So this is something I have been hearing rumors about for a little while now.  All kinds of little things I figured were the usual rumor mongering even when I heard about Russian units near the border having gear shipped to an unknown location, started training for extensive urban warfare, and other little things that set off red flags.  Rumor mongering though is stock and trade in some places though so kind of passed it over.

Until now that is as reports flood in of Russian military forces moving into Crimea.  Very little is yet available on the situation with everyone playing the political game but things could change dramatically very soon.
