Naples, Italy (July 10, 2004) -- Evacuated families board their flight for home as Rear Adm. Daniel S. Mastagni, Vice Commander Navy Region Europe provides some words of encouragement to some of the children boarding the aircraft. Mastagni spoke with many of the family members during their brief stay at Naval Support Activity, Naples, Italy. Families received a formal departure order on Sunday, July 4th, and are expected to return to the United States through the Norfolk Naval Base in Virginia. The Pentagon, following credible information that extremists were planning attacks in Bahrain, ordered the temporary evacuation of families of Sailors, Marines, and other military personnel.

HERAT, AFGHANISTAN: TO GO WITH AFGHANISTAN-DISARM Afghan men stand in line as they wait to be disarmed by the Disarmament, Demobilisation and Re-integration programme (DDR) in Herat, 11 July 2004. 2,000 ex-mujahedin fighters laid down their weapons in the western Afghan city as part of a disarmament drive in a country facing renewed violence ahead of its first post-Taliban polls. In Herat, over 40 percent of 6,000 men loyal to powerful regional warlord Ismail Khan will be disarmed before the October 2004, vote according to the DDR. According to UN figures some 10,360 Afghan troops have now been disarmed, short of the target of 40,000 troops and the pre-poll removal of heavy weapons from private hands set when President Hamid Karzai launched the project in May 2004.

MADRID, Spain (CNN) -- Eight people, including an American and a Frenchman, have been gored on the sixth day of the annual running of the bulls in Pamplona, Spain.

The American, a 26-year-old from New York who provided the initials M.S., but no name, was gored in the left thigh on the section of the course at city hall plaza on Monday.

The Frenchman, Ludovico de Carlos Garcia, 24, was gored in the right knee on the uphill Santo Domingo section at the beginning of the 800-meter (half-mile) course, soon after the six bulls were released from the corral.

Five of the other six people gored were Spaniards, including three from the Pamplona area.

The identity of the eighth person was not immediately available, a Navarra regional government spokesman told CNN.

One of the Spaniards, Julen Madina from Guipuzcoa Province in the Basque region near Pamplona, was gored five times in the entryway to the bull ring, where a group of runners had fallen into a pile and were attacked by one of the bulls.

Madina was in serious condition, the spokesman said.

Spanish state television's live broadcast of the running and play-by-play announcer Javier Solano described but did not name Madina, and said he was a veteran participant in the annual run.

In addition to the eight people gored, 10 others were injured Monday by falls or stampedes and taken to a hospital.

Among them was an American identified in a government statement as 50-year-old New Yorker Brian White, who suffered a shoulder injury. He was treated and released from the hospital, a Navarra government statement said.

Forty-nine runners, including 15 who were gored and the rest with injuries due to falls or stampeding, have been taken to hospitals since the event began July 7.

The 49 include eight Americans, an Australian, a Frenchman, a South African, someone from Portugal and numerous Spaniards. The run ends July 14.

Pamplona official pamphlets on how to run with the bulls advise runners who fall down to stay on the ground, curl into a small position, and remain still, because the bulls will instinctively try to step over them.

State television's Solano, criticized one of the Spanish runners who was injured Friday, saying he had made a mistake by trying to get up.

On Friday, an American from Louisiana was gored in the left knee on Mercaderes Street.

Another American, from Georgia, was gored in the scrotum, in the bullring, in what the government spokesman said was a "slight injury."

More than a dozen runners have been killed since early last century, when record keeping began.

The last death that occurred during or immediately after the run came in 1995, when a 22-year-old American was killed by one of the bulls.

The running of the bulls in Pamplona started 400 years ago and became popular worldwide after Ernest Hemingway wrote about it in the 1920s.

And AFAIK the UMP is not better than the MP5 - just cheaper.

OAK RIDGE, UNITED STATES: Jon Kreykes (R) shows US President George W. Bush (L) material and equipment surrendered by Libya during a tour 12 July 2004 of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, a US Department of Energy site in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. Bush insisted 12 July 2004 the war on Iraq was justified despite the failure to find stockpiles of weapons of mass destruction. "Although we have not found stockpiles of weapons of mass destruction, we were right to go into Iraq," he said after touring a facility that houses nuclear materials recently handed over by Libya.

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) previously concluded that similar Ultra-High Grade Aluminum components procured by Iraq were probably intended for unguided rockets in lieu of charges that low enriched uranium in the form of approximately 1.8 tons of 2.6 per cent Uranium-235 'yellowcake' were to be reprocessed to weapons grade materials.

Typhoon are rank as outsider. F15 rather old design and does not offer attractive offset. Rafale offer the best offset.

Rafale vs F-15. The decision was postponed several times because of changes in the Request For Proposal. It is considered here as the last chance to export the Rafale. That is why the Singapourian are getting so much attention from the French Governement. Speaking of current events (xenophobia) the families are very much integrated within the Cazaux AFB residential area (the surroundings are very similar to Eglin AFB) and they are mostly very happy to be in France. Seeing A-4S / TA-4U* is very cool because they usually log many hours. Mass take off with a dozen aircrafts within a few minutes is not seldom. They handle the plane very aggressively in the pattern which is a joy to see for aviation freaks :D

* the Singapourian Skyhawks are A-4s reengined with the GE-404 (same as the F-18 family), improved avionics (they are wired to launch GBUs) and cockpit display. But they are going to be retired very soon (I think they only fly in France now) and replaced by more F-16s.

It is an "E" model. Hugues Aircraft built the earlier version (Light Observation Helicopter LOH-6 or "LOACH") in the mid-60s. In 1984, the company merged into Mc Donnel Douglas and became one year later MD Helicopter Company. Thus the MD prefix since that date. Then the company gave up and for a few years now, there is the New MD (IIRC this is a Dutch originated company) supporting the existing fleet of MD 500 and NOTAR...

I think he is checking him (and the strip search is the best way to find out) , and he is photographing him as a part of standart procedure .

A masked member of the Ulster Freedom Fighters (UFF), displays a submachine gun at a bonfire on the Westland estate in north Belfast which was one of hundreds alight Monday, July 12, 2004, ahead of the biggest day in the Northern Ireland marching season. Thousands of Orangemen and bands will be parading across the province to celebrate the victory of the Protestant King William of Orange over the Catholic King James at the battle of the Boyne in 1690.

Even though he's a Loyalist, he's still a terrorist!

Someone really ought to point out to this idiot that there really isn't a lot of desert in Belfast. Cammo wise I reckon he sticks out like the bollocks on a pit-bull in that rig-out.

He's probably wearing it to seem more militant. Maybe he can't get a set of regular camo BDUs?

Actually, I think the guy on the right does carry an UMP (look at the magazine).
