  • 2020 Conservation Outlook Assessment
    IUCN World Heritage Outlook: https://worldheritageoutlook.iucn.org/ Malpelo Fauna and Flora Sanctuary - 2020 Conservation Outlook Assessment Malpelo Fauna and Flora Sanctuary 2020 Conservation Outlook Assessment SITE INFORMATION Country: Colombia Inscribed in: 2006 Criteria: (vii) (ix) Located some 506 km off the coast of Colombia, the site includes Malpelo island (350 ha) and the surrounding marine environment (857,150 ha). This vast marine park, the largest no-fishing zone in the Eastern Tropical Pacific, provides a critical habitat for internationally threatened marine species, and is a major source of nutrients resulting in large aggregations of marine biodiversity. It is in particular a ‘reservoir' for sharks, giant grouper and billfish and is one of the few places in the world where sightings of the short-nosed ragged-toothed shark, a deepwater shark, have been confirmed. Widely recognized as one of the top diving sites in the world, due to the presence of steep walls and caves of outstanding natural beauty, these deep waters support important populations of large predators and pelagic species (e.g. aggregations of over 200 hammerhead sharks and over 1,000 silky sharks, whale sharks and tuna have been recorded) in an undisturbed environment where they maintain natural behavioural patterns. © UNESCO SUMMARY 2020 Conservation Outlook Finalised on 02 Dec 2020 GOOD WITH SOME CONCERNS The conservation outlook for Malpelo Fauna and Flora Sanctuary is positive compared to the situation of many marine protected areas in the World. This is because of the size and remoteness of the site, the existence of a large no-take area and the encouraging conservation efforts by governmental and non- governmental actors, including foundations, research institutions and tourism operators.

Do you ever wonder if there's life out there? We are on an average looking guy, in average casual clothes, circa 1980. He is in an average compact car with a sunroof, through which Walter gazes skyward, his arm draped off screen. We follow his arm with camera to take in a prettier than average young woman who seems interested in anything but Walter and the stars. JAMIE I'm not too sure there's even life around here. Walter's eyes drift down and over, his mood shattered. WALTER What? JAMIE I've had it... WALTER What'd I do now? JAMIE Nothing... It's what I did... WALTER You've been like this for a week... If it's the wedding, we can move it up... I just thought your folks would prefer... JAMIE Walter... It isn't working... WALTER You don't mean us... JAMIE Walter... I don't mean you and me... I mean me and this planet... It just isn't working out... I got passed over today... 2. WALTER Passed over for what... Head of the steno pool... Once we're married I don't want you working anyway... JAMIE I didn't apply for head of the steno pool... I was interviewed by Scott to get an on-camera assignment... WALTER On-camera... You? JAMIE And what's that supposed to mean? I don't have the brains to be a good field reporter..

  • Peter Nasmyth's Georgia
    PICTURE STORY Peter Nasmyth’s Georgia January 2009 Peter Nasmyth’s Georgia Today's Georgia can only be understood if it is seen in the light of the events of the past two decades. The very difficult transformation the country went through after it declared its independence in 1991, and the conflicts in Abkhazia and South Ossetia which plagued the country since then, still largely shape its present day policies. And nowhere is this better described than in Nasmyth's "Georgia" which is a collection of personal stories of the author and author's friends in Georgia over the years. In his words: I collected stories of people, very specific ones, through which I tell the bigger story of Georgia over time… I never wanted to write about the political forces here, rather the forces that make the politics. This will always give a book a longer life. [Interview with Peter Nasmyth, Tbilisi, October 2008] In the next few pages you will get a guided tour of this excellent book. It is written and it reads like a novel, yet it is full of facts that give a complete account of Georgia's modern day history. The descriptions are so colourful that reading this book is the next best thing to visiting Georgia yourself. What makes the book special is also that the author has updated the book and added new chapters two times after it was first published in 1998. Here we discuss the 2006 edition which covers the modern history of Georgia up to the events of the Rose Revolution.

  • Apocalypse As Religious and Secular Discourse in Battlestar Galactica
    Volume 6 2014-15 APOCALYPSE & GHOSTS Apocalypse as Religious and Secular Discourse in Battlestar Galactica and its Prequel Caprica Diane Langlumé University of Paris VIII Saint-Denis Abstract he concept of the end of the world is inherent in religious discourse. Illustratively, in T Medieval Christianity, a divine power was held responsible for cataclysmic events. In the post-Hiroshima era, the concept of apocalypse has taken on secular meaning. Not surprisingly, given recent history, the apocalypse has become a prominent component of popular television epics; broadcast narratives, such as Battlestar Galactica and Caprica, entwine both Biblical and secular versions of the apocalypse, thereby creating a novel apocalyptic discourse which, instead of establishing the apocalypse as an end, uses it as a foundation, as a thought-provoking means of conveying a political message of tolerance and acceptance of otherness, of encouraging self-reflectiveness; and as a way of denouncing the empty rhetoric of religious extremism. Keywords: Television series, Battlestar Galactica, Caprica, religion, Book of Mormon, Bible, Book of Revelation, John of Patmos, Genesis, Adam, Garden of Eden, Heaven, God, fall of man, the beast, false prophet, angel, Second Coming, resuscitation, apocalypse, end of the world, nuclear apocalypse, Hiroshima, post-apocalyptic, genocide, intertextuality, parody, pastiche, religious satire, 9/11, America, religious terrorism, suicide bombing, cyborg, robot, humanity, monotheism, polytheism. he television series Battlestar Galactica1 establishes its chronology between a nuclear T apocalypse that has just taken place and the threat of a potential future apocalypse,2 both at the hands of human-looking cyborgs called Cylons. Caprica, its prequel series, set fifty- eight years before the nuclear detonation, unfolds the events leading up to the apocalypse in Battlestar Galactica.
