Apologies if this is not exactly on subject to this post I am commenting on, only I find the comment in paragraph 6 of the article linked below rather extraordinary: "There is a great deal of evidence that the Russians are readying a massive assault to block the Ukrainian counteroffensive and drive deep into the country." Granted, I do not have the same level of information as yourself nor George Freidman, only I have not heard any other source talking about the Russian Army 'readying a massive assault'.

Faded Days by Double Parked

The Kiwi’s are here: great song from this West Auckland group. Cool slow intro into catching verses, with great drums, bass and rhythm guitar. Just when you start to wonder where the lead is, it kicks in at the in end of the third verse, and it’s a cool, clean riff. That riff fads into the last verse that goes hard rock for the last chorus. Altogether a very cool rock song. Faded Days by Double Parked - streamusique.com Cool slow intro into catching verses, with great drums, bass and rhythm guitar.

Internet Phones: Time to Get Real

New Zealand, Cyclone Gabrielle and Internet phone connections. Cyclone Gabrielle hit the North Island of New Zealand late Sunday evening, February 12, 2023, with devastating consequences of huge rainfall, flash flooding, washed out roads and bridges, and, most importantly, severely disrupted communications. Actually, I should say: there are no communications, full stop. The latest news round-up can be…

Agree, having tried it out, that it's very convincing, although it's a worry that Musk is one of the original investors. But then, maybe not - that's why he produces all these weird tweets!

Interesting, and it's going to depend on just how much support this National Republican Army has, not only with the general populace but also within the establishment, especially the FSB, as you alluded to in your earlier article reporting the assignation. Also, interesting is commitment to release 'all those illegally convicted'. Navalny immediately springs to mind. One way or another, the situation is hotting up. What with Ukraine Independence Day on 24 August, the continuing Ukraine 'fear' attacks on Crimea, the fragile Russian hold on Kherson and Putin's upcoming October 70th birthday, pressure is building on him to attempt a grand gesture.

In addition to the glaring error regarding the ‘news’ that both the former president Nursultan Nazarbayev and his appointed successor, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, fleeing the country (not), and leaving aside the admission from this article regarding the Russian-led forces that Tokayev called in to help, let's look at the currency story…

The MIQ Chronicles: Travel Day.

I live on the New South Wales Central Coast, with a one and half hour train journey to get to Sydney International Airport. The increased security and earlier check-in time would have meant doing the trip with the early morning commuters going to Sydney. Something to be avoided with suitcases…
