We walk a thin line between death and life…

The Russian Defense Ministry held a press conference to discuss the destruction of a Russian military aircraft with people on board off the coast of Syria, which happened at the same time that Israeli and French forces were mounting aerial attacks on targets in Syria.The Il-20 aircraft has been downed by Syrian military forces after Israel jets put it under attack off the Syrian coast, Russian Defense Ministry spokesman Maj. Gen. Igor Konashenkov stated. According to the spokesman, the Israeli jets delibe

So, it seems by what I know about war is that Israel used the Il-20 as cover and sent missiles to attack Syrian army positions. Israel knew full well that Syria would defend itself and let the Russian craft (only a cargo craft) take the hit…

You suck Israel….but then I have said that before about the Israel Gov…

Beautiful day and perfect to ride a bike…

We stopped near an oil pipeline to look at a broken tree, drink some water and discuss life in general….we decided to keep going and we ended up finding a deep dark wooded area, full of picnicking Russians… 😉

By the time we got homer we had gone just a hair shy of 40 kilometers…

FlashFire is the most advanced on-device firmware flasher available for rooted Android devices. It can flash full firmware packages from various manufacturers, as well as apply over-the-air (OTA) and ZIP updates – all while maintaining root, and without using a custom recovery. It also offers full device backup and restore functionalities in several formats. Relevant files can be stored on internal storage, SD cards, USB connected storage, or can even be streamed directly to and from your computer…

That above is where to find what I will talk about…

x7 Edge

Today I have concluded several weeks worth of serious flashing of Android ROMs, be they custom and or stock firmware. I have worked on three phones, all different as night and day….but all android…

I just finished my final flash on a Galaxy s7 Edge and I did it only with root, no recovery such as TWRP and or CWM. I had stock s7 Oreo recovery and just a simple root done by CF-Auto-Root….no install recovery to aid in flashing…

I just flashed a Sac23 ROM for the s7. I will stay with this ROM. This is the third time on this particular phone, I have flashed from a stock Oreo Android firmware and went straight to a custom ROM without anything but root! I wanted to verify that it was not a fluke…

This link https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/development has given me dozens of ROMs to flash and I flashed dozens only by using Flashfire. All worked within their limitations. Many of the ROMs are not worth being a daily driver, but the Sac23’s are…

The above phones are the other two phones I used to flash the same way…

I will not go into details how to do this, for if you are trying such experiments as flashing with Flashfire, you better know exactly what you are doing…exception is this information below…

Tell Flashfire to mount partitions read and write, before flashing. It was the only way I could get anything to work consistently…

Options

• Auto-mount – Mount common paths before running update. Not usually necessary. Enable for A/B device OTAs, disable for all other OTAs. Some versions of the Xposed installer require this option to be enabled.
• Mount /system read/write – Mount /system read/write by default, rather than read-only. Doing this only once may break future OTAs. Enable when flashing custom firmwares. Some versions of the Xposed installer require this option to be enabled.
• Restore boot and recovery images – Attempt to restore stock boot and recovery images before flashing. May be required for some OTAs. Disable for non-OTA updates.

SuperSU and Chainfire…

I do not tell you to do this and I expect you to do some serious homework before flashing Android in the first place. I have worked on Androids for many many years now and love a challenge. But, I have fried several phones in my time, called bricking them and some never come back to life…

This information is for someone who has TWRP’ed and CWM’ed your phones and flashed constantly like a monkey who swings through trees. I needed something different and needed to expand my knowledge…

I want to thank Chainfire for his development work on Android over the years….I have learned a lot…

Developers like Chainfire and Sac23 are the reason that us less intelligent have the ability to lean about things, such as Android…

Have a nice day…

GRU

So…

The two men who allegedly tried to murder the Skripal’s and allegedly murdered one other and tried accidentally killing several others in the same process. Allegedly are gay and allegedly sell health drugs to weightlifters and allegedly these drugs are steroids and allegedly they are Russian spies and allegedly they are specifically GRU spies and allegedly Putin sent them and allegedly they were set up by the MI6 and allegedly they smuggled the drugs into Europe and allegedly basically guilty of being Russian and allegedly….they were dead already…

MI6

Allegedly the probable story: They are part of the Russian (Gay Jewish) mafia making routine visits overseas. They travel to Europe for illegal business (drugs, prostitution, etc) The Brits know this and chose them as the patsies because MI6 knew they would not be able to come forward publicly to prove a legitimate purpose for being there. Putin wants nothing to do with them, but probably sent a message as he laughed, that they were on their own and needed to do the RT interview and make the best explanation for why they were there. Let the European or Russian media figure out the truth – I guarantee it will not show they are Russian agents…

{Maybe gay, drug runners and having been ruined for life by the British. But they are not Russian Agents and they just were Russians at the wrong place at the wrong time….All Russians (Maybe all foreigners?) are fingerprinted at the border as they cross and MI6 knew who they were a longtime ago…}

The bullshite from both sides (admittedly 75% from the British) could fertilize every farm on the planet….RT did a sloppy interview under pressure by Putin as he laughed and said, “I hope that they will show up and tell everything themselves. There is nothing particularly criminal there, I assure you,”

The real issue is; Britain has lied non-stop about the whole Skripal thingy…

Time to get some real reporting done and quit ALLEGEDLY speaking about it… (RT lets do your job!)

And I love it… 😉

A Soap Opera has got nothing on this….Putin is playing Britain like a violin…

Here is the interview by RT…

The perfection of allegedly…

Pryanyi Chai or Spicy Tea; now that winter is coming, it is time for traditional Russian warmup drinks. Did I just say Winter? I know, it is just Sept. 13th, but here in Russia, Autumn has arrived and it is time to get serious about Russian type foods. They are great for long hard winters…

This tea can be found while driving down the highways of Russia. When you enter a small village, look for the babushka sitting by the road. She will either be selling veggies in summer and or hot spicy tea, if the weather is getting cold. Makes the drive across endless Russia all the better…

Lets look at a great pick-me-up hot drink for those long winter cold nights…

Russian Spice Tea or Pryanyi Chai…

Ingredients: (Recipe is for a large group, adjust for smaller servings…)

15 tablespoons black tea leaves
3 tablespoons clove (whole)
4 tablespoons of zest of tangerine (Grated tangerine top layer peelings)
4 whole cinnamon sticks
4 quarts filtered water (one gallon)
1 cup honey
1/4 cup lemon juice (fresh preferred, but take what you can get…)

Make It:

Served from this in Russia… (Samovar)

Very simple; Place the tea leaves, cloves, zest and cinnamon sticks into a cheesecloth bag and tie the top tightly. Bring 2 quarts of water to a boil, add the bag, remove from the heat, and allow to steep, covered, for 10 minutes. Then add the rest of the water (total one gallon) and bring to a boil again…

After you let steep again for 10 minutes; Add the honey & lemon juice, stir and serve and or…

This tea may be made in advance and kept for two to three days if it is covered and refrigerated. Just warm up as needed…

Just cut ingredients in half to make smaller amounts. But….you will find on a cold day, that this tea disappears quickly…

Brrr it is cold today…

Now what an amazing country Russia is, and how about that Putin? They just keep on attacking America and lapdogs associated with America? (Below)

Even in China, Russia is in control….mind control…

Back to the video: How about all that caviar?

Yes, just like bears on unicycles, caviar flows in the Russian rivers. It is that plentiful…

It is true, I live here in Russia…

Joking aside, this is a great video and shows the future of the world….That is how friendship is built and supported….

U.S. officials suspect Russia in mystery ‘attacks’ on diplomats in Cuba, China

WASHINGTON — Intelligence agencies investigating mysterious “attacks” that led to brain injuries in U.S. personnel in Cuba and China consider Russia to be the main suspect, three U.S. officials and two others briefed on the investigation tell NBC News.The suspicion that Russia is likely behind the alleged attacks is backed up by evidence from communications intercepts, known in the spy world as signals intelligence, amassed during a lengthy and ongoing investigation involving the FBI, the CIA and other U.

Hey, yo! What’s up, yo?

Russian President Vladimir Putin has asked the two guys who allegedly tried to kill the invincible Skripal’s…

“We know who they are, we have found them,” Putin told the plenary session of the Eastern Economic Forum (EEF) in Vladivostok.

The Russian president noted that the “suspects” were civilians. “I hope that they will show up and tell everything themselves. There is nothing particularly criminal there, I assure you,” he said. Putin also urged the two individuals to talk to media.
