The Simple Tao (Simple Taoism)
Wait, this isn't a site about Philodendron xanadu or Cyanobacteria? You are correct indeed, friend. The Blueboard.com domain was previously owned by a super-smart and gifted scientist, who wrote many articles and research papers on plant and insect life, getting published by major universities as well as esteemed sites like National Geographic and Wikipedia. Unfortunately, we no longer offer content on those topics, but hope you might stay for awhile in case the new Blueboard.com piques your professional interests. Okay fine, what exactly does the "new" Blueboard offer? Blueboard is a recognition and rewards platform HQed in San Diego, CA. We help awesome companies like Google, GoPro, Iron Mountain and Otis Elevators say "thank you" to their top employees with something more meaningful than cash or gift card incentives, with a personalized experiential reward. What do you mean, an "experience"? Let me go out on a limb and assume you're a nature buff. Wow, okay now I'm listening.

TEN UNTRANSLATABLE WORDS - spicyshimmy - Mass Effect
FORELSKET The euphoria you experience when you’re first falling in love. Like getting tag-teamed by a one-two shot—cryo round first, incendiary second—that was walking into the same room as Commander Shepard. The experience blew cold and then hot, but after Rahna… Kaidan was used to it, as much as anybody could be. It always moved on to something else, because it wasn’t enough just to change your body temperature, it needed to pierce the skin, too. Hammerhead rounds, so you had to brace yourself for high impact; proton rounds, taking down your defenses. Only Shepard out of armor, leather jacket and a scar on his forehead, a face you’d expect with eyes and a mouth that you wouldn’t—that was the part that made it so good. ‘I should go,’ he said, after every conversation. At the end of a long day, Kaidan bunked down and put his bare elbows on his thighs. ‘Everything all right, LT?’ ‘Yeah,’ Kaidan replied. ‘You know,’ Shepard said, ‘I always liked you, Garrus. And maybe before that, even.

Wildlife Sanctuary Teaches Baby Sloths How to Potty
Potty training at the sloth orphanage from Amphibian Avenger on Vimeo. Sloths are perfectly designed for life in the trees, but even they need to come back down to earth every once in a while -- especially when nature calls. For a group of baby sloths at Costa Rica's Aviarios del Caribe wildlife sanctuary, however, learning to descend the trees to make their business doesn't always come easy. But thanks to the patience and dedication of the sanctuary's staff, soon the orphaned sloths will be able to make it all on their own.Because of the sloth's famously slow metabolism, they typically only need to climb down from the treetops to do their business about once a week -- a skill passed on from sloth mothers to their offspring. Clare, the sanctuary's 'chief sloth wrangler', offers some fascinating insight into part of a sloth's routine that you likely never thought to question. I am of course delighted that people have fallen for the sloths. Meet the sloths from Amphibian Avenger on Vimeo.
The 12 Ties that Bind Long-Term Relationships
That crazy thing we call love is perhaps one of the most studied and least understood areas in psychology. One reason is that many studies of romantic relationships are carried out not in real life, but in the lab. Making matters worse, many of these studies involve dating relationships between samples of convenience, consisting of undergraduate students. Though these students are certainly capable of close relationships, many of them haven’t matured enough to know themselves, much less what they want out of a romantic partner. What better way to find out about love than to survey the experts? Just as clearly, not everyone felt the same degree of intensity about their spouses. Earlier research by psychologist Arthur Aron, who collaborated in this study, suggested that the people who are most intensely in love are the ones who feel a strong romantic attraction, but who also enjoy engaging in “self-expanding” joint activities that are novel and challenging.

Saudade
Saudade (European Portuguese: [sɐwˈðaðɨ], Brazilian Portuguese: [sawˈdadi] or [sawˈdadʒi], Galician: [sawˈðaðe]; plural saudades)[1] is a Portuguese and Galician word that has no direct translation in English. It describes a deep emotional state of nostalgic or profound melancholic longing for an absent something or someone that one loves. Moreover, it often carries a repressed knowledge that the object of longing may never return.[2] A stronger form of saudade may be felt towards people and things whose whereabouts are unknown, such as a lost lover, or a family member who has gone missing. Saudade was once described as "the love that remains" after someone is gone. In Portuguese, "Tenho saudades tuas" (European Portuguese) or "Tenho saudades de você" (Brazilian Portuguese), translates as "I have saudade of you" meaning "I miss you", but carries a much stronger tone. In Brazil, the day of Saudade is officially celebrated on 30 January.[3][4] History[edit] Origins[edit] Definition[edit]
