Kid's book breaking the circle.

You call that breaking? The fog and smoke from your average summoned demon covers up more than that!

 

Kids today are ill-served by overprotective parents. In my day we wore floor-sweeping robes and if the circle of ash got jostled a little, why, that's just a chance we took!

Irresponsible summoning responsible for population decline! News at 11! :D

Putting the size in perspective

If the Earth were to be represented by a sphere one centimeter in diameter, the Sun would be represented as a sphere with a diameter of 109 centimeters, at a distance of 117 meters. At these scales, VY Canis Majoris would have a diameter of approximately 2.3 kilometers, assuming the upper limit estimate of the radius of VY Canis Majoris.

 

Puts things in perspective. :)

on the floor' date=' the sides of the two triangles are straight. In the book, the lines meet at the smallest circles at a distinct angle[/quote']

...Yeah, those kids are dead. Even if they're just summoning an elemental, it's probably going to explode.

 

...Magically, which could be worse than normal.

That's a pretty sweet way to clean your room. Make a golem to clean up whatever doesn't go into making the golem. Once that's done' date=' the golem climbs into the toy box and breaks apart into its components.[/quote']

 

That's never how it works though. These darn creations are always like "I want to live!" and rampaging and stuff.

2009 Photo Contest

The winners of our 39th annual photography competition

 

A great wildlife photograph celebrates the unexpected, and the 39th annual National Wildlife Photo Contest is full of improbable images: A bald eagle and its prey appear frozen in midair. A night-blooming flower glows from within, revealing a visiting insect. Calling for a mate, a Brazilian frog appears nearly swallowed by its own vocal sac. This year’s contest winners are drawn from nearly 70,000 entries—the largest pool in contest history—in seven categories: Mammals, Birds, Other Wildlife, Landscapes and Plant Life, Backyard Habitats, Connecting People and Nature and, for the first time, Global Warming. This new category features species whose habitats or behaviors have been affected by climate change. Along with selecting the two $5,000 grand prize winners—one each for the professional and amateur divisions—judges awarded cash and other prizes for the first- and second-place winners in every category in each of the two divisions. One winner was also chosen in the youth division.
