The hotel rooms, decorations, amenities, and staff were excellent.
The hotel needs major renovations; phone lines, lights, and wall structure are in need of repair.
Parking attendants and Front Desk staff are the best
The room, view from room, pool, restaurant, etc.
They didn't tell us when we booked the hotel that they are doing a major renovation to the exterior of the hotel, causing considerable noise and preventing the use of the balcony. This should have been disclosed, and/or they should have discounted the room rate.
We went for business/leisure for 5 days. The staff was very helpful and amiable. The location is outstanding. The room was very clean with an excellent view. It could be a little bit bigger but it had all we needed.
The room was somewhat small.
Great location, nice staff.great price and functional
TV was not working, older conversion of condos it seems, parking was very expensive $24 a night.
The beds were terrible. Mattress hard and noisy. Sofa bed mattress was paper thin.
We love the history, the architecture and the location. We looked forward to this our entire lives!
The overall experience was not good. There were no good options for casual dining. Just poolside, with a very limited menu and LOTS of cigar smoke OR the golf club, totally undesirable very man club-ish. We ended up ordering a very pricey pizza and very mediocre Caesar salad in the room. Forget a glass of wine for room service, it was $19.There was grime in the shower exhaust fan and mold on the ceiling shower. ewwww! Some of the property was in disrepair.
This is probably the most beautiful hotel I've ever stayed in, with European elegance at a reasonable price. We had a delicious meal at the "Fontana" restaurant, and the hotel staff was generally excellent. It is the architectural centerpiece of the Coral Gables neighborhood, and within a short drive of "Miracle Mile" shopping. Oh, and self-parking is free!
The room was a bit small, but the view was worth it!
The staff is amazingly! The hotel is so clean and beautiful
the construction and the view
loved the staff!
Construction. The Mattress were good, just not my preference.
The front desk staff is great.
Stayed here numerous times. Always across the board first rate.
Front desk was friendly. Room was clean, coffee in the room was good, great bay view and I didn't get out much but the location seemed perfect to me!
How the snack bar was out in the open tempting you but all of it was for a fee, it should be locked up unless I request for it to be opened. Can't imagine what parents with children go through to keep them from munching.
Restaurant service has to improve
We've stayed in other Sofitels before and this one didn't seem like one; the room definitely didn't live up to the brand. It didn't even live up to some of the lower-market Accor brands either. We were very disappointed.
Towels were unwashed; they smelled like they were new from the manufacturer (not even washed for the first time).
Carpet looked old. Room didn't seem upmarket at all and needs updating. Bathroom smelled like smoke in a non-smoking room.
Front desk either initiated or failed to stop another hold on our credit card, beyond the normal hold for incidentals, the day we checked out no less (and we checked-out several hours before normal check-out). This was not a problem per se, but it was still an annoyance, especially considering that hotel seemed sub-par in other ways.
In summary, the room was not horrible; it just wasn't a Sofitel. It was the equivalent of an average hotel, not even above average.
The room the view the staff the gym I love it
The food too expensive
The hotel and atmosphere were great. The best service were the bell hop and the valet service.
Untrained staff, in particular the service in the restaurant was poor! Front desk gave conflicting information are not clear when asking about restaurants.
Loved this hotel. The concierge Jorge Rocha was so helpful, he gave us GREAT customer service. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Miami.
rooms were nice, comfortable, location was good for what we were doing
Found what appeared to be a pubic hair in our room service food. We did not eat the food and would not eat in the restaurant.
We both stepped on glass shards while sitting at the pool. We brought it to the attention of the spa staff who shrugged it off..
The service was amazing. Everyone from the front desk to the valet to the gift shop clerk were all about service.
Here's why:
We're not the seller
At KAYAK we don't set prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We aggregate tons of data for you
Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we don't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find on occasion that certain prices are no longer available.
More questions or if you have a bad price to report to us
Please send us an
and someone from our team will get back to you promptly.

Under SB 5119, the authority for nonprofit corporations to join a self-insurance program with other nonprofit corporations was removed from chapter 48.62 RCW and placed in its own chapter to clarify that nonprofit corporations and local governments are separate and cannot commingle for the purposes of creating insurance risk pools. In addition, nonprofit corporations are authorized to enter into joint self-insurance programs with similar entities from other states, subject to specified conditions.
Because of these changes to state law, changes are necessary to current Risk Management rules under Title 200 WAC.
Notification Start of Rule Making
Rule Making Approach
Rule Making Docket
Chapter 200-240 governs where flags may be displayed on the state Capitol Campus and who may allow flags other than the United States flag and the Washington State flags to be flown.
Rules were first adopted in 1976 and are no longer in alignment with current law and practice. This update is needed to clarify that other flags may be flown and to clarify that the borders of the state capitol campus are those designated by the state capitol committee.
Rule Making Docket
The former Department of General Administration was eliminated in 2011 with the formation of the Department of Enterprise Services. In addition, changes have been made to RCW 41.06.142 Competitive Contracting since the competitive contracting bid process rules were adopted. Because of this, DES will be updating the rules to align with the current statutes.
In addition, DES will consider aligning where feasible, parts of the competitive bidding processes under RCW 41.06.142 with similar statewide contracting processes enacted under Procurement Reform (chapter 39.26 RCW)
Under HB 2452 (2012), commonly known as Procurement Reform, RCW 43.19.185 was repealed. RCW 43.19.185 mandated the development of credit card systems and rules relating to the use of credit cards by state agencies and departments.
While the development of credit card policies and standards are required under HB 2452, credit card rules are no longer required.
In addition, fully developed and operational credit card systems, controls and policies are in place and widely used and followed by state agencies and departments.
Because of this, chapter 200-370 is no longer relevant.
This rule making activity is needed to put requirements and guidance in place for state agencies to use in managing their printing operations. Print operations includes agency-based printing and print jobs that require the services of a print shop.
In addition, rules are needed to implement managed print strategies to track, manage, and reduce agency-based printing.
DES has revisited the proposed rule and guidelines and determined significant changes are needed. DES will hold a series of work sessions with stakeholders to identify successful strategies to include in the rule and guideline and determine if other changes are needed.

Start of rule makingCR-101 Preproposal Statement of Inquiry – WSR 13-03-115 (PDF) filed with the Office of the Code Reviser.
This rule making activity is necessary to align state personnel training rules with current circumstances and to correct errors.
WAC 200-600-030 requires agencies to report to the department of enterprise services their compliance with sexual harassment awareness and prevention training requirements under WAC 357-34-100 and 357-34-105. WAC 200-600-030 rule is no longer needed because a system is in place that automatically captures relevant state agency training information and is capable of providing reports sufficient to comply with the requirements. This system is known as the Learning Management System (LMS) and is managed by DES.
Under HB 2452 (2012), laws relating to the procurement of goods and services were reorganized and recodified into a new chapter in Title 39 RCW. The processes for procurement of personal services contracts, or services, were combined with the processes for procurement of goods.
As a direct result of the passage of HB 2452, sections of chapters 200-300 and 200-310 are invalid or are no longer relevant. This rule change consolidates and aligns the remaining sections with current law and statewide procurement policy.

Different types of mint plants include peppermint, spearmint and apple mint. Other types of mint are lemon mint and chocolate mint. Catmint is not a true mint as it's in the species Nepeta instead of Mentha, but it is used as a mint.Know More
Spearmint is native to the Mediterranean and was given as a symbol of hospitality and wisdom. The Romans brought the plant to their colonies in Britain, and English colonials brought the plant to North America. Spearmint gets its classically minty aroma from carvone, a volatile oil.
Mints interbreed easily with one another, and many types of mint are actually hybrids of peppermint, even as peppermint is a hybrid of spearmint and watermint. Peppermint has been known since the mid-18th century and has an unmistakable fragrance and taste. It's favored in cooking and is used medicinally. It is taken in various forms to ease the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome, nausea, vomiting and excess mucous.
Apple mint isn't a hybrid of peppermint, but is prized for its delicious apple smell. It has large, round, woolly leaves. Lemon mint has a refreshing citrus smell, and chocolate mint smells like chocolate.
Mint plants grow well in full sun or partial shade, though they do best in fertile soil that is moist but well-drained.Learn more about Botany

An Islamic "Veil" - Exclusive Look At Louvre's First Addition Since Glass Pyramid
The "veil," a work from an Italian-French team, is the first new major architectural addition to the Louvre since the famed pyramid entrance of I.M. Pei opened. It will cover three floors and 4,600 square meters of new exhibition space devoted to Islamic Art.
PARIS - ōFinally, we lift the veil,ö says Milanese architect Mario Bellini.
The eight-time winner of the Compasso dÆOro industrial design award, together with his French colleague Rudy Ricciotti, are the creators of the most important addition to the Louvre since I.M. PeiÆs pyramid opened more than two decades ago.
The work is a ōveilö indeed, sinuous, wavy and very light, covering the Cour Visconti of the worldÆs most famous museum. It will cover three floors and 4,600 square meters of new exhibition space.
All of this will hold the fabulous Islamic Art collection that until now has been confined to a few tight rooms. And for the occasion, the Islamic Art section became a department of the museum.
The project has been carried out with impressive haste. Ten years have passed since French President Jacques Chirac decided to expand the Louvre. The public competition was announced in 2004, and Bellini & Ricciotti were announced as the winners the following year.
The duo had the satisfaction of beating a star like Baghdad-born, British-based architect Zaha Hadid. ōWith all the affection that I have for her, because I am a friend of ZahaÆs, it has been very satisfying,ö says Bellini.
The first stone on the new wing was laid in the summer of 2008, and now construction is nearly complete. By next month, the showcases will be ready, and by later this spring some 3,000 (out of a total collection of 13,000) works of art will be permanently displayed. The inauguration is slated for this summer.
From an architectural point of view, the fundamental challenge was to find a way to have the new contemporary structure coexist with the 19th century facades of the Visconti court. BelliniÆs solution is this light and transparent structure that seems to be floating in the air, and allows everyone to see and to be seen from the other parts of the museum.
When Bellini talks about ōhisö veil he becomes almost lyrical: ōYou can see as if you were looking through the wing of a dragonfly.ö More simply put, everything has been studied at length to obtain enough light for a proper view of the artworks, but not too much to risk ruining them.
The rest of it, a second and a third floor for the facilities, is underground. And here the architects had an important technical challenge: having to lower the foundation with the banks of the Seine so close.
"Almost gastronomical..."
Still, the overall impression that you get while walking through the still very active construction site -- full of dust, noise and workers ¢ is one of great lightness. This goes for the ōfoulardö that covers the garden (and weights 135 tons), and even for the glass walls.
The other half of the team, Ricciotti, has an exuberant personality, referring to the elaborate construction as ōalmost gastronomicalö, claiming that it ōstrikes minimalism like an axe.ö
For certain, the costs were not minimal: 98.5 million euros, with the French state pitching in 31 million (and the Louvre a half-million). The rest comes from 30 private patrons and from other states, 26 in total. And indeed, they are 10 million short, and Louvre director Henri Loyrette is busy searching for the remaining funds.
The list of donors is politically rather interesting. The most generous private donor (17 million euros) is the foundation of prince Alwaleed Bin Talal Bin Abdulaziz Alsaud, from the Saudi royal family. The states that have contributed are Morocco, Kuwait, Oman and Azerbaijan, part of the moderate face of Islam.
Inevitably this artistic operation is going to be read also as a political act, especially in this moment when the Islamic world generates both hopeful springs and looming concerns. Loyrette explains that in the new space of his museum, ōthe luminous face of a civilizationö will be on display.
As a matter of fact, one of the most beautiful and famous works that is going to shine under the veil is the ōBaptistery of Saint Louis,ö an Egyptian or Syrian basin from the 14th century, made of gold and silver-plated copper. Undoubtedly of Islamic origin, it was also the font that was used, since the Middle Ages, generation after generation, for the baptism of the French kingÆs sons.

here, so we are clear...when I read this your lack of compassion jumped straight out and slapped me in the face...instead of facing it head on, I walked away...don't feel right about it, and it's why this post...
now, I do feel better...

If you felt a "slap in the face" it was not my intent. That probably had more to do with your gut feelings not matching other things you're basing your judgements of me personally on...
I'm glad you FEEL better...but you completely missed the point of that post if you STILL can't grasp any of this.
Maybe I can't express myself in the way you will ever need in order to understand me but it's not for lack of trying on my part. There's no "grudge".
There is a lot of communication that goes on in this group that is NOT centered here on glp. An invitation of sorts went out into the non material and some people are responding so I know it's not all BS.
So some people get that and identify it and are fine with it and some people naturally pick up on it and some feel something is there but aren't quite able to pick it up yet but its not fantasy what is going on...it's palpable.
I'm no master of this and I doubt anyone else is but it's worth me taking a couple ass kickings over it to find out for sure.

'ilnited States Patent Luttrell et al.
Sept. 9, 1975 ROCKET-PROPELLED CLUSTER WEAPON Primary Exam'inerVerlin R. Pendegrass Attorney, Agent, or FirmR. S. Sciascia; J. A. Cooke 57 ABSTRACT A warhead for an aerial missile containing a plurality of submissiles. The warhead is provided with an inertia responsive mass which in response to acceleration forces overcomes the forward urging of spring to maintain a pair of normally outwardly urged detents seated in the annular groove on a centrally disposed axial shaft thereby to maintain the slideable warhead nose forwardly urged to seal the warhead against admission of ram air pressure into the warhead cavity. Upon deceleration, the spring urges the inertia mass forwardly enabling the detents to unseat and the warhead nose to slide rearwardly thereby permitting admission of ram air pressure into the warhead cavity which affects rupture of the warhead fairing and release of the submissiles along an intercept path to the target.
12 Claims, 1 Drawing Figure PATENTEDSEP :915
John L. Luhrell William E. Preston William 8. Richardson INVENTORS.
MN Wm ATTORNEYS.
ROCKET-PROPELLED CLUSTER WEAPON The invention described herein may be manufactured and used by or for the Government of the United States of America for governmental purposes without the payment of any royalties thereon or therefor.
The present invention relates to warheads and more particularly to a warhead for a rocket or missile containing a cluster of submissiles which are released from the warhead at the time of burnout of the rocket propellant for impact with the target.
It has long been the practice to employ multiparticle warheads for projectiles or rockets, the particles being formed by fragmentation of the warhead casing upon the detonation of an explosive charge within the warhead. Although such warheads work satisfactorily under most conditions, the full potential of the warhead is not utilized because the size of the particles produced by the fragmentation of the warhead is unpredictable and is at best difficult to control by scoring of the warhead casing. In the conventional warheads, the fragments from the warhead casing produced upon detonation of the explosive charge are usually projected in all directions in a random manner, thus producing the situation that the particular particles which hit the target may strike the target at a tangential angle and therefore do not inflict their full damage upon the target.
The general purpose of this invention is to provide a warhead for a rocket which embraces all of the advantages of similarly employed warheads and possesses none of the aforedescribed disadvantages. To attain this objective, the warhead of the present invention contains a cluster of submissiles having flight stabilizing fins thereon and being positioned within a warhead fairing which is caused to open upon the burnout of the rocket propellant whereby the rocket and fairing decelerate and permit the submissiles to continue their travel toward the target at hypervelocity speeds. Upon release from the fairing, the flight stabilized submissiles travel in an intercept path with the target along slightly diverging paths to produce a shotgun-like pattern to as sure impact with the target by one or more of the submissiles at an angle substantially normal to the target, thus enabling the submissile to inflict its maximum destructive capability.
It is an object of this invention to provide a simple and reliable yet highly effective weapon for projecting a plurality of inert projectiles at a target.
Another object of the invention is to provide a warhead for launching a cluster of projectiles along an intercept path with a target at hypervelocity speeds.
Another object of the invention is to provide a rocket warhead for releasing a cluster of projectiles in such a manner that each of the projectiles takes an intercept path with a target.
Other objects and many of the attendant advantages of this invention will be readily appreciated as the same becomes better understood by reference to the following detailed description when considered in connection with the accompanying drawing wherein:
The FIGURE shows a longitudinal view of the weapon with the warhead of the weapon shown in section.
Referring now to the drawing, there is shown a warhead adapted to be attached to the forward portion of a rocket 11 by any suitable means, the details of the rocket not being significant for the purposes of this invention since the warhead may be delivered by any one of a plurality of conventional rockets. The body of the warhead is defined by a substantially frusto-conical fairing 12 having an axial bore 13 extending therethrough to receive the nose element for triggering the cluster release system. The fairing is further provided with a counterbore 14 to define a chamber for receiving a cluster of inert submissiles 15. Each of the submissiles is formed from an inert high density material and is provided with an elongated configuration having a low aerodynamic drag and being provided with fins 16 on the tail portion thereof to stabilize the flight of the submissile during its travel toward the target upon release from the warhead. The submissiles are packed in annular cluster around an annular submissile support block 17 which is secured to a axial shaft 18 mounted upon a support base 19. The support base 19 is secured to the forward portion of a rocket motor casing 11 by any suitable means and has formed therein slots 21 to receive the tail fins 16 of the submissiles to hold the submissiles in their stacked array.
The warhead is so constructed as to release the cluster of submissiles 15 upon sensing the condition of deceleration caused by burnout of the rocket propellant. The interior of the warhead is provided with an enlarged inner diameter portion 22 to define a cavity to receive ramair pressure after the rocket propellant has been consumed. The warhead fairing is so constructed as to be torn apart by the entrance of ram air pressure into the cavity 22 in such a manner as to provide an uninterrupted path for the submissiles as the fairing and rocket motor further decelerate and the submissiles are permitted to continue on their path toward their target. To permit an easy and effective separation for removal of the fairing assembly, the fairing is constructed of a thin metallic skin and is packed with a lightweight rigid filler material to give it regidity and strength, the metallic skin of the fairing being provided with a plurality of grooves extending from the apex to the base of the frusto-conical fairing to provide weakened portions in the fairing skin. Upon entrance of the ram air pressure into the cavity 22, the ram air pressure acts upon the tapered cavity wall 24 to produce forces on the fairing in a radially outwardly direction, thus causing the fairing to tear along the weakened grooves formed in the fairing skin and consequently be removed from its obstructing position in the path of the submissiles. Entrance of ram air pressure into the cavity 22 is pre vented prior to propellant burnout by means of a cluster release assembly 23 which seals the entrance to the cavity and is withdrawn from its sealing position upon the deceleration of the warhead.
The cluster release assembly 23 has a cylindrical body portion having a diameter substantially equal to the inner diameter of the entrance to the apex of the frusto-conical fairing. The cluster release assembly is provided with a hemispherical end portion 25 which, when the cluster release assembly is in its sealing position, provides the fairing with a continuous smooth aerodynamic surface at the forward end thereof. The cluster release assembly is mounted upon a shaft 26 which is connected to the base 19 by the axial shaft 18. The cluster release assembly is adapted to be moved by ram air pressure acting upon the hemispherical surface 25 from its sealing position shown in the drawing to an open position rearwardly along shaft 26. The release assembly is locked in the position shown by means of a pair of spring fingers 27 having detents 28 integrally formed on the ends thereof, the detents 28 being received within an annular recess 29 formed in the shaft 26. The spring fingers 27 are resiliently baised outwardly out of locking engagement with the annular recess 29 but are held in the locked position by means of a peripheral engagement with a cylindrical inertial weight 31. The inertial Weight is mounted upon the shaft 26 for longitudinal sliding movement thereon and is resiliently baised in a forward direction for contact with a stop plate 32 by means of a helical compression spring 33 positioned within the cylindrical release assembly. The inertial weight is held in the position shown by means of a shear pin 34 positioned within and extending through complimentary apertures formed in the inertial weight and the shaft 26. When the cluster release assembly is in its sealing position shown in the FIGURE, an annular flange 35 mounted upon the release assembly 23 and spaced therefrom is in locking engagement with an inwardly directed reentrant flange 36 formed at the apex of the frusto-conical fairing.
In operation, the rocket l l is aimed at the target and ignited, the setback forces of acceleration act upon the inertial weight 31 to sever the shear pin 34 and permit the inertial weight to fully compress the helical spring 33. During the acceleration of the rocket throughout the burning time of the rocket propellant, the inertial weight holds the helical spring 33 in its fully compressed condition and continues to lock the detents 28 within the annular recess 29 to maintain the cluster release mechanism 23 in its locked sealing position. Upon the consumption of the rocket fuel, the rocket begins to decelerate, thus causing the inertial weight 31 to move forward under the force of deceleration and as assisted by the compression spring 33 so that the inertial weight reaches an abutting contact with the stop plate 32. When the inertial weight is in this position, the locking detents 28 on the spring fingers 27 are permitted to be urged radially outwardly out of engagement with the annular recess 29 in the shaft thereby freeing the cluster. release mechanism 23 for longitudinal movement along the shaft 26. The ram air pressure acting upon the hemispherical end portion 25 of the cluster release assembly forces the cluster release assembly 23 into abutment with annular wall 37 formed on the shaft 26. The cylindrical cluster release mechanism having been moved into contact with wall 37, the locking engagement of annular flanges 35 and 36 is uncoupled and the ram air pressure is permitted to enter the cavity 22. As the ram air pressure acts upon the tapered cavity wall 24, moments of force are developed perpendicular to the axis of the warhead to tear the fairing 12 along its weakened groove portions and remove the fairing from the warhead, thus further decelerating the rocket motor and warhead and permitting the cluster of submissles 15 to continue forwardly along an intercept path toward the target. The aerodynamic pressure acting upon the cluster of submissiles causes the submissiles to be deployed in a shotgun-like pattern while the fins 16 on the tail sections of the submissiles maintain the submissiles in a trajectory substantially identical to that of the trajectory of the warhead prior to burnout of the rocket propellant.
The warhead of this invention is adapted for use with any suitable rocket motor and it has been found that known rocket motors will accelerate the warhead through a velocity of 7,000 to 8,000 feet per second during the propellant burning time of approximately 1 second. By constructing the submissiles of a high density material such as tungsten or depleted uranium and by shaping the submissiles to have a length to diameter ratio of about 5 to l, the submissiles will continue on their intercept paths to the target at an initial velocity of about 8,000 feet per second upon release from the warhead and, due to their low aerodynamic drag, will have very high kinetic energy and momentum upon impact with the target. Upon striking a target, hypervelocity projectiles do not simply perforate the target, but fragment explosively, thus greatly amplifying the destructive effects of the projectiles. The launching rocket motor may be an unguided rocket, thus reducing the expense and eliminating the intricacies of the guidance control system, while the design of the warhead enables the submissiles to intercept the target at angles substantially normal to the target and also maximizes the kinetic energy and momentum of the submissiles to thereby provide a weapon having high destructive capability. When the weapon is used against ground personnel the warhead may be provided with a larger number of submissiles of smaller size than when the weapon is used against material or aerial targets. It is apparent therefore that the present invention provides an inexpensive weapon which is simple in construction and yet very reliable and having a high destructive capability.
Obviously many modifications and variations of the present invention are possible in light of the above teachings. It is therefore to be understood, that within the scope of the appended claims, the invention may be practiced otherwise than as specifically described.
What is claimed is:
1. A missile warhead comprising a frusto-conical warhead fairing having an axial bore extending therethrough,
a base plate adapted to be mounted upon a missle and having the base of the frusto-conical fairing secured thereto, said plate closing one end of said axial bore,
a support shaft mounted upon said base plate and extending into said axial bore,
said fairing having a counterbore formed therein adjacent said base plate,
a plurality of submissiles positioned within said counterbore,
said fairing having an internal cavity formed therein adjacent the open end of said axial bore and being in fluid communication with said axial bore, the diameter of said cavity being greater than the diameter of said bore,
submissile release assembly slideably mounted upon said shaft for movement from a first position wherein said assembly prevents air flow into the cavity to a second position wherein said assembly permits air to fiow into said cavity, and means for locking said release assembly in said first position and for unlocking said release assembly in response to deceleration of the warhead for movement to said second position,
whereby ram air pressure about the warhead may enter the cavity upon deceleration of the warhead occurring at the termination of thrust by a warhead propelling motor to tear away the fairing and release the submissiles for a ballistic trajectory toward a target.
2. The warhead of claim 1 wherein said plurality of submissiles are packed in an annular cluster having an inner diameter greater than the diameter of said axial bore.
3. The warhead of claim 2 wherein said submissiles are constructed of an inert high density material.
4. The warhead of claim 3 wherein said submissiles have a pointed nose portion and an elongated body portion and have fins mounted thereon to stabilize the ballistic flight of the submissiles.
5. The warhead of claim 1 wherein said fairing is constructed of a material which, when subjected to ram air pressure within said cavity, will tear apart and open the fairing for release of the submissiles.
6. The warhead of claim 1 wherein said fairing comprises an annular body having spaced apart walls of thin metallic material,
a mass of lightweight filler material positioned within and filling the space between said walls.
7. The warhead of claim 6 wherein said walls have stress concentrating grooves formed therein and extending from the apex of the fairing to the base of the fairing.
8. The warhead of claim 1 wherein said submissile release assembly comprises a hollow cylindrical housing coaxially mounted upon said shaft for sliding movement thereon,
said cylindrical housing having a hemispherical end portion formed thereon,
whereby when said submissile release assembly is in said first position, the hemispherical end portion provides the fairing with a smooth aerodynamic surface.
9. The warhead of claim 8 further comprising a re-entrant annular flange formed on said fairing adjacent said axial bore at the apex end of said fairing, and
an annular flange formed on the outer peripheral surface of said housing and releasably interlocking said re-entrant flange when said housing is in said first position.
10. The warhead of claim 8 wherein said means for locking said submissile release assembly comprises an annular inertial weight coaxially mounted upon said shaft and being positioned within said cylindrical housing,
a spring for resiliently biasing said weight toward the apex of said fairing,
at least one locking detect mounted upon said housing for locking engagement with a groove formed in said shaft,
a shear pin for releasably holding said weight in a locking position wherein said detents are engaged by said weight and held in locking engagement with the groove in said shaft,
whereby acceleration of the warhead by a propelling motor will sever the shear pin to permit the resilient biasing spring to move the weight toward the apex of the fairing after termination of thrust by the propelling motor, thus permitting the detent to be disengaged from the groove in said shaft to free said housing for movement along the shaft and thereby permit ram air pressure to enter said cavity and remove said fairing and release submissiles.
11. A missile warhead comprising a tapered fairing having an opening at its apex and an internal cavity formed therein a plurality of submissiles positioned within said cavan elongate shaft axially secured within said fairing and having a groove formed therein,
an assembly slideably mounted on said shaft and having an end portion of substantially the same size as said fairing opening and at least one resiliently urged detent,
an inertia mass slideably mounted on said shaft,
resilient means normally urging said mass in a forwardly direction,
said mass moving rearwardly on said shaft in response to acceleration forces to effect seating of said detent in said groove for securing said end portion in sealing engagement with said opening thereby preventing admission of ram air pressure into said cavity, said mass being urged forwardly by said resilient means in response to deceleration forces to effect unseating of said detent and release of said assembly for rearward movement thereby unsecuring said end portion from sealing engagement with said opening and enabling admission of ram air pressure into said cavity for rupturing of said fairing and release of said submissiles.
12. A missile warhead according to claim 11 and including means for maintaining said inertia mass in an initial position on said shaft and for affecting release of said mass for movement in response to a shearing force. l

Here is a Video of Spellborn. The Servers are empty at all Time. When i play i meet every Day the same People. This is nice, but not good for a MMORPG. PVP is boring, because there is noone to kill. The Publisher pushed more Runes of Magic than Spellborn. Some Quests are buggy - cant finish them. And i dont want pay for a Beta so i dont play Spellborn after the Free Month. The Idea is good but all other is bad. Spellborn can be a nice MMORPG but i thins the Interesting of the People is too low for this Game. :-( Nice Try, Spellborn Team. More at www.hornedsdungeon.org

Er...Okami HD? About as scary as a rabbit but I've had the game for months and need to finish it.
I'm thinking I might replay Silent Hill Downpour this year. Not sure yet.
I do not celebrate Halloween.
why no celebrate
It is not my thing.
I'm guessing I will play through the original Dead Space once I get done with Dragon Crown. Dead Space played in the dark, with surround, and headphones seems to be my traditional Halloween game.
Resident Evil Remake (Gamecube)
Why the hell is Capcom still not DOING anything with that game? They are in such a dire financial situation, and they have easy money staring them right in the face with that one. Get it in HD, and get it up for download on all three consoles AND on Steam. Bam, easy money.
@Randolph: Agreed. That was the one HD collection I wanted (coupled with Zero) on PS3. I got none. *sad face*
Luckily, I kept my Gamecube version and my Wii plays Gamecube games.
Resident Evil Code: Veronica. The setting and gameplay are just brilliant survival horror.
I think I might just pull out the ole' GameCube, and play Metroid 2 Prime Echos. That game had some sweaty palmed moments that stressed me out, to me it's scarier and faster paced than most Zombie games. Anyone?
Puppeteer. The game is deliciously insane.
Yea it is. What were they smoking.....
Myself, I haven't played RE4 in a year or so and it fits the mood, so yea.....
Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare has been my go to the last couple of years.
I usually play through the week up to Halloween, as I usually spend the actual night getting hammered while in a silly costume.
Dante's Inferno.
If your username was a game, it would be that one!
I don't celebrate Halloween and neither do I have a game for the event, but thanks to Steam's current sale, I'm playing Typing of the Dead: Overkill.
Only thing scary is how campy the game is. I'm enjoying it a lot though.
Ok that's fair enough.

Press release from Marketwire
Truck Agreement Signed for the Kaunisvaara Project
Thursday, September 06, 2012
Truck Agreement Signed for the Kaunisvaara Project00:38 EDT Thursday, September 06, 2012LUXEMBOURG, LUXEMBOURG--(Marketwire - Sept. 6, 2012) -Northland Resources S.A. (TSX:NAU)(FRANKFURT:NPK)(OSLO:NAUR) ("Northland" or the "Company") announces that its contractor, Peab, has entered into a SEK 1.5 billion agreement with Scania Group ("Scania") for the purchase of 400 truck-and-trailer combinations and services during a nine-year period. The rigs are optimised for gross weights of up to 90 tonnes.Northland Resources is forecast to start production of high-grade iron ore concentrate in the fourth quarter of 2012, and to start shipping the product to its customers in early 2013. Peab, through its subsidiary Swerock, will be responsible for trucking Northland Resources' iron ore product 150 km from the mine site in Kaunisvaara to Pitkäjärvi, where the product will be reloaded on rail wagons for further transportation to the deep- water and ice-free port in Narvik, Norway. "This agreement between Scania and Swerock is very important for the success of our iron ore project in Kaunisvaara," said Willy Sundling, Project Manager - Logistics at Northland Resources. "We can now rest assured that the deliverance of our high-quality product will commence as planned in the first quarter of next year." The agreement will commence in late 2012 and be effective until 2021. Besides delivering the truck combinations, Scania will be responsible for driver training and coaching, vehicle monitoring, maintenance, repairs, service and supplies. Scania has also agreed to meet Northland Resources' requirement to continually reduce the cost per tonne transported during the nine year period.
