BBC News - Somalia: Western hostages freed in US military raid. Also, I show you a folded MAXICARD / MAXIMUM CARD / DORINCARD with a BISON cow and calf, who sometimes do playful buttheading. But criminals and other evildoers should NOT butthead with the LAW ENFORCEMENT AUTHORITIES or the MILITARY FORCES. "Black Hawk down" was an exception; in general, criminals should NOT provoke a military power like USA

'via Blog this'

Against criminals of all sorts, we should do whatever it takes to give them what they deserve, including capital punishment. From case to case, all things considered.

"No IFs, ANDs, or BUTS"..."No IFs, ANDs, or (HEAD) BUTTS".


B, as in Bison, Buttheading...

Dung beetles, Hymenoptera, Cockchafers...they all are a yummy part of the diet of 
the GREATER HORSESHOE BAT (Rhinolophus ferrumequinum).

"Diet and hunting

The species feeds preferentially on lepidoptera (moths), making up around 41% of the diet[13] - in particular the noctuidae species [14],Coleoptera (beetles) constitute around 33% of the diet[13], of which dung beetles are often taken[.] Aphodius rufipes is one such dung beetle forming an especially important part of its diet. Cow pats are part of its life cycle, acting as food source and habitat for the larvae. Up to 100 larvae can be found in a single cow pat. The beetle is most abundant in August when the young bats begin their first feeeding flights).[15] The remainder of the diet being Hymenoptera and Diptera.[13] Cockchafers also form an important part of its diet."

"The greater horseshoe bat is the largest bat in Europe.[5] It has a distinctive noseleaf, which has a pointed upper part and a horseshoe shaped lower part.[6] Its horseshoe noseleaf helps to focus the ultrasound it uses to 'see'. "

"Dorincard: Blogger Dorin C is a stamp and postcard fanatic, and luckily he's more than pleased to write prolifically and charmingly about his obsession. He has a particular bent for stamps with wild mammals on them, but his blog demonstrates an affinity for stamps of all forms and backgrounds, as long as they offer a special narrative that's worth sharing with his readers.

    Comments:
    Postcards and stamps, mainly featuring mammals and birds but Dorincard also has other creations
    and interests he likes to share.
    His enthusiasm for Maximum cards (a postcard and a similar themed stamps sent through the
    postal system) shines through.
    He shows how he gets the right card, stamp and postmark together.
    Visiting his site you will also learn things about the natural world told with a dry sense of humour,
    possibly with a play on words, and a unique style of headings.
    Topical and informative both for the enthusiast and casual visitor.
