Testing The Bulletproof Vest
Testing the first bulletproof vests essentially required men to take turns shooting each other in the chest. This harrowing experiment naturally required an extraordinary amount of faith in these vests, and trust in the gunman's aim. Seen here are members of the Protective Garment Corporation of New York, demonstrating the efficacy of a light vest intended for police, in Washington, D.C. in 1923.

In the westernmost banner of Inner Mongolia, in the middle of the Gobi Desert, there once stood a prosperous kingdom. It was a center of religious learning, of art and a trading hub.
According to one of the many Mongolian legends, the first descendants of the gods built Khara-Khoto, a beautiful and rich city, which housed sages, merchants, brave soldiers and skilled craftsmen.
Khara-Khoto means "black city". It was a Medieval Tangut fortress on the Silk Road, built in 1032 near Juyan Lake Basin.
The remains show 9.1 m-high ramparts and 3.7 m-thick outer walls.
It became a centre of Western Xia trade in the 11th century.
In The Travels of Marco Polo, Marco Polo described a visit to a city called Etzina or Edzina, which was identified with Khara-Khoto.
The walled fortress was first taken by Genghis Khan in 1226. It continued to flourish under the Mongols and during Kublai Khan's time it was expanded.
After 1372 it was abandoned.
