Attention escort pilots: A new threat from the secretive Hellionic Conclave has emerged. Already being called the "Devil's Talon," the small ship appears to be built around a single devastating neutron cannon of the type typically found on much larger ships. Be advised that while its recharge time between shots is significant, a single hit can take down lightly armored fighters. Treat this ship with respect.

EXPLORED!
Back in January, IC2466, the last remaining active "blue devil" made a few trips north along the old IC on CN G889. We'd figured it wouldn't be visible in daylight, though we'd later learn we were wrong, so my buddy and I shot it deep into the night, even though that's not such an easy task.
We finished our night far later than we should have, when G889 parked up at Tolono in the siding. The newly re-installed SafeTran signals, moved closer to the road last year, cast off quite the eerie red glow on the roadbed and locomotive alike. Turned a blue devil into more of a... normal devil, I guess. Call it a red one, for fun. A neat look anyway!
IC2466 was built as an LMS unit, sold to the CN after a few years of shared CN/CR leasing, and put into the IC number range. The last I heard of its whereabouts was that it was stored in Markham, though it may well be on its way to scrap by now.
Devils Kitchen is located east of Greybull Wyoming on the edge of the Shell Creek Valley. The varicolored, Early Cretaceous Cloverly Formation is exposed in the Kitchen inside the eroded center of a upfold or anticline called the Shell Creek Dome. Devils Kitchen is known for its badlands topography where soft, layered sedimentary rocks like sandstone, siltstone, shale and claystone get eroded into spires, towers and fanciful shapes. In this semiarid environment there is sparse vegetation and little soil development on these rock outcrops. Erosion caused by flash flooding from occasional thunderstorms carves this landscape with an assist from the other usual physical and chemical agents that weather and weaken the rock. The floor of "the Kitchen" is characterized by mounds of weathered claystone; silstone and shale.

Another version tells that two Sioux boys wandered far from their village when Mato the bear, a huge creature that had claws the size of tipi poles, spotted them, and wanted to eat them for breakfast. He was almost upon them when the boys prayed to Wakan Tanka the Creator to help them. They rose up on a huge rock, while Mato tried to get up from every side, leaving huge scratch marks as he did. Finally, he sauntered off, disappointed and discouraged. The bear came to rest east of the Black Hills at what is now Bear Butte. Wanblee, the eagle, helped the boys off the rock and back to their village.
This is Yohko from the anime Devil Hunter Yohko. :) She was a gift to a friend for a Secret Santa event. She was kinda late though... XD;
1 Peter 5:7–8 (ESV)
7 casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you. 8 Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.
DEVIL (Gk. diábolos “slanderer”). Another name for Satan, God’s adversary. Whereas the Old Testament contains references to “demons” (so RSV, NIV; KJV “devils”) and “satyrs,” the New Testament presents a more developed demonology. Here some of the angels are said to have fallen from their state of integrity in heaven and placed themselves under the rule of the devil. As their prince (Matt. 9:34), the devil—called the “father of lies” and the “murderer from the beginning” (John 8:44)—opposed Christ’s redemptive work by sending demons into people who then involuntarily became demon-possessed (see DEMON).
The devil himself sought to annul Christ’s ministry by his temptations in the wilderness, the region where, according to the Old Testament, demons and satyrs existed. Temporarily abandoning the effort after three unsuccessful attempts (Matt. 4:1–11 par. Luke 4:2–13; Mark 1:13 has “Satan”), the devil waited for an opportune moment (Luke 4:13), which came during the passion week when he had Judas Iscariot, one of Jesus’ disciples, betray his master (Luke 22:3, “Satan”; John 6:70; 13:2). (Though Luke suggests Jesus’ victory over the devil, he also records Christ’s awareness of his power [e.g., Luke 8:12; see also Matt. 13:39], especially through his endeavors to block the expansion of the kingdom of God by means of demon possession.) At Acts 13:10 the apostle Paul blinds Elymas on account of his alleged cooperation with the devil.
Through his resurrection Christ broke the power of death and, in principle, the power of the devil (Heb. 2:14; cf. Acts 10:38; 1 John 3:8). God’s adversary may still prowl “like a roaring lion” (1 Pet. 5:8), but his reign will end at the great battle of the final tribulation (Rev. 20:10) or at the Day of Judgment (Matt. 25:41). Meanwhile, believers are warned not to play into the hands of the devil (Eph. 4:2) but to resist his wiles (6:11; cf. 1 Pet. 5:9), and office bearers are exhorted to display kindness to unbelievers in the hope that they may escape from the devil’s tentacles (2 Tim. 2:25–26).

Another towering travertine geothermal cone demarcating Jupiter Terrace (left) and Palette Spring in Yellowstone's Mammoth Hot Springs area.
Funny that so many geologic features are named after the bad guy. Just in Yellowstone, there's also a Devil's Kitchen also in Mammoth (as well as in Shell, Wyoming, see my photos thereof). Just north of the park, in Custer-Gallatin National Park, is Devil's Slide (which I think is a volcanic dike), and beyond, Devil's Tower in Wyoming. The list goes on!

n 1965, the French government transferred the responsibility for most of the islands to its newly founded Guiana Space Centre. The islands are under the trajectory of the space rockets launched from the Centre eastward, toward the sea (to geostationary orbit). They must be evacuated during each launch. The islands host a variety of measurement apparatus for space launches.
The CNES space agency, in association with other agencies, has restored buildings classified as historical monuments. Since tourism facilities have been added, the islands now receive more than 50,000 tourists each year
One of the huge 'Devil's Arrows', Boroughbridge. There may have been five of these gritstone menhirs at the site originally. Now only three survive. They appear to have been placed to align with the southernmost summer moonrise.
In 1906 President Teddy Roosevelt designated Devils Tower as our 1st national monument. The tower was formed by magma which cooled underground and was later exposed after millions of years of erosion.
Totally magnificent sight out there rising above the rolling hills...Close Encounters of the Third Kind to be sure!
Female doberman Hainide Beke-Biene aka Devil, owned by my friend, Hanna-Maria. This is one of my favourite shots of her. She looks so graceful, powerful and royal. I find dobermans amazing!
Took a road trip up north of us for a little day hiking. It was one of our few sunny days of late and there was a lot of color around the lake. We even spotted a flock of Cedar Waxwings picking berries off the trees! It certainly got crowded as the day wore on. Could be the last warm day we have for a while. Snow in the forecast!!!!!
One of my favorite lookout spots off the blue ridge parkway. You have to hike up a steep path about a half mile long to get to this point but it was all worth it!
Generally this was a bit of a disappointing day out. You can't get near the stones easily as they are in the middle of a corn field and the weather was just dull. I can't say that I really like any of the pics I took. The non-ir ones are even worse, just grey and uninspiring. At least you can usually extract a bit of sky from the ir ones.
For anybody who wants to know what a Devils Arrow is you should have a look at the previous picture, the links are on there.
Devils Tower (Lakota: Matȟó Thípila ("Bear Lodge") or Ptehé Ǧí ("Brown Buffalo Horn") (Arapaho: Wox Niiinon) is an igneous intrusion or laccolith in the Black Hills near Hulett and Sundance in Crook County, northeastern Wyoming, above the Belle Fourche River. It rises dramatically 1,267 feet (386 m) above the surrounding terrain and the summit is 5,114 feet (1,559 m) above sea level.
Devils Tower was the first declared United States National Monument, established on September 24, 1906, by President Theodore Roosevelt. The Monument's boundary encloses an area of 1,347 acres.
In recent years, about 1% of the Monument's 400,000 annual visitors climb Devils Tower, mostly using traditional climbing techniques.
