I dont know if this has any truth to it, but one of my favorite authors talks of a very.... enhanced B-52 which he describes as a flying battleship with all its gun, engine, body designs, upgrades.

It has a V shaped rear tail (two tails). 4 big engines instead of 8. and a SR-71 shaped nose.

I have heard rumors this is a real plane. Can anyone tell me if it exists?

Violation of the UN,
Destruction of Palestine,
Destruction of Lebanon,
Continued destruction of the Gaza Strip,
Killing women and children EVERYDAY and forcing them out of their homes in their own country!,
Keeping 10,000 Arab POWS from their families!,
Acquiring Nucleat technology and refusing to sign the Proliferation Treaty and then accusing Iran...,
Please people, open your eyes. Palestine needs you more than ever now. This systemic terrorization can't possibly continue. But what's the use. What's the use of saying anything when no one cares. :'(

After all, Israel is a democracy and is in no way associated with terrorism...isn't it?

Our boys in Afghanistan reported back pretty quickly in 2001 that it took three or more center-mass hits with their .223s to stop the Afghani tribesmen. I'm inclined to think that a move up to 6.8mm or .30 cal. is warranted.

Any thoughts on this? Do you know if the military is considering a larger caliber for general issue?

Here is Wisconsin we just had a MAJOR blizzard and they cancelled school.
No big deal...right...good call since we got so much snow.
IT IS A BIG DEAL to the Milwaukee Public Schools. They haven't cancelled a day since 1997 and they were on the radio "apologizing" for doing it.

WHY? The kids get 2 meals a day and are kept out of their parent's hair. The Milwaukee welfare moms go nuts when no one feeds their kids. NOTE TO MOM - YOU FEED YOUR OWN KIDS okay and maybe don't smoke pot today and play with your kid.
No one said they were sorry in my city for cancelling school.

attacked was more like it, but the wound is not bad. my brother called the police and filed a report. the dog owner went with me to the doctor to get it checked out. she payed for the cab rides and the copay of the doctor. the police say she is going to get a letter and will have to watch the dog for ten days for erratic behavior. Now here's the thing: this dog has now attacked me AND my brother at this point. unprovoked. when it attacked my brother it didn't break the skin so he didn't take any action, he just chewed the owner out. but the attack on me today broke the skin (but like i said its not a bad wound, it just hurts like B****!! and only bled a little.)

should i take further action with the police report? can i take further action? i believe the owner is not being responsible the the public with a dog that has now attacked TWO people. I don't want to hurt the dog, just make the owner realize she needs to properly handle this dog, and not brush off this situation.

My boyfriend (23 yrs old now) was born in the phillippines. He came to the United States when he was 3 on a visa. Recently his visa expired, which means hes illegal. His father was born here in the United States, he denied my boyfriend when he was 1. His mother got a paternity test done and proved he was the father but he didnt and still wants nothing to do with him. Question is, because his father is a US Citizen does that make my boyfriend a US citizen as well and if so what do we do to make him legal on paper?

Years ago i got a model airplane of a plane that was supposed to replace the SR-71 blackbird. it had sleeker looking engines and wings (well flatter wings).
I ask this because i think i might have seen one fly over my town but then again i saw a pictures on the internet of a plane that was never went into full production (jet air plane or something)..

Is there such a plane? i dont know many specs on it.. it looks like a SR71 for the most part but part of the wing curves in a 90 degree angle just above the engines. the engines also are not the nassel type ones but B2 type box engines under the wings.

think we could cut the military and better spend the money else wear. Who cares about schools in Iraq we need to help our school here. Who cares about the South Korean border we have our own to protect. Feel free to disagree with me. Best answer gets 10 points.

I have a question, and i really need a yes or no on this if you can help me. I figure asking the military is the best place to start.

Years ago a friend of mine went on a tour of Carlsbad caverns and along the way the guide was pointing out interesting parts of the cave. I dont remember if it was my friend noticing something or the guide having said it, but a certain corner of a dark room came up in this story.

he said that there is a set of metal stairs that lead into the darkness. and according to this, it was said to be a secret military base of some sort (maybe a command center of some sorts).

Has anyone ever heard of this? is this true? dont really need to know what it is just if it is.
