Concerned is a webcomic that parodies the video game "Half-Life 2". It was created by Christopher C. Livingston and ran from May 1, 2005, to November 6, 2006. The comic follows the story of a character named Gordon Frohman, who is an unlucky and clumsy person trying to survive in the chaotic world of "Half-Life 2". Background. The webcomic is set in the same universe as "Half-Life 2", a first-person shooter game developed by Valve Corporation. However, instead of focusing on the serious and intense storyline of the game, Concerned uses humor to explore the world. The comic is made by taking screenshots within the game and adding funny dialogue and situations. Plot. The main character, Gordon Frohman, is different from the game’s hero, Gordon Freeman. While Freeman is a skilled scientist and fighter, Frohman is incompetent and often makes bad decisions. He often finds himself in absurd and dangerous situations, mostly because of his own mistakes. Throughout the comic, Frohman tries to join the Resistance (the group fighting against the alien forces known as the Combine), but he usually ends up making things worse. Despite his many failures, Frohman remains optimistic and cheerful, which adds to the comic’s humor. Style and Humor. Concerned is known for its clever use of the "Half-Life 2" game world and its humorous take on the serious events of the game. The comic often pokes fun at video game logic, like why NPCs (non-playable characters) behave in certain ways or why some game environments don’t make sense in real life. Popularity and Impact. Concerned became quite popular among fans of "Half-Life 2" and the gaming community. Many readers appreciated the comic for its witty humor and the way it creatively used the game’s assets. The comic’s entire run consists of 205 episodes, and it was concluded with a final strip in November 2006. Even though it has been years since the comic ended, Concerned is still remembered by many gamers as a classic parody of the "Half-Life" series. Legacy. Christopher C. Livingston, the creator of Concerned

Home. Scientists saw this frog in a forest on a mountain 1225 meters above sea level. This is a cloud forest, where between 2000 and 4000 mm of rain or other weather falls every year, and the temperature is between 18 and 24°C. It lives in the same places as "Hyloxalus bocagei", "Allobates kingsburyi", and "Hyloxalus pulchellus". Scientists saw this frog in a protected park: Parque Nacional Rio Negro Sopladora. Young. Scientists are not sure how the frog makes its young, but they think the tadpoles swim in streams. Danger. Many of these frogs died in the 1980s from changes in the weather and the fungal disease chytridiomycosis. The forest where scientists first found the frog has been cut down, but there are enough other forests nearby that scientists thing some frogs might still be alive there: Parque Nacional Llanganates and Parque Nacional Sangay. If they are not all dead, then only 49 or fewer are alive today. Human beings keep changing that place by cutting down trees to make farms and get wood to build with.
