Holy Island â LJ Ross First in the DCI Ryan crime fiction series. Lots of groundwork introducing key characters and relationships, along with the main plotline featuring murders by a satantic cult on the Holy Island of Lindisfarne. All the better for having been there recently, which makes it easier to âseeâ the...
Duncan Rawlinson photographed this scene at Antelope Island State Park in Utah, where rust-toned rocks anchor the foreground beneath a darkening sky. The Great Salt Lake stretches across the middle ground, its shallow channels reflecting muted tones of gray and white. Storm clouds build overhead, casting diffused...
In a total solar eclipse, the difference between 92% and 100% is everything. At 92% the sky goes a bit weird and those with glasses see a small solar crescent. Curmudgeons remain unimpressed. At 95% the solar disc is still aflame but sunset appears to be approaching early. At 98% the daylight dims and, if you're...

The trip was organised by Grove Ferry River Trips (contact details below), who provide the boat and the skipper plus a very well-informed ecologist who gave us lots of information about the wildlife in and...
The uncertainty that surrounds the rest of Diageo doesn't seem to be affecting the folks at Guinness: the one bit of the drinks multinational which looks to be washing its face, and no doubt the faces of Johnnie Walker and Captain Morgan too. At The Open Gate Brewery in Dublin, they're continuing to turn out new...
Another lovely day again with warm sunshine. Think I am out of the dog house at last. Thank goodness. Started to clean the borders up the drive. Did wasps nest.
You Don't Need the Title to Signify What This Art Represents, Which is Why I Don't Include It.Among the One Hundred: The ProfessionalsWhere it comes to first capturing favorites, timing is all. I came to The Professionals, rather it came to me, at age twelve on verge of thirteen. Story, setting, stars, never better...
