Fallen Angel - WIP 1 by AnarchyWulfWatch
©2014-2016 AnarchyWulf
I'm having art blocks on and off the entire last week and it's killing me!
Anyway, i'm going to push on and complete this by this week, hopefully.
He's coming along just fine!
Oh yea. He looks so good. Misha's always a joy to draw!
On another note, i would have loved to see more of Castiel being human but oh well, him being an angel is equally badass!
I would offer a suggestion that may help you with the blocks.... try working an hour every day, or evening. That's what I'm doing, and i'm coming off a 3 year block. commit to an hour of dedicated drawing time each day. schedule it in if you have to, kind of like you schedule a show you want to watch.
Thank you! That's what I was doing! Hahaha! Trying to force myself to work a lil everyday!
Yup, I think that's one of the reasons I have so many favorites, and why I've got an extensive stock watch list. So if I run into a block, I've got a whole bunch of reference photos to sketch from.
coming along nicely
Wow! He looks so handsome!
Amazing! I'd relly like to see it finished.
This is looking amazing man!!
totally awesome!!! keep it up
And of course I forgot to say that I totally love your drawing *blush* Can't wait to see it completed!
I say, don't count your angels before the new episode I too would have loved to see more human!Cas
I love it!

Quick question, how to make navigation controls visible all the times? Right now, they are active when you do mouse over. On my phone they are gray in color but visible, that should be intentional I guess but how to make next/back arrows visible all the time in desktop browser.
I know focus is on content, so navigation etc don't come up unless reqd but some visitors might think there is no more content.
Plus how to make more than 10 posts/images on the homepage?

Released: Jul 01st, 2005
Running Time: 79
Director: Roy Karch
Company: Sex Z Pictures
Cast: Jenaveve Jolie, Cytherea, Amber Peach, Michelle Lay, Steve Hatcher, Jim Beem, Chris Cannon, Tony Tedeschi, Selena Silver
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: All-Sex
Couples-friendly wall-to-wall with a touch of a plot.
The premise is that four hot models are vying for a modeling contract with the Popstar lingerie company, so you'd think there would be a lot of scenes of the girls strutting their stuff in lingerie. You'd be wrong. The lingerie contest at the end is particularly lame and disappointing.
On the plus side, the performances are fine across the board, in particular squirting pixie Cytherea, who looks like Ashlee Simpson from some angles. Michelle Lay is on hand for a lesbian scene with Selena Silver, who has an appealing girl-next-door quality as one of the judges. With equal time for pussy-eating and a girl-centric plot, this makes for a decent couples recommendation.

DOVER, Mass. -- Medfield senior Sarah Honan thrives in situations where most keepers would feel uncomfortable.
Succeeding against a medley of free position shots and one-on-one breakaways last night, Honan made 12 difficult saves as she battled defending Division 2 state champion Warriors (8-2, 5-2) to a 10-6 besting of Tri-Valley League foe Dover-Sherborn (6-2, 3-2), at Nora Searle Field.
"I love free position shots," said Honan. "I like to stay on my toes, just watch the ball all the way to my stick and hopefully I come up with the save. Crashing together as a team and moving together."
Honan's impressive outing was aided with five goals from fellow senior Katelyn Noschese and a strong showing from the Warriors' man-to-man defense.
Looking Like Defending Champs: The Warriors were looking to bounce back after a poor second half on Wednesday that lead to a tough 14-9 loss to fellow league power Hopkinton (6-2). Medfield was ahead for 46:01 of the 50 minutes on Friday as they edged away for good off a four goal streak in the first half.
Sophomore Lauren Tschirch crashed the net then lowered her head into a group of defenders to draw Medfield's first free position. She buried the effort top-net for a 2-1 lead at 18:11.
Noschese cradled her way past two straight defenders to net a 5-1 goal and end the run with 7:13 left in the first half.
"Not only does it physically prepare us, but it mentally prepares us to stay in games and not let up," said Noschese. "First of all move the defender (and) get her off track then fake the goalie and just shoot to the corner she is not protecting. It forces them to crash on you."
Noschese cut out in front of the goal from behind the crease and nailed a 10-yard effort to help clinch the game at 10-6 with 5:07 left in the game. The Warriors moved into their "stall" offense after that score as they wasted of the rest of the clock.
"I was very proud of how smart they were," said Medfield coach Kathleen McCullough. "It is kind of like a stall if we are in a situation where we need to maintain possession. No shots (allowed)."
Senior Management: Lauren Harrity's two goals and one assist did little justice to show the senior midfielder's influence on Medfield's offensive management. Harrity played a role in half of the Warriors' scores, including the two straight tallies that put her team ahead 9-5 with 13:47 left.
The senior looped around the crease to setup both goals as she lobbed passes to freshman Grace Crowell and sophomore Hailey Tschirch for 10-yard scores and the 9-5 advantage.
"She is just very dynamic," said McCullough. "If she gets covered too hard she knows that she is going to have to feed the ball and if they are not playing hard defense on them she knows to go to goal."
Unable to Gain Ground: Dover-Sherborn struggled to pull even as they twice scored two scores then gave up a pair of goals.
Senior Nora Klemmer (three goals) converted a breakaway off a personal draw victory with 21:50 left in the game. Within 44 seconds, she lost two defenders as she cut away from net and produced enough space to sneak a 7-5 score along the post to finish the second run.
"Her first two shots did not go and she was able to adjust to the type of shot that was going to work," said Dover-Sherborn coach Erin Newton. "We need to make sure we are capitalizing on fast breaks. Our offensive end needs to be quicker in terms of our cuts and our of ball movement."
TVL As A Playoff Standard: Five of the eight teams in the Tri-Valley League made last years' postseason. The TVL has represented both of the two available girls' lacrosse state titles for the past two years.
In league games like last night's represent a good example of postseason play especially for the two Division 2 squads that played.
"We know that every team comes out strong against us (and) we can't really let up," said McCullough. "We learned a lot just from our last game against Hopkinton."

I have a problem with media library which is the uploads dont show even after uploading.. The screenshot speaks better:
I have a problem with media library which is the uploads dont show even after uploading.. The screenshot speaks better:
Check your uploads path in Settings -> Media.
Sorry esmi for not explaining my problem properly..
The problem is when am trying to add a new image in a new post by choosing one from the library I cant see any uploads even I have 222 images uploaded as the image shows.
Problem stays even after checking the uploads path :(
What is your uploads path set to?
Have you tried:
- deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem? If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).
- switching to the Twenty Ten theme to rule out any theme-specific problems?
Tried the first solution and the problem still not fixed but after trying to switch to 20-10 theme the problem seems to be fixed.. So now I have to check the theme.. In your opinion esmi, what could cause the problem and how I can get it fixed?!
ps: thanks alot for helping me fixing this problem so far :)
Difficult to say. I'd start by looking at any javascript that the theme may be executing. If jQuery scripts haven't been implemented carefully, scripts intended for the front end of the site might also be loading in the Admin area and causing your problems.
Is it a custom theme?
ya it is a custom theme. I tried to remove all the javascript and jquery codes but the problem still there :/
So is it something related to the functions.php file?
Possibly. If the theme is loading jQuery scripts via functions.php, try placing the relevant code loading the scripts inside a
if( !is_admin()) ... endif; conditional to stop them loading within the Admin area.
I checked the functions.php and the only code I put to load jquery was this
if ( !is_admin() ) {
wp_register_script('jquery', ("http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.1/jquery.min.js"), false);
and even after removing it, the problem is still there..
ps: my functions.php has 677 lines and they are all about changing the admin footer, admin header, login page, post thumbnail, 3 custom post types with custom fields and categories and sidebar widgets
and there is no kind of jquery scripts except the code I previously mentioned :(
I wanna add the functions.php file here but I dunno if I should. I know that you are trying to help me but I know my limits and wont put it to force you to read 677 lines so I'll just be satisfied with the suggestions for solving the problem :$
Can you pull some of the functions out one-by-one?
I'll try to do it and tell you the results.

The 24-year-old sealed the 50million euros transfer on Monday afternoon having undergone a medical in Munich, where he is on international duty.
Before Sunday's 1-0 win over big-spending Tottenham, Gunners boss Arsene Wenger had seen moves for Gonzalo Higuain, Luis Suarez and Yohan Cabaye all fail to come off, but finally has been able to land a big-name signing following the free transfers of Yaya Sanogo and Mathieu Flamini and a loan move for Palermo goalkeeper Emiliano Viviano.
Wenger was confident the 100million euro (B£85.3m) switch of Gareth Bale to Real Madrid would set in place a "domino" effect, and thus allow the likes of Ozil to come on to the market as the clock ticked down towards the 11pm deadline.
Ozil admitted he is looking forward to working underneath the Frenchman at the Emirates after becoming the second most expensive player in Barclays Premier League history.
"I am thrilled to be joining a club of the stature of Arsenal and am looking forward to playing in the Premier League," he said.
"It will be great for my own personal development as a player and I am particularly looking forward to working with Arsene Wenger.
"From our negotiations it is clear the club has huge ambition and I look forward to being part of an exciting future."
The Arsenal manager was delighted to have landed a player of such a high calibre.
Speaking to the club's official website, www.arsenal.com, Wenger said: "We are extremely pleased to have signed Mesut Ozil. He is a great player, with proven quality at both club and international level. We have watched and admired him for some time as he has all the attributes I look for in an Arsenal player.
"I have said throughout the summer that we have been working hard to bring in top quality players to this football club. This has involved many, many people across the club and I have always had the full support of the club in making decisions on the football side.
"Mesut is a top quality footballer who will be a fantastic addition to our talented squad. We are all looking forward to him joining up with us after his international matches with Germany and working with us as an Arsenal player."
Arsenal, who had been linked with Ozil's Real Madrid team-mates Karim Benzema and Angel di Maria, are also understood to have made a bid to sign Chelsea forward Demba Ba on loan, although reports suggest the 28-year-old Senegalese will now stay at Stamford Bridge.
Arsenal have responded well since they lost the opening Premier League game at home to Aston Villa, winning at Fulham and also securing a place in the group stages of the Champions League by beating Fenerbahce both at home and away.
However, the need for getting in extra bodies was highlighted by the inclusion of youngsters Serge Gnabry and Gedion Zelalem, only 16, on the bench after Arsenal's first-team squad had been decimated by injuries to key men like Lukas Podolski, Mikel Arteta and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.
Ozil represents a player of the highest quality, which was Wenger's pre-requisite for adding to the talent pool.
Third-generation Turkish-German playmaker Ozil joined Real from Werder Bremen in 2010, and has played 155 times for the Spanish giants as well as progressing with the national team, where he is fast closing in on 50 caps en route towards the World Cup.

Amazon.com Review
From the Publisher
--GOLF Magazine
"The Spirit of St. Andrews may have been written sixty years ago, but much of its content is timeless. MacKenzie never minces words, and his views on golf, golfers, and courses remind us that he was not only a brilliant architect but one of the most provocative characters the game has produced."
--George Peper, Editor-in-Chief, GOLF Magazine
"Alister MacKenzie believed that the chief object of a golf architect should be 'to imitate beauties of nature so closely as to make his work indistinguishable from Nature herself.' He showed us the way in this regard....I am lucky to have the book in my library."
--Michael Murphy, author of Golf in the Kingdom and The Kingdom of Shivas Irons
"In golf-as-religion circles, [the publication of The Spirit of St. Andrews] might be likened to the discovery of another Dead Sea scroll....It's a large dose of common sense about what makes a golf course interesting and fun."

Allen Questrom, Former Chairman and CEO of J.C. Penney, discusses how traditional retailers can survive competition from Amazon and other internet competitors. » Read More
With stocks closing lower 4 days in a row, is it time to surrender to the trend?
Stocks ended the week down sharply, with the major indexes down as much as 4 percent in the worst week for the markets since July 2. Retail drops.
U.S. stocks were lower Friday after several reports on the economy did little to change the overall picture for investors.
How are you playing the retail sector? Does Friday the 13th matter? Share your opinion.
A batch of consumer and inflation data could help determine how a wobbly stock market will finish out the week. Retail sales, consumer sentiment and the latest CPI are all being reported in the morning.
Stocks closed lower Thursday, continuing a losing streak amid light volume and continued worries over the state of the economy. Cisco skidded, Verizon rose.
Stocks continued a losing streak Thursday heading into the close, amid light volume and continued worries over the state of the economy triggered by the latest batch of economic data and comments from Cisco that customers are hestitant about a recovery. Cisco skidded, Verizon rose.
Stocks ended modestly lower after an unexpected rise in initial jobless claims and disappointing July retail sales, as the market awaited the critical July employment report.
Stocks were weak Thursday after an unexpected rise in initial jobless claims and July retail sales that were mostly weak.
See what's happening, who's talking and what will be making headlines on Thursday's Squawk on the Street.
Investors can't wait to get their hands on the latest retail numbers to gauge the health of the consumer and by proxy the rally.
The latest reads on consumer confidence and personal spending have provided little encouragement that shoppers are starting to spend again. However, July marks the start of back-to-school shopping, and since parents have to buy clothing for their growing children, it may give a much-needed boost to retail sales.
Back-to-school fashion is getting a makeover as more school districts adopt uniform dress codes.
Stocks extended their winning streak for a third straight session Thursday, helped by a late round of buying in consumer staples and materials. Bank and tech stocks remained the day's weakest links.
Stocks struggled to hold their gains Thursday as declines in bank and chipmaker shares offset gains by some retailers and improvement in new claims for unemployment benefits.
The future of the retail sector is scary, according to David Berman, because you are not seeing very good same store sales. It could turn negative come the fall.
With stocks paring early gains, are key technical levels more likely to provide support or resistance?
Stocks pulled back from a morning rally as declines in bank and chipmaker shares offset gains by some retailers and improvement in new claims for unemployment benefits.
Warm weather and sales tied to the Memorial Day and Father's Day holidays helped drive shoppers to stores in June, but the heavy discounting may have hurt retail profits.
S&P 500 futures moved up a couple points as initial jobless claims were slightly lower than expected, as was the continuing claims number.

I'm running WPMU with the DB-splitting code and domain mapping plugins from premium.WPMUDev.org.
I'm running into a problem getting WP Super Cache to work properly. I've been through the entire FAQ on the plugin page, and everything seems to be installed/configured correctly.
However, only blogs with mapped domains are being cached. Non-mapped blogs are showing live pages (not cached).
On domain-mapped blogs, I'm getting super cached pages, but updates are not showing up. By that I mean "new" posts do show up, but if I update an existing post/page, the changes do not show up for anonymous users.
I tried waiting 10 minutes for the garbage collection to happen, but no joy.
Any ideas on what to check from here and whether these two issues may be related?

Busy box plays up the youth and beauty of the girls to good advantage.
There's nothing here you haven't seen before, but with new faces in a tried-and-true format. Four girls are anal first-timers in a low-rent, stereotypical rendition of predictable porn scenarios. Platinum (called "Shelly") sets the tone with her portrayal of a lollipop-sucking girlie, complete with pink fuzzy teddy bear before dropping the props and diving into her anal scene like a trouper. Sleepy-eyed Karizma rides into the video on a skateboard before taking on two guys in a gymnastic d.p. sequence. Almost-blonde Cindy Red is outfitted with a Hula Hoop to establish the youth of her character. The video closes with Pebbles in a classic scenario of a professor helping a teen with her math homework. The tryst turns into a threeway which almost works.

Acoustic field variability induced by time evolving internal wave fields108(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1288662View Description Hide Description
A space- and time-dependent internal wavemodel was developed for a shallow water area on the New Jersey continental shelf and combined with a propagation algorithm to perform numerical simulations of acoustic field variability. This data-constrained environmental model links the oceanographic field, dominated by internal waves, to the random sound speed distribution that drives acoustic field fluctuations in this region. Working with a suite of environmental measurements along a 42-km track, a parameter set was developed that characterized the influence of the internal wave field on sound speed perturbations in the water column. The acoustic propagation environment was reconstructed from this set in conjunction with bottom parameters extracted by use of acoustic inversion techniques. The resulting space- and time-varying sound speed field was synthesized from an internal wave field composed of both a spatially diffuse (linear) contribution and a spatially localized (nonlinear) component, the latter consisting of solitary waves propagating with the internal tide. Acoustic simulation results at 224 and 400 Hz were obtained from a solution to an elastic parabolic equation and are presented as examples of propagation through this evolving environment. Modal decomposition of the acoustic field received at a vertical line array was used to clarify the effects of both internal wave contributions to the complex structure of the received signals.
Tomographic inversion for sediment parameters in shallow water108(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1286221View Description Hide Description
This article discusses inversions for bottom geoacoustic properties using broadband acoustic signals obtained from explosive sources. The experimental data used for the inversions are SUS charge explosions acquired on a vertical hydrophone array during the Shelf Break Primer Experiment conducted south of New England in the Middle Atlantic Bight in August 1996. The SUS signals were analyzed for their time-frequency behavior using wavelets. The group speed dispersion curves were obtained from the wavelet scalogram of the SUS signals. A genetic algorithm (GA) was used for the inversion of sound speeds in the water column and compressional wave speeds in the sediment layers. The variations in the sound speeds in the water column were represented using empirical orthogonal functions (EOFs). A range-independent normal mode routine was used to construct the replica fields corresponding to the parameters. Comparison of group speeds for modes 1 to 9 and for a range of frequencies 8 to 200 Hz was used to arrive at the best parameter fit. An efficient hybrid optimization scheme using the GA and a Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm is presented. Linear perturbation methods were also used to "fine tune" the inversions and to obtain resolution and variance estimates. Analysis was also done to compute the degree of convergence of each of the parameters by explicitly calculating the Hessian matrices numerically. A posteriori estimation of mean and covariance was also done to obtain error estimates. Group speeds for the inverted sound speed fields provide an excellent match to the experimental data. The inverted sediment compressional speed profile compares well with in situ measurements.
In situ estimation of sediment sound speed and critical angle108(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1285953View Description Hide Description
Understanding the basic physics of sound penetration into ocean sediments is essential for the design of sonar systems that can detect, localize, classify, and identify buried objects. In this regard the sound speed of the sediment is a crucial parameter as the ratio of sound speed at the water-sediment interface determines the critical angle. Sediment sound speed is typically measured from core samples using high frequency (100's of kHz) pulsed travel time measurements. Earlier experimental work on subcritical penetration into sandy sediments has suggested that the effective sound speed in the 2–20 kHz range is significantly lower than the core measurement results. Simulations using Biot theory for propagation in porous media confirmed that sandy sediments may be highly dispersive in the range 1–100 kHz for the type of sand in which the experiments were performed. Here it is shown that a direct and robust estimate of the critical angle, and therefore the sediment sound speed, at the lower frequencies can be achieved by analyzing the grazing angle dependence of the phase delays observed on a buried array. A parametric source with secondary frequencies in the 2–16 kHz range was directed toward a sandy bottom similar to the one investigated in the earlier study. An array of 14 hydrophones was used to measure penetrated field. The critical angle was estimated by analyzing the variations of signal arrival times versus frequency, burial depth, and grazing angle. Matching the results with classical transmission theory yielded a sound speed estimate in the sand of 1626 m/s in the frequency range 2–5 kHz, again significantly lower the 1720 m/s estimated from the cores at 200 kHz. However, as described here, this dispersion is consistent with the predictions of the Biot theory for this type of sand.
Measurement technique for bottom scattering in shallow water108(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1287021View Description Hide Description
Sonar performance predictions of reverberation in shallow water rely upon good estimates of the bottom-scattering strength. However, little is understood about bottom scattering in shallow water in the frequency range 400–4000 Hz, particularly its dependency upon frequency and its relationship to the physical properties of the seafloor. In order to address these issues, a new measurement technique has been developed to probe the frequency and angular dependency of bottom-scattering strength. The experimental technique is described which employs either coherent or incoherent sources (lightbulbs). In addition, measurement and modeling results for two diverse shallow water sites are presented. At one site, the scattering appears to arise at or near the water–sediment interface. At the other site, scattering from a 23-m sub-bottom horizon is clearly apparent in the data at and below 1800 Hz. The fact that our measurement technique can directly reveal the presence of sub-bottom scattering is a significant advance in the development of methods to explore the physical mechanisms that control bottom scattering.
Low-grazing-angle monostatic acoustic reverberation from rough and heterogeneous seafloors108(2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1288664View Description Hide Description
Numerical wavefield modeling, based on time domain finite difference solutions to the full elastic wave equation, is used to quantitatively predict the sensitivity of monostatic backscatter to variations in geological properties of the seabed. This article addresses the hypothesis that observed backscatter signals from the seafloor are produced by a combination of seafloor (interface) and subseafloor (volume) scattering from structures having variations at scale lengths comparable to the wavelength of the insonifying acoustic field. Wavelength-scale seafloor roughness and subseafloor volume heterogeneity parameters are defined using stochastic spatial probability functions having Gaussian autocorrelations. The range of the variations in these parameters is constrained to realistic values based on estimates derived from seafloor bathymetry and other geologic data. Modeling results show that backscattering from rough, basaltic (hard) bottoms, in the absence of large-scale seafloor slope, is dominated by rough surface scattering with little contribution from volume scattering. Contrary to this, sediment (soft) bottoms with subseafloor volume heterogeneity, with or without seafloor roughness, produce significant backscattering signals compared to a homogeneous sediment bottom.

Scenario Generator Determines Impact of NHS Cuts
Simulation tool aids NHS workforce in maintaining quality of care despite staffing cuts.
Scotland's Health Secretary, Nicola Sturgeon, meets NHS board heads and the BMA this week to examine the impact of the reduced staffing levels announced in June this year.
Ms Sturgeon told the Press Association that:
"It is my job to ensure the NHS delivers the best quality of care, manages the financial challenges facing it and takes the right decisions now to secure services in the future."
Mark Elder, CEO of SIMUL8 Corporation, the company which develops Scenario Generator says. "This is exactly what we are here for – providing tools that let teams quickly test out the effect of proposed changes in the health service, visualising the impact it will have in years ahead within seconds. The NHS needs to change to cope with the budget cuts, but the cost and risk of trying out ideas slows down what needs to be happening now – simulations remove that problem."
SIMUL8 Corporation'
Bedfordshire PCT used Scenario Generator to create a "virtual PCT" that quickly simulated many possible scenarios and found one that not only saved them £1.5m every year, but was agreed by all the medical staff to be just as good, if not better for patients than the current solution.
Dr Nick Gaunt from the NHS Institute for Innovation and Improvement says; "This kind of software really comes into its own as healthcare organisations plan for the current financial climate".
SIMUL8 have recently finished making Scenario Generator work with data specifically related to Scotland, offering Scottish organisations the chance to see the benefits that so many English PCTs have already discovered.

Lab901 and Biofortuna are collaborating on the optimization of Biofortuna's range of multiplex PCR diagnostic kits for use on Lab901's automated ScreenTape PCR platform. Biofortuna's kits encompass diagnostics for celiac disease and other HLA-related disorders including reactive arthritis, diabetes, and drug hypersensitivity.
"Biofortuna's blend of easy-to-use, one-step PCR technology and multiplexing capabilities means we are confident of quickly taking market share", comments Mike Bunce, Ph.D., CEO. "Having evaluated several automated systems, we have chosen to work with Lab901 because of the ease of use, cost-effectiveness, and reproducibility of the ScreenTape platform."
First launched in 2007, ScreenTape is now sold in more than 20 countries through a network of distribution partners. Lab901 currently sells ScreenTape systems optimized for use with the Seegene Seeplex kits for the detection of infectious diseases such as respiratory viruses, sepsis, sexually transmitted infections, and diarrheal diseases.
Lab901 also recently introduced two new versions of ScreenTape for protein and RNA analysis, targeted at the biomedical research market. These new products are currently being sold directly throughout Europe, and global rollout is expected to start in 2010.
In September Lab901 raised £2.4 million in an equity funding from its consortium of investors. The company aims to use the cash to expand international sales of its ScreenTape laboratory-analysis platform and further develop its product range.

Skip to comments.Russian Fishing With Grenades Backfires
Posted on 08/06/2012 8:07:58 AM PDT by navysealdad
Video of two men fishing with grenades backfires.
(Excerpt) Read more at angelfire.com ...
Who is holding the beer (or vodka)? That seems mandatory for this sort of thing.
Nice lookin' newsbabe. Dumbassed fishermen.
That is quite insane funny because they appear to be unhurt, but could someone with more knowledge about grenades explain why that one went off after less than a second? Seems like a defect or a grenade not meant to be hand-held.
What fishing amateurs! You are suppose to use dynamite and you throw it AWAY from the boat. Uh... that is what I heard. /s
Kind of like liberals running our country.
Yes, but less deadly.
So close to receiving a nomination to the 2012 Darwinsky award.
Better luck next time Vladomir.
How do you say - "Hey y'all, watch this" - in Russian?
....and we now rely on the Russians to get to the space station :(.
Premature Eboomeration. A common problem with liberal-commies and their junk.
Not fishing. Filming a scene for a movie. One of the guys died.
I wondered about that. The guy in front was in a very bad spot judging by the state of the boat.
Held it too long after the pin was pulled is my guess...
Another reason vodka and explosives don't mix...
Remember...when the pin is pulled, Mr. Grenade is longer your friend.
Most grenades have fuzes that burn for about 3 seconds after their pins have been pulled. An American grenade has a handle that' s held on by a pin. There's a cocked hammer under the handle that the handle holds in place. When the operator pulls the pin the handle is free to release as soon as the operator releases the handle. When the handle's released, the hammer flips it off and goes forward, striking a percussion cap, thereby firing the cap. The cap's detonation ignites the grenade's fuze that normally burns about three seconds before it reaches the main charge. I suspect the grenade's operator in this video may have continued to hold on to the grenade after he released the lever, thereby causing what appears to be a premature detonation.
Rule #1 drinking several bottles of Vodka and then playing with a grenade is not a good idea.
Depth charging yourself while fishing can have deleterious results.
Right. This wanker wasn't holding the grenade tight enough and let the fuse go while posing for his photo-op. I always remembered that a hand grenade should be at least three seconds. So this is completely "loose nut behind the wheel", right? Thank you for the help.
Hook and line cannot compete with being blown up? The fishes being with the fishes just ain't safe. Get out the grenades there is a binladen out there to bring up. Heck bring out the depth charges. Blow binladen up, real good, one more time.
So what happened to the other grenade???? It never lit. Something's funny about this.
These guys are dynamite.
" Depth charging yourself while fishing can have deleterious results."
I do try to avoid this..
I read an account of a couple of soldiers that had gotten their hands on a case of old grenades from Ordinance Disposal and some spoiled chickens from the mess hall, and decided to go shark fishing. They went out in a rubber raft and were tying a grenade to a chicken, and a piece of fishing line to the pin ring. They'd throw one out and just before the shark would swallow it they'd pull the pin. It was fun watching the sharks blow up until one of them swallowed the chicken and then turned and swam under the boat.
Next time, get an old fashioned hand cranked field telephone and use that. It will get you fish, it is reusable, and it won't blow you up.
The knife one's better. That one has endless possibilities for Lewinski jokes.
Oh yeah. We need to talk more about rock n roll then...
Drop me a line.
So LAUGH IT UP, chucklechick. Jeez.
In America, you use fish-finder.
In Soviet Russia, FISH FINDS YOU!
Vodka RULES! LOL!
"If yer dumb, ya die!"
Note to self....
How does a grenade have a backfire?
Stupidity should never go unrewarded.
They were just fishin' for the ones close to the surface.
Guess he got his limit.
I don't think that dropping the grenade just off the side of the boat was what those who fish with explosives had in mind.
"Stupidity cannot be cured with money, or through education, or by legislation. Stupidity is not a sin, the victim can't help being stupid. But stupidity is the only universal capital crime: the sentence is death, there is no appeal, and execution is carried out automatically and without pity."

NEW YORK Ś Where once the post-holiday schedule was a blizzard of chilly reruns, January is aburst with premieres and finales.
Already, the much-adored British miniseries ôDownton Abbeyö has made its much-awaited season return Sundays on PBS.
On IFC on Fridays, the hilarious ôPortlandiaö is back for its third season of sketch comedy poking fun at the peculiarities of Portland, Ore., starring Fred Armisen and Carrie Brownstein.
And NBCĺs mystery melodrama ôDeceptionö has arrived on Mondays. Meagan Good stars as a detective going undercover at the home of a rich family with whom she was once friendly, to investigate a murder within the clan.
On Tuesday, PBSĺ ôAmerican Experienceö begins a three-week documentary miniseries, ôThe Abolitionists,ö spotlighting Frederick Douglass, William Lloyd Garrison, Harriet Beecher Stowe, John Brown and Angelina Grimke.
Also on Tuesday, the FX drama ôJustifiedö is returning for its fourth season of Kentucky hill-country crime-fighting led by Deputy U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens (series star Timothy Olyphant).
On Thursday, comedic action centers at the White House with the premiere of NBCĺs ô1600 Penn.ö Josh Gad (ôThe Book of Mormonö) stars as the goofball son of the incumbent U.S. president (played by Bill Pullman) who keeps the first family in a stir, yet manages to make everything turn out all right by the final fade-out.
The Gallaghers of ôShamelessö are a much different family. In this dark comedy, William H. Macy stars as the boozy single father of a brood of kids who manage their ragtag Chicago homestead in spite of Dadĺs overindulgences. Also starring Emmy Rossum, it returns Jan. 13 for its third season on Showtime.
Also on Jan. 13, HBOĺs comedy ôGirlsö returns for a second season sure to be at least as ballyhooed, discussed and argued about as the first. Lena Dunham (who also writes, produces, directs and created the series) stars as one of a quartet of twentysomething gal pals in New York.
Right after ôGirls,ö HBO launches the second season of ôEnlightened,ö an affecting comedy starring Laura Dern as a confused New Age-y activist whoĺs bent on changing the world.
What was Carrie Bradshaw like before Sarah Jessica Parker and ôSex and the Cityö? Find out on ôThe Carrie Diaries,ö which debuts on the CW on Jan. 14. AnnaSophia Robb stars as the high-school era Carrie in this likable prequel.
ôAmerican Idolö returns on Jan. 16 on Fox. Veteran judge Randy Jackson will be joined by Mariah Carey, Nicki Minaj and Keith Urban. Ryan Seacrest, as always, is the affable host.
After five seasons, Foxĺs lovably inscrutable sci-fi series ôFringeö concludes its head-scratching run on Jan. 18. Stars include Anna Torv, Joshua Jackson and John Noble.
Foxĺs bloody suspense drama ôThe Followingö premieres Jan. 21. Kevin Bacon stars as a former FBI agent drafted back into service to chase a serial murderer and his vicious disciples.
My, how Spartacusĺ army has grown! Commanding thousands of freed slaves, Spartacus is primed to bring down the entire Roman Republic as the final season begins for ôSpartacus: War of the Damned,ö Jan. 25 on Starz. Liam McIntyre plays the rebel leader.
The world of ôDallasö will be rocked during its second season with the death of arch-villain oilman J.R. Ewing (played, of course, by Larry Hagman, who passed away in November while the series was in production). Also starring Patrick Duffy and Linda Gray, this rebooted (so to speak) version of the long-running CBS prime-time soap returns on TNT on Jan. 28.
FX weighs in with an edgy new drama ôThe Americansö on Jan. 30. It stars Matthew Rhys and Keri Russell as two KGB agents posing as the heads of a normal American household in the 1980s, as they work tirelessly to bring down the U.S. on behalf of Mother Russia.
On Jan. 31, NBC unveils a new medical drama ôDo No Harm.ö Steve Pasquale (ôRescue Meö) stars as a neurosurgeon with a great bedside manner who inconveniently shares a body with his sociopathic alter ego.
The same night, NBC closes the book on the brilliant mockery of ô30 Rock.ö This Tina Fey comedy wraps seven seasons of making fun of pop culture, modern life and especially its own real-life broadcast network Ś which, like the rest of the TV universe, has even more midseason goodies in store come February.
