I've never really had a problem with the lids. The lids are sealed quite well when they first put it on, but when you take it off and put it back on yourself that's when the leaking happens. |

It be good to study all these new 'party drugs' to see what they actually contain and educate the people with their findings. |

Now if only that can happen with World Of Tanks. |

Mr Cameron warned in a speech that access to online pornography was "corroding childhood".
At least the kids won't be corroded by their CoD games. |

Spring is finally staying where I am. Took forever for the frost to thaw out, and with the near constant rain in April the water kept getting into the basement storage room, but we kept on top of it. Now that May is very warm, the frozen ground is completely thawed out and the water is no longer a p... |

F-35 has internal Bays! No stealth issues with artic pods. Just less firepower. How much less firepower? According to LM the current number of weapons the internal weapons bays can carry is two per bay. The company has mentioned that the future Block 5 jets will be able to carry three per bay (or f... |

F-35 vs. F/A-18 SH? Since both are primarily bomb trucks it be cool to see what their air combat capabilities are. |

The article was a good read. Seems that the CF will be heading down the same road it had with Chretien and the Libs back in the 90s. However, I am a little confused with the article when it came to not having any "mission" and troops being "bored". I remember top brass at DNDHQ c... |

With all the fuck-ups, bribery, glad-handing, and good ol-boyism going on in various military procurement departments around the NATO countries it'd be funny if the F22 ended up costing less than the F35 will. That would be sad, not funny... Honestly, I'm not sure which would one is the bigger/sadd... |

I wouldn't be surprised if the Liaoning does stay as a training ship, especially when one considers their navy's future goals. The Chinese are fully commited to building their own carriers, and construction is set to begin early 2013. Once the first carrier is finished and launched, the PLAN would a... |

I also enjoyed Skyline, especially the ending. Humanity lost the war, no super duper secret weapon, no virus bomb, no military comeback, we just lost. Now that is a peice of originality we haven't seen in I can't remember how long. Xerxes does have a point. Changing the invasion premise for the new ... |

North Korea? Really? They should've kept it as the Chinese, it would make the premise more plausible.
Battle:LA shows how an alien invasion film is properly done. |

Recce and armed drones would be really good for arctic and over ocean patrols. In a ground support situation they would be invaluable thanks to their very long loiter times. A Reaper fully loaded with weapons can loiter for 12hrs, put a pair of external fuel tanks and it can loiter for almost 48hrs. |
