Ähnlich diesem aufgeregten Storchen hoch auf dem Dach, habe ich mich fast zwei Wochen lang gefühlt.

 

Er darf hier nicht ins Nest - ich wurde von Flickr ausgesperrt, obschon ich zahlendes Mitglied bin.

 

Flickr hat nämlich gleich festgestellt, dass ich einen neuen Aufenthaltsort habe, was logisch ist, wenn man in den Ferien weilt.

 

Ich habe immer und immer wieder versucht in Flickr zu kommen, schon deshalb, weil ich mich für eure guten und lieben Wünsche zu meinem Geburtstag bedanken wollte.

 

Neu anmelden ging auch nicht, obschon ich mein Kennwort auswendig weiss; Flickr war überzeugt, dass ich nicht die Katharina bin und unberechtigterweise auf diesen Account wollte. Ehrt mich eigentlich, wenn er so streng bewacht wird.

 

Nun bin ich seit heute wieder zu Hause, Flickr hat mir gleich eine SMS geschickt mit einem Code und HURRA ich darf wieder ins Flickr-Nestchen.

 

Alle die am 17. März an mich gedacht haben, danke ich herzlich; ich habe unzählig viele wunderschöne Bodensee-Frühlingsmomente erlebt, eine prachtvolle Gegend, die ich immer wieder gerne besuche.

 

Ich wünsche euch allen einen sonnigen Tag!

  

In 1886, the writer Guy de Maupassant published his eyewitness account of Monet at Étretat. "The artist walked along the beach, followed by children carrying five or six canvases representing the same subject at different times of the day and with different effects. He took them up and put them aside by turns according to changes in the sky and shadows." Monet painted the dramatically arched projection in the cliff at Étretat six times from this angle: twice during each of three visits to the Normandy coast in 1883, 1885, and 1886. He refined the pictures in his studio.

La Ceja, Colombia; Central Andes; 2.300 meters above sea level.

 

Hepatic Tanager is the most widely distributed Piranga tanager, ranging from the southwest United States south to northern Argentina. Its English name is based on the liver-red color of the adult male from the northern part of the species' range; however, its scientific name, flava, meaning "yellow," derives from the original description, which is based on a female from Paraguay. These names reflect both a characteristic of the genus Piranga, marked sexual dichromatism, and the broad range of coloration, habitat, and behavior encompassed within the Hepatic Tanager as currently recognized.

 

Even though the Hepatic Tanager is currently considered one species, much evidence, including a recent study of molecular genetics, indicates that up to 3 species could be recognized, corresponding to the 3 groups of subspecies combined long ago. These groups and their respective species names are the Hepatic Tanager (P. hepatica) of montane pine-oak forests from the southwestern United States to Nicaragua, the Tooth-billed Tanager (P. lutea) of forest edges in foothills and mountains from Costa Rica to northern and western South America, and the Red Tanager (P. flava) of open woodlands of eastern and southeastern South America.

Tangara xanthocephala

(Saffron-crowned Tanager / Tángara coronada)

 

Saffron-crowned Tanager is a brightly colored tanager with a distinctive yellow head. This species occurs through the Andes from Colombia and Venezuela south to Bolivia, and occupies humid montane forests and secondary woodlands.

 

Due to human destruction of habitat, it is hypothesized that the population numbers are decreasing. Like most Tangara tanagers, the Saffron-crowned is sexually monomorphic.

Meet the "Great Golden Digger Wasp".

No, judging by it's name it is not a wasp that seeks out middle-aged men with a good salary and a hefty 401 K (RRSP) account, the name relates to it's colouration .... the head and thorax are covered in a layer of golden hairs ... and how it lays and provides for it's eggs.

These non-aggressive wasps feed mainly on plant nectar but as the name implies "dig" tunnels into areas of soft soil. The females will dig multiple tunnels and when out on their forays the females will capture insects and sting them which will paralyze the insect, not kill it. She will then take the paralyzed insect back to a tunnel, drag it inside and lay an egg on the still live but immobile insect. She will exit the tunnel and conceal the entrance. The egg will hatch and the larvae will have a source of food to develope over the fall and winter until it emerges next spring. Males emerge to breed with the females, females emerge and construct the tunnels for it's nesting activities, so the cycle can continue.

While capturing insects for her egg laying efforts, these wasps are often chased and stripped of their prey by birds, so the female is often searching for prey to use for her egg laying chores.

In recognition of my channel reaching the milestone of 1,000,000 views, I’ve decided to dig an image out from the modern archive. Not taking into account my profile picture of a youthful 14 year old in the hot seat of 59206 from what seems a long time ago, which has been my avatar since day one, this was the first shot I added to Flickr and it's certainly not a shabby one!

 

57605 "Totnes Castle" approaches Kennaway Tunnel on its departure from Dawlish with the 2C51 17.50 Exeter St Davids-Penzance First Great Western “Veg-Ex" on the longest day of 2014, Saturday 21 June. The original upload only ever achieved 410 views and 3 faves. Apparently, it was also my favourite image at the time (little to say that is no longer the case); a far cry from the quality of my pictures today. As an editor's note, I used to have a policy of deleting original JPEG's once I had finished editing (sounds a bit like the BBC), but remarkably this one was kept intact, so I was able to have another go at polishing it up (Re-uploaded image).

Probably the most imperious-looking cat I’ve ever encountered, in Oban.

 

For an account of my trip to Oban, Mull, Iona and the especially fascinating Slate Islands:

...Diese Worte drangen aus dem Mund eines weiteren Fotografen (leider immer noch kein Flickr-Account) in einer scheinbar aussichtslosen Zwickmühle. Doch wie ist es dazu gekommen? Rollen wir alles von hinten auf: Donnerstagabend, ich hatte viele Ideen den letzten Sommertag des Jahres 2024 sinnvoll zu verwenden. Es konkretisierte sich auf das Altmühltal - mal wieder. Im Tal mit dem stillsten Fluss Bayerns waren drei 111er Umläufe hintereinander angekündigt. Doch am Frühen nächsten Morgen entschied ich mich doch, recht kurzfristig dagegen. Grund für diese, im Nachhinein dumme Entscheidung waren die 111er. Zwei von ihnen hatte ich schon perfekt, eine andere sprach mich von dem Lackzustand absolut nicht an.

  

Am Vortag ist die neue Bayernbahn 139 314 mit einem Kesselzug in die Fächerstadt. Ich spekulierte auf eine Rückleistung. Also setzte ich mich um 5:30 an meinem Rechner, normalerweise schalte ich ihn um diese Uhrzeit erst aus. Da ich wusste, dass die Rückleistung immer übers Filstal verkehrte, plante ich mir irgendwas zusammen. Zugegeben, um diese respektlose Uhrzeit habe ich nicht viel nachgedacht, so übersah ich einen wichtigen Faktor. Das Filstal war zwischen Göppingen und Geislingen voll gesperrt. Ohne von meinem Schicksal zu wissen, legte ich mich nochmals ins Bett. Nach einer Stunde bitter benötigtem Schlaf schaute ich in die lokale Sichtungsgruppe. Und tatsächlich, mein Poker ist aufgegangen! Schnell Laufweg, Zugnummer und Zeiten rausgefunden, und 'ab dafür'. Oder auch nicht. Erst jetzt bemerkte ich, dass der Zug ja gar nicht übers Filstal rollt. Die Murrbahn war als Ausweich-Strecke gewählt worden. Hier verkehrte der Zug in sehr bescheidenem Licht. Da der Zug nach dem Kopf machen im Stuttgarter Hafen auch mit guten - 25 unterwegs war, stand nur in Fichtenberg das Licht. Schnell dorthin aufgebrochen, der Zug war schließlich nur gute 15min hinter unserem MÄÄX 90. Mitleerweile war auch Fotograf Sven eingetroffen. Gemeinsam zog es uns in den Garten der Neuapostolischen Kirche Fichtenberg. Dort angekommen, fanden wir uns leider im Urwald von Fichtenberg wieder. Also improvisieren, auf Google Maps zeigte sich noch ein anderer weg nah an der Strecke. Hingerannt, nur um zu bemerken, dass hier der Urwald auch schon im sehr fortgeschrittenen Stadium war. Kurze Zeit später Rollte der neue Stern am Himmel von der Bayernbahn an uns vorbei. Ein Fail wie aus dem Bilderbuch.

 

Geknickt ging es für uns wieder zum Bahnhof, wir waren die einzigen zwei Fahrgäste die reisen wollten. Der RE 90 rauschte ohne halt vorbei, die Stimmung war am Tiefpunkt. Andere Fotografen zeigten mir Stolz ihre Bilder von der nur knapp 21km weiter südlich gelegenen Remsbahn, wo zur selben Zeit der CBB Ersatzzug nach Nürnberg eierte. Langsam schlich der MEX Nach Gaildorf ein, wir stiegen ein, im Geilsten Dorf der Welt aber nicht aus, sondern erfreuten uns am Stimmungslockerer Instagram Reels.

  

Dann wurde es auf einmal hektisch. Zwei Züge die ich noch nicht erwähnt hatte, sind im Zulauf. Einmal eine DB Bahnbau 233 genannt „Tiger“ und einmal eine 111 der Smartrail. Wir beide wussten nicht welche Smartrail 111 auf der Leistung war. Deswegen dachten wir beide erst an die 233, da diese merh als selten ist. Wir schreiben ungefähr 12:30, als wir bemerkten, dass auf der Smartrail Leistung 111 017 vorgespannt war. Und damit war die Denkarbeit freigegeben. Sie endete erst gegen 15:20. In meiner ganzen zeit als Fotograf stand ich noch nie vor so einer Schwierigen Entscheidung. „Was können wir machen, können wir ein Auto organisieren, hoffentlich bekommt die 233 noch Plus, wo würdest du die 233 machen, ja aber die 017 hat halt auch was“.

Das alles waren Gedanken, die uns durch den Kopf zischten. Jeden angerufen den ich kannte, der noch mehr Information liefen konnte. Der Traum, beide Züge mit Sonne vor den Sucher zu bekommen schien auf einmal wieder möglich, als ich beide FPLOS im Bahnhofs Gewimmel von Stuttgart verglich. Bauz 34061 15:39 Bietigheim, DGS 77577 17:02 Schorndorf. Demnach ging es nach Asperg zwischen Apfelbäume, um uns das Erste mal auf die Lauer zu legen. Doch, die Stimmung bliebt angespannt. Fast Minütlich telefonierte ich mit Malek-88, der den Zug auf Höhe Helmsheim fotografieren wollte, zu gleichen Zeit checkte Sven jeden möglichen Sichtungskorridor, da der „Russe“ verdächtig im System verschwunden war. Im Gegensatz zum Ostprodukt, baute das Westprodukt immer mehr Verspätung ab. „Oida, das kann doch echt nicht sein, an machen Tagen rollt nichts, und heute rollt alles auf einmal“. Worte von Sven, denen nichts hinzuzufügen ist. Durch all die Argumentationen wer jetzt welchen Zug fotografiert knatterte auf einmal der Rote Flitzer bestehend aus Fünf Schienenbussen in den Rücken. Kurz darauf folgte ein Anruf von Malek, gefolgt von einem Foto auf Whatsapp. Der Zug war Helmsheim durch. Nun waren wir im Besitz von Fotos beider Züge. Ab jetzt begannen wir alles zu analysieren was zu analysieren war, „017 Vordere Schere oben“, „Der Tiger ist frisch gewaschen“… nach weiteren guten 15 Minuten legte sich dann Sven mit den Worten „Es muss auch Opfer geben, ich mach den dreckes Russen“ auf die 233 fest. Nun war ich unter Zugzwang entschied mich dann aber für die 111. Demnach ging es dann für mich recht zügig zum Bahnhof, um Kurs auf die KBS 786 zu nehmen.

  

Dort bin ich dann auch gute 50 Minuten später angekommen, und nach kurzen Recheneinheiten in der S-Bahn kam ich zum Entschluss, dass die gute 017 im Block hinter dem MEX, allerdings vor der S-bahn sein müsste. Dadurch konnte ich ohne hetzte zur Stelle laufen, wo sich schon weitere Fotografen positioniert hatten. Das Wetter war prächtig, beste Voraussetzungen. Und so schoss man, um kurz vor 17:00 Uhr das erste brauchbare Bild des Tages, obwohl man schon seit 7.30 auf den Beinen war. Die Zufriedenheit bei allen anwesenden Fotografen war sichtlich erkennbar, vor allem wegen der ZZA.

  

Nach der Durchfahrt ging es wieder rasch zum Bahnsteig, denn es gab doch noch eine Möglichkeit den Tiger zu Fotografieren. In die Nächste S2 (+15) gesprungen und durch die Röhre bis Rohr. In Rohr traf man auch wieder Sven an, der mir erst einmal eine Packung Brownies übergab, ehe die Neugier nach den Fotos alles andere in den Schatten stelle.

 

Rohr – mein Heimatbahnhof – Hier eine Ludmilla? Surreal. Die Abfahrtmeldung aus Böblingen war Erleichterung und Unheil zugleich, von zweiteres wussten wir zu dem Zeitpunkt nur nichts. „Üst Berghau durch“ Fünf Minuten später. Doch, es kommt wie es kommen musste. Da Rohr einen Mittelbahnsteig besitzt, werden die Züge auf der Fernbahn von anhaltenden S-Bahnen verdeckt. 430 257 als Führendes Tfz bremste punktgenau auf die H-Tafel. Dahinter dieselte der Großdiesel dem Ziel Vaihingen entgegen. So wurde der Tag der mit einem Fail startete, mit einem Fail abgerundet.

The main biblical accounts of Hezekiah's reign are found in 2 Kings, Isaiah, and 2 Chronicles. Proverbs 25:1 commences a collection of Solomon's proverbs which were "copied by the officials of King Hezekiah of Judah". His reign is also referred to in the books of the prophets Jeremiah, Hosea, Micah, and Isaiah. The books of Hosea and Micah record that their prophecies were made during Hezekiah's reign. The book of Isaiah records when Hezekiah sought Isaiah's help when Judah was under siege by Sennacherib of the Neo-Assyrian Empire.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hezekiah

 

Основні біблійні розповіді про правління Єзекії містяться в 2 Царів, Ісаї та 2 Хронік. Приповісті 25:1 розпочинають збірку приповістей Соломона, які були «переписані чиновниками Єзекії, царя Юди». Його правління також згадується в книгах пророків Єремії, Осії, Михея та Ісаї. У книгах Осії та Михея сказано, що їхні пророцтва були зроблені під час правління Єзекії. У книзі Ісаї описано, як Єзекія звернувся за допомогою до Ісаї, коли Юдея була в облозі Сеннахеріба з Новоассирійської імперії.

Ashala's account

- Asha's first account

It's Guardian Angels day today 02/10/22 so I thought it would be an opportunity to use one of Asha's last photoshoots shot just a few weeks before she passed away. The background is her Ballywhiskin Beach. When I read up on this Guardian Angels Day I was surprised that the Catholic church and other faiths believed in Guardian Angels. I just thought this was something authors created to sell books as I only remember Angels from the bible being more warriors and not what I personally associate angels to be. I have always believed in guardian angels, but I just thought this was my own personal view and not a bibical view. So it was lovely to read that the Church believe in guardian angels. Now I have my own guardian angel who is called Asha.

Surveys have shown that close to 75% of Americans believe in guardian angels. Guardian Angels Day, also known as Guardian Angel Day, is for giving recognition and thanks to the guardian angels in our life, and to do something special to recognize them. It is a day to learn about the role that guardian angels have played in our lives, as well as to learn about the roles they have played in different cultures and religions.

 

Today also is an official day of the Catholic Church, known as Memorial of the Holy Guardian Angels or the Feast of Guardian Angels. This Catholic festival is celebrated on October 2 each year and is a day to thank God for one's guardian angels. Local celebrations of guardian angels date to the eleventh century CE, and the belief that every human had a guardian angel was widespread in the Catholic church by the twelfth century. The feast was first observed in 1500, by the Franciscan Order.

 

In 1608, Pope Paul V officially authorized the feast. It originally was a supplement of sorts to the Feast of Saint Michael. In the 1670s, Pope Clement X made October 2 the official date and made the day an obligatory double feast. Leo XIII made it a double major feast in 1883, and since 1976 it has been ranked as an obligatory memorial.

 

According to Catholic belief, both Christians and non-Christians have a guardian angel assigned to them, that gives them guidance throughout their lives. Guardian angels are from the lowest rank of angels. The angels protect their assigned person from demons and encourage them to do good works. Everyone is reunited with their guardian angel when they reach heaven.

 

According to beliefs throughout the world, guardian angels may protect people, groups, kingdoms, or countries. The concept of guardian angels goes back to ancient Judaism; in the Hebrew Bible, angels sometimes were given missions to intervene in the affairs of humans, and they are mentioned as being guides and intercessors. Psalm 91:11 is often cited as evidence of guardian angels: "For He will command His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways."

 

The New Testament also mentions angels that go between God and man. By the fifth century CE, the belief in guardian angels was prevalent in Christianity. Belief in guardian angels is largely held in the Anglican Communion, and the Eastern Orthodox Church sees guardian angels as friends and protectors. The Catholic Church's beliefs are as described above. Many other Christian denominations, such as Lutherans and Methodists, have some form of belief in guardian angels.

 

In Islam, there is a belief in mu'aqqibat, which has to do with guardian angels. Some Muslims believe everyone has two guardian angels—one in front of them and one in back of them. In Zoroastrianism, each person has a guardian angel which guides them throughout their life. The belief in guardian angels crosses cultures and religions, and today everyone who believes in their power gives them thanks.

Een eerdere keer al kwam de zaterdagse actie van Railtraxx in het Antwerpse havengebied al eens onder onze aandacht, ditmaal kwamen we er eigenlijk op uit nadat een aantal treinen rondom Gent onfortuinlijk niet bleken te rijden.

 

Door het gesloten zijn van de gebruikelijke route treffen we de Athus-shuttle vanuit Krommenhoek eens aan de totaal andere kant van de haven als de Kieldrechtsluis al gepasseerd is maar de Kallosluis nog gepasseerd moet worden. Vervolgens zal de trein, ditmaal getrokken door de 266 031 via Bundel Zuid en de Antigoontunnel koers zetten naar Antwerpen Schijnpoort. Alhier vind een locwissel plaats en zal de trein uiteindelijk getrokken door een duo 186 naar Athus gebracht worden.

 

Op de achtergrond zijn de kranen zichtbaar van de twee meest noemenswaardige containerterminals op de linkeroever, namelijk DP World en de MSC MPET terminal aan het Deurganckdok, tevens de plaats waar deze trein zijn reis begon. Geheel rechts in beeld is een constructie zichtbaar die toebehoort aan Borealis Kallo, een bedrijf wat zover ik het kan beoordelen geen rol speelt in het spoorgoederenvervoer.

Hotel Tinamú, Caldas, Colombia

 

A uniquely-patterned, medium-sized hummingbird, the adult male White-necked Jacobin has a blue head and chest, a sharply contrasting white nape, a green back and blackish wings.

 

The White-necked Jacobin can be found in a variety of habitats from humid forest canopies, to tall second growth forests, and even in coffee and cacao plantations. White-necked Jacobin can be found within its broad range feeding on nectar and small arthropods; occasionally, many will concentrate at flowering trees where they are aggressive and even territorial to one another.

Second levitation photo!

I felt like this was so much lighter in photoshop. Oh well.

 

Brianna was such a trooper, and I can't thank her enough for being such an amazing model.

We trucked out a really tall, HEAVY table, and had to move it 4 times. And it was freezing cold, but she stuck it out for me. <3 And it only took about 1.5 hours of editing!

 

I want a pro account so bad.

DISCLAIMER:

 

Because of a few current Second Life limitations in the Rendering department, you WILL see some horizontal seams on the Experimental versions due to the material splitting so they'd work with the Alpha HUD. That is why I made 2 versions for each arm. One with and one without alpha divisions.

 

This issue will be fixed once PBR comes out and the new rendering system is introduced.

 

The Slim version is made for both those who think the original size is too large and to better fit clothes.

THE GRUMMAN MARTLET SINGLE-SEAT FIGHTER

The Martlet is another of those tubby little American fighters which look like flying barrels. In general appearance, it is not unlike the Buffalo, though its square-cut wing-tips and more tapered fuselage should prevent confusion between the two types.

Like the Buffalo, the Martlet is in service with the Fleet Air Arm. Very little has been said yet about the Martlet's work, but it is safe to say that some of our newer aircraft carriers have Martlets aboard.

This aircraft should give a very good account of itself over the sea because it has the three things essential to an F.A.A. fighter: speed, manoeuvrability, and range. Its maximum range is 1,150 miles, which would enable it to be used as a fast scouting plane as well as for immediate protection of the Fleet or of convoys.

An unusual feature in the Martlet is the provision of two small windows under the pilot's feet, to enable him to have more than the normal look-out below.

It is known that the Martlet has already had encounters with

the Luftwaffe and has acquitted itself very well.

The Grumman Wildcat and the Grumman Martlet are essentially the same aircraft - the Martlet being the RAF variant. This IWM variant started life in the USA in 1945 before moving to IWM in 1993

My freckles look like spots. That's kinda gross. & I no longer have a pro account & it's weird because I haven't had to look at ads on flickr for aaages (one whole year, actually), & now there's a limit to only 200 photos on my stream, & only 100MB of photos per month. Oh & I can't see what weird stats I've been getting (I always get weird ones). It's very strange.

 

I couldn't decide whether to upload or not. But I don't want to fall behind on my diary. I spent like the whole day with Hannah, & we didn't take a single picture - actually, I took a few of my Mom when she was on stage - but otherwise it was a picture free day. & it was a nice day too. =)

 

This is when Max & I when we were on the terraces yesterday.

I'm actually really tired & it's only 2.20am, but I will write this entry tomorrow. Before my Mom went to sleep I thanked her for the lovely day, & told her how much I enjoyed it.

Soooo, it's really irritating when you're waking up & you can hear your Mom coming closer & closer to your room, talking on the phone to someone who is obviously your friend, & is telling them that you have been lying around in bed & should be awake by now. I said I would get up at 10am. I check the clock. It's 9.40am. So I'm not even late. But my Mom is still spouting this bull. She comes in & gives me the phone. It's Hannah, I start talking to her as my Mom exits the room. Except she doesn't. She stands at the door and says very, very loudly "GET UP! GET UP! GET UP!" I only just managed to refrain from telling her to fuck right off, & instead stopped half-way through talking to Hannah & yelled "MOM!" She left then. I was just really irritated because I'd said when I was getting up, & I wasn't late, I was actually awake before that, & yes okay, Hannah called me & if I hadn't been awake it would have been necessary for her to wake me, but I was already awake so there was no need to stand at my door being annoying.

 

But anyway. Hannah said she'd come by for 11.45pm, & we discussed what we were wearing. I only have one dress I like at the moment (last year I had 4 or 5) so that was pretty much sorted for me. I got dressed at a steady pace & then got some breakfast & read the paper. Well, Jane talked to me a lot too. My Mom had to pop out to try on her outfit for the make over today, but she came back with her friend Maggie in tour. I was eating breakfast at this point, & genuinely thought my Mom was about to ditch her friend with me & make us talk. I pointedly said "I'm eating breakfast" & then my Mom said that no they weren't going to disturb me. So that was okay. Maggie was still in the hall, so my Mom went upstairs quickly to get all her things, & then they chatted in the hall while waiting for my Mom's other guests to arrive. When everyone had arrived my Mom said they were going over there & that I could wait here for Hannah. Hannah then called moments after they left to say she'd was running a bit late & would be there in 5 or 10 mins. She offered to meet me there, but I figured it'd be easier to just meet at my house. I continued to read the paper until she got here, & then we left her car keys at my house & went out. Oh, & she showed me her new tattoo. It's of a snowdrop, & she designed it herself in memory of her grandma. It looks like a henna tattoo. I couldn't get a tattoo - too painful. & I'm just not really a fan of tattoos.

 

Last year I'm pretty sure we walked round the outside, but this year it was pretty windy so we walked through the school. We saw Hazel outside the reception area - well, the inbetween area between reception & the way out to the terraces, & she told us that for the time being we had to walk the whole way round the tent to enter. She also told us she wanted us to make ourselves known to the photographer, so that they had photos of younger people, & the fact that we were OEs was just an added bonus.

 

As we got ourselves a glass of free pink champagne I told Hannah that I was drinking more - but only wine. Actually, just Lambrusco, Buck's Fizz, & white wine spritzers. But still. I'm getting past my complete fear of it (thank you very much, American) though I still thinking getting drunk is ridiculous. We moved into the tent, but there were a lot of women crowding up the entrance, making it hard to squeeze through. I thought about checking our table seating on the board in the entrance but my Mom had mentioned we were right by the stage, so I figured we'd find it or she'd show us. && so we squeezed through the crowds & looked around the stalls - I noticed the Age Concern one (my Mom's somehow involved with them) - & we checked out what everyone was wearing & who was here. We saw the photographer, but didn't say anything. Also, last year there were these 2 women who were basically goth twins. Well, they're super tanned (totally over the top) & have suuuch black hair, (always worn really elaborately), way too much make up, & odd dresses. The dresses would probably look nice if they just toned it down a bit. Anyway, we figured out one of the goth women was the mother of a girl in choir who would be singing today. I really dislike the mother because she is very pushy, & was rude towards me because I got the main solo at the Christmas services, not her daughter. But her daughter does have a lovely voice.

 

While we were looking around we saw the woman I wrote about after this event last year, & Hannah burst out laughing & said she'd been telling someone about it just the other day. It was quite funny, & anyone I've told the story to has agreed with what I was saying. But it's probably best if I don't repeat it. My Mom came over to talk then & said she was worried because they were putting her in skinny white jeans for the make over. I'm sure she'll be fine. Though I usually think of skinny white jeans as a young people thing. Then, my Mom went & introduced us to two of her friends who were running the Age Concern stall, & basically ditched us there. I can't remember the name of one of the women, but the other was Maggie. Her son works in the theatre & TV, & she saw my production last week. So we had a quick talk about the arts, & then she asked me my favourite author. Samuel Richardson was the first person to pop into my head, & I really do love 'Pamela' so I said him. I'm not sure if she actually knew who he was. Kudos if she did. && she said she preferred seeing Arthur Miller plays to Shakespeare. I couldn't entirely agree. I see them as 2 different types of theatre, which yes you can compare, but you could also argue that they're very different. So, um, yeah. I let her move onto Hannah then, & she quizzed her about art, & then said Hannah & I would probably be friends for life. I've never really labelled my friendship with Hannah, so I felt a teeny bit awkward then. We were looking for a way to escape this dwindling conversation, when Maggie said we mustn't let her keep us, so we were just about to say goodbye when she continued talking. Uggh. I hate it when I get caught in conversations, & totally can't get out of them. We started talking about how our feet were hurting, & were going to sit down, when Maggie said her feet were hurting too . . . & the conversation continued. Eventually Hannah just said her feet were really hurting & that she just had to sit down, so we said our goodbyes. I felt rude, but some people I just don't gel with. Maggie seemed nice, but I don't really like to talk about the things I'm interested in. Which sounds silly, but I have my passions, & I usually have friends who are not interested in there areas, or if they are, it's just a minor thing, & there are things they're more interested in. So when someone else comes along & tries to talk to me about these things I'm like "Woah, back off." I don't mean anything by it. I just rarely feel comfortable talking about it. I know. I'm weird.

 

We saw my Mom then, & she showed us to our table, which really was right by the stage. There were a few of my Mom's friends sitting there already, but I could only remember one of their names. Awkward. They all said hi to me, so I didn't have to remember their names in the end. The woman next to Hannah was quite old, & as we were talking she caught my eye. I felt it would be rude not to say hi, so we both did. And then the woman basically told us her life story. I really had no idea how to react when she told us her husband left us with her 2 year old son for another woman, & then died about three years later after suffering from Parkinsons. Obviously her son has all grown up now (this story came up when she started telling us her son used to go here) so these events happened a while ago, but I still didn't know what to say. The school's music scholars were singing & playing & the sound was blasting from the speakers, which also made it really hard to hear. After we finished our conversation with this woman Hannah said she hadn't known how to react to her story either. So then we just chatted. My Mom got some wine for her table, so I had some. It wasn't to my liking, but I drank it anyway. Must keep up appearances of normality.

 

Lunch was served, & Maggie was really nice & said because I didn't eat chicken I could have her slice of the asparagus quiche, but I really didn't need it. She was really be nice & insisting I have it, but I was fine. I had another brief conversation with her while Hannah was caught talking to the woman next to her. She asked me if I liked contemporary music. I said yes. I didn't know how to elaborate. I told her I didn't like screamo and country & western. I probably should have asked her what music she liked, but I just found talking to her so awkward. I don't know why. She said her son always told her to tell people who wanted to go into his industry that it was very hard, & that he'd been struggling. She was trying to be kind, but I figured that I was 19, & have been focusing on this for over 10 years, so of course I knew the industry was hard. But I'm being overly critical here. She was probably just looking for common ground. I felt even more awkward when my Mom asked Maggie if she'd told me about her son. She had. We still had very little to talk about.

 

Hannah & I were originally going to get Eton Mess for pudding, but my Mom chose this vanilla turrine & it looked so good that we went for it too. I thought it would taste better than it did, but the raspberry sauce was lovely. && then the speaker for this year started. She ran 'Save Our Souls', which teaches women how to dress better, & for their shape & colour palette. My Mom is on the Parent's Society, so had been asked to be one of the models, along with another woman. The other woman went first, & was told she was an autumn palette (warm colours). When the palettes were both held against her skin the warm ones obviously looked better. Then my Mom was up on stage. It was harder to tell with her, but I would say the cool palette (spring) was a little more striking against her. I don't think my Mom was pleased, as she wears very warm colours, but she's lucky because they all look good on her really. Maggie said she thought the warm looked best, & I said I thought they both looked good, but the cool possibly just won for me. Then she went back stage to get her new outfit, while the woman talked to us about the clothes best for us. I didn't necessarily agree when she talked about how to dress with big boobs. As someone who probably has some of the biggest natural boobs in the country I had to totally disagree. She said wear long necklaces - they just hang off my boobs like a shelf. She said to wear very deep v-necks - whenever I do people just look at my boobs even more & say I'm trying to raw attention to them. There were a few other things she said which I had to say from experience were totally wrong. Hannah agreed. Then they were ready to show us the clothes. The woman who went before my Mom came out in a green maxi dress, (which was quite nice), a coral pashmina, & a big brown belt just under her chest. Oh, & a long necklace. The dress was nice, but the belt & necklace pushed everything weirdly, & made it quite unflattering. Then my Mom came out. Her legs looked soooo skinny (well, she does have very skinny legs), but she was wearing this polka dot mac which bulked her out & hid her shape. Apparently they'd lost the blazer they'd picked out for her. She looked better without the mac, & had a purple sleeveless top with a blue cardi on. Then the woman fastened the cardi, which was unflattering. But the jeans looked good. & they also found the blazer, which looked nice with the rest of the outfit. I took some photos on her camera for her - shocked at the quality, I must say I've been quite spoiled by my cameras. One of my Mom's friends commented that she'd never realised just how skinny my Mom was. That was nice - I've got to remember to tell her that.

 

When my Mom came to sit down Maggie told her that she thought both colours looked good on her, & I said I liked everything but the mac & the blue cardi. Hannah said she liked everything, & my Mom said that a far as she was concerned what I'd said was high praise coming from me. =p

 

The woman finished her talk, & my Mom got some beautiful flowers as a thank you for taking part. They really were lovely. Hannah & I just stayed at the table & chatted, until she said she had to put some more cream on her tattoo. We exited the tent from the far side just as the raffle started, & Hannah took off her heels to walk across the grass. The queue in the bathroom was quite long, but she only needed to wash her hands. We headed back but were a little too nervous to walk through the tent while everyone was focusing on the raffle. We passed the musicians still sitting at a table by the entrance, & when we got back to the table Hannah asked me why they were still here. I replied that they probably had nothing better to do with their time. Mary McCarthy, who was helping out with the raffle right in front of her table, laughed & said she'd heard what I said (thinking I'd meant it about the people running the raffle). I felt mortified, & said I hadn't been talking about her, but I'm not sure if she believed me. She said she didn't mind though. Mary really is very sweet, & I wouldn't say that about her even if I did think the raffle people had nothing better to do with their time. Which isn't true anyway.

 

After the raffle everyone started dispersing, & Maggie got up to go. I tried to catch her eye to say goodbye, but she didn't look at me. I'm not sure if she was purposefully ignoring me, or just thought I wasn't worth the bother. I felt a twinge of guilt then, but I really hadn't know what to say to her. After she left my Mom asked me how she was, & I admitted that I hadn't really had much to say. My Mom reprimanded me then & said she was grieving for her husband, which made me feel awful, until I asked when it had happened. She said it happened seventeen years ago, which made me feel less bad. My Mom said it shouldn't make any difference that it had happened seventeen years ago, but it does, even if just a little bit. If it had just happened very recently then I would have admired her for being able to come out to an event like this, because I certainly wouldn't be able to. But after seventeen years I probably would have been able to leave the house. So that's the difference.

 

Hannah & I flipped through the magazine that we'd been given for free (last year we got free hair care) & I pointed out the shots I wanted to do. She said she could do those poses, & we just needed to find the locations & then voila. My Mom came back & said the jeans were only £8, so she'd probably get them, & maybe the tops too. She also very kindly gave us money for afternoon tea - I'm sure it was free last time. Hannah got a piece of chocolate cake, while I went for a piece of Victoria Sponge cake, & we both had tea. Jean was serving, so I said hey. Oh & Hannah called her mum to ask if she had the money to pay for the ticket, but Elaine was at the LS swimming gala, so my Mom said she'd write a check for her now & Hannah would pay her back at the party tonight. I thought that was very nice of her.

 

We headed back to our table, & I remembered to reply to a text I'd gotten from Vicky about the cast meal. Boffey had a tennis match, so she was asking if we were still having the meal. I said it was up to them. Hazel came over & asked if Hannah's tattoo was real or henna. Hannah think that Hazel's estimation of her has gone down now. After finishing our afternoon tea we headed outside the tent. The weather had been so up and down - cool, windy, hot, humid. We were hot now, & right above the tent there were blue skies & white clouds, but above the benches we were going to sit down on there were grey clouds that looked like they might burst at any moment. Before we got to the benches 2 boys went & sat there, so we just sat on the little steps & took our heels off & talked some more. Alex approached to ask me if we were having the cast dinner & I said it was up to them, so she said we were having it. We then saw Dave AR walking over to talk to the boys on the benches. He's back from UCLA to go to the ball with his girlfriend. He didn't acknowledge us at first, but at one point we both looked up at the same time, so he had to wave & smile (it was more of a grimace). I waved back & told Hannah, so she looked up & waved too. He returned the wave & showed teeth when he smiled. Hannah said he was being weird, & that even though we weren't close, he should still have come over to at least say hey. He left, & it started to spit a little bit, so we headed over to my house.

 

She wanted to see my new laptop & camera, so I showed them & we went through facebook profiles of people we knew. I think she was a bit pissed off with the girls we used to hang out with at school, so we were looking at what they'd been doing recently. Hugh came in & got cereal & I just thought it was nice how he got on with Hannah. Her mum called & asked Hannah to pick her up for the Leaving Drinks at my house (for the teachers leaving at the end of this year) so I told my Mom we'd be back in 10mins & that I had my phone with me. Hannah had All Time Low's CD playing, & I'm not sure what I think of it. It's the type of music I used to listen to all the time, but over the last year or so - probably more - it's become a bit samey to me. I do like their single 'Lost in Stereo' though.

 

Hannah changed out of her heels at her house & showed me the photos on her camera from her night out last night. Her mum finished getting ready - after being a bit annoyed at Hannah for the mess she'd left her room in - & we got back to my house. (Max called me on the way home to apologise for not seeing me today. He said he'd been in school for the last four hours, but he'd just been so busy. I thought it was nice of him to actually call & apologise, but it wasn't as if I'd been waiting around for him today. He said he might see me tomorrow, but he probably won't.) But anyway, Hannah & I went out into the garden when we got back, where my Dad told us that actually my Mom was wrong to invite us to this party, as it was a Common Room party, & that we should leave. First I showed Hannah our new patio area, & then we went & got food from Jean. We tried this tomato sticks & cranberry with cheese puffs. They were particularly nice.

 

We headed in then & wondered what the hell to do. Usually we take photos, or watch movies, or bake. We couldn't exactly bake now. So it was either movies or photos. We headed up to my room (stopping on the way to show Hannah my brother's drawing, before he rushed in & grabbed them & said they weren't good enough to be seen, although Hannah assured him that wasn't true) & lay on my bed for a bit before deciding to go & look at photos taken over the years on my laptop. We decided we'd have to put up some of the really bad ones of people we knew. After we'd finished Hannah wanted to look through the photos on my flickr & decide which ones to sell, so we started doing that until her mum said it was time to go after an hour and a half. I then read until the party finished about an hour later. There were no cranberry puffs left. Great sadness.

 

I read some more until my parents called me up to watch TV with them all. I had 3 lemon sherbets left from a packet we got back at Christmas, so I gave one to my brother & my Dad. My Mom said she couldn't have them because of her teeth, so I had the last one. My Mom started to fall asleep, & after BB was finished my Dad told Hugh & I to go to bed. My Mom was still partially awake, so I told her how lovely this day had been. I enjoyed my evening, & the routine of spending time with my family. I felt a bit sad that my Dad basically tentatively asked me if I wanted to watch it with them. I don't mean to be stroppy about watching it. Just it's annoying to watch it so late usually, & usually when I won't watch it I've just had a fight with my Mom, so am upset. But really I like spending time with them all. =)

  

6 year old Thoroughbred broodmare. Take a look at her pedigree and you'll see that her female line traces back to the most influential broodmare of the 20th century, La Troienne:

From Wikipedia...

 

"She produced fourteen foals and 12 of them raced. 10 of those 12 were winners. The first of these was the Champion Black Helen, by Black Toney, born in 1932. Black Helen won the American Derby, the Florida Derby, the Maryland Handicap, and the Coaching Club American Oaks. The second was born in 1934, Biologist, by Bubbling Over who won the 1926 Kentucky Derby. The third was Baby League, born in 1935, again by Bubbling Over, who became the dam of four stakes winners: the great Hall of Fame filly Busher, as well as Mr. Busher, Striking, and Harmonizing. Her fourth winning foal was Big Hurry, another Black Toney filly, born in 1936, and the dam of five stakes winners: Be Fearless, Bridal Flower, The Admiral, Great Captain, and Searching. La Troienne also brought forth the great Hall of Fame colt Bimelech, born in 1937. By Black Toney, Bimlech won the Belmont Stakes, the Preakness Stakes, and placed in the 1940 Kentucky Derby. Big Event came next in 1938, a Blue Larkspur filly and dam of stakes winner Hall of Fame. In 1939, she dropped Businesslike who was the dam of two stakes winners: Busanda (who was the dam of Buckpasser) and Auditing. Then came Besieged by Balladier in 1940, Broke Even in 1941, a colt by Blue Larkspur, Back Yard in 1942, a gelding by Balladier, and in 1944 Bee Ann Mac by Blue Larkspur. Belle Histoire came along in 1945, once more by Blue Larkspur. Belle Histoire was the dam of stakes winner Royal Record. La Troienne's last two foals were Belle of Troy in 1947, again by Blue Larkspur, and the gelding Trojan War in 1948 by Shut Out.

 

Les Brinsfield, a pedigree expert, wrote: "Anyone who wants can take any daughter of La Troienne (or all of them) and trace them through pedigrees to today's stars. It will be a rare week when there is no stakes winner linebred to La Troienne.""

I had a test in my accounting class tonight. I always stress over little things. I'm pretty sure I made close to 100%....being an accountant for the last 12 years didn't hurt...

 

Even still, I stress just the same.

 

I found this awesome store somewhere in Texas. I made notes because I had no idea where the hell I was....an atlas can only get you so far (totally need a dum dum).

 

Apparently this is off of HWY 105 E, right outside of Washington County past Yeuga Creek.

Waar je op de Brabantroute eigenlijk omgeleide treinen verwacht die gewoonlijk het A15 tracé en de grensovergang bij Emmerich benutten was er dankzij werkzaamheden in het zuiden van Limburg ook een totaal andere omleider te zien tijdens een dagje langs de baan in de hoop op leuke goederentreintjes. In dit geval ging het om een steevast rijdende staaltrein vanuit Beverwijk met bestemming Kinkempois die gewoonlijk niet eens in de buurt van Rotterdam, laat staan Dordrecht komt.

 

Het is aan de 193 312 (voorzien van de milieubewuste stickers 'Das ist Grün') om deze staaltrein van tractie te voorzien tussen Beverwijk en Roosendaal. Hierbij werd dwars door de randstad gereden en daarbij dus ook de fotografen gepasseerd onder rugnummer 47683 ter hoogte van Willemsdorp, slechts een goede minuut voordat de trein Brabant zal bereiken. Vanaf Roosendaal zou het geheel verder gaan aangevoerd door maarliefst drie Vlaamse reizen.

 

Op het moment van het maken van deze foto zou de toelating voor Vectron locomotieven in België ongeveer drie weken in orde bevonden zijn ware het niet dat er toch nog wat meer tijd overheen gaat voordat deze machines daadwerkelijk in het Belgische zullen rijden. Waar wij er al enige jaren aan gewend zijn zal een nieuw toegelaten locomotieftype vele Belgische treinliefhebbers positief stemmen. Na vele jaren waarin de Traxx ruimschoots overheerst mogen onze zuiderburen ook hoop gaan vestigen op meer variatie en vele fotografische doelen.
