A diptych photograph captures a woman in a red '05' jersey and floral skirt ordering from a white food truck. The left panel shows her leaning up to the service window, while the right panel reveals the menu with handwritten signs advertising shrimp burritos, tacos, and burritos with prices like $5 and $6. The scene has a candid, film-like quality with visible grain and light leaks, evoking a nostalgic, everyday moment.
Award for Martial Skill for Avacal. When printed, the majority of the bottom will be cut away. It is based on two Norse Swords I found. The one in the back has a nice photo up in Flickr: www.flickr.com/photos/nielsprovos/7574692532/lightbox/ and a little write up the photographer did here: www.provos.org/index.php?/archives/103-On-a-quest-for-Vik... saying its 9th/10th Century from Denmark.
The sword in the front I adapted from here: www.myarmoury.com/talk/viewtopic.php?t=22401 down the page a bit #"86. A sword found in Södermanland, Sweden, made in the late 10th Century." The one with the Bears where I put the Raven heads.
This website had some really great photos and starting points for research. Including this great thread on what the grips should look like, so putting the writing on the grip lost us out on some very fancy decorations. www.myarmoury.com/talk/viewtopic.php?t=13019&postdays...
If I could have translated this site a little better I would have had other great options as well but I couldn't read for certain that these were in the timeperiod I was aiming for:
For years I have been collecting misspelt phoenixes - shops, businesses, several pubs, a garage, a carwash, even - sadly - a tattoo. Tonight, my old employer, ITV, managed to top and tail every break in the Harry Potter movie with an incorrect caption. This has to be the most public "Pheonix" ever. Made my day.

Beomeosa (범어사 or Temple of the Nirvana Fish) is a head temple of the Jogye Order of Korean Buddhism in Cheongnyong-dong, Geumjeong-gu, Busan, South Korea. Built on the slopes of Geumjeongsan, it is one of the country's most known urban temples.
As it was established by decree of King Munmu, Beomeosa Temple began on 360 gyeol of land and had 360 dormitory rooms. However, it was almost reduced to ashes during the Japanese invasion (1592-1597). Later, in 1613, monks like Ven. Myojeon and Ven. Haemin renovated some of its Dharma halls and the dormitory. The Main Buddha Hall and One Pillar Gate are known to have been built at that time.

A 1940's Fordson Roadless Half-Track 4 cylinder petrol/paraffin Tractor Registration No. FRP364 and Serial No. 640672, The Air Ministry placed a large order for Fordson Roadless Crawlers during 1936, these Tractors had been distributed to various Airfields by 1937. However, the RAF encountered some problems with the Tractors pitching when travelling at speed, to overcome this problem, Roadless introduced a 'Fore-Carriage Arrangement' in 1938. The front axle turned the Crawler into a 'Half-Track' and the front wheels now controlled the steering, the Half-Track was more stable and easier to drive. The Fore-Carriage Arrangement also provided a platform for other attachments such as the chain-driven Hesford Winch fitted to this machine. Such Tractors provided sterling service with the RAF throughout the War Years and were used for Mowing Airfields, Aircraft Recovery, hauling Fuel Bowsers and Bomb Trailers, and even sweeping the Runways clear of snow. The E-Type (Elastic Girder) Rubber-Jointed Tracks had rubber blocks that acted as flexible joints between the metal plates. They were silent in operation and Roadless claimed that the frictionless joints were more efficient and required no maintenance, the rubber blocks eliminated shocks and the wear was said to be negligible. This excellent example is finished in 'Air Force Blue' or 'RAF Blue' which is a medium shade of the colour azure, the shade derives from the Light Blue Uniforms issued to the newly formed British Royal Air Force in 1920, some Airfield Vehicles had a 'Yellow Roof' to make them more visible but in the case of Fordson Roadless Half-Track this wasn't possible !

Merle, Ouzel Cock
One of Ireland's top-20 most widespread garden birds.
Status: Resident, and winter visitor from Norway, Sweden, Germany & Denmark
Conservation Concern: Green-listed in Ireland. The European population has been assessed as Secure.
Identification: The commonest and most widespread member of the thrush family In Ireland. The males's all black plumage and bright yellow bill is unmistakable, however females are much browner, with speckles on the upper breast and at first glance resemble a Song Thrush. Often cocks long tail when alarmed or when running along ground.
Similar Species: Starling, Song Thrush, Ring Ouzel
Call: One of the favourite songsters. Song is rather slow, mellow and fluty, the notes ranging widely and the sound quite far-carrying. The quality of sound resembles Song Thrush, but the phrases do not repeat, but ramble on continually changing slightly. Calls include an agitated "chink, chink, chink" or "chack, chack..", a whinnying horse-like cry and a thin "psew" .
Diet: Insects, especially earthworms. Also berries and other fruit including apples. Comes to bird tables.
Breeding: Breeds throughout Ireland in many different habitats - mostly in hedgerows and gardens. Nest in trees or bushes - especially brambles and ivy, but also conifers. Will use large open-fronted nestboxes.
Wintering: Irish breeders are largely sedentary. Migrants from the Continent arrive in autumn.
Where to See: Widespread and common throughout Ireland.
Physical characteristics
Medium-sized, round-headed, rather long-tailed, noisy thrush, differing from all other west Palearctic Turdus in uniformly or mainly dark plumage. Black in male, and rufous-brown in female. Only obvious features are yellow bill in male, pale throat in female. Flight wavering, with fast bursts of wing-beats, rather long, rounded tail obvious. Song rich and fluting. Sexes dissimilar, little seasonal variation.
Habitat
Exceptionally diverse, including dense woodland, varied types of farmland, heaths moors, some wetlands, and settled sites including inner cities. Found in middle and overlapping to lower middle and upper latitudes of west Palearctic, including oceanic islands and coasts as will as milder boreal and temperate continental regions. Given shelter, will tolerate wet, windy, and cool situations better than very warm and dry ones, prefers moisture and shade, with ample access to bare ground, layers of dead leaves or short grass and herbage.
Other details
Turdus merula is a widespread breeder across most of Europe, which constitutes >50% of its global breeding range. Its European breeding population is extremely large (>40,000,000 pairs), and was stable between 1970-1990. The species underwent a small increase during 1990-2000, with increases in the sizeable populations in Germany, France and Italy, and stable or increasing trends across most of the rest of Europe.
This thrush inhabits north-western Africa and a major part of Europe, being absent only from northern Scandinavia and Finland. In Asia its distribution is extending from Turkey to southern China. In southern and western Europe the species is sedentary, but the birds of the north and the east are migratory and winter in the south-west. Originally a bird of dense forest, this species has become adapted to man-made environments and urban areas since the last century. The total population of Europe, Russia not included, is amounting to 43 million breeding pairs
I recently discovered that a neighborhood home was a "Sears Mail Order Home". I asked the owners if they were aware. They were not but were surprised and delighted at the discovery.
Just two of the latest Bricklink orders I have recently recieved. I am still waiting on an order from HAZEL. Can you guess what I am making?????
Finished order for @kayke-knadle ♥
6-7 white roses and gypsophilia, with white pearls, gold leafing, and gold/white glitter.
2x 4″ crowns, one in mori browns/oranges with gold glitter, and one with blue/white fade with white glitter.

Physical characteristics
An inhabitant of the far north, the Glaucous Gull is a large, pale gull with a large bill. The adult appears very white. Its back and wings are light gray, and the wingtips are white, with no black on the wing. The tail is white. The legs are pink, and the eyes are yellow. The bill is yellow with a red spot. In the non-breeding season, the adult's head is streaked with brown. Birds in breeding plumage have pure white heads and fleshy yellow eye-rings. The Glaucous Gull may be confused with the Glaucous-winged Gull, with which it hybridizes. Like most of the large gulls, this is a '4-year gull,' meaning that it takes 4 years to reach adult plumage, with a different sub-adult plumage each year. Juveniles are mostly white with buff markings. The first-year plumage is distinguished from that of a Glaucous-winged Gull by the distinctly bi-colored bill with a dark tip and a flesh-pink base.
The Glaucous Gull usually associates with flocks of other roosting and feeding gulls such as Glaucous-winged and Herring Gulls. A predator and a scavenger, the Glaucous Gull will steal food from other birds. It forages while flying, walking, or swimming. In flight, it picks items off the surface of the water and may catch smaller birds.
Habitat
The Glaucous Gull is the only large gull common in the high Arctic. It inhabits cold, coastal bays, estuaries, and offshore areas. In winter, Glaucous Gulls have been found on large inland lakes. Nesting habitat is mainly cliff ledges, islands, and beaches. Foraging habitat includes garbage dumps, fish-processing plants, harbors, mud flats, sewage lagoons, flooded fields, and fish-spawning areas.
Other details
Larus hyperboreus breeds in Greenland, Svalbard, Iceland and arctic Russia, with Europe accounting for less than a quarter of its global breeding range. Its European breeding population is relatively small (<140,000 pairs), but was stable between 1970- 1990. Although the trends of the populations in Iceland and Russia during 1990- 2000 were unknown, the species was stable in Svalbard and the stronghold Greenland, and hence probably remained stable overall.
In the New World Glaucous Gulls are widespread and common in the far north where they are protected from human activities due to the remoteness. High Arctic habitats are slow to rebound from degradation, and these areas should be protected to maintain the population at its current healthy level. Populations in the eastern Bering Sea hybridize with Glaucous-winged Gulls.
Feeding
Glaucous Gulls eat fish and other aquatic creatures, as well as insects, birds, eggs, berries, carrion, and garbage.
Conservation
This species has a large range, with an estimated global Extent of Occurrence of 1,000,000-10,000,000 km². It has a large global population estimated to be 200,000-2,000,000 individuals (Wetlands International 2002). Global population trends have not been quantified, but the species is not believed to approach the thresholds for the population decline criterion of the IUCN Red List (i.e. declining more than 30% in ten years or three generations). For these reasons, the species is evaluated as Least Concern. [conservation status from birdlife.org]
Breeding
Pairs nest in colonies or alone on cliff tops, flat, rocky ground, ice, or snow. Both adults help build the nest, which is a mound of vegetation and miscellaneous debris, depressed in the center. Both incubate the 3 eggs for about 4 weeks. Both parents feed the downy chicks for close to 2 months. The young leave the nest on foot a few days after hatching, and they stay close to the nest until their first flight at 45-50 days, soon after which they become independent.
Migration
Migratory, partially migratory, or dispersive in different regions. East Greenland population migratory, believed to winter in Iceland. Resident in Iceland, where numbers much increased in winter. In Eurasia, winters as far north as coasts remain ice free, or refuse available. Present then, though in reduced numbers, on Jan Mayen and Spitsbergen; occurs (immatures predominating) on southern Novaya Zemlya except in winters of heavy ice formation; winters also in White Sea and on coasts of Murmansk and northern Norway. An abundant winter visitor to Faeroes, and reaches Britain and Ireland annually in variable numbers, usually rather small though in severe winters it can become almost common, especially in Scotland where a few aggregations of 80 or more have occurred. Timing of arrival in Britain also variable, according to weather conditions further north, and departures linked to late winter and early spring temperatures; few present before mid-October, and arrivals can continue into December. In mild seasons, departures begin late January or early February, though can be extended to mid-April.
