a few drinks: Arkhi is distilled milk popular in Mongolia and other similar countries, then a pumpkin whisky and the well known snake wine

Arkhi, yak milk vodka. I was able to try it once at the home of one of my former colleagues from Kazakhstan. The taste takes some getting used to. It tastes slightly like rancid butter or yogurt that is no longer really fresh.
 
Used for the first bombing raids in history (1911), and also on Paris in 1914.
It was when an Italian pilot dropped the world's first aerial bomb. It happened Nov. 1, 1911 during the war between the Ottoman Empire and the Kingdom of Italy. Liutenant Giulio Gavotti flew over Libya on a Taube monoplane and as he approached a Turkish camp at Ain Zara on the outskirts of modern-day Tripoli and he tossed over four grenades.

here people gather to see a German 'Taube' aircraft, on display at Les Invalides, Paris, during First World War:

I just looked it up. Apparently it's a swing churn for making butter. Made by the Vermont Farm Machine Company in the 1870s.
I thought that might be the case, as I've always associated the word churn with making butter. My grandmother actually had an old butter churn that she had used at one time, but it was much different than this one.
