These cycle maps are available from TfL for free. They're pretty good.

New Map #3, collage, 2014, 5" x 7"

The USGS GNIS placename database was used to make this map. Place names that end in "Hollow" are shown with an orange got, while those ending in "Gulch" get a blue dot.

 

Clearly, "Gulch" is common in the West and rare in the East. "Hollow", on the other hand, is very common in the Appalachians, Ozarks, Texas, and elsewhere in the East, but is also found in a few western regions—notably Utah and north-central Oregon.

 

Source data, USGS GNIS placename database and ESRI's state boundary data. Software, ESRI ArcGIS.

I haven't get many map cards so I like this very much and it's special. (:

Bubonic plague, otherwise known as the ‘Black Death’, has followed a cyclical course throughout world history. During the 19th century sporadic outbreaks of plague occurred in various parts of Australia, but the epidemic of 1900-1909 which claimed 219 lives in Queensland alone, was by far the most serious in Australian history. Plague is caused by a bacillus found in fleas which normally feed on rats. Poor sanitation, sub-standard housing and high population densities are contributory factors in the spread of plague among humans, and these were chronic problems facing many Queensland ports in 1900 when plague first appeared.

 

The Queensland Government responded to the crisis by appointing Dr Nathaniel Burnett (Bertie) Ham as the State’s first Commissioner of Public Health, with his recommendations enforced by health officers stationed in Queensland’s major coastal centres. Bounties were paid for dead rats and professional rat-catchers were employed by municipal authorities. Ham largely conducted his campaign through tight quarantine controls, fumigation and the destruction of infected materials, but the battle against plague was finally won through major sanitary improvements and the demolition of sub-standard buildings. Constant vigilance was still required, as a lapse in protective measures led to yet another outbreak of bubonic plague in 1921-1922. On the latter occasion 63 people lost their lives in Queensland.

This is a picture taken in my flat. This is where I call home now, but it also reminds me there's so much more to explore :)
