Toblinger Knoten / Torre di Toblin
(October 2024)
#SilentSunday #LandscapePhotography #Photography

View a large rock tower behind another lower mountain peak near a pass with a small chapel (good for appreciating the scale). The mountain nearest to the pass has visible tunnel openings at its base above the talus fields. These are remnants of the frontline from world war I. Massive cumulus clouds are forming in the background, above them clear blue sky. The entire scene is bathed in warm late afternoon light of October. All the grass patches have turned into a rich coffee brown.

Once again, the government has responded to a Court order with which it disagrees by
pretending it doesn’t exist.
Mr. Abrego moved for sanctions based on senior DHS official Gregory Bovino’s flagrant violation of this Court’s October 27 Order

(Dkt. 183, the “Order”)

governing extrajudicial statements relating to this case.

The government’s brief opposing that motion largely ignores the Order.

Question about the contribution renewal process
Hello,

On October 8, 2024, I made a contribution of £36.00 GBP to join the social.coop cooperative.

Time has passed and today (2026-02-28), I just thought about renewing my financial contribution, in the amount of £12.00 GBP.

I am surprised not to have received any message requesting a renewal of my financial contribution. I don't think I received an email, I saw nothing on the https://social.coop interface, and nothing on https://opencollective.com either.

Local return-to-office policies are helping to fuel the resurgence, said luxury real estate agent Alexander Fromm Lurie, who is the brother of San Francisco Mayor Daniel Lurie. The city’s existing “mansion shortage,” coupled with “a massive influx of buyers who want to be back in the city,” is making it difficult for even his wealthiest clients to find quality housing, according to Lurie.

Published in Nature Communications (October 2025), the material outperforms petroleum-based plastics in terms of strength and stability, while maintaining 90% of its original strength after recycling. This makes it a renewable and recyclable alternative for industrial use.

A small waterfall emerges between some of the rock cliffs. The snow capped peaks of large mountain in the hazy background. Clear blue sky with a single small white cloud

has fueled intense speculation that he may step down to ensure his conservative legacy endures under Trump’s second term.
With Republicans holding the Senate majority ahead of the 202…

Morning hike in the Lechtal Alps (October 2024)
We seemingly had the valley all to ourselves, for the first few hours the valley floor still mostly frozen with crunchy hoarfrost until the sun was high enough in the sky. The cirque at the end of the valley already completely in deep winter. These transitions (often within just a few minutes) are so magical and unique to mountain regions...

A path in an alpine valley leading into the distance towards a group of trees. On the right, steep sunlit slopes are rising up towards sharp mountain peaks dusted with snow. Gray, semi-overcast sky. It's still early morning and so the valley floor is still all in shade.
