 LARK - LoveToKnow Article on LARK
By Englishmen the word lark, used without qualification, almost invariably means the skylark, Alauda arvensis, which, as the best-known and most widely spread species throughout Europe, has been invariably considered the type of the genus.
Not far removed from the foregoing is a group of larks characterized by a larger crest, a stronger and more curved bill, a rufous lining to the wings, and some other minor features.
All these birds, which have been termed horned larks, from the tuft of elongated fl feathers growing on each side of the head, form a little group easily recognized by their peculiar coloration, which calls to mind some of the ringed plovers, Aegialitis.

 The Stranger | Seattle | Restaurants | Feature | Lark
One night at Lark, my husband, my friend, and I were watching a tableau arrange itself in the center of the room, a couple of families around a long table, bracketed by limpid hanging cloths.
The sons, all of them in bowl cuts and button-down shirts, were standing around at one end of the table with their parents, talking, restlessly shifting from foot to foot.
The stress of eating at an expensive restaurant is missing from Lark, partly because everything I've tasted there is delicious, and also because you order two or three small dishes and taste lots of other things and therefore you don't have much opportunity to worry about what you're missing.

Lark is a non-validating XML processor implemented in the Java language; it attempts to achieve good trade-offs among compactness, completeness, and performance.

 Lark Bunting   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Though similar in size (Lark Buntings are six to seven inches from beak to tail-feathers, Bobolinks are six to eight), these birds are easy to tell apart.

 COMICON.com: GOTHAM CENTRAL'S MICHAEL LARK [2003 EISNER NOM.]
LARK: Covers are much, much harder, for me. Inside a book, I have 22 pages with an average of 6 drawings on each of them, so if I make a mistake here and there you'll just move on to the next drawing and hopefully not even notice.
LARK: It's very much like SCENE OF THE CRIME, in that it's a book that really works on a human level - but it has the villians and Batman, who function as sort of metaphors, serving in many cases to reflect the inner struggles of the cops and the rest of the cast.
Lark's style is much too static and placid (see, I can be all criticy too!) to call Caniff, Robbins and Toth to mind, or at least my unenlightened mind anyway.

 Effects of Management Practices on Grassland Birds: Lark Bunting
In Kansas, Lark Buntings were unimportant hosts because of loss of nests to farming operations, ejection of cowbird eggs, and desertion of parasitized nests by parents (Hill 1976).
Lark Buntings preferred nesting in pasture that was lightly grazed in the summer, followed by pasture that was heavily or moderately grazed in winter, and pasture that was moderately grazed in summer; they were absent from pasture heavily grazed in summer (Giezentanner and Ryder 1969; Giezentanner 1970; Wiens 1970, 1973).
Lark Buntings are common in CRP and PCP grasslands (Johnson and Schwartz 1993a,b; McMaster and Davis 1998).

Under the LARK program, Taliban detainees are being housed with liberals who disagree with the government's treatment of prisoners kept at Guantanamo Bay.
That divergence of opinion has led to members of the first and third groups (and sometimes the second) regarding one another as fool-headed in their assessments and hopelessly out of touch with the core issues at stake.
