Heavy Fighting As Battle For Vuhledar Rages
Lots of videos on line. Everything I post will be wrong this early but something certainly is going down. The Iranian Ministry of Defense claims drones struck a facility in Isfahan as reports of blasts in other cities cause alarm. For up to date stuff, you sadly have to go to twitter or telegram.

Nightmare stories circulated, like the report of a pregnant woman who lost her baby due to draconian COVID regulations. She was left bleeding onto the sidewalk in the dead of winter outside a hospital in Xi’an, her child sentenced to death by her expired test result. This short “Help, they are coming to get me” video is relevant.

Urkaine, Truth about the Fallen British Volunteers and What happened.
If you don’t want to listen to talking and just want to see the footage, skip to 6:45. But I think the talking provides some useful context as the footage is chaotic and if you don’t know a lot about what went down it is hard to catch to significance of some of the hard to hear conversations.

The reality, however, is this: The congressional single-payer bill (HR 1976) contains the key components driving the implosion of the British health care system, including government budgeting, bureaucratic central planning, and reduced pay for doctors and nurses. Related: In December, as many as 500 patients per week were dying in Britain because of E.R. waits, according to the Royal College of Emergency Medicine, a figure rivaling (and perhaps surpassing) the death toll from Covid-19.

A reminder of what has happened in the past: While Williams’ exploits on November 18, 1952, were very clearly extraordinary, the delicate political position at the time meant that there would be very little fanfare. Since Moscow was not officially involved as a Korean War combatant, having a U.S. fighter jet shoot down Soviet fighters flying from a Soviet airbase, killing Soviet airmen in the process, was strictly taboo.

Fire Log #4: Tape As Tinder Retest And Trying Out The FireBox Nano.
For this test I wanted to revisit the use of duct tape as tinder and try out my FireBox Nano. Both things were done with one fire but the two tests did not work very well together so the test of the Nano was not very fair. As the fire starting was pretty straight forward I am going to keep both things in one narrative.
Conditions: It was 29 Fahrenheit just like last time. This time there was a dusting of snow but had been raining hard earlier in the week so everything was wet just as it has been since I started doing these. And in another shocker, there was also solid cloud cover. The weather has been depressingly consistent this month.
Test: Start a fire with duct tape and lighter in a FireBox Nano.
Equipment Used: Bic lighter, duct tape, FireBox Nano, and a one liter metal water container.
