Some of you have already completed our "show what you know by what you do" assignment. Some of you have not started it yet. Either way, this "assignment" does not need to end with the 20% grade in this course. This is something you can and should continue beyond this course. Remember that with knowledge comes the onus of action.
Here are two great sites that you can continue to watch for even more ideas.

I have 29 tickets to see Sharkwater at Park Lane Theatre tomorrow night at 7 pm.
Let me know if you are interested, and we will talk about this in class in some detail tomorrow.
Tuesday, March 6, 2007 7 pm at the Park Lane Cinema on Spring Garden Rd.
Rob Stewart will be in attendance leading a Q&A at the end of the film.
Sharkwater is a documentary film by award-winning wildlife photographer Rob Stewart. A young biologist, fascinated by sharks since he was a kid, Rob set out to make a documentary that would debunk the myths surrounding sharks as indiscriminate killers perpetuated by Hollywood movies like Jaws. In the process, he stumbled onto a trillion-dollar black market industry involving the illegal sale of shark fins. With beautiful underwater cinematography best seen on the big screen, Sharkwater brings attention to the heartbreaking plight of a 400 million year old species that survived five mass distinctions but may be wiped out in a few years by humankind.
Winner of the People's Choice Award, Atlantic International Film Festival AND MORE! For more information and to see the trailer visit: http://www.sharkwater.com
