What is the most spook-tacular nebula in the galaxy? One contender is LDN 43, which bears an astonishing resemblance to a vast cosmic bat flying amongst the stars on a dark Halloween night. Located about 1400 light years away in the constellation Ophiuchus, this molecular cloud is dense enough to block light not only from background stars, but from wisps of gas lit up by the nearby reflection nebula LBN 7. Far from being a harbinger of death, this 12-light year-long filament of gas and dust is actually a stellar nursery. Glowing with eerie light, the bat is lit up from inside by dense gaseous knots that have just formed young stars.
This long exposure photograph taken by NASA astronaut Matthew Dominick with a camera programmed for high sensitivity shows star trails and streaks of city lights as the International Space Station orbited 258 miles above the South China Sea off the coast of Vietnam near Ho Chi Minh City.
Form my perspective, if they can strategize maximizing income, that will eventually lead to them getting a job. I don't carry cash, which is why I take them to eat, but when I do, I just didn't know where it would go.
If what you're saying is true, I'll then reconsider.
I'm on the fence about giving money to homeless people on the streets, but am all for donating to / volunteering for organizations that help them.
My reason starts with how organized and strategic they can be. For example, I was waiting at a bus stop downtown and there were three homeless people planning out which intersections they were splitting to next and how they were going to divide the total afterwards.
Second example in downtown. There's a guy begging for food in the mall, so I take him to the nearest food stand, we both order a meal, and eat at a table. He was talking about his plan to get off the streets and all and went back to refill his drink after eating. During that time, I went to the cashier for something and she told me he's with a few others that come back pretty regularly. When we get back to the table, he then tells me that he needs $10 for a place to stay for the night and then leads me to the nearest atm. Once we're there, I tell him everything the cashier told me and he doesn't say anything with an "ok you caught me look". I still give him the money even though he knows that I know he'll be back doing the same thing.
I know this is is not the case for all homeless people, such as the meal I had with one with mental disabilities, but it's a mixed bag. Just do what you can and don't feel bad if you can't.
Have a clear set of long-term goals for yourself, ie career, where you want to live, and what you want to be. Set deadlines for each with steps on how to do it.
It's time to start building the rest of your life. It won't be easy but you'll be doing it for you, so make it worthwhile.
Because my mom wants me to.
Well, keep at it. I'll be looking forward to seeing the progression in your photos.
Yes, this is a beautiful photo. I know nothing about photography, but I appreciate your effort in capturing and sharing that moment.
The closet was my favorite
Thanks. It was a present for myself for my 10th anniversary of being cancer free.
On their history page, the first paragraph starts with, "Beginning as a student and volunteer-run 10-watt radio station in 1972...".
Yes. Their YouTube channel popped up when scrolling and now I'm hooked.
