I spent 40 minutes in the Sleeping Beauty castle breezeway just now trying to defeat a Lugia raid boss, finally defeated it, then failed to catch it despite making 1 excellent throw and 4 great throws. 😟

I did get a fast TM out of it, though. And I’ve got a sweet World of Color fastpass for later. So I’m good.

MAPFRE continue Leg Zero dominance:

a-solitary-sea-rover:

MAPFRE maintained their near-faultless performance in Volvo Ocean Race qualifying – and gave themselves the best possible chance of completing overall victory in the Leg Zero series – as they led the fleet over the finish line on a short opening stage of the final race out of Saint-Malo.

Extended periods of extremely light weather meant that the Saint-Malo to Lisbon leg had to be split into two parts.

As expected, the Volvo Ocean 65s stayed tightly bunched on the first of those, a drag race towards Le Grand Lejon. Vestas 11th Hour Racing were neck-and-neck with MAPFRE for the lead, with the Spanish side just pipping them to the line.

Dongfeng Race Team grabbed third ahead of Turn the Tide on Plastic and team AkzoNobel. Preliminary unofficial results gave Team Sun Hung Kai/Scallywag and Team Brunel the same time, with less than a mile between the first and last teams in the seven-boat fleet.

Now that the teams have completed their ‘Sunday drive’ – a 25nm sprint in just 10 knots – they can prepare for the restart which will begin from Chaussé de Sein at 0900 UTC on Monday. It will be a staggered start based on the finishing deltas from Sunday.

The fleet will start with light south easterlies that will quickly die and then come back from the west. This will be a critical transition to manage as the whole race course will favour the leaders and punish the stragglers.

The fleet will negotiate the passage of a cold front early Tuesday morning and the new wind will set them up for a downwind drag race towards Cape Finisterre, the northwestern tip of Spain. It will be a race for their competitive lives – with light winds chasing them as a ridge of high pressure again pushes into the normally tempestuous Bay of Biscay.

¡Vamos MAPFRE! 😀👍

Hypnotizing Translucent Waves In 19th Century Russian Paintings Capture The Raw Power Of The Sea

Ivan Konstantinovich Aivazovsky loved
painting the sea. A Crimean native, he was born in Feodosia, a port
town, and thus had great waters as a constant companion. This 19th
century Russian Armenian painter had real knack for depicting waves.
Light and translucent, they perfectly capture the essence of the real
thing. Many of these paintings featured a human element, too, with ships
showing the struggle between man and nature.

During his career, Ivan Konstantinovich
Aivazovsky painted more than 6000 paintings, half of which depict sea
and ships. He often went to watch naval manoeuvres and even painted the
siege of Sevastopol. Aivazovsky was widely recognized even outside the
Russian Empire, receiving awards from France, Turkey and others.

NYC Dance Project by Ken Browar, Deborah Ory

I’m fascinated by ballet dancers in long skirts. It’s such a contrast to the minimally clothed “here are my entire legs” look of a lot of dance costumes, and you get a whole different notion of what is being demonstrated or displayed, what shapes are being created.
