That Cat returned tonight to chase down Teddy Roosevelt in the presidents race at Nationals Park.
Not sure who this panther is, but this is the second time this season he has appeared to take down Teddy just short of the finish line.

Padstow is a town, civil parish and fishing port on the north coast of Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. The town is situated on the west bank of the River Camel estuary approximately 5 miles (8.0 km) northwest of Wadebridge, 10 miles (16 km) northwest of Bodmin and 10 miles (16 km)
northeast of Newquay.
Padstow was originally named Petroc-stow, Petroc-stowe, or 'Petrock's Place', after the Welsh missionary Saint Petroc, who landed at Trebetherick around AD 500. After his death a monastery (Lanwethinoc, the church of Wethinoc an earlier holy man) was established here which was of great importance until "Petroces stow" (probably Padstow) was raided by the Vikings in 981,
according to the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle. Whether as a result of this attack or later, the monks moved inland to Bodmin, taking with them the relics of St Petroc. The cult of St Petroc was important both in Padstow and Bodmin.
Padstow is recorded in the Domesday Book (1086) when it was held by Bodmin Monastery.
This is a picture of the immediate aftermath of a Baboon attack on two young women sitting in the back of their car whilst their male friend was out on the road photographing the Baboon Troup which was waiting along the road for unsuspecting naiive tourists like the above.
Baboons are smart and when the male driver got out of his car and walked across the road to take a better shot, one of them, obviously knowing the routine, darted across to the car and simply opened the rear door as if he does it every day.
He then jumped in the back seat on top of the two girls and ripped a handbag off the shoulder of the girl in the picture, along with the sleeve off her shirt. (lucky he did not take her arm with it)
Can you imagine the hysterical state of the two girls with this huge animal in the back seat climbing all over them and ripping at their clothes to get at one of the bags, presumably in an effort to get food? Note that Baboons are not cuddly Australia Zoo Koala's. These are large, strrong, fast, agile, vicious, aggressive, wild, smart animals that could easily kill a human or inflict a very serious injury. No problems.
Luckily for the girls, that is all it did ie jumped on top of them and then when it had one of the bags it jumped out of the car and went off up the road a little to sit down and go through his little booty, item by item, without a care in the world, as we watched the whole episode unfold.
Our guide finally retrieved her purse by shooing off the Baboon from the safety of our car but the contents were strewn all over the place. It was a frightening scene played out over a few seconds but the driver should never have got out of the car in this situation.
The girl in the picture was in a total state of shock and horror and in a daze and had no idea what she was doing when she got out of the car to thank our guide for retrieving her bag and contents. Our guide was screaming at her to get back in her car in case she was attacked again by the beast but she did not have a clue, due to her state of mind. The other girl did not get out of the car, presumably frozen stiff in shock mode.
The girl in the picture was very fortunate not to have been seriously injured by one or more of the Baboons during or after the attack in the car as they are known to make unprovoked attacks. Like most wild animals in Africa, Baboons are to be feared and best avoided.
This was the end result for the birthday cake that I made. Marianne turned 14 and he really loves her 3 cats and 1 dog (can you spot the poor dog being picked on by the three cats). She has 2 black and white cats and a tortoiseshell one. She loved the cake.
Grandma attacked me again this morning. We have an appointment on Wednesday with her doc so I'll find out what's wrong with her then.

I was very happy to be allocated this special jigsaw in John Hyde's jigsaw collection dispersal sale, almost ten years after I first saw it. I can recall each time John brought it to our meetings, and fond memories of sitting with him doing another jigsaw we both believe to be by the same cutter. The second jigsaw was in moderate condition, and I was very grateful to Bronwen for her offer to mend it for me. It was only fitting that the first time I built Attack on the Coach it was on holiday with Bronwen at a Landmark Trust property.

This fabulous jigsaw seen at the Nov 2015 meeting was brought back to the Nov 2016 BCD meeting. It is one of its owner's favourite jigsaws - which considering his collection is saying a very great deal indeed. It was one of the very best brought along to either meeting, for the verve and invention of the whimsy cut. Whimsies are often arranged in clumps where they form local tessellations.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lionel_Edwards
Lionel Edwards (11 September 1878 – 13 April 1966) was a British artist who specialized in painting horses and other aspects of British country life. He is best known for his hunting scenes but also painted pictures of horse racing, shooting and fishing. He provided illustrations for Country Life, The Sphere, The Graphic and numerous books.
The son of a doctor, Edwards grew up at Benarth, a small estate in Conway, North Wales. His father, from whom he acquired his love of fox hunting, died when he was seven. From an early age, he showed a talent for drawing horses, an artistic trait which may have come from his maternal grandmother, who was a pupil of George Romney. It seemed he was heading for an Army career until it became apparent that his talents did not lie in that direction, so his mother allowed him to study art in London, first with A.S. Cope and later at the Heatherley School of Fine Art and Frank Calderon's School of Animal Painting. He became the youngest member of the London Sketch Club at the age of nineteen. In 1905, he married Ethel Wells and the couple moved out of London to Radley, in Oxfordshire, and later to Worcestershire, before moving back to Benarth. They both were enthusiastic fox hunters: during his life, Edwards hunted with almost every pack in the country.
On the outbreak of the Great War, he volunteered as a Remount Purchasing Officer along with his contemporaries, Cecil Aldin and Sir Alfred Munnings. On being demobilized, he and his family moved to West Tytherley, near Salisbury, where he lived for the rest of his life.
His artistic output was remarkable: he wrote almost 30 books and illustrated many more, including editions of Black Beauty, Lorna Doone and The Black Arrow, in addition to numerous private commissions. He became a member of the Royal Cambrian Academy of Art in 1926 and the Royal Institute in 1927. His favorite medium was watercolours, although he used oils more in his later years. He worked to the end of his life, dying from a stroke at his home on 13 April 1966.

I visited Kirkleatham Hall Museum to have a look at their latest exhibition which is called "Alien Invasion"
It features props from some of the most memorable scifi films in recent years, everything from Thunderbirds to Planet of the Apes, Mars Attacks,Robocop,Star Wars and many more.
If you are a film fan of this genre it is well worth a look being able to get up so close to the props that were actually used in the films.
Im not a film fan but went along to get some photographs of the props.
On arrival you are warned that flash photography is not allowed, which means some high ISO and large aperture settings in some of the darker areas of the exhibition are a must. So be prepared.
A lot of the props are behind glass, mostly in glass cubes and reflection is also a bit of a nuisance but with a bit of experimentation fairly decent results can be obtained with a bit of patience.
For an admittance fee of just £2 per adult it is well worth the visit.
MY Photographs From MY Visit.
the following pictures were taken by me on my visit and have been heavily post processed in Lightroom and Photoshop CC to give them an added dimension and a bit more interest.
I used Lightroom to remove all the backgrounds replacing the "clutter" with a plain black background.
The images were then edited in Photoshop CC and had some or all of the following work done to them
The actual font from the film used on a separate layer to add authenticity
Multiple layers added to create interesting scenarios see the SS Enterprise
Composite images made using multiple layer and images [twin Mars Attacks Image]
Levels adjustments, sharpening etc.
I deliberately wanted to create images that didn't look like they had been photographed in an exhibition environment, I wanted images that looked like excerpts from the films and or Literature advertising the films.
Anyway the true feedback will come from you the viewer and is always a great sense check for me to hear your views so feel free to comment, good bad or indifferent

Massive Attack - October 6, 2006 - The Carlu, Toronto.
Robert Del Naja, aka 3-D. Was one third of Massive Attack, then one half. Then their latest album was sort of his solo project. He's pretty essential to the group, you could say. He also dances funny.

Pearl Harbor.
On Sunday, December 7th, 1941 the Japanese launched a surprise attack against the U.S. Forces stationed at Pearl Harbor , Hawaii. By planning his attack on a Sunday, the Japanese commander Admiral Nagumo, hoped to catch the entire fleet in port. As luck would have it, the Aircraft Carriers and one of the Battleships were not in port. (The USS Enterprise was returning from Wake Island, where it had just delivered some aircraft. (The USS Lexington was ferrying aircraft to Midway, and the USS Saratoga and USS Colorado were undergoing repairs in the United States.)
In spite of the latest intelligence reports about the missing aircraft carriers (his most important targets), Admiral Nagumo decided to continue the attack with his force of six carriers and 423 aircraft. At a range of 230 miles north of Oahu, he launched the first wave of a two-wave attack. Beginning at 0600 hours his first wave consisted of 183 fighters and torpedo bombers which struck at the fleet in Pearl Harbor and the airfields in Hickam, Kaneohe, and Ewa. The second strike, launched at 0715 hours, consisted of 167 aircraft, which again struck at the same targets.
At 0753 hours the first wave consisting of 40 Nakajima B5N2 ”Kate" torpedo bombers, 51 Aichi D3A1 "Val" dive bombers, 50 high altitude bombers and 43 Zeros struck airfields and Pearl Harbor.
Within the next hour, the second wave arrived and continued the attack.

Valvoline sponsors activities all across the world. This one is made in Egypt during a track attack STT (Shawate2 Time Trials).
Track attacks are held on Kart circuits or in parking lots, so not on official big racing circuits, making it more spectacular.
