The Biggest and Brightest Full Moon of 2010
The weather was very cooperated, no wind and about 45 deg in Half Moon Bay

Full moon craziness
Many people think full moons cause strange behavior among animals and even humans. In fact several studies over the years have tried to tie lunar phases to births, heart attacks, deaths, suicides, violence, psychiatric hospital admissions and epileptic seizures, and more. Connections have been inclusive or nonexistent.
The moon does have some odd effects on our planet, and there are oodles of other amazing moon facts and misconceptions:
* A full moon at perigee also brings higher ocean tides. This tug of the moon on Earth also creates tides in the planet's crust, not just in the oceans.
* Beaches are more polluted during full moon, owing to the higher tides.
* In reality, there's no such thing as a full moon. The full moon occurs when the sun, Earth and the moon are all lined up, almost. If they're perfectly aligned, Earth casts a shadow on the moon and there's a total lunar eclipse. So during what we call a full moon, the moon's face is actually slightly less than 100 percent illuminated.

Helena's original freckles had become almost completely nonexistent after head swaps to two different bodies, so I retouched them while I had the watercolor pencils and fine tipped brushes out. They look very pronounced in this closeup, but in actual size and normal lighting they are only faintly visible. For me, as far as freckles are concerned, the lighter the better, since they end up getting magnified and darkened tenfold in photographs. I want her looking sun-kissed, not polka-dotted or like she's got chicken pox!

THE NEW GLOBAL CONSUMER: DOING BUSINESS IN A DIGITAL ECONOMY
The digital economy is no longer part of the economy. It is the economy. How can traditional brick-and-mortar firms reinvent themselves, their supply chains, and their marketplaces to avoid the fate of brands once thought of as everlasting but which are now nonexistent? And how are new platforms – from e-commerce to shared services – rewriting the rules of the game? A conversation on how businesses can manage expectations for digitally empowered customers, and how technology is being used to enhance the customer experience.

Escapade en train à Blåhammaren, dans le nord de la Suède, près de la frontier norvégienne.
Il est conseillé de savoir lire une carte et utiliser la boussole, car les sentiers ne sont pas bien marqués et on ne rencontre quasi personne ... le temps peut aussi changer brusquement : en qq minutes on passé de l'été à l'hiver avec de la neige (meme en plein mois de juillet).
Week-end close to the Norwegian border, in the north of Sweden, at Blåhammaren.
It is recommended to be able to read a map and use a compass because the paths are almost nonexistent ... the weather can also change within minutes going from Summer into Winter (with snow mid of July).
Camminata vicina al confine con la Norvegia, a Blåhammaren (2 giorni).
Saper leggere una mappa e utilizzare una bussola è d'obbligo perché i sentieri non si vedono bene. E non c'è molta gente da incontrare ! Subito il meteo può anche cambiare da estate a inverno con neve a metà luglio !

I'm gobsmacked by several things here. First, the light was nonexistent. Yet the Sony A7RII performed extremely well at incredibly high ISO. Second, using knowledge developed around a digital Zone System, I knew precisely where I wanted the tonal values and was able to place them accordingly. Third, I am happy to confirm the dynamic range of the sensor extends usefully to below Zone 0 (Zone -2!), even at such high ISO settings. Fourth, 1950s German optics can do the trick. These images were made using a triplet wide angle. Who would design such a thing and make it work? Micro-contrast is something to be seen, otherwise you wouldn't believe it.

Comment: Few plants known to me are more difficult to be photographed in the field as Asperula purpurea. It is small, very tender and its flowers have not much more than 1 mm in diameter. Its leaves can be less than 1 cm long and only a fraction of mm wide. Apparently, when it grows on sunny places it is specially small and tender. So, it shakes restlessly even if there is no observable wind. At the same time only macro photography can show its details. Since it is widely branched in all directions one would need considerable depth of field for sharp pictures. This is of cause nonexistent with macro work. Also focus stacking technique cannot be used, because the plant is in motion all the time.
This South European plant growing also on Balkan Peninsula, Carpathians and Apennines originally belonged to Galium genus, but was later repositioned to Asperula genus. All Asperula species growing in Slovenia are beautiful; however this beauty requires to be admired with a hand lens.

They didn't speak any Russian, and my Tajik was almost nonexistent at that time, but I knew enough to realise that "Surat" meant "photograph". They posed in front of the sturdy Volga sedan which had been carrying us through the mountains.
such a horrbile picture. warping and distortions and nonexistent composition, but the point is i cleaned my room (first time in a while)! it still looks messy but its alot better than before... i can actually get from one side to another now (and my desk is cleared of papers, which is very nice).
lets see how long i can keep it like this...
the vignetting is supposed to draw attention away from the really crooked door upper door frame, but it doesnt do that great of a job. and i almost crashed my computer stitching together this panorama. which was kinda surprising
Vintage West Bend metal salt and pepper shakers. Pre-owned, well used and vintage 1950's. The graphics are faded on the pepper and almost nonexistent on the salt. There are lots of scratches and scuffs. The top is missing paint. The bottom reads West Bend Made in the USA. They measure approximately 4 inches high and 2.5 inches in diameter.
COTTON TEAL / COTTON PYGMY GOOSE :
Cotton Pygmy Goose or Cotton Teal (Nettapus coromandelianus) is a small perching duck which breeds in Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Southeast Asia and south to northern Australia. Small examples are the smallest waterfowl on earth, at as little as 160 g (5.5 oz) and 26 cm (10.5 in). White predominates in this bird's plumage. Bill short, deep at base, and goose-like.
Male in breeding plumage is glossy blackish green crown, with white head, neck, and under parts; a prominent black collar and white wing-bar. Rounded head and short legs. In flight, the wings are green with a white band, making the male conspicuous even amongst the huge flying flocks of the Lesser Whistling Duck, which share the habitat. Female paler, without either black collar and only a narrow or nonexistent strip of white wing-bar. In non-breeding plumage (eclipse) male resembles female except for his white wing-bar. Flocks on water bodies (jheels), etc.

Historic marker for the old 1912 Bee County Courthouse in Beeville, Texas. The plaque reads:
"Bee County was created in 1857 from parts of five neighboring counties. The first county seat was located seven miles east of this site, and the first commissioners court was held on the banks of Medio Creek in February 1858. The city's earliest courthouse consisted of a box frame structure. In 1912, local architect W. C. Stephenson designed this, the county's fourth courthouse. A native of Buffalo, New York, Stephenson aided in the design of the death mask of President William McKinley. He was the architect of several Beeville buildings, including the Rialto Theater, two churches and several houses, and later designed the Classical Revival McMullen County courthouse. W. C. Whitney, builder of three other Texas courthouses, contracted to build the Bee County courthouse for $72,050. Whitney died during construction and W. C. Stephenson's partner, Fritz Heldenfels, completed the project. Stephenson drew upon the strong contemporary influence of the French Beaux Arts School with a level of grandeur previously nonexistent in Bee County. Some original Beaux Arts features such as the cast stone balustrade originally outlining the roof were later removed, and the 1943 addition partially obscured the symmetrical plan and façade of the edifice. The Bee County courthouse is a fine example of the Classical Revival style. Of particular significance are the grand portico and projecting pediment entry with Corinthian columns and dentils along the roofline. The Chicago-style windows, comprised of one glass pane flanked by two narrower ones, with transoms above, are noteworthy. Also unusual is Stephenson's lady of justice; unlike most such symbols, she is not depicted as blind. Recorded Texas Historic Landmark – 2000"

Lots and lots of company this week — the trail is packed with section- and thru-hikers and the shelters are full every night! Plenty of trail magic too! Two days of hunger were narrowly avoided when a section-hiking friend gave me a lift to the grocery store after I shipped my food to a nonexistent shop in Port Clinton. And a day later, ran into a gang of dedicated day hikers on the Pinnacle ("best view on the AT in PA," they say) in the fog and rain. We could barely see the slippery rocks, much less the view, but they loaded me up with some much-appreciated snacks. Having fun so far! Wish you were here!

The latest model. Lil started talking about it at lunch and the because of my gadget fetish (only partially justified by the excuse of a professional obligation to study, catalog, play with, buy, show-off, fiddle with, hack, talk on walks all manner of mobile technology), we looked at one at a small phone store. Lil then offered to take me to a nearby Vodaphone store to look into what I could get. Being a foreigner, my ability to own a slick Japanese phone is basically nonexistent, but perhaps there was something that could serve as a specimen from an otherworldly place. Before too long, I had managed to convince Lil to buy this particular model for herself!

Barbara Home Steward and Orin Good Fogle with Hermit Roy Ozmer on Pelican Key (now named Comer Key)
Robert Roy Ozmer (1899-1969) was perhaps the most literate of the Everglades hermits, a newspaperman, actor, sailor, and artisan among other previous careers. According to his widow, he read widely, had traveled extensively, and enjoyed a "keen mind." As the student-authors put it: "Roy Ozmer was a hermit not because he didn't like people but because of a personal problem." That problem was alcoholism. He had separated himself from his family and lived on the island in hopes of curing himself. "I've foregone society," he was quoted as saying, "but if the world wants to come out and share a cup of coffee or talk over a problem, it's all right with me." Several photographs show Ozmer with a jaunty beret; he left poems and drawings as well.

A daring Florida couple quit their jobs and sold all their worldly goods then moved into a 12'X14' hut (no electricity or plumbing) on a 3-acre island in the Gulf of Mexico to fulfill a dream: exploring The Ten Thousand Islands and Everglades by canoe -- covering 3,500 miles -- during their 30-month sojourn there, 1957-1960.
University of Florida, Class of 1952: Barbara Home Stewart (BA, Psychology) is featured with her husband Orin Good Fogle in the video Everglades Odyssey, which portrays the couple exploring the Everglades when development of that area was almost nonexistent.

Mendon Ponds Park is owned and very poorly maintained by the County of Monroe, NY.
Unfortunately, this extraordinary property is rapidly deteriorating due to an egregious lack of care. Trails are not cleared of debris... signs are useless. Park maintenance is essentially nonexistent. They do have a marketing department. Seriously, the taxpayers are paying the salaries of a county parks marketing department.

i found this quote a little while ago and it has quickly become one of my favorites. it honestly sums up everything in life.
"nothing is original. steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. if you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. authenticity is invaluable; originality is nonexistent. and don't bother concealing your thievery - celebrate it if you feel like it. in any case, always remember what jean-luc godard said: 'it's not where you take things from - it's where you take them to.'"

Leeville, Louisiana
on Bayou LaFourche
LaFourche Parish
Leeville was settled by flood victims. On October 1, 1893, a hurricane wiped out the area's main settlement, Caminadaville, which sat on a spit of land bordered on three sides by the Gulf and on the fourth by swamp. Nearly half of Caminadaville's inhabitants perished in the storm, most by drowning, some when the buildings they had taken refuge in collapsed.
Survivors sailed up the bayou in their damaged canots and began buying land from an orange-grower named Peter Lee, who was selling plots for $12.50 each. For sixteen years, they fished, planted rice, and held fais do-do dancing parties in homes with covered verandas.
Then, in 1909, the Leeville Hurricane struck. (A contemporary newspaper account described survivors of that storm subsisting on drowned rabbit.) Six years later, a third hurricane forced residents to flee north once more. According to local legend, the storm surge carried one house from Leeville nine miles inland. The owner simply bought the plot underneath it and moved back in.
In the nineteen-thirties, Leeville rebounded briefly. Oil was discovered in the area, and by the end of the decade there were ninety-eight producing wells in town. The pay was good and regulation nonexistent. Blowouts routinely rained sulfur and brine onto the houses, into the cisterns, over the trees. Tin roofs corroded and vegetable gardens shrivelled up. When the wells ran dry, oil production moved offshore and Leeville was again deserted.
There were no more jobs, and the town itself had begun to wash away. Where once men in straw hats picked oranges and harvested rice, today there is mostly open water.

Maine state capitol in Augusta. The only other time I've seen this building was way back in late summer 1996. The dome was green then. Coppery green, like the Statue of Liberty (as is given away in the collage picture of the capitol made of business cards posted here). It was recently repainted black, within the last few years.
It's a fairly straightforward and understated capitol which makes it enjoyable. The city of Augusta...an unusual place. A town of 20,000, there aren't many amenities here, and public transportation is nonexistent. I was incredibly lucky to get uber drivers, according to the one who drove me back to the bus station. Overall, Maine isn't a place to be if you aren't driving yourself around.

Between 1975 and 1983, tens of thousands of people went missing in Argentina’s “Dirty War.” The exact number of the tortured and murdered in state-sponsored detentions is impossible to determine due to the discreetness of the disappearances and disposal of the bodies. Free speech was nonexistent; the members of the media and press who spoke out frequently became part of the missing. It was in this environment of fear that street art became a public voice, and in the decades that followed it has continued to be part of an activist culture of art, especially in Argentina’s capital, Buenos Aires. This week, filming started on a feature-length documentary called White Walls Say Nothing (Paredes blancas no dicen nada in Spanish) that aims to capture the history and contemporary vibrance of Argentine street art.
Vandalism, even tagging, is rarely prosecuted in Buenos Aires, and street artists paint out in the open. Home and business owners regularly allow their buildings to be covered in murals and street art, an openness that goes back to the time of economic and political downturn in the early 2000s, a time where just two weeks saw five different presidents. Street artists tried to add some life and happiness to the city with their work, and many in the city embraced it as the return of their free speech.
Beeville, Texas
Bee County was created in 1857 from parts of five neighboring counties. The first county seat was located seven miles east of this site, and the first commissioners court was held on the banks of Medio Creek in February 1858. The city's earliest courthouse consisted of a box frame structure. In 1912, local architect W. C. Stephenson designed this, the county's fourth courthouse. A native of Buffalo, New York, Stephenson aided in the design of the death mask of President William McKinley.

Originally built between 1793 and 1797 during the Second Spanish Period, this Spanish Colonial and Neoclassical-style cathedral is the fourth church to occupy a prominent position at the heart of the city of St. Augustine. The original church, built of flammable materials, stood from 1565 until 1586, when it was burned during an attack by English Privateer Sir Francis Drake. Not even a year later, the church was rebuilt of palm logs, with a straw roof, which succumbed to fire in 1599. In 1605, thanks to a tithe from Spain, a timber church was constructed, which stood until a failed English attack on the city in 1702 by James Moore, then-governor of Carolina colony. There were attempts to rebuild the church during the First Spanish Period, starting in 1707, but these went nowhere, and the money intended for the church’s reconstruction were misallocated by corrupt officials. Instead, during the remainder of the First Spanish Period, mass was held in the St. Augustine Hospital. Following the transfer of governance of Florida to the British in 1763, the need for a new Catholic church was nonexistent, as the catholic population of the colony fled to other Spanish colonies. At the start of the Second Spanish Period in 1784, the need for a new church became more apparent, and work on the current cathedral’s Coquina stone walls began in 1793. The facade of the church features Neoclassical elements around the front doorway, with the Spanish Colonial style being employed on the roofline and limited fenestration on the front facade. The church stood in its original configuration until a fire in 1887 destroyed the timber roof structure and did major damage to the interior. Following the fire, Henry Flagler led the effort to have the cathedral rebuilt, with James Renwick, Jr. designing an expansion of the old building, giving it a rectangular cruciform layout, and adding the Spanish Renaissance-style bell tower and European-style transept to the building. The interior was rebuilt to feature exposed decorative timbers that supported the roof structure, and a decorative polychromatic tile floor. The building has since received a few more additions, which house a chapel, service areas, and offices, as well as a building to the rear of the cathedral along Treasury Street, built in the Mediterranean Revival style, which houses the offices of the Diocese of St. Augustine. Today, the cathedral remains a prominent landmark in the city, and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places and listed as a National Historic Landmark as part of the St. Augustine Town Plan Historic District in 1970.

The Challenge:
In a small hot spot location such as a café, restaurant or book store, local technical support is limited or nonexistent However, the technical issues associated with maintaining broadband access, accounting and billing, and access point availability are identical to larger installations. Separate router, gateway, and access point equipment present additional expense and complexity. Hence, simplicity adds greatly to the afford ability of hot spot network equipment, and to consistent availability of Wi-Fi service at a small hot spot.

For single cell deployments, the ORiNOCO AP-4000 access point solves the key issues of customer acquisition, service provisioning, and billing faced by providers. This Wi-Fi unit integrates a wireless access point and access gateway functionality into a single, affordable unit. Installation and maintenance of a single unit are dramatically simpler, allowing quick deployment of hot spot service. This is ideal for the small business owner as well as for the service provider provisioning multiple distributed, small venue locations.
According to Wikipedia, MissingNo. (けつばん Ketsuban?), or MissingNO,[1] is a Pokémon species found in the video games Pokémon Red and Blue.
Standing for "Missing Number", MissingNo. Pokémon are used as error handlers by game developer Game Freak; they appear when the game attempts to access data for a nonexistent Pokémon species. Due to the programming of three in-game events, players can encounter MissingNo. via a glitch. The species was first documented by Nintendo in the May 1999 issue of Nintendo Power.
ISAÍAS 41:10 'No tengas miedo, porque estoy contigo. No mires por todos lados, porque soy tu Dios. Yo ciertamente te fortificaré. Yo cierta y verdaderamente te ayudaré. Sí, yo verdaderamente te mantendré firmemente asido con mi diestra de justicia’. 11 ”¡Mira! Todos los que se acaloran contra ti se avergonzarán y serán humillados. Los hombres que tienen una riña contigo llegarán a ser como nada, y perecerán. 12 Los buscarás, pero no los hallarás, a aquellos hombres que están en una lucha contigo. Llegarán a ser como algo inexistente y como nada, aquellos hombres que están en guerra contra ti. 13 Porque yo, Jehová tu Dios, tengo agarrada tu diestra, Aquel que te dice: ‘No tengas miedo. Yo mismo ciertamente te ayudaré’.

ISAIAH 41: 10 'Do not be afraid, for I am with you. Do not be anxious, for I am your God. I will fortify you, yes, I will help you, I will really hold on to you with my right hand of righteousness.’
11 Look! All those getting enraged against you will be put to shame and humiliated. Those who fight with you will be brought to nothing and perish.
12 You will search for men who struggle with you, but you will not find them;
The men at war with you will become as something nonexistent, as nothing at all.
13 For I, Jehovah your God, am grasping your right hand, The One saying to you, ‘Do not be afraid. I will help you.’

Facing west-northwestward. Taken 6.2 nanoparsecs from the Land of Oz, in the southeastern quadrant of the entirely nonexistent locale of Elephino. This pseudo-Hellenic name epitomizes the feeling I have whenever I try to pin down the exact location of this and my other photos shot while I was approaching Parnassus from the east.
I do know that I was west of Tsoukalades on what was then the main road from Thebes to Delphi, and that I had not yet reached the Kastri hogback.
My main source for understanding the geology of this tectonically fubarized region remains
- Nirta, Giuseppe, Giovanna Moratti, Luigi Piccardi, Domenico Montanari, Nicolaos Carras, Rita Catanzariti, Marco Chiari, and Marta Marcucci. “From Obduction to Continental Collision: New Data from Central Greece.” Geological Magazine 155:2 (2018), 377–421.
In previous posts I have been critical of both its contorted albeit typically academic prose and one of its key bedrock maps. But it contains another map, Figure 10, which is clear and most helpful. As are some of this article’s photos. One of the latter shows a place very close to the landscape shown above. Thanks to that, I was able to figure out the geology here.
At this point in my journey the rain and associated light-diffusing mist were at their maximum. The great, snowcapped Parnassus Massif stands smack dab in the center of the background, but the wet, sullen weather has reduced it to a faint and evanescent mass. More perplexing are the power-line pylons that march across the low ground to the right of the main road. They are ghostly to the point of near-invisibility. And so they appear on the original slide this image was scanned from. I’m not sure why.
What’s still quite vivid is the large excavated area, also at right, that exposes red bedrock that elsewhere on the hillside is a duller maroon where it’s partially covered by vegetation. This is the Pelagonian Flysch, Paleocene to Eocene in age. It’s younger than the Mesozoic carbonate rock, part of the dauntingly named Mesoautochthonous Unit, that now rests on top of it. This is an example of a sequence of sedimentary strata that was completely overturned during the formation of the Hellenides chain.
Flysch is a type of deep-water deposit that often contains turbidite beds. The Pelagonian variety is by no means the only kind one can see along this route. Also present are the Boeotian type, shown in Part 23, and another belonging to the Parnassus Nappe itself. I have a shot of that one, taken in Arachova, that is coming up later in this series. No doubt there’s a very good reason why all these flysches are red, but I haven’t come across an explanation yet.

Over the last hundred years, some decades have seen huge schools of sardines flourish off the Central California coast; during other decades, the small fish have been virtually nonexistent. These changes may be symptomatic of long-term (50-year) cycles that affect the entire Pacific Ocean.
Susan Hollins, superintendent of Greenfield Massachusetts Schools, talked about how she stepped into a district where much of the staff had resigned, many teachers were fired, and a working budget was nonexistent. Now her district is recognized as a leader of innovation in Massachusetts.
this photo kind of reminds me of that episode of buffy ('that episode of buffy', i say, as if i don't know the title - out of mind out of sight, or something. pathetic.) where clea duvall is so disenfranchised she becomes invisible. AKIRA, WE'D PAY MORE ATTENTION TO YOU IF YOU DIDN'T RUN AWAY IN THE FACE OF NONEXISTENT DANGER!
Mendon Ponds Park is owned and very poorly maintained by the County of Monroe, NY.
Unfortunately, this extraordinary property is rapidly deteriorating due to an egregious lack of care. Trails are not cleared of debris... signs are useless. Park maintenance is essentially nonexistent. They do have a marketing department. Seriously, the taxpayers are paying the salaries of a county parks marketing department.

THE NEW GLOBAL CONSUMER: DOING BUSINESS IN A DIGITAL ECONOMY
The digital economy is no longer part of the economy. It is the economy. How can traditional brick-and-mortar firms reinvent themselves, their supply chains, and their marketplaces to avoid the fate of brands once thought of as everlasting but which are now nonexistent? And how are new platforms – from e-commerce to shared services – rewriting the rules of the game? A conversation on how businesses can manage expectations for digitally empowered customers, and how technology is being used to enhance the customer experience.
