Even though the laptop could not survive everyday use, it was surprisingly intact after I drove over it.

Beautiful "Rio" private pool at Riverbend Hot Springs overlooking the Rio Grande - Truth or Consequences, NM.
"Truth or Consequences is thrice blessed with its pure untainted air - abundance of warm pain relieving sun shine and its health giving hot mineral waters. Thousands of people come annually to this health center for relief of Arthritis - rheumatic diseases - sinus - asthma and other respiratory disorders - they get relief by these God-given elements."

Day 288
I don't usually post photos of Jaymi while she's upset because I don't want everyone to think she's like this all the time. But tonight at bedtime she had to live with a consequence that she didn't like, so she was crying. I needed to get her to bed, so I just snapped this picture.
Ah...such is the life of a parent!

Everything we do has consequences. Some things are more important, others less so. Often, the future doesn’t look too bright. Catastrophes, crises and environmental destruction appear to be looming. A force majeure seems to be in control of our destiny … But is that really the case? Get together with experts in peace, aid and the environment, and develop new images of the future! And then print out your ideas, creatively and artistically, in the THINKING PICASSO art project.

We rarely need to drive in town. Our fixed gear bikes that we brought

This is a modest hommage to the courageous people of Fukushima prefecture. They survived a triple disaster in 2011 and are now, nine years later, still fighting with the consequences. I wish them well in their strugle for their beautiful province and thank them for their kindness during this trip.
Fukushima is the third largest prefecture in Japan (14,000 km²), and one of its least densely populated. The prefecture is divided into three main regions: Aizu in the west, Naka dori in the centre and Hama dori in the east. Aizu is mountainous with snowy winters, while the climate in Hama dori is moderated by the Pacific Ocean.
The Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster (福島第一原子力発電所事故 Fukushima Dai-ichi (About this soundpronunciation) genshiryoku hatsudensho jiko) was a nuclear accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant in Ōkuma, Fukushima Prefecture. The disaster was the most severe nuclear accident since the 26 April 1986 Chernobyl disaster and the only other disaster to be given the Level 7 event classification of the International Nuclear Event Scale.
The accident was started by the Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami on 11 March 2011.] On detecting the earthquake, the active reactors automatically shut down their fission reactions. Because of the reactor trips and other grid problems, the electricity supply failed, and the reactors' emergency diesel generators automatically started. Critically, they were powering the pumps that circulated coolant through the reactors' cores to remove decay heat, which continues after fission has ceased. The earthquake generated a 14-meter-high tsunami that swept over the plant's seawall and flooded the plant's lower grounds around the Units 1–4 reactor buildings with sea water, filling the basements and knocking out the emergency generators. The resultant loss-of-coolant accidents led to three nuclear meltdowns, three hydrogen explosions, and the release of radioactive contamination in Units 1, 2 and 3 between 12 and 15 March. The spent fuel pool of previously shut-down Reactor 4 increased in temperature on 15 March due to decay heat from newly added spent fuel rods, but did not boil down sufficiently to expose the fuel.
In the days after the accident, radiation released to the atmosphere forced the government to declare an ever larger evacuation zone around the plant, culminating in an evacuation zone with a 20-kilometer radius. All told, some 154,000 residents evacuated from the communities surrounding the plant due to the rising off-site levels of ambient ionizing radiation caused by airborne radioactive contamination from the damaged reactors.
Large amounts of water contaminated with radioactive isotopes were released into the Pacific Ocean during and after the disaster. Michio Aoyama, a professor of radioisotope geoscience at the Institute of Environmental Radioactivity, has estimated that 18,000 terabecquerel (TBq) of radioactive caesium 137 were released into the Pacific during the accident, and in 2013, 30 gigabecquerel (GBq) of caesium 137 were still flowing into the ocean every day. The plant's operator has since built new walls along the coast and also created a 1.5-kilometer-long "ice wall" of frozen earth to stop the flow of contaminated water.
While there has been ongoing controversy over the health effects of the disaster, a 2014 report by the United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR) and World Health Organization projected no increase in miscarriages, stillbirths or physical and mental disorders in babies born after the accident. An ongoing intensive cleanup program to both decontaminate affected areas and decommission the plant will take 30 to 40 years, plant management estimate.
On 5 July 2012, the National Diet of Japan Fukushima Nuclear Accident Independent Investigation Commission (NAIIC) found that the causes of the accident had been foreseeable, and that the plant operator, Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO), had failed to meet basic safety requirements such as risk assessment, preparing for containing collateral damage, and developing evacuation plans. At a meeting in Vienna three months after the disaster, the International Atomic Energy Agency faulted lax oversight by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, saying the ministry faced an inherent conflict of interest as the government agency in charge of both regulating and promoting the nuclear power industry. On 12 October 2012, TEPCO admitted for the first time that it had failed to take necessary measures for fear of inviting lawsuits or protests against its nuclear plants.
Scholars gathered together at the Pequot Museum on Friday & Saturday, Oct. 18 & 19, for the 17th Century American Northeast Conference to reexamine the complexity of a changing cultural landscape and the consequences of colonization and warfare.
A consequence of over-fishing the third-world way. This was in The Gambia and we were staying not far from a fishing village. Whatever they hadn't sold by the end of one day, went out on the boats the next and they simply threw it overboard and fished anew. Enormous quantities of wasted life washed up on the beaches sometimes.

The delayed implementation of the SLCP control measures presented in the Time to Act publication could have negative consequences on temperature rise. Due to the relatively short lifetimes of SLCPs climate benefits could be achieved quickly after mitigation of emissions.

I unintentionally saw two ospreys fledge today; for the first time in my 9 year career. A totally awesome experience! One chick flew down onto the marsh and landed in a small ditch. We found it and put it back in the nest. Here is a photo after putting i

Óveður sem geysaði hér í firðinum sprengdi varamannaskýlin á Grundarfjarðarvelli. Þau voru byggð síðasta vor og náðu því ekki að endast í heilt ár.
We have a washer dryer, but we have not actually used the dryer for
almost 6 months now. When we swim he'd over to drying our clothes on a
line two amazing discoveries were made.
1. Our clothes take only 20 minutes to dry on the line as opposed to 1
hour in the dryer.
2. Our power bill dropped I less than 20 a month only 120KWhrs.
Another consequence of a 60 mph wind and a large rotted tree . This was the top of a power pole. Notice the street signs lying on the grass in the background.
The consequences of a sparrowhawk flying over the flash in front of the Inner Marsh Farm hide at Burton Mere Wetlands. The black-tailed godwit are looking alert and ready to go but as usual the lapwing were the first to leave.
There are also a couple of ruff (one in flight) in the shot. The ducks are teal.
One consequence of having tried to avoid well known photographic locations is that - paradoxically - one's own offerings can become a bit repetitive when assembling a collection like this if, like me, you relied on favourite local haunts. So, that's my excuse for showing my interpretation of a well known view for the Edinburgh to Fort William Sleeper Train in 2006. The area around Achallader has scenery as stunning as any to be found in in Scotland - as worthy a backdrop as any for a Class 37!
