A non-profit organization dedicated to the worldwide protection of the polar bear and its arctic habitat. Polar Bears Alive was founded in 1992 to serve as a calm voice on behalf of Ursus maritimus. It was established by the late Dan Guravich, an award-winning photographer who is internationally known for his work with polar bears. After years of observing and photographing these intelligent animals, Guravich became increasingly concerned about their welfare. Polar Bears Alive http://www.polarbearsalive.org/

EduHound proclaims to be "Everything for Education K-12." This is not just a meta-site of annotated links. EduHound also provides a free tool for developing a password-protected hotlist, a site of the week, a list of A+ sites, and a weekly newsletter. The database of resources is extensive, with more than 60 subject categories. The site is also offered in Spanish. Just added to the site is a new section for the Pre-K through 2 set, EduPuppy. It is very similar in format to EduHound, and users can browse by category or search by alphabetical keyword. Eduhound  http://www.eduhound.com/

This Project is a cooperative effort among the University of Oklahoma Law Center, the National Indian Law Library (NILL), and Native American tribes providing access to the Constitutions, Tribal Codes, and other legal documents. Project Coordinators are David Selden (NILL) and Marilyn Nicely (OU). Tribal constitutions and codes are the heart of self-government for over 500 federally recognized tribes, and are the lifeblood of Indian sovereignty. The University of Oklahoma Law Center Library and the National Indian Law Library work with tribes whose government documents appear on this web site; these tribal documents are either placed online with the permission of the tribes, or they are U.S. Government documents, rightfully in the public domain.
