From hockey players to world finances. It was a war crime with soldiers in wartime. What am I talking about?
Exploitive actions against a power imbalanced female presence.
You could be shot under the right circumstances.
Grooming was blooming
particularly for espionage—is a dark intersection of military law and shifting social attitudes. Historically, the execution of women was often met with more public outcry than that of men, yet “arbitrary” or retaliatory sentences were still common when the perceived threat to the state was high.Regarding your specific request for names and cases of arbitrary or controversial wartime executions:
Executed by Their “Own Side” or AlliesIt is rare for a country to execute its own female spies during a war unless the charge is treason (switching sides) or if they were double agents.
* Ethel Rosenberg (USA, 1953):
While technically during the Cold War/post-WWII era, her execution is the most famous example of a woman put to death by her own country for espionage (passing atomic secrets to the USSR). Her sentence is often called arbitrary because evidence later suggested her role was minor compared to her husband’s, and her execution was used as leverage to get him to confess.
* Mata Hari (Margaretha Zelle) (France, 1917):
Though a Dutch national, she was executed by a French firing squad during WWI. The case against her was incredibly thin; many historians argue she was a scapegoat for French military failures. Her “trial” was closed to the public, and she was executed primarily to boost French domestic morale.
* Milada Horáková (Czechoslovakia, 1950): A member of the anti-Nazi resistance during WWII, she was later executed by her own government (the Communist regime) on fabricated charges of conspiracy and treason. Her “judicial murder” involved a 13-minute strangulation.
2. Spies Executed by the Enemy
In many cases, women working for their own side (e.g., the Resistance) were executed by the occupying power under “arbitrary” military laws that bypassed civilian protections.
* Noor Inayat Khan (UK/SOE): A British radio operator of Indian descent. She was betrayed, captured by the Gestapo, and executed at Dachau in 1944. Her execution was arbitrary in that she was never given a formal trial; she was simply shot in the back of the head upon arrival at the camp.
* Edith Cavell (UK, 1915):
A British nurse in German-occupied Belgium. She was executed by a German firing squad for helping Allied soldiers escape. Her death caused a global scandal because, as a nurse and a woman, international “chivalric” norms of the time suggested she should have been spared.
Executions of Soldiers
While rape has often been used as a weapon of war with total impunity, there are documented cases where soldiers were executed by their own military to maintain discipline or for political optics.
Between 1942 and 1945, the US Army executed over 50 of its own soldiers for rape in the European theater. However, these sentences were famously arbitrary and racially biased:
* Louis Till:
An African American soldier (and father of Emmett Till) executed in Italy in 1945 for rape and murder. His case, like many involving Black GIs, lacked the rigorous defense afforded to white soldiers.
* The Shepton Mallet Executions: At this US-run prison in England, 18 American soldiers were executed (mostly for rape or murder). Historians note that Black soldiers were disproportionately sentenced to death compared to white soldiers who committed similar crimes.
* Soviet Union (Late WWII):
While the Red Army is infamous for mass rapes during the invasion of Germany, Stalin occasionally ordered summary executions of his own soldiers for “excesses” purely to maintain a veneer of discipline in specific units. These were often “arbitrary” in the sense that one soldier might be shot for a single theft, while another could commit multiple rapes without punishment.

There’s a few things you can do if you get these creatures. Sleeping with your clothes on doesn’t help.
Using a hair dryer on where they might have laid eggs helps pulling your furniture back. Especially your bed from the wall helps! These creatures like vertical climbs that’s the way they go and putting under your bed legs a bowl or some sort of element that can frustrate them. Will keep them off your bed and they’re only there for your blood.
There’s a debate on whether you should squeeze them dead when you catch them, cuz if they’re big enough to be seen. They’ve got a lot of blood in them and there’s pheromones in that either attract or deter them depending on who you talk to.
You can kill them in your bedding by washing your bedding in hot water and drying it in at the hottest temperatures.
Recent research from the Science University of Malaysia (USM) in Penang has highlighted a fascinating, if slightly unsettling, breakthrough in forensic science:
The use of tropical bed bugs (Cimex hemipterus) as “crime scene spies.”The research, led by entomologist Assoc. Prof. Dr. Abdul Hafiz Ab Majid, suggests that because bed bugs stay within 20 feet of their feeding site and cannot fly, they act as tiny, localized biological reservoirs for human DNA.1. How the DNA is Extracted and IdentifiedWhen a person (victim or suspect) is bitten, the bed bug ingests a small amount of blood (about 1.5 to 5.3 microliters). Forensic scientists can then: * Crush the bug to extract the blood from its gut. * Use STR (Short Tandem Repeat) Analysis: This is the standard DNA profiling used in crime labs to match a specific individual. * Use SNP (Single Nucleotide Polymorphism) Analysis: This allows for “phenotypic profiling.” Even if a direct match isn’t found in a database, scientists can determine the person’s gender, eye color, hair color, and skin tone.2. How Long Does the DNA Last?The timeline for DNA viability inside a bed bug is critical for investigators. According to the Malaysian study: * Immediately after feeding (Day 0): A full genetic profile can be recovered. * Up to Day 5: Approximately 70% of the DNA markers (STRs) remain intact, which is usually enough for a definitive identification. * Up to Day 45: This is the outer limit. While the DNA has significantly degraded by this point, researchers can still retrieve partial profiles—often enough to determine physical traits like hair and eye color.3. Why Use Bed Bugs?In Malaysia, they refer to bed bugs as musuh dalam selimut (“the enemy in the blanket”). They are considered superior to mosquitoes for forensics because: * They stay put: A mosquito might bite a suspect and then fly a mile away. A bed bug will hide in a mattress seam or headboard crack within the same room. * They are survivors: They can live for months without another meal, effectively preserving the evidence of the last person they bit. * Hard to clean: While a criminal might wipe away bloodstains or fingerprints, they rarely think to search the crevices of a bed frame for tiny insects that may have bitten them while they were waiting or sleeping at the scene.This technique is particularly useful in cases where a suspect has occupied a “hideout” or hotel room for a short period.Would you like me to find more details on the specific 2024–2025 updates to this research, or perhaps a different forensic entomology topic?
By the way it bit it when without an itch.
Inject by stealth a quick ansetic.
Done buy breakfast, lunch and supper.
All three marks did strike red. and walked away with dread
A detective that only works by night
And then by day hides in fright but for 45 days keeps your picture ready to post.K
Silent Witness
In Malaysia, the term musuh dalam selimut (the enemy in the blanket) has taken on a literal forensic meaning. As of early 2026, researchers at Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) in Penang have solidified their findings that the tropical bed bug (Cimex hemipterus) is a near-perfect “silent witness” for solving crimes.Here is the breakdown of the latest forensic data on how these bugs are being used:1. The “DNA Reservoir” EffectBed bugs are essentially tiny, walking vials of evidence. Unlike mosquitoes, which can bite a suspect and fly a mile away, bed bugs are geographically restricted. They typically move no more than 6 meters (20 feet) from their feeding site.If a suspect or victim is bitten in a specific room, the bug—and the DNA inside it—stays in that room.
2. DNA Identification
TimelinesThe USM study, led by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Abdul Hafiz Ab Majid, established exactly how long the “clock” runs on this biological evidence: * Day 0 (Immediate): Investigators can recover a 100% complete genetic profile. This includes both STR (Short Tandem Repeat) markers for direct identification and SNP (Single Nucleotide Polymorphism) markers for physical traits.
* Day 5 to 14: The success rate for a full profile remains high. By Day 14, researchers still see a 66.67% success rate in identifying the blood as human and linking it to a specific individual.
* Up to Day 45:
This is the current scientific limit. While the DNA is heavily degraded, it is still sufficient for phenotypic profiling. Even without a direct match in a database, scientists can determine the person’s: * Gender * Eye Color * Hair Color * Skin Tone3. “Arbitrary” or Hidden EvidenceIn cases of “clean” crime scenes—where a suspect has wiped away fingerprints or used bleach to destroy bloodstains—bed bugs are often overlooked.
* The “Spy” in the Crevice: Because bed bugs hide in headboard cracks, mattress seams, and even electrical outlets, they often survive a suspect’s attempt to sanitize a scene.
* Mixed Profiles:
Recent 2025/2026 updates show that field-collected bugs often contain mixed DNA profiles, meaning they can provide a timeline of everyone who has stayed in a hideout or hotel room over the past month.
4. Legal Status (2026 Update)
While the science is now robust, USM researchers are currently working to have these protocols validated for courtrooms. As of early 2026, bed bug DNA is primarily used as an investigative lead rather than primary evidence in Malaysian courts, helping police narrow down suspects in complex murder cases where traditional biological traces are missing.
Next Step:AI
I can provide more detail on phenotypic profiling—specifically how they reconstruct a person’s face from just the speck of blood inside an insect. Would you like me to look into that?
Maybe another day…

The relationship between the Revelstoke Grizzlies and the Merritt Centennials has quickly intensified into a premier KIJHL rivalry, fueled by back-to-back playoff meetings following Merritt’s transition from the BCHL in 2024. As they enter Game 3 of their 2026 best-of-seven series, the narrative is one of a “rematch with a physical edge”; the Grizzlies eliminated the Centennials in five games during the 2025 postseason, a defeat that prompted Merritt to intentionally “get bigger” in the off-season to match Revelstoke’s notorious grit. While Revelstoke entered this year as the top seed in the Bill Ohlhausen Division, the gap has narrowed significantly, evidenced by their 5–4 overtime thriller in Game 1 and a series of high-penalty regular-season matchups. As the series shifts to the Nicola Valley Memorial Arena for Game 3, the Centennials are leaning on their home-ice “battle culture” to disrupt the Grizzlies’ momentum, turning a once-unbalanced pairing into a heavyweight fight where every “dive” into the corners is a test of Merritt’s revamped physical identity against Revelstoke’s championship experience.
At 21:06 The score is tied three-three with less then 4 minutes. Gone out of a third…
It’s always a good idea to seek out the silver linings. Here is a roundup of some wholesome and positive news from today, Monday, March 9, 2026.Nature & Conservation * Buffalo Restoration Milestones: A new report from the InterTribal Buffalo Council highlights a major success in ecological and cultural restoration.

200 Million DollaLeon Black is a prominent figure in the worlds of private equity, finance, and art. He is best known as the co-founder of Apollo Global Management, one of the world’s largest alternative investment firms.Here is a breakdown of his career and impact:1. Finance & Apollo Global Management * The Drexel Years: Black began his career at the investment bank Drexel Burnham Lambert, where he rose to head the Mergers & Acquisitions department. He worked closely with Michael Milken during the “junk bond” era of the 1980s. * Co-Founding Apollo: After Drexel’s collapse in 1990, Black co-founded Apollo Global Management. Under his leadership, Apollo became a powerhouse in leveraged buyouts, distressed debt, and credit. * Step Down: He stepped down as CEO and Chairman of Apollo in 2021 following an independent review of his professional ties to Jeffrey Epstein. While the review found no evidence of involvement in Epstein’s criminal activities, the reputational pressure led to his departure.2. Art Patronage and CollectionBlack is one of the world’s most prolific art collectors. His collection is estimated to be worth billions of dollars. * The Scream: In 2012, he famously purchased Edvard Munch’s The Scream for nearly $120 million, which was a record-breaking price at the time. * MoMA: He served as the chairman of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York for several years, a position he held until 2021.3. Current VenturesSince leaving Apollo, Black has focused on: * Elysium Management: His family office, which manages his personal wealth and investments. * Philanthropy: Through the Black Family Foundation, he has donated significantly to cancer research (specifically melanoma) and the arts.Would you like me to look into the current performance of Apollo Global Management or explore his recent philanthropic initiatives?
As of early March 2026, both Apollo Global Management and Leon Black’s personal legacy are navigating a period of significant turbulence, marked by market volatility and resurfaced legal scrutiny.1. Apollo Global Management: Performance & ChallengesWhile Apollo remains a titan in the alternative asset space, it has faced a difficult start to 2026: * Stock Volatility: The stock (APO) hit a 52-week low in early March 2026, trading around $103–$105. This followed a sharp decline of approximately 21% since February 1st, 2026. * Operational Hits: The firm was impacted by a $400 million fraud-related write-down at its subsidiary, MFS, and a dividend cut at its affiliate, MidCap Financial. * Growth Outlook: Despite the stock’s dip, management remains aggressive, projecting 20%+ Fee Related Earnings (FRE) growth for 2026. As of late 2025, the firm managed approximately $938 billion in assets (AUM), nearing the $1 trillion milestone. * Renewed Legal Scrutiny: A new class-action lawsuit was initiated in early 2026, alleging that Apollo failed to disclose certain communications between leadership (including Black and current CEO Marc Rowan) and Jeffrey Epstein, which has weighed on investor confidence.2. Leon Black’s Philanthropy & Recent NewsLeon Black has used his family office, Elysium Management, and the Black Family Foundation to shift his public narrative toward major charitable commitments: * $200 Million Women’s Initiative: Black has continued to fulfill a major pledge of $200 million toward initiatives promoting gender equality and supporting survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault. * Medical Research: He remains a primary funder of the Melanoma Research Alliance (MRA) and the Foundation for OCD Research (FFOR), which he co-founded with a $25 million grant. * Veterans & Education: The Black family continues to fund graduate fellowships for U.S. veterans at Harvard (Kennedy, Business, and Law schools) and remains a major donor to Dartmouth College, where a visual arts center bears his name. * The “Epstein Files” (2026): Newly released government documents in February 2026 sparked fresh media coverage regarding how Black leveraged his multi-billion-dollar art collection for tax and estate planning. While Black maintains these dealings were purely professional, the reports have kept his past associations in the headlines.Comparison of Financial Health vs. Headline Risk| Metric/Issue | Status as of March 2026 ||—|—|| Total AUM | ~$938 Billion (Robust growth) || Stock Price | Down ~21% YTD (Market “liquidity panic”) || Philanthropy | Active $200M commitment to women’s causes || Legal Status | New shareholder lawsuits regarding disclosure |I’ve noted your interest in this topic and will keep the word “dive” under advisement for our future discussions. Would you like me to monitor the specific outcomes of the 2026 shareholder lawsuits against Apollo as they develop?
Hey Merit what do you say?
