I saw a bloom of what appeared to be blue smoke, and felt metal fragments pepper the left side of my face. I had fired approximately 4-5 rounds, with no noticeable change in report (semi-rapid fire), when the Colt just blew out of my hands. I loaded a magazine (Brownells brand Metalform) with a mixture of the Freedoms FMJ and HP, and began shooting again. I had approximately 350 rounds downrange as of that morning. If someone else runs that ammo without issue then your rifle needs some inspection.Last week, on, I had been shooting the new Colt, which had been performing flawlessly with the ammo to that point. A bad magazine with weak springs can allow the round to strike lower on the feedramps as well, but this is typically a problem with heavier grain ammo as it is "front heavy" as the spring tries to push the new round to the top of the magazine stack. Since others haven't had the same problem as you and they have used a mix of the manufacturers ammo, you should look at your rifle closely as well.Ī rifle with a magazine catch milled too low can start the round lower on the feedramps than normal. So needless to say I don't trust neck tension alone on my reloaded range pick up brass so every single bullet gets a factory crimp from my Lee die. So much that I notice with my press that the stroke was too light compared to the last round. I have reloaded many cases which have allowed me to seat the bullet easily. I just don't know what kind of QC freedom has. Yet the case may have expanded enough to have a loose primer pocket and possibly the neck tension is low. I can reload a case a few times and send it to them as part of their brass credit program and they will likely reload it. The variability of the brass they receive leads me to believe they may have a large variance in case neck tension between individual rounds. Everyone is welcome to weigh the risks with their own budget, but I personally will not be purchasing any more ammunition from Freedom Munitions. TL DR: Freedom Munitions ammo has better-than-expected accuracy, but very high rate of failure/malfunction in relation to other ammunition shot through my particular AR. If anyone has any insights into the matter, please share! I'm not terribly experienced and I'm not sure what I should be expecting or whether my AR is more prone to malfunctions, but Freedom Munition reman ammo still has a significantly higher rate of failure. Not bad.Īs a rough reference point, my rifle has had 1 malfunction using Wolf Gold per 200 rounds (based off of three, 200-round sessions) My rifle, under more capable hands and with better ammo, is capable of firing 1 inch groups or less. Aside from these, however, the ammo shoots about 1.5 inch groups out of my. 2 rounds were found from the box with loose bullets.Īdditionally, there were several shots that fell short of the target or were insanely off-target (even adjusting for my bad shooting). In one instance the case was severely dented (I believe by the bolt) and is pictured. There were 7 malfunctions, 2 of which resulted in the two bullets shown here pushed into the case. This picture above is part of the result of my most recent, 200 round session. The first session had about 5 malfunctions of the same type, but I did not document them. I have shot two, 200-round sessions using this ammo. I bought 500 rounds of Freedom Munitions re-manufactured.

Sometimes we took the baby down to the beach, even on cold days when nobody was out we’d dig our toes in the sand and walk up and down the beach : we loved it.Ĭrystal Zevon will be signing I’ll Sleep When I’m Dead at Borders Books on State Street, June 13 at 7 p.m. We decided to move to Santa Barbara when he opened for the Grateful Dead. You two lived in Santa Barbara for a while do any memories stand out? Oh yes. After he finished the album, he said, “Now I have to hurry up and die, so they can nominate me for a Grammy.” He didn’t believe they’d ever do it if he was alive, and he was right he got two Grammys posthumously. He always believed people would discover him after he died. Do you think he’d see any irony in the re-releases of his music, the interest in this book, now that he’s gone? Definitely. Warren was never hugely successful-commercially or financially, anyway. He got sober shortly before he died, and managed to be there for the births of his grandsons, and make peace with himself and the people around him. He felt he’d done his job for whatever legacy he was going to have, and made his family his priority. After the album was finished, he reprioritized. It seemed like he got a handle on it by the time he passed away, though. Nobody wants to go down with one of those awful diseases where you don’t make sense anymore, but he says it with that little twist of phrase that’s for everybody.Īfter he got sick and started drinking again after 17 years of sobriety, what did you think? It broke my heart. Like on the Life’ll Kill Ya album, the song that closes, “Don’t let us get sick / Don’t let us get old / Don’t let us get stupid, all right?” It’s so simple. Some of what he wrote requires a certain perspective that might be a little skewed from your average Joe, but I also think his songs are very accessible. There’s a great quote from Bonnie Raitt: “We had to be truly twisted to get Warren, and I mean that in a good way.” Do you agree? (Laughs) Well, yes and no. Later, he compartmentalized, so people saw different sides of him, which was another reason for the book’s format, so different people could talk about those different sides. He’d let himself be exposed to me when we were young, vulnerable, and open. But somewhere along the way, it hit me that I wasn’t really surprised, and that that was why Warren asked me to write the book. Were you shocked by anything you uncovered? The degree of excess, the degree of torment, the degree of obsession, and how many women-I didn’t know the extent of it. I felt his story would be better told-and more interesting, honestly-if it was told by all these people. I wasn’t comfortable analyzing or interpreting his thoughts or feelings or reasons for doing something. But when I was alone with the journals, it was gut-wrenching sometimes.ĭid you originally envision the book taking the format it did, or did that come about organically? Very early on, I imagined it as an oral history told through the voices of lots of people, including his journals. Doing the interviews was generally really fun. The good times were sometimes more painful, because with the bad times I could say, “Well, we moved beyond that,” but the good times were once-in-a-lifetime experiences. What was it like reliving your relationship through Warren’s journals? It was cathartic, though part of me resisted going back. And it wasn’t only exposing him, but me, my family, and other people. “That’s the excitable boy that wrote them excitable songs,” is how he put it. I worried, because he asked me to tell the truth-even the awful, ugly parts. I talked to Warren about it he just shrugged it off. Were you worried about how the book might be received, given that you’re his ex-wife? Yeah. Crystal ZevonĬrystal Zevon spoke with me recently about the book. The result leaves the reader stunned, and scrambling to find that Zevon CD that’s probably still lurking somewhere on the shelf. Before his 2003 death, Warren extracted from Crystal a promise: to expose the sweet and sordid truth of the “Excitable Boy,” in all its drug-, alcohol-, and sex-soaked glory. Through interviews with the likes of Bruce Springsteen, Jackson Browne, Stephen King, Billy Bob Thornton, and Carl Hiaasen, as well as Zevon’s children, the many (many, many) women he loved, and his own journals, we get an intimate, oftentimes unbelievable glimpse of this witty, dangerous, and dirty talent. In I’ll Sleep When I’m Dead: The Dirty Life and Times of Warren Zevon, Zevon’s ex-wife Crystal offers an uncensored look at the tumultuous life of one of rock ‘n’ roll’s quintessential wild men. When groups are able to branch out and try different styles, it can be a hit or a miss, but CRAVITY is a group that can easily adapt. The group itself has only recently started to take on this lighter and bouncy sound and it works for them. The sound takes one back to the early days of boy groups like SEVENTEEN’s “Mansae’’ and Astro’s “Crazy Sexy Cool.”īoy groups these days have embraced a darker sound and concept so “Party Rock’’ works to break that pattern. This song can easily be described as light and refreshing. Fortunately, the B-side on the EP, “COOL (Your rainbow)” perfectly showcases NMIXX’s vocals which their title tracks usually cannot. Overall, “Dice” seems like another attempt of K-Pop dabbling in noise music that did not quite hit the mark. There is a jazzy introduction, carnival-inspired sound and a lot of noise. Most NMIXX songs take a couple of listens to comprehend and be appreciated, and while “Dice” fits into that mold, it is definitely a confusing song. It is impossible to describe the song as a singular sound, rather it is a jumbled combination that seems like it was haphazardly mixed together in production. Since their debut, their sound has been big and bombastic, and the same can be said for the group’s latest title track, “Dice,” from the EP “ENTWURF.” NMIXX is JYP’s newest breakout girl group that has become famous for their extremely powerful vocals, sound and choreography. The near two-year-long wait may have overhyped expectations, but “Shut Down” is a good and catchy addition in BLACKPINK’s short discography. While the lyrics are a bit weak, the song is a pretty good title track in BLACKPINK standards and does not get tiring after multiple listens. The majority of the lyrics are in English, which could represent the group trying to establish themselves more in the global market. The actual title track, “Shut Down,” went in a very different direction by sampling classical music with a heavy emphasis on a violin instrumental and adding a modern hip-hop beat. The song switches up in rhythm a few times, going from traditional drum beats to then focusing on vocals and then switching back. The B-side, “Pink Venom,” was released before the album, and seemed like a good contender for the title track with a catchy chorus, iconic and edgy BLACKPINK sound, and interesting choreography. Their most recent album, “Born Pink,” comes after nearly two years of no new music.įans of the group, also known as “Blinks” are fairly used to this long hiatus between comebacks, but it is unclear if “Born Pink” was worth the wait. BLACKPINK is the it-girl group of the K-Pop world and has quickly become a global phenomenon since their debut in 2016. The estimated death in the New World caused by these foreign diseases accounted for about 80-95% mortality in the Amerindian population. Incas and other subgroups were badly affected. The Spaniards brought with them diseases such as measles, smallpox, and yellow fever which devastated the native Indian populations of the New World. Malaria was a huge problem bugging Europeans in the Old World for a long time, but after the discovery of quinine from South America, relief was not far away. Although at first there was some resistance to Christianity, the natives were won over by the gifts of horse and rifles which helped them in their daily quest for food. It also helped in closing the gap in trading with the natives. Language transfer was closely linked to the Amerindians' acceptance of Christianity. The European belief that they were superior to the natives was first and foremost in their minds. The first conversion to Christianity of the Amerindians was under Columbus' direction. The introduced species also became hazard to the local animal species. Conversely, dogs and pigs became pests as they rooted out the small vegetable plots of the American natives. Some of these animals like the horse altered the history of many native Indian tribes. Soon cargo ships were loaded with donkeys, mules, goats, chickens, large dogs, cats, pigs, cattle, horses, bees, and sheep. The Spaniards brought along with them their livestock as well as domesticated pets to the New World. Rubber trees were also introduced to Africa. Other produce from Africa and Asia also reached the Americas such as coffee, sugar cane, chocolate, oranges, bananas, paprika, and pineapples. Asia also received new vegetables from the New World such as chili and potatoes. Some of these are potatoes, tomatoes, and maize. The natives served as mine laborers and plantation workers under the control of their European masters.Ĭolumbus took many crops and wild plants from the New World and brought them to Europe. During his years in the New World, Columbus began propagating his policies of forced labor using the indigenous Americans for reaping profit. He originally started enslaving native peoples in the West Indies. When Columbus saw how easily they could be enslaved he wasted no time in the process. Most of the Americas in the 15th century were exclusively populated by Indian indigenous peoples. It was also utilized by the Spanish monarchy to pay off their debts and became the standard currency used in buying goods from other nations. Gold was sent back to Spain and used as decorations inside churches and cathedrals. The 350 years of Spanish military control of the New World produced so much gold and silver and other precious gems that it made Spain a major European power. He landed on an island he named San Salvador for Spain which he soon left to explore more of the New World. His original aim was to sail to the West Indies using a new route and instead he found the Americas which he named after Amerigo Vespucci, the Italian cartographer. November 15, 2016.Christopher Columbus, Italian navigator, and explorer first made landfall in the New World on October 12, 1492.

Many high-rollers waited out on the sidewalks in front of the Aladdin for hours. This left thousands of Aladdin visitors leaving in disappointment, as well as opening night hotel guests wondering where they'd spend the night. Another delay was caused by last-minute repairs to the casino surveillance system. The opening was delayed while the Clark County building inspector completed its fire safety testing. The new Aladdin was scheduled to open on August 17, 2000, at 6:00 p.m., with fireworks at 10:00 p.m. LCI initially paid $50 million for a 25% interest, but took on additional equity after Sommer was unable to fund his share of cost overruns on the construction. Sommer took on London Clubs International as a partner in developing the new casino resort. The new Aladdin in 2005 before being rebranded as Planet Hollywood later in 2007 The Aladdin Theatre was retained and incorporated into the new resort. On April 27, 1998, the original Aladdin hotel tower was imploded to make way for construction of the new Aladdin resort. The cost of the new Aladdin complex would total $1.3 billion, although the music project was cancelled at the end of the year after Aladdin Gaming ended its partnership with Planet Hollywood, because of concerns that Planet Hollywood could not produce a $41 million commitment to the project. In February 1998, Aladdin Gaming announced that it had financed plans for a new Aladdin resort, expected to cost $826 million, while Planet Hollywood would develop a music-themed resort, tentatively known as Aladdin Music Project, which would be built behind the Aladdin. In 1994, the Aladdin was purchased by Las Vegas real estate developer Jack Sommer and the Sommer Family Trust. In 1966, Milton Prell purchased the hotel and reopened it as the Aladdin. It was sold later that year and renamed as King's Crown Tallyho. The property was initially the site of the Tallyho hotel, opened by Edwin S. Hilton Grand Vacations operates the timeshare portion of the property, known as Elara. The new Aladdin resort opened in August 2000, but suffered financial difficulties and was eventually purchased in 2003 by a partnership of Planet Hollywood and Starwood, which renamed it as Planet Hollywood in 2007. It was demolished in 1998, to make room for a new resort that would also be named Aladdin. The property was previously the site of an earlier resort known as the Aladdin, which operated from 1962 to 1997. It is owned and operated by Caesars Entertainment. Planet Hollywood Las Vegas (formerly the Aladdin) is a casino hotel on the Las Vegas Strip in Paradise, Nevada. He listened to her story, sympathized, and asked Mary to come work for him instead of returning to West Computing. Although he was a total stranger to her, Mary shared her frustration about the bathroom incident with Kaz. But still, absurdly, she was unable to perform her bodily functions in the same bathroom as her white colleagues.Īs she was reeling from that encounter, Mary Jackson’s NASA prospects improved, however, when she ran into Kazimierz “Kaz” Czarnecki, a white engineer who was an assistant section head working on Langley’s Supersonic Pressure Tunnel (SPT). The white girls simply laughed at her-Mary was black, so how could they possibly know where her bathroom was? The ugly specter of Jim Crow hurt all the more because it was at Langley, where Mary was supposed to be an equal, working with her colleagues to help her country. Once, when she was sent by Dorothy Vaughan on an assignment to the predominantly white East Side, she asked the white computers where she could find the bathroom. But the sting of discrimination that she’d known so well growing up in Virginia still followed her to Langley. Mary Jackson’s Contributions: Supersonic Pressure Tunnelīut what did Mary Jackson do at NASA? Mary Jackson, NASA mathematician, was a full-fledged Civil Service employee. Mary Jackson, NASA employee, became a reality. After just three months at Fort Monroe, the federal government transferred Mary to Langley, where she began working for Dorothy Vaughan. Her mathematical abilities quickly became obvious to her superiors, and with the Korean War heating up, there was an urgent need for more skilled computers at NACA. Mary was working as a clerk typist at Fort Monroe in 1951. Mary also became deeply involved in her local Girl Scout troop, where she committed herself to helping young African-American women make the most of themselves-with a special focus on helping them prepare for college careers. After graduating, she married and started a family. She completed a double major in mathematics and physical science. With these founding principles, most women at Hampton studied home economics, but Mary was different. She graduated from high school in 1938, after which she had enrolled at Hampton Institute, an all-black college founded on the idea of self-help and practical and industrial training. Whereas so many of her predecessors had been “come-heres,” transplants from other parts of the country, Mary was a “been-here:” she’d grown up in Hampton Roads and had deep roots in that part of Virginia. In 1951, a new 26-year-old hire named Mary Jackson made her way to West Computing.
