what happens if the tornado takes your house: to my understanding, your state usually applies for/gets government funding, though how well that goes usually depends on how much of a shitheel your governer&co are. iirc there was a whole thing about this with one of the big hurricaines, right? funnily enough my area is not known for being prone to tornadoes! there is actually growing suspicion that due to global warming and the effects on cold and warm fronts etc, tornado alley is expanding north and east to include more of the midwest, and now includes my part of it. đ we have had like 10-12 tornado warnings so far this year, i've genuinely lost count and tornado season here goes into late summer. send help lmao. if you mean structurally, depends on the strength of the tornado. even if you're not shattered to foundation, the foundation might have gotten shifted/rattled so might not be structurally sound anymore, so like... staying in your house before a pro comes to look at it if the storm was close enough to inflict any damage is always a gamble cause something might give out while you're in it đŹ
it's better if you have family or close friends near to you but outside the disaster area, or if you can afford to stay in a hotel similarly close but not affected, get a rental car if yours was hit, etc. some might choose to stay with people in town whose houses weren't hit, if available, to share their resources and help get the community back on its feet. if not... some people take the long commute and the job security, and some people decide to risk it all, quit their jobs and relocate. i would imagine this is more common in areas generally thought of as high tornado incidence...
(i actually have to start caring bc possible tornado shenanigans will be near me)
i am so sorry đŹđ i've been given advice abt finding a new place and have been warned against tornado shenanigans, like a whole swath of the real estate map x-ed out for me
ig it's especially rough for you if your area isn't used to having tornadoes and now... it's like how a lot of the sf bay area can't quite deal with the floods in the recent years bc it's been so dry for so long (both the infrastructure and environment)

Alaskaâs Iconic Columbia Glacier Still Retreats
The Columbia Glacier in southern Alaska has long been an archetype of the worldâs most rapidly changing glaciers. Today, additional tidewater glaciers across the planet have garnered attention from scientists for their collective potential to contribute to sea level rise. In the meantime, the remainder of Columbia Glacier has continued its decades-long course of retreat and thinning.
The ice of a tidewater glacier originates on land and flows downslope into seawater, where the glacier loses mass through the calving of icebergs. Columbiaâs ice descends from an icefield 3,050 meters (10,000 feet) above sea level, down the flanks of the Chugach Mountains, and into a fjord that leads into Prince William Sound. The glacier once reached south across Columbia Bay to Heather Island. But since the 1980s, it has lost more than half of its total thickness and volume, and its front has retreated more than 20 kilometers (12 miles) north into the bay.
These images (above) reveal some of the more recent changes, showing the glacierâs position during the summers of 2019 (TOP) and 2024 (LOWER). Both images were acquired with the OLI (Operational Land Imager) on Landsat 8.
Notable changes persist on the glacierâs Main Branch and West Branch. (The glacier split into these two branches around 2011.) The Main Branch was constricted for several years by the rocky outcrop north of the Great Nunatak, visible in 2016 in the photograph below. Christopher McNeil, a geophysicist at the U.S. Geological Survey, pointed out that the Main Branch has since pulled away from this pinning point.
âThat peninsula represented a constriction point for the glacier in the 2019 image,â McNeil said. âSince retreating back, the calving face has less constraint and thus a more unstable configuration.â
The West Branch appears to have already lost its tidewater terminus by 2019, as suggested that year by Shad OâNeel, a glaciologist at the Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory. That means it no longer reaches fjord waters where it once spawned icebergs, as the Main Branch continues to do. âThe fjord size looks relatively constant through the past few years, but you can see a lot of terrestrial retreat now,â OâNeel said. âIt looks like a lot of new gravelly real estate.â
The rapid retreat of glaciers like Columbia can leave the surrounding land unstable. âEntire mountainsides once held back by a glacierâs ice can start to move, increasing the risk of landslides and subsequent tsunamis for coastal communities, local fishers, and shipping lanes,â McNeil said.
Tidewater glaciers tend to cycle between periods of advance and retreat. The position of a glacierâs terminus and its rate of retreat are influenced by factors such as fjord shape, sea level change, iceberg calving, and water and air temperature. These dynamics can mitigate or reinforce the effects of climate, making tidewater glaciers highly variable in how rapidly they respond to climate change.
Mauri Pelto, a glaciologist at Nichols College, noted that increases in melt-accelerating feedbacks have contributed to the rapid losses observed at Columbia Glacier. A similar scenario is unfolding elsewhere in Alaska, including at Taku Glacier and Muir Inletâs East Arm. And roughly 15,000 kilometers away, tidewater glaciers in West Antarctica have come under scientific focus for the changes occurring there.
âThe wider implication of tidewater glaciers like Columbia is that they have the ability to rapidly contribute to sea level riseâmuch faster than their land terminating counterparts,â McNeil said. âHowever, not all tidewater glaciers have the same configuration as Columbia Glacier, so improving our understanding of the forcings of tidewater glaciers could help further constrain sea level rise projections from these glacier changes globally.â
View the related World of Change story to see these images in context with changes at Columbia Glacier since 1986.

After the closure of their flagship shopping location in Winnipeg in 2020, whatâs going on with Canadaâs beloved retail department store, the former fur trade monopoly leader, once a central force in the British Empireâs control of North America, the Hudsonâs Bay Company? The empire lives on, continuing to control land through Canadian and US real estate companies. Liquidating real estate can keep the money and keep the land in the same hands.
Regarding the decline of the oldest European company in North America, and ânewâ manifestations of imperialist conceptions of land: I wanted to summarize the reporting work of Don Gillmor, in an article for The Walrus published in January 2023. (Credit to Gillmor for piecing together these threads of thought and framing the story, here.)
So the âoldest company in North Americaâ is the Hudsonâs Bay Company. After chartering in the 1670s, HBC âownedâ vast stretches of land and was central to British and later Canadian control of âthe West,â and then enjoyed decades of celebration in the twentieth century as a retail department store chain. HBCâs flagship store in Winnipeg was finally closed in November 2020. At the time, commercial real estate firms âvalued the building at $0.â As Gillmor puts it: âMillions of Canadians grew up with the Hudsonâs Bay Company as a place to buy towels and clothes, but land has always been at the heart of HBC. Canadaâs oldest company began as a land deal (at least from the European perspective) during an outbreak of the bubonic plague and may end as a real estate deal in another plague.â
---
In 2022, as part of what many observers and some Indigenous critics considered a superficial public relations campaign, HBC âgiftedâ the 500,000 square-foot downtown Winnipeg building to the Southern Chiefsâ Organization, an âalliance of southern First Nations communities in Manitoba.â Critics havenât all been impressed.
Here, Gillmor cites some local commentary: â[A]n episode of Media Indigena, a podcast broadcast from Winnipeg by journalist Rick Harp, [...] offered another perspective. A guest, Kenneth Williams, an assistant professor with the University of Albertaâs department of drama, suggested that, as reparations, it wasnât enough. HBC exploited Indigenous people for centuries [...]. And the Winnipeg store was ground zero for this trade, with the largest fur storage facility in western Canada, a vault that could hold 12,000 furs. Williams suggested âthe inspired act of reclamationâ was merely HBC getting rid of a toxic asset.â
Current HBC governor and chairman, Richard Baker, seems to be purposely liquidating HBCâs assets, to cash out, so to speak. In a 2020 interview, Baker said: âWeâre not a department store chain. Weâre a holding company that owns many billions of dollars of real estate.â
---
Since inception, it been all about land.
So the âcompanyâs roots can be traced back to 1665âł when Pierre-Espirit Radisson traveled to London to ask for the financial backing of King Charles II. This was the same year that up to one-fifth of Londonâs population had died during an outbreak of bubonic plague. By 1670, King Charles II âgranted the charter that started the Hudsonâs Bay Company, but the ownership of the land was largely an abstraction. He had no idea of its size and viewed it as a commodity. [...] The imbalance of power meant that the colonizerâs mercantile philosophiesâ including apparent human detachment from and lordship over land âbecame the foundationâ for British imperial power in Canada.
---
In 1867, âthe Dominion of Canada was formed, but much of the west was still controlled by HBC.â In that same year, âthe Americans bought Alaska from the Russians,â and so, to compete with the United States, both the British government and infamous Canadian prime minister Macdonald pressured HBC to sell much of western North America to the Canadian government at a discount price, giving Canada so-called âownershipâ of a massive stretch of land "twice the size of Alaska.â
---
And now, the chairman of HBC is cashing out. And the Empireâs found new ways to mask its activities while still keeping land in the same hands.
According to Gillmor: âIn 2012, he took the company public and acquired the upscale department store Saks [...]. In March 2020, [...] Baker won his bid to take the company private once more [...]. In Canada, the last of the big homegrown department stores (Simpsonâs, Eatonâs, Sears, and Zellers) were all gone. In the US, Macyâs was closing stores; Neiman Marcus, Barneys, JCPenney had all filed for bankruptcy [...]. Mark Cohen, director of retail studies at Columbia University and a former CEO of Sears Canada, saw it as a thinly veiled strategy to strip the assets of HBC so only the real estate remained [...]. âItâs a Âfinancial play,â he said, âwhich gives him the ability to manipulate the real estate assets of Hudsonâs Bay, both in Canada and the US.â [...] âBaker will liquidate the Bay,â Cohen predicted. âHe will liquidate.â If he does -- its Bay Days sales and Stanfield underwear finally gone -- all that will be left will be the land. Currently, it is controlled by deeds, leaseholds, and leases that are shared by Baker, venture capitalists, equity partners [...].â
Meaning that the future of the HBC stores and other properties across North America remains similar to the initial colonization project. Again from Gillmor: â[T]his version of the land echoes that of the seventeenth century: its ownership [...] complex [...] and profiting someone in another country.â
Land profited kings. Land now profits CEOs and venture capitalists and property management companies.
---
All quotes above were excerpted from Gillmorâs article: Don Gillmor. âWhy Hudsonâs Bay Companyâs Future Is in Question.â The Walrus. 4 January 2023. [Bold emphasis added by me.]
---
Related.
In an article from October 2020, on the eve of the Winnipeg storeâs closure, Manitoba-based reporter Niigaan Sinclair offered some commentary. Following quote from: Niigaan Sinclair. âRight place, right time: Downtown Bay building a monument to colonizationâs brutality, but it could be transformed into a place of Indigenous positvity, reconciliation.â Winnipeg Free Press. 5 October 2020.
Three-and-a-half centuries after Hudsonâs Bay Co. received its first charter -- giving Prince Rupert and his âCompany of Adventurerâs of Englandâ an exclusive trading monopoly over the entire Hudson Bay drainage basin -- itâs biggest symbol of colonization is coming to an end. [...] [T]he company plans to close its six-storey flagship store at Portage Avenue and Memorial Boulevard, literally Canadaâs gateway to the West. So this is how colonization ends. The people who profit the most take all they can from the land and people within it, and then quietly leave when thereâs nothing left to take. Soon, all that will be left is an empty [...] pile of plaster and metal that will cost millions to repair or remove for those who actually live here. Really, though, this is how colonization continues. HBC is not a retail empire -- never really was -- but a massive real estate company. Just as King Charles II gave Prince Rupert lands that were not his to give, HBC holds deeds to billions of dollars of global property [...] and will march on. [...] HBCâs legacy of exploitation, violence and theft is permanent, though. HBC began with profits from the slave trade and cheap goods from the British colonies. It was instrumental in manufacturing goods for the Commonwealth [...]. Alongside were billions built off Indigenous lands and resources.

Hyrule Geography in All That Hurts Us
I'm going to spare you a mangled map - I am not good at editing pictures.
But, basically, I'm using the BotW map, except:
More room for settlements because although BotW didn't do the old RPG game thing and have a tile on the map that expanded into a town when you walked over it, it also, quite sensibly, didn't waste a ton of real estate on each set of ruins. Even Castle Town is a pretty small town. For All That Hurts Us, I'm allowing a lot of towns and villages and letting them be bigger, and just assuming the map is stretched as needed. Maritta is a good example: in BotW, you will find the Maritta Exchange Ruins East of Ludfos bog, just under Tanagar Canyon. In All That Hurts Us, there is a town there called Maritta, but it's bigger than the ruins (the ruins are just a few buildings). Castle Town is also way bigger, big enough to have several distinct neighborhoods.
I'm assuming the Hyrule Rauru and Sonia founded was not the first one, but occurred after all the games except BotW. This was hinted to be a possibility by the Zelda team, and it's my preferred scenario. Therefore, much like in the Hyrules of Ocarina of Time and every other games prior to BotW, there are no Zonai ruins.
The Tingle Islands have some land closer to the Ocean than in the games, allowing for a bit more living and farming space, but are still very, very hilly. They're not called the Tingle Islands (see below for their current name).
The Great Plateau and Castle Town are in pretty much the same spot, not necessarily exactly in the case of the Castle - it's not hiding Ganondorf after all since this is pre-Zonai - but close enough. It's mentionned that there are at least two even older castle towns and castle ruins buried under the plateau, and that the current one is also built atop at least one older one. The idea is that the capital tends to switch back and forth.
Some areas, like the Tingle Islands, are different due to thousands of years having passed and geography naturally evolving with erosion and people's actions. For instance, there is still a Goron City on Death Mountain but it's the one from Ocarina of time, expanded, rather than a surface village like in BotW. Goron City is acknowledged to have been deserted for periods of time through history (because I want to be consistent with the fact there are no Gorons in A Link to the Past because I am just like that).
I haven't actually decided where the Lost Woods were. I haven't needed to pin them down so far so I'm leaving it open but they currently include the scant ruins of the old Forest Temple. The assumption, and that's in the text as well, is that they move when the newest Deku Tree sprouts in a new location.
The Sea Folks were given land that was not otherwise used and was widely considered undesirable. Settlements and their rough locations are:
Given, small village, on what's called the "Tingle Islands" in BotW. The main island, with the bridge to the mainland, is the northernmost one and some of the islands are still connected that aren't by the time of BotW.
Beginning is the biggest Sea Folks settlement, qualifies as a small town rather than a village. It's located in the marshy part of Hyrule fields, with man made islands and floating farm fields.
Haven is in the North Western part of Tabantha
Dawn is towards the south of the East Coast, blocked by the sea on one side and cliffs on the other. I'm currently thinking Kitano Bay.
Hope is on the hills forming the eastern border to Gerudo desert, overlooking the Oseira Plains.
There are two more, Life and a so far unnamed one. I haven't settled on their locations yet.
The Sea Folks gave their settlements names showing their gratitude for being given a chance at life in Hyrule after they barely escaped complete genocide in their former home.

British Columbia is expanding the tax it created to clamp down on real estate speculation and ensure homes in rental-strapped communities donât sit empty.
A statement from the Ministry of Finance says the Speculation and Vacancy Tax now includes the municipalities of North Cowichan, Duncan, Ladysmith, Lake Cowichan, Lions Bay and Squamish.
Starting early next year, homeowners in those areas will join owners in 40 other B.C. cities, districts and towns who are required to declare how their property was used in 2023.
The statement says 99 per cent of people who live in B.C., can expect to be exempt for the 2023 tax year, but homeowners in the new municipalities, along with those already covered by the tax, must make formal declarations in the new year.

"[University of California, San Francisco] is trying to isolate and marginalize me. Medicine residents are complaining that leadership will not allow me to speak in antiracism forums because they characterize me as âcontroversial.â But I am not some outlier of medicine. I am a part of its history of correction. Judging by the sheer numbers of medical students who reach out to me from around the country to ask for mentorship, to work alongside me, and who come to UCSF specifically because of my work, I am part of a movement bringing forward ideas that are a postcard from the future, that were gifted to me by the loving relationships of the communities who teach me and who I serve. These are ideas that call for radical inquiry into why medicine doesnât serve all, despite 20 years of investment into so-called âhealth equity.â These are ideas that look unflinchingly into the violence of our past and the present to map a better world without violence in the future, so that all may be healthy. These are ideas that bring analysis of critical pedagogies into medicine, insisting upon an understanding of how history and power are shaping the health outcomes we see. This is not comfortable work. But it is necessary if we want to see all people thrive and live the lives they truly deserve. My understanding of health equity and justice comes from decades of being a part of and serving communities in the struggle for our collective liberation. I realize there are not too many physicians in the academy who spend as much time as I have in frontline struggles â listening to families who have lost their loved ones to racist police violence, which continues to grow in the U.S., and standing together with Indigenous people who are resisting a pipeline through their water, or a real estate development going up on their sacred site. Today, experts with institutional roles in health equity are notably silent about the genocide in Gaza, which speaks volumes about their allegiance to power rather than their commitment to end inequities. I do not learn about health equity from reading books, attending conferences or holding journal clubs. I learn about health equity through building solidarity and living in lockstep with the communities I serve and to whom I belong, through the practice of Deep Medicine. My understanding of health is shaped by the survivors of genocide working to get their land back in Ohlone territory where I was born and where I work. It is sharpened by La Via Campesinaâs peasant farming movement, the legacy of the Black Panther Party, the Waoraniâs struggle to hold oil companies responsible for the pollution of the Amazon, the families of Oscar Grant, Mario Woods and Alex Nieto, all killed by Bay Area police, the family at Poor Magazine, disability justice movements and survivors of medical violence, and the Indigenous-led pipeline resistance, which has been the most effective tactic to lower greenhouse gas emissions in North America. My work is shaped by many people who work in service of ending apartheid in Palestine and bringing a future with equal rights for all."

After they were given the Wolfâs Den, how many generations do you think it would have taken for House Manderly to score marriages with House Stark, whether that be Stark daughters heading over to White Harbor or Manderlyâs marrying into the main Stark line at Winterfell? Likewise, would House Manderly have initially struggled to make inroads with the Umbers, Karstarks, Hornwoods, etc, and possibly being forced to make marriages with houses from the Vale, Riverlands or even families around Blackwater Bay?
I don't know about the first one.
As to the second, I don't think the Manderlys would have been shunned in the marriage department given they were already a quite wealthy house when they arrived in the North, especially when compared to the Northern houses and were given prime real estate with White Harbor, the North's premier port at the mouth of the White Knife. Add to that by Manderly's admission, they commanded more heavy horse than any other Northern lord. Being one of the wealthiest and most powerful lords in the North would likely make any other Northern house overlook the Manderly's southron origins and the fact they worshipped the Seven for the political advantages of marrying into them.

Key Elements to Examine Before Making a Property Purchase
Buying a house is a significant milestone in one's life. Whether it is your first home or an upgrade to a new property, it is essential to conduct a thorough inspection before making the final decision. By examining key aspects of the house featured in North Bay real estate listings, you can ensure that you are investing in a property that meets your needs and avoids potential pitfalls down the line. Here are the top things you should check in a house before you buy it.
Structural Integrity
The structural integrity of a house is paramount. Inspect the foundation for any signs of cracks, water damage, or uneven settling. Look for sagging ceilings, sloping floors, or gaps around windows and doors. Hire a professional inspector if necessary to assess the overall structural stability and identify any red flags.
Electrical and Plumbing Systems
Ensuring that the electrical and plumbing systems are in good working condition is crucial. Test all light switches, power outlets, and fixtures to ensure they function properly. Check for any signs of outdated or faulty wiring. Inspect the plumbing for leaks, water pressure, and drainage issues. Faulty electrical or plumbing systems can lead to significant expenses and inconvenience after purchasing a house.
Neighborhood and Location
When buying any of the Thunder Bay homes for sale, it is essential to consider the neighborhood and location. Research the local amenities, schools, crime rates, and proximity to your workplace or other essential places. Visit the neighborhood during different times of the day to get a sense of the noise levels, traffic, and overall ambiance. Choosing the right neighborhood and location will enhance your quality of life and contribute to the long-term value of your property.
Roof and Exterior
The condition of the roof and exterior should not be overlooked. Check for missing shingles, signs of leaks, or damage. Inspect the gutters and downspouts to ensure they are intact and functioning correctly. Examine the siding, paint, and overall exterior condition. A well-maintained roof and exterior will protect your investment and save you from potential repair costs in the future.
Buying a house is a significant investment, and it is essential to conduct a diligent inspection before making a final decision. Hiring a realtor will help you to get invaluable guidance throughout the process, ensuring a smooth and successful home-buying experience.

Maryland (US: /ËmÉrÉȘlÉnd/ (listen) MERR-il-Énd)[b] is a state in the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States.[10][11] It shares borders with Virginia, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia to its south and west; Pennsylvania to its north; and Delaware and the Atlantic Ocean to its east. Baltimore[12] is the largest city in the state, and the capital is Annapolis. Among its occasional nicknames are Old Line State, the Free State, and the Chesapeake Bay State. It is named after Henrietta Maria, the French-born queen of England, Scotland, and Ireland, who was known then in England as Mary.[13][14]
Before its coastline was explored by Europeans in the 16th century, Maryland was inhabited by several groups of Native Americans â mostly by Algonquian peoples and, to a lesser degree, Iroquoian and Siouan.[15] As one of the original Thirteen Colonies of England, Maryland was founded by George Calvert, 1st Baron Baltimore, a Catholic convert[16][17] who sought to provide a religious haven for Catholics persecuted in England.[18] In 1632, Charles I of England granted Lord Baltimore a colonial charter, naming the colony after his wife, Henrietta Maria.[19] Unlike the Pilgrims and Puritans, who rejected Catholicism in their settlements, Lord Baltimore envisioned a colony where people of different religious sects would coexist under the principle of toleration.[18] Accordingly, in 1649 the Maryland General Assembly passed an Act Concerning Religion, which enshrined this principle by penalizing anyone who "reproached" a fellow Marylander based on religious affiliation.[20] Nevertheless, religious strife was common in the early years, and Catholics remained a minority, albeit in greater numbers than in any other English colony.
Maryland's early settlements and population centers clustered around rivers and other waterways that empty into the Chesapeake Bay. Its economy was heavily plantation-based and centered mostly on the cultivation of tobacco. Demand for cheap labor from Maryland colonists led to the importation of numerous indentured servants and enslaved Africans. In 1760, Maryland's current boundaries took form following the settlement of a long-running border dispute with Pennsylvania. Maryland was an active participant in the events leading up to the American Revolution, and by 1776, its delegates signed the Declaration of Independence. Many of its citizens subsequently played key political and military roles in the war. In 1790, the state ceded land for the establishment of the U.S. capital of Washington, D.C.
Although then a slave state, Maryland remained in the Union during the American Civil War, its strategic location giving it a significant role in the conflict. After the Civil War, Maryland took part in the Industrial Revolution, driven by its seaports, railroad networks, and mass immigration from Europe. Since the 1940s, the state's population has grown rapidly, to approximately six million residents, and it is among the most densely populated U.S. states. As of 2015, Maryland had the highest median household income of any state, owing in large part to its proximity to Washington, D.C., and a highly diversified economy spanning manufacturing, retail services, public administration, real estate, higher education, information technology, defense contracting, health care, and biotechnology.[21] The state's central role in U.S. history is reflected by its hosting of some of the highest numbers of historic landmarks per capita.
Sixteen of Maryland's twenty-three counties, as well as the city of Baltimore, border the tidal waters of the Chesapeake Bay estuary and its many tributaries,[22][12] which combined total more than 4,000 miles of shoreline. Although one of the smallest states in the U.S., it features a variety of climates and topographical features that have earned it the moniker of America in Miniature.[23] In a similar vein, Maryland's geography, culture, and history combine elements of the Mid-Atlantic, Northeastern, and Southern regions of the country.
