Subject: 5 Things You Didn’t Know about AK-47

***********************
***********************
 
 
Guns have always been a fascinating topic in America. From who’s using them to what model, make and brand they are, guns have become a staple in our modern society. Now, whether that’s a sad or thrilling fact, we’ve decided to let our readers in on some interesting facts about one of America’s most loved (and hated) assault rifles: the AK-47.
 
With a new book on the market entitled AK-47: The Story of the People’s Gun, Michael Hodges is an expert on this particular weapon, and we got Hodges to let us in on a few little-known facts about the AK-47 while researching his work.
 

1- The inventor of the AK-47 did not profit from the gun
 
Although by some estimates there are 100 million AK-47-style assault rifles in circulation around the world, the gun’s inventor, Mikhail Kalashnikov, did not become rich (unlike Eugene Stoner, the inventor of the American M16 assault rifle, who died a wealthy man). Communist states had no patents, and until its collapse in 1991, Kalashnikov was simply an employee of the Soviet Union. “I invented a weapon to save the motherland, to save the state from fascism,” he said. “My career has been dedicated to my country.”
 
Despite that country awarding him the Hero of Socialist Labor medal and many other accolades, this particular Socialist hero, who just happened to change the world, started life as an enemy of the Soviet Union. Kalashnikov narrowly escaped being shot by Stalin’s special police after his family was denounced as Kulaks in 1932, and exiled to Siberia. Kalashnikov escaped again when a Panzer shell blew him from his tank in 1941, as the Soviets fought desperately to halt the Nazi advance on Moscow.
 

2- The AK-47 is the perfect weapon for children
 
The AK-47 can be stripped in under a minute and cleaned quickly in almost any climatic condition. Even if it isn’t cleaned, an AK-47 is still more likely to fire than any of its rivals given similar treatment on the battlefield. With only eight moving parts the AK-47 is cheap to manufacture and easy to use — so easy in fact that children can be taught how to properly handle this weapon in a single hour. Sudanese child soldier Emmanuel Jal picked up his first AK-47 when he was 9 years old. A fully loaded AK-47 weighs four kilograms: “I don’t know how I lifted the AK when I was tired. It was so heavy,” he remembers. “We only had a few AKs but we weren’t scared, it was like a game with toy guns. When the fighting starts you can put the gun down and run away, or pull the trigger. Once you’ve done that you are hooked; it makes you think that no one can touch you. Once you’ve fired an AK-47 you become brave.”
 
 

3- America may have given bin Laden his first AK-47
 
Since 1998, Osama bin Laden has regularly included an AK-47 in the propaganda videos he releases after terrorist outrages. Consequently, the gun has come to represent the global jihad, and AK-47 is an integral part of the regime at fundamentalist camps, as far apart as the English home counties and the jungles of the Philippines.
 
These groups and their adherents are dedicated to the destruction of Israel and America — yet it is highly likely that it was Israel and America that inadvertently put an AK-47 into bin Laden’s hands. When the Israel Defense Forces invaded Lebanon in 1982 to “crush” the Palestinian Liberation Organization they captured thousands of AK-47s.These guns found their way, via the CIA and the Pakistani Inter-Service Intelligence Agency, to the Mujahadeen resisting the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan. It is probable that amongst them would have been the AK-47 that equips bin Laden.
 
 

4- The AK-47 is the U.S. army’s most resilient enemy
 
U.S. Forces first came into large-scale contact with the AK-47 during the Vietnam War. Their own M16s malfunctioned in the heat and damp of the jungle, but the Chinese-supplied AK-47s used by the communists continued to fire. Consequently, thousands of GIs picked up AK-47s from fallen Viet Cong guerrillas. This led Americans to open fire on their own side because they presumed the distinctive pop-pop-pop sound of an AK-47 revealed an enemy position. So many GIs threw away their guns in favor of AK-47s that a House of Representatives hearing in 1971 discovered that the U.S. Army attempted to stop the media reporting the phenomenon. Today, nearly 40 years later, in the sand and heat of Iraq, American soldiers are once again giving up their own U.S.-manufactured weapons in favor of the AK-47.
 
 

5- The AK-47 is the weapon of choice for U.S. Mass murderers
 
On January 17, 1989, Patrick Purdey walked into the Cleveland Elementary School in Stockton, California, armed with a Chinese-manufactured AK-47. It was fitted with a barrel magazine holding 75 rounds — both of which he bought legally over a gun-shop counter. When he walked out again five children were dead and 29 were injured. In December 1997, Arturo Reyes Torres entered his former place of work, the Caltrans Maintenance Yard, with an AK-47, killed four and wounded two. There are many more examples of AK-47 murders in the U.S. The online Urban Dictionary defines “Columbine” like so: “The constant bullying of the preppies and jocks has caused him to pick up his AK-47 and go Columbine on everyone.”
 
Ironically, the Columbine killers did not use AK-47s, but it doesn’t matter; in America gun crime is now perceived as AK crime.

All the metal parts of Lux Gold are gilded, the rods are made of stainless steel and the figurines can be painted in 12 different colors. This is pretty much how the company explains the $29,724 price-tag on this baby. The world’s largest foosball table is one of a kind and doesn’t even come close to that amount.

A US-based artist and photographer has become a cult web hit due to her massive archive of thousands of smiley faces discovered in the world around her
 
Her unique collection includes smiles in the wrinkle of a person's hand and...
 
 
...in the bark of a weathered log...
 
Ruth says 'It's all about taking a pause from the chaos of life to remember that every day we are surrounded by such incredible wonder...
 
...And every day we ignore this wonder as we live in our heads instead of in the moment that is passing us by'
 
Ruth's Facebook site for the Spontaneous Smiley Project now has over 2,700 followers, and she has even considered writing a cookbook about her food-based smileys

Subject: 10 Types of Women You Should Avoid (dating)

Send Email Send Email
 

***********************
***********************
The aim of this post is to point out the type of women you generally don't want a relationship with. Hopefully this post is just in time to save your life, time and money.
 
Loading images.......Please wait
 
1. Hippy chick
I like this type of girl but I'm sure some men won't, since hippy chicks are normally seen as 'out there'. However, I find the social difference rather cute and attractive - I'd love your opinion in the comments of whether or not this type of woman should be included or not.
 
 
2. Users
Aha! I'm sure you know of this type. The woman who approached you in a bar and smiles all lovingly so you buy her a drink - then you never see her again. Until of course you catch a glimpse of her later on doing the same thing to another man for another drink.

I call this type either 'users' or 'scammers' since it's basically what they are. They use what's called sexual currency to achieve what they want. Basically a lower form of prostitution - especially if they're doing it intentionally.

 

3. Gold Diggers
Everyone knows about this type! After the money you say? Spot on! You want to avoid gold diggers like the plague, especially if you're quite nifty on the income.

Best way to avoid these is to avoid talking about money or possessions altogether. Then you rule out the possibility she's interested in you because of your money. I'd say gold diggers are an extreme version of the users or scammers since their all after the same thing - money. Just gold diggers tend to be more greedy.

 

4. Drama Queen
This group of women used to really annoy me. The woman who stamps her feet because her boyfriend won't buy her another drink or her daddy won't spray paint her pony pink.

The best way to avoid this group is to find them hilarious. Even though I did find them extremely annoying at one time, now I can't help but laugh if I witness a drama session. Next time you're with an attention seeking drama queen - laugh. Watch as her face changes from 'brat' to confused almost instantly, it's hilarious.

 

5. Controller

This type loves to keep bundles of testicles in her pocket. Her most favourite bundle probably belongs to her husband or boyfriend who probably also has surprisingly distinct looking collar marks on his neck. I'm sure you've had an encounter with such a ferrous beast before and as long as you quickly exit the area your testicles will avoid the bundle.

According to studies, controlling women are the most likely to have facial hair. Figures huh? Anyway, the best way to avoid such a woman is to not allow her to control you. Stand your ground, be dominant and above all - be a man.

 

6. Dizzy
The dizzy group are very often stereotyped to be blonde. I have no idea why but let's go along with it. Anyway, the dizzy blonde group tend be forgetful, un-organised and generally 'slow'. Even though I think this group on it's own aren't particularly harmful - in the long enough time span I'm sure they could be.

If a gold digger and a dizzy blonde were dropped in a mixer, a  WAG will surely be created.

 

7. Tomboy / Guy Chick
Ever met a girl who can weight lift an elephant? Me either, but if there is such a woman - she's in this group. A tomboy is the British slang of a man-like-woman. A woman who enjoys the typically manly type of work and/or sport - which isn't bad, I'm all up for diversity but I find a Jean-vest-muscle-breast very unattractive.

The worst thing about it all is that this group of women could probably kick my arse. That alone should put them in the list of women to avoid for safety reasons.

 

8. Emotional (Emo)
Hmmm... Emo girls. Without being incredibly harsh, this type of woman tends to be completely unstable. Constantly looking for people to offload their problems onto so they can feel better about themselves. If you've ever gone out with an emotional girl I'm sure you know exactly what I mean. A very selfish woman who enjoys bringing people down to her level so she can have company in her self-created lonely world.

I have a slight annoyance with depressed/negative women and tend to avoid them completely. I only enjoy being around positive, fun and happy women - if you're the same, emotional women are a no go.

 

9. Femnazi
Avoid! Seriously. If you've never been harassed or physically molested by a 20 stone woman named Butch then you need to avoid this group of women, otherwise you'd better have Batman on speed dial.

A Femnazi is a dominant man hating women who goes out of her way to dominate and humiliate men. They often have deep emotional turmoil and enough hair to choke a giraffe. Not a woman you want to spend time with, unless you're also a femnazi - then maybe love is just around the corner.

 

10. Large, Ugly and Proud
What can I say? I don't think I say much more than the picture to be honest. Also, I don't know about you - but that picture actually scares me. I shall be checking dark corners of my room from now on.
 
 
Type of Woman you Want
I'd definitely say the best type of woman to go for is the cool girl or the 'stable girl'. I'm on about a woman who has all her shit together, no problems, no underlying issues that creates weird mannerisms but a simple sweet girl with high ambitions who knows what she wants in life and is out to get it while enjoying as much of life as possible.
