Many people say ‘a dolphin’.
I am years away from getting an iPhone (they need 60GB and a GPS, for instance, and maybe SSB as well) but I do like this wallpaper pic from Steve Diet Goedde. Said to be the proper resolution.
What it is:
Horizon Ultra Sextant by Cassens & Plath
What it’s used for:
Navigating the high seas after all the other equipment breaks
Claiming to have the world’s best sextant doesn’t sound like much of a boast — it’s like bragging about a late-model chariot or a brand-new trebuchet. But real sailors still carry these 250-year-old gizmos. After all, your Loran receiver or WAAS GPS won’t get you home when there’s an electrical failure. Like any good sextant, this $1,500 model measures the angle between the horizon and the sun, moon, or other celestial body, which helps you determine your coordinates to within a mile. What makes the Horizon Ultra stand out are its finishing touches: a brass-alloy frame to resist warping, a white enamel coating to deflect heat, and a lighted micro meter for judging angles at dawn or dusk. Just think how nice it’ll look next to your titanium and carbon-fiber abacus.

How he got the shot.
Never Sea Land was recently down to technical difficulties — specifically, my hosting account was suspended due to the WordPress script wp-cron.php running amok and overloading the server. I’m working to fix this, and apologize for any futher interrupted service.
I know you’re there because I can hear you clicking. If you like what you see on Never Sea Land, please help support the site by adding a link to it on your blog or webpage. Thanks! David
Well, the shirt says ‘yachting’, and the boots do look waterproof. But still.
I’ve updated the permalinks on the site to make them more search-engine friendly. No more question marks in URLs. Hope this does not mess anyone up. — David

US ‘plans stealth shark spies’
Sharks with implants are planned to be released off Florida
Pentagon scientists are planning to turn sharks into “stealth spies” capable of tracking vessels undetected, a British magazine has reported.
They want to remotely control the sharks by implanting electrodes in their brains, The New Scientist says.

Dr. Evil: You know, I have one simple request. And that is to have sharks with frickin’ laser beams attached to their heads! Now evidently my cycloptic colleague informs me that that cannot be done. Ah, would you remind me what I pay you people for, honestly? Throw me a bone here! What do we have?
Number Two: Sea Bass.
Dr. Evil: [pause] Right.
Number Two: They’re mutated sea bass.
Dr. Evil: Are they ill tempered?
Number Two: Absolutely.
Dr. Evil: Oh well, that’s a start.
