Yevgeni Oskarovich Paton

The T-34 medium tank was superior to the German Panzer tanks because it had a more powerful cannon, a higher top speed (32 MPH to 25 for the Panzers), the armour was so superior that German shells bounced off it, superior welded construction invented by Academician Paton, and it had a wider track so it did not get bogged down in mud like the German Panzer. The Germans decided that the Ukrainian T-34 tank was so superior to the Panzer that they would have copied it but "Unfortunately for Germany this was not possible. German engineering technology was not up to it, many of the special alloys used in its construction were not available," states Andrew Kershaw in Weapons & War Machines (New York 1976) p. 192.

Everyday I Die

Chinese New Year festivities, The Hague NL, 28 January 2017. Photo: Robert van der Kroft, Olympus Trip 35
Dead-cell Olympus Trip 35 with expired Fujicolor Superia X-TRA 400. Since the selenium cells stopped functioning, the light meter is out. But all in all the results are not too bad, if you don't mind a bit of rustic grain.

The photo was taken during the Chinese New Year festivities in the City Hall Atrium, The Hague, NL, 28 January 2017.

I can't stand Steven Seagal.

Joe says: 'Imagine my delight when I saw him flying to pieces after only half an hour in Executive Decision.'

Thou canst kiss us thou knowest where

‘‘The date we write not for no calendar have we got; the moon is in the sky, the year is in a book, and the day is the same with us here as with thee over there, and thou canst kiss us thou knowest where!’’
