In the arid, expansive landscape of Gode, in the Somali region of Ethiopia, Faduma stands beside her hut watching her goats eat grass. The animals are essential to her family.
Faduma came to live in this area in 2017 as a displaced person with her three children. After heavy rains and the flooding of the river Shabelle, she had lost her home, crops and livestock.
Normally, she would feed her children with the corn, sorghum and vegetables she grew along the river. With the income from selling the food she had left, she could buy other things. The situation for her family is now completely different.
55-year-old Faduma said: “We now depend on the income that my 18-year-old son earns from selling the firewood he collects. But it's not enough. We often have nothing to eat in the evening. The lack of rain and the arrival of the pandemic will only make the situation worse. Food and water were already scarce here, but now the costs for food and other basic necessities are also skyrocketing.”
As part of the livelihood project, the Dutch Relief Alliance has given Faduma seven goats and three sheep to support herself again. The animals are drought resistant and adapt easily to local conditions. In this community, livestock is highly valued, as they see it as a way to improve their lives: goats reproduce easily and are rich in milk and meat.
"I was very happy when I got the animals. Look, I collected grass to feed my livestock", Faduma points out. "When the rains come, they will reproduce. Then we will have enough milk and we can sell some of it so that we can buy the things we need on the market."
“When I'm thirsty, I drink water from the river,” Faduma says. Her entire community is dependent on the river that has water all year round. But a glance at the water makes it immediately clear that it is not the healthiest option: the cloudy water is full of bacteria and parasites. "I drink it like that because I don't have any chlorine or purification tablets."
“It takes two hours to get to the river and then another two hours to get back, to bring home water that makes you sick", adds Abdullahi, Faduma's neighbour. “I got sick from drinking the water.” The 65-year-old farmer is now dependent on his neighbours, who own a donkey cart, to provide him with the precious, but at the same time sickening liquid.
The DRA provided 120,000 litres of clean water to Faduma's community in three months so that people could drink water safely. The communal storage tank is next to Faduma's house.
"I was happy to hear the sound of the water flowing into the tank", Faduma says. "All the people in the community immediately came out with their jerry cans to collect that water. It is clean and tastes wonderfully sweet, you can drink it right away."

Ethiopia has been struggling with various crises for years. The East African country is being ravaged by a devastating locust infestation, flooding and, in some areas, persistent drought.
Also, the conflict in the northern Tigray region has been causing fear and insecurity for months.
Cordaid, together with other organisations within the Dutch Relief Alliance (DRA), provided emergency aid in Ethiopia in 2021. The DRA is a partnership of 14 Dutch aid organisations that supports people in the world's largest crisis areas with funding from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
By joining forces, the organisations can make a difference for people in emergency situations. In Ethiopia, Cordaid worked together with SOS Children's Villages, CARE, the Refugee Foundation and Tearfund.
In Ethiopia, the DRA organisations have handed out soap, water filters and hygiene kits; repaired and built new health centers; repaired and installed water facilities at clinics, schools and other public places; provided information about protection against corona; provided mental health care.
With these activities, the DRA has helped more than 276,000 people, through close collaboration with local organisations. The activities focused mainly on girls and women.

[About this Shoot: This is the 2nd article in a series of 3. On Jan 14th I highlighted David Brier - The Brand Elevator. For today's feature of his company DBD International, David wanted to stick with a theme of "defying gravity". We came up with the simple concept of the classic "is the glass half full or empty" analogy but the twist being the top half is full and the bottom is empty. He wanted to keep a retro, 50's style coloring to the theme. Be sure to check out the 3rd installment of David's book here on the 25th.]

Ramon Cruz (International Policy Program Director, Institute for Transportation and Development Policy) at the presentation of the Transport Outlook 2019 during the International Transport Forum’s 2019 Summit on “Transport Connectivity for Regional Integration” in Leipzig, Germany, on 23 May 2019.
These two combatants, who share a powerful hatred for each other, did show that they are capable of setting aside their differences for a common goal. In Round One, Ms. Aran and Ridley squared off against the Black Ops agents Solid Snake and Liquid Snake. Despite the agents best efforts, including the piloting of a nuclear powered mecha, Samus’ skill at facing enemies much larger than her came in handy as she and Ridley annihilated the two assassins with no real challenge. The final score: 5-0.
Round Two brought an interesting challenge as they went toe-toe with Mario and Bowser. In order to face the Sci-Fi Slaughterhouses, Bowser had to become Giga Bowser, a giant bloodthirsty being that thrives on destruction. Mario was given several powerups, including his pyrokinesis and ability to become liquid metal, among others. Still, even with those abilities added on, Samus and Ridley’s abilities and weaponry gave them a decided edge. The final score: 5-0 with Samus and Ridley dusting debris off their shoulders and moving on to the Championship.
Their opponents: Link and Ganondorf. This match was a little more interesting as it matched Fantasy VS Sci-Fi. Link’s weaponry and transformation allowed him to attack Ridley and hold his own for some time. Samus, no stranger to giant beasts, went toe to toe with Ganondorf in Ganon form. His energy attacks provided him some cover and defense against the she-tank. In the end, Link and his nemesis fell with a score of 5-1.
Semi-Finals. In one of the most spirited fights in the Playoff Challenge, Samus and Ridley went up against two more assassins. Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow. This was tough for both sides as the advanced weaponry of Samus and Ridley proved a deterrent to the ninjas. But, their versatility and agility allowed them to keep their distance until the right moment. However, Samus and Ridley’s combined brutality made sure that the right moment never came. In the end, Team Metroid rose to the top with a score of 5-4.
The moment of truth had arrived- The Final Showdown. Samus and Ridley would face the other undefeated team: Obi-Wan Kenobi and Darth Vader; two futuristic fighting teams squaring off in the original Dome. When the combatants entered the arena, no one could have foreseen the slaughter to come as Samus and Ridley promptly showed that faith in the Force was misplaced. In a stunning 5-1 victory, Samus and Ridley took the title of champion!
What a ride! Honestly, I can’t speak for everyone, but I never saw that coming. Samus and Ridley proved themselves an unstoppable machine of fury that pummeled their opponents and took the title. Well done, Team Metroid.

Couldn't agree more with that.

Freshwater mussel shells break down over time and make up the bottom of healthy rivers. The other mussel still has tissue in it, perhaps having died within just a few days(all pheasantshell).

I travel as much as I can when I am out and about archiving the places I visit, over the past few years I have covered most of the cemetery's in and around Aberdeen and the shire .
I archive any war graves I come across during these visits, making a point of capturing the plot whether it be a recognised CWGC stone or a family commissioned stone, my aim is to enable any family with loved ones who made the ultimate sacrifice find the stone recognising their contribution,rank etc and date of passing.
I have gathered hundreds of these photo in my archives, my initial post will have generic tags , name of cemetery with the date I visited, I revisit my posts when I have time and then add additional information like, name , rank etc.
War Graves - Trinity Cemetery Aberdeen Scotland - 24/9/18
Definition
The term "war grave" does not only apply to graves: ships sunk during wartime are often considered to be war graves, as are military aircraft that crash into water; this is particularly true if crewmen perished inside the vehicle. Classification of a war grave is not limited to the occupier's death in combat but includes military personnel who die while in active service: for example, during the Crimean War, more military personnel died of disease than as a result of enemy action.
A common difference between cemeteries of war graves and those of civilian peacetime graves is the uniformity of those interred. They generally died during a relatively short period, in a small geographic area and consist of service members from the few military units involved.
Jurisdiction
In Australia, the Office of Australian War Graves controls the maintenance of war cemeteries, plots, individual graves, post-war commemorations and battle exploit memorials.
In the Commonwealth of Nations, the Commonwealth War Graves Commission is responsible for the commemoration of 1.7 million deceased Commonwealth military service members at over 23,000 separate burial sites in 153 countries.
It operates through the financial support of six member states (United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, India and South Africa).
In Spain, war graves are protected by the Law 60/1962.
In the United Kingdom, 67 ship wrecks and all underwater military aircraft are "protected places" under the Protection of Military Remains Act 1986 which imposes restrictions on their exploration and marine salvage.
In the United States, war graves are managed within the United States National Cemetery System.
In popular culture
Rupert Brooke's 1914 poem, The Soldier - "If I should die, think only this of me: / That there's some corner of a foreign field / That is for ever England", is a patriotic poem about the possibility of dying abroad during a war. Brooke is himself buried in a war grave on Skyros in the Aegean Sea, having died while en route to fight in the Gallipoli Campaign.
The War Graves Photographic Project, founded in 2008, aims to create an archive of names and photographs of all military graves and memorials from 1914 to the present day from any nationality, although focus on Commonwealth soldiers.
The Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC) is an intergovernmental organisation of six independent member states whose principal function is to mark, record and maintain the graves and places of commemoration of Commonwealth of Nations military service members who died in the two World Wars. The Commission is also responsible for commemorating Commonwealth civilians who died as a result of enemy action during World War II.
The Commission was founded by Sir Fabian Ware and constituted through Royal Charter in 1917 named the Imperial War Graves Commission. The change to the present name took place in 1960.
The Commission, as part of its mandate, is responsible for commemorating all Commonwealth war dead individually and equally. To this end, the war dead are commemorated by name on a headstone, at an identified site of a burial, or on a memorial. War dead are commemorated uniformly and equally, irrespective of military or civil rank, race or creed.
The Commission is currently responsible for the continued commemoration of 1.7 million deceased Commonwealth military service members in 153 countries.
Since its inception, the Commission has constructed approximately 2,500 war cemeteries and numerous memorials.
The Commission is currently responsible for the care of war dead at over 23,000 separate burial sites and the maintenance of more than 200 memorials worldwide.
In addition to commemorating Commonwealth military service members, the Commission maintains, under arrangement with applicable governments, over 40,000 non-Commonwealth war graves and over 25,000 non-war military and civilian graves.
The Commission operates through the continued financial support of the member states: United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, India and South Africa. The current President of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission is Prince Edward, Duke of Kent.

Professor Pema Dorje, PhD. and curator of the Yeti Museum, is convinced that the Yeti is a real creature. Norbu and Bob, the proprietors of Himalayan Escapes, assure you that he is crazy and they don't agree with his opinions. Why not take a train ride and see who's right?

WOW!
What a difference.
I wish I had a b4 picture.
For way too many seasons these 2 chairs sat outside in The Heat, The Rain, The Sun, The Snow, and got-
weathered
The Steel was oxidized, its original coating long degraded. The Teak ( or Ipe ) wooden slats had faded and were in need of some sanding- major Grain Raising going on.
Good thing there's a Furniture Doctor in the Family!
After being taken apart and sitting in my shop for more than a Winter- I "finally" had the time (not necessarily a "good" thing) to get the Frames Sandblasted- and over to my new- favorite PowderCoater in Melrose Park,Il.
The wooden slats got sanded to a 180 grit- and wiped in an outdoor "deck Finish made from Rosewood Nut Oil- called Penofil-
WoW!
Now- they're too nice to leave outside!
!brute_force is an umbrella title for an ongoing research platform interrogating the premise that humans and nonhumans are no longer embedded in a dualist frame, but are instead levelled within the global infrastructure of the market economy and the techno-capitalist commodification of life. The work is set up as a grid where a human and a dog climb through a landscape of tiles, while their physiological data is captured and classified by an AI. By means of a generative procedure, gathered data has been translated into structural mesh patterns embedded in soft robotic morphologies. The robots enact the performativity of an evolutionary algorithm that transduces data into vectors and generates new deviations by applying a method for continually introducing as much difference into the system as possible. Through an extension of mutant values, the data eventually becomes an independent entity, pushing the soft robots towards the transformative potential of the algorithmic unknown.
