As the United States and North Korea try to trade some form of denuclearization for diplomatic and economic normalization, it is important for the United States and its allies to consider the potential impact of various approaches on common interests. This includes considering technical, political, and security aspects of dismantling North Korea’s programs from an alliance perspective in order to maximize effectiveness and cohesion.

 

Our half-day conference—featuring scholars and former officials from Japan, the United States, and South Korea—examined practical denuclearization options that can enhance collective security and contribute to a more stable foundation for regional peace.

Spotted it out at office on friend's desk.

Was not able to get complete focus on it. Still light not very good, need to improve on it.

The USFA's mission was to "normalize" Austria following WWII.

 

To reduce the tedium, the US Army sought pleasant diversions for its troops. This brochure encouraged servicemen to take advantage of Austria's excellent skiing sites.

 

How about the last words "Ski Heil!"

The picture, bottom center and left, identifies places visible from this hill. This is the hill north of the Vallejo Adobe and city of Sonoma.

 

This could be the left edge of a 2 frame panorama of the Valley. The frames would be laid out:

0218 | | 0219 with no overlap.

 

The quote is from Herb Caen, noted columnist, humorist and author of a nearly 60 year run of newspaper columns devoted to his adopted home-town and its surroundings. "A continuous love letter to San Francisco"[1]" described his work in [1] "The 1996 Pulitzer Prize Winners: Special Awards and Citations. Biography.". Quoted from his biography on Wikipedia.

 

These are the forested slopes north of the town of Sonoma. The trees are older and cover more ground since Europeans arrived. The Traditional Owners / Native Americans / First Nations enjoyed hunting and eating deer, so they employed deliberate fires to clear brush and young trees, leaving open ground for grazers.

 

Then, and now, this is a profoundly non-natural landscape. Including that tank, probably a water tank, on the left.

 

The first Mexican Governor of California forbade fires on wild land, whether set or allowed to spread from private land. This misguided approach to forest management, followed by deliberate marginalization, confining converts to the Missions as effective slaves, and massacres, of First Nations people, helped in stealing their land. Whatever the Traditional Owners had done was stopped, forbidden or interfered with, which destroyed them economically. English-speaking rulers replaced Spanish speaking rulers, but uninformed, incurious and deliberately indifferent treatment of both individually owned and wild lands in California was normalized as it was across the continent.

 

Total suppression of wildfire became the answer of every question, with the results only exacerbated by climate change.

M27 (Dumbbell, NGC6853m Apple Core) is a planetary Nebula residing at about 1,200 light-years from Earth, discovered by Charles Messier in 1764. It contains dense nodes of gas at its core, the glowing gas around the central star (a White Dwarf) is formed by ionized hydrogen (Orange-red) and ionized oxygen (Blue) and is a consequence of the star shedding its outer layers. M27 is the brightest planetary nebula in the night sky.

1. SI: People have learned to normalize the bad state of streets and communal spaces, leading to a scarcity of caring to fix them.

 

2. Materials: Rusting fence

 

3. Idea: This picture shows a fence in disrepair, guarding a community space filled with trees.

 

4. Process: I took the picture quite close to the fence, in a way where viewers could see the tree.

May 3, 2016: Over the last six months, risks to global financial stability have risen, according to the International Monetary Fund’s April 2016 Global Financial Stability Report. In advanced economies, the outlook has deteriorated because of heightened uncertainty and setbacks to growth and confidence. Disruptions to global asset markets have added to these pressures. Declines in oil and commodity prices have kept risks elevated in emerging markets, while greater uncertainty about China’s growth transition has increased spillovers to global markets. These developments tightened financial conditions, reduced risk appetite, and raised credit risks, weighing on financial stability. The situation in markets appears significantly improved, but is the turmoil of the past months now safely behind us, or is it a warning signal that more needs to be done to secure financial stability? The IMF’s April 2016 GFSR addresses this key question and many others.
