Substituting soft toys to try to make up for him not having litter-mates. He is a "big-boy" now, and has no more interest in his bottle! 😊

The Molen van Bels is a watermill in Mander (municipality of Tubbergen), about one kilometre outside Vasse. This upper mill on the Mosbeek was built in 1725 as a paper mill. Hendrik Meyer was the first papermaker. When the paper mill became less and less profitable, widow Meyer had a new water mill built on the other bank of the Mosbeek after 1845. She used this for grinding chicory, which was used as a coffee substitute. In 1860 this mill was converted into a corn mill. The mill pond was built in 1874. In 1916 Jannes Bels bought the mills. Landschap Overijssel has been the owner since 1958. On the site of the old paper mill, Theeschenkerij Watermolen Bels came into existence in 1962. In an annex there is an exhibition about mills in Overijssel.
This image was taken in February of this year right after the Swallow-tailed Kites returned from their wintering grounds in South America! It is hard to believe that most have finished nesting and are now teaching the young Kites how to hunt as they begin preparations for the return trip to South American in another month!! They are one of my favorite birds!! Hope you like the image! Thank you as always for all of the favorites and comments!!

The 'Molen van Bels' is a watermill in Mander (municipality Tubbergen). This overshot mill at the stream 'Mosbeek' was built in 1725 as paper mill and in 1860 converted into a cornmill. From the mid-19th century chicory (used as a coffee substitute) was also ground. The mill pond was built in 1874.
In 1914 the mill was converted to a turbine mill, but that was not a success. Today is the Mill of Bels a restaurant and tearoom.
My final tribute to Alabama 3 is this track, Aint goin to Goa, and in my case it's true, but this beach is a great substitute. I had great fun last night, as this lonely sweep of cloud lit up an otherwise blue sky. You can never tell with sunsets.

I was planning on doing a nice series on the attractive purple peninsulas of pickerelweed (Pontederia cordata) which occur around the lake, and set off in the canoe to do precisely that on a beautiful, sunny Saturday in the northwoods. Unfortunately, the winds kicked up after I departed, creating not only a bad day for photos of anything from the canoe, but also a bad day to be 66 years old as the breezes tested my mettle. (I'm not sure what a "mettle" is, but I am sure it was tested and hope it's not sore tomorrow.)
Thus you will have to make do with this spotted knapweed (Centaurea biebersteinii) which is not only also purple, but has the added peculiar distinction of apparently being named for Justin Bieber. Or perhaps the latter was named for the former. Either way, I would consider both highly invasive in their own right, and tho Justin would no doubt strongly disagree, I find the weed far prettier and recommend a taxonomical redo.
Some fake sugar for my tea this afternoon. Hit the spot after spending the morning out in the cold looking for a landscape shot.
Goldfinches are in full bright yellow plumage now. I got out the camera to photograph them when this guy showed up. The finches can wait.

Approaching Tunnel 1, the Rio Grande Ski Train marches up the Moffat Tunnel Subdivision east of Plainview, Colorado, on the morning of January 7, 2001. Pinch-hitting for ailing F40PH No. 242 on today’s train is Rio Grande GP40-2 No. 3105.
It is always nice catching the Union Yard/Midway Yard job when the usual 1824/1896 pair has gone to Northtown for refueling or inspection, etc., as the replacement power always seems to be something different. Back in mid-December it was an SD40-2R/SD75M combo that had the honors as they pulled a cut out of Union and headed over to Midway. Seeing one of the ex-ATSF ex-SD45-2s that are captive to Northtown is fun too. BNSF 1571 (ATSF 5702) was one of the five SD45-2s back in the day to wear the bicentennial scheme for a couple of years.
Sunday's Bay Street Shuttle climbs up the grade at Glen Ridge with GP40PH-2B 4212 leading. Normally the shuttle hosts Arrow III equipment, but due to an outage a GP40 was used for the weekend.
While I was trying to set up for the selfie uploaded yesterday, my son kindly volunteered (well, volunteered is an exaggeration) to be my substitute while I tried to set up focus, distance etc and to see what the posy of flowers would look like. I originally wanted to hold them out in front like this but ended up with a slightly different pose.
I decided I would use one of the images for my 10 portraits of him for the Flickr 220 x100 Challenge. He really liked this one.
First light breakfast for this Everglades Snail Kite and its family! It is nice to see them catch an Apple Snail close enough to you so that you can get a flight shot of them flying back to a perch to eat it! They are highly endangered and most are banded!! Thanks for looking and all of the favorites!! See everyone on Friday!!

I went to the garden center for wasp spray...couldn't find any, so came home with a selection of potted flowers instead...much better way to spend the money...I love the color on the pure white petals of this miniature carnation..as it matures, the color becomes more intense
The Rio Grande Zephyr train No. 18 pulls into Provo, Utah at 7:55 a.m, right on the advertised, the morning of July 31, 1981. By the early 1980s, a few changes to the RGZ had taken place. The factory pilot was replaced with a steel plate (similar in style to an E-unit) after an altercation with a dump truck destroyed the original. The Silver Banquet dining car was undergoing a rebuild, with a substitute UP diner in its place, nicknamed the “Golden Banquet”. The arrangement of the Budd dome and coach cars were repositioned in an unusual, nontraditional order. These changes took some getting used to.
Common dandelion
Scientific name: Taraxacum officinale
Biology:
Dandelion flowers from May to October but most profusely in May and June. A period of low temperature seems to intensify flowering but daylength does not have a great influence. Seedlings that emerge in spring may flower in their first year. Established plants that bloom in spring can flower again in autumn. The time from flowering to seed ripening is about 9-12 days. The fruiting period is from April to June. A flower head can produce up to 400 seeds but the average is 180. A plant may have a total of 2,000 to 12,000 seeds. Cut down flower stems do not produce any viable seed.
Dandelion seeds are wind dispersed and may travel up to 500 miles from the parent. Seeds have been recovered from irrigation water and can survive submergence for 9 months. Viable seeds have been found in cattle and horse droppings. Seedlings have been raised from the droppings of various birds.
As Food and Drink:
Did you know you can make wine out of Dandelions? There are lots of recipes for making Dandelion wine on-line. Or that the young leaves go great in salads? In fact, the family of plants that the Dandelion belongs to also includes lettuce! If you let a lettuce plant go to flower in your garden you'll see what I mean. And the roots of dandelions can serve as a coffee substitute when baked and ground. (Hint: if you are a real coffee aficionado, don't try this.) Hey, when life gives you lemons, make lemonade, or in this case if you have a yard full of Dandelions eat'em and drink'em. Apparently, you can make green and yellow dyes from the flowers, too.
The Rio Grande Zephyr pauses briefly at its scheduled 8:25 p.m. stop in Provo, Utah on a pleasant April evening in 1975. At left, the usual gang of devoted fans were on hand to greet the train’s arrival, likely discussing the substitute power on the point of the train.

As you may know, on May 6, 2026, Armstrong Collective's Canyon Spirit train traveling between Glenwood Springs and Moab struck a semi-tanker near Rifle, Colorado. The regular GP40-3 locomotives were disabled, and removed from the train.
Union Pacific SD70Ms No. 4867 and 4298 were assigned as substitute power out of Denver on May 12th. On day three of the journey to Salt Lake City, I photographed the train passing through the Jordan Narrows, about 20 miles from the end of the westward journey in Salt Lake City.
Over one-third (≈34 %) of UK bank branches have disappeared from the high street in the last five years (2019–24).
The closures are part of a broader shift to digital banking, changing customer habits and operational priorities for banks.
Further closures remain planned into 2025–27 as traditional banks continue to reshape their networks.

Ich wurde nach einem Ersatz für DOKUMOL gefragt. Ich habe zwar eine eigene Rezeptur für einen etwas kontrastreicheren Entwickler (Catechol), doch ich weiß wie Anwender ticken (bin ja selbst einer) – einmal Dokumol, immer Dokumol.
Grundsätzlich sollte man nicht zuviel erwarten, denn mehr als eine halbe Gradation kontrstreicher ist kaum möglich. Bei einer Verdünnung von 1+9 ist der Unterschied zu „normalen“ Entwicklern recht gering. Bei 1+6 verbunden mit einer ca. 2/10 bis 3/10 Blende kürzeren Belichtungszeit, sieht man schon einen Unterschied, andererseits würde fast jeder normale Entwickler bei gleicher Vorgehensweise ähnlich reagieren.
Eine interessante Verwendung für beide Entwickler ist die als Erstentwickler für klar differenzierte Tonwete bis in die Mitteltöne, die dann noch nicht vorhandenen Lichter holt man mit einem zweiten (normal oder weich arbeitendem) Entwickler.
Für kontrastarme Negative, die eine Filterung nahe Gradation 5 benötigen, oder dann immer noch einen zu kontrastarmen Print erzeugen, kann DOKUMOL wie auch CATECHOL einen leichten Vorteil bringen.
Bildbeispiele auf Multigrade IV RC pearl von links nach rechts:
SE2 1+10 2 Minuten vs. CATECHOL 1+6 90 Sekunden vs. DOKUMOL 1+6 90 Sekunden
Um die Eingangsfrage zu beantworten, machbar ist das. Und wenn die Nachfrage das hergeben würde, wäre der nächste Schritt, das „ungute“ Hydrochinon durch Monosulfonat zu ersetzen, würde aber einen noch höheren Preis erfordern.

I was asked for a substitute for DOKUMOL. Although I have my own recipe for a slightly higher-contrast developer (Catechol), I know how users think (being one myself) – once Dokumol, always Dokumol.
Basically, you shouldn't expect too much, because it's hardly possible to achieve more than half a grade of higher contrast. At a dilution of 1+9, the difference to ‘normal’ developers is quite small. At 1+6 combined with an exposure time that is approx. 2/10 to 3/10 f-stops shorter, you can already see a difference, but on the other hand, almost any normal developer would react similarly if the same procedure were used.
An interesting use for both developers is as a first developer for clearly differentiated tones up to the mid-tones, with the highlights that are not yet present being brought out with a second (normal or soft-acting) developer.
For low-contrast negatives that require filtering close to gradation 5, or that still produce a print with too little contrast, DOKUMOL and CATECHOL can offer a slight advantage.
Image examples on Multigrade IV RC pearl from left to right:
SE2 1+10 2 minutes vs. CATECHOL 1+6 90 seconds vs. DOKUMOL 1+6 90 seconds
To answer the initial question, yes, it is feasible. And if demand were to warrant it, the next step would be to replace the ‘unpleasant’ hydroquinone with monosulfonate, but this would require an even higher price.

The Malvaceae, or the mallows, are a family of flowering plants estimated to contain 243 genera with 4225+ species. Well-known members of this family include okra, cotton, and cacao. The largest genera in terms of number of species include Hibiscus (300 species), Sterculia (250 species), Dombeya (250 species), Pavonia (200 species), and Sida (200 species).
Large deciduous tree, occasionally on deciduous forested hills and slopes. The tree is commonly known as Kullu (in Hindi), Kandol (in Marathi) and Indian Ghost Tree (in English).
Gum karaya is exuded from Sterculia urens, a large bushy tree growing to about 30 ft (10 m) in height on the dry rocky hills and plateaus of central and northern India. Originally introduced as a substitute for gum tragacanth, many uses were found and commercial quantities increased rapidly until its use became second only to that of gum arabic.

When the company I worked for introduced Quality Assurance principles in 1988, as part of my role I taught the history and application of Quality Management techniques to my staff. I used to hold up Arnott's Biscuits as a leading example. All Aussies will know and love Arnott's wonderful biscuits.....until not all that long ago they used to deliver their products in sparkling red vans that were never dirty, always shining clean and personally I had never found an Arnott's Biscuit that I didn't like nor that was presented and opened without perfection. Now those to me at the time were some important hallmarks of TQM (Total Quality Management) that I thought were great examples for my students....exceeding customer's expectations, consistent quality of product.
I know many of you will have studied and applied this stuff in your professional and perhaps personal lives in recent times. This mural of an Arnott's advertising sign brought back those memories and I still love their biscuits (many made within a couple of kilometres from us in Brisbane, at times I can still smell their vanilla creams!) - although they are not so good for me health wise these days. Sadly in some ways, Arnotts was sold to Campbell's (soups) of the USA quite a few years ago, amid some controversy about selling off the farm and is now owned by American investment company KKR - see link below.
Today, they have modified their advertising to simply..."There is no substitute".
This is one of a number of old signs at Scotty's Garage.
Two VIA Rail trains are at Brockville, Ontario on this day with no VIA power to lead. A Canadian National MLW RS-18 has varnish on the mainline while an EMD GP-9 hols on the lead to Smith Falls and Ottawa. I remember some sort of connecting trains that would make moves here. These might have been it. I believe a small engine house or facility was here to house the Ottawa power. These Ottawa trains eventually were LRC strongholds that came straight from Toronto.
I did not want to use the cork screw for its' usual purpose - I will save that bottle of vino for another day.
The substitute for the vino was the never let us down "potato" or "potatoe". The end result of this labor was not a shot of an oil patch but this potato patch image.
As the IHB sees a sudden surge in traffic, two former NS GP38-2s are filling in at Gibson building autorack trains. IHB 5627 is seen here hard at work on the West end.

Hawthorn fruits are edible, especially after frost, they contain sugars (10-15%), malic acid, tannins, coloring, pectin and other substances. They are used to make jelly, sometimes preserved with sugar, dried fruits are used as a tea substitute.
If you had to put a freight engine as a substitute on a passenger train, I doubt you could do much better than this. Rio Grande GP30 No. 3002, built by EMD for the D&RGW in April 1962, brings train No 18 to a stop to load passengers in Provo, Utah the morning of May 18, 1979.
This temple was constructed on a mostly artificial spur. It dates to c. 450 BC, measuring 38.15 x 16.90 m: it is in Doric style, peripteros 6 columns wide by 13 long, preceded by a pronaos and opisthodomos. The basement has four steps.
Current remains (including anastylosis from the 18th Century onwards) consist of the front colonnade with parts of the architrave and of the frieze. Only fragments of the other three sides survive, with few elements of the cella. The building was damaged in the fire of 406 BC and restored in Roman times, with the substitution of marble tiles with ones of clay, and the addition of a steep rise in the area where today can be seen the remains of the altar.
