A firearm is a kinetic energy weapon that fires either a single or multiple projectiles propelled at high velocity by the gases produced by action of the rapid confined burning of a propellant. This process of rapid burning is technically known as deflagration. In older firearms, this propellant was typically blackpowder, but modern firearms use smokeless powder or other propellants.

Pals In Pakistan Part Seven - A Dangerous World
By Teve Torbes, Fri Dec 9th

Second, most of the signals that Pakistan has sent havesuggested that they would accept U.S. nuclear securityassistance as long as Pakistan received assurances that anyinformation gained would remain classified and that the U.S.wouldn't attempt to intervene in their program. The Italiandelegation mentioned earlier specifically discussed PALS withPakistan's General Kidwai, and left with the belief thatPakistan would accept U.S. offers of assistance if they weremade (Cotta-Ramusino and Martellini). Pakistan's foreignminister also suggested to them that they were planning onsending a delegation of officials to the U.S. to discuss thepossibility of allowing the U.S. to install PALS (Cotta-Ramusinoand Martellini). While Pakistan may hold some reservations aboutunlimited cooperation with the U.S., they seem to be sending thesignal that they are willing to engage in cooperation withinsome limitations. If PALS increase the security of Pakistan'sarsenal, then working the program around their needs is areasonable price to pay for reducing the risk of unauthorizednuclear use. A second line of argumentation that opponents ofPALS transfer have made is based upon the current assemblystatus of Pakistani weapons (Cotta-Ramusino and Martellini).Pakistan claims that its weapons are currently in an unassembledstate and could not be used without first

<div>From plants to parks. From dealerships to driveways. From gas stations to grocery stores. What happens in the automotive industry affects each and every one of us. In fact, the collapse of the U.S.-based auto industry wouldn't just impact the more than 239,000 Americans directly employed by the Big Three. One out of every 10 people in America is employed in a service that is related to the U.S. auto industry. If a plant closes, so does its suppliers, the local stores, the hot dog vendors, and the local restaurants.......</div><br>
Pentagon Clears Flying-Car Project for Takeoff
Pentagon mad-science division Darpa is helping build thought-controlled robotic limbs, artificial pack mules, real-life laser guns and &quot;kill-proof&quot; soldiers. So it comes as no surprise, really, that the agency is now getting into the flying-car business, too. Darpa hopes its &quot;Personal Air Vehicle Technology&quot; project, announced yesterday, will ultimately lead to a working prototype of a military-suitable flying car -- a two- or four-passenger vehicle that can &quot;drive on roads&quot; one minute and take off like a helicopter the next. The hybrid machine would be perfect for &quot;urban scouting,&quot; casualty evacuation and commando-delivery missions, the agency believes.<br><br>[ <a href="http://blog.wired.com/defense/2008/11/darpas-flying-c.html">source</a> ]<br>
Constitutional Dead Letters
<div>by <a href="mailto:rogerroots@msn.com">Roger Roots</a>&nbsp;| Historians of Soviet Russia occasionally note that the communist workers&rsquo; paradise was originally intended to adhere to a written constitution that expressly guaranteed freedoms such as speech, press and assembly. In practice, however, none of the freedoms guaranteed in the Soviet constitution were recognized in the country&rsquo;s legal system, and millions of dissenters and suspected dissenters were imprisoned or killed for disagreeing with the commissars of the state.</div><br><div>The United States Constitution, by contrast, is thought to be in <a href="http://townhall.com/columnists/LauraHollis/2008/10/29/a_president_who_wont_uphold_the_constitution_never">good standing</a>. Yet there are numerous provisions of the U.S. Constitution that are never enforced. These provisions, analogous to &ldquo;dead letters&rdquo; in the U.S. Postal System, are either totally ignored by federal judges or given such a narrow construction that they might as well not exist. As columnist and curmudgeon Joseph Sobran <a href="http://www.sobran.com/columns/1999-2001/990518.shtml">has written</a>, the Supreme Court has, in essence, exercised a &ldquo;line-item veto&rdquo; over the [docs], totally ignoring provisions that interfere with the justices&rsquo; national vision or social objectives.<br><a href="http://rinf.com/alt-news/politics/constitutional-dead-letters/4851/">http://rinf.com/alt-news/politics/constitutional-dead-letters/4851/</a></div><br>Read more for some examples

putting the weaponstogether. This has led some scholars to argue that thisunassembled state is better than having PALS installed on theirweapons for two reasons: first, because these scholars reasonthat unassembled weapons would be difficult to use withoutauthorization, and second, that to install PALS the weaponswould have to be assembled and thus might spook India intothinking that Pakistan was preparing to either use them or placetheir weapons on higher alert (Cotta-Ramusino and Martellini).These fears are among the more baseless arguments made about aPALS transfer program. The idea that unassembled weapons cannotbe used is highly suspect. The nuclear weapons would be safer ineach of the potential scenarios for some kind of unauthorizeduse with PALS installed.
