Mapa del "Atlas General de Cuba" de 1971. Editado por el Instituto Cubano de Geodesia y CartografÃa.
Este mapa es otra reconstrucción histórica de la vegetación original de la isla de Cuba en su estado virgen pre colonización española. AL igual que el mapa anterior, este está basado en estudios de suelos y toponmÃa (ciencia de los nombres)
Santa Clara estarÃa situada en los lÃndes de la bolsa naranja # 23 hacia el centro de la imágen, con partes de la ciudad sobre zona #12 (color verde oscuro)
12- Bosque Semideciduo Mesófilo TÃpico
23- Vegetación xeromorfa sobre serpentina (Cuabal)
High Altitude Ballooning III: Predicted path and landing site. Not a very straight line this time, but only 22 miles away compared to 150+ for the previous launch
A Map of the Lower Blackfoot Ecosystem Analysis at the Watershed Scale that displays Bureau of Land Management ownership in 1984. In the 1970s, the Missoula Field Office was part of a visionary team that established the Blackfoot Challenge to coordinate resource management across all ownerships in the Blackfoot watershed, which resulted in a plan to acquire the private timberlands into public ownership. In the mid-90s, the BLM owned only 40 acres of land on the Blackfoot River.
A two day trip to visit Erik. Started out early Sunday morning and took only secondary roads; had it all to myself. Nice and warm, blue skies - what more do you need?
Together we explored the northern part of Langeland Monday before I went home again. Took secondary roads all the way back too and arrived home around 9 in the evening.
Scientists used GPS data collected from ocean drifters during Hurricane Isaac with a coupled atmosphere-wave-ocean model to better understand how hurricanes affect upper ocean circulation. The researchers found that hurricane-induced Stokes drift (wind-wave-driven water mass transport) created a cyclonic rotational flow to the storm’s left and an anticyclonic rotational flow to its right. Stokes drift accounted for more than 20% of the average current’s velocity and changed its direction up to 90 degrees, significantly enhancing shoreward upper ocean transport on the storm’s right side. The team estimated that the spread rate for these surface flows was 6 times larger than before the storm, a significant deviation from recognized measurements of lateral dispersion during non-hurricane conditions. The scientists published their findings in Geophysical Research Letters: Hurricane-induced ocean waves and stokes drift and their impacts on surface transport and dispersion in the Gulf of Mexico.

From the box base:
Pieter van den Keere (c. 1571-c. 1645) was a Flemish engraver, publisher and globe maker who came to England as a Protestant refugee. Settling in Amsterdam in 1593, he continued to work and began engraving a series of miniature county maps for the British Isles Atlas in 1599. His works also include a map of Ireland, urban panoramas of Utrecht, Cologne, Amsterdam and Paris, as well as a collection of world maps Van den Keere's work here was actually based on a1594 world map by Petrus Plancius (1552-1622). Plancius was a notable figure of the Netherlandish school of cartography and geography in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.
After the fiasco of the 2K Jumbo puzzle with missing pieces, this made a pleasant remedy. Edges and top and bottom colourful scenes were completed first, followed by the yellow circular lines. That left the two maps themselves to assemble. Finished yesterday evening.
After completion I did a double-check to make sure we'd not done this one before (they all look the same to me!). Sure enough, we've made this image although not this particular version. In my wooden puzzle stash I have a Nautilus purchased last year through eBay...
Danger Ted in Exeter pointing out a couple of streets on the "You Are Here" map of interest to a bear and his Big Pal. DT still can't fathom how these maps always know where he is. Nor why a police car drove past very slowly whilst he was getting this selfie took.

This is the mind-map that outlines the presentation that Renee Alexander, Chris Noble and I gave at BlogWorld 2010
Plenty of room on the inside, including a compartment for up to a 100 oz hydration reservoir such as this Camelbak.

I just found this on the global site of LG Electronics (http://www.lge.com/general/lg_globalsite.jsp). This map links to the separate LG country sites, sorted by regions. Call me a total nerd, but check this out:
Instead of a reunified Germany, I'm seeing a thick border still running between former East Germany and West Germany (I grew up in East Germany, and I can testify that the reunification did happen.....17 years ago); instead of the Czech Republic and Slovakia, I still see the former Czechoslovakia (which ceased to exist more than 14 years ago...); the CIS is not a nation, it's a commonwealth of sovereign states - the LG map shows the former Soviet Union including the three Baltic states (that never belonged to the CIS but are members of the European Union) and Turkmenistan (which withdrew from the Commonwealth of Independent States in 2005). And: Since there's no separate LG country site for Iceland, I'm not going to mention that Iceland actually belongs to Europe and not to North America (Iceland gets tinted, too, when you roll over North America).
It appears that LG doesn't seem to acknowledge the global political situation after 1990. Sweet, sweet Cold War.
I actually kinda like these little bugs on the map if they just weren't of such a scandalous shame for a global company like LG. Nonetheless I tried to send them a mail thru their "Contact Us" mail form to suggest a slight revise of this map (hint, hint!), but their mail form was so badly coded that - after trying three times - I wasn't able to deliver the message to LG.
So let's just leave LG as the Sleeping Beauty and enjoy the good ol' times before the events of 1989.
