This twisting tower clad in reflective aluminum tiles was designed by architect Frank Gehry. I love this building, called Arts Resource Centre, like almost everything that Frank Gehry does. It was not fully finished yet when I took this picture.
It is part of the LUMA Arles experimental cultural complex also called the Parc des Atelier, an arts center established by Swiss collector Maja Hoffmann and dedicated to providing artists with opportunities to experiment in the production of new work through interdisciplinary collaboration.
"Due to be 56 meters high when complete, the tower is formed of a concrete core with a steel frame. Glass boxes and shining aluminum panels are stacked around this in an irregular formation above a circular glass atrium.
Gehry's design for the façade is supposed to echo the craggy rock formations found near the city, the same kind that inspired sometime-resident Vincent van Gogh to paint them in 1888.
Inside, a vast circular atrium will recall the Roman amphitheater in Arles, part of the city's designated UNESCO World Heritage site.
American architecture critic Frank Miller described Gehry's design as a "stainless-steel tornado", although some locals have reportedly dismissed it as resembling a crumpled drinks can."

An old abandon artesian well that is no longer in service. A lot of times these are overlooked concerns.
The well was drill in 1905, it is 1142 feet deep, and flowed 48 gallons per minute per SD DENR well log document.

Water is the single most important natural resource underpinning Nepal’s economy and livelihoods. Inclusive, sustainable management of water resources in Nepal depends on addressing climate change and protecting healthy, biodiverse ecosystems.
The USAID Paani program will enhance Nepal’s ability to manage water resources for multiple uses and users through climate change adaptation and the conservation of freshwater biodiversity. Focusing primarily at the watershed, basin, and national scales, USAID Paani will reduce threats to freshwater biodiversity and increase the ability of targeted human and ecological communities in the Karnali, Mahakali, and Rapti river basins to adapt to the adverse impacts of climate change through improved water management.
The program will play a pivotal role in shaping Nepal’s management of critical water resources between now and 2020. It will apply an integrated, whole-of-basin perspective to freshwater biodiversity conservation and sustainable water management in the three critical river basins in Mid-Western and Far-Western Nepal in response to changing climate conditions. Paani is part of USAID’s on-going investment in strengthening natural resource management in Nepal. It is a sister project to the USAID-funded Nepal Hydropower Development Project (NHDP) and complementary projects funded by the US Forest Service and the International Water Management Institute (IWMI). It will build upon USAID/Nepal’s experience in terrestrial conservation, extending successful community-based models for reducing threats to key species and building resilience from Nepal’s high mountain slopes to the rich waterways in some of the most pristine natural habitat on the planet.

Excess Chemicals, Manure, or Bio-Solids in Ground or Surface Water: Pathogens, pharmaceuticals, and other chemicals are transported to receiving waters in quantities that degrade water quality and limit use for intended purposes. This resource concern also includes the offsite transport of leachate and runoff from compost or other organic materials of animal origin.
Cattle have damaged the edge of the waterway, causing erosion to occur. Allowing cattle access to this water outlet can cause a buildup of biosolids from manure to travel downstream. These biosolids can greatly diminish water quality for downstream users.
Pathogens and Chemicals Transported to Surface Water
Pathogens, pharmaceuticals, leachate, and chemicals from manure, biosolids or compost transported to receiving waters in quantities that degrade water quality and limit uses.
What is it?
Potential pathogens (disease-causing microorganisms) and chemicals can be found in manure, biosolids, and compost. The pathogens include bacteria, protozoa, and viruses. If manure, biosolids, and compost are not adequately treated and contained, pathogens may enter surface water posing a potential risk to human and animal health.
Why is it important?
Pathogens can be transmitted to humans directly through contact with animals, animal manures, or indirectly through contaminated water or food. Human illness and death can result from exposure to pathogens from improperly treated livestock and poultry manure, biosolids, and compost. Pathogens can also be transmitted to domestic and wild animals with similar results.
What can be done about it?
The most effective tool in eliminating pathogens, from both practical and economic standpoints, is time. If manure, biosolids, and compost are allowed to sit undisturbed in storage or in soil, the concentration of pathogens will decrease with time as they die off or are overgrown by native microbes. Managing manure, biosolids, and compost for pathogens is approached in two phases: 1) collection and storage and 2) land treatment. It is also important to manage livestock access to surface water (streams, rivers and water bodies). Pathogens can threaten humans who are exposed to runoff, have direct contact with manure, biosolids, and compost, or consume food or water contaminated with manure. Application rates and seasonal conditions are important factors contributing to the transfer of pathogens from lands where manure has recently been applied to nearby surface water. Managing the rate, timing, and method of application of manure are critical elements in managing for pathogens. Keeping a buffer zone or setback distance between manure application areas and water bodies is a common practice that greatly decreases the transport of pathogens to those water bodies.

Irrepresentable Collectivity?
Abstract
Anonymous is a model of collectivity that operates within the biopolitics of software and emerges at the intersection of human beings, affects and codes. It materializes the demand for “community without unity“ (Thacker) and inspires to (re)think the constitution of the social/political beyond a logic of antagonistic relation. By concentrating on Anonymous as a phenomenon that strives to escape representational logics and disciplinary borders I use it to question traditional research approaches and ask for a transversal perspective.

Conservation officers, natural resource officers and park rangers want everyone to have a safe and fun holiday, so they'll be ramping up patrols on the water, land and in the backcountry over the May long weekend.
Enforcement focus will be on the environment, fish and wildlife regulations, as well as policies around parks, conservancy and recreation sites.
The increased patrols will help ensure public safety, as well as help protect sensitive ecosystems for future generations to enjoy.

This event showcased two coastal integrated population, health, and environment (PHE) programs that address interconnected marine management and human health issues. Fatou Janha discussed how TRY Oysters has successfully empowered women oyster harvesters in Gambia by raising their standard of living, encouraging sustainable production methods, and providing health and family planning services. Vik Mohan discussed how Blue Ventures has successfully engaged women octopi fishers in Madagascar with conservation initiatives while also providing sexual and reproductive health services. He also touched on the role that the program’s PHE infrastructure plays in responding to natural disasters. Finally, Kame Westerman highlighted the role of women in natural resource management.
