HONOLULU, HI — This week in Global Ecology and Biogeography, encouraging news has emerged for one of the world's largest marine herbivores, the green turtle (Chelonia mydas). A new study shows that long-term protection of the sea turtles' nesting beaches is successful in achieving increases in the green turtle populations.

I can’t remember if this “nesting” thing happened during my pregnancy with Jax, so I can’t say if it is actually a true phenomenon, however, I can say that if it does in fact exist, it just happened to me. I woke up this morning with a burst of energy. I’m telling you, I have [...]
I first heard of "nesting" about a year after 9-11. According to news reports, people were choosing to stay home more. Americans were spending money on remodeling their existing spaces, and were finding comfort by just being home. Are you...
It’s that time of year when your favorite bluebird houses should be monitored for potential predators. We are currently experiencing bluebird baby feeding at it’s best.
The mother takes a quick look around to see if the surrounding area is safe.
The babies appear to be waiting patiently. Just ask mom if she thinks that’s the case.

While were only six weeks into the turtle nesting time (May 1 to October 31) here in Southwest Florida, the 2008 season is off to a good start. As of last weekend, there were 194 known nests on the beaches in Lee and Collier counties. That’s up from 131 at the same time last year.

Can a stored procedure call itself or recursive stored procedure? How many level SP nestingpossible?Ans:Yes. Because Transact-SQL supports recursion, you can write stored procedures that call themselves.Recursion can be defined as a method of problem solving wherein the solution is arrived at byrepetitively applying it to subsets of the problem. A common application of recursive logic is to performnumeric computations that lend themselves to repetitive evaluation by the same processing steps.Stored procedures are nested when one stored procedure calls another or executes managed code byreferencing a CLR routine, type, or aggregate. You can nest stored procedures and managed codereferences up to 32 levels.
So I've slacked a little bit with the blog. I hope none of you are worried about me - probably knew I was away! LOL! All is well - approaching the 37th of week of pregnancy so I'm tired and big and just slacking in general. Actually that's not true... I think I've been nesting; not so much for the baby but wanting the house in order.On Sunday, I got a wild hair that I HAD to decorate our backyard, screened-in porch before baby. It basically was a lost, grungy hole attached to the back.A few weeks ago, we went to World Market for a living room rug to make our wood floors softer for laying down "Ducky", and it had a ton of cool outdoor stuff. When we moved into our house last summer, my mother-in-law had given us white, wicker chairs that needed a fresh coat of paint (especially after we let

"It's kind of hectic, it's getting close and the house isn't even ready yet."With Alba taking time off from acting, she's handling the bulk of the duties to get ready for baby, which Alba revealed recently is a girl. "I'm not working so it's been a good place to put all my energy so it's been a nice distraction," she said at the event at Lucques restaurant in West Hollywood."I'm used to having to be somewhere all the time, and i

The nesting instinct is typically characterized by the irrational behaviors of women during and after childbirth. Its symptoms are also common among newly-weds and young couples. This irrationality often entails purchasing a home with or without sound financial prudence. As a woman, I understand that and accept responsibility for the financial and/or emotional trauma our [...]
I just got around to reading the February issue of domino magazine, the guide to living with style. I have not been reading it religiously, as anyone who has visited my home might guess, but I have been whipped into a frenzied sort of state by the tromp l'oeil custom made wallpapers from Iksel.com.There is one called "Kubilai's Tent" (no pics though!) which is wallpaper and ceiling application made to look like you are inside of an old dirty, striped, desert tent. Fucking cool. I want it.

Over the past several months I've heard repeated stories of the "nesting instinct" in the later stages of pregnancy. The behavior typically includes the pregnant woman obsessively cleaning and organizing the home before the arrival of the bundle of joy. The way it was labeled an "instinct" made me think of how my dog digs at the rug and circles before laying down, or how birds collect bits of straw and other materials to insulate a nest for winter. After experiencing nesting first hand, I would no longer be surprised to see my wife doing either of these things.I never discounted the phenomenon, but when I heard about the "nesting" phenomenon in pregnant women I didn't think it would apply to my wife. My thinking was the she already cleans everything to a surgically appropriate level, so she couldn't possibly clean or organize any further.I was wrong.In the past couple of weeks she has been taking a very active approach towards cleaning and organizing our house. She he been throwin
Mother Earth News has a good article on birdhouses posted on their website. The description of the birdhouse (complete with directions to make your own!) has everything I enjoy about backyard birding: it is simple and does not require an elaborate set up. Sure, you could purchase a birdhouse for $50 or more, paint it to match your house and complete with a welcome mat. If you are a serious woodworker, you can also find plans for a birdhouse which will challenge your skills and your tools. But if you want to use your saw and hammer to put something together with your children, the birds will not know the difference.
Why am I talking about nest boxes in the fall? While their main purpose may be fulfilled during the breeding season, nesting boxes can be important as roosting sites during harsh winter weather. These temporary shelters may then become a nest site in the spring.

It's Spring, and that means nesting season is upon us. I was in Goderich last weekend and took a quick visit to the airport early one morning. There is a large aircraft paint shop there, and I wandered over to one of their latest projects, an old Dash 8 100 series.This video is boring. I am unapologetic for that, but I'm sorry for the parts where the camera is looking at the sun and it goes all wonky. It's kind of sad to watch the airport decline; I spent nearly 5 years there and Goderich was pretty busy, but apparently the only traffic they get now is Skyharbor Aircraft customers.The airport fuel tanks are old and they didn't meet the proper environmental standards any more, so they got ripped out. The thing is, the town doesn't want to pay for new fuel tanks so they haven't been replaced. That does not bode well for the future of this place. Oh, and on a completely different note, we celebrated an addition to our family. No, Lisa isn't pregnant but she did buy a new ca
DEVI, India -- The scattered carcasses of dead turtles bake on the hot sand. Scraps of the white shells of turtle eggs surround a hole where stray dogs have dug up a nest. Until a decade ago, this beach on India's east coast used to witness one of nature's most spectacular sights -- the mass nesting of tens of thousands of Olive Ridley turtles on a single night. Not since 1995 has that happened. These days just a handful of turtles come to the beach at Devi to nest, and its status as one of three main nesting sites for the Olive Ridleys in India's coastal state of Orissa is under threat.Read the full article on ENN...
I must be nesting, there is no other reason for having spent today:
-Washing Mr. EC's car-Washing my car-Washing the white veranda fence out front-Mopping the veranda-Tidying the garden-Washing down the living room walls and skirting boards-Hoovering the living room and hallway-Dusting the living room-Rearranging the airing cupboard
Admittedly I'm a neat freak at the best of times, but there's like a week's worth of chores there and I chose to spend my Saturday doing them, WTF?
Tonight I am putting up my tree trunk ankles and doing absolutely nothing!
