Nice!

Update from Lake Compounce: Due to the significant likelihood of thunderstorms and lightning theRead More entire time we would be open which would cause us to close rides, Lake Compounce will not be opening today, Saturday, May 11th. We will open tomorrow, May 12, at 11am. So sorry for the inconvenience.

Any public dock that gets you out over the water a bit. Looking at Norwalk, maybe the one outsideRead More our IMAX theater, or at the Visitor Dock on the other side of the drawbridge. Perhaps the little bridges to Bell Island (in Rowayton) or Canfield Island (east of Calf Pasture Beach), but parking is an issue there. Not sure where you are, but here's a website that tells you all public beach access points in CT: www.lisrc.uconn.edu/coastalaccess/searchtown.asp

Thanks for this article. What a fun idea to go crabbing. Can you recommend any crabbing locationRead More that would be accessible by the public? I'm afraid I'm from an inland CT town and know very little about the waterfront in our fair state.

You are kidding right? DEEP killed the lobster industry by using insecticides in trying to thwartRead More West Nile virus that also killed - killed - lobsters. Lobsters take 5-7 years to get to 1 pound, crabs are mature after 1 year.

Leslie, you are correct and thank you. I seemed to have gotten my amusement parks confused. ThankRead More you...:)

Actually, Lake Compounce in Bristol, CT is generally recognized as the "oldest and longestRead More running amusement park in the United State" http://www.americasbestonline.net/index.php/pages/amusementparkoldest.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amusement_park http://www.offbeattravel.com/old.html

Thank you very much for the comment Susan. You are absolutely correct and dense breast tissue willRead More be discussed at this talk.

This article leaves out one of the most important risk factors - having dense breast tissue! NotRead More that the dense quality causes the disease, but the fact that mammograms often come back "normal" when they are not! Every woman should know (it is her legal right) her breast density number. Please go to: http://www.areyoudenseadvocacy.org/ I personally know 3 people that were told they were all normal. They pushed for further tests (ultrasound and MRI) and found they had stage 3.

How do you know they didn't pay for that one as an "advertorial" piece?

Sorry you don't get it. Nah, I'm not.

Life, Awesome attempt to demonstrate your word skills. I would suggest you focus more on logic,Read More however. For example, how could you view the world through rose colored glasses with your eyes closed? You love little tiny idioms, but when ridiculing people for their lack of ability to reason, please employ reason.

It is necessary to control overpopulation of certain species such as deer and beaver in some areas,Read More or you will see great loss and balance of natural habitats that serve all wildlife and possible extinction of many other species. There are tight controls in place that regulate trapping. Beaver in particular have the ability to completely alter one natural habitat type and replace with another to suit their needs. If left unmonitored it can create havoc to humans and other species. There are various techniques to try to fool the beavers into not completely blocking water flow, by using underground pipes that are placed below their dams (referred to as beaver deceivers) but it can be costly.

I love hearing this. If my posts bring you a taste of science that you enjoy reading, it makes myRead More small effort all the more satisfying.

Aaron - glad to see you are back! I share you articles with my daughter who currently attendsRead More college in Vermont. We both really enjoy them.
