So I have taken some time off to decompress from making of the trailer. Went back to normalcy, working, drinking, walking, epic-ly jamming with friends, eating fancy pizza. I always think it’s important to have an instituted “No-Fly Zone” following a large creative undertaking, y’know a way to refill the taken that has been so efficiently spent.

DYING WHALES MAY BE A 12-YEAR CURSE

Almost 90 pilot whales and dolphins beached and died along the Australian west coast last week. Experts warned there could be more such mass deaths because the event follows a 12-year cycle of cooler south-bound nutrient rich currents that swell fish stock. This was the second mass stranding, bringing the total number of mortalities to 500. Recently, 200 cetaceans stranded and died on King Island in a single incident.

SLAUGHTER INEVITABLE

Pro-whaling nations are gaining ground in their effort to break the deadlock and resume slaughtering whales. The IWC indicated it will will continue to explore a plan to allow Japan to carry out '‘commercial whaling' in exchange for reduced hunting for 'scientific research' purposes. Anti-whaling activists did enjoy one victory, when the prime minister of Dominica announced at the "International Ocean Life Symposium" that his government would not support Japan's whale-killing position at the I

JAPANESE WHALERS THWARTED...FOR NOW

Sea Shepherd Conservation Society's boat, Steve Irwin, arrived in Hobart on February 2o 2oo9, after a series of violent clashes with Japanese whalers in the Southern Ocean.
