweave the fabric of your life.
In 1948, the Australian government banned the production, importation and exhibition of horror films in a move to appease religious communities and entertainment watchdogs. Drawing upon previously unseen government documents, private letters and contemporary newspaper accounts, this book is the first to extensively cover the history of censorship and the early production of horror movies in Australia. Beginning its examination in the late 19th century, the book documents the earliest horror films like Georges Melies' The Haunted Castle (1896), and how Australians enjoyed such films before the ban. The book then explains how certain imports, like 1954's Creature from the Black Lagoon, were able to circumvent the ban while others were not. It also reveals how Australian television, though similarly impacted by government censorship, was occasionally able to broadcast films technically banned from cinematic release. The work concludes with a look at the first Australian horror films produced after the ban was formally lifted in 1969, like Terry Bourke's Night of Fear (1973).
