The ancient ceremonial dagger had many uses: Cutting out hearts, cutting out eyes, cutting off... um, cutting out intestines, and cutting up the high priest's food...
This beautiful dagger was spinning.....I will see if I can match it up in Wagner. I'm not sure I've seen one quite like it before....

Man, that's a purple-prose name for this picture. With a name like that, I'm now forced to write a fantasy novel, even though I don't think I could write actually write a fantasy novel unless I copied someone else's word-for-word.
...
So, in other words, expect my new fantasy novel, Dagger in Amber to hit shelves in the Winter of 2010! Excuse all similarities to George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire. (It was the one closest to my treacherous plagarist's hand, and I'm notoriously lazy.)
Oh -- another leaf, drop, autumn shot. Enjoy.
It's Spaceship Week at Horizon Exports! For the next few days, we'll be showing off the front-and-center representatives of Infinite Horizon, so head over and take a look!
Interrupted Dagger Caterpillar (Noctuidae -- Acronictinae --Acronicta interrupta) on Prunus. Sugarloaf Mountain Park, Frederick County, Maryland.
They are mainly predatory flies and generally small to medium sized, non-metallic and rather bristly. The 'dagger' refers to their sharp, piercing mouthparts. It's on a Red campion (Silene dioica) flower. One handheld shot.. :-)

FOR almost three-quarters of a century, highly trained groups of Soldiers have been inserted behind enemy lines to disrupt the movement of enemy troops and supplies to the front lines. These brave Soldiers have frequently used parachutes as a means to infiltrate without being detected.
Although most of the airborne forces of the world still use round parachutes, some specialized military free-fall units use ram-air airfoils, which provide control of speed and direction, as their primary means of infiltration.
Descending from the skies at 12,500 feet, traveling nearly 120 miles per hour, free-fall parachuting is the closest humans have ever come to actually flying. For the Black Daggers, the official U.S. Army Special Operations Command Parachute Demonstration Team, that's a typical Monday morning.
During their two-mile drop, the Black Daggers maneuver their body using their hands, arms, legs and shoulders to control their flight. At a few thousand feet, they deploy their parachutes and land with pin-point precision, whether it's in a football stadium or on their training grounds near Fort Bragg, N.C.
Their mission is to perform live aerial demonstrations in support of Army special operations community relations and recruiting. Composed of volunteers from throughout Army special operations, the Black Daggers have diverse backgrounds and are skilled in various military specialties including Special Forces, Rangers, civil affairs, psychological operations, and signal and support. With an average age of 33 and an average number of free-fall jumps at 560, the team represents the professionalism and dedication of Army special operations forces.
Awesome creatures these Dagger caterpillars. i think this is a Dark Dagger rather than Grey by virtue of the fact it has orange blotches on the thoracic segments but then again the protruberance looks a bit on the big side so maybe a Grey but to be honest what do i know .
So Grey/Dark it is
A Wapiti (Cervus canadensis) bull from Rocky Mountain National Park, Grand County, Colorado.
Broken Dagger is a wapiti bull of the Kawuneeche Valley that I first mentioned when introducing Flattop. He was the first bull I photographed, tending to a harem of about a dozen cows in a stand of aspen and spruce. After the sun had set he finally stepped out into a small clearing, his hindquarters coated in mud from a wallow. To make themselves more intimidating, bulls will copiously urinate into muddy areas and wallow in their own juices, so to speak. Broken Dagger earned his name from the royal (aka dagger) tine that was missing on his right antler. The dagger is typically the longest and most intimidating tine on the antler. It is likely that it was lost during battle with another bull - perhaps Flattop. It is not uncommon to see bulls that have broken and battered antlers during the rut, and almost half of the mature bulls we saw were missing some portion of at least one tine.
This is either a Grey Dagger or a Dark Dagger (Acronicta sp.), but since I didn't get to examine the genitalia we'll never know!!!!!! Whatever, it's a very distinctive beauty!
One of Chirox's cruel "jokes", Dagger Spiders are nearly indistinguishable from Devourers. When it crawls onto a host, it injects a slow acting poison with each step. The host does not realize anything is amiss until they find themselves paralyzed and helpless. The Dagger Spider then feeds on the host's corpse for months. Thankfully, they are rare.
Rehvenge: O que?? Como não vai poder vir de novo?
Se não fosse por Rehv ser um homem de sentidos aguçados, talvez não sentisse alguma coisa diferente nas conversas que tinha com Dahlia ou do modo como ela agia. Mas a falta que ela fazia em seus "jantares" deixava o homem em alerta de coisa estranha estava acontecendo.
Dahlia: Ah me perdoe Rehv, de verdade. É que estou em época de inspiração e você sabe~ Não posso deixar de atender aos meus clientes~
Rehvenge: Isso eu entendo, mas é a segunda vez que não vem. Da primeira, já me deixou secando...sozinho.
Dahlia: Juro que vou te recompensar! Talvez no próximo sábado posso dar toda minha atenção ao meu sócio favorito~~
O moreno apenas arqueava a sobrancelha, não engolindo o charme forçado.
– Dahlia.
– Sim?
– Tem algo acontecendo que esteja tomando sua atenção, além das jóias? – "Ou alguém?", pensava amargamente, se segurando para não falar alto.
– Mas é claro que não! Sabe como sou dedicada a minha profissão. Não precisa se preocupar Rehv. Eu tenho que ir, mais um cliente. Passe bem~ ^3^
Ouvia os "bip,bip" da ligação e Rehvenge não iria simplesmente engolir aquela pedra.
Tinha algo chamando a atenção de sua rainha. E ele fazia questão de querer saber o que. ou quem.
Ligava para um dos funcionários da boate e quase um secretário particular, tremendo de ansiedade e fúria ao mesmo tempo.
Rehvenge: Trez! Cancele todos os meus compromissos hoje e diga a Ayla que está de folga.
Trez: Ué Õ__O Que que deu em você? Hoje ia conseguir uma grana preta dos uruguaios com a coc--...
Rehvenge: Hoje eu farei uma visita surpresa a minha sócia favorita..... e venha rápido, eu não quero me atrasar. por. nada.

Just messing around with the Khordald Dagger from Eldritch. I found out that the weapon poses for the dagger worked surprisingly well with a running pose I had in my inventory. I'll have to do more experiments with their weapon AOs :3! You can find the weapon here. marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Eldritch-Khordald-Dagger/719...
