The Rubjerg Knude lighthouse in Denmark is located 90m above sea level. The ocean meets the tall sand dunes. When the lighthouse was built it was more than 200m inland and there were no large dunes around it. Over time the sea moved in closer and simultaneously the wind blew large amounts of sand up from the cliff. The lighthouse will within the next 10-15 years fall into the sea because of coastal erosion (2m a year) - this, of course I found out after climbing endless flight of see-through stairs to the top and back accompanied by whistling wind (with my heart in my pants!)

The conical peak of Mount Ngauruhoe catching the first light of the day. Two minutes after this awesome moment the clouds rolled in, making this epic mountain disappear from view until the sun had well and truly risen.

Number 3 in my theme this week Doom and Gloom. It speaks for itself. Newhaven Cemetery, Newhaven, East Sussex, UK.
Checking on the tomato plants when I spied this unfortunate fellow.
This is a Tobacco Hornworm. A Braconid Wasp has inserted it's it's eggs inside this unfortunate Hookworm. After feeding for 8-10 days on nutrients provided by the still living Hornworm, they burrow out and make these cocoons. After about a week the adult wasp will emerge. At that point the moth larva will die.
These Milkweed bug nymphs are a bit late in the season to be able to develop into adults this year; there isn't any living milkweed left for them to feed on. I'm guessing that the adult here will be able to overwinter OK, but have less confidence in the young. Who knows, though-- they have already survived a couple of hard freezes, so maybe they are hardier than I give them credit for? Glendale, Missouri
How many years has this old tree stood by the creek? Now the water is undercutting its roots, and it's just a matter of time before it falls.
Proverbs 31:8 āSpeak out for the one who cannot speak, for the rights of those who are doomed.ā
Canadaās euthanasia program is called Medical Assistance In Dying (MAID). They give the āpatientā a paralytic; then they give them a drug, which causes their lungs to fill with liquid. Therefore, the patient drowns to death. If the patient does this āmedical treatmentā by IV, it takes 10-15 minutes for them to drown. If the patient takes the drug orally, it takes between 30 minutes to 24 hours for them to drown.
I first heard of euthanasia when I was in high school. It was touted as a good and compassionate thing. When I heard about it, I immediately thought of the Nazis. I spoke up against it, and I was ridiculed. Indoctrination masked as education: the Naziās liked to use propaganda too. Nihilism breeds useful idiots.

CSX L452 splits the B&O-era intermediates outside of New Elizabethtown, Indiana behind an SD70MAC leader and an enormous train of cement. The uptick in traffic from the cement plant in Mitchell has prompted CSX to replace the aging signals and codeline between Mitchell and Seymour out of concern that the existing codeline will not be able to survive another major storm. In the grand scheme of things, you can expect a system-wide purge of CPL signals as the parts supply to keep these signals going dwindles.
