Andrew at the "Rally to Save the American Dream" protest in support of Wisconsin. Dupont Circle, Washington, DC.
I'm assuming this is a sow and the smaller hogs I saw down at water's edge nearby were hers. She didn't move, call out or make any threatening gestures. Her young were all in a panic one they realized a human was closing in, but she took it all in stride. Of course, she probably outweighed me by a couple of hundred pounds and was probably smart enough to tell that I was handling a camera instead of a rifle. And me--I'm smart enough to know not to go up the bank and attempt to introduce myself.

Another photograph for the fashion part of my course. :)
The idea behind this is to attempt to convey the sensation of motion being missed: the motion - the perpetual motion of a plant - is missed as it has been severed from its roots to be manipulated into the head-dress form you see here.
04/06/2025. Wattisham, UK. The Prince of Wales, Colonel-in-Chief, the Army Air Corps (AAC), during his first visit to the regiments. His Royal Highness received an overview on the work of the AAC and heard about 664 Squadron’s operational lessons from overseas tours and how soldiers are adapting to the new capabilities of the recently acquired Apache AH-64E. The Prince also observed a combat PT session before joining the ‘Archer’s Breakfast’ a weekly social event held by 664 Squadron for its personnel and their families. Finally, His Royal Highness presented a King’s Commendation for Valuable Service as well as awarded soldiers their promotion from Corporal to Sergeant. Picture by Andrew Parsons / Kensington Palace

Coconuts for sale at festival site.
24th Annual Chariot festival of Sri Mayurapathy Paththirakaali temple is held today (6th of August 2011) in Colombo amidst heavy downpour. Five wooden carved chariots parade through the streets of Bambalapitty (Colombo 04) and Wellawatte (Colombo 06).
Devotees dressed elegantly and took part in religious rituals such as carrying clay pots of camphor, rolling themselves on the ground, smashing coconuts and hanging on hooks (Kaavadi ~ Men only). Few devotees who fulfill their vows, got into trance and danced on the streets. Devotional songs played throughout the dazzling parade. Traditional and non ~ traditional musical instruments added colour to the festival
The nature and pace of climate changes being observed today and the consequences projected by consensus scientific opinion are serious and pose severe risks for our national security. The CNA Military Advisory Board (MAB), a group of more than a dozen admirals and generals from all four branches of the U.S. military, first published a report on these threats in 2007. After nearly a decade of advances in scientific understanding and slow, or in many cases non-existent, reactions to projected changes, the MAB felt compelled to provide an update.
Join us in a discussion with MAB members and report authors on what has changed and why the national security implications of climate change are still important. During their decades of experience in the U.S. military, the members of the MAB have addressed many national security challenges, from containment and deterrence of the Soviet nuclear threat during the Cold War to terrorism and extremism in recent years. The national security risks of the changing climate, they contend, are as serious as any of these.

Gusty winds and heavy rain observed upon arriving to work in Pleasanton, CA. A strong atmospheric river reached the Bay Area on Thursday, soaking the already water-logged region as forecasters & government officials predicted flooding, fallen trees, power outages — and a new round of misery for some Santa Cruz Mountains communities — by Friday morning. The storm was forecast to bring the Bay Area’s wettest conditions since early January, when a series of 9 atmospheric river systems ravaged parts of the region with historic amounts of rainfall & wind. It was also expected to bury the Sierra Nevada in breathtaking amounts of new snow, up to 8 feet in some places! The storm was to target Northern & Central California, where flood watches blanket much of the region lasting into Sunday. The National Weather Service made the rare move of upgrading Friday’s risk of excessive rainfall from “moderate” to “high” on Thursday afternoon. Up to 10 inches of rain in 24 hours could fall in some areas where there is snowpack, and so “the potential for widespread flooding is considerable,” the Weather Service said. Relentless snowstorms have battered the state since late February, burying mountain towns while helping to build a near-record snowpack. The wet winter so far has had a remarkable impact on the drought. According to the U.S. Drought Monitor, much of central California was now drought-free. But that relief came with escalating flood potential & snow-related impacts…

Observée en Isère dans le massif du Vercors
Plante protégée en France, éteinte dans certaines régions, se porte plutôt bien chez nous dans les Alpes.
Various animals at the zoo do like to observe people watching them, even when they sit down they still like to be watching rather than turn their backs. Curiosity in big cats too?
I observed a group of skinks frolicking in the small patch of forest sunlight. There were at least two different species together and of different ages, all chasing each other and fighting for dominance. Unfortunately, they were moving so fast and I was too far away for getting any decent photos.
Ominous skies observed this morning over the city. Looks like a storm was brewing indeed! Pics taken from around San Jose, CA. (Wednesday afternoon, February 1, 2017)
Weather scenario/update:
A low pressure area was to our west with several cloud bands spiraling off of it. This system was moving slowly eastward. Clouds were to increase this day with precip spreading over the area tonight and early Friday. The low was to move across NorCal by Friday night. By the upcoming weekend, the north state was to see partly cloudy to cloudy skies with scattered showers mainly over the foothills and mountains. Another low pressure area was to be dropping southward along the Pacific Northwest coast by late Sunday. This system was to bring more rain to the area by Sunday night and Monday... As of now, it looks like it's going to be wet in the Bay Area the following week with two distinct weather systems set to deliver more rain to the region, including another, here I say it again, an atmospheric river! Atmospheric rivers are flowing columns of condensed water vapor with the stronger ones carrying an amount of water equivalent to around 7.5-15 times the average flow at the mouth of the Mississippi River! Get those rain gear ready, guys!
