The pride is still separated.
Misty seems to be remaining in heat longer than expected due to having an implant inserted. It;s been a month now since Kiros was ousted from the pride and the atmosphere is not as bad as it was but there is still and underlying tension between the boys.

The Lizard is a peninsula in southern Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. The most southerly point of the British mainland is near Lizard Point at grid reference SW 701,115. The Lizard village, is the most southerly on the British mainland, and is in the civil parish of Landewednack; the most southerly parish. The valleys of the River Helford and Loe Pool form the northern boundary, with the rest of the peninsula surrounded by sea. The area measures approximately 14 miles x 14 miles. The Lizard is one of England's natural regions and has been designated as national character area 157 by Natural England. The peninsula is known for its geology and for its rare plants and lies within the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). Almost a third of Cornwall has AONB designation, with the same status and protection as a National Park. The name "Lizard" is most probably a corruption of the Cornish name "Lys Ardh", meaning "high court"; it is purely coincidental that much of the peninsula is composed of a rock called serpentinite. The Lizard peninsula's original name may have been the Celtic name "Predannack" ("British one"); during the Iron Age (Pytheas c. 325 BC) and Roman period, Britain was known as Pretannike (in Greek) and as Albion (and Britons the "Pretani"). The Lizard's coast is particularly hazardous to shipping and the seaways round the peninsula were historically known as the "Graveyard of Ships" (see below). The Lizard Lighthouse was built at Lizard Point in 1752 and the RNLI operates The Lizard lifeboat station. There is evidence of early habitation with several burial mounds and stones. Part of the peninsula is known as the Meneage (land of the monks). Helston, the nearest town to the Lizard peninsula, is said to have once headed the estuary of the River Cober, before it was cut off from the sea by Loe Bar in the 13th century. It is a matter of debate as to whether Helston was once a port, albeit no actual records still exist. Geomorphologists believe the bar was most likely formed by rising sea levels, after the last ice age, blocking the river and creating a barrier beach. The beach is formed mostly of flint and the nearest source is found offshore under the drowned terraces of the former river that flowed between England and France, and now under the English Channel. The medieval port of Helston was at Gweek from 1260 onwards, on the Helford river which exported tin and copper. Helston was believed to be in existence in the sixth century, around the 'Dowr Kohar'. The name comes from the Cornish "hen lis" or "old court" and "ton" added later to denote a Saxon manor; the Domesday Book refers to it as Henliston (which survives as the name of a road in the town). It was granted its charter by King John in 1201. It was here that tin ingots were weighed to determine the duty due to the Duke of Cornwall when a number of stannary towns were authorised by royal decree. The royal manor of Winnianton, which was held by King William I at the time of the Domesday Book (1086), was also the head manor of the hundred of Kerrier and the largest estate in Cornwall. It was assessed as having fifteen hides before 1066. At the time of Domesday there was land for sixty ploughs, but in the lord's land there were two ploughs and in the lands held by villeins twenty-four ploughs. There were twenty-four villeins, forty-one freedmen, thirty-three smallholders and fourteen slaves. There was 6 acres, eight square leagues of pasture and half a square league of woodland. The livestock was fourteen unbroken mares, three cattle and one hundred and twenty-eight sheep (in total 145 beasts); its value was £12 annually. 11 of the hides were held by the Count of Mortain and there is more arable and pasture and 13 more persons are recordedRinsey, Trelowarren, Mawgan-in-Meneage and seventeen other lands are also recorded under Winnianton. Mullion has the 15th century church of St Mellanus, and the Old Inn from the 16th century. The harbour was completed in 1895 and financed by Lord Robartes of Lanhydrock as a recompense to the fishermen for several disastrous pilchard seasons. The small church of St Peter in Coverack, built in 1885 for £500, has a serpentinite pulpit. The Great Western Railway operated a road motor service to The Lizard from Helston railway station. Commencing on 17 August 1903, it was the first successful British railway-run bus service and was initially provided as a cheaper alternative to a proposed light railway. In 1999, the Solar eclipse of 11 August 1999 departed the UK mainland from the Lizard.

Whenever I think of Winter I think of staying warm. What can make you feel warmer than a nice bowl of tasty Vegetable Soup.
This little structure at the back of the garden of Palazzo Lezze is a former "casino". It was renovated inside a few years ago with an ultra modern interior in which a mezzanine floor was inserted. All the renovations were done without touching the original walls of the structure. The facade got a new layer of stucco; but it only lasted a season before it peeled off the lower section where water seeped up through the bricks. ..... ..... ..... architizer.com/projects/casin-di-palazzo-lezze/

I = Insert.
An Insert, as the name suggests, is inserted into a pre-drilled hole in wood. It allows a bolt to be screwed into it. As the bolt screws in the sides of the Insert expand and grip the wood. Very useful for table legs and anything you might want to take apart and store or repair.
Inserts can be made from electroplated brass (as these are), solid brass, stainless steel, steel, aluminium, copper, plastic, nylon etc.

Please do not insert images, or group invites; thank you!
Lower Slaughter is a village in the English county of Gloucestershire, located in the Cotswold district, 4 miles (6.4 km) south west of the town of Stow-on-the-Wold. The village is built on both banks of the River Eye, which also flows through Upper Slaughter. At the west end of the village there is a 19th-century water mill with an undershot waterwheel and a chimney for additional steam power. There is a ford where the river widens in the village and several small stone footbridges join the two sides of the community. While the mill is built of red brick most of the 16th and 17th century homes in the village use Cotswold sandstone and are adorned with mullioned windows and often with other embellishments such as projecting gables. Records exist showing that Lower Slaughter has been inhabited for over 1000 years. The Domesday Book entry has the village name as “Sclostre”. It further notes that in 1066 and 1086 that the manor was in the sheriff's hands. Lower Slaughter Manor, a Grade-II listed 17th-century house, was granted to Sir George Whitmore in 1611 and remained in his family until 1964. The 13th century Anglican parish church is dedicated to St. Mary the Virgin. Much of the current structure was built in 1866; however, the spire and peal of six bells was recently restored. In May 2013 it was reported in the national news that the Parish Council were fiercely opposed to the presence of an icebox tricycle selling ice creams for seven days a week, six months of the year, citing that the trading times were excessive, increased footfall would prevent the grass from growing and that children could climb on the trike and fall into the nearby river.
Upper Slaughter is a village in the English county of Gloucestershire located in the Cotswold district located 4 miles (6.4 km) south west of the town of Stow-on-the-Wold. Nearby places include Lower Slaughter, Bourton-on-the-Water and Daylesford. The village is built on both banks of the River Eye. The Anglican parish church is dedicated to St. Peter. Upper Slaughter was identified by author Arthur Mee as one of 32 Thankful Villages, although more recent work suggests a total of 52. This term referred to the small number of villages in England and Wales which had lost no men in World War I, and was popularised by Mee in the 1930s. In Enchanted Land (1936), the introductory volume to "The King's England" series of guides, he wrote "that a Thankful Village was one which had lost no men in the Great War because all those who left to serve came home again." Although the village was subject to an air raid, it also lost no men in World War II, an honour held by only 14 villages, collectively known as the Doubly Thankful Villages. The parliamentary constituency is represented by Geoffrey Clifton-Brown MP. The name of the village derives form the Old English term "slough" meaning "wet land". The manor of Upper Slaughter is recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086; the Slaughter family acquired it in the late 12th century. The current building, on the site of an ancient building, was constructed over many years, starting in the Tudor era. Its crypt is estimated to be from the 14th century. The largest business in the village is the Lords of the Manor Hotel. The building dates from 1649 and has been a hotel since 1960s. The owners continue to furnish the house with portraits and antiques belonging to the former owner. Other hotels serving the two Slaughter villages include The Slaughters Country Inn and Lower Slaughter Manor. In 1906, the cottages around the square were reconstructed by architect Sir Edward Lutyens.

Well when I left Hagersville this afternoon it was sunny...by the time I got to Nanticoke it was whiteout conditions and roads were shit!
But since I was there, I decided to wait out SOR. Here we see the fresh RLHH 2081 pulling a cut of cars to take to the Imperial Oil facility.
I had a tough time shooting today. But I wanted to post a landscape shot from our trip. This is the best I got.
Gyp (and K-man), would like to introduce thier newest extended family members. On the left of thier cousin "Tango" (she is a rescue from Cuba) and on the far right is "Roo" (A 4 month old Austratlian Kelpie). We spend so much time with them (and thier human families) - they become like our own. Tango and her family spent the weekend witih us, and we see Roo almost everyday for playdates, and visits.
You will be seeing more of them in the coming months I am sure.
Skyscraper (with impossible clouds)
Composite Artwork

I took the two photos which make up the vertical panorama, created in Photoshop Elements, on 09-02-2016 during my last long "Photo Expedition" to downtown Los Angeles. The skyscraper is the Wilshire Grand, the tallest building in L.A. and on the West Coast. They hadn't added the spire yet, and I believe the crane along the side of the building has been removed.
I'd forgotten I'd taken the photos for a panorama and stitched them together this morning.
The sky was just "blue" so I masked the sky out of the image, and now I can insert any cloudscape I wish. I didn't go so far as to figure out a way of reflecting any cloudscape I add into the glass windows of the skyscraper, but I'm sure there's a way, with the distortion tool and eraser probably. However, it's a workday, and I'm off as usual.
The clouds I added are storm clouds shot over Signal Hill about a month ago. It's actually one of my more popular images, and I flipped it, used layer masks to blend the clouds together, and then used the soft contrast tool and some clone brush magic to make the dark underside (now in the middle) disappear.
Final touch, adding my signature along the fence at the bottom of the image, using the distortion tool to align it to the fence.
Sometimes it is more important to not say things than it is to say them ... you are welcome to try your hand at giving this photograph a title. Consider it a challenge. :)

There comes a time in every boy's life where he takes the step from childhood into being a man, before the process is quickly reversed by the realisation that his high score has been beaten. And so completing the circle.
With the exception of the Lego elements, this entire image has been created from scratch. Took ages too.
Hey, just imagine if you could get a print of this guy!
