How'd you like to be the guy whose job it is to keep hammering on that metal every half second?

Not sure if this has been posted but here is a brief timeline of the recent events that lead up to this.




Nov. 21 - President Viktor Yanukovych's cabinet announces that they are abandoning an agreement that would strengthen ties with the EU, and instead seek closer cooperation with Moscow.

Nov. 30 - Police launch a brutal attack on protesters, detaining 35. Images of protesters bloodied by police truncheons spread quickly and galvanize public support for the demonstrators. A demonstration on Dec. 1 attracted around 300,000 people, the largest protest in Kiev since the Orange Revolution in 2004.

Dec. 17 - Russian President Vladimir Putin announces that Moscow will buy $15 billion worth of Ukrainian government bonds and allow for a sharp cut in the price Ukrainians will have to pay for Russian natural gas. Putin and Yanukovych claim that there were no conditions attached to the agreement, which did not require Ukraine to join a Russia-led free trade pact.

Jan. 22 - Two protesters die after being hit with live ammunition and the third after a fall during a confrontation between police and demonstrators manning barricades, the first protest deaths.

That's a text message that thousands of Ukrainian protesters spontaneously received on their cell phones today, as a new law prohibiting public demonstrations went into effect

The NY Times reports that the "Ukrainian government used telephone technology to pinpoint the locations of cell phones in use near clashes between riot police officers and protesters early on Tuesday." Near. Using a cell phone near a clash lands you on the regime's hit list.

Last night before I went to bed I saw some guy get lit up with rubber bullets. He ran out past the priests and started throwing rockets when then police let out a volley and you saw the guy hunch over and crawl away.

Now I wake up and they've set up a smokescreen at the barricade. I like these guys and gals. It looks very cold and very miserable.
