Broadcast will probably be snuggling on this fluffy winter blanket all day while I bike to work in 11 degrees Farenheit / -11 degrees Celcius. This is not my favorite biking temperature, I have to say.

Broadcast actually shares her birthday with Satomi Matsuzaki of Deerhoof, who also loves cats so I waited until Caturday to celebrate with Broadcast. Don't worry, though, she has gotten lots of treats both today and on her birthday, which was Purrsday!
Broadcast turned 9.

Earlier this week, Broadcast turned 8 years old but, as she was very busy in her second grade class learning about adverbs at the time, we had to wait to celebrate her birthday on Caturday.

Broadcast turned 11 today! I don't know if cats understand that it is their birthday even when we talk to them about it but I do think she understands she's receiving a lot of extra special Caturday treats!
Broadcast is named after one of my favorite bands of all time:

A guy listens intently to latest news broadcast on his transistor radio while relaxing at the porch of his house by the highway at a village in Subic, Zambales, Philippines.
Broadcast is as naughty as she is beautiful so that's fun. She turned 5 years old today.

The almost 370 meter (1214 feet) high Christmas tree in the Gerbrandy Broadcast Tower is a Christmas tree-shaped set of lights that are attached to the large radio transmission tower in IJsselstein, the Netherlands and is, according to the Guinness Book of Records, the largest Christmas tree in the world.

Hoopoe calling from a strangely appropriate perch, a TV aerial. This bird was calling from the roof of the house I was staying in at one point, which was lovely, although I wasn't in a position to photograph it at that time. Luckily it stayed for a few days; maybe if they come back another year I'll catch images of nesting and rearing chicks.
Federation Square is a cultural precinct in Melbourne, Australia. It comprises a series of buildings containing a public broadcaster, art galleries, a museum, cinemas, exhibition spaces, auditoria, restaurants, bars and shops around two major public spaces, one covered (The Atrium), the other open to the sky, and composed of two spaces that flow into one another (St. Paul's Court and The Square). The majority of the precinct is built on top of a concrete deck over busy railway lines. Construction began in 1998 and the site opened in 2002.
Federation Square occupies roughly a whole urban block bounded by Swanston, Flinders, and Russell Streets and the Yarra River. The open public square is directly opposite Flinders Street Station and St Paul's Cathedral. The layout of the precinct helps to connect the historical central district of the city with the Yarra River and a new park Birrarung Marr. This refocusing of the city on the Yarra River also partly reinforces links with the Southbank district, whose redevelopment has been ongoing as a key part of central Melbourne since the late 1980s.
The site of Federation Square has had a variety of former uses. The Gas and Fuel Buildings, Jolimont Yard and the Princes Bridge railway station were the immediate predecessors, though in the 19th century there was a morgue on the site. The result of an international design competition in 1997, Federation Square was designed by Don Bates and Peter Davidson of Lab Architecture Studio. A key part of the plaza design is its large, fixed public screen, which has been used to broadcast major sporting events, such as the AFL Grand Final, and still continues to do so. During the 2006 FIFA World Cup, thousands of football fans braved cold nights to watch the matches on the Federation Square screen.
The complex of buildings forms a rough U-shape around the main open-air square, oriented to the west. The eastern end of the square is formed by the glazed walls of The Atrium. While bluestone is used for the majority of the paving in the Atrium and St. Paul's Court, matching footpaths elsewhere in central Melbourne, the main square is paved in 470,000 ochre-coloured sandstone blocks from Western Australia, intended to invoke images of the Outback. The paving is designed as a huge urban artwork called 'Nearamnew', by Paul Carter and gently rises above street level, containing a number of textual pieces inlaid in its undulating surface.
I personally thought the whole site was an ugly modern monstrosity....'carbuncle' comes to mind. Seen from the Eureka Skydeck on the 88th floor of 7, Riverside Quay, Southbank in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
During high-speed travel, especially near the speed of light, everything in the universe would seem to lie in the same place, unseparated and undifferentiated, directly ahead. This bizarre wrinkle comes from the effect of aberration. When we drive through a snowstorm, the flakes seem to come from in front of us, while the rear window hardly gets hit at all. The same thing happens with light. Our planetās eighteen-miles-per-second motion around the sun causes stars to shift position by several seconds of arc from their actual locations. As we increase our velocity, this effect grows ever more dramatic until at just below lightspeed, the entire contents of the cosmos appear to hover in a single blindingly bright ball, dead ahead.

The CBC broadcast yesterday recommended switching from non-stick frying pans, with there are potentially toxic coatings, to old fashioned cast iron pans, so I photographed my set of >60 year old cast iron frying pans that I've used daily for decades. These pans can be a significant source of dietary iron, especially when acidic sauces (think tomato sauce) are cooked in them. When the coating of years of cooking start to build up on the pan exteriors, I just put them in my oven when I run a high heat self-cleaning cycle and they come out like new....they just need to be re-seasoned.

Happy Caturday from Broadcast. Named after the very special British band whose lead singer, Trish Keenan experienced an untimely death when she was only in her early 40s. Trish wrote to me before she died and told me how much she liked the photos I had taken of her, which really meant a lot to me.
