Why are they called "deviled"?
Apparently (translation: according to History.com), "the first known printed mention of ‘devil’ as a culinary term appeared in Great Britain in 1786, in reference to dishes including hot ingredients or those that were highly seasoned and broiled or fried. By 1800, deviling became a verb to describe the process of making food spicy. But in some parts of the world, the popular egg hors d’oeuvres are referred to as “mimosa eggs,” “stuffed eggs,” “dressed eggs” or “salad eggs”—especially when served at church functions—in order to avoid an association with Satan."
So anyway... these "stuffed/deviled" eggs have:
• Dijon mustard,
• mayonnaise (Duke's brand),
• garlic & onion powder,
• sambal oelek chili paste,
• one finely chopped red jalapeño pepper,
• freshly ground black pepper,
• salt,
• basil,
• paprika,
and are garnished with a caper.
I saw a photo of this bridge posted on John4KC's Flickr stream and thought it might be a good time to post these.
This is a two-span through truss bridge that crosses the Big Piney River at Devil's Elbow on U.S. Route 66 (currently Teardrop Road) in Pulaski County, Missouri. The bridge is still open to traffic, but a little TLC wouldn't hurt. It was built in 1923 by Riley & Bailey, Contractors, however, it was made obsolete by a new U.S. Route 66 bridge in 1942.
Traveling east to west, the direction we were headed, the traveler crosses four concrete deck girder spans with a curved alignment, then two riveted 8-panel Parker through trusses, and finally one riveted Warren pony truss.
The total length of the bridge is 588.8 feet, with the largest span being 161.0 feet. The deck is 19.4 feet wide and the vertical clearance is 14.0 feet (although it's marked 13 feet 8 inches).
The bridge appears on the Devil's Elbow USGS topographic map. The bridge's approximate location is 37°50'51"N, 92°3'44"W (37.8475, -92.0621)—that's actually where I was standing when I took this photo.
The bridge's inventory number is MONBI 18976 (Missouri bridge number on the National Bridge Inventory).
During the inspection of September 2007, the deck condition rating was Poor (4 out of 9). The superstructure condition rating was Poor (4 out of 9). The substructure condition rating was Fair (5 out of 9). It's Sufficiency Rating was 30.9 out of 100. The overall condition of the bridge was appraised as Structurally Deficient.
In 2007, an average of 100 vehicles crossed daily.

Devil's Lake, Wisconsin
Devil's Lake was originally a gorge of the Wisconsin River prior to the last ice age. At what is now the southern end of the lake, the river turned from a southerly direction to an easterly direction. During the ice age, a lobe of the glacier passed to the east of the Baraboo Hills and came up the river valley. It deposited materials and then melted, leaving a terminal moraine blocking the river, forming an earthen dam. Another moraine was deposited at the north end of the lake. The river eventually found a new course to the east of the Baraboo Hills, where the glacier had been, leaving a portion of the river gorge between the moraines filled with water. This body of water is Devil's Lake. - info from Wikipedia, the free encylopedia
Count Devil Ish likes to dress up and be elegant to better seduce you, hence furthering is domination of the world one human at a time.... He loves Halloween even though he will never admit! (the Count just cannot resist candies) His official position on the matter is that this celebration contributes to ridicule all things evil and scary and that he couldn't possibly tolerate it ;)
This plush is all hand sewn (no machine involved here!) with love with cotton thread of the best quality (DMC cotton perle) and both eco-friendly and a wool blend felt in blood red, black, slate and white colors.
He is wearing an elegant costume ornate with vintage French linen which is actually a piece of an old handkerchief, the edge of which was all hand sewn in a scalloped motif.
The button is also vintage and comes from my grandma's closet back in France.
Now up in my online shop :)
South Puyallup camp ground, Mt. Rainier. The stone columns are huge, even though this picture's perspective doesn't show it.
Here is one more photo that I decided to edit after searching through my files. It is a shot from the Devils Garden in the Grand Staircase, Utah.
I took it about 10-15 minutes after sunset in hopes of capturing some type of glow on the rocks as well as the sky, I hope you enjoy.

We got there before sunrise and it was a cold October day presenting a pretty dark and moody place. The hexagonal columns are quite a sight.
St. Croix landmark tumbles
Chuck Haga, Star Tribune
April 12, 2005
It stood by the river for thousands of years, shaped by wind, water, heat and cold, and was admired by countless visitors easing past in canoes, boats and inner tubes. It became part of a town's identity and a bond across generations.
But the Devil's Chair, an ancient natural rock formation on the Minnesota side of the St. Croix River near Taylors Falls, is largely gone -- a heap of broken stone scattered about what was the chair's base.
Officials at Minnesota Interstate State Park, which included the famous landmark among its attractions, said Monday that they believe vandals caused much of the chair's high backrest to fall.
"There were scuff marks and pry marks that look like people tried to push more of it over," said Larry Buchholz, park manager. "It was helped to fall."
A rock climber reported the landmark's destruction on Saturday, he said. The
climber had been in the area the previous weekend and saw the Devil's Chair intact, so the damage had to have been done since then.
It is "difficult and challenging but not impossible" to climb to the chair site, Buchholz said.
The Chisago County Sheriff's Office and state conservation officers are
investigating, and notices asking for information have been posted in the area.
Park officials plan to inspect the remaining rock to assess its stability.
"It was our primary scenic, geological and cultural formation, and now it's gone," Buchholz said. "You can't replace it. Once it's gone, it's gone forever."
Both the park and the town of Taylors Falls used the unusual rock formation as a logo.
"It's been a point of local pride since before the park was established in 1895," Buchholz said.
The park also features unusual formations collectively known as the Devil's Parlor -- three or four "potholes" caused by swirling water and sand from melting glaciers boring through solid rock. Two of those holes side by side are known as the Devil's Footprint. They were so named long ago, Buchholz said, "because if you couldn't explain something in the natural world you blamed it on the devil."
Mayor Mike Buchite, a Taylors Falls resident since 1989, said that he has admired the formation since he first saw it in 1971 on a post-prom field trip with other members of the Elk River High School graduating class. He said he hopes an investigation finds that the collapse occurred naturally.
"Mother Nature put it there, and you stand there and look at it in awe," he said. "If Mother Nature were to take it away, you'd still look at it in awe and wonder. But if vandalism was involved, that makes you feel violated."
The city may consider offering a reward for information if vandalism was involved, he said.
Buchite said he visited the site Monday and saw that part of the formation
remains. "It's the back rest area that's gone," he said. "It looks more like a stool now. Maybe we'll rename it the Devil's Stool."
Amy Frischmon, 35, operates Taylors Falls Scenic Boat Tours, which carries
thousands of area people and tourists past the Devil's Chair and other stone
formations each year. "The Devil's Chair is best seen from the river, in the Dalles area of the St. Croix," she said. "It was a pinnacle of rock that looked like a high-backed chair. Millions of visitors must have seen it over the years." Losing it "is quite a tragedy for our little community," she said.
Her great-grandfather started the boat tours company in 1906, "and I grew up climbing in those rocks," she said. "My older kids all got to know the Devil's Chair. Now all I can think about is my 3-year-old will never know it. That makes me sick to my stomach."
That vandalism may have brought the formation down "makes it that much more
horrible," Frischmon said.
The Devil's Arrows are three standing stones or menhirs in an alignment erected near where the A1 road now crosses the River Ure at Boroughbridge in North Yorkshire, England.
Erected in prehistoric times and distinctively grooved by millennia of rainfall, the tallest stone is 22 feet 6 inches in height making this the tallest menhir in the United Kingdom after the Rudston Monolith which is 25 feet tall.[1] The stones stand 150 feet from the A1 and it is thought that the alignment originally included up to five stones. One was apparently displaced during a failed 'treasure hunt' during the 18th century and later used as the base for a nearby bridge over a river. The stones are composed of millstone grit, the most likely source of which is Plumpton Rocks two miles south of Knaresborough and about nine miles from where the stones stand today.[2]
The outer stones are 200 and 370 feet away from the central stone and form an alignment that is almost straight, running NNW-SSE. It is thought that they may have been arranged to align with the southernmost summer moonrise. The stones are part of a wider Neolithic complex on the Ure-Swale plateau which incorporates the Thornborough Henges.

This is at the same time a long and short report , about the traditional sacred and profane feast with pagan roots, called "u Ballu di Diavuli" (The Dance of the Devils) that I made this year on the afternoon of Easter in the Sicilian village of Prizzi (in the province of Palermo); this feast, which has medieval origins, is the representation of the eternal struggle of Evil (two Devils and Death) against the Good (Christ and the Virgin Mary). Devils wears a wool suit in red (the color of the fire of hell ...), also wearing a flashy iron mask with a big mouth adorned with big teeth and a lolling tongue, the mask is surmounted by two horns while the back is covered with a fleece of a goat that covers shoulders and back (a Devil has a black fleece, the other Devil a white fleece), and Devils shake pieces of iron chains which are agitated bumping against the masks; the Death wears a wool suit of yellow ocher, wearing a leather mask always yellow, which looks like a skull, from his mouth come out long teeth, it holds in its hands an "instrument of death" very similar to a medieval crossbow. The feast begins on Easter morning, Death along with the two devils (which have become even four, to involve as many passers-by) roam the streets of the town of Prizzi, engaging with the passers jokes and cajoling, passers are invited to dance with them at the sound of the well-paced band music. Often the two devils "capture the spirit" of a passer, which to be able to see his liberated soul .... must issue a small donation symbolic .... Nevertheless, the name of the Sicilian feast "the Dance of the Devils" originates from a very special time of the event, when the two statues of the Risen Christ and the Virgin Mary are in front each other of them to meet (U 'Ncontru): it is here, between the two statues, the two Devils and the Death staged a bustle of dancing, jumping, coaxing ... with the aim of preventing this meeting, but they will be slain by the swords of the Angels (Angels to guard the Risen Christ), so the Mother and her Son can meet, in a blaze of joy of the devotees, with the Good that has defeated the well forces of Evil ...
This cross has an old legend around it. From www.guiarepsol.com/en/tourism/destinations/themed/popular...:
According to local residents, a brash young man, known for his party animal spirit, met a beautiful girl. His plight to win her affections in order to prove his heartthrob status finally won her over. Their date took place on a cold, stormy night. Lightning struck nearby, lighting up what should have been the girl's beautiful legs; however, what the man actually saw were claws. He fled in terror and reached the Convent of the Barefoot Carmelites, where he hung on tightly to the cross, asking for divine help to prevent him from being taken by the devil. To this day, his handprint can be seen on the cross.
To draw attention to the plight of the Tasmanian devil I am going to be making a work a day throughout October inspired by Tasmanian Devils.
Tasmanian Devils population has declined by 90% in large areas of Tasmania due to Devil facial tumor disease. In November I will be taking part in the Garmin Point to Pinnacle; a 21.4km long and just over 1,270 meters in elevation run up Tasmania's Mount Wellington to raise money for The Devil Island Project (www.savethetasmaniandevil.org.au/) If you would like to sponsor me you can at this link> garmin-point

Devils Wall.
This is the „Teufelsmauer“, a geologic oddity that can be found near the Harz mountains and near to my stay last weekend. I visited the place before, it's a strange landmark. Weather was great, bot so much the time I got there, but at least some landscape pictures.
This amazing exhibition tells the story of arguably the Greatest Munitions Factory on Earth, which was constructed on the Anglo-Scottish Border between scenic Dornock in Scotland and bustling Longtown in England. During 1915, Britain was at a massive disadvantage in the early part of the Great War through lack of a decent and consistent supply of quality ammunition.
That is until 30,000 women and men travelled from all over the world to come and work in this one massive factory, purpose built by the government on the northern shore of the Solway Firth specifically to mass manufacture cordite: a smokeless explosive usually made from nitro-glycerine and nitro-cotton that would go on to turn the battle around! Within 2 years this one uber factory was producing 1,100 tons of cordite a week, which was more than all the other munitions plants in Britain put together!
Nach über 30 Jahren ist im Duisburger Zoo wieder der Teufel los. Seit dem 23. März 2017 haben 2 tasmanische Beutelteufel in ihr neues Gehege bezogen. Die Halbbrüder Cam und Currle sind aus dem Kopenhagener Zoo gekommen.
In freier Wildbahn sin die Beutelteufel von einer hochansteckenden Krankheit bedroht, der Devil Facial Tumor Disease (DFTD).
Der Duisburger Zoo ist einer der wenigen Zoos außerhalb Australiens der Beutelteufel beherbergt und der einzige in Deutschland.
After more than 30 years, the devil is back in the Duisburg Zoo. Since March 23, 2017, 2 Tasmanian devils have moved into their new enclosure. Cam and Currle are brothers and came from the zoo in Copenhagen.
In the wild, the devil are threatened by a high-risk disease, the Devil Facial Tumor Disease (DFTD).
The Duisburg Zoo is one of the few zoos outside Australia who show tasmanian devil and the only one in Germany.
Tasmanian devils could be extinct in 10 years :
