Badhër Castle
Badhër Castle (Albanian: Kalaja e Badhrës) is a prehistoric fortified hilltop site and later medieval ruin near Borsh, in southern Albania. It occupies a strategic position above the coastal road between Borsh and Piqeras, overlooking the Ionian Sea.

Archaeological evidence places Badhër within the network of small fortified settlements that developed along the Ionian coast during the Late Bronze Age. These sites mark one of the earliest phases of fortified occupation known in the region and form part of the early Illyrian cultural landscape. Surveys in the Borsh area group Badhër with nearby fortified hills such as Kukum, Çip, Gjashnjar, Borsh (Sopot) and Karos.

Ionian Sea
The Ionian Sea is an elongated bay of the Mediterranean Sea. It is connected to the Adriatic Sea to the north, and is bounded by Southern Italy, including Basilicata, Calabria, Sicily, and the Salento peninsula to the west, southern Albania (and western Apulia, Italy) to the north, and the west coast of Greece, including the Peloponnese.

All major islands in the sea, which are located in the east of the sea, belong to Greece. They are collectively named the Ionian Islands, the main ones being Corfu, Kefalonia, Zakynthos, Lefkada, and Ithaca.

There are ferry routes between Patras and Igoumenitsa, Greece, and Brindisi and Ancona, Italy, that cross the east and north of the Ionian Sea, and from Piraeus westward. Calypso Deep, the deepest point in the Mediterranean at 5,109 m (16,762 ft), is in the Ionian Sea, at 36°34′N 21°8′E﻿ / ﻿36.567°N 21.133°E﻿ / 36.567; 21.133. The sea is one of the most seismically active areas in the world.
Vavilovian mimicry
In plant biology and agriculture, Vavilovian mimicry (also crop mimicry or weed mimicry) is a form of mimicry in plants where a weed evolves to share characteristics with a crop plant through generations of involuntary artificial selection. It is named after the Russian plant geneticist Nikolai Vavilov.

Selection against the weed may occur by killing a young or adult weed, by separating its seeds from those of the crop by winnowing, or both. The process has operated since Neolithic times, creating secondary crops such as rye and oats through mimicry of cereals such as wheat.

Winnowing
Winnowing is a process by which chaff is separated from grain. It can also be used to remove pests from stored grain. Winnowing usually follows threshing in grain preparation. In its simplest form, it involves throwing the mixture into the air so that the wind blows away the lighter chaff, while the heavier grains fall back down for recovery. Techniques included using a winnowing fan (a shaped basket shaken to raise the chaff) or using a tool (a winnowing fork or shovel) on a pile of harvested grain.
Ayno Maina Dam
The Ayno Maina Dam is located north of Ayno Maina and west of Daman District in Kandahar, Afghanistan. It is a recently built embankment dam for the purpose of providing irrigation water to Ayno Maina. The check dam traps rain water in its reservoir, which is mainly used for watering plants in Ayno Maina.

The storage of water in Ayno Maina decreases flooding and other environmental issues while at the same time increases wildlife and underground water level of the nearby area, and attracts more tourists to visit Ayno Maina.

Environmental issues in Afghanistan
Environmental issues in Afghanistan are monitored by the National Environmental Protection Agency (NEPA). These issues predate the political turmoil of the past few decades. Forests have been depleted by centuries of grazing and farming, practices which have only increased with modern population growth.

In Afghanistan, environmental conservation and economic concerns are not at odds; with over 44% of the population dependent on herding or farming, welfare of the environment is critical to the economic welfare of the people. Environmental hazards cause about 26% of all deaths in the country.

Solar eclipse of March 9, 2035
An annular solar eclipse will occur at the Moon's descending node of orbit between Friday, March 9 and Saturday, March 10, 2035, with a magnitude of 0.9919. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby totally or partly obscuring the image of the Sun for a viewer on Earth. An annular solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's apparent diameter is smaller than the Sun's, blocking most of the Sun's light and causing the Sun to look like an annulus (ring). An annular eclipse appears as a partial eclipse over a region of the Earth thousands of kilometres wide. The Moon's apparent diameter will be near the average diameter because it will occur 7.6 days after apogee (on March 2, 2035, at 9:30 UTC) and 5.1 days before perigee (on March 15, 2035, at 1:40 UTC).

Annularity will be visible for parts of New Zealand and French Polynesia. A partial eclipse will be visible for parts of Australia, Oceania, Antarctica, and central Mexico.

Lunar node
A lunar node is either of the two orbital nodes of the Moon; that is, the two points at which the orbit of the Moon intersects the ecliptic. The ascending (or north) node is where the Moon moves into the northern ecliptic hemisphere, while the descending (or south) node is where the Moon enters the southern ecliptic hemisphere.

They are the reason for eclipse season, being the intersection necessary for the alignment of Sun, Earth and Moon.

Mount Warren (California)
Mount Warren is a 12,327-foot-elevation (3,757-meter) summit located in the Sierra Nevada mountain range, in Mono County, California, United States. The mountain is set within the Hoover Wilderness, on land managed by Inyo National Forest. The peak is situated 1.5 miles (2.4 km) south of Gilcrest Peak, 1.8 miles (2.9 km) northwest of Lee Vining Peak, and 5 miles (8.0 km) southeast of Excelsior Mountain, which is the nearest higher neighbor. Topographic relief is significant as the summit rises 5,955 feet (1,815 meters) above Mono Lake in 4.5 miles.

Mono Lake
Mono Lake (/ˈmoʊnoʊ/ MOH-noh) is a saline soda lake in Mono County, California, formed at least 760,000 years ago as a terminal lake in an endorheic basin. The lack of an outlet causes high levels of salts to accumulate in the lake which make its water alkaline.

The desert lake has an unusually productive ecosystem based on brine shrimp, which thrive in its waters, and provides critical habitat for two million annual migratory birds that feed on the shrimp and alkali flies (Ephydra hians). Historically, the native Kutzadika'a people ate the alkali flies' pupae, which live in the shallow waters around the edge of the lake.

When the city of Los Angeles diverted water from the freshwater streams flowing into the lake, the lake level dropped, imperiling the migratory birds. The Mono Lake Committee formed in response and won a legal battle that forced Los Angeles to partially replenish the lake level.
