Move Over Maverick, Here Comes mAverIck - AI Flies Actual USAF F16 Fighter Jet - IMRAN™ It's not secret that I have a fanatic love of flying, aviation, the air force, fighter jets, the F16, and the Top Gun movies, especially Maverick. Tom Cruise may be thinking of a third (final chapter?) of the incredible movie and even better sequel. But, this news item today suggests it may be time for MAVERICK to move over and make space for mAverIck. With the latest advances in AI, Artificial Intelligence is now actually moving from simulators to flying the actual F16 fighter jet. "DARPA AI Algorithms Transition from Simulator to Flying Modified F-16"...

Thought For Food: Sometimes All You Want Is A Juicy Beef Burger In Your Castle - IMRAN™ Every man’s home is his castle where he is king. I live in a White House.

UrUXSux - Amazon Notifications Of Tyson Chicken Recall 2021 Received Today, TWO Years Later! - IMRAN™ **DANGER: Avoid Tyson Foods Especially From Amazon** There are late notifications and then there are Amazon's version of Safety Recall Notifications of a somewhat urgent nature.... FOOD SAFETY RECALL. I just got notifications, on 22 February, 2023, of TWO separate product recalls for Tyson Chicken,.... purchased TWO YEARS AGO, February 7, 2021 and February 28, 2021. Even the date of the Tyson recall (July 5, 2021) is a scary FIVE months after the food was bought and consumed. But Amazon's notification is literally 2 YEARS late.

German Shepherds Leap Off 8 Feet Dock With 8 Paws For Duck Chase & Tampa Bay Wading - IMRAN™
German Shepherds Leap Off 8 Feet Dock With 8 Paws For Duck Chase & Tampa Bay Wading - IMRAN™
At very low tide I get an extended private beach on Tampa Bay at Apollo Beach. Kennedy & K2 had been patiently watching the pair of ducks bathing at the back of the home from the other side of the home, when we returned from a morning walk, and now dockside.
My dock is more than 8 feet above the sand. It’s quite a drop, which would break me if I did it. The German Shepherds looked at each other, as if to say, “Shall we?”
Before I could get my iPhone recording, they both leapt & landed eight feet on the sand below, and off they went. Talk about “jump(running)start”!
The ducks had not expected that bold move. It took them a moment to scamper to deeper water. Kennedy & K2 didn’t care. They weren’t really “hunting”. They just got into running and wading in cold Tampa Bay waters as was their primary interest.

Please Partake Pretty Pink Pastels Perfect Personal Paradise Phone Pano Presentation - IMRAN™
Please Partake Pretty Pink Pastels Perfect Personal Paradise Phone Pano Presentation - IMRAN™
Just take a deep breath and walk with my dogs and me to my dock. Come with me and savor last evening’s perfect pink and blue pastel shades spanning the sky at Apollo Beach on Tampa Bay. Soak in the sweet magic of nature you’ll love being covered in.
Facebook shows full sphere panorama pictures but it doesn’t display my fun 360x360 videos. So I’m sharing the flat vertical view by key framing the best parts of the full view. It was tranquil but you can hear some wind.

God's Million Painting In One Sunset Tampa Bay (Timelapse Music Video) - IMRAN™
God's Million Painting In One Sunset Tampa Bay (Timelapse Music Video) - IMRAN™
**Please enjoy on the largest screen you can see it on, with audio.**
Each sunset photo I have ever posted of Tampa Bay Florida sunsets, I often called them paintings by God. Well, this 30-seconds music video Nikon D850 timelapse of a 90-minutes sunset & dusk will show you a million paintings and colors.
Both the original music clip created for this video and the video itself are by yours truly - but the miracles are all by the Almighty God to whom I bow my head in prayer and gratitude five times a day, especially at Maghreb as the sun sets.

Dockside Dramatic Day Dusk Dolphins Delight Dogs - IMRAN™
Dockside Dramatic Day Dusk Dolphins Delight Dogs - IMRAN™
Come join me and soak in sea, sunset, Sunday, scenery AND dockside dramatic day dusk dolphins delight dogs, all in a few minutes livestream1 Like, love, comment, and share. Watch especially at the 3:00 minutes mark.
So, here is what happened. Kennedy and K2, my German Shepherd Dogs, were excitedly waiting to go for a walk after eating. Usually they like to go to the dock AFTER the walk, but even though I did not hear any telltale sounds of dolphins nearby, they both raced first to the dock. Kennedy's barking told me dolphins were indeed there. I managed to get to the dock, and sure enough, the day, the dusk, the dolphins, and the dogs did not disappoint.
Enjoy!

Symphony Isles Holiday Lights DriveBy 3X Music Video - IMRAN™
Symphony Isles Holiday Lights DriveBy 3X Music Video - IMRAN™
I am blessed to live in Symphony Isles, a popular neighborhood in Apollo Beach, Florida. Every year the board and various committees, plus individual homeowners, do a great job of holiday decorations.
One night every year the guards open the main gates to the town and all are welcome to drive by to enjoy the lights. Even without any traffic it took me 30-minutes of driving to go past every home.
Enjoy this 3X accelerated hyper-lapse of the drive. If I made it faster, e.g. 400%, then the lights pass by too fast. Even at 3X speed it is easy to miss the detail. But if I did not speed it up, few would have the time to watch the whole thing. So, hopefully this is an optimal balance of speed and duration.
I had wanted to compose an original soundtrack to go with the video but then it may not get done for a long time. So I used one of my existing music tracks, actually one I created for drone flight at Old Inn at Little Harbor about 4 year ago. "Big Sky At Little Harbor" is the tune, and the video is pretty awesome. You will love that too.
Meanwhile, come along for a "high speed" drive (without breaking 20 mph speed limits!) with me and enjoy the sights and lights.
