Wind Map An invisible, ancient source of energy surrounds us—energy that powered the first explorations of the world, and that may be a key to the future. This map shows you the delicate tracery of wind flowing over the US. The wind map is a personal art project, not associated with any company. We've done our best to make this as accurate as possible, but can't make any guarantees about the correctness of the data or our software. Please do not use the map or its data to fly a plane, sail a boat, or fight wildfires :-) If the map is missing or seems slow, we recommend the latest Chrome browser. Surface wind data comes from the National Digital Forecast Database. If you're looking for a weather map, or just want more detail on the weather today, see these more traditional maps of temperature and wind.

The #1 reason people die early, in each country You're probably aware that heart disease and cancer are far and away the leading causes of death in America. But globally the picture is more complicated: (Vox / Anand Katakam and Joss Fong) It's worth stressing that "cause of lost years of life" and "cause of death" aren't identical. For example, deaths from preterm births may cause more lost years of life in a country than deaths from heart disease even if heart disease is the leading cause of death. Deaths from preterm births amount to many decades of lost life, whereas heart disease tends to develop much later on. But that makes the fact that heart disease is the leading cause of lost life in so many countries all the more striking, and indicative of those countries' successes in reducing childhood mortality. On the flipside, the world is getting better in a great number of ways:
Everything Sings - Siglio Press Intro by Ira Glass, essays by Albert Mobilio and Ander Monson, interview by Blake Butler. That a cartographer could set out on a mission that’s so emotional, so personal, so idiosyncratic, was news to me. —IRA GLASS, host of This American Life, from his introduction to Everything Sings. Iconoclastic geographer Denis Wood has created an atlas unlike any other. He surveys his small, century-old neighborhood Boylan Heights in Raleigh, North Carolina by first paring away the inessential (scale, orientation, street grids), then by locating the revelatory in the unmapped and unmappable: radio waves permeating the air, the paperboy’s route in space and time, the light cast by street lamps, Halloween pumpkins on porches. His joyful subversion of the traditional notions of map making forge new ways of seeing not only this particular place, but also the very nature of place itself. About Denis Wood
Mercosur debate cómo lograr el regreso de Paraguay al bloque AnteriorSiguiente La cumbre del Mercosur que se realizará este viernes en la ciudad de Montevideo se centrará sobre el reclamo de Paraguay, que establece como condición para reintegrarse al bloque asumir la presidencia pro témpore en lugar de Venezuela. Se espera que los presidentes de Argentina, Cristina Kirchner; Brasil, Dilma Rousseff; Uruguay, José Mujica; y Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, envíen un mensaje político exhortando a Paraguay para regresar al bloque. A ellos, se sumará Evo Morales, mandatario de Bolivia, en proceso de adhesión al bloque y con la expectiva de que se haga un repudio a los episodios vividos la semana pasada en Europa. Paraguay se encuentra suspendido desde el año pasado, en represalia por la destitución de Fernando Lugo. Eso será en agosto, con la asunción de Horacio Cartes. Maduro dijo este martes que cedería el mando, si eso ayudaba a la reincorporación de Paraguay, pero el ofrecimiento despertó sospechas entre los políticos de ese país. Embed
