Elizabethan London
Tyburn was an infamous execution spot west of London, used since medieval times. The Tyburn "tree" - a unique, multi-person gallows - erected in 1571 became a popular public spectacle, drawing crowds of thousands.Tyburn Tree blog is less blood-thirsty but hopefully topical, interesting and informative, if slightly bent to my personal topics of interest - books, writing, history, technology, with a smattering of politics and dash of pop culture, science and the downright strange. So "take a ride to Tyburn" and see what happens...

Beneath the hurtling moons of Barsoom...

No beauteous Dejah Thoris, and no tharks or thoats anywhere in sight, but the Curiosity rover is taking some breathtaking and superlative shots nonetheless.

Welcome to Mars.
