By Staff Sgt. Richard SherbaMay 22, 2013
SCHOFIELD BARRACKS, Hawaii -- A loud bang disrupts a tranquil sunny morning in a training field located at Schofield Barracks.
"Help!" "Hurry!" "They went that way!" "I'm sick!" "There's another bomb," was simultaneously heard screamed by more than 60 role-playing victims running from the explosion; while others fell down succumbing to their fake injuries.
Chaos, right? Not for the Soldiers of the 8th Military Police Brigade, 8th Theater Sustainment Command.
In a display like none other, the 8th MP Bde. mobilized its diverse array of elements and assets in a Consequence Management Exercise held April 24 -25.
MPs from the 728th Military Police Battalion, 8th MP Bde. were first on scene assessing the situation, securing the area and calling for additional assets.
Within minutes help was en route.
In were called Soldiers from the Special Reaction Team, 728th MP Bn. to search for and capture the role-playing suspects; EOD Soldiers from the 303rd Ordnance Battalion to diffuse a second bomb; firefighters from the Federal Fire Department to evacuate, triage, and identify hazardous materials; and Soldiers from the 71st Chemical Company to decontaminate the role-playing victims as well as conduct reconnaissance of contaminated sites and package any evidence found for law enforcement investigations.
"This training exercise is designed to conduct incident command from an all-hazards approach; training and certifying various first response forces," said Col. Mark A. Jackson, commander, 8th MP Bde. "It allows leaders to transition incident command from one scenario to the next including law enforcement, EOD, Federal Fire and 71st Chemical Company's CBRN response."
Brig. Gen. Peggy C. Combs, 27th Chief of Chemical and Commandant of the U.S. Army Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear School spent several days visiting with the 71st Chem. Co. and witnessed the fast paced and intense training exercise first hand.
"Well done by the exercise planners, well done by everyone here operating in an all hazards approach," she said. "I'm thrilled to see the all-hazards approach, that's where we're going with our CBRN forces. The partnership between MP, EOD and Chemical is going to be an enduring partnership and any time we can exercise that interoperability makes us better as an Army."
The two-day training event allowed for the diverse units involved to train and be evaluated on their unique skill sets; with one end result being the recertification of the 71st Chem. Co. on unit equipment and the ability of 71st Chem. Co. to perform its mission.
"The last two days of training is considered certification for our company, its basically certifying us to be readily available for deployment," said Sgt. Nichelle Bishop, 71st Chem. Co.
Bishop then commented on Combs' presence during the week.
"She [Combs] got me fired up and said we're [Chemical Soldiers] not just an elite group by name, but because of what we do, how we train, and what we're trained on," said Bishop. "She also motivated us by letting us know we're doing something that people may not think is important, but it's so important given the world we live in. We are very needed at this time."
As diverse and demanding as the training was, so was the weather. Day one brought heavy down pours, while day two brought high temperatures, humidity and the sun.
"It [weather] didn't matter," said Sgt. 1st Class Hans Drupiewski, Platoon Sergeant, 2nd Platoon, 71st Chem. Co. "Our [71st Chem. Co.] set up time from yesterday in the pouring rain, with mud everywhere, was identical to the set up time today in nice sunny weather with no mud. They [Soldiers] did great as a team, they were motivated, they came together and they accomplished the mission no matter the elements."
After the last simulated patient had been treated and Soldiers were allotted the opportunity to pause and catch their breath, Bishop took the time to reflect on the past two days of training and all the different elements involved working together during the exercise.
"It was a good collaboration," she said. "That's what the Army does, and that's what we [Army] do best. Having everyone and everything come together, it was awesome. I could do this again and again and again, I love my job."
The brigade commander also spoke about the exercise and his Soldiers performance.
"These Soldiers and leaders performed magnificently," said Jackson. "This exercise certified the 71st Chem. Co. as well as the 728th MP Bn.'s Special Reaction Team. We have conducted certification exercises for 71st Chem., SRT, and other MP units in the past, but this was the first time in recent memory that we have planned and executed certification from an all-hazards perspective that also exercised our incident command systems and processes across multiple echelons and a wide variety of first responders."

Filed Under Abortion, Announcements | 5 Comments
To all you moms out there, including my own, not to mention the mother of my four great kids, thanks for all you've done, are doing and will do.

And with that in mind…

A little more information
Popular Questions
What are your opening hours?
Monday - Thursday : 9am to 6pm
Friday : 9am to 5:30pm
Saturday - Sunday : 9:30am to 4:30pm
Can I talk to a specialist in person?
Yes! We welcome the opportunity to speak to our clients face to face. To book an appointment, click here.
What is a destination specialist?
Our specialists provide a unique holiday-planning service. Each specialist is focused on a specific destination so you get the benefit of their knowledge and experience.
Our specialists travel extensively to their destinations - they speak from personal experience. You will have contact with the same specialist throughout the planning process.
Their enthusiasm for the destination will mean they can tailor your trip to your exact preferences. They can ensure you make the most of your time and budget during your trip.
Do I have to travel on certain dates?
Because all of our trips are tailor-made, you can depart on any date you wish (depending on flights) and for as long as you wish.
The itineraries provided on our website are suggestions only and you can change any aspect to suit your tastes and budget. Your destination specialist will be able to provide advice and answer your questions.
Will I be travelling as part of a group?
No, our tailor-made trips are arranged on an individual basis. This means you are not tied to the wishes of a group and can arrange your itinerary at your own pace.
If you are interested in a Group Tour, we do offer a range of departures in small groups of up to 16 people.
Isn't it easier and cheaper to arrange the holiday myself?
Many of our clients like the independence that tailor-made travel brings, without the 'regimentation' of organised group tours, but with the reassurance of our professional planning and back-up services. For example, if the flight that we've booked is delayed, it's down to us to re-arrange your travel in the country.
When things go wrong, an independent traveller may find themselves putting in a good deal of time re-organising their plans, when they should be enjoying the trip. We also regularly hear from travellers claiming that they can independently organise the same trip for a lower price. Almost invariably it is not 'like for like' and they may find they incur much more expense during their travels.
What financial protection do you offer?
We hold an Air Travel Organiser's Licence (ATOL number 4817) issued by the Civil Aviation Authority. When you buy an ATOL protected air inclusive holiday from us, in the unlikely event of our insolvency the CAA will ensure that you are not left stranded abroad and will arrange to refund any money you have paid to us for an advance booking.

Technique and condition
Painted on cotton duck, this painting has a traditional construction. The fabric is tacked to an expandable stretcher. It is sized then primed with white oil paint. The artist laid in a thin wash of crimson oil paint, then, when dry, using masking tape, marked out two crimson stripes, one to the far left and the other a thin strip on the right. Brown paint was brushed evenly over the crimson up to the tape and then clarified with a knife to form a crisp burred edge. The crimson stripe was deepened in a similar manner, by masking off the brown paint with tape. However, the tape did not stick well to the partially dry oil paint and red brush strokes escaped beneath the tape onto the brown, leaving a flickering edge. Taking more brown paint, the artist re-defined the edge by cancelling the renegade strokes.
One year later, Barnett Newman altered the composition by adding a central red stripe. In preparation, the brown paint was rubbed down, in some places down to the cotton canvas, now apparent only through slight differences in texture. A red stripe was painted on top using the same technique as before. The new stripe is slightly glossier than the rest of the painting which exhibits subtle differences in sheen across the surface.
The painting is unvarnished. Originally the edges were probably covered by pale brown tape. The painting is unframed.
The painting is in good condition. Careful handling helps to protect the delicate surface while the use of a storage frame enables the painting to be protected when not on display.

Marcos Maidana Powers Past Jesus Soto Karass in Eight
By Luis Sandoval
MGM Grand, Las Vegas - Welterweights Marcos "Chino" Maidana (32-3, 29KOs) and Jesus Soto Karass (26-8-3, 17KOs) wasted no time and went to war from the get go and put on a thrilling affair. Both fighters traded heavily and took turns landing hard flush shots as the crowd roared with each one. Maidana used his jab when he had to setting up some of his offense as he controlled the fight early on as it was Karass who was absorbing the punishment.
The tide however seemed to change around the 6th round as Maidana began to look a bit tired, and as it was Karass who was now applying pressure and backing the shorter Maidana up. In the 7th round, Maidana had a point deducted for hitting on the break one too many times. Seemingly in a hole, Maidana worked behind his jab and landed a monster right hand that dropped Karass. Karass would beat the count but in round 8, Maidana would once again pour it on by landing more thunderous right hands that had Karass hurt on the ropes and referee Kenny Bayless stepped in and put a halt to the fight. Great action from start to finish.
Maidana deserved to win that 100,000 dollar check he dug deep and got the knockout.Comment by Body Movin' on 09-16-2012
bayless robbed maidana from the 100 grand bounty but soto-karass' health comes first. kenny had a good look at him and had seen enough.Comment by jaded on 09-16-2012

Tilloy British Cemetery
Departement du Pas-de-Calais
Nord-Pas-de-Calais France
Tilloy British Cemetery:
First Name
Last Name
Cemetery notes and/or description:
Tilloy-lčs-Mofflaines is a village 3 kilometres south-east of Arras, on the south side of the main road to Cambrai. Tilloy British Cemetery is south-east of the village on the north-east side of the road to Wancourt, the D37.
Tilloy-lčs-Mofflaines was taken by Commonwealth troops on 9 April 1917, but it was partly in German hands again from March to August 1918. The cemetery was begun in April 1917 by fighting units and burial officers, and Rows A to H in Plot I largely represent burials from the battlefield. The remaining graves in Plot I, and others in the first three rows of Plot II, represent later fighting in 1917 and the first three months of 1918, and the clearing of the village in August 1918. These 390 original burials were increased after the Armistice when graves were brought in from a number of temporary battlefield cemeteries in a wide area east of Arras.
The cemetery now contains 1642 Commonwealth burials and commemorations of the First World War. 611 of the burials are unidentified, but there are special memorials to 14 casualties known or believed to be buried among them. Other special memorials commemorate 11 men of the 6th Battalion, King's Own Scottish Borderers buried in Tees Trench Cemetery No. 2, whose graves were destroyed by shell fire. The cemetery was designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens.

WELLINGTON, New Zealand - A couple with a combined age of 183 will tie the knot in New Zealand.
Jim Gorringe, 99, and Dinah Leach, 84, plan to wed Sunday at the St. James Rest Home in the southern city of Christchurch where they both live.
St. James' nurse manager Barbara Stanton said Thursday the home was trying to shield the couple from some of the intense public interest the wedding had generated.
"We're even fielding calls from the (United) States," asking whether they are "robust enough to fly over to appear on television," she said.
Gorringe has been married once before, while it will be Leach's third wedding. Great-great-grandchildren will be among the guests.
Both bride and groom emigrated to New Zealand from England years ago.

Theatre Unchained's 'Foreigner' a perfectly fitting Shue
Larry Shue's "The Foreigner" ostensibly involves a culture clash between a quirky Brit and southern bigots in a Georgian fishing lodge, where Charlie morphs from pathologically shy English nebbish into improbable hero.
But while watching the enjoyable "Foreigner," being staged by Theatre Unchained under John Baiocchi's direction, I realized as never before that Shue's play is also about the clash between literal-minded killjoys and the transforming world of theater, which regularly takes actor and audience into undiscovered countries they'd never otherwise visit. »Read Full Article
