Broadcast will probably be snuggling on this fluffy winter blanket all day while I bike to work in 11 degrees Farenheit / -11 degrees Celcius. This is not my favorite biking temperature, I have to say.

Broadcast actually shares her birthday with Satomi Matsuzaki of Deerhoof, who also loves cats so I waited until Caturday to celebrate with Broadcast. Don't worry, though, she has gotten lots of treats both today and on her birthday, which was Purrsday!
Broadcast turned 9.

Earlier this week, Broadcast turned 8 years old but, as she was very busy in her second grade class learning about adverbs at the time, we had to wait to celebrate her birthday on Caturday.

Broadcast turned 11 today! I don't know if cats understand that it is their birthday even when we talk to them about it but I do think she understands she's receiving a lot of extra special Caturday treats!
Broadcast is named after one of my favorite bands of all time:

A guy listens intently to latest news broadcast on his transistor radio while relaxing at the porch of his house by the highway at a village in Subic, Zambales, Philippines.
Broadcast is as naughty as she is beautiful so that's fun. She turned 5 years old today.

The almost 370 meter (1214 feet) high Christmas tree in the Gerbrandy Broadcast Tower is a Christmas tree-shaped set of lights that are attached to the large radio transmission tower in IJsselstein, the Netherlands and is, according to the Guinness Book of Records, the largest Christmas tree in the world.

Hoopoe calling from a strangely appropriate perch, a TV aerial. This bird was calling from the roof of the house I was staying in at one point, which was lovely, although I wasn't in a position to photograph it at that time. Luckily it stayed for a few days; maybe if they come back another year I'll catch images of nesting and rearing chicks.
During high-speed travel, especially near the speed of light, everything in the universe would seem to lie in the same place, unseparated and undifferentiated, directly ahead. This bizarre wrinkle comes from the effect of aberration. When we drive through a snowstorm, the flakes seem to come from in front of us, while the rear window hardly gets hit at all. The same thing happens with light. Our planet’s eighteen-miles-per-second motion around the sun causes stars to shift position by several seconds of arc from their actual locations. As we increase our velocity, this effect grows ever more dramatic until at just below lightspeed, the entire contents of the cosmos appear to hover in a single blindingly bright ball, dead ahead.

Happy Caturday from Broadcast. Named after the very special British band whose lead singer, Trish Keenan experienced an untimely death when she was only in her early 40s. Trish wrote to me before she died and told me how much she liked the photos I had taken of her, which really meant a lot to me.

Toronto is the provincial capital of Ontario. With a recorded population of 2,731,571 in 2016, it is the most populous city in Canada and the fourth most populous city in North America. The city is the anchor of the Golden Horseshoe, an urban agglomeration of 9,245,438 people (as of 2016) surrounding the western end of Lake Ontario, while the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) proper had a 2016 population of 6,417,516. Toronto is an international centre of business, finance, arts, and culture, and is recognized as one of the most multicultural and cosmopolitan cities in the world.
People have travelled through and inhabited the Toronto area, located on a broad sloping plateau interspersed with rivers, deep ravines, and urban forest, for more than 10,000 years. After the broadly disputed Toronto Purchase, when the Mississauga surrendered the area to the British Crown, the British established the town of York in 1793 and later designated it as the capital of Upper Canada. During the War of 1812, the town was the site of the Battle of York and suffered heavy damage by American troops. York was renamed and incorporated in 1834 as the city of Toronto. It was designated as the capital of the province of Ontario in 1867 during Canadian Confederation. The city proper has since expanded past its original borders through both annexation and amalgamation to its current area of 630.2 km2 (243.3 sq mi).
The diverse population of Toronto reflects its current and historical role as an important destination for immigrants to Canada. More than 50 percent of residents belong to a visible minority population group, and over 200 distinct ethnic origins are represented among its inhabitants. While the majority of Torontonians speak English as their primary language, over 160 languages are spoken in the city.
Toronto is a prominent centre for music, theatre, motion picture production, and television production, and is home to the headquarters of Canada's major national broadcast networks and media outlets. Its varied cultural institutions, which include numerous museums and galleries, festivals and public events, entertainment districts, national historic sites, and sports activities, attract over 43 million tourists each year. Toronto is known for its many skyscrapers and high-rise buildings, in particular the tallest free-standing structure in the Western Hemisphere, the CN Tower.
The city is home to the Toronto Stock Exchange, the headquarters of Canada's five largest banks, and the headquarters of many large Canadian and multinational corporations. Its economy is highly diversified with strengths in technology, design, financial services, life sciences, education, arts, fashion, aerospace, environmental innovation, food services, and tourism.
