Company offers cruises for pets, Singapore - 24 Apr 2013

Pet Cruises For Pampered Pooches
Pet Cruises For Pampered Pooches
It's a 'ruff' life for Singapore's spoilt pets.
Boat owner Joe Howe, 48, has started taking pets and their owners out on cruises.
Based in Singapore, the retired broker and his business partner Max Chan lead two cruises a week to the islands and beaches in the northern part of the country.
His 26-foot (7.8-metre) motor catamaran, which comes with a swimming deck, has a cleaning station and provides life jackets for dogs.
Pet Cruise takes their guests out for a short two hour ride on a catamaran, which they can chose to charter the entire boat or book on an individual basis.
It costs S$400, which is approximately GBP 200, to book the boat for two hours.
Pet owners have even brought on board tortoises.
Launched last May Pet Cruise has become very popular and Mr Howe said: "Pet owners find this activity an excellent way to spend some quality time with their pets, family and friends.
"Young couples are having pets before they have children, it's a stand-in, and at times even a replacement (for kids)."

Australian Navy transport new battleship using one of the superships of Dockwise - Aug 2012

You Floated My Battleship! The Superships That Carry Superloads
When the weighty problem of transporting superloads around the world arises, a bulky breed of superships are ready to take up the challenge.
But rather than standard cargo containers, these vessels are capable of floating unimaginable loads including full oil rigs, multiple nuclear-powered submarines and, in one epic voyage, 18 barges from China to the Netherlands.
Currently, the Australian Navy are employing the services of Netherlands-based shipping company Dockwise's MV Blue Marlin, the largest cargo transport ship in the world.
The ship is transporting the first of two aircraft carrier hulls from Spain to Melbourne.
The Australian Landing Helicopter Dock (ALHD) Canberra is the first to commence the 12,000 nautical mile voyage around the Cape of Good Hope, estimated to be completed in 45 days after setting off on 20 August from Punta Langosteira, a new large port just south of La Coruna, northern Spain.
Spanish company Navantia has completed construction of the ships from the keel to the flight deck, and now the hulls are being transported for completion by BAE Systems Australia. The second hull, the ALHD Adelaide, will be transported in early 2014.
Blue Marlin is more than up to the task, being 712ft in length, larger than two football pitches, 138ft deep and able to carry 75,000 tonnes. That said, the ALHD Canberra is so large it overhangs the Blue Marlin deck by 180ft.
Blue Marlin's load capability also meant it was the ship of choice for the U.S. Navy when they had to transport the stricken destroyer USS Cole back to the United States after the warship was damaged by an Al-Qaeda suicide bomber attack while anchored in the port of Aden, Yemen.
The Blue Marlin is manned by a 24 crew and is powered by 17,000 horsep...

Top five NASA Landsat observation satellites images of Earth - 24 Jul 2012

Top five NASA Landsat Satellites Images of Earth
During a span of 40 years, since 1972, the Landsat series of Earth observation satellites has become a vital reference worldwide for understanding scientific issues related to land use and natural resources.
Beyond the scientific information they supply, some Landsat images are simply striking to look at, presenting spectacular views of mountains, valleys, and islands as well as forests, grasslands, and agricultural patterns.
By selecting certain features and colouring them from a digital palate, the U.S. Geological Survey has created a series of "Earth as Art" perspectives that demonstrate an artistic resonance in satellite land imagery and provide a special avenue of insight about the geography of each scene.
NASA asked the public to vote on their favourite images from the more than 120 images in the online "Earth as Art" collection. From over 14,000 votes the top five winners were:
1st Place: Van Gogh from Space Landsat 7 Acquired 7/13/2005. In the style of Van Gogh's painting "Starry Night," massive congregations of greenish phytoplankton swirl in the dark water around Gotland, a Swedish island in the Baltic Sea. Population explosions, or blooms, of phytoplankton, like the one shown here, occur when deep currents bring nutrients up to sunlit surface waters, fuelling the growth and reproduction of these tiny plants.
2nd Place: Yukon Delta Landsat 7 Acquired 9/22/2002. Countless lakes, sloughs, and ponds are scattered throughout this scene of the Yukon Delta in southwest Alaska. One of the largest river deltas in the world, and protected as part of the Yukon Delta National Wildlife Refuge, the river's sinuous waterways seem like blood vessels branching out to enclose an organ.
3rd Place: Meandering Mississippi Landsat 7 Acquired 5/28/2003. ...

Underwater fluorescent photographs by Alex Mustard - 19 Aug 2011

Underwater Electric Light Show
These underwater corals look stunning as they emit a fluorescent glow of green, orange and purple.
The colours radiate from the coral in the same way a UV light bounces off bright clothing in a nightclub.
British photographer Alex Mustard, 36, snapped the glowing corals, worms, anemone and crabs while diving in the Red Sea and the Caribbean.
He took the pictures at night and used a standard camera fitted with a blue flash, which triggers the fluorescent reaction.
The exact reason why the corals fluoresce is a mystery but it is thought the fluorescent pigment acts like a sun screen.
Alex, from Southampton, Hants, said: "The Red Sea and the Caribbean both have healthy and rich coral reefs.
"For these types of images you want to photograph where there are lots of species of corals as some glow with fluorescence and some do not.
"What is amazing is that you don't know what you will get until you see the pictures.
"Some corals glow strongly, while others do not.
"It is only when you take the picture and the blue flashes go off that you know if the coral is a performer.
"The pictures are taken with a normal camera and the colours are those that the camera recorded. They are not adjusted on a computer.
"I fitted filters to my flashes so they produce only deep blue light.
"This excites the fluorescence response in the corals, which then give out the greens, oranges and yellows you see in the images.
"The effect is the same as when bright colours in your clothes show up under the UV light in a disco or nightclub."
He added: "Corals are important creatures, which build the reefs that support whole ecosystems.
"They are under threat from rising sea temperatures and increasingly acidic seas.
"But they are not always the most e...
