Navy Tests Incredible Sci-Fi Weapon
The U.S. Navy yesterday
test fired an incredibly powerful new big gun designed to replace conventional
weaponry aboard ships. Sci-fi fans will recognize its awesome power and
futuristic technology.
The big gun uses electromagnetic energy instead of explosive chemical
propellants to fire a projectile farther and faster.
The railgun, as it is called, will ultimately fire a projectile more than 230
miles (370 kilometers) with a muzzle velocity seven times the speed of sound
(Mach 7) and a velocity of Mach 5 at impact.

Hi Lisa, I
enjoy your site and have donated in the past.
That being said I hope to educate you on one fact.
Yes, Georgie and co. lied to everyone about their agenda ,but perceptive people
saw right through these lies.
And so was born the anti-war movement.
We all knew it....she did too......Thanks ....D
I'm educated on facts and believe that Hillary will bring the troops home. And so will Obama. May the best human win! Thanks for writing.

Don't Republicans Want A Smaller Government?
President Bush wants to hire nearly 1,100 new diplomats to address severe staffing shortages and put the State Department on track to meet an ambitious call to double its size over the next decade.
Barack and Hillary would indeed make Thee Dream Team. No one could beat 'em. Now, who's gonna break it to Hillary that's she's the VP? - Grant Gerver, www.seriouskidding.com

Lisa,
Thank you for always posting great cartoons, comments, and articles about all
the Republican shenanigans. Its good to be able to laugh at the mess we’re in.
After reading the hate mail you’ve been getting for supporting Hillary and the
Clintons, I just had to write in and let you know that there are plenty of us
who support you and what you are doing. Keep poking fun at all sides of the
debate. I’m an avid Obama supporter, but that doesn’t mean I can’t laugh at
gaffs made by either him or Hillary. (Although I’d ALWAYS rather have a laugh at
the expense of the Republicans.)
Good luck with the fund raising,
Van
Thanks for writing, Van. The Republicans are so easy to laugh at, aren't they? I mean who in the Democratic party can top Larry Craig? Pun intended.
And who in the Republican party can match Hillary and Obama?
Well, one thing is for sure, if Hillary gets the nomination the GOP will play the gender card and if Obama gets the nomination they'll play the race card. And if McCain wins his party's nomination, the Dems will play the elderly card!
Thanks so much for being a loyal fan of AHNC. Deep curtsey.

French Leader and Ex-Model Wed in Quiet Ceremony New York Times
Muslim women have a new - and warmer - alternative to their traditional hijabs as temperatures drop in Canada this winter. A young entrepreneur from Ottawa has designed fashionable head covers, made from water-resistant nylon and lined with fleece, which can be worn alone or over a traditional hijab. The toasty hijabs are the brainchild of Abeer Al-Azzawi, a 24-year-old graduate student who got into design because of a gap she saw in the clothing market for young women. Photo/Queendom Hijab
