Taking Type to the Next Level with Alternate Characters Are you sick of your type looking plain and boring? Many OpenType fonts have alternate characters built into them that can transform your type into a beautiful piece of art. By using these alternate characters you can add things like flourishes and flair to your type with ease. Some type faces have alternate characters that can help out with legibility at smaller sizes. Even some handwritten fonts have alternate characters to change the style of a characters to make it seem more handwritten. How do you tell what fonts have alternates? Ligatures – This is where two or more characters are linked together. Logotypes – This is where a word is stylized as a logo to be included in your type. Biform characters – These alternate characters can make capital letters have a lowercase look or lowercase letters with capital letter look while keeping the same size and weight. Swash characters – This is where a certain letter can have a fancy look to them. Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4 Step 5 Step 6 Step 7
Fault creep along the Calaveras in Hollister, California Introduction Hollister, California is located South of the San Francisco Bay area. (Here is a regional map courtesy of Xerox PARC.) In the Bay area there are three major faults, from West to East the San Andreas, the Hayward, and the Calaveras; all are part of the San Andreas fault system. South of the Bay Area the Hayward and Calaveras merge into the San Andreas. What makes Hollister particularly interesting to geophysicists is that from San Juan Bautista (HERE) to just North of Parkfield (HERE) the faults in the San Andreas system are not ``stuck'': instead of moving only during major earthquakes, the usual pattern for faults, they continuously ``creep''. Here is a map showing the approximate active trace of the fault for the part of town covered in our tour. The creep rate apparently varies in an unpredictable way. Hollister has become rather ``yuppified'' over the last decade. Walking Tour Find ``Vista Park Hill'', just NorthWest of downtown. Rogers, T. Sylvester, A. Disclaimer

Syrie, champ de bataille médiatique En Syrie, « les armes chimiques sont sous surveillance », informe Le Figaro (22 juillet 2012) ; « des forces spéciales américaines ont été déployées pour prévenir leur dispersion ». Et un diplomate en poste en Jordanie avertit : « C’est la menace des armes chimiques qui peut déclencher une intervention américaine ciblée. » Nous voilà donc replongés avec Damas, à quelques nuances près, dans le scénario écrit pour Bagdad dix ans plus tôt. M. Bachar Al-Assad lâchera-t-il ses armes de destruction massive sur son opposition ? L’accusation est pourtant déjà vieille de plusieurs mois : « Des tueurs d’Assad [ont] lancé dans la région d’Al-Rastan, non loin de la ville rebelle de Homs, des opérations aériennes avec utilisation de gaz toxiques », rapportait dès septembre 2011 le site de Bernard-Henri Lévy (1). « [Nous avons] entendu cette affirmation de dizaines d’interlocuteurs dans la province de Hama, écrivait l’Agence France-Presse (AFP), avec une prudence exceptionnelle, le 27 juillet 2012.

Geysers erupt because they’re all bendy inside University of California at Berkeley volcanologist Michael Manga and student Esther Adelstein built a laboratory geyser to explain how geysers like Old Faithful work. (Roxanne Makasdjian and Phil Ebiner; additional footage by Eric King and Kristen Fauria/University of California at Berkeley) You'll definitely want to check out the video above, because it features a loop-de-loop lab apparatus designed to spew water into the air. But it's more than just a twist on one of those science fair volcano models: The UC Berkeley earth sciences professor who designed it says it demonstrates the basic mechanics of geysers like Old Faithful. Michael Manga and his colleagues report on their findings in the February issue of the Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research. Manga's model isn't quite so reliable.

Floating Farms It is fairly straightforward to measure the area of most lakes. Certain satellite sensors, such as the Operational Land Imager (OLI) on Landsat 8, are particularly well suited to the chore because they collect information from several sections, or bands, of the electromagnetic spectrum that can be used to distinguish between water, land, and aquatic vegetation. However, determining the size of Inle Lake poses a special challenge. The second largest lake in Mynamar (Burma) has a unique agricultural system that makes the boundary between land and water remarkably fuzzy. The system, known locally as ye-chan, involves the cultivation of hundreds of hectares of floating “islands” that produce enough tomatoes and other vegetables to drive the region’s economy. Landsat 8 acquired an image (top) of the southern part of Inle Lake on January 25, 2015. According to one study, the area covered by floating gardens increased by 500 percent between 1992 and 2009.
