Days after starting his second term, Donald Trump issued a series of executive orders that targeted DEI programs and policies for elimination, decrying them as illegal and immoral.
Museums across the country scrambled to react
— and in many cases, comply.
Within days, Washington’s National Gallery of Art announced it would close its office of belonging and inclusion
and remove the words “diversity, equity, access and inclusion” from its list of values on its website. …

How does this Roman torso get identified as #Apollo? Just look at his glutes!
#BumDayMonday

A Roman marble torso of Apollo, depicted lifesized, standing in contrapposto with his weight on his right leg, the left slightly advanced, with both arms lowered, the left pulled slightly back. The lithe figure has softly-modelled musculature, his long serpentine tendrils falling onto each shoulder, preserving a tree trunk support along the right thigh, and a smaller rectangular strut at the back of the left thigh.

The position of the arms, though mostly broken off now, suggests that this may …

These are the photos for my 2026 calendar. Got the proofs today. Should have the hard copies in 2 weeks. Always agonizing to pick 13 of my photos for the next one. The last few years I’ve had to use older ones too. I don’t get out to shoot as much anymore. I’m hoping that will improve. I’ve volunteered to be a photographer for the city park dept. I’ll take pics of people engaged in the parks and activities, and whatever else I see.

Composite of 12 photos I’ve selected for my 2026 calendar. In order the pictures are:
January - a house finch in a tree
February - a coyote standing looking at the photographer (me)
March - sunrise over mountains
April - 3 days-old goslings in weeds
May - a catbird in a tree
June - scenic view of mountains, clouds, rain, and sunlight
July - closeup of a Mariposa Lily

Popular media shows Santa's sleigh as red no matter which way it's flying, or even when it's standing still.
It's not. When it's parked, it's green. But most observers only see it flying away after making a delivery, hence the red shift.
And if you're lucky to see it inbound it's blue with a hint of UV-A. Wear sunglasses.

Dispersion-Aware Modeling Framework for Parallel Optical Computing

arXiv:2511.18897v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: Optical computing represents a groundbreaking technology that leverages the unique properties of photons, with innate parallelism standing as its most compelling advantage. Parallel optical computing like cascaded Mach-Zehnder interferometers (MZIs) based offers powerful computational capabilities but also introduces new challenges, particularly concerning dispersion due to the introduction of new frequencies. In this work, we extend existing theories of cascaded MZI systems to develop a generalized model tailored for wavelength-multiplexed parallel optical computing. Our comprehensive model incorporates component dispersion characteristics into a wavelength-dependent transfer matrix framework and is experimentally validated. We propose a computationally efficient compensation strategy that reduces global dispersion error within a 40 nm range from 0.22 to 0.039 using edge-spectrum calibration. This work establishes a fundamental framework for dispersion-aware model and error correction in MZI-based parallel optical computing chips, advancing the reliability of multi-wavelength photonic processors.

#SilentSunday

A path curving into the distance through a beautiful snowed-in winter forest. A thick layer of fresh powder snow on the ground and tree branches. Cold blue light. In the background a large mountain massif (also fully snow covered) rises up above the forest, the slopes bathed in golden evening light, glowing and standing out against the forest below and the clear, deep blue sky.

The door behind them consists of glass panes, behind which a dozen disembodied hands can be seen. At the door’s top, directly above the boy, the moon reflects from a glass pane, dark but for a sliver of light on its bottom s…
