Lake Michigan Beach House, Ludington State Park
Hamlin Township, Michigan
Listed 09/30/2013
Reference Number: 13000798
The Lake Michigan Beach House meets national register criterion A as one of the largest building products of federal Depression-relief activities in Michigan's state parks during the 1930s, having been designed by a National Park Service architect, Ralph B. Herrick, working in Lansing, and built as part of a program of park developments undertaken by Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) workers at Ludington State Park. The beach house meets criterion C as a fine example of Arts-and-Crafts-inspired design in the Michigan state parks and as a unique structure among Michigan state park structures built then or throughout the state park system's history for its use of recycled brick in the pressed mortar style of construction with the mortar joints left untrowelled and unstruck.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. – Some of the state’s most remarkable students gathered March 10 for the University of Missouri System’s annual Undergraduate Research Day at the Capitol in Jefferson City.
In total, 59 students from the university’s four campuses discussed their work with senators, representatives and other visitors. Each student was selected in a competitive process and recommended by his or her campus, including 30 from the MU campus; 10 from UMKC; 16 from Missouri S&T; and three from UMSL. The students shared their research from a variety of disciplines including criminology, biology, education, engineering, and political science.
"Research has been fundamental to the University of Missouri since it became a land-grant university more than 150 years ago,” Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs, Research and Economic Development Hank Foley said. “Research exposes students to the wonders and possibilities of research and innovation, and helps develop them as future scientists and entrepreneurs whose discoveries could result in new businesses and jobs, and improve the quality of life for Missourians.”
With research core to its mission, the UM System accounts for 96.9 percent of all research conducted by public universities in Missouri.
“No other public higher education institution in the state provides undergraduate students with the breadth and depth of research opportunities as the UM System,” Vice President for University Relations Steve Knorr said. “Giving our students an opportunity to showcase their work at the state Capitol with their own hometown legislators spreads the value message for higher education on a greater level.”
The UM System is one of the nation’s largest public research and doctoral level institutions with more than 77,000 students on four campuses and an extension program with activities in every county of the state.
One of our Solar System's most tantalizing worlds, Enceladus is backlit by the Sun in this Cassini spacecraft image from November 1, 2009. The dramatic illumination reveals the plumes that continuously spew into space from the south pole of Saturn's 500 kilometer diameter moon. Discovered by Cassini in 2005, the icy plumes are likely connected to an ocean beneath the ice shell of Enceladus. They supply material directly to Saturn's outer, tenuous E ring and make the surface of Enceladus as reflective as snow. Across the scene, Saturn's icy rings scatter sunlight toward Cassini's cameras. Beyond the rings, the night side of 80 kilometer diameter moon Pandora is faintly lit by Saturnlight. via NASA ift.tt/2EsEHEh
On May 19, the Juno spacecraft once again swung by Jupiter in its looping 53 day orbit around the Solar System's ruling gas gaint. Beginning at the top, this vertical 14 frame sequence of enhanced-color JunoCam images follows the spacecraft's rapidly changing perspective during its two hour passage. They look down on Jupiter's north polar region, equatorial, and south polar region (bottom images). With the field-of-view shrinking, the seventh and eighth images in the sequence are close-up. Taken only 4 minutes apart above Jupiter's equator they were captured just before the spacecraft reached perijove 6, its closest approach to Jupiter on this orbit. Final images in the sequence pick up white oval storm systems, Jupiter's "String of Pearls", and the south polar region from the outward bound spacecraft. via NASA ift.tt/2rLehHf

While this object is a replica, it is a functional replica – according to the engineers at LowNote Studios who produced it, the note made by this whistle is identical in pitch to the 2600 Hz tone produced by the original 1960s/70s toy whistles that were given away free inside packages of Cap'n Crunch breakfast cereal in the US – and which would also unlock the ability for any public pay telephone then in the United States to make free international telephone calls when blown into the receiver after first picking it up, since it was the same tone used by the AT&T telecom system's audio interface. This was considered the first real computer hack, and became legendary in underground geek culture at the time as "phone phreaking". Steve Wozniak, a young computer engineer, learned about phone phreaking and decided to build a small mechanical device that could replicate all the tones used by AT&T's audio interface. This "Little Blue Box" as it was called caught the interest of Wozniak's friend Steve Jobs, and the pair of them decided to try selling the boxes to students on college campuses across the US – their first business together, before the creation of Apple Computer. Without these free breakfast cereal whistles, we never would have had the iPod.

Munsell Color Theory
The fundamentals of color are based on Albert H. Munsell’s theory of color. The way you visually match color today is the result of Albert H. Munsell’s work nearly a century ago. In fact, modern day color theory and mathematical color system is based on Munsell’s theory of color.
An artist and an educator, Munsell developed his color theory to bring clarity to color communication by establishing an orderly system for accurately identifying every color that exists. Munsell based his system on what he defined as "perceived equidistance” — the human visual system's perception of color.

The much-hyped atmospheric river finally batters California! Very strong & gusty southerly winds & rain were observed as this strongly awaited atmospheric river/storm system’s main cold front made ‘landfall’ in the Bay Area. This was indeed the strongest storm so far this season for the region. Conditions outside looked like a tropical storm! Certainly, this was a stormy night for the region. The Sierras were also looking at feet of snowfall before all this is said & done. This evening was just the 1st part of the storm. More heavy rain & wind was in store for the state over the next day or two as this atmospheric river was forecast to inch back north towards the South Bay the very next day... Things would finally die down by Friday. Stay safe out there! (January 26-27, 2021)
*Weather forecast/update: A strong Pacific storm, or atmospheric river, was expected to bring periods of moderate to heavy rain to the region. This system was forecast to arrive by Tuesday (Jan 26) & was to bring periods of heavy rain & high winds. This will likely result in an increased risk of mudslides over steep terrain, debris flow over wildfire burned areas, as well as localized ponding of water in low-lying areas. Up to 3 inches of rain was expected in urban areas & 3-7 inches possible over higher terrain. The entire area from Napa south thru Monterey & San Benito Counties would get a good soaking from this atmospheric river. Latest model guidance suggests the coastal slopes of the Santa Cruz Mountains & Big Sur look to be the primary target of the heaviest rain. On top of this, a high wind watch was also in effect during the period. South winds 20-30 mph with gusts up to 50-60 mph are possible. North Bay, San Francisco Bay Shoreline, East Bay, Santa Cruz Mountains, and the South Bay will all be affected. Timing of the strongest winds are forecast to happen Tuesday evening thru Wednesday morning as this strong system’s cold front sweeps thru. Damaging winds can blow down trees & power lines which may result in power outages… Stay tuned to the latest forecast for the most up-to-date weather info online…
Driving straight into the storm! Moderate to heavy rain/hail shortly followed. A cold storm system was pushing inland this day, destabilizing the atmosphere over the region, causing scattered showers with moderate to heavy rain, hail and even lightning/thunder! I love this weather! Pic taken from around San Jose, CA. (Thursday, January 25, 2018; 12:51 p.m.)
*Weather scenario/update:
Another cold storm system ushered in more beneficial rain & snow to California. The system’s cold front that moved thru overnight Wednesday had delivered a decent soaking, with rainfall totals ranging roughly one-quarter to one-half inch. As of 5 p.m. Thursday, 48-hour rainfall totaled 0.49 inches in San Jose & 0.48 inches in S.F. Up to 1½ feet of snow fell in the Sierras. Chain controls were in effect for stretches of I-80 & Highway 50. But following the showers, hail & even some lightning/thunder around the Bay Area on Thursday as the system’s cold upper low pushes inland, a ridge of high pressure was expected to redevelop over the Pacific & block any more storms from reaching our area thru the 1st week of February or so... January has been a wet month for much of the Bay Area so far. Many cities already surpassed their monthly rainfall average, including 5.13 inches in S.F. (112%) & 3.06 inches in San Jose (106%). Still, it wasn’t enough to overcome one of the driest Decembers on record. Hopefully, February & March would bring us more rainfall...

A long recognized naked-eye variable star, R Aquarii is actually an interacting binary star system, two stars that seem to have a close, symbiotic relationship. About 710 light years away, it consists of a cool red giant star and hot, dense white dwarf star in mutual orbit around their common center of mass. The binary system's visible light is dominated by the red giant, itself a Mira-type long period variable star. But material in cool giant star's extended envelope is pulled by gravity onto the surface of the smaller, denser white dwarf, eventually triggering a thermonuclear explosion and blasting material into space. Optical image data (red) shows the still expanding ring of debris originating from a blast that would have been seen in the early 1770s. The evolution of less understood energetic events producing high energy emission in the R Aquarii system has been monitored since 2000 using Chandra X-ray Observatory data (blue). The composite field of view is less that a light-year across at the estimated distance of R Aquarii. via NASA ift.tt/2tjeNfX

Tokyo, capitale tentaculaire, a tissé son réseau ferré comme une immense toile d'araignée prête à desservir toutes les visites envisageables. Mais si le fonctionnement reste limpide, son système s'avère assez particulier et même plutôt unique parmi tous les réseaux du monde ; en effet, puisque plusieurs compagnies y embarquent les voyageurs, souvent d'ailleurs dans le mêmes gares voire sur les mêmes rails.
Beaucoup de gares situées dans la capitale et autour s'avèrent très empruntées. À titre informatif, voici celles ayant accueilli le plus de passagers par jour en 2013 (derniers chiffres disponibles en date) :
1Shinjuku : 751.018
2Ikebukuro : 550.350
3Tokyo : 415.908
4Yokohama : 406.594
5Shibuya : 378.539
6Shinagawa : 335.661
7Shinbashi : 254.945
8Omiya : 245.479
9Akihabara : 240.327
En 2015, il y avait 2,4 millions de "navetteurs" chaque jour à Tokyo (travailleurs venant dans la capitale depuis les préfectures alentour).
Indispensable au moment de ressortir du réseau : les panneaux de sorties, sur fond jaune, qui détaillent l'ensemble des issues. Dans certaines des plus grandes gares, qui s'apparentent à un petit dédale, on peut en compter plusieurs dizaines ! Et comme l'orientation en pleine rue n'est pas le point fort ni de Tokyo ni du Japon en général, autant éviter de se fatiguer à parcourir inutilement de longues distances voire se perdre, en particulier lorsque la météo n'est pas clémente. Pour sortir au plus près de votre destination, il faut mieux prendre le temps de consulter ces panneaux jaunes et sortez à la bonne bouche.
