[Regnum] Five adults and one child were injured in a shooting at a Mardi Gras parade in the US state of Louisiana on January 31, the New York Post tabloid reported
The shooting occurred in front of the East Feliciana County Courthouse in Clinton. The child victim is in critical condition.
Local authorities reported that one suspect has been detained and a search is underway for a vehicle connected to the shooting.
Fox News has photos of innocent bystanders running from the gunfire and mourning the fallen.
[EarthquakeTrack] Malmstrom AFB is the largest of three US Air Force Bases that maintain and operate the Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile. It is the home of the 341st Missile Wing (341 MW) of the Air Force Global Strike Command (AFGSC).
[Bearing Arms] I recently made a video talking about how I love everything retro. I was addressing a re-release of an older model gun in celebration of its 50th anniversary and how sometimes timeless classics don’t need to change much to maintain relevance or performance. However, for the firearms consumer industry, “if it works, don’t change it” is not a common occurrence. Most of the time, improvements, re-innovation or improvements based on more modern materials or production techniques make something good even better. After all, this is why SHOT SHOW happens annually.
Unfortunately, when it comes to innovation in the firearms industry, it can be a challenge. There’s not much that can be done to “reinvent the wheel” so to speak.
Small tweaks, fancier grip textures, caliber swap, color anodizing anything, cool if that is what you are in the market for, but these aren’t innovations, and certainly not “game changing.” Fortunately, every so often, something comes along that makes a firearm enthusiast say, “whoa, that’s brilliant” and this year Magpul certainly came though. The manufacturer known for changing the rifle magazine game has now changed the storage game with the release of their “DAKA Universal GRID Organizer”, or as I like to call it, “tactical legos.”
According to Magpul, “The DAKA Universal GRID Organizer – Rifle brings Magpul’s innovative GRID organization and protection system to virtually any hard case. Built from lightweight, crush-resistant Expanded Polypropylene (EPP), the Universal GRID offers fully customizable, cut-to-fit Panels and Blocks that secure rifles, optics, and gear with precision. Each panel features pre-marked cut lines for easy shaping and serrated undersides to channel included DAKA Gear Straps, ensuring your loadout stays locked down even when your case doesn’t. Unlike open-cell foam, the GRID resists water, oil, and chemical absorption—keeping your equipment protected, organized, and mission-ready anywhere you go.”

I concur w Skid, from your 2A toys, to valuable tech gear, grand products. Can testify to their grand flashlights as well, guaranteed for life except for three things, “bears, sharks, and children under the age of three”.

[BBC] Elon Musk's SpaceX has applied to launch one million satellites into Earth's orbit to power artificial intelligence (AI).
The application claims "orbital data centres" are the most cost and energy-efficient way to meet the growing demand for AI computing power.
Traditionally, such centres are large warehouses full of powerful computers which process and store data. Musk's aerospace firm claims processing needs due to the expanding use of AI are already outpacing "terrestrial capabilities".
It would increase the number of SpaceX satellites in orbit drastically. Its existing Starlink network of nearly 10,000 satellites has already been accused of creating congestion in space, which Musk denies.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing

over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
