Added four more figures to the sci-fi skirmish selection. On the left we have the last of the alien bounty hunters. The three figures on the right are part of Khurasan's post-apocalyptic line of figures. Wolf-skin there doesn't do much for me in a sci-fi setting, but the two on the right are going to make fine sci-fi adventurers.

Sci-Fi Mercs
More painted miniatures ready to roll. These are more Khurasan figures - the bounty hunter pack 80% complete - for use in some sci-fi skirmishing. Still haven't run a game of 5 Parsecs from Home just yet, but we're getting closer.

15mm Objective Markers
Nothing fancy this update. Just a couple of quick shots of my freshly painted scientists from Khurasan Miniatures. The scientist on the left seems like a bit of a mis-cast - his right eye has a gaping hole where his glasses should be, but it works just fine. My guy has a monocle instead of glasses.

Tyranny of Dragons, Chapter 1.2
The big blue dragon seen earlier in the day had returned and was strafing the tower with its breath weapon. Keeping its distance, the only real option was to hop into the seat of a lone ballista pn the parapet and take a shot. Ever the bluffer, your humble storyteller cast a quick illusion to make the bolt look magic. Direct hit! Not enough to kill an old brute like the one overhead, the bolt scored enough damage to make the dragon think twice. Aramis followed up with a quick holy bolt of some sort, and that was enough to send the dragon headed for the countryside.
Finally, a chance to rest. The whole party was depleted of its "until long rest" abilities, and this wouldn't be the time. A short rest to patch up the wounded gave the attacking cultists time to get some organization together – a peek from the keep revealed two main clusters of attackers and a tough choice. Hit the overall commander over in the town square and end this madness? Or mount a rescue mission to save the scores of folks holed up in the local chapel from the larger kobold and cultist besieging force?

A short rest to patch up the wounded gave the attacking cultists time to get some organization together – a peek from the keep revealed two main clusters of attackers and a tough choice. Hit the overall commander over in the town square and end this madness? Or mount a rescue mission to save the scores of folks holed up in the local chapel from the larger kobold and cultist besieging force?
First level with no spells left in the arsenal? We'll take the sneaky route and head for the Church, thank you very much.
So Escobar, rotund dwarf and apparent keymaster escorted the group down into the undercroft where a secret door and tunnel would allow the party to slip past the besiegers (almost) un-noticed. A couple rusted-shut gates and a fight with two mobs of rats later, and the group stood just inside of a fake sewer pipe below the walls of the keep. Just as they would have set out on their rescue, a kobold patrol blundered by. With little time to discuss matters, the group ambushed the raiders slaughtering all but one cultist would escaped back into town.
Nothing to do but hustle up and hope to make it back before cult reinforcements.
At the Church of Chakaal, three mobs block any hope of rescue. The leader – an armor clad bruiser – had a mob battering the front doors with an improvised ram. A bigger mob complete with large drakes stood milling about the side of the church, looking for weak spots. The smallest mob, and the obvious weak link in the siege, was trying to burn down the large rear doors of the church.
Tally-ho. Our four heroes charged into the rear ranks of an
enemy twice their number. Surprise
proved telling, as did the smokescreen the besiegers themselves were sending
up. Aramis and Karren, cleric and
paladin respectively, swung for the fences, putting the two cultist leaders
down on the ground with no time to sound a definitive alarm. The half-elf quickly snatched up the cloak
and scimitar of one of the two human leaders of the enemy mob and barked orders
at the kobold ranks, thinning them by half.
|I think the DM said Church of Chakaal. I'm not really
up on my theology of Faerun, but in the campaign that goes
on in my head, the Church is totally dedicated to Chakaal.
The following conversation demonstrated that comedy lives even in the midst of tragedy. The party turned to the "face" of the party, Mr. Fast Talk Half-Elf, to convince the townies that rescue had arrived. But first, Aramis pointed out, you might want to ditch the cultist disguise.
Oh. Yeah. So…
"Tell her Liane sent us."
"Liane sent us."
"Tell her Escobar sent us."
"Escobar sent us."
"Tell her –"
"Hey! Who's got the 17 Charisma here?"
"It's hard to tell sometimes."
The door cracked open, revealing a lovely half-elf priestess, a human cleric, and 22 other villagers including the priest and priestess, which the party hustled out the back and into the woods. A half-hearted attempt to distract the remaining raiders turned into a full blown retreat when the front door collapsed in splinters.
The two dozen citizens might have been safely out of the chapel and into the woods, but they weren't out of the woods yet. Remember the one that got away? The cultist that survived the ambush at the back door of the keep? The now much larger party arrived at the false drain just moments before a large raiding party. The heroes took up position amid the brush and started to hustle the citizens into the dank tunnel, but it was clear the kobold raiders were going to cut them off before they could get everyone in.
So Raane, the illusionist, quickly hunkered down and cast a minor illusion – a dead kobold farther up the stream valley. This bought the villagers a precious few rounds in which the aged, infirm, and young could escape. The sally-port cum escape hatch safely locked and sealed behind them, the group still had no time for rest. One more encountered loomed, but it was late and the boys (young and old) were too tired to see that one through to the end of Chapter One.

Three Brothers
Still prepping to run a game of "Five Parsecs From Home", a game that calls out for a bunch of random figures more than a coherent squad of uniformed types. The failed experiment in tweaking 15mm figures left me with a couple of heavy armored alien types. To split the difference between affiliated figures and one-offs, I painted up three brothers with very different color schemes, then tied them together with green stripes. While they make for a nice little mini-squad, they can also be slotted into a trading vessel's crew as the muscle of the group.
Meanwhile, I've been slowly building up more interior terrain as well. This control panel is a bit of a test piece. The colors and paint look great...
...but I'm not exactly thrilled with the height of the unit. Needs more elevation to really look the part of some decent cover. The figures are supposed to be big, but a knee-high control panel doesn't cut the mustard. Have to decide between adding a piece of square dowel to double the height, or finding a different material to use for the base.

Scatter Terrain Mix
In anticipation of a new terrain build - 15mm interiors something along the lines of Tiny Solitary Soldiers - here are a few pieces of scatter cover. First up, three plastic trees. These are repainted Toob Trees primed black and dry brushed up.
The bases of the trees are fortification pieces from the old game, "Shogun" or "Samurai Swords". They have been flipped over and filled with a sand/white glue mix. The colored spots are supposed to be flowers.
|The bottom row of pieces make great planters.
These boring old cylinders were free, but they have an interesting source. They are small vented tubes that contain desiccants. Pharmacists put them into packages of drugs to keep them moisture free. I went down to Walgreen's, a major drugstore chain here in the US of A, and sweet talked the pharmacist into parting with a small handful for my son's "science project". That seemed a lot more likely to work than having to go through the whole wargames-or-model-railroad song and dance. It worked, too. That nice ol' gal gave me a half dozen for free.
As always, the major dytsopian corporation that runs everything in my games is Buy N' Large. They have a bright, recognizable logo that is easy to paint at almost any scale. My interior terrain is likely going to be bright and airy with clean white walls and plenty of robots.
All figures in this post are 15mm.co.uk figures with head swaps.

Berfday Case
My big birthday present this year turned out to be a new miniature carrying case. The Almost Awesome Storage Case just wasn't cutting the proverbial mustard any more. My collection is getting wider and more varied, so it was time for a change. Behold the Plano 1362 2-by Rack System, a tackle box designed for the modern miniature wargamer. Also for sci-fi and fantasy wargamers. If you click on the link above you'll see the "Customers Who Bought This Also Bought" is dominated by X-Wing players.
So what's with the "Thick Grip" roll of cupboard lining paper? That's my secret weapon. The plastic trays/drawers that come with this bad boy are really, really slick. Some people line them with magnetic paper to hold their washer mounted minis in place. I don't always use washers for my minis, because some manufacturers use really thick bases on their miniatures. (I'm looking at you, GZG.)
This particular brand of shelf liner paper grips without adhesives, so while your figures don't slide, they don't get coated with adhesives. It's also very soft - almost spongelike - so when the inevitable slips and spills happen, your figures lie down on a soft surface and still don't slide around. With sheet magnets a figure that falls rattles all over in a fully hard lined case.
FYI for those of you shopping for one of these, the Plano 3700 4-By Rack System is similar. It comes with four drawers, but I can't recommend it for two reasons. For one thing, it's total footprint is smaller, so you don't have that much more storage room. For another thing, the drawers are a lot shorter, so if you have any outsized figures (like my space dwarf battle-mechs - the purple guys in the second shot) they won't fit in the rack.
The top case would be great for vehicles or the big monster figures. Mine holds separate cases for the armies with lots of figures - in this case my space dwarves (left) and my big green alien bug horde (right).
Hope this helps those of you looking for a great case.

Everton are exploring a site for a potential new stadium 'close' to Goodison Park, it was revealed on Wednesday. The announcement was made at a General Meeting of the Club's Shareholders. Chief Executive Robert Elstone revealed the Blues have been in "constant dialogue" with Liverpool City Council over a new stadium.Mr Elstone said: "One piece of land has been thoroughly investigated by the Club."And chairman Bill Kenwright added: "We've had strenuous meetings with a very supportive (Mayor) Joe Anderson and the council. Last time we spoke, I think there were six or seven sites - now there are two or three, and there's one that I would love. But again, it's down to the funding package.The possibility of sharing a stadium with city neighbours Liverpool was also brought up by one attendee and Mr Kenwright confirmed the idea would remain "on the agenda".
He said: "We've had a couple of meetings with Liverpool and the Council but it is not moving forward at the moment.
"I agree with you on the obvious advantages it would bring. We have identified a site close to Goodison and we have a council at the moment who are extremely positive in their desire to help us. If we take forward what we're looking at now, I think you would be happier than sharing with the Reds."

"The quality, attention by the editors to framing the picture, coloring in the photos, and speed of delivery were impressive. Thank you."
"I am a long time customer of Tiny Prints, and am a huge fan. I am always happy with the final product. The thing that really sets tinyprints apart from all the other online shops out there - the customer service is the best I've ever experienced. I actually had a Tiny Prints designer call me with a suggestion to improve our holiday card. Who does that? Unbelievable. What a great company."
"I was very amazed when I recieved my cards. The paper quality is excellent, the design very beautiful, and the shipping exceptionally fast! Overall rating is 5 stars! Highly recommended."
"Love the "year in review" format for this card--perfect for updates that we otherwise have a hard time cramming into smaller formats. Designer was super helpful in providing the free review and suggesting changes, as well as making requested last-minute adjustments."
"I received the card and they're sitting on my desk ready to send out for Christmas so I've glanced at them every morning for a week now...I love them! Super cute, fresh style, I used the "vintage" photo lens to give it a more muted color scheme as seen in the photo example and it turned out great. The "Joy" does look less like real foil than it appears online, although it's the best it can be as far as replication without the real thing and I expected this. I also edited the tiny prints logo on the back by emailing the designer and instead included a Bible verse and I'm very pleased with the way that turned out. Overall just an eye-catching card that I'm very glad I ordered."

Jesse James: Leave Sandra Bullock Out of Custody Battle
Lindemulder suggests that 'The Proposal' star was trying to "take away [her] daughter," but James wants Bullock left alone.
"Sandra Bullock is not a party to this litigation," the "Monster Garage' host's lawyer tells PEOPLE.
"Mr. James's sole concern is for the safety, welfare and best interests of his daughter. The proper forum to resolve this case is in the courtroom," his lawyer adds.
Bullock has been raising James' 5-year-old daughter Sunny since January, when Lindemulder was sent to prison for tax evasion. The actress has also written a letter to the court questioning the adult film actress' ability as a mother.

Can't leave Sandra out of it if she puts herself into it. I commend Sandra for wanting the best for her husbands daughter.
- Friday 06 NovemberBy milagrogirl
If Sandra Bullock is writing amicus letters to the court regarding her desire to have custody and commenting to the media - then she is most certainly a "party" to the litigation. If James doesn't want his wife to be involved, then he should have manned-up and dealt with this by commenting on behalf of the couple and addressed his ex directly - IN PRIVATE, not through his lawyer to the media. As it is, he just looks like a big p-whipped ass - but he's getting what he deserves for hooking up with a porno star to begin with. And for that matter, Sandy shouldn't be lowering herself and it says a lot about her that she married this douchebag who obviously had a lot of unresolved baggage going in. I mean, come on, the guy's no angel, himself. No one is going to win in this situation, especially not the child. Shut up and take this out the media and take care of your busines.
- Friday 06 November
Yes Jim, you are right. One of the biggest reasons I especially like Sandra Bullock is the way she carries herself in public. (On interviews and the like.) She strives to be thought of as "just one of the girls" instead of the usual "looky here, I'm a movie star. She is one classy woman in my book and now that I see how she is sticking up for what she thinks is best for her husband's daughter, I think I love her even more.

you are wrong, he is doing the best thing, and is a good father,,
- Friday 06 NovemberBy A Wise Man
The fact is that it is Sandra Bulloch that is making the most noise in this litigation. If Jesse wants her out of this than he should tall her to stay out of it. That obviously isn't happening. Sandra seems to be on top of things here though, and seems to also be a better mom that the kids real mother is. Looks like neither of the blood parents are any good at being parents at all...
- Friday 06 November
Sandra Bullock is not suing anyone for custody. Jesse, as the biological father, is the one suing for custody. Shame on the mother for using Sandra Bullock's fame, to make this a stepmother issue. Bullock has proven she's a loving, caring stepmom who is supporting her husband's efforts to provide a safe, healthy home for his daughter. The facts (and the police record) speak volumes.
- Friday 06 NovemberBy R
Jessie James is a good father, you don't know the whole story. Sandra is his wife she has co-parent with him and it's in her interest as well. As far as him going hollywood that couldn't be further than the truth. He doesn't need Sandra's money, he has plenty of it before he met her. Even without his tv show, he has a successful business. I commend Sandra for looking past the tattoos and getting to know a great man. I've seen him with his children at school and he isn't putting on a show.I really hope the Courts decide and do what is right. Would you be okay leaving your child with a felon? That's who Janine married, not only a felon but a person who distributed drugs and she met in a halfway house and married after 2 or 3 months.
- Friday 06 November
hey hey all people need use their own eyes ! jesse james is good father but his wife need BACK OFF ! That is between on jesse and his ex wife only on their kid. ..that their own problem ! not his wife's.. if his wife want be support james's side than write on a wall about his ex wife ! her past is past hey Sandra , pls dont need ugly about your step daughter's real mom why ? you have respect on sunny's wish if you want be model rol as stepmom then do it be grow up !
- Sunday 08 NovemberBy Danno
I don't believe that Sandra should be the one handling the courts however the courts will look at her character as a person to consider whether she is suitable to be providing for Jesse's daughter the same way they will be evaluating Janine so she is already caught up in the whole ordeal whether Jesse likes it or not.I think that Jesse is going to have a hard time keeping her out of it no matter how hard he tries.

It is different from comfort suite where I stayed previously in term of size 57m2. That is huge!!!. The rooms and parlour are comfortable and hardly you differentiate between Standard, Luxury and VIP except the facilities inside the rooms. It is a great hotel to reside both short and long stay with value for money. The breakfast is superb..Kudos to HB hotel. The staff can speak English but not as much as expected.. HB Hotel is a HOME far awayfrom HOME.
Noice in the Neighbourhood where construction work is ongoing.
The Sequoia is very well located and it has great staff, however they need some upgrade for their cable TV service, they receive visitors from abroad, many "in-transit" ex-pats and yet the do not offer TV stations from abroad. Also the phone system needs some upgrade during my last two stays I had problems receiving international calls (this was reported to front desk staff). The restaurant also needs an upgrade, the setting and breakfast options are a bit oudated.
See above
The front office staff was very helpful both when I checked in and at check out.
The restaurant is a bit outdated and the service is not up to par. Also I requested extra pillows and it took for ever to arrive.
The access control at the elevator to prevent intruders.
There was no access control to prevent intruders when using the stairs. It is too far from sao Paulo main city center.
The space and the full kitchen and the location.
It was not told that there was only one king size bed and not 2 queen beds. Staff showed little willingness to solve this problem, even though we were booking the most expensive room in the hotel. Everything sounded a little bit amateur.
Was close to the hotel 24/7 grocery Store Pão de Açucar. Otherwise I will be hungry because the hotel doesn't have restaurante working.
The Swimming pool wasn't working, The restaurant wasn't working The safe wans't working The Internet only worked after we complain about I asked for Ice cube and they didn't have because was holiday and the restaurant was closed I complain to reduce the price because we choose this hotel for our honey moon because in the website showed all the facilities above and nothing was working. I loose my lovely honey moon and this was so far the worse hotel that I stay in all my life.
Huge rooms, very clean, fantastic location.
Next to a huge construction project, so VERY loud during day. Obviously won't be that way forever, but be wary of what looks like a massive tower going up next door.

Small Business Saturday set for British launch
Labour's business spokesman backs day to promote independent retailers
James Thompson
James Thompson is a business reporter at The Independent.
Sunday 31 March 2013
Shadow Business Secretary Chukka Umunna is launching a British version of a Serena Williams-backed US initiative which boosted spending on independent retailers by $5.5bn (£3.6bn) over Christmas last year.
For the past three years, Small Business Saturday, which is held just after Thanksgiving on the fourth Thursday of November and is backed by President Barack Obama, has one of the busiest shopping days of the year over the Pond. The British version, which Mr Umunna has been trying to set up for months, will be held on 7 December.
Seven business organisations, including the British Chambers of Commerce and the Federation of Small Businesses, representing 370,000 firms have signed up to the UK initiative.
As Williams, who is the world's top women's tennis player, Sin City actress Jessica Alba, basketball star Paul Pierce and NFL quarterback Drew Brees supported the US's campaign in 2012.
The UK version will be launched against the backdrop of a traumatic time for many retailers in town centres, where an average of one in seven shops is empty after a series of failures over the past five years.
Mr Umunna said: "I want to make Small Business Saturday a reality in Britain to actively champion, celebrate and showcase small, independent businesses on one of the busiest shopping days of the year."
He added: "Small Business Saturday has been a great success in the US and has grown into a movement, boosting spending in small businesses by $5.5bn last year."
The MP and the business organisations are working on the launch with the credit card giant American Express, which owns the copyright to Small Business Saturday and has promoted the US scheme since its inception in 2010.
A spokesperson for the credit card giant said: "American Express has a strong tradition of working with small businesses and we are currently considering how we can support a UK Small Business Saturday initiative later this year."
The coalition has launched a series of retail initiatives, notably the Mary Portas review of the high street, which led to 27 pilot towns receiving taxpayer funding. It has also shared £10m among 100 local authorities, as part of its High Street Innovation Fund. But both initiatives have been dogged by slow progress and have faced accusations of wasting money on seemingly frivolous items, such as spending more than £1,600 to hire a Peppa Pig costume for the day.
The other five organisations backing Mr Umunna's plans are the Association of Convenience Stores, Forum of Private Business, British Independent Retailers Association, the Northern Ireland Independent Retail Trade Association and the National Federation of Retail Newsagents.

Lawmakers in Vermont weigh marijuana decriminalizationThe Associated Press | April 03,2013MONTPELIER — A Vermont House committee is taking testimony on a proposal to decriminalize possession of small amounts of marijuana.
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bill Lippert says he wants to scale back the original proposal from decriminalizing possession of two ounces or less to one ounce.
The Hinesburg Democrat also says the committee is unlikely to approve a provision in the original bill that would have decriminalized possession of a small number of marijuana plants.
Public Safety Commissioner Keith Flynn told the panel during Wednesday's hearing that a single marijuana plant frequently grows to produce up to a pound of pot.
He says that doesn't square with the idea of decriminalizing possession of a small amount.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER – The United States Department of Agriculture announced today that schools in... Full StoryBy Brent Curtis Full StoryCommittee filled for Full Story

Government contractors, small business in TD Bank's focus
Send this to a friend
- Margie Manning
- Quality and Content Editor- Tampa Bay Business Journal
- Email | Facebook | Twitter | Google+
TAMPA — A Department of Defense strategy shift has created expanded business possibilities for government contractors in the Tampa Bay area.
George Hall, named TD Bank's market leader in the Greater Tampa Bay region in mid-December, hopes to capitalize on the shift from conventional warfare to special operations – a move that puts the United States Special Operations Command at MacDill Air Force Base front and center.
"There's massive spending and realignment of defense dollars. SOCOM is the heartbeat, the nexus of that issue," Hall said. "I am keenly interested in what support is available as it relates to government contractors. There's lots of opportunity there and we need to make sure as a business community we are doing all we can to support that."
TD Bank is looking at how it can do more business with government contractors as Hall settles into his new job as regional vice president, with direct responsibility for commercial and small business lending, and joint responsibility for retail branches.
Finding the bottom
Small business lending is a major focus for TD Bank, which in one year has gone from No. 47 to No. 3 in Florida in Small Business Administration lending, Hall said. The bank last year launched a small business checking suite and a new remote deposit capture product, and updated and improved a free online banking service for small business customers.
Commercial real estate is showing some optimistic signs, as the market appears to have found its bottom, Hall said.
"The flow of deals that are depressing the market has dissipated significantly. That's when you begin to establish what the bottom truly is because then you have normal market forces driving demand and absorption," Hall said.
Margie Manning is Quality and Content Editor of the Tampa Bay Business Journal. She also covers banking, finance and professional services.

Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton will try this week at the United Nations to keep the worst-kept secret in the Middle East: Israel's status as a nuclear power.
In recent weeks, the U.S. government has held talks with Egypt on a proposal to eliminate nuclear weapons in the Middle East. The U.S. diplomacy on the proposal also has been coordinated closely with Israel, according to a senior White House official.
That proposal is likely to be a major point of debate this month at the review conference for the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) that is set to begin in New York on Monday. Mrs. Clinton is leading the U.S. delegation to the opening of the conference.
RELATED STORY: At U.N., Iran leader rejects nuke charges
The United States is trying to rally the U.N. Security Council to pass a fourth resolution to sanction Iran's nuclear program. The conference will focus on ways to strengthen the fraying treaty and isolate Iran, U.S. officials said.
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad will attend the conference as the head of his country's delegation. He is expected to raise the issue of Israel's nuclear weapons to deflect attention from Iran's enrichment of uranium.
Iran could have an ally in traditional rival Egypt, whose delegation will be pushing for a resolution that would have the effect of singling out Israel, one of the three countries in the world that has never signed the NPT.
As an undeclared nuclear power, the Israeli government does not confirm that it has nuclear weapons. It is illegal in Israel for newspapers to print that the country has nuclear arms.
For 40 years, the United States has been a partner in Israel's nuclear opacity as well. In a deal fashioned in 1969 between President Nixon and Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir, the United States does not pressure Israel to join the treaty, which would require the Jewish state to give up its nuclear weapons. Israel, in turn, does not acknowledge it has the weapons.
The Egyptian working paper of March 2010 on the nuclear-free Middle East threatens to upset this secret understanding. Specifically, it would require member states of the NPT to "disclose in their national reports on the implementation of the resolution on the Middle East all information available to them on the nature and scope of Israeli nuclear facilities and activities, including information pertaining to previous nuclear transfers to Israel."
The Egyptian working paper also calls for a conference by 2011 on making the Middle East free of nuclear weapons and a special envoy to coordinate such a conference.
Speaking to reporters Friday, Ellen Tauscher, undersecretary of state for international security and arms control, said the United States supports in principle the long-term goal of a nuclear-free Middle East.
But she said that a conference on this issue should follow a comprehensive peace in the region and should address weapons of mass destruction programs in addition to nuclear weapons.
"We believe that this is a very worthy goal, something that we have supported since 1995," Ms. Tauscher said. "But we are concerned that the conditions are not right. And unless all members of the region participate, which would be unlikely unless there is a comprehensive peace plan that is being accepted and worked on, then you couldn't have the conference that would achieve what we are all looking to achieve, which is for the region to make its own decisions and come together and find a way to do that."
Ms. Tauscher's position is substantively no different from the secret Israeli strategic doctrine known as the "long corridor," which establishes conditions — such as peace agreements with its neighbors — for Israel to relinquish its nuclear weapons.
The official Israeli statement, for example, from the International Atomic Energy Agency conference in September endorsed the long-term goal of a nuclear-free Middle East.
It also said, "in our view, progress towards realizing this vision cannot be made without a fundamental change in regional circumstances, including a significant transformation in the attitude of states in the region towards Israel."
An Israeli official said Sunday: "We haven't changed our policy. We are in favor of and support a nuclear-free Middle East. We believe this should be a culmination of a process and not the beginning of a process, this is a process that includes individual and bilateral peace agreements."
At last year's U.N. General Assembly, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he sought and received assurances from President Obama on a series of strategic understandings between the two countries. The Washington Times first reported last year that one of those reassurances was the Meir-Nixon understanding.
Over the weekend, U.S. officials tried to lower expectations that Egypt would modify its proposal for a nuclear-free Middle East. "We are still in the early stages of negotiations," a senior White House official said.
One possible compromise would be for the United States to accept naming an envoy or coordinator for a regional conference on seeking a Middle East that is free of weapons of mass destruction.
"It appears that the various key players could reach agreement in principle to name a special envoy and to call upon states in the region to meet to discuss the issue," said Daryl Kimball, executive director of the Arms Control Association. "This is a helpful, country-neutral way to deal with the Iranian issue and Israel's controversial nuclear program."
David Albright, president of the Institute for Science and International Security, said a deal with the Egyptians is within reach.
"The key is for the U.S. administration to quietly let the Egyptians know that at the presidential and vice-presidential level, the United States takes the issue of a WMD-free zone in the Middle East seriously."
On April 13, Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. met with Egyptian Foreign Minister Ahmed Aboul Gheit and other foreign ministers during the summit on uncontrolled nuclear material.
A senior administration official said, "At the lunch, they discussed the NPT and how to strengthen it."
