Space and Place in the work of Yi-Fu Tuan
Posted on 5 July 2017 by Konrad Lawson
This posting is the first of three offering a reading of the work of the geographer Yi-Fu Tuan from a historian's perspective. I hope to follow it with a series of similar postings on other scholars that may offer us productive ways to think about spatial history, or in other cases, avoid some of the pitfalls along the way. Historians who are interested in issues related to space are presented with a bounty of potential inspiration when it comes to theoretical work, much of which will draw them to reading works outside their own discipline. Philosophers and other thinkers who fit uncomfortably into any single disciplinary category are found in great number, while perhaps the most intuitively natural disciplinary home for thinking about space, geography doesn't have much claim to a monopoly or dominance. If we take one volume that explores some of the most influential thinkers, Thinking Space (2000), for example, we find that both the editors, Mike Crang and Nigel Thrift, and a majority of the work's authors are themselves geographers or find their institutional home among them, but not a single one of the sixteen thinkers considered by its chapters are. The Sage collection of 66 essays introducing Key Thinkers on Space and Place delivers a slight majority of its pieces on geographers, but also reveals the impressive interdisciplinary range of scholars who have made important contributions to thinking about space.
In the case of Thinking Space, which brings Walter Benjamin, Deleuze, Frantz Fanon, Bruno Latour and others under one roof, we see a good example of the important role of active communities of later scholars reading, reinterpreting and drawing out the spatial implications of this or that thinker and exploring the potential of applying these ideas in their work in circumstances where the original set of thinkers were not necessarily in conversation with each other about these ideas either directly or in their own work. By contrast, when it comes to reflecting on space, place, and the many problems that go along with it, histories of geography as a discipline by Richard Peet and David Livingstone or in more recently published companions aimed at students suggest that the more confined disciplinary space among geographers has yielded particularly dense set of patterns, trends, widely recognised interventions and, most of all, mutual encounters among thinkers. This shows how disciplinary space can as much enable intense and fruitful interaction even as the boundaries between them inhibit them.1
Below I want to introduce Tuan and what draws me to his work. I will devote a second posting on Tuan to consider him more critically, focusing on two features that I suspect many historians would find troubling: the relative little attention to change on the one hand, and to either human agency or social structures in bringing about the spatial practices that he describes. Finally, in a third posting, I want to say a bit more about the style of argument that Tuan uses, his consistently concrete, empirical, and engaging writing style, and then revisit some of the features of his approach that I think continue to make him interesting to read today.
Yi-Fu Tuan is an emeritus professor at the University of Wisconsin and often described as a key proponent of what he called a "humanistic geography." When Tuan sets out the answer exactly what that means in the widely cited article he wrote under that title, he calls for them to turn their gaze away from what he sees as the "dogmatic" scientific approaches in which a "former liberator becomes censor." It is not a rejection of such approaches, but more a lament that these approaches "circumscribe the appropriate language of discourse concerning man."2 Instead, a humanistic geographer is to pay closer attention to geographic phenomena and human awareness, to take the risk and "perceive intention" where others see only objective forces, to take more seriously emotions of attachment to place, and to celebrate the power of human initiative to "break out of habitual modes" and clarify concepts and symbols related to space.3
In this manifesto for a field of geography Tuan speaks confidently of it in terms that suggest it already exists, and in a sense it was beginning to. Edward Relph's similarly inspired Place and Placelessness comes out the same year with a complex framework and analysis of the "modes of spacial experience" while Anne Buttimer's work would count among the humanistic geographers of the decade. Like Relph, Tuan describes the practice of humanistic geography in phenomenological terms but conflates this as the fruitful gamble of the humanist approach in general, "The humanist runs the risk of paying excessive attention to beginnings," a phrase which could have been easily found in the opening pages of Bachelard's The Poetics of Space, where he describes his phenomenological approach to space as, "a consideration of the onset of the image in an individual consciousness" or later phenomenology of space an approach which "liquidates the past and confronts what is new."4 This was not the first time Tuan had written like this: in an also widely cited 1971 article on geography, phenomenology, and human nature, Husserl, Merleau-Ponty, and indeed Bachelard's Poetics of Space itself all make their appearance but without any engagement with any of their ideas in detail.5 In this earlier article we find his goal stated in its boldest and perhaps most problematic early version: Tuan believes that a phenomenological approach will allow the identification of human essences, and allow for a "geography as the mirror for man" or which "reveals man" (by now you will have spotted the gendered nature of these identifications). Whereas Bachelard offers corners, miniature, and shells, for example, Tuan in this article suggests exploring the spatial secrets of "back" and "front," of "home" and "journey" (in Space and Place one can find way stations between these two as critical) among others, and suggests that only by looking at humanity's basic responses to the world through spatial concepts such as this will a geographer capture things which statistic approaches fail to deliver, as when, for example, one attempts to use statistics on visits to nature parks as a measure for human interest in nature.
These two articles are perhaps the most cited of his works, but were closer to proclamations than demonstrations. For the latter you could turn to his now long list of books including Topophilia: a Study of Environmental Perception, Attitudes, and Values (1974) and the work that I will focus most on in these postings, Space and Place: The Perspective of Experience (1977). In this work he gives a clear set of definitions for his two main concepts and then, in a thematic approach explores the awareness and response to them in major realms of human experience. In the introduction to a 2001 edited volume dedicated to Tuan on humanistic geography Textures of Place the excitement and "groundswell" that was produced by Yi-Fu Tuan's scholarship inspired what would come to be recognized as "Tuanian" work. This movement is described in glowing terms even as the book goes on to describe the many limitations of its framing in its early days. On the other hand, the roughly identifiable cluster of humanistic geographies appear to have largely ceased to go by that term by the 1980s, it argues, and the rise of cultural geography, contextualist approaches, and "critical humanist geographies" took its place.6
So what drew me to Tuan's work if, in some sense, the peak of its particular approach came in the unique moment of disciplinary transformation within geography of the 1970s and was then absorbed and developed in new decorations in the decade that followed? A few of the things I found most impressive were: 1) the inspiring breadth – pick up a work by Yi-Fu Tuan and flip through it, not even skimming full sentences, and you will be immediately struck by the sheer cosmic scale of his approach. He shifts smoothly from quoting Kant on the heavens to the spatial practices of Eskimo on the hunt or describing the ventilated homes of termites – all in a way that never looses the plot. We'll come back to the dangers of this kind of approach, but the experience for the reader is breathtaking and sets the mind on fire with ideas. 2) the range of sources – a related point are the sources he draws this from. A good majority comes from anthropology, but psychology, architecture, literature, philosophy, and the hard sciences are all taken up and woven together in an impressive way and brings me to 3) the readability – many of the ideas that Tuan is interested in are abstract, such as the experience of time, the ability to perceive and analyse space and the relation of this to culture, but Tuan's works are extremely readable, not only accessible to a general reader, but it is, I would argue, possible to pick up Tuan at any point in his Space and Place and almost immediately be pulled in. While I very often found myself protesting at the conclusions Tuan is drawn to, I think there is considerable value in the way that the highly concrete examples Tuan uses continually provokes the reader to engage in reflection. Even if that reflection results in protest, it often inspires new ideas for a researcher. Enough for now, but in the next posting I'll consider Space and Place in more detail and turn to some of its problematic aspects.

I've got my HackDay London Medium Format scans back from the Lab, so they're now on Flickr. As I was only there for the Sunday afternoon, I had to fire off a few rolls of colour and B&W really quickly. So I don't think this is the best set of geek portraits I've taken, but there's some nice pictures in there.
I'm at We Love Technology in a fortnight, and will have more time, as I'm there for a few days. I took a really nice set of pics at WLT last year so I'm looking forward to seeing Lisa and everyone again this year. If you're going, come and say hi!, and please pose for a photo!

We, Maja Weber, cello, and Per Lundberg, piano, have been playing chamber music together for more than twenty years, mostly in piano quartets and quintets. The idea of forming a duo was a natural consequence of our work together, and it was together that we chose the name "Duo Leonore". We have always shared a strong need for artistic expression – and that, like many other things in our society, is something that has hardly changed since Beethoven's time. We find our mutual musical passion reflected most especially in his music. That is perhaps because of Beethoven's uncompromising belief in the power of music. Leonore, the heroine of his opera Fidelio, symbolizes Beethoven's aesthetics for us: her humanism, personal readiness to make sacrifices and courage ultimately lead to triumph.
We would like to sincerely thank our generous Steinway sponsor Musikhaus Krompholz in Berne. The firm is a fantastic partner and has placed a wonderful Steinway & Sons concert grand at our disposal for this Beethoven recording and been unfailingly supportive throughout the project.
My name is Per Lundberg and I was born in Stockholm in 1962. When I was about four, my family moved from Stockholm to Norrköping, a city 160 km to the south, and that is my real home town. My parents are not musicians, but my father listened to a lot of jazz and my mother bought a piano for me, and I began to play it when I was about seven.

Q: CloudWatch Insights By Date I'm trying to create a CloudWatch Insights query for Amazon Connect that will give me call counts by date. I'm able to get the number of log messages by date, however, I need to only count unique ContactId's. The query I have has many duplicated ContactId's since each time Connect logs to CloudWatch, it uses ContactId to tie all of the events related to a contact together. Is there a way to modify this query to only show the count of the unique ContactId?

It is still a difficult process for parents to make a complaint and communicate with the Ministry.
The Ministry says it is now better at logging complaints and logged 360 complaints in 2014, up from 246 in 2013 and 247 in 2012.
Making a complaint is still a difficult process though - complaints should be able to be made in confidence but Ministry staff are known to have told the operators of services the names of people who laid a complaint and parents can find themselves brushed off. .
"I filed my complaint and received first contact from the Ministry about my complaint yesterday. She said my complaint process is not completed because I have to inform the ECE service that I am going to make a complaint. The lady from the Ministry said she couldn't see the service provider's response.
"It took me five weeks to do my best to communicate with the manager. I put everything in writing in the emails and communicated with the manager and the emails are all there, the manager's responses. I consider emails a very common practice in writing in today's world. I also gave the manager updated feedback in paper but she never replied.
"We didn't give up with our complaint. We managed to meet with the Education Manager at the regional office but all she did was to check the paperwork and told us that the centre is meeting all the requirements. She even told the centre our names yet she did not do anything about the issues of our case.
Now we have had to take our case to the regional director and hope that it will finally be looked into".

Azurescen mushrooms are native to the pacific nw area of the USA, and are spread through countries in Europe. It grows from northern Oregon along the coast up to Canada. It's a very popular mushroom for hunting in the fall months and typically fruits in that region of the USA from mid October into early January depending on when the first hard freeze comes. The Azurescen mushrooms has a unique shape and is nick named "flying saucers" due to it's classic UFO shape. Textbooks such as Paul Stamets Psilocybin Mushrooms of the World say it has been analyzed to have the highest concentrations of psilocybin and psilocin, almost 3X as much as cubensis. The only other psilocybe mushroom to have been analyzed to have higher concentrations of psilocybin is the psilocybe subaeruginosa.
The psilocybe azurescens is a cold weather mushroom that grows in temperature ranges below 40F in nature. Even for spores to germinate, the temps need to be down around the 50F-55F range for 1 to 2 weeks to start the life cycle in nature. However spawn runs have been published as high as 75F but spore germination and fruiting temperatures are always much lower. This is typical of most wood loving cold weather psilocybe mushrooms. Once the first hard frost comes then the mycelium stops sending up mushrooms. Very typical of wood loving edible mushrooms as well. In nature, the azurescen typically grows on fast decomposing hardwoods, and does best on alder wood. This species has been found growing on many other hardwoods as well. I've hardly read any reports of people fruiting these indoors. Most people just establish patches outdoors and they take anywhere from 8-16 months to establish and fruit. Then each year they add more small wood chips to the patch and the patch continues to thrive year after year. Many mushroom hunters tend to dig up patches they find in nature and move them to other locations to get a new patch started. This is a very quick way of establishing a mushroom patch with many species. The psilocybe Azurescen's also grow attached to sea grass along the sea shore around the north Oregon and southern Washington coast. The sea grass is high in tryptamine which psilcocybe mushrooms convert to psilocybin. This is one reason why species that grow on clumps of grass like the psilocybe semilanceata's are always highly active.
The special collection of spore prints of azurescens we will be selling are from a rare sub strain that we call "gigantium". In nature these produce much larger, thicker, denser mushrooms then the standard azurescens. Our friend who's hobby it is to hunt and photograph these type of mushrooms says he's only seen the gigantiums twice in 8 years of photographing this species. Although these are a real treasure, spores are very limited of the "gigantium" and the spore prints we have are lighter and smaller then what we normally sell. These will be partial prints. These are for serious collectors only so be aware of this if you order them as we will ignore any complaints of the spore prints not being up to our usual density. None the less their will still be thousands of spores on the foil. These will sell out fast and we don't know if we will get any more for year or two. Standard azurescen spore prints will be back in stock around mid November. These "gigantium" prints are one per customer only. Thank You.
The psilocybe azurescen deserve a lot of respect and will certainly bless those who seek them with patience.
Microscopic features: Spores dark purplish black in deposit, 12-13.5 by 6.5-8u, ellipsoid. Basidia 4-spored. Pleurocystidia abundant, fusoid-ventricose, tapering toa narrow but short neck, bluntly papillate, 23-35 by 9-10 u. Cheilocystidia nearly idential to pleurocystidia, measuring 23-28 by 6.5-8u.

Seong Eun-jeong (born 31 October 1999) is a South Korean professional golfer. Before turning professional, she won the 2016 U.S. Women's Amateur. Her win granted her exemptions into several majors on the LPGA Tour from 2016 to 2017. At the 2017 ANA Inspiration, she became the first amateur golfer to score a hole in one at the event. As a professional golfer, Seong won her first professional golf tournament at the Danielle Downey Credit Union Classic during the 2018 Symetra Tour.

Career
As an amateur golfer, Seong participated at events held by the United States Golf Association. She competed at the 2013 U.S. Women's Amateur but did not make the cut. The following year, Seong was runner up at the 2014 U.S. Women's Amateur Public Links. Her first amateur wins came at the U.S. Girls' Junior in 2015 and 2016. After winning her second Junior championship, Seong won the 2016 U.S. Women's Amateur. Her 2016 wins made Seong the first golfer to win both the Junior and Amateur championships within the same year. After she won the U.S. Amateur, Seong received an exemption to the 2017 U.S. Women's Open and potential invitations to the 2016 Evian Championship, 2017 ANA Inspiration and 2017 Women's British Open.

At major championships, Seong did not make the cut at the 2016 Evian Championship. The following year, she was the first ever amateur golfer to score a hole in one at the 2017 ANA Inspiration. Her ace was the latest at the tournament since 2012. Despite her hole in one, Seong did not make the cut at the ANA Inspiration in 2017. At subsequent 2017 major championships, Seong missed the cup at the U.S Women's Open and Women's British Open. Outside of the LPGA, Seong began playing on the Symetra Tour in May 2018. A few months later, she won the Danielle Downey Credit Union Classic and obtained her first win as a professional golfer during the 2018 Symetra Tour season.

What South Africa Can Teach Us About Reparation
tags: racism, South Africa, reparations
by Ereshnee Naidu-Silverman
Ereshnee Naidu-Silverman is the senior director for the Global Transitional Justice Initiative at the International Coalition of Sites of Conscience.
Last week, for the first time in more than a decade, the House of Representatives held a hearing to discuss the issue of reparations for slavery and subsequent laws that discriminated against African Americans. Testimony from experts like Ta-Nehisi Coates made the argument for reparations by outlining how the United States economically benefited from slave labor. It also highlighted more than a century of oppressive policies that occurred after slavery ended, as well as legacies of discriminatory practices, ranging from the disproportionately high mortality of African American women in childbirth to the mass incarceration of African Americans.
The congressional debate then focused on who will bear the costs of a reparations program, how beneficiary eligibility would be determined and how much states would pay. But the hearings overlooked one component crucial to addressing the ongoing structural racism in the United States: truth-telling.
Can community reparations — which will prioritize African Americans' access to services, institutional reform, scholarships for African American children, symbolic measures such as a public apology for past wrongs — make a difference? Yes, but only if accompanied by a public truth-telling project that addresses continued white denialism, exposes the reality of racism and makes clear the consequences of decades of inaction.
To do this, Americans can learn from South Africa, which over two decades ago undertook a national, public truth-telling initiative — the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) — to address its long history of institutionalized racism. That initiative was a necessary first step in the country's process of healing and rebuilding relationships, rooted in a shared past.
In framing reparations as a broader development program, Mbeki diluted the impact of the TRC's message, which highlighted the moral wrong of apartheid and the effects it had on black South Africans. The benefit of reparations is as much about the process — the recognition of harm done, the need to make amends and efforts to reintegrate a specific group back into society as equal citizens — as it is about the actual form that the reparations would take.

Carole King Makes "Beautiful" Music at The Fisher
Posted on December 20, 2016 by It's All Theatre
Julia Knitel as Carole King
The show is "Beautiful" because that's the title of one of the cuts off the album that spent a phenomenal six years on the best-seller charts. It's "Beautiful" because the music the songwriter created provided the soundtrack for a generation. And it's "Beautiful" because that's the best word to describe the woman whose career the musical showcases: composer, musician, and performer Carole King. "Beautiful The Carole King Musical" is the show's full title and it's currently appearing at the Fisher Theatre for a four week engagement. The musical opened on Broadway in January of 2014 where it's still running, with Detroit being the current stop of the show's first National Tour.
Julia Knitel as Carole King and Liam Tobin as Gerry Goffin
Carole King (Julia Knitel) has been a part of the music business since she was 16. In the early sixties she wrote and recorded "It Might As Well Rain Until September", a song that met with moderate success. But soon after that King's career changed from performing to full-timecomposing, and what followed was an incredible string of hits written with lyricist Gerry Goffin (Liam Tobin). Their songs were recorded by some of the best singers and groups of the era like The Drifters, The Chiffons, The Shirelles, Tony Orlando, Little Eva, and Bobby Vee. In 1971, King returned to performing, recording an album of very personal songs she had either written or co-written. The album was "Tapestry", and it went on to become an enormous hit, winning Grammy Awards for Best Album, Best Single ("It's Too Late"), Song of the Year ("You've Got a Friend"), and Best Female Vocal.
Curt Bouril, Liam Tobin, Julia Knitel, Ben Fankhauser, and Erika Olson
Over two dozen songs are included in this juke box musical which also tells the story of those early years of King's career and some who played an important part in it. She worked hard at making a name for herself in those early years, managing to juggle her career with being a mom to a young daughter she had with Goffin, whom she married. Fellow songwriters Barry Mann (Ben Fankhauser) and Cynthia Weil (Erika Olson) became both friends and rivals, and also play a significant part in the show. Mann and Weil wrote hits for The Crystals, The Ronettes, Paul Revere & The Raiders, and The Righteous Brothers. A selection of their songs is also included in the show. Others who play a major role in the show include King's mother Genie (Suzanne Grodner) and record producer Don Kirshner (Curt Bouril).
"Beautiful" is nostalgic and entertaining. The show contains one greatest hit after another and is sure to strike a chord with those lucky enough to have been there during the sixties when the music was fresh. Songs include "On Broadway", "The Locomotion", "one Fine Day", "Will You Love Me Tomorrow", and "You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling". It's an all-star assembly of tunes that will stir your memories and long for the good old days. For those born a half-generation later, the several songs from "Tapestry" provide memories of a later era. Much of the musical's charm comes from the performance of Julia Knitel, whose personality fits perfectly the woman who was able to rise above the often times seedy business of music publishing and maintain her dignity. Knitel is also capable of delivering King's material with heart and soul.
The Cast and Set of "Beautiful"
The show's set, by designer Derek McLane, is a grid-like arrangement of waffled squares and rectangles randomly displaying guitars and tape recorders used to make recordings in the sixties. Scene changes are accomplished smoothly and efficiently, with furniture and props gliding effortlessly in and out of the various sets. Period costuming is by Alejo Vietti. Lighting, which is important here in establishing both mood and movement, is by Peter Kaczorowski.
Though "Beautiful The Carole King Musical" will have special appeal to those who remember listening religiously to Top 40 radio, all the songs contained in the show have long since attained classic status. In addition, most of the songs are so good they continue to be recorded by today's artists. The show is a happy one, filled with feel-good music you won't want to miss. It runs through January 8th. Book is by Douglas McGrath, words and music by Goffin & King and Mann & Weil. Tickets are on sale at the Fisher Theatre box office in the Fisher Building, all Ticketmaster locations, by phone at 1.800.982.2787, and online at www.BroadwayinDetroit.com or www.TicketMaster.com. The Fisher Theatre is located at 3011 West Grand Blvd. in Detroit.

When we were here last, the tavern reminded me of a scene from a post-nuclear holocaust movie. I have always been a fan of the Fallout games on PC, and this could have been lifted from one of those. I assumed at the time, that the tavern would be left to rot, like the rest of the village. I was wrong.
To our surprise, we found that somebody is obviously in the process of renovating the tavern. This is an amazing cleaning job.
The battered sheet metal roof hid a scene of devastation. The floor was littered with glass debris, that had fused together in the heat.
Now the roof has gone.
The veranda needs new flooring, but it is already a heck of an improvement.

SCN8A epileptic encephalopathy is a devastating epilepsy syndrome caused by mutant SCN8A, which encodes the voltage-gated sodium channel NaV1.6. To date, it is unclear if and how inhibitory interneurons, which express NaV1.6, influence disease pathology. Using both sexes of a transgenic mouse model of SCN8A epileptic encephalopathy, we found that selective expression of the R1872W SCN8A mutation in somatostatin (SST) interneurons was sufficient to convey susceptibility to audiogenic seizures. Patch-clamp electrophysiology experiments revealed that SST interneurons from mutant mice were hyperexcitable but hypersensitive to action potential failure via depolarization block under normal and seizure-like conditions. Remarkably, GqDREADD-mediated activation of WT SST interneurons resulted in prolonged electrographic seizures and was accompanied by SST hyperexcitability and depolarization block. Aberrantly large persistent sodium currents, a hallmark of SCN8A mutations, were observed and were found to contribute directly to aberrant SST physiology in computational modeling and pharmacological experiments. These novel findings demonstrate a critical and previously unidentified contribution of SST interneurons to seizure generation not only in SCN8A epileptic encephalopathy, but epilepsy in general.
SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT SCN8A epileptic encephalopathy is a devastating neurological disorder that results from de novo mutations in the sodium channel isoform Nav1.6. Inhibitory neurons express NaV1.6, yet their contribution to seizure generation in SCN8A epileptic encephalopathy has not been determined. We show that mice expressing a human-derived SCN8A variant (R1872W) selectively in somatostatin (SST) interneurons have audiogenic seizures. Physiological recordings from SST interneurons show that SCN8A mutations lead to an elevated persistent sodium current which drives initial hyperexcitability, followed by premature action potential failure because of depolarization block. Furthermore, chemogenetic activation of WT SST interneurons leads to audiogenic seizure activity. These findings provide new insight into the importance of SST inhibitory interneurons in seizure initiation, not only in SCN8A epileptic encephalopathy, but for epilepsy broadly.

Return to About PEP
Every year, the Peconic Estuary Partnership recruits several interns. Please review each internship description for application details and deadlines.
Alewife Monitoring Data Analysis Internship
Open to Applicants!
Every spring, Alewife travel from the ocean to coastal waters and eventually make their way into freshwater rivers and streams to spawn. However, barriers – such as dams and road culverts – can block them from reaching their spawning habitat. The Peconic Estuary Partnership is working with its partners to restore access for alewife to their critical freshwater habitat by providing passage through or around these barriers. In 2010 a fishway was built at the Grangebel Dam on the Peconic River, restoring access to 25 acres of habitat for alewife and other diadromous fish. Since the completion of this fishway, the PEP has been monitoring Alewife on the Peconic River, through visual fish counts and biological sampling. Beginning in the spring of 2019, PEP installed a video camera at the Grangebel Park fishway to get a better estimate of the number of Alewife using this fishway to travel up the Peconic River to spawn. Additionally, a fish passage was completed at Woodhull Dam in 2022, equipped with a fish camera. The intern will assist PEP with analyzing the recorded video footage to better understand alewife population abundance trends. For more information and directions on how to apply for the 2023 season, click here.
Horseshoe Crab Monitoring Internship
The Peconic Estuary Partnership hosts a Hampton Bays project site as part of an Island-wide study to monitor horseshoe crab populations. This internship will require 12 nights of monitoring (3 nights every other week) from May-June to collect environmental and biological data and lead interested volunteers. Monitoring times are based on high tides and can vary between 10pm-2:30am. Data entry and analysis will be based in Yaphank with flexible times. The intern must be comfortable handling live animals and have reliable transportation for monitoring nights. For more information and directions on how to apply for the 2023 season, click here.
Otter Monitoring Internship
The intern is responsible for assisting with the collection of scientific data on Peconic Estuary and Watershed Otter Surveys in the Spring from March through May. The intern must be available for an Otter Survey Workshop Training in February. The ideal candidate will have a biology background. For more information and directions on how to apply for the 2023 season, click here.
Bilingual Outreach Internship
The intern will translate existing outreach materials, develop new material, and attend outreach events to help educate the Spanish speaking community. Based in Riverhead, some travel to east end towns is required. For more information and directions on how to apply for the 2023 season, click here.

We've visited the junkyard equipment yard a few evenings in the past few weeks. It's a good place to take our rather hyper puppy and explore. The kids love building forts. They have one in the old cattle truck. And another in the back of a pickup bed.
Sometimes I wander around taking photos in the gorgeous light. This is a Say's phoebe.
And the many colors and patterns caught my eye for this tractor wheel.
To the east we saw the mountains that to some look like an owl, and to others a bat silhouette.
Sunflowers are my weak spot, I love these flowers! Some backlighting made this one glow.
The cogs on this wheel caught my attention. It's tied down so can't turn anymore.
My husband often perches up high to keep an eye on the kids. Desert Girl climbs no matter what she's wearing.
This old car looks like it wouldn't mind going for another ramble.
When friends get to come along, it's even more fun.
...it's an old hay wagon, with cogs to move the hay off the back to feed the heifers in winter. And now you know!
A lot of my time over the past couple weeks has been spent on the Strawberry Fire, started in Great Basin National Park by a lightning strike. The fire is nearly over (we hope!), and I have a day off to download photos and reflect on what's happened.
The fire was reported on Monday, August 8 about 11 am. Some park staff looked at it and reported that it covered about 15 acres and spreading quickly. The BLM was called in to assist with full suppression. A few hours later, the fire had spread to an estimated 2,000+ acres. Fire crews weren't even able to enter the canyon because it was too dangerous.
We went out that evening and got some views. Watching the fire and smoke column was even better than watching TV!
I drove around to Highway 6/50, where ash was falling. I pulled off the road and found some vantage points of the glowing canyons.
With a long exposure I could see the many little fires on the hillside, each of them a glowing tree. It was a bit surreal.
From the Mill Creek road, I got a neat long exposure of the rising smoke. The light on the left is the moon. The light in the lower right is from flames.
That night, crews stayed on the ranch, and I stepped outside to see them do their 6 am briefing.
The smoke continued on Tuesday, with big patches of trees burning. It seemed like the fire was spreading in at least a couple directions.
After work, I picked up the kids and we took a little drive.
A sign on Highway 6/50 said Smoke Across Highway. They were certainly right.
We drove through the smoke and past Weaver Creek. I climbed a hill and got this perspective on the fire.
Then we went to Silver Creek Reservoir, which was being used by a dip site by one of the helicopters. It was cool to watch. We managed to swim a little in between helicopter trips, and that water is beautiful!
Here's the view from the Mill Creek side, with the private property in the lower left.
On Wednesday, I had an all-day hike for work. When I returned in the late afternoon, I cooled off in the pond near our house. I noticed that everything looked orange. The wind had changed, and the smoke was blowing across the sun. Fortunately, the fire didn't grow too much, but was estimated at over 3,000 acres.
Thursday was my first chance to go into Strawberry Creek Canyon and look at it with the eyes of a Resource Advisor from the fire. (My photos are elsewhere from that day, but you'll get an idea soon of what it looked like.) While approaching the canyon, we could see a nice mosaic of burned and unburned areas. I was hopeful the fire had burned similarly further up canyon. But once we entered the canyon, we saw that the fire had burned everything from ridgetop to ridgetop, including the entire riparian area. I groaned, thinking of the flash floods that would ensue. In fact, Facebook reminded me of a post the year earlier, when my supervisor and I had nearly been trapped in Lexington Canyon due to a flash flood over the Black Fire. We barely got out of there and thought we would surely have to spend a night, unprepared, in the canyon.
On Friday, 8/12, I returned to the fire as a Resource Advisor and accompanied another Resource Advisor who had come from Redwoods National Park. Our task for the morning was to assess a potential spike camp and helispot past the end of the road. We got some good views on our hike, including some burned areas near the top of Strawberry Creek.
We followed the historic Osceola Ditch, which had burned over. The steep slopes adjacent to it will make preserving the ditch difficult.
The sign showing the Mountain Shrub Community will make a good photopoint as the vegetation returns to the landscape. You can see the many smokes in the Blue Canyon area of the fire.
Some other folks were electrofishing Strawberry Creek that morning to see if any Bonneville cutthroat trout could be salvaged. To my great surprise, they found a lot of fish. Hurray! I was so happy to be wrong. They were moved to Silver Creek. More fish salvage is expected to take place next week, hopefully before it rains.
In the afternoon we witnessed several retardant drops, including some by VLATs--Very Large Air Tankers. Read mucho dinero.
Saturday I left the fire in the hands of three very capable NPS resource advisors from other parks. The number of people on the fire had swelled to over 400, and acreage was now estimated at over 4,000 acres. I attended a workshop and dinner that I had signed up and paid for weeks earlier. It turned out I wasn't quite done with the fire for the day, though. During dinner I got a call asking me to respond to the fire in the ambulance, as there had been a fatality on the fire and the primary ambulance had gone to respond to it and they needed a backup ambulance. When I got to the fire camp, which had swelled to a dozen yurts and many semi-trailers, I learned a little more from some of the line EMTs. Most of the details were still obscured, though, and no one was entirely certain what had happened except that one of the hot shots (very experienced firefighters) had died from a falling snag.
I went to bed late and exhausted that night, but was back to the fire camp at 6 am for the morning briefing. It was a somber affair. The fire was still burning, though, so there was work to be done. The personnel on the division of the fire where the firefighter had died had totally changed.
I spent my morning looking at where the fire retardant had been sprayed. Fortunately it was far from aquatic resources. The high nitrogen content of the fire retardant isn't good for aquatic systems, but on upland resources has very little impact.
The retardant coated some trees, and I was able to see some large pockets of bug-killed trees. If forests don't receive periodic fire, the insects will come in and help refresh the forest by eating the weakened trees that are growing too closely together.
We also evaluated a possible medevac site and looked at the old limber pines that would potentially have to be cut for a helicopter to land there. We hoped it wouldn't have to be used.
Some of the limber pines along the ridge were really massive, and the other resource advisors showed me how to read some of the burn scars on them.
Here's a closeup of the burn scars. Some old trees showed as many as three burn scars.
We had lunch overlooking Blue Canyon, safe in the retardant area.
Later that day, two of us walked down a contingency handline to inspect that. The handline was put in so that if the fire spotted across the ridge, firefighters would have a place to start fighting from.
The line bombed down through mixed conifer, mahogany, and then a sagebrush ridge. We kept it on our radar for future rehab.
Later that day, information was released to the public about the fatality on the fire. His name was Justin Beebe and he was with the Lolo Hotshots. Soon we were getting more information about his background and who he was. The news stories turned the abstract into something more real. You can read more here. My heart goes out to Justin's friends and family and the firefighting community.
On Monday, I returned to the lower part of Strawberry Canyon with the leader of the Burned Area Emergency Response (BAER) team. This team will evaluate how to stabilize the area so that it can recover as well as possible.
We discussed various options and basically just did a reconnaissance of Strawberry Canyon road and a bit up the trail.
Some sections of the fire burned really hot (where you see the white up on the ridge), so those areas are expected to have less soil stability. We've witnessed massive flooding after the nearby Black and Hampton Fires, so we are expecting the same for the Strawberry Fire. I spoke with the incident meteorologist (a position with a Type 2 team!) about this flooding and gave him the date for one of the floods in the Black Fire. He will be looking up the radar for that date and that info can help forecasters better predict when Strawberry Creek will flood. If anyone has any dates for other floods on the Black or Hampton Fires, let me know and I'll pass those on.
I had to work on a fish project on Tuesday and Wednesday because that had been in the planning stages for years and we needed to get it done. But Thursday I was back out on the fire with more BAER team members. They were quite interested in the very long culverts under the road. They are plastic, and the ends had melted.
It was really nice seeing some regrowth in the fire. Along places, sedges were already several inches high. We also saw two elk in the middle of the really burned area.
On Friday I installed a couple wildlife cameras that may capture photos of flooding and regrowth. We'll find out. The road is really close to the creek in some places and we expect it will get washed out.
Then I re-walked the contingency handline and found that the Slide Mountain Hand Crew from the Tahoe area had done a really nice job rehabbing it. It will no longer turn into a gully if it rains. The crew foreman pointed out some other fire scars on the landscape I had never noticed before.
I'm off the fire for now, with other duties to attend to. The fire is 98% contained. You can see incident info, press releases, photos, and maps on Inciweb. It was a very interesting experience, as it's been many years since I was on such a large fire. The fatality was a tragedy I hope to never have happen on a fire I'm on again. It really brought home how dangerous wildfires are and the fragility of life. I think I'll still be processing it for some time.
I really appreciate the other resource advisors and firefighters sharing their knowledge about fire processes and history. I've learned a lot. And I have a feeling I'll keep learning more as we watch how the fire recovery takes place.
While I was looking through tourist information on our trip to Cedar Breaks, I found a reference to the Twisted Forest, a grove of bristlecone pines, and some general directions to it in the Dixie National Forest. I was intrigued--I love bristlecones. So we braved a Forest Service road that started near Brian Head with the van. The road was in great shape, and I hooted with excitement as we drove across the slopes at Brian Head ski resort. We wound our way around the mountain, through beautiful aspen groves, past empty campsites, over a big, muddy puddle, and arrived at the Twisted Grove trailhead 3.5 miles after leaving the pavement. A sign, overhung by a bristlecone pine, greeted us.
As soon as left the trailhead, we entered Ashdown Gorge Wilderness. We also had stunning views of what awaited us: old growth bristlecone pine on orange and white substrate. How cool was that!
Some of the bristlecone pines looked very strange, and not that healthy. I'm not sure what's going on with them.
Many showed stripbarking, or only a small strip of bark alive keeping part of the tree alive, while the rest was dead. This is a common strategy for bristlecone pines to live longer. The sign said that at least one tree in this grove was over 2,000 years old.
We kept going until we reached the ridge (this brought some tears from Desert Girl, who really didn't want to hike the half-mile trail). I left the kids with water and snacks and walked the ridge to explore some more. I found all kinds of neat trees.
This one was barely hanging on. Brian Head Peak is in the background.
This one was dead but had such an interesting shape.
I must love the neat twists, as I took a lot of photos of them!
The lighting wasn't what I considered ideal, but I tried to work with it.
A storm was moving in from the east and we could hear some distant thunder, so we couldn't stay much longer.
This sure is a place I'd like to return to. You can find more info about the Twisted Forest here.
On the way back we walked up to the top of the chair lift at Brian Head.
It was crazy seeing the slopes without snow. Hopefully we'll be back this winter!

Q: Share dynamic tables between Flink programs I have a Flink job that creates a Dynamic table from a database changelog stream. The table definition looks as follows:
tableEnv.sqlUpdate("""
      CREATE TABLE some_table_name (
          id INTEGER,
          name STRING,
          created_at BIGINT,
          updated_at BIGINT
      )
      WITH (
          'connector' = 'kafka',
          'topic' = 'topic',
          'properties.bootstrap.servers' = 'localhost:9092',
          'properties.zookeeper.connect' = 'localhost:2181',
          'properties.group.id' = 'group_1',
          'format' = 'debezium-json',
          'debezium-json.schema-include' = 'true'
      )
    """)

When trying to reference that table in another running Flink application on the same cluster,  my program returns an error: SqlValidatorException: Object 'some_table_name' not found. Is it possible to register that table somehow such that other programs can use it? For example in a statement like this:
  tableEnv.sqlQuery("""
    SELECT count(*) FROM some_table_name
  """).execute().print()

A: Note that a table in Flink doesn't hold any data. Another Flink application can independently create another table backed by the same Kafka topic, for example . So not sharing tables between applications isn't as tragic as you might expect.
But you can share tables by storing them in an external catalog. E.g., you could use an Apache Hive catalog for this purpose. See the docs for more info.

The idea was simple - to make the sound archive of Jodrell Bank into a hit single/dancefloor smash using sounds from the big band to the present day, from sounds sent to earth from all over the universe.


Can you give me an estimate on the release date of version 8? I'm waiting for some new features. (especially multiple channel editing) and are in doubt whether to wait or start editing manually at this moment.
the channel multi editing is planed for version 8 but it is not 100% sure if it will make it into the first version.
We are still hoping to implement it and make it available for you by the end of the year.
