  4. 6.5 x 55 is a sweet little round. Like most 6mm and 6.5mm it has an inherent accuracy, mild recoil, and is adequate for most North American game. One guy I knew used a sporterized Swedish Mauser for elk hunting.
  5. A CYCLIC rate of 1200 rpm. Not the same as rate of fire.
  6. Charlie Rouse , one of London’s last night watchman armed with rattle, tucked beneath his sash, truncheon, cutlass strapped to his waist, and carrying the traditional lantern, standing outside his post on the Brixton Road , London in 1850 . He looks like he'd jerk your knob just for fun.
  7. I wish the guys who make these videos would take public speaking classes.
  8. “In Ireland, you go to someone's house, and she asks you if you want a cup of tea. You say no, thank you, you're really just fine. She asks if you're sure. You say of course you're sure, really, you don't need a thing. Except they pronounce it ting. You don't need a ting. Well, she says then, I was going to get myself some anyway, so it would be no trouble. Ah, you say, well, if you were going to get yourself some, I wouldn't mind a spot of tea, at that, so long as it's no trouble and I can give you a hand in the kitchen. Then you go through the whole thing all over again until you both end up in the kitchen drinking tea and chatting. In America, someone asks you if you want a cup of tea, you say no, and then you don't get any damned tea. I liked the Irish way better.” ― C.E. Murphy, Urban Shaman Picture: Irish Tea Party early 1900s, photograph from Valentine’s of Dundee, Scotland
  9. That's Miscegenation! It will lead to guns like this:
  10. I've used it at cookouts when people have brought the combined package, one bottle each of yellow mustard, catsup, and relish. I think it's slightly wetter that the stuff in the jar, so I don't use it at home . It's interesting that people are saying that the jarred relish is too wet. I guess my wife and I like our tuna salad and such looser than most people, or maybe use less mustard and mayonnaise than others do. ADDED: Maybe the dry mustard we add absorbs some of the moisture.
  11. How to operate a Blackburn Buccaneer, low level strike aircraft: "Open throttle, reach take off speed, raise undercarriage, go to full throttle, descend to operating altitude."
  12. In civilian courts and prison, there is usually considerable monetary compensation. I'm assuming this guy was convicted by Courts Martial, and so I have no idea. I would hope so. As well as automatic promotions, back pay, and reinstatement of pension and benefits. ADDED: In wrongful convictions I think that the prosecutor, and in this case the officers who made up the Court, should be, at minimum, stripped of all pension and benefits. If those officers are still in, they should be reduced in grade to E-1.
  13. It's a drinking song with the meter of a quadrille or jig (quick jig) that was adopted by many regiments as their regimental air. This clip shows some young people dancing to it, starts about half way through. And as a line dance As a march it is a quick march.
  14. Judge upholds CA AWB
  15. Riveting! Fascinating! Well narrated with impeccably accuracy in choice of photos! Although technically the Starr I s a single action with a finger actuated cocking lever.
  16. A few hundred years later St. John Chrysostom expanded on that: For men of understanding do not say that the sword is to blame for murder, nor wine for drunkenness, nor strength for outrage, nor courage for foolhardiness, but they lay the blame on those who make an improper use of the gifts which have been bestowed upon them by God, and punish them accordingly.
