Faulted sandstone from the Jurassic of Wyoming, USA.
Faults are quite common in orogenic belts. Faults are defined as fractures in rocks along which differential displacement has occurred. Dip-slip faults are those involving movement of rocks in non-horizontal directions. Strike-slip faults involve movement of rocks in horizontal directions.
The two common types of dip-slip faults are normal faults and reverse faults. Normal faults form by extensional stress. Reverse faults form by compressional stress.
Locality: unrecorded/undisclosed site at or near the town of Guernsey, eastern Wyoming, USA
Most people probably think California is the only State with fault lines and earthquakes. This is a fault line in Sedona, AZ that runs just about north/south. Check out the next picture that really shows the movement!
I grilled the seabream, but I didn't put much attention to it and so it became a mess. Grrrrr. Probably my own fault. Next tim I will patdry the fish again, just before throwing it in the grillpan. And I won't make those slices anymore. I don't know what got into me, because I never do. :-)
But anyway, the slices and belly were rubbed with a paste made of garlic, coriander, seasalt and some olive oil.
The recipe for the Potato Salad is here.
The green salad I kept very simple, just a bag of mixed lettuce, onion, cherry tomato, parmesan and a dressing of olive oil, lemon, honey, peper, salt.
This is really something I would not have prepared a year ago. :-)
Although I still don't think salads are that healthy (little vegetable, lots of oil/dressing) and this one is ridiculously simple, I'm learning to appreciate just that simplicity. Especially when the lead is going to something else. In this case the fish.
These sandstone rock formations, created by compression and shearing along the San Andreas Fault. Cajon Pass is a mountain pass between the San Bernardino Mountains and the San Gabriel Mountains in Southern California
The spectacular white arkosic hogbacks called Mormon Rocks are part of the Cajon Valley Beds.
Both arkosic units sit unconformably on a marine
formation that had been referred to the San Franscisquito. Woodburne and Golz (1972) pointed out the
lithologic differences in the underlying marine formation, and the presence of an elasmosaur relegated
the Cajon portion of those beds to a Cretaceous age (Lucas and Reynolds, 1991). Woodburne and Golz
(1972) demonstrated that the age of the Devils Punchbowl arkose was late Miocene (Clarendonian–
Hemphillian NALMA), while vertebrate fossils in the Cajon Valley beds were middle Miocene
(Hemingfordian–Barstovian NALMA).

Mormon Rocks Interpertive Trail is a 1 mile loop trail located near San Bernardino, California that offers scenic views and is good for all skill levels. Named after Mormon pioneers and freighters who completed their trip across the Mojave in 1851 on they way to the lush and fertile valley of San Bernardino...Gold was discovered in nearby Bear Valley and Holcomb valley turning San Bernardino into a typical Wild West town of pioneers.
This image shows part of the western flank of Pavonis Mons. The linear features are faults. Faulting usually includes change of elevation, where blocks of material slide down the fault. Paired faults are call graben. The large depression is a graben, whereas most of the other faults are not paired. The rougher looking materials perpendicular to the faults are lava flows. "Downhill" is toward the upper left corner of the image.

Pavonis Mons is one of the three aligned Tharsis Volcanoes. The four Tharsis volcanoes are Ascreaus Mons, Pavonis Mons, Arsia Mons, and Olympus Mars. All four are shield type volcanoes. Shield volcanoes are formed by lava flows originating near or at the summit, building up layers upon layers of lava. The Hawaiian islands on Earth are shield volcanoes. The three aligned volcanoes are located along a topographic rise in the Tharsis region. Along this trend there are increased tectonic features and additional lava flows.
Pavonis Mons is the smallest of the four volcanoes, rising 14 km above the mean Mars surface level with a width of 375 km. It has a complex summit caldera, with the smallest caldera deeper than the larger caldera. Like most shield volcanoes the surface has a low profile. In the case of Pavonis Mons the average slope is only 4 degrees.
NASA's Mars Odyssey spacecraft has spent over 15 years in orbit around Mars, circling the planet more than 69,000 times. It holds the record for longest working spacecraft at Mars. THEMIS, the IR/VIS camera system, has collected data for the entire mission and provides images covering all seasons and lighting conditions.
Over the years many features of interest have received repeated imaging, building up a suite of images covering the entire feature. From the deepest chasma to the tallest volcano, individual dunes inside craters and dune fields that encircle the north pole, channels carved by water and lava, and a variety of other feature, THEMIS has imaged them all.
For the next several months the image of the day will focus on the Tharsis volcanoes, the various chasmata of Valles Marineris, and the major dunes fields. We hope you enjoy these images!

Not Your Fault by: AWOLNATION
I'm a fight with myself
Till I'm bleeding.
Just a taste of your skin
Starts the healing.
Anyone from my past
Get your ammo.
Find my sun in the dark side
Of my shadow.
This love found us
Now I see it.
This love up down.
Please believe.
Baby, when I'm yellin' at you,
It's not your fault
It's not your fault, yeah and
Baby cause I'm crazy for you,
It's not your fault
It's not your fault, yeah
Maybe I'm a little confused,
It's not your fault
It's not your fault, yeah and
Baby, it a wonderful muse.
It's not your fault
It's not your fault, yeah
We had a rush job starting on Wednesday afternoon. we had to load 400 tonnes of cast out in a few hours, we already had 50 tonnes of steel booked out so we had 18 44 tonners to load ASAP. We worked until dark on Wednesday and started early on Thursday. Unfortunately the light was terrible for most of the time, very dull and darkness approaching or very dull with daylight getting better as the morning progressed. I had to wind the ISO up to be able to freeze the action when the wagons were reversing into position or coming back to the weighbridge loaded. In the middle of this Myers delivered a container and we were pretty congested by then.
The Sennebogen with magnet decided to burn a little plug out due to water ingress, this stopped us for 30 minutes as we found the fault and I found a temporary work around. We couldn't travel or slew - you couldn't have made it up. We couldn't move to get the grab in and we couldn't slew so we couldn't load with five wagons still to load.
I had an electrician here at seven this morning for a permanent repair.
As darkness fell on Wednesday Mark Kendrew turned up in his new Scania R620 V8, this wagon as been around getting sprayed etc. for most (all?) of this year and I've been waiting to see it. Unfortunately conditions weren't good but I'm OK with what I got, hopefully there'll be a next time. A very smart motor with a lot of extras fitted.

Arriva in Italia, per un solo imperdibile appuntamento, la nuova stella del pop. Bebe Rexha è sul palco del Fabrique di Milano il 9 maggio.
Bebe Rexha, pseudonimo di Bleta Rexha, è una cantautrice statunitense di origine albanese.
Bebe Rexha è la nuova promessa della musica pop mondiale. Talentuosa autrice di canzoni pop, si è distinta nel panorama musicale contemporaneo firmando hit (come autrice e featured artist) come “Me, Myself and I” con il rapper G-Eazy nel 2015 e “In The Name of Love” con Martin Garrix nel 2016.
Bebe Rexha ha anche firmato come autrice la hit planetaria “The Monster” di Eminem e Rihanna (canzone vincitrice del Grammy Award nel 2015). Sempre nel 2016 è uscito il suo singolo “No Broken Hearts” con Nicki Minaj e “I Got You”, il singolo trainante del suo secondo EP “All Your Fault Pt.I”, uscito su etichetta Warner Music il 17 febbraio 2017. Entro la fine dell’anno è previsto il proseguo dal titolo “All Your Fault Pt.II”.
Fra le collaborazioni si ricordano anche quelle nell'album “Listen” di David Guetta (“Hey Mama” con Nicki Minaj e “Yesterday”).
Formed from the Bungarider Fault, one of three large faults in a NW-SE direction on the proprerty.
PS Breccia is an Italian word with the 'cc' presumably pronounced as in cappuccino (which would have been nice in the remote location!)
Water fills this seismic fault in the hills near San Francisco. Northern California comprises a number of "mini-continents" that have been slamming against the North American Plate for millions of years. While the San Andreas fault is the most well-known seismic feature of California, the faults created by movement of many smaller land masses are widely evident from the air.

Running the Nano to see how it works: the flow is irregular ( note the water column is pulsing) AND there is vibration (the clacking noise audible and the Nano is moving around)
This is just down the road from St. Andrews Abbey in Valyermo, near Pearblossom. I didn't know if I was supposed to feel safe on this side of the sign or the other. At this point, towards the left of the sign, you notice that a stream bed seems to follow the fault, but over the hill to the right, I didn't go look.
