So, it's capping at the top, but in the lower right corner a flare? With the big hood I had on that day? And the sun angle behind me? Could be a leak of some sort, as it happened in at least two more photos.

"The Fault" by Viviane Silvers, a sculpture at Vanderbilt featuring a baby reaching out to a woman who's turning away sadly. Very strange.
週末去看了 The Fault in Our Stars, 電影開演前在二分之一的機會下, 我選擇了關閉手機.
描述癌末病人在 生活 友情 感情 及 親情 的故事, 流暢但不會煽情太過的劇情大致符合先前由網路評價中獲得的預期. 對於哭點很高的自己, 最難渡過的一段情節, 則是來自女主角 Hazel 與 她母親間的一段對話. Hazel 在十三歲時確診重症, 在加護病房中一度要放棄時, 聽見母親獨自哭著說 "失去了Hazel 自己就再也不是個母親了." Hazel 之後奇蹟地存活了下來, 並持續接受實驗性治療到了十八歲. 照料 Hazel 成了家人生活中的重心, 深怕在某個不經意的時刻會突然失去她. 某天, Hazel 因友人急事要趕著出門, 母親要求她先留下吃完晚餐, 在幾句爭執之後, Hazel 脫口而出說她自己也很擔心有天自己走了之後, 她的母親就再也不是一位母親, 頓失生活重心的那個她, 讓 Hazel 很放不下心. 結果 Hazel 的母親對她說 "自己永遠都會是一位母親, 因為無論 Hazel 在世或是走了, 自己永遠都是 Hazel 的母親." 人與人之間的連結, 真的是可以超越生死的界線的.
一開始說過, 電影開演前可以選擇讓手機靜音或是關機, 不濟的電池續航力讓我選擇了關機. 但每次在關機一段時間後再開機, 心裏頭都會帶著一點點緊張的心情. 很害怕自己在剛剛是不是錯過了重要的聯繫. 讓對自己很重要的人遍尋不著而心急如焚; 讓他們在需要自己的時候感到無助失落. 對於自己年邁的父母如此, 對於身旁重要的親人朋友也是如此. 也因此, 自己總是儘可能保持在隨時能回應這些心情的狀態裏. 如果有一段時間沒有訊息或是沒能開機, 在開機的時候其實會有點擔心, 直到發現沒有一堆未接來電後, 才能鬆一口氣.
再回到劇中另一段有點不同感想的劇情, 是關於男女主角 Guts 和 Hazel 千里遠赴荷蘭追星, 但卻被他們的作家偶像痛罵一頓說他們這種人從被確診的那天起, 就開始覺得這個世界對不起他們, 所有的人就都應該給他們更多的特權與關懷. 這段情節讓我想起之前看過的一個演說 "I’m not your inspiration". 在這個演說中提到對對 Physically or Mentally Challenged (原文用了 Disabled, 但我覺得並不是很好) 人士的最大障礙其實是來自於社會對待他們的方式. 很多時候, 他們只是被用來做為激勵一般人的工具. 當時運不濟或心理不平衡時, 很多人都會心想其實自己比起某些人來說, 自己還是很幸運地. 當一位行動不便的人在公開場合致辭, 人們反射性地會期待一個激勵人心的故事, 而不是他們可能的成就. 當他們只是完成一些其它人習以為常的事情時, 卻可能被視為是一種成就. 這份來自社會觀感上的不公平期待, 很多時候反而造成了他們的壓力. 當然我不是說要對他們漠不關心, 而是我們原本就應該關心每一位值得我們付出關懷的人. 這些關懷與幫助並不是憐憫, 而僅僅只是我們想要與人為善的一個部份. 每個人生來就都存在差異, 都有各自擅長與不擅長的部份. 每個人期待被關注著的, 都是他們在擅長的部份努力之後的傑出表現. 一位口足畫家被讚賞的, 應該是他作品的出色, 而不是他作畫的方式. 如果說, 他們只是因為用了不同的方式達成一般水準而獲得注目. 其實, 這其中很大的成份是這個社會利用了他們, 來激勵其它人去做得更好更努力. 這是一種虛偽的讚賞. 每個人的成就, 應該來自他們的努力 貢獻 與 表現, 而不是來自於他們的不同.
上班要大遲到了... 以下省略結論兩千字.
Beecher’s Fault, the Queens-based band cofounded by Ben Taylor ’10, returned to Boston in January 2014 to play at the Middle East Bar in Cambridge.
Looking down from Conic Hill along the Highland Boundary Fault, which is responsible for the series of islands on this stretch of Loch Lomond below.
in silence, faulted in speech. Aren't we?

This view up the fault plane emphasizes the undualtory nature of faults. What is the strike and dip of this fault?
Sometimes its the simple things that cause trouble.
After running into a misfire on Shane's Trueno this week, we found the culprit - The porcelin on one of the spark plugs was badly cracked. We specialise in fault finding, so if you have a niggly problem or your car isn't running right, let us find the problem for you.

Pilot Rock had a really great view that made up for the awful mood I was in right before we reached it.

The Bright Angel Fault inside The Grand Canyon, seen clearly running south and away from my position.
Incredible anticline and syncline along the San Andreas fault. You can see the sedimentary rock layer uplift.
Commemorating the 1906 San Andreas Quake. The fault runs through this point. The land to the left moved 9 feet (about 3 meters) northward during the quake. Farther than I can jump.
The valleys and mountain ridges here are caused by rotational block faulting. Huge blocks of the Earth's crust tip like seesaws; the east side going down to form the valley while the west side goes up forming a mountain range. Where two of these tipping blocks meet side by side, a fault is formed between them with the rising side of one shearing past the descending side of the other. Erosion wears down the mountain and deposits sediments in the valley, yet the faulting drops the valley faster than the sediments can fill it, thus creating this basin below sea level. Over millions of years, more than 9,000 feet of sand, silt, gravel and salt filled the valley, yet geologic forces are still at work. The fault scarp visible in this photo was created by a massive earthquake about 2,000 years ago that dropped Death Valley several feet. Another such event will lower the valley even farther below sea level.
