  1. Appeal for regrading as the current marking algorithm is flawed

    Pics clearly show a Column of 'Alligators' and 'Terrapin' amphibious vehicles on the Scheldt River likely Terneuzen.

    Tourists can 'marry' a Dutch local in new Tourism initiative

    "...tourists can marry a local for a day, go on a date while weeding or pluck and eat a city pigeon in a new initiative designed to combat the negative effects of overtourism.

    One of those activities is “Marry An Amsterdammer”, where a local and a visitor are matched up for a wedding ceremony, complete with rings, vows and proper attire. The ceremony takes around 35 minutes, said Linz, and the "honeymoon" is spent exploring lesser-known spots in the city.

    The marriage is is symbolic rather than legally binding. "It's a chance for a visitor to have a meaningful encounter with a local," Minsk told The Independent.

    Other quirky activities include “weed dating”, where a visitor is matched with a local to know each other while pulling out weeds at an urban farm; walking a local elderly person around a park; or plucking and eating a city pigeon at a local artists' studio."

    On that note - freshly delivered Crab at Westkapelle, Zeeland,

  2. https://jamestown.org/program/pro-russian-disinformation-operations-in-kherson-a-new-old-challenge-for-ukraines-national-security/

    June 29, 2020 - On June 5, Serhiy Nayev, the commander of the Operational Command East of the Ukrainian Ground Forces, reported that the military and law enforcement agencies have strengthened the protection of critical infrastructure in the Kherson and Mykolaiv oblasts to meet a possible Russian invasion. Primarily, the efforts included fortifying the security and defense capabilities of local water-supply infrastructure objects (such as the North Crimean Canal). In addition, the authorities implemented multiple counter-sabotage and counter-terrorism measures (Ukrinform.ua, June 5). At the same time, some of this new military equipment and additional personnel were spotted on the territory of the Henicheskyi district, along the Sea of Azov (Vizit.ks.ua, June 5).

    This is a third warning during three months from different sources. Water crisis in Crimea will buid up very quickly. Most of Crimean water reservoirs already dried out by 50-70 %. From Russia to Crimea also already moved about  500 000 of settlers, that creates additional water resourse load. But for Russia is no matter to problems of local civilians - only one is important - stable and sufficient water supply on military units. Currently their supply is mostly normal, but who knows, what will be through the year, if the winter will be again without snow and too few rains in other seasons?   

    Ukraine now is moving additional units to the South, also during the Caucasus-2020 will be conducted large Ukrainian maneuvers with participation of NATO units.

    Can't water be trained in via tankers? - I thought that was part of the idea behind building the rail/road bridge to make logistics easier. Probably it'll cost a tad more to import and be prioritised, rather than used on agriculture.  I see there's a canal but that's been cut off, and Russians are happy to throw rubles at the problem. North Crimean Canal

    North Crimean Canal / Kherson, Oblast (province)- Would that be an obvious target for land grab?

    Would Battlefront be able to make a title with China in a war?
    Or would they be hacked and harassed
    Not many game companies make games VS China as I think they may make there biggest sales in China so don't want to upset there biggest potential buyer

    Years ago Playing ARMA3 a Chinese Unit mod Developer was alleged harassed and warnings were put out not to put Chinese weapons in the game
    This was on the forums of BI for ARMA
    I think the same happened with ARMA2

    Alot of game companies are being restricted and controlled with there content

    I know a programmer for Robolx games and China had blocked any games relating to zombie apocalypse, anything related to a mass disease, or civil war and unrest.  
    Its very controlling

  6. CM - Border Wars... Featuring China, Pakistan & India with Football & Cricket fans clashing modules 

    "The absence of firearms in the clash dates back to a 1996 agreement between the two sides that guns and explosives be prohibited along the disputed stretch of the border, to deter escalation."

    The image that emerged on Thursday showed crude weapons that appeared to be made from iron rods studded with nails. It was passed to the BBC by a senior Indian military official on the India-China border, who said the weapons had been used by the Chinese.

  7. As above guncrew does seems in a weird lay low loop - only way to get them up and going was to give them a target fire order within their visibility range i.e 5m or so then they jumped out of their fugue and traversed the aim of the gun ( triedto keep ahead of them not allowing them to actually fire just in case the HE caused self inflicted casualties at such close range)

    Once that was achieved they would accept additional commands again as fast as I could give em in real time. And cooly took out a pesky Sherman.
