Redfish Lake in central Idaho is the largest lake in the Sawtooth National Recreation Area. It is situated at over 6,500 feet (2,000 meters) elevation, and is 4 1/2 miles (7 km) long. It lies 2 mi. (3 km) south of the resort town of Stanley. This view looking southwest shows the mountain mass of the Grand Mogul, rising to 9,733 feet (2,967 meters). The lake was named for the reddish sockeye salmon, an anadromous species that formerly spawned here, but dams on the Columbia River system now largely prevent sockeyes from reaching the lake. Today it is home to trout, including rainbow, cutthroat, and brook trout; and to kokanee salmon and Chinook salmon, among other species. Tourist amenities include campsites and hiking trails maintained by the U.S. Forest Service.

'Memorial' founder jailed for 2 1/2 years

On February 26, 2024, Oleg Orlov, founder and co-chair of the Memorial human rights group, was sentenced to 2 1/2 years in prison for "discrediting" the Russian armed forces. Orlov denied the charge, and termed political conditions in Russia "the suffocation of freedom."

Thank you for pointing at Seiji Ozawa! I thanked him, and have the story of Helga Paris today, a photographer of houses and faces. -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:05, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The image, taken on a cemetery last year after the funeral of a distant but dear family member, commemorates today, with thanks for their achievements, four subjects mentioned on the Main page and Vami_IV, a friend here. Listen to music by Tchaikovsky (an article where one of the four is pictured), sung by today's subject (whose performance on stage I enjoyed two days ago). --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:45, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Gerda. -- Sca (talk) 19:08, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

yes! - in memory of the birthday of a friend who showed me art such as this, and of Vami --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:00, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Rossini's Petite messe solennelle was premiered on 14 March 1864, - when I listen to the desolate Agnus Dei I think of Vami. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:01, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I uploaded vacation pics (from back home), at least the first day, - and remember Aribert Reimann. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:13, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Happy Easter! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:04, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
And also to you. -- Sca (talk) 22:10, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
