From Russia With Love: Bond-style spy gadgets up for sale
Julien's auction house in Beverly Hills is holding a one of a kind sale on Saturday, as it hosts a collection of KGB spy equipment. Highlights of the collection include a gun designed to look like a tube of lipstick, a secret hotel-room listening device from 1964, and a cigarette packet with hidden camera.
No mention of a free Martini with every purchase though.

′′Ivan Nikitich, come here, please." called General Shkuro. Kononov came up and stood at ease.
"With this contraption, my father was pulling me on the donkey." Shkuro said in Ukrainian, showing everyone the weaving of expensive Caucasian work, with a gilded cuttings.
′′And now I give it to my dear son, Kononov. Take it, Cossack! You have my blessing. You deserve it!"

A Boer Kommando in Southern Argentina, 1912
Some Afrikaners left South Africa after the fall of their republics: Transvaal & Orange Free State, following the Anglo-Boer War. The Kommando tradition is similar to that of a War Band. The standard weapon was used in the Anglo Boer was the Mauser imported from Germany. The Boers were famous for their understanding of nature, agriculture and accuracy - they took their Mauser with to Argentina. This is an account of a Boer Kommando eliminating a dangerous gang of Russian-Jews in Argentina.
