Skip to comments.Antique firearms collector with more than 140 guns is jailed for two years for owning four air(UK)
Posted on 11/07/2011 3:34:49 AM PST by marktwain
An antiques firearms collector was jailed for two years after he was found to have four air rifles and ammunition without the correct licences.
When police raided Karl Blennerhassett's luxury flat in Up Holland, West Lancashire, they found more than 140 guns, including racks of rifles and revolvers, a court heard.
Expert examination found that the vast majority were classed as antiques and legally owned but it was the other items which landed him behind bars.
Liverpool Crown Court heard that Blennerhassett, who works for his father's tarmacking business, had previously held a firearms certificate.
However, it was revoked in 2008 after he was convicted and fined for failing to comply with its conditions.
Blennerhassett admitted possessing one air rifle without a certificate, which was just over the permitted velocity limit, and was convicted by a jury of illegally possessing three others which had been modified, and two charges of possessing a bullet.
'Each of these three rifles are deemed specially dangerous under the legislation,' said Judge Mark Brown.
'Each was of high specification in that each had been fitted with a sound moderator and telescopic sight. Each had been modified and modified in a very professional way.'
The judge accepted that Blennerhassett had not modified the weapons himself but he did not accept that he had not known they were modified.
'This is a serious case and I am satisfied you were deliberately flouting the provisions of the Firearms Act,' he said.
The judge said Blennerhassett had decided to sidestep the legislation by having the air rifles modified so that it appeared they were legal when in fact they were not.
The police raid last December also uncovered what was described as an "air rifle kit" involving magazines, pellets and compression springs.

They might need those air rifles once their continent starts to burn.
Another dangerous criminal off the street.
I can understand Britains fear of these guns. When the Muslims finally take complete control they do not want anyone to be armed and able to fight the beneficent immigrant population that will take control their country, formerly the Brits country./s/
I think it was the "two charges of possessing a bullet" that really put it over the edge.
Has the last sane person left Britain?
THESE are the persecuted refugees we should be allowing into the USA.
Not tons of Mehhicccans and Somalis.
At least the judge didn't scream "You'll shoot your eye out!" at him.
When compression springs are outlawed, only outlaws will have compression springs.
However, Judge Brown asked the prosecution to write to the Home Office expressing his concerns over the need for legislation for antique firearms.
I am concerned about guns falling into the wrong hands which can have lethal consequences,' he said.
Advice from an old man: Serve your time son and go West. You would be welcome and feel right at home in Texas. England is finished.
The olde axiom "the Sun never sets on England" has now become "the Sun is setting on England"!
Sir Winston has been forgotten!
All the usual cliches about the UK on this thread as I expected.
I own three guns, I carry them round in my Land Rover and shoot with them weekly. The licences required are simple and easy to comply with, I've never had any problems in twenty years of gun ownership. If people are incapable of complying with firearm licences, they shouldn't own guns.
PS - your old axiom is very wrong. The sun sets on England everyday, it would be most odd if it didn't. I think the phrase you were seeking was "The sun never sets on the British Empire" which refers to the fact that somewhere in the world it was always daylight on a part of the empire.
I legally own several rifles and handguns without a single permit having been required.
I can carry open or concealed without a permit.
I do have a concealed carry permit simply because it is reconized by several other states which I visit often. There are several areas in the US that have laws similar to the UK, but it is easy to not go there.
And I have many "unregistered bullets."
Do you own a pistol?
I am sure there are many Brits left who are sane enough to see what is happening, In America they would be called Tea Partiers.
Unfortunately they are facing the same opposition Tea Partiers are facing in America.
Politicians who are gutless.
Kinda makes you ponder...
Were the Crusades such a bad idea???
Hindsight being 20/20 of course...hehe
Licensing for air rifles is ridiculous!
As is pretending "compliance" should be taken in stride.
How nice of your government to allow you to comply. And since you licensed them like a good little boy they will be easy for the government to find if they ever decide you don't need them anymore.
If people are incapable of complying with firearm licences, they shouldnt own guns.
So when the government decides that things are getting too dangerous out there and confiscates your guns (for your own safety, of course)the only ones left armed are the government and the criminals. Even in your fantasy world where only the capable had guns you are still left to the mercy of a bigger, stonger criminal. But don't worry. The government will protect you.
Years ago my Uncle Bob, a man in his 70's who had never so much as had a traffic ticket, decided he wanted the 70th anniversary Daisy Red Ryder. He had owned one as a child and I guess he wanted to relive some fond memories. Just by chance I found out that he had been waiting for over a year to get his New Jersey gun permit approved, for a child's toy! I lived in New Hampshire so I went to my local Service Merchandise (remember them?) to pick one up for him. It turned out they were out of stock but they said that some were available just over the border in Massachusetts. So we went into Haverhill to buy it. The sales clerk told us we would have to go to the police department, apply for a permit, wait for approval, etc. I called my sister, who happened to be in Maine on business, and had her pick one up at Kittery Trading Post. It took her all of 2 minutes. She took it back to NJ and gave it to my Uncle, who kept it proudly displayed over the mantlepiece until the day he died.
Can you apply for a handgun permit listing self-defense alone as the reason: Answer: NO
Can the Great Britain pistol shooting team practice in Great Britain: Answer: NO, they have to practice in Switzerland
Do police restrict amount and type of ammo and where and how firearms may be used: Answer: Yes
Can you own a semi-automatic shotgun in Great Britain: Answer: You guessed it!
One day, probably not in the too far distant future, Britain is going to once again come under attack and they will be begging us for guns AGAIN. My great uncles and my grand parents donated some guns to help them out in WWII.
I will not lift a finger to help them. I will not donate any of my guns just to be destroyed by morons after the crisis is over...not if but when they once again are under attack. I will not donate a single firearm help them out. I would highly recommend that the British citizenry demand their gun rights back and get them before it's too late.
Sorry, I forgot to mention that your handgun can be a muzzle-loader only! NO OTHERS. Bwahahahaha!
I am certainly no historian, but IMO the Crusades held back Islam for a thousand years.Now they become strong again, Thanks to our feeding them oil money.
If we are to survive this latest, not so subtle attack on Christianity and attempt to take over the world we will sooner or later have to have another crusade and kill them back enough for another thousand.
I know that sounds like the ramblings of a hate crazed anti-Islamic, but open your mind and see what is happening in Europe, France, England, the Netherlands, even in Muslim dominated parts of our own country.
Europe is facing an invasion of Muslims while we face a Hispanic invasion, and scattered Muslim invasion. Our Resident is inviting more, and paying their way in.
Black Muslims of Farrakhans cult are only fooling themselves,they are not Muslims they are hate filled racist blacks and the real Muslims will deal with them in a strong way if it comes down to that.
Were the Crusades a good idea? I don't know, but I can see only two things happening with ,Muslims growing stronger every day, We will have to fight or succomb.
We're pretty much screwed any way you look at it...And there are not enough of us left to put up a decent enough fight...
That doesn't mean I won't fight...
'Can the Great Britain pistol shooting team practice in Great Britain: Answer: NO, they have to practice in Switzerland'.
Isle of Man actually.
Idiotic I agree.
I opposed the 1997 handgun ban, then and now.
Sad commentary with a touching result!
I'd expect less hassle in Eastern Europe, 30 years ago.....
Air rifles in the UK dont need a licence unless they exceed a certain power, and are then classed as actual rifles. This man's 'air rifles' are clearly of a calibre that means they are classed as a rifle, and as such has to have a licence.
Most of the kind ww2 guns sent to the UK were actually melted down and used to make guns for the army after the threat of German invasion receded, from 1941/2 onwards. Some left in 1945 may have been disgarded, but the facts are hard to confirm.
p.s who exactly is going to attack us?.
Coming soon to a town near you.
>> "Has the last sane person left Britain?" <<
311 years ago!
>> "Has the last sane person left Britain?" <<
391 years ago!
>> "who exactly is going to attack us?"
Your own slothful ignorance already has, and completely conquered you.
I bought a Webley air pistol many years ago. Even back then, there was a note in the box that warned that if I ever had to replace the spring, I should use genuine Webley parts. Springs of unknown origin could raise the velocity to more than what was legal and subject the owner to criminal prosecution. Luckily, I am not in England.
There were compressed air repeating weapons used in war to kill people, a long time ago. Current American air rifles don't go above .22 caliber, IIRC. But a projectile of nearly any acceptable rifle caliber can be accelerated to deadly speed using compressed air. One of my favorites is a twelve shot repeater in .177 caliber, using a compressed gas cylinder. Pesky woodpeckers and invading ground hogs have fallen to it.
Haven't you heard? It's da muzlims. Obviously. Snore.
I have rifles.
None licensed.
Never will be!
Licensing never stops criminal violence.
Being armed does!
Albert Einstein said, "I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones. "
What human accomplishment convinces you that your nation will never again come under attack?
Do you think that people have universally adopted "democracy" as the solution to all human problems? Or are there significant populations that believe otherwise and who would kill you to make the point?
Of those who claim to espouse "democracy", who among them do you trust not to impose their version of democracy upon you? Who among them doesn't believe that your property, your labor, your children, and your future should all be under the control of the majority?
Are you convinced that you now possess so little in the way of wealth or culture that others will not be motivated by envy to take what you have and destroy what you value?
Be aware that the destructive power of envy will only be increased by the failure of socialist systems around the world. The enormous debts incurred during the last half century will either be repudiated or defaulted. They cannot be repaid.
Will you be among those who are blamed for such economic chaos or will you be among those who blame others? Either way, what will prevent you from suffering greatly because of it? What convinces you that your best days are ahead rather than behind you?
Ah, the Moozlims, right, gotcha.
I was too distracted by the fact that 97% of the British population is NOT Muslim.
But are you distracted enough to allow your own "British" government to cancel your God given rights?
At least you recognize the muzzie threat, but the real threat is being ignored.
Oh, so Merry Ole England is not such a bad place to own firearms, which you seem to be implying.
Among your vast collection, are there any .44 magnum revolvers, Thompson machine guns, AK-47s, you know, interesting guns? Not shotguns, no matter how elegant they may appear.
You say that you are not allowed to own such armaments? Pity. We are.
I had a good friend who was on the Wisconsin university pistol team 40 years ago. She had just come from a visit to the UK where she had acquired a Colt .45. She said the gun laws there were not too bad, all you had to do was join a club.
40 years later, and you are not allowed to own modern pistols. Licenses are required for a number of air guns, subject to considerable police discretion.
We have the Second Amendment of our Constitution, you had an Englishman's right to arms. Because our rights were written down, we have been slower to give in to the progressive disease, and may serve as an example for finding our way back to more freedom.
I think that in many parts of the rural UK, the chains are pretty light and tolerable. The UK still has some freedoms that we have allowed to slip away, such as earning income in another country without it being taxed.
I salute you for your contributions to freerepublic, and look forward to reading them.
Always assume that there is an aggressor and prepare for it. Peace is fine as long as you are prepared for war.
Britain has lapsed in that regard and at some point, there will be another aggressor who wants to control Europe or the world. If you think it won't or can't happen again, you are only fooling yourself.
What I am referring to is that we sent guns to Britain to help in the defense of a friendly nation. Then long after the war, Britain puts draconian restrictions on gun ownership and destroys tens of thousands of guns in the hands of the citizenry. The British citizens were fools to allow disarmament. If they allow their own government to take their ability to defend themselves away, imagine what they'll do for an invader...
If by 'long after the war', you are referring to the handgun ban post-Dunblane (1996), the British govt didnt destroy the guns people held at the time of tbe ban. They did have an amnesty to allow people to hand in now-illegal guns, and whilst some handed their guns in, many simply 'disappeared'.
the fact that it happened is sad. Truly sad. Your government should be ashamed of what it has done.
The fear that the British Government has of firearms, including air rifles is almost laughable except that they also stripped the right of the citizens to effectively defend themselves. The fact that the citizens put up with it is even worse.
No disagreement here.
It has happened because Britain has never been a gun owning populace, so there was little opposition to the various laws over the years. Esp. after Hungerford and Dunblane.
Actually I supported the particular ban after Hungerford on assault weapons, oddly enough.
Brave of you to admit that. Not many people would here. I must say I'm impressed with your truthfulness on it.
This is how I see it. I support bans on guns if it applies to everyone. That includes Governments and no exemptions. At that point, once all the guns are gone, I'll build a ton of new guns and take over. If I don't do it, someone else will. I promise to be a benign dictator. Really I do. And, if I'm not, whose gonna stop me?
See the problem with gun bans? The people that give up the guns have to trust that those who don't will be nice to them. They rarely are.

ToptiCalc is TOPTICA Photonics scientific calculator specially designed for use in optics laboratories.
We dedicate this helpful calculator to our customers, physicists and engineers, people that work hard in order to make optics and lasers useful for science and industry.
It is free and we hope it can help to make some of your calculations easier!
The special features of ToptiCalc are:
Mathematical expressions are entered via a simple intuitive syntax
Mathematical expressions are entered via a simple intuitive syntax
- Simply enter the calculation like you would write it down. ToptiCalc supports the operators + , - , * , / , ^ (power) and the predefined functions sin (x), cos (x), tan (x), arcsin (x), arccos (x), arctan (x), sqrt (x), exp (x), ln (x), log (x) and pi.
Dots AND commas are accepted as decimal separators
- Independent of the international setting of your keyboard
A history list collects all entered expressions and the calculated results
- You can always check whether you really entered the correct expression.
With a double click on the history list an old expression can be inserted into the current expression
- You can easily modify earlier caculations or use and combine earlier results for new calculations.
With a right-click selected parts or the complete history list can be transferred to the clipboard
- You easily insert your calculations and results into any text.
Important fundamental constants are available in SI units (feature 'const SI')
- A convenient selection of fundamental constants saves frequent looking up in textbooks.
Spectroscopic constants are available in convenient and useful 'lab units' (feature 'const lab')
- Often the SI units are too awkward for real laboratory life. If you want to e.g. translate the optical path length (which you measured with your ruler in millimeters) into a temporal delay in picoseconds its much more convenient to have the speed of light directly in mm/ps.... Thus ToptiCalc provides some important fundamental constants in common alternative units.
Arbitrary functions and variables can be defined by the user
- You can easily define your own frequently needed functions and constants, and save them to your harddisk. Do you often need to calculate an index of refraction of your glass for different wavelengths? Just define the relevant Sellmeier function. Or do you often need Planck's constant for translating frequencies into energies? Simply define a constant h.
Pressing CTRL+X in the input line or or right-clicking in the history list provides a very easy and quick way to define a variable with the value of the current expression or any older calculation, respectively.
Selected optic and spectroscopic calculations are internally built-in
- You are a physicist reading a chemistry paper. Why do they always use wavenumbers instead of wavelengths...? ToptiCalc helps you in your everyday laboratory life by offering simple but pratical optics calculations like

Former NFL player David Meggett sat quietly Monday inside a Charleston County courtroom and looked on as a woman half his age testified that he raped her inside her North Charleston home in January 2009.
Meggett's attorney, Beattie Butler of the Charleston County Public Defender's Office, told the jury that Meggett and the woman had consensual sex that night and later argued over $200 that she owed Meggett.
But Assistant 9th Circuit Solicitor Culver Kidd said their encounter was rape and urged the jury to issue a verdict that gives the woman closure "and that prevents Mr. Meggett from doing something like this again."
As the trial began, the woman dabbed at her tears and stifled sobs as she recounted how she returned to her North Charleston home to begin classes at the College of Charleston when she awoke around midnight to find Meggett -- whom she knew then only as "Michael" -- sitting at the foot of her bed. She testified that she had met him several months before through her former roommate and that they had a brief, drunken consensual sexual encounter the previous May.
She testified that she owed him $200, and he asked her to pay him back when he appeared at the foot of her bed. When she said she didn't have it, "he told me he was going to take a down payment now," she testified. She was 21 at the time.
She testified that Meggett then grabbed her throat, pinned her arm behind her back and had forcible intercourse with her. He apologized through her window as he left her home, and she then called her mother and eventually drove herself to Roper St. Francis Northwoods emergency room. As she was giving her first statement to police, Meggett called her several times on her cell phone again to apologize.
Police learned that "Mike" was actually Meggett when he showed up at the hospital looking for her.
Circuit Judge Kristi Harrington is presiding over the trial, which is expected to last through Wednesday.
Meggett, 44, faces 15 years to life in prison on the burglary charge, if convicted, and up to 30 years in prison on the criminal sexual conduct charge.
He became a well-known running back and punt returner during his 10 seasons with the New York Giants, New England Patriots and New York Jets, but he also had his share of off-field problems. The incident for which he now stands trial was his second such arrest while on probation for a 2006 attack in North Carolina.

For the 10 last years, terrestrial and satellite (GRACE) gravity measurements have reached such a precision that they can be of interest to better monitor underground water masses. First, we show that terrestrial measurements provide high-precision information about the time evolution of mass changes in the few kilometres square around the gravimeter. Then, examples of the possibilities and limitations of terrestrial measurements are given in Membach, close to Eupen, and in the Rochefort karst system. In Membach, we show that the evapotranspiration can be directly inferred from continuous gravity measurements: as water evaporates and transpires from terrestrial ecosystems, the mass distribution varies through the system, changing its gravity field at the level of, or smaller than 10-10 g per day. This corresponds to 2.0 mm of water over an area of 50 ha. The strength of this method is its ability to ensure a direct, traceable and continuous monitoring of actual ET for years at the mesoscale (~50 ha) with a precision of a few tenths of mm of water. In Rochefort, gravity measurements at the surface and in the cave allows separating the water contained in the unsaturated zone from the saturated one and therefore monitoring groundwater content changes that occur in the unsaturated zone only.

A comprehensive hydrogeological investigation regarding the influence of variations in local and regional water mass on superconducting gravity measurements is presented for observations taken near the geodynamic station of Membach, Belgium. Applying a regional water storage model, the gravity contribution due to the elastic deformation of the Earth was derived. In addition, the Newtonian gravity effect induced by the local water mass variations was calculated, using soil moisture observations taken at the ground surface (about 48 m above the gravimeters). The computation of the gravimetric effect is based on a digital elevation model with spatially discretized rectangular prisms. The obtained results are compared with the observations of a superconducting gravimeter (SG). We find that the seasonal variations can be reasonably well predicted with the regional water storage model and the local Newtonian effects. Shorter-period effects depend on the local changes in hydrology. This result shows the sensitivity of SG observations to very local water storage changes.

Andrea Nill: Without the support of at least a handful of Republicans, the DREAM Act doesn't stand a chance.
Rocky Road Ahead for DREAM Act
Marcu Stern: even though the DREAM Act has drawn Republican support in the past, it's unclear whether the White House can win over enough Senate Republicans to make up for the handful of Democrats who are expected to vote against the bill.
Mid-Term Elections: "Gloom and Doom"?
Anthony Samad: Do Republicans expect these two segments of Obama's enormous base to stay home in 2012? If they do, they had better wake up. The "Obama Wave" is waitin' on 'em.
America Turns Right
Randy Shaw: Obama's early and steadfast refusal to attack Republicans in fiercely partisan terms allowed the GOP to blame Democrats for the ongoing economic crisis, and by the time Obama hit the campaign trail it was too little too late to change the public mood.
Three G Republicans
Berry Craig: Talk about a close encounter of the worst kind: Imagine a Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and a House Speaker John Boehner.
DREAM Act Delayed in the Senate, But DREAMers Continue
Seth Hoy: Maybe Congressional promises to keep fighting for the DREAM Act are enough; maybe they aren't. But what the DREAMers can take heart in is the energy and enthusiasm they reverberated through the Senate this week.
Carl Levin: McCain Introduced a 'Non-Relevant' Amendment, Too
Andrea Nill: Levin also noted that the Senate has debated amendments to the bill on a number of issues. One of those amendments was introduced by McCain.
Obama Throws White House Support Behind DREAM Act
Seth Hoy: Although the President has pledged his support for the DREAM Act, mounting GOP opposition will make it increasingly difficult for Sen. Harry Reid to find the 60 votes necessary for cloture on the amendment next week, assuming the Defense Authorization bill makes it through round one, the motion to proceed, next Tuesday.
Reid Announces He Will Include DREAM Act in Defense Authorization Bill
A study released by the Migration Policy Institute this summer estimated that out of the 2.1 million potential beneficiaries of DREAM Act legislation, 38 percent (825,000 people) would actually obtain permanent legal status due to the bill's strict requirements.
Labor, Enviros Share Blame for Democrats Enthusiasm Gap
Obama can narrow the enthusiasm gap by aggressively campaigning, but it will be up to labor and environmental groups to rouse their disaffected supporters to the polls.
Histrionics Over the Mosque: Symbolism Crowds Out Reality
Ivan Eland: The American media, and to a lesser extent the world media, focus on symbolism at the expense of underlying reality. And sometimes they can't even make sense of the symbolism. The artificially generated controversy over a proposed mosque within about two blocks of the site of the 9/11 attacks is illustrative of this ignorance.
America "Refudiates" Rights When Used
Ed Rampell: The controversy over building an Islamic community center near Ground Zero shows that in America, you have constitutional rights – until the second you try to use them.
Why the GOP's Bizarre Attack on the 14th Amendment
Andrea Nill: it likely boils down to two things: riling up their base before November's midterm elections and creating a toxic environment to kill any chance of the DREAM Act passing if and when it is introduced this fall.

Milwaukee music stalwarts join forces on 'Plays Well With Others'
Local electric guitar whiz Greg Koch called in a bunch of favors for the Greg Koch Band's latest album, "Plays Well With Others." Guest contributors range from New Orleans funk musician Jon Cleary to Paul Barrere from acclaimed genre-blending rock band Little Feat to Leonard Cohen's musical director, Roscoe Beck. There's also an appearance from blues guitarist and singer Joe Bonamassa, who is so popular he sold out the 2,500-seat Riverside Theater this year.
But the most important friend on Koch's new album is closer to home: John Sieger, frontman for local Americana band Semi-Twang. "Plays Well With Others" marks the first time these two local music heavyweights, who have 24 albums between them, have joined forces. Koch wrote the bulk of the music, while Sieger handled the lyrics and sang on all the tracks except one. "I got possessive," Sieger said, half-jokingly. They talked about the collaboration in advance of their show Friday night at Summerfest. »Read Full Article
Milwaukee designer Bree Rose puts blankets to good use
It's that time of the year when we're running for cover, huddling beneath the bright geometric shapes that have been knitted or crocheted by our matriarchs (and the occasional patriarch) and tucked into trunks and closets.
How great would it be if the blankets that keep us cozy on cold days could go with us out in to the world? Is there such a thing as comfy, cuddly couture? »Read Full Article

Linux Foundation Releases Enterprise Linux Report
Linux Adoption Trends 2012: A Survey of Enterprise End Users
The Linux Foundation recently released the "Linux Adoption Trends 2012: A Survey of Enterprise End Users," which provides new data about Linux's role in enterprise computing.
The invitation-only survey was conducted in late 2011 in partnership with Yeoman Technology Group and responses were received from nearly 1,900 individuals. According to the website, the survey reports trends among the world's largest enterprise companies and government organizations – as identified by 428 respondents at organizations with US$ 500 million or more in annual revenues or more than 500 employees.
According to the Linux Foundation website, the 2012 Enterprise Linux survey shows that affinity among new and veteran Linux users continues to increase at the expense of Windows and Unix. The website states that part of this growth is because of Linux's role in two of today's biggest IT trends: supporting the increasing level of "Big Data" and achieving productivity and security gains with virtualization and cloud computing. According to the survey, enterprise Linux users show steady progress on all of these fronts and a clear preference for Linux as the foundation for these trends.
Some findings include:
- Eight out of ten respondents say that they have both added Linux servers in the last 12 months and plan to add more in the next 12 months, with the same number planning to add more Linux in the next five years.
- More than 75% of respondents expressed concern about supporting "Big Data" and nearly 72% are choosing Linux to support it.
- Technical issues cited by Linux users dropped 40% – from 20.3% in 2010 to 12.2%. Twenty-two percent fewer respondents cite perception by management as an issue, and 10% fewer say there are no issues at all impeding the success of Linux.
- More than two-thirds of respondents consider Linux to be more secure than other operating systems.

Pictured on top is a toad and lettuce leafs made of modeling chocolate which was brushed with an edible silver glaze to mimic pewter. Silicone molds were used for these shapes. The cake itself was not covered with any icing, this is a newer trend in cakes which are called "nude" because of no icing on the outside, thus the title of this cake: Nude Toad.

A Common Pleas Court judge Tuesday ruled that former Philadelphia NAACP president Jerome Whyatt Mondesire must turn over financial records from a community development corporation that he controls to three members of its executive board.
After listening to about an hour of arguments from lawyers, Judge Gary Glazer ruled that Mondesire, who was not present, must provide records of Next Generation CDC dating from 2005 to Donald "Ducky" Birts, Sid Booker, and the Rev. Elisha Morris.
The three are still listed as members of Next Generation's executive board despite their falling-out with Mondesire.

Afghanistan: Woman who killed American is Iranian
KABUL, Afghanistan -- The policewoman who killed an American contractor in Kabul is a native Iranian who came to Afghanistan and displayed "unstable behavior" but had no known links to militants, an Interior Ministry spokesman said Tuesday.
The policewoman, identified as Sgt. Nargas, shot 49-year-old Joseph Griffin, of Mansfield, Ga., on Monday. Nargas walked into a heavily-guarded compound in the heart of Kabul, confronted Griffin and gunned him down with a single pistol bullet.
The U. S-based security firm DynCorp International said on its website that Griffin was under contract to the NATO military command to advise the Afghan police force.

Quesadas and Garcia Team Up for New Cigar Line
Gregory Mottola
Posted: June 22, 2012
Three of the most high-profile young ladies in the cigar business have collaborated to create a new, limited-edition cigar called Tres Reynas, which translates to "three queens." The new project is the brainchild of Quesada sisters Patricia and Raquel of S.A.G. Imports in the Dominican Republic, along with Janny Garcia of My Father Cigars Inc. in Nicaragua.
"Janny is like a sister to us," said Raquel Quesada. "We always have such a great time together, so we thought it would be fun to make a cigar that would represent our special bond. It is a project we have been discussing for a while and are so excited to finally be able to share it with the world."
Janny echoes the sentiment of their friendship adding "We have been working on this for some time and we couldn't be more excited. This cigar means a lot to us and brought both families closer together."
Tres Reynas will be unveiled at the upcoming IPCPR trade show and consists of an all-Nicaraguan binder and filler draped in dark Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper. Blended to be a medium-bodied cigar, Tres Reynas has a signature taste that, according to S.A.G.'s Terence Reilly "is unlike anything either family produces separately."
My Father makes the cigar in Nicaragua, but Quesada's family company, S.A.G., will handle the distribution. Rolling has already begun.
Retailing in the $7 to $8 range, the brand comes in three sizes: Gordo, 6 inches by 60 ring, Torpedo, 6 by 54 and Robusto, 5 by 50. Only 1,000 boxes of each size are scheduled for production.
For more on the Quesada sisters, see Generation Next. And, to hear Janny Garcia speak about the My Father Cigars factory, see this video.

This child's sterling silver juice mug is adorable. I love the form of it. I can see a child gripping the handle and helping himself to the liquid treat! The mug is monogrammed "Michael."
The stamps on the bottom are "Sterling" & "4589." "R. & B." is also stamped on the bottom as well as "Sanitary Soldered Edge."
The mug is 1 ¼" high X 2" in diameter. The handle extends 1" from the mug's side. The mug was obviously used but its condition is very good, with one very slight dent close to the mug's base.

THEY WILL OPEN UP THE NEW LYNN STADIUM... DEREK FORREST JOINS US WITH MORE... NOT ONLY WILL THE PROGRAMS PLAY THEIR SEASON OPENERS AT LYNN STADIUM ... THEY WILL BEGIN THEIR JOURNEY IN THE A-C- C... THE WOMEN WILL LEAD THE CHARGE FRIDAY AS THEY WILL TAKE ON OLE MISS AT 5:30PM TO OPEN UP THE NEW STADIUM ... THEY WILL THEN BE FOLLOWED BY THE MEN WHO WILL HOST A-C-C FOE MARYLAND ... BOTH COACHES SPOKE TO THE MEDIA ABOUT GETTING USED TO PLAYING IN THE NEW STADIUM ... AND WHAT THEY COULD EXPECT FROM THEIR FANS FRIDAY NIGHT... "The jumbotron was on. The dasher boards were on around the side. We'll get in there again on Thursday. Just to make sure we are prepared for those distractions. Because it will be different. We've never played in a stadium that has a 33 square football jumbotron and dasher boards. That's a pro venue. Something like that. For our kids, it's going to be super exciting. Certainly for us, the coaching staff, and for the fans. What an amazing night Friday will be." "I, what I expect is that the women have had a dominant performance against Ole Miss. And we are coming in riding a wave of excitement and momentum going in to our game. Like Karen said, I think that it's likely that the crowd will be arriving as her game goes on. And certainly by the beginning of ours, the stadium will be packed. I'm sure it will be sold out. We traditionally have a large walk up in all of our games. Whether it has been NCAA or regular season. And I think our fans are conditioned for that." COMING UP IN SPORTS AT 6PM ... LOUISVILLE LINEBACKER LORENZO

Only five cents of every healthcare dollar spent in the United States is spent on prevention, while the rest is spent on treatment. At the same time, more than 75 percent of our healthcare costs stem from preventable, chronic conditions. The conclusion is clear — our country could be more successful at reducing healthcare costs by emphasizing disease prevention and health promotion.
And that's just what we do. EngagementHealth's 52-week wellness programs provide the support, resources and touchpoints that make it easier for employees to get healthy and stay healthy.
Total Population Management
Many wellness programs target only the high-risk. The EH programs focus on creating healthy habits for everyone, not just the high-risk. Studies have shown it is much easier to prevent the apparently low-risk from becoming high-risk than to move someone from high-risk to low-risk.
Unparalleled Service
Your personal EH Account Manager will be your guide to a hands-free, seamless wellness program. We don't just provide the "tool kit." Instead, we handle all preparation and delivery of your program's communications, reports and ongoing support.
Fees at Risk
EngagementHealth provides program funding options that put EH fees 100% at risk starting in year one.
Mike, 64
Quit smoking with EH after
40 years of tobacco use
"EngagementHealth has been an outstanding partner. Their wellness program is comprehensive, participation-based, and has something for everyone."
"With over 90% of our employees and their spouses participating and positive results quarter after quarter, it's obvious that EngagementHealth is the right choice for us."
"As a firm, we've always believed in promoting wellness. EH has given us a platform to do so in a way that is customized to meet our needs and really resonates with our employees."
"Employees benefit directly by seeing lower increases in their share of the healthcare plan premium compared to the market average. The EngagementHealth difference is employee engagement."

As you will remember, last week I demonstrated how to make the perfect hummus. What do you mean you didn't read it? Well, ok, for those of you whose newsagent was having a family crisis or whose dogs were hungry for newsprint, here's a quick recap.
"Next time, can you ask them to send a paperback?" Thus spake my wonderful postman after handing me The World Atlas of Wine, by Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. And I couldn't blame him: at 2.25kg, this volume is no joke when added to an already-full postbag.

I n this country, hummus is a dip to be picked up at the supermarket and eaten with a stick of carrot or celery. In Israel, however, hummus is an obsession. The trendy hummus places have queues around the block as Israelis flock to eat the best version of this seemingly humble dip.
Student and gourmet are words with little to connect them. Most students reputedly exist on a diet of baked beans and take-aways.

This is a big week for youngsters up and down the country as the start of the university year looms. There are challenges for everyone in their fresher year.
Jeans for Genes Day takes place on Friday September 20; the simple initiative invites people to wear their jeans to work or school (probably not to shul though) in return for a donation. The vital funding from the day provides care and support of children with genetic disorders. This year, 23 charities will benefit from the funding including Jewish Genetic Disorders UK.
How important is the food that a restaurant serves? For Guy Michlin, the Israeli founder of EatWith, the food is less important than the company: the social aspect of dining is the key to creating a memorable experience.

Members of an Iraqi volunteer force put on their newly issued boots in the Shiite holy city of Karbala, 50 miles (80 kilometers) south of Baghdad, Iraq, Tuesday, June 24, 2014. Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki has put on hold plans for a counteroffensive to retake Iraqi cities captured by Sunni insurgents in the north and west of the country, instead deploying elite forces in Baghdad to bolster its defenses, Iraqi officials tell the AP. Shiite militias who have responded to a cleric's call to arms also are focusing their efforts on protecting the capital and other Shiite shrines, while Kurdish fighters have grabbed a long-coveted oil rich city outside their self-ruled territory in the name of defending it from the al-Qaida breakaway group leading Sunni extremists in their advance. With each sect focused on self-interests, the situation on the ground is increasingly looking like the fractured state the Americans have hoped to avoid. "We are facing a new reality and a new Iraq," the top Kurdish leader says.

It took just one semi accident to back up traffic on Route 61 in Muhlenberg Township for more than seven hours Friday afternoon.
Stack after stack of mail lined the on ramp from Route 61 south to Route 222 south. Police say a semi truck was traveling down the ramp when the load shifted causing the truck to flip over and spill thousands of pounds of mail.
"We had three witnesses remain on scene that said that speed was not a factor. It is just as you can see we have 30,000 pounds of US Postal Service Mail and it does not stack very well," said Muhlenberg Township Police Officer Wayne Moreland.
From that moment, emergency crews were called in to shut down the ramp. But Route 61, which already has a significant amount of congestion because of construction, got even worse.
"Hectic," said Dick East with Fire Police.
Dick East typically works an hour or two to direct traffic during an accident. But he started at 12:30 in the afternoon and was still there six hours later. At one point traffic stretched 2.5 miles back to the Sheetz in Leesport. He says drivers handled the backup as best they could.
"Your norm. Some are alright with it. Others are complaining," said East.
While East was diverting traffic from the ramp, crews worked until 7 p.m. to clear the scene.
"V&M Towing attempted to flip it back over and the trailer actually started coming apart. So in lieu of losing all the mail, they decided to hand unload it," said Moreland.
The driver was not injured in the accident.
Police tell us the mail was traveling from Hamburg to York. They say the company has to take the mail back to Hamburg to re-sort it before it can be re-shipped. But police were not sure what kind of delay this will cause.

What if Rush Limbaugh Bought The Miami Herald?
The wingnuts at the Free Republic were prematurely dancing on the grave of The Miami Herald yesterday. There's some predictable, irrational bitching about bias in the mainstream media, and then they settle on the idea that, ha ha, Rush Limbaugh should buy The Herald. Which is exactly what you would want to see happen if you were truly concerned about bias.
Now, like everything posted in the comments on this site, it is absolutely, 100% not based on any sort of rational fact, but let's just imagine what would happen if Ol' Rushie bought The Herald. After the jump, we've Limbaugh-ized some of the recent hits from our favorite daily paper.
KEY LARGO -- Bob Hutchinson, a secular fanatic, has waged a yearly war on Christmas and decent American values by dressing up as Santa Claus, some sort of liberal mythical figure designed to take the focus of the Holidays off the birth of Christ onto some sort of Godless pagan celebration about gay reindeers. Poor defenseless, patriotic dogs are forced to partake in this propaganda, but because all of God's creations are endowed with an innate sense of Conservatism and traditional values, they peed all over this man, for great justice.

Taravella band will play for Obama
CORAL SPRINGS -- Innocent local high school children are being indoctrinated into worshiping newly installed Arab, Socialist President Barack Hussein Obama and are asking for communist welfare handouts in order to make this secular pilgrimage, instead of getting jobs and working hard for the money like any decent American should.
MIAMI -- Sorry to say this, I don't think he's been that good from the get-go. I think what we've had here is a little social concern in the NBA. The media has been very desirous that a black basketball player do well, as evidenced by this affirmative action headline.
Search on for answers to why planes collided
EVERGLADES -- More like search on for a decent doctor who can prescribe me some vicodin over here, jeez. Oh, some planes crashed. The pilots were probably homosexuals or humanists or black welfare queens or such and it was a message from God.

Profile: Nathan Grant, Logistics Specialist
- Career Field:
- Transportation, Supply & Logistics
- Service:
- Navy
- Type:
- Enlisted
- More from the Navy:
- Purchasing, Supply & Logistics Careers
When I first was thinking about enlisting, I was definitely going through the teenage years, not really knowing what I wanted to do. I wanted to do something business-related, but at the same time I wasn't too keen on going directly to college. I wasn't really mature enough to go to college at the time. So I looked at the Military and said, "OK, this is a different way of doing things."
I joined the Navy and went to Basic Training the following November. They had a storekeeper rating available, so after Boot Camp I went to school in Meridian, Miss. They gave you a general overall overview of logistics, accounting and other business-related fields.
One of the greatest things about being in the Military is that you can have a job, like being a logistics specialist, and you can do inventory for a year. You can go off and do accounting. You can be a purchasing manager. It really gives you a broad spectrum of opportunity within one job.
It really gives you a broad
spectrum of opportunity.
On a typical day, I obligate money to different accounts, contact vendors, set up contracts. We manage aviation parts for all the different commands within the flight line, the helicopters and the planes. We also manage official travel and then anything needed to run regular facility services.
We normally have about 20 commands we support directly, and then we do an assessment prior to the start of the fiscal year and ask them what their requirements are. The easiest way to do it is look at the prior history, and when they give us their projections, we will go back and say, "Oh, well, last fiscal year you spent this amount of money." And then we'll look at what they're giving us. We're using taxpayer dollars, so we're trying to be cost-efficient and effective with the money.
As my boss always told me, "You can't be a yes man; you have to tell a guy that's five pay grades higher than you, 'No, you can't get it, sir.' " And you have to be able to say that. You have to be smooth and do it clearly and concisely, not making them mad but giving them accurate information. And what I've learned is that even if these people really want supplies that are not authorized, they'll actually respect you in the long run.
When you have a breakthrough moment that takes you to the limit professionally and you succeed, you are so proud of yourself. These experiences make you love what you do for your command, the Military and for your country. And, ultimately, I think if I transitioned out of the Military, I'd probably want to work for a company that had maybe a government contract or had some kind of ties to the Military, so I'd feel like I can continue doing my part.

Isn't that a great title? I think it is a very good example of an attention grabbing heading for a blog or an article.
Asking a question has to be an attention grabber in itself as you will actually ask it of yourself. The brilliance of this is contained in the dissimilarity between panties and passwords combined with alliteration.
If only I could write blog titles like this I would have a much wider readership and it is for that reason mainly I have "borrowed" the title as well as to show it as an example of great work.
If you are fairly new to blogging or maybe struggling to get your readership into double digits, try reading more blogs and articles to discern what makes you want to click through and actually read them. This blog does re-purposes another article which is what the majority do. There is nothing wrong in doing that with the proviso that you refer to the originator and give credit to your sources and the more you blog the more likely you are to attract readers and if you are using your blogs to help your social media profile to increase your search engine rankings the benefits are simple: Most people have limited to come up with original articles and if you find something interesting it is to be hoped that your readers will also.

HP Pavilion dv5-1011ea
Average of 2 scores (from 2 reviews)
Reviews for the HP Pavilion dv5-1011ea
Source: Techradar
The HP Pavilion dv5-1011ea is a reasonable machine at a more than affordable price.
The Blu-ray drive will no doubt be the main selling point, but we also found the graphics and performance to be better than we were expecting. Battery life is poor, but if you're looking for a machine to use around the house, this is worth considering.

There's much to like about the HP Pavilion dv5-1011ea and it comes pretty close to being an ideal all-round multimedia machine. Indeed, the only thing that holds it back and precludes it from an award, is the slightly disappointing screen. This doesn't mean you should disregard it completely, its superb design, excellent feature set and reasonable price ensure that, but if you're interested then it's worth taking a look at one in the flesh before settling on it.
