A "supermoon"or perigee-syzygy is a full moon that during its elliptical orbit passes closest to the Earth. For more cool info visit this link. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supermoon  We had to use the manual setting on our point and shoot camera, ISO 100  F/8 and 1/80 shutter speed.

Hands down the best Parade of the 2012 Mardi Gras for me. Of course there were lots of people but I never felt crowded. I did feel sorry for the women that were with us though, it seemed like they underestimated the porta potties by about 10 thousand people. They were overflowing before we even got to our spot. Will Ferrel was awesome though standing on the float with a cow bell in hand, everyone including our group was yelling, "More Cowbell!" and he delivered.

Please urge Congress to oppose the Internet Blacklist Legislation, known as the PROTECT-IP Act in the Senate and the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) in the House. This legislation seeks to give the executive branch power to conduct slash-and-burn campaigns against websites that allegedly host – or even link to – content that infringes on intellectual property rights. That would “disappear” whole domain names, fundamentally undermining Internet security, and/or choke off their financial support. The Internet Blacklist Legislation puts more sites than ever at risk, effectively upending the DMCA safe harbors that have been crucial to the growth of Internet innovation and creativity.

Sadly, these short-sighted and dangerous bills won’t do much to stop online infringement – but they will jeopardize our ability to speak and read online with the kind of freedom we cherish in the offline world. Deep-pocketed Hollywood lobbyists are aggressively pushing to control and censor the open Internet, willing to sacrifice free speech and our Internet culture in hopes of controlling how people view their movies and products.

We need to stop this bill before it goes any further. Will you contact your representatives in Congress and urge them to oppose the Internet Blacklist Legislation? Visit: https://eff.org/r.C8A

We where on a whale watching cruise out of Monterey bay and where lucky enough to see a pod of Transient killer whales taking on a pod of 300+ Short-beaked common dolphins. It was so amazing watching these 5 killer whales split the pod of dolphins in half and drive half of them into deeper water and past our boat. When they split the pod they probably took a younger dolphin turned around in the confusion, all we saw of the kill was the juvenile whale jumping and playing and the birds cleaning up the scraps.
