Queen's birthday weekend here in W.A - some friends married and invited us out to the celebrations quite a way East from the coast. Very much reminded me of some of the Heidelberg School paintings and had me thinking of some of the Arthur Upfield Bony books. Extraordinary views from the top of Jilakin Rock. The east most occurrence of the Jarrah tree is here, possibly once part of a superforest ranging right the way across the State. A long drive, made fun by the Tin Horse Highway and definitely worth the drive to my mind for the sheer presence of country.

If you can count, you can help save lives.

Hi there,
We're putting the Antigua dataset on hold for the moment so that we can cover an urgent need from Rescue Global: basic information about building density in Puerto Rico. Even before post-Maria images come in, we can make maps of population density and expected damage for Rescue Global, but we need more accurate and up-to-date building information than we currently have available.
So this dataset is a bit different than the others: we are only using "Before" images, taken in the past few months, and we are only asking the first question we've been asking of the other datasets: how many buildings do you see?
We're hoping we can get through this quickly, so we're keeping the question to just basic categories of image counts instead of, for example, asking people to spend more time marking individual buildings.
With your help, we can use this information to make a map of expected damage, which will help Rescue Global decide where to focus their initial reconnaissance flights in the days immediately after Hurricane Maria, when power, phones and internet are expected to still be down throughout most of the large island of Puerto Rico.
Please continue to help at www.planetaryresponsenetwork.org.
Thank you,
Grant & The Zooniverse Team

Basilisk Scorpion Death Whales!
Basilisk Scorpion Death Whales! My character isn't a practised drawer but is making lurid pictures of what she imagines the creatures that made the tracks look like, including sound effects as she draws.

Boosting the signal.
Boosting the signal. Did you ever wonder what it was like to be John Tracy in International Rescue? Do it for real. You'll be the eye in the sky. Look at photos and get the information to help the rescue teams on the ground. Don't worry, there's a short tutorial to help you!
Hi there,
The Zooniverse relaunched The Planetary Response Network yesterday in response to Hurricane Irma and rescue efforts in the Caribbean. We’ve now uploaded a third set of images with much higher resolution, and we need your help to go through them as quickly as possible.
Hurricane Irma has brought large-scale destruction to many islands over the last few days. By analysing satellite images of the stricken areas you can provide invaluable assistance to rescue workers in the Caribbean. Rescue Global are a UK-based disaster risk reduction and response charity who are deploying a team to the Caribbean and will use the information you provide to help them assess the situation on the ground.
Note: we’ve set up two workflows, one where you can quickly remove unclassifiable images from the subject set and the other to tag classifiable images with areas of need. We've also fixed the issue with the zoom tool.
Please continue to keep a close eye on the project after classifications are complete. We’ll keep adding more images as they become available over more of the region.
Join the effort now at www.planetaryresponsenetwork.org.
Thanks,
Grant & The Zooniverse Team

I don't know if it suites you but it's one of the rare instances when it's not on a WABA week.

I was just looking at your website for my Uncle Vic who wants a plaque for my Aunty Judy who passed away recently.
I was just looking at your website for my Uncle Vic who wants a plaque for my Aunty Judy who passed away recently. She's in the 'grassed area' at Karrakatta if that means anything.
Anyway did you know your website up the top it says Stocks Bros Monumental? It's Stock Bros isn't it?

We are all on for tonight!
We are all on for tonight! There will be some discussion of the Runequest playtest and I can either run a small London or Rob says he can do Detached.
