originally, i'm more like a vegetarian rather than a meat-eater. i think that's why i'm not very good at cooking meat. i felt like a firebug.

Mission log: 10.1

 

"They say that insects don't like fire. I find it is a highly effective weapon if used correctly. Sadly command felt it more appropriate that I lead Spearhead Company from the helm, and it would not be safe for me to carry the flamethrower. A shame truly. I knew that I would need CT-1138 to cover me should I need support so I tasked the Flamethrower to one of the Rookies from Nelvaan to carry it.

 

Regardless, we were one of the few legions of the Corps that were not caught in space combat. It was a relief quite frankly. I despise flying. As General Kenobi might say "flying is for droids". I was to move with my company to squash Geonosian forces who were advancing on General Unduli's position. We were made aware that the Geonosians had been busy since our last visit, and had construct new hives using the wreckage from various ships. I was puzzled by the weird structure that they had constructed. According to CT-5698 this is was to indicate sacred ground to the Geonosians.

 

I had no concern for this. These bugs were scum and if I had the flamethrower, I would of burnt the structure to the ground. But as I moved ahead with CT-5698 and CT-1138 covering the flamethrower, a Geonosian warrior jumped from out of the wreckage and engaged us. He fired and gunned down CT-7896 and turned his attention to me. He fired first, but missed. I on the other hand never miss..."

On a personal note. I feel that this is my best build for the corps yet! I hope you all enjoy it and be sure to check other images in my photo stream for more views of the different parts of the vignette.

Johnny Foreigner playing at the Summer Sundae Taster, Firebug, Leicester, UK.

Taken on the last day of web development for a local business' website I was working on. I spent about four days on it, and it has an inventory system that will (someday) be integrated with a shopping cart and online payment... 90% of the work was getting that going, and about 10% on the design. I used the Forest Floor Drupal template, modifying it here and there where I needed to spruce things up.

 

Old site is located at www.statuesplus.com (the new site will go live at this address in less than a week).

 

App Purposes:

-Finder: to find things, of course!

-Mail: always running, no matter what. Check for mail every minute.

-Safari: personal browser of choice. Runs fast and (usually) lean.

-FireFox: Main development browser. Firebug ROCKS!

-Cyberduck (FTP): Nice, lightweight and FREE FTP client.

-Dreamweaver: I do most of the CSS and PHP editing here, although I'd like to get TextWrangler

-Photoshop: Graphics. All of 'em.

-iTunes: Need to listen to music while I work.

-iChat: It was locked up, but it's usually running in the background.

-VMWare Fusion: Testing purposes - running IE 7, IE 6, and FireFox Windows.

-Textedit: Good for to-do lists, plain-text conversion, and quick edits.

-Address Book: Had to look up the phone number of the guy who owns the site.

   

Once upon a time, i was like the Ladybird Master. I used to see ladybrid everywhere, even the yellow one !

Love the red color on the bugs ....

 

I shot this during our photo tour to Theosophical society of Chennai. (Look at the map). I noticed these bugs while walking near the Adyar river. Their bright red color caught my attention. What is another interesting thing about them is that they always walked with their back to each other ... as if protecting each other ... looking out for each other.

 

It made me wonder, whether I have anyone .. a friend .. a partner who will ALWAYS watch my back ?.. .. .. something to think about on a Tuesday ...

 

Have a nice week ahead folks!

These guys were impervious to the rain, and loved tending the fire

Mostly nymphs. Wiki says of firebugs: "They are frequently observed to form aggregations, especially as immature forms, with from tens to perhaps a hundred individuals." :q

Die zwischen 1898 und 1930 von der Landesversicherungsanstalt Berlin errichteten Arbeiter-Lungenheilstätten Beelitz-Heilstätten bilden einen der größten Krankenhauskomplexe im Berliner Umland. Es ist ein denkmalgeschütztes Ensemble von 60 Gebäuden auf einer Gesamtfläche von ca. 200 ha. Jeweils nach Geschlechtern durch eine Landstraße getrennt, befanden sich in vier sogenannten Quadranten nördlich der Bahnlinie die Kliniken für Lungenkranke Frauen und Männer, südlich die für Patienten mit nicht ansteckenden Krankheiten. Nach dem Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs, in dem die Heilstätten teils schwer beschädigt wurden, wurde das Gelände 1945 von der Roten Armee übernommen. Die Heilstätten dienten bis 1994 als das größte Militärhospital der sowjetischen/russischen Armee im Ausland. Ein Teil des Geländes wurde nach der Privatisierung in den 90er Jahren saniert, andere wurden Opfer von Vandalismus und gerieten immer mehr in Verfall. Auf einem Teil wurde ein Baumkronenpfad von 320 m Länge errichtet, der über eines der Gebäude führt und einen Rundumblick vom 40 m hohen Aussichtsturm bietet.

  

The Beelitz-Heilstätten Workers' Tuberculosis Sanatoriums built between 1898 and 1930 by the Berlin Regional Insurance Office are one of the biggest hospital complexes in the surroundings of Berlin. The complete ensemble of 60 buildings on a total area of about 200 ha is a listed historic monument. It was divided into four sectors by a road crossed by a railway line. North of the railway there were the two sectors for male and female tuberculosis patients, south of it the other two sectors with hospitals for non-infectious men and women. After the end of World War II, during which some of the hospitals had suffered severe damages, the Red Army took over the entire complex establishing the biggest soviet (later russian) military hospital out of the Soviet Union (later Russia) operated until 1994. The complex was sold to an investor who renovated part of the building but later became insolvent. For years, large areas were left to abandon, the buildings pillaged and vandalised. Some years ago a private investor bought parts of the former sector for female tuberculosis patients and built there a treetop trail with a length of 320 m crossing one of the former hospital buildings offering a panoramic view from an observation tower with a height of 40 m.

Phytophageous real bugs are wandering around a lot while mating;

however, I am not sure if these "firebugs" really belong to Pyrrhocoridae (Dysdercus cingulatus-Group) ? NO, the do not!

Firebugs, too, seem to prefer a cultivated ambience like the dining hall of the Alpine House displayed on an information plaque next to the destroyed building.
