The Flint Hills Scenic Byway, Kansas


October 1 and the end of the Haggis hunting season. This never before documented image shows Nessie ferrying a lone survivor across Loch Ness, where it will spend the winter foraging for Tunnocks tea cakes and drinking single malt. The haggis will return again next season to look for a mate and bear a litter of baby haggii, thus ensuring future generations can flourish in the wild.

This massive Cornish pump was installed at the Ontario mine at Park City, Utah starting in late 1881. It took thirty Union Pacific freight cars to transport the parts to the mine. Some of the castings weighed ten tons. Assembling the pump at the mine took nearly two years, and was completed late in 1883. A USGS report described the pump:
The flywheel was 30 feet in diameter and weighed 70 tons. The pumps were 20 inches in diameter, had a 10-foot stroke, and were capable of throwing 320 gallons of water at each stroke. The pump rod, of Oregon pine, was 1,060 feet long and 16 inches square, and its several sections were united by iron strapping plates 1 by 10 and 1 by 12 inches 30 feet long, The pump lifted 2,560 gallons a minute, 153,600 gallons an hour, or 3,686,400 gallons a day from the 1,000-foot level to the drain tunnel on the 600-foot level.
