  • The Kuwait Oil Company firefighting team dispatched to southern Iraq extinguished their first oil well fire in Iraq's Rumaila field. The wells were set on fire with explosives by retreating Iraqi troops when the US and UK invasion began. Seven or eight wells were set ablaze. Here the ground is still smoking and oil boiling as the well still spurts some oil. The Rumaila field is one of Iraq's biggest oil fields with five billion barrels in reserve. Rumaila is also spelled Rumeilah.

  • Corey Wilson and John Wilson, members of the Dinosaur Cove excavation team, drill holes in the working face of the mine to allow explosives to be placed. The explosives are used to dislodge large pieces of rock, which are then removed and checked for fossil remains. Dinosaur Cove is the world's first mine developed specifically for paleontology, normally the scientists rely on commercial mining to make the excavations. The site is of particular interest as the fossils found date from about 100 million years ago, when Australia was much closer to the South Pole than today. MODEL RELEASED [1989].

  • A man rakes muck out of open sewer outside microloan beneficiary Roseline Amondi's small restaurant in the Kibera slum, Nairobi, Kenya. (Roseline Amondi is featured in the book What I Eat: Around the World in 80 Diets.) The raking of muck raises the level of the street over time.  Trash is also burned in the dirt street, as the streets and alley are too narrow for garbage collection, and even fire engines, raising the risk of huge slum fires. Kibera is Africa's biggest slum with nearly one million inhabitants.

  • Asensia and Carmen Huaman cook tanyo kuro worms in a clay pot over a fire in the family's kitchen while guinea pigs (cuy), also a food source for these Peruvians, feed on the muddy floor. Asensia says her family always eats worms with parch corn. This is corn that dries completely on the stalk before harvesting. It's heated on the fire until its kernels plump up slightly. This makes a nutritionally sound combination: Corn and worms each lack essential amino acids, but together they provide a balanced meal. Chicón, Peru. (Man Eating Bugs page 152,153)
