MIAMI, Nov. 30 (UPI) -- Four men were arrested Friday in the fatal shooting of Washington Redskins safety Sean Taylor and a police official said they would be charged with murder. Taylor was shot early Monday in the bedroom of his Palmetto Bay, Fla., home. The bullet struck Taylor in the groin, severing his femoral artery and causing a massive loss of blood. He died early Tuesday in a Miami hospital. Robert Parker, director of the Miami-Dade County Police Department, named those arrested as Venjah Hunte, Jason Mitchell, Charles Wardlow and Eric Rivera Jr. They were between the ages of 17 and 20. "We had pretty conclusive tips of information as to who the involved parties were," Parker said. "Who cares what they went there to do. They're re going to be charged with murder." Taylor was the fifth overall pick of the 2004 NFL Draft and he made the Pro Bowl for the first time last season.

DEFINITION MUSCLE CAR : internet search, (chrysler300country.com),click on, full table of contents, scroll down, click on muscle cars, under picture click continue, then read the total article. It is amazing how confused people are on the term muscle car. Superchargers, three two barrel carbs, two four barrel carbs, big engines, were used on many pre 1964 vehicles but in low numbers or non affordable to the general population. Nitrous was around well before 1964. Lots of race type engines could be purchased in a vehicle but basically only a professional racer could aquire one. For example Pontiac put lots of 389's their Pontiacs in 1959, is this a muscle car? No. Pontiac developed a S.D.421 engine in 1961 only for race cars, not their production cars. The four barrel was used for oval track racing (professional), and the two barrel version for drag racing (professional).

Brooks Global-Lok Sets a New Quality Standard in Security Seals
LIVINGSTON, N.J., Nov. 12 /PRNewswire/ -- Over the past two years, E.J. Brooks has been conducting market research as part of its new product development initiative to further improve the performance and feature levels of mechanical cable seals that are used in cross border and intermodal use around the world. Being the only security seal manufacturer that is a validated member of C-TPAT as well as a strong believer in independent testing by a third party ISO 17712 accredited lab, global compliancy is Brooks number one objective. However, the logistics community raised other issues that were considered in product design and we are now announcing a breakthrough in mechanical cross border security seal protection. E.J. Brooks is proud to announce the introduction of the Global-Lok, a high security cable seal that is not only ISO 17712 compliant, but exceeds the ISO 17712 required minimum tensile strength level by 82% with over 4,000 lbs of pressure necessary to pull it apart.
Half of Scots see Muslims as 'cultural threat' in wake of terrorist ...
Having already experienced the attack on Glasgow airport where even doctors were involved the awful truth is that people just don't know who to trust. Of course this is probably part of the Militant Islamic strategy. The greater the mistrust they can create the more they can say that we nasty Westerners are haters of anything Islamic then they can create more convertees to "the cause". Militant Islam is thoroughly evil and misguided. Osama Saeed is right though. Scotland is probably the most likely place that could put these issue aside because are naturally a tolerant people. The danger is though that one more major attack anywhere in the UK and that opportunity could be lost overnight. It's on a knife edge and if it goes the wrong way then we'll all be the loosers Muslims and none Muslims alike.
Wolf Pack can't win WAC without help Closing sweep is first task for ...
UNR's quest to win its fifth straight Western Athletic Conference regular-season title is alive. But the Wolf Pack is going to need plenty of help. UNR, 17-10 overall, is third in the WAC at 9-4, a game behind first-place Boise State and a half-game behind second-place New Mexico State. The Wolf Pack's final push begins Thursday when its hosts New Mexico State. Saturday is the final regular-season home game, against last-place Louisiana Tech, and the regular season closes March 8 at Fresno State. To win the conference, UNR probably needs to sweep its final three games and hope Boise State loses two of its last three. The Broncos (10-3) are at San Jose State and Hawaii this week, and no WAC team has swept that trip this season. Boise State ends the season at home against Utah State.
