Putin’s lifelong dream was to somehow separate the US from NATO. But how to break up a strong alliance that stood for 80 years and continued to expand? There really was only one way to do it, he figured it out a decade ago, and played the long game. Now his guy will do it.

A Viz letter reading as folows - a-hem - I wonder if any of your readers can help me remember the title of a film I saw as a child. I don't recall much of the plot, but it was mostly about men in stetson hats riding horses and shooting at each other. It was set in the past, I think, possibly in America. Can anyone help?

I’ve always had the fear that Ukraine would end up like the Spanish Civil War, with the forces of democracy overwhelmed by fascistic alliances. It’s still in the balance. Trump’s support for Putin is like Mussolini and Hitler’s for Franco. But at least this time France and the UK are not neutral

River Thames: pony grazing the river bank. Taken on 6 August 2014. More info in Alt Text. 📷 #photography #photograph #photo #pony #semi-wild #grass #cloud #RiverThames #Thames #river #bank #NikonD7000

Landscape format. A view of the south bank of the River Thames. The grass bank slants slowly upward from left to right; at the top of the bank and to the right of the image, a gray pony is grazing. Above the pony and filling the rest of the image, puffy clouds are massing. Beyond Gravesend, Kent, where the river defences end, the river bank is largely grassland, raised slightly before the foreshore, with lower marshland immediately inland. There was a herd (?) of semi-wild ponies, often numbering 30 -40, which roamed and grazed along several miles of the river. I passed them often; they weren't much interested in me so I'd say they were no risk...I don't know why they were there, although, as it's not unusual to place grazing animals on grassy places where people roam/hike/wander (they keep the grass short) I suppose that's why. I always enjoyed seeing and hearing them.

Gravesend, Kent: Gaz 21 Volga. Taken on 10 September 2013. More info in Alt Text. 📷 #photography #photograph #photo #Gravesend #AlbionParade #Kent #Gaz #Gaz21Volga #car #NikonD7000

Landscape format. Taken on 10 September 2013. A car, parked at the corner of Albion Parade, Gravesend, Kent. Albion Parade is a street of run down workshops in Gravesend, close to the River Thames. Behind the car is a stucco wall, to uts left the same, but with a doorway, then a window, boarded over. The window has a cartoon figure with a roll-up cigarette in its mouth, pethaps a spliff...the car is parked on an area with square paving and tufts of grass. The car itself is a Russian Gaz 21 Volga, a medium size saloon, quite attractive to my eyes but in need of some renovation, like the place it is parked. I don't know what the car was doing there or what happened to it: I didn't see it again. I hope it was someone's project and it has been restored to its full glory. The River Thames, which Gravesend is 'upon' is the longest river entirely in England, as the Volga is the longest river in Russia. Taken using a Nikon D7000 with a 18.0-105.0 mm f/3.5-5.6 kit lens.

Bike riding in the River Thames. Taken on 3 September 2013. More info in Alt Text. 📷 #photography #photograph #photo #bicycle #bike #mud #RiverThames #Thames #NikonD7000

Landscape format, black and white. A bicycle in the River Thames, low tide, so resting on the mud, surrounded by water. Pieces of cloth are tangled up with the handlebars and behind the pedals. It may be there as the result of an innocent experiment to measure how far, if at all, a person can ride upon a tidal river, over water and/or deep mud; or it may have been put there by a miscreant, perhaps not even the owner of the bicycle. Taken using a Nikon D7000 with a Tamron 70.0-300.0 mm f/4.0-5.6 lens.

Woodland, for me, is an altogether different world when the fog rolls in. It's deeps and mysterious and enchanting. I see the same place through different eyes. Like looking at a landscape for the first time. #Photography #BlackAndWhite #Monochrome #LandscapePhotography #Woodland #Fog

This is a black and white image of a foggy woodland scene. In the background you can see a bright light, masking out the distant trees. In the foreground you can see a number of long, thin trees in different shapes and angles.

For Otter, morning was a time to transition into the day. Not starting too abruptly, preferring a little reflection time. Time to contemplate what lay ahead, the joys that came before, and most importantly, this moment she was in. On reflection, she thought mornings were really quite lovely.

BLOG: Putin & Trump's efforts to seal a deal on Ukraine are similar to Molotov & Ribbentrop's Pact of August '39. Both involve authoritarian Russia and a fascist Western power. Both ignore the rest of Europe and the victim nation, Ukraine, then Poland. Do NOT ignore. www.jandehn.com/post/molotov...
