death tribble Posted March 13 Report Share Posted March 13 Michael Culver who played Captain Needa in The Empire Strikes Back has died aged 85. He was also in the Cadfael series as the strict Prior. And in Secret Army's first two series he was the head of the Luftwaffe police. I once saw him in Hyde Park when there was a Japanese festival. He was playing Go as it was being demonstrated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unclevlad Posted March 22 Report Share Posted March 22 Oh man.... https://www.cnn.com/2024/03/22/europe/crocus-moscow-shooting/index.html NYT indicated Quote The U.S. Embassy in Moscow issued a security alert on March 7, warning that its personnel were “monitoring reports that extremists have imminent plans to target large gatherings in Moscow, to include concerts.” EDIT: the embassy further explained that "extremists" did NOT refer to Ukraine...that it was something totally separate. They note the owner of the facility is Aras Agaralov, an Azerbaijani billionaire sometimes described as one of Putin's oligarchs, so that could certainly be the motive. We'll likely never know for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unclevlad Posted March 26 Report Share Posted March 26 The only slightly positive point is, the ship mayday'd in time, so traffic was blocked from entering the bridge before the collision. Unfortunately, there were still vehicles that'd started crossing before the blockade could be erected, and clearly, some didn't have enough time to cross. OMG....this is...a mind-blowing pic. Has to be well after the fact because the collision was also very early in the morning... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
