WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. and Israeli officials say Israel has modified U.S.-made Harpoon cruise missiles so it can launch nuclear warheads from submarines, the Los Angeles Times reported on Saturday. The State Department and Pentagon (news - web sites) declined to comment on the report, as did an Israeli military spokesman, in line with that nation's policy of refusing to say if it has nuclear weapons. Israel is regarded as the only nuclear power in the Middle East. According to a story posted on the newspaper's Web site, U.S. officials disclosed the information as a caution to Israel's enemies amid heightened tensions in the region and concern over Iran's atomic program. The newspaper said two U.S. administration officials described the Israeli modifications and an Israeli official confirmed it. All three asked not to be identified. According to the U.S. officials, Israel modified nuclear warheads to fit the widely used Harpoon cruise missile. They would be carried on three diesel-powered submarines delivered by a German builder at the end of the last decade. An Israel Navy Web site said the submarines carry Harpoon missile but does not give details on the warheads. Deployed by the U.S. Navy (news - web sites) since 1977, the Harpoon is in the arsenal of 28 nations. Israel has 120 Harpoons capable of submarine launch, according to various researchers. That version is 15 feet long and weighs 1,500 pounds with a range of 70 miles or more. It can carry a 488-pound warhead. A book published by the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace in 2002 said Israel was attempting to arm its submarines with nuclear-tipped cruise missiles. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wouldn't suprise me if Israel uses them either.

*Resists urge to smack Max* 17 weeks total. Each team plays 16 games but has one bye week.

Tyler's other identity?

Yeah... and it almost worked too. Damn that Mandela.

That's why I suggest seperation. Let the kids have a chance at a full live and let the ones with AIDs fuck each other all they want until a cure is found or they die. Whichever comes first.

The gimmick of an Australian is pretty poor.

Are you saying lowering the age of consent is enough to stop the spread of AIDS and infant rape? And that is enough? Can you explain yourself more fully?

Something needs to be done about this though. Something drastic to stop the spread. This would be one instance when I would support seperating the infected persons from the uninfected. It is obvious these people aren't taking proper precautions and why throw away a little kids life on a baseless belief? People have tried to educate them but it continues to happen. If these people had SARS they would quarantine them and I consider this to be somewhat the same since they have the knowledge of what they are doing. Build a really large 4 sided fence and keep them all in it and let them fuck each other until their dicks bleed.

Suprising they are charging more than the WWE. Also... not shipping until NOVEMBER?

I'm still of the mind that some extreme measures need to be taken in Africa.

How did the crew feel after the screwjob?

I will have Married With Children. There is no other option.

Yeah I've heard about that there.

That dude is soooo dead. I hope he has tickets to the next game just to watch an entire row of Cubs fans beat the snot out of him on Live TV.

I work for Comcast you dolt. And Scrappy is a bitch... but not as much as that one Indian kid from the 13 Ghosts of Scooby Doo. I REALLY hate him.

And if anyone knows about egos that would be Banky. Speaking Banky and the fact that Banky can't stand to not have people pay attention to him... I figure Banky needs to find himself a dependent woman that hangs on to him all the time. You know the type that takes a right fist to the gut but keeps coming back because she loves you? If he's lucky hopefully he can find one with a drug problem that he can exploit so that way he has another lock on her since he can keep her wasted enough not to be able to work and that way have control of her drug supply. I think that will get him all the attention he thinks he deserves. Edit: Wording.

I like Jack's chicken strips better.

Outside of Pepe being French. He was pretty funny. And besides... the though of cartoon Pepe raping a cat is pretty funny yet a sad thing since they are looking back at a 40 YEAR OLD CARTOON WHERE PEOPLE DIDN'T READ INTO EVERY GODDAMN THING.

I would probably enjoy it.

I would run SpyBot which you can get from the link referenced above.

I like Watson immensly. I just found the Sherlock perspective more interesting is all. I would think some of the other stories could have a interesting twist through Sherlock's perspective instead of Watson as well.

New kid in town NWA-TNA holding its own By Scott Williams The Daily News Published October 12, 2003 The deaths of World Championship Wrestling and Extreme Championship Wrestling in 2001 left World Wrestling Entertainment as the only major wrestling powerhouse in the United States. In summer 2002, a new kid showed up to the national wrestling dance when NWA-TNA debuted its bold plan for marketing mat action to the masses in a new way. Instead of the WWE’s (and WCW’s, during its lifespan) time-proven formula of using hourly free TV shows to sell its pay-per-view matches, TNA would put on weekly pay-per-views at a much lower price than the monthly WWE offerings. When the company started, there were a few questions. Did “TNA” really stand for “Total Nonstop Action,” or was it just a vulgar acronym? Was shlock-wrestling writer Vince Russo’s involvement going to allow TNA to be any kind of real alternative to the often-raunchy WWE? Would the company be able to come up with a formula that would make enough people order a weekly $9.95 pay-per-view to make it a profitable venture? To its credit, TNA has tried to create its own niche by making smaller, more dynamic wrestlers a featured aspect of their shows. The smaller guys, who would never get treated as much more than cannon fodder in WWE, really got a chance to shine in TNA’s “X Division.” TNA has not been without its problems. Russo-driven efforts to shock viewers at the expense of presenting compelling feuds that make sense have hurt, as have the portrayal of WWE castoffs as world-beaters in TNA (a notable exception being Raven, who has been used better in TNA than at any time since his original ECW stint, which ended in 1997). However, the biggest obstacle to TNA prospering has been that its only exposure to fans has been on the very weekly shows it seeks to sell. The company does have a weekly, free, syndicated show airing on some stations, but the market penetration is minimal. Recently, TNA produced a one-cent pay-per-view designed to introduce viewers to the company and its stars, but with no way to advertise the show, I’d doubt that many checked it out who hadn’t already seen at least one show. More recently, TNA has taken steps to combat its problems. Move No. 1 was securing a timeslot for a weekly pre-pay-per-view show. The more viewers get a taste for free, the more they might see something that could entice them to buy. No. 2 was the apparent phasing out of Russo, in favor of booker Dutch Mantel. The booking of Mantel, profiled in this column a few weeks back, is steady, somewhat predictable and has made Puerto Rico’s IWA into one of the most successful wrestling companies in the world. No. 3 might have been the biggie, at least in terms of drawing in an audience that does not already know about TNA. The company signed Hulk Hogan, one of the top pay-per-view wrestling draws ever, to a one-match deal. Hogan, estranged for months now from WWE and boss Vince McMahon, will appear on some TNA shows in the next few weeks to set up a match with Jeff Jarrett. The match is set for a late-November pay-per-view to be held on a Sunday night, as opposed to the group’s regular 7 p.m. (U.S. central time). The keys to TNA’s success could be in whether they deliver a strong enough show that people who ordered to see Hogan would order another show without him, and whether they can use Hogan’s marketable image to let currently unaware people know about the show. I hear from a lot of wrestling fans who bemoan the lack of an alternative to the garish, cartoonish and sometimes-vulgar WWE. Well, your alternative airs every Wednesday at 7 p.m. Speaking of fans I hear from, we’ll have some reader comments next week, so feel free to e-mail any comment or question about wrestling to the e-mail address below. I don’t claim to have all the answers, but I will at least toss you a pithy reply. Scott E. Williams is a Daily News reporter and a longtime wrestling fan. His e-mail address is [email protected].

I understand Cali is quite an expensive place to live. At least some parts.

That's usually a plus.
