An army of Russian tanks were filmed thundering towards the Ukrainian border this week as tensions between the warring countries continued to escalate. Dozens of Vladimir Putin's modern tanks were seen arriving at a railroad station in Pokrovskoye in the Russia's southern Rostov region. The tanks were moved from cargo train platforms and deployed in a field near Matveyev Kurgan village - just 10km from the border with Ukraine. Russia regularly holds military drills in Rostov region involving its infantry, artillery and air force and has a number of military bases in the area. Earlier this week Russian politician Denis Voronenkov was shot by a gunman at the entrance of an upmarket hotel in Kiev, Ukraine, after fleeing his homeland last year. Images from the scene outside the hotel showed his wife, Maria Maksakova, breaking down as she saw her husband's body still on the pavement. Mr Voronenkov was killed around noon (10.00am GMT) and his bodyguard was also injured … [Read more...] about Vladimir Putin bulks up Russian forces in Ukraine by sending huge column of tanks to Ukrainian border

Of all the mysteries and injustices of the McDonald’s ice cream machine, the one that Jeremy O’Sullivan insists you understand first is its secret passcode. Press the cone icon on the screen of the Taylor C602 digital ice cream machine, he explains, then tap the buttons that show a snowflake and a milkshake to set the digits on the screen to 5, then 2, then 3, then 1. After that precise series of no fewer than 16 button presses, a menu magically unlocks. Only with this cheat code can you access the machine’s vital signs: everything from the volume of its milk and sugar ingredients to the temperature of the glycol flowing through its heating element to the meanings of its many sphinxlike error messages. “No one at McDonald’s or Taylor will explain why there’s a secret, undisclosed menu," O’Sullivan wrote in one of the first, cryptic text messages I received from him earlier this year. As O’Sullivan says, this menu isn’t documented in any owner’s manual for the Taylor digital … [Read more...] about They Hacked McDonald’s Ice Cream Machines—and Started a Cold War
