rubber (substance) - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about rubber (substance)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-21) Other sources of rubber are the Russian dandelion Taraxacum koksagyz, which grows in temperate climates and can yield about 45 kg/100 lb of rubber per tonne of roots, and guayule Parthenium argentatum, a small shrub which grows in the southwestern USA and Mexico. Early uses of rubber were limited by its tendency to soften on hot days and harden on colder ones, a tendency that was eliminated by Charles Goodyear's invention of vulcanization in 1839. Cheaper than natural rubber, it is preferable for some purposes, for example in car tyres, where its higher abrasion resistance is useful, and it is either blended with natural rubber or used alone for industrial moulding and extrusions, shoe soles, hoses, and latex foam. encyclopedia.farlex.com /rubber+(substance)   (467 words)

Mutant Reviewers from Hell do "Band of Brothers" The acclaimed (and justly so) HBO miniseries Band of Brothers is all about yanking you back in time, and plopping you down in the middle of a group of people who honestly didn't know how the whole war was going to turn out... I could say enough about Band of Brothers, but it'd take me at least forty more paragraphs to do things properly.  As it is, the series is not just exciting, action-packed and interesting... This was a huge, bold production that paid off spectacularly.  This is World War II in a way that movies can't summarize in a brief two hours; this is real history, presented not just for our entertainment, but also for our enlightenment and for their honor. www.mutantreviewers.com /rbandofbrothers.html   (1251 words)

FM 23-31 Appendix A - 40-MM Grenade Launcher, M79 A rubber recoil pad is attached to the butt of the stock to absorb some of the recoil. Remove the retaining band screw, which passes through the rear the front sling swivel mount, and pull the fore-end assembly away from the barrel (Figure A-8 and Figure A-9). The grenade's 37,000 rpm right-hand spin stabilizes the grenade during flight and applies enough rotational force to arm the fuze. globalsecurity.org /military/library/policy/army/fm/23-31/f2331_9.htm   (4075 words)

WARPIG - World And Regional Paintball Information Guide When they do get a grenade they soon discover there are not the best tool for every situation, and depending on the grenade they purchased they can be even more disappointed if their grenade fails to go off, or doesn’t mark well or in a large enough area. Like most paint grenades the technology it uses is length of rubber like tubing that is filled, stretching it much like the long narrow balloons used by clowns to sculpt animals. According to Kahuna, the grenade is stable enough to be carried throughout a game sans-wrapper, without fear of self-painting, but will reliably activate after hitting the ground from a height of 12 feet or higher. www.warpig.com /paintball/technical/misc/aogrenade   (1083 words)

My DVD Collection - Band of Brothers - Plot, Awards, Trivia Band of Brothers is a ten-part television miniseries about World War II, co-produced by Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks. Almost all the main actors were cast because of their close physical resemblance to the real-life soldiers they were portraying. The hard shock that many of the paratroopers spoke of when they jumped at Normandy--causing them to lose their leg bags, helmets, and other equipment--was caused by the parachute the troopers were using (not the type shown in the film). members.shaw.ca /david.p.z.888/dvd_movies/band_of_brothers.html   (2073 words)

Nerf HQ Forums :: View topic - Effective grenade (tested and awesome)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-21) The big big big disadvantage of this film canister 'nade is that the projectiles do not fly in all direction (360degrees around) so it can easily miss the target and its not very effective. I personally put a rubber band around the ones I use (tho, I don't use them often) and then hook a keyring into the rubber band, so it's like "pulling the pin" It is therefore impossible to gain a good 360* spread, which is why you need to employ the use of rubber bands as per my idea. www.nerfhq.com /phpBB/viewtopic.php?p=18506   (712 words)

Stun grenade??? - StoneDragon's Guitar Discussion Forum The XM84 Stun Grenade is a non-fragmentation, non-lethal "Flash And Bang" stun grenade that is intended to provide a reliable, effective non-lethal means of neutralizing & disorienting enemy personnel.

Oh yeah, anyone who does this: Be careful, because if you set it up as a mine, it can blow up and hit you in the face, and if you carry it in your pocket without a rubber band or something it could go off and kill you or hurt you.

Last check: 2007-09-21) A common technique is to put a blasting cap on an old artillery shell and wire it so that it can be detonated when American vehicles pass by. A less discriminating approach is to pull the pin from a grenade, wrap a rubber band around it to hold the activating handle, or spoon, in place and then put it in a pan of gasoline that gradually eats through the rubber band, causing the grenade to explode at a time and target uncertain.
