Per comporre un paesaggio e raccontare una storia bastano talvolta pochi elementi. Nella Maremma di Grosseto una

ondulazione coltivata a grano, una vecchia e sofferente quercia e una nuvola raccontano una storia antica. Raccontano di una foresta estinta e di generazioni di agricoltori all'aratro, alla semina e alla falce. Raccontano del tempo che sembra essersi fermato e dell'estinzione dei contadini ..... ..

The Grandchildren's lovely wooden game of balance with Seals, Whales and Polar Bears and a die for choosing which animal to try and balance on the ice cap. It's also lovely for imaginative play for one♡

Smile on Saturday: Tabletop Game Components

...on a circuit board.

 

For Macro Mondays: "Small and Smaller" theme, it's a demonstration board from Universal Instruments Corp. that I've had for many years. The company builds automated machines for placing and attaching components--both small and smaller--to circuit boards.

 

The image measures just 1 5/8-inch on the long side.

When i read the theme for the next Smile on Saturday Challenge then instantly Memories of my childhood came up. I don`t know how many Hours my friends an me have spent playing this great Game called RISK ! The Game is well known around the world and gets played since over 60 Years by Generations. Back in 1957 it got created by Albert Lamorisse, a french filmmaker. I still own the Game and we play it from time to time when we celebate game nights. So i took the chance to shoot an image of my DE LUXE Version of the Game for the theme quite a while ago.

 

Risk is a strategy board game of diplomacy, conflict and conquest for two to six players. The standard version is played on a board depicting a political map of the world, divided into forty-two territories, which are grouped into six continents. Turns rotate among players who control armies of playing pieces with which they attempt to capture territories from other players, with results determined by dice rolls. Players may form and dissolve alliances during the course of the game. The goal of the game is to occupy every territory on the board and, in doing so, eliminate the other players. The game can be lengthy, requiring several hours to multiple days to finish. European versions are structured so that each player has a limited "secret mission" objective that shortens the game.

Secretary had to make a (minor) repair to his valued old oscilloscope. And when he already had it open on the table, he couldn't help but portray the inside.

The docklands has always been a major component of the Dublin’s history and development. Beginning with the Vikings and Norman settlers the docklands became quite a significant commerce and trading hub. Recently companies such as Google and Facebook have created tens of thousands of jobs and transformed the docklands into a bustling area. Only a short distance from the City Centre it has become home to numerous entertainment venues including music, theatre, opera, exhibitions and galleries. If you are feeling daring the docklands offers a variety of outdoor activities including kayaking and wake boarding. Dublin’s Docklands is sure to have something for everyone, why not make a day of it?

Weather Can Change Rapidly in the Northern Adriatic and Especially at Cape Kamenjak Where the Winds Easily Swell the Sea whose Waters Are Deep up to the Shore

 

After Bora wind and cold and a couple of sunny days, an Atlantic front is preceded by southern currents that channel into the Adriatic Sea.

 

Thus the other recurring wind of these areas is generated, which is the Jugo (Scirocco in Italian) coming from the S/E or S/SE.

 

It is a wind originating from opposite currents to those that activate the bora, it is a matter of humid and mild Mediterranean or North African air masses.

 

What the two winds have in common is that the Jugo also has an orographic component, felt in a particular way along the Croatian coast on the mainland which from Dalmatia goes up towards the Kvarner, with characteristics that at times recall the bora as the currents are channeled between the dinaric gates the sea channels and the islands, thus generating not only an isobaric winds, whose direction of origin is generally varied (following the disposition of the isobars which are constantly changing), but also orographic, therefore falling from the Dinaric Alps with a fixed direction with irregular and drying gusts, which are, sometimes, strong and rabid, being able to reach 90/100kmph, exceptionally 120kmph, in some areas, especially along the Velebitski Kanal/Velebit Channel and, less accentuated, in Kvarnerić, between Otok Cres and Otok Krk.

 

It is therefore a recurring wind and for this reason it has a name, while the winds caused only by LP isobars, however continuous and intense, often change direction and are therefore defined only according to the quadrant of the wind rose from which they temporarily come.

 

In this case/shot the southern currents were not very intense and the wind was only moderate, generating normal waves for this area, i.e. about 2/2.5 meters in height, but in case of stormy situations (with very narrow isobars, as in the storm of Jugo/Scirocco of 29 October 2018) the waves on this cape can reach 6/7 meters in height, taking along the entire Adriatic from South to North for hundreds of kilometers and resulting in the place where the waves are most highest of all the small Adriatic.

 

Furthermore, Cape Kamenjak is quite distant from the islands and the Dalmatian coast, therefore the coastal orographic effects are felt much less and more the isobaric ones with the direction of origin more often oriented from S/SE instead of S/E, although this is also a form of channeling, i.e. the currents are channeled into the Adriatic, as if it were a wide channel and the Adriatic has an axis from S/SE towards N/NW, the resulting wind is therefore continuous and humid, sometimes with high average speeds, but without significant gusts, favoring regular swell.

 

The recurring wind from S/E or S/SE which mainly affects the central-northern Adriatic is a partially isobaric and partially orographic wind, this means that almost all the Atlantic perturbations that approach these areas activate (almost always) the jugo and much more rarely winds from the full South or South-West, which are only isobaric and therefore of short duration and non-recurring, generally present when the front passes and the isobars bend towards the west.

This weeks Macro Monday theme is "Begins with the Letter P". Prism covers that nicely.

 

This photo was taken in my workshop, the only place I could set up the conditions needed to illustrate the refractive properties of the prism. Unfortunately it is very dusty there, and the inexpensive acrylic prism was like a small dust magnet. But you get the point.

In this shot of Copper Island, the cloud I saw from a distance plays a major part. As it was forming I raced to a familiar spot to catch it at just the right time. Copper Island is left as a silhouette, and makes the shot more about shapes than the nature it captures.

"Complexity characterises the behaviour of a system or model whose components interact in multiple ways and follow local rules, leading to non-linearity, randomness, collective dynamics, hierarchy, and emergence.

  

The term is generally used to characterize something with many parts where those parts interact with each other in multiple ways, culminating in a higher order of emergence greater than the sum of its parts. The study of these complex linkages at various scales is the main goal of complex systems theory.

  

The intuitive criterion of complexity can be formulated as follows: a system would be more complex if more parts could be distinguished, and if more connections between them existed." (WP)

  

"La complexité caractérise le comportement d'un système ou d'un modèle dont les composants interagissent de multiples manières et suivent des règles locales, conduisant à la non-linéarité, au hasard, à la dynamique collective, à la hiérarchie et à l'émergence.

  

Le terme est généralement utilisé pour caractériser quelque chose comportant de nombreuses parties, où ces parties interagissent les unes avec les autres de multiples manières, aboutissant à un ordre d'émergence supérieur supérieur à la somme de ses parties. L’étude de ces liens complexes à différentes échelles constitue l’objectif principal de la théorie des systèmes complexes.

  

Le critère intuitif de complexité peut être formulé ainsi : un système serait plus complexe si plus de parties pouvaient être distinguées et s'il existait plus de connexions entre elles. » (WP)
