Site of the week: Blogs and websites are the perfect place to discuss books, because there’s an infinite amount of space available for the nearly infinite number of new books published each year. A website can also link to helpful information from agents, publishers and successful authors. One such literate site is maudnewton.com, a deep and wide discussion of all things related to books.
Watch this Web video: So most of us now agree on the dangers of global warming, but many of us still don’t understand the basic science that makes it happen. Robert Krulwich has made some entertaining and informative explanations of the key role carbon plays in the warming process, for National Public Radio. You can find the audio and video of his brief reports at npr.org/news/specials/climate/video/, and next time you hear about glaciers melting, you’ll know why.
