Friendly, helpful staff. Nice sized room and bathroom, good shower. Comfortable and reasonably clean. Excellent breakfast and facilities.
Noisy room from other people and fridge! Towels not changed and basin not cleaned overnight, decaf coffee not replenished. Very awkward parking, steep uphill drive with difficult right angled turn to space, with little room for error.

Idyllic countryside position, conveniently located not far from the main road to Lyme Regis. Pleasant, relaxed welcome from John. Plenty of space in the suite with double bedroom, separate bathroom (enormous bath/shower!) and separate sitting room/kitchenette. The fridge was very useful, also the TV in the sitting room/kitchenette and the TV/DVD player in the bedroom. Amazing view across the Axe Valley! Friendly herd of cows opposite. Ample, tasty breakfast brought up to the room. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Nothing much wrong.

Thoughtful additions for example a stocked fridge and fresh bread.
Excellent service, room, breakfast, TV in lounge with DVD player, DVD and books provided a good selection.lots of information on local area, things to do, we were given excellent walking instructions to the local pub, a local Indian restaurant was recommended by Sue and John which we really enjoyed. We will be definitely staying in the studio again it was delightful.
Seating area outside studio cramped, it would have been nice to have seating with more space as we enjoyed excellent weather whilst there.
friendly staff, coffee tea facilities clean bed and breakfast , good breakfast in morning
The annexe where we stayed was really clean and had everything that you could want for a short stay. The owners went out of their way to accommodate us, with a gluten-free breakfast and directions to River Cottage where I was doing a course. The weather was brilliant and showed off the beautiful scenery to full advantage.
The only possible nitpick was the table outside the annexe, which had a top which was coming apart.
Nice friendly couple who made us welcome. Large comfortable room with all facilities available. Breakfast was plentiful with tastes catered for.
Was a bit remote for me. The local pub on a duel carrigeway was not ideal. Taxi in & out of Lyme Regis was £15 each way
We stayed a single night in the 'snug' room which was excellent. Great breakfast brought into the room at the required time. John & Sue are great hosts and go out of their way to ensure you enjoy your stay there.
The King room was absolutely Lovely. John and Sue are wonderfully friendly people. The Bedroom is large and spacious with an ensuite with a big double bath to die for. The bed is especially comfy (probably how we managed to sleep through our alarm) The living room area next door is fab too (2 tvs so one can sit in the living room, one in the bedroom) The breakfast was delicious. An overall wonderful stay. Thankyou :)
Room was small, we stayed in the Snug, but it was lovely comfortable and welcoming. The owners have just got it right, all the facilities you need, and the plus of having a balcony. We slept soundly and had a wonderful breakfast brought to us in our room.Thoroughly enjoyed an excellent B&B.
excellent room and facilities great breakfast served in room by very helpful and friendly hosts.
nothing to dislike!
It was such a lovely studio, we were able to be totally free to come and go as we liked. It was great to have our own kitchen area to make drinks and snacks along with a sitting area. Best of all was the morning knock at the door and being served with a delicious cooked breakfast!!
The people running this place have gone out of their (and our) way to making the stay as pleasant as it possibly could have been. They've made sure to think of things you didn't know you needed to think of, but that do contribute for a pleasant stay. Very well equipped rooms with fridge, kettle, microwave, toaster in the lounge and DVD player *with* DVDs, list of nearby restaurants and pubs. Flatscreen in both rooms - We may not have used all of these facilities but appreciate that they were available for use and clean. Upon leaving we were chased up as we had left a jacket in the cupboard (not ours) - very thoughtful.
The wifi was usable but kept disconnecting and reconnecting (though this may well have been a compatibility issue of my old laptop). Also, I'm nitpicking here, 2 out of the 5 bulbs of the lounge light had gone.

Apps That Rise to the Top: Tested and Approved By Teachers
Educators from around the country share their favorite educational apps.
Parenting these days is patrolled by the language police. Sometimes it seems like the worst thing you could ever say to a kid is "Good job!" or the dreaded, "Good girl!" Widely popularized psychological research warns about the "inverse power of praise" and the importance of "unconditional parenting." What are these researchers really getting at? Are the particular words we use to talk to our kids so important? And how do we convey positive feelings without negative consequences?

dc.description.abstract | During the last few years, AIGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) have been intensively studied for high frequency high power applications. In spite of this great interest, device reliability is still an important challenge for the wide deployment of AIGaN/GaN HEMT technology. To fully understand reliability in these devices, it is necessary to consider the electrical, mechanical and thermal properties of the operating AIGaN/GaN transistors. Since AIGaN and GaN are both piezoelectric materials, the coupling among electric field, lattice heating and mechanical characteristics gives rise to large changes in strain field and elastic energy density in the transistors under the pinch-off conditions. Most previous work have studied the inverse piezoelectric effect on device degradations, however, quantitative analysis of this failure mechanism is still needed. In this thesis, we have developed the first fully-coupled electro-thermo-mechanical simulation of AIGaN/GaN HEMTs to study the correlation between the critical voltages of the gate current degradation and the lattice temperature distributions of these devices under the reverse-gate-bias reliability testing. In addition, we have compared the numerical results of our simulations with DC measurements and high resolution thermo-reflectance images, obtaining excellent agreement for both of them. Moreover, our studies suggest a covenient and low-cost way to obtain the reliability characteristics of AIGaN/GaN HEMTs by using the thermo-reflectance measurements of the lattice temperature distributions for those devices. | en_US |

Streaming Media | News
Schools and libraries will soon be able to stream video to computers and mobile devices, at no charge.
OverDrive, a provider of digital books, audiobooks, music and video, has rolled out a pilot program of its new streaming video service at the Los Angeles Public Library (LAPL). The service allows users to borrow videos from the library for viewing on any Web-connected device. The company plan to offer the program to its full network of partner schools and libraries.
Library users can access video two ways, either from their library's e-media platform or through OverDrive Media Station, touchscreen e-book kiosks located in the library. With OverDrive Media Station, users can search for and sample video titles then send it to their device – e-mail, QR code, or SMS -- for checkout. As with other services from the company, titles can be borrowed for a specific length of time, after which they expire from the user's device.
The company plans to roll out pilots with additional libraries this month. A full list of available video titles can be viewed at OverDrive's site.

In America, abortion hits black babies at a rate of more than 3 to 1 greater than whites.
In Asia, Mara Hvistendahl contends that selective abortion has resulted in 163 million fewer girls due to selective abortion in Unnatural Selection (estimate/allegation)
Help needed, please complete the following sentence in light of points made below.
This is not analogous to other genocides because.........
Let's see,
a) Two dozen times more deaths than the holocaust ?
b) All killings intentional and avoidable
c) Victims selected based on membership in a group
d) Targeted group considered to be of lower value/inferior to those not targeted
e) The rest of us are better off without them, scarce resources etc.
f) Millions turn the other way, pretend this isn't a major issue or it isn't really happening.
g) 100% of those who turn the other way now or find the issue minor, did not face this threat at that point in their life
h) How can one identify gender with certainty, while maintaining with a straight face it is not a living creature, identified as human, 100% genetically distinct from the mother and father?
i) Being silently offended does nothing to stop what is happening.
Fetus, Latin for 'little one' - gender neutral, is not the correct word after gender is determined. People don't say they had a baby, they had a little baby boy or a little baby girl. At some point in the past, gender became knowable only at birth. Not true now. Some tests identify gender at 5-6 weeks, ultrasounds show gender starting at 16-20 weeks.
What inanimate object that one freely disposes has gender?
If people are allowing the 'little one' to grow into a 'little boy' or a 'little girl' before killing it selectively, what is the difference - morally - between doing that and killing it after birth? It looks like a similar act to me.
6th Commandment? Thou shalt not .... do what ??
Comments? Someone on the board who cares about women's rights and supports abortion rights should come out and explain how killing 163 million girls for gender reasons only is consistent with that. (Should be interesting!) Anyone who is pro-life but considers it to be a minor or single issue not tied to dignity, principles or respect for life otherwise should explain exactly how that is so. Which of the other commandments did God intend to be negotiable?

Death Penalty Debate
History and Debate of Death Penalty
Criminal punishment is a huge source of controversy in the United States. Opponents often argue that innocent people are sometimes executed and that the main motive is revenge, not true justice. Those who support the death penalty debate that the punishment offers retribution for victims of murder and is more cost efficient than offering life sentences in prison. Whether or not the death penalty will remain legal in the United States has yet to be seen.
For Death Penalty
Pro51% of members
Comment: Justice must be done to these killers
Comment: The death penalty is the only sure way of keeping murderers from murdering again. Criminals who are alive have been released just to murder again, while others with life sentences kill jailmates in prison. A criminal has less motive to murder when he/she knows that capital punishment is in store. It also costs much more to provide food and water for a murderer years and years until they die instead of putting them to rest right then.
Comment: Only when it's needed.
Comment: Some crimes are meant to be inexcusable.
Comment: 12 "Anyone who strikes a person with a fatal blow is to be put to death. 13 However, if it is not done intentionally, but God lets it happen, they are to flee to a place I will designate. 14 But if anyone schemes and kills someone deliberately, that person is to be taken from my altar and put to death. 15 "Anyone who attacks their father or mother is to be put to death. 16 "Anyone who kidnaps someone is to be put to death, whether the victim has been sold or is still in the kidnapper's possession. 17 "Anyone who curses their father or mother is to be put to death. 18 "If people quarrel and one person hits another with a stone or with their fist and the victim does not die but is confined to bed, 19 the one who struck the blow will not be held liable if the other can get up and walk around outside with a staff; however, the guilty party must pay the injured person for any loss of time and see that the victim is completely healed. 22 "If people are fighting and hit a pregnant woman and
Comment: Death penalty is all about delivering proper justice and preventing heinous criminals as mentioned, from committing further crimes by escaping prison or inside it. The right to life is among the many rights a normal citizen has. I reiterate, just as sentencing people to prison takes away their right to movement, affiliation, etc, the death penalty is another sentence that takes away their right to life. When people commit certain acts of malevolence like, multiple murders, rape, torture, etc, they simple forgo their right to live. Again, this is not devaluing a life but rather uplifting the value of the innocent life that had been abused or taken away by the said criminal.
Comment: The punishment must be slightly worse than the crime, or you make the crime worth committing. It's like buying a product. They want the product (their actions) but you need to make the product not worth the cost.
Comment: Some people deserve the death penalty, if someone has killed more than one person, they should get the death penalty, life in prison should be for those cases where there is even the slightest doubt that the person may be innocent or there are still things to be investigated. right now the world is facing prison overcrowding, executing the worst of the worst would free up space and act as a very real deterrent, to would be criminals.
Comment: Better than giving scum free room and board and three meals for life
Comment: The problem isn't the death penalty, it is the rare occasions where people undeserving of it are sentenced to it.

Comment: The death penalty is a malicious, ineffectual waste of money. I don't support it in any circumstances.
Comment: "How can we teach that killing is wrong by killing?" Asides from being the height of hypocrisy, the UK does not have the death penalty but (some of) the USA does. If it was an effective deterrent then the UK would have a much higher murder rate than the USA. Is this the case? No. Therefore it is not an effective deterrent.
Comment: This is a very old US punishment and should be elimiated. There should be life-longe penalties instead or at least psyhological intervention. Why, because this punishment is old, originating from the medieval ages. The GB banned them in the 19th century as the most of the world did to. Crimes need more rehabilitations, and less inequality in income is really important.
Comment: With the death penalty the people who are exicuting the person are just as bad as the person their exicuting
Comment: Unnecessary.
Comment: Punishing killing with more death? You kind of show that life isn't all that valuable. Two people die, showing life is not worth too much.
Comment: Life sentences are so much better and it isn't as cruel or bloody. That way, in case someone is actually innocent, they can get a chance to give proof to police. Killing and revenge aren't the answers to everything.
Comment: killing someone because they made some mistakes are not right way to deal with things as that would only further increase crimes the same way as some states have a 3 strikes law, if someone know it don't make a different between 1 or 10 then it would be easier to just finish off the 9 ones left even if the first one was by a accident, if nothing else a least limit such penalty to people who can be confirmed malice and commits really seriously crimes like serial-killers and such....
Comment: Putting aside subjective moral considerations, the death penalty is more expensive and does not actually deter crime, according to studies.
Comment: I am against using the death penalty as a punishment. However, it makes no difference whether the death penalty remains in place or is abolished because people who cannot control their own anger and hatred toward others and decide to take the law into their own hands will still keep killing other people anyway.

http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2005-05-06-abramoff-bush_x.htm In President Bush's first 10 months, GOP fundraiser Jack Abramoff and his lobbying team logged nearly 200 contacts with the new administration as they pressed for friendly hires at federal agencies and sought to keep the Northern Mariana Islands exempt from the minimum wage and other laws, records show.... Abramoff, a $100,000-plus fundraiser for Bush, is now under criminal investigation for some of his lobbying work. His firm boasted its lobbying team helped revise a section of the Republican Party's 2000 platform to make it favorable to its island client.... The reception Abramoff's team received from the Bush administration was in stark contrast to the chilly relations of the Clinton years. Abramoff, then at the Preston Gates firm, scored few meetings with Clinton aides and the lobbyist and the islands vehemently opposed White House attempts to extend U.S. labor laws to the territory's clothing factories. * * * While politics is dirty business, the evidence really is starting to roll in just how corrupt the Republican Party has become. Is it a result of the one-party government not having the normal checks and balances or is because the Republican philosophy allows corruption to flourish? Wonder where personal responsibility enters into this?

Harry, you're WRONG! The Republicans are lying, and suggesting that any Democrat who took money from Indian tribes took money from Abramoff. I hope you'll join me in being disgusted with the corruption and dishonesty of the Republican leadership. http://www.canofun.com/blog/videos/2006/DeanAbramoffDemocrats.asx
Wolf Shill Blitzer couldn't get the answer the RNC was hoping for.. Love that sigh at the end. Poor Wolfie.
Stop it! You both (libs and cons) look like complete idiods defendin your respective parties in this scandal! Pigs at the same trough - end of story, no one gets hurt...
Looks like we're all getting it wrong. Abramoff is really a good guy who has been unjustly criticised, so states a Republican congressman. Maybe this guy's not running for office again. http://www.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/01/09/rohrabacher.abramoff.ap/index.html
Rorabacher's a total piece of shyte, but what about the other recipients of his fundraising? What do they have to say? ...The silence is deafening...
Wistah, back up your claim (lest you look like an idiot). So far there's no evidence that the Democrats got money from Abramoff. I'm not saying the Democrats are saints, but they're not nearly as corrupt as the Republicans.
Lest YOU look like an idiot, Patters. Unless you want to split political hairs, try to tell us all what makes dems different from repubs...to me, they're all republicrats. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/graphic/2005/12/12/GR2005121200286.html
It's unbelievable how each day NAMES of Democrats taking Abramoff money comes up right alongside the Republicans and the sore losing liberals are still trying to deny it, it's becoming "Comical". It must be true, "Liberals Are Looneys"
Harry, perhaps its because of your lack of education, but you're being duped by the Republican Party, or do you have other sources to support your contention that the Democrats have been taking Abramoff money? These links are from opensecrets which lists who received money from Abramoff. They are all Republicans: http://www.opensecrets.org/indivs/s...tEmploy=&txtCand=&txt2000=Y&txt1998=Y&Order=N http://www.opensecrets.org/indivs/s...=3&Cycle1=2006&Cycle2=2004&Cycle3=2002&Page=1 It is true that Democrats got money from some of the lobbying firms Abramoff worked for and from some of his clients, but that's not illegal, and not what the issue is. Try reading up on the issue rather than just sounding ignorant. So far, no Democrats have been linked to Abramoff money.
Really, because I haven't seen that many Democratic names compared to Republicans. In the Washington Post David Broder talks about the "K Street Project". This is where Delay moved Republican staffers into similiar positions with law firms and lobbies, and key corporate trade associations. Abramoff's key assistant was a former aid to Delay, not Kennedy. Republicans control the house, not Democrats. Are you saying that Abramoff bribed the same number of Dem's as Republicans because of some type of equality action? No, the Republicans are in power and the number of dirty transactions are heavily Republican. When this scandal begins to get uncovered, not only will there substantially be more Republicans involved, but in addition there will be more laws that have been found broken and this just may mushroom. I guess its how you look at things: (D) Rep. Kennedy took contributions from Abramoff! Then you find threads here saying Kennedy is guilty of taking bribes, tho there is no other information in the article to merit that view. On the other hand, Republican Speaker of the House Hastert, took contributions from Abramoff and the following week authored a letter co-signed by Delay to the Gaming commission. The letter was very unusual. Jenna Band, a lobbyist said, " I do this for a living and I have never seen a letter like this before. It was incredibly unusual for that group of people, who do not usually weigh in on Indian issues, to express such a strong opinion about a particular project not in any of their home states." I don't know this Jenna Band person, but logic and evidence paints a pretty good picture. But its how you look at things. I was watching Hard Ball interviewing Kate O'brien (Republican mouthpiece) and she didn't think there was any problem with any other high ranking Republicans namely the Speaker of the House, which was in stark contrast to (R) Joe Scarborough who was aghast at the Speaker's actions. So fight amongst yourselves, we will see soon enough as the aides of congressmen are indicted, and there will be no equality concerning the indictments.
1 Oh no, oh God no, Our Democrats would never do that, if it's anything dishonest it's those rotten Republicans. 2 Oh no, their lying, they are trying to drag our "beautiful saintly virgin democrats into this" 3 What, I don't care what they say, I don't believe it. 4 Well if he took money he probably didn't know he was taking money? 5 Well if he took money he probably didn't think there was anything wrong with it. 6 Well if he took money it was OK, he's a democrat. 7 Well the republicnas took more that the democrats. 8 Well he just took a little, that don't count. 9 I DON'T CARE WHAT GOD SAYS, THE DEMOCRATS DIDN'T DO ANYTHING WRONG. 10 I see trees of green, red roses too I see them bloom for me and you And i think to myself: "What a wonderful world!" :bricks:
Lets not blur the issue. The charges against Abramoff are specific. He's not being charged simply because he's a superlobbyist- there are plenty of those who get away with legal bribery all the time. He is being charged in connection with a very specific scam involving ripping off Indian Tribes to line the pockets of very specific congressmen and their associates. There is the other scam involving SunCruise which I'm less familiar with, but also involves a gangland style murder. This isn't about a few junkets. This is about a huge con involving Delay, Ney, Reed, and a few others. This may explain why Bush doesn't feel the need to return all of his campaign money from Jack Abramoff. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/06/22/AR2005062200921_pf.html

Toronto-based GO Transit has opened a new environmentally friendly, state-of-the-art bus facility in Streetsville, which houses and services more than 200 buses, includingGO's double-decker bus fleet. It opened for service February 28."The new Streetsville facility will have a great benefit to GO's bus operations, with very little impact on the environment," said GO Transit Managing Director Gary McNeil. "Building smart, green facilities that can grow with us is integral to our success and part of our future plans."
With the opening of the Streetsville facility, GO is now able to store and service hundreds of buses in the west region. By limiting the distance buses travel to get to the west region, the transit system will save on fuel and fleet mileage, and minimize maintenance requirements. Storing buses in multiple locations also helps improve operations for delivering reliable service to customers. As ridership continues to grow, the Streetsville Bus Facility has the capability to expand to meet demand.
"Expanding our bus facilities to the west gives us more space, more flexibility and more control of our operations," said Paul Finnerty, director, Bus Services.
This facility was designed and built to silver LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) standards, as recognized by the Canada Green Building Council, and will be the first LEED transit building in the greater Toronto area. Balancing human and environmental health, the development of this facility took sustainable site development, water efficiency, energy efficiency, material selection and indoor environmental quality all into consideration.

Transferring data
The Hawaiian Islands Humpback Whale National Marine Sanctuary is one of the world's most important whale habitats, hosting thousands of humpbacks (Megaptera novaeangliae) each winter.
The sanctuary encompasses 1,400 square miles (3,600 km2) in the islands' waters. It was designated by United States Congress on November 4, 1992, as a National Marine Sanctuary to protect the endangered North Pacific humpback whale and its habitat The sanctuary promotes management, research, education and long-term monitoring.
With its boundaries including waters from the shoreline to depths of 600 feet (180 m) in many areas, the sanctuary encompasses a variety of marine ecosystems, including seagrass beds and coral reefs. Much of the sanctuary has fringing coral reefs close to shore and deeper coral reefs offshore. Hawaii's coral reefs are noted for their isolation. Over 25% of all Hawaii's reef animals are endemic, found nowhere else on Earth.
The Hawaii sanctuary is unlike any other National Marine Sanctuary in that it targets a single species, relies entirely on other agencies for enforcement, and has no protective rules such as no-go zones or no-wake zones or no-take zones that are specific to the sanctuary. It even allows permitted dumping of ship waste within its borders.
In March 1982, NOAA advocated creating a national marine sanctuary in Hawaii's waters. Public workshops allowed scientists and the community to discuss the proposal. Some community members voiced opposition, fearing that a marine sanctuary would further restrict fishing and traffic. In early 1984, Hawaii's then-Governor George Ariyoshi suspended further consideration of the sanctuary. In October 1990, Congress again directed NOAA to determine the feasibility of a national marine sanctuary in Hawaii. The designation finalized on November 4, 1992.
In response to public concern, the Act allowed the Secretary of Commerce, in consultation with the Governor, to modify the sanctuary's boundaries. Numerous public meetings and hearings followed on each of the main islands. The program also established a Sanctuary Advisory Council, made up of government agencies and the public.
To increase public support, the sanctuary essentially incorporated existing protections without additional measures. Those restrictions primarily dealt with approach and harassment, waste discharge, and alteration of the sea bed. The prohibition on waste discharge had a significant exception: boaters could obtain permits to discharge waste inside the sanctuary, as most have continued to do.
Not until June 5, 1997, did Governor Benjamin Cayetano formally approve the sanctuary.
The Sanctuary Education Center is located in Kihei, Maui and features exhibits about the natural and cultural history of humpback whales and other marine life found in the sanctuary. The center offers public education programs and lectures, and features a marine science library.
The NMSP periodically executes a five-year-long review of sanctuary management plans. During the review, a sanctuary may revise operations, management, programs, site-specific regulations, boundaries and management zones. In September 2002, Governor Cayetano approved the plan. Another planning cycle is under way.
Almost two-thirds of North Pacific humpback whales (estimates range from 4,000 to 10,000 whales) migrates to Hawaiian waters each winter to bear and nurse their calves and to mate, although not to eat. Their throats are only the size of a large dinner plate or a volleyball. While in Alaska they spend a majority of their time eating, feeding mainly on krill. They can cover nearly 3,000 miles (4,800 km) of open ocean in less than two months' time This population is growing an estimated 7% per year, but is still greatly diminished from the estimated 15,000 to 20,000 in the days before the whaling ban.
In 1966 the International Whaling Commission (IWC) put them in a protected status worldwide, outlawing whaling, but large illegal kills continued into the 1970s. Currently humpbacks are thought to number about 30,000–40,000 worldwide, which is approximately 30–35 percent of their pre-whaling population.
Compared to other whales, the humpback whale has extremely long flippers which reach up to 30 percent of its length of up to 40 feet (12 m). At their full grown length they can reach up to 55 feet long, and weighs about one ton for every square foot. The whale appears dark from the top while its flippers and tail, the sides and underside appear partially white and are noticeable when they are beginning dive as are their small dorsal fins. These white markings on their flukes are completely unique, each working as a personal fingerprint that scientists use to identify them. These whales are air breathers, rising to the surface every thirty or so minutes. Their exhale can rise up to 15 feet into the air, clocking at a speed of 300 mph(the human sneeze at its fastest is about 100 mph).
When born, calfs are generally 10 to 15 feet long. They feed off their mothers milk, which is produced and fed to their calfs through mammary gland slits. The calf is able to roll its tongue into a tube and siphon in the milk that is ejected into the water. Occasionally pods of dolphins are found trailing mothers and their calves, and it has been speculated that they are consuming be leftover milk that the calf does not eat.
All efforts to attach tracking devices to these whales have failed because of their constant movement. These whales are known for "breaching", in which they throw their body out of the water. Scientists have only been able to speculate as to why they do this, theories include using the motion to knock barnacles off, show of dominance, mark personal space etc. There is generally a lot action when there are groupings of males, anywhere from two to ten whales, that come together in what's known as a competition pod. In these groupings the males are showing off and sometimes fighting over the position of being a females escort for the season. Many times the whales will use their pectoral fins and flukes to slam each other, leavening bruises and cuts from the barnacles attached to their skin.
Male humpback whales produce vocalizations described as "songs" over 10–20 minute periods. Whales in different areas of the world sing different songs, but those in the same area sing the same song. A song can be repeated for hours. They change slightly from year to year. The whales engage in many other interesting behaviors that can be observed from shore.
Native Hawaiians have long had close relationships with their marine environment. Nowadays, sanctuary waters are also used for recreation, fishing and shipping. Commercial operations feature whale watching, sportfishing, parasailing and snorkeling, while commercial fishing, cruise ships and commercial shipping transit the same area. One of the sanctuary's main purposes is to find ways to conduct these activities that have minimal impact on humpback whales and their habitat.
Protecting humpback whales and their habitat is very important for the continued success of Hawai`i's whalewatching industry. A recent study estimates that commercial whalewatching alone supports as many as 390 jobs and $27 million in revenues. Through its many activities, the sanctuary helps protect this economic contribution.

Its the opposite: who shelters their kids like little snow flakes.12 year olds absolutely have the capacity to understand the consequences of their actions. I don't know what idiots in the legal system think otherwise. Probably those who don't have kids.
This post has 3 likes. Makes me feel people nowadays are willing to be dumb.We should ban schools.

Right, because they will know how to deal with it IRL when they grow up.^ If we didn't force many kids together who are not going to like each other, not going to get along, there might be less violence.
These days we could have computer schooling at home.
Posted 17 February 2013 - 01:48
That's another problem: parents should start actually parenting, instead of let the school deal with it.^ You can see from the evening News, many people never grow out of bullying & hate. Schools did not work.

Short story. 396 dollars for bugs that bite, very dishonest and rude staff at front desk, drug deals left and right..i wont mention the constant flucuation of price due to apparent 24 hour memory loss of a price negotiation only a day before i was rediculously overcharged for.
