What does the name 1.26 mean?

 

“With this work, I wanted to show that we are all interconnected. I was inspired by the impact of seismic shocks on the entire planet,” Ms. Echelman explains. “The title is a reference to the effects of the earthquake in Chile in 2010, which shortened the length of the day by 1.26 microseconds. The shape and motion of the net refer to the height of the tsunami waves caused by the quake. The forces of nature influence all my work,” she added.

I didn't get a good shot of the Perseid meteor shower that night, but our old friend the milky way put on a spectacular show above the potato chip rock on Mt. Woodson.

I saw this book in the reading room the John Hansard Museum had set up at the More Than Stories exhibition I went to recently. I had a quick look at it and immediately had a 'must have' moment so when I came home I found a second hand copy online.

This morning I noticed that it was in exactly the right place to catch the morning light streaming in through the little hexagonal window we have in our lounge......it just needed my specs put in place to get this image.

My eye appointment, and Craige takes all the attention! LOL

A Great Horned Owlet appears to be wearing bifocals. Its nictitating membrane is a third eyelid allowing vision while protecting the bird's eyes. (seen in mid-town Tucson)

Kerry has several different pairs of these wide arm glasses which she seems to be quite a fan of.

A view of the two main arches which make up the Windows formation in Arches National Park. Jointly, these are refered to as “The Spectacles” because they look like a pair of glasses resting on a nose.

Jerry came by today wearing his Halloween spectacles. He was a little waisted as usual. He refused to sit up straight. Then he got the munchies and would not leave my fake fruit alone.
