They are important elements of our oceans’ eco systems and if destroyed, the fish will look for housing elsewhere and reduce food and tourism for the locals.

Local communities in Bali are largely dependent on fishing and tourism that revolves around coral reefs. On top of that, just like in other places around the Coral Triangle, coral reefs in Bali have been significantly threatened by the impact of development, bombing, cyanide fishing, and pollution.

Lack of planning and effectively managing threats against coral reefs is an on-going challenge throughout the country. People on the island are becoming more and more aware of the importance of preserving the marine resources and ecotourism looks like a good place to start. Travellers looking to reduce their overall impact on the island should investigate environmentally responsible luxury villas & resorts. cmference of There are many such underwater sculptures around the world, in tropical areas like Mexico and Central America.

During the past few years a huge controversy has emerged accusing the Smithsonian (and a host of skeptics and archaeologists) of covering up the discovery of hundreds of giant skeletons from Native American Indian mounds. Jim Vieira is one of the key people who began uncovering hundreds of newspaper accounts of giant skeletons after he became intrigued by his visits to stone chambers found primarily in northeastern states. To date, Vieira has pulled together about 1,500 accounts from newspapers and books published in the 1800s and early 1900s. 

The newspaper stories relate that the skeletons ranged in size from 7 feet to well over 18 feet in length. Vieira began issuing the reports, one at a time, every day on a popular Facebook page called Your Daily Giant. Vieira was subsequently attacked by skeptical bloggers. One of the skeptics, Jason Colavito, related that the giant reports came from misidentified mastodon/mammoth bones to outright hoaxes. However, Colavito didn't cite a single example of a hoax or a giant skeleton found in America that turned out to be a mastodon or mammoth. Colavito also wrote that modern paleopathology textbooks could explain other reports because repeated freezing and thawing of buried bones would expand bones "enough to turn a slightly average body into a gigantic one." Both of Colavito's assertions are astonishing claims evaluated below. 

Sex isn't a race, so take time to explore her. Focus on her thighs and lower belly. Make a mental circle 2 inches around the outside of her vagina and don't cross the line while you kiss, lick, and caress.  If you want morning sex, set your alarm at least 20 minutes early. A woman won't want sex if she's hurried, and she'll probably need about 20 minutes to reach orgasm. She'll give longer and more enthusiastic oral sex if you give her a verbal response. Even appreciative grunts are better than silence.  When you're all the way inside her, add side-to-side movement or up-and-down pelvic pressure against her clitoris to vary the stimulation.   Both you and your lady write five sexual fantasies down on five separate notebook cards. Then head to a restaurant where you can get a booth and some privacy in a public setting. Over dinner and wine, pull out the cards and make three piles—"yes," "maybe someday," and "not on your life." Put the possibles in a shoe box, and once a month pull out a winner.  Think of it as fat-burning foreplay. It will raise her dopamine levels, easing her anxieties. Bonus: Your post-run sweat has androstadienone, a testosterone derivative that spikes her arousal when she smells it. 
 The best compliments are the ones that involve multiple senses. "You have beautiful breasts" is nice. "You have beautiful breasts—they feel so soft and warm in my hands" is that much more intimate. If a woman who knows you're spoken for comes on to you, it's flattering. It's tempting. But remember that she's doing it to feed her own ego, not yours. She wants to see how much power she holds over you. And if you take her bait, she then knows she must be superior in every way to your sweetie. Deep down, she has nothing but contempt for both your male weakness and your mate's existence. That should really piss you off. Doggy-style tip: For over-the-top stimulation of her most nerve-packed parts, keep thrusting short and shallow, rather than deep and fast. The nerve-packed clitoris actually extends several inches under the skin on either side of her vagina (like a wishbone), which means you can massage it without direct pressure to the bud. Trace the extensions with flat, wide, extra-wet tongue strokes or slow finger zigzags. (Don't forget lube.) Then rub a slow spiral around the top, drawing closer with each pass. The combo of anticipation and indirect contact will bring her pleasure centers to life. To increase clitoral contact when she's on top, make a V with two fingers, and place it so the point of the V (just between the two knuckles) is directly over her clitoris. Your fingers should come down on either side of your penis as she rides you. This will stimulate the clitoris, inner labia, and urethra—as well as add intensity for you. Want to know if she likes to talk dirty? Tell her, "You make me think dirty thoughts." Ease in slowly. It's best to test the waters a bit, rather than immediately go for your deepest, kinkiest dirty talk right off the bat.
 

A British headteacher murdered while canoeing along the Amazon was tortured and sexually assaulted by a gang before being killed and dumped in the river, it has been claimed.

Horrific new details of the last moments of Emma Kelty's life were revealed in a confession made by one of the suspects shortly after the British kayaker's death.

Evanilson Gomes da Costa was found dead after going on the run in the wake of the murder having reportedly been shot by rival drug traffickers.

But before he died - and just hours after the death of Miss Kelty - the 24-year-old told a local villager what the gang had done, it has been claimed.

One of the men, Artur Gomes da Silva, claimed he tried to decapitate the headteacher with a machete. José Afonso Barradas Jr, police chief in the city of Coari, northwestern Brazil, said: 'He claimed he tried to cut her head off with a machete but failed.' 

The villager said da Costa had told him how his gang had come across Miss Kelty's tent and, believing it to belong to drug traffickers, had opened fire from 50m away.

The unnamed villager added: 'The woman was hit in the arm. She started waving frantically and screaming for help.'

But still believing she was transporting drugs, they approached the tent and started attacking her, cutting off her hair with a knife as they ordered to hand over narcotics. One of the group then slit her throat before all four men 'sexually abused her', the villager said.

Her body was then dumped in the Amazon before the men fled. Villagers provided police with their details and identities, he added.

It comes after it emerged that a man  arrested over the murder has admitted to slitting her throat and throwing her bullet-riddled body into a river, police say.

Da Silva made his confession after being held following an anonymous tip-off, police chief Jose Barradas revealed.

The suspect was found hiding in bushes with a phone and a GPS tracker after the 43-year-old former headmistress was murdered.

His confession comes as it emerged the killers alerted authorities to their crime after unwittingly triggering a distress signal on her equipment. Investigators had first thought the emergency alert which pinpointed Emma Kelty's exact location and triggered a search operation by Brazil's Navy had been sent by the victim herself.

But in fact the 'SOS' button was pressed by one of her killers who was trying to work out how to use the device they had stolen, an hour and a half after her death.

Police have now recovered the GPS device, as well as a mobile phone and a memory card.

The GPS signal sent at 10pm last Wednesday night led investigators to the riverside village of Lauro Sodre, 150 miles west of Manaus, and a manhunt which has brought about the arrest of three men accused of her murder. One of the suspects, Artur Gomes da Silva, nicknamed Beira, was due to be flown from Coari to Amazonas state capital Manaus today and remanded in prison ahead of trial.

Mr Barradas, insisting Miss Kelty had not been decapitated as was initially reported, said: 'It was an easy arrest. He confessed that after the British tourist's shooting, he and another suspect slit her throat and then threw her body into the river.'

Yesterday Barradas said he doubted anyone would have discovered what happened to Ms Kelty if the 'stupid' gangsters hadn't set off her emergency locator by mistake.

He said: 'They didn't know how it worked, so were messing around with it and pushing buttons.

'One of them must have pushed the button which transmitted an alert that she was in trouble. In turn the company that received it alerted the Navy, along with the exact location of where the button was pushed.

'Without that, it would have been very difficult to know where in this vast area of jungle she had gone missing.

'It would have probably remained an unsolved mystery and her killers never brought to justice. 

Banks have agreed to carry out immigration  checks on bank accounts to root out illegal immigrants.

Building societies will also look through 70 million current accounts from January to identity people who are living in Britain illegally.

The Home Office expects to identify 6,000 visa overstayers, failed asylum seekers and foreign national offenders facing deportation in the first year of the checks, which are to be carried out quarterly. The accounts of those identified will be shut down or frozen.

Officials say freezing accounts that hold significant sums ‘will create a powerful incentive [for those involved] to agree to voluntary departure’ so they can secure their money once they have left the country.

The Home Office said it had announced the plans in 2016.

But immigration welfare campaigners warned that the Home Office’s record meant it could not be trusted to implement the system properly. Scores of EU nationals were last month wrong sent deportation letters telling them to go home.

Banks have been told to adopt a default position of telling customers to take up the matter with the Home Office if a mistake has been made, even if the person has proof they are lawfully present in Britain, according to the guardian. 

The Immigration Act 2014 forces bank managers to check that customers are not illegal immigrants before allowing them to open accounts.

But the paper claims that no measure has previously required checks on the scale of every current account in Britain.  It says the new legislation requires the banks to check the identity of every current account holder against a Home Office supplied database held by an anti-fraud organisation, Cifas.

It includes details of those whom the Home Office regard as liable for removal or deportation because they are overstayers, failed asylum seekers or those who have absconded from immigration detention.

Safeguards are included to prevent the closure of a bank account which would leave the account holder without the subsistence means to live. Account closure can also be delayed to recover debts or deal with complex joint accounts, the paper reports.

An official Home Office impact assessment acknowledged ‘the proposed measures may have the potential to impact on the appetite of firms to offer banking services to legal migrants who do not have permanent leave to remain in the UK’ and promises to monitor the situation. Officials add that the banking laws ban discrimination against legally resident customers, the paper added.

A Home Office spokesman said: ‘As approved by Parliament in December 2016, from January banks and building societies will be required to carry out regular checks on the immigration status of all current account holders against the details of known illegal migrants to establish whether their customers are known to be in the UK unlawfully. This is part of our ongoing work to tackle illegal migration. People who are here legally will be unaffected.

North Korea is planning to test a hydrogen bomb in the Pacific Ocean after Donald trump vowed to 'totally destroy' Kim Jong-un's rogue state. 

North Korea's top diplomat said the country planned to test the bomb to fulfill Kim Jong Un's vow to take the 'highest-level of hard-line countermeasure in history' against the US.

The threat comes after US President Donald Trump said he would 'totally destroy' North Korea. At his UN address on Tuesday, president trump warned the North Korean leader that the United States, if threatened, would destroy the country of 26 million people.

Kim Jong-un confirmed his nuclear program was on the 'correct path' this week.

'His remarks... have convinced me, rather than frightening or stopping me, that the path I chose is correct and that it is the one I have to follow to the last,' Kim Jong-un said in a statement.  He called Mr Trump 'mentally deranged' and said the US President's comments were 'the most ferocious declaration of war in history'.

'I will surely and definitely tame the mentally deranged US dotard with fire,' Kim said in the rare direct statement, referring to Trump. 

'He has made unprecedented rude nonsense one has never heard from any of his predecessors. 

'A frightened dog barks louder.' 

The letter, issued in the leader's own name, was unusual for North Korea.  'I'd like to advise Trump to exercise prudence in selecting words and to be considerate of whom he speaks to when making a speech in front of the world,' the statement said. 

'After taking office, Trump has rendered the world restless through threats and blackmail against all countries in the world. 

'He is unfit to hold the prerogative of supreme command of a country, and he is surely a rogue and a gangster fond of playing with fire, rather than a politician.'  

He offered more vitriol for Trump, saying he was 'unfit to hold the prerogative of supreme command of a country, and he would 'pay dearly for his speech calling for totally destroying North Korea. 'Whatever Trump might have expected, he will face results beyond his expectation,' Kim said. 

Foreign Minister Ri Yong Ho said it 'could be the most powerful detonation of an H-bomb in the Pacific', according to South Korea's Yonhap news agency. 

Ri reportedly added: 'We have no idea about what actions could be taken as it will be ordered by leader Kim Jong Un'. 

If North Korea launches the test, it will be considered a major provocation by Washington and its allies.  President Trump signed an executive order on Thursday designed to choke North Korea's economy. 

The president said the new order would cut off sources of revenue that funded North Korea's efforts to develop what he called 'the deadliest weapons known to humankind'. 

The order was designed to dissuade Pyongyang from pursuing its nuclear missile program. 

Pyongyang is the capital city of North Korea.

The ex-girlfriend of an Irish pop star has been arrested at her $1.2m (£900,000) London apartment and charged with murdering her French nanny before burning her body in the back yard.

Sabrina Quider, 34, had hired Sophie Lionnet, 21, to look after her children - including a son she had with ex-boyfriend Mark Walton, who founded Irish boyband Boyzone - allegedly paying the live-in nanny just $63 a month.

But on Wednesday, police discovered Lionnet's badly burned body in Quider's garden - after they were alerted to the grisly scene by an eight-year-old boy. Local parents had noted 'foul-smelling smoke' emanating from Quider's home, in the affluend South London suburb of Southfields, as they took their children home from school on Wednesday.

But it was one curious boy who raised the alarm after he scaled the apartment's back yard gate and saw a huge bonfire with a man throwing what he thought were 'sticks' on the flames. 

Officers arrived at 6.30pm and discovered a body that was so badly burned they could not establish her age or even gender. 

However, the victim was identified by local residents as Sophie Lionnet, 21, a nanny from Troyes, a town in north-eastern France. 

Quider was arrested at the scene along with Ouissem Medouni, 40. Both have now been charged with murder.

Lionnet, who moved to the UK to learn English, is thought to have been living with Quider at her flat for 14 months caring for her three-year-old daughter, and the six-year-old son she had with Walton. Locals said that Lionnet had to work long hours to care for the two children, while  Quider, who claims to work as a stylist, make-up artist, fashion designer and songwriter, had been enjoying a busy social life.

On social media, the French-Algerian mother posed for glamorous pictures on nights out at various restaurants.

And although she 'had a lot of money,' neighbors said, Quider paid her nanny just £50 ($68) a month. One friend of the victim said: 'She came here to learn English, but found it very difficult here.

'Sabrina liked her social life and liked going out with her friends. There always seemed to be plenty of money. 

'She has had Sophie, who is from a poor French family, living in her little home for 14 months.

'Sophie had been unhappy for a long time - so unhappy she left to stay with one of her few friends for two nights last month.

'She had finally decided to go home though, and had just asked her mum to send her £40 ($54) so she could afford the fare. 'She was supposed to have gone back on Monday. She never arrived. Sabrina was always a real party girl, out smiling with friends. She was very different with Sophie at home.'

The friend added: 'The father of [Quider's] son left some time ago and she has a new boyfriend, who is also French Algerian. It was him who introduced Sabrina to Sophie. Neighbors were horrified. One woman, who did not want to be named, said: 'I was walking past on the way home from school and we could see flames through the fence posts.

'My young son called out, "If you are having a barbecue, are we allowed to come?". 

'I told him, "no that’s not a barbecue, that’s a bad smell". I thought they may be burning leaves.
