"The Portuguese Bend landslide, in coastal southern California, is an active, slow-moving mass of blocks and debris that extends from the shoreline to moderate altitudes along part of the southerly margin of the Palos Verdes Hills... Ground failure has been widespread in this area. It evidently began in mid- to late-Pleistocene time, and it has continued intermittently to the present." #pleistocene#landslide#PortugueseBend#PalosVerdeshttps://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/0013795289900379
@marcprecipice 50/50 on whether it's one of the white supremacists/alt right folks who hang out in Huntington Beach, or someone stealing the bronze for scrap metal.
#LouisBirch, #4th & Pine Sts. Newsboy, 12 years of age. Just started selling. Made 10 cents one day. Father dead. While not under any compulsion to sell papers, #Louis, of his own accord, took it up in order to help support his widowed mother. #Louis is a brother of #StanleyBirch, whose full history is contained in the text of the general report. #Louis stays out until 12:30 every night and goes with his brother, #Stanley, who is a messenger, on all calls because #Stanley is afraid to be out on the street alone at night. #Louis is clean, bright and willing. Visits saloons. Don't smoke. Works 9 hours per day. Gives money to mother. May 1910. Investigator, #EdwardF.Brown. Location: #Wilmington, #Delaware
This is a long shot, I know, but I’m putting it out there.
Is anyone in the #PikeCreek area in #Wilmington#Delaware missing a #cat? I found this sweet baby outside today in the cold. I’ve brought her (I think she’s a her) inside for the night but I don’t want to be pilfering someone’s pet! She seems well taken care of and is super sweet, but shy.
Our little friend, Eleanor Rigby is actually named Stick!!
Turns out she was microchipped (thank goodness) and the vet is contacting her humans now. My mom and I will be keeping an eye on her until we can get them reunited! Hooray!
As of now, Stick’s humans have been contacted by the vet, but they haven’t contacted me. I’m starting to get the feeling that they’re not going to, and that makes me sick. Based on the distance she may have traveled to end up here, she’s probably been missing for a few days, so you’d think her people would be champing at the bit to get her back. Starting to make plans in case they never get in touch. This baby deserves a loving home.
