I really hate linking to the Daily Mail, but I can't help it this time. The British rag (thats right, I said it) reports that the Russians have successfully tested the world's largest non-nuclear bomb, wrestling that title from the US's 'Mother of all Bombs.'
From the article: "Last night a source close to the US National Security Council said it was a "matter of concern" that Moscow would develop such a huge weapon at a time when there was no obvious need. He added that the US would ask for an explanation. He said there was "no chance" that America would become involved in a new arms race with the Russians and that the US had no use for bombs larger than the ones already in its arsenal."
Phew. I think we can all sleep better at night knowing that some anonymous source swears that the US isn't gonna play Cold War II on this one.

putin also decided to dissolve the government and appoint a new PM ... i'm a little scared
I'm not so worried about his decision to dissolve the parliament, at least that is legal. What I am worried about is the fact that he has now basically handpicked his successor, and will probably maintain enormous amounts of control in the government beyond his term in office.
