I want to highlight a really cool #museum just outside #Portland, #Oregon: the Rice Museum of #Rocks and #Minerals! A real hidden #gem! (Pun intended)
We visited last week as part of a trip to take my kid to a two night sleep away camp at OMSI. He's been into #geology for a few years, and this place blew away all of our expectations.

They got me with this one!

'Activist Sofia Emuna spoke to ITV News near the Kerem Shalom crossing, telling the UK broadcaster that "it doesn't matter who your enemy is, you need to destroy their offspring to prevent them from creating more offspring."'
She's apparently also in the IDF Givadi Brigade, murdering offspring when she's not stopping aid trucks from entering Gaza to prevent their deaths.

Accidentally nerd-sniped myself into doing a little reverse engineering on the weirdest camera in my collection: the Rollei SL 2000.
Managed to figure out a few things like the film advance interlock and maybe how the ISO dial communicates, but still need to do more testing. For example I’m not sure how the frame counter limit works which prevents the camera for firing
El sábado hubo una actividad increíble en conmemoración de nuestro Kekepa, Pa Bru en el Pueblo de Amubri. Tuvimos competencias, sorbón, chichada y bailecito. Además nos acompañaron hermanos y hermanas de los territorios de Kekoldi (para quienes han ido a Puerto Viejo, es el territorio bribri más cercano a la costa) y de Salitre (Zona Sur), así como hermanos y hermanas de territorios cabecares.
Tengo algunos videos para compartir, pero estaba buscando alguna instancia de PeerTube para subirlos, pero aún no encuentro alguna donde sienta que esos videitos calcen. Cuando encuentre alguna apropiada los comparto.
Por acá dejo un par de fotos mal tomadas y que poco muestran. Los videos estan peor grabados, jaja.

The marker on this map is at Camp Mystic on the Guadalupe River, Texas. This is where many children lost their lives in the flash flood. The dots on the map are clickable federal streamgages. Note that there are no streamgages upriver from the camp.
If there had been a federal streamgage upriver from Camp Mystic then any savvy iOS or Android developer could write an app that lets the user input the unique ID for that gage and then sound an alarm if the water level at the gage increases by a certain amount.
Here is the link to download a csv file with the most recent data from any federal streamgage:

Replace the underline with the ‘gaugelid’ value which you can get by clicking a gage on the map I posted. This ID is the first attribute value.

in reply to evan • • •So the museum was the house of the Rice family whose collection was the original start of the museum.
(Not all theirs though, some of the collection , like the petrified wood, crab fossils above, were donated by other collectors.)
They built their house in the 1950s with the intent of displaying their collection, and it's a beautiful bit of mid-century architecture. After they moved out in the 1990s, the museum was opened to the public.
For example - their basement bar:

We went to Los Angeles earlier in the month on a long weekend trip, and for my kid made a stop at the Natural History Museum there, for their large collection. The Rice Museum just as large, and even more engaging.
