See, this is my million dollar idea....."Hallmark After Dark."

You watch the regular Hallmark Movie, where cute busy NY gal ends up in Christmas Falls, and ends up falling for the local handyman or some shit.  They kiss, the movie ends.  Then...."Hallmark After Dark" begins with "Christmas Falls Part II: the Holiday Whore."  This movie focuses on the freaky sex the new couple has, including some shocking moves the gal picked up in NY that really surprise the handyman....but he quickly gets into it, and deploys some creative ideas of his own....

We would OWN the "Fifty Shades of Gray" demographic.  We would OWN THEM.

Laugh if you will, but a well-made, and acted, movie about people and their relationships is a nice change from a bunch of men in tights and a cape throwing buildings around or endless car chases and heads exploding.

This was reportedly the 3rd S400 system destroyed by the Ukrainians, 2 of which were done in fairly rapid succession; today and August 23rd.  At a certain point, the Russian's will either have to stop deploying these out of lack of availability or fear of destruction.  I have no idea what that tipping point is, but this sets up nicely to help the new air power coming on line.

Looked up the movie.  It starred Connie Britton.  Therefore, by definition, it cannot suck.

Again, to go back on topic, the West and America will prevail in this war, because we have people like Connie Britton.  10X hotter and classier than anything Russia has to offer.

What's this? Oh just Connie Britton hanging out with her BF Carla Gugino.

Russia never stood a chance.

Certainly, that plot is a good way to segue to other characters - like the super hot ER doctor, who meets the protagonists when he does the emergency gerbil removal surgery.

In particular I was stuck by the discussion of the Replicator Project, a Pentagon plan to take on Chinese ‘mass’ with autonomous vehicles in the air, on land and in the sea. It was described as a plan similar to how Ukraine is fighting Russian ‘mass’

I was on a flight yesterday and just as the plane took off the guy seated next to me asked, "Are you familiar with the offshore platforms the Ukrainians recently captured on the Black Sea near Crimea?"

"As a matter of fact, yes."

In a hushed voice, he continued. "The russians were using those to monitor the entire Black Sea. And it's amazing how quickly re-capturing those paid off because there's no way the Ukes would have spotted a submarine above water without being able to utilize those platforms. Russia's militarization of oil platforms got turned in their faces and they were caught unprepared and flat-footed."

And then before I could even ask if he had proof or whether it was circumstantial, the plane landed. Short flight. Burbank to LAX.

Maybe, it's hard to tell if it's that or just garbage.  We've seen how the Russians generally don't keep areas clean or police themselves in this regard so often that it's easy to believe that their dry dock would just be littered with refuse.  

With the increase in sea attacks the last few days, it seems clear the plan was to damage the docks, then attack the sea.  The fact that the Russian's just happened to have 2 ships in dock when they hit it appears to be just sauce for the goose.

And those oil platforms the Ukrainians took back are looking increasingly important.

fwiw I put the post up because I read something yesterday with speculation about the attack but I couldn't find it to quote or cite. And it seemed like a short, possibly funny tangent.

Anyway here's what we "know."

--the Ukes have had the Storm Shadow missile, apparently their longest range weapon, since May

--when they took control of the platforms among the prizes captured (apparently at the end of last month) was russian radar which was used to protect russian assets

It seems a reasonable deduction that a) step 1 was to disable russian radar, then b) launch an attack (10 missiles and 3 naval drones were reportedly used).

If it were as simple as launching the missiles and drones at a target, they could have done that anytime after taking possession of the Storm Shadows.

I have no idea if this is what indeed took place, but when you put it that way, it doesn't seem logically out of bounds.  Perhaps the Ukrainians used the captured radar to somehow trick Russian radar and operators.  It could be that this was also used to get the S400 system as well, it had been geolocated for some time prior, but they just got it now.

Killed in Ukraine has had some interesting posts...first the usual "this is how many were killed" from last week

The Russians have publicly announced the names of at least 2 783 Russian officers who have been killed in Ukraine as of 7 September ’23.Confirmations are made via funeral notices, obituaries and news sites from Russia. Names and sources can be found in the table in our profile.

One example..a military conductor that may have been acting as a battalion commander.

"For a long time he led the military orchestra in Borzya, Chita region. What’s even more interesting is that, according to another sources “Sayan had been acting as battalion commander for the last month.”

A military conductor trained as a sniper, mobilized Major of internal service Доржиев Саян Бальжиевич (Dorzhiev Sayan Balzhievich) callsign “Maestro” was killed in Ukraine on 3 September ’23 by mortar fire.For a long time he led the military orchestra in Borzya, Chita region.…

Balakovo, Russia: 

  • 16 soldiers killed in Afghanistan in 9 years
  • 50 soldiers killed in Ukraine in 1.5 years
  • 29 of them from PMC Wagner
  • 3 of them from Storm penal unit.
  • More than half of those killed are Wagnerites and convicts.

This sheds some light on the Russian people’s support for this terrorist organisation.

Plaques have been added to the memorial (with additional space available).

Whichever one of you imports his widow, take some photos of yourself wearing his uniform or show up in it at a Surly tailgate party.

One of his kids seems embarrassed that mom made him put on his dad's uniform jacket, the other seems pleased that mom didn't ask him to wear it.

Some of these hit the interwebs quite a bit after their deaths because for some reason, Russia doesn't prioritize shipping the meat pallets home or something.

I wondered what Matt LeBlanc did after Joey was canceled, looks like he went to Russia, but unlike Steven Segal, he actually manned up and put on a uniform.

Killed in Ukraine mentioned that they don't try to deal with overall numbers, but that this was an interesting thread to follow

A thread 2/Some of my previous statistical analysis: https://t.co/NrDTJJM51L

I'm skipping some stuff because it's a long thread

We acknowledge that the war in Vietnam is different from Ukraine. The Air Force losses are on different scales, losses of sailors are different too. Therefore, excluding killed Russian officers who are pilots and sailors. 5/

 

#73199
Calculations, Step 1:Finding the historical ratios between officers killed compared to the total number of soldiers killed in Vietnam (US Army & USMC): The US Army & USMC killed statistics from the Vietnam War:9/
To find the historical ratios, we calculated as follows:Total killed / Officer killed of a Rank = RatioUS Major: 53 015 / 331 = 43US Lt Colonel: 53 015 / 147 = 160US Colonel: 53 015 / 26 = 2039US Major General: 53 015 / 3 = 17 67111/

 

#73200

Here's the meat of his stats, and later in the long-ass thread, he mentions that this has problems, since it's only based on confirmed Russian officer deaths, that there are issues with LNR/DNR losses, that reported deaths lag by a long time (as I posted above, some of those deaths go back to June) and that deaths from the current counter-offensive are not included. 

He also gets into the fact that Russian command structures differ from American command structures - in the US military, many decisions are made independently by lower ranks, whereas with the Russians, they are more centralized/top-down, so their field-grade officers (majors and up) are making decisions that American junior officers (captains/lieutenants)/NCOs would normally make. This exposes higher-ranking Russian officers at the front more oftent, leading to more deaths among those ranks than you get with Americans. I'm not going to post more, as it's a long thread.

Russian Colonels killed : 63 x 2039 = 128 459 Russian soldiers killed Russian Major Generals killed : 5 x 17 671 = 88 358 Russian soldiers killedEstimates suggest that Russia lost between 49 000 to 128 000 soldiers killed.Estimate average/mean = 80 522 Russian soldiers killed
The lower the ranks, the less likely it will generate confirmation evidence to be found. As example, if we ignore the Majors in the calculation, then the estimate suggests that 91 026 Russians have been killed instead of 80 500.21/
