	The Archive of Lost Dreams The Visual: It describes an underwater archive of messages in bottles. The Meaning: The bottles contain messages of dreams for future generations. The Hope: The statue is placed with the purpose of helping draw visitors away from the healthy parts of the reef. The Location: The Archive of Lost Dreams was placed 8 meters deep at Manchones Reef, close to Isla Mujeres. Behind the Scenes: The collection of bottled messages were provided by various communities who wrote about today’s values and their dreams for the future generations.
	The Gardener of Hope The Visual: Here a young Mexican girl lies in a garden surrounded by pots which will be grown with live coral. The Meaning: The young girl in the sculpture represents a model for hopeful future generations. The Hope: The base of the Gardener of Hope was built to attract various marine creatures. The coral in the pots is also expected to grow. The Location: The Gardener of Hope was placed 4 meters deep at Punta Nizuc near the coast of Cancun. Behind the Scenes: The pots here are filled with live coral cuttings that were saved from areas of the local reef system.
	Man on Fire The Visual: Man on Fire describes a lone male figure covered in live fire coral to resemble fire. The Meaning: The sculpture symbolizes the unawareness of the “fire” our generation has started with the over use of limited natural resources. The Hope: Man on Fire has 75 holes planted with small live cuttings of fire coral which are expected to grow like fire. The Location: Man on Fire was installed 8 meters deep at the Manchones Reef nearby to Isla Mujeres. Behind the Scenes: The sculpture was cast from a local Mexican fisherman and it weighs over 1 ton.
	The Silent Evolution The Visual: Here more than 400 sculptures depict the timeline of human nature. The Meaning: It is a documentation of how society and people have changed over time. It is also to remind us of how we are connected to nature. The Hope: The installation is designed for forming a complex reef structure that marine life will claim as its own and inhabit. The Location: The Silent Evolution will be installed 8 meters deep behind the Manchones Reef. Behind the Scenes: The total installation will expand over 150 square meters and will weigh over 120 tons.

As of Monday, Amy Carrickhoff’s video “Spoiled deer getting her bottle” was viewed more than 792,000 times and shared 9,600 times. In this heartwarming video, Carrickhoff stands outside her house in Oakridge, North Carolina, ______ for a deer she has named “Little Girl.” The deer comes out of the ______ and jumps on her. It hurries up the driveway and ______ Carrickhoff into the house, where it then sucks down a baby bottle of goat’s milk. When the ______ is gone, Carrickhoff wipes its mouth with a tissue.

While some animal lovers were touched by the obvious ______ Carrickhoff had with the deer, others felt she wasn’t doing the deer any ______. They said she was allowing the deer to get too ______ around humans and it could have been hit by a car, been shot by a hunter, or hurt someone. “You just gave this animal a death ______ — you also have put all your neighbors and their children at ______ of being attacked when this deer matures, and when it doesn’t get ______, it attacks someone,” one reader wrote.

Carrickhoff’s comment was that if she had known the video would get so many ______ she would have changed out of her gym clothes. As for the deer, ______, the update isn’t a happy one.

Little Girl continued coming back for bottles until around January 2011, when it moved onto ______ deer food, Carrickhoff said. “She walked off into the woods and we never saw her again,” she said. “We ______ those woods … we never found anything.”

Looking back, Carrickhoff said getting to know the deer was a special ______ that she wouldn’t regret.

Friends had brought Little Girl to Carrickhoff’s home because the woods in their backyard were protected, and the deer would be ______ from hunters. School children loved visiting the gentle creature, who would ______ them with its soft tongue and didn’t mind being ______.

Carrickhoff is confident that she didn’t over-domesticate (过度驯养) the animal. Even when Little Girl was bottle-fed, she lived in the woods and did “deer things”, Carrickhoff’s daughter said. The deer gave birth to a ______ of its own the following June, and toward the end, it wouldn’t come when it was called. It was becoming ______ again.

She and her husband got so attached to Little Girl that they don’t ever want to take care of another animal. “I just watch the videos and she kind of lives on,” she said.

DNA left at a crime scene could be used in the future to build up a picture of an offender’s face, it was revealed tonight.

A first step towards genetic mugshots has been taken by researchers in the US who link specific DNA markers with face shape. To identify the genes, they focused on known mutations(突变) that cause changes of the face and head. Normal versions of these genes were found to influence individual features. For instance, one gene affected the lips, another the shape and configuration of bones around the eyes, and a third the appearance of the mid-face and skull. In total, 20 genes had “significant effects” on facial appearance.

Lead scientist Professor Mark Shriver, from Pennsylvania State University, said: “We use DNA to match to an individual or identify an individual, but you can get so much more from DNA. Currently we can’t go from DNA to a face, or from a face to DNA, but it should be possible.” The implications are far reaching, raising the possibility of creating a data bank of facial types based on genetic markers. DNA from a crime scene could then be used to produce a rough image of the face of an offender or victim. Such genetic mugshots may be more reliable than computer-generated “e-fits” based on witnesses’ recollections. Other uses of the technique might include proving the identity of fathers in paternity cases, or visualising our remote ancestors from fossil DNA.

The scientists wrote in the online journal Public Library of Science Genetics: “Such predictive modelling could be forensically useful; for example, DNA left at crime scenes could be tested and faces predicted in order to help to narrow the pool of potential suspects. Further, our methods could be used to predict the facial features of descendants, deceased ancestors, and even extinct human species. In addition, these methods could prove to be useful diagnostic tools.” The team developed a model which first established a range of physical face shapes from people of mixed West African and European ancestry from the US, Brazil and Cape Verde. Measurements were taken of thousands of point co-ordinates on grids placed over 3D images of the faces.

Statistical methods were then used to determine the relationship between facial differences and the effects of gender, ethnic ancestry and individual gene variants.
