Al Qaeda terrorists may be plotting more urgently to attack the United States to maintain their credibility and ability to recruit followers, the U.S. military commander in charge of domestic defense said.Air Force Gen. Gene Renuart, chief of the U.S. Northern Command, also told reporters Thursday that he has not seen any direct threats tied to the U.S. presidential elections. But he said it would be rash to think that such threa
stanley cup ts are not there. We need only to look at Spain and see that they re certainly willing to try to do something that is significant that could affect an election process, Renuart said. I think it would be imprudent of us to let down our guard believing that if there s no credible threat that you know of today, there won t be something tomorrow. While he said that U.S. authorities
stanley cup have thwarted attacks on a number of occasions, he said terrorist cells may be working harder than ever to plot high-impact events. He did not point to any specific intelligence that authorities have received but said the chatter they are hearing gives me no reason to believe they re going to slow down in their efforts to target the U.S. If an organization like that is to maintain credibility and continue to grow more of its extremists, it has to show tangible results, Renuart said. So I think there may be a certain sense of urgency among that organization to have an effect. So it would tell me that they re trying harder.

In 1956, Astounding Science Fiction gushed about the wonders of a reactionless space drive invented in 1956 by Norman L. Dean. It could propel a converted atomic submarine into space, editor John W. Campbell wrote. He added, The modern nuclear submarine is, in fact, a fully competent space-vehicle . . . lacking only the Dean Drive. He chose a submarine of the Skate class for his thought experiment. With the reactionless space drive, the submarine would lift off the earth at a constant 1 g acceleration, which could

In flight, Campbell wrote, the ship will simply lift out of the sea, rise vertically, maintaining a constant 1,000 cm/sec/sec drive. Halfway to Mars, it would loop its course, and decelerate the rest of the
stanley botella way at the same rate. In adapting the submarine to space duty, he said. There is one factor that has to be taken into account, however; the exhaust steam from the turbine has to be recondensed and returned to the boiler. In the sea, sea water is used to cool the condenser; in space no cooling water is available. A huge bag-like balloon would be attached to the spaceship, silvered on one side, painted black on the other, and of what
