๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ The Shahed-136 is the Maxim gun of the era.

Endlessly copied, refined, and alters the tempo of combat itself.

The Maxim gun established a template so useful that many major power reverse-engineered or licensed it. And created a cascade of near-identical weapons in rival states.

Proliferation through simplicity. A trait also shared with the AK-47, Stalhelm helmets, muskets, and pikes.

The Holy Lance (also known as the Lance of Longinus, the Lance of Mauritius, or the Spear of Destiny) is the oldest piece of the imperial regalia of the kings and emperors of the Holy Roman Empire. It is said to contain a piece of a nail from the cross of Christ (the Holy Nail). According to legend, the lance belonged to Mauritius, the leader of the Theban Legion, or, according to other sources, to the Roman centurion Longinus, who used it to verify the death of Jesus, which is why it is also said to be soaked with his holy blood.

At times it was the most important piece of the insignia, later it was replaced by the imperial crown. The tip of the lance was kept in a cavity in the crossbeam of the imperial cross. A ruler who possessed this lance was considered invincible. It was a visible sign that his power came from God and that he was the representative of Christ.

THE SECRET GUIDE TO WORD MAGIC
Spelling is called spelling. Cursive is called cursive. And the most dangerous man in comedy just wrote a book explaining why.
Owen Benjamin grew up hiding under a cardboard desk to survive a nuclear blast, eating margarine because the food pyramid said so, and learning about heroin from a cop who made him act out an overdose in school. He was taught he descended from a primate through random mutation, that he was spinning on a ball of liquid nickel inside an explosion that came from nothing, and that the stars he saw at night were already dead. Then he was tested on everything and told he was smart because he could repeat all of it.
He became a comedian instead.
How to Slay a Wizard is about the people who run the tricks, the tricks themselves, and the one lie at the root of every spell ever cast on a living man or woman. It is not a political book. It is not a religious book. It is a book about manipulation, who does it, how it works, and why it requires your participation to be effective.
Starting from the dictionary definition of "wizard" and working outward through the mechanics of hypnotic language, the economics of fiat currency, the psychology of the con, the architecture of propaganda, and the spiritual sickness that turns a liar into a monster, the Big Bear dismantles every major spell of the modern age and shows you exactly what they have in common. Every spell follows the same structure. Every spell requires the same ingredient. And that ingredient is you.
This book will teach you what a wizard is, what an alchemist is, and why the difference matters. It shows how spells are structured like jokes that never deliver the punchline. It explains why the most forbidden word in America is forbidden and what the vampire myth is actually describing. It tells you how to spot a liar before the lies take root. And at the very end, the book exposes the one lie that has to be believed in order for any of it to work on you. It is so simple you might laugh. That's the point.
Once you see the secret spells, you will never stop seeing them. And then the wizards can no longer deceive you

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Disaster looms over the city of Corpus Christi, Texas, as the Corpus Christi Lake has seen its lowest water level in decades.

City officials expect to reach a โ€œwater emergencyโ€ within months and run out of water next year. That would halt jet fuel deliveries to Texas airports, hike gas prices and trigger a local economic disaster without precedent, former officials say.

Without significant rainfall, Corpus Christi is headed for a โ€œwater emergencyโ€ within months and total depletion of the system next year, according to the cityโ€™s website. โ€œThe impacts are going to be felt tremendously through the state, if not internationally,โ€ said Sean Strawbridge, former CEO of the Port of Corpus Christi Authority, the nationโ€™s top port for crude oil exports, in a 40-minute interview Thursday. โ€œThis should be no surprise to anybody. We were talking about this over a decade ago.โ€

Other current and former officials, alarmed at what they call a lack of preparations, have suggested the potential for an economic crisis involving mass layoffs, disruption of fuel supplies and billions of dollars in emergency spending to avoid an evacuation of the city.

โ€œThe water shortage in the Coastal Bend is the result of a historic five-year drought,โ€ it said. โ€œCurrently, the City of Corpus Christi has $1 billion in City Council-approved and funded water projects underway to address our water needs. The City remains committed to ensuring water security for the more than 500,000 residents and our commercial and industrial customers.โ€

Depletion of this regionโ€™s reservoirs would lead to โ€œcontrolled depressionโ€ for the local economy, โ€œmass unemploymentโ€ and โ€œindustrial total shutdown,โ€ according to a two-page report by Don Roach, former assistant general manager of the San Patricio Municipal Water District, which supplies many of the regionโ€™s large industrial water users.

That includes refineries operated by Flint Hills Resources, Valero and Citgo that provide jet fuel to Texas airports and meet much of the stateโ€™s daily demand for gasoline.

Besides the historic drought, much of the water is being consumed by the oil and plastics refineries who need to cool down the equipment to prevent overheating and explosions hitting their machinery. The Corpus Christi city authorities tried to supplement the water supply by building desalinisation plants but local NIMBY opposition saw these plans scrapped in 2019 and nothing has been done to fix the city's water issues since.

"The Missouri Conference had no knowledge of the individualโ€™s association with Mr. Epstein...No information indicating this association was disclosed in any of those reports. The Bishop or district superintendent were not contacted about the individualโ€™s interest in or acceptance of the Epstein-related position.

"Clergy are called to uphold the highest standards of spiritual and moral leadership. Concerns of this nature are taken seriously and require careful review. We recognize the deep harm connected to Mr. Epsteinโ€™s crimes and remain in prayer for survivors who deserve healing and justice."
