May we make wise choices in how and what we harvest,
may earth's weather turn kinder,
may there be enough food for all creatures,
may the diminishing light in our daytime skies
be met by an increasing compassion and tolerance
in our hearts.

This is not a morph but a real cat. It is a Maine Coon cat and they tend to be much larger than the average Tabby, just like Great Danes are much bigger than Weiner dogs, even though this one in Russia is with his owner is unusually much larger than most of his breed. His name is Kefir.  :)

US Army soldiers from the 2nd Cavalry regiment in Germany practice with a virtual reality Carl Gustav recoilless rifle, designed in Sweden but made in the USA, perhaps in anticipation of the Russians doing something stupid in Ukraine.  :( >:(

This photo was taken by Australian wildlife conservation artist Deb Farrimond of a couple of Boobook owls who were observing her and she took photos of them. Here is one of many.  :)

"The set of 97 steps between M Street NW and Prospect Street in Georgetown—better known as the Exorcist Steps—is now a historical landmark. But don’t queue up the 1973 movie in celebration yet: We don’t exactly have The Exorcist to thank.

The Historical Preservation Review Board on Thursday granted historical landmark status to the steps, the retaining wall on one side of them, and the old Capitol Traction Station building on the other side, and also recommended that the site be nominated to the National Register of Historic Places. The board voted to adopt a report written by the Historic Preservation Office, which broke down the reasons for the site’s significance. The steps’ history as the site of a pivotal death scene in The Exorcist received some of the harshest words in the report.

'[The Exorcist] has stood the test of time (even if its special effects now look a bit cruder to our eyes),' the report reads. 'But this does not necessarily rub off on the 36th Street stairway as a participant in the "artistry" of "creative masters" of cinema.'

The report lists several reasons why filming a horror movie alone isn’t enough of a reason to declare a place a historic landmark. For one, the application doesn’t include the house where most of the movie takes place, 3600 Prospect Street NW, and splitting up the sites 'diminishes the significance of the parts.' (The HPO apparently ain’t afraid of no ghosts either, pointing out that because the house and the steps are separated by a lot, filmmakers actually added a false wing to make the house appear closer, for the scene in which a priest is thrown out the window and down the stairs to his death. 'It was deemed implausible for even a supernatural force to hurl a body clear over an intervening lot,' the report quips.)"
