Three very different movements in very different lighting conditions, but generally struggling with fast moving clouds (black and white) resulting in ever changing settings even within he frame. I worked from home first thing this morning and then on my way to Rotherham called in at Darnall station, a place where I had never stopped for the Hope to Walsall tanks.
A variation on the normal route via the Dore West Curve and Dronfield today it ran via Sheffield station and Woodhouse Junction. 66615 is seen here climbing up from Nunnery and Woodburn Junctions on the 09:19 Hope (Earles Sidings) Fhh to Walsall Freight Terminal.
Next post meeting and needing some fresh air to battle a migraine, evidence that the Scots are doing everything they can to remain integrated into Europe. Scotrail - Saltaire liveried 68006 would be more at home on commuter services out of Edinburgh, but this week has been a regular performer on the 6C89 0945 Mountsorrel to Carlisle NY. The disappointment of this running a 664xx for the first few weeks now overcome and a useful diagram as the same loco appears to work the train all week.
Finally a VSTP numerically confusing 56087 and 56078 on the 0C51 12:00 Doncaster CHS to Whitemoor Yard LDC GBRF, only just about dropping on one of those elusive sunspots.

Two U.S. Air Force Rockwell B-1B "Lancers" assigned to 37th Expeditionary Bomb Squadron, deployed from Ellsworth Air Force Base, South Dakota, fly alongside two Koku Jieitai (Japan Air Self-Defense Force) F-15s over the vicinity of the East China Sea, Sept. 9, 2017. Following the end of the operation, one B-1B flew to Misawa Air Base, Japan, to be a static display for the Misawa Air Festival, while the other B-1B returned to Andersen AFB, Guam. The integration of our aerial platforms with our allied nations advance and strengthen the long-standing military-to-military relationships in the Indo-Asia-Pacific region.
..ecco il mio tentativo di mostrare la IFN intorno a questo celeberrimo duo di galassie nell'Orsa maggiore, M81 e M82, sono riuscito a sommare in due serate 48 frames 800 iso di cui 5 di 10 minuti ottenuti da Fontecorniale 550 mt. e i rimanenti 43 da 5 minuti dal cielo di casa a Lucrezia con Eos 40D su FS60 CB con riduttore di focale autoguida PHD Guiding dithering su AZEQ6 GT SW processing PixInsight 1.8 elaborazione PS CS5 Topaz labs (Detail3 Desnoise5)..
il risultato lo ritengo abbastanza soddisfacente anche se la IFN è percettibile solo dai cieli di montagna,mi accontento
For those hard to reach places, technicians and engineers use various styles of lifts and platforms to ensure they have the best angle of approach to work on the James Webb Space Telescope observatory.

Taken near the cliffside trail on the western side of the Middle Falls.
This photo complements the Part 19 image, and like it shows one of the park's predominant tree species, Arbor Vitae (Thuja occidentalis) hanging on for dear life on the edge of an outcrop of North Shore Volcanic Group basalt. This igneous extrusive rock is a small part of the immense outpouring of mafic lava that accompanied the development of the late-Mesoproterozoic Midcontinent Rift.
While usually not quite this visible, roots are amazing structures and one of the most geologically significant evolutionary adaptations in the whole history of life.
Before plants developed substantial roots systems, for both better anchoring and vastly more effective uptake of water, oxygen, and nutrients, the Earth was a world where the force of erosion more frequently predominated over the process of weathering.
But as rooted plants spread over larger and larger areas of our planet's surface, they created positive feedback loops ultimately involving the development of true soils, an increase of carbon sequestration in the ground, and an increase in the atmosphere's free-oxygen content. All these things had further dramatic effects on climate, rock formation, and the development of other living communities.
So when did roots first evolve? Most paleobotanists think that plants had developed them by the early Devonian period, approximately 400 Ma ago. That may seem an ancient date indeed, but keep in mind that the basalt to which this tree clings is, at 1,100 Ma, almost three times as old.

I wanted to share my photo & video diaries with you. As you all know, I recently signed with William Morris Endeavor to develop a reality series evolving around my work in the movement and in building my companies etc. I love sharing these video diaries from behind the scenes of day to day business. I believe that the real life day to day business in the cannabis world is far more interesting than most reality series I see on TV currently :) If you would like to see the REAL people behind the scenes of this movement to be a part of the series instead of using actors, then please support us in our vision. Please share everywhere. Some supportive comments would be great also. Let's make sure we have a lot of positive support out there in the mainstream and take this viral :) Marijuana is safer than alcohol!!!!

Special philosophic-briar-patch alert: If you're here for the geology or natural history only, stop reading after the first unitalicized paragraph to avoid a toxic dose of authorial introspection.
Taken in the same place as Part 7 of this set, but from a slightly different angle. And still looking southwestward at a small canyon of a Tornillo Creek tributary. Here at Carlota Tinaja we're about 6.9 road mi / 11.1 road km north of the intersection of Old Ore Road and Park Road 12.
To briefly review what I mentioned in the previous post, the artfully stratified stone belongs to the Upper Cretaceous Boquillas Formation. It's composed of alternating beds of limestone and various kinds of mudstone, each representing a separate pulse of sedimentation near a margin of the Western Interior Seaway. In those days, that great body of saltwater bisected North America from the Arctic all the way to what will always be known to the non-idiotic as the Gulf of Mexico.
And now I'm going to do something unforgiveable by speaking primarily to myself about my own reaction to this photo: it has always triggered in me particularly intense associations with the blessed day I stood in this spot and took it.
I remember feeling a flood of awe and curiosity and calmness that cannot possibly be related, in word or image, to any other person. I was standing in the midst of so much sheer geologic beauty, so much monumental stillness, so much rock carefully arranged by unconscious processes. No human-derived landscape has ever been half so uncontrived or perfect.
There is that experience of four-dimensional immersion in the real that only deserts offer. In that stark and arid world there is the overwhelming impression that the only way to avoid delusion is to sense the legendary nature of everything.
At least that's what this kind of place, and this kind of picture, do for me. But as noted before, it's a lesson that can't be imprinted on others. Still, in the heart of this old agnostic Gnostic the memory of having been there, at Carlota Tinaja, says something like this:
Rejoice evermore.
Pray without ceasing.
In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
Quench not the Spirit.
Lest I get slapped with a plagiarism suit from the Heavenly Choir, let me note that this is 1 Thessalonians 5:16-19, straight up. I was raised on the King James Version, so there you have it, in good Jacobean prose.

Portrait of YEAC member Akeli Stampp and his father Renford Stampp 71 looking out for their goats. Akeli’s father has been a farmer and fisherman and that’s how they make out their livelihood in Riverton Meadows a very poor inner city community. “I believe that the YEAC and programs like it are very very good program… programs for youth development. Take a community like Riverton for example… don’t think there is anything else for the youths to be involved in. There is no sports club. There is no rights or any kind of youths organization. So from that I was able to appreciate the fact of being a part of something greater than myself. Something were I can invest my time in. And I know that an investment is also made in me whereas I´m gaining experiences, meeting new people, going to new places. All those kind of things. So yeah I believe more youths should be involved in the YEAC´S, specially those with a lot of free time”, he says.
CRS has been implementing the Youth Emergency Action Committees program for 6 years in Jamaica, Granada and St. Lucia. This is a USAID / OFDA Funded program that has the goal to strengthen youth for an effective emergency response and disaster risk reduction integrating in all its activities the climate change lens. CRS works with three partners St. Patricks Rangers, Caritas Grenada, And Caritas Antilles in St. Lucia that have created 17 YEACS with around 200 members. The project works with at risk youths between the ages of 16 and 26 in vulnerable communities. They are not just learning about emergency response or disaster risk reductions but are as well becoming leaders and change makers in their communities.
This photo from Northrop Grumman's clean room in Redondo Beach, California shows the process if integrating the sunshield and the telescope part of the James Webb Space Telescope Observatory. The telescope is seen hanging from a crane, in the process of being moved over the sunshield.
