White Wine Lodged In Throat

Penalties for those who collected and sold in Venezuela

From: DIARIOELTIEMPO.COM.VE

Lisbet BECERRA administrative and criminal sanctions provided for in the Act Forest Act and Forest Management, provides penalties with fines of 5000 to 7000 tax units for those citizens who are involved in this environmental crime.
Once again we must insist on the call of environmental awareness, to prevent the extraction and sale of moss this Christmas, since despite the number of campaigns that are performed annually in this regard, it seems that much still population assume no ends and really understand the meaning, the seriousness of the case and the importance of caring and responsible water use and to protect the environment.

Our friend musguito
.

Moss is a small green plant that lives in forests and moors, on the ground, rocks and sticks, its importance lies in collecting a lot of water and keep for a long time so you always have in the forests and in our homes.

is protective of the soil, is the first born in soils with no plants, functions as a mattress that receives and protects the seeds that fall from the trees. The seeds found in them a lot of water and nutrients necessary for life. They also provide homes and food for many animals. Mosses intercept rain, absorbing up to 50% of it.

protect the water sources are generating ambient moisture, help keep moisture in the forest. Are protective and stabilizing soil, stop erosion, preventing landslides.

San Jose on Friday morning several members of the Armed Forces stationed in El Empalme found 24 sacks of wool for making content on the public highway, which was being extracted from a mountainous area protected.

Tribute to Dr. Gabriela Hassel

Latin American Colleagues,

As part of volume 91 (3-4) of the journal Nova Hedwigia, we organized a humble tribute posthumously to Dr. Hassel Menendez, with emphasis on the study of bryophytes Hemisphere South. Hassel Dr. Menendez has been a great source of inspiration and mentor to many American students, and always had great praise from bryologists worldwide.

The volume contains the biography and articles published during his productive career. Here is a sample list of papers in the volume.

Regards,

Juan Carlos

Get Rid Of Burning Mouth

Menendez Found the oldest fossils of plants

Found the oldest fossils of plants

From: http://www.lavoz.com.ar/ciudadanos/hallan-los-fosiles -more-old-to-plant

Ricardo Astini, a geologist at UNC, tiny fossilized spores found in the forest of Jujuy, the oldest evidence of terrestrial flora.

life came under the protection of the seas. More than three billion years the Earth's surface was very hostile. There was no oxygen and the sun was very strong because there was no ozone layer.

The first photosynthetic organisms of the ocean began to fill the atmosphere of oxygen and ozone. But the Earth was a desert. Then, the first plants began to colonize the sea coast.

That happened 470 million years ago, according to the latest study published in the scientific journal New Phytologist

the participation of the geologist Richard Astini, National University of Cordoba (UNC).

The discovery occurred in river sediments Chapels in the jungle Jujuy. There they found fossilized microspores five floors.

Astini works in the Research Center Earth Sciences (Cicterra) of the UNC and CONICET. Also participating were researchers at the Argentine Institute of Snow Research, Glaciology and Environmental Sciences Mendoza (IANIGLA) and Liege University (Belgium).

This finding advances in 10 million years the emergence of land plants. Earlier fossils dating back 460 million years and were found in Czech Republic and Saudi Arabia.

"We worked consistently throughout the range. First we studied paleoenvironmental and we realized that the area was an estuary primitive terrestrial plant sites where anyone could grow, "explains Astini.

With these data, the researchers took samples of clay rocks, with more potential to preserve microfossils.

These rocks are treated with acids that brought light to the microspores.

"They have few persons microns (one millimeter a thousand microns) and are translucent. The reason is because they have preserved a cover that protects them. The same protection is an evolutionary trait that allowed plants to colonize the Earth's surface, "he says.

spores are a mechanism of plant reproduction. In the sea are naked, but out of it need a cover to protect them from sun, wind and oxygen that corrodes. Astini

explains that these microspores belong to a group of plants called liverworts, very simple, similar to mosses and still exist. "They are little girls with simple green leaves. Are not vertical, but creeping "he says.

He adds that the plants known to people, vascular, emerged 100 million years after the fossils found by him. Dating

. The age was determined from animal microfossils found in the same stratum and that he knows his age and evolution.

"stratigraphic evidence indicated they were from the Ordovician era (490 million to 440 million years ago), animal fossils allow us to better refine the period, "he said.

colonization of the land surface by plants was a revolution in the history of life. By their presence, the climate became less hostile and allowed a large biodiversity of living organisms evolve, including humans.

Recalling

I came across some emails, chats, photos ... I had a disturbing regression, I read but it was not me, do not recognize myself in those letters, not so long ago they were written, people who were targeted are gone, there is no ill-disguised anger, or desire of that embrace or that absurd flirtation or friendship that was not.

few days ago I received a message from the appellant, kindly invited me to go home and help clean beyond stupid that sounds now, I thought a couple of years ago would have helped, I would have looked funny, it would the preamble was never move because there was no future and yet ... however this we did try to start many times, that game will be different now with the cheating to me this time ... maybe if you believe Then one night

any knock on my door, my cynical friend, he returned full of blame for broken promises that I did not remember, back apologizing and wanting to settle back into my life as if time had not passed, as if I were it and was waiting to mend his loneliness.

Ghosts and mean nothing, but were important, once loved, I waited, I wanted ...
ethereal
That is love ... even that you think eternal
