While checking out interesting online entries on Tiger census, stumbled upon this blog - save-tiger.blogspot.com. Here is what one of the slogans read on the blog:
No Tigers = No Forests = No clean Air & Water = No You & Me = No Blogging = That sucks man!
For a moment, I was drawing a typical forest food chain in my mind as I had read in my schoolbooks. Ah, no prizes for guessing now....for why a question on food chain was set obligatorily in science exam papers.
Less tigers means > loss of vegetation cover due to rise in the number of herbivores > affecting water cycle (lesser transpiration volume) > lesser rain, more harmful particulate matter in air > threat to human beings > and yes, no human being, no words of wisdom online.
Sometimes a thought of losing such wonderful creatures sends a chill down the spine. The feeling is more and more frequent now. Remembering a Tiger cub in a spot hosted by a mobile carrier. Time to act!

Google users - you all must have noticed the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic themed backdrop of the home page. The image has the torch in place of letter "l" and a small Olympic logo on the left hand side.
As usual, Google marks the games and sports extravaganza by changing its doodle to fit the taste of times. Google had marked Beijing 2008 showing five mascots carrying an Olympic flag.
Original doodler Dennis Hwang says, "I have several favorites. Usually, artists' birthdays are the ones I spend the most effort on, like Monet's birthday."
Looking for more interesting logos post March 2010, as of now Google holiday logos can be seen indexed till March only.
Bon Googling - Google-Doodle-Do!
