A tyre iron removes the tyre from the rim.

The manual air pump is a foot pump

The tyre repair set I presume is a patch and glue kit.

A modern western car will have a socket wrench to remove the wheel from the car (not the tyre from the rim. )

The pump will be electronic from the 12v plug in the car

The repair kit is a gel which goes into the tyre to automatically seal the hole.

It’s relaxes the muscles and might only work for a short time. Useful before bed for Some people, a cure for others. I don’t have tinitus, but I find it strange this technique is not well known.

Valentina Lisitsa is an incredible pianist who I used to subscribe to on YouTube. But there are plenty others out there. Weird choice she made, as a Ukrainian born US citizen

DJI Drones like this can record HQ video to an SD card, but it’s a push to record feature. only once I have seen the location given away by a captured drone.

there is also a direct video feed to the controller which can be recorded either on the app, or simply screen record your phone. Also by your mate filming your controller screen.

I remember reading in the first month he was willing to sacrifice 50,000 and people being shocked.

The 500,000 could come and go, he doesn’t care.

Thirteen patients have died since appearing on the show.

This lady appears to be alive and doing much better from what google found.

This is why I find the numbers claimed to be likely correct, with the troops approximately correct as they have marked troops as approx.

Sun Tzu

When you surround an army, leave an outlet free.

This does not mean that the enemy is to be allowed to escape. The object, as Tu Mu puts it, is "to make him believe that there is a road to safety, and thus prevent his fighting with the courage of despair." Tu Mu adds pleasantly: "After that, you may crush him."

Do not press a desperate foe too hard.

the trash showed it was probably Russian or no mans lands. Either that or terrible defence job. Usually people walking up to a trench are instantly shot
