The Bing search engine homepage "image of the day" for Monday, May 13, 2013 is Anhumas Abyss, a cavern with a deep pool inside, near Bonito, Brazil. Fabulous!
Click here: Bing 5-13-13 The image rotates an awesome full 360 degrees.
After today, you can use the back button on the lower right of the homepage to step backward one day at a time to find it.

Angel's Perch Movie
Now mobile users can text to donate to Angel's Perch!
Text ANGELS to 85944 to donate $10
($10 will be added to your next cell phone bill, Data and Messaging rates may apply)
More information on the project and other ways to donate and get involved can be found on the film's website: http://angelsperch.com/donate/
This is going to be a great film, one of an emotional journey. Writer/Producer J.T. Arbogast's grandmother was lost to Alzheimer's Disease and she was from the Cass area of West Virginia. That's where the bulk of the film will be shot.
I also lost a grandmother to the disease. She was my father's mom. I can remember when she reached the point that she would think my toddler daughter was me. Sadly, she would have to be reminded that I had grown up and had a child of my own.
I've supported the project and encourage others to as well. And now, it's even easier to do with Text to Donate by texting ANGELS to 85944. See the web site for more information: http://angelsperch.com

Gopher Day 2012
Gopher Day 2012 has been cancelled.
Digby has decided to "occupy" the couch and watch an Ice Age movie. So there will be no lofty prognostications from him on this 3rd annual Gopher Day 2012. I suppose it's going to be more of a sloth day, but he's happy!

USGS Earthquake Web Site
Maddy here!
Everyone who knows anything at all about me knows that I love, LOVE, geology. Since I've been in California for the past month my geological focus has been on earthquakes and I'd like to share an excellent web resource for earthquake information.
The web site of the USGS (United States Geological Survey) shows data for past and current earthquakes. The menu on the left side of the above linked page offers different options for viewing earthquake data such as:
That's all for now. I'm out!

- Real-Time - World (from the present time to seven days prior)
- Past 8 - 30 days (recent history events)
- Significant (large or intense events)
- Lists and Maps (search by state, damage maps, etc.)
That's all for now. I'm out!
