THE COLD WAR isn't over for Anatoly Golitsyn. Since last summer's failed coup in Moscow, he has been churning out memos for the CIA, warning them of what he regards as the true import of the tumultuous events taking place in the former Soviet Union. It is all "pretense," he says -- an elaborate exercise in strategic deception, designed to gull the West into embracing what is still an evil empire, still run behind the scenes by communist ideologues. Mikhail Gorbachev is in on the scheme. And so, too, says Golitsyn, is Boris Yeltsin. "At the end, when they win," Golitsyn declares, "they {will} get rid of capitalists forever." Golitsyn, you may remember, is the KGB defector whose assertions about Soviet moles at Langley once threw the CIA into a turmoil. The great mole hunt, actively pursued by the late CIA counterintelligence chief James J. Angleton, Golitsyn's indefatigable sponsor, lasted more than a decade, but never unearthed a single mole at the agency. According to the recently published "Cold Warrior" by Tom Mangold, a detailed study of Angleton's work, Golitsyn was actually a "minor and undistinguished KGB officer" whose paranoid fingerpointing ruined the careers of many of the CIA's finest officers and blackened the credentials of genuine Soviet defectors who threatened his standing.

Everything is over for Golitsyn. He died 10 years ago.

Go get a source that is not just another discredited conspiracy theorist. Newsweek, what a source. The whole damn magazine sold in 2010 for one dollar, $1.00. It ceased print publication in 2012. https://www.glaad.org/mediaawards/20/factsanfigures https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Schwartz_(author) Tony Schwartz was full of shit then, he is full of shit now.
Credited co-author of WHAT, Nolu Clump?
As full of shit as he was last year saying, "Trump's presidency is effectively over. Would be amazed if he survives till end of the year. More likely resigns by fall, if not sooner." Indeed, nearly as full of shit as you. Epicly full of shit.

As may be seen, disregarding gravity, if the bullet flew downward at the specified 33º from a height of 338 feet, it would fly a straight line of sight path into the ground at ~520 feet from the Mandalay Bay at ground level.

You're almost right - I've been meaning to take another look at the angle with a model in Google Sketchup... which says At 1290' from a height of 338' is -14.7 Damn, you are more screwed up than I thought. Now you are presenting a triangle with side a being 338 feet, side b being 1290 feet 7 inches (1290.5833 ft), and an hypotenuse of 1009 ft 4 in. I positively can't remember the last triangle I saw where the hypotenuse was shorter than one of the sides. Your Klingon math is magic, and Google Sketchup is a miracle worker. If side a is 338 ft, and the angle of elevation of 14.7º rises to that height of 338 ft, side b will be 1264.283557 feet. So, the hypotenuse is impossible, and side b is whack by 26 feet. If the angle of elevation is 14.7 degrees, and the range is 1290' 7", then the height would be 345.0311072 feet and each floor would be over 11 feet. Put down Google sketch and pick up a scientific calculator and do some trigonometry. You can actually get correct results with trig.

Any right triangle must have sides and angles where the Sine, Cosine, Tangent, C-Tangent, Secand, and Co-secant correctly compute. If side a is 338 ft, and the angle of elevation of 14.7º rises to that height of 338 ft, side b will be 1264.283557 feet. So, the hypotenuse is impossible, and side b is whack by 26 feet. Please do demonstrate the trigonometry behind your childish Google Sketchup nonsense. Do the math. I will get you started.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - As soon as you publish your proof for your mathematical formula c < b. Even a complete jackass, such as yourself, can see from your original play picture, from your #181 to which I linked, that you showed a hypotenuse of 1009' 4". Your original play picture shows part of a circle with a radius of 338'. Your second play picture displays the same radius of the circle as 338' on an up/down line. On a somewhat downward slanting horizontal line, you added a new measurement of the radius of that same circle at 324' 6". How the radius shrinks on one side by 11' 6" is not explained. It's a magic circle, or magic math. 1009' 4" + 338' is 1347' 4". 1009' 4" + 324' 6" is 1333' 10". Keep changing that side radius distance, make believe it was part of the original hypotenuse, until you get your math to work. What the magic circle with the changing radius is doing there is a mystery. The difference between level travel to end point and travel from elevation to end point is c - b, not the vertical distance of the elevation. The 338' up/down radius of the circle indicates the elevation of the shooter, and the circle indicates you had an irresistable impulse to draw a circle and make believe the radius was something other than 338' at another angle. 338' was a stated distance of elevation. 324' 6" appears to be a figure plucked from your ass. Given angles A (14.70°) and C (90.00°) and side a (338') — A = 14.70° a = 338.00 ft A + B + C = 180º b = sin(B) * a / sin(A) c = sin(C) * a
Poor vociferous goon. The sides of my triangle add up just fine. All your effort to obfuscate the fact that... Does your one hit "expert" think Putin's alleged affinity with Alexander Solzhenitsyn is legitimate or Solzhenitsyn "debunked" too?
Ivan Petrovich Sidorov getting only one hit. ))) Such incompetence. ))) ))) ))) Where's your math? Ain't got none? How did you get a circle with one radius 11' 6" less than the other?
So. Putin's alleged ideological affinity with Solzhenitsyn - Debunked or not?

It's easy to see why Angleton became intoxicated with Golitsyn and his theories, and equally easy to see why the official historian of MI5, Professor Christopher Andrew, was to describe him as 'an unreliable conspiracy theorist'. Golitsyn began by confirming the identities of two Soviet spies the CIA and M16 had known of but whose activities they had never been able to prove legally, and who were already safely in Russia: Guy Burgess and Donald Maclean. He then gave details of some spies who had not been unmasked, including the Briton John Vassall and a Russian double agent who had operated mostly in Germany named Aleksander Kopatzky. Vassall. a relatively low-level official at the Foreign Office. was later arrested, convicted and jailed. The case against Kopatzky was unproven and after a brief period seeking refuge in the Russian Consulate he braved it out and lived peacefully in Virginia for the rest of his days. Golitsyn also gave enough clues for the authorities, at last, to unmask Kim Philby — a spy who, having been effectively neutered a decade earlier, had arguably outlived his usefulness to the Soviets.

TRUMP'S 'ART OF THE DEAL' GHOSTWRITER TONY SCHWARTZ SAYS 'PUTIN OWNS TRUMP'
“So the Russians pursued Trump as an asset as early as mid-80s,” Schwartz tweeted this month after a story was published about Trump’s 1987 trip to Moscow hosted by the KGB’s travel agency. “His deep compromising connection with a sworn enemy is going to unravel soon in ways that boggle the mind,” he wrote.

Newsweek received more nominations for the 20th Annual GLAAD Media Awards than any other newspaper or magazine: one for Outstanding Magazine Article and one for Outstanding Magazine Overall Coverage, as well as two for Outstanding Digital Journalism Article and two for Outstanding Digital Journalism – Multimedia.
In August 2017, Schwartz predicted Trump would resign, saying "Trump's presidency is effectively over. Would be amazed if he survives till end of the year. More likely resigns by fall, if not sooner."

You do the math.
side B and angles b and c may be readily calculated —
just not to the values you give them.
B = ?º
C = 90.00°
b = ? ft
c = ? ft
A + B = 90º
