Wishful deadhead.
Desert and structural geology fieldwork are a perfect match

אפשר לראות את עזה נחרבת מהחלון

I visit her once every few years and always ask what can I do. This house is absolutely huge with endless maintenance, so there's always something. Apart from almost dying (one from the ladder, once from the chainsaw, etc.) I really like helping her.

Last summer I almost died by falling from a ladder while clearing my aunt's bathroom window in her farmhouse in Provence

יש לי תזכורת שנתית ל12:30 היום להסתכל על הצל של עמודים. אני משווה בין שנים שאני בבאר שבע ביום הזה לשנים בהן אני במרכז, כמו ארטוסתנס מקומי

supershear ruptures from my experiments. These show quite clearly how the timing and directions of the FN and FP movements of the features in the video perfectly match a sub-Rayleigh rupture

ופה בחתך. אדמיניסטרטיבית קוראים גם לחלק במישור החוף שכולל את רחובות-גדרה-רמלה-לוד-ראשון לציון גם השפלה אבל לרוב הכוונה היא באזור שבין קרית גת לבית שמש שמופיע במפה

מפה גיאולוגית של ישראל (והשטחים). השפלה זה האזור בצבע ירוק בהיר שנמתח מבאר שבע, מזרח לקרית גת, ועד אזור כביש 1 ושער הגיא. אזור זה מורכב מסלעי קירטון רכים (לכן גם מלא במנהרות ע״ע בית גוברין), ש״מושפל״ ביחס להרי יהודה והשומרון שעשויים סלעי גיר (ירוק כהה) ונישאים מעליהם

Here are images from the power station's website:

I'm guessing the images gate is the left one.

This is exactly like we see in the video, indicating that the rupture propagated *in this location* at sub-Rayleigh velocities. If the rupture would have propagated faster, as supershear (above the shear wave speeds), we would observe very intense FP motions and minor FN.

Slight FN away from the fault
Intense FN towards the fault
Seemingly less intense FP away from the camera.
All these together are exactly what's expected from a sub-Rayleigh rupture (propagating at slightly below the Rayleigh wave speeds). This figure from Mello et al., 2014 shows the velocities

#FridayFold
(Probably) Cretaceous carbonates tightly folded to a recumbent fold. Honestly I have no idea of what created this fold, aside from that being is an area of left-right extension and normal faulting. Really puzzling.
On the Nuweiba-Taba road, Sinai peninsula

This is the analysed area, approximately 3 x 3 km. The rupture seems to run straight through densely populated areas

Very (very) rough analysis indicates >6 m of slip.
I resolve pixel offset using DIC in experimental cm sized samples with speckle pattern, and never used it before on satellite images. However the dextral offset is pretty clear, and I trust my calibration so the slip magnitude should be about right.
