I think it looks alright. The new Total Recall was great, and I've heard good things about Dredd, so it's possible...

Strange plane enters St. Louis air space
Saw an E-6 doing pattern work at Idaho Falls during my drive up when I was PCSing here...thought it an odd location to pick out for some touch and goes.

C-17 lands short at Dover
Guessing that's at FJDG? Hey at least salty corrosive air won't be a problem while they fix it... Did they ever get that B-1 out of Guam? The one that was in the hangar with the tail sticking out a couple years?

FY 14 Force Management Program (RIF, VSP, TERA)
Unless you have a big in into the agency, expect a lengthy delay in getting hired by the FAA once separated from the AF. Hiring freeze in effect at the moment due to sequestration, and without any freezes in place at my time it took almost two years to get processed and hired. Best of luck tho and hit me if you have any questions.

SCOTUS scraps DOMA
No emotion, just think this is pretty clear cut. It's nothing like a concealed carriage permit, which is explicitly for only one state with limited reciprocity. I ran into this - my marriage is by Contract, allowed by my home state's law. No marriage certificate, just the original notarized and signed contract in a safe. Moved to Hawaii years back and my wife, while getting her driver's license ran into some issues - they were originally considering our marriage as a common law marriage, which surprisingly Hawaii doesn't go for (the conservative/liberal divide in Hawaii is really interesting). However upon some research on their part they found that it was indeed legal in the original state of issuance and honored it as such. I can see where states can say they won't issue same sex licenses (or contracts if they do that), but can't see how they won't honor licenses issued in other states. Don't see the precedent.

SCOTUS scraps DOMA
But it works for fucking marriage licenses. You guys are being ridiculous here. So who among us here has had their marriage declared null and void just because the state you're stationed in doesn't do things exactly like the state of your residency, or where your marriage was executed? It hasn't happened.

SCOTUS scraps DOMA
Marriage licenses granted in one state aren't exactly null and void in another state that doesn't issue them in the same way. Get it issued where it's legal, it's good to go everywhere else.

National Air Cargo 747 Crash at Bagram
It also helps to not overload the cargo floor rating by spreading the load for a vehicle that primarily gets is suspension from its tires - no suspension to compress, all the load goes to the points on the cargo floor that the tires contact. Sleeper helps spread that.

@HeloDude, yeah saw all that, zero serial #'s involved. Wonder why he was lugging around the extra upper receiver. Plus 1300 rds of ammo...not easy to walk with that...

Gun Talk
Yeah, good luck with that. I hope you're right, but I think this is going to get more traction than you think. This wasn't the normal gang or robbery violence and the dude was walking with 31 mags and a spare upper receiver. Expect this to get trumpeted loudly, the only thing missing is the school filled with dead kids. Not for lack of the shooters effort...

Shooting in Santa Monica CA involving an AR-15 yesterday (Jun 7th). Guess a tactical'd out, black-clad guy with the AR shot two people in a house, lit it on fire, then went on a spree afterwards. Killed at least two or three others, then cops killed him at the Santa Monica College campus. Blowback will be interesting. CA has all assault rifle owners register, plus Frankenfeinstein lead the charge on the AWB. Could affect prices again.
