I've actually seen that animal in person. He's very gentle he even allowed me to scratch his head.

His name is Lurch and he lives on an animal rescue farm near Mountain Home, Arkansas.

Got any captions for above? Looks like WWII and a Russian Infantry man.

I think that is a PPSh-41. They made a bunch of those....great in forest fights and close quarters. The Finns got on the bad end of those as did the Germans.

From forgottenweapons.com:
Well, Leszek in Poland has been sending us a bunch of great vintage photos, so I’m not going to have to dip into my own stash for a while:

Yeah, you might not want to let this guy find out about your German heritage. Note the early PPSh-41, the brace of 1895 Nagant revolvers (who knows how many more of those are under the coat), and the hand grenades. Plus what appears to be a belt of 8mm for a ZB-37 – if he didn’t look so twitchy I’d like to ask him what that was for.

Leszek notes that the three middle grenades are early F1 models with particularly tricky and unsafe Kovyeshnikov fuzes.

Welcome to Stalingrad, kraut.

This POS is what the French tried to kill US troops with....the open magazine was great in muddy trenches.

Meanwhile the emperor scorpion (pandinus imperator) has an eight-inches-long body, this is one of the largest scorpions in the world - a species from India is reputedly slightly longer.

The Atomium is a monument in Brussels, originally built for Expo '58, the 1958 Brussels World's Fair. Designed by André Waterkeyn, it stands 102 metres (335 ft) tall. It has nine steel spheres connected so that the whole forms the shape of a unit cell of an iron crystal magnified 165 billion times.
