Russian Special Ops Forces Capture Three British โSoldiersโ
Colonel Edward Blake and Lietenant Colonel Richard Carroll
If true, this adds a new twist to the war in Ukraine. I first heard this claim a couple of days ago on BORZZIKMANโs channelโฆ The Russians captured three Brits in a small town west of Odessa. I was leery of reporting it without additional confirmation.
Then I found another sourceโฆ the Eurasia Daily, which reported that Lieutenant Colonel Richard Carroll, and Colonel Edward Blake, both active-duty officers of the British Army, along with as as-yet unidentified Agent of British MI-6 (Intelligence) were captured during a daring raid by Russian Special Forces, in the city of Ohakiv. That city is shown on the scalable map below:

The Marxist religion has a god. It is named โWeโ, and it shares many characteristics with gods from other religions:
- You canโt see or touch We, but you are assured that it exists.
- We is all-powerful. We can accomplish anything We puts its mind to.
- You can talk to We, but you will rarely receive an answer.
- We makes the rules that the rest of us are then forced to adhere to.
- We is ineffable and inscrutable. You must not question the will of We.
- Those who step out of line in society will be judged by We.
Keep this in mind. Whenever you hear a Marxist speak the name of their god, now you know what they are talking about.

I just wish I knew that up front because I wasted the time and energy to download my old Twitter account data (and waiting the 24 hours) and going through the entire wizard/ steps that Cyd makes you walk through, only to be told at the very last step that the one thing I wanted to do I'd have to fork over an uncertain amount of money to actually do?
(There were no prices on the step in the wizard that told me I'd need to pay-up if I wanted to continue. Only that I must upgrade to "Pro" before continuing.)
Because had I known that originally, I wouldn't have bothered.
And I guess that's the design and intent.
Like I said, everyone deserves to monetize whatever shit they want.
I just wish I knew about it at the start so I could have made an informed decision.
Because right now I feel a little bit used.

Why Outsourcing Drives Singapore's Business Success
Outsourcing has become a cornerstone for Singapore businesses, from small startups to large corporations. Functions like corporate secretarial responsibilities, bookkeeping, and IT are increasingly handled by external experts.
Why outsource something as essential as secretarial services? It boils down to efficiency, cost savings, and reliability compared to managing everything internally.
The Constraints of In-House Compliance
Compliance is a core obligation for any Singapore business. ACRA filings, board resolutions, and shareholder updates are just the start. Hiring a full-time employee to handle corporate secretarial tasks might seem practical, but it's often inefficient.
For small or mid-sized firms, a dedicated hire means paying for a salary, benefits, and workspace for a role that may not demand constant attention. Outsourced secretarial services offer a smarter solution, providing access to a team of compliance specialists who handle everything from routine filings to complex tasks like director changes or share restructuring with expertise.
Time Better Spent on Growth
For business owners, time spent on compliance tasks is time not spent on strategy, clients, or innovation. Outsourcing corporate secretarial work allows entrepreneurs to focus on what drives their business forward.
This is particularly critical for startups or founders without deep regulatory knowledge. Singapore's rules, while clear, can be complex, and a single error can lead to penalties or delays. Professional secretarial services provide proactive support, ensuring deadlines are met and documents are accurate, freeing up mental space for growth.
Keeping Up with Regulatory Demands
Singapore's pro-business reputation is backed by strict regulations, especially in corporate governance and anti-money laundering. Even simple tasks, like updating shareholder details or issuing shares, require precise documentation to avoid issues.
Providers of secretarial services stay current with regulatory changes, ensuring compliance as rules evolve. In-house teams, often stretched across multiple roles, may miss critical updates, increasing the risk of errors.
The Risks of In-House Staff
Hiring an in-house employee for corporate secretarial tasks comes with challenges. Turnover, illness, or lack of specialized knowledge can disrupt operations. In smaller companies, employees often juggle compliance with other duties, leading to mistakes.
Outsourced secretarial services provide continuity. A team-based approach ensures seamless support, with experts stepping in as needed. Their experience with diverse company structures and regulations offers reliability that's hard to achieve with a single in-house hire.
Tailored Solutions for Diverse Needs
Singapore's business landscape is varied, from fintech startups to family enterprises and global subsidiaries. Not every company needs a full-time compliance team. Outsourced corporate secretarial services allow businesses to pay only for what they need, whether it's basic compliance or advanced support for restructuring or investor reporting.
This flexibility is a major advantage over in-house teams, which can be overstretched or underutilized depending on the company's stage.
Reliability Through Expertise
Concerns about outsourcing have diminished as Singapore's secretarial services providers prioritize transparency, offering real-time updates, clear pricing, and prompt communication. This reliability often outshines the capabilities of overworked in-house teams.
Outsourcing for Accuracy
Outsourcing isn't about cutting cornersโit's about doing things right. In Singapore's strict regulatory environment, precision in corporate secretarial tasks is critical to avoid fines or reputational harm. External providers bring specialized knowledge to ensure compliance is handled perfectly.
The Bottom Line
Singapore businesses face enough challenges without the added burden of managing compliance in-house. Outsourced secretarial services streamline operations, reduce risks, and let companies focus on their core goals. From startups to industry leaders, outsourcing is a proven strategy for staying compliant and thriving in a competitive market.

There are people rolling around online espousing ideas about autism/spectrum personality traits that, if taken seriously, would condemn basic healthy human personality traits to a 'disorder' and place people like Carl Sagan in a psych hospital for getting too excited about his special interest in science.
Meanwhile *actual* fascists have invaded the US government and are talking about making lists of autistic people, like Hitler and Dr Asperger before them. For some reason.
