Hey I'd like to start a topic about the capabilities of China, militarily. Â I've heard some rumors of stealth cargo planes possibly being made in the future by other nations. Â Imagine the potential of this for such a nation such as China? China has milions of soldiers with 600 Million in reserve. Â Imagine if they wanted to invade the USA, they could do it quite easily if they had such technology as the stealth technology. Â Cargo planes dropping thousands of troops into our forests perhaps without us even knowing a thing. Â Do you think the United States is prepared for such a thing? Â Have you ever thought about this before? We will be in a war with them someday, we always are with the largest military power but what do you think...could china be the downfall to the USA? I'm also curious to talk about what exactly their military has in terms of technology. Â What type of weapons, vehicles, tanks, and airplanes do they have? ~BMg

who knows.....earthquakes are so scary...never want to be in one again..

Update.....Mt st helens is still going really crazy...but it seems that they are getting pretty worried about Rainer and hood at the moment from wat the news said...scientist are just wondering if Rainer and hood are responding or starting to act up...not sure Mt St Helens is still crazy Mt Hood is going....pretty crazy right now too Mt Rainer today....is going....pretty crazy too...more then half of its chart is filled with over mag 1 earthquakes mt Baker is chillin

lol Bible code stuff again, eh? Wonder if thats really going to happen, that comet hitting the earth and what not....

No thats impossible if you think about it unless california had a really big earthquake and i'm talking like 20 on the scale. Possibly not even that could do it. The thing that is probably causing a chain reaction around my area is most likely Mt. St. Helens acting up and stuff. ~Bmg

Hey Question...does this new tank pack thing include the gun on the top thing?

Hey....just here to inform you that the whole cascade range is waking up at the moment... Today....all of them awoke much to the surprise of alot of the scientist in the region.... Oh ya, Mt St Helens lava dome has grown 4 inches wider and 2 inches taller in the last 24 hours....... Mt St Helens...is really acting up now.... Mt Rainers got this at its Fremont Sensor station... Mt Bakers graph is usaully small stuff...now look at it Mt Hood in Oregon is also heating up a little bit...

Will take the ya advice into effect, aiight. A Marines Story--Part 1: The Beginning will be completed later tonight, then its on to Part 2...hell, people, at least i'm getting credit for this. Might as well throw in a Part 5 through 7 in Hue, eh? ~Bmg

The The Da Vinci Project and the Advent Launch Services are all the same though, self contained launching systems.....I think they should get those ones runing too! ~Bmg

CONTINOUS----PART 2 of Part 1 That night I had a dream---better call it a nightmare of the worst possible thing that could happen to you in combat. Â You aim your weapon just before the enemy points his gun at you and your gun jams. Â In that short span of time you realize you're dead, nothing you can do to prevent it. Â You're helpless, the meaning shoot the enemy before he shoots you becomes utterly meaningless. Â Its something all soldiers dread will be one of the many bad things that can happen to you in combat, you hope and think that no, it can't happen to me---I lurched forward all the sudden and found myself awake in my bunk, sweating like hell, scared to death that what had just happened had really happened. Â But it hadn't, it was just a dream, nothing more, just a dream. Â Just a dream. I got up out of bed, checked the time----2: 47am---and went over to the bath room, got some water in my hands from the bucket that the hotel had, and splashed some water on my face, dried off, and headed back to my bunk. Â Getting back in I put my arms behind me head and starred at the ceiling; remembering the dream, I started to think what if that really happened to me...when I was out there, fighting the enemy. Â I'd heard so many stories of our new assault rifle, the m16a1, jamming at the most inexcusable times...man, I hoped to hell that it wouldn't do that for me. Â Â I turned my head to the left to glance at the bunk across the room, West was still here; I looked to the right where Miller could be sleeping in his bunk, but usually wasn't, most of the time somewhere around Saigon with a pretty young lady. Â I swear to god, he could live off of women, he wouldn't need to drink, eat, or anything else....I believe he could survive. Â Clearing my mind again I started to drift back to sleep with some thoughts lingering around still, bothering me some but not too much. Â I began to go back into the dreamland....I saw in my mind a Vietnamesse soldier wielding an Ak-47 heading towards me, charging...then the loud crack of gunfire....really loud crack of gunfire. Â I opened my eyes. Â I wasn't dreaming. I nearly jumped out of my feet, the shooting sounded so close...lurching forward I struggled to get out of my sheets, seeming to keep hold of me, keeping me in the bed---not wanting me to leave----with all the struggle I fell off the side of my bed, hitting the floor with a loud thud. West was already up getting dress into his uniform and getting ready to move. Finally getting loose from the entanglement of sheets, I jumped to me feet, grabbed my pants and stuck them on. Looking over at West as I struggled to get ready with the adrenaline rushing around in my brain as the gunfire continued. "What the hells going on man?" "How the hell should I know what the hell is going on, jesus Christ though, the fire sounds like its coming from the embassay---" he said as we heard an explosion somewhere in the city. "Jesus, what the hell is going on!" "I don't know but it sounds like a longer vacation in paradise city is done and over with!" I said as I struggled to get my boots on. "Ya man, wake up, time to wake up and face reality-"he said as he finished getting his boots on."-your in the Marines to fight, not to have fun. What did you think Vietnam was going to be?" Getting his blouse and helmet on, grabbing his gun, he headed over to me just as I finished getting ready as well. "I thought from what I heard that it was going to be something like whats going on right now, what did you think I expected man?" I said as I grabed my gun and headed down stairs with West not too far behind. The crackle of gunfire was all around the town now and you could hear faint explosions in the distance....but the distinct sound of Ak's, were pounding away pretty close by. "Well, I'm not sure what you expect...but I can tell you what Miller expected." "Hey man, we can all tell what he expected...he's been having a blast. Shame, isn't it? He's not going to like this one bit!" I said finishing the conversation with a few laughs. On the street now the gun fire close by had calmed down some what, we could hear a lot of yelling around town and some people leaving their homes, trying to get away from whatever was going on. Still walking down the dark street, I glanced at my watch underneath a lamp light---3: 16am---still pretty early to be out wondering around. Well, we were going to the embassy to try and save the day, if they needed any saving that is. With me in the lead and West behind, I glanced around, looking up, flashes reflecting off the clouds from some distance away. Something major was going on.

LOL Lots of pimps in the Vietnam war too, eh?

I can imagine the mud flows to be going down the Nooksack could be pretty threatening to those areas, like....Ferndale, Blaine, Lynden...etc.,etc.,etc..... LOL!! All these places are right next to me! Imagine if it happened, that would be CRAZY!! I could watch the eruption from my house, oh man..tat would be tight because i'm far away enough that the pyroclastic* cloud would not reach my house...i hope...at least... ~Bmg

Pablo de Leon and Associates Buenos Aires, Argentina Gauchito (Little Cowboy) will be vertically launched from the ground using Hybrid Solid (Polyester Resin) and it will land in water using a parachute system. HARC Huntsville, Alabama HARC is an acronym for High Altitude Research Corporation, which plans to launch the Liberator from a sea vessel using a Lox-Kerosene regenerative cooled engine. The Liberator will release a crew capsule that will return to earth by the traditional means of parachute with a water landing. HARC’s first priority is passenger safety. Interorbital Systems Mojave, California Interorbital Systems’ Solaris X is a reusable single-stage rocket. It will be vertically launched from the Pacific Ocean using white fuming nitric acid and hydrocarbon X, and land horizontally in the ocean using parachutes. RocketPlane Solvang, California RocketPlane’s XP will take off under conventional turbojet thrust from a spaceport runway using kerosene. XP is designed so it can readily take off and land at the same spot. The mission will end with a powered, horizontal landing at a landing strip. Space Transport Corp. Forks, Washington Rubicon is a simple “rocket ship.” It will be launched vertically from a ground mobile structure using APCP solid rocket engines and descend with a parachuted ocean splashdown. Rubicon will then send out GPS information to a boat recovery team. Starchaser Industries Cheshire, England The Starchaser V - Thunderbird will begin a vertical ascent powered by turbofan engines. A liquid oxygen/kerosene rocket engine will then become the major propulsive force, but the vehicle will coast to the highest point.

Well he did the first one. Â He has one more I believe to ride to complete with a passenger within the next two weeks before they will be awarded the $10,000,000 Million Dollar prize. Once they have that money they will be able to do so much stuff, can you imagine? Â Here at the competetors of Space Ship One: Advent Launch Services Houston, Texas From a sea-based launch pad, the Advent will use oxygen and natural gas fuel to lift off into space. Afterwards the rocket is to glide to a landing at the launch site like a seaplane. ARCA Romania ARCA is the Romanian acronym for the Aeronautics and Cosmonautics Romanian Association. Its 8-ton, 46-foot (14-meter) high rocket, Orinzont, will take off vertically and release a crew capsule. Each segment will parachute down to the sea. Armadillo Aerospace Mesquite, Texas The Black Armadillo is a single-stage vehicle propelled by environmentally friendly hydrogen peroxide rocket engines. The vehicle will be vertically launched from the ground and parachute to a “groundbreaking” landing at 25 feet per second. Its crushable aluminum nose will neatly and systematically collapse into itself, and the capsule will fall on its side to end the mission. Canadian Arrow London, Ontario The Canadian Arrow two-stage vehicle will take off vertically. A second-stage crew cabin will reach the highest elevation, then deploy three parachutes before splashing down. The Da Vinci Project Toronto, Ontario The Da Vinci, a compact car-sized, oxygen and kerosene-powered rocket, will launch from the world's largest hot air balloon, fly to space, descend and deploy a parachute and land with GPS guidance. ~bmg

hey If you need some help with finishing the lods and get flashes to work, please...please...pm me

LOL...5.9 is pretty damned big....I remember in 1994, I lived in Los Angles, part of the LA district called Bellflower, just a small little urban town, but ya anyways...on that January morning right before Martin Luthers birthday we had a magnitude 6.7 earthquake that scared the living shit out of my small little kid self. I remember, it was still dark outside, my room started rattling like mad, you could actually here rumbling, stuff started falling around the kitchen and living room, my book case next to my bed feel onto my bed just short of my feet sending books all over the place and scarying me even more, my closet doors rattling...it was crazy...and it like lasted forever...I still remember the exact details...it was scary!! Oh ya the name of that 1994 quake was the Northridge Quake.. ~Bmg

Ok...here is section one of Part One of A Marines Story A Marines Story Part 1: The Beginning The night had arrived finally in the streets of Saigon. People were going home; the nightlife had begun; and soldiers of the United States Marine Corps partied it out in some of the best bars around town. Laughter could be heard all up and down the streets where most of the soldiers would head. Asian prostitutes lingered on the side of the road waiting for their knight in shining armor to come whisk them away and with an added bonus of a hundred or so bucks. Shops started closing down and locking up; families were heading home; the city was left up to the marines for another night of fun. I walked along the street with my two best friends, Private Miller, craziest man you’ll ever know with a gun; and Private West, the smartest you’ll ever know with a gun. Passing a prostitute on the road, Miller let out a huge whistle that echoed off the buildings all around the town for everyone to hear, making the women smile and she seemed to blush a little bit. “Damn this place is nice…. good looking women, good food, good bars…can’t think of anything better,†Miller said with a big grin on his face, still eying the prostitute behind us. “ I mean what could be better?†“Nothing, we just got here a month ago, ok? This month has been pretty calm so far, just like the rest of the boys said…best start worrying, this isn’t gonna last, my man.†I said as we continued to walk down the road. Looking around, most of the buildings around this part of town were two stories, lights on in most of them. Some of the locals were still wandering around the darkened streets but most of them had gone in to make way for the soldiers seeking fun…. and the way most of us thought, their idea of fun was to sit and talk to the family during the night. We had a different view. Name’s Steve, Steve Miller, Corporal of the USMC 1st Infantry Division. Bad boy of my platoon, me and me friends would always be hanging around this part of town, the pride of the war was here and I was hoping every day that we didn’t move out to start fighting. We approached this one bar that we hanged out at regularly, VuVu’s, full of marines on one-side and army guys on the other side. If you stayed long enough almost every night, you would see the craziest bar fights ever break out. Entering the bar we passed a few Asian chicks with their army pimps stroking their hair. “Damnit…she’s nice stuff…†Miller said as he eyed the one of the girls. “Save it, you know we have the better side,†I said, as we turned left. As soon as you walked in the door, there was a sign directly in front of you saying Marines on the top, with an arrow pointing left and Army on the bottom, pointing towards the left…Air Force, Navy, and all the other branches dared not enter this bar; it was too rough for them. We sat at a table in the far right corner of the left room. The bar smelled of vomit, liquor, and cigarette mix…it wasn’t pleasant but bearable. But we didn’t come for the smell; we came for the girls, good drinks, and for the talking. Finally the waitress – a nice looking Asian chick by the name Phoung--came to take our orders. “What you like today, Steve?†she said in a strong Asian accent…with a feminine touch. “I would like one of those Asian Zombies that you make, same with my two friends here,†I said. “That’s it?†she said raising an eyebrow, as if expecting more. “Yep, that’s it.†“You sure Forest…we might be able to add a…..appetizer of some short..,†Miller said looking up at the waitress. “Miller, lay off. Tonight we’re hear to drink and talk, not mess round." The waitress---now eying Miller with a sadistic look that was meant by an even more sadistic look from Miller---gave us a receipt, I took it, put the money with it, and then gave it back to her. Nine minutes later she came back with the drinks in hand. During that time West, Miller, and me talked about how Vietnam was so far. West had been here for about 9 months and had seen some action farther up north from here with the rest of the division. “I was in operation Hastings, Union I, and Union II. I survived all of that, some of the worst fighting I’ve ever been in. This is like the first few months that we actually have had some free time, but don’t expect to be staying around Saigon much longer. There is always something -, “ he said as he took a few sips of his drink,†– going down around Vietnam….so don’t get too comfortable here, I’ve seen you have been for the past month that you’ve been here, Steve.†I took a drink and swallowed, looking down at the ground, trying to get it down, and then I brought my head back up and looked at West. “I’ve enjoyed my stay here I guess you could say, it’s a nice place---so far so good. Wouldn’t you agree Miller?†As usual, Miller was scooping out the chicks and stealing them away from other Marines. Eying a girl who was on the lap of another Marine across the room, he flashed some money in front of his face and wiggled it about as he said, “Hell ya, its paradise….â€. Miller, as with me, had been here only a month. He’d already gained a reputation as the platoon pimp. He got up as the women---a thin, slender, Asian woman of considerable beauty and posture---came up to him. He handed over the money, he grabbed her hand, and they walked away….probably going to some local hotel. Eying Miller as he walked away he said, “That man is going to wake up to the real world mighty soon….†“Ya, I joined because I thought combat and being in the military would be all this big, fun, and exciting little adventure. So far, so good, eh? Lets make a toast….to the end of this war and no more fighting.†West looked away from Miller’s direction as he turned from view with his girl behind him, grabbed his glass as did I, raised it, “I’ll toast to that, most defiantly…to the end of this war!†Raising the glasses we clicked and drank the rest of our drinks down. Afterwards, we left a tip, got up and left the bar, heading back up the street to a checkpoint. Upon getting there, we did what we needed to do and went to bed. Thinking in my head what lay next, what fighting would really be like? How would I react to it? Would I be able to handle it? Would I be able to command troops if need be so? Would I do the right thing? These were all questions I’d have to find out sooner or later…. I’d rather get them out of mind, so I prefer sooner. But for now it was no use pondering over these questions of my abilities…I’d have to wait and see what would happen… __

Hey I live just 84 miles north of Seattle, in Bellingham, right under the watchful eye of Mt Baker..which i really hope erupts some day...tat would be tight! ~Bmg

Ya but imagine if Rainer blew! That would be so freakky...;.imagine if it blew half of it off like HELENS!! That would be so crazy!!!! I remember when i went to mc chord AF Base this summer, that thing is like right there....like 20 miles way...its so fricken big lookin in the distance...its weird... but ya, if rainer explodes go to Mcchord...

LOL Ok guys, we need to create some camels for the iraq mission eh?

U Dubb, University of Washington, has announced that Mt St Helens has had at least 4 earthquakes, all of them over 2 magnitude in size..........they said that it will probably be erupting very soon now... ~Bmg

Problem....i fired m16a2's just like the one you have in the second picture, the orange cap at the end needs holes my friend....

Just curious, that ak with a recoiless barrel ( saw it on tv ) is it possible to make here...in ofp? i know hte more modern Alpha teams use it, only some of the team uses it at least and some of the infrantry uses it....if u watch tv closely like the new you would have seen it being used a few times over the past few years with the war russia is raging although not a ton are used. ~Bmg

Ok...get this...lets just see if we can make a new rifle made by the army, brand new, recoiling barrel......but semi automatic... ~Bmg
