the Boris Yeltsin Libertarian Government of Russia.
Took about 8 years for the Oligarchs to gobble up all the resources in the Country.
And barely 2 years later, the US Army Air Force had aircraft with the speed, altitude and reach to strike the Japanese home islands from the second island chain or mainland China.
Note the P-38,P-39, Corsair and B-29 were projects started before US involvement in WW2.
The B-29 project was vastly expensive. IIRC more so than the Manhattan project and a miserable flop at its original mission of high altitude daylight bombing. Japan could likely have been fire bombed from low altitude by B-24’s at night instead of B-29’s. Took a long time to sort out the engine overheat/fire issue on the Wright engines too.
After WW2 the B-29 was used to air launch the Bell X-1 and Douglas Skyrocket (lesser known than the X-1, Chuck Yeager and the X-1 got most of the glory). Major fear was an engine catching fire on climb to altitude. Skyrocket pilot Bill Bridgeman had a friend who was worried about him flying the Skyrocket, not because of that aircraft but because of the propensity of B-29 engines to catch fire
But was never meant to blindly go along with everything.
The Grassroots are saying Deves is a disaster.
Perhaps Palmer or Hanson would like her as a candidate?”
Trouble is, it is classic Country Party /Katter Agrarian Socialist tax-eating.

One mis attributed photo subsequently corrected in a database full of thousands of images doesn’t make it a “load of codswallop”.
I can’t remember whether Oryx databases UKR vehicles as well as RUS ones. Other geeks do, I have a couple of those sites bookmarked on my desktop. I can give the urls if you want, right now I have a game going on it though. Priorities!
Mostly now I’ve not been keeping track of the equipment sites lately, just general progress. It’s still a mess. Mariupol is a continuing thorn, a VDV column of paras was spotted heading there yesterday apparently. Also the Russians were saying to the remaining defenders last night that if they surrender they will keep their lives. I doubt the Azovites in the steelworks will believe that somehow.
More than that. Armchair Warlord had a look through earlier in the month. Apparently, at one stage Oryx was claiming a humvee as a RUS loss.

There’ve been a few photos creep in from other places, like from 2014 or even Syria. A tank in a desert is a bit incongruous since I’ve not noticed many deserts in Ukraine. But overwhelmingly the photos seem to be a genuine attempt to keep track of what is happening. There’re a lot of them.

Data doesn’t come any more open than with photographic evidence and dates attached, plus the ability of anyone to propose an addition or dispute a claim in the open thread, which seems to have contributors from either side plus some who are just military equipment junkies.
Husband and wife are one, and a wife can agree to obey. To obey though means more than to do as one is told. True authority is a gift given to the one in authority, and authority is not about getting one’s way but rather about charity and the good of the other. But I understand, too, that peacemakers, if that is a context, are called ‘blessed’. The point though was that with the vaxxing business, it never happens that the unvaccinated make being unvaccinated a condition to circumstances – in contrast to the behaviour of the vaxxed. Bespoke mentions Struth – Struth did not reject his son, I don’t think, even though he regretted the son’s decision. Struth played in a bar with vaccinated persons in attendance, yet these same vaxxed persons earlier would not have allowed him, as a matter of their personal attitudes (attitudes and not principles because if they were principles they would have held onto them after the mandates lifted) into their company. It’s not really a minor point, for what societally is enacted as coercion also has its attendant injustice at the more immediate. Both are unjust.

I think the biggest reason for the imbalance in photos is that the Russian guys were required to leave their phones behind when they started the campaign. Thus there’re many fewer pics available of damaged UKR equipment. There’s plenty of it, we’re just not seeing many photos.
who knew war porn was a thing….
There have been occasions of unvaxxed refusing service to the vaxxed, a hairdresser somewhere up north iirc.
If you look you will no doubt find more examples of pure blood concerns.
And of course some unvaxxed are very concerned about getting vaxx tainted blood transfusions.
I believe that might include people on this forum.
Of course a charitable person would assume many of the vaxxed concerns relate to (unreasonable) fear of transmission from the unvaxxed.
Look, I fully support your Right to be injected with Snake Venom.
And, yeah, I’m okay that my taxes will have to fund medical assistance when your choice turns out for the worse.
Don’t think so Franx. The push to to divide the vaxed and un-vaxed has been loud and long. But I do not fight over bogan chick’s. So I’ll leave it at that.
Wow.
Queensland Health Minister Yvette D’Ath was flummoxed. ‘I don’t think anyone can explain why we saw a 40 per cent increase in code ones,’ she told journalists. ‘We had a lot of heart attacks and chest pains and breathing/respiratory issues. Sometimes you can’t explain why those things happen.’

You claimed there were no circumstances in which the unvaxxed sought to to exclude the vaxxed.
In fact there are some, though of course, the unvaxxed fanatics are somewhat rare.
As for the vaxxed excluding the unvaxxed, no doubt, but never in my family.

My point is that Ali wasn’t smart enough to make his own decisions, but he was highly suggestible.
Announcing as a Black Muslim the day after the Liston bout and declining to register for The Draft weren’t decisions he was capable of arriving at with a 65 IQ.
what a load of bullshit racist nonsense.
Zipster – The Russians seem to be like the Germans in WW2. They just keep on designing and building new variants of everything under the sun. Then they add all sorts of ad hoc stuff, like more armour sheeting or those anti-missile roof thingies. The US by contrast appear to boringly settle on one basic design and cookie cut them out. So in Ukraine we’re getting to see all these weird and wonderful vehicles, and the geeks wet themselves whenever they spot a new one. It’s funny in a very black humour way.

I would have thought that a 65 IQ would be the most likely explanation for at least the first of the two.
Really the second as well. A celeb like him wouldn’t have been sent anywhere he’d be likely to be killed. They wouldn’t want that bad PR. He would have been posted stateside and given lots of time off to train and box.

I actually saw Ali at a work function once. He was quite tall. 🙂 It wasn’t eggsactly a work function but some of us were asked to attend a charity function on the bank’s behalf.
It was the same function that JFK jnr attended and Uncle George was a guest speaker. 🙂
A valuable lesson in “growing calls to step down” news.
Two weeks ago Jeff Kennett was a goner as President of Hawthorn Football Club.
Apparently he had made a joke about the torn jeans worn by the wife of former Hawks player Cyril Rioli.
Cyril is Aboriginal, so this was bigger than telling Rosa Parks to sit up the back of the bus.
Jeff said “sorry”.
As in “sorry she feels that way and is being an idiot”.
He wasn’t going to survive.
Had to go.
Except he didn’t.
And he isn’t.
A lesson for ScoMo.
Stare.
It.
Down.
