YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE – ELVIS PRESLEY
Sometimes in life we come full circle
I see a footprint of my beginning
and here I am back at the start
I see the people who tried to stop me winning
but I rise above them; and leave them far behind
I draw a line in shifting, whispering grains of sand
and something deep inside me drives me on
no looking back; I am complete; I understand
sometimes in life we cannot win them over
it's not our job; it's for a greater Hand
and He will guide me on my journey
bring me safely to the shore
where angels sing; rejoice and hold me
and I will not be frightened any more
He sees in us the pain; the human burden
He sees the weight that life and people bring
He knows how much; He knows and He is certain
He will not give us more than we can take
so that in our hearts and souls we'll always sing
and when at last our cup is brimming over
He lays his Hand upon our heads and soothes our brow
and we feel the greatest love that ever found us
and we are comforted and lighter; it is a miracle somehow
and once more we are peaceful
finding joy in simple things
as darkness; shadows and all our plights
are left behind and taken care of;
whisked away on angel's wings
and soon the lines of strain are smoothed; not furrowed
as clouds reveal the stars of wonder and ethereal light
and we begin to live at last the ever after; forget tomorrow
this moment we exist; and in this moment
I am complete; I am content right here, right now.

"Birding is a three-dimensional pastime. It’s superior to, say, mushrooming, where the quarry is never higher than your shoelaces. And, of course, misidentifying a bird won’t kill you. Now, while all the mushroomers get busy writing angry op-eds, let me explain.
Birds fly. The sky’s the limit. One can’t go birding without looking up. The entire forest is stratified, from the treetop warblers to the ground foraging turkeys. And in the middle: thrushes.
Members of the thrush family spend much of their time on or near the ground. They forage on foot.
Males on territory might sing from a treetop, but they are often content to croon from a lower branch in the canopy. Birders sometimes complain about “warbler neck,” the pain that comes from looking high into the trees. Nobody complains about thrush neck.
Robins and bluebirds are thrushes. They’re easy to tell apart. The rest? Not so much. All the medium-sized thrushes are various shades of brown, with whitish, spotted breasts. So when walking in the woods, identification becomes easier if you start with a default bird: everything is a hermit thrush, unless it isn’t.
The hermit thrush is the most common and widespread thrush in Maine. It is comfortable in the understory of both hardwood and softwood trees. It forages through the leaf litter on the ground. When surprised, it may fly to a nearby branch where it can look you over and assess the threat, perhaps raising its tail or wiggling its wings. In other words, it’s easy. Its reddish tail contrasts with its brown body, confirming the identification at a glance. The whitish breast is lightly spotted.
Hermit thrushes don’t go far in winter. Most stay in the states. Some are even found on Christmas bird counts in Maine. They are the earliest of the brown thrushes to return, and start singing in late April.
Like their cousins, the song is an ethereal, flute-like melody, rising and falling. "

Sea lions are pinnipeds characterized by external ear flaps, long foreflippers, the ability to walk on all fours, short and thick hair, and a big chest and belly. Together with the fur seals, they make up the family Otariidae, eared seals. The sea lions have six extant and one extinct species (the Japanese sea lion) in five genera. Their range extends from the subarctic to tropical waters of the global ocean in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, with the notable exception of the northern Atlantic Ocean.
Sea lions have an average lifespan of 20–30 years. A male California sea lion weighs on average about 300 kg (660 lb) and is about 2.4 m (8 ft) long, while the female sea lion weighs 100 kg (220 lb) and is 1.8 m (6 ft) long. The largest sea lions are Steller's sea lions, which can weigh 1,000 kg (2,200 lb) and grow to a length of 3.0 m (10 ft). Sea lions consume large quantities of food at a time and are known to eat about 5–8% of their body weight (about 6.8–15.9 kg (15–35 lb)) at a single feeding. Sea lions can move around 16 knots (30 km/h; 18 mph) in water and at their fastest they can reach a speed of about 30 knots (56 km/h; 35 mph). Three species, the Australian sea lion, the Galápagos sea lion and the New Zealand sea lion, are listed as endangered

Soms gaat alles niet zoals je verwacht dat gaat. De 1824 zou vandaag deze trein gaan ophalen in Zutphen vanaf Amersfoort, alleen door een technisch probleem strandde deze loc bij Stroe. De 1740 werd opgetrommeld als reddende engel, maar niet van de 1824, maar als vervanger van deze loc. Zo kwam het dat ik 2 uur te vroeg langs het spoor stond en weer huiswaarts kon gaan. De dienstregeling was met +120 opgeschoven. Dat gaf me wel de gelegenheid om een andere plek te zoeken.
De loc zou dus eerst los van Amersfoort naar Zutphen gaan, daar de trein aanhaken, naar Deventer Goederenemplacement rijden, omlopen en weer terug naar Zutphen en dan verder naar Roosendaal. De logica ontgaat mij daarvan, maar het zal vast iets met omlopen in Zutphen te maken hebben, dat dat daar niet kan.
Enfin, voor mij alleen maar beter. Ik had bedacht in de boog bij Joppe te gaan staan, daar zou de zon rond 15 uur mooi staan. Helaas had ik mij dus een uur vergist, want de passage was 14u en de zon was verdwenen achter de wolken. Ook is er bij de overweg van de Flierderweg geen eer meer te behalen aan het maken van een mooie foto omdat er opeens allemaal rare borden, electrakasten en hekken geplaatst zijn. Dat was hier nog niet het geval.
Gelukkig was ik met de auto en had ik bij hoge uitzondering een trap bij me zodat ik langs de beek (Fliert) richting het spoor kon lopen en met de trap iets hoger kon staan. Wel jammer van de vieze nette schoenen die ik aan had (faal), maar je moet er wat voor over hebben. Door gebrek aan een zonnetje een vrij fletse foto helaas en wellicht ook niet helemaal scherp, maar ik ben er content mee.
Hier rijdt de trein bij Joppe richting Zutphen met meerdere geluidssignalen.
Lytham Hall is an 18th-century Georgian country house in Lytham, Lancashire, 1 mile from the centre of the town, in 78 acres of wooded parkland. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building, the only one in the Borough of Fylde. Wikipedia
With her head laid on her back, this female Canada Goose sat quite contently and watched what I was doing. I didn't get close as to disturb her, but as I got up to leave she lifted her head ever so slightly. I left some corn close by for her and went on my way.
She has travelled the nicest of sims and conquered the roughest of seas in SL with me. She understands me in ways a lot of people sadly can't and I am the same to her. Simpatico.
She is a best friend who I love beyond what words could never hope to describe. I love her very much, but always a friend she shall be and we like it like that.
This is one of the 124 of 148 photos that Flickr's server "ate" last year...it is a memory without text...but at least I have the image to rekindle the spirit, remember the day and smile at her time with me as I always do.
This was also taken at Wintermoon. It was my favourite sim and like this photo, now just a memory. It is gone.
Be of peace always my friend. Know you are loved.

L'Ecotron fait partie du Centre de recherche de terrain , situé dans le parc national de la Haute Campine. L' Ecotron de l'Université d'Hasselt est une infrastructure de recherche à grande échelle qui permet de réaliser des expériences climatiques contrôlées de pointe pour étudier les effets du climat et du changement climatique sur le fonctionnement des écosystèmes. Il fournit un aperçu de l'impact du climat sur un écosystème donné qui ne peut être obtenu par des expériences de terrain (trop complexes) ni par des expériences contrôlées en laboratoire (trop réductrices).
L'écotron de l'Université d'Hasselt se compose de 12 unités fermées éclairées par le soleil, où les conditions environnementales peuvent être contrôlées séparément. Chaque unité abrite un lysimètre avec une colonne de sol-canopée de 3,14 m 2 et de 1,5 m de profondeur, où les processus écosystémiques peuvent être surveillés en temps réel.
Les variables suivantes peuvent être contrôlées : la température de l’air, l’humidité relative de l’air, la concentration en CO2 de l’air , les précipitations, la tension de l’eau du sol et la température du sol.
Les variables suivantes sont surveillées toutes les 1 à 30 min : concentrations de CH 4 et de N 2 O dans l'air, pression atmosphérique, rayonnement net, rayonnement photosynthétiquement actif, conductivité électrique du sol, teneur en eau du sol, poids du sol et poids du lixiviat du sol.
Tous les paramètres du sol sont mesurés à 15 positions : 5 profondeurs (10, 20, 35, 60, 140 cm) et à 3 positions spatiales par profondeur.
De plus, des ventouses échantillonnent l’eau du sol aux mêmes 15 positions par unité.
À partir de ces variables, les échanges nets de l’écosystème, l’évapotranspiration ainsi que les émissions de CH4 ou de N2O peuvent être calculés avec une résolution et une fréquence élevées.
The Ecotron is part of the Field Research Centre , located in the Hoge Kempen National Park. The Ecotron of Hasselt University is a large-scale research infrastructure that enables state-of-the-art controlled climate experiments to study the effects of climate and climate change on ecosystem functioning. It provides insight into the impact of climate on a given ecosystem that cannot be obtained through field experiments (too complex) or controlled laboratory experiments (too reductive).
The Ecotron of Hasselt University consists of 12 closed, sunlit units, where environmental conditions can be controlled separately. Each unit houses a lysimeter with a 3.14 m2 and 1.5 m deep soil-canopy column, where ecosystem processes can be monitored in real time.
The following variables can be monitored: air temperature, air relative humidity, air CO2 concentration, precipitation, soil water tension and soil temperature.
The following variables are monitored every 1 to 30 min: CH4 and N2O concentrations in air, atmospheric pressure, net radiation, photosynthetically active radiation, soil electrical conductivity, soil water content, soil weight and soil leachate weight.
All soil parameters are measured at 15 positions: 5 depths (10, 20, 35, 60, 140 cm) and at 3 spatial positions per depth.
In addition, suction cups sample soil water at the same 15 positions per unit.
From these variables, net ecosystem exchanges, evapotranspiration, and CH4 or N2O emissions can be calculated with high resolution and frequency.
