Lower house of legislature last month passed a bill including a clause banning country's Defense Department from using maps that show as part of . taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/4944

But version of the bill passed by upper house (US Senate) doesn't include the clause about maps of and , so whether it goes into effect depends on how they reconcile the two versions.

It's always exciting to see a course offering fill quickly. My Hand Drawn Maps: Exploring Your Relationship with the Land course opened for registration on the 3rd. There are just four spaces left as of this morning. I'm excited.

It's part of the North House Folk School's Winterers Gathering (in November). Grand Marais, MN

The image is one of the watercolor maps that I've made. Hot press watercolor paper.

Additional geography: tropic of Stars (the most sunward location you can see stars), and the tropic of twilight (the nightward circle where you can see the horizon).
Obviously instead of an equator we've got a terminator/terminus.

One of my hand-drawn maps. I'm going to be teaching a one-day course on making maps at the North House Folk School during Winterer's Gathering.

Is it just me who finds the for dissatisfactory? Not only are they too literal and insufficiently simplified (note symbols)—I’d suggest a stylised alone would suffice—but what really gets my goat is the symbols’ orientation, which implies that the sun shines from the north-west quarter of the (which in the it NEVER DOES!). over!

Mississippi River Meander Belt Map (c.1944) with lidar added for shaded relief. Harold Fisk and the US Army Corp of Engineers created an incredible map set that shows the temporal shifts of the Lower Mississippi River.
