Sea Turtle Facebook Cover

Sea turtles are born on land buried in the sand with 1000 or so brothers and sisters. They hatch and begin the crawl instinctively toward the ocean, where predators are eagerly awaiting. Roughly the size of your palm, they can eventually grow to 15 feet long and live up to 100 years, but only if they survive the first day. Female turtles that survive will instinctively return to the beach where they were born to lay eggs, sometimes within feet of where they hatched many years earlier.

Sea turtles have been regular subject of tattoos since long before the current popularity of body ink. It was traditional for seamen in the Navy to get a sea turtle tattoo as an indicator that they had crossed the equator.

City skyline series: Pittsburgh Facebook Cover

The steel city, Pittsburgh Pennsylvania, is one of the great cities of the Industrial Revolution.

Today it's become a paradise for research and technology. With several high quality universities, and a variety of high tech employers, it's one of the few cities to successfully make the shift from blue to white collar.

It also has a rich history with American sports. The Steelers, Pirates, and Penguins were all founding members of their leagues and all don the black and gold. In total, the city has more than a dozen championships under its belt.

Rosa Parks Museum Bus

Today we continue our celebration of Black History Month.

Rosa Parks was a civil rights activist who became known as "The first lady of civil rights" after she was arrested for refusing to give up her seat on a bus in 1955. This act instigated the legendary Montgomery Bus Boycott, which helped end racial segregation on public transit across the country.

February 4, 1913 was Rosa Parks birthday. Celebrate her legacy with this Facebook cover on what would be her 105th birthday.

The photo below is from the Rosa Parks Museum in Dearborn Michigan. This bus represents the one where she took a stand by taking a seat and keeping it.

Six more weeks of winter… At the beach

Today is Groundhog Day. Unfortunately, Punxsutawney Phil has declared that we have six more weeks of winter here in Pennsylvania.

We decided to resist.

So today, you get two beautiful Facebook cover photos of tropical beaches. We hope that you will use them to help fight the winter blues with the ocean blues.

February is Black History Month

This year it's more important than ever to celebrate the achievements of African Americans. From the days of Abraham Lincoln to the Presidency of Barack Obama, the history of black people in America has been one of the great struggle and great triumph.

This month we are proud to offer this cover photo in celebration of black Americans and their contributions to the United States through blood, sweat and tears.
