      ...Any stream, from the littlest brook to the mightiest river, has a length that’s proportional to its drainage area raised to the power of 0.6. (In symbolic form: L ~ A0.6.) There’s a bit of variance around that 0.6 value — Earth is, after all, a complicated place ...

      Never heard of it, but now I know! Pretty cool. Always wondered, never dove deep.

        Why Are Rivers So Mathematical?

        A simple scaling law brings order to the chaos of flowing water, rock, and sediment. New findings have extended the law even further.

                Nine feet up in the tallgrass, leaves turned north and south to duck the midday sun. That's how it got the name, and it's how lost people once took a bearing on open ground.

                Silphium laciniatum. Blooming right now through September. Children of several Plains nations chewed the hardened resin off the upper stalks as a mouth-cleaning gum; Pawnee practice used the pounded root as a tea. Nineteenth-century doctors made claims I won't repeat as advice — so let me be plain: this is a plant to plant, not a plant to dose.

                Everything you can see of it is built to be burned off. The taproot runs fifteen feet down into ground that hasn't been broken since before there was a state there. Some of them live close to a century.

                Prairie is among the most destroyed habitats on this continent. Putting one in the ground is a fifteen-foot root laid into soil that will outlive you.

                Cha bhris am freumh — the root does not break.

In the foreground, there are a couple of tiny little waves, maybe a few inches high. The sea state is calm. The sun is shining warm and bright. The vast ocean is seen for miles on the horizon, sunlight is glistening off the water. In the blue sky there is just a few small clouds. The sun is shining brightly and beams of sunlight are radiating warmth. The view is very zen and calm.

His coppery gold tail is missing a feather and there are still keratin spikes on his sapphire blue face but he is alert and is practicing spreading his flashy tail.  He faces a very tall garden plant with reddish purple leaves rather than the female he will ultimately court.  The mood suggests quiet determination and a will to be ready.
