myLot Discussions on Air to Ground Recongnition Jackets| Holy Posse Comitatus Batman! | | The Marines are establishing a "Military Presence in San Bernardino County, California". If that sentence isn't intimidating enough, imagine being pulled over (having had a few) for a booze test and find a Marine as well as a California Highway Patrol guy staring at you. The Marines are from Air and Ground Combat Center.

This little nugget of data has the entire Internet in a twist, and the tin hatters are going APE! Alex Jones is waxing...well, I can't get into that in a G Rated post. The Posse Comitatus, according to these guys, is getting shredded six ways from Sunday.

I personally don't trust the first version of a story I read, and my search for a 'Posse Comitatus Violatus' debunk has turned up empty thus far. What exactly are the Marines doing? Chasing drunks doesn't seem like their cup of tea.

| | does weather affect a search dog's smell??? | | in my opinion it sure does.search dogs search best around dawn,when ground dew accentuates the scent of whatever is being tracked.ground tracking is more difficult at times of day,when the ground is drier.
we tend to think of bloodhounds sniffing the ground,but many perhaps most search and rescue dogs-especially those used in mountain,avalanche and earthquake rescue-use their amazing air scenting abilities.the dog starts downwind from where the victim is thought to be and works forward picking up scent from the air.like ground scent,air scent is considerably affected by weather.
please write in your opinions... | |
| | Does anyone know about Lukemia and the causes? | | I'm not very aware of what causes Lukemia or why people get it. In the past 4 years I've known 3 people to die from Lukemia. These 3 people were all in their early to mid twenties and they all grew up in the same area. I grew up in the same area. Do you think that it could be something that was in the air or ground in this small town? Does anyone have any information on how I can research this town and things that could be causing this to happen? | |
| | 140 foreign intelligence organizations are trying to hack into the US | | It seems as if our networks are vulnerable to attacks and that hackers from all over the world are trying to get into our systems to cause trouble or as a means of terrorist attack. Joel Brenner, the national counterintelligence executive said "The nation's electronic systems are too easy to hack, and the number of world-class hackers is "multiplying at bewildering speed."..."Our water and sewer systems, electricity grids, financial markets, payroll systems, air and ground traffic control systems ... are all electronically controlled, electronically dependent, and subject to sophisticated attacks by both state-sponsored and freelance terrorists," he said. We take for granted our computers and our easy access and that those same computers run everything in our country. We've talked before about what would happen if we lost our electricity and everything shut down. This is a worse and truly scary thought...that terrorists are always trying to attack our systems to create problems. Here is the article. http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/10/19/cyber.threats/index.html?iref=mpstoryview | |

MOUNT CLEMENS, Mich. - A man suspected of killing and dismembering his wife was captured Sunday as he fled searchers, running through snow in northern Michigan, police said.Stephen Grant had been the subject of a manhunt since police discovered what they believe to be the torso and other body parts of his wife, Tara Lynn Grant, in and around the couple’s house in a suburb of Detroit.Grant was arrested in Bliss Township in northern Michigan, some 225 miles from his home, after an air and ground search by local, state and federal agencies, according to the Emmet County sheriff’s department.Grant did not struggle when he was caught in the cold weather, Macomb County Sheriff Mark Hackel said. Temperatures in the area of his capture were in the teens and 20s late Saturday and early Sunday, according to the National Weather Service.“He was not in the condition to run anymore or obviously to flee,” Hackel said.Hackel said Grant was taken to a hospital with signs of frostbite or... | |

| | Israel Ready to Strike on Iran Nuke Plant | | Sunday, March 13, 2005TEHRAN, Iran — Israel has drawn up secret plans for a combined air and ground attack on targets in Iran if diplomacy fails to halt the Iranian nuclear program. The inner cabinet of Ariel Sharon (search ), the Israeli prime minister, gave "initial authorization" for an attack at a private meeting last month on his ranch in the Negev desert.Israeli forces have used a mock-up of Iran's Natanz uranium enrichment plant in the desert to practice destroying it. Their tactics include raids by Israel's elite Shaldag (Kingfisher) commando unit and airstrikes by F-15 jets from 69 Squadron, using bunker-busting bombs to penetrate underground facilities.The plans have been discussed with American officials who are said to have indicated provisionally that they would not stand in Israel's way if all international efforts to halt Iranian nuclear projects failed.Tehran claims that its program is designed for peaceful purposes but Israeli and American intelligence officials — who have met to share information in recent weeks — are convinced that it is intended to produce nuclear weapons.The Israeli government responded cautiously yesterday to an... | |

| | WHAT U KNOW ABT K-8 NAMC PLANE | | The K-8 offers a state-of-art training platform for the pilots of the Pakistan Air Force. It is a milestone in the long history of close cooperation and technical collaboration between Pakistan and China. The $20 million K-8 advanced jet trainer has been jointly designed and produced by the Pakistan Aeronautical Complex (PAC), Kamra and China's Nanchang Aircraft Manufacturing Company (NAMC) and is manufactured at NAMC. Pakistan had earlier unilaterally developed a similar aircraft, but sought a partnership with China to further advance production and technology standards of that aircraft. The K-8 is a tandem-seat advanced jet trainer (AJT) with a low-set, unswept wing which has been co-produced by Pakistan and China. It first flew in 1991 and is intended to completely replace the T-37s in service with the PAF by 2005. The total order for the PAF may reach upto 100 aircraft.
The K-8 can also be armed with air-to-air missiles for the airfield defence. The first batch of 6 K-8s (with Collins EFTS-86 MFD and Allied Signal TFE-731-2A turbofan) were delivered to the PAF in January 1995 and these second batch K-8s are optimized for the air defence role with the Chinese PL-7 underwing... | |
