Crater Lake Oregon A Deep Blue Wonder of Nature

Right in the heart of southern Oregon's Cascade Mountains, Crater Lake is a breathtaking natural marvel, known for its intense sapphire-blue waters, remarkable clarity, and dramatic geological history. Formed over 7,000 years ago by the collapse of the ancient Mount Mazama volcano.

Crater Lake Oregon A Deep Blue Wonder of Nature Right in the heart of southern Oregon's Cascade Mountains, Crater Lake is a breathtaking natural marvel, known for its intense sapphire-blue waters, remarkable clarity, and dramatic geological history. Formed over 7,000 years ago by the collapse of the ancient Mount Mazama volcano, this deep caldera lake is the deepest lake in the United States, plunging to a depth of 1,943 feet (592 meters). Surrounded by towering cliffs that rise up to 2,000 feet above the lake's surface, Crater Lake lies within Crater Lake National Park, a protected wilderness rich with forests, volcanic rock formations, and diverse wildlife. The lake itself has no rivers flowing in or out; instead, it is fed entirely by rain and snow, which contributes to its stunning purity and color. Wizard Island, a cinder cone that emerged after the initial eruption, rises from the western side of the lake, resembling a miniature volcanic island. Nearby, the eerie Phantom Ship, a jagged rock formation, juts up from the water like a ghostly schooner, adding to the lake’s mystical appeal. https://fineartamerica.com/featured/crater-lake-oregon-a-deep-blue-wonder-of-nature-wayne-moran.html #CraterLake #NationalPark #Oregon #Nature #hiking #Landscape #photography #travel #travelphotography #AYearForArt #buyintoArt

Mark Wyner Won’t Comply :vm:

I remember this day well. My whole family at the coast. It was cloudy and cool, which was perfect for our liking. We laughed and played. There were some arguments. We ate sugar. And pizza. We dipped our feet in the cold water. Felt the coarse sand between our toes. It was gritty and uncomfortable. We removed it with baby powder. We drove home at the end of the day. Tired. Well fed. One trip of many like it. Same recipe but new every time.

Six children and teens off in the distance, clustered but moving in different directions. They’re on the sandy beach with the ocean behind them. They’re partially cloaked by the haze.

#Oregon's Maxine Dexter argued that the #Trump Admin Save Act is not about preventing voter fraud.

It would disenfranchise 79% of women because married women change their last names.

Their ID required to vote would not match their birth certificates.

The US House - majority of whom are men - approved it anyways

Polluter Pay bill dies in Oregon senate committee.

"A bill that would have required fossil fuel companies doing business in #Oregon to pay for the downstream and multigenerational costs of their #climate pollution will not move forward.

The Senate Committee on Energy and Environment Wednesday decided not to take a vote and advance Senate Bill 1187, the Make Polluters Pay Act, effectively letting the bill die in the committee."

State by State Pending and recently passed #AntiProtestLaws: #Oregon

HB 2534: Felony penalties for protesters who impede traffic

Would expand the definition of “riot” such that the felony offense could cover demonstrators who peacefully protest in the street. Oregon law defines “riot” as engaging in “tumultuous and violent conduct” with a group of five or more other people in a way that “intentionally or recklessly creates a grave risk of causing public alarm.” The offense is a Class C felony, punishable by up to five years in prison and $125,000. The bill would define “tumultuous and violent conduct” to include “imped[ing] traffic,” creating a “traffic hazard,” or “block[ing] the normal and reasonable movement of traffic.” As such, a large sidewalk protest that even momentarily overflowed onto a street in a way that could be considered a “traffic hazard” could be deemed a “riot,” and demonstrators could face felony penalties regardless of whether their conduct was “tumultuous” or “violent.”

Status: pending

Introduced 13 Jan 2025.

Issue(s): #Riot, #TrafficInterference

HB 2772: Criminalizing Certain Protests as #DomesticTerrorism

**Note: This bill was amended prior to its passage and provisions that would have covered peaceful protest activity were significantly narrowed.** As introduced, the bill would have created a sweeping new crime of "domestic terrorism" that would include if a person intentionally attempted to cause "disruption of daily life" that "severely affects the population, infrastructure, environment, or government functioning of this state." Under this definition, a peaceful protest that blocked traffic in a major commercial district could be defined as domestic terrorism, a Class B felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000. Lawmakers substantially amended the bill prior to its enactment, however rights groups argue that it could still cover certain acts of civil disobedience. Under the enacted law, “domestic terrorism” in the first degree is a Class B felony and includes intentionally destroying or substantially damaging “critical infrastructure,” with the intent to disrupt the services provided by critical infrastructure. Attempting to destroy or substantially damage critical infrastructure is a Class C felony, punishable by up to 5 years in prison and a fine of $125,000. “#CriticalInfrastructure” is broadly defined to include #pipelines and #roads.
