   Operation Atelopus's Blurbs
About me:
This is a series of documentary-style films shot in Northern South America. It deals with the decimation of a genera of Neotropical toad, Atelopus. The first of the series is called Operation Ecuadorian Atelopus and films the decline of one of the last two (of some perhaps 40 species) in Ecuador. The film documents that natural history of these beautiful toads, the causes of declines, and possible work we can be doing to save the remaining species. It also features original endemic-style musical scores and outtakes. The film is around 37 minutes in length and is available on DVD by contacting us. The next series of this will be shot in late Feb of 2006 in Peru, Colombia, and Panama-- possibly others. We are actively seeking financial backing in the form of grants, equipment donation, etc-- so if you or someone you know could help us out, please contact us for more information.
Who I'd like to meet:
Anyone with an interest in biodiversity, DIY, independent music/media, Eddie Izzard, or those people who are following their passions.

All Girls are straight up lying when they say that size does not matter, I got proof.
Heads up here for you guys, my best friend Pete has been getting all the girls at school and work after he has not had a girlfriend in the past 2 years. I asked him if he is drugging them or whatever so he told me his little secret. He has been taking these tablets, Copy and paste this address into your browser CKAPS.COM to see where he gets them from, they made his little magic stick grow almost double the size it was in about 2 months and he says it is still getting bigger.
I thought he was kidding around so I investigated a little bit into it and sure enough I found nine bottles of the these pills under his bed and to top that off, his 2 brothers are now taking them too, I don't know, but I am thinking now of buying them for you know who.. I know it sounds shallow but after seeing the results, it is hard to not do it.
I am telling you I have all the proof needed that they work, the place you order them from even guarentees that they will work on any guy or they give you what you paid right back. Don't pass up on this one guys, it is 100% confirmed and for real. Get them while they are still available by Going here Just copy and paste this address in your browser. CKAPS.COM

First, I worry about climate change. It's the only thing that I believe has the power to fundamentally end the march of civilization as we know it, and make a lot of the other efforts that we're making irrelevant and impossible

Survival of the Ritziest
Threatened frogs get cushy new habitat at a Panamanian hotel

Hundreds of frogs and toads can be found in an unusual habitat in Panama -- Rooms 28 and 29 of the Hotel Campestre in the town of El Valle de Anton. An international crew of biologists, environmentalists, and zoo employees relocated the critters to save them from the deadly chytrid fungus, which has been working its way through Central America for a decade and has wiped out up to 120 species of amphibians. The hotel now houses more than 300 frogs of 40 threatened species -- frogs with translucent skin, frogs that look like rocks, and the golden frog, a symbol of prosperity and virility whose visage appears on Panamanian lottery tickets. A state-of-the-art center in a private zoo in El Valle is being built for froggie refugees, and they very well may live there hoppily ever after, as biologists have no idea how long the chytrid fungus will be a threat. "There's this moral dilemma," says Adrian Benedetti, director of a Panamanian zoo. "Is this evolution? Should we let it run its course? If we do this for frogs, then do we do it some other time for the snakes?"

Thank you for the add. You are about my age and I wish I had a buddy at the time when I had 10 atelopus in captivity. It was an amazing experience...and I had them for 3 years as adults...I would love to get a copy of the DVD and even visit what you are doing.

Cheers
