	HEATHLANDS ON THE INTERNET
		Devon’s lowland heathland is sometimes overlooked between the larger expanses in Dorset and Cornwall, yet it represents one fifth of the total in the South West, and has a unique character.
		The character of Devon’s lowland heathland is provided not just by heather, which is less predominant in Devon’s heathlands than it is in other heathland areas further to the east, but by a varying mosaic of heather, western gorse, bristle bent, cross-leaved heath and bell heather.
		The fragmentation of lowland heathland is of greatest concern in southern England (Putwain and Gillham 1990).

		A line of these so-called Peel towers was built in the 1430s across the Tweed valley from Berwick to its source, as a response to the dangers of invasion from the English borders.

	"Gorillas" by Edward Willett
		There are also improved viewing facilities and a research station that provides detailed information on the ecology of rainforests and the impact humans are having on them--an impact that could doom the gorillas to extinction as their habitat is destroyed.
		There are three distinct types of gorilla - the western lowland gorilla (found in western central Africa), the eastern lowland gorilla (found in Eastern Zaire) and the mountain gorilla (found in the mountainous regions of Zaire, Rwanda and Uganda).
		There are only a few tens of thousands of gorillas of all types left in the world, including a few hundred in zoos, almost all of which were bred in captivity, rather than captured in the wild.

		It is also known as Inglis (now archaic, and a variant of ‘English’), Lallans (‘Lowlands’), Lowland Scots (in contrast with the Gaelic of the Highlands and Islands), and ‘the Doric’ (as a rustic language in contrast with the ‘Attic’ or ‘Athenian’ language of Edinburgh's literati, especially in the 18th century).
		It is also often referred to as Broad Scots in contrast to the anglicized language of the middle classes.

		Of the world's three main types of gorilla, there are about 100,000 western lowland gorillas; a few hundred endangered mountain gorillas in Rwanda; and until recently about 8,000 eastern lowland gorillas, the largest of the sub-species.
		Until the mid-1990s, the eastern lowland lived in relative tranquillity in the Kahuzi-Biéga. Then the Interahamwe, the Hutu militia fighters responsible for the 1994 genocide in neighbouring Rwanda, fled their native land and took refuge in the park's uninhabited forests.
		As a result, conservationists fear the eastern lowland gorilla has now been reduced to a rump of a few hundred animals, a number so low as to leave the species vulnerable to any outbreak of disease or slight climate change.

	Laos - Ethnic Diversity
		Because detailed ethnographic information about many groups is lacking--especially for the midland groups--and because the sheer number of ethnicities represented in Laos is so great, the discussion of ethnic groups concentrates on one or two representative examples of each of the three larger groupings; other groups may differ on a number of points.
		The Lao Loum, or lowland Lao, constitute the majority of the population--66 percent--and comprise several ethnic groups that began to move from the north into the Southeast Asian peninsula about 1,000 years ago.
		French colonial rule tended to strengthen the position of lowland Lao, both by granting them access to education and by commonly appointing them as district and provincial governors regardless of the ethnic makeup of a region.

		Having begun with a base in towns and lowland villages, NU chapters spread to the lower fringes of the Tengger highlands, moving into communities where the contest between Islam and Javanism was as yet unfinished.
		In the Pasuruan lowlands, youth organizations associated with militant NU leaders initiated the attacks even before the army or local government was in a position to coordinate or restrain their actions.
		In lowland Pasuruan, for example, the influence of land scarcity, rice shortages, and inflation worked to restrict the political options of the poor, forcing them into alliance with their NU patrons.

		In the central lowland, especially in the north half, glacial stratified deposits are the predominant surficial materials.
		In general, both facies of upper till derived from the red Mesozoic sedimentary rocks of the central lowland of Connecticut are finer-grained, more compact, less stony and have fewer surface boulders than upper till derived from crystalline rocks of the eastern and western highlands.

		For purposes of civil government it is divided into the five hundreds of Geneu'r Glyn, Ilar, Moythen, Penarth, and Troedyraur, all of which have upper and lower divisions.
		Together with others now abandoned, they amount to about fifty: the greater number is situated in a district extending nearly from the shores of the Dovey, south-eastward across the Rheidiol and Ystwith, to the source of the Teivy; and most of the remainder in a line along the eastern bank of the latter river.
		The Teivy is navigable up to Cardigan for vessels of rather more than two hundred tons' burden, and up to Llêchryd bridge, to which place the tide flows, for barges: its tributaries are more numerous than copious, and the greater part of its course is through narrow mountainous defiles.

		"Toraja" was merely a derogatory term applied by the Bugis and Makassarese living in the lowlands of the southwest peninsula of Sulawesi (then called Celebes) to any of the many different peoples living in the mountainous regions of the peninsula and central Sulawesi.
		Today, Tana Toraja (Toraja Land) is an administrative district in the province of South Sulawesi, the people living there comprise one of the four official suku bangsa (ethnic groups) of the peninsula, and the Toraja are celebrated (at least amongst anthropologists, tourists, and television crews) for their fantastic architecture and elaborate funerals.
		Before the arrival of the Dutch, the Muslims in the lowlands had regarded the politically fragmented highlanders as a major source of slaves, as well as coffee and other highland products.The Dutch had been a colonial presence on Sulawesi since the seventeenth century but had mainly ignored the inaccessible and agriculturally unproductive mountain areas.

		The lowland gorillas are under the SSP; however, virtually no mountain gorillas are held in captivity and none are in American zoological facilities.
		Conservation Status: The western lowland gorilla is listed as an endangered species by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the IUCN Red Data Book and as an Appendix I species under CITES.
		There are few other animal species which so easily excite the human spirit and imagination and, in contrast, remind humanity of the tragedy of creating a world which has no room for wildlife.
