Delicate Arch trail.
Length: 3 miles roundtrip
Difficulty: Moderate
Description: Delicate Arch is the most recognizable arch in Arches National Park, and perhaps anywhere in the world. It also happens to be located along one of the most dynamic hiking trails within Arches National Park. More than 480 feet above the parking lot and trailhead in the valley below, Delicate Arch is hidden in a bowl at the top of one of the park’s famous sandstone fins. Delicate Arch is freestanding, and magnificently alone in the natural sandstone bowl, standing out against the multitude of horizontal planes around it. The arch was once part of the upper section of the fin, until erosion took its toll upon the sandstone throughout the years, and now Delicate Arch is all that remains of that Entrada sandstone formation.
The Delicate Arch Trailhead is located on the Wolfe Ranch turnoff, which is 11.5 miles up the Arches Entrance Road. The right turn to Delicate Arch is advertised at the turnoff, and the trailhead is on the left side of the road, at the ranch. The trail is rugged and steep, especially near the end as it mounts the sloped side of the sandstone fin. Along the way, visitors will pass a pioneer homestead, Ute Indian petroglyphs, an overgrown streambed, throngs of juniper, a smaller arch, and the famous slickrock for which the Moab area is world-famous.
Delicate Arch Trailhead
The trail starts at a fairly large parking lot off the side of the road, passes the old Wolfe Homestead, and then crosses a bridge over Salt Wash.
Wolfe Ranch
This homestead was built by a disabled Civil War vet, John Wesley Wolfe, in 1888 and inhabited until 1910, when the aging owner moved back to Ohio.
Ute Petroglyphs
This panel of rock art is attributed to the Ute culture. In includes a number of bighorn sheep, horses and dogs.
Frame Arch
Frame Arch is next to invisible when compared with the splendor of Delicate Arch just around the corner; most hikers barely even recognize the arch on its own merits. However, Frame Arch is famous for being the perfect window through which to photograph Delicate Arch, and many people use it to frame their shots of its more photogenic sibling, as its name suggests.
Delicate Arch
Delicate Arch has graced many magazine covers, mantle pieces, coffee tables, stamps, license plates, and a variety of other media. It is an international attraction, and has drawn its fair share of abuse over the years, including (now illegal) climbing, and ignorant pyrotechnics.

After 4 years chasing, finally have this bird in my photo album!
Jerdon's baza (Aviceda jerdoni)
Jerdon's baza (Aviceda jerdoni) is a moderate sized brown hawk with a thin white-tipped black crest usually held erect. It is found in South-east Asia. It inhabits foothills in the terai and is rarer in evergreen forests and tea estates.
The common name and Latin binomial commemorate the surgeon-naturalist Thomas C. Jerdon.
Description
It is about 46 cm long. It is confusable with crested goshawk or the crested hawk-eagle in flight, but can be distinguished by the longer upright crest, very broad and rounded paddle-shaped wings and mostly plain and pale underparts. It has a white chin and a bold black mesial stripe.
Several subspecies are recognized within its large distribution range. These include:
A. j. jerdoni (Blyth, 1842) - Sikkum to Assam, Burma, Sumatra
A. j. ceylonensis (Legge, 1876) - South India and Sri Lanka
A. j. borneensis (Sharpe, 1893) - Borneo
A. j. magnirostris (Kaup, 1847) - Luzon, Mindanao
A. j. leucopias (Sharpe, 1888) - Romblon, Samar, Palawan
A. j. celebensis (Schlegel, 1873)
Habits
The bird is typically seen in pairs making aerial sallies; crest held erect. Occasionally, the birds may be seen in small family parties of 3 to 5 seen in flight near edge of forests. The birds indulge in 'soaring and undulating' display flights near the nest. Breeding season varies locally but the bird is known to breed almost the entire year with the exception of a few months around April and May. Food includes lizards, grasshoppers and other large insects. The stomach contents of a specimen collected in present-day Kurseong included agamid lizard, Japalura variegata, several longicorn beetles and mantises.

The Mecca Hills Wilderness is near the town of Indio, about an hour southeast of Palm Springs, California. The dramatic and colorful Mecca Hills were formed by the convergence of the North American Plate and the Pacific Plate along the San Andreas Fault. The powerful fault system there has pushed up and overturned layers of rock—some over 600 million years old—which provide important information to scientists about the impact of earthquakes on the Earth’s crust. And mineral deposits in the Mecca Hills result in hues of rose, pink, red, purple and green.
In addition to countless opportunities for cross-country exploration for adventurous hikers, two marked trails offer hikes to particularly scenic spots. Painted Canyon offers a moderate hike of up to five miles round trip through colorful rock formations. The entire canyon is scenic, so shorter hikes are also rewarding. A second six-mile roundtrip hike accesses Hidden Springs, an oasis of California fan palms that surprises visitors as they come upon it in the stark desert canyon.

Took a moderate amount of will-power to go out and grab these, fairly dismal shots, due to the absolute deluge we were getting here yesterday (Wednesday, 28th), all day. Seeing any traction at all on the Stocksbridge branch, other than the nightly workings from Aldwarke, 6J57 to Stocksbridge Works and the return, 6J58, warrants effort to see wha6t it is. This one was a bit of an unknown, a class 6, working number unknown as well coming south from York Thrall Europa straight here through Swinton and Rotherham Central and on tot Woodburn Junction on the GC line, thence up the remaining spur of the old (now defunct) electrified Woodhead line to the steel works at Stocksbridge. The return trip went via Sheffield where the set stood for almost 4 hours before making its way back via Barnsley & Church Fenton back to York. HAve to say it didn't actually look as if it was doing anything. Its designated as an MPV, Multi-Purpose Vehicle, with master & slave units, undertaking general maintenance work such as sandite, weedkiller and other cleaning purposes. The ensemble seen here are led by master unit DR98955 and is coming along the last stretch of the Stocksbridge line at Oughtibridge. It is seen passing the old Oughtibridge station in the top picture and as can be seen in all four pictures here, is completely surrounded by burgeoning vegetation making even moderate side-on shots particularly difficult. In addition, it was throwing it down with rain and the 'gloaming' light was such that the ISO speed was up between 2000 and 3200 to permit taking any pictures at all; in all the frames there has been sharpening and Luminance noise reduction applied in order to get anything reasonable at all. The working was, thankfully, ten minutes early here as it came smartly up to rising grade, the grade which caused so much hassle for the electrified lines when this place had 1500 tonne coal and other freight trains going up the grade at the rate of about 6 an hour, 24 hours a day, just about and 365 days a year... and this wasn't the difficult part of the line, that was to come.

CGI Conversations, developed with a variety of media partners, are panel discussions moderated by news anchors and taped to air on an international news network at a later date. During this Breakout Session, CGI America's 2013 broadcast partner Bloomberg TV will film two segments, both moderated by host Trish Regan.
I decided to attend some panels for the first time at the 2015 NY Comic Con and caught the Mr. Robot Panel at the Hammerstein Ballroom! All the main cast was there! Carly Chaikin, Rami Malek, Christian Slater, Portia Doubleday and Martin Wallström and series creator Sam Esmail!
A moderate 2.5 mile (one way) hike to the interiors of Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park along the Government Peak trail that starts off of M-107 (i.e., 107th Engineers Memorial Highway) is punctuated with several long n' narrow footbridges across swampy areas and some short n' wide bridges across creeks.
At about the 1.4 mile mark, the trail makes its way to the top of a gorge and for the next mile or so, lines alongside the Carp River. Several roaring rapids later, the Govt. Peak Trail leads to an unmarked, yet easily identifiable Trap Falls.
The trail in part was very slippery, washed out, had snow and fallen trees, but for the most part is shaded by hemlocks, pines & hardwoods and lined up with a plethora of wild flowers making it a very scenic and enjoyable hike.
Thanks be to dear friend, Eric Hackney for the directions.

On the history of women's studies at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna
1897
Conservative journalist A.F. Seligmann founded the art school for women and girls and taught there as a single teacher 16 students in the "Curs for head and act". 1898 expands the school: Tina Blau, a former teacher of the Munich artists association conducts 1.1.1898 a "Curs for landscape and still-life", which she held until 1915. Richard Kauffungen was nominated for sculpture, Ludwig Michalek led the "Curs for head and act" as well as an Radierkurs (etching course), Adolf Böhm the course for decorative and applied arts, Fabiani teaches ornamentation and style of teaching as well as "Modern home furnishings", Georg Klimt taught metalwork, Friedrich King wood cutting art and Hans Tichy from 1900 the drawing and painting from the living model. In all these teachers are moderate modern artists from the area of the Secession. The theoretical lectures are held in the company founded by Emil Zuckerkandl and Julius Tandler 1900 "Association of Austrian university lecturers Athenaeum", which had the task to be "an educational institution for members of the female sex". The first school year was completed with 64 students, the school is rapidly expanding, so that it forms 200-300 students annually within a few years. The steady growth is due to the restrictive attitude of the public schools of art (especially the academy) towards women, but also from the indiscriminate admission of which have been blamed all the private schools also on the part of women harshly, and just by women.
1904
The Academy of Fine Arts Vienna is one of the many requests for opening the Academy for students once again putting the old arguments against that women are rarely equipped with creative spirit in the field of great art and the other a "proliferation of dilettantism and a pushing back of male members" is to be feared. Just the idea of a joint education had "abhorred" the College. The Academy therefore advocates for the financial support of the art school for women and girls, and rejects the application for opening the academy for women unanimously. The main argument for the impossibility of the joint Aktzeichnens (nude drawing) and the need for a second Aktsaales (nude hall) is increasingly mentioned, which cannot be realized because lack of space and lack of money. Henni Lehmann (Artistic studies of women, Darmstadt 1913) countered the same argument in Germany: "The common nude studies of women and men can not be described as impossible as it is done in many places, without having shown any grievances". The objection of the Quorum of the Berlin University professors that no teacher could be forced to teach women at all in such delicate subjects is countered that the problem was easily solved by entrusting a lady the Aktunterricht (nude drawing) in ladies. Suitable artists were plentiful present. That the life drawing for a long time (until 1937) remained problematic, shows the application of the renowned sculptor Teresa F. Ries of 1931, in which she was offering the Academy her services for the purpose of the management of a yet to be affiliated department, where young girls separated from the young men could work under the direction of a woman. The application was not even put to a vote.
1912
The rector of the Munich Academy also does not believe in the inclusion of students (female ones): "... it is impossible, even with regard to the space conditions, apart from that that the aspirations of the artists who devote themselves to the arts especially are usually others than that of women..."
1913
No significant change in attitude can be found between the opinions of the Academies from 1904 and those of 1913.
1919
In the report from the College's meeting of the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna to the State Office of Internal Affairs and Teaching is communicated that against the requested admission there were no fundamental objections, but that the Academy is so limited in spatial relationship, that after the experiences of the last entrance exams not even the majority of gifted young artists, capable of studying, could be included, and therefore, in case of the admission of women to the study initially had to be made a considerable expansion. The State Office counters that a further delay in the admission of women to the academic study could not be justified and that approval is to allow at least temporarily in a narrow frame.
1920
The State Office for the Interior and Education officially approved the admission of women to study at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna (since 1919 women were admitted to all faculties of the University of Vienna, with the exception of the Catholic and Protestant Theological Faculty).
A committee consisting of the professors Bacher, Delug, Schmutzer, and Jettmar Muellner claims that the Academy has never pronounced in principle against women's studies but have always only expressed reservations because of the cramped space and financial situation. As a complete novelty proves that no more concerns are raised with regard to coeducation. Men and women should compete in the entrance examination. In the winter semester 1920/21 will be included 14 women, of course, representing only a small minority in relation to the 250 male students.
1926/1927
In the new study regulations are for the first time mentioned Schüler (M) and Schülerinnen (F).
March 1927
Report of the Academy of Fine and Applied Arts about the experiences regarding the access of women to universities: ..."in past years it was thought for the education of women and girls by the Academy of Women for Liberal and Applied Art, which is also equipped with academic classes and by the State subsidized, sufficiently having taken precautions: during a period of almost seven years of study, it was probably possible to get a clear picture about the access applications of women, and about the degree course ... Of course, the number of female candidates in the painting is strongest, weaker in sculpture, and very low in the architecture. As much already now can be said, that in no way in terms of education in the new admissions the women are left behind the male candidates. During the study period, the female students are not in diligence and seriousness of studying behind their male colleagues. Particularly gratifying can be emphasized that because of the co-education of both sexes in common rooms in the individual schools a win-win situation for everybody was. In the master schools the College was repeatedly able also honouring women with academic prices. Subsuming, it should be emphasized that our experiences with the study of women in the Academy of Fine Arts were quite favorable."
The number of students (Studentinnen) increased from 5 % in the winter semester 1920/1921 till 1939/1940 to about 25 %. After the annexation of Austria to Nazi Germany, the number of students (Studentinnen) decreased. The proportion of female students rose after 1940 naturally, reached during the war years up to 70 % and amounted 1945/1946 to 65%. From 1946/1947 the number of students (Studentinnen) fell sharply again, so 1952/1953 only 20% of the students at the Academy were women. 1963/1964 there were, however, already 41% (278).

Guadua is a Neotropics genus of thorny clumping bamboo, ranging from moderate to very large species. Physically, Guadua angustifolia is noted for being the largest Neotropics bamboo. The genus is similar to Bambusa and is sometimes included in Bambusa.
The genus is concentrated in the Amazon basin and the Orinoco basin. It usually grows at low altitudes (below 1,500 m), but has been found up to 2,500 m. Its habitats include lowland tropical and lower-montane forest, savannas, Cerrados, gallery forest, and disturbed inter-Andean valley vegetation.
From a utilitarian perspective, Guadua is the most important American bamboo. Due to its quality, the genus has been widely used for house construction along the inter-Andean rivers of Colombia and in coastal Ecuador.
Guadua angustifolia Kunth, endemic to Latin America, is slowly becoming well-known once again as a greatly desirable building material. Highly appreciated by the Liberator Simon Bolivar for its watershed protection and praised by Alexander von Humboldt for its wide variety of uses, it is being utilized in construction today by both the rich and the poor of South America.
Sadly, most of the huge tropical rain forests and their biodiversity has vanished, and millions of hectares have been transformed into pastures and cropland. It is only now, due to technical studies and research, that bamboo's superior mechanical properties have increased the importance of this "vegetable steel." While bamboo culms used for building can be harvested in natural forests, over- exploitation leads rapidly to the depletion of natural resources. For large-scale use of Guadua angustifolia, the management of sustainable bamboo forests and groves, as well as the establishment of new nurseries and plantations, is a priority.
Tropical bamboo can be propagated easily with cuttings or by covering complete culms with soil. The next year, new plants will sprout. Or, Guadua can be propagated more rapidly by the so-called chusquin method. Under this method, culms are cut at ground level when harvesting causing many small delicate shoots and new plants to grow around the original plant. This is a suitable method for large-scale forests or for farm cooperatives. Since bamboo is a grass, harvesting it down to the soil induces more new shoots to emerge, just like turf grass. This is a phenomenon not known in tropical hardwood forests.
