These wolves followed us for two days. They made several attempts to get our food and eat our dog Zap
For this episode of Deadliest Warrior, we are traveling to an abandoned prison camp, previously the site of POWs, now the battleground between two of the deadliest forces in the universe will fight to the death. In the left corner, we have a commando representing the SAS, one of the toughest groups of modern soldiers in the world. He is armed with a combat shotgun and an SMG to take on any foe. On the other hand, in the right we have a trooper from the 4th Colonial of sector 6J of the outer rim. Part of the Elite Corps, he is armed with a C94 Softnose Laser and a helmet viewfinder capable of seeing in ultraviolet and infrared light, along with night vision and several other different filters. The helmet also holds the communication center and health regulation monitor which can detect if the wearer is being subject to radiation, and other things of the sort. And it also, of course, plays Tetris. ;) Who will prevail in this brutal fight? Find out next time on DEADLIEST WARRIOR!

Petunia is a, trumpet shaped, widely-cultivated genus of flowering plants of South American origin, in the family Solanaceae.
Some botanists place the plants of the genus Calibrachoa in the genus Petunia. Botanically speaking, tobacco, tomato, potato, and petunia are all in the family Solanaceae.
Le petunie sono note per la bellezza dei fiori, da coltivare in vaso o fioriera. Il genere Petunia comprende 40 specie di piante erbacce, annuali o perenni, per lo più originarie dell'America Meridionale.
Sviluppano ampi cespugli, densamente ramificati, alti 25-60 cm, presentando spesso fusti prostrati o ricadenti; le foglie, di colore verde chiaro, sono ricoperte da una sottilissima peluria, al tatto risultano leggermente appiccicose, ed emanano un caratteristico profumo.
Negli ultimi anni la Petunia ha conosciuto un notevole successo commerciale, soprattutto grazie agli ibridi a portamento ricadente che hanno invaso il mercato guadangando una notevole fetta di mercato nell'ambito dei fiori da balcone. In Italia e in molti altri paesi europei l'ibrido più conosciuto è la Petunia Surfinia, varietà ricadente propagata a mezzo talea (la pianta è sterile, ovvero produce semi non utilizzabili) di cui esistono molte versione anche a fiori doppi.
Two.S.Doll Mayi Sweet Dream
I love this Doll. She was really what i was looking for for my character. She is really cute and she's got half closed eyes.
Her faceup is gorgeous, even if it is the standard one. They put even some glitter on it. I don't like pink but i think that really suits her, because she's a romantic girl.
Medusa was an OC... of when i was really young (about 9 i think) and she usually dress bride-like dress because she hope that someday she will meet someone that will not became a stone in front of her.

This was my set up today... Two chairs, 1 poster board(under sheet), and a sheet from my bed set that I don't use XD;; It's wrinkly because I tossed it in the corner since the day I bought it... XD;;
You can see our new carpet on the right *A* And my mom's marbling attempt on the concrete floor. xD;;
Long story short... Carpet was ruined from a lot of diff things so we ripped it all out and she stained it to have this effect. We quite enjoy it~!

Gold finger-ring with intaglio
AD 200-300
Found in Old Ford, Bow, Tower Hamlets
This is one of the finest pieces of jewellery to be recovered from a cemetery. It was found in 1995 during archaeological excavations of a cemetery that served the settlement at Old Force, where the London to Colchester road crossed the River Lea. Five graves were discovered and the ring was found on the third finger of teh left hand of a woman, aged 17-22 years. She also wore a number of copper-alloy bracelets.
The gold ring is set with a carved nicolo gemstone (intaglio). Nicolo is a banded agate of greyish-blue and white. The gemstone cutter removed almost all of the white to leave a hazy grey colour on the surface. It is likely this was a betrothal ring, indicating the woman was engaged or married. The ring shows little wear and may have been fairly new when buried.
Notice that the carving shows two mice dining together. This is a scene from the story of the town mouse and the country mouse, from the Satires by the Roman writer Horace.

Part of Roman Dead (May – Oct 2018)
Spurred on by the discovery of an extremely rare sarcophagus in Harper Road, Southwark, last year, curators have assembled 250 fascinating objects to reveal the surprising similarities as well as striking differences between the original Londoner and the modern global city that 9 million people now live in today.
These items range from everyday objects, such as pots and vessels which may have held incense used in ceremonies to bury loved ones, to priceless artefacts, like a millefiori glass dish which would have cost the equivalent of a year’s salary for a Roman soldier. These precious items highlight that even from its earliest days, some of London’s population possessed immense wealth, and that the city had connections to the rest of the world.
