Apparently the Russian army has "donated" more operational tanks to the Ukrainian army than any other country. One of those abandoned/captured tanks was a T-92, a state of the art brand new tank that has been promptly given to the US. Similarly, the Ukrainian army has found massive amounts of ammunition rockets and missiles.

The MAGA/Antiaxxer movement has become a cult wherein the participants (except for the leaders) are completely emotionally and even financially invested in their beliefs much like evangelical adherents who, at the urging of their ministers, mortgage their homes and take out personal loans to donate to their churches. It closely resembles a form of mania, not responding to logic, facts or any evidence that things are not as they believe. I had a patient who was utterly convinced that his music (which was terrible) would be loved by any and all rock bands. He sold all his possessions and moved to the US, living in his car and going from one door to another until his money ran out. Even after he returned to Canada, he persisted in his beliefs.

Dreaded Side Effect Rears Its Ugly Head in Latest COVID Variant All over the world, the rates of death and hospitalization from COVID keep dropping. But our successful mitigation of the worst outcomes of the 33-month-old pandemic belie a growing crisis. More and more people are surviving COVID and staying out of the hospital, but more and more people are also living with long-term symptoms of COVID. Fatigue. Heart problems. Stomach problems. Lung problems. Confusion. Symptoms that can last for months or even a year or more after the infection clears. As many as 21 percent of Americans who caught the SARS-CoV-2 virus this summer ended up suffering from long COVID starting four weeks after infection, according to a new study from City University of New York. That’s up from 19 percent in figures the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported in June. Compare those numbers to the recent rates of death and hospitalization from COVID in the U.S.—three percent and .3 percent, respectively. Long COVID is by far the likeliest serious outcome from any novel-coronavirus infection. And possibly getting likelier .This Could Be the Only Way to Beat COVID for Good: The CUNY study, which is not yet peer-reviewed, focused on American adults, but the results have implications for the whole world. Globally, long-term symptoms are partially replacing COVID deaths. After all, more COVID survivors means more people at risk of long-term symptoms. And long COVID is cumulative—people get sick and stay sick for a while. “Despite an increased level of protection against long COVID from vaccination, it may be that the total number of people with long COVID in the U.S. is increasing,” epidemiologist Denis Nash, the CUNY study’s lead author, told The Daily Beast. That is, every day more people catch long COVID than recover from long COVID. But understanding long COVID, to say nothing of preventing it, isn’t a priority in the global epidemiological establishment. That needs to change, Nash said. “I believe it is long past time to be focusing on long COVID in addition to preventing hospitalizations and deaths.” https://www.thedailybeast.com/scientists-warn-of-spike-in-long-covid-cases-across-the-united-states?ref=home

Watched the post-game interview with Vernon Adams who cam across as a humble personal who gave credit to the rest of the team. Nice. I hope he does well but the Stamps have lost not a step with Maier.

It has been predicted in this forum that the sloppy defence would cost us sooner or later, and it has come to pass. Coaches are supposed to burn the tapes of a game like this. I'm burning my PVR.

Embarrassment has never been a part of right-wing behavioural repertoire. Better than being in jail as a "short-eyes".

Pretty much, yes.

Oklahoma University’s 3rd string QB’s name. We could draft him but I'm concerned that he might screw us over.

That wouldn't take much.

Rose has made a few good plays this year- just not enough.

It was implied that somehow Harrison not seeing the field would have made a difference.

NOT the problem.

We not just beat we were beaten up.

And a big cork.

Neither can play all d-line spots and d-back spots at the same time.

Took a helmet in the solar plexus.

Well, maybe we have a chance, but the whole freaking team was so inept, it leaves little room for optimism.

TSN pumping a comeback scenario for all they're worth, but I think that ship has sailed.

Shivers thought CFL meant Canadian Felons' League.

Shivers being praised whereas he was a terrible GM.

Janarrion Grant is playing himself out of a job. No speed and no read.

Time to walk the dogs and try not to throw up.

Not sure If we dressed a defence.

Are you planning on getting drunk?

Another horrible, horrible defensive miscue. We are boned.
