An interview between sociologist Brian O'Neill and Geographer Anne-Lise Boyer about extreme heat in desert urban and rural places. This interview occasioned the release of their first zine project: Dear Diary, in 2024.

Interview with Geographer Anne-Lise Boyer about Extreme Heat in Urban and Rural Areas

Two more storms are headed into the Gulf of Mexico and 6 more weeks for storms to form...with one a possible push toward Tx.
Maturity happens when you repeat going thru things...as you do, if you still remain sober - that is critical.
Storms will always follow the violence of man.
There are announcements in the media to affect the whole world.
Hezbolah - Hamas - Iran Policies Discussion.
We are not the craftsmen of prophecy...the Father is.
Black Smoke Rings in the sky question...there is a boiler in the same vacinity.
There is a drafting of a bill to protect humans from having their mind read.  Bionic body parts operate on reading the mind/nerves.
I phone is capeable of running 2 neuro-nets...teh positioning of these phones over 3/4 of the earth ( within 2 weeks ) will fully awaken a system...it makes the world a brain.
A leader will assume all responsibility.  Go to a higher standard.

10 12 2024  A I - Q and A - Go to a Higher Standard

How do borders relate to questions of identity? What can we learn from thinking of Europe as a "made-up continent"? And what is the analytical power of maps?

On this episode of The UK in a Changing Europe podcast, Professor Sarah Hall talks to Jonn Elledge, author of 'A History of the World in 47 Borders' and Lewis Baston, author of 'Borderlines: A History of Europe, Told from the Edges' about these questions.

What can borders tell us about politics, history and identity?

LYRICS:
When waves come crashin', here’s the play,
Swash moves forward, then backwash away,
Longshore drift, it slides along,
Moves the sand where it belongs!

Traction rolls the big stuff slow,
Saltation hops like it’s ready to go,
Suspension’s light, it’s up in the flow,
And sediment’s the mix that they all show!

Deposition lays it down on the shore,
Building beaches up a little more,
Constructive waves, they build up land,
While destructive waves break it down like sand!

Traction rolls the big stuff slow,
Saltation hops like it’s ready to go,
Suspension’s light, it’s up in the flow,
And sediment’s the mix that they all show!

Silt and clay drift out to sea,
With coastal transport in harmony,
Erosion eats away the coast,
Rock and sand, they pay the most!

With backwash pullin’ out to sea,
Longshore drift moves stuff endlessly,
Constructive, destructive—know ‘em right,
One builds the shore, one gives it a bite!

Traction rolls the big stuff slow,
Saltation hops like it’s ready to go,
Suspension’s light, it’s up in the flow,
And sediment’s the mix that they all show!

Deposition lays it down on the shore,
Building beaches up a little more,
Constructive waves, they build up land,
While destructive waves break it down like sand!

Silt and clay drift out to sea,
With coastal transport in harmony,
Erosion eats away the coast,
Rock and sand, they pay the most!

With backwash pullin’ out to sea,
Longshore drift moves stuff endlessly,
Constructive, destructive—know ‘em right,
One builds the shore, one gives it a bite!

So when you’re asked about the coast,
You’ve got the terms that matter most!
From swash to silt, you know the way,
Ace that exam and save the day!

Traction rolls the big stuff slow,
Saltation hops like it’s ready to go,
Suspension’s light, it’s up in the flow,
And sediment’s the mix that they all show!

Deposition lays it down on the shore,
Building beaches up a little more,
Constructive waves, they build up land,
While destructive waves break it down like sand!

Geography Coastal Terms Year Ten Exam Revision

We trace the tortuous path by which a scattering of villages in a marshy lagoon, founded by refugees from violence and political breakdown, forged their own stable and cohesive independent republic which would last for a thousand years, and with it a splendrous city where East and West mingled, a sprawling trade network linking Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, and finally a waterborne empire that was the forerunner of the modern European colonial states.

The Impossible City: The History of Venice -- pt. 1: From Asylum to Empire

In this talk, Dr Olivia Mason traced the history of Jordan's nature reserves in the British archives, exploring how nature reserves bring global and situated resource narratives into conversation, how they continue imperial spatial imaginations after periods of administrative colonialism, and the connections between conservation agendas and imperial geopolitical alliances.

Meet the speakers

Olivia Mason is a Lecturer in the school of Geography, Politics, and Sociology at Newcastle University. Her work sits across cultural, environmental, and political geography, and is broadly centred on mobility politics and resource colonialism, and to date has mostly been focused on Jordan. She is currently PI of a research project entitled 'Cultural politics of nature reserves: resource tensions, (post)colonial state making, and Bedouin in Jordan' that explores relationships between Bedouin, environmental changes, and nature conservation.

Frederick Wojnarowski is a British Academy Postdoctoral Research Fellow in the Department of Anthropology, LSE. Fred is interested in the political and economic anthropology and history of the Middle East, especially Jordan, as well as broader questions of social change and socio-political categorisation. His research at the LSE examines the intersection of discourses of water scarcity, environmental justice and corruption in rural Jordan.

Michael Mason is Director of the LSE Middle East Centre and Professor of Environmental Geography in the Department of Geography and Environment, LSE and an Associate of the Grantham Research Institute for Climate Change and the Environment. He is interested in ecological politics and governance as applied to questions of accountability, security and sovereignty. This research addresses both global environmental politics and regional environmental change in Western Asia/the Middle East.

Organized Abandonment w/ Ruth Wilson Gilmore

Before we get cracking on an exciting new season on #CoffeeGeogPod, host Kit Marie lays their thoughts and feelings bare on current affairs. 

The re-election of Trump, effective concession that we'll miss 1.5C #climatechange target, increasing hostility to the science community, step-up in anti-trans actions and rhetoric... It's all seems overwhelming.

But Kit Marie and the communities she is a part of are not going anywhere and they spell out how they are moving forward, suggesting how and why friends and colleagues in the #transgender, #SciComm and education/#teaching communties should more forward too.

You can also watch Kit Marie give their thoughts over on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CCDor2eQRCM
