 Christian Living & Faith: David
A page-turner with graceful pace, David is carefully constructed, as Swindoll dissects the king's life from boyhood to death.
The author notes that David spent the first 50 years of his life walking in the integrity of his heart, while the last 20 years were composed of a "downhill slide" by which that same heart was broken as he rested with his fathers.
Of course, the key incident for David's family pain relates to his adultery with Bathsheba and subsequent killing of her husband, Uriah, but this tragedy, Swindoll notes, was almost an expected step in a pattern of passionate weakness displayed by David toward women.

Lack and Venables [12] relate a similar example for the Stonechat (Saxicola torquata).
An otherwise favourable habitat which lacked these recognition features would not be colonized, and the chief evidence for a psychological factor in habitat selection is the absence of species from habitats apparently well suited in essentials but not in superficial appearance.
Other cases could be mentioned, and as an instance of breeding outside the typical habitat, Harrisson and Lack [4] found that the Rock-Pipit bred on rocky moorland away from the shore on St. Kilda.

 Lack of Reproduction   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-07)
Abstract: A lack of young muskoxen (Ovibos moschatus) and arctic hares (Lepus arcticus) in the Eureka area of Ellesmere Island, Northwest Territories (now Nunavut), Canada, was observed during summer 1998, in contrast to most other years since 1986.
Early winter weather and a consequent 50% reduction of the 1997 summer replenishment period appeared to be the most likely cause, giving rise to a new hypothesis about conditions that might cause adverse demographic effects in arctic herbivores.
Lack of reproduction in muskoxen and arctic hares caused by early winter?
