The Eastern Hellbender Juvenile Habitat Restoration project is funded through the State Wildlife Grant Program to assess survival in juveniles receiving an enriched captive environment and enriched juvenile habitat in the Blue River, IN. This research project is with the Indiana DNR and the Purdue Aquaculture Research Lab at Purdue University. In addition, 167 juvenile hellbenders will continue to be reared at the Purdue aquaculture facility and be released in 2017 as part of the reintroduction program.
The overarching goals of this research are to assess the historical eastern hellbender habitats for potential reintroductions and reintroduce captive reared juveniles into a former portion of their native range. The specific goals of the project include conducting eDNA screening, habitat suitability assessments, and estimating post-release survival using radio-telemetry. Ultimately, the results of this research could influence management decisions to repatriate eastern hellbenders throughout portions of its former range within Indiana and prevent extirpation.

This morning before I went on a little walk in the trail behind my house, I had to knock the snow off of a few of my bushes. This is how the snow looked on top of one of my smaller trees. The snow is melting a little bit which is causing it to look like it does in this picture.

A barragem de Óbidos localiza-se no concelho de Óbidos, distrito de Leiria, Portugal. Situa-se na rio Arnóia. A barragem foi projectada em 1997 e entrou em funcionamento em 2005.
Barragem
É uma barragem de aterro (terra zonada com núcleo central). Possui uma altura de 24 m acima da fundação (21 m acima do terreno natural) e um comprimento de coroamento de 160 m (largura de 7 m). O volume da barragem é de 157.000 m³. Possui uma capacidade de descarga máxima de 2,74 (descarga de fundo) + 494 (descarregador de cheias) m³/s.
Albufeira
A albufeira da barragem apresenta uma superfície inundável ao NPA (Nível Pleno de Armazenamento) de 1,01 km² e tem uma capacidade total de 7,1 Mio. m³ (capacidade útil de 5,8 Mio. m³). As cotas de água na albufeira são: NPA de 32,5 metros, NMC (Nível Máximo de Cheia) de 33,6 metros e NME (Nível Mínimo de Exploração) de 22 metros. pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barragem_de_%C3%93bidos
The Hungarian Museum of Applied Arts is organising a project on recycleing the leftovers of the enameled roof tiles of the building - into jewellery. The amazing buliding was constructed between 1893 and 1896 in the sprit of the secession. The ceramic ornaments and tiles were made by the famous Zsolnay factory.
I received 3 palm size, very dirty pieces and made my experiments with them, finally I decided the design.
It is a fantastic material. By flex shaft I can cut it and the more that 110 years old enamel does not peal off at all! You can see on the picture that even on the tiny parts it is intact. The back is a porous but strong whiteish ceramic.
SO... I made this sterling pendant that you can fill up with the Zsolnay ceramic tiles. You've got the choice of 4 coloures, you've got 8-8 square tiles and there are also 2 triangles. In the future I plan to make some additional fillings too. You slide the tiles into the frame and then you pull the black leather string thight that closes the top.
I asked my mathematician brother how many combinations can one create with this setup. He made some quick calculations and the result is:
If you use all 4 coloures, both the triangles and the square tiles you can make 983040 (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) different pendants (including that on the back side you have the "opposite" combination)
Let's say that I would sell this jewel for 300 money (have not decided yet). It means that for this price you have 983040 pendants, so you only pay 0.00030517578 money for one pendant. It is practicly free!! Don't miss this occasion!!
One more reason to buy it: If you wear every day a different combination, you will be more than 2693 years old when you finish it - and by that time you can update the coulours and shapes to extend it by a couple of thousand years.
I've been moved to a different room on the hospital ward.
A different room, a different view from the window.

The Eden Project is a visitor attraction in Cornwall, England. Inside the two biomes are plants that are collected from many diverse climates and environments. The project is located in a reclaimed Kaolinite pit, located 2 km (1.2 mi) from the town of St Blazey and 5 km (3 mi) from the larger town of St Austell, Cornwall.
The complex is dominated by two huge enclosures consisting of adjoining omes that house thousands of plant species, and each enclosure emulates a natural biome. The biomes consist of hundreds of hexagonal and pentagonal, inflated, plastic cells supported by steel frames. The largest of the two biomes simulates a Rainforest environment and the second, a Mediterranean environment. The attraction also has an outside botanical garden which is home to many plants and wildlife native to Cornwall and the UK in general; it also has many plants that provide an important and interesting backstory, for example, those with a prehistoric heritage.
"Project 7 is a single-seater sports car based on the F-TYPE, with the kind of racing-inspired form that designers dream about. It has one purpose: to be driven fast and enjoyed.Jaguar sports cars are known for exceptional performance and clean design. Project 7 captures that spirit in its purest form."

Right after playing at the Sunshine Park fountain, we were lucky to catch the ice cream truck. It's hard to see in this photo of a photo but i caught some sweet light in Kylie's eyes as she started eating her ice cream.
We ordered books 1-8 of the Ivy and Bean book series. The set came with Ivy and Bean paper dolls and lots of re-usable sticker clothes and accessories. Kylie has played with these dolls quite a bit this week. I’ve loved to watch her change their clothes and act out scenes with them.
Journaling on the card with red string: knew Kylie was too quiet. I was working in the office and realized that I hadn’t heard Kylie. I popped up and Kylie yelled, “Surprise!” from the kitchen. She had made a pretend laser beam obstacle course in the kitchen. She had taped red yarn in all different directions throughout the kitchen. It was very creative!
Knitting card: I finished knitting Mom’s “Baby It’s Cold Outside” poncho. I still need to weave in the ends and wash/block it. I started knitting Dad’s “Henry” scarf. I’m using Rowan’s Classic Yarns Cashsoft 4 ply yarn in a pretty gray color named “Thunder”. I’ve been knitting on it while watching the Olympics. Both knitting projects are going to be Christmas presents.
///// By the way, I looked all over the place for a ball-of-yarn Photoshop brush and couldn't find one anywhere. If anyone knows of such a brush or a knitting journaling card, please let me know. /////
Kylie has been adamant about opening the heavy doors at our local library. She loves to show me how strong she is.
You might think it's funny to have a "Life is so, so good" banner next to me running but I didn't really know just how much I loved to run until I was injured and couldn't run at all. The green journaling card states:
With trainer Joy’s help, I had a great month of training. I feel like I’m finally moving past my plantar fasciitis injury that I incurred in May and that waylaid me during June. I am thrilled to be running again!! In July I exercised 27 days and had 4 days off. This month I had:
14 runs for a total of 53.64 miles
5 bike rides for 62.32 miles
7 swims for 9700 yards (5.5 miles)
3 strength training sessions and
2 yoga sessions.
Thanks for looking!
Aerojet-General second stage being hoisted into position on 8/4/57. On the TV-2 vehicle, only the first stage ( Martin-built modified Viking rocket ) was fully functional. In the second and third stages, only a few systems were active. The stages were weight and balance correct, but inert. Glenn L. Martin Co. Photo.
9 / 50 : Sneak Peek
Tonight, a good friend of mine gave me one of the most sincere critics ever.
She said that the photos I'm doing for this project 50of50 are not bad, but lack of my strong points.
And most importantly, she said you can feel the hesitation behind the shoot.
Such critics are always good and extremely positive, even if you have to face that you're putting out something that is below your own standards.
I know I started this 50of50 Project to pull me out of a lazy vicious circle and to improve in both lighting techniques and organizing photoshoots with people.
I thought I was going to be "pretty safe" through this project, being that I survived a 365 project last year, but I'm starting to see that this one's way more difficult.
But if there's something I learned for sure is that the more challenge you put on yourself, the greater the results (especially in the long run) are gonna be... And I believe in it.
So here's a realistic view of what any person passing by the bar next to my house could have seen tonight: a man having troubles, but not giving up.
Nine done, JUST 41 to go!
