3-D targets also contain iron, for example in the leg of a deer. If an arrow hits it, the tip will be flattened and the shaft can splinter

I know that's not what it's supposed to be but it kind of looks like that. I hope no one suffered one of these today.

Opened in 1867, Dieweg cemetery served as the municipal burial ground until the Second World War and was definitively decommissioned in 1958. It is a testament to the peak of funerary art, when the great families erected veritable architectural works of art for their deceased loved ones, sometimes in the form of chapels (such as the “Allard Chapel” and its family vault, considered the biggest private funerary monument in Belgium). All the styles in vogue at the time are represented, starting with the “neo” or revival styles (Egyptian, Greek, Romanesque, Gothic, Classical, etc.), followed by Eclecticism and Art Nouveau and ending with Art Deco.
The Royal Cement Plant has an interesting history. Originally built in Iowa in 1954, it was purchased and moved to its current location in 1985 for $500,000 by a one Aldo DiNardo. It cost another $500,000 just to transport it. DiNardo then spent the next ten years rebuilding and trying to bring the plant up to EPA standards, which he claimed wasn't necessary since the plant had originally been built before the current EPA rules.
DiNardo was fined by the EPA and currently owes $70,000 in back emissions fees and late charges and $94,000 in penalties. Yet, after sinking over 12 million into the plant and never making any real money, DiNardo claimed that he wanted to reopen the plant, insisting he could make it profit.
On July 1, 1999 a fatal accident occurred at the plant, caused mostly by aging equipment. An electrician was electrocuted when he contacted an energized 4160 volt cable inside the crusher and finish grinding transformer. The flicker switches in the interrupter switches for the transformer were defective in that they did not open when the switch was tripped due to an accumulation of dust and dirt. With the switches stuck in the closed position, power was inadvertently supplied to the 4160 volt transformer. The Royal Cement Company was ordered to pay just $5,000 in fines.
In 2003 the BLM discovered that the plant was essentially occupying on public lands illegally, as DiNardo failed to pay fees of $1,300 to maintain his mining claims to the area in 2002. The voiding of the claims was never appealed, and DiNardo's plan of operations were revoked.
