Climate change is driving coral reefs beyond their tipping point, pushing these vulnerable systems harder than they can push back. And there's a domino effect - marine species like turtles risk losing their habitat and food sources, swinging life on the reef into imbalance.

For many, November ushers in a busy season. Connecting with nature can be a respite, and there are still plenty of flowering options to plant this month. For the text and printable versions of this infographic, visit UF/IFAS Gardening Solutions: buff.ly/MyjAZP4

We put many resources into surveying wildlife in the areas that we consider building our turbines to keep them safe. During our trip to St Croix we took footage of birds around our coast site and we were able to witness the amazing power of the unharnessed winds here as birds seem to hang in place

Todd Bowles said they were told it was an “erroneous whistle,” adding, “As soon as he hit him, he stripped him. I got no answers for that.” He said of Antoine Winfield Jr: “He had a hell of a day. I’m still pissed off over some of it…We gotta do something. We’ll discuss that with the league.”

Refs completely botched a call in the Saints v Buccaneers game. Defense recovered a fumble and ran out back for a TD. Only for the refs to say an inadvertent whistle, which no one heard, ended the play. These refs are terrible.

Concerned for the Bucs today, Saints at home for a (sort of) rivalry game with so many offensive players out and Baker looking out of sync last week could pull off an upset
