This Round's On Me

Lorne Rubenstein On Golf

By: Lorne Rubenstein

Lorne Rubenstein is the preeminent figure in the world of Canadian golf journalism and a member of the Canadian Golf Hall of Fame. He has been reporting on golf for more than thirty years, and this is a collection of Rubenstein’s best and favourite pieces from 1993 to 2008, selected from thousands of newspaper, magazine, and Internet articles. In this book, readers will revel in the wide range of subjects, including course design; swing techniques (such as the stack and tilt); famous people, such as Moe Norman, Jack Nicklaus, Marlene Streit, Payne Stewart, and Ben Hogan; writers, such as Stephen Leacock; and reflections on the beauty and joy of the game. Two separate chapters are devoted to our most important golf heroes: the Canadian champion Mike Weir and the indomitable Tiger Woods. Within these pages, golf enthusiasts of every age and skill level will find something new to delight them. This is as much a celebration of the sport as it is a celebration of one of our most esteemed and beloved golf writers.

Cults in Context

Readings in the Study of New Religious Movements

By: Lorne Dawson

In the face of the increasingly variegated ideological landscape of contemporary America, cults have become the focus of public controversy. The growth of new religions has been matched by the development of an organized and vocal opposition, the anti-cult movement. This in turn has prompted an extensive investigation of new religious movements (NRMs) by sociologists and psychologists of religion, as well as historians and religious studies scholars. The readings collected here contribute to the debate about cults by sampling some of the best and most accessible publications from the academic study of NRMs.The contributors address the questions most commonly asked about cults, such as: What brought about the emergence of new religious movements? What is a cult or new religious movement? Who joins new religious movements and why? Are converts to new religious movements brainwashed? Why did the Jonestown and Waco tragedies happen? Are cults inclined to be violent? What does the emergence of so many new religious movements say about our society? What does it say about the future of religion?Cults in Context surveys the descriptive typologies, theories, and data accumulated by sociologists and psychologists studying new religious movements over the last twenty years. It serves to defuse many popular fears and misconceptions about cults, allowing the reader to develop a more reasonable and tolerant understanding of the people who join new religious movements and the functions of these movements in contemporary society.

Mastership

The Journey From Bankruptcy to a New Life

By: Master Lorne Davidson

In 1996 at the age of 48, Lorne Davidson declared bankruptcy and was forced to take a hard look at his life as a touring musician. With debts racking up and no answers in sight, he felt he had hit rock bottom. After a suggestion from his wife to try taekwondo to help him relax and release some stress, he agreed to a few lessons, and he was hooked. Mastership: From Bankruptcy to a New Life is an autobiography of a twenty-year journey to achieving the title of Master Instructor in Songahm Taekwondo, at the age of sixty-nine. After successfully testing for his sixth-degree black belt, achieving a goal he set for himself in 1997, Lorne Davidson reflects on the changes taekwondo has brought to his life. From Bankruptcy to a New Life is a story of dedication, hard work, and hope. It’s a reminder that there truly are second chances in life, no matter what our age or situation.

A Disorderly Compendium of Golf

By: Lorne Rubenstein,Jeff Neuman

The obsessive book about the obsessive game, and more fun to read than a green at Ballybunion. Written by two authors who have misspent their lives in thrall to the sport, A DISORDERLY COMPENDIUM OF GOLF digs into the odd, the fascinating, the historical, the random, the unexpected, and the curmudgeonly, and serves up hundreds of pages of lists, anecdotes, humor, surprises, and the sheer compelling minutiae of a game whose pleasure lies in the details. It's all here, including history: oldest courses, top 5 money-winners at 10-year intervals, the importance of James II of Scotland. Colorful characters, like the hustler who would bet you that he could roll out of bed in the morning and make a 40-foot putt on his first try, and his secret for doing it every time. Odd rules: Did you know youmay take a free drop from a fireant hill but not from poison ivy? Good golf instructionÑhow to hit Phil Mickelson's trademark flop shotÑand confusing golf instruction: Tom Watson says ÒNever feel you're reaching for the ball,Ó while Johnny Miller advisesÒ Reach for the ball. . . .Ó Embarrassing moments and helpful tips. The lexicon: professional caddie nicknames, terms for an ugly shot, names of golf balls. Plus gambling games, the grasses used in greens, unusual patents, Shakespearean quotes on golf, golf at midnight, longest and shortest holes . . . and more, and more.

The Harasen Line

A Broadcaster's Memoir

By: Lorne Harasen

The book is about a Saskatchewan broadcaster and his experiences and the people he met as an open line commentator. A program conducted by Lorne Harasen and known as The HARASEN LINE was just 25 minutes long when it began and grew to four and a half hours in length. It recorded some of the highest audience ratings in Saskatchewan radio history. PIERRE ELLIOT TRUDEAU, BING CROSBY, COLIN THATCHER, BEN WICKS and WAYNE & SHUSTER were just some of his guests. It was carried on CKCK radio and then CKRM radio in Regina. Topics ranged from sex to sports, medical questions to agriculture. Listeners were rarely impartial on the topic of Lorne Harasen. Most either loved him or hated him but as broadcaster, Doug Alexander once said, you couldn't ignore him.

Middle Income Access to Justice

By: M. Trebilcock,Anthony Duggan,Lorne Sossin

Though most conceptions of the rule of law assume equality before the law – and hence equal access to the justice system – this basic right is not being met for many low and middle income Canadians. This book focuses on the problem of civil access to justice for middle income earners – those whose household income is high enough to disqualify them from legal aid but not high enough to cover the costs of litigation. Featuring contributions by leading Canadian and international scholars, practitioners, and members of the judiciary, this multidisciplinary collection draws on scholarship in the fields of law, social science, and public policy. There is a particular emphasis on family law, consumer law, and employment law, as these are the areas where research has indicated that unmet legal needs are highest. Middle Income Access to Justice presents a variety of innovative solutions, from dispute resolution process reforms to the development of non-lawyer forms of assistance and new methods for funding legal expenses. In doing so, it lays the foundation for the development of a much-needed new delivery model to provide early intervention for legal services.

Barrier Systems for Environmental Contaminant Containment and Treatment

By: Calvin C. Chien,Hilary I. Inyang,Lorne G. Everett

Containment and permeable reactive barriers have come full circle as an acceptable environmental control technology during the past 30 years. As interest shifted back toward containment in the 1990s, the industry found itself relying largely on pre-1980s technology. Fortunately, in the past 10 years important advances have occurred in several areas

The Herald Diary 2021/22

Twisted Tails & Nut Jobs

By: Lorne Jackson

TWISTED TAILS & NUT JOBS It was a year when the world went wonky. When planet earth broke down completely, and we discovered it couldn't be swapped at the shops for an upgraded product, because nobody had bothered to keep the receipt. Luckily The Herald's Diary column was available to cover lockdown lows, Boris bungles and the curious case of a Scottish rock legend's 'smashing' behaviour. And let's not forget our intrepid investigation into the mystery of the century - exactly who was plonking fancy-schmancy woollen hats on the postboxes of Greenock? In this era of chaos and cataclysmic change, some things stayed reassuringly the same. Scotland remained triumphantly average at footy, and the Diary had a chortle about that, too. This chucklesome compilation presents our favourite tales and quirky comments from a year like no other. Included, too, are longer stories set in the mysterious worlds of pubs and ukulele strummers. It's been a funny old year. And this is a funny new book. Brace yourself for a deluge of daffy Diary delights.

The Herald Diary 2022/23

A Dam Good Laugh

By: Lorne Jackson

It was a year that careered out of control, with the natives of Scotland feeling like passengers in a souped-up dodgem car being driven by a crackpot clown without a valid driving licence. Luckily The Herald's Diary column was able to cover the toppling of Boris Johnson, the triumphs of Liz Truss, a huge green-hued shindig and a bat-like creature fighting crime on the streets of Glasgow. All before the outpouring of Royal grief in September when we said goodbye to the Queen and came to terms with "God Save the King". Away from the monarchy, there was the surreal story of a woolly mammoth who might one day play for Scotland, a knight in armour visiting an Edinburgh pub, a cow patiently waiting for a train, Santa climbing a statue and an emu loose in Livingston. And the year also saw a mysterious entity called . . . the Platty Jubes? This cockamamie compilation presents all sorts of shenanigans to round off a year like no other. All with that patented Diary twist.

The Chicago Guide to Landing a Job in Academic Biology

By: C. Ray Chandler,Lorne M. Wolfe,Daniel E. L. Promislow

The Chicago Guide to Landing a Job in Academic Biology is an indispensable guide for graduate students and post-docs as they enter that domain red in tooth and claw: the job market. An academic career in the biological sciences typically demands well over a decade of technical training. So it’s ironic that when a scholar reaches the most critical stage in that career—the search for a job following graduate work—he or she receives little or no formal preparation. Instead, students are thrown into the job market with only cursory guidance on how to search for and land a position. Now there’s help. Carefully, clearly, and with a welcome sense of humor, The Chicago Guide to Landing a Job in Academic Biology leads graduate students and postdoctoral fellows through the perils and rewards of their first job search. The authors—who collectively have for decades mentored students and served on hiring committees—have honed their advice in workshops at biology meetings across the country. The resulting guide covers everything from how to pack an overnight bag without wrinkling a suit to selecting the right job to apply for in the first place. The authors have taken care to make their advice useful to all areas of academic biology—from cell biology and molecular genetics to evolution and ecology—and they give tips on how applicants can tailor their approaches to different institutions from major research universities to small private colleges. With jobs in the sciences ever more difficult to come by, The Chicago Guide to Landing a Job in Academic Biology is designed to help students and post-docs navigate the tricky terrain of an academic job search—from the first year of a graduate program to the final negotiations of a job offer.

Raising Arizona's Dams

Daily Life, Danger, and Discrimination in the Dam Construction Camps of Central Arizona, 1890s-1940s

By: A. E. Rogge,D. Lorne McWatters,Melissa Keane,Richard P. Emanuel

This is the engrossing story of the unsung heroes who did the day-to-day work of building Arizona's dams, focusing on the lives of laborers and their families who created temporary construction communities during the building of seven major dams in central Arizona. The book focuses primarily on the 1903-1911 Roosevelt Dam camps and the 1926-1927 Camp Pleasant at Waddell Dam, although other camps dating from the 1890s through the 1940s are discussed as well. The book is liberally illustrated with historic photographs of the camps and the people who occupied them while building the dams.

The Egerton Gospel (Egerton Papyrus 2 + Papyrus Köln VI 255)

Introduction, Critical Edition, and Commentary

By: Lorne R. Zelyck

In this commentary on the Egerton Gospel, Lorne R. Zelyck presents a fresh paleographical analysis and thorough reconstruction of the fragmentary text, which results in new readings and interpretations. Details surrounding the acquisition of the manuscript are presented for the first time, and various scholarly viewpoints on controversial topics, such as the date of composition and relationship to the canonical gospels, are addressed. This early apocryphal gospel (150-250 CE) provides traditional interpretations of the canonical gospels that are similar to those of other early Christian authors, and affirms Jesus’ continuity with the miracle-working prophets Moses and Elisha, his obedience to the Law, divinity, and violent rejection by Jewish opponents.

Make to Know

From Spaces of Uncertainty to Creative Discovery

By: Lorne M. Buchman

Make to Know: From Spaces of Uncertainty to Creative Discovery will change the way you think about creativity. The book upends popular notions of innate artistic and visionary genius and probes instead the event of discovery that happens through the act of making. In contrast to the classic tale of Michelangelo, who 'saw the angel in the stone', the artists and designers Buchman interviews for this book talk about knowing their work as they engage in the doing. Make to Know explores the revelatory nature of the creative journey itself. As Buchman weaves together the vivid stories of his multiple conversations, we learn about writers of all stripes as they confront creative spaces of uncertainty 'the blank page'; about visual artists and what they understand from the materials they encounter; about designers and architects and the iterative process of solving problems; and about actors and musicians facing the surprises of improvisational performance. Make to Know is a book that will, ultimately, open a path to your own making, and, in the end, will have significant implications for how you live. Make to Know presents a way of thinking that democratizes creativity and uncovers a process that leads to knowing both ones work and oneself. It is relevant to anyone interested in why creativity matters.

Social Problems

A Canadian Perspective

By: Lorne Tepperman,James E. Curtis

In this revised and updated second edition of Social Problems: A Canadian Perspective Lorne Tepperman and Albert Kwan add two new constellations of issues to the list of challenges facing society today, in Canada and around the world: health, illness, and health care; and sexual orientation and homophobia. Each topic is examined first from a variety of theoretical perspectives-structural functionalism, conflict theory, symbolic interactionism, feminism, social constructionism - and then from the point of view of its impact both on individuals and on the population at large. At the same time the authors emphasize the interrelatedness of many issue areas." "In addition to numerous tables and figures, each chapter includes learning objectives, study and discussion questions, recommended readings and websites, and a glossary, as well as an extensive list of references."--BOOK JACKET.

Mike Weir

The Road to the Masters

By: Lorne Rubenstein

How Mike Weir became a Canadian hero, winning the 2003 Masters Tournament and proving that sometimes nice guys finish first Lorne Rubenstein has been following Mike Weir’s career since the slim kid from Brights Grove, Ontario, near Sarnia, started winning amateur tournaments. Weir was a star on the Brigham Young University golf team before turning professional in 1992. It was clear to Lorne Rubenstein that the gentlemanly left-hander had what it takes to make it to golf’s pinnacle. But there’s a world of difference between being a pro golfer who is good enough to make a living on the tour and the elite group that wins one of the majors: the Masters, the U.S. Open, the British Open, and the PGA Championship. Mike had done well on the PGA Tour in the past, winning three tournaments in his first few years there. Then came 2002, a season that began with great hopes that he would make it to the top flight. But the season proved a disappointment, and some golf observers whispered that Weir did not have what it takes to withstand the pressure and win a major. Lorne Rubenstein never wavered in his belief. Having followed Mike for so many years, he still felt that Weir could win a major. After Mike began the 2003 season with two wins, Lorne decided to write a book about his quest to win a major. Mike agreed to cooperate, and so Lorne followed his every shot at the Augusta National Golf Club during the 2002 Masters. After Tiger Woods has slipped the green jacket over Mike Weir’s shoulders, in the midst of one of the many press conferences, Mike smiled at Lorne and said, “I guess this will help the book, right, Lorne?” We guess so, too. We’re guessing that this chronicle of Mike Weir’s journey, with a heavy emphasis on the Masters win that set millions of Canadians cheering, will be a major sports gift book this Christmas. From the Hardcover edition.

Canna

The Story of a Hebridean Island

By: John Lorne Campbell

This is the definitive history of Canna, one of the most beautiful of all the Scottish islands. Fertile and with a sheltered harbour, Canna has played an important part in the story of the Hebrides. After the Reformation the island was of considerable importance to the Irish Franciscan mission of the 1620s and also the Jacobite risings before it was swept up in the tragedies of depopulation and clearances of the nineteenth century. Gifted to the National Trust in 1981, the island is currently undergoing something of a revival, with the creation of the St Edward Centre on Sanday, and the proposed developments of Canna House. Recent archaeological surveys and historical research has uncovered much new evidence about the island. Hugh Cheape of the Royal Museum of Scotland, who has been intimately involved in the Canna project, has fully edited the book. New contributions both update and fill out the account of the island.
