Autumn leaves are hanging on even into the depths of winter this year. In my little corner of the world, clouds often obscure the sun, especially in winter. In the darkness of December, these colorful Weigela leaves remind me of my own ability to make my own sunshine. :)

Having swapped cars with the CN at Lenzburg, this Kaskaskia River Railroad train returns to KRPD Dock 1 with a long string of loaded gypsum gondolas and empty limestone hoppers. The railroad and port were originally part of Peabody Coal Company's mining operations, but now almost exclusively handle materials moving to and from the Prairie State Energy Center a few miles away. I spoke with a crew member who indicated that business is booming, and the KRRC has barely enough manpower or resources to handle it. The obviously ex-UP GP15 is a recent arrival to help with the upswing in traffic.

...when livelihoods that feeds Humanity and protects the natural resources on Earth...were glorified as to inherit the Earth as caregivers of Humanity...

This fence definitely was a use of the available resources, and very little cash was expended in its construction. I actually see this quite often, but usually not next to a main road....HFF everyone!

"The war in Ukraine reminds us how unjust and painful the construction of a people's identity, the affirmation of national independence and the reclamation of one's roots can be. Repairing serious and profound wounds inflicted throughout history is a slow, complex and difficult process. A metaphor and monument of a similar condition is Lenka, in the Czech Pavilion. The famous giraffe captured in Kenya in 1954, transported to the Prague zoo, survived in captivity for only two years, then taxidermied and preserved in the museum, after having thrown its organs into the city sewers. Eva Kotakova's work, «The heart of a giraffe in captivity is twelve kilos lighter», is a walkable environmental installation that reproduces the inside of the long dissected neck of the animal arranged in a circle. In the center of the room there is a blackboard and a space for meeting and reflection to learn about its history, its meaning and its cultural implications. On the floor, Lenka's skeleton is reproduced and as a sound that pervades the Pavilion the hymns of the countries that the giraffe crossed on its long journey to Prague, many of which no longer exist today."

 

"La guerra in Ucraina ci ricorda quanto ingiuste e dolorose possano rivelarsi la costruzione di un’identità di un popolo, l’affermazione dell’indipendenza nazionale e la rivendicazione delle proprie radici. Risarcire gravi e profonde ferite inflitte nel corso della storia è un processo lento, complesso e difficile. Metafora e monumento di simile condizione è Lenka, nel Padiglione della Cecoslovacchia. La celebre giraffa catturata in Kenya nel 1954, trasportata allo zoo di Praga, sopravvissuta in cattività solo due anni, poi tassidermizzata e conservata nel museo, dopo aver gettato gli organi nelle fogne cittadine. L’opera di Eva Kotakova, «Il cuore di una giraffa in cattività è dodici chili più leggero», è un’installazione ambientale percorribile che riproduce l’interno del lungo collo sezionato dell’animale disposto a cerchio. Al centro della sala una lavagna e uno spazio di incontro e riflessione per conoscerne la storia, il suo significato e le sue implicazioni culturali. Sul pavimento lo scheletro di Lenka riprodotto e come suono che pervade il Padiglione gli inni dei Paesi che la giraffa attraversò nel suo lungo viaggio verso Praga, molti oggi non più esistenti."

Driving and walking rovers competed to survey a shadowy analogue of the south polar lunar surface for useable resources during the inaugural ESA-ESRIC Space Resources Challenge. Some 13 teams from across Europe and Canada took part in last month’s field test, with the winners due to be announced shortly.

 

The Space Resources Challenge – supported by ESA and the European Space Resources Innovation Centre (ESRIC) in Luxembourg – is asking European (and Canadian) researchers and institutions to develop and demonstrate a system of one or more vehicles capable of prospecting resources on the Moon in the near future.

 

Massimo Sabbatini, overseeing the contest for ESA, comments: “ESA is analysing the results of the first field test of the Challenge and the competition is fierce. There was a wide range of participants and technological solutions to the problem of prospecting: notably different locomotion techniques – legged, wheeled, tracked, and so on – and approaches, such as single versus multiple vehicles and aerial vehicles. The jury is out!”

 

The emphasis of the contest is on prospecting: pinpointing promising resources within a difficult lunar environment then characterising them in as much detail as possible, such as through visual inspection or spectral analysis.

 

The lunar poles are a focus of interest for future exploration. They do not experience the crippling temperature extremes of the Moon’s two-week days and nights, and frozen water and other deposits are believed to be buried within permanently shadowed polar craters.

 

The Space Resources Challenge teams gathered at Valkenberg in the Netherlands had to contend with challenging illumination conditions and potential loss of signal events to locate resources, including mapping a small impact crater in the vicinity of the rover’s lander – all within a two and a half hour time limit.

 

The five winners will be awarded €375 000 in ESA contracts, with a larger prize pool on offer after a follow-on field test hosted by ESRIC next year.

Excerpt from www.crca.ca/wp-content/uploads/PDFs/LakeReports/2017-Fact...:

 

Upper Beverley Lake is a natural, shallow, warmwater lake located on sandstone bedrock and enhanced by the construction of a dam. Like the majority of lakes within the Cataraqui Region, Upper Beverley Lake mixes in the spring and fall due to lake water warming and cooling. During this mixing process, nutrients are cycled throughout the lake, giving the water a cloudy appearance as well as a brown or green hue from algae that feed off the cycling nutrients. Later in the spring, summer, and winter, water temperatures vary by depth (thermal stratification) so multiple fish species are found at different depth and temperature

ranges.

 

Originally, Upper Beverley Lake was two small waterbodies until the creation of the Delta Dam. Water levels are controlled by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF) at Delta Dam directly on the lake and are maintained within a one-meter fluctuation based on seasonal variations in rainfall, snowmelt and evaporation. The majority of the lake’s shoreline remains in its natural state.

A queen ant is an adult, reproducing female ant in an ant colony; generally she will be the mother of all the other ants in that colony. Some female ants do not need to mate to produce offspring, reproducing through asexual parthenogenesis or cloning and all of those offspring will be female.

 

Ant offspring develop from larvae specially fed in order to become sexually mature among most species. Depending on the species, there can be either a single mother queen, or potentially, hundreds of fertile queens in some species.

All the resources agree that Villa cingulata is a rare insect, but this female spotted at Thurlbear Quarrylands butterfly reserve means that I've now found it at two locations in Somerset - the other being more than 15 miles away as the crow flies, at Hatch Hill on the Polden Ridge.

 

This is on hedge bedstraw, Galium mollugo, but the favoured nectaring plant, wild parsnip, was also nearby.

The shaded crater in the foreground is Reinhold. Reinhold B is the crater next to Reinhold which as the small crater in the center of it. Also, visible is the keyhole-shaped crater Fauth near the crater Copernicus.
