The ROG Thunderbird contract for Greater Anglia is planned to run out in the next couple of days - is this the last hurrah for 37608, or will the contract be extended?

Well, I had to call it that on this occasion, at least I didn't mention the B word ;))

My partner's dogs Oski and Lucy associate me with walks, so that every time I visit, they get very excited.

So we don't use the word 'walk' or 'the W word' but instead refer to taking them for a Weetabix, though there are signs already that they've made the connection, leaving us no choice but to change it again.

Maybe I'll be taking them for a honey nut cluster at the weekend if the weather will allow it.

Operation Shingle (January 22, 1944), during the Italian Campaign of World War II, was an Allied amphibious landing against Axis forces in the area of Anzio and Nettuno, Italy. The operation was commanded by Major General John P. Lucas and was intended to outflank German forces of the Winter Line and enable an attack on Rome. The resulting combat is commonly called the Battle of Anzio. (Read the article on wikipedia).

Rail Operations Group Class 37 diesel locomotive 37611 "Denise" has arrived at Stafford with ex Transpennine Express set 10 Mk 5 coaching stock as 5Q70 10.45 Long Marston MOD to Wolverton Centre Sidings. The locomotive has detached from the stock and is seen preparing to run around before proceeding southwards.

Operation Barbarossa started on June 22nd, 1941, with the Germans rapidly invading the Soviet Union and decimating Soviet forces in virtually every battle. Hitler's plan was to conquer Eastern Europe for future German colonization called "Lebensraum". Ukraine was especially desired since at the time it was the breadbasket of Europe. When the Germans were conquering the Soviet Union, the Ukrainians and other peoples welcomed them as heroes because of the fact they "freed" them from communist oppression. The Holodomor was fresh in the average Ukrainians memory which was an artificial famine that killed millions and they were still resentful towards Stalin.

 

Two groups that wanted to take advantage of this moment was the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN) which was into Italian fascism, was led by Andriy Melnik and the younger more violent OUN-B, was National Socialist which was led by Stepan Bandera. They originally existed because they were angry that Poland was "occupying" the province of Galicia which is claimed by both Poles and Ukrainians (even to this day).

 

However, the Ukrainians would learn that the Nazis were replacing one form of oppression with another. Hitler hated Slavic peoples and wanted them enslaved, "transferred" (possibly to Siberia) or at worst exterminated. When the OUN declared an independent Ukrainian state, that was shut down as quickly as possible. The Nazis committed atrocities against the Ukrainians which soon led to the growth of more partisan groups and led to some joining the Soviet army by the time they started "liberating" it from the Nazis.

 

In a last ditch effort, the Nazis freed imprisoned Ukrainian nationalist leader, Stepan Bandera to inspire the Ukrainians but that ultimately failed. Even during his imprisonment all the OUN-B did was mass murder Poles in the provinces of Galicia and Volhynia. Today he's seen as a controversial figure as he is popular in Western Ukraine which is full of Catholic Ukrainians and hated in Eastern Ukraine which is full of Orthodox Russians.

Rio Grande Heritage SD70ACe No. 1989 leads UP's SSCSC-28 on the former D&RGW through the Jordan Narrows east of Riverton, Utah on Oct. 28, 2006. The train ran east between Salt Lake City and Provo, returning west to Salt Lake City with the Southern Pacific Heritage SD70ACe, No. 1996 on the point.

April 2030, after information that has been intercepted by the crushed Warsaw Pact about the weak points of DARKWATER's defense around New York City and the massive planning that followed, the attack may commence. Platoons of EU soldiers infiltrate and squeeze through the cracks in the defense system. The most efficient way to infiltrate was to move through towering crates and harbor ships to attack the grand city.

Operation Transformation 2012 challenge 2

The outline of our Galaxy, the Milky Way, and of its neighbouring Magellanic Clouds, in an image based on housekeeping data from ESA’s Gaia satellite, indicating the total number of stars detected every second in each of the satellite's fields of view.

 

Brighter regions indicate higher concentrations of stars, while darker regions correspond to patches of the sky where fewer stars are observed.

 

The plane of the Milky Way, where most of the Galaxy’s stars reside, is evidently the brightest portion of this image, running horizontally and especially bright at the centre. Darker regions across this broad strip of stars, known as the Galactic Plane, correspond to dense, interstellar clouds of gas and dust that absorb starlight along the line of sight.

 

The Galactic Plane is the projection on the sky of the Galactic disc, a flattened structure with a diameter of about 100 000 light-years and a vertical height of only 1000 light-years.

 

Beyond the plane, only a few objects are visible, most notably the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds, two dwarf galaxies orbiting the Milky Way, which stand out in the lower right part of the image. A few globular clusters – large assemblies up to millions of stars held together by their mutual gravity – are also sprinkled around the Galactic Plane.

A set of EMD's escaped from the Iron Range to power rock trains for the CN. The CN is busy adding about 4 miles of double track to the old EJ&E between Sutton and Spaulding. Here is O49081 getting the ballast unloaded using older conveyor belt technology and manual operation (neat to watch it unload). This once was a sleepy belt loop around Chicago for the EJ&E, now is a main artery for the CN. Power 6254,405,6256, too bad the sun was not my friend here.

A big hornet nest on the tall trees has been destroyed. Six people from Public Defense Department (JPA) called upon by the villagers came with a long prop, cotton waste and gasoline. About 15 minutes later, they start the flame and bring it up to burn the nest. Then, a colony of hornet (Giant Wasps) has turned to ash.

The spread wings of the Crested Caracara provide a subframe for the second Caracara at the top of a cell tower they have frequented over the past week or so. Before they move on, I will take as many pictures as possible. By the way, I’m not really sure if this counts as “subframing.”

The massive Pine Island Glacier in West Antarctica is seen out the window of NASA's DC-8 research aircraft as it flies at an altitude of 1,500 feet, Tuesday, Oct. 27, 2009. This was the seventh science flight of NASA?s Operation Ice Bridge airborne Earth science mission to study Antarctic ice sheets, sea ice, and ice shelves. The glacier is one of the primary targets of the mission because of the rapid rate at which it is losing ice to the sea. Photo Credit: (NASA/Jane Peterson)

In organising this stealth operation times were agreed, watches synchronised and 4 troops would meet at the given time.

 

Officer Dixon and Fly by the seat of his pants Pedlar had assembled at the RV point, yet no signs of the other 2 soldiers.

 

Polite whistling was exchanged between OD & FP to while away a bit of time, but still no show.

 

So the two dedicated soldiers decided to put on their combat equipment, namely wellies and set off alone on this mission.

 

As the two soldiers were almost approaching the venue to be photographed, their attention was drawn to a lady several metres up the cliff face sitting at a table of the Port William pub, waving her arms in an uncoordinated manner, shouting “get up here, my glass is empty again, your round”.

 

So the two soldiers duly obliged where they joined Christine and Dave.

With glasses charged a thoroughly enjoyable 4 way conversation ensued in one of the most idyllic drinking locations on the north coast of Cornwall.

 

Following a whole load of banter it was felt while we were still able to walk we had better head down and see what we could load onto our memory cards at Trebarwith Strand.

 

So good to meet up again Christine, Dave and Mark.

 

Hope you all have a great weekend out there in Flickerland.

I so appreciate you viewing my photos and leaving the comments and banter

Almost done for the season! All the volunteers and most of the staff are finished for this year. Just the shippers remain, but have a break right now until January 7th. The remainder of all the shoebox gifts are destined for West Africa. We will start to ship on January 9th. I will be part of this, along with my son.

Happy New Year, my Flickr friends! I will be out of the country on a road trip until January 6th.

Weekly entry for Andromeda's Gates on Eurobricks

May 15, 2020

 

Canadian Forces Snowbirds fly over Edmonton on their cross country tour to salute front line healthcare workers and all Canadians doing their part to fight the spread of Covid-19 - dubbed OPERATION INSPIRATION. Heather and I saw the CT-114 Tutors fly almost directly over our house at 14:37 in the Snowbird signature formation called BIG DIAMOND. Two days later, on May 17th, Snowbird 11 crashed shortly after takeoff in Kamloops, BC. We mourn the death of Captain Jenn Casey and hope for the speedy recovery of Captain Richard MacDougall.
