well - not so clever of him to sit ON the item but well *shrugs* ... if he wouldn't sit on it with his tiny shroom-butt you could see a leaf-throne with roses ... maybe tomorrow ;D
the third onion: coming soon from a major publisher, this tale of psychic warfare and elite toupée design competitions is destined to be a summer beach-read classic and an autumn remainder table fixture.
ghostwritten by mark ninewands, the film rights are rumoured to have been sold and danny boyle may be directing.
Two weeks after the second trip into Zambia we headed out again, this time for Mulobezi with 12th Class 204, recovered and ready with additional water and coal supplies.
This was the third attempt to reach Mulobezi in 1994.
My "micro" (20cm) Candoia carinata paulsoni.
I didn't forget him, I was waitin' his first meal (well..actually only with forced feeding...).
This GE AC44C6M sits third in line on the motive power of this parked intermodal train. I was driving through the town of Greencastle PA when I saw these engines sitting idle, so I swung in to take a couple pictures before getting back on my way north.
Kite Aerial Photograph of Third Beach, near La Push, Washington. This beach is beautiful and not too busy, as it is a bit of a hike down through the woods to reach it.
I like this photo because it shows the beach line from near to far, with Teahwhit Head in the distance, and I like the energy of the children and that they give some sense of scale.
Other than adjusting levels and sharpening a bit, this did not require any rotation or cropping, as the camera was pretty level.
Taken by hanging a camera in an AutoKAP rig from my kite string.
The Third Silesian Uprising was the last and largest and longest of the three uprisings.
The Third Silesian Uprising began on May 2–3, 1921, with Polish destruction of German rail bridges in order to thwart immediate German measures to suppress the uprising. A particular concern was to prevent a recurrence of the many acts of violence that had been perpetrated against the populace by German paramilitary groups, the Freikorps, which had ostensibly been created to support the German border-protection police. The Freikorps comprised mostly volunteers and demobilised German soldiers.
After an initial success of the insurgents, taking over a large portion of the area of Upper Silesia, the German Grenzschutz several times resisted the attacks of Wojciech Korfanty's Polish troops, some cases in cooperation with British and Italian troops. An attempt on the part of the British troops to take steps against the Polish forces was prevented by General Jules Gratier, the French commander-in-chief of the Allied troops. Eventually, the insurgents kept most of territory they had won, including the local industrial district. They proved that they could mobilize large amounts local support, while the German forces based outside Silesia were barred from taking an active part in the conflict.
Twelve days after the outbreak of the insurrection Korfanty offered to take his troops behind a line of demarcation (the "Korfanty Line"), conditional upon the released territory not being re-occupied by German forces, but by Allied troops. It was not, however, until July 1 that the British troops arrived in Upper Silesia and began to advance in company with those of the other Allies towards the former frontier. Simultaneously with this advance the 'Inter-Allied Commission' pronounced a general amnesty for the illegal actions committed during the insurrection, with the exception of acts of revenge and cruelty. The German Grenzschutz was withdrawn and disbanded.
King Class 6022 King Edward III heads for Birmingham at Banbury with an express from Paddington on 27 July 1961. The loco had moved from Old Oak Common to Woverhampton Staffor Road (84A) in July 1959 and was withdrawn in September 1962, when services on the GW mainline from Birmingham were dieselised with "Western" locos in 1962. 6022 was scrapped at Cox & Danks (Oldbury). I only missed three KIngs 6008/20/22, all Stafford Road locos.
