M58 is a barred spiral galaxy located about 62 Mly away in the constellation Virgo.

As a barred spiral there is a bar of stars through its core. This is possibly caused by a density wave from the core. Whatever the cause most spirals are barred.

By Edward Hopper (1882–1967), “Eleven A.M.,” 1926, oil on canvas, Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden. #art #arthistory

Paul Richard, Washington Post, April 6, 2002: “In Edward Hopper's "Eleven A.M." (1926) time seems set adrift. This is a picture of two reveries, one hers, the other ours.  A nude sits amid draperies. Any image so familiar is bound to feel at least a little bit antique. The woman by the window lost in her own thoughts calls to mind Vermeer. Her nakedness-with-shoes suggests Manet's scandalous "Olympia." But these are fleeting references, and do not linger long. We're not in Delft or Paris. The intimate-anonymous flavor of the scene is 20th-century American. We're in a building with an elevator. The woman in the easy chair stares into an air shaft. Other lives are being lived just beyond the walls. There's no glass in the window. The viewer cannot tell if it's closed or open. Hopper seldom bothered painting in his panes. She's vulnerable. Her building's heavy, square-cut blocks accentuate the softness of her unclothed flesh. And yet we sense no danger. She's not a victim or a sex object...

Revolutionary Concrete From Drexel Melts Snow and Ice Naturally

Drexel researchers show concrete with phase-change material can warm itself when temperatures fall. There’s a patch of concrete on Drexel University’s campus that could portend a frost-free future for sidewalks and highways in the Northeast. Tucked inconspicuously next to a parking lot for the un

Some stealthed benefits of offshore turbines:

• Foundations can act as artificial reefs

• “Sheltering” effect on marine ecosystems, closing off large swaths of the ocean to shipping and fishing activity.

• Opportunity to combine offshore wind farms with aquacultural projects

Took this picture this morning before my walk. The moon was close to dropping out of sight. I got lucky that where I parked had a good view of it.

Picture of the moon, which is an orange-ish color in a dark blue sky with some tree branches in the foreground. Taken in the early morning.

#DailyPictureTheme #needle
Where I grew up, we called dragonflies "darning needles". My aunt told me that they were called that because if they came near you, they would sew you up. Like sew your arm to your side, your hand to your face or even sew your mouth shut

May we #rise like the Chrysler Building over Manhattan.

The Chrysler building in Manhattan rises against the sky above the lower buildings around it. The buildings are facing southwest as the sun gets lower in the sky toward sunset. The windows of the buildings are glittering in the sun. The sky is blue with white puffy clouds.

Periodic reminder: Do many small earthquakes mean anything?

Short answer: no

Longer answer: a localised swarm of small earthquakes may be a pointer to something bigger coming. Or it might not!!
