the white sea is the natural habitat. far from the civilized world in the north of russia on the coast of the white sea sea canaries are communicating with people with great pleasure in the open waters. could not take you on they are behaving strangely today. why you had a canary why did you feel like giving us a song or it was something wrong with your throat. gargle before you start singing . a water your best. throat some fish oil. now let's try to get off the. sailors have dubbed baluga whales canaries because of the peculiar sounds they make . as much they want to bring us tearing. skin color distinguishes these marine mammals from their relatives. baluga cobs are of a dark blue color. when they're one year old they turn gray like these two female whales. later their skin acquires a milky shade. yes this is exactly how they should be kept but the people in society should know that the beluga whale is not a stupid fish as many believe that. we need to tell them that these intelligent creatures are worthy of perspex a

the long distance sea trips. by the women went fishing in the city on rowing boats they caught fish many kilometers away from their homes and they went by these robots not by ships you can still see women on such boats spin with their own a particular way saddle as men usually sit with their backs facing forward as a negative but local women sit facing each other like this. why do that is. also because there's only so the course of the trip to a fishing area takes a long time and those in a moment. in winter time far from. their own was several shots out to sea belonging to divers. they were located in front of the rocky shore of bio filter bank. the white seas under the influence of the tide it was a level of the shore rises up and down twice a day. in the bay even in winter you can see a change of ice level of the coastline. there are daily tides in the white c. there triggered by the moon's orbit around the earth you have the amplitude of high and low tides in the wide sea is about two mazes both in summer and

in order to get to the depths of the like sea winter divers first have to break through the frozen sea. the thickness of ice is about forty to fifty centimeters in the diving spot. it is hard work so the divers take the short intervals. but. this device was invented by an ancient people it's a type of leader that was taken it a step further and designed an intelligent device for snow deals to lift chunks of ice nothing of the kind anywhere else in the world this original structure does the job of full girlyman. i styling in the white sea is a serious challenge in winter the water is bitterly cold. several hotspots bonuses are situated near every water hole here the divers change and comfort themselves after diving. according to international diving regulations should be certified by the professional association of diving instructor has the full venturing on to the ice. divers must be wearing dry suits to make sure they don't freeze in the water the user is insolated by a small film and into the suit ok ok so you have to meet up and then you have priced it which is holding it has sealed

it took 3 trips actually before we got to the sea. and all over at the edges of the dunes and sometimes even out in the middle of the dunes where you get into a deep hole, you will find a broken ceramic ojalla, you will find a sea shell that somebody carried in there, you will pick up the shell going what were you doing out here, why were you walking in this place, were you seeing it the same way i'm seeing it? were you floating like a ghost or were you trudging and swimming and dragging yourself? what were you doing out here? on the last trip out, we did a lot of night walking. and we walked barefoot for the most part because it's much easier than walking in boots and it's just nice to walk barefoot for days and days at a time. on that trip in particular there were a lot of sidewinders out in the dunes which made for an interesting element because the previous trip there had been snakes but not so many. you would wake up in the morning and there would be these elegant sidewinder tracks everywhere. the guy who dropped us off has the pr

local time when the concordia set out to sea. round 9:30 p.m., it was scheduled to pass giglio, a small rocky island. and, there should have been no mistaking where the vessel was. in addition to her vast array of amenities the concordia was outfitted with state of the art navigation technology and every land mass, every out cropping and rock clearly visible on both electronic and paper charts and the perils of the island would be clearly visible to anyone paying attention and the captain, steered his huge vessel toward the giglio shore. several sources report that the captain wanted to sound his ship's horn as he passed the island. to salute a retired admiral of the cruise line, who lived ashore. i wouldn't want to be the captain of the titanic, or navigate between icebergs, the captain said in his interview in 2010. adding, these days, everything is much safer. thanks to modern technical instruments. but all the electronic instruments in the world could not save the concordia, steaming toward disaster. when w w return, fine coun

even in the early 20th century sailing on the high seas was a kind of adventure travel, icebergs, storms. hidden reefs. all real risks. far fewer people think of the ocean in that way today. will this tragedy make them think again? >>> oo stranded on the rocks off the coast of tuscany it has the world asking how can this happen in 2012? sailing the seas since 2006 the ocean liner costa concordia was the first of a new class of ships created specifically for a division of carnival cruise line built in italy it cost approximately half a billion dollars. she measures 950 from stem to stern bigger than the titanic. heavier than the uss enterprise america's first nuclear aircraft carrier. she is longer than 3 football fields and a football field was one of the few amenities not on board. concordia was the stuff of dreams for vacationers from around the world. the 65,000 square foot fitness sinter 5 jacuzzis, 5 restaurants, 13 bars, a casino, a disco deck, a multi level theater and more than 1500 cabins of various shapes and sizes. >> if you look at the recent advertising of the cruise line th
