    “[Here is a] climatology near-surface currents and temperatures for the world, at monthly and one-quarter degree resolution, derived from satellite-tracked surface drifting buoy observations.
    Animations of these currents are available [also at aoml.noaa.gov/phod/gdp/animati].
    Maps of these currents in various regions can be seen on the Ocean Surface Currents web site [oceancurrents.rsmas.miami.edu/

  2. I promised to keep posting work in progress, so here are my upturned boats in progress. I am actually planning out at least some of the print on the computer before I try and make the stencils by hand.

    It's a question of what can be positive and what can be negative. Pencil marks and brush strokes cannot be negative (obviously) but paper cuts can be, I guess. Maybe I've made this too hard for myself!

    I have no idea how to make multiple layers accurate. I mean, obviously if you cut a boat out of paper then do do have a perfect positive and negative shape.

    Anyway there it is! Do let me know what you think.

  4. #Texas to deploy #buoys to deter #RioGrande crossings, #GregAbbott announces

    The governor revealed plans for a floating river barrier at a Capitol signing ceremony for six new laws related to border security. The first 1,000-foot section will be set up near Eagle Pass.

  5. Perhaps a better defense, is a powerful offense that renders the enemy useless, powerless, and worthless, through the act of online guerilla warfare tactics of force-feeding disinformation?

    If relegated to insignificance through helping them to build vast databases that consist of completely worthless data...

    Well #buoys and #gulls, that's called, "Breaking the Google", lolz.
