Muslim disgust at IS atrocity & A frosty morn!

In the wake of the latest Islamic State atrocity its pleasing to see this article by Sky News where UK muslims have branded it as a "Cowardly and criminal act"
The importance of the day it was carried out is not lost on them either.  Eid Al-Adha is to muslims the world over the "great day of mercy"  It was reported in other sources that even an Al qaeda representative could not secure the release of Alan Henning and called them "Difficult and Tough" - - -

The shark attack victim here loses an arm and a hand and still has the will to swim 100 metres back to the beach in Western Australia!  The authorities then promptly catch and kill 2 great white sharks swimming in the area - - - luckily a para medic was on the beach at the time and this probably helped the guy survive the attack - - -


OKn data centre's? you know the kind of thing, big room racks of "boxes" all with the obligatory blinking lights.  This story just leaves you reaching for the pillow or the wine bottle.  Its about the possibility/probability and expense of having data on "flash" rather than disk.  - - - I profess to know a thing or 2 about PC's and the like but this is just way over my head - - - pass the wine please - - -

This is a must see video, its titled Best ever parents, and shows a baby Elephant being rescued by its parents when it falls into what looks like a ditch - - -



Closer to home
We had our first "real frost" this morning
the pic is of the kitchen roof and the frost was quite thick even though the temp only dropped to +1.1c
maybe the fog kept the temp above zero?
It was certainly a different story yesterday afternoon after all the rain had departed

Its the first Sunday in the month so time for our friend Lisa to be cutting hair at the local once again.  Sally will be dropped off then i walk down later, rather than sit there listening to the "girlie talk" and then we wander back through the fields by the river - - -

Enjoy the day
