Three Maps

Isarithmic Map: Isarithmic maps, also known as contour maps, depict smooth continuous phenomena such as precipitation. The map shown is an isarithmic map of the hydrogen ion concentration as pH from measurements during 1998. 

Chloropleth Map: A choropleth map is a thematic map in which areas are shaded or patterned inwhich shows to the measurement of the statistical variable being displayed on the map, such as population density or per-capita income.The choropleth map provides an easy way to visualize how a measurement varies across a geographic area or it shows the level of variability within a region. The map below is a chloropleth map of Kazakhstan's average temperature in july. 

Dot Density Map: A dot density map is as a map type that uses a dot symbol to show the presence of a feature or phenomenon. Dot maps rely on a visual scatter to show spatial pattern. The dot density map below is of the U.S. population in 2000. 

My Happy Place

I know it doesn't look like much, but right before my senior year in highschool me and my friends found a waterfall. Now it doesn't sound exciting but it was about 15 feet tall and you could jump off of it and we were the only people that knew about it and we always had a good time. Never really thought about it as a happy place but I never had a bad time there. Shit was dope.

The Crazy Honey Badger

The Honey Badger also known as the Ratel, is a species of mustelid native to Africa, the Middle East and the Indian Subcontinent. Despite its name, the honey badger does not closely resemble other badger species, instead bearing more anatomical similarities to weasels. It’s is primarily carnivorous and has few natural enemies because of its thick skin and general badassness. The honey badger has a fairly long body, but is distinctly thick set and broad across the back. Its skin is remarkably loose, and allows it to turn and twist freely within it.  The head is small and flat, with a short muzzle. The eyes are small, and the ears are little more than ridges on the skin, another possible adaptation to avoiding damage while fighting. The honey badger has short and sturdy legs, with five toes on each foot. The feet are armed with very strong claws, which are short on the hind legs and remarkably long on the forelimbs. Honey badgers live alone in self-dug holes. They are skilled diggers, being able to dig tunnels into hard ground in 10 minutes. The species ranges through most of Sub-Saharan Africa from the Western Cape, South Africa, to southern Morocco and southwestern Algeria and outside Africa through Arabia, Iran and western Asia to Turkmenistan and the Indian Peninsula. This animal is straight legit.
