British sniper sets new sharpshooting record with 1.54-mile double Taliban kill
An army sniper has earned a place in military history by killing two Taliban machine gunners from more than a mile and a half away.
Craig Harrison's record breaking shots felled the insurgents with consecutive bullets - even though they were 3,200ft beyond the official range of his rifle.
The Household Cavalry veteran's kills from a distance of 8,120ft beat the previous record by 150ft. Read the rest... (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1270414/British-sniper-sets-new-sharpshooting-record-1-54-mile-double-Taliban-kill.html)

From my Dad:
It looks like the pussification of the Army is complete:
One less skill for soldiers to master at boot camp: bayonet training
Lt. Gen. Mark Hertling opted to discontinue bayonet training for Army recruits. After all, the last US bayonet charge was in 1951. But in the weeks since that decision, Hertling has had some pushback.
When a US Army general made the decision recently to remove bayonet assaults from the array of skills soldiers must learn during basic training, it seemed like a no-brainer.
US troops hadn’t launched a bayonet charge since 1951 during the Korean War. And new soldiers preparing for an increasingly violent war in Afghanistan already need to learn far more skills than the 10 weeks of basic training allows, says Lt. Gen. Mark Hertling, head of initial entry training and the Army’s Training and Doctrine Command.
So he made a change, substituting skills drill sergeants reported that they wanted to teach new recruits in favor of dropping the time-honored practice of the bayonet charge.
But in the weeks since that decision, Hertling has heard about it. “Bayonet training is pretty fascinating,” he says. “I’ve been slammed by retirees.”
The objections to ending the training are occasionally practical.
In 2004, with ammunition running low, a British unit launched a bayonet charge toward a trench outside of Basra, Iraq, where some 100 members of the Mahdi Army militia were staging an attack. The British soldiers later said that though some of the insurgents were wounded in the bayonet charge itself, others were simply terrified into surrender.

I'll bet the Corps won’t make this mistake. We’re either too smart, too stubborn or too stupid to do away with bayonet training.

So who's ready a Tiger Woods sex tape? One of Tiger's mistresses, porn star Devon James is reportedly (http://www.radaronline.com/exclusives/2010/09/exclusive-porn-star-shopping-tiger-woods-sex-tape-xxx-company-vivid-top-level) shopping a sex tape staring the golfer:
Tiger Woods' porn star mistress Devon James is meeting porn star producer Vivid in the hope of selling an ‘explosive' sex tape of the golfer, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned.
"The tape is 62 minutes long and 37 minutes of it is us having sex," James told RadarOnline.com, before boarding a flight from Tampa Bay to Los Angeles, Wednesday.

I agree with you that it would seem to be very difficult to do....but you'd
probably also have to agree that it could certainly be possible.
It could take only one decently created spark to land in
just the right place..and with the correct conditions being
in that right place...a fire could potentially start up.
If the fire story was even true...I still think that a cigarette or
a match might've actually started up the fire.
I've always wondered about the type of club being used..and the
type of rock that might've been struck.
If a metal club face was scratched long enough along the right
type of rock...it could have potentially created a somewhat
long stretch of sparks....maybe a few inches or more in length...depending
upon the length of the rock and the point of contact etc.
If the Mythbusters were to take something like this on...I think
that they would create a situation that would try to recreate
a long stretching line of sparks....not just a quick flash.
(...a larger display of sparks would be a better visual for
the TV slow motion shots. ;) )

Police: Iraq war veteran's SUV vandalized in West York, possibly due to his service
Anthony Gurreri is reminded every day of his service in Operation Iraqi Freedom when he wakes up with no job to go to because he is physically disabled, his wife said.
But with Veterans Day approaching, someone left the entire Gurreri family with a much nastier reminder.
"Go back to Iraq and kill more women and kids" was spray-painted on the hood of the family SUV, and "MUDER" -- murder misspelled -- was scratched into the paint on the driver's door.
A former lance corporal in the Marines, Gurreri spent nearly a year in Iraq in 2006, wife Stacie Gurreri said. In addition to being shot, he was injured by a couple improvised explosive devices, she said.
Anthony Gurreri came home with two Purple Hearts and a combat-caused medical condition that left him on full disability, according to his wife.

The only reasons people like that have the right to act like assholes and disrespect veterans is because of the sacrifices of those same veterans... it's been said many time, but it's worth repeating... it is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us the freedom of the press.
It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech.
It is the soldier, not the agitator, who has given us the freedom to protest.
It is the soldier who salutes the flag, serves beneath the flag, whose coffin is draped by the flag, who gives that protester the freedom he abuses to burn that flag.

Armed Beauty Queen Fatally Shoots Intruder in Florida Home Invasion
By Cristina Corbin - March 22, 2011 | FoxNews.com
When a burly ex-convict forced his way into a posh Florida home last week, he
had no idea what awaited him -- a 25-year-old beauty queen with a pink
.38-caliber handgun.
Meghan Brown, a former Florida pageant queen, shot and killed 42-year-old
Albert Franklin Hill during a home invasion March 12 at the 2,732-square-foot
house she shares with her fiance in Tierra Verde, Fla.
Hill barged into the home at around 3 a.m. after Brown responded to a knock at the front door, according to a police report. He allegedly grabbed the 110-pound Brown around her nose and mouth and dragged her to an upstairs bedroom.
The woman’s fiance, Robert Planthaber, said in an interview that he was quickly awakened by the altercation and ran to Brown’s side.
"I attacked him and took a severe beating to the head," Planthaber told FoxNews.com. "But I got him off of her long enough for her to scramble to the room where she keeps her pink .38 special.”
Brown, who reigned as the 2009 Miss Tierra Verde, snatched her gun from a nearby bedroom and shot the suspect several times – hitting him in the chest, groin, thigh and back, her fiance said. Hill was pronounced dead at the scene.

College officials 'appalled' as fratboy and his girl are caught having sex on the roof of USC building... in front of hundreds of people
An inquiry has been launched after a couple were caught apparently having sex on the rooftop of a USC building - allegedly in front of hundreds of people.

Silly silly goofball stunts.
...at the very least they could have made it a bit more interesting by having
two guys up there with the girl..and the girl could have sat by and watched as
the two guys went at it with each other...in variety of strange positions...and
maybe while wearing Hilllary Clinton masks.

College officials 'appalled' as fratboy and his girl are caught having sex on the roof of USC building... in front of hundreds of people
An inquiry has been launched after a couple were caught apparently having sex on the rooftop of a USC building - allegedly in front of hundreds of people.
Officials at the university were outraged as photographs of the couple - many of which were too graphic to be shown here - quickly went viral.
The images apparently show the man, who is a student at the university, and a woman cavorting in a variety of sexual positions on top of the school's 12-storey Waite Phillips Hall in Los Angeles on Saturday.

MaggieI saw that on Yahoo one night.
Personally, i think they did it with full intentions of being caught. Cause in the news article i read, there was a picture, and you could see they were right near the edge of the roof. Where people can see you..
If they didn't want to be caught, they would've 'set up camp' more towards the middle of the roof, away from prying eyes.
Seems like it was all planned.

The tractor trailer flipped on its side after the driver failed to make a

The 53-foot big rig carrying cases of Bud Light Lime beer is blocking several

LA Porn Studio Begins Construction On ‘Post-Apocalyptic’ Underground
Bunker
A San Fernando Valley adult entertainment studio began construction this
month on what it calls a “post-apocalyptic” underground bunker in anticipation
of a global catastrophe rumored to take place in late 2012.
A spokesman for Van Nuys-based Pink Visual said the bunker will be “far more
than a mere bomb shelter or subterranean survivalist enclave” with amenities
such as multiple fully-stocked bars, an enormous performing stage and a
sophisticated content production studio.
“Our goal is nothing less than to survive the apocalypse to come in comfort
and luxury,” said Pink Visual spokesman Quentin Boyer, “whether that catastrophe
takes the form of fireballs flung earthward by an all-seeing deity, extended
torrential rainfall, Biblical rapture, an earthquake-driven mega-tsunami,
radioactive flesh-eating zombies, or some combination of the above.”
Hmm, well, I suppose I could say something like, hey, at least we'll still be able get porn after the appocolypse... But I think a better response might be to paraphrase the clock on the wall and say: kook-koo, kook-koo, kook-koo. :lol:
OK, I wanted to wait to I had more details about what happen. But Saturday there was another airshow plane crash in my hometown. Luckily no one I knew was hurt, but the pilot was killed. From what I was told, it was one of the red and white ones which crash.

I love the name of the thing, the Sexagon. And looking at the blueprint image, i love how the 'World Disaster Satellite Monitor' takes up an entire wall.
But are they serious? I mean, how many global catastrophe end-of-the-world situations have we experienced now? We had Y2K all those years ago, and more recently a supposed rapture. I think there was also another rapture and possibly something else in between those..
And everytime, nothing. Life continues without even batting an eyelid.
I think it's a front for some kind of kooky cult.
Unless it's some kind of an elaborate set being built for an elaborate porn movie they're working on. But the blueprint is dated 2008, and i doubt it would take 3 years to make a porn flick.

:oops: Duh, I just finished shoot with a model from Kentucky... She was such a sweethert to work with, she made lasting impression on everyone. :)
Wait for the NTSB report... He was doing an aileron roll, NOT a combination a loop and barrel role. An aileron roll is an aerobatic maneuver in which the aircraft does a full 360° revolution about its longitudinal axis, it starts with the pilot pulling the aircraft into a brief climb with the nose roughly 10 to 30 degrees above the horizon. As the aircraft begins to roll it starts to lose lift, so you add rudder to keep the nose up as wings roll to 90 degrees. As it rolls inverted you add down elevator and gradually ease off as it rolls from inverted. When done properly, there is no appreciable change in altitude and the aircraft exits the maneuver on the same heading as it entered.
Anyway, what I saw in the videos looked like a text book aileron roll right up until the point where he dug a smoking hole in the ground... The reason I say wait for the NTSB report is that mechanical failure is a possibilty, but based on what I saw in video it looks like airfame stalled and he simply didn't have enough altitude to recover.
This is a bit of an aside, but it's worth mentioning: an Aileron roll is pretty a basic, low stress aerobatic maneuver, it's one of the first things a pilot learns in basic aerobatic training.
Heh, yeah, from the pictures that I saw what broke of the Mustang was a trim tab... They're not primary control surfaces losing one would negatively impact manuverability, but given enough altitude it shouldn't be fatal.

Plane hits Ferris wheel in Australia; no injuries
By ROD McGUIRK, Associated Press, Saturday, October 1, 2011
CANBERRA, Australia (AP) -- An ultra-light plane crashed into a Ferris wheel
at a rural festival in eastern Australia on Saturday, trapping two children on
the ride and two adults in the aircraft for hours. There were no serious
injuries.
The Cheetah S200 carrying two men did not topple the Ferris wheel when it hit
the frame near the top on the first morning of an annual three-day festival at
Old Bar, a coastal village 220 miles (350 kilometers) north of Sydney, New South
Wales Rural Fire Service spokesman Ben Shepherd said.

I take it that it was set up as some sort of a temporary fair/event type of situation.
The required big flat open location probably just happened to be located somewhat close to the airport's runway.

Do you think that he might've been trying to show off a bit and buzz by the
fair grounds at a low altitude?..and then maybe he misjudged the height
of the ferris wheel...or his speed..or both etc?
Maybe the "aborted landing" was a built in excuse to take an "accidental" low
pass over nearby the fair grounds.

Who says that it was put up at the end of the runway?
It's hard to tell what the exact layout and locations/distances really were based on what was shown in the video clip.
The ferris wheel didn't really look to be very tall....tops maybe 50-60 feet high?
(..although..obviously...that's high enough to do the trick.)
Who knows...maybe in that area there could have been other types of structures and/or obstructions of a similar
height or even higher....so maybe that wasn't a major consideration.

Temporary or not, you don't put something that tall at the end of a runway. Something tells me the "grass" runway, wasn't really a runway. Or someone is really really stupid.
I found the runway on google maps...and I matched up what seems to be the exact location of the ferris wheel...based on
the image shown in the video clip.
It might've been in line with the end of runway....but the distance and safety/height aspects might be debatable.
Offhand I would say that there probably shouldn't ever be any room for debate....but I have no idea how active that
airstrip actually is..and with what type of aircraft. (...ultralights?...shown flying nearby in the video.)
There are some high trees in the area....but none of the trees appear to be as high as the ferris wheel.
You can see how the guy's approach would have been from the opposite end of the runway.
Flying VFR..I wonder if he ever saw the ferris wheel at all during a fly by or during his landing approach.
I'm sure that his attention was elsewhere....but how could that be missed off in the distance at that height?
(..small thin white framework of the ferris wheel lost in the light and the sky background?...and/or..maybe the very top might have been
obscured just enough by various clutter on the ground?)
I really have to wonder if this guy might've been trying to show off in some way by buzzing the fair and the people
on the ground.

Something tells me the "grass" runway, wasn't really a runway. Or someone is really really stupid.
No..it's set up as a real runway...of some sort. (..for light/small aircraft.)
The placement could have been stupidity....but it's kind of tough to tell.
It's a little too obvious for someone to not have noticed...but it's possible.
I have a feeling that the runway isn't very active...or it's used by very small/light planes...when it's used at all.

Do you think that he might've been trying to show off a bit and buzz by the
fair grounds at a low altitude?..and then maybe he misjudged the height
of the ferris wheel...or his speed..or both etc?
Maybe the "aborted landing" was a built in excuse to take an "accidental" low
pass over nearby the fair grounds.
:oops:
Actually, I doubt it, the devil is in the detail, or the reporting... I found an article about the crash on the Telegraph's site (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/australiaandthepacific/australia/8800724/Ferris-wheel-crash-pilot-saved-by-plane.html) that contains some important details:
The plane, a Cheetah S200, was practicing touch-and-go manoeuvres at a nearby
airstrip, but failed to gain enough altitude to clear the Ferris wheel, which
was placed at the southern end of the runway as part of the local Old Bar
Beach Festival.
Based on that report and after looking at the map and taking "walk" around the area with street view, I think he's probably telling the truth. There's only a few hundred feet from the end of the runway to the area where the ferris wheel appears to have been.

Unless he was doing something as part of the fair/festival, why practice when there's a ferris wheel in the way?
Why not do it on a day when there's nothing around?

Jeff,
I read a short story in the newspaper today about that light plane crashing into the ferris wheel. It mentioned that a number of witnesses said that it looked like the ferris wheel had been set up too close to the end of the runway.
I just read Steve Jobs passed away. It's very sad :(I saw that on the news today. I knew he wasn't doing very well, but i was still surprised to hear about it.
They mentioned something about him in the shorts but i didn't hear what it was about. Then later on, i saw a short message scroll past on the news ticker along the bottom of the screen and it said that he'd passed away.
The same way that Patrick Swayze went.
Let's hope that Apple has some minds of equal greatness to continue what he started.

He bought into Pixar as a cutting edge technology company (..and also to help out George Lucas.) ..and then he "lucked out"
when Pixar became a leading animation studio with huge hit after huge hit.
Pixar is an amazing story..and as with most things Jobs related..his actual involvement remains a questionable mystery. (..by design.)
I wouldn't exactly call his passing "so sudden".
It's been acknowledged that he's been "ill" since at least 2003...and possibly even sometime before that.

Never bring a gun to a fistfight:
CHICAGO (CBS) — Robbing a man who turned out to be an ultimate fighter proved to be a bad decision for a convicted felon, who is now in bad shape as he is held on bond.
Police say around 11:30 p.m. Friday, Anthony Miranda, 24, walked up to a car parked at 55th Street and Kenneth Avenue, just a few blocks from Midway International Airport.
Miranda asked the driver for a lighter, and the driver said he didn't have one. Then Miranda pulled a handgun and demanded that the driver hand over his money, police said.
Even after the driver complied and gave up some money, Miranda ordered him out of his car, police said.

It had to happen sooner or later:
"MythBusters" cannonball rips through house, van
DUBLIN, Calif.—A stunt for the TV show "MythBusters" sent an errant cannonball through a California family's house and into a parked minivan a few hundred feet away.
Producers for the Discovery Channel show fired the cannonball Tuesday at the Alameda County Sheriff's Department bomb range behind the Santa Rita Jail when it misfired.
Sheriff's spokesman J.D. Nelson told the Contra Costa Times that no one was injured and the home's residents didn't even wake up until the dust was settled -- literally on top of them.
Nelson, who is also a consultant for the show, said producers have used the cannon that they built at the range more than 50 times without incident.
The cannonball was supposed to go through a few water-filled barrels and a concrete wall. Instead, it passed over the barrels, through the wall,
and then took a "very unfortunate bounce that sent the ball skyward," Nelson said.
About 700 feet away, it bounced in front of the Dublin home, then tore through the front door and out a wall on the back of the house. The
projectile then bounced at least once more and crossed the road before smashing the window and dashboard of the minivan, where it came to rest.

Islamic cleric bans women from touching bananas, cucumbers for sexual resemblance
Manar Ammar | 6 December 2011
CAIRO: An Islamic cleric residing in Europe said that women should not be close to bananas or cucumbers, in order to avoid any “sexual thoughts.”
The unnamed sheikh, who was featured in an article on el-Sawsana news, was quoted saying that if women wish to eat these food items, a third party, preferably a male related to them such as their a father or husband, should cut the items into small pieces and serve.
He said that these fruits and vegetables “resemble the male penis” and hence could arouse women or “make them think of sex.” Bikyamasr.com cannot independently verify the accuracy of the news item at time of writing.
He also added carrots and zucchini to the list of forbidden foods for women.
The sheikh was asked how to “control” women when they are out shopping for groceries and if holding these items at the market would be bad for them. The cleric answered saying this matter is between them and God.
Answering another question about what to do if women in the family like these foods, the sheikh advised the interviewer to take the food and cut it for them in a hidden place so they cannot see it.
The opinion has stirred a storm of irony and denouncement among Muslims online, with hundreds of comments mocking the cleric.
One reader said that these religious “leaders” give Islam “a bad name” and another commented said that he is a “retarded” person and he must quite his post immediately.
Others called him a seeker of fame, but no official responses from renowned Islamic scholars have been published on the statements.
