Bolos?

Not going to state the obvious with Ricardo Montalban, but I always enjoyed William Campbell’s Trelaine. And yeah, Windom was solid as Decker. Great episode all around.

I use a tiny drill bit to make a hole in the centre of either side of the damaged joint, then cut a piece of metal tubing (hobby shops sell them) or a piece of plastic such as filament from a 3D printer (getting a ~1cm piece of PLA from your local library is probably free) to use as a pin to fit into the holes and reinforce the joint. Then once you are happy with the fit, glue it all together. If it is really tiny, you may not be able to pin it and then glue might be your only hope. Depending on the weight of the parts and material, crazy glue is usually pretty good for most situations. With plastics, where I need it to grip right away and hold its own weight, I like Testors modeling cement. Way better initial hold than even the gel crazy glues.

Seriously. Four hands is enough to hold your cock, balls, phone and a tissue!

Pavel Bure became a wizard?

Russia has been using low altitude approach and low altitude release with a quick pull up to lob the glide bombs in. The bombs have minimal range and accuracy, so Russia has just been throwing large bombs, and more recently, cluster bombs, to try their luck at hitting and damaging front line infantry positions. What they are doing works, is more effective than their artillery at killing Ukrainians, and has been going on for almost a year now with little to no reprisal from air defence. They aren’t going anywhere near 15km high, or forget Patriots, the Buks and S300s that Ukraine is comfortable keeping near enemy lines would hand them their asses.

From my understanding based on what I have read about the situation with the attacks on front line positions, they would need to move it further towards the enemy by about 10km past their lines to be able to pick up a plane flying just above the treetops to see it when it is within glide bomb launch range. I guess they could have given that a shot, but I am somewhat dubious.

They probably did the shooting down part, but something has changed. Russian pilots know how low they need to fly and how far away they need to be from the front to be able to launch 2000lb glide bombs at Ukrainian front line positions without being picked up by ground-based radar. And that has been stalling their offensive operations for a long while now. Ukraine didn’t extend their air defence by moving it forward. They must have done it by putting something in the air with a radar that can integrate with Western air defence systems. Being in the air instead of on the ground allows radar to see much further towards the horizon and suddenly the air defence can see into the dead area that starts about 30-40km behind enemy lines that the Russian planes have been operating in. This was one of the speculated roles of the F16s in Ukraine, and based on the reports of a sudden and precipitous drop in Russian glide bombing activity at the front due to their planes now being in missile range before they can attack, it wouldn’t surprise me if this is what has happened.

My parents still have it! Always a favourite when visiting.

And now, crew, one more time!

This saves on horn fluid too. Genius.

I thought the whole point of not using things like cluster munitions or land mines was that even with clearing attempts, some will inevitably stick around after the war and civilians will find them. So introducing either weapon to an area they weren’t previously deployed in is indeed a terrible thing to have to consider. But it also sounds like both Ukraine and Russia have been using cluster munitions and land mines all over the place since the start of the war, so this seems like an argument about closing the barn door after the horse got out last year. Sure, maybe that one more bomblet will be the one that claims yet another life in this tragedy, but the bomb that dropped it may also save the lives of Ukrainian soldiers. This really doesn’t seem like a clear cut moral problem at this point.

She’s asian and was the only candidate with major name recognition in the race, so she was on cruise for the win since she threw her hat in the ring. She was a federally elected representative for a riding in Toronto for the better part of a decade, and was a city councillor for even longer, so she has significant experience. Time will tell if that matters. She is probably not going to be outed as a crackhead at the very least, and as a widow is also unlikely to get caught up in any extra-marital affairs, so baby steps forward for Toronto mayors.
