I was checking some directions and roads in google maps the other day & got caught up in looking at road cuts … clearly too caught up and looking at details, since I noticed this … 😆😆 #AmISeeingDouble

Since you guys like this tree as much as I do, here it is in Summer, the gnarly trunk leading us up to a canopy of leaves that are shrouded in mist.

December 13, 1730, birthday of British politician Sir William Hamilton. As a diplomat in Naples he got so interested in Mount Vesuvius that he published a study on the #volcano illustrated with stunning artwork 🌋

Out today, my short piece in Nature Medicine about what scientists can do as authors to combat misinformation and disinformation about their own work.

Is this a coincidence? Maybe. Maybe not. The volcanoes are not directly connected, but might "feel" one another via stress effects. Mauna Loa's eruption could have allowed Kīlauea to "relax." That said, Kīlauea's eruption was already pretty tenuous, occurring at very low rates.

Huh. HVO is reporting that both Mauna Loa and Kīlauea in Hawaii are no longer erupting. Both eruptions ceased in the past day. https://www.usgs.gov/observatories/hvo #volcano #eruption

13 December 1943 | A French Jewish boy Leon Herbstman was born in Vichy.

On 13 April 1944, he was deported from Drancy to Auschwitz in a group of 1,500 Jews. On 16 April 1944, he was murdered in a gas chamber together with his mom Frida and father Henri.

He was 4 months old.
