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!

...I up and made us some deviled eggs! For no reason! Not even a picnic!
(After I'd already boiled, cooled, peeled, and cut in half the eggs, I realized that my kitchen had no celery or onion in it! Which is pretty rare, really, and sort of freaked me out. So these deviled eggs have no crunchies in them and are served with dill pickles to compensate.)
This huge caterpillar is native to our area and was found on the Philadelphia University campus. It has a striking teal green color with black spikes and two brown areas (front and back) to tell predators: LEAVE ME BE! It will become the six inch brown with orange spots Regal Moth (Cranshaw, 2008). A great website for more information is found at the University of Florida:http://entomology.ifas.ufl.edu/creatures/bfly/regal_moth.htm
I was in front of mirror n saw my 4 side-teeth which are completely eligible for non-veg food, so I got the idea about "Devil" personality...
As promised from yesterday's sneak peak. See if you can spot the climbers from yesterday's photo. Clouds had moved in at this time. But I have some much better photos of the tower with cloud filled blue skies in store for another day.
This photo was taken at a place called the Devil's Cauldron at Whale Beach on the Northern Beaches. I was accompanied by a work colleague of mine,Vic Feferberg whose own photo stream you can view at www.flickr.com/photos/vicfefer/.
It was an early morning shoot which meant getting up at 4am on a cold Autumn Sydney morning.
But it was worth it. So please enjoy the shots of Devil's Cauldron and feel free to comment so that i may improve my photography skills.
for those wishing to know more of this place and if you happen to be in Sydney, check out this link

Near Kenora, Ontario, there is a narrow water channel in the Lake of the Woods, which is known as "Devil's Gap". Natives believe there are spirits which live within certain rocks at the lake, and this particular rock is one of the best-known of the spirit-rocks. In the late 1800's someone painted a face onto the rock, as a joke, and people have kept repainting the rock ever since then.
Tasmanian Devils are threatened with extinction due to a contagious cancer that has spread among the endemic population in Tasmania, Australia. Research projects have been hard at work trying to come up with a cure – a vaccine or medication – to combat the cancer, which causes horribly disfigurement of the face of the animals and is always fatal once contracted. The cancer is spread when the devils rub each others faces as part of a mating ritual. This Tasmanian Devil and the images you'll see in the other postings were photographed at a research institute where healthy animals from outside the affected regions they are being bred with those from affected areas to replenish the gene pool with, hopefully, individuals who are immune to the cancer.
Wall-mounted devils
These are made to be hung on a wall or door, placed to convey a suitable menace, and have a small hole on the back to take a finishing nail.
I’ve made them in a variety of earth tones, using several different types of clay and fired-on oxide finishes. The ones illustrated [l-r] are made from whitish, red, and “black” clay [actually a dark grey-purple]. Dimensions vary slightly, but they are approximately 160/135/65 mm h/w/d.
