A soldier holds a pair of Lativion jump wings to be given to soldiers from the foreign jumpmasters after their descent into Sicily Drop Zone on Fort Bragg, N.C. Dec. 8, 2012. ‘Jump day’ is the second of two days in the 17th Annual Randy Oler Memorial Operation Toy Drop. The airborne operation is hosted by U.S. Army Civil Affairs & Psychological Operations Command (Airborne), on Dec. 6, 2014 at Luzon Drop Zone at Fort Bragg, N.C. Operation Toy Drop is the world’s largest combined airborne operation and allows Soldiers the opportunity to help a less fortunate child in the Sandhill region to receive toys for the holidays.

Given my local force had/still has a decent complement of Ford Mondeo dog cars, I went in with this shot under the assumption this Met Mondeo might too be a dog car, but further inspection proves that, interestingly enough, it isn't. By all accounts, with the 'ANPR fitted' notice in the window being a clear indication, this is allocated to the Met's Roads Policing division, and looks quite smart under said role. A check of checkhistory.uk shows that the Met let go of this back in December last year, disposing it to another owner following an MOT that clocked it at 101,426 miles. So, quite a decently long life by traffic car standards!
Possibly the last photo of this on Flickr, given how no-one seems to have had this since late 2022, the Metropolitan Police's KZD, a 2019 Ford Mondeo estate traffic car, is seen crossing Westminster Bridge while on routine roads policing patrols.

Given the missing piece at about the 11 o'clock position, appears that one of my animals as tried for a bit of a snack
Given the reputation that Crib Goch holds in terms of fatalities every year and just how hard it is to make it across the ridge I thought this represented a softer way to look at it.
...Tussi - I guess I'm forgiven for given her ear-drops now ;)
and she doesn't scratch her ears that much anymore so that's good.
Reason why I put this photo in my Tussi Fav set;
Her eyes are sharp and clear, the white to the left of her nose isn't overexposed (as it usually does outdoors), the background has a nice blur or bokeh.
On this day in history in 2013 - Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Act Gains Royal Assent in England and Wales
The House of Lords had given the bill its third reading on July 15th, and passed it without division, and The Commons approved the various amendments the next day. For same sex couples the right to a marriage rather than a civil partnership was brought tantalisingly close by the royal assent. Sections 15, 16 and 21 came into force on the day the Act received Royal Assent, the remaining, substantive provisions of the Act were brought into force by statutory instruments made by the Secretary of State. The Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Act 2013 (Commencement No. 4) Order 2014 brought into force all remaining provisions of the Act on the 10th December 2014, those including the provisions which allow for couples in a civil partnership to convert their civil partnership into a marriage (section 9) and for individuals in a marriage or a civil partnership to change their gender without first needing to divorce or dissolve the civil partnership (section 12 and schedule 5).
David Cameron ’s backing of the legislation was seen by some as a cynical part of his drive to end the view of the Conservatives as ‘the nasty party. His simple statement that as marriage was a good thing it should be available for all seemed sincere. Others had already acted in the same direction: the Quakers for example in 2009 voted to recognize same sex marriage and to perform such weddings
Civil partnership had become legal in 2004, allowing same-sex couples and couples of whom one spouse had changed gender to live in legally recognised intimate partnerships similar to marriage, but without permitting them to marry, or describe themselves as married. It also compelled couples to end their marriage if one or both spouses underwent gender change surgery, or if the couple were not recognised in law as having male and female gender.
Sometimes equality is not about fighting so you can have the same rights as others. Sometimes it is about fighting for others to have the same rights as you.
Holy Trinity at Preston Wynne is a little unusual, an 18th century building given a very thorough Victorian makeover and rather remotely situated in the middle of a field with no direct access by road, in fact the only way through to it is via adjacent gated fields full of livestock, which must make holding services here a bit of a challenge (let alone weddings and funerals!).
Approaching from the west the slim, pinnacled tower still suggests this quirky little building remains in its Georgian form, but a glance at the body of the church (a single chamber with nave and chancel as a structurally unified block) at once makes it clear that this church has been much altered since. The building had become severely dilapidated by the mid-19th century and thus restoration was inevitable, however the prevailing taste of the time thought little of buildings in this style and thus it was radically 'gothicised' so that in all essences aside from the tower this appears to be a Victorian Gothic building, though owing to the proportions and the oddly reduced windows an extremely unconvincing one (looking carefully at the south wall it is possible to make out the change of masonry filling what would have been four much larger round-headed windows which would have flooded the interior with light).
The interior beyond the porch under the tower is entirely of the 1858 restoration, new windows, new roof, new furnishings, a simple space which betrays nothing of its previous state. It is still a very 'low church' space, with little in the way of ornamentation beyond the stencilled texts around the otherwise plain windows. Not a church to detain the visitor for long, a place to reflect in rather than explore.
However I won't forget this church in a hurry. Reaching it across that field was quite a hair-raising experience, owing to the herd of cows that followed my every footstep over to it, to the sound of heavy thuds immediately behind me and the bull almost breathing down my neck all the way (a bit like being stalked by the mascot from Bullseye!). My exit strategy across a different field where a footpath was indicated also ran into trouble when it eventually ended up at a gate that was tied shut, which took me so long to carefully undo and re-tie that I ended up stuck for a while in the midst of yet another herd of the big beasts!
There were some entertaining comments in the visitors book there from people who'd had similar bovine encounters, but anyone wary of being surrounded by cows should maybe give this one a miss!

Germany has somewhat fewer war memorials than one might expect. The politics are a bit . . . complicated . . . given its role as losing aggressor in the two most recent major hostilities it incited. But there are other memorials to be found, such as the Kriegerdenkmal Köpfleinsberg. Perched on a gap between buildings at the top of the Köpfleinsberg hill between Adlerstraße and Kaiserstraße, the sharply descending latter street opens up a perfect view of the Kaiserburg to the north.
Felicitously, just as I trotted past on my penultimate day in the city, the sun peeked out of the otherwise grey sky, opening up a streak of cerulean blue behind the castle, and lighting up the gilt implements on the monument above: Nike (Greek) or Victoria (Roman), as usual, goddess of victory -- I have always thought it odd that so many memorials to the defeated feature her presence. Nike/Victoria brandishes high the golden laurel crown of the champion, herself wearing the laurels as their incarnation, and holding to her side a set of golden imperial regalia: the crown of the Holy Roman Emperor and the double-headed black eagle on a gleaming golden shield.
Here, however, the laurels of the victor are wholly sound, for the whole Victory Column and sculpture (the bronze by Friedrich Wanderer) was erected for the dead of the Franco-Prussian War, in which the Deutschland very much beat the French into submission and walked off with some door prizes like the Alsace-Lorraine (or should I say, Elsaß-Lothringen), not the mention uinified the Germanic peoples for once and all. Since then, several more placards have been added for wars in Germany's colonies: the Boxer Rebellion and German South-West Africa, which is now Namibia. In 1998, a final placard was added seemingly questioning the worth of war itself as an instrument of policy ("War: what is it good for?," perhaps?), which I suppose makes it an odd monument to victory after all.
The first building of the Huguenot Seminary, which was opened in 1874, was given as a memorial to the Huguenots who settled in South Africa. The buildings erected since then have been largely the gifts of friends in this and other lands. The College building was finished in 1897. The object of the whole institution is to give a Christian education and training to the daughters of South Africa. The course of study begins with the Kindergarten and is continued to the B.A. degree. There is also a Normal Department, and special classes preparing for Mission work. Four branch Huguenot Seminaries have been opened in the Colony, Free State, Natal and Transvaal. The Seminary at Wellington has sent out more than 600 teachers, and more than 50 missionaries in the last ten tears have gone to the Diamond Fields of Kimberley, The Gold Fields of Johannesburg, Mashonaland, Zambesi, and Lake Nyassa.
Founded by Dr Andrew Murray in 1874, the Huguenot Seminary was the first institution of its kind for girls in South Africa. It was modelled on the lines of Mount Holyoke, Massachusetts, USA. Its marked religious character served to commemorate the Huguenots.The Huguenot Seminary established Wellington as an important centre of education and gave rise to a succession of educational institutions where girls and women were also accommodated. In 1896 a Training College for teachers was established, in 1899 the Huguenot College (from 1920 until 1950, Huguenot University College), and in 1899 the Huguenot Girls' High School. The Teachers' Training College now goes by the name of the Boland College of Education. The University College reverted to its original name of Huguenot College in 1951 and trains social workers, youth workers and mission workers. The Huguenot Girls' High School merged with the Boys' School in 1954 and is now known as the Huguenot High School.
On the way up I had come to a junction and took a path which looked easier. It wasn't. It was a scrambling nightmare over wet and slippery rocks - more climb in parts than walk. Down below the other path sat, its easy steps taunting me.
And then, with just a little to go to Stickle Tarn the weather turned. I was stuck - getting back down on the scramble path would be a nightmare. Going up would be a nightmare.
Feeling out of my depth and lugging a heavy rucksack that didn't make scrambling easy I decided down was the more sensible option. It took me absolutely ages, constantly under (probably rather paranoid) fear of slipping. When I arrived back at the safety of this well made path, I was feeling a bit of a wreck.
A migrating whinchat near the Rio Celamin at the north end of La Janda. This is probably a juvenile rather than a female, given the spotting on the upper-breast.

Depuis octobre 2007, cette sculpture est installée au pied de la tour Opus 12 après avoir été exposée sur le Parvis de La Défense. Offerte à l’Epad par l’artiste, elle exhale une force et un équilibre qui surprennent le visiteur. La douceur des formes pures s’intègre sur le Parvis avec une évidence troublante, ouvrant un dialogue avec les éléments environnants.
Ambassadeur émérite de la sculpture coréenne, encore peu connue en France, Lim Dong-Lak est Professeur aux Beaux-Arts en Corée du Sud.
Possédant une vraie singularité, il exprime sa vision du monde à travers ses sculptures, oeuvres intemporelles donnant une impression de plénitude et d’harmonie pour lesquelles il utilise différents matériaux : marbre, pierre, bronze, métal, sans oublier l’inox qu’il affectionne particulièrement… Ces matières raffinées sont les bases de son imaginaire qu’il mêle à ses observations quotidiennes.
Classique dans ses références et avant-gardiste par sa conception, Lim Dong-Lak instaure une subtile osmose entre les personnes et les lieux.
Since October, 2007, this sculpture is installed at the foot of the tower Opus 12 having been displayed on the Square of Defence. Given to Epad by the artist, she exhales a force and a balance who surprise the visitor. The softness of pure forms integrates on the Square with a disturbing obviousness, opening a dialogue with the ambient elements.
Outstanding ambassador of the Korean sculpture, still not much known in France, Lim Dong-Lak is Professor in Fine arts in South Korea.
Having a true singularity, he expresses his vision of the world across his sculptures, timeless writings giving an impression of fullness and of harmony for which he uses different materials: marble, stone, bronze, metal, without forgetting the stainless steel that he is particularly very fond of These refined subjects are the bases of its imagination which he blends with his daily observations.
Classic in its references and avant-gardist by its conception, Lim Dong-Lak institutes a subtle osmosis between the persons and places.

Query by Steve Hennessey:
I have just completed re-reading "Man-eaters and Jungle Killers" for the umpteenth time. In the story of "The Great Panther of Mudiyanoor" there is a reference to Kenneth Anderson's 'lucky Tiger charm' given to him by a jungle man named Budhia. I am curious about this, and my questions are - does anyone know what was in this charm? Or how it was constructed? And where is it now?
If this has been discussed in a previous post then I apologies, but would appreciate some enlightenment.
I decided to take advantage of the break in the rainy weather today and take my new toy for a test drive with one of my walk around lenses (since I haven't been out for at least a month). I chose to walk over to Stanley Park instead of driving somewhere else...as it is so close and convenient. Given that the light was a bit dark in the surrounding forest area I decided to try out the higher ISO capabilities. I went to Lost Lagoon and then over to Beaver Lake and back. There was a lot of bird action today...there must have been a few dozen Chestnut-Backed Chickadee's around Beaver Lake as I walked around it. I decided to stop for a second a lift up my hand into the air...within seconds a 1/2 dozen CnB Chickadees surrounded me with one landing on my finger inspecting my hand for signs of food...then quickly relocated to the bush right next to me. I had a very awesome time as I continued to walk down the path and back home.
Oh yes, these photo's are as out of camera except for a bit of color correction in PS. Only Chroma noise reduction inside PS also.
Anyway, back to my new tool of art in hand!!!
When I found out Nikon was updating the D4 with the D4s I decided it was time to get another toy with faster FPS for action photography to complement my D800. I was originally going to get the D4 but the announcement of the D4s became the logical choice. I ended up putting my deposit down a day after the Official announcement and was told I was first in line...Sweet!!! I then got the call from the camera store the day after Nikon started shipping...that my camera had arrived. So March 7 I went and picked it up and waited for the rain to finally stop...which was today. Feeling very stoked!!!! All I can say is...WOW!!!! Speechless as to what Nikon has done with this camera. I can't wait to take it out with my beast of a lens...400 2.8....its light gathering capabilities is second to none...and will probably will be no comparison next to my walk around lenses.
The Carter Harrison Award is given for bravery to Chicago Firefighters and to Chicago Policemen. The Police get the award one year and the Firefighters the next
**** New ****Mayor Carter Harrison was shot to death in his home at 231 Ashland on October 28, 1893 by Eugene J. Pendergast. Pendergast was hanged on July 13, 1894 in the rear yard of the County jail. The jail is behind the rear wall of Engine 42. and the gallows was where the apparatus floor of Engine 42 is now. I wonder if the firemen ever hear strange nosies at night

This is a walk made in the autumn of 2018, 32 years AFTER the murder of prime minister Olof Palme of Sweden. It follows his path that fatal evening. People in the streets have, of course, nothing to do with the case. The murder remains unsolved and has given rise to conspiracy theories.
Stockholm[a] is the capital of Sweden and the most populous city in the Nordic countries;[9][b] 952,058 people live in the municipality,[10] approximately 1.5 million in the urban area,[5] and 2.3 million in the metropolitan area.[11] The city stretches across fourteen islands where Lake Mälaren flows into the Baltic Sea. Just outside the city and along the coast is the island chain of the Stockholm archipelago. The area has been settled since the Stone Age, in the 6th millennium BC, and was founded as a city in 1252 by Swedish statesman Birger Jarl. It is also the capital of Stockholm County. Stockholm is the only capital in the world with a national urban park.[12]
Stockholm is the cultural, media, political, and economic centre of Sweden. The Stockholm region alone accounts for over a third of the country's GDP,[13] and is among the top 10 regions in Europe by GDP per capita.[14] It is an important global city,[15][16] and the main centre for corporate headquarters in the Nordic region.[17] The city is home to some of Europe's top ranking universities, such as the Stockholm School of Economics, Karolinska Institute and Royal Institute of Technology (KTH).[18][19] It hosts the annual Nobel Prize ceremonies and banquet at the Stockholm Concert Hall and Stockholm City Hall. One of the city's most prized museums, the Vasa Museum, is the most visited non-art museum in Scandinavia.[20][21] The Stockholm metro, opened in 1950, is well known for the decor of its stations; it has been called the longest art gallery in the world.[22][23][24] Sweden's national football arena is located north of the city centre, in Solna. Ericsson Globe, the national indoor arena, is in the southern part of the city. The city was the host of the 1912 Summer Olympics, and hosted the equestrian portion of the 1956 Summer Olympics otherwise held in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
Stockholm is the seat of the Swedish government and most of its agencies,[25] including the highest courts in the judiciary,[26][27] and the official residencies of the Swedish monarch and the Prime Minister. The government has its seat in the Rosenbad building, the Riksdag (Swedish parliament) is seated in the Parliament House, and the Prime Minister's residence is adjacent at the Sager House.[28][29][30] The Stockholm Palace is the official residence and principal workplace of the Swedish monarch, while the Drottningholm Palace, a World Heritage Site on the outskirts of Stockholm, serves as the Royal Family's private residence
