This was a surprise cake for my dentist who is celebrating his birthday on the same day as I.
He couldn't believe it..joked around....about a perfect shape..of the tooth..no cavities..great flossing etc.
Lunchtime walk in Watts Meadow - and clearly had my fungi-spotting glasses on, found lots! And I'm pretty sure this is a new species for the site - there were 2 branches covered with patches of this spikey crust.
First night of UV light Moth Trapping in 2022. Just one catch.
I dont think there are many records of it in County Londonderry so I will report it on the Biodiversity IE app.
Trichopteryx carpinata (Borkhausen, 1794)
Description: Wingspan 30-34mm. Adults are usually whitish grey with darker cross-lines, which vary in intensity; the darker patches more evident along the costa. Hindwings pale grey with narrow dark line on outer edge.
Similar Species: It is similar in appearance to the Mottled Grey Colostigia mulistrigaria whose flight period overlaps with this species.
Flight Period: Mid-March to early May.
Status: Widely distributed in southern counties, especially in parts of east Tyrone and Fermanagh, but apparently more local elsewhere. Recorded for the first time in 1991 at the Argory and subsequently Annagarriff Wood NNR in Peatlands Park, Armagh. Since then its has been taken at many other localities. It seems to have been overlooked in many well-recorded sites. However, increased trapping during the 1990s (especially during the early part of the year) has been a major factor in its discovery at many other localities.
Ecology: A species mainly associated with heaths and bogs, especially those with adjoining birch scrub. Adults are attracted to light in reasonable numbers. The larvae can be found in June and July on Honeysuckle Lonicera periclymenum, willow Salix spp., birch Betula spp and Alder Alnus glutinosa. It overwinters as a pupa.
Dog-Toothed Violet
A dog-toothed violet I found near Short Creek. The skeeters were so bad Lilly laid down between the flower and me as if to say enough time to go.
My husband buying post-dinner sweet treats. Mostly because I urged him to; I think I have more of a sweet tooth than he does now.

I've a tooth-surgery in 3 hours to uproot/remove my Impacted 3-rd Molar. It has generally been a 'love-hate' acquaintance between the two of us. In the last couple of months, the relationship has largely fallen out, with gaping holes being unearthed. I've ceased to care about my 3-rd molar. My attention these days is largely devoted to the jazzy incisors. Those hussies!
I'm really really bad at making puns :(
...and that tooth looks ridiculously, fake, doesn't it?
The tooth-billed wren is 12 cm (4.7 in) long; one male weighed 11 g (0.39 oz). Adults have a grayish cinnamon crown, a grayish brown face, and a medium gray back. their throat and breast are buffy gray, the belly pale buff, and the flanks grayish white. The juvenile looks essentially the same.

9/52 - 52 Weeks of 2014: Macro
Because sometimes you just need to take a picture of your tooth brush before you brush your teeth.
Used Tungsten white balance as a basis, with a blue gel on the off camera speedlight (pointed behind the brush at a mirror and white bathroom sink), then tweaked from there, then used an adjustment brush and a few other masking layers to try and restore the brush to as close to original colors as possible, though I may still have a bit of the blue on the edges in some places (that part of my PS skills still a work in progress). Used a custom made action, learned from a tutorial while looking for processing techniques for the previous 52 weeks theme, then deactivated some of the layers and tweaked the others a bit. So, in that sense, I may as well add it into Sliders Sundays too.
This will be a transition for my Rebel T1i into a semi-retirement stage. I hope to utilize it as a second body, or maybe get it converted for some IR stuff at a later date. We shall see.
When I last checked for other photos that were taken on this date, I discovered that I had not yet posted anything from 19 September 2019. It turned out to be a great day for seeing mushrooms and other fungi when I drove west of the city. The fall of 2019 was absolutely amazing for mushrooms, after so much rain fell. The previous few years had produced very little in the way of fungi, so it was pure joy in the fall of 2019. I took so many photos that I'm sure will never end up being posted.
I literally gasped when I spotted a little cluster of pink/purple mushrooms (macro shot). They were growing part way up an embankment, fairly close to a fallen log. Normally, I never get down on my knees and especially my stomach, but these were just so amazing! Because they were growing on a slope, I was able to get very close and more or less avoid the background detail. By the time I had taken enough photos to satisfy myself, it was time to try and get up to a standing position. Thankfully, no people were walking by when this happened - slowly and painfully. I knew I would pay the price - and the price lasted for the next two whole weeks! It was nice to find this toothed fungus, too. Some fungi have gills, some teeth, and others have pores.
Tooth Rock in Alabama Hills. One of man rock features that have names added to them. There's endless shots in Albama Hills and the worse the weather the btter the shots.
Here's a shot from at night from the same location:
Another good deal that I was able to score while browsing through Ebay. I got her for $25 including shipping. The Tooth Fairy Barbie was designed by Sharon Zuckerman. I love her Grecian Goddess inspired dress !!!;-D!!!
The defense is about the sweet-tooth,
the honesty is about personal integrity,
the grovel is about bad-judgement,
politically I've no idea what it's all about.

The lamb had been busy suckling when its Mum suddenly moved. He seemed somewhat surprised - until, that is, he realised she was "tooth-tethered" to the lush grass and was only a couple of lengths away.
Bleating his disapproval, the lamb trotted after his Mum and within seconds was once again enjoying his afternoon tea...!
Mum, in the meantime, carried on munching on that lovely grass...!
Thanks so much for the very kind and encouraging comments beneath this photo...! Your support is very greatly appreciated.
My first attempt with Silver Efex 2. Had though about buying this several times but didn't think I would use it enough to justify the cost. Now it's free, it's worth a play! Taken at Whitstable Station.

Some of the famous atheists in the atheist Hall of Shame.
Stalin, Marx, Lenin, Kim Jong IL, Mao, Kim Jong Un, Pol Pot, Kruschev, Brezhnev, Honecker, Ceaușescu
Atheism proved itself, in the 20th century, to be the most horrendous, barbaric, murderous and criminal ideology the world has ever experienced. Countless millions suffered and died at the hands of this hideous ideology, they must never be forgotten.
The promised atheist/socialist utopia ... the idea of an atheist Heaven on Earth resulted in a diabolical Hell on Earth.
Who, but a complete idiot would want to resurrect such a monstrous, no-hope philosophy?
Present day, so-called 'new' (improved?) atheists (and communists) try to disassociate themselves from the disastrous record of the world's, first ever, official, atheist states, established in the great, atheist experiment of the 20th century.
But all the examples we have of official, atheist rule are horrendous. And, the tyranny still continues, wherever atheism is the dominant, ruling ideology, as in North Korea.
The ‘new’ atheists try to blame the 20th century’s persecution and brutality completely on communism. They claim it had nothing to do with atheism.
But, although communism is a disastrous economic system, there is no intrinsic reason why it should be brutal, or why it should hate religion, or why it should destroy churches and persecute and murder millions of Christians and people of other faiths.
That is the hallmark of atheist ideology, not of an economic system.
Communism is fatally flawed as an economic system. And, as it thrives on envy, class hatred and division, it is a an anathema to Christianity, and any other religion which preaches love for everyone. Consequently, it is the ideal bedfellow for atheism, but that is different from requiring an intrinsic hatred of God and religion as a matter of state, endorsed policy. That is essentially an atheist ideal.
If communists weren't atheists, why would they outlaw and attack all religion? Karl Marx, the founder of communism, hated religion, because he was also an atheist. He understood that communist, dialectic materialism, class war etc. is incompatible with most religions, so, it could be argued, that to be a bona fide communist, he also had be an atheist.
Lenin was a self-declared atheist who, together with his Soviet Bloc, atheist successors, tried to eliminate religion with brutal repression and wholesale murder.
Thus, history tells us that the atheist experiment has been tried and, from beginning to end, was a brutal and diabolical failure. The new atheists may say: “it's nothing to do with us gov.”
But who wants to risk such devastation again, by giving the atheist ideology another chance? Only a complete idiot would want to take that gamble.
However, it was only to be expected and it could easily have been predicted beforehand, that the inevitable result of atheism's lack of an absolute ethical or moral yardstick would be to wreak havoc on the world - and that is exactly what it did. .
Atheism hasn't changed at all in that respect, because it can't.
Atheism and secular humanism categorically reject the concept of intrinsic right and wrong. Therefore, the ephemeral values, moral relativism and situational ethics of atheism are the ideal recipe for abuse.
We can see from the belligerent, intolerant, rabble rousing rhetoric and anti-religious ranting of today's militant, new atheist zealots, that the leopard hasn't really changed its spots. Let no one doubt it - atheism has an horrendous and hideously, barbaric record... we must never let it happen again.
Moreover, it is a singularly perverse ideology that motivates its adherents to waste so much time of the only life they believe they have, trying to convince everyone else that they are doomed to eternal oblivion. The ultimate reward for atheists is to never know if they got it right, only if they got it wrong.
There is certainly no moral or rational defence for the atheist cult, past or present.
But what do atheists themselves say about their ethical and moral values?
They claim that they DO have an ethical and moral yardstick, and cite the Humanist Manifesto as representing the ethics and moral code of atheism.
So is it really true?
The Humanist Manifesto looks good at first glance, but like most proposals atheists have come up with, when examined closely, it is full of holes.
Problems, problems ....
1. You don’t have to sign up to the Humanist Manifesto to be an atheist.
2. Even if you do sign up to it, there is no incentive to follow it. No reward for following it, and no penalty for not following it. You are not going to be barred from being an atheist because you reject or break the rules of the Humanist Manifesto. It is not enforced in any way.
3. It borrows any desirable ethics, it may have, from Judeo-Christian values, there is no atheist, moral code per se.
Atheism is the ideology of naturalism. Genuine, naturalist, ethical values are basically the Darwinian, ‘law of the jungle’. Progressive evolution and improvement through the survival of the fittest/strongest, and the elimination of any who are weaker or unable to adapt - nature red in tooth and claw, In societal terms - the most powerful, wealthiest, most influential, most cunning, dominate and rule for their own benefit. Anything else in the Humanist Manifesto is actually a contradiction of social Darwinism and naturalism. Any socially desirable or compassionate ethics, which may be included in the H.M, are wholly inconsistent with atheist, materialist, naturalist, and evolutionist ideology.
4. By far the biggest flaw in the Humanist Manifesto is the fact that it is entirely ephemeral. It advocates 'situational ethics' and 'moral relativism'. And that major flaw makes it a worthless scrap of paper.
Why?
Because .....
Situational ethics is based on what people want or find desirable, not on any adherence to what is intrinsically right or wrong.
A good, example of humanist style, situational ethics in practice, is the gender selection abortions now being blatantly carried out in abortion clinics in Britain. It primarily discriminates against female babies, who are especially targeted for killing, because most of the parents who want it, prefer to have boys for cultural reasons.
The abortion clinics openly admit to it happening, and claim it is legal.
www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/pro-choice-aborti...
The abortion act of 1967 certainly did not intend that, and the Government admits it was not intended.
So we have a Government that knows it is going on, it also knows it is not what the abortion law intended, yet it is still reluctant to do anything about it.
Why?
Because it is wedded to the secularist concept of situational ethics, i.e. whatever people want, people get. Any concept of intrinsic right and wrong has to take a back seat, to whatever is the spirit of the times. And that is an example happening right now, in a so-called democracy.
The Nazi persecution of the Jews and other races they considered ‘inferior’ became popular through brainwashing of the public, and was eventually supported by a good proportion of the public.
Hitler cleverly used situational ethics to do what he had persuaded people was right and good.
So, all in all, the Humanist Manifesto and its purported ethical values, is a very dangerous document.
It gives carte blanche to any so-called ethical values, as long they become the fashionable or consensus opinion. Whatever people want, people get, or what a government can claim people want, they are justified in giving to them.
And for that reason it would not stop; a Lenin, a Stalin, a Hitler, a Mao, or a Pol Pot, even if they had signed up 100% to abide by the Humanist Manifesto.
In fact, the 20th century, atheist tyrants even called their regimes ... Democratic People's Republics. They claimed they were representing people's wishes, and thus carried out their 'situational ethics' on behalf of the people.
What about the common, atheist tactic of highlighting alleged crimes and wrongdoing committed by Christians?
The point is ....
Christians who do wrong, go against the teachings of Christianity. It is recognised as ‘sin’. If they blatantly and deliberately go against the intrinsic moral values and teaching of Christianity, they forfeit the right to continue to call themselves Christian. And they can even be excommunicated by the Church, if they fail to admit their actions are wrong.
And, without sincere sorrow and repentance, they don't get to go to the Christian Heaven.
End of story!
Atheists who do wrong, go against nothing, unless it is against the law of the land.
You cannot be chucked out of atheism for doing wrong, you cannot even be censored by atheism for doing wrong, it is a complete free for all, you can simply act with impunity according to your own desires and opinion. Atheists don’t recognise sin, right and wrong is not intrinsic or absolute. Atheism has no, unchanging, moral code. Right and wrong is, ultimately, just a matter of opinion
The atheist 'heaven' is right here on earth, and far from being a 'heaven' it is an horrendous nightmare. Anyone with any sense would call it a hell.
And even the law of the land need not stop atheists .....
Whenever, atheists get into a position of power they change the law to suit their situational ethics. Then they can do whatever they want.
That is what Stalin and all the other atheist tyrants did in their people's DEMOCRATIC republics.
And the atheist thirst for blood does not cease when they live in the so-called 'real' democracies, it is simply sanitised by atheist inspired, situational ethics.
They use their 'humanist' ethics to change the law, accompanied by 'newspeak' and propaganda.
So that what was once considered evil, is not only made legal, it is actually turned around so it is considered a virtue.
The wholesale and brutal slaughter, of the most vulnerable in society ... millions of unborn babies, is callously shrugged off as necessary, for 'free choice'.
Of course murder is always a free choice for the killer, only the dangerous, warped, atheist style, situational ethics could value a killer's free choice to kill, above the victim's right not to be killed, and make murder legal.
The callous slaughter of the unborn, which in most cases, was not even put to the people democratically (it was imposed on them by a handful of secularist politicians, lawyers and bureaucrats), is accompanied by the usual atheist lies and devious propaganda.
Doctors acting illegally over abortions get off scot-free ....
www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2609950/Scandal-doctors-...
So the secularists simply laugh off democracy, it doesn't stop them, if it gets in the way of their ideology, they just ignore it, like they do with science.
"Democratic societies" how do they impact on situational ethics?
We see, in practice, that democracy is treated with utter contempt .....
Why ask the people? They are apparently not qualified to consider such difficult matters of right and wrong, like whether babies should live or die? You can't give those ignorant peasants, plebs and rednecks a vote on it, ... leave it to the secularist EXPERTS and their wonderful, situational ethics based on 'reason' and 'science'.
We are told by atheist moralists that the unborn baby is not fully human, it is only a blob of jelly, which has, and deserves, NO rights. As usual, they deliberately ignore, or twist, the scientific facts.
And we are also told, anyone who supports the rights of the unborn babies not to be brutally ripped limb from limb is evil and a ‘far right’ fanatic, because they are interfering with free CHOICE.
So the atheist leopard certainly hasn't changed its deceitful, devious, brutal and murderous spots, even in so-called 'real' democratic societies. It simply legalises and sanitises evil and murder and makes it appear good.
Then it can claim atheism is extremely ethical and virtuous, with its own, beautiful, humanist code of morals and conduct .... Yeah Right!
Remind you of anyone?
Always remember ....
Atheist/humanist so-called ethics and morals depend entirely on OPINION, and that is why they are so extremely dangerous.
Atheism has no moral or ethical yardstick, no concept of God-given, human rights ... only OPINION.
But WHOSE opinion?
My opinion?
Your opinion?
Or maybe Richard Dawkins opinion?
Or Sam Harris's opinion?
Or how about Barrack Obama's opinion?
Or why not STALIN'S or POL POT'S opinion?
So don't be fooled by the relentless chorus from the 'new' atheists and humanists, that atheism has its own code of ethics and morals, their code of ethics is based on the OPINION of one or more of the following ... whoever is: the most vociferous, the most charismatic, the most cunning, the most influential, the most powerful, the wealthiest, the most successful propagandist, the most persuasive, the most repressive, or the most brutal.

Unjust laws/evil laws (such as legalised abortion) are effectively null and void. They should not be accepted by any right-thinking person.
