Former world chess champion and currently opposition activist Garry Kasparov urged the West not to recognize the outcome of the parliamentary elections in Russia. Putin's regime has practically completed the transformation from the so-called hybrid regime into full-fledged totalitarianism," Kasparov said. He refers to the statistics of sentences "for thoughtcrime", such as posts and "likes" on social networks." Yet, the former chess champion did not illustrate his point of view either with any examples or numbers. According to Kasparov, those who doubt may watch the intensity, with which the propaganda machine works to brainwash people. In today's Russia, totalitarianism is brutal reality, Garry Kasparov concludes. It appears, though, that the author of the thesis is not too convinced of its credibility, but he resorts to another question - the elections in the Crimea and Sevastopol.

The Kremlin, Kasparov believes, will seek to use those elections as a tool for legitimizing the annexation of the peninsula.It is imperative the international community should not recognize the results of the upcoming elections. In this situation, the participation in electoral procedures is tantamount to complicity in the legalization of stealings. The appearance of a few opposition deputies in the Duma (can be possible only with the approval from the authorities) will make the situation even worse, as, among other things, it will allow the Kremlin to use this impotent opposition in the international arena as a pseudo-democratic facade that covers the totalitarian nature of the regime," Kasparov said on Liberty radio station. Actually, all those passages substantiate the main idea of ​​the analysis of the political situation in Russia from the ex-chess player: "When the Russian government has eliminated almost all internal threats with the help of repressions and manipulations, perhaps the only way to change the situation is to put pressure from the outside."

"Today, it is difficult to formulate a clear algorithm, the implementation of which could lead to the elimination of Putin's regime in the foreseeable future, but at first, one needs to at least abandon the actions that reinforce the regime," Garry Kasparov believes. In 2012, Garry Kasparov predicted a "massive explosion" that, as he believed, was to happen in the next two or three years. He promised that the explosion would cost Russia a lot, "because Putin will not go away due to his unpopularity and defeat in the elections."parrot ar drone sixaxisIt is worth mentioning that prior to the Duma elections in 2011, Mr. Kasparov was much more optimistic. storm drone 6 compass calibrationHe did not rely solely on pressure from the US and the EU. macdev drone dx orange camo

Back then, Kasparov supported the idea of ​​election boycott. He believed that a sharp drop in turnout on election day would not have left the Russian authorities indifferent to what had happened.Of course, the boycott had not materialized. A few years before that, Garry Kasparov did not mind taking part in the presidential election in 2008 as a single opposition candidate.He explained his intentions with the onset of dictatorship in Russia. parrot ar drone reichweiteHe did try to become a candidate, but he could not even reach the signature collection stage of the process. black ops 2 dragonfire drone for saleAccording to Kasparov, the only way to change the political situation in Russia in 2016 is external pressure. ar drone ebay annunci

Introducing M-Series Next Generation Premium Maritime Thermal Night Vision Cameras

FLIR is now pleased to announce that the M-Series pan/tilt multi-sensor system design has been re-engineered to offer additional functionality, improved performance, and enhanced situational awarenessThis year I attended the SOMA Conference for the first time as an actual SOMA member. While I’ve been going to SOMA for the past three years, its always been limited to the Expo. There’s a lot of value in attending the Expo, but now I know the break out sessions are the true blood of the conference. I would HIGHLY encourage anyone involved in “tactical medicine” to join SOMA. An added perk is that SOMA has joined forces with the Journal of Special Operations Medicine (JSOM) and all SOMA members will now receive the journal as part of your SOMA membership. I’d like to point out I’m writing this article from my personal notes as I wanted to attend as a “first responder” and not in a direct media capacity. I wanted to be able to focus on the things I found important and not have the pressure of trying to “report” on what I saw there, so this article is a culmination of those shorthand notes. 

I take full responsibility for any errors that may come up as a result and encourage anyone who attended to address any corrections in the comments below. Since we want to get you the latest TCCC / C-TECC updates first, this article will cover changes to TCCC / C-TECC. The follow-up article will cover things I thought were interesting during the TEMS breakout sessions. There were a few SOF breakouts which would have been great to sit in on, but I wanted to stay in my lane and get the most out of the TEMS sessions. There are four main updates to the TCCC guidelines. While some of this may have been in the works and you may have seen them already, these updates were confirmed by LTC Mabry himself. Also new is that JSOM will now push all new TCCC information and updates. *A quick edit that I wanted to add as of 12-21-13. The reason the TCCC guidelines have not been updated formally is that the person in charge of completing the updates has been “laid off” due to the sequestration.

Until the funding comes back the December updates will not show up. I wanted to put that out there in case anyone is waiting around for something formal to present to your COC or other reasons. Dr. Dave Callaway discussed updates to what’s happening on the TEMS side of the house. Most of these were administrative in nature, but it’s important to know that there’s a big shift coming to get EMS and Fire personnel into the “hot zone” and setting up Rescue Task Force tactics, I’ll touch on that more later. Dr. Callaway also went over specific updates to the Adult TECC guidelines as follows: For pediatric guidelines (JSOM Winter 2013): TECC goals listed by Dr. Callaway:  and for current TECC guidelines go Here. Stay tuned for the follow-up article with my thoughts on the TEMS break out sessions. Here’s a quick rundown of things I’ll be covering: Note: Please share all questions in the comments below, as I won’t be answering questions posted on social media.
