A Gen. Hertling perspective on the importance of prioritizing logistics in #Ukraine

Grim assessment:
"The Ukrainian military is suffering from roughly 100 killed-in-action every day, and 100 to 300 wounded-in action, said Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff."

FYI, your district attorney, the one responsible for prosecuting crimes, doesn't have to tell the public what deal they made w/ the criminal in cases that don't make it to court.

When a DA takes over a case the victim is no longer the plaintiff and doesn't have any right to be included in any plea deal.

In San Francisco, the former DA reduced felonies to misdemeanors and didn't involve the victims or their attorneys.

We had no way to track that.

There needs to be a law for accountability.

The Stephen Colbert opener tonight was fantastic!!!!

Everyone should listen to the January 6th hearings tonight!

This is this generation's Watergate. It will be discussed for decades.

Last night San Franciscans recalled their DA, Chesa Boudin.

Don't believe anyone that tells you this was a conservative or Republican initiative.

This was a rejection of excessive, simplistic ideology.

Crime is a complex problem. There are no simple solutions.
The solutions require embracing the complexity and building coalitions across diverse stakeholders.

This DA didn't do that.

We lost faith in the simple-minded approach he was taking.

Don't over-simplify hard problems.

This is the consequence of a fixed mindset.
Apparently the Russian leadership is composed of fixed-mindset men.

First day working at a standing desk! It took me about 4 years to get this whole system designed and fabricated. Finished the keyboard tray this weekend.
Next I'll design a keyboard tray that can be adjusted to every position.

From idea to reality! Just have to get the glass doors made and a glossy coat of paint.

After 9 years I have almost crossed the finish line on one of the last remaining projects for our renovation.
While satisfying, I can't express how much my body hurts right now after cutting, bending and sanding all that steel.

"Angel Flight" is the call sign for a USAF C-130, carrying a fallen hero on board. Their "salute" with flares looks like an angel with wings.

If we cannot find common ground on the solutions, we should, instead, find common ground on the problem.

And, the problem may include many parts; many problems, both big and small.

And, any component-problem may have smaller problems to debate or discuss.

There is common ground somewhere in that collection.

My other weekend project:

Amber Heard awarded $2M in compensatory damages

Damages: $10M + $5M

Defamatory statement: Yes

Actual malice: Yes

It's a good day.
Had a mtg with the US Patent Office. Our arguments were successful!
Fingers crossed on the next step!
