Is Mexico Dangerous? Mexico and The US Media
Is Mexico Dangerous? One Journalist's View
By Linda Ellerbee,
I'm a journalist who lives in New York City, but has spent considerable time in Mexico, specifically Puerto Vallarta, for the last four years. I'm in Vallarta now. And despite what I'm getting from the U.S. media, the 24-hour news networks in particular, I feel as safe here as I do at home in New York, possibly safer.

Catalogue
Has anyone seen the new catalogue? Or is it not out yet. I am ready to start planning the next adventure and while I can look at the website, I always like starting with the hard copy.

Seabirds of Prince William Sound
What a beautiful scene the Black Legged Kittiwake colony in front of the Shoup Glacier is! The only drawback this year was the rain, the really cold rain to this little southern granny! But regardless of what hardship any of the participants faced, the staff was incredible. There were three volunteer staff people, Alex, Andrew, and Nick. If I could give them all the moon, I would, and I will always have a special place in my heart for them and for Rissa, Ray, and of course Aly. Thanks is not enough.
Nobody would have thought I'd be out capturing adult kittiwakes, picking up the chicks, collecting barf, or any of the other scientific information! I wouldn't either, but that I did. The salmon ran late this year, and that is apparently having a bad effect on the kittiwake colony. I hope the end report doesn't prove that. I still hear the bird calling, "Kittiwake, kittiwake, kittiwake." I'm ready to go back.

Many-sided Florida
This peninsula has a history that is without peer in the US.
It was built from the primary matter of the continental shelf with millennia of microscopic growth building the backbone of the state from the ocean's depths. Inhabited by many early forms of animal life until the emergence of the migrating humankind groups settling where the great ice sheet didn't reach. In recent centuries the shoreline has been the place most populated by whichever wave of new inhabitants arrived. Scattered along the length of the state are many natural water basins of fresh liquid making it possible to conduct agriculture everywhere.
