this 1914 photo of an american gunner atop an elephant in sri lanka exists despite the fact elephants were never sent to battle, only used by militaries to replace vehicles in terrain they couldnt cross

Behold, the 1200 meter tall "Labyrinth" ice wall/fall at Morteratsch, Bernina group, Engadin. September 2024.
(A special place if you ever wanted/needed to feel real small, surrounded by majestic fourthousanders...)

Not all flower visitors are equally helpful to the flower; separately tracking bees that buzz to release pollen and bees that steal pollen from flowers in a bunch of Chamaecrista species shows how tracking visitation alone would misrepresent the interactions

Tornado no Algarve parece ter “aparecido do nada”, mas o perigo estava identificado: em Portugal há um problema de “perceção do risco”
O tornado de Albufeira voltou a revelar falhas estruturais na prevenção e na preparação do país para fenómenos extremos: em vez de "rajadas fortes" é diferente dizer "estruturas ligeiras podem ser arrancadas do sítio", exemplifica um geógrafo ouvido pelo Expresso

One report from Nuuk:
“Greenland Police on Saturday granted consent for the establishment of a temporary military area on the outskirts of Qinngorput in the capital Nuuk, amid Washington’s ongoing interest in taking over the territory.
In a written statement, Greenland Police said a temporary military area has been established for Danish Armed Forces' equipment storage, along with fencing and clear signage installed in the area.
"The site will be under continuous guard, and unauthorized persons will not have access to the restricted area. Consideration has been given to safety and the local community, and relevant signs and barriers have been put in place to guide motorists and pedestrians," the statement said.”

Not finished today, but surely surely finished tomorrow!?
Mirrors stuck onto the doors. Quite a lot of mirror. Makes the room feel bigger.
All the trim and handles are on now. Just one hole for cables missing. Catches need to be put on the blind-doors. Adjusting the doors so they open and close smoothly. Couple of lights to be attached. Painting and decorating touch-up.
Actually do believe they'll finish tomorrow.

Very unique look at a cardiac arrest handled almost flawlessly. EMS arrives while the pt is A&Ox4, he arrests in front of them and CPR is started within seconds, first shock after like one cycle of compressions. ROSC achieved so fast they don't even get drugs or an airway established before he wakes back up.
And the whole thing is caught from multiple camera angles with a HIPAA release from the pt.

I guess the plans for Sunday swimming are off the table at the current temperatures. #Uckermark #coldswim
