      Colorful Frogs Wallpapers
      The frog is an amphibian in the order Anura (meaning "tail-less", from Greek an-, without + oura, tail), formerly referred to as Salientia (Latin saltare, to jump). The name frog derives from Old English frogga, (compare Old Norse frauki, German Frosch, older Dutch spelling kikvorsch), cognate with Sanskrit plava (frog), probably deriving from Proto-Indo-European praw = "to jump&quo

      I had the singular misfortune of spending some leisure time with an inebriated Frenchman while in Chicago on business last week.

      My boy has a deep and undying love for frogs.Mom, I'm just curious about frogs.He says in a most forlorn manner when asked about his fixation. Enough frogs were beginning to go through our house, subjected to baths with the Bear and dying at the end of a day of over-handling that I began to worry about the local population.

      Levitating Frogs
      A university in the Netherlands has been experimenting with very high-powered electromagnets. Everything from your mom's favorite tea set to the annoying kid throwing paper airplanes in the back of the bus has a magnetic field, even if it's tiny. However, with enough juice running through an electromagnet, scientists can make anything fly. Take, for instance, the levitating frog, which can surf an electromagnetic wave with the best of them. It'll be a while before you can strap on your Magneto boots and take to the skies, though. It takes a magnet with a 16-tesla magnetic field to lift a small frog into the air. The strongest magnetic field ever sustained in a lab was 60 teslas, and a 1.43 gigawatt motor powered that magnet. That's enough wattage to send Marty McFly back to 1985.

      Apparently, if you put a frog in boiling water it’ll frantically try to escape, but if you put it into a pan of tepid water it’ll feel comfortable and as the water heats up, will fall into a tranquil state, gradually allowing itself to be boiled to death without even noticing. We humans, as intelligent as we may be, are acting like frogs! When we first arrived (evolved) on this planet it was nice and lukewarm; a good, comfortable place to be. Everything we needed was provided for us. It seems to me that as we developed our intelligence so our ‘wants’ developed too; we were no longer satisfied to just cover our ‘needs’.

      Watch the frogs hop at Pyestang Tugak
      The City of San Fernando, Pampanga will end the Pyestang Tugak: 5th Annual San Fernando Frog Festival later today. This event is extra special to me since I organized the first one way back in 2003. Frogs are a unique part of Pampanga culinary traditions. And by organizing the festival, the city is ensuring that these traditions are preserved and promoted.There is a traditional way of catching frogs called paduasan. In the early days, when the rains came, while the elders where busy planting rice, kids would catch frogs. This game eventually evolved into a specialized technique and skill. Catchers use a bamboo rod called the paduas. And at the end of the string, they attach a type of worm called bulateng tudtud or sleeping worm. Once the frog bites, its tongue get entangled with the worm, and the catcher is able to hurl it up in the air and lets it fall into a net called panyapu.It was a common sight to see people lined-up on top of the pilapil or rice paddies with a paduas in one hand

(Ya think maybe this is our hero?) Before Pickett knows what is going on, he is capsized by a (obnoxiously loud gas-powered) speedboat driven by two of the Crockett siblings whose family just happens to own the waters the photographer has been exploring. Pickett is fished out and taken to the Crockett island estate where the über-dysfunctional family is gathering for their annual 4th of July (oh, the dripping irony) celebration. As Pickett is something of an ecology expert, he is almost immediately grilled by the Crockett's about the increasing number of abnormally large frogs

      Mutant golden frogs and Dmitry Bulatov's fluorescent tadpoles
      Four mutant frogs with gold skin and red eyes, found by children in a grassy field in the town of Shimanto in Kochi prefecture, have gone on display at the nearby Shimanto River Gakuyukan science center. According to a center spokesperson who says the golden specimens are highly unusual, the 2.4-centimeter (almost 1-inch) amphibians appear to be black-spotted pond frogs (Pelophylax nigromaculata, a.k.a. Rana nigromaculata) whose skin turned gold because of an albino mutation that prevents the formation of pigment cells.

I was fortunate to be in the RESURFACING Exhibition earlier in the year at Ohio State with him. He displayed at the exhibition his work on genetically engineering tadpole appearances by making them fluorescent colors. Below is an example of one of his tadpoles:Static form of chimerical design of Xenopus laevis tadpole.

      Dog meets frogs
      I cannot exactly see the attraction of watching frogs, but Mum and Dad enjoy spending hours by the side of the pond, shrieking with delight when the slimy green chaps jump off a rock. I suppose it is nice to see how much they can grow in just a few weeks. They start off as little tadpoles no bigger than a dog's claw, and then they turn into croaking green monsters bigger than a dog's paw!

      What's with these frogs on my page?
      OK, something is wonky with this site. I think it is in the template, but am not sure. I'll see if I can figure it out, but in the meantime, if you know, please drop me a note.Hmmm...got rid of the frogs which took the rounded corners and sunflowers. No big deal. And Adsense. Also not a huge deal. I can live with this for now.Ok, why do the ads display when I click on an entry, but not on the homepage? I must have deleted something in the code...One day I will give up on fiddling my template. I'll either stumble upon exactly what I want, or I'll give up. The latter may take a LONG time, however, since I'm not one to give up easily. For the moment, since I am giving up for today, I thought I better attribute the above image:http://www.freefoto.com/index.jspIt may change again, but that is where I got it from.

      On Kissing Frogs…
      I really do love WordPress. A short while back, I’d promised to have something up here about that. After the snafu yesterday with the sidebar problems, I was so impressed I knew that come hell or high water… er, neither rain nor sleet nor… regardless of my stupid back problem that makes it bloody impossible to sit, stand or lie down, I needed to get that “thing” up here. Honestly, the staff at WordPress is truly phenomenal. Within minutes of sending the feedback yesterday, they were not only on the problem but had sent email acknowledging it… email apologizing for the problem. Flabbergasted, I am. In a world where you can’t go through a drive-thru and actually get your order right; in a world where even when you phone and speak with a Manager/Assistant Manager/Supervisor/Owner’s Cat, you can’t get anyone to care about the shoddy service or product you received, the staff at WordPress care.

      The Story of Tiny Frogs

The tower is too high!"The tiny frogs began collapsing. One by one...... Except for those who in a fresh tempo were climbing higher and higher...The crowd continued to yell"It is too difficult!!!

      Frogs Raining Down From the Sky!
      Frogs rain down on Serbia Traffic came to a halt and locals fled inside after thousands of frogs fell from the sky onto a Serbian village. Residents in Odzaci told local daily Blic they thought the world was coming to an end. Aleksandar Ciric said: "I saw all these small frogs just start raining down. There were thousands of them." Another villager, Caja Jovanovic, added: "This huge 'cloud' seemed to come out of nowhere and its shape and colour looked very strange. "We were all wondering what it was when suddenly frogs started to fall from the sky. I thought maybe a plane carrying frogs had exploded in midair." But climatology expert Slavisa Ignjatovic said there was a simple scientific explanation for the incident. He said: "A whirlwind has sucked up the frogs from a lake, the sea or some other body of water somewhere else and carried them along to Odzaci where they have fallen to the ground. It is a recognised scientific phenomenon."feed

      The 'Buzz' on frogs & toads for Bass Fishing
      In case some of you are not aware, there is a deadly creation out there called the Buzz Frog or Swimming Toad out there and bass are crushing them. Its basically a hybrid baits that takes the allure of a frog and a buzzbait and wraps it into a soft plastic package! From what I can tell, Zoom started it with their Horny Toad and now just about everyone has a spin on it. Check out a sampling below. They work in places regular frogs don't and the hook % is much higher with these ;)Zoom Ultravibe Horny Toad - This is where it all startedSizmic Toads - Sizmic made a splash shortly there after, they have some floating & chugging versions as well.Gambler Cane Toad - This is my personal favorite & I think it has the best soundBerkley Gulp Bat Wing Frog - Not sure how important scent dispersion of Gulp! is for topwater...Kicker Fish Xplodin' Toad - never used it, but looks like a solid designMann's HardNose Swim Toad - I have heard good things about the durability of this product, more fis

      New York Times WASHINGTON, June 18 — Scientists from the Environmental Protection Agency say there is "sufficient evidence" to conclude that the country's most widely used pesticide, atrazine, causes sexual abnormality in frogs. They are recommending that the agency conduct more research to understand atrazine's mechanisms and its broader impact on frog populations. Popular Pesticide Faulted for Frogs' Sexual Abnormalities

      Found Art Road Trip- The Frogs are Loose!
      The frogs are loose! They escaped to Charles County yesterday, where they parted company when a few decided to check out a couple of local restaurants. After learning french fries are not made from flies and that frog legs are a delicacy, they decided outside was better than inside. The lifelike fishing lures in a sporting goods shop were also an attraction, and a local learning center looked like a good place for frogs. Kids like frogs, right?!? Anyway, I hope they find a happy home. They’ve been good company in the studio, and I’m going to miss their silly grins. Now, stop reading this blog and go find your frog!

      Why The Frogs No Longer Sing - A Case Study On The Survival Of A Freshwater
      I was disturbed to read today that the frogs from the Tasek Chini were no longer singing. They have practically disappeared. This may not seemed strange to you, in fact, you may not have any idea where Tasek Chini is . After all, it "was" a beautiful large mass of freshwater lake in the tropical forests of Malaysia. It "was" because it now no longer is beautiful as it was, with pollution levels reportedly 56 times higher than is considered healthy, and worse, this is right inside the tropical jungle. The frogs are not the only ones disappearing. The fishes, cobras, pythons are also diminishing in numbers. Weeds called the "Cat's Tail" have proliferated, snuffing out important sunlight that would allow organisms to grow. This is worrying enough for some concrete action to be taken to revive the ecosystem. In retrospect, how can action be taken to protect the environment, or a delicate ecosystem such as Tasek Chini, or any other lake in the world? Here at Tasek Chini I read about t

      Bubble People and Boiling Frogs
      This is a man caught in a bubble, thoughtless of how his daily behaviour affects the climate.Once upon a time there was a frog which was dropped into water so hot that it leaped out, shocked - and saved itself. Later it was dropped into tepid water, which it found very pleasant. Then the water began to warm up, but only imperceptibly, so the frog remained lulled and relaxed, becoming more and more warm and sleepy ... until it was too late to escape, and it was boiled to death.Each year, the average car emits about three times its weight in carbon dioxide pollution - a leading cause of global warming.

      Frogs With Catlike Claws
      Have you seen frogs that break their own bones to produce claws when face with dangers?  The bones then protrude out the frogs' toe pads forming catlike claws.  Within the science community, these frogs known as Trichobatrachus robustus.  I think the name is too long for a normal human being to remember.  Why don't these scientists just name the bone breaking frogs as bone brea
