this was apparently an abandoned slaughterhouse in Allentown PA, in a little abandoned 'town' along a river....it was in a thick, creepy wooded area that was suggested to us was haunted....mwahhhaaaahaaaaaa! and....there was a really scary 'backwoods' looking man, angrily shouting/talking to himself, or someone unseen?, wandering about with 2 big dogs---i was nervously and quietly shooting as he walked by through the woods a few times, unaware of our presence....

Lower Slaughter and Upper Slaughter are two tiny villages in the Cotswolds. They are a world unto themselves. Quaint, storybook-like and with few (if any) things catering for tourists. The kind of place where you imagine everyone knows everyone else, by name.
"Slaughter" means muddy place.
Wiley Peebles, Russell Allred, and John Slaughter all perished in the same car accident. The accident occurred just below Mount Bonnell, in Austin, during their Freshman year at UT. That would make it about 1980-1981. Mark Paulson sadly remembers "...the destroyed car was stored at a gas station right across the street from my dorm. A truly sobering sight and a painful, daily reminder of the loss."
I did not meet John until Freshman Orientation (UT), so I did not know him very well. However, I vividly recall seeing my first topless sunbather at Barton Springs with John. I think we gave ourselves away as clueless freshman trying to be cool, but we were getting out and enjoying Austin, just the same.

I didn't know John in high school, just basically knew who he was. However, the first semester of my freshman year at UT, John and I each had a MWF morning class in the same building which let out at the same time. Although we didn't really know each other, we did recognize the other's familiar face in the scary new big world of UT Austin. We quickly got into the habit of walking and talking together after that class. I very much enjoyed my morning walks with John and even after he died in that horrible accident I constantly found myself waiting for him after that class. It was a sad reminder every MWF morning for the rest of that semester that we all lost a really nice guy. I still think of John even though it's been almost twenty years since his death, some people are just hard to forget.

A family I was staying with were slaughtering a few sheep to sell to Ulaanbaatar, and I was kind of surprised how unemotional the experience was for me. They were – obviously – very unsentimental about the whole thing, and even the sheep seemed to accept their fate with a shrug, so I saw no reason to be upset.
Life and attitudes in Mongolia are strongly influenced by Buddhism, with its deep respect for all live beings and nature. This, coupled with a harsh life, in a harsh environment where one cannot afford to waste, is one reason why all parts of an animal are put to use after slaughter.
Here Uree is cleaning out the intestines, which will then be filled with bllod, and boiled to make blood sausage. Nothing is wasted in the process.

The slaughtering floor is a simple concrete platform with lots of water available, as well as a hot water kettle.

The dripping will run for hours into the collecting receptacle at the bottom of the tree. A bit of bark shavings and tree laces thrown into the cup to hasten latex coagulation. Hevea brasiliensis (Willd. ex A. Juss.) Müll. Arg. Euphorbiaceae. [Malay - Pokok getah], Hevea rubber, Para rubber. Hevea rubber is a native from Brazil and an important economic crop widely grown in South East Asia for the production of Hevea rubber. Timber also useful in making furniture. "Slaughter tapping" (intensive tapping) resorted to in old trees before uprooting and replanted with new seedlings. The process involves increasing tapping frequency, extension of tapping cuts and making multiple cuts and indiscriminate use of yield stimulants such as ethephon (2-chloroethylphosphonic acid.). In this parcel 22% ethephon a.i. being used and the trees are scheduled to be uprooted in less than three months. The latex is channeled to the collecting cups. Rain and windy conditions will cause haphazard latex flow and spillage. Tapping is done at night for better yield due to higher tree turgor pressure.
The Plumeria “Slaughter Pink” originated from a seedling grown by Edward Courtade, Sr., prior to 1950. It was grown of seeds brought to Houston, TX from Indonesia by Mrs. Willis Slaughter, a president of the Garden Club of Houston. The name Slaughter Pink was given by Elizabeth Thornton during the writing of her first book on Plumeria to identify this lovely plant. The medium size flowers have a strong sweet citrus fragrance.

Joy Dunlop from Connel (near Oban) in Argyll normally sings in Gaelic only. I took some photos of her performing solo at the Celtic Connections Late Night Sessions last year: www.flickr.com/photos/kmlivemusic/sets/72157625980569170/. Twelfth Day consists of Orcadian Catriona Price and Esther Swift from Peeblesshire. They met while at a music school in Edinburgh and studied together at the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester. The group they formed, Twelfth Day, play both self penned and traditional songs and tunes. The collaboration with Dunlop began after contact through Twitter. They have now made an album “Fiere” (and were touring to promote it) consisting of settings of poems by Scottish women in Gaelic, Scots and English.

Slaughter Beach is a town in Sussex County, Delaware, United States. The population was 198 at the 2000 census. It is part of the Seaford, Delaware Micropolitan Statistical Area. Slaughter Beach was founded in 1681 and incorporated in 1931. There are at least two stories of where the towns name came from: The first is that it was named after William Slaughter, a local postmaster in the mid 1800s. The second story claims “the name came from the horseshoe crabs that wash up on shore and die each year. They come near shore to shallow water to lay their eggs and the low tide strands them leaving them to die, thus the "slaughter."
A favorite Egyptian past time during Eid Al-Adha is to watch the gruesome slaughtering of animals. Adults and children crowd around the scene, running in packs when the blood starts to spray everywhere and when the animals violently shake after their heads are chopped off.
Two oxen are being slaughtered in the large hall. Their legs have been trussed together and two men are cutting their throats. Opposite these men, two others hold bowls to catch the blood which will be made into pudding by the men in the corner fanning fires under kettles. An overseer and a clerk, holding batons, superintend the slaughtering and the plucking of a goose. On the balcony above hang joints of meat. The cords holding joints of meat have been restored.

The village of Upper Slaughter in the Gloucestershire Cotswolds is one mile away from Lower Slaughter and resides on a gentle grassy slope above the stream that connects the two villages.
Once the village was dominated by a Norman castle but all that can be seen of it today are the remains of the motte and bailey.
The building that dominates Upper Slaughter is the beautiful gabled Manor House which is one of the finest buildings in the area. The oldest part of the house dates from the 15th century but the front is Elizabethan. The Manor is now a hotel.

I was asked by the sales person if I was going to rob a bank after I purchased 5 of these masks. I really have no idea where I thought this photo was going, thus had no control on where it ended up.(?) Self portrait with a tilt shift lens. Medium softbox camera right and above with a 580exii at 1/8 power. Triggered with pocket wizards.
A much photographed location, just down from our hotel. I was born about 25 miles from here, but only get back once a year
Um pouco além de Lower Slaughter fica Upper Slaughter, outro lindo vilarejo das Cotswolds, cheio de casinhas bonitas.
Upper Slaughter is a village in the English county of Gloucestershire located in the Cotswold district some four miles south west of the town of Stow-on-the-Wold. Nearby places include Lower Slaughter, Bourton-on-the-Water and Daylesford.
The village is built on both banks of the River Eye. The Anglican parish church is dedicated to St. Peter.
Upper Slaughter was identified by author Arthur Mee as one of the 32 Thankful Villages, although more recent work by Norman Thorpe, Tom Morgan and Rod Morris has revealed a total of 50. Meaning the small number of villages in England and Wales which lost no men in World War I the term Thankful Village was popularised by Arthur Mee in the 1930s. In Enchanted Land (1936), the introductory volume to "The King’s England" series of guides, he wrote "that a Thankful Village was one which had lost no men in the Great War because all those who left to serve came home again."
