Gros Koin ! 
According to Wikipedia :
Some genealogical records show that the origin of Harker comes from the North-West regions of England - North of the Lake District. Speculation is that Harker is the result of the combination of Romanized hyphenation of the surnames Hart or Hare and Kerr. (Hart - a type of stag; Hare - a rabbit; Kerr - a marshland.) It is also assumed that the Harker family were Romanized subjects who lived on both sides of Hadrian's Wall in that area.
Maybe Stoker chose to name Jonathan "Harker" because he's been trapped like a hare or hunted like a hart at the beginning of the novel ? Or, vulnerable as a hare but also chivalric as a hart ?
The deer or hart has strong symbolism in history and many parts of the world.
This is interesting considering Dracula's novel is about the fight between christianity and paganism.
Perhaps Stoker was also inspired by Grimm's fairy tales ?
And, considering the use of the archaic exclamation "Hark !" ("listen !") in this chapter, do you think Jonathan Harker could also be named after it ? Or is that just a coïncidence ?
Ah c'est super ! Merci ! Un carnet façon clipbook un peu ?
Pour les anneaux, je pensais me procurer un mécanisme en entier, à fixer à l'intérieur de la couvrure en cuir. À voir si je double le cuir pour le rigidifier un peu et faire des pochettes, où si je garde le côté fleur tel quel. Sur le nombre d'anneaux, pour une utilisation agenda, tout dépend si je vais avoir la motivation de faire mes propres pages chaque année ou si je vais préférer acheter un bloc tout fait...
Je suis à jour ;). Le premier Destination Finale a bien joué son rôle de prévention tétanos.
Merci ! Je n'ai jamais lu non plus de Paul Valéry, il faudrait que je m'y penche un jour.
"T’es sérieux, encore du papier ?" : tu me fais penser qu'il faudrait aussi que je me rachète un agenda. Je préfère la vue pocket en colonnes personnellement...Ça fait un petit temps que j'hésite à me fabriquer mon propre organiseur avec des anneaux de reliure et mes chutes de cuir de sellerie. Va falloir que je cogite ça et que je fasse des recherches !
Avoir participé au canvas 2025 m'a donné plein d'idées pour le tricot/crochet ! Je me disais même qu'on pouvait s'amuser à reproduire le féditrain.
Autrement, j'avance à mon rythme d'escargot sur mon tricot.
Réparer des instruments de musique a l'air d'être un métier dangereux !
Certes, mais il faudrait encore qu'on éduque tout le monde à ce sujet, à commencer par les constructeurs même de ces outils. Mon téléphone est un mammouth, à 80% du temps en silencieux, avec le minimum d'applications (et open source pour la plupart), je ne le consulte parfois qu'une seule fois par jour. Je peux t'assurer que pour certains (et pas les plus jeunes !), si tu ne rappelles pas dans la journée, pour une demande tout à fait non-urgente, tu deviens vite soupçonnable des pires intentions !
Et je suis loin d'être néo-luddite tout ça.
L'idée derrière est aussi de dénoncer la distorsion de la perception d'urgence, de disponibilité, etc.
:(
C'était rigolo quand même ! On était pas assez nombreux c'est pour ça. Un canvas sur le week-end du 14 juillet, c'est pas l'idéal !
C'est beau !

Je crosspost tel quel car c'est très intéressant (et beau).

- Nudibranchs are hermaphrodites (having both male and female sex organs), but they still require a mate in order to reproduce as they cannot self fertilize
Above nudibranch reproductive system by Carissa Shipman, found here
- The reproductive organs are usually next to each other inside the nudibranchs body, and the exterior reproductive opening being on its right lateral side
Above, 'External anatomy of a Tambja verconis nudibranch (by wadeangeliart) found here
- Being simultaneous hermaphrodites increases their opportunities to find a mate, as both partners will transfer sperm, and lay eggs, via reciprocal reproduction.....although there are some exceptions as we will discover!
Above photo Bennett's nudibranchs Mating' by John Turnbull
- Nudibranchs will follow the scent trail left by potential partner. When they catch up with them they start courtship which involves the gentle touching of each other
Above photo by ilan Lubitz
- Depending on the species, the nudibranchs will then orientate their bodies so that their reproductive openings are facing, allowing their swollen gonopores to connect
Above photo of Nembrotha chamberlaini mating, by Jim Greenfield
Above photo of Nembrotha purpureolineata, by Brian Mayes
- Nudibranchs will take every opportunity they can to mate when finding a partner. One quirk of their anatomical development whilst maturing into adults is that the male reproductive organs will grow, and be functional before their female organs. This is called protandry....
Above photo of Hypselodoris bullocki mating, by Coppertane....a possible protandry mating, due to size difference
- They can still take the opportunity to mate though as a 'male'..... It has been suggested that any sperm passed to the 'male' partner, can be stored within their bodies until their female organs have matured. It will then use the stored sperm to fertilize its eggs!
Above photo of pelagic nudibranchs mating by Rajiv Bhambri
- Mating duration depends on species, and can vary from brief encounters to several hours!
Above photo by Tony Wu
- There are 3 basic mating positions depending on species- right side to right side..... (see photo below)
Above, Nembrotha chamberlaini, by Andrew Wu
- .....Head to head.....(see photo below)......
Above, Lobiger viridis, from here
- ......And head to tail, which is either a reciprocal, or a unilateral process depending upon flexibility of the species, or even partner aggression......(see photo below)...
Above, Mariaglaja inornata, from here. The genitals are separate in this species- the penis is in the head, and the vagina in the tail
[Above] The gastropterid sea slug Sagaminopteron ornatum will sometimes form a circle of two to achieve reciprocal mating, or at other times as illustrated here, act unilaterally as a male by approaching from behind to copulate with another acting as a female. source
- Hypodermic Insemination is the preferred method used by some species. The penis has a sharp point which is used to stab the partner in order to deliver a packet of sperm. This can be done either as a mutual act, or happening unilaterally with one nudibranch taking advantage to inseminate another....This can occur amongst some of the sacoglassans
Above photo of Costasiella usagi, by eunice khoo....not as cute as I originally thought....
- Goniobranchus reticulatus is an unusual nudibranch as after it has mated the external part of its penis detaches! And within 24 hours it grows back.....!
Scientists think this mating strategy has evolved so the sperm of rival nudibranchs stored in the vagina of their mate will not accidentally get passed on to future mates source
Above photo of Goniobranchus reticulatus by Bernard Picton...with or without penis...(Schrodinger's penis?)
...And finally a shrimp jockey on a pair of mating nudis....
