croxfiber's joke
A boy at the age of 13 years old, known as Joe, burst into the house, crying. His mother asked him what the problem was
Joe - Daddy and I were fishing and he hooked a giant fish. Really big! Then, while he was reeling it in, the line busted and the fish got away..
His mother - Come on Joe, a big boy like you shouldn't be crying about an accident like that. You should have just laughed it off
Joe - That's just what I did, mommy! daddy was mad & shouted at me..
hahahahehehhehe

ecosystems - worth saving?

what is an ecosystem?
it consists of interdependent communities of plants, animals, microscopic organisms & physical environment. all these different elements interact & form a complex whole, with properties that are unique to that particular combination of living & non living elements

energy flow & material cycles

ecosystem boundaries are generally delineated by climate: desert ecosystems in the subtropics, tropical rainforest ecosystems near the equator & tundra ecosystems near the poles

distribution of biomes (biome is used to describe a major vegetation type such as tropical rain forest, grassland, tundra etc, extending over a large geographic area)

as climates have changed in the geologic past, ecosystems have shifted in response but past climate changes were slower than the projected future changes

climate patters affect biome distributions

aquatic ecosystems

why we need wetlands?

wetlands provide an important service to our surroundings. storm waters flowing into a wetland lose energy & spread out across a broad area, thus reducing flooding downstream. furthermore, sediment & contaminants, such as iron & acidity from mine runoff & nitrogen from farm fertilizers, are removed as water percolates through wetlands before entering our drinking & irrigation water

wetlands are also biologically diverse ecosystems, providing home for endangered species and a refuge for migrating birds. this make them ideal places for hiking, bird watching, canoeing & fishing


worth saving
ecosystems are valuable to humanity because they assist us with:
provisions: food (seeds, fruits, game, spices); fiber (wood, textiles); medical & cosmetic products (dyes, scents)

environmental regulations: climate & water regulations; water & air purification, carbon sequestration; protection from natural disasters, disease & pests

cultural benefits: appreciation of, & communion with, the natural world; recreational activities


game on..

lets fish..


should i grow up, hope to see you..

striked! croxfiber's obligation - who is next to him, should get a fishnet!

haz alamrox - it's a thrill to net a fish
abgCF - a skill should apply to do the netting

tips: fish is alarmed by the obvious landing net! let the net rim well submerged / keep the net low in the water (tenggalamkan dengan sempurna) before it reach us.. when the fish is played out, it should be drawn over a fully submerged net & lift the net out of the water


anjun or multi-hooked (azz as in persian) so lucky.. the tail's caught & hooked!

african pompano (alectis ciliaris), known as daimond trevally / tawih

gumbir! (we aint sure is it known as rock bass or ..., please correct us dear anglers), eventho it's small.. the way gumbir danced & fought.. similar to barramundi! should it be a rock bass (amblopliters rupestris), it's a game fish!
rock bass - the mottled, dark olive rock bass has distinctive red eyes & a large mouth, as well as a white or gold margin to the dark spot on its gill cover. It's most common in clear, rocky streams & rocky bottom vegetation. maximum weight is about 1.36 kg (3 lb)

kingdom of the two seas

dorood.. salaam..hello

bahrain is the arabic term for two seas, referring to the freshwater springs that are found within the salty seas surrounding it

bahrain is sometimes described as "middle east lite" because it combines modern infrastructure with an arabian gulf identity and, unlike other countries in the region, its prosperity is not solely a reflection of the size of its oil wealth, but is also related to the creation of an indigenous middle class

best time to visit bahrain is november-march, with october & april being just bearable. be sure to take along a sweater during december-march as evenings can be cool. bahrain's summer, which is from may-september, is very hot and humid, though occasional cool northerly winds blow to provide some relief. more frequent are the qaws, the hot, dry summer winds that can bring sandstorms



when can i fly to bahrain..ZzzZzz

come on fish.. if u aint here, i 'll use croxfiber's boat.. off to bahrain tomorrow hehehe
