The colder autumn nights in Germany coaxes this magnificent eagle, Oropherion, to spend his nights in his heated indoor winter aviary. This is an African Martial Eagle (Polemaetus bellicosus), the largest eagle species native to Africa. (Cr @birdsofprey_nathalie_denolf) #birds #eagle

Took a (very) rainy walk through the Loop tonight. I was absolutely soaked, but my camera stayed dry enough.

Historian of French Revolution here to say the guillotine (named for the physician who invented it) was intentionally designed to be all these things. It was also envisioned as democratizing the death penalty and ending the long tortured spectacle of someone perishing on the gallows.

a major reason why hijackings ended after 9/11 was that passengers no longer had any reason to passively accept them due to fear of death. any hijacking could be a prelude to a suicide attack. so now any hint of unruly passenger doing something out of line leads to his fellows beating him into paste

Hopper painted Railroad Sunset (1929) from memories of American train journeys. It places a stark railroad signal tower against a biblical-scale sunset. The precise geometry and vast sky embody his vision of modernity amid eternal landscapes.
