On April 22, we have the smallest full moon in the period March 05, 2015 - June 09, 2017 (apogee) ... it is the second smallest full moon of the next 10 years.
But on Nov. 14, 2016 we have the biggest full moon in the period of almost 87 years (between Jan. 26, 1948 and Nov. 25, 2034) ... It will shine with a 30 % larger surface as the full moon this night!!

Am 22. April (in der Nacht zum Freitag, um 01:15 Uhr) haben wir den kleinsten Vollmond im Zeitraum 05.04.2015 - 09.06.2017 (= Erdferne: Apogäum) ... es wird der zweitkleinste Vollmond der nächsten 10 Jahre. Der Abstand vom Erdmittelpunkt beträgt dann 406.355 Kilometer.
Aber: am 14.11.2016 haben wir den größten Vollmond im Zeitraum von knapp 87 Jahren (zwischen 26.01.1948 und 25.11.2034) ... Er wird dann mit einer 30% größeren Fläche leuchten als der Vollmond in dieser Nacht und einen Abstand von "nur" 356.523 Kilometer zum Erdmittelpunkt haben (Perigäum).

In the chilly wind and under a very bleak sun a carpet of small wildflowers decorate Our Lawn. Here are: Lawn Daisy, Bellis perennis; Early Forget-me-not, Myosotis ramosissima; Erodium circutarium, Redstem Filaree.
A query: I didn't know that Lawn Daisy also goes by the name 'Bairnwort'. It's obvious, of course, what that word means. But I couldn't find an etymology in the online OED. Can anyone 'Out There' enlighten me? E.g.: when it was first used. Thanks.
In the drabness of Winter these Chinese Lanterns in Shaffy's Garden. The plant doesn't hail from China but one can imagine why it's called Chinese Lantern Plant with reference to its fruits.
I tried to discover when that term was first used in English to describe our plant, but even the fine OED couldn't help out. Anyone out there in Flickrland know? Do tell me!
'A weather condition in which snow and clouds change the way light is reflected so that only very dark objects can be seen'.

nixon resigned, the rabbit ate my OED, and jimmy came out of the bathroom wearing his favorite dress. i never saw it coming.
Our plant is called Wolf's Claw or Lycopus because its foliage resembles the claw of that beast. No! 'Horehound' is not a scurrilous wink at the Latin name. Indeed, 'hore' has to do with 'hoary' or 'white-haired' and 'hound' with the ancient name of a plant, says the grand old OED.
The tiny rosette flowers of Lycopus are very pretty, but this Flesh Fly probably doesn't care. It's after nutrients.
Just a little Pond Scene.
The great OED writes that 'Calamint' seems to be derived from the ancient Greek for 'beautiful mint', but concedes that this is 'perhaps only popular etymology'. The 'nepeta' is an ancient word for 'from Nepi', a town in Etruria, Italy, apparenly already used by Pliny.
Here are the pretty delicate lavender flowers in the Hortus Botanicus of Amsterdam. Their visitor is a Common Carder Bee, Bombus pascuorum.

La chapelle de Sainte-Marie-du-Ménez-Hom est classée au titre des monuments historiques depuis le 28 octobre 1916
En breton on l'appelle Ti ar Werc'hez (la Maison de la Vierge) comme le langage populaire dénommait les chapelles ayant la Vierge Marie pour patronne. La chapelle et son placître sont situés au pied des deux sommets du Ménez-Hom à une altitude de 193 mètres, au bord de la D 887, ancienne route nationale, important axe est-ouest qui fut longtemps l'axe principal d'accès à la presqu'île de Crozon.
Bei Linz Oed konnte ich die noch sehr saubere 1144 283 mit Pflatsch mit dem DG 54597 von Linz Vbf Ost nach Villach Süd bildlich festhalten. Auch die Sonne blinzelte für die Aufnahme kurz hinter den dichten Schleierwolken hervor.
Puuhh - das war richtig knapp - als der RCA Ekol 42511 auftauchte, war es noch "stockfinster", doch während sich der Zug näherte, schob der starke Wind die dunkle Wolke zur Seite.

Out from the low-hanging clouds Sun suddenly sent a single splash of light brightening Late-Autumn Pink right at my hiking feet. Here's tiny Red Stem Storksbill or Filaree. 'Filaree' is a form of 'alfilaria' which goes back on Spanish and Arabic; it refers to the 'pin-like' seed capsules of our plant. The on-line OED doesn't give 'Filaree'; you'll have to go to other dictionaries or botanical handbooks to follow that word up.
At this time of the year there are no insects to be enticed by the pretty flower spots on the lower petals.
As the saying goes....X marks the spot! "This mark shows the scene of the crime, the hiding place of a treasure, or some other special location. Although this term dates only from the nineteenth century, the use of a cross or the letter X as a special indicator is surely much older. The OED’s earliest citation is from a letter by Maria Edgeworth in 1813: “The three crosses X mark the three places where we were let in.” The term often appeared in romantic pirate stories in which hidden treasure marked on a map figured, as in Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island (1883)."...https://idioms.thefreedictionary.com/X+marks+the+spot

It appears that Robert Vaughan (1592 ?-1666) was born at y Wengraig, seen here.
When he was 20 years old he went to Oxford to study, and later he lived at Hengwrt, near Dolgellau.
At Hengwrt he made a notable collection of manuscripts, of great significance for the Welsh language.

Unterwegs in der Sächsischen Schweiz am Dreisteigensteig zwischen Großen Pohlshorn und Zeughaus.
Immer wieder trifft man in der Hinteren Sächsischen Schweiz auf Waldabschnitte, die Borkenkäfer, Trockenheit und Sturmschäden schwer mitgenommen haben. Einzelne Flächen hat der Sachsenforst bereits beräumt, anderswo ragen die Restgerippe aber noch in den Himmel empor.
Fast könnte man meinen, dass die Natur einen Plan verfolgt - denn nach den trockenen Vorjahren war die Angst vor Waldbränden in den Borkenkäferbeständen nicht unbegründet. Und prompt zeigte sich der Sommer 2021 als überaus nass und verregnet. Und so täuscht das Endzeitmotiv darüber hinweg, dass im Unterholz das frische junge Grüne schon fleißig am Nachwachsen ist. Wachsen und Vergehen...der Kreislauf der Natur.
Der Dreisteigensteig ist übrigens einer der ältesten Wege in diesem Teil des Elbsandsteingebirges. Er ist schon auf den um 1600 entstandenen Karten der Ersten Kursächsischen Landesaufnahme des Vermessers Matthias Oeder verzeichnet. Auf den Meilenblättern aus der Zeit um 1780 ist er noch als "die drey stege" bezeichnet, was sich auf die Brücke über die Kirnitzsch bezieht, die man auf dem Weg von Hinterhermsdorf in Richtung Zschand, Zeughaus und weiter zum Großen Winterberg zwangsläufig überqueren muss.

It's a rather boring name, is Umbrella Plant. But 'Indian Rhubarb' might cause confusion, conflating it with Rheum webbianum, which indeed hails from the Indian subcontinent. The 'Indian' in the common name of our plant refers to Native Americans. As far as I can trace it, that name goes back to at least 1697 when a description of its gum was given by one Martin Lister (see OED). The plant was first described in 1849 under the scientific name 'Saxifraga peltata'. In 1899 it was given the current moniker 'Darmera peltata'. It hails from western North America where it was first collected by Karl Theodor Hartweg (1812-1871) near Sacramento in 1839. 'Darmera' is for Karl Darmer (1843-1918), indefatigable horticulturalst of Berlin, Germany.

Mae Llywodraeth y DU wedi ei chlymu ei hun wrth ymosodiad Israel ar Gaza, ymgyrch filwrol sy'n gam yn y broses o lanhau ethnig. Mae hi wedi awdurdodi allforio arfau sy'n cael eu defnyddio i ladd Palesteiniaid, merched a phlant yn fwyaf arbennig. Mae hi'n rhannu gwybodaeth oruchwylio ac mae wedi hyfforddi personél milwrol Israelaidd yn y DU. Mae hi'n gwneud ei gorau i roi taw ar y rhai sy wedi eu cythruddo gan farbariaeth Natsïaidd ac ideoleg hiliol Israel. Mae llawer o'r cabinet wedi cael rhoddion gan gefnogwyr Israel. Dyma gymryd rhan - cymryd rhan hyd yn oed mewn lladd babanod na allan nhw fyw am nad oes trydan yn yr ysbytai neu am nad oes moddion, neu am fod gwaharddiad ar fynd â llaeth i fabanod i mewn i'r Llain. Wrth bleidleisio, ni ddylai neb ohonom anghofio rhan y llywodraeth yn yr hil-laddiad. Lladdwyd o leiaf 57,000 o Balesteiniaid hyd yn hyn.▪️The UK Government is deeply entangled in Israel's assault on Gaza, a military campaign which is part of the process of ethnic cleansing. It has authorised arms exports which are used to kill Palestinians, more especially women and children. It shares surveillance intelligence, and has trained Israeli military personnel in the UK. It does its best to silence those who are outraged by the Nazi barbarism and racist ideology of Israel. Many of the cabinet have had donations from Israel supporters. This is being complicit - complicit even in the killing of babies who cannot survive because there is no electricity in the hospitals or because there is no medication or because milk for babies is not allowed into the Strip. When we vote, none of us should forget the complicity of the government in the genocide. At least 57,000 Palestinians have been killed so far. -▪️ "Starmer may never truly recover from his remarks in October 2023, when as leader of the 0pposition he said Israel had the right to cut off Gaza’s water and electricity. Later he backed Israel’s war continuing for many months and only called for a ceasefire once tens of thousands of Palestinians had been killed. Since then, his actions have demonstrated that the party leadership never learned a lesson from these catastrophic positions, despite anger from Labour parliamentarians, the party’s membership and the public." - britainpalestineproject.org/a-personal-view-how-starmers-...
▪️"Israel’s public image is somewhat protected by the fact that its behavior is so profoundly evil that simply talking about it strains credulity among the uninformed, in the same way you sound like a crazy conspiracy theorist if you talk about some of the things the CIA has openly admitted to doing in the past. Many people literally cannot believe anyone could be as evil as Israel is, so the true extent of their crimes go unseen." Caitlin Johnstone▪️"Mae delwedd gyhoeddus Israel wedi ei hamddiffyn rywfaint oherwydd, gan fod ei hymddygiad mor anfad, mae hyd yn oed siarad amdano yn golygu bod pobl heb wybodaeth ddigonol yn ei chael yn anodd dros ben eich credu, yn yr un ffordd ag y bydd dyn yn swnio fel rhywun dwl sy'n lledaenu damcaniaethau am gynllwyniau wrth sôn am rai pethau a gyfaddefodd y CIA iddyn nhw eu gwneud yn y gorffennol. Mae llawer o bobl sy'n methu'n lân credu bod unrhyw un yn gallu bod cynddrwg ag ydyw Israel. O ganlyniad, mae gwir hyd a lled troseddau Israel yn aros allan o'r golwg." Caitlin Johnstone (07/2025) ▪️▪️▪️ 2020 "Among some 40 Israeli soldiers who gave testimonies for the report, a number described rudimentary training and also often a lack of language skills for interacting with the Palestinian families they encountered.
For some, like Fadel Tamimi, the 59-year-old imam at a mosque in Nebi Salih on the West Bank, the raids have become familiar over the past 20 years. He says he has lost count of the number of times soldiers have entered his home, suggesting it could be more than 20 – most recently in 2019, just before the coronavirus pandemic.
“The reason they do this is to scare everyone. To show who is in charge. They never say why or show an order or piece of paper,” he told the Observer last week. “On one occasion, I remember I had gone to the mosque for the first early morning prayers. When I came back the soldiers were in my house. They had put all of my family in the kitchen. When I went into my bedroom I found three soldiers resting on the bed.
“The consequences are psychological. You feel your privacy is being invaded. It’s horrible for a conservative family and a traditional society. The aim is to control and humiliate.”
“What comes to my mind,” says Dr Jumana Milhem, a psychologist who works with Physicians for Human Rights Israel, “is that the process involves the dehumanisation of a whole society.

"When I speak of a genocide being 'immeasurable', I'm speaking of a horror that transcends the already staggering numbers of the dead and maimed. It encompasses the calculayted, systematic destruction of every condition necessary for life, extended into every season. In Gaza, this winter is not a simple change in the weather, it's a weapon of mass suffering, and it's being deployed with precision.(...) Palestinian doctors have reported infants freezing to death in displacement camps. Just the other day, Gaza's Ministry of Health confirmed a two-week-old infant succumbed to the cold and wet. The science is simple: malnourished bodies, already depleted of fat and muscle, cannot generate the heat needed to survive this cold and damp. The UN warns the risk of hypothermia is 'heightened', with babies in 'very high danger'. This is of course all well known, predictable, and entirely preventable but not whilst Israel controls the area..

"Elizabeth Morley an 80-year-old activist whose father was a Jewish survivor of Auschwitz, was arrested for the third time in London this weekend under the Terrorism Act-for holding a cardboard sign. Elizabeth is a member of Ffrindiau Palesteina Aberystwyth / Aberystwyth Friends of Palestine and a founding member of the Aber Weds Vigil.
Defend Our Juries has called the arrests of peaceful protesters an "extraordinary affront to democracy." The UK government has promised new legislation to crack down on repeated demonstrations, in a move widely seen as targeting pro-Palestine protesters. Under the proposed laws, police would be given powers to force demonstrators to change location if they are deemed responsible for "repeated disorder." "A government facilitating genocide wants to ban protests against genocide. This is shameless opportunism by Israel's apologists. And the net result will be that the right to protest against anything will be left in tatters."
