The U.S. Army M1200 Guardian ASV, or Armored Knight, is a laser wheeled vehicle with indirect artillery and munitions laser guidance capabilities.
The realistic sight visuals, seen here, are one of the myriad of improvements. The rollout was conducted during the 3rd Squadron, 108th Cavalry Regiment, 560th Battlefield Surveillance Brigade’s annual training at Ft. Stewart, Ga. and was preceded by two weeks of intensive maintenance and operational classroom instruction.

The Sound for Sight audience will be taken on a spectacular sensory experience during the show that has been carefully curated by Sound for Sight Founder, Laura Westcott and âMo Pleasureâ the former Music Director of Earth, Wind & Fire.

Hello !
Once, upon a time, there was a Troll who was very naughty, it was such a bad thing it cannot be told here else, well...so I punish him by saying to my Wizard Trolls, "Re-make/re-model him in the semblance of Simon Dee, so that all shall shun him and until he repents he shall be as Simon Dee, OK !"
But he comes out looking like Tony Blair, also smelling like Tony Blair. Close enough.
So, he goes about frightening children, he does cry "My father in law was a randy scouse git and in porn movies !" and "Let's play at being prime ministers, me baggsies first..." and he is not any fun at all.
And so it is that the Batman is out wearing his best braces. "Gawd, luvvaduck !" he exclaims "What is that smell, oh it's Tony Blair..." before moving on swiftly.
"Well !" says TonyBlairTroll. "No-one AT ALL will play with me...I'd better have a huff..."
A tear ! A-ha ! It could be....
Walk Tall !

Another photo of the Sandhills gleaning a corn field. So happy I brought my camera and was able to capture these beautiful birds.
Thank you for your comments and faves.
In a previous set of images, I showcased the impressive turret the group of Lasioglossum bees had built to protect their nesting burrow. Sadly, that has washed away in the heavy rains. I found the bees grasping onto grass stems in an attempt to keep above the boggy soil below.
For my friends overseas who are unaware, a very serious flood has heavily impacted my state (New South Wales). Because we have experienced a La Nina event, we have had a relentlessly wet summer and the soil is absolutely saturated. So when a “rain bomb” developed a few days ago and dropped its guts on the state, we could not cope. Our major dams have overflowed, big rivers have burst their banks and scores of homes have been flooded or washed away, along with livestock and businesses. It has been devastating. We are lucky in that our house is in the middle of the Blue Mountains, meaning we are high enough not be flooded and low enough not to be pelted by the winds and fallen trees. Still, my front yard has turned into a bog. Today the rain lightened enough for me to go outside and check on a few nesting holes and burrows of my beloved bees, and to my great sadness, they have lost their homes, too. The bees have evacuated their holes and are clinging to wet grass stems and the branches of the small shrubs we have planted recently in the garden. The poor things are cold, bedraggled and very sorry-looking. My partner moved our outdoor glass tables over the biggest concentration of bees we could find in the lawn to provide some shelter, and we put out a flat, small plate of sugar water for them, raised 30cm above the grass. I am so, so sad to see this. It really breaks my heart. :(

FALLUJAH, IRAQ - November 10: Lance Corp. Jason Canellis (Vandera, TX), sights in from a rooftop on the main highway through Fallujah, as US Marines of the 1st Light Armored Reconnaissance (LAR) company, part of 1st Battalion 3rd Marines, search houses for insurgents in Fallujah on November 10, 2004. US commanders hope that seizing control of the insurgent nerve center of Fallujah before January elections in Iraq will decapitate the anti-US rebellion across the country.

This heritage walk in old Delhi includes sampling some of the street food. We started our walking tour at one of the biggest and most popular mosques in Asia, Jama Masjid. It was built in mid-seventeenth century by the Mughal Emperor Shahjahan. It is built on a hillock, high above rest of the ground & gives an excellent view of the surrounding busy market streets. The trail follows the main street of Chawri Bazaar. The first food stop on this walking tour is Jain Coffee House in Raghuganj grain market. This shop sells fruit sandwiches: of pineapple topped with pomegranate seeds; of cheeku with butter, mango with thinly sliced grapes & many more. The sandwiches not only taste great but are a treat for the eyes too. The differently coloured fruits make a tempting sight to look at. And the sandwiches go best with cold coffee or a fruit shake. A personal favourite is the samosa sandwich. Samosa is fried patty filled with boiled potatoes, peas & spices. We negotiated our way out of Raghuganj through a extremely narrow lane, back on to Chawri Bazaar. The next stop was a century old chaat shop- Hira Lal Chaat Bhandar. Delicious aalu chat and mind blowing kulle are the specialty here. Kulle are almost like cup cakes: the base is made of different fruits or vegetables like sweet potato, watermelon, orange, potato, cucumber & even banana, apple & mango. They are then topped with gram, pomegranate & a dash of lemon & spices. From here we visited gem of a monument, which few people would know of. There is hardly any information on Ruknuddaulah mosque. It was built during the time of Akbar Shah, the Mughal Emperor & is one of the prettiest mosques in Delhi. Further on, stands the Hauz Qazi mosque or Haji Qazi mosque. It is in bad shape today, its narrow entrance hidden behind shops in the busy old Delhi market. Hauz is a tank and Qazi is Muslim law giver. It is an active mosque built almost 300 years. Our next food stop was Daulat ki Chaat, a stark contrast to earlier spicy experience. This is a particular delicacy found prominently in this part of Old Delhi. The right proportion of milk, cream and butter with saffron flavoring makes it so soft and fluffy that it melts in mouth. At this point we left Chawri Bazaar to walk into Sita Ram Bazaar and then entered Kucha Pati Ram. Then was the halt at Kuremal Kulfi Wala which surprises its guests with mind boggling variety of fruit kulfis (ice creams). Name a fruit and they are ready to serve its kulfi for you! The final stop on our walking tour was a 19th century haveli which has been recently restored.
