Daily Photo - Korror, Palau
2007-12-28 19:27:00 This is a manta ray I saw diving in Palau. I don’t claim to be the greatest underwater photographer. This was taken with a simple point and shoot camera I rented for the day. Manta rays, despite looking scary, are filter feeders and are harmless.
The Weekly Carboholic
2007-12-26 17:53:00 According to the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, the U.S. Department of Energy’s Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) approved the first wave power program in the United States. The program is for four 250 kW bouys anchored in Makah Bay off the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State. Finavera Renewables, a renewable energy company out of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada and Portland, Oregon, is the owner of this particular technology, bouys that use wave motion to force water through a turbine to generate electricity. While the project has only been granted a 5-year conditional approval from the FERC, Finavera hopes to generate enough power from wave motion to power 150 homes. And if this technology works out, then wave motion along the Pacific coast could generate up to 12% of the U.S.’s present power needs if 100% utilized. In most of the U.S., if you want to drive legally, you need car insurance. The insurance covers damages to your car if it’s damaged...
'Beam me down some energy': Giant Pentagon, tiny Palau eye space solar powe
2007-12-24 00:20:00 While great nations fretted over coal, oil and global warming, one of the smallest at the U.N. climate conference was looking toward the heavens for its energy. The annual meeting's corridors can be a sounding board for unlikely ''solutions'' to climate change - from filling the skies with soot to block the sun, to cultivating oceans of seaweed to absorb the atmosphere's heat-trapping carbon dioxide. Unlike other ideas, however, one this year had an influential backer, the Pentagon, which is investigating whether space-based solar power - beaming energy down from satellites - will provide ''affordable, clean, safe, reliable, sustainable and expandable energy for mankind.'' Tommy Remengesau Jr. is interested, too. ''We'd like to look at it,'' said the president of the tiny western Pacific nation of Palau. The Defense Department this October quietly issued a 75-page study conducted for its National Security Spa...

A piano recital by Young-Joo Lee in Palau Altea, Altea, Spain
2007-11-22 10:34:00 I claim to be a music lover and I attend a lot of concerts and recitals, so I don’t try to write a review every time, except for a few notes for my journal. But sometimes the playing is so perfect, the interpretations so poignant that the experience demands a record, if only to help publicise real, perhaps exceptional talent. And so it was with Young-Joo Lee, a Korean pianist. She gave her concert to the Amigos de la Musica de la Marina Baixa on November 9 2007 in Altea’s Palau on Spain’s Costa Blanca.In summary, her programme looked rather conventional. It featured Haydn, Rachmaninov, List, Ravel and Prokofiev. I envisaged a classical sonata played as a loosener, a couple of preludes, a showpiece, perhaps a little dead princess and then something from the tuneful end of Prokofiev to round things off. I am not suggesting that concert programmes offered to the Amigos de la Musica tend to be predictable. Quite the contrary, they tend to the ambitions, but then I am always scepti...
Coral Kingdoms
2007-10-30 17:44:00 A Fijian reef explodes in color as a school of anthias swims past. If a soft coral hosts zooxanthellae (the algae that give coral the nutrients it needs to grow) and the water becomes too warm, the algae leave and the soft coral die. Unlike hard corals, soft corals don?t leave a limestone skeleton behind and cannot regenerate.Photograph by Tim LamanAppearing as flowers of the sea, the tentacles of an orange cup coral reach out in the waters of the Caroline Islands in Micronesia.

Palau Steps Up for Disarmament
2007-08-08 01:06:00 Palau is asserting its sovereignty in new ways (perhaps as confidence wanes in the value of their 2003 inclusion in the Bush Administration?s ?Coalition of the Willing?).The Associated Press reports that Palau has ratified the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty (CTBT), bringing the number of states who have ratified the Treaty to 139.Also of note, Radio New Zealand International reported on August 1, 2007 that Palau was elected as one of 21 Vice-Presidents of the United Nations General Assembly, the smallest country every to hold that post, according to Marianas Variety. Let?s hope that Palau uses this important moment for small state diplomacy to advance the universality of the CTBT. If Palau campaigns to bring small states into the CTBT at the General Assembly, they will be successful. More small states ratifying the Treaty would mean less political cover for those that remain outside, advancing the cause of early entry-into-force. In this way, Palau could make a historicall...

Wonderful Palau: from Minjuan
2007-07-29 04:22:00 I just finished a two-week teaching and tour in Palau. I taught EDTEC 572 to a cohort of students from Palau. A great majority of them are teachers from Palau public schools, including an untouched island in the far north, Kayagnel. I had the great fortune visiting Kayagnel with Valentina, a student who was born there. The boat was small and the ocean was rough; but I still had a great time!My last day there was a day to remember. I snorkeled at three different places. Because I do not swim well, a high school student who is working on the boat, pulled me everywhere with a life jacket. I saw beautiful corals and swam with the famous mushroom-like Jelly fish. Before ending the last class, the students gave me a beautiful set of necklace, earrings, and bracelet, all made with Palau money beads. They only gave these to special people. According to the custom, a male needs to put the necklace on me. Smyth was charged with the mission and he was nervous. He had to ask Melissa for help. E...

Held in Omaha, the event was the largest outdoor festival ever in Nebraska’s history and brought together a confirmed 275 churches – about one-quarter of the total – from around the area.
