There were several types of mammoth, all members of the elephant family. Most widespread was the Woolly Mammoths, which ranged across all northern continents and grew a very long, thick, hairy coat to keep out the bitter cold of the recent Ice Ages.
The woolly mammoth was roughly the same size as modern African elephant. Males reached shoulder heights between 2.7 and 3.4 m (9 and 11 ft) and weighed up to 6 tonnes (6.6 short tons). Females averaged 2.6–2.9 metres (8.5–9.5 ft) in height and weighed up to 4 tonnes (4.4 short tons). A newborn calf weighed about 90 kilograms (200 lb).
The woolly mammoth coexisted with early humans, who used its bones and tusks for making art, tools, and dwellings, and the species was also hunted for food. It disappeared from its mainland range at the end of the Pleistocene 10,000 years ago, most likely through climate change and consequent shrinkage of its habitat, hunting by humans, or a combination of the two.
The teeth of a mammoth consist of a series of plates composed of enamel surrounding a dentine core. These are held together in a matrix of dental cement.
Each tooth erupted from the back of the jaw and slowly moved forward as it wore, to be replaced by another tooth from behind. The thickness and number of tooth plates are important identification criteria.

Day 3
Segment 10 random spot to Segment 11 Interlaken Trailhead
It was cold but mostly tolerable. Probably didn't need to, but since I carried it, I did use the 'woobie' which added additional warmth. During the night I heard something pelting the tent at various times. I figured frozen snow or ice pellets. There were white patches in the morning. Thermometer said 36f which was not as cold as I anticipated.
I only had about 3 miles of hiking to reach Segment 11 at the Mount Massive Trailhead. It was chilly so I did wear gloves and buff. I encountered a large boulder that had fallen on the trail. I've removed numerous trail obstructions from the Appalachian Trail, mostly blowdowns and never a large rock like this. It was easy to get around, so I don't think they will be moving it anytime soon (even if they could). Just before the trailhead I left Mount Massive Wilderness Area.
Halfmoon Creek Road leads to the Mount Massive Trailhead and is another access to Leadville. Cyclists are allowed to bike on the Colorado Trail. However, they are not permitted in Wilderness Areas. Segments 9 & 10 contain Wilderness Areas. After a detour, cyclists can rejoin the trail here. As a general rule I have not had problems with cyclists.
At the trailhead I noticed a 'No Camping' sign but the CT Databook indicates camping here. And there are nice sites so I assume the sign is for car campers. I had my coffee break here overlooking Halfmoon Creek.
Segment 2 is a very dry and exposed section of the Colorado Trail. In 1996 the Buffalo Creek fire destroyed the pine forests and turned a portion of segment 2 into an arid, almost desert like environment. An unexpected area within the mountains of Colorado.
Segment 2 begins with the crossing of the Gudy Gaskill bridge. Gudy was a driving force behind the Colorado Trail. This bridge was built in 1999 in her honor. After years of being "The Mother of the Colorado Trail", Gudy died in July of 2016.
I knew tonight was going to be a dry campsite, so I had to carry extra water. I started hiking again at 1510 ... about 20 minutes later it was 97f. The next time I checked, under the only shade tree, it was only 102f .... it was HOT! with very little shade. I had enough water so I was OK. I passed several decent campsites (dry) but I kept hiking until 1830. Camped by myself.
Not sure how to turn this.
I need to have the interface between AllBlack rim disk and Index ring, turning at right angles to the axis or the join will be wobbly.
If I put the shaft in the chuck, I could use the tail stop to align things, then remove it.
Might be best to remove the tapered jaws, they will only be in the way.
El nom d'aquesta armadura. Noteu que el terme usat pels romans es desconeix, aquest és un terme modern.
A selection of photos put together in a grid. These were taken as part of a project exploring the body. I focused on its differences and simalarities-for example finding scars, blemishes and different muscles/bone structures in a range of individuals.
I have been done this project for my local client. They are satisfied and also appreciating me for doing this.
I always do their work with integrity and loyality. I feeling blessed to work with Them.
Thank you.

This is a photograph from just after the 7 mile mark of the 8th annual running of the Trim AC 10 Mile Road Race and Fun Run which was held in Trim, Co. Meath, Ireland on Sunday 5th February 2023 at 12:00. The race attracted over 1,600 finishers which demonstrates again the popularity of this race. Indeed the event shows growth year on year mirroring the growing popularity of the race. The race started on the Trim/Athboy road on the town's ring road and proceeds to take an anti-clockwise loop out towards the village of Dunderry and townland of Kilbride before returning back to the Trim Industrial Estate for the finish. The route is held on quiet country roads with some hills at 3, 6, 8 mile segments. The road is well marked and marshaled and is comfortable able to accommodate the race at its current size.
Timing and overall event management was provided by the Co. Kildare based company Popup Races. The results and more details about the race will be found on their website at www.popupraces.ie
El gobierno nacional dispuso hoy segmentar las retenciones a las exportaciones de cereales y oleaginosas, que beneficiará principalmente a 46 mil pequeños y medianos productores de soja, maíz, girasol y trigo, los cuales formarán parte de un programa de estímulo que contará con un fondo de reintegro de 2.500 millones de pesos.
KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. In the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB), the right aft center segment of a Solid Rocket Booster (SRB) is lowered toward the aft booster for mating. The aft booster arrived in the VAB Nov. 22 for the Return to Flight mission STS-114. Two SRBs are stacked on the Mobile Launch Platform and later joined by the External Tank.. The twin 149- foot tall, 12-foot diameter SRBs provide the main propulsion system during launch. They operate parallel with the Space Shuttle main engines for the first two minutes of flight and jettison away from the orbiter with help from the Booster Separation Motors, about 26.3 nautical miles above the Earths surface.

Went to West Meadow Beach to try to get some sunset pictures but it was cloudy. Luckily, it was also low tide and I got to see some neat things in the water including this 8 foot long worm! Okay, more like 6 inches.
