Stormy sky is winning shot in Suffolk Beauty photography competition. The image, captured by Juliet Blaxand at Easton Bavents, came top in the new contest which was run for the first time this year. Organised by the Suffolk Preservation Society (SPS), the competition saw more than 100 entries sent in and scrutinised by judges Roy Fox, Linda Clapham and Richard Jozefowski. They were tasked with whittling down that number to a shortlist of just 10 photographs. Winners were announced at a ceremony at Haughley Park Barns on Monday. A photograph called Southwold Beach Huts by Kinga Ston came second, while an image named Ipswich Street Scene taken by Matt Huggins was third. Winner Juliet said her home – which is the most easterly placed house on the Suffolk coast – was the focus of her entry. The judges awarded her first prize because of the way she had captured the “atmospheric Suffolk sky”. They praised her placement of the historic farm buildings, the image’s open...

Image
Late Show  host Stephen Colbert dragged President Donald Trump on Monday with a gay joke about him and Russian President Vladimir Putin.                 Watch show “The only thing your mouth is good for is being Vladimir Putin’s cock holster,” Colbert said in his opening monologue. The  Late Show  host was responding to Trump's  interview with John Dickerson , who hosts  Face the Nation  — which also airs on CBS. Trump said during the interview that he liked to called the show "Deface the Nation."

These Japanese Islands Are Completely Dominated By Feral Cats

A ferry from Fukuoka, Japan will take you to  Aoshima Island  in less than 20 minutes. Though just slightly more than 50 people -- mostly fisherman and their elderly relatives -- inhabit the island, Aoshima has become a booming tourist attraction. Why? Cats. Known as "cat island" and "cat heaven," Aoshima has six cats for every human, making the island a veritable breeding ground for and "civilization" of strays. Indeed, cats arrange themselves in hierarchies, where males compete for territory and their female mates compete for food. Taken together, this yields a violent patriarchy of warring factions. As you might imagine, these cats don't live as long as their domesticated counterparts: Ferals have a life expectancy of  three to five years  whereas house cats easily can live for 15 years. Consequently, cat researchers and activists argue that living conditions on cat heaven are anything but heavenly. With so much interspecies competition, kit...
