  5. McGruff's Bridge Part 3 of 3

    While waiting for Elaine to arrive, Saya listened to thrushes in the bush, and Sheila continued smoking, much to the displeasure of the troll, as the fumes wafted down under the stone span.

    After a pause, The Adventure of Nike spoke. “I can’t believe that troll. It said that I stank.”

    Picking up a spray of elm leaves that had fallen from the trees, Saya hid her amused smile behind it. “Maybe you should go back and complain.”

    “Humph.”

    The two fell silent again until Elaine, the Ashen Witch, strolled up to the bridge. [Again, in case you’ve forgotten who that very handsome witch who had just stepped on stage and the bridge is, it’s me.]

    Indeed, like the others, the local gulls had forced me out of the sky, and I was making my way to the Three Goats Inn and Tavern. The thought of their famous bread pudding and cream puffs hurried my steps. My heart lept at the sight of the bridge. I hurried across it only to have someone bellow at me from below. “Who’s that crossing my bridge?”

    Turning, I found a huge, lumpy monster climbing over the span’s parapet. At four meters in height, it was a dominating figure. The leprous skin covering its enormous frame resembled lichen as much as anything else.

    “I’m Elaine, and if you’re thinking of eating me, you should reconsider. Instead, I can recommend in…”

    “Shut up! Two previous women promised me a luscious dinner, and here you are.”

    “It wouldn’t have been those two ladies, sitting under that elm,” I said, pointing to where Saya and Sheila sat. “This is truly a #mecca for scoundrels. Even for a troll, you were foolish to listen to them. One would think a mountain goat had kicked you in the head.”

    “Enough,” the troll thundered and charged toward me.

    Modesty forbids me from describing how I dealt with the troll, but in the end, it went sailing over the parapet and fell into the river, where it sank like a lead stone.

    As for my fellow witches, they were obliged to treat me to as much sausage, bread pudding, and cream puffs as I could eat.

  7. Jelang masuk zuhur tadi (waktu Makkah), panjang bayangan di Masjidilharam hampir nol karena Matahari tepat ada di atas Makkah.
    Karena itu, bayangan benda tegak bisa untuk menentukan arah kiblat. Ada yang ikut mengukur bayangan dari rumah sore tadi?

  8. When #Paris is hotter than #Mecca: How #Europe’s heatwave compares globally

    Paris and other European cities are experiencing temperatures above 40C (104F), reaching levels normally seen across the #MiddleEast

    Scientists say the early-season #heatwave is part of a broader warming trend. Europe is the world’s fastest-warming continent, with temperatures rising by approximately

    >> 0.56°C per decade

    since the mid-1990s, more than double the global average.

    Climate change is making heatwaves more frequent, more intense and likely to occur earlier and later in the year.
