Re: USSOF Conduct Two Raids in Africa
I like to watch the English-language China cable channel (CCTV). They ran this story this evening, but with a decidedly anti-US slant. They portrayed the SEALs as nothing more than cowards who ran away the second they came under fire at the Kenyan mall. Interesting. Link? http://english.cntv.cn/201...

State of the art Chinese jet fighter a.k.a “flopping fish"
A new fighter plane built by China is drawing more snickers than raves from aviation experts, and the People's Army is now saying the jet was really ticketed for export all along. The J-31 "Falcon Hawk," likely designed by reverse-engineering a downed U.S. stealth fighter, was supposed “to...

The Great American Energy Boom is having a major ripple effect on the shipbuilding industry, which thanks to a 1920s maritime law, is busier than it has been in decades. Some ten supertankers are currently under construction at U.S. shipyards, with orders for another 15 in the pipeline. That may not...

Re: Movie Reviews
World War Z........nothing in common with the book. Just another senseless action movie with a weak plot. The special effects were not even anything new. I am glad I did not see it in the theater.
