AIR FORCE OIL HEATER

Taken at the end of April 2004 at Watts-Branch Creek in Rockville, Maryland. When I try to calm myself down, I go here in my mind, to chill my feet in the cool water. . .

The location of the footbridge from which this picture was taken is the end of Aintree, Rockville, Maryland, at the entrance to Woottons Mill Park.

The Woottons Mill Park is 106 acres large, and includes forest preserve/urban wildlife sanctuary, especially deer; 177 garden plots, 20'x25' each, available for rent April-November, a basketball court and two tennis courts, hike-bike trail, footbridges. . .

The creek is part of the Watts Branch watershed, located in the Potomac River basin drainage of Montgomery County and consists primarily of residential land uses. Like many middle Potomac tributaries, this watershed is influenced by historic development patterns that saw the evolution of major cross-roads at high points in the landscape. The City of Rockville occupies the headwaters of Watts Branch, and over time, the I-270 corridor has grown and traverses the upper section of the watershed to connect major County population centers. Pockets of high density commercial and research and development centers, important components of the County's overall economy, are now located in the headwaters of many of the Watts Branch tributaries. Land uses gradually transition to lower densities and predominately residential uses in the downstream reaches of Watts Branch.
Lower Watts Branch supports a fish community of approximately 25 species. Many of the more tolerant species are well represented, although some sensitive fish species are found in fewer numbers. Smallmouth bass are found in many of the pools in Watts Branch and colorful greenside darters can be observed in the rocky bottom runs.

Watts – name origin: Scottish and English- an extremely common Middle English personal name, Wat(t), a short form of Walter. Other place names in the area have their origins from early American periods. Query Mill Road, for example, was named for Nicholas Query (1714-1788) who owned a mill on Muddy Branch near what is now Esworthy Road, while Beall Mountain Road and Beallmount estates on River Road got their names from Brooke Beall (1742-1795), Montgomery County's first clerk of court who also owned a mill, this one on Watts Branch near River Road.

At a media event on September 1, 2010, Apple announced the sixth generation iPod Nano, which among many new features, will be designed around a high resolution square touch-screen.[36]
The device now features a smaller 1.54 inch multi-touch screen with a lower resolution of 240x240 pixels but a higher pixel density of 220 pixels per inch[37], as opposed to the larger, brighter[citation needed] 2.2 inch screen on the iPod nano 5G. The device has a 0.39 watt-hour battery rated at 3.7 volts, giving a capacity of 105 mAh[38], and specified to give 24 hours of music playback on a single charge. The device retains the same 30-pin dock connector as previous generations. The new iPod Nano has lost the previous generation's video camera, built-in voice recorder (although plugging in headphones with a built in microphone will reveal a Voice Memos app) and built-in speaker, and games. It has also lost support for video playback[39], but music videos and video podcasts (vodcasts) can be synced onto the device, and the audio from them will play on the device, with a single key-frame shown on the screen.[40] It still includes the Nike+iPod fitness option as well as an FM radio tuner. It has a black on white screen contrast option and other accessibility options. The 6th generation iPod nano has the same price point as the 5th generation device.
