She's got my legs...
->
NY resolution 2010!
Eventually I found the legs I want!
It was a bit like online shoping when I stumbled over the picture of
Christine Roth who surely won't be keen to sell hers, so I will have to work for it.
Those pictures are now hanging right behing my monitor...
No more excuses... it is possible!

This is one tough plant
This plant has been housing an ants nest for three years. It was in a pot in the conservatory and every spring the ants would move in. All summer soil was evenly distributed over the window sills, ... little did I know. Rarely watered to not annoy the ants it survived until the little critters moved out around August and then after a good watering even grew leaves. The plant now found a new home, I am keen to see what happens in spring.

Project: Rowing Marathon underway!
By: Rika
I had been pondering over a charity indoor rowing marathon for quite a while and on Friday 10th July I got an idea regarding how the whole thing could work out, so the decision was final.
On Saturday the 11th July I felt nervous.
On Sunday the 12th July, 8:15 AM, after a cup of cappuccino and no breakfast I decided to sit down on the rower and to find out where I was standing on the fitness front.
1 hour and 50 minutes later, calling rather shaky legs my own, I had finished a
half marathon.
Definitely fit enough to be prepared for a marathon in a years time!
And it will be in favour of

A picture that says more than 1000 words
By: BOS
posted via: Twitpic
Shortly after arriving [at Nyaru Menteng Orangutan Reintroduction Project in Central Kalimantan - Indonesian Borneo] - Pickle gets to know one of the foster mothers who will look after him for the next seven years of his life.
He actually should be with his mum right now, being taught how to become a big wild Orangutan. Thanks to the people of BOS and other Great Ape affiliates he and others like him have got a second chance in life! ... and thinking of it - so might we! In the light of global warming, rainforrests may be the one thing that can save out bums. BOS and all the others are phantastic conservationists campaigning for the preservation of rainforrests. What they are achieving for the Orangutans, they are achieving for every single one of us as well!

Week 27
Since a week these two have some sort of a stand-off every night at around 10PM. They are like clockwork and fill the garden with huffing and puffing. The third one seems to be scared of them and rather attends to the leftovers of the bird food - which partly consist of dry cat food - adding weird crackling and sniffling noises. For about half an hour each night our garden is turning into some sort of jungle scene.

Quadriga
By: Detlef
sent per email from his trip to Braunschweig, Germany where he visited the roof of the Braunschweig Ducal Palace
A rare close up of the Quadriga on the roof of the re-built palace of the former Dukes. The original palace burnt down, the second one got heavily damaged during WW2 and then demolished. Parts of this front were saved and now re-built into a new shopping centre. This Quadriga is by far the biggest one of the four existing in Germany. It was created in 2005 after the model of the previous ones.

Where to draw the line?

Those are my muscles. I worked hard for them, and if I were to be judged I would loose the competition.
Those are my muscles, and if I were to be judged I would paint them darker and might win.
Painting the skin is common practice, painting the image is cheating.
These are the same muscles, where to draw the line?
