In Wales, the Brecon Beacons were named for beacons used to warn of approaching English raiders. In England, the most famous examples are the beacons used in Elizabethan England to warn of the approaching Spanish Armada. Many hills in England were named Beacon Hill after such beacons. In England the authority to erect beacons originally lay with the King and later was delegated to the Lord High Admiral. The money due for the maintenance of beacons was called Beaconagium and was levied by the sheriff of each county.[6] In the Scottish borders country, a system of beacon fires was at one time established to warn of incursions by the English. Hume and Eggerstone castles and Soltra Edge were part of this network.[7]

A macro photo of a microwave's front window, lit from the inside with a yellow/green light.
Also, a clue to an upcoming image...
Incidentally, this image qualifies as a sort of optical illusion; it sort of messes with the eyes. More specifically, it works as a weak stereogram (thanks to Anna Manolaki for bringing this to my attention) . Basically, if you focus on the center(ish) dot, and then at the same time try to use your peripheral vision to take in the entire image, the dots will seem to almost float off the screen, giving it a 3-D feel. Oh, and if you have time, you should definitely check out more stereograms online--they are bizarre, frustrating and fun! This frustrating part about 'getting' stereograms, however, is training your eyes to 'see' them. You basically have to learn how to see a stereogram.
Also, as Matt Gilley pointed out, you'll see a sphere/bulge as you zoom in and out.

Love baked potatoes, but hate preheating the oven and then cooking them for over an hour? Use your microwave, and they'll be ready in...10 MINUTES! Wash potatoes (I cook two at a time), dry, and then pierce all over with a fork; otherwise (no kidding) they'll explode in your microwave. Place them in the microwave on a paper plate, regular plate, or even a paper towel. Set your power to 80% and your cook time to four minutes. When done use an oven mitt (potatoes are hot) to turn each potato over and then once again set power to 80% and cook for another four minutes. When done let stand in the microwave for a minute, then carefully remove (they will be blistering hot inside and out) and enjoy. Pictured above I slathered mine with butter, salt and pepper, parmesan cheese, and salsa. Once cooked you could also use them to make mashed potatoes, or potato salad. Enjoy!
When you have a full fridge, no cake saver, and need to safely store a cake from marauding critters, you store that confection in the microwave - right?.....

A break from Hong Kong for the moment and some more recent photography - a man with a microwave oven on his head in London, not something you see every day!
Some photography from London in January 2024 - a bit of street photography; some under-street photography (a Knights Templar altar in a crypt); and an unwelcome and dangerous encounter.
You are looking at the smoking gun of the Big Bang, known as the Cosmic Microwave Background. This is the oldest light in the universe, originating from the hot dense plasma which filled all of space at the beginning of time. This light is extremely smooth and uniform, with only exceedingly small variations when looking in one direction or another. Today, the temperature of this light is just 2.73 degrees above absolute zero, with most of space being within about 1 part in 100,000 of this temperature. The contrast of this image has been greatly enhanced, so as to only look at the variations in the light. Blue areas are colder than average, while red are hotter.

“The normalization principle means making available to all people with disabilities people patterns of life and conditions of everyday living which are as close as possible to the regular circumstances and ways of life or society.”
Normalization involves the acceptance of people with disabilities, with their disabilities, offering them the same conditions as are offered to other citizens. It involves an awareness of the normal rhythm of life – including the normal rhythm of a day, a week, a year, and the life-cycle itself. It involves the normal conditions of life – housing, schooling, employment, exercise, recreation and freedom of choice. This includes “the dignity of risk”, rather than an emphasis on “protection”.
The theory of Social Role Valorisation is closely related to the principle of normalization, having been developed with normalization as a foundation

Long out of service American Telephone and Telegraph Long Lines microwave tower and feed horns atop the old Mountain Bell Telephone building in Price, Utah.
The American Telephone & Telegraph Long Lines wire, cable, and microwave radio relay network provided long-distance services to AT&T and its common carrier customers. By the 1970s, 95% of distance and 70% of intercity telephone calls in the United States were carried by AT&T through towers such as these. Before utilizing microwave relay and coaxial cables, AT&T used actual copper lines for long-distance service.
After the break-up in the 1980's AT&T and its successor companies began replacing its intercity microwave with satellite and later fiber optics. These old towers are slowly coming down and soon will be only a memory.
