I am the autumnal sun , Henry David Thoreau
I am the autumnal sun,
With autumn gales my race is run;
When will the hazel put forth its flowers,
Or the grape ripen under my bowers?
When will the harvest or the hunter’s moon
Turn my midnight into mid-noon?
I am all sere and yellow,
And to my core mellow.
The mast is dropping within my woods,
The winter is lurking within my moods,
And the rustling of the withered leaf
Is the constant music of my grief.
Be less curious about people and more curious about ideas. Marie Curie
(7 November 1867 – 4 July 1934)
Rhino Airlift Apparently the most humane way to transport darted black rhinos, 19 of these highly endangered animals were moved 1,500 km across South Africa to a secret location.
As of September, 309 black rhinos have been poached since the beginning of the year, all for their horns which are believed to have mythical powers of curing cancer. The last Javan rhino in Vietnam has reportedly been killed for its horn.
