Week 21/52 Theme: Need for Speed MCP Project 52
My son racing in to help a team mate during Saturday's game.
I needed some fried apples for breakfast tomorrow. I put Jersey Shore Fightin’ Texas Aggie Ring on it and told him, “make it happen.”
The big quandary for Aggie Ring was, “Bacon fat or butter?”
When Aggie Ring and I were stationed down in Georgia, they often used bacon fat or just plain lard in pretty much anything. If you went to a breakfast cafe in Georgia (Just an old sweet song, keeps Georgia on my mind) and had fried apples, they usually fried them in pork fat.
Aggie Ring decided to go with the butter option.
It might not look like it in the photos, but there were 8 Honeycrisp Apples used. It took quite a while to “fry” most of the water out of them in the delicious, heart healthy butter. During the last five minutes or so, Aggie Ring added a sensible portion of brown sugar (How come you taste so good? Just like a young girl should. — Rolling Stones).
Whilst he was making my my required fried apples, Aggie Ring quietly hummed, “Don’t sit under the apple tree with anyone else but me.”
Once the brown sugar had caramelized and thickened, Aggie Ring added some lemon juice (Lemon tree very pretty, and the lemon flower is sweet). Upon turning on the heat Aggie Ring went C-R-A-Z-Y! Normally, one would add some cinnamon (let me in) and some nutmeg after the fire is put out to prevent it from burning. However Aggie Ring is a rebel and used pumpkin pie spice which has cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and mace.
Maybe this is why we used to call him "Metal Mike."

I've decided I like it better.
Op 13 maart gromden de motoren bij JT Meppel. Ter promotie van de film Need For Speed waren er enkele dure auto's en mooie vrouwen bij de bioscoop.
Bird identification needed please.
This shot really makes me wish that I had a nice, expensive zoom lens.
As I was walking to take a closer look at the bird that's sitting on the branch the other one swooped in and promptly landed on her back, stayed for a few seconds and then flew off again.
This is the same kind of coal that the street vendors use to cook. Fire shoots up through the holes. I'm not sure if it's the cars, or the coal, or the factories, or what, but the air in Beijing was quite dirty.
Looking like part of a buried body sticking out of the beach......
It's just a old glove washed up on Ballywalter beach.
Western Tiger Swallowtail has such tattered wings that I am amazed it can still not only fly, but maneuver quite nicely everywhere in the blossoms.
The Physics of Butterfly Flight:
(Inside Science TV) -- If you have ever heard someone mention The Butterfly Effect, the analogy that the wind from a butterfly's wings or any other tiny variations can cause huge weather effects somewhere else in the world, it may make you wonder, how do butterflies make all that wind in the first place?
Butterflies are totally the dancing queens of the animal world! They have huge wings for their tiny bodies. Their wings are way bigger than many other insects of the same weight. And new research shows butterflies don’t even need all of that wingspan -- their wings are so massive they can fly even with half their wing cut off.
So how does an insect that is huge, brightly colored, and extremely visible, avoid getting eaten by predators?
Well, those massive wings are the answer!
Because the size of the wings are so big, they make it easier for the whole insect to maneuver. A butterfly's huge wings are like having a massive rudder on the back a ship -- the bigger the rudder, the faster the ship can turn. If you have a little rudder, you can-t turn as fast.
If you've ever tried to catch a butterfly, you'll see that those suckers are tricky!
Butterflies also use their wings to make an erratic fluttering pattern -- which is unique to butterflies -- and very hard for predators to predict. Rather than flapping their wings up and down like birds (who fall victim to hungry predators all the time!), butterflies contract their bodies making a figure-8 pattern with their wings. As the butterfly's body contracts, the motion pushes air under their wings, effectively helping it "swim" through the air.
I needed to test out my new Mini 3 Pro, and decided that these stormwater management ponds would be a nice place to try some panoramas.
From the city web page:
After rain or snowfall, the water left behind on roads, sidewalks, grass and pathways is called “stormwater.” This is ordinarily absorbed into the ground by plants and soil. However, pavement and other hard surfaces — such as driveways, sidewalks and roofs (especially in urban areas) — can interfere with this absorption. This can lead to water pooling or even flooding.
To help take care of this, stormwater management ponds exist throughout the city. They are human-made areas created to gather and retain rainfall and surface water runoff. These ponds are usually found in neighbourhoods where stormwater can easily be collected. The City of Vaughan manages more than 150 stormwater management ponds.
Stormwater management ponds can be either wet or dry and they are designed to maintain a permanent body of water within the pond area. A dry pond is designed to remain dry until a rain event occurs which may temporarily retain stormwater within the pond area. A wet pond holds water all the time and is designed to collect and store runoff from rain and melted snow. These wet ponds collect sediment so only clean water is released back into rivers and creeks.

Stormwater ponds have at least one inlet that allows water to flow from the storm sewer system into the pond. Once the stormwater drains into the stormwater pond, any of the sand, dirt and other sediments that pollutants attach themselves to settle to the bottom of the pond. The pond's outlet releases water from the pond into a nearby creek system at a controlled rate. This process helps make the water cleaner when it leaves the pond and back into lakes and rivers. Without stormwater ponds, large amounts of water would enter a stream all at once, causing flooding and eroding soil from the stream banks. Everything that enters a street’s catch basin will eventually end up in a stormwater management pond before making its way back into local creeks, rivers and lakes. This water is not treated before entering the water cycle again; therefore, everyone must do their part to keep it clean.

My son, Isaak, has ALWAYS had a need for speed! Here he is coming right at me in 1990, when he was only 4!
SPORTSMEN and women in need of pre and post event massages are being offered access to some of the area’s up-and-coming sports therapists.
Students at West Cheshire College currently studying for their Level 3 diploma in sports massage therapy are looking for people in need of therapeutic massage so they can hone their healing skills.
Tutor Simon O’Brien said: “Everyone on the course already has a therapy background and is looking to extend their skills into sports massage therapy.
“I know they’re good because I’ve injured my leg during my training for this year’s marathon and I’m feeling the benefits of the therapy already!”
Sports massage therapy is ideal for soft tissue injuries like ligaments, tendons and muscles. Students are able to offer hot/cold therapy and mechanical massage aids for before or after sporting events or for anyone suffering general aches and pains.
Simon said: “Individuals or entire sports teams are welcome to book for sessions which will be held each Wednesday evening from 6pm at the College’s Ellesmere Port campus.”
Massages cost £5 each and can be booked by calling the Bodyworks reception on 01244 670350.

This neo-classical church was made of stone and bricks with Greek pediments. The parish was organized in 1870 under the leadership of an Augustinian priest, Fr. Candido Gonzales. The church was composed of red bricks, stone, cement and wood. It was damaged during the Second World War and the infamous 1984 earthquake. The only thing that with stood the forces of men and nature is its façade. The convent was immediately renovated after the war ended. Major restorations were done through the years but mostly during the incumbency of Msgr. Melicio Fegarido. The inauguration of the fully restored church was done on May 24, 1995 during the celebration of the town fiesta.
Visita Iglesia is a travel blog dedicated to show the world the rich historical and architectural wonders of the churches in the city and province of Iloilo.
Artists donated their time & talent while eager art aficionados asked question and watched as the artists made their creations at the Phoenix Comicon Sketch Offs (Wolverine, Batman, & My Little Pony) benefiting Kids Need to Read.

A conversation prompted by the events described in my last three photos. (I didn't get a texted answer, though.)
Juliette is looking like herself again! I was able to fix her neck without taking her scalp off which was a huge relief. Turned out nothing was broken, the neck post just wasn't all the way in. She is so happy now that all that neck pain is gone and she can look people in the eye. ;) Now I just need to touch up her lips and work on her bangs a bit more.

Chaco Culture National Historical Park is a United States National Historical Park hosting the densest and most exceptional concentration of pueblos in the American Southwest.[citation needed] The park is located in northwestern New Mexico, between Albuquerque and Farmington, in a remote canyon cut by the Chaco Wash. Containing the most sweeping collection of ancient ruins north of Mexico, the park preserves one of the most important pre-Columbian cultural and historical areas in the United States.
Between AD 900 and 1150, Chaco Canyon was a major center of culture for the Ancient Pueblo Peoples. Chacoans quarried sandstone blocks and hauled timber from great distances, assembling fifteen major complexes that remained the largest buildings in North America until the 19th century. Evidence of archaeoastronomy at Chaco has been proposed, with the "Sun Dagger" petroglyph at Fajada Butte a popular example. Many Chacoan buildings may have been aligned to capture the solar and lunar cycles, requiring generations of astronomical observations and centuries of skillfully coordinated construction. Climate change is thought to have led to the emigration of Chacoans and the eventual abandonment of the canyon, beginning with a fifty-year drought commencing in 1130.
Comprising a UNESCO World Heritage Site located in the arid and sparsely populated Four Corners region, the Chacoan cultural sites are fragile – concerns of erosion caused by tourists have led to the closure of Fajada Butte to the public. The sites are considered sacred ancestral homelands by the Hopi and Pueblo people, who maintain oral accounts of their historical migration from Chaco and their spiritual relationship to the land. Though park preservation efforts can conflict with native religious beliefs, tribal representatives work closely with the National Park Service to share their knowledge and respect the heritage of the Chacoan culture.
Use red/blue glasses for best effect.
Anaglyph 3D is the name given to the stereoscopic 3D effect achieved by means of encoding each eye's image using filters of different (usually chromatically opposite) colors, typically red and cyan. Anaglyph 3D images contain two differently filtered colored images, one for each eye. When viewed through the "color-coded" "anaglyph glasses", each of the two images reaches one eye, revealing an integrated stereoscopic image.
