Wetlands are biodiversity rich sensitive ecosystems that harbor hundreds of plants, insects, birds and other animals uniquely adapted to their wetland mode of life.They are crucial to maintain the regional water balance through ground water recharge and absorption of flood waters and also serve as the rice bowl of developing countries. Nevertheless, wetlands play immense role in the socio-economic and livelihood aspects of local communities living around the wetland. In India, rural communities depend wetland for livelihood through farming, mat making etc; for food through fishing and hunting; for roof thatching by collection of reeds and palm leaf ; for firewood; for fodder etc. However, these wetlands are now under a threat of conversion for big industrial and real estate projects, change in lifestyle of local community, over extraction of resources by increased population, pollution,waste dumping, eutrophication and pesticide farming. There are three important wetlands in the Puducherry region namely Oussudu, Bahour and Kaliveli that provide important resources for local communities and also are a home to tens of thousands of migratory birds that visit the Puducherry region in winter. These wetlands have been acknowledged as Important Bird Areas(IBAs) by IBCN, since many of these birds are represented in more than 1% of their global population.
The recent threat on wetlands of Puducherry is more due to the change in life style of local community living around these wetlands. The younger generation is not much dependent on wetland resources, The younger and modern generation has lost the compassion and bonding to the wetland which their forefathers maintained through sustainable livelihood practices. This has resulted in a change in attitude and perception of the community towards unsustainable farming and resource extraction, game hunting, intensive fishing and reclamation, ultimately resulting in shrinking of wetland area and loss of biodiversity at an alarming pace. Local community is leaving the traditional farming practices for more fertilizer and pesticide based farming; fish stock is depleted using invasive Gill nets. Since Puducherry is fast developing region with rapidly growing commercial tourism and industrial establishments, these wetlands are under the threat of reclamation for resort construction and other commercial establishments. Poaching for a sport as well as open selling of birds including the threatened species is common. School drop-out are noticed to get attracted to such practices to make easy money as well as hunting for a sport with peers. With time, they may grow into expert hunters who will depend on poaching as the main source of income for the family. There are many wetland awareness programs organized by Forest Department as well as NGOs targeting school kids and educated community through workshops. School drop-outs are often not specially targeted by any of such programs and often not brought under the ambit of such programs. This gap needs to be addressed for local conservation efforts to be fully effective. We have chosen birds as the umbrella species whose conservation will in turn protect the lake and biodiversity as a whole. Birds are attractive and beautiful; ,which may easily get compassion from drop-out kids if guided appropriately. With proper efforts, the poachers can be turned to protectors and expert tour guides to facilitate ecotourism.

I made another attempt with a different way to slow the absorption into the black paper. For this series I prepped the black cardstock with a nice layer of Krylon clear spray sealer. I let it thoroughly dry, then I applied diagonal smears of perfect pearl paints.
This time I used Grape Fizz, Pink Gumball, Sour Apple, Blue Raspberry. These are intense and bright colors and sold in a 4-pack at JoAnns and Michaels. Some places sell individual colors of Perfect Pearls.
Suspended time and absorption are central in our performative work. We perform „engrossed in an activity as if in denial of an audience“. We keep still. We move according to a choreographed path. We keep close to each other, we touch each other, we lie on the floor. From one tableau to the next. Holding the image for few minutes. One of us lies on a wooden plank. The whole leg, buttocks and lower back rest on the plank. Only shoulders and head touch the floor. The second figure is already doing a shoulderstand, bending the left knee and simultaneously stretching and leaning the right leg slightly over the head. The stretched leg remains leaning… The piece is inspired by the long scene in the sculpture garden at the Museum of Modern Art in New York from the film „Shadows“ by John Casavettes; Stills from Bob Fosse’s „All that Jazz“; photos of works by Yvonne Rainer and Rudolph von Laban and Kinesiology, physical therapy exercises.

Absorption Pasta.
The best pasta you will ever eat.
Instead of cooking the noodles in water, they are cooked directly in the sauce. It's a slower process. . . but so worth it.
Trust me.

sorry for the low quality photo. we ate later than normal. lighting was bad.
Fluorescing Coral- Fluorescence is the absorption of one wavelength of light and the re-emission of another, a totally different colour. A fluorescent object under near UV light, it absorbs the blue and re-emits a fluorescent colour, brightly glowing in a totally different colour. - Raja Ampat, Dampier Strait, West Papua, Indonesia.

Each serving of Isotonix® Maximum ORAC contains 3000 ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorption Capacity) units. A good ORAC supplement should contain at least this amount in the form of high-ORAC value foods such as blueberries, cranberries and elderberries. The use of natural vitamin E isomers, tocotrienols (closely related to vitamin E in chemical structure) and vitamin C in ORAC supplements can contribute to an antioxidant network inside cells, which offers far more protection than using a single agent.

Solar Town and Village Planting Planning and Design Projects
Abstract: May 11, 2012 Jan. 10, 2011
A CO2 absorption strategy proposed by tree planting new solar town and village plans provides place and work for people displaced by global warming, pollution, etc. Full town and village area tree planting has maximum potential tree products as infrastructure patterns form on degraded land with close-planted interspersed tree, shrub, and grass species. Fast growth short-term yield trees, micro-climate protecting long-term slow growth trees, nitrogen fix soil, and provide food, fuel, and building material within a few years with adequate water. Water conservation works (small trenches, mounds) catch rain and seeds starting at watershed tops. Gully plugs and very small dams form circulation ways for people. Shaded walking and cycle paths, avenues, forest perma-culture parks with local sanitation systems, future building sites, urban and agriculture patterns are tree formed by a small hard working group. Trees can have good survival rates where people live (with water and compost material) caring for place with long term home commitment, beginning with indigenous tree, shrub and grass species that have survived many generations and extreme weather conditions. From tree centers (nurseries, seed banks) outlying areas are planted-maintained. Solar buildings and technology includes modular durable structural frames for low energy in-fills beginning with 1-2 levels, and foundations for ‘growing’ taller with the trees, with top solar collectors. Solar village houses have thru-mirror-wall greenhouse type oven kitchens. Environmental regeneration and town and village patterns tree formed with basic renewable–solar energy infrastructure planning may reduce the damage and loss of life due to global warming pollution and associated climate change extremes with modest investment.

A montage of Cassini images, taken in four different regions of the
spectrum from ultraviolet to near-infrared, demonstrates that there is
more to Saturn than meets the eye.
The pictures show the effects of absorption and scattering of light
at different wavelengths by both atmospheric gas and clouds of differing
heights and thicknesses. They also show absorption of light by colored
particles mixed with white ammonia clouds in the planet's atmosphere.
Contrast has been enhanced to aid visibility of the atmosphere.
Cassini's narrow-angle camera took these four images over a period of
20 minutes on April 3, 2004, when the spacecraft was 44.5 million
kilometers (27.7 million miles) from the planet. The image scale is
approximately 267 kilometers (166 miles) per pixel. All four images
show the same face of Saturn.
In the upper left image, Saturn is seen in ultraviolet wavelengths
(298 nanometers); at upper right, in visible blue wavelengths (440
nanometers); at lower left, in far red wavelengths just beyond the
visible-light spectrum (727 nanometers; and at lower right, in
near-infrared wavelengths (930 nanometers).
The sliver of light seen in the northern hemisphere appears bright
in the ultraviolet and blue (top images) and is nearly invisible at
longer wavelengths (bottom images). The clouds in this part of the
northern hemisphere are deep, and sunlight is illuminating only the
cloud-free upper atmosphere. The shorter wavelengths are consequently
scattered by the gas and make the illuminated atmosphere bright, while
the longer wavelengths are absorbed by methane.
Saturn's rings also appear noticeably different from image to image,
whose exposure times range from two to 46 seconds. The rings appear dark
in the 46-second ultraviolet image because they inherently reflect little
light at these wavelengths. The differences at other wavelengths are
mostly due to the differences in exposure times.
The Cassini-Huygens mission is a cooperative project of NASA, the
European Space Agency and the Italian Space Agency. The Jet Propulsion
Laboratory, a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena,
manages the Cassini-Huygens mission for NASA's Office of Space Science,
Washington, D.C. The Cassini orbiter and its two onboard cameras, were
designed, developed and assembled at JPL. The imaging team is based at
the Space Science Institute, Boulder, Colo.

Classical; 475-450 B.C.; Cypriot; Limestone
After the absorption of Cyprus into the Persian Empire in 526/5 B.C. contacts increased with the wealthy East Greek cities on the western coast of Asia Minor, which had also fallen under Persian rule. The influence of Greek sculptural style can by seen in this statue of a man dedicated in a temple at Golgoi. He wears typical East Greek dress, a finely pleated linen chiton, and a woolen himation (cloak), and stands with left foot advanced in a pose that gives a subtle sense of movement. His smile and the jewel-like precision with which his hair and beard are carved remind one of Greek Archaic art of the sixth century B.C., but the style appears stiff and somewhat artificial in this statue, which was carved in the second quarter of the fifth century.
Like many Cypriot votive statues this figure wears a wreath of leaves and flowers. It is composed of oak leaves and stylized narcissus flowers, which must have evoked ideas of fertility and regeneration. The man holds gifts for the deity—a dove in his left hand and a cylindrical object, which probably represented a container of incense, in his right hand.
