Situated close to the Atlantic coast and bordered by the Great Egg Harbor Bay and the Patcong Creek, Somers Point was a New Jersey center for shipbuilding, and many of its residents were clammers, fishermen, and sea captains. Somers Point is the oldest settlement in Atlantic County and home to the oldest residential structure there as well. Somers Mansion was constructed in 1725 and overlooks the Great Egg Harbor Bay; it is a three-story building made of brick in the Flemish bond pattern. The Somers Mansion Historic Site, dedicated in 1942, is currently managed by the State of New Jersey.

Somers Point showcases the rich maritime and community history of this New Jersey bay town.

This brief considers the various stakeholders in today's mobile device ecosystem, and analyzes why widely-deployed hardware security primitives on mobile device platforms are inaccessible to application developers and end-users. Existing proposals are also evaluated for leveraging such primitives, and proves that they can indeed strengthen the security properties available to applications and users, without reducing the properties currently enjoyed by OEMs and network carriers. Finally, this brief makes recommendations for future research that may yield practical and deployable results.

Australian environmental scientists Newsome, Moore (both Murdoch U.), and Dowling (Edith Cowan U.) examine tourism in natural areas, especially in relation to ecology, impacts and management. The authors tackle the existing perception that tourism developments in environmentally sensitive areas are inherently adverse. They contend that with enough foresight, planning, and management, such developments can introduce the general public to the environment in an educational, ethical, and exciting manner. The result: greater appreciation of the environment will inspire action for the environment. The second edition incorporates a review of the new literature published since the 2002 first edition. For researchers, tourism industry professionals, policy makers, planners, managers, government agencyemployees, and students in varied disciplines. Distributed in the US by UTP Distribution.
