Inver - relief map relative to the continent with otherworld territory marked, broad habitat map, detailed local landmarks map, and political map of the northeast atlantic peninsula as of 1862
i was just having map fun for two days lol. i make habitat maps a lot already but the difference with this one is that i can't just download a handy shapefile and do some GIS magic. this was hand drawn (but obviously. somewhat traced over the actual irl map)
for the outline of the north sea coast i used bathymetry data to figure out where the true coastline would occur. the north sea recedes but the atlantic doesn't (to the same extent). because this landmass was formed through some ancient Event, i felt pretty okay about changing the bedrock because like, whatever, we can't be fully realist all the time. so the northern half of inver is mainly limestone, the southern half is silicaceous - so we got the bog/marl divide there, though lough cánamac (in volume slightly larger than any of the north american great lakes) appears to be the remnant of the north sea, it is freshwater with a relatively low pH. the water of the lough is black to dark brown due to the run-off from the southern bogs and swamps.
in the north, the mountain ranges are calcareous. calcareous grassland, scrubland, heaths and fens dominate with a largely alkaline profile. limestone marl lakes which regularly flood due to groundwater input make the region pretty unsuitable for crops other than rice.
the ruad is the name for a stretch of otherworld territory which contains the lough, though generally used to refer to the forested area. it is completely uninhabitable throughout the majority of its range due to the non-euclidian structure of the land making it impossible to navigate consistently, and the strange and frequently hostile creatures living there. the ruad is faery territory and belongs to an entity known as the Red King, who uses the symbol of a stag. so although inver may look like a large country compared to its neighbours, it has a relatively small population concentrated on the west coast.
however, sailing across the lough is the quickest way to trade with countries in the east, far quicker than trekking through the forest and over land. the trade route through the ruad from invergorken to the cánamac town is one of the most valuable in the continent. it consists of an old road with regularly-spaced ranger safehouses and patrols, and a newer pair of railway lines which can cut through the supernatural aura of the ruad due to their iron rails. the first and older line is no longer in regular use. it was constructed before the development of wrought iron and before the build crews learned how to blast through rock, so it takes a very slow and winding route and required a lot of maintenance. safehouses were constructed to board the workers while the tracks were laid. but without this original track, the construction of the second, far more advanced wrought iron track would have been impossible. workers for the second track were able to commute and sleep on the first track's train, keeping them from harm. the second track can fit two trains side by side and is in constant use ferrying cargo and passengers between the two towns
the country of inver, once The Event wiped out all of its original inhabitants a couple thousand years ago, was settled by hibernians and vikings from the north moving south, and aquitanians from the south moving north (thus the place names). the ruad mostly blocked incursions from the east. there was a long history of dispute over who truly owned the land, and that remained sort of up in the air for most of its history until the 1400s when armorican warlords (like Olivier) decided to make it theirs for realsies and waged war against their old hibernian trade partners (like Finbarr) for control of the land. the hibernians lost because finbarr fucked it up at the last second, and this cemented a ruling class of werewolves in inver until the 1860s
inver consists of three large duchies which cover 70% of the population. Moya in the west is the heart of lycanthrope rule, everybody worships a faery known as the immortal hound and the ruad is far enough away that it is not a fact of life as it is for everyone else. Inver duchy covers the capital city and the south-western farmland, the main sites of production in the country. And Cánamac duchy covers the trade port in the lough and surrounding territories, where forest clearing has led to new farmland and a thriving population. There was a fourth duchy in the north, Aber, but it was historically somewhat isolated and cut off from the south of the country and had developed its own customs and traditions, and its own form of the country's currency. In the 1840s, the duchy of Aber was dissolved and reconstituted into the king's lands, and southern customs were enforced in the north to prevent any more divergence. the palaces of the ruling families in each territory are shown in the local map alongside the family names.
Due to The Event causing massive damage in this region of Europe, forbidding the development of britain and france etc as colonial empires, the last great Empire of this continent was the roman empire, and even that didn't manage to overcome the Ruad. technology is rudimentary in Inver and the people living there are largely considered to be weird backwards superstitious barbarians. aquitan has been threatening annexation for decades, led mainly by the church of suzette, which forbids interaction with otherworld entities. the church holds in disregard the nobility of inver and their cultish ways, and as a result has been banned from attempting to convert inver citizens. but the church is still allowed to make minor inroads into inver for one very important reason: penicillin and antibiotics are the sole creation of the church, and the secret of how they are made is unknown outside suzette. so for the sake of good, advanced healthcare, the church is allowed to set up clinics and hospitals, on the condition that nobody is converted, and members of the church are strictly banned from engaging in any business but importing and selling antibiotics

There's actually an iNat observation of D. spatulata growing in a *mat of algae* over a deep pool of water in SE Australia.
By the numbers, most sundews prefer wet (at least seasonally), substrates composed of silicaceous sand or granite, with some peaty organic matter, but not too much....
...and there's spatulata.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Tropical sundew like spatulata can only live in a strict kind of water (like almost all carnivorous plants) but they're otherwise so hardy I didn't notice a little speck size seedling must've got stuck to the glass when I last opened this tank months ago and it's just been growing like that

What are High Temperature Cables?
The Question of the Day is "What are High Temperature Cables?”
Answer: Household Cables are mostly made of PVC which can usually withstand up to 50 to 60 deg C. They are usually enough for household as they are concealed in wall with the bricks and mortar. When it comes to Industrial Cables, they require quite a high temperature, we make cables which can withstand up to 1000 degree C. you can use them in Heaters, Furnaces, Protection of Electrical Equipment and many Industrial applications.

maybe it’s rather improper, but let’s take a look through the crew quarters. push slowly along the corridor, peering into the cubby shaped slices of each crewmate’s life?
first up, I think this belongs to that catgirl, some sort of systems tech maybe? The opening of the door disturbs some unsecured empty treat bags which had previously settled against the top wall. unfolded clothes strapped half-heartedly to the walls. there’s plenty of blankets, but you can’t find the bed. There are a good number of personal photos in here too, unframed, but clear of clutter.
Now we have....I don’t know whose this one is? Maybe that doggirl scientist-type? Inside...ah. the back wall, and half the top wall, are covered in pin-up posters. a fat foxgirl with an intense expression in some weird all black get-up, a buff wolfgirl with a cocky expression wearing nothing but shorts, a lanky weaselgirl lounging lazily and smoking something, wearing nothing. So forth. There’s also a lot models and figurines. Characters from things I’ve probably never even heard of, but also models of ships, modern, historical, and even a number of ancient seaships.
Next one is that coyotegirl’s, whatever it is she does. The entire bottom wall is filled with statues and idols to deities familiar and foreign both to me. There’s an earthy smell lingering in here. The bed on the top wall is neat and spartan, and there are simple storage containers taking up most of the remaining space.
This one is....I don’t have any idea?!? Inside....every centimeter covered with an orderly coating of cables? where do these even go? what do they even do? there’s little else in here. some sort of metal puzzle cube, a little novelty, a small box, some folders.....
Here, this belongs to that pikagirl maid’s. Lovely pink sheets on the bed, reproductions of some art you recognize... Fancy glass cases filled with a large rock collection. Silicaceous stuff, a nice widmanstattened piece, a thin slice of pallasite with a little lamp behind it, and plenty of differentiated stuff too, large, slowly formed crystals, stuff that needed water to form that way. A great, diverse, collection to be sure, I’ll have to ask her about it next time I see her...
Next....oh!!! Uh, sorry ladies!
Um...now...right, this one is that snakegirl engineer’s. The big screen taking up the back wall is set to one of real time scene things. It’s daytime in it now. An open area meets a dark mess of various different trees. There is a dirt path next to a low wall, no, sorry, a fence. A blue atmosphere filled with white clouds is at the top of the image. Season? Um, I think this would be spring? late spring? Velcroed next to the bed is a brass mechanical clock, the kind powered by winding a spring. A stack of drawing paper and supplies is strapped down, the top drawing shows...you think it’s the pond from the garden at the last station.

02/10/2022 Feast Day of Persian Goddess Anahita, also known as Anaitis (Greek: Ἀναῖτις) & Anahit (Armenian): Iranian water goddess. The Greeks recognized her as a moon goddess & identified her with their Aphrodite or Artemis. ... In Sasanian Persia, Anahita was also seen as protector of families, while the Armenians believed she protected wisdom. In @zoroastrianism_religion she is Yazata. The Greek & Roman historians of classical antiquity refer to her either as Anaïtis or identified her with one of the divinities from their own pantheons. 270 Anahita, a silicaceous S-type asteroid, is named after her. Based on the development of her cult, she was described as a syncretistic goddess, who was composed of two independent elements. The first is a manifestation of the Indo-Iranian idea of the Heavenly River who provides the waters to the rivers & streams flowing in the earth while the second is that of a goddess of uncertain origin, tho maintaining her own unique characteristics, who became associated with the cult of the ancient Mesopotamian  goddess Inanna-Ishtar. According to one theory, this arose partly from a desire to make Anahita part of Zoroastrianism  following the diffusion of her cult from the extreme northwest into the rest of Persia. According to H Lommel, the proper name of the divinity in Indo-Iranian times was Sarasvatī, which also means "she who possesses waters" In Sanskrit, the name आर्द्रावी शूरा अनाहिता (Ārdrāvī Śūrā Anāhitā) means "of the waters, mighty, & immaculate". Like the Indian Sarasvatī, Anāhitā nurtures crops & herds; & she is hailed both as a divinity & as the mythical river which she personifies, "as great in bigness as all these waters which flow forth upon the earth" (Yasht 5.3).

What is the difference between Silica Yarn and Ceramic Yarn?
The Question of the Day is "What is the difference between Silica Yarn and Ceramic Yarn?”
youtube
Answer: Silica Yarn and Ceramic Yarns are both used in Cables, they both have a High Temperature Resistance. Now, Silica Yarns are very smooth Yarns. Whereas, ceramic yarns are rough course yarns. Silica yarns are made from Silica Filaments and Ceramic Yarn is made from mineral wool. Now, the problem with mineral wool is it contains ASBESTOS. This Asbestos is highly cancerous, so it is not safe to use Ceramic Yarns.

KSP Weekly: The Asteroid Miners
Tumblr media
Welcome to KSP Weekly! Fan-favorite astrophysicist, Neil deGrasse Tyson, predicts that the world’s first trillionaire will be an asteroid miner. Asteroids are leftover material from the formation of the solar system and range from around a meter to hundreds of kilometers in diameter. Being the primordial building block of rocky planets, asteroids are very rich in mineral resources. If we are to sustainably keep growing economically and technologically, we will have to look up to this natural resource that has never been touched, is effectively inexhaustible, and has a value large enough to disrupt entire economies. There are three main types of asteroids in our solar system: Type C-type (carbonaceous) are the most abundant, accounting for more than 75 percent of known asteroids. These types of asteroids probably consist of clay and silicate rocks, and are dark in appearance. They are among the most ancient objects in the solar system.  S-type (silicaceous) asteroids follow in second place accounting for about 17 percent and are mostly made up of metallic iron mixed with iron- and Magnesium-silicates. Finally, there are M-type (metallic) asteroids, which are composed mainly of nickel, iron and other heavy elements. These are leftover cores of larger asteroids that were destroyed by collisions. If an asteroid is big enough it will undergo a process called differentiation. A process that happens during an asteroid’s formation when the heavier elements sink to its center. Although all these materials are plentiful on Earth, metals in particular are more accessible in asteroids, since the differentiation process happened in Earth as well, putting most of those valuable resources deep within our planet’s core.
Asteroid mining is not a simple endeavor: it would take years of work by dedicated engineers and scientists and billions of dollars to extract useful and profitable asteroid material. While all asteroids are potentially profitable, the right combination of valuable contents, mission essential resources, and accessibility is key. A perfect asteroid to mine has a decent amount of water, a high abundance of valuable materials, and is large enough to be worth the effort and accessible by an economical spacecraft. With this in mind, the first asteroid miners will probably look for a near-earth asteroid. Identifying the ERO (Easily Recoverable Object) is the current focus of effort of companies like Planetary Resources and Deep Space Industries, who are developing robotic prospector spacecraft for this purpose.
The extraction of platinum group elements and rare earths from asteroids might be the most lucrative. Both are essential in the production of electronic components, batteries and fuel cells, magnets, as chemical catalysts and reagents, and a huge range of advanced materials. Iron, nickel, aluminum and titanium, on the other hand might not be cost effective to bring back to Earth, but could be useful for the mining process itself as it could go into building infrastructure in space, including more asteroid mining facilities. Water is also abundant in asteroids, which can be dissociated into hydrogen and oxygen, becoming rocket fuel. In the long haul, there are even proposals to farm on asteroids, as it could end up being more cost efficient to provide food for long term missions, and “c-type” asteroids are known to be packed with organic compounds and soluble nutrients.
Once the enterprise proves to be profitable, we could see a real development and economic explosion, and maybe in a few decades there will be various mining outposts in the Asteroid Belt. Kerbals realized this a while ago and Kerbodyne even developed the “Drill-O-Matic” Mining Excavator with this in mind. How many asteroids have you mined so far?
[Development news start here]
This week the team focused mainly on bug-fixing tasks. With the help of the community, the focus group team and QA testing teams identified various issues that needed attention and several have been solved and are ready to be merged into an upcoming patch.
Some solved issues are related to Steam Workshop. We talked about a couple of them last week, and in the past few days, the team managed to solve a couple more, among which there was a bug that prevented some ships from being selected in the VAB Steam Tab, forcing players to subscribe via the Steam Workshop page. There was another one that impeded the prompt update of Steam item statuses or showed incorrect information. Although a part of the problem can be attributed to delays with remote servers, there was indeed a conflict that was luckily identified and corrected.
Likewise, the team also solved some Making History Expansion issues. Among these, the team fixed a bug related to the Mission Award system, which prevented the “Boldly Going” award to show up and caused the “Homesick” award to appear when it shouldn’t. The problem for this one was that the node distance checking never started because it asked the vessel to launch, then land, and then launch again in order to meet a certain distance from the target. Additionally, the team fixed a NullReferenceException issue that was triggered after using “Vessel Explode” node on an unfocused craft within physics range, as well as a bug that prevented users to delete missions from the in-game interface. The “Landed Vessel” node also presented some issues, as it didn’t mark the node completion when some facilities were set as the landing location.
Moreover, we managed to fix a bug that froze the game when the Mini Settings window was closed using the “Esc” key. Similarly, there was a game freeze problem that occurred when certain node connection configuration was made and the mission was saved in that state.
Issues related to the base game were also addressed. For instance, and as requested by the community, we adjusted the offset engine shrouds. Coupled with that, within the technology tree some part icons weren’t being displayed correctly. That’s fixed now too. Some of you might have also encountered a bug that made your crafts immediately float away and off the surface when loading into the Exploring Gilly scenario. That was solved as well.
There were some wheel related issues looked into as well. One of which caused landed vessels to jump when rovers attempted to dock with them. In like manner, a bug that caused wheel suspensions to explode when two vessels attempted to dock was fixed. Work was put into improving suspension and wheel performance particularly oscillations, bouncing and overloaded wheels.
Parallel to our work, BlitWorks has continued their maintenance work on KSP Enhanced Edition. Our testers have been continuously testing builds and helping to ensure that we can pack as many fixes and adjustments needed in these versions. We know it has taken us a while to release this patch, but it’ll be worth the wait.
Remember that you can also share and download missions on Curse, KerbalX, and the KSP Forum.
That’s it for this week. Be sure to join us on our official forums, and don’t forget to follow us on Twitter and Facebook. Stay tuned for more exciting and upcoming news and development updates!
Happy launchings!

This one’s a still life of a few different stones I’ve found. They all seem to be some type of chalcedony. I’m pretty happy with these. The first picture was taken in bad lighting, and needed a bit of wrangling in Photoshop.

3 to 7 April 2017
We learned some fantastic news about a fellow apprentice, Mark; he has been hired to a permanent post in the woodland garden. I’m very happy for him and I know he and Pin, the manager, who was also in our RHS level three course, will make a great team.
I checked on the Verbascum in the Alpine House from last week, and the fungus is almost completely gone. I’m very happy. I am no longer doing the Alpine House, it’s someone else’s turn for a few weeks.
This week we worked on three of the aquatic tanks. We drained the water and then started cleaning all the blanket weed (Spirogyra sp.) from the walls and the side of the pots. I went around and removed all the wiring on top of these Nymphae spp. and other aquatic plants; it was an attempt to prevent geese from eating the young, tender new growth...it had very limited success and has made dividing and re-potting a very big procedure.
Tumblr media
We removed the marginal plants from their plastic pots, labelled all of them, and will re-plant them in aquatic pots next week.
Tumblr media
Then the machines came in to move the heavy pots.
Tumblr media
It took a lot of coordination and it all went amazingly smoothly.
Tumblr media
They were even placed in the skip for us.
Tumblr media
Some were very pot-bound and others hardly any.
Tumblr media
We then scrubbed and cleaned out the corner ponds where the marginal plants live.
Tumblr media
We were all sore Friday and enjoyed being in our our areas of the Rock Garden, on a beautiful spring day. My tan has started!
April’s list is all temperate plants:
Aizoaceae Lampranthus aureus
Amaryllidaceae Clivia nobilis
Celastraceae Maytenus ilicifolia
Compositae (Asteraceae) Tanacetum ferulaceum (syn: Chrysanthemum ferulaceum)
Leguminosae Lotus mascaensis
Malvaceae Malva canariensis (syn: Lavatera acerifolia)
Myrtaceae Calothamnus quadrifidus
Polygalaceae Polygala myrtifolia
Rubiaceae Serissa japonica
Rutaceae Ruta oreojasme
Plant of the week...
Gentianaceae Gentiana clusii
Tumblr media
common name(s) - “trumpet gentian”, “Clusius’ gentian” synonym(s) - Ciminalis clusii (Perr. & Songeon) Holub; Gentiana acaulis var. angustifolia Griseb.; G. acaulis subsp. clusii (Perr. & Songeon) Kusn.; G. acaulis var. firmula Neilr.; G. clusii subsp. pyrenaica Vivant; G. coriacea St.-Lag.; G. firma A.Kern. IUCN conservation rating - none native to - Europe location - Rock Garden, bed 154-07-07, accession 1993-480 F N leaves - evergreen, tuffed perennial, basal rosettes of elliptic to oblong-lance-shaped, leathery, bright green leaves flowers - solitary, trumpet shaped, deep azure-blue, with paler and spotted olive-green inside in late spring and early summer (in the Alps) habit - to 50mm high and 200mm wide, habitat - central and southern Alps pests - slugs, snails (outside); aphids, red spider mites (under glass) disease - gentian rust fungus (Puccinia gentianae), various soil fungi may cause stems to rot hardiness - to -20ºC (H6) soil - calcareous; light, humus-rich, reliably moist and well-drained soil sun - full sun only where summers are cool and damp; in areas with warm, dry summers, provide shade from hot sun propagation - sow seed in containers in an open frame as soon as ripe; divide or root offsets in spring nomenclature - Gentianaceae - Gentiana - a name, γεντιανή, in Pliny attributed to King Gentius of Illyria (180-167 BC) for his discovery of its medicinal properties; clusii - for Charles de l’Écluse (Carolus Clusius) (1526-1609), Flemish renaissance botanist, author of Rariorum plantarum historia (Clusiaceae ≡ Guttiferae) NB - very similar to G. acaulis. The two species differ in the presence (G. acaulis) or absence (G. clusii) of green stripes inside the corolla, by the shape of the corners between the petals (pointed in G. clusii, more rounded in G. acaulis), but mostly in their ecology, with G. clusii preferring limestone areas, and G. acaulis being found over silicaceous rocks

What is Silica Yarn or High Temperature Yarn?
The Question of the Day is "What is Silica Yarn or High Temperature Yarn?”
Answer: Silica Yarns are made from silica filament fabrics. These yarns can operate at 980° Celsius or 1800° Fahrenheit. They can easily be used for wrapping on cables and these cables are used in furnaces and heaters where the temperature requirement is very high.
