Russia touts essential role in Syria's advance against IS

Posted: 17 Sep 2017 09:06 PM PDT

Russia touts essential role in Syria's advance against ISAs the Islamic State group seems to crumble across Syria, a top Russian commander points to a pulverised tank once used by the jihadists as proof of his country's essential role in their demise. In recent months, Syrian troops have rolled IS back in the country's northern province of Aleppo, Hama and Homs in the centre, and most recently, Deir Ezzor in the east. Jihadists would pack anti-tank mines and TNT into the vehicles, retrofit them with protective armour, then detonate them at Syrian army positions.

Stanislav Petrov, the 'man who saved the world' dies at 77

Posted: 18 Sep 2017 06:48 AM PDT

Stanislav Petrov, the 'man who saved the world' dies at 77The former Soviet military officer credited with saving the world from nuclear destruction has died at the age of 77. Stanislav Petrov, a lieutenant colonel in the Soviet Air Defence Forces, was the officer on duty at the Soviet Union's early warning centre when malfunctioning computers signaled the United States had launched missiles at the country in September 1983. His decision to ignore warnings is credited with averting nuclear armageddon. Karl Schumacher, a German film maker who first publicised the story in the West, said in a statement that he learnt of Petrov's death when he tried to get in touch to wish him happy birthday. Petrov's son, Dmitry Petrov, told Mr Schumacher that his father had died on May 19. Stanislav Petrov was born in Vladivostok on September 7, 1939. On the night of September 26, 1983, he was on duty at the Soviet Union's early warning centre near Moscow when computers warned that the United States had fired five nuclear missiles at the country. The 1983 false alarm is perhaps the closest the world has come to nuclear war Credit:  Getty Images Contributor "The machine indicated the information was of the highest certainty," he later recalled. "On the wall big red letters burnt the word: START. That meant the missile had definitely been fired." He had just minutes to decide whether to assess the attack as genuine and inform the Kremlin that the United States was starting World War Three - or tell his commanders that the Soviet Union's early warning system was faulty. Guessing that a genuine American attack would have involved hundreds of missiles, he put the alarm down to a computer malfunction. Lt Col Petrov was vindicated when an internal investigation following the incident concluded that Soviet satellites had mistaken sunlight reflected on clouds for rocket engines. The Soviet government's policy in the event of a US nuclear attack was to launch an immediate and all-out retaliatory strike in accordance with the principle of Mutually Assured Destruction.  Although Petrov was feted by his colleagues and initially praised by superiors for his actions, he was not rewarded. He later complained that he was scolded by superiors for failing to complete a routine paperwork during the incident and had been scapegoated by generals embarrassed by the failure of the early warning system.   He took early retirement from the armed forces the following year and retired outside Moscow. The incident was only made public in 1998 with the publication of the memoirs of General Yury Vontintsev, Mr Petrov's superior at the time. In the 2014 documentary The Man Who Saved the World, Mr Petrov said: "All that happened didn't matter to me — it was my job. I was simply doing my job, and I was the right person at the right time, that's all."

Ford, Mahindra alliance reflects pressures on automakersBy Swati Bhat and Joseph White MUMBAI/DETROIT (Reuters) - Ford Motor Co and Indian vehicle maker Mahindra and Mahindra Ltd said on Monday they will launch a strategic alliance to counter challenges posed by fast-changing technology and global competition.

The absolute worst pumpkin-related food crimes

Posted: 17 Sep 2017 05:00 AM PDT

The absolute worst pumpkin-related food crimesSome pumpkin foods are delicious: fresh pumpkin cupcakes, for example, frosted with cream cheese icing, or crumbly, barely-sweet pumpkin scones. Pumpkin pie! Others are sick crimes. SEE ALSO: People are mad at Starbucks for its confusing rollout of the Pumpkin Spice Latte While the primary focus of pumpkin-season debate remains the Pumpkin Spice Latte (which is more delicious over ice, by the way), I'd like to posit that there are far more egregious pumpkin products out there. Of course, we can technically blame the PSL for the existence of all these bad, bad foods. So ... maybe the anger is justified? 1. Pumpkin cider I purchased a six-pack of pumpkin cider in the fall of 2013, eager to sip something cold (it was still hot outside) that still tasted like autumn incarnate. Instead, the pumpkin cider tasted exactly like vomit — not just vomit, the noun, but the actual act of vomiting. Image: Totalwine.com2. Pumpkin spice gum This one is doubly offensive: not only must you taste the cloying flavor of the gum, but so must everyone around you when it is on your breath for the rest of the day. Friends, not chewing this gum is a public service. Image: Amazon3. Pumpkin Spice Oreos One Mashable staffer and Pumpkin Spice Oreo survivor compared the specialty cookies to "a Yankee Candle melting in your mouth." Seems bad! Image: Amazon4. Pumpkin pie spice butter A sponsored post about Land O Lakes Pumpkin Pie Spice Butter Spread recommends that you slather it not only on toast and English muffins, but on roasted carrots and pork chops. And a lot of people seem to like the stuff, so it's probably fine, right?  Wrong. It is, again, way too sweet. Also, why would you put pumpkin spice butter on toast when cookie butter exists? Image: Land O Lakes5. Pumpkin spice oatmeal Pumpkin spice oatmeal is a bummer because it could have been subtle and nice, even wholesome. Instead, it is sickeningly sweet. A post shared by @doreenas_yums on Jul 22, 2017 at 5:22pm PDT 6. Pumpkin Spice Latte Peeps One of the best parts of fall is that Peeps, which are endorsed by Satan, aren't around to assail us. Unfortunately, Peeps has ruined this with Pumpkin Spice Peeps.  To add insult to injury, they are dipped in white fudge. Image: Peeps & Company7. Pumpkin spice candy corn Candy corn is already bad, but pumpkin spice candy corn is truly ghastly. It's an important reminder that life can always get worse! Image: Amazon WATCH: How to respond when your coworker asks you, "How was your weekend?"
