The image is from the front page of the Casper, Wyoming, Morning Star, with several different stories about Reeb's murder including one saying the mayor of Casper and governor of Wyoming were heading up the memorial fund. Would that happen today?
James Reeb was a classmate and friend of my father at St. Olaf College, which I learned when my dad attended a Christmas service at the James Reeb UU Congregation in Madison. Reeb's death was a couple weeks days after that of Jimmie Lee Jackson, murdered in Selma by Alabama State troopers.
Just walked past another diesel pickup, parked and idling away that now much more expensive fuel.
Also, drivers - don't assume I can read your mind and know you're aiming for half a foot ahead or behind me, and then get mad when I try to get out of your path while yelling at you.

Hegseth is one of the most obviously phony people I've seen in public life.
Is it the newest releases? Often you get extensions that don't work on new releases.
Since I was a kid I've been hearing about "people on welfare (or food stamps, etc.) buying lobster" like it was the crime of the century. www.the-independent.com/news/world/a...

15 years ago right about this time of day, the Tohoku-oki earthquake was unleashed, with as much as 100 meters of fault slip documented at the Japan Trench. The resulting tsunami rocked Japan and the world, claiming ~18,000 lives. It was one of only 5 M9 quakes ever recorded. ⚒️
“The University of Wisconsin-Madison Academic Staff Assembly passed a resolution on Monday calling for UWPD to end their contract with Flock Safety and publish all other contracts with surveillance technology companies, like Motorola Safeties and Rhombus.”
An impressive view of the tornadic supercell that produced massive hail in Illinois earlier today.
there are still plenty of low-paying jobs for melancholics, like security guards and third-shift janitors.
Hmmm....
More of the demo: An area of coppice dunes (nebkha) and a dry wash east of the headquarters of Jornada Experimental Range, New Mexico. The grassland-shrubland regime shift story. Data from @opentopography.org. Example of why I often like a basic gray hillshade to bring out landforms.

I guess what I was wondering is whether it's confined there or is there some other external control that could explain the change in sinuosity? Or does it just flip back and forth with no obvious explanation?
Okay, pretty convincing, but do you have an idea what explains the shift in the middle to mostly lower amplitude variation of curvature and migration rate, and then back again to higher amplitude?
"migration rates are a highly nonlinear function of channel curvature and they cannot be predicted"
migration rates:
can't stop thinking about friends who were displaced by bombs in Syria and have made new homes in Beirut and the uae just to be bombed again
Wisconsin will never live down having elected and re-elected this guy.
They are falling short of their potential, given their current mass balance
Didn't know that about Earl Grey, but I was big on trying new caffeine sources in the past, including yerba mate, kola nuts, and all kinds of tea. Now I have be more careful with caffeine though, and sticking with a single source (usually home espresso machine) makes it easier to get the right dose.
Also: for my PhD I spent six months just in the field collecting samples. Running and analysing said samples took much more than that (and the observations that were key to interpreting all those data were made 2yrs 11 months into my 3yrs of funding).
This was not a particular outlier.
The word "Hussite" instantly draws my attention. Same for "Bogumil" and "Cathare".
Paleoflood records indicate at least 2 natural spills of the lake in the last 4000 years. Such a spill now would mean catastrophic flooding for downstream communities.
The entire south side of the lake is part of the Spirit Lake Nation-Mni Wakan Oyate and their communities have been significantly affected by the flooding. Here are a few images from their Hazard Mitigation Plan. I am not doing their story justice here. www.spiritlakenation.com/data/upfiles...
Devils Lake (ND) flooding occurs because there are no natural outlets to the lake until it reaches an elevation of 1458 ft. Back in 1993, it was ~1422 ft. At that elevation it covers ~69 sq. miles. Today, the lake surface is at 1449 ft, and it covers 213 sq. miles.
ND is flat.
