To order a copy of this program visit http://www.tmwmedia.com/productlisting/details/the-amazing-red-crabs-of-christmas-island The Amazing Red Crabs of Christmas Island Christmas Island, discovered December 25, 1643, is just a spec of land in the Indian Ocean. The annual red crab migration at the beginning of the rainy season, however, is so massive it can be seen from the air. It has been named a wonder of the natural world. This program follows this terrestrial arthropod from its rainforest burrow, across dangerous landscape to the ocean to mate. The park offers the perfect forest ecosystem for the Christmas Island Red Crab, which is endemic to the Cocos Islands and Christmas Island, both in the Indian Ocean. The Red Crabs rely on the rainy season that comes in November or December to initiate their migratory journey from the forests to the coasts. Their timing must be precise because the breeding sequence is also linked to the phases of the moon. Although the Red Crabs live inland, they require a certain level of moisture on their gills to survive. Their journey is filled with many obstacles. The risk of dehydration, predators, and automobile traffic cut the migration short for many crabs. However, locals on Christmas Island have built fences and tunnels to corral the crabs and help funnel them safely under roads to their final breeding destinations on the coasts. After mating, the males will return to their original forest homes, while the females will remain for several weeks to spawn. A large percentage of their offspring will not survive. Sea conditions, ocean predators such as manta rays and huge whale sharks, and possible lack of rains will affect the chances that the larva will survive. However, it only takes two successful years out of every ten to keep their populations healthy.

GT Fishing Christmas Island with Poppers

Order: Reorder
Duration: 35:31
Updated: 22 Nov 2013

Watch one of the very first exploratory trips to Christmas Island back more years than I would like to mention. This was the very first time Christmas Island had been explored with big big poppers. We had listened to stories about people having a go for GT's as a day off from the fly-fishing. You should of seen the guides faces when we turned up with all the large tackle, their faces just dropped and they asked us if we had anything smaller.... They said the lures were too big.... I asked what was the best day they had ever had fishing for GT's. The reply was 4 fish ... 4 ... I thought that's not many, was that per person? No per boat...Oh had we come to the wrong place had I got it all wrong? Well cut along story short on the first day we managed 11pr boat and the fishing only got better as the days went on. We even managed some time off for Wahoo and Tuna... Now if you go to Christmas Island and wish to popper fish, all the lodges expect you to turn up with big lures, popper rods and very strong reels. It was great to be some of the first to open up this side of the fishery and teach the guides some new styles of fishing. Hope you enjoy the video, if anyone wants further information check out our website at www.sportquestholidays.com Regards The Sportquest Team

It has a population of 2,072 residents who live in a number of "Settlement areas" on the northern tip of the island: Flying Fish Cove (also known as Kampong), Silver City, Poon Saan, and Drumsite. The majority of the population is Chinese Australian. It is called Christmas Island because it was discovered on Christmas Day. The island's geographic isolation and history of minimal human disturbance has led to a high level of endemism among its flora and fauna, which is of significant interest to scientists and naturalists.[2] 63% of its 135 square kilometres (52 sq mi) is an Australian national park. There exist large areas of primary monsoonal forest. Phosphate, deposited originally as guano, has been mined on the island for many years. Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas_Island

Bali Travel Guide

Updated: 05 May 2014

Bali Travel Guide: Bali, the famed Island of the Gods, with its varied landscape of hills and mountains, rugged coastlines and sandy beaches, lush rice terraces and barren volcanic hillsides all providing a picturesque backdrop to its colourful, deeply spiritual and unique culture, stakes a serious claim to be paradise on earth. With world-class surfing and diving, a large number of cultural, historical and archaeological attractions, and an enormous range of accommodations, this is one of the world's most popular island destinations and one which consistently wins travel awards. Bali has something to offer a very broad market of visitors from young back-packers right through to the super-rich. Bali is one of more than 17,000 islands in the Indonesian archipelago and is located just over 2 kilometres (almost 1.5 miles) from the eastern tip of the island of Java and west of the island of Lombok. The island, home to about 4 million people, is approximately 144 kilometres (90 mi.) from east to west and 80 kilometres (50 mi.) north to south. The word "paradise" is used a lot in Bali and not without reason. The combination of friendly, hospitable people, a magnificently visual culture infused with spirituality and (not least) spectacular beaches with great surfing and diving have made Bali Indonesia's unrivaled number one tourist attraction. Eighty percent of international visitors to Indonesia visit Bali and Bali alone. The popularity is not without its flip sides— like many places in the island's South, once paradisiacal Kuta has degenerated into a congested warren of concrete, touts and scammers extracting a living by overcharging tourists. The island's visibility has also drawn the unwanted attention of terrorists in 2002 and 2005; however Bali has managed to retain its magic. Bali is a wonderful destination with something for everyone, and though heavily travelled, it is still easy to find some peace and quiet, if you like. Avoid the South of the island if you want a more traditional and genuine Balinese experience. A consideration is the tourist season and Bali can get very crowded in August and September and again at Christmas and New Year. Australians also visit during school holidays in early April, late June and late September, while domestic tourists from elsewhere in Indonesia visit during national holidays. Outside these peak seasons, Bali can be surprisingly quiet and good discounts on accommodation are often available. Have Fun in your Bali Travel Guide! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RxmPcLACiQY

Kiribati Travel Guide

Duration: 9:39
Updated: 08 May 2014

Kiribati Travel Guide: Curving its way above and below the equator, the Republic of Kiribati (pronounced 'Kiri-bas') encompasses the Gilbert, Phoenix and Line Islands, and was known under British rule as the Gilbert Islands. Measured by land size Kiribati is a tiny nation of just over 810 sq km, but its 33 atolls span a huge 3.5 million sq km of the Pacific. Most atolls surround turquoise lagoons and barely rise above the surrounding ocean, so it's rare to be out of the sight and sound of the sea. Kiribati's recent colonial and WWII history has had little impact on the outer islands, where the people subsist on coconuts, breadfruit and fish as they have done for centuries. Even on the main island, Tarawa, most locals live in traditional raised thatched huts. Western influence is increasing, though, in the form of cars, bars, movies and the Internet, and inevitably there's an escalating urban drift from the outer islands to Tarawa. The people of the islands are known as I-Kiribati. Wide-eyed children may chirp a bold 'mauri' (hello) to passing strangers, while their elders tend towards a laconic raise of an eyebrow in greeting. Nothing happens fast here, so wind down, relax and enjoy living on island time. Enjoy Your Kiribati Travel Guide! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AyZ30c9osM0

World Travel https://www.youtube.com/user/World1Tube Madeira, Portugal Travel Guide http://bit.ly/1dkv4Rz Shepherd Entertainment takes you on a tour of Funchal, the capital of Madeira Island, Portugal. Visit Funchal on Madeira Island, Portugal part 3/4 The city park used to belong to the Franciscan Monastery and its immediate vicinity stand the Madeira wine company building, a part of which still prefers the basic walls and cellars of the monastery. You can not only taste and buy wine here, but during a guided tour we can visit the cellars that have the capacity of 10,000 barrels and also an exhibition of wine making devices. The most famous local producers among them all the English horticulturist who then lived here founded the Madeira wine association at the beginning of the 20th century. Nearly half of the wine experts of the island belong to them even today. Those who are interested in wine can also visit the Museo de Vinio which represents interesting facts from the history of Madeira wine. Four private producers in Funchal are equipped to welcome tourists. The sellers and bottlers are charmingly old fashioned places and Barbetos wine taster at the interior by the Dela Vera and bring forth the atmosphere is most rustic. The Enriquez cellar and Comra de Loboush also shows production techniques and besides wine, they also produce other alcoholic beverages such as rhum and brandy which are considered local specialties. Madeira wine became fashionable in the 19th century. This noble beverage should only be slipped slowly, the drier ones as a aperitif before a meal, the sweeter ones during the dessert or as digestives. Its 18 volume alcoholic content comes from the brandy made from older Madeira and is mixed with them. In line of Crowned Prince Henry's order, the Italian Luigi Caramosto brought the first grape vines from Greece in 1455. There's also wine made from the grapes but that never became as famous and tasty as that of Maderia. Specialist still debate if that can be attributed to the climate or the production techniques, it was also support for the wine spreading that English King Charles the Second ordered and embargo against America. At this time Madeira became the only non European wine in Europe, its exoticism also made it the favorite drink of the rulers. They got American kinds that were more disease resistant and then a few years later, the wine of these became almost as excellent as before. Rio Madeira is produced in four flavors, Malvasia grapes provide a sweet version, Bual, semi sweet, Verdelho semi dry and Sercial are the dry ones. The pure version of this can only be tasted after 20 years of aging. The reserved, special reserved and extra reserved wines aged to a five, ten or 15 years are already mixtures of this kinds as well as Colheita which however is aged for only three years. A long cue of taxing is waiting for passengers on the Avenida Ariaga and they don't wait in vain, and Funchal you can choose to go by taxi instead of renting a car. The main road running parallel to the coast loose the huge Santa Kantarina Park from the right and across is the square named after the Enfant. The Enfant was sailor Henry who himself did not sail but experience planning and supporting explorer journeys. One of the most tangible results was actually Sarcouse's journey in the occupation of Madeira. The road widens when passing the garden of the former Franciscan Monastery in the head quarters of the wine association. This is where the usual Christmas decorations are displayed. One of the effects of the Moore's was the prospering of the wall tile art in Spain and Portugal. These hand painted and acrylic tiles were used mainly in churches but also later became general in the decoration of residences. The use of a typical tile is once again in fashion.

A man looks at the Papal Cross in Phoenix Park, Dublin, Ireland, Wednesday May, 20, 2009. A fiercely debated, nine-year investigation into Ireland's Roman Catholic-run institutions says priests and nuns terrorized thousands of boys and girls in workhouse-style schools for decades _ and government inspectors failed to stop the chronic beatings, rapes and humiliation. High Court Justice Sean Ryan on Wednesday unveiled the 2,600-page final report of Ireland's Commission to Inquire Into Child Abuse, which is based on testimony from thousands of former students and officials from more than 250 church-run institutions.

Eine Frage der Begierde
Zerbrechlich
Wie ein Baby in deinen Armen
Sei sanft zu mir
Ich wuerde dir nie absichtlich weh tun
Entschuldigungen
Sind alles, was du von mir zu bekommen scheinst
Aber wie ein Kind
Muss ich laecheln
Wenn du dich um mich sorgst
Und du weisst:
Es ist eine Frage der Begierde
Es ist eine Frage des Vertrauens
Es geht darum, nicht zuzulassen
Dass alles, was wir aufgebaut haben
Zu Staub verfaellt
Es sind all diese Sachen und noch mehr
Was uns zusammenhaelt
Unabhaengigkeit
Ist immer noch wichtig fuer uns, obwohl (wir feststellen)
Dass es leicht ist, den dummen Fehler zu begehen
Den anderen gehen zu lassen (Weisst du, was ich meine?)
Meine Schwaechen
Du kennst jede einzelne (Das macht mir Angst)
Aber ich muss mehr trinken
Mehr, als du zu denken scheinst
Bevor ich jemandem gehoere
Und du weisst:
Es ist eine Frage der Begierde
Es ist eine Frage des Vertrauens
Es geht darum, nicht zuzulassen
Dass alles, was wir aufgebaut haben
Zu Staub verfaellt
Es sind all diese Sachen und noch mehr
Was uns zusammenhaelt
Kuess mich zum Abschied
Wenn ich auf mich selbst gestellt bin
Aber du weisst, dass ich lieber daheim waere
