Huhuh. Huhuhuh. He said 'helmet.'

 

 

Some good ones here already. I like the Japanese aircraft carrier article a lot. Over 700 killed, amazing. And my 'last person to be executed in New York' is pretty bizarre; Mrs Lurtz is off to America soon for a few of months to work on death row appeals and stuff. Spooky.

A Kame

 

A kame is a geological feature, an irregularly shaped hill or mound composed of sand, gravel and till that accumulates in a depression on a retreating glacier, and is then deposited on the land surface with further melting of the glacier. Kames are often associated with kettles, and this is referred to as kame and kettle topography.
