Artworks by GuzBoroda - Covers and illustrations (update 5/26/2010)
Hi everybody!
My name is Paul. Despite that I've been here a couple years this is my first post here. I love this place. I can see there are many masters whose works I admiring. I hope you let me share my artworks with you.
There are some covers for Paizo Pathfinder Companion. I love work with Paizo! They've got a lot of interesting tasks and fabulous style by Wayne Reynolds [deep deep deep bow].
I've got more covers but I can show you only two now.
I've got a lot of book covers for Russian publishers. They don't pay big money and don't have any art direction, so I have to read all books which I've designed and it's fun! I mean read books is fun not an insufficient payment I work on design of the series (logo, fonts, ornament etc) too.
I've got many interior illustrations for Paizo Pathfinder Companions and other board games publishers like Imagine (in France) and Berserk (in Russia).
There are some concepts for Paizo and Russian on-line games.
and finally I've got a dozen of covers for PC-games published by Akella (Russia)
You can see more covers, interior illustrations and concepts on my Homepage.
I hope you'll like it.
Any comments are welcome!

Hey, very nice colour schemes and compositions on these! Those images are very lively and packed, but you make them pleasant to look at. I don't know whether it's your style, but I'd suggest using a little bit more soft edges to push things into third dimention a little more. Because now some parts of the images (for example the black guy fighting a zombie) look a little bit too flat for my taste. This flatness suits the style, but be aware of it!
Oh, and take care not to put the eyes too wide apart - they're about right now, but I think there's little variation in this respect between your characters.
Again, very fun pictures!

Join author Brian Trifon as he shows how to improve music and audio productions using virtual instruments in Logic Pro. This course tours the program's virtual instruments, including the ES2 hybrid synthesizer, Sculpture physical modeling synthesizer, EFM1 FM synthesizer, the EVOC 20 vocoder, the Ultrabeat drum synthesizer, and the EXS24 sampler, and shows how to achieve various effects with each instrument's parameters. The course also covers working with oscillators and filters, understanding signal flow, creating custom synthesizer patches, adding effects, synthesizing speech, creating a library of custom sound samples, and much more.
Virtual Instruments with Logic Pro will be updating on a monthly basis, eventually covering all the virtual instruments in the application. Look for the latest movies here and on the lynda.com blog.
All right! This is a little musical example using ES 1 where I've got five instances of ES 1 for the different melody and bass sounds and lead sounds and things. The drums are made with UltraBeat, and then they're rendered out to audio. And UltraBeat is Logic's built-in drum machine, which we'll take a look at in one of the later chapters. So here's the example. (music playing) Okay, so let's show you what's going on with each different instance of ES 1 here.
So in the beginning, it has this kind of funky lead sound that's going on, so I'll just play that part so you can hear it. (music playing) And notice that actually the instrument below it is playing the same thing. I'll play those together. (music playing) So they're just layered. They are playing exactly the same MIDI part, but this one below, this deep bass one is more filtered down==it's just a sub-tone underneath. So they're kind of combine together to make one sound.
So first let's take a look at this top one, and then I'll show you the bottom one more. So essentially, what's going on here-- (music playing) --is mainly this ADSR via velocity is modulating the filter cutoff. So if we take a look, this filter, it's pretty far down. So depending on the velocity of these notes--and if we take a look at the MIDI part, down here you can see by the different colors, that there is a lot of different velocity strengths that are happening, and so that's modulating the Cutoff and that's really what gives the dynamic to this particular sound.
Also, I'm going to close this interface for a moment, but let's take a look at the channel strip. See, I've this sending to a bus here and on this bus, there is distortion and reverb. So if I don't send to this bus, it sounds a little bit different, right? To me, it sounds a little bit more synthetic, and I like the sound of that, but I want it to do is I want it a little bit more crunchy and controlled in a way. So this bus that I'm sending to here as has a clip distortion and the Space Designer reverb, and I'll show you what's going on with both of those.
So first if I mute the Space Designer, let's do it what this sounds like with this clip distortion here. (music playing) So, pretty crunchy. So I thought that was a little bit much. So the Space Designer, it's actually not set to a reverb setting. One of the really cool things about Space Designer that can easily be overlooked is that it has impulse responses that are part of the built-in Logic library that are speaker cabinets. So depending on if you have the full Logic suite installed, there is actually a category here called Warp Spaces and underneath that, there's a category for Speaker Cabinets.
So that's where I found this one, this Amp Cabinet Speaker, and this is included in the exercise files. So you'll have this impulse response even if you don't have the full set of Logic content installed on your computer. But what this does is it makes it sound like it's running through a speaker cabinet or an amplifier. So I though that was cool, but it's lacking a little bit low ends, but beneath that have exactly the same MIDI part, but it's really filtered down, and this is just creating this sub-bass aspect. You can see the lowpass filter's all the way down, so that's cutting out all of the high frequencies.
Then you combine the two and they just blend together. So that's one way you can layer things and get stuff sounding good. The next synth that we've got here is this ES 1 called filteredSynth, and that's this sound. (music playing) It takes a moment for it to kind of rise up. If you watch the Cutoff knob, you can see that it's automated. (music playing) You can hear there is a lot of movement in this sound.
What's creating the movement is this LFO here. We can look, it's set to full intensity for this Mix control. So you imagine this Mix slider here between the primary and sub-oscillators moving really, fast back and forth every 8th note. So that's what's creating that sense of pitch change because remember, the sub-oscillator here is an octave lower than the primary oscillator. So every time this slider moves up and down, you are hearing a change in octave. So every 8th note, there's this octave change that's happening, and then there is also, of course, the filtering that's going on.
So you can take a look at the automation for that. So if I'm in my Arrange window here and I press the A key on the keyboard, it brings me to automation view, and so then I'll make sure to select ES 1: Cutoff. If you don't see it here, you can just always go to the instrument for ES 1 and you can see all the parameters that you can automate. So I'll just go to Cutoff, and that's where I wrote that automation. If I wanted to add some more automation--which I'll do-- I'm going to set the Automation mode something other than Read, because Read is just going to read back whatever automation I already have.
So I'm going to set it to the Latch parameter. That means anything I move on the ES 1 interface, it's going to write the automation for that and when I let go off it, it's just going to stay at the last value I had it set to. So we'll open up the interface here, and I am going to automate the amount of drive. So I'll just start it from here. So you can see, as I move this Drive control, it's writing the automation for it. So it's very simple to do.
Remember, this Drive is the input level into the filter. (music playing) Okay, so that's enough for that, and you can see it just kept it where my last value was there. And then I want to make sure to switch this back to Read; otherwise, it's just going to continue to write automation if I touch anything. So I don't want to do that. So that wrote the automation, which is cool. And the next thing I've got is this LittlePluck sound here, and that's this one.
(music playing) So you can hear a really short decay, and it's obviously going through reverb. because it's got that long tail to it. Sure enough, when we look at the interface-- take a look at the ADSR, the amplifier envelope here-- you can see that the decay is pretty short. That's mostly what's going on with the sound; it's just the shape of it's short, and the reverb here. We've got a pretty long reverb, 6.7 seconds, Marble Church reverb. And beneath that, this next ES 1, and the last one we've got in here, has kind of a chorusing '80s sound.
And you can see if we look at the global section of ES 1, I've got the Chorus 1 engaged for it. It also has somewhat of a long release. You can hear that aspect of the sound because it naturally kind of fades down. And also there is a little bit of filter FM happening that's being modulated depending on the velocity. So that's adjusting the Cutoff. Remember, that's the triangle wave. From this oscillator, it's hardwired so it can modulate the cutoff at an audio rate, so you get some interesting little distortion artifacts with that.
So let's hear the entire thing one last time. (music playing)

Welcome to seriousseeds.org, we are an INDEPENDENTLY operated website selling ONLY Serious Seeds with NO DIRECT AFFILIATION to seriousseeds.com. This site is dedicated to the only cannabis seeds you will ever need, Seriously!!!
If you're new to the cannabis seeds world you may be completely bewildered as to what strain and variety of cannabis seed to choose. I totally understand, with over 3000 varieties how do you actually decide?
However, if you are a somewhat classy cannabis connoisseur you know why you're here… Serious seeds have been at the forefront of cannabis seeds for over 17 years. Serious seeds never ever believed in the philosophy of the more varieties the better; but only ever believed in fewer strains of the absolute highest quality. Growing from strength to strength, their original strains remain the strongest, highest yielding medicinal cannabis seeds available today.
Serious seeds strains have produced the biggest yields of the strongest smoke I have ever seen from a single plant; and I have been fortunate enough to see many many grow rooms aside from personal. The strength is unsurpassed as is the unique taste and aroma between varieties…
gone are the days of Moroccan black and rocky solids when that's all we had [but amazingly everyone seemed to be happy with that], now it's much easier to grow your own so you don't have to rely on some sleazy drug dealer or gangster to keep you sorted…
And you have a choice of thousands of different varieties to choose from if you really need to. But in all honesty most of them are un tested and unstable at best, and who really needs that much choice?
So I can assure you from experience the only seed bank you'll ever need is Serious seeds!!! Biggest yield, highest strength, best taste, do you honestly need anything else?
This site has been developed in honour of the best cannabis seeds available today [or at least in my opinion] and to save you the unnecessary trial and error and waste of time and money you'll have in finding the perfect variety.
Serious seeds, quality never compromised.

i have a 13 inch macbook pro that i purchased in 2009. i spilled wine on it and now the battery does not charge- will this battery work?
- Asked by Mona S from Clinton, Nj
QA Rechargeable Battery MacBook (Aluminum)
Product No Longer Available
4 Answers from the Community
Yeah, you wouldn't want the wrong size battery. However, if you spilled wine into the computer, I'd bet that the battery is not the problem. It's probably some of the charging circuitry. If the computer mostly works, just doesn't charge, it could be worth taking into an Apple certified repair shop to see if that component can be replaced. If you can, try the computer with a borrowed battery before buying another.
- Answered by Ian P from Seattle
I had a spill and the repair centre said my logicboard was busted. too expensive to repair so i decided to buy a new mac
- Answered by Nj J
Hi this particular battery is for the Macbook Pro unibody 15 inch.
As you mentioned, you require the 13 inch battery, not the 15 inch. Another thing to check would be wether you need the Unibody macbook pro battery or the older version of macbook pro (non-unibody) battery.
all the best

No it will not.

As reproductive rights supporters in Wichita celebrate the recent opening of Southwind Women's Care Center, they also brace themselves for a new round of anti-choice terrorist actions.
Science trumps ideology in the emergency contraception decision. Meanwhile, the depths of the anti-choice domestic terror network in Kansas become clearer.
The failed nomination of Caitlin Halligan brought to attention the shared interests between anti-choice groups and the NRA.
As someone who has worked with abortion providers and defended clinics for many years, I have learned that the only way to prevent anti-abortion protesters (or, "antis") from physically interfering with women (and their accompanying partners, relatives or friends) going into a clinic is by relying on our own efforts – and not laws.
Lawyers for the Department of Justice are still working on putting together the pieces of a network of domestic terrorists targeting Witchita, Kansas.
The First Circuit Court of Appeals has made it clear that women and clinic workers have a right to safely access abortion clinics.
Trust Women's purchase of the building that housed Dr. George Tiller's former health care facility is welcome news, but it must be viewed within the context of the on-the-ground reality that is Kansas abortion policy, politics, and history.
Rogers burned down the American Family Planning Clinic on New Year's Day. Now he will serve ten years in prison.
In addition to imposing unnecessary and damaging limits and requirements on women's medical care, do anti-abortion laws contribute to a social climate in which it is acceptable to terrorize me, my colleagues, and our patients?
Oh, so he just fantasizes about killing people who terminate pregnancies. Much better.

New Crysis MP Map Released/Editor Tutorial
PC Gamer's most recent edition (169) included a CD with a new "exclusive" Crysis multiplayer map and map-making tutorial, along with its Crysis cover page.
The map-making tutorial video is about 9 minutes long and goes into deep detail of the sandbox editor. It appears to have been EA/Crytek made.
The description of the new multiplayer map called "
"US forces have discovered a concentration of alien technology in a remote area deep in the pack ice region north of Greenland. Unforgiving weather and conditions and frequent incursions from North Korean assault units make controlling this site a formidable challenge."
Upon installing, four files are extracted: Arctica.xml, Arctica.dds, Arctica_Loading.dds, and level.pak. A combined size of about 20 megabytes.
I'm still trying to figure out how to check this level out in-game, I replaced the SP demo's island.files with that of Arcticas and I start a new game. I spawn in a bunker/armory similiar to the N. Korean one in the MP Beta map shore. The only reason I can't post some screenshots as well is because I get that "out of combat zone" warning and have 2 seconds to get back into the zone, so it keeps killing me and I keep respawning. Anyone know how I can disable that warning/kill thing that pops up? Anyone have any other ideas on how I'd be able to check out the sexy snow/ice shaders in-game?

FRANCOIS GUILLOT, AFPGetty Images
December 14, 2013
The words "Nelson Mandela, 1918 -2013" and light beams of colors of the South African national flag are seen on the illuminated Eiffel Tower on December 13, 2013 in Paris, as part of a rehearsal for Paris' hommage to the late South African president. The display will be visible on the Eiffel Tower for three nights from December 14. Mandela, the revered icon of the anti-apartheid struggle in South Africa and one of the towering political figures of the 20th century, died in Johannesburg on December 5 at age 95. Mandela, who was elected South Africa's first black president after spending nearly three decades in prison, had been receiving treatment for a lung infection at his Johannesburg home since September, after three months in hospital in a critical state.

News articles on marine conservation
Mongabay.com news articles on marine conservation in blog format. Updated regularly.
Scientists discover new eagle ray imperiled by Japanese pest program (photos)
(01/30/2014) Scientists have described a new species of eagle ray in the northwest Pacific Ocean, which they have named "narutobiei" (Aetobatus narutobiei) after its local name in Japan. While the new species has long been known by scientists, it was clumped together with the longheaded eagle ray (Aetobatus flagellum) for over two hundred years. Splitting the two species has large-scale conservation impacts, according to the paper describing the new species in PLOS ONE.
Giant clams are easy to recognize, but genetics proves there is more than meets the eye
(12/21/2013) Giant clams are among the more easily spotted invertebrates of the marine realm. However, some are actually quite cryptic and distinct species are often difficult to identify, claims a study recently published in PlosOne. Much attention has been focused on charismatic species in research, but the scientists who authored the study argue that giant clams also deserve the spotlight because of the potential threats and present misunderstandings regarding their taxonimical classifications.
Ultraviolet nets significantly reduce sea turtle bycatch
(11/11/2013) Bycatch, a side-effect of commercial fishing in which non-target species are accidentally caught, is linked to severe population declines in several species. Sea turtles are particularly impacted by small-scale coastal gillnetting practices, in which large nets are deployed and indiscriminately snag anything of a certain size that attempts to swim through them. However, that may soon change.
The 'dead' ocean: eyewitness says overfishing has emptied the Pacific
(10/22/2013) An Australian sailor has described parts of the Pacific Ocean as "dead" because of severe overfishing, with his vessel having to repeatedly swerve debris for thousands of kilometers on a journey from Australia to Japan. Ivan MacFadyen told of his horror at the severe lack of marine life and copious amounts of rubbish witnessed on a yacht race between Melbourne and Osaka. He recently returned from the trip, which he previously completed 10 years ago.
California celebrates its inaugural Pacific Leatherback Conservation Day with sobering reality
(10/15/2013) On an isolated beach in Bird's Head Peninsula, Indonesia, a female leatherback turtle shuffles out of the ocean and onto the shore, ready to lay her eggs. Under the cover of night she excavates a hole in the sand, depositing anywhere from 80 to 100 eggs inside. Using her flippers she flicks sand over the eggs, hiding them from potential predators. Then, shuffling away, she returns to the turquoise waters ready to make an 8,500-mile journey across the Pacific Ocean to the California coast.
President's pledge to ban commercial fishing around Pacific island nation slow to materialize
(09/23/2013) In 2010 President Anote Tong of Kiribati made a historic pledge, committing to protect the waters around his island nation in a massive marine protected area. He said the gesture represented Kiribati's contribution to protecting the environment and he urged industrial countries to do the same by cutting their greenhouse gas emissions, which threaten low-lying islands with rising sea levels. The commitment raised Tong's profile, winning him international accolades, and boosted the tiny country's standing in the fight against climate change. But since 2010 questions have begun to emerge about the extent of Tong's commitment.
Mesoamerican Reef needs more local support, says report
(09/13/2013) From massive hotel development through the agriculture industry, humans are destroying the second largest barrier reef in the world: the Mesoamerican Reef. Although global climate change and its effects on reefs via warming and acidification of coastal waters have made recent headlines, local human activities may destroy certain ecosystems before climate change has a chance to do it. The harmful effects of mining, agriculture, commercial development, and fishing in coastal regions have already damaged more than two-thirds of reefs across the Caribbean, in addition to worsening the negative effects of climate change.
Google Earth presents fish-eye view of coral reefs
(08/20/2013) You can now visit up-close and personal some of the world's most imperiled ecosystems on Google Earth: coral reefs. The Google team is working with scientists to provide 360 degree panoramas, similar to Google street-view, to give armchair ecologists a chance to experience the most biodiverse ecosystems under the waves.
Journey to the Edge of Eden: the struggle to preserve Southwest Florida
(08/05/2013) Gary Schmelz, in a Journey to the Edge of Eden, takes us through a wonderful personal account of the conservation history of Southwest Florida. Journey to the Edge of Eden is one part personal memoir similar to the English naturalist Gerald Durrell and one part Florida conservation history. With hilarious stories of unintended naturalist misadventures and recounting conservation "as it happened," a Journey to the Edge of Eden is one of those rare books you read in a coffee shop and with gusto and pride while laughing along out loud at Gary Schmelz stories.
Plan to preserve the world's 'last ocean' killed by Russia
(07/16/2013) As the most pristine marine ecosystem on the planet, Antarctica's Ross Sea has become dubbed the world's "last ocean." Home to an abundance of penguins, whales, orcas, seals, and massive fish, the Ross Sea has so far largely avoided the degradation that has impacted much of the world's other marine waters. However, a landmark proposal to protect the Ross Sea, as well as the coastline of East Antarctica, has failed today due to opposition by Russia.
San Francisco seafood restaurants go sustainable
(07/02/2013) The Seafood Watch Program, first created by Monterey Bay Aquarium in the late 1990s, is arguably the best-known guide to sustainably-caught seafood in the U.S. Listing seafood choices in three categories—green (best choices), yellow (good alternatives), and red (avoid)—the guide informs consumers of the best options. However, it's one thing to create a well-respected guide, and another issues altogether to get producers and consumers to use it. But a newer partnership, the San Francisco Seafood Watch Alliance, is working to bridge this gap. Maggie Ostdahl of Aquarium of the Bay works with the Seafood Watch Restaurant program and restaurants across San Francisco—one of the best places in the country for seafood—to source sustainable seafood. Restaurant partners avoid seafood on the guide's red list.
UN may downgrade Great Barrier Reef's heritage status due to Australia's inaction on threats
(06/17/2013) The federal government insists it is striving to avoid the Great Barrier Reef being listed 'in danger' ahead of a crunch UN meeting, after rejecting a Senate recommendation to block new port developments near the World Heritage ecosystem.
Ocean acidification pushing young oysters into 'death race'
(06/11/2013) Scientists have long known that ocean acidification is leading to a decline in Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) in the U.S.'s Pacific Northwest region, but a new study in the American Geophysical Union shows exactly how the change is undercutting populations of these economically-important molluscs. Caused by carbon dioxide emissions, ocean acidification changes the very chemistry of marine waters by lowering pH levels; this has a number consequences including decreasing the availability of calcium carbonate, which oysters and other molluscs use to build shells.
Costa Rican environmentalist pays ultimate price for his dedication to sea turtles
(06/10/2013) On the evening of May 30th, 26-year-old Jairo Mora Sandoval was murdered on Moin beach near Limón, Costa Rica, the very stretch of sand where he courageously monitored sea turtle nests for years even as risks from poachers rose, including threats at gunpoint. A dedicated conservationist, Sandoval was kidnapped along with four women volunteers (three Americans and one from Spain) while driving along the beach looking for nesting sea turtles. Sandoval was separated from the women—who eventually escaped their captors—but the young Costa Rican was stripped naked, bound, and viciously beaten. Police found him the next day, face-down and handcuffed in the sand; Sandoval died of asphyxiation.
Manta ray tourism worth 28 times more than killing them for Traditional Chinese Medicine
(06/03/2013) A new study in the open access journal PLoS ONE estimates that manta rays are worth $140 million a year in tourism across 23 countries, significantly outweighing the worth of manta ray gill plates, which have become the newest craze in Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Biosphere conservation: monumental action is critical to avert global environmental crisis
(05/20/2013) Human-caused changes to our biosphere—the global total of the world's ecosystems—are now so great and alarmingly rapid that human lives and societies undoubtedly face epic challenges in the near future as our biosphere deteriorates, planetary boundaries are reached, and tipping points exceeded. We may survive, we may painfully adapt, but it is a fair bet that grave hardship, loss, and sacrifice lay ahead. The nature and extent of impacts among human populations hinges on how successfully we respond to the biosphere crisis with extraordinary leadership, balanced solutions applied at global scales, and unprecedented cooperation—or not.
Industrialized fishing has forced seabirds to change what they eat
(05/14/2013) The bleached bones of seabirds are telling us a new story about the far-reaching impacts of industrial fisheries on today's oceans. Looking at the isotopes of 250 bones from Hawaiian petrels (Pterodroma sandwichensis), scientists have been able to reconstruct the birds' diets over the last 3,000 years. They found an unmistakable shift from big prey to small prey around 100 years ago, just when large, modern fisheries started scooping up fish at never before seen rates. The dietary shift shows that modern fisheries upended predator and prey relationships even in the ocean ocean and have possibly played a role in the decline of some seabirds.
New endangered list for ecosystems modeled after 'Red list' for species
(05/09/2013) The IUCN has unveiled the first iteration of its new Red List of Ecosystems, a ranking of habitats worldwide.
Scientists discover that marine animals disperse seagrass
(05/09/2013) Lesser known than coral reefs, marine seagrass ecosystems are rich in biodiversity and are powerhouses when it comes to sequestering carbon dioxide. Yet, much remains unknown about the ecology of seagrass beds, including detailed information on how seagrass spread their seeds and colonize new area. Now a recent study in Marine Ecology Progress Series documents that several species of marine animal are key to dispersing seagrass, overturning the assumption that seagrass was largely dispersed by abiotic methods (such as wind and waves).
Featured video: saving sea turtles in Mexico's Magdalena Bay
(05/09/2013) A new short film, Viva la tortuga documents the struggle to save loggerhead and green sea turtles in Magdalena Bay, Mexico. Once a region for a massive sea turtle meat market, the turtles now face a new threat: bycatch. Loggerhead sea turtles are drowning in bottom-set gillnets, unable to escape from the nets once entangled. The issue has even raises threats of trade embargoes from the U.S.
Are seagulls killing whales in Patagonia?
(05/08/2013) It sounds ludicrous, but it could just be true: scientists say seagulls may be responsible for hundreds of southern right whale moralities off the Argentine coastline. Since 2003, scientists have documented the deaths of 605 southern right whales (Eubalaena australis) near Península Valdés which the whales use as a nursery. Notably, 88 percent of these were newborn calves. The death rate is so high that researchers now fear for the whales' long-term survival.
Munching on marine plastic kills sperm whale
(05/07/2013) What do children's toys, balloons, mattresses and plastic bags have in common? They can, along with more non-biodegradable pollutants, be found in the belly of a sperm whale, the topic of a new study in the Marine Pollution Bulletin. The same whale that swallowed Jonah from the Bible, Geppetto from Collodi's Pinocchio, and the crew of the Pequod from Melville's Moby-Dick is now swallowing trash from the Spanish-Mediterranean coast, and in the Strait of Gibraltar.
Breaking the mold: Divya Karnad takes on fisheries and science journalism in India
(04/15/2013) Fishing is not a woman's domain in most countries across the globe. In parts of India there are fishing communities who believe that having a woman onboard a fishing boat brings bad luck. Despite this, Divya Karnad, a scientist who studies marine life in India, has spent several years studying fisheries and their impact on species like sharks and sea turtles. Her work forms a part of global efforts to track declining marine species and encourage more sustainable fishing.
Proposed coal plant threatens Critically Endangered Philippine cockatoo
(04/02/2013) One kilometer off the Philippine island of Palawan lies the Rasa Island Wildlife Sanctuary; here forest grows unimpeded from a coral island surrounded by mangroves and coral reefs. Although tiny, over a hundred bird species have been recorded on the island along with a major population of large flying foxes, while in the waters below swim at least 130 species of coral fish, three types of marine turtles, and that curious-looking marine mammal, dugongs. Most importantly, perhaps, the island is home to the world's largest population of Philippine cockatoos (Cacatua haematuropygia), currently listed as Critically Endangered. But, although uninhabited by people, Rasa Island may soon be altered irrevocably by human impacts.
Sharks and rays win protections at CITES
(03/11/2013) Today, for the first time, sharks and rays have won the vote for better protection under CITES (the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species), the world's regulating body on trade in threatened species. Five shark species and manta rays, which includes two species, have received enough votes to be listed under Appendix II of CITES, which means tougher regulations, but not an outright ban. However, the votes could still be overturned before the end of the meeting.
Has shark fin consumption peaked at 100M dead sharks per year?
(03/05/2013) While a new study warns that up to 100M sharks are killed annually, there are signs out of China that demand for shark fin may be on the decline. A study published last week in the journal Marine Policy estimated shark deaths at 100 million in 2000 and 97 million in 2010, suggesting a slight drop in shark killing. Meanwhile reports out of China in recent months suggest an accelerating decline in shark fin consumption. China is the top market for shark fin, which is consumed as a status symbol, typically at wedding ceremonies and business dinners.
Leatherback sea turtles suffer 78 percent decline at critical nesting sites in Pacific
(02/27/2013) The world's largest sea turtle, the leatherback (Dermochelys coriacea), is vanishing from its most important nesting sites in the western Pacific, according to a new study in Ecosphere. Scientists found that leatherback turtle nests have dropped by 78 percent in less than 30 years in the Bird's Head Peninsula on the island of New Guinea. Worryingly, these beaches account for three-fourths of the western Pacific's distinct leatherback population; globally the leatherback is listed as Critically Endangered by the IUCN Red List, the highest rating before extinction.
From the brink of extinction: elephant seals stage remarkable comeback
(01/23/2013) In the 19th century the Northern Pacific Elephant was thought to be extinct until a small population was discovered on an island of Baja California in 1892. Since then, the species has staged a remarkable comeback which was greatly accelerated by protective measures adopted by the U.S. and Mexican governments. The recovery is especially evident on the beaches of California's Año Nuevo State Park. Until the 1950s so individuals were observed in the park. In the 1960s pups started to be born on Año Nuevo's sandy shores. By the 1990s thousands of pups where born each year, capping the elephant seal's turnaround. 'Beachmaster', a new film by Christopher Gervais and Stan Minasian, tells the conservation success story of their recovery.
Telling the story of the father of sea turtle conservation
(01/21/2013) In 1959, visionary Archer Carr founded the world's first conservation group devoted solely to sea turtles. Working with these marine denizens in Costa Rica, Carr was not only instrumental in changing local views of the turtles—which at the time were being hunted and eaten at unsustainable rates—but also in establishing basic practices for sea turtle conservation today. Now a new film by Two-Head Video, Inc. tells the story of Carr's work and the perils still facing marine turtles today.
Saving manta rays from the fin trade
(01/15/2013) Tens of millions of sharks and rays are killed each year to meet demand for shark fin, a delicacy across East Asia. But while the plight of sharks has gained prominence in international environmental circles in recent years, the decline in rays has received considerably less attention. A new film, Manta Ray of Hope, aims to change that. Produced by cinematographer, scuba diver, and marine conservationist Shawn Heinrichs, Manta Ray of Hope offers a look at the mysterious and magnificent world of the world's largest ray, the manta ray. The film highlights both the threats mantas face as well as some of the people who are working to save them.
Obama triples area of protected California coastline
(12/20/2012) Today President Obama announced the government would add almost 3,000 square miles of California coastline to the National Marine Sanctuary system, roughly tripling its size, reports the Sierra Club.
Measuring nutrient pollution in pristine waters: Puerto Rico's Vieques Island
(12/10/2012) Life in the ocean require nutrient, but too much of a good thing can be hugely detrimental. Nutrient pollution from agricultural and industrial runoff causes serious ecological harm in the world's marine waters, at times producing massive "dead zones" where much of the dissolved oxygen has been stripped making it difficult for most marine animals to live there. A new study by scientists with the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) attempts to establish a baseline of nutrient levels in the largely pristine waters around the island of Vieques off of Puerto Rico.
Jeff Corwin talks sharks
(12/04/2012) Sharks are among the most feared of all the world's predators, yet humans kill tens of millions of sharks for every person who falls victim to shark attack. Part of our fear stems from lack of understanding. A new eBook however tries to change that. Jeff Corwin, an Emmy Award Winning TV host, has this week released Jeff's Explorer Series: SHARKS, the first of a new eBook series, which Corwin likens to the 21st century version of an encyclopedia. The eBook is rich with video, images, and text. It is narrated by Corwin.
Pledge to end wildlife trafficking for Wildlife Conservation Day
(12/04/2012) Today has been dubbed the first ever global Wildlife Conservation Day. To honor it, a coalition of conservation groups—including WWF and Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS)—are working to raise awareness of illegal wildlife trafficking. Poaching for traditional medicine, bushmeat, and other products has put innumerable species at risk, including tigers, rhinos, sharks, and elephants.
Could rebuilding global fisheries save hundreds of billions of dollars?
(11/26/2012) Global fisheries are gutting the world economy by US$13 billion annually, according to an economic analysis published July 13 in the journal PLoS ONE. National subsidies that encourage overfishing cause the most losses, the analysis claims. However, researchers believe that allowing fish stocks to rebuild and making fishing more efficient could reverse these losses, leading to net gains of US$600 to US$1,400 billion within 50 years. Such savings won't come cheaply, the analysis suggests. Rebuilding fisheries worldwide could cost US$130 to US$292 billion, the researchers estimate. Most of the cost would go toward retraining or retiring nearly half of the world's 35 million fisheries workers.
BP fined $4.5 billion for Gulf of Mexico oil spill, but company may spend more buying its own stocks
(11/19/2012) Last week the U.S. federal government fined BP $4.5 billion for the Deepwater Horizon disaster in 2010, which killed 11 workers and leaked nearly 5 million barrels of oil into the Gulf of Mexico. The oil giant also plead guilt to 12 felonies and two misdemeanors. However, even this fine—the largest in U.S. history—failed to dampen shareholder support of BP: stocks actually rose one percent following the announcement. Meanwhile, according to the Sunday Times, BP plans to spend $5.9 billion (over a billion more than the fine) buying back its own shares in order to boost stock prices.
Climate change threatens population of Earth's largest sea turtle
(11/19/2012) A drier, hotter climate in Central America could wipe out the population of leatherback sea turtles from the eastern Pacific Ocean by the year 2100, according to a grim projection published on July 1 in Nature Climate Change. Already critically endangered from fisheries by-catch and historic egg poaching, leatherbacks can hardly accommodate another human-related threat. Yet scientists still hold out hope for interventions that could save the turtles.
Photos: Mozambique creates Africa's biggest marine protected area
(11/13/2012) Last week, the East African nation of Mozambique announced it was protecting 10,411 square kilometers (4,020 square miles) of coastal marine waters, making the new Marine Protected Area (MPA) the biggest on the continent. The protected area, dubbed the Primeiras and Segundas Archipelago ("First" and "Second" islands), includes ten islands as well as mangrove forests, rich coral reefs, and seagrass ecosystems.
Above the ocean: saving the world's most threatened birds
(11/01/2012) A life on the ocean is a perilous one for any bird. They must expend energy staying aloft for thousands of miles and learn to be marathon swimmers; they must seek food beneath treacherous waves and brave the world's most extreme climates; they must navigate the perils both of an unforgiving sea and far-flung islands. Yet seabirds, which includes 346 global species that depend on marine ecosystems, have evolved numerous strategies and complex life histories to deal with the challenges of the sea successfully, and they have been doing so since the dinosaur's last stand. Today, despite such a track record, no other bird family is more threatened; yet it's not the wild, unpredictable sea that endangers them, but pervasive human impacts.
A new way to measure the ocean's health
(10/23/2012) A diverse array of institutions have come together to release a new, revolutionary ocean health assessment called the "Ocean Health Index." Researchers formed the index in order to gauge the health of the world's oceans. The index is the result of a huge collaborative effort, including top researchers crossing a diverse range of disciplines such as the National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis (NCEAS) and Conservation International.
Penguins face a slippery future
(09/26/2012) Penguins have spent years fooling us. With their image seemingly every where we turn—entertaining us in animated films, awing us in documentaries, and winking at us in commercials—they have made most of us believe they are doing just fine; the penguin's charming demeanor has lulled us into complacency about their fate. But penguin populations are facing historic declines even as their popularity in human society rises. Overfishing is decimating some of their prey species, climate change is shifting their resources and imperiling their habitat, meanwhile pollution, such as oil spills, are putting even healthy colonies at risk. Now, a young organization, the Global Penguin Society (GPS), is working to save all of the world's 18 penguin species by working with scientists, governments, and local communities.
Strangest island in the Caribbean may be a sanctuary for critically endangered coral
(07/16/2012) Don't feel bad if you've never heard of Navassa Island, even though it's actually part of the U.S. according to the Guano Islands Act of 1856. This uninhabited speck between Haiti and Jamaica, barely bigger than New York City's Central Park, has a bizarre and bloody history—and may be a crucial refuge for endangered coral in the Caribbean.
Indonesia eco-newswrap: farmers threaten to immolate themselves over plantation plan
(06/28/2012) Pulau Island farmers are threatening to immolate themselves after the Indonesian Ministry of Forestry has ignored their request to stop a part of their island from being converted into eucalyptus plantations by PT Riau Andalan Pulp and Paper. A letter from the farmers, who are members of the Riau Farmer Union, to Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono received no response, and the activists say 10 of them will travel to the presidential palace in Jakarta on June 25 and burn themselves alive in protest.
Cowards at Rio?: organizations decry 'pathetic' agreement
(06/20/2012) As world leaders head to Rio de Janeiro for the UN Summit on Sustainable Development, environmental and poverty groups are denouncing the last-minute text agreed on by dignitaries as "pathetic," (Greenpeace), a "damp squib" (Friends of the Earth), "a dead end" (Oxfam), and, if nothing changes, "a colossal waste of time" (WWF). "We were promised the 'future we want' but are now being presented with a 'common vision' of a polluter's charter that will cook the planet, empty the oceans and wreck the rain forests," the head of Greenpeace, Kumi Naidoo, said. "This is not a foundation on which to grow economies or pull people out of poverty, it's the last will and testament of a destructive twentieth century development model."
World failing to meet promises on the oceans
(06/14/2012) Despite a slew of past pledges and agreements, the world's governments have made little to no progress on improving management and conservation in the oceans, according to a new paper in Science. The paper is released just as the world leaders are descending on Rio de Janeiro for Rio+20, or the UN Summit on Sustainable Development, where one of the most watched issues is expected to be ocean policy, in part because the summit is expected to make little headway on other global environmental issues such as climate change and deforestation. But the new Science paper warns that past pledges on marine conservation have moved too slowly or stagnated entirely.
Australia sets aside 40 percent of its waters for protection
(06/14/2012) In an announcement to coincide with the beginnings of the UN's Rio+20 Summit on Sustainable Development, Australia has announced ambitious plans to protect 3.1 million square kilometers (1.19 million square miles) of its ocean, including the Coral Sea. If enacted, the proposition will increase Australia's marine protected areas from 27 to 60, covering about 40 percent of Australia's waters.
Forgotten Species: the wonder-inducing giant clam
(06/11/2012) The first time I ever saw a giant clam was at a ride in Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom. My family and I piled into the Nautilus submersible at the 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea: Submarine Voyage and descended into the playtime depths. While we saw sea turtles, sharks, lobsters, mermaids, and even a sea monster, the creature that lingered in my mind most was the giant clam, raising and closing its pearly shell in the weedy abyss. Of course, none of these aquatic wonders were real—they were animatronics—but to a child with a vivid imagination they stirred within me the deep mystery of the boundless ocean, and none more so than that monstrous clam with its gaping maw.
Regulations help fish, and fishermen, recover in the U.S.
(05/30/2012) Marine fish populations in the U.S. are generally recovering, according to a new report by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). Last year six fish populations reached healthy levels in the U.S., boosting the total number of fish populations that have recovered to 27 since 2000. The success is due to the implementation of science-based annual catch limits which regulate how many fish are caught every year.
Nearly 2,000 fish species traded in U.S. tropical aquarium market
(05/24/2012) The U.S. tropical aquarium market poses problems and opportunities for conservation, according to a landmark study published in the open-access journal PLoS ONE. The study reviewed import records in the U.S. for one year (2004-2005) and found that over 11 million wild tropical fish from 1,802 species were imported from 40 different countries. While the number of fish species targeted surprised researchers, the total amount of fish imported was actually less than expected.
Seagrass beds store 20 billion tons of carbon
(05/22/2012) Just below the ocean's surface lies a carbon powerhouse: seagrass meadows. New research in Nature Geoscience estimates that the world's seagrass meadows conservatively store 19.9 billion metric tons of carbon, even though the threatened marine ecosystems make up only 0.2 percent of Earth's surface.

I just want everyone to know that if you decide to follow me, I check my followers daily and always follow back. I also return all comments left on my blog site, so be sure to post your own site address so I can…

Originally written on Philly Sports Muse | Last updated 4/7/12
Philadelphia Eagles Pro Bowl LT Jason Peters had successful surgery for his ruptured right Achilles tendon on Tuesday. Even before the procedure was performed, speculation about a possible timeline for Peters' return was rampant. Now that the surgery has taken place, there can begin to be some indication of how Peters' timeframe for recovery. But we know he's not going to be back for a while. The instant that Peters' injury was announced, we knew the Eagles had to do something to attempt to replace him. They signed King Dunlap to a one-year deal. A good move, but not the answer. While the Birds will likely look to add some depth to the offensive line during the draft, a rookie wasn't a desirable option. Changing the level of protection for Mike Vick against some of the best d-linemen in in the league from a 5-time Pro Bowl tackle to a rookie? Yeah, not the best idea if it can be avoided. Philadelphia acted quickly to explore the free agent tackles in free agency, hosting Demetres...

Basic psychology right? The more difficult you are to obtain, the more he wishes just what he angled have.
Well thats just what will certainly take place at first. However take that basic psychology a step further as well as just what youll find is this once you finally offer him things he really wants, it wont seem so excellent anymore! This is known as cat-string concept. If you dangle a string over a pet cat, it will keep scraping at it in a desperate wish to have the object. Obviously, when you ultimately give up the elusive string, the feline does not wish it anymore.

If you regard as well as appreciate yourself, your guy will appreciate and love you!

Google slashes price of LG G Watch to $99 for Black Friday
Google has a sweet Black Friday offer for those looking to buy a smartwatch.
LG Electronics (Korean: LG전자, KRX: 066570, LSE: LGLD) is a South Korean multinational electronics company headquartered in Yeouido-dong, Seoul, South Korea and the flagship subsidiary of the LG Group.

The company was originally established in 1958 as GoldStar, producing radios, TVs, refrigerators, washing machines, and air conditioners.

Before the corporate name change to LG, household products were sold under the brand name of Lucky, while electronic products were sold under the brand...

Old friends and beloved genre vets Stuart Gordon, Jeffrey Combs and Dennis Paoli have launched a new Kickstarter campaign in support of the film version of their amazing, lauded stage play about Edgar Allan Poe, NEVERMORE.

Why is Dumbo rated G?
Official MPAA Rating: Dumbo is rated G for
Please read our content details for this movie to help determine if it is suitable for members of your family. We also encourage you to check our full review and our movie information page.
The movie focuses on the plight of a little elephant with big ears. After being teased and ridiculed by other circus animals and performers, as well as some spectators, his mother attacks the crowd, injuring workers (implied but not shown) and destroying property. Similar consequences occur when a circus act goes wrong. Another act, played for laughs, involves putting the elephant in a burning building while the clowns attempt to rescue him. Some characters are shown undressing in silhouette. The pain of the mother/son separation is poignantly portrayed. Accidental alcohol consumption results in drunkenness and hallucinations of pink elephants. A character smokes a cigar.

I have a friend who refuses to tell me her age because "people judge a woman on her age." She has adult kids and if she happens to mention that it is one of their birthdays and you ask her how old the kid is she will say she cannot remember in case someone does some math based on how old she was when she got married or whatever. It gets very convoluted and I avoid any mention of age of anything around her.
Admiral Janeway is, of course, gorgeous. Beautiful skin, hair the colour of a nickel. I think there is no botox in the future just sonic peels and other hot stuff that keeps you looking naturally glowy. Maybe they can delay menopause for a few decades without having hormonal backlashes. Or maybe they just have great treatments for cosmetic and other signs of aging like osteoporosis.

The spatially dependent neutron temperature profile measured by flux perturbing activation probes is correlated with the actual one-dimensional profile via a new singular Fredholm integral equation of the second kind. In time-of-flight measurements, the integral equation reduces to a singular Volterra type. A distinct anomalous profile deformation effect is theoretically predicted to be associated with each of these two techniques. The analytical investigation of the anomalous effects for neutron rethermalization experiments established that their magnitude should be far less than the standard errors of the associated techniques of measurement.

1793 Half Cent, Remarkable AU55 Condition1793 1/2 C Bent Cap, Bunched Leaves AU55 PCGS. B-2, C-2, R.3. Formerly offered as lot 6090 in our FUN Sale from January of this year, where it was described as, "The 1793 half cent holds an important place in U.S. coinage history. The first coin of this denomination to be produced by the Mint, this issue is also a coveted one-year type. Breen (Encyclopedia of United States Half Cents: 1793-1857) believes that the Philadelphia Mint prepared two obverse and three reverse dies for this issue between April and July, 1793. The obverse design was based on sketches prepared by David Rittenhouse, who in turn relied heavily on Augustin Dupre's attractive Libertas Americana medal of 1782. On July 20, the first 7,000 pieces were produced, followed by 24,934 coins on July 26, and a further 3,400 pieces on September 18. These deliveries totaled a mere 35,334 pieces.
The present variety is the second scarcest die marriage of this issue after B-1, C-1. Since Breen's (1983) Condition Census for B-2, C-2 includes three XF coins, the present Choice AU example easily qualifies for this important status. This is a remarkably appealing representative, and it is the finest 1793 half cent that we have offered in several years. Both sides are evenly toned in crimson-brown shades. The strike is both expertly centered and exceptionally bold. For accuracy, we note that the reverse is rotated several degrees clockwise in relation to the obverse. There are a few small abrasions on the obverse and green verdigris has gathered between some of the leaves in the reverse wreath, but we stress that the surfaces possess nearly unsurpassable eye appeal for the issue. A lovely coin that makes a significant contribution to the importance of this sale." The coin realized $17,250 in that sale. (NGC ID# 2222, PCGS# 1000)

The proposed project is to write and publish a two volume "rebuild and insurance" workbook series that assist disaster survivors in recovering from disasters with knowledge and dignity with easy to follow guidance. Having been intimately involved in the rebuild and insurance recovery of thousands of disaster victims from multiple disasters, Deena Raver, County of San Diego Rebuild Liaison, and George Kehrer, Executive Director of CARe, have found successful methods of teaching and guiding survivors through the complicated process of insurance settlement and rebuilding their homes. Both George and Deena have led hundreds of workshops on these processes and found that having a workbook, prepared in advance would greatly help the process. A workbook like this would also help those who do not benefit from having a loss during a declared disaster such as a smaller group or individual losses.
