Пример заказного материала по оправданию охоты дронов ВСУ на мирных жителей в приграничных областях России.
Как говориться – с точностью до наоборот.
При этом никакого уважения к своей аудитории англосаксы не испытывают.
Например, одна из памяток ВСУ для жителей Херсона, сразу переведена на английский язык.

'Human safari': Shocking footage shows Russians hunting Ukrainian civilians with drone bombs... including one blown up as excited dog came to welcome him home

Vladimir Putin's troops have been hunting down Ukrainian civilians with drones and dropping bombs on them in what has sickeningly been dubbed a 'human safari.'
Horrifying footage shared on pro-Russian Telegram channels show the drones chasing civilian cars down before dropping bombs on them, leaving those inside deeply injured.
One particularly shocking video showed a drone stalking a blue car through dense suburbs in the Kherson region. A bomb was seen dangling from the drone as it chased the car, whose owner was greeted by a pair of excited dogs.
As the car comes to a halt at a gate, the car door opens and one pup goes to welcome its owner home. At that moment, the drone drops its lethal package, sending the animal flying and another dog scrambling away.
Another video showed a series of drones flinging bombs at moving cars, causing them to swerve and crash. One clip showed a person staggering out of the car while bleeding heavily, before collapsing on the floor.

Ukrainian officials have shared this advice in light of the increasingly common drone attacks on civilians

This was shared by Z-Bloggers with the caption: 'This is good practice for young drone operators to upgrade their skills and prepare for real combat operations.'
Drones are a real pain for Kherson. Everyone is a target,' Oleksandr Prokudin, the head of the Kherson Oblast Military Administration told the Kyiv Independent.
'Under attack are people walking, driving, bicycling, going to work or standing by grocery stores.'
He told the outlet that while Russians were striking targets around 100 times a day in July and August, the numbers have dramatically risen over autumn.
Another resident, an aid worker named Anastasia, told The Telegraph that people were unable to leave home.
'More and more residents of the city cannot leave the house, even for food, because there is a great possibility that they will not return home,' she told the British publication.
'It was so lucky my aunt came home unharmed.'
Her colleague Natalyathe said drones were taking a psychological toll, telling the newspaper that she struggles to sleep at night fearing the next attack.
'The same question spins in your head; "when will this nightmare end?"' she said.
Ukraine's TSN news program reported that a record high of 330 drone strikes and 224 explosive drops hit the region on September 9 alone.
The drone strikes have had a severe effect on those living in Ukraine as the invasion reached its 31st month.
A mother-of-two - also named Anastasia - told the Kyiv Independent she was cycling home as a drone chased her and dropped a grenade, sending titanium shards flying towards her and leaving her severely injured.
Seen in a wheelchair with bandages around her neck, she said in a video clip shared online: 'I heard a sound - a drone got up in the air from a house.
'I turned my head left... and see it is flying straight.

'I turn my wheel right, it follows. I turn my wheel left, it still follows. It comes close and starts filming me. It realises that I have a ditch to my right and that I need to turn the wheel to the left so it drops the explosives and it falls down my side.
'It brushes my body, the grenade rolled down my body and it exploded right where I was pedalling.
'I curled up as much as I could and that's why I stayed alive. If I didn't pull my head in, I'd be dead.'
The Kyiv Post reported that from July 1 to September 9, nearly half of the 547 reported casualties were attributed to drone strikes. In September, there were over 3,000 drone attacks on civilians.
There have been many reports of Russian drones targeting kindergartens, shopping centres and supermarkets.
Ukrainian officials warned: 'All objects in the air should be perceived as hostile If you hear the sound of a drone or see a copter in the distance and high up, immediately run to shelter. Use basements, basement floors of buildings.

Stay away from administrative buildings, strategic and military facilities, gas stations.'
Though Russia has been making inroads in Ukraine, Kyiv said on Monday its forces had struck a large oil terminal overnight on the occupied Crimean peninsula.
Kyiv has ramped up strikes targeting Russia's energy sector in recent months aiming to dent revenues used by Moscow to fund its invasion, now grinding through its third year.
'At night, a successful strike was carried out on the enemy's offshore oil terminal in temporarily occupied Feodosia, Crimea,' the Ukrainian military said in a post on social media.
Russian-installed authorities in Crimea said a fire had broken out at an oil facility in the Black Sea port town of some 70,000 people and that there were no casualties.
The defence ministry said that 12 Ukrainian attack drones had been downed over the peninsula overnight, of a total of 21 deployed by Kyiv against Russian targets.
'The Feodosia terminal is the largest in Crimea in terms of transshipment of oil products, which were used, among other things, to meet the needs of the Russian occupation army,' the Ukrainian military said, vowing to continue such attacks.
Ukraine insists the strikes are fair retaliation for Russian attacks on its own energy infrastructure that have plunged millions into darkness.

FPV-геноцид. Как дроны уничтожают все живое на прифронтовых территориях

Беспилотники стали в последнее время настоящим проклятием для мирных жителей, которые живут вблизи от линии фронта. Они уже сейчас наносят ущерба больше, чем снаряды, КАБы и РСЗО. И ситуация может резко ухудшиться в относительно недалекой перспективе.

Именно от FPV-дронов идут основные разрушения и жертвы в таких городах как Херсон, Никополь, Энергодар, Горловка и другие.

Недавно в Казачьей Лопани Харьковской области российский беспилотник попал в автомобиль, где погиб судья Верховного (https://t.me/stranaua/170960) суда Украины. А в Херсоне, как мы уже писали, дроны открыли «сафари на людей».

На захваченных россиянами территориях ситуация аналогичная. Там ежедневно идут сообщения о том, что дроны ВСУ либо атакуют цели напрямую, либо сбрасывают на них гранаты и улетают (особенно достается Горловке, на въезде которой даже вывесили по этому поводу плакат на черном фоне с надписью «Смотри под ноги, слушай небо, ты в Горловке»). То же самое в Белгородской области РФ, где украинские беспилотники в ежедневном режиме взрывают автомобили и строения.

Понятно, что и ВСУ, и россияне стремятся в первую очередь поражать военные цели. Но в качестве таковых они, по умолчанию, воспринимают и любые гражданские автомобили, на которых в прифронтовой зоне часто передвигаются военные. Также их целями становятся любые крупные скопления людей. У операторов дронов нет зачастую ни времени, ни желания размышлять над тем - военные ли это собрались или гражданские.

И дело, похоже, идет к тому, что прифронтовые территории с обеих сторон станут максимально безлюдными в радиусе до 10-15 километров - на такое расстояние плюс-минус могут залетать используемые сегодня модели FPV-дронов.

Причем скоро ситуация для мирных жителей может намного ухудшиться.

Украинские военные прогнозируют, что уже в следующем году дроны смогут сами определять и поражать цели - после того как в них интегрируют искусственный интеллект.

"Выращиваются сотни систем искусственного интеллекта и испытываются сейчас уже в тестовых режимах. Через полгода пилоты будут не нужны. Будут нужны люди, которые просто поднимут на метр над землей дрон. А дальше дрон сам определит в зависимости от своего развития, что поразить, как отделить "Жигули" от танка, и точно не отделит украинца от врага. Эти вызовы нужно воспринимать очень серьезно и инвестировать в технологии", - заявлял недавно украинский командир отряда беспилотников с позывным «Мадьяр».

На данный момент в Украине известно о существовании дронов, которые с помощью ИИ определяют вражескую бронетехнику, в том числе замаскированную. Об испытании таких моделей Минобороны сообщало еще осенью 2023 года.

Поступает информация, что подобные разработки осуществляются и в РФ.

Но если искусственный интеллект наделят «правом» самому определять и поражать цели, это может вызвать крайне серьезные последствия.

Резко возрастает вероятность поражения «всего, что движется» и массовых жертв среди гражданских. А также разрушения жизненно важной инфраструктуры и транспорта.

При массовом внедрении ИИ-дронов удары по прифронтовым территориям станут намного интенсивенее. И могут, по сути, остановить любую «невоенную» жизнь, сделав десятки городов и сел «призраками».

И это даже страшнее, чем ядерное оружие, применение которое ограничено как международными соглашениями, так и опасениями экологических последствий (понятно, что, в случае ядерного удара по Украине, радиация дойдёт и до России). По дронам никаких ограничений нет. И потому, потенциально, они могут уничтожить все живое в целых городах, регионах и странах. Ликвидировать или хотя бы минимизировать эту опасность можно только одним способом - остановить войну в Украине и утвердить на уровне ООН и «большой двадцатки» жесткие международные нормы по регулированию использования роботизированых систем и искусственного интеллекта в военных целях.

Квадробер покусал наехавшего на него самокатчика

Материал полностью.


Казалось, и квадробер, и самокатчик – разведчики.

Им обоим Образ Жизни и Формы Поведения Пассажиров и Водителей не указ.

Чего им делить, то?

А вот то и делить, что прислали их соперничающие меж собой начала Дорожного Движения:
• самокатчик разведчик Всадников на дорогах Водителей и Пассажиров;
• квадробер, разведчик Пешеходов на дорогах Пассажиров и вскорости Водителей.

И поэтому меж ними может возникнуть конфликт, хотя теоретически, они должны меж собой сотрудничать, по тому, что задача у них одна – вывести из равновесия, напугать, спровоцировать ответную агрессию Водителя и/или Пассажира, а если особо повезёт добиться вмешательства в Процесс дорожного движения самого Возничего.

P.S.
В прежние времена, на Руси, людей подражающих в поведении своем братьям меньшим, числили бесноватыми и лечили при монастырях кнутом, постом, да послушанием.

«Дураки» и «Дороги»: « много шума и ничего ».


Цитата:
На М-11 «Нева» впервые в России появилась музыкальная разметка

На 653 км М-11 «Нева» стартовал эксперимент по нанесению музыкальной разметки — поперечных шумовых полос с музыкальным эффектом. Теперь, проезжая по участку с разрешенной скоростью, автомобилисты могут услышать фрагмент композиции «Калинка-Малинка».

Первую в России музыкальную разметку на площадке XI Международной специализированной выставки «Дорога 2024» представил председатель правления Госкомпании «Автодор» Вячеслав Петушенко.

«На наших скоростных дорогах нет пересечений в одном уровне, транспортные потоки разделены, предусмотрено освещение, автоматизированная система управления дорожным движением, работает служба аварийных комиссаров. Но мы всегда находимся в поиске эффективных решений для того, чтобы сделать наши дороги еще более безопасными. Одним из таких решений стала первая в России музыкальная разметка, которую уже нанесли на участке скоростной магистрали М-11», — рассказал Вячеслав Петушенко.

Специалисты дочерней организации Госкомпании «Автодор» ООО «Автодор-Инжиниринг» с помощью лаборатории иммерсивных технологий разработали специальное программное обеспечение, которое позволило перевести штрихи в ноты и воплотить в жизнь музыкальную разметку. Это первое в России программное обеспечение, которое позволяет рассчитать необходимые параметры для нанесения линий разметки так, чтобы при проезде по ним с установленной скоростью создавался эффект проигрывания узнаваемого музыкального фрагмента.

Президентом России поставлена важная задача по снижению смертности на дорогах в 1,5 раза к 2030 году и в 2 раза — до 2036 года в сравнении с 2023 годом. Чтобы достичь этой цели, Госкомпания «Автодор» ведет системную работу по профилактике ДТП и обустройству дорог всеми современными средствами обеспечения безопасности, в том числе и инновационными.

Как и шумовые полосы, которыми оснащены современные дороги, музыкальная разметка не даст водителям заснуть за рулем, побудит сконцентрироваться на дороге, например, при приближении к аварийно-опасному участку, и будет служить важной цели — снижению аварийности.

Также она поможет водителям соблюдать скоростной режим: ведь прослушать мелодию можно, только соблюдая разрешенную скорость движения.


Что бы понять суть проблемы обратимся к недавней отраслевой истории…

Цитата:
Музыкальная дорога в Нидерландах стала настоящим кошмаром для местных жителей




Власти Нидерландов закрыли «поющую» дорогу в одной из провинций после жалоб местных жителей. По задумке авторов, дорога должна была проигрывать национальный гимн Фрисландии каждый раз, когда автомобили проезжали по ней со скоростью 60 км/ч. Однако авторы необычного проекта не учли несколько нюансов. Во-первых, местным жителям пришлось чуть ли не круглосуточно слушать «пение» дороги. Во-вторых, многие из водителей проезжали участок гораздо быстрее, из-за чего мелодия искажалась. В итоге под давлением местных жителей власти приняли решение демонтировать «музыкальный» участок дороги. Отметим, что это произошло спустя всего сутки после официального открытия поющего полотна.

Где «Автодор», где Нидерланды, кому в России интересно мнение Водителей и Пассажиров?

Тем более, в России полгода зима и дело не в том, что чистят, а в том, что стирают, что делает этот вид контроля скорости движения чрезвычайно уязвимым.

Кроме того, поющую дорогу слышно не только в машине, в качестве «мелодии», но и по обочинам, в виде возросшего шума движения транспорта.

Отдельная тема, качество исполнения, точнее записи самой сигнальной рекламной мелодии. В этой связи полезно вспомнить один отраслевой материал шестнадцатилетней давности:


Цитата:
Honda Needs a Tune-Up

This is the story of how Honda engineers screwed up a big expensive project with a simple arithmetic mistake, tried to fudge their result with sound editing software, and congratulated themselves for being totally awesome.

When I was a kid, my family used to drive up to The Pinery in Ontario, a beautiful park by Lake Huron. Very scenic. My favorite part, though, was a stretch of road a half-hour outside of the park. To discourage reckless Canadians from barreling past the houses and barns, the local government carved five sets of grooves in the road before every stop sign. Drive over them, and the car would vibrate: “vbvbvbvb... vbvbvbvb... vbvbvbvb... vbvbvbvb... vbvbvbvb.” The faster you drive, the higher the pitch.
My Dad is a musicologist, with a particular interest in tuning. So there was no way he was going to pass up the chance to experiment with this instrument. Every time we approached some grooves, he'd start fast over the first set, and try to slow down by the last set, to play a descending scale: G-F-E-D-C. If there was no oncoming traffic after the stop sign, he'd swing over to the other side of the road and play an ascending scale as we sped up.
Ratios of speeds correspond to ratios of vibration frequencies, which correspond to intervals between notes. To play an ascending scale C-D-E-F-G, you need to drive at these ratios to your starting speed: 1 - 9/8 - 5/4 - 4/3 - 3/2 (for example, 24 - 27 - 30 - 32 - 36 mph). 1
Playing a scale with a '95 Toyota Previa is not easy. The notes tend to come out a little wonky — we'd get the half-step between E and F too wide, and with not enough space between F and G. It usually sounded kinda modal... but still awesome.

Professionals?
So imagine my delight when I heard about this musical road [CNET] that Honda built in Lancaster, CA.. A team of engineers carved some grooves into a highway that were carefully spaced to play the William Tell Overture as you drive over them at a constant speed. Awesome, right? The problem is, it's spectacularly out of tune.


Цитата:

Honda Civic Commercial: Grooves
Источник видео.


Here's the original melody:
And here's the Honda road again:

The Honda version isn't simply out of tune... the notes are just wrong. The original starts with a rising 4th, F-B♭,2 and eventually reaches an octave above the starting note before descending to the tonic F-E♭-D-B♭.3 But Honda's version starts with a rising major 3rd, and its top note is a major 6th above the starting note. Some might have noticed that the last few notes in Honda's commercial sound OK. That's because they edited over them! I can prove it.



Basic melody in the William Tell Overture (schematic)

The CNET article above speculates that Honda designed the road specifically for the Honda civic driving at the speed limit, and other cars might need to drive at a different speed to make it sound better. But if you're going at a constant speed, all that matters is the spacing between grooves. Speeding up or slowing down just transposes everything. It would be theoretically possible to "correct" the melody by driving at different speeds (like on the road to the Pinery). But the notes on the musical road are too closely spaced for all but consummate musician Mario Andretti.
It also doesn't matter what car you drive.4 The vibration frequency is f = v/d, where v is the car's speed, and d is the distance over which the road pattern repeats. There's no place in the equation for wheel spacing, tire size, side-impact airbags, etc. All of these things affect the quality of the sound, but not the pitch.
So why is the musical road so unmusical?

The Error
Honda posted a series of 5 ridiculous videos: [Part 1][Part 2][Part 3][Part 4][Part 5], in which they talk about all the hard work they did and congratulate themselves for being so awesome. There are lots of complicated sounding numbers, there's a "Mathematician/Musician," and plenty of experts. I'm sure some people behind the project understood what was going on. But I think they failed to anticipate a basic misunderstanding on the part of the groove-designers.
In the fourth "making of" video, they mention that the initial note, a low F, has a spacing of 4 inches (4in) between grooves (1:47):


Цитата:

The Civic Project: Musical Road 4
Источник видео.


From the video, it looks like the grooves themselves are about 1in wide. Now, suppose you want to make the B♭ a 4th above F. A perfect 4th is a fequency ratio of 4/3, so you should multiply the width by a factor of 3/4... But the width of what?


Based on the Civic's 106.3 inch wheelbase, we can see from this picture that s+g is about 5 inches. Honda says the lowest note has a 4 inch spacing, so that's consistent with 1 inch grooves.


The width that really matters is the total width of the spacing plus groove (s+g). That's the distance over which the road pattern repeats, so that's the distance over which the car completes one vibration.5 Suppose you didn't know this, and only changed the spacing, from s = 4in to s' = 3/4 × 4in = 3in. Then the frequency ratio is (s+g)/(s'+g) = (4+1)/(3+1) = 5/4, a major 3rd, not a perfect 4th. What about the octave above the starting note? An octave is a frequency ratio of 2/1, but if you only changed the spacing to s' = 1/2 × 4in = 2in, you'd get an actual ratio of (s+g)/(s'+g) = (4+1)/(2+1) = 5/3, a major 6th, not an octave.
Oops.



making an octave, incorrectly

There are two ways you could correct this problem:
1. Adjust the groove width g as well as the spacing s. For instance, to make an octave, use a spacing s' = 2in and a groove g' = .5in, giving a fequency ratio (s+g)/(s'+g') = 5/2.5 = 2/1. This is probably hard with typical cutting tools. Also, the engineers may have found that they need to make the grooves bigger than some minimum width to get a good sound. So on to method 2...
2. Over-adjust the groove spacing so that the total g+s is correct. For instance, to make an octave, adjust the groove spacing to s' = 1.5in, so you get a frequency ratio of (s+g)/(s'+g) = 5/2.5 = 2/1.



making an octave, correctly

The Coverup
Armed with this theory for why the musical road sounds so bad, I crunched some numbers in Mathematica, and was able to reproduce Honda's result, sort of...

Here's Mathematica playing the correct William Tell Overture:
And here's Mathematica programmed to make the mistake I think Honda's engineers made:
And here's honda's commercial version again:
Notice that a few notes in the commercial sound different from Mathematica's version. Particularly at the end. Honda's last few notes are sort of... in tune! Turns out that's a bit of Hollywood magic. Here's a recording I stole from a different video of someone driving down the Musical Road:6
What happened to the ending? It's all funky again. Go back and listen to the Mathematica version that mimics Honda's mistake. Same funky ending.7 Whoever put together the Honda commercial must have edited over the ending, assuming that as long as the last few notes were correct, no one would notice anything wrong.8

What I don't understand is: if they were going to doctor the sound, why didn't they just correct the whole thing? It's not that hard. My dad did this version in about 20 minutes:.

Aftermath
I learned something else kind of ridiculous from this analysis: if Honda didn't doctor the overall pitch of the melody in their commercial, then they were speeding. The opening frequency is about 238Hz, which corresponds to a speed of about 67mph if the road pattern repeats over 5in. But they mention in one of the videos that the speed limit is 55! Crap.
In fact, in this youtube video, where they explicitly state they're going 55mph, the melody starts a minor third below the Honda commercial. A minor third is a frequency ratio of 6/5, so this is consistent with Honda's driver doing 6/5 × 55mph = more than 10mph over the speed limit...
Another funny point is that some of the intervals you get from Honda's miscalculation are pretty bizarre. The D, a major 6th above the starting F, should have a frequency ratio of 5/3 above the starting frequency. Instead, it has a ratio 5/(4 × 3/5+1) = 25/17. This isn't really in the western scale. It's about 2/3rds of the way between an augmented 4th and a pure 5th. Microtonal composers like Easley Blackwood might have found a use for it, but I don't think it's what Honda was after.
If I were them, I'd seriously consider paving over the road. In fact, it seems like some local residents might do it for them. There is another option, though. If they bring in the bulldozers, and shuffle around a few chunks of asphalt at the end of the road, they might get a decent rendition of "When The Saints Go Marching In."

Update [12/30/08]: Added picture comparing grooves to Civic wheelbase.

Update [5/2/11]: I am both sorry and delighted to hear that they rebuilt the musical road (see, e.g., here), and they fixed nothing. Here it is on April 28, 2011:

1. If anyone's wondering what happened to the 1/12th powers of 2 in this whole tuning discussion, I'm using what's called Just Intonation, which is an (often better-sounding) approximation to the Equal Temperament system most people know. Actually, it's really the other way around: the reason we use 12 equal semitones is that it lets us approximate nice integer ratios like 3/2, 4/3, 5/4, etc.. This is a long story that I'm not going to get into here.
2. Actually, the starting note in the recording is around a B♭. I'm going to pretend like everything is in the key of B♭ (so the starting note is F), since that's the key they talk about in the making-of videos.



a picture of Honda's score


1. Sorry to the perfect-pitch people.
2. The original melody actually has a run down to the B♭: F-E♭-D-C-B♭. Honda apparently decided this was too complicated and used a simplified version. That's what I'll stick to here.
3. With one exception that can't fix the tuning. See my comment, below.
4. More precisely, once you know the force driving the vibrations is periodic with period T=d/v, it follows that the vibrations themselves have that periodicity, so the Fourier transform of any resultant sound is only nonzero at integer multiples of f=1/T. For more explanation, see the second comment, below.
5. I've actually transposed it up to be in approximately the same key as the other recordings in this article. By the way, there are hundreds of such videos on Youtube.
6. Aside from a single passing note. If I change the closing notes from F-E♭-D-B♭-D-B♭ to F-E♮-D-B♭-D-B♭, and apply the Honda miscalculation, it sounds almost exactly like the undoctored recording of the musical road. So it appears that there are two errors at work here: the groove spacing miscalculation, and replacing an E♭ with an E♮.
7. It seems like Honda fixed up some of the other notes, too, to get a more pleasant sound. Some might object that it's easy to make the notes sound bad by speeding up or slowing down as you drive down the road. However, I don't hear anything like that in the random person's recording. The melody returns to previous notes with reasonable accuracy, which it wouldn't do if the speed were varying.

What if Putin DID push the button and nuke London? A terrifying minute-by-minute portrait of the apocalyptic horrors of a 9,000mph missile smashing into Trafalgar Square

On Tuesday, Russia conducted a training exercise for a massive nuclear strike against the West, with ballistic and cruise missiles deployed from land and sea.
In a video message to his generals, Vladimir Putin claimed his country’s nuclear arsenal – the largest in the world – would be used only as an ‘extremely exceptional measure’.
Yet since his invasion of Ukraine in 2022, the despot has consistently threatened to deploy this fearsome weaponry, and as the long and bloody war grinds into a stalemate, the spectre of a nuclear holocaust has never felt closer. So what might happen if Putin pushed the button – and dropped a nuclear bomb on London?



A Yars intercontinental ballistic missile launched in Oblast by Russia this week

7.30am : From his nuclear bunker deep inside the Kremlin, Vladimir Putin gives the order.
Six hundred miles north of Moscow, engineers working at Site 16 – the nuclear facility within the Plesetsk Cosmodrome – leap into action. It will take them exactly 30 minutes from receiving the order to launching a nuclear warhead.
7.40am: Nato satellites detect a flurry of activity at the Plesetsk base. Member states are placed on high alert.
7.50am : The Armed Forces and the Ministry of Defence urgently try to contact their Russian counterparts – but their calls go unanswered. Something is seriously wrong.
8am: A Yars intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) equipped with a nuclear warhead – with a range of 7,500 miles – is launched, soaring into the sky.
The onboard navigation system – accurate to within a yard – is set to Trafalgar Square, London. The hypersonic weapon is travelling at over 9,000 mph. It cannot be stopped.
8.01am : In London, Tube carriages are packed and the roads are busy in rush hour. None of the commuters has the faintest suspicion that in just five minutes, much of the capital will be obliterated.
8.02am : Nato early-warning systems stationed across the Baltic States detect the presence of an unidentified flying object hurtling towards the UK. On satellite phones via a secure line reserved for this scenario, governments are warned of an impending attack.
8.03am : Nato raises the threat level to the UK from ‘credible’ to ‘likely’ and Britain’s Ministry of Defence restricts access to ‘base transceiver stations’, preventing domestic mobile phones from sending messages.
8.04am : The Home Office sends a signal to every device with a SIM card in the UK warning of the imminent threat: ‘BALLISTIC MISSILE THREAT INBOUND. SEEK SHELTER.’
The UK’s air defence system, Sky Sabre, is powerless to protect London. Its ‘Common Anti-Air Modular Missiles’ travel at 2,300 mph but are effective only against fighter jets, drones and certain laser-guided missiles.
Even the world’s most effective anti-ballistic-missile system, the US’s ‘Ground-Based Midcourse Defense’, is thought to be over a decade away from true reliability in the face of an ICBM.
8.05am: Confusion seizes the city. Londoners wonder where the missile is headed and if they should – or can – flee. Some are sure the message is a mistake.
The Prime Minister, along with his closest advisers and immediate family, is evacuated from his private office in No 10 and taken to a nuclear shelter beneath Whitehall known as Pindar. Built during the Cold War, the bunker takes its name from the only house left standing when Alexander the Great razed the city of Thebes in 335 BC.
8.06am: All radio and TV broadcasts cease and stations instead carry a recorded warning to take shelter. Confusion changes to panic. Tens of thousands of Londoners rush to take shelter in Tube stations. The first deaths occur as children and the elderly are crushed in the stampede.
Others stand in the open, staring in awe at the bright dot that has appeared in the sky to the east. A mother with two young children collapses on the pavement, cradles her loved ones and closes her eyes.
8.08am: Impact. The warhead detonates in Trafalgar Square. It has a yield of 800 kilotons – equivalent to 800,000 tons of TNT and more than 50 times the strength of the ‘Little Boy’ bomb dropped on Hiroshima in 1945.
A huge white flash, brighter than the Sun, explodes over the West End. It can be seen hundreds of miles away, as far north as Edinburgh and as far south as Paris.
Anyone within the M25 experiences flash blindness. For many, this will last just a few hours. Others will be blinded for life, the ‘atomic flash’ having burnt through their retinas.
Those wearing glasses suffer unimaginable pain because the lenses magnify the flash.
Less than two seconds later, a second flash as light trapped behind the blast’s shockwave escapes.
Within ten seconds, a fireball a mile across balloons in every direction. At several thousand degrees Celsius – hotter than the surface of the Sun – it vaporises everything within its path.
Nelson’s Column, the four lions at its base, and the church of St Martin-in-the-Fields are gone in a millisecond. In their place, a crater measuring 600 ft across and 150 ft deep, like the gateway to hell itself, stretches between where the National Gallery and Admiralty Arch once stood.
The Houses of Parliament, the London Eye and half of Mayfair simply cease to exist – reduced to dust and smog. People are obliterated in their tens of thousands.
The pressure wave – an unstoppable battering ram of compressed air travelling at almost 800 mph, faster than the speed of sound – roars through the capital. Anyone within seven miles who hasn’t been immediately killed will have their eardrums burst.
8.09am: One minute after impact, the ‘Heavy Blast radius’ stretches a mile and a quarter from Ground Zero. Within this radius, fatalities are 100 per cent. Even buildings made from reinforced concrete are destroyed, stripped to their foundations, exposing ugly twisted metal.
The so-called ‘Moderate Blast radius’ reaches three miles from Trafalgar Square, as far as Kensington, Camden and Whitechapel. Within this zone, most residential buildings have collapsed; thousands of electrical fires break out in those left standing.
The ‘Light Blast radius’ stretches seven miles, as far as Brentford, Stratford, Wood Green and Wimbledon. Windows have smashed, impaling some of those who were looking out to investigate the mysterious bright flash.



In a video message to his generals, Vladimir Putin claimed his country’s nuclear arsenal would be used only as an ‘extremely exceptional measure’


It would take engineers working the nuclear facility exactly 30 minutes from receiving the order to launching a nuclear warhead

8.10am: Fires are raging across the capital. Half a million Londoners are dead.
8.11am: In a state of shock, the PM considers from the Pindar whether or not to retaliate against Russia, knowing that to launch a counterstrike would mean certain death for countless millions – but not to do so would be a failure of his duty. Communication lines to Washington are downed.
A bottle of single malt whisky, kept in the bunker is opened by the Defence Secretary.
8:12am: In the North Atlantic, one of Britain’s four nuclear-armed Trident submarines is halfway through its nine-month patrol. The Commander receives a message alerting his crew to the strike on London. They attempt to contact Downing Street via a reserved radio frequency. There is no response.
8.13am: Electromagnetic pulses (EMPs) emitted by the blast cause voltage surges, destroying components in electrical devices. As the living try to contact loved ones, mobile phones die.
Calls to 999 either fail or go unanswered.
In Soviet Russia, steam trains were kept in case a nuclear attack caused an electrical outage on the rail network. The UK has no such backstop, meaning all rail transport in and out of London has ceased. The roads are choked. Electric cars within 15 miles fail to start: the electromagnetic pulse has rendered them useless.
8.15am: The city’s major hospitals, including St Thomas’ and Chelsea and Westminster have been destroyed. The nearest working hospitals, in Tunbridge, Crawley and Luton, are placed on high alert and begin to prepare for an influx of patients.
8.20am: Radioactive debris begins to rain down on the capital. Composed of displaced earth, building materials, and even vaporised human flesh, the fallout is lethally radioactive and constitutes a major biohazard. It will fall for at least 24 hours.
Anyone who ventures outside will involuntarily inhale the microscopic plutonium, melting the body from the inside out.
Thirty minutes after exposure, Londoners in Richmond and Wembley begin vomiting, closely followed by explosive diarrhoea and a loss of consciousness. An agonising death is hours away.
8.30am: The cloud of radioactive fallout is travelling northeast on the wind; it will reach as far as Norwich before whatever is left settles in the North Sea. Anyone caught outside in East Anglia will inhale fallout. Over the coming months, they will suffer weight loss, internal bleeding, and hair loss. Many will go on to develop deadly cancers.
8.35am: The capital is a death zone. Anyone still alive above ground within two miles of the point of impact has suffered agonising third-degree burns to their skin. Radiation poisoning will likely kill them within hours.
In the Underground network, chaos has broken out. Most of the entrances have been choked shut by falling debris and rubble.
8.45am: The lights have failed and panic breaks out in the dark. The temperature rises among densely packed bodies and with no water, some older people start to pass out, joining those already trampled on train floors and platforms or fallen on the tracks.
8.50am: The Prime Minister orders the army to seal all routes in and out of the capital, turning the M25 into a perimeter fence to prevent the spread of radioactive people and materials. Army personnel are provided with P2-grade face masks and iodine tablets to stop radioactive iodine binding to the thyroid and killing them.
The Prime Minister gives the ‘shoot-to-kill’ order for anyone who tries to cross the perimeter.
9am: An hour after the blast. The BBC’s Wood Norton nuclear bunker in Worcestershire, which has access to super high-frequency satellites, begins transmission. The message is simple across the UK: ‘Go in. Stay in. Tune in.’
9.15am: With ‘crisis management’ already in operation, the Prime Minister initiates the second part of the government’s ‘emergency response protocol’ to a level 3 ‘Catastrophic Emergency’: Consequence Management’.
Military reservists and police officers from outside the Met begin to coordinate the rescue effort for those trapped in the city. The first step will be to set up tents where Londoners can be cleansed of radioactive particles before being evacuated.
9.30am: From the Wood Norton bunker, the BBC broadcasts old recordings, including Vera Lynn, in an attempt to raise morale. The broadcasts are punctuated every 30 seconds by the command to: ‘Go in. Stay in. Tune in.’
10am: Two hours after the blast. Three-quarters of a million Britons are dead. Over two million are seriously injured. The vast majority will never receive the emergency care they need. The government’s priority is to prevent the spread of radioactive fallout. London is a mausoleum.
10.15am: After more than two hours trying to contact the Prime Minister, Trident has received no response. The Commander walks calmly over to a locked console in the corner of the command room and enters the code.

He withdraws the ‘letter of last resort’ and opens it. Inside is a simple handwritten message. ‘If Britain is attacked and the Prime Minister cannot be located by this Trident submarine, I authorise a retaliatory strike’. Beneath it is the PM’s signature.
Submariners are called to their attack stations. Many believe it to be another drill. But once in place, the 132-strong crew knows this is for real. The Commander picks up the orange trigger, modelled on the grip of a Colt handgun. He nods towards his crew, shuts his eyes and pulls the trigger.
11am: Communications with Washington have been established by satellite phone. The Prime Minister – knowing he will have the US President’s consent – invokes Article 5 of the North Atlantic Treaty. America launches its own attack on Russia from the South China Sea, striking at strategic targets and nuclear launch sites. Russia fails to retaliate with any further nuclear strikes.

Monday, February 3, 2025
8:00am: It’s exactly two weeks since a nuclear bomb struck London. The capital is deathly quiet except for the careful footsteps of hundreds of soldiers dressed in hazmat suits and the rasping sounds of their respirators. It is three days since Army personnel first entered the capital to search for survivors.
In that time, not a single person within a mile of Ground Zero has been found alive. The vast majority were vaporised on impact. Hundreds of thousands more died on the day of the blast from radiation poisoning.
8:15am: At one of 50 ‘Nightingale’ Hospitals set up in the Home Counties to accommodate survivors, doctors are still treating patients for horrific burns and life-changing injuries.
Up to two million people were caught up in the radiation radius of the bomb, and many will go on to develop fatal cancers as a result.
Scientists disagree about when London will be habitable again – if ever. But one thing is for sure: this once great city, founded by the Romans two millennia ago, is now nothing more than a terrible monument to the darkest day in human history.

«Дураки» и «Дороги»: « очевидное невероятное ».


Что бы понять, Почему и Как демократы проиграли выборы, было бы справедливым обратить внимание на материалы в которых они перечисляют свои основные задачи на будущее.

И хотя сейчас таких статей немного, надо полагать, в самом ближайшем будущем, этот недостаток будет исправлен с избытком.

Воспользуемся пока частным мнение, ибо большинство доступных редакционных мнений, грешат немалым идиотизмом.

Материал публикуем с сокращениями…


Цитата:
Opinion. What should the Democrats do now?
Eight columnists on how the opposition party should adapt after losing to Donald Trump — again.


Vice President Kamala Harris phone banks in D.C. on Tuesday. (Demetrius Freeman/The Washington Post)

...
Charles Lane: Listen to the majority

Democrats need to a) learn and b) think. The main thing they need to learn from is the popular vote. Despite lacking constitutional significance, it is the most impressive result of Tuesday’s election. President-elect Donald Trump is on track to be the first Republican presidential candidate to get more votes than the Democratic candidate since George W. Bush in 2004. He could well equal Bush’s achievement of an absolute majority. The voters have delivered this verdict despite being told relentlessly, by Democrats and allied media personalities, that Trump is unfit, a liar, crazy, dangerous, racist, a misogynist, a Russian agent, a felon and a fascist. It didn’t matter, politically, how much truth there is in this message. A critical mass of the American people — maybe even most of them — have repudiated it.
Trump is now significantly stronger politically than he was before being impeached twice, indicted four times and convicted once.
What should this make Democrats think? Not, one hopes, that the people have proved themselves unworthy of self-government. Alas, some are already indulging this interpretation, much like the East German official in Bertolt Brecht’s poem “The Solution,” who informed a restive citizenry that they “had forfeited the confidence of the government and could win it back only by redoubled efforts.” As Brecht sardonically noted, “Would it not be easier in that case for the government to dissolve the people and elect another?”
Democrats have been acting like the proverbial American tourist in France, trying to get their point across by shouting louder in a language only they understand. Cast out of the White House, the Senate and quite likely the House of Representatives, Democrats should stop yelling for a while and listen, really listen, to the economic and cultural concerns of ordinary people. The electorate that has just preferred Trump to Vice President Kamala Harris is the only one we have. Democrats can’t dissolve it and elect another; and without its support, resistance is futile.

Eugene Robinson: Focus on upward mobility
The math is dispositive about what the Democratic Party needs to do. A bit more than 60 percent of U.S. adults do not have a college degree. According to exit polls, 56 percent of these noncollege voters chose Donald Trump over Kamala Harris. So if Democrats want to build a durable majority, they have to find a way to reconnect with blue-collar Americans — not just White voters but also Hispanic, who fled to the GOP on Tuesday in numbers Democrats should find alarming.
The theme of the Democrats’ appeal should be the promise of upward mobility. The policy agenda would flow from that: alleviating the housing crisis, jump-starting small businesses, safer streets, better schools, more affordable college tuition for your kids. Harris talked about these ideas. Her biggest problem was Trump’s generational talent for making blue-collar voters believe he sees them, hears them and is on their side (even if his policies are not).
Four years from now, assuming the Constitution survives, Trump will be out of the picture. The GOP will own whatever happens between now and then on immigration, abortion and social issues such as transgender rights. The opportunity will be there for the right Democratic messenger to win blue-collar voters back.

Karen Tumulty: Win back Latinos
One place to start is with Latinos.
The flight of Hispanic voters from their traditional home in the Democratic Party should be recognized as a blaring warning siren. Exit polls showed 46 percent of them voted for former president Donald Trump; the former president won 55 percent of Latino men. He swept 14 out of 18 counties along the Texas-Mexico border, doubling his 2020 performance in those historically Democratic strongholds. Trump bested even the numbers won by Texan George W. Bush in 2004.
Hispanics by and large shrugged off the offensive language that Trump and his supporters used, including the late-breaking “floating island of garbage” joke that so many Democrats were convinced would be fatal.
What they listened for, and never heard from Democrats, was a recognition of what was going on in their own lives — and a persuasive argument for how Vice President Kamala Harris and her party would make their circumstances better. Instead, they saw Democrats denying that there was chaos at the border, enforcing prolonged shutdowns during the pandemic that devastated their livelihoods and spending so excessively that it ignited inflation.
So spare them prissy labels such as “Latinx.” Recognize that many are socially conservative. They are less moved by abortion rights, LGBTQ+ issues and social justice arguments. As Danny Ortega, an Arizona Democratic activist told Tim Alberta in the Atlantic: “They may think Republicans are racist, but some of them are going to vote for the Republicans anyway, because they’re better on the economy, better on small business, better on regulation.”
Yet this rapidly growing segment of the electorate can be won back. Democrats could start by paying closer attention to what Latino voters are saying, the realities they are living. And when Trump’s grandiose promises fail to deliver much besides chaos — as they will — Democrats should be ready with a set of economic solutions that actually work.

Karen Attiah: Start over
While former president Donald Trump’s victory indicates a shift in America, the right didn’t win everywhere. A number of progressive ballot measures, including in red states, passed across the country: raising minimum wage, increasing sick leave and reinforcing access to abortion.
I am not terribly optimistic for the Democratic Party — which now feels lost to sea. The arrogant gamble to toss aside progressives, young people, and Arab, Muslim, Palestinian and Lebanese constituencies angry over U.S. support for Israel’s bombardment of Gaza fractured the Democratic base. The party will have to shake the perception that the people shouting about saving democracy are members of a party that people increasingly feel is beholden more to big-money interests and out-of-touch consultants than to its own voters — particularly when it comes to the economy. How can a party talk about democracy while alienating its base and talking down to voters? If they can’t get it right for 2026, honestly, tear the party down and start from scratch.
For those looking to sell books on authoritarianism, this will be an opportune time. I’m optimistic for people who are interested in other ways of building grass-roots power. Community building will be really important. We must continue to help the most marginalized and to regain social trust.
I hope that this will be a time for reflection for the Democrats. Defeat carries deep and powerful lessons, if we are willing to look.

Perry Bacon Jr.: Protect immigrants and trans people
I’m already seeing comments from Democratic members of Congress saying the party needs to distance itself from transgender Americans. I’m very worried the second Trump administration is going to demonize college professors and students, transgender people and undocumented immigrants in particular — and that Democratic politicians are going to go along with it (or not object much), thinking it will electorally help the party.
That’s not the right moral stance. And I don’t think it’s politically savvy either. The Democrats had some of their best recent electoral performances in 2018 and 2020, when they consistently attacked former president Donald Trump for being anti-immigrant and embraced the protest movement after George Floyd was killed. The governors who won in 2022 and 2023 in purple and red states, such as Kentucky’s Andy Beshear, opposed anti-trans legislation pushed by Republicans.
In contrast, look at what Vice President Kamala Harris did in this campaign. She walked away from many of her pro-immigrant stances, bragged about owning a gun and refused to attack Trump’s mass deportation plans. She lost resoundingly — while also saying a bunch of things I doubt she really believes.
Democrats are never going to outdo the Republicans in terms of being mean to minorities. Rather than moving to the right on social issues, they should focus on economic ideas that actually resonate with people. Most people don’t run or aspire to run a small business. So it was strange that one of the few economic ideas that Harris harped on was a small-business tax deduction.
Trump is telling a compelling story with a clear villain — essentially, “Hardworking Americans are paying taxes and having that money go to services for illegal immigrants.” Democrats need their own story — something like, “You can have good health care and a steady job and not pay exorbitant prices for groceries and child care if we start making the billionaires pay their fair share and stop allowing them to take all of the profits from your hard work.”

Matt Bai: Leave Washington
Here’s a bit of political arcana: It has now been 28 years since Democrats last nominated a presidential candidate who hadn’t first served in the U.S. Senate. In the past 60 years, only four Democrats have won the office. Two of them (Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton) were governors who won by campaigning against the system, and another, Barack Obama, ran as an outsider who had barely served in Washington. The other is Joe Biden, who won at an extraordinary moment, mid-pandemic.
Democrats have become an entirely Washington-centric party that celebrates its legislators. I don’t know exactly how Democrats rebound and rebrand in the second Trump era. But the party has to look away from Washington and get back to the states, where most successful reform movements have been born. Sure, it’s harder in these celebrity-obsessed times to get a hearing as a relative unknown, the way Carter and Clinton once did. But Pete Buttigieg showed that it can still be done — if you have talent and a story to tell.
If I were a younger, ambitious Democratic governor who thought I understood where the country was going, I’d hit the road and start making my case before President-elect Donald Trump had finished unpacking his boxes. Outsider movements win. Washington parties don’t.

Theodore R. Johnson: Compromise — then win
President-elect Donald Trump is not returning to Washington with a conservative policy agenda but rather one of rapid and regressive change. And his election does not resolve the recent infighting among congressional Republicans or prevent the coming power struggle between the party’s factions. So, Democrats’ first order of business must be to assemble a governing coalition — even if they are in the House minority — to ensure the business of the country doesn’t stall out with partisan stalemates. They’ll need to be opportunistic in partnering with reasonable Republicans to modulate the administration’s worst impulses.
Their second order of business is finding a new winning electoral coalition. The Obama formula for victory — one that Biden successfully revitalized — was high-turnout elections coupled with lopsided multiracial support: upward of 90 percent of Black voters and more than two-thirds of those who are Latino, Asian or from another ethnic minority group.
That approach, which suggested racial demography was destiny, seems to have unraveled. Trump rebuilt George W. Bush’s winning coalition in 2004 by capitalizing on a set of cultural and economic grievances shared by people across races. But his solution is laden with intolerance, and it comes with threats of state violence. Democrats will have to show how progressive policies on immigration and the economy offer fairness and efficiency without MAGA’s room for despotism.


E.J. Dionne Jr.: Take a breath

Then the Democratic Party needs to start with these problems:
1. The Biden administration’s policies were focused on uplifting noncollege voters in red states. None of this seemed to penetrate. Why? Was it because the benefits of investment programs take a long time to be clear? Or was it bad salesmanship? Or was it because prices so dominated public thinking that none of this got through?
2. We know there is great diversity in the Latino community, particularly big differences between men and women and between evangelical and non-evangelical Latinos. Don’t be so shocked by what happened. George W. Bush got 40 percent to 45 percent of the Latino vote. What brought so many Latinos back to the GOP?
3. Fight Donald Trump’s abuses with everything in your arsenal. But figure out why even a share of voters who saw him as extreme voted for him anyway. How can the dangers the former president poses be made more concrete for more people?
4. Have a conversation on culture wars that is animated by an insistence that the party will not sell out women, LGBTQ+ people and people of color as well as by a desire to use language and arguments that are congenial to middle-of-the-road voters. This also means thinking more deeply about the role of religion in shaping political views.
5. Don’t get obsessed by categories such as “center” or “left.” Most voters don’t think that way. You shouldn’t, either.

Замечательный пример!

Демократическая партия США и её избиратели ничего не поняли!

Подобно известной «притче о генералах и войне» они собираются готовиться к выборам, которые уже состоялись.

К выборам, которые они проиграли именно по тому, что действовали по рецепту выборов прошлых, которых они не выигрывали, но успешно фальсифицировали.

Поведение демократической партии США напоминает а.п. поведение партийной номенклатуры СССР конца 80-х годов прошлого века, когда и где между политикой партии и реальным положением дел зияла огромная пропасть, на которую партийные функционеры старались не обращать никакого внимания.

Мы разбирали эту Модель много раз.
Либеральное преобладание ЕСО>ИСО, господствующее последнюю половину тысячелетия подошло к концу и маятник преобладания качнулся в другую сторону.

Поскольку СССР был ИСО>ЕСО, а США ЕСО>ИСО, он рухнул первым.
США присвоили себе чужую заслугу и тридцать лет твердили, что сокрушили СССР.

Россия сперва верила, а потом перестала и прошла своим Путем.
А США поверив в собственную ложь остались на том же месте.

Собственно история России и США повторилась с демократами и Трампом.
Республиканцы тоже сначала поверили, что Трамп проиграл, а потом перестали и прошли своим путем.
А демократы, как прежде с СССР, остались на том же месте, что и были.

В этом суть того, что произошло.

США демократов существуют только в их воображении.
США республиканцев ушли давно и далеко назад .

Демократическая партия США, как партийная номенклатура СССР в конце 80-х, уже давно и безнадёжно висит «на кисточке».

Как понятно, пробуждение демократической составляющей США будет тяжёлым и возможно кровавым.

И не все демократы захотят/смогут его принять.

По скромному мнению а.п. отношение демократов к мигрантам подобно отношению южан к рабам: те же аргументы, те же доводы.

«Дураки» и «Дороги»: « to beat or not to beat ».


Помните, лет 10 тому, Европа внезапно обеспокоилась возможностью нападения Ирана на Брюссель?
Где Тегеран, где Бельгия?
Тем не менее, под шумок, в Польше была заложена американская база ПВО.
Да-да с теми самыми блоками пусковых в которые помещаются не только зенитные ракеты.
Так вот в среду она открывается…

Американская база противоракетной обороны Aegis будет открыта в среду в польском Редзиково - в 165 км от границы с Россией.

На базе - радар AN/SPY-1, пусковые установки Mk 41 VLS и антибаллистические ракеты SM-3 (Standard Missile-3). На открытие приедут как представители США, так и высшее руководство Польши.

Tomorrow the US missile defense base in Redzikowo, Poland will be officially opened

...
The official opening ceremony of the US missile defense base in Poland will take place on Wednesday. The ceremonies are planned to include the President of the Republic of Poland and officials from Poland and abroad. Although the base is directly under the control of the US Navy, it is subordinate to the NATO command EUCOM, i.e. the command of US forces in Europe.
The statement noted that Poland's defense would receive tangible benefits. The facilities in Redzików would help protect Polish skies from "threats" from Russia. Missiles- interceptors from the Redzikowo base will be able to shoot down missiles fired from deep inside Russia. Thus, in addition to the agreement's provision for protecting Polish territory from attacks using medium-range ballistic missiles, the base's defense system will ensure airspace monitoring and the possibility of a military response to an attack.
The base in Poland is the second installation of its kind in Europe after the one in Deveselu, Romania. Both are based on the Aegis technology, successfully used by the US Navy to target and destroy targets not only in the air. The scheme of the American anti-missile shield is supposed to look like this. The base’s operation is based on spy satellites that must detect the moment of missile launch, then specialized radars (located, among others, in Turkey and Germany) must track their flight path, and missiles launched from land bases or ships are destroyed.

Its systems are located in southern Romania – a virtually identical base to the one in Redzikowo (operational since 2018), in Turkey and Germany (early warning radars plus control of the entire system at Rammstein), complemented by ships based in southern Spain.

There are 130 American sailors and soldiers at the base in Redzikowo.

US, NATO anti-missile base in Poland coming online
The United States and NATO built an air defense system to protect all of Europe from short- and medium-range ballistic missiles launched by Iran (выделено а.п.). The system is called the European Phased Adaptive Approach (EPAA) missile defense system, and the final piece of the network will be operational on Dec. 15. The newest facility in the network is at the Redzikowo Air Base, located in northern Poland. Redzikowo is one of two European air bases that will operate the Aegis Ashore Ballistic Missile Defense System. The other base is in Romania.

Из карты в начале видео все понятно.
Тегерана на карте нет, а Калининград на карте, как раз имеется.
Так вот, почему бы хуситам, сторонникам Ирана не объявить, что база «Эгида» в Польше угрожает их безопасности в Красном море и не нанести по ней превентивный ракетный удар высокоточным и гиперзвуковым…?

В Ярославле запретили иностранные слова на вывесках

Постановление, запрещающее использовать на уличных вывесках иностранные слова и выражения, подписал мэр Ярославля Артем Молчанов.

Исключения могут быть сделаны только для зарегистрированных товарных знаков и случаев, предусмотренных международными договорами. В 2023 году аналогичные запреты ввели в Краснодаре и Саратове.

Зачем мэр подписал – понятно, а почему вообще вывески в России пишут на иностранных языках?

Нет, возьмём шире…
Зачем, вообще, на вывесках рекламодатели пытаются установить хоть какую то умозрительную связь с «заграницей»?

Помните у Гоголя в «Мёртвых душах»?


Цитата:

«Будьте покойны, будьте покойны насчет работы, — повторял он с нескрытым торжеством. — Кроме Петербурга, нигде так не сошьют». Портной был сам из Петербурга и на вывеске выставил: «Иностранец из Лондона и Парижа». Шутить он не любил и двумя городами разом хотел заткнуть глотку всем другим портным так, чтобы впредь никто не появился с такими городами, а пусть себе пишет из какого-нибудь «Карлсеру» или «Копенгара».

Портной сдаёт фрак «наваринского пламени с дымом» Чичикову…
Модный цвет….
Красно-коричневый.
В честь «Наваринского морского сражения» с турками в 1770, во время очередной русско-турецкой войны 1768 – 1774 годов.

Ну да Бог с ними.

Кому и зачем в уездном городе «N» интересны вещи из «Лондона» и «Парижа»?
Да, местным либералам, конечно!

Либералы, как и патриоты есть везде.
И не просто так, для души, а для дела.

Колоритный пример из к/ф «Служебного роман».
Либерал и патриот.
В СССР, «Лондон» и «Париж» были вовсе не обязательны, вполне достаточно «Белграда» и «Будапешта».

Что бы вдохновлять патриота своим обманом на подвиг, всякому либералу нужен реквизит.
Да, разумеется, и нудизм, и вуайеризм, не предполагающие никакого реквизита вовсе, весьма популярны у либералов, но вот патриоты, они относятся к ним трудно и лучше так не рисковать.

Вернёмся к вывескам.
Любая и всякая вывеска - либеральна по определению.
В любой и всякой вывеске обязательно должен жить либерал – иначе она не сможет работать.

Другое дело, что меру этого либерализма – обмана, можно и нужно ограничивать.
Однако, регулирование регулированию рознь.

Из истории Рекламы, Вы помните, что первый закон о содержании вывесок появился в Британии XIII века.
По существу, он регулировал нормы геральдики, упорядочивая Политическую Рекламу рыцарей и … торговых вывесок.

То есть, изначально содержание вывесок регламентировалось весьма строго и подчинялось суровым законом геральдического жанра.
Иначе, у либеральных вывесок старой Британии было весьма благородное происхождение и строгий надзор.

А в России, разумеется, ничего подобного не было.
И не по тому, что мы «недоразвитые» и «убогие», а по тому, что у нас не было никакой розничной торговли вне базаров, рынков и ярмарок, использующих совершенно иные форматы рекламоносителей. В самом деле, куда можно было приспособить вывеску на типичном торговом оборудовании России до XVIII века, как то скамья, бочка, сундук и т.д.?

То есть, в России, как мы уже много раз констатировали, ранее 1840 годов, вообще не было никакой наружной торговой рекламы по месту жительства.

К слову, в России, вопросом разрешения и надзора вывесок занималась … полиция.
То есть отношение к торговой вывеске, было сугубо формальным.

Иначе, торговую вывеску никто своей родной не считал, полагая её данью моде.
Атрибутом модной розничной торговли по месту жительства.
И не более того.

Показателен пример содержательной части торговых вывесок во времена расцвета СССР.

Но, вернёмся к современности и действительности.

Содержание торговых вывесок прямо связано с ролью и местом либерализма в стране.
Каковы тенденции политического развития страны, таково и содержание вывесок.

Цитата:
Ангела Меркель заявила, что проблема Дональда Трампа в том, что он мыслит категориями победителей и проигравших:

"Проблема в том, что он не верит во взаимовыгодность в ситуации, когда выигрывают все, а мыслит категориями победителей и проигравших" , — отметила она в интервью El País.


Источник.


То есть в действиях Трампа нет оттенков, всё только чёрное и белое.
Не любит Дональд Фредович никого кроме себя и своей страны.

В прочем, кто бы говорил, старая ведьма то же не всех любит и до настоящего христианского смирения и вселенской любви Путина, Меркель очень и очень далеко.

А если серьезно?

Почему в Системах ЕСО>ИСО, например в США такое значение имеет личный успех?

Нет – нет, мутное религиозное прошлое переселенцев здесь ни при чём.

Причём здесь толь то, кто кого преобразует.

Как Вы помните, в Системах:
• ЕСО>ИСО, например в США, Продукты и Процедуры преобразуют людей, которые их обслуживают;
• ИСО>ЕСО, например в России, люди преобразуют Продукты и Процедуры, которые они обслуживают.

Есть разница.

По этому, в Системах ЕСО>ИСО, например в США, люди находясь под властью Продуктов и Процедур, которые они преобразуют и для сбережения своего Опыта, вынуждены отказываться от рефлексии в пользу исключительно рационального способа решения проблем.

Так, что упрёк Меркель Трампу вообще-то бесчестный.
Трамп не просто не может, он не должен позволять себе, питать к своим собеседникам какие либо христианские чувства любви и сострадания.

Его страна летит в пропасть, его народ находится на грани гибели, он сам висит на ниточке – какая уж тут любовь и смирение.

Другое дело, что самим им, в одиночку, спастись не суждено.
Не смогут они пройти Качественным Компромиссом без нашей любви, жалости и смирения.
Никак не смогут.

Но, сначала сам Трамп, его народ и страна, должны это Понять и Принять.
А это значит, им всем нужно сознаться, что они проиграли.
Затем, по доброй воле расстаться со значительной частью своего Опыта (технологиями).
И наконец поверить нам, ИСО>ЕСО, например России, что мы поможем им выбраться чёртовой задницы на Божий Свет.

Иного Пути… у них нет.

Цитата:
A city’s ‘no cursing’ signs are being sold. People have spent thousands.
The signs hung in Virginia Beach for decades, reminding visitors and locals alike of the family-friendly atmosphere the city’s leaders wanted to foster.

...
Antigoni Savvides wanted one of Virginia Beach’s famous “no cursing” signs and was prepared to spend a lot of money to get one.
Savvides, 65, was among dozens of bidders vying to own the six street signs that the Virginia Beach Police Foundation auctioned off this week. Only a handful of people emerged victorious to claim some of the quirkier pieces of the city’s history.
For decades, the signs hung in the touristy Oceanfront district, reminding visitors and locals alike of the family-friendly atmosphere the city’s leaders wanted to foster inside their crown jewel. Officials removed them five years ago and put them in storage until May, when they decided to donate them to the foundation.
Now, you can buy one, although you’ll have to compete with bidders like Savvides who are willing to spend hundreds — or even thousands — of dollars to take them home. The first batch of six sold for just over $9,000.
“There’s an attachment to the history,” foundation president Jake Jacocks said, adding that he knows of no other city that tried to curb cursing through city signage. “There’s an awful lot of people, and not just Virginia Beach residents, who spent a lot of time at the Oceanfront growing up in their teens and 20s and 30s, and they like to remember those times.”
Virginia once had a legal prohibition against cursing that grew out of George Washington’s 1776 “Order Against Profanity,” which was used to keep soldiers from engaging in “the foolish and wicked practice of profane cursing and swearing,” according to the First Amendment Watch project at New York University. In 1792, the state formally outlawed “profane swearing [or] cursing,” punishing offenders with a fine of 83 cents “for every such offense.” A version of that law stayed on the books for more than two centuries, and by the end of last decade, “profane swearing in public” was a misdemeanor punishable by a fine of up to $250. In 2020, however, state legislators repealed the law.
Virginia Beach’s version of that statute had already been defanged. In 1989, the Virginia Court of Appeals ruled it was unconstitutional, overturning a man’s conviction under the law for sticking his head out a car window while driving by police officers and cursing at them.
The city installed the signs shortly after the appeals court’s decision, and there they remained for about a quarter-century. In 2019, officials removed more than 100 of the signs at the behest of business leaders who wanted to be more welcoming to tourists and declutter the cityscape ahead of native son Pharrell Williams’s inaugural Something in the Water music festival, according to the Virginian-Pilot. Almost overnight, one of the more distinctive aspects of Virginia Beach vanished.
For more than four years, the signs sat in storage. Then, in May, they shot back into the public consciousness when the city council voted to give them to the police foundation, a private nonprofit that supports the Virginia Beach Police Department by buying ballistic vests for police dogs, maintaining a memorial for officers and helping officers financially when they’re in crisis.
Jacocks, who served as Virginia Beach’s police chief from 2000 to 2010, said this week’s auction was something of a test run. That included three of both kinds of signs that used to hang at the Oceanfront: The more recognizable, in-your-face one features a red circle with a diagonal line slashing through symbols representing profanity: @$#!! Those were accompanied by rectangular ones explaining to visitors that they were discouraged from cursing, making obscene gestures, wearing “revealing attire which is inappropriate in a public setting,” intimidating or harassing others, and breaking the law.
Savvides has spent her entire life in Virginia Beach, a good chunk of it in the Oceanfront. Her parents migrated from Cyprus, a country in the Mediterranean Sea, and in the 1950s, her father opened the family’s first business — the Holiday House Restaurant, a classic American dinner house — on Atlantic Avenue, one of the Oceanfront’s main drags.
In the ensuing decades, the Savvideses bought more land, opened other businesses and made their livelihoods catering to tourists, whether it was feeding them in their restaurants, housing them at their motels or providing them a place to park their cars while they strolled the boardwalk and lazed on the beach.
Savvides was a big fan of the no-cursing signs when they went up in the 1990s. The Oceanfront had fallen off a bit from its heyday, she said, and the signs were a tangible attempt to halt the slide or even recapture some of the area’s charm and innocence that Savvides remembered from her childhood.
“The signs represented trying to go back to a family-orientated beach where everybody respected families and nobody wanted to curse in front of kids, use obscene gestures in front of kids,” she said.
Savvides recalled then-Mayor Meyera Oberndorf handing out half-dollar-sized imitation buttons of the signs that people could pin to their shirts. Savvides said she hoarded them in a Ziploc bag and has occasionally worn them over the past three decades. Those in the know are tickled with recognition, while the uninitiated are curious. Either way, it gets people talking.
“It’s a conversation piece,” Savvides said.
Jacocks was a captain or lieutenant — he doesn’t remember which — in the 1990s when the signs went up. He said it was part of a multipronged strategy to control the noncriminal but undesirable behavior of the large influx of young tourists who didn’t always comport themselves in a “family-friendly” way. Other efforts included shining bright lights and pumping brass band music from heavy-duty speakers starting at 1:30 a.m. to encourage those stumbling out of the bars to go home, instead of hanging outside and continuing to drink for hours.
Both of the latter strategies worked, but Jacocks said he’s not sure if the no-cursing signs made much of a difference in curbing expletives. But, he added, they did spur conversations between police and people confused about the signs’ meaning who sought out officers for more information. Those talks led to pleasant chats that improved relations between police and the public.
When Jacocks learned the signs had been taken down, he knew there would be interest in owning them. He had heard through contacts in the city government that officials were getting a lot of inquiries about them, and over the years, he kept asking whether the city would consider donating them to the foundation.
Savvides was interested immediately when news broke in May that the city was going to do just that and that the police foundation would then auction them off. She was so eager that she tried to circumvent the process. She called the foundation, which she has supported for years, to ask whether she could buy one of them outright. She was told that she would have to try to win one at auction like everyone else, and that’s exactly what she set out to do.
For Peter Van Winkle, getting one of the signs was less about historical connection and more about his personal struggles as a parent. Although he grew up in Virginia Beach and still visits every couple weeks because he owns property there, Van Winkle said he wanted a sign because he’s “a big no-cursing person” in contrast to his four grown children, who cursed a lot growing up.
Van Winkle, a 59-year-old accountant who lives in Richmond, pushed them over the years to think of a more creative way to express their emotions — like his Norfolk high school football coach who, when frustrated, used to eviscerate his players with a “cheese and crackers!” epithet that drew its power from its tone, volume and the gravitas of the person delivering it.
Both Savvides and Van Winkle aren’t done. While they won signs at the first auction, both want to complete their sets by getting their sign’s mate. For Savvides, that means winning the more recognizable, in-your-face circular sign that she was outbid on.
The foundation plans to auction off the 27 circular signs and 57 rectangular ones that it has left. This weekend, it plans to start its second auction, which will run for about a week.
If Savvides gets one, she’ll hang both of her no-swearing signs on a wall in her house, already adorned with mementos from a multigenerational string of businesses: an old Rolodex from the family’s Golden Sands Motel, a fire alarm pull station from the Windjammer Motel, bricks from the Golden Sands with holes that she uses like tiny cubbies to hold pens.
“I’ve been at the Oceanfront all my life,” she said. “It’s part of my history.”

На самом деле, страсть либералов к артефактам своей эпохи своей страны это более сложная конструкция, чем просто туризм во времени.

Дело в том, что как Вы помните, у либералов своего прошлого нет. Все их помыслы всегда устремлены из своего прошлого в чужое будущее (в отличии от патриотов, взоры которых устремлены из чужого будущего в свое прошлое).

Так вот, со своим прошлым у либералов всегда были проблемы.
История своей страны их всегда раздражала.

По этому граждане такой страны всегда относились к коллекционированию сувениров своей страны с огромным интересом, стремясь создать свое именное личное прошлое, в которому можно довериться, в котором можно спрятаться и отдохнуть от вечных грядущих невзгод неспокойного будущего.

В этом смысле такую страсть к сувенирам в своем времени можно сравнить с механизмом выбора при голосовании ИСО>ЕСО, когда потенциальный патриотично настроенный избиратель сравнивает не «Путина» и Иванова, Петрова, Сидорова, а «Путина» и «Путина» – «Путина» сейчас и «Путина» 5, 10, 20 лет тому.

Другими словами, гражданам Систем ИСО>ЕСО, такие дорожные сувениры нужны для персональной безопасной рефлексии, свободном выборе между собой сейчас и собой 5, 10, 20 лет назад.

After Five Generations, a Family Gave Back the Treasures in its Closet
The descendants of a 19th-century federal official decided to return a prized collection of heirlooms to a descendant of a Lakota leader, Chief Spotted Tail.

The beaten-up suitcase had been in the Newell family for more than a century, passed from dusty closet to dusty closet and pulled out every now and then for guests.
They would unlatch the metal clasps and take out a fringed shirt adorned with careful beadwork, a weathered pair of moccasins and an elaborate headdress that trailed eagle feathers down to the floor.
Passed along with the suitcase was the story told by their 19th-century ancestor, Major Cicero Newell, who said he had received the clothing from the well-known Lakota leader, Chief Spotted Tail, during his stint as an agent for the federal government’s Indian affairs office beginning in the late 1870s in what is now South Dakota.
The suitcase had been passed down five generations, ending up in the guest room closet of Newell’s great-great-grandson, James, a retired salesman living in a small town in Washington State.
But when it came time for James Newell to think about passing it along again, the sixth generation had a different idea.
“‘Well, Dad, why don’t we try giving it back?’” James Newell, 77, recalled his son, Eric, asking when the topic came up several years ago at the dinner table.
The older Newell thought about it. There was the issue of whom they would give it back to, but that could be worked out.
“It felt right,” James Newell said.

The Newells’s suitcase is part of an untold number of Native artifacts kept in attics and closets across America, their origin stories often clouded by decades-long games of intergenerational telephone.
A 1990 federal law set up a protocol for museums and other institutions to repatriate Native human remains, funerary objects and other cultural items in consultation with tribes and descendants. But that law doesn’t cover the artifacts found in your grandfather’s basement or your aunt’s cupboard.
As younger generations inherit these possessions, they’re more likely to have an impulse toward giving them back, repatriation experts say. Some are motivated by a sense of ethical responsibility, some by practical considerations, and some because they have less interest in the “cabinet of curiosities” traditions of earlier times.
“Priority No. 1 was to get it into the hands of somebody who is going to take care of it and maintain it,” said Eric Newell, 46, who noted that it had been his “great-great-great-grandfather” who had the original connection to it.
So his father started doing research on the old suitcase in the closet, starting with the man who had asked that it be passed down to the firstborn son of each generation. (It had gone to James Newell, a second son, because his older brother had been wary of keeping the heirlooms in his trailer in the mountains, where he had worked as a logger.)
As with many family stories, the exact circumstances of how Cicero Newell came into possession of the heirlooms are somewhat ambiguous, so the Newells relied on what they had been told by previous generations and what they could find online.

A Civil War veteran from Michigan, Cicero Newell was appointed what was then termed a U.S. Indian agent — an employee tasked with communicating between the federal government and tribes. He was stationed in what is now reservation land of the Rosebud Sioux Tribe.
It was a tumultuous time in the region: The U.S. government had recently seized the Black Hills, flouting the treaty that had promised tribes control over the vast Great Sioux Reservation.
Newell, who later wrote extensively about his time on the reservation, described how he came to admire the Lakota leaders he met. His tenure at times drew criticism; some newspaper accounts accused him of acting as a pawn for Lakota officials such as Chief Spotted Tail. One article criticized him in harsh personal terms for helping spread the word about a Sun Dance ceremony put on by the chief.
In his writings, Newell expressed a particular affection for Chief Spotted Tail, a storied tribal spokesman and negotiator who was shot and killed in 1881 by a member of his tribe. Newell wrote that when he passed on to the afterlife, “I hope that one of the first persons I may meet there will be my dear old friend Spotted Tail.”
What, exactly, Chief Spotted Tail thought of Newell is less clear from the historical record. Newell wrote that during his time as a U.S. Indian agent, he had successfully convinced Spotted Tail and other Lakota parents to send their children to a new federal boarding school out east.
In recent years, research into Native American boarding schools has more fully revealed the neglect and abuse that many children endured in them, as well as their targeted efforts to erase Indigenous students’ cultures to achieve assimilation.
In 1880, the year before he died, Chief Spotted Tail traveled to the school in Carlisle, Pa. Newspaper articles from around that time and letters kept in government archives indicate that he had been unhappy with the school’s approach to punishment and grew distraught over the sickness and deaths of schoolchildren.

For James Newell, an idea of what to do with the suitcase began to take shape in 2020.
Newell, who had been researching for more than a year, was looking on the website of the Rosebud Sioux Tribe when he came upon a familiar name: John Spotted Tail, chief of staff to the tribal president. He reached him over the phone and told him what was inside his family’s closet.
“At first I kind of thought it was a crank call,” John Spotted Tail, 69, recalled.
But as he listened to Newell’s story — after explaining to him that he was five generations removed from Chief Spotted Tail — he began to grow interested.
Newell was eager to give the contents of the suitcase to a descendant of the Lakota chief but wary of driving it across the country. Federal law prohibits the possession of eagle feathers without special dispensation, but the government allows exceptions for Native Americans because of their religious and cultural significance. Newell was worried that if he were to be stopped on the road, his possession of the headdress could land him in jail.
John Spotted Tail’s curiosity was piqued by Newell’s story. When he came home from work, he asked his wife if they had enough money to travel to Washington.
They got in the car the next morning, supplied with lunch meat and bread, and began a 1,400-mile drive to the home of a complete stranger.
“We’re halfway there and I look at John and I said, ‘What if these people aren’t real?” said Spotted Tail’s wife, Tamara Stands and Looks Back-Spotted Tail.

But as soon as the couple arrived in La Center, Wash., the Newells opened the suitcase for them. In addition to the clothing, it contained a bison horn and braided hair that could have belonged to a horse or a person.
“We looked at each other and we said, ‘Is this real? 144 years?’” she said. “We were just kind of in awe.”

After spending three days with the Newells, the Spotted Tails drove back to the Rosebud Reservation with the suitcase in the trunk of their Volkswagen Passat.
There was a tribal protocol they needed to follow to determine where the belongings would end up. They consulted Lakota spiritual leaders and cultural experts, participated in a ceremony surrounding the clothing and consulted other Spotted Tail relatives.
Some were skeptical about the story from the Newells; others wanted to see the items kept with the family. John Spotted Tail favored putting it in a museum, where visitors could learn about the Lakota leader.
For several years, he kept the suitcase in his home, but the responsibility began to weigh on him. “It was hard to even leave home or go anywhere because they were here,” John Spotted Tail said.
He and his wife called the South Dakota State Historical Society in Pierre, where curators wanted to feature the century-and-a-half old heirlooms prominently and assured them that they would be well preserved. And the museum was less than a two-hour drive from the reservation, making it accessible to local relatives who wanted to visit.

The suitcase, and the story of how it got here, was a historical society director’s dream.
The director, Ben Jones, looked through old photographs and read Newell’s writings to try to find evidence indicating that the Lakota chief had given the one-time Indian agent such a significant gift.
None surfaced, but it was clear that the two men had crossed paths, living in the same area for a couple of years and navigating the conflict around the U.S. government’s westward expansion.
In May, the Spotted Tails formally transferred the suitcase and its contents to the historical society at a ceremony involving Lakota prayers at a middle school in Pierre. The museum is hoping to put the heirlooms on display late next year.
“They became colleagues, and then friends,” Jones said of Newell and Chief Spotted Tail, “and five generations later, their families were wondering what to do with these artifacts.”

Судя по тому, как они обдирают иконостасы в захваченных церквах на Украине, представить себе, что старик по доброй воле отдал чиновнику облачение имеющее большое значение для культуры его народа, весьма затруднительно.

А вот представить себе, что это облачение забрали силой или шантажом, гораздо легче.

Особенно на фоне рассказа о том, как чиновник уговорил отдать детей в интернат, по сути концлагерь для индейских детей, с жестоким обращением, никчемным воспитанием, культивируемыми болезнями и огромной смертностью.

Но, а.п. привёл эту статью не для этого.

Помните, в этой статье есть пассаж о нравах полиции на дорогах США, которая соблюдая закон о защите орлов, изымает перья птиц и любые вещи имеющие их в своем оформлении, задерживает водителя и решением суда приговаривает к тюремному заключению?
