Next class starts: Monday 30 March, 2015
Learn to create mandalas full of pattern, depth and meaning.
We will explore the sacred circle in many forms including doodling, journaling, paint, collage and sacred symbol mark making.
We will look for inspiration in planetary patterns, sacred geometry, cymatics and nature to journal and explore what the mandala means to us personally. I dive deeply into all of these areas and you will see the world so differently after taking this class!
At the end of class, not only will you be full of inspiration, you will have a beautiful journal full of studies, sketches and awakening imagery AND at least one finished unique mixed media piece of art to hang on your own wall.

What is a Mandala?
I am sure you have heard of mandalas before and seen many forms of the mandala. There seems to be a lovely popularity of drawing them currently out there, which is wonderful.
The actual word "mandala", is from Sanskrit, and can be translated as "circle" or "the sacred circle of life" but the feeling of creating and viewing a mandala can be very personal to each and every one of us.
To me, a mandala is a form of self expression, meditation and beauty. I have always loved creating using spirographs, drawing circles, following the crop circle season, intuitive mandalas, nature mandalas and creating full moon dream board mandalas.
Mandalas can be of a free form organic expression of shapes, doodles and colors OR they can be exact in mathematical proportions which results more towards "sacred geometry."
Mandalas are echoes of our soul and are unique to each and every one of us.
Lovely Testimonials
Brilliantly written, unbelievably thorough material. Well paced, anyone can work at their level and speed.
Katie FlowersIt has made me see mandala designs all around me. I now carry my camera everywhere to capture pictures of the ones I can use to develop.
Barbara CromptonThank you so much again for the awesome course, I felt liberated and inspired and it meet my need to remember that I am more than 'Mama', and reignited my creative flame that so nourishes me.
Natalie StokellI loved watching the videos of your process — it made the creating feel much closer and more accessible. I also loved seeing what others created — the participants were all so creative and opened even more doors of possibility.
Lisa DeYoungI loved all of it. And I enjoyed the way it was taught (thank you, Louise) starting with loose, free drawing and moving into mandalas of different materials – natural materials, paper, and of course I will add fabric and stitch to that. I now see mandalas everywhere.
Barbara CromptonDon't miss this opportunity to learn the mandala process, to step out of your creative safe zone and learn something new. I have learned so much from Louise and added to my already full mandala repertoire. She is an amazing guide on your personal mandala journey … A MUST TO EXPERIENCE!
Donna WynnThe class also made starting to create mandalas easy and fun from me.
Lisa DeYoungThe class unlocks the magic of these sacred circles in such a fun and accessible way.
Lisa DeYoungI must say that you truly have such a soft way of teaching, that allows one to enter your beautiful space, world and home and feel as though you are right there with you. You share so much of your techniques with others, thank you. I am a better artist today because you have shared so much with me!
Donna WynnI knew from taking one of Louise's other classes that we would look into various techniques, which is something I really wanted to explore. Also, the community and Louise's energy make the class a really fun and welcoming environment.
Natasha DevaudDoing this course gave me the impetus to move out of my sketchbook and onto a "public" surface !!! So now my Mandalas are hung on my wall instead of just occupying pages.
Katie FlowersIf you love mandalas and meditative art forms, you will love this class and you will get limitless inspirational ideas for mandalas for years to come.
Sigrun SigurdardottirI loved how Louise had an air of permission about her, she worked quickly, not worrying about keeping in the lines or it being perfect, which was so freeing for me, and really allowed or invited me to be loose and relaxed rather than focusing on it 'looking good' or 'getting it right'.
Natalie StokellThe class taught me to be a lot more free and confident about my creative abilities.
Natasha DevaudDo I need to spend lots of money on supplies and buy all the supplies in the list?
Not at all. I will send you a materials list and outline on what I would see as essentials and also offer some suggestion on other materials you can use instead.
How does it all work?
Once you register and pay, I will be in touch to confirm your place and send you a full materials list. Then a few days before the class is due to start, I will email you with the class access details so you can familiarise yourself with the classroom before the lessons start. The classroom is an online password protected space where you will find the lessons, videos and other information as you work through the class. We will also have a private facebook group where you can ask me questions, share your work and offer support /inspiration as everyone works through.
What if I cant keep up? and how long do I have access to the classroom?
My courses are designed for all of us juggling busy lives, jobs and multiple projects. Each lesson is broken down in such a way that you can take a look at the basics in as little as 10 minutes to start the inspiration process and then watch the videos when you have more time to then spend creating. If you fall behind a little, that is totally okay, the classroom will stay open for 6 months after the class finishes so you can revisit and work through at your own pace.
I am on a different time zone to you, can I still join in?
Of course! As this class is self-paced once the lessons are posted, you can log in at any time that is convenient to you. Many of my classes have lovely participants from around the world joining in.
What if I have taken one of your other classes, are the techniques and videos the same?
If you have taken my "Creative Colour Energy" class a couple of the extra bonus timelapse videos are the same and 'how to create a basic mandala' is very similar, but all the content and videos are brand new so if you have taken one of my other classes, this will be a whole new experience.
Do I need to be in class or online at a specific time?
Not at all. I will be posting each lesson Monday-Friday during the 4 weeks at approximately 9am GMT. Once that lesson is posted, you can log in and work through at your own pace. It is okay to miss a few lessons as they will be there when you log back into class.
Do I need to be an artist?
I would say we are all creative of course so even if you do not think of yourself as 'an artist' just yet. The class is for everyone at every level. I will be taking you through each lesson step by step, so even if you have not painted or drawn before or do not think you are creative! I will break each step down so you can follow through with confidence and fun!
I have drawn and created mandalas before, so what is different about your class?
"Mixed Media Mandalas" is a unique class that I have created from my own love and experience of working with these beautiful creations. I researched what was already out there and this is the first class that covers various types of inspiration such as nature, sacred geometry and universal energy shapes. If you already know how to draw a mandala, this class will inspire you and open you up to some new ways to create, stretch and explore through lots of different mixed media too. I also take you through my own process for creating so you can take those techniques and apply to your own style.
Can I share what I am doing in class?
We will have a private community facebook group so you can share your work and progress. If you would also like to blog about your experience in class, that is also wonderful, but please do not copy or paste anything from the classroom or share the specific exercises. If you do blog or share anything on social media, please do link back to http://louisegale.com and you can also use the hashtag #mixedmediamandalas
Once you register and pay, Louise will be in touch with more information. The class is held in a password protected online classroom.

Jim Cramer: Thank You, Larry Summers
Editor's Note: This article was originally published at 7:11 a.m. on Real Money on Sept. 16. To see Jim Cramer's latest commentary as it's published, sign up for a free trial of Real Money.
NEW YORK ( Real Money) -- Could people be more poorly positioned for this trade off Larry Summers' exit from the Fed chief race? You would had to have been long everything that had previously seemed like a logical short: regional banks, mortgage insurers, homebuilders, home suppliers and home-related retailers -- everything that was doing poorly and could have been expected to do even worse under Summers.
It's a nightmare for the hedge funds. It will require massive short-covering. In the meantime, everything that could have been expected to work for lack of anything to do with the housing market will become a source of funds when the futures gaffe the market with their power.
This one could not have been gamed. You didn't think that the Senate Democrats would break ranks with a tone-deaf president who seemed totally unaware of how divisive Summers' candidacy would be. Plus, did he not know that Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) was going to run a one-woman pillage of the former Harvard president who has been scorned by women of all levels, but particularly former faculty members like Warren? Did Obama not know how Summers was regarded as a deregulator who got us into this mess, or someone who favored financial engineering above all? Summers was also allied with the banking universe post-White House, which seems to be hated now more than ever.
This candidacy -- which required Summers to bow out in order to save the president some political capital and avoid gut-wrenching hearings -- was so ill-thought-out by the president that one can only wonder how horrendous the battle will be with the Republicans in a few weeks. It revealed the president as being uniquely out of touch with what Congress and the people want out of a Federal Reserve chairman -- which is exactly what they currently have: Ben Bernanke and his progrowth policies. Summers stood for what the Tea Party wants without having the Tea Party's political bent. He would have been a lightning rod when what's needed is a peacemaker. I know that Janet Yellen is now the putative front-runner. However, any president that had favored Summers has to have great antipathy for Yellen, because she's from the Bernanke school of thought. How ironic is it that Bernanke is progrowth and pro-job creation, but the president, so desperate to have Summers as chief, clearly wanted to spurn that direction? It's almost as if he was courting political strife and base-burning when it came to this appointment.Select the service that is right for you!

These dark spots had been recorded by Galileo himself
A city-based physicist and his colleagues have unravelled the mystery behind an occurrence that has intrigued scientists across the world – the disappearance for nearly two years of sun spots on the surface of the sun. These dark spots had been recorded by Galileo himself.
The findings of Dibyendu Nandi, a researcher at the India Institute of Science Education and Research, Kolkata, and his colleagues Andres Munoz-Jaramillo and Petrus Martens were published in the prestigious international journal "Nature" on Thursday.
Sunspots are created from the interaction of magnetic fields with the ionised gases in the interior of the sun that emerge to its surface because of the buoyancy of the magnetic fields.
These globs of charged particles, called plasma, are in a continuous flow from the surface of the sun to its interiors resulting in a flow of plasma, which is often called the "great conveyor belt", explained Dr. Nandi to The Hindu.
A computer model developed by the researchers that is based on equations of the activity in the core of the sun as observed from satellites explains this flow of plasma. From the model they have been able to explain the lag in the observance of the sunspots for nearly two years.
"It happened as a result of speeding up in the 1990s and then slowing down after 2000 of the flow of plasma from the surface to the core and its subsequent re-emergence. It can be visualised as two cars moving at different speeds on the highway as a result of which the difference between them is increasing," Dr. Nandi said.
"Sun spots have been well documented for over 400 years. The last time such a lag was reported was nearly a hundred years ago in 1913," he said.
If this solar activity can be predicted, it will have a significant impact on both aviation and monitoring of satellites because sunspots affect what is described as space weather.
The explosions containing the energy of a thousand-billion atom bombs emit from the sun and can reach the earth, in a way like lightning. However, the earth and weather here are protected from them because of its own magnetic field, he explained.
However, satellites orbiting the earth are not protected from these emissions.

Sanofi Survey Finds Travel Puts Those With Severe Allergies On High Alert
Additional traveling tips, including how to talk about your severe allergies in other languages, can be found on Auvi-Q.com. Also available for download is The Severe Allergy & Anaphylaxis Playbook – a collection of tips to help educate people living with severe allergies, and their friends and family, about avoiding allergens and being prepared in case of an emergency – whether at home or while traveling.
For additional information and updates, people are encouraged to visit and "like" Sanofi US' Severe Allergy Awareness Facebook page at www.Facebook.com/SevereAllergyAwareness.
*Survey MethodologyThe survey was conducted by Wakefield Research among 400 respondents, including 275 adults with a severe allergy who have been prescribed an epinephrine auto-injector, and 223 caregivers of children under the age of 18 with a severe allergy who have been prescribed an epinephrine auto-injector. Some survey respondents qualified as both adult sufferers and caregivers of children with severe allergies. The survey was fielded between July 10 - 22, 2013, using an email invitation and an online survey. The margin of error for the study is +/- 4.9%.
IndicationAuvi-Q™ (epinephrine injection, USP) is used to treat life-threatening allergic reactions (anaphylaxis) in people who are at risk for or have a history of these reactions.
Important Safety InformationAuvi-Q is for immediate self (or caregiver) administration and does not take the place of emergency medical care. Seek immediate medical treatment after use. Each Auvi-Q contains a single dose of epinephrine. Auvi-Q should only be injected into your outer thigh. DO NOT INJECT INTO BUTTOCK OR INTRAVENOUSLY. If you accidentally inject Auvi-Q into any other part of your body, seek immediate medical treatment. Epinephrine should be used with caution if you have heart disease or are taking certain medicines that can cause heart-related (cardiac) symptoms. If you take certain medicines, you may develop serious life-threatening side effects from epinephrine. Be sure to tell your doctor all the medicines you take, especially medicines for asthma. Side effects may be increased in patients with certain medical conditions, or who take certain medicines. These include asthma, allergies, depression, thyroid disease, Parkinson's disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease. The most common side effects may include increase in heart rate, stronger or irregular heartbeat, sweating, nausea and vomiting, difficulty breathing, paleness, dizziness, weakness or shakiness, headache, apprehension, nervousness, or anxiety. These side effects go away quickly, especially if you rest.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Amy Jade Winehouse
Andrzej Szczerski
Painting - Digital Painting Watercolor
Amy Jade Winehouse (14 September 1983 � 23 July 2011) was an English singer-songwriter known for her deep contralto vocals and her eclectic mix of musical genres including R&B, soul, jazz, ska and reggae.Winehouse's 2003 debut album, Frank, was critically successful in the UK and was nominated for the Mercury Prize. Her 2006 follow-up album, Back to Black, led to six Grammy Award nominations and five wins, tying the then record for the most wins by a female artist in a single night, and made Winehouse the first British female to win five Grammys, including three of the "Big Four": Best New Artist, Record of the Year and Song of the Year.
In 2007 she won a Brit Award for Best British Female Artist; she had also been nominated for Best British Album. She won the Ivor Novello Award three times: once in 2004 for Best Contemporary Song (musically and lyrically) for "Stronger Than Me", once in 2007 for Best Contemporary Song for "Rehab", and once in 2008 for Best Song Musically and Lyrically for "Love Is a Losing Game".
Winehouse died of alcohol poisoning on 23 July 2011. Her album Back to Black posthumously became the UK's best-selling album of the 21st century, at that point.In 2012, Winehouse was listed at number 26 on VH1's 100 Greatest Women in Music. The BBC has called her "the pre-eminent vocal talent of her generation."

The hotel was excellent, great design, on a 5 day road trip easily the best service at breakfast anywhere. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay - Anonymous
Everything!! The staff was great. We came to town early to go to an expo at the convention center and stopped at the hotel only to ask for directions. We were there 3 hours before check in and they checked to see if they had an available room and checked us in 3 hours early! The breakfast was a fabulous hot buffet. The room was great... Bed was super comfy, decor was contemporary (definately not your typical, blah hotel decor), room had just about anything you could need. I will definately stay - Anonymous
Close to highway. Easy check in/out. Full hot breakfast. Clean room with space. While not a full size frige it was a decent size. - Anonymous
The hotel rooms were very clean and big. The hotel staff were friendly. The location was great. There were stores attached to the hotel, make it easy to go from store to store and not have to go outside. - Anonymous
Location on the U of M campus. Close to University Hospital. Upgraded appearance of public areas and of the room with large flat screen TV, plenty of electrical outlets and a pleasant shower.. Starbucks and Applebee's attached. Best of all was the courtesy and welcoming attitude of all the employees. - Anonymous
Food Room was great Service was excellent. - Anonymous
The rooms were very spacious and the beds very comfortable and the room was very clean. Extra towels, coffee and toileteries were delivered promptly. The lighter weight robes very nice. Happy hour at the Bank was reasonable the drinks and food were good. Staff very polite and accommodating? Would have loved to have the giant bottle of La Crema from the bank vault delivered to our room for us to consume. - Anonymous
We liked that we were not disturbed by any other guests, as far as noise, we liked the colors and design of the room and the hotel. We like in the bathroom area there was a separate vanity that we could sit and put our make up on. Like the fact that after a certain hour you need your hotel key to use the elevators-security. - Anonymous
Appreciated the effort to make smoking areas easily accessible for patrons. Charley's Grill was a nice place, with very friendly and helpful staff. - Anonymous
Spacious room - Anonymous
We liked the easy check-in. Friendly staff, clean room, spacious bathroom, nice furnishings. I left an item in the room after check out and the security staff had lost and found contact me right away. He told me they had found my item, but it was thought to be trash, and was thrown away by housekeeping so ended up in teh garbage. He dug it out of the garbage, but it was actually ruined by liquid, so I didnt ask for it to be returned to me. Very nice gesture by the lost and found staff. - Anonymous

Elgato EyeTV Mobile streams live TV to iPads
Elgato, makers of the EyeTV line of accessories, has announced EyeTV Mobile for the iPad 2. Consisting of a dock connector dongle with a built-in TV antenna, the accessory will allow iPad 2 owners to watch live TV anywhere via a forthcoming EyeTV Mobile app on the App Store.
The accessory and app replicate a great deal of the functionality of the EyeTV lineup for the Mac, including the ability to pause/rewind/record live TV and receive certain kinds of radio transmissions. The best part is this setup will not consume any mobile data whatsoever; the TV signals come in directly through the antenna accessory, so you don't even need to be connected to the internet to watch live TV on your iPad 2.
There are some caveats to the EyeTV Mobile rig. First is the price: €99.95 / ₤99.95 (US price unavailable) may be a bit steep for many people's wallets. According to the product's tech specs, it only supports standard definition channels, and its lack of support for Freeview HD suggests it will be of limited utility where I live. The product is also only compatible with the iPad 2; owners of the iPhone, iPod touch, and original iPad are out of luck.
That having been said, if you've been looking for a no-fuss way to watch TV on your iPad that doesn't involve hooking up a bunch of different devices and streaming over Wi-Fi or 3G, EyeTV Mobile might work for you if your terrestrial TV channels broadcast a compatible signal. There's no word on a release date yet (Engadget says late September), but when it's released we'll see if we can get hold of a review unit.

Abstract: The rapid ascendance of deterrence theory and other rational-choice interpretations of criminal behaviour in the 1970s was matched until recently by a failure to examine empirically the criminal decision making of serious offenders. This paper reports the results of an ethnographic investigation of criminal decision making by a sample of persistent property offenders. Following brief introductory comments, we describe our research objectives and methodology. Then we describe salient features of the decision-making processes employed by members of the sample. We argue that improved understanding of criminal decision making by persistent property offenders is gained by exploring how their utilities are shaped and sustained by the lifestyle characteristic of many of them. We suggest that offenders' efforts to acquire the financial and social capital needed to enhance, sustain, or restore enjoyment of this lifestyle may generate a bounded rationality in which they discount or ignore the formal risks of crime.

Is the Connection part of Social Media Making us More Lonely?
I've been doing extensive research on the effects of social media on the teen culture. Remember, this is the first generation growing up in a world where Social Media and Web 2.0 is a reality. They don't know life without Facebook, YouTube, Google, or Twitter. Their whole lives have been connected through a series of messages, videos, and 140 character tweets.
So the question at hand is, Does social media actually do its perceived job of connecting people?
And there's no question in my mind. The answer is ABSOLUTELY YES!
We've been able to connect with people we haven't seen in years. Old classmates, new friends, and people with similar interests are connected like never before. We can message people, inform dates and calendar events, talk about the latest homework assignments, or just talk about what's going on in our world...ALL FROM THE TOUCH OF OUR CELL PHONES.
It's an unbelievable mobile world we live in, but what of connecting? Really connecting?
I was recently at a youth event and I asked the students "Who in this group post pictures of themselves in their most depressed time?"
Let it be known...NO HANDS WENT UP.
"So when you're cruising facebook looking at everyone else's pictures, do you ever picture the people you're creeping on having a bad day?"
One student realized where I was going and responded, "No, it just seems like everyone else is having more fun than I am."
"Exactly!" I was so excited someone was actually tracking with me.
"You see, what happens in our illusion of connection is a euphoric ideal that the world is 'better' out there. Everyone else has life figured out. They're eating good foods. They're going on exotic vacations. They're hanging out with popular friends and celebrities. But in reality, they experience the same life you do.
Put a different way....
When you're creeping on the Facebook pictures of someone else thinking to yourself, 'Man, their life is awesome, and I'm so depressed.' They are actually doing the same thing to your photos on their end. They're cruising through all your highlight pictures and thinking, 'Man, their life is awesome, and I'm so depressed.' (obviously depression is overstated for the analogy) But the point remains the same. We all think everyone else has life figured out while we're struggling."
The truth is, WE ALL HAVE ISSUES. We all struggle through pain, heartache, disease, death, depression, rejection, the need for validation, and the ever wondering 'Am I good enough?'
Nobody lives the life we see in People Magazine, not even the people who are in People.
Nobody is safe from pain.
Nobody is immune to the feeling of inadequacy.
It's a natural drive for us to go out and prove who we are and that we matter.
So in as far as Social Mediums connect us, it's unbelievable. But to think Facbook, Twitter, or Youtube can replace real human interaction is to deceive ourselves. We are whole people who need the support of a community. We need people to rejoice in our success. We need people to mourn in our loss. We need to have those few people we can be honest with about all the hidden dark shadows that run around in our minds. After all, we're born that way.
In the beginning of time, I believe God created us all to live in culture together. Sure, He knew Facebook would be around, but He created us to dwell with one another. Not just 'click' for friendships, but actually work at serving one another. Maybe a better way to state it is, "Love Your Neighbor!"
Interestingly enough, all the major religions on the planet find commonality in the fact we should learn to Love those around us. And Love, in its purest form, is to serve each other. When we dwell in a community of people, and look out for the best interests of others HIGHER than those of our own; we find TRUE community.
That's why I get so excited about our little slice of heaven in Colorado called KIVU. We're not simply putting on a summer retreat/resort center for teenagers. We're putting together a community of people who learn how to interact at a human level.
No cell phones.
No facebook.
No twitter.
No Youtube.
No Social Mediums.
We're interested in Teenagers having the time of their life, and learning that we are more about understanding how to live with one another, than turning to a safe place of connection on the web.
Come check out our progress at www.campkivu.com.
I'm interested in your thoughts.
Do you think Social Media is making us more lonely?

If any of you guys remember in FireRed/LeafGreen, there was something like this implemented, yeah? Though only for a short amount of time! After you completed the game, you had to travel to Island Three, I think? I'm unsure on whether it was three, but there was a Biker gang that was harassing a fellow civilian, and it was your job to defeat the gang. After you've done so, I don't think they've really made a re-appearance ever again, and everything was peachy from there.
My memory of this event is really hazy, so yeah. x_x;
That said though, I'd love it if there was some sort of anti-hero team of some sort. What I would love in an anti-hero team though, is if they would somehow partner up with the protagonist to defeat the main antagonist. It would make things so much more exciting that, after the petty battles that you and said anti-hero have, that you somehow convince them, in the end, to side with you for one battle, and that one battle is against the boss of the evil team. :3

i m using .NET mvc2 for my application. i want some custom authorization on my actions. i have googled a bit and there seems to be two options available.
- Impelement logic in onActionExecuting in custom Action Filter see this post
- subclass authorizeattribute or implement Iauthorization interface and put my logic there
My question here is that which technique is preferable with pros and cons of using each technique
edited: Moreover i can override onActionExecuting and onAuthorization in my base controller that gives me benefit of accessing controller variables directly.

It's completely and utterly cliché, but true: when you're in love, even the seeming flaws of a person are transformed into marks of beauty. What to do, then, when the object of your affection is unable to see the good in him - or herself – and takes that insecurity out on you? Such is the dilemma faced by Booth newcomer PJ Simas, who presents a "Diagnosis of a Beautiful Mind" on this newly-leaked cut off his latest full-length. Here, the 21-year-old San Luis Obispo resident showcases his skills on both sides of the boards, crafting a downbeat synth-guitar arrangement for his emotionally-charged verses, which find him lamenting his inability to connect with his girl any longer. Though he makes a sincere effort to see things from her perspective, all his attempts are in vain, and the record ends on a note of desperation: "Is this what I deserve? To be harassed as a person, to be told by my boo straight up I don't deserve them." Heavy stuff, too be sure – but I have a feeling all too many will be able to relate to the artist's plight. If you can appreciate this joint's emotionally raw style, more hot beats and real talk await on Simas' Triple Play LP, released April 29, and out now online.

New Zealand's oil spill response agency, Maritime New Zealand (MNZ), said it is likely more charges will follow. The Rena, a Liberian-flagged vessel, struck the Astrolabe Reef, about 12 nautical miles off the city of Tauranga, on the North Island, a week ago.Hundreds of tonnes of fuel oil have leaked from the ship, leading New Zealand's environment minister, Nick Smith, to call the spill the country's most significant maritime environmental disaster.Just WatchedOil disaster in New Zealand worseningreplayMore Videos ...Oil disaster in New Zealand worsening 02:48PLAY VIDEOJust WatchedTar balls wash ashore in New ZealandreplayMore Videos ...Tar balls wash ashore in New Zealand 01:54PLAY VIDEOJust WatchedNew Zealand oil spill threatens wildlifereplayMore Videos ...New Zealand oil spill threatens wildlife 02:14PLAY VIDEOMNZ estimates that 200-300 tonnes of oil have leaked from the vessel, which was carrying 1,700 cubic meters (450,000 gallons) of fuel. The agency said a "significant" amount of oil is expected to come ashore within days between the towns of Mount Maunganui and Maketu in the North Island's Bay of Plenty.Clumps of oil have washed onto Mount Maunganui beach near Tauranga and 53 dead birds have been found and 17 other oil-soaked birds are being treated at a rescue center, MNZ said. The agency said that about 70 containers had fallen off the ship. Eleven of the ship's containers hold hazardous substances and remain on the Rena. MNZ said it is probable that more containers will fall off due to severe weather conditions and the vessel's heavy list, which has worsened. Due to the hazard the containers pose to shipping, MNZ said navigational warnings had been issued and major maritime traffic has been re-routed.Efforts to recover oil from the ship have been a top priority before it can be salvaged, but have been hampered by high winds and strong swells.Worsening weather prompted the ship's crew to be evacuated as a precautionary measure after a mayday call was made on Tuesday.MNZ said naval architects are monitoring the vessel and have placed sensors to provide advance warning should the ship's structure come under too much stress, which the agency said is described as being in "relatively good shape."A rescue center has been set up in Tauranga to clean oil from animals affected by the spill and 15 teams are scouring the coast for oiled wildlife.Officials fear the stricken ship may spill additional oil as its condition deteriorates."I think we'd expect that at some point to have further problems and potentially even break up," Transport Minister Steven Joyce told broadcaster TVNZ.Greenpeace expressed "extreme concern" about the spill and urged the government to avoid using further toxic dispersants."This is an unfortunate illustration of just how difficult it is to deal with oil spills at sea," the organization's Steve Abel said. "Even a slow and relatively accessible oil spill like this one has clearly stretched New Zealand's response capability to its limits."It is also a potential disaster for the blue whales and dolphins presently calving in the area, as well as numerous other marine species."More from asiaMarital rape: Why is it legal in India?'India's Daughter,' the film banned by India: What did it show?Filmmaker: India's ban on rape documentary is 'based on nothing'Powered by Livefyre
