Restée là

La photo était là.
Belle, dense, verte, silencieuse.
Et puis l’émulsion s’est détachée.
Elle s’est accrochée ailleurs. Au carrelage froid. Comme un corps qui refuse de disparaître.

Séréna est restée là, coincée entre la peau et le support.
Abîmée mais intacte.
Comme beaucoup d’entre nous.

#Confession time...

I spent ten minutes wondering why I was having such trouble cutting a trace on one of my custom protoboard PCBs - was my knife too dull? Was there something wrong with the board I'm using? Is it connected somewhere that I'm forgetting about?

I looked at everything multiple times, probing and getting the BEEEEEP of the continuity mode on my meter.

And then realized the trace *was* successfully severed, it's just it was jumped by a resistor that was only 11 ohms, which is under the threshold my meter considers "continuous". 🙄

Check out our nice new #preprint @EGU_BioGeo about using #trace #element records through #gomphothere and #elephant teeth to reconstruct dietary patterns and identify geophagy (eating of soil) behavior in the geological past.

egusphere.copernicus.orgDetection of dietary stress and geophagic behaviour forced by dry seasons in Miocene GomphotheriumAbstract. To access the impact of anthropogenic emissions and land use change on Earth’s climate and biodiversity, studies into the environment and ecology of natural ecosystems during past warm periods are required. The Miocene Climatic Optimum is a key reference period for future global warming scenarios. However, studies uncovering Miocene climate have heavily favoured marine environments, leaving the impact of warming on terrestrial ecosystems understudied. Here, we present a multi-disciplinary study into the chemical composition of fossil Gomphotherium angustidens (Proboscidea, Mammalia) teeth from the Middle Miocene Vb division (~15.9–16.1 Ma) of western Portugal (Chelas Valley, Lisbon, Lusitanian basin) and their sedimentological context. Trace element and stable isotope compositions in these fossil teeth are compared with similar measurements in molars of a taxonomically related modern African elephant (captive Loxodonta africana). Results reveal seasonal-scale variability in trace elements in both fossil and modern proboscidean tooth enamel, which are interpreted as evidence for seasonal changes in diet. Periodic increases in Na, Fe and Si in G. angustidens demonstrate intake of sediment in the diet during fixed times of the year, a behaviour type previously described in modern elephants during dry seasons. In combination with the heavier carbon and oxygen isotopic composition in G. angustidens compared to L. africana, the terrestrial climate in Miocene Portugal appears characterized by seasonally dry periods, which forced geophagy behaviour of these large mammals and likely had significant consequences for the composition of Miocene ecosystems (e.g., food/water availability and potential seasonal range shifts) in southwestern Europe.

#Trace the Money!

Covid Action campaigners are calling on the UK Covid-19 Inquiry to find out where the billions allocated to the failed NHS Test and Trace went. Why did the Government outsource Test and Trace, sidelining professional public health experts in local government? Was it ideological or just a way of increasing the private sector’s profits? In the early years of the pandemic, Baroness Dido Harding of Winscombe and Prof.

What use to be before
now is no more

Nary a #trace
of yesterday's reality remains

Speculation now saturates
revisionist history
as PHD's pontificate unrestrained
their best pet historical theories

After many high priced consultations
scholarly consensus now proclaims
what had passed for absolute truth
back in the day
never really was

Interpretations have been revised
to edit out the textbook lies
that will exonerate departed martyrs

Victims of unyielding authorities of the past

Those erasers of contrarian dissent

Self righteous judges and juries
of all heretics
who bravely dared
not to salute the dogma
of a black and white world
science defined as flat

Remember this lesson
next time a rigid thinking fool
preaches to you about absolute truth

“Try not to hog your new favourite uncle,” Mia told Kamaria.
Ava stood in the doorway. “Dan’s brother. I knew there’s friction, but babysitting?”
“A legacy that left more than a #trace,” said Mia. “Dan was a substitute parent.”
“Is that why he doesn’t want children?” #vss365

#TRACE ___ !1

Une trace est une suite d'empreintes de marques laissées par le passage d'un être animé tel l'humain, l'animal ou la machine.

Les traces traversent le temps et les contextes. Elles ne demeurent identiques à elles-mêmes qu'en apparence. Les plaques tectoniques surgies des entrailles de la Terre dans le massif alpin portent des empreintes...
