There are now numerous videos of Ukrainians being press-ganged on the street and in their homes, and being conscripted into the army.

Plenty of high G flying, but some degree of less than stellar design, in my opinion. There was a small aluminum panel on the vertical stab that fell off so often we kept the replacements and a FO report form for it in the tool crib!

Extremely loyal to his band mates, its a shame they stuck it in his eye. He's a ron paul guy though. Its a shame he didn't see the trap he was walking into.

That is pretty much it, yes. Stuff works because it works, the heroes are heroic the villains are (mostly) villainous, and chicks wear form-fitting jumpsuit. Although I must say that IJN Yamato would be the right size to be a space-going battleship. Somehow they never got around to the space battleships Alabama, New Jersey, and Massachusetts, plus space carrier Midway. Must've been an oversight.

McDonnell-Douglas decided that their upgrade of the YF-17 was going to have them to. So the initial F/A-18s had them until everyone realized they were unneeded.
Then the LEX vent generated vortices were found to cause the twin tails to wag like a hyperactive chihuahua. So they added stiffener plates to the tails. And when that didn't fix things they filled in the vents.
Great design work McDonnell-Douglas.

Chiran kamikaze museum (outside Kagoshima)
Tachiarai museum (airbase outside Fukuoka)
Several more to hit, including the naval kamikaze museum (on base) at Kanoya, and the kaiten museum/base in Yamaguchi prefecture. Eta Jima (former naval academy) near Kure also very good.

It's that Mount Stupid (Dunning-Kruger effect) thang ... a little knowledge is a dangerous thing.
But there are some that can wake up, that are just mildly lost in the maelstrom of lies. Bill Maher gives hints of some awareness, yet he ends his rant with "for years I tried to expose those ignorant conservatives for not believing in Climate Change, now I have the liberals going crazy".
No Bill you ignorant slut, you are also wrong on "climate change". He is still in his cult, but he sees problems.

When they introduced them they claimed you couldn't get COVID if you just took the original double tap. And that was the nominal basis for every clot shot mandate - that with the shot you couldn't spread it, without the shot you would.
And we know that was not just wrong but an intentional lie.
Now the claim is it "prevents severe COVID". The data says THE OPPOSITE.

The official state dept response is the story is not accurate. Note they didn't say it was a fabrication.
Note I have no insight into if the story is true, partial true, or completely made up.
It paints both the US and Russia in a bad light, the former since we are just throwing away Uke lives for nothing and the latter since the Russians have claimed they don't want to take the whole of Ukraine.

Two eastern oblasts, obviously - biting off those two more in the south, which were never subject to Russian rhetoric, claims, or diplomatic efforts prior to 2/24/22 - that seemed like an expansion of territorial goals to me, and a puzzling mistaken one, but whatever.
Fun fact: in the years of the "Minsk process", Moscow maintained that Donetsk and Lugansk were and would remain Ukrainian territory, that was there position. There's a popular/nationalist/tribal imperative to protecting Russian-speakers perceived as victims of persecution, there's always been a lot of leadership ambivalence about formal annexation. Until a year ago.

Shift in prices, shift in credentials, shift in pay.
Watch your doctor go away.
We now have PA's (physician assistants) , APN's (nurse practitioners), primary Dr.s, and specialists. PA's can diagnose and prescribe under the authority of a Dr.. APN's can do same, even write class II scripts, but in many cases or states it is not necessary for them to work under the authority of a Dr.
What's the shift?
Primary physicians will disappear, being replaced by APN's and the PA's will move up the pecking order behind the APN's. Why? Money.
Socialized Medicine Lite. Primary Physicians have a broad range of study and a focused (mine specialized in hypertension and related chemistry, fancy that) field of study. Along with that they have liability, and operating costs; APN's and PA's won't have that nor will they have the wealth of knowledge a primary physician has. If they are good they will have the basics down pat. - narrow and focused -

How do you get good, clean samples for control groups for this? Previous infection history would be unknowable, since most infections are asymptomatic and anti-body evidence is temporary. So I've never understood how the comparison leading to such an inference could even be done.
Of course I haven't checked with the useful independent sources on such things, but I looked around a bit a few times - nothing on it at all.

These anthems hark back to a bold past, to the heart of the previous century, which is when I was born and raised, every morning swearing allegiance to the republic for which it stands, and knowing what every word meant even when very young. A sacred oath.

The (very cute, naturally) clerk at the airport currency exchange booth, where I always picked up some yen for the bus trip to town, apologized (!) and looked slightly mortified when pointing to the (pathetic) amount of yen my $200 would get me. Apologizing for an exchange rate - awesome.
I said "oh no, that's very much OUR fault, no problem!".

Exchange rate was hovering between 260-280 yen/dollar; rent for 1bd, approx 500sq. ft., was 34,000 yen/month. There was a built-in kerosene heater, 3-burner propane stove, furniture included, western-style toilet, about 3 kitchen cabinets and zero counter space. The tiny (maybe 2x3ft) kitchen table was my prep area.
All in all, not bad for a broke couple-- at that exchange rate, in the early 80s

Our cops are also pretty good guys. Not a lot of conflict here.

'Salmon' is an actual color; it has a meaning, a definition we can all envision. Unlike 'ecru' or 'mauve' or 'puce', all of which have NO real-world visual example.

But what color is it? Someone says 'salmon colored' and you immediately perceive (perhaps a range of) a color.
Close enough, really.

Farmed salmon has astaxanthin added to the diet so that the fish develop their characteristic color.
Astaxanthin derived from algae can sell for up to $1 million per kilo.

Salmon was actually a kitchen cabinet color years ago, like before I was born. I ripped out a few kitchens in that color. One was interesting, it had salmon color doors, but blue boxes. I think they were from the 50s and were in amazing shape, so we installed them in her basement.

I have just run across the most obfuscated, convoluted, overly complicated thing I've ever encountered. I've been playing around with writing some programs to tell me what time it is. All the times.
As with most such things, the basic idea is simple, it's just the details, edge cases, and user interface that makes it complex. And so the question "what happens" if DST changes while the program is running? It should note that and handle it gracefully.
Well, I though the Windows API time zone was a convoluted mess. Now I'm looking at how Linux handles it: The Olson TZ database, zoneinfo.
That is the most complicated, convoluted, crazy stupid complex thing I've ever seen.

The thing that pissed me off is I was going to acquire about glasses for shooting. This past texas MoMe was a disaster. It was the first time I shot a gun in probably 30 years. I couldn't see the gun sights, it was blurry, so I stuck on a set of readers. I then could see the sights fine, but then the target was blurry so i couldn't see where I was aiming. My long vision is fine, close vision not so much. I'm thinking maybe there is a prescription that will just make everything good. I really wasn't sure how to ask for something like that without saying why I wanted it. After that mask thing I was like no frigging way am i asking for that.

Near as I can figure, "long Covid" is basically bullshit made up by Kovid Karens. Long term "sequelae" of viral illness has always been a thing. Some small fraction of people will have long term problems after recovering from a viral illness. This happens no more or less with Covid than any other one, looks like.
"Long Covid" is just an excuse for more hysteria, and also a convenient bin to hide jab injuries.
