Taking a piece of antler or bone, usually from a caribou, the Inuit carved a long slit through it – wide enough to give its wearer the ability to see but narrow enough

Zita Cobb opened the Fogo Island Inn, a 29-suite facility, on Newfoundland’s Fogo Island in 2012. It is a beautiful edifice, combining modern architectural themes with traditional Newfoundland constructional elements, providing travelers with a respite from today’s hectic world. It is also the basis for a unique business model: taking a small, almost quaint Newfoundland coastal town and making the community itself – its people, culture and environment - the main attraction for visitors.

A group from the University of Maryland and NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center went to Pongara National Park in Gabon to gather data on a massive Mangrove forest: the structure of the trees, their thickness and density, and even the biomass below the ground. These data will help answer questions on carbon storage, coastline degradation, and help them compare to other mangrove forest structures around the
