Au niveau ornitho, ce voyage au Népal aura été riche, le Pygargue nain faisait partie des « coches » et des rêves …. Et puis ce matin du 5 Mars 2017 s’annonçait bien, un temps superbe, 2 heures sur une pirogue pour profiter du calme et certainement quelques oiseaux ! Quand il s’est posé, personne n’a pensé qu’on allait tomber sur un Pygargue nain ! Dinesh, notre guide cria « Lesser-Fish eagle », il n’arrêtait pas de prononcer son nom en disant que c’était possible mais on le voyait tellement peu.
Il est resté peu de temps, quelques secondes quelques coups d’ailes ….
Juvénile, probablement 1 an ou un peu plus, ssp plumbea, classé NT (near threatened) par l’IUCN et Birdlife, classé CITES II, population totale entre 15 000 et 50 000 individus (estimation 2011) mais en décroissance rapide due à la croissance démographique, les pesticides, la déforestation.

On the birdwatching side, this Nepal trip has been rich, the Lesser-Fish eagle was in our dream « lifers » … And then this 2017 March 5 morning seemed to start well, nice weather, 2 hours on a canoe enjoying quite atmosphere and birds probably ! When he perched, nobody thought we could met a Lesser-Fish eagle ! Dinesh, our guide cried « Lesser-Fish eagle », he didn’t stop to pronounce his name explaining he was possible but so rare.
He stayed a few time, some seconds some wing beats …
Juvenile, approximatively 1 year or little bit more, ssp plumbea, classified NT (near threatened) by IUCN and Birdlife, CITES II, total population between 15 000 and 50 000 individuals (2011 estimate) but decreasing quite fast due to demographic growth, pesticids, deforestation.

I am doing a landslide mapping and volume estimation of a massive landslide event that took place on 14th March 2019 in a place named Chimanimani in Zimbabwe due to cyclone Idai. This catastrophic event claimed 139 lives and millions of dollars of property damages in the Chimanimani district. Zimbabwe is one of the less resourceful countries on technological and financial fronts. Therefore, unfortunately, no scientific initiative has been taken so far to map these landslides due to a lack of proper resources. My objective is to map these landslides using artificial intelligence and high-resolution Satellite imagery and estimate the volume of materials generated due to the event. I am currently working on developing some Machine learning-based models for this task and have presented one of the models (presumably the best one in the lot) in this infographic poster. Further, I plan to make the data publicly available once I publish a scientific paper out of it. This data will be of enormous help to the local authority to identify the landslide-prone zones in the region in order to develop a landslide hazard mitigation plan to minimize the impact of such events in the future and save lives. Also, erosions during landslide events can play a pivotal role in the modification of a landscape and can rapidly alter the land use pattern of an area. So far, my analysis has revealed that this landslide event has generated 1000 times more material than the normal sediment yield in the area (per year) and hence, has the potential to make an adverse impact on the environment, geology, land use, and most importantly lives of the people of this region.

Dihl and Guérhard Manufactory
Paris, 1781 - about 1824
About 1805 - 1815
Unglazed porcelain, gilt bronze
Purchase, F. Cleveland Morgan Fund
Inventory 2014.57-58
These two impressive examples of the production of porcelain called Paris under the First Empire represent the allegories of Truth and Stregth. At the time, Christopher Dihl ran one of the main manufactories rivalling the famous productions of Sèvres in the estimation of high society and the court - notably the Empress Josephine. Dihl distinguished himself by the quality of his biscuit groups. Our two biscuits - elegant, perfect illustrations of Neoclassical taste under the Empire - were made to decorate the residence of one of the most important figures at court, Marshal Alexandre Berthier, Grand Master of the Hunt of the Imperial Household, Minister of War and lifelong friend and companion of the Emperor, whom he served as military advisor. A posthumous inventory of his belongings describes our two sculptures and shows that, despite their identical bases, they were not originally considered a pair.
Strength, described as "a biscuit representing a seated Warrior, on a biscuit base with gilt ornamentation," occupied pride of place on a hearth of the Marshal-Prince's grand parade chamber, while Truth is mentioned in the pantry of the mansion's dining room, as a decor element for another fireplace. The iconography associated with the two figures recalls the earlier traditions depicting virtues and allegories. Strength borrowed its costume and arm from Hercules: club, armour, helmet, and the skin of the Nemean lion. Truth, on the other hand, is a young girl simply but elegantly garbed and coiffed, whose main attibute is the mirror that reflects her true likeness.
Not authorised action on the Lubjansky area in Moscow, on December, 15th,2012, Russia. By different estimations, has gathered from 700 to five-seven thousand persons, they have assigned flowers to the Solovetsky stone in memory to victims of reprisals as representatives of opposition and the city mayoralty did not manage to co-ordinate a route of "freedom March", planned for December, 15th.
Несанкционированная акция на Лубянской площади в Москве, 15 декабря 2012 года. По разным оценкам, собралось от 700 до пяти-семи тысяч человек, они возложили цветы к Соловецкому камню в память жертвам репрессий, поскольку представителям оппозиции и мэрии города не удалось согласовать маршрут "Марша свободы", запланированного на 15 декабря.
This is a Palo Pinto County survey map from 1879.
After converting from JPEG2000 to PNG, it was 106 Mb.
I downsized this to 863 KB, and highlighted the approximate
location of the J.N. Stuart Ranch, running north from Strawn, Texas.
The highlighted section in blue, is actually one survey section, or one square mile.
J. N. Stuart's Ranch is not actually listed on this map. I don't know the exact time frame involved in this survey and map, issued in 1879. J.N. Stuart began buying property in 1874, after living with his new wife for 14 years, in Strawn. They built their permanent house in 1874. They had worked the cattle business for about 15 years, before buying land, in addition to what J. N. Stuart's father started with, in 1859.
His ranch grew and became 2 sections wide, by 12 sections, in my estimation. A very large ranch.
That's 50 acres by 300 acres, in my estimation. Which totals 15,000 acres, as reported.
That's about 2 miles by 12 miles. Or, 24 square miles.
He and his four sons ran the enterprise. His sons were Thomas Burton, Joseph Peter, William Bethel, and Sallie James.
Joseph Peter Stuart, married Julia Record, and one of their sons, Joseph Henry, was my grandfather, on my mother's side. My mother Mary Joan Stuart, was also born in Strawn, Texas.
I love thrift shops (cue Macklemore) because of this! Estimation: 15 pounds! I'll weigh it at home and post actual weight. Will post in 10-20 minutes! Ps, I saw a silver or gold brick (couldn't tell!)
I tried Coldstone's Sweet Cream Cupcake. I still don't have a complete grasp of how much i liked it. I should have a better estimation in the next 24 hours. (I get really critical at first..so i have to step back)
What I can tell you.
Look: Very cute. brown chocolate bottom is shiny and doesn't melt when you hold it.
Cupcake part: I didn't think there was enough. It wasn't amazing nor horrible. I think it tastes similiar to their shortcake mix-in
Sweet Cream Flavor: thought it was too bland. Next time i'd get a chocolate ice cream. Too much vanilla that wasn't strong enough for me.
Packaging: I was under the impression that my box of six included all three of those flavors. I was really disappointed when I just got sweet cream cupcakes.
Ice Cream: good. made me want to buy a whole ice cream treat afterwards
Whipped Cream/Frosting top: Good. It had a hint of buttercream flavor which i liked
Overall: these fall apart easily so you should eat them with a spoon. it didn't fulfill my ice cream craving or cupcake craving. it left me right in the middle. I wanted to buy a real cupcake and get some coldstone ice cream. go figure.
But...like I said this is my initial reaction. I may feel different tomorrow.

The picture above is of an enormous composting pile next to the Research Greenhouse at UMD. From my estimation it is about 7 ft tall, and 8 ft wide. People bring any soil, plants, or food left over from their research at the greenhouse and they throw it into the compost pile. Composting is the natural process of decomposition of plants and food into organic matter that can fertilize plants and soil. While everything alive decomposes eventually, composting speeds up the process because the heat from the dead material stacked in a heap speeds up the metabolic process and creates an ideal environment for bacteria and fungus (Hu). Decomposition is the first stage of nutrient recycling of plant or animal bodies, where dead tissue is broken down and turned into simpler organic forms. Decomposers are the animals (such as earthworms and maggots), fungus, or bacteria that aid in the decomposition process (Featherstone et al.).
Composting relates to Sustainable Development Goal 12: Ensure Sustainable Consumption and Production Patterns- meaning that we need to minimize our use of natural resources, and cut down on the waste and pollutants we produce (United Nations). By composting, you are taking what many people would throw out in the trash, and instead of producing waste, you turn it into something beneficial to plants and soils. Which also rids the need to buy fertilizer and cuts down on consumption.

Kyoto ou Kyōto Prononciation du titre dans sa version originale Écouter (京都市, Kyōto-shi?, littéralement « ville capitale ») est une ville japonaise de la région du Kansai, au centre de Honshū. Elle fut de 794 à 1868 la capitale impériale du Japon, sous le nom de Heian-kyō ("Capitale de la paix et de la tranquillité"). Elle est aujourd'hui la capitale de la préfecture de Kyoto ainsi que l'une des grandes villes de la zone métropolitaine Keihanshin (Osaka-Kobe-Kyoto). Sa population est de 1,47 million d'habitants (estimations 2015).
Bien que des preuves archéologiques permettent d'affirmer que les premiers hommes, présents sur les îles du Japon, il y a plus de 50 000 ans comme chasseurs-cueilleurs, furent ensuite parmi les premiers potiers du monde dès le XVe millénaire av. J.-C., la région de Kyoto ne fut peuplée qu'à partir du VIIe siècle par le clan Hata venu de Corée. Au cours du VIIIe siècle, voulant s'éloigner de l'influence du clergé bouddhiste au sein du gouvernement impérial, l'Empereur prit la décision de déplacer la capitale depuis l'actuelle Nara vers une région éloignée de cette influence.
La nouvelle ville, Heiankyō (lit. « la capitale de la Paix ») devint le siège de la cour impériale en 794. Plus tard, la ville fut rebaptisée Kyoto (« la ville capitale »). Elle développa deux quartiers spécifiques : le quartier sud où se situait le palais impérial et la cour ; le quartier où le Shogun Yoshimitsu Ashikaga plaça en 1378 sa résidence dans le 'Hana no Gosho' (ou Muromachi-dono, Karasumaru-dono) du quartier de Muromachi. Cela donnera par ailleurs le nom de la Période Muromachi de l'histoire de l'archipel. Le shogun se fit également construire le Pavillon d'Or Kinkaku-ji dans le nord de la ville. Par la suite, la ville fut véritablement dévastée par les armées lors de la guerre d'Onin, abandonnée en grande partie par ses habitants et livrée au pillage de 1467 à 1477. En 1489, le shogun Yoshimasa Ashikaga se fit construire l'une des merveilles architecturales du Japon : le Pavillon d'Argent (Ginkaku-ji) qui voulait rivaliser avec le Pavillon d'Or construit par son grand-père Yoshimitsu Ashikaga.
L'avènement du shogunat Tokugawa en 1600 fit perdre à Kyoto son rôle de centre politique et administratif au profit d'Edo, lieu de résidence des shoguns. Toutefois, Kyoto resta la capitale impériale du Japon jusqu'au transfert de la résidence de l'Empereur à Edo en 1868, lors de la restauration de Meiji. Après qu'Edo fut rebaptisée Tokyo (signifiant « la capitale de l'Est »), Kyoto fut connue peu de temps sous le nom de Saikyō (« la capitale de l'Ouest »).
Epargnée par les bombardements de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, Kyoto échappa de peu à la destruction atomique, car la ville figurait en tête des cibles désignées par le comité des objectifs américain. La ville fut finalement rejetée à la suite de l'intervention du secrétaire de la Guerre des États-Unis Henry Lewis Stimson et de conseillers, dont le Français Serge Elisseeff, qui connaissaient la richesse culturelle de la ville, et estimèrent que sa destruction serait un obstacle grave à une réconciliation ultérieure avec le Japon.
Les monuments historiques de l'ancienne Kyoto (villes de Kyoto, Uji et Ōtsu) ont été inscrits au patrimoine mondial de l'Unesco en 1994. En 1997, Kyoto accueillit la conférence qui donna naissance au Protocole de Kyoto.
Kyoto (京都市 Kyōto-shi, pronounced [kʲoːꜜto] (About this sound listen), pronounced [kʲoːtoꜜɕi] (About this sound listen); UK: /kɪˈoʊtoʊ/, US: /kiˈoʊ-/, or /ˈkjoʊ]) is a city located in the central part of the island of Honshu, Japan. It has a population close to 1.5 million. Formerly the Imperial capital of Japan for more than one thousand years, it is now the capital city of Kyoto Prefecture located in the Kansai region, as well as a major part of the Kyoto-Osaka-Kobe metropolitan area. Kyoto is also known as the thousand-year capital.

When the dispatcher gets a call from the insurance company's estimation yard, they don't know what condition it is in. On the weekend at night shift we don't have any flat decks on duty until Monday morning. Initially I was going to refuse this call and leave it for a flat deck. But since it was slow for the moment, I decided to give it a try.
At night time, the insurance company allows us access to the lot through an access card system. The catch is, you only have 20 min. to get in and out before an alarm goes to the security company and they send a guard and charge the towing company for the guard showing up. Some drivers will drive in to drop off a car, drive out the gate to log their times, then drive back in to load a different car out.
I drove in, located the car, hummed and haw-ed for 5 min., loaded up on dollies and was out the gate in under the 20 min.
Oh, yeah, took this picture before I left too.
Je suis allé en 2009 à la tristement célèbre prison S-21 à Phnom Penh, Cambodge. C'était extrêmement triste. Selon moi, la sentence aurait dû être "Prison à vie" pour ce monstre.
I have visited in 2009 the sadly famous prison S-21 in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. It was extremely sad. In my opinion, the sentence should have been "Life imprisonment" for this monster.
Tuol Sleng - Le musée de Tuol Sleng est un ancien lycée (Tuol Svay Prey : la colline du manguier sauvage) situé à Phnom Penh, la capitale du Cambodge, qui a été transformé par les Khmers rouges en centre de détention, de torture et d'exécution entre 1975 et 1979. Le lycée avait alors comme nom secret prison de Sécurité 21 ou S-21. Sur les 17 000 à 20 000 prisonniers de Tuol Sleng, personne ne s'est échappé. À la libération du camp, il y avait sept survivants. De 1975 à 1979, quelques 17.000 personnes ont été incarcérées à Tuol Sleng (selon certaines estimations le nombre serait aussi élevé que 20.000, bien que le nombre réel est inconnu). À tout moment, il se trouvait dans la prison entre 1 000-1 500 prisonniers. Ils ont été torturés à plusieurs reprises et contraints de nommer des membres de leur famille et de leurs proches collaborateurs, qui ont été à leur tour arrêtés, torturés et tués. Dans les premiers mois de l’ouverture de S-21, la plupart des victimes étaient de l'ancien régime de Lon Nol et incluait des soldats, des responsables gouvernementaux, ainsi que des universitaires, médecins, enseignants, étudiants, ouvriers, moines, ingénieurs, etc. Ultérieurement, la paranoïa de la direction du parti se tourna contre ses propres rangs et des purges dans tout le pays ont amené des milliers de militants du parti et leur famille à Tuol Sleng et il furent par la suite assassinés. Parmi les personnes arrêtées figuraient même les plus élevés politiciens de la hiérarchie communiste comme Khoy Thun, Vorn Vet et Nim Hu. Bien que la raison officielle de leur arrestation fût «espionnage», ces hommes peuvent avoir été vu par le chef des Khmers rouges, Pol Pot, comme dirigeants potentiels d'un coup d'Etat contre lui. Les familles des prisonniers ont souvent été regroupées en masse pour y être interrogées et, plus tard, assassinées au centre d'extermination Choeung Ek (Champ d’extermination) .
Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum - The Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum is a museum in Phnom Penh, the capital of Cambodia. The site is a former high school which was used as the notorious Security Prison 21 (S-21) by the Khmer Rouge regime from its rise to power in 1975 to its fall in 1979. Tuol Sleng means "Hill of the Poisonous Trees" or "Strychnine Hill". On the 17 000 to 20 000 prisonners of Tuol Sleng, no one has ever escaped. At the liberation, there were only 7 survivors. From 1975 to 1979, an estimated 17,000 people were imprisoned at Tuol Sleng (some estimates suggest a number as high as 20,000, although the real number is unknown). At any one time, the prison held between 1,000-1,500 prisoners. They were repeatedly tortured and coerced into naming family members and close associates, who were in turn arrested, tortured and killed. In the early months of S-21's existence, most of the victims were from the previous Lon Nol regime and included soldiers, government officials, as well as academics, doctors, teachers, students, factory workers, monks, engineers, etc. Later, the party leadership's paranoia turned on its own ranks and purges throughout the country saw thousands of party activists and their families brought to Tuol Sleng and murdered. Those arrested included some of the highest ranking communist politicians such as Khoy Thoun, Vorn Vet and Hu Nim. Although the official reason for their arrest was "espionage", these men may have been viewed by Khmer Rouge leader Pol Pot as potential leaders of a coup against him. Prisoners' families were often brought en masse to be interrogated and later murdered at the Choeung Ek extermination center (Killing fields).
