Launching a Missile From a Submarine Is Harder Than You Think

The amazing amount of engineering and science that goes into launching an underwater Trident missile into low-Earth orbit.

Most Popular

Launching a missile from a submarine isn't as easy as pressing a big red button. It takes a lot of engineering and rocket science to ensure a missile gets from an underwater launch tube to streaking through low-Earth orbit at more than 13,000 mph—and sometimes, that delicate dance of physics can go wrong.

As these missiles increase in lethality, like today's Trident II D-5 missile, so do emotions surrounding the ethics of using such a weapon in the first place. But knowing Trident's future, and the future of other nuclear missiles, requires a trip to the past and an exploration of how you even launch a missile from under the sea. Here's how a missile makes it way through the water, into the air, and on its way to a target.

How We Got Here

Submarines couldn't always launch airborne missiles from under the sea, of course. During both World Wars, submarines were armed with torpedoes and deck-mounted guns—heavy cannons for engaging surface ships and lighter anti-aircraft weapons. Mine-laying submarines also terrorized the sea in the first half of the 20th century.

But at the dawn of the Cold War, it became clear that nuclear missiles would decide future world conflicts. The earliest versions of this technology—such as what went into the Nazi V-1 and V-2s, proto-cruise missiles used to bomb London—were used as a design starting point. These missiles had a range of just a few hundred miles, which meant you needed an aircraft or ship to carry them within range. A submarine with a capable missile carrier would be the perfect weapon, able to get weapons of mass destruction within incredibly close range of the enemy without being detected.

Captured V-1 missile, Holland 1945.

In 1947, the United States launched a JB-2 Loon, a direct copy of the German V-1, was launched from the deck of the submarine USS Cusk. This test proved it could be done, but the Cusk used an unpolished, jerry-rigged system. By 1953 the USS Tunny had been adapted into a true missile submarine, but firing the Regulus cruise missile was still an awkward process. The submarine had to surface, then the missile was manually loaded from storage onto a launch rail on the submarine's deck before it could fire. During the whole process, the surfaced submarine was visible and vulnerable to attack by enemy aircraft. The Grayback class of submarines were subsequently built to launch missiles from the surface.

At the end of the 1950s, weapons systems still had yet to master the tricky science of shooting a rocket through water. But technology was progressing quickly, and at the turn of the decade, the Navy developed the Polaris A1 Fleet ballistic missile. Successfully launched by the USS George Washington, this missile was a revolutionary development because it allowed a boomer, another name for a ballistic missile submarine, to remain submerged. Subsequent missiles have all been refinements of the same basic design, invisible and unstoppable.

Decades later, the ballistic missile submarine is still considered the most secure leg of the nuclear triad (land-, air-, and sea-launched nukes). And sub-borne missiles have only increased in range, power and accuracy. The original Polaris had a range of about a thousand miles and delivered a single 600-kiloton warhead with an accuracy of around a mile. In 1972 a new version entered service (originally known as the Polaris B3 but then renamed Poseidon C3) with had a range of almost 3,000 miles, and carried up to twelve warheads. In 1979 came the sea god's most trusted weapon—the Trident C4, which carried the same payload to a distance of 4,600 miles. It meant a sub in the Pacific could hit any target in the Soviet Union.

Today, American Ohio-class and British Vanguard-class submarines are equipped with a sixth-generation Trident weapons system. But perhaps more impressive than its awesome destructive capability is the mechanical process that launches the missile in the first place.

The Physics of a Launch

Made by Lockheed Martin, the current Trident II D-5 missile is a squat, blunt-nosed, 44-foot-long cylinder weighing nearly 120,000 pounds. It's fired by a steam cannon. First, an explosive charge flash-vaporizes a tank of water into steam. As the pressure of the expanding steam drives the missile out of its launch tube, it provides enough momentum for the weapon to clear the water's surface. This cocktail of high pressure and dangerous explosives is a crucial phase of every launch. Multiple safety mechanisms are in place to deactivate the missile if it fails to get away from the sub.

The missile slows down as it leaves the water and gravity tries to pull it back down. Motion sensors monitor the changes as the missiles hang in the air for a brief moment before the first of three rocket stages ignites.

Here, things can go spectacularly wrong if you're unlucky. Trident's first test launch from the USS Tennessee in 1989 failed because the plume of water trailing behind the missile interfered with a rocket nozzle. The resulting asymmetric thrust sent the missile spiraling in a spectacular pinwheel lasting four seconds before ending in a shower of flaming debris.

If all goes well, though, the first stage rocket burns for 65 seconds. During this phase, the missile extends an aerodynamic spike to smooth the airflow over the blunt-nosed cylinder. Without this spike, the missile can't survive its brief, high-speed transit through the atmosphere.

Finding Its Target

During this first minute, the missile should now be well on its way. It will eventually reach 600 miles above sea level. The remaining rocket stages still need to ignite, separate, and remain on the correct trajectory.

Again, this isn't so easy sometimes. According to a recent leaked report, a British Trident missile launched off the coast of Florida in June 2016 as part of a testing program was supposed to head east toward a target site near Africa. Instead, the missile allegedly veered east toward the U.S. before it was destroyed.

If the missile stays on the correct path, Trident then navigates with an inertial guidance system, based on a set of sensitive accelerometers measuring precisely how much the missile accelerated and for how long. An onboard computer uses this data to calculate speed and position of the missile. In most military technologies, inertial guidance has been replaced by GPS because the older way is expensive and has a tendency lose position over time. But that's not such a huge problem when your flight is only a few minutes long. The U.S. Navy has never fired a GPS-equipped Trident, largely out of fear of possible GPS tampering.

Because of the internal guidance system's limits, Trident also has a star sighting navigation system. Like an old-time sailor, this sensor gets a location fix by measuring the position of the stars to provide fine detail correction. This correction may be needed because the orientation of the submarine may not be precisely known at launch. A compass can be thrown by magnetic disturbances, and conditions at Earth's poles (where subs sometimes operate) don't help things either. Even odd gravitational anomalies may be great enough to throw the missile miles off course, so missiles—as well as Navy seamen—are well-versed in reading the stars.

Once all those stars align, the missile finally streaks toward its deadly destination.

Trident II D-5

Coming In For a (Destructive) Landing

As the missile approaches, it ejects twelve independent warheads at different targets. Each warhead has a yield of 100 kilotons—six times greater than the Hiroshima bomb. The missile's accuracy is quoted as less than 400 feet Circular Error Probable (CEP), meaning there is a 50 percent chance it will land less than 400 feet from the target.

But everything has to function perfectly for the missile to hit a target, and a glitch at any stage can be disastrous. There is also the new hazard of cyber sabotage of nuclear delivery systems. Malicious software, or even hardware which interferes with the missile controls, is a cheap way of disabling a nuclear deterrent. Although it sounds unlikely, such an attack wouldn't be without precedent.

The Royal Navy's latest botched test has only renewed calls from nuclear opponents who would like to see these destructive monsters of the deep retired completely. But as long as nuclear weapons exist, it's likely that that the Trident is going anywhere anytime soon.

So much to see at Hayling Island Horticultural Society show

REGIONAL: Mystery as man is found dead next to pet python

Have your say

THERE will be a riot of colour and sweet fragrances at a horticultural show.

The early summer show of Hayling Island Horticultural Society is on June 28 at Hayling Island Community Centre.

Jan Mitchell, from the society, said: ‘A riot of roses and a symphony of sweet peas – hopefully, that is, as so much is delayed because of the cold spring.

‘There’s so much more to see and enjoy, not forgetting the wonderful afternoon teas with home-made cakes.’

‘Most Northern Youths Are Illiterates, Biafrans Will Not Be Intimidated’- MASSOB Blast

The Movement for the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) has said that most Northern are suffering due to lack of education.

The group also called on elders in Northern Nigeria to warn their youths to guard their utterances.

MASSOB said this while reacting to reports that a group of Northern youths wants the United Nations (UN) to list Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), as a terror group.

Edeson also wondered why those calling for IPOB to be listed as a terror organisation have not reported Fulani herdsmen to the UN.

According to Daily Post, he said “These Northern youths who want United National to list IPOB as a terrorist group are confused and directionless group who do not know the meaning of terrorist and what constitutes terrorism.

“MASSOB will not blame them because they are limited by lack of education as most of them are illiterates,uneducated and charlatans who did not know the difference between terrorism and self determination.

“The Northern elites are using them to cause trouble because they are desperate to control Nigeria by all means by using Northern youths to intimidate Nigerians when they feel their hold on to power is threatened, and these Northern group forgot that they have ruled Nigeria for 20years from 1979 to 1999, there was no complain from the Southern part of Nigeria.

“The Northerners are to be blame for crisis Nigeria, their believe in “born to rule has failed them,that is why they are shouting and complaining creating confusion in the society.

“The Northern youth should have first of tell United Nations to declare Fulani herdsmen who went about killing and raping women and destroying people farm land as terrorists, these Northern youths are so blind that they cannot see the havoc the brothers are doing communities in the name of herdsmen.

“They want United Nation to label IPOB a terrorist organization because they are seeking like other Biafra agitating groups for self determination, when they use Boko Haram and Fulani herdsmen to kill and maim people and yet they have not been declared terrorists region. United Nations is made up of enlightened and educated people, they cannot respond to such laughable and unrealistic call because they know the meaning of what IPOB, MASSOB and other Biafra agitating groups are doing.

“MASSOB is therefore warning Arewa elders and their youths to mind their utterances because Ndigbo and Biafrans cannot be intimidated by their antics of the people who have continued the set Nigeria back and yet they want to hold on to power by all means.”

You will recall that a group of Northern youths had earlier issued an ultimatum asking Igbos living in the region to return to the South-East.

This may be as good

This may be as good a time as any to announce an exciting development–a new and improved Power Line site. We started this blog on Memorial Day of last year. I’d heard about blogging, read Andrew Sullivan and InstaPundit, and thought it sounded like fun. It took me less than ten minutes to set up the site on Blogger; the biggest hang-up was the site’s name, which a 13-year-old friend of my oldest daughter supplied in a moment of inspiration. Starting a blog is easy; obtaining readers is harder. Through a variety of efforts and lots of good fortune, we have developed a large and growing audience, to every member of which we are very grateful. While we are thankful for the start that Blogger gave us, and appreciate all of the many virtues of the Blogger software, we concluded a few weeks ago that we wanted a more powerful and flexible software, a more reliable hosting service–our biggest complaint is that frequently we are unable to post (usually only briefly) because we are cut off from our Blogger server–and a more attractive, professionally designed site. I resisted this conclusion briefly, as it was my minimal expertise at writing HTML code that accounts for the waving flag, the quotes and links, the power line graphic, etc. But I was quickly convinced that we would be better off in the hands of a professional web site designer. Some time in the next week or ten days, we expect to make the transition to a new site that will feature the same content but should be more attractive and more fun for us and our readers. Stay tuned; we will keep you posted as the new site is finalized.

Al Jazeera’s Hamas man in Afghanistan

A friend and former government official who closely follows issued related to terrorism forwards a statement released by the Prime Minister’s office on the conviction in Israel of Al Jazeera Afghanistan bureau chief Samer Allawi. Allawi was recruited by Hamas in Pakistan and, working for Hamas chief Khaled Mashal, advanced Hamas’s goals while employing the resources of his employment by Al Jazeera. The Jerusalem Post reported on the story yesterday. Today’s statement announces:

Samer Farik Muhammad Allawi, born in 1966, from Sebastia [on the West Bank], who resides in Pakistan and serves as Al Jazeera’s Afghanistan bureau chief, was arrested on 9.8.11 at the Allenby Crossing, on suspicion of involvement in Hamas activities.

During his investigation by the Israel Security Agency, Allawi admitted that [he] was recruited in 1993, while in Pakistan, to Hamas. Until 2004, he served there as a member of the “Supreme Palestine Committee”, which supervises and directs Hamas institutions. He also collected donations for Hamas-affiliated organizations such as “Al-Aqsa Association” and the “Palestinian Information and Media Center.”

In the framework of his activities for the SPC, Allawi went to Syria in 2001 and 2003 in order to report on his activities to Musa Abu Marzook, deputy to Hamas Political Bureau Chairman Khaled Mashal. In 2004, Mashal asked Allawi to work for him. During his meetings in Syria, it was proposed that Allawi serve as Hamas’s representative in Iran but he declined.

Allawi also admitted that in 2000, during a meeting with a Hamas operative in Dubai, he agreed to carry out military or organizational activity for Hamas. He even proposed, on his own initiative, to work to aid Hamas in advancing its goals by utilizing his position as a journalist with Al Jazeera.

In 2006, Allawi met with Hamas operatives in Qatar, who served as Al Jazeera correspondents, and agreed with them that they would exploit their work with Al Jazeera in order to strengthen Hamas by – inter alia – criticizing American operations in Afghanistan and expressing support for the Palestinian “resistance.”

In 2010, during an additional meeting with Hamas operatives in Qatar, Allawi was asked to work to strengthen public opinion in support of Hamas and the Palestinian struggle by – inter alia – criticizing American activities.

Allawi’s investigation shows that Al Jazeera is exploited by Hamas, which makes use its journalists in order to advance its goals.

Allawi’s involvement in military activity in Afghanistan, between 1988-1992, also came up during his investigation. In the framework of the mujahedeen, he participated (in 1988) in an initiated raid by rebel forces on Afghan government forces, and also took part in activity against Soviet forces. In 1992, Allawi attended a military training course in Pakistan so that he might return to Afghanistan and serve as a military trainer.

Allawi was convicted yesterday (Monday), 26.9.11, according to his own confession, in the framework of a plea bargain, of conspiracy on behalf of a banned organization (Hamas). He was fined, sentenced to time already served and received a suspended sentence of three years.

The Committee to Protect Journalists protested Allawi’s detention in an August statement. The CPJ protested Allawi’s detention in another statement this month. Insofar as can be determined from a search of the CPJ Web site, it has not commented so far on Allawi’s confession/conviction.

Why Isn’t the Economy the Issue?

At the New York Post, Carl Campanile and Danika Fears make a good point: “Hillary, Trump too busy insulting each other to focus on Obama’s weak economy.”

Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are too busy trading barbs on hot-button topics like race and immigration to discuss the economy, which has slowed to a crawl under President Obama’s watch.

“The numbers are bad. There should be a concern about the weakness in the economy,” said Douglas Holtz-Eakin, a former director of the Congressional Budget Office.

“I would have thought that the economy would be at the center of the presidential campaign. Instead we’re hearing about which candidate is more racist. It’s crazy. It’s sad.”

How bad is the Obama economy?

Commerce Department figures released Friday show that real GDP increased by a mere 1.1 percent annualized rate in the second quarter of 2016.

Barack Obama will leave office as the only president never to have witnessed a single year in which GDP growth hit 3%. Democrats tell us this is the “new normal,” that we should forget about the kind of growth that until Obama came along, we regarded as routine.

In 1992, Bill Clinton announced that “It’s the economy, stupid.” That was pretty much the sole theme of his campaign. He ludicrously claimed that the country was then experiencing “the worst economy since the Great Depression,” a lie that the press, to its everlasting shame, not just allowed but often endorsed. So what was the level of GDP growth that Clinton relentlessly denigrated?

According to the Bureau of Economic Analysis, the quarterly growth numbers for 1992, in chained 2009 dollars, were 4.8%, 4.5%, 3.9% and 4.1%. That’s right–the growth that Bill Clinton derided as the “worst economy since the Great Depression” was around four times what we are now seeing under Barack Obama. And Hillary Clinton promises to continue Obama’s anti-growth policies.

By rights, the election should be over. The Democrats’ chronically lousy economy should guarantee that the next occupant of the White House will be a Republican. Unfortunately, that isn’t the way things are turning out.

Baked Cheesy Buffalo Cauliflower Chips

Cheesy Buffalo Cauliflower Chips
I've been on a appetizer kick lately ... maybe it's the hot weather, but most days I just don't feel like making a big meal. This past weekend was prime example. I had some great ingredients and I was getting ready to make an Escarole and Cauliflower Soup. This was beginning to sound too hot and heavy so I went for Braised Escarole Salad with a side of Cheesy Buffalo Cauliflower Chips.

Funny thing is, I probably spent twice as much time in the kitchen doing prep work as well as time over the stove making the house and myself even hotter. The food was worth it!

The Cheesy Buffalo Cauliflower Chips had that little bit of heat that lasted after you ate it but didn't burn too much. It was the perfect heat for me. Since I made these, I have been craving cauliflower every day. I think we're getting another head in our CSA basket this week and if we're not, I'm off to the store to get one for another round of appetizers for dinner!

Cheesy Buffalo Cauliflower Chips

Serves 2

1 small head of cauliflower
1 egg
1 T hot sauce
1/2 t sriracha sauce
1/2 c panko or rice chips
1/2 c cheddar cheese
1/4 t salt
1/4 t pepper

Ranch Dip
1/3 c greek yogurt
3/4 t dill
1/2 t onion powder
1/4 t garlic powder
dash of salt

Preheat oven for 375º.

Cut the cauliflower into 1/2 in slices.

Cheesy Buffalo Cauliflower Chips

In a bowl, mix together hot sauce, egg and sriracha sauce. In another bowl, mix together your breadcrumbs, cheese, salt and pepper.

Take your cauliflower slices and first dip them into the egg mixture and them the cheese mixture. Place them on a sheet tray. Bake for 12-14 minutes or until the breadcrumb topping is turning golden brown.

Serve still warm with the prepared ranch dip.

The Dirty Dozen and Clean Fifteen

I think it goes without saying that organic is better than the alternative. However, sometimes our pocket books don’t allow us to be 100% organic. I know there are those of us out there that believe spending the money up front is better than the doctor bills in the long run but we need to be practical and some people just don’t have that luxury. Lucky for all of us there’s the Dirty Dozen and the Clean Fifteen.

Each year the Environmental Working Group (EWG) ranks supermarket produce letting the average Joe know which fruits and vegetables are contaminated with the most pesticides and which have the fewest. Believe me people; ignorance is not always bliss … when you see that some veggies can be sprayed with 35-40 different pesticides, the hebbie jeebies going up your spine should tell you differently. The last two years, the EWG has also added a ‘Plus’ category. These vegetables don’t meet the criteria of being as dirty as the dozen but they have toxins on them that can harm your nervous system -- scary!

Dirty Dozen List 2015

If you are going to buy non-organic produce from the dirty dozen list, the EGW recommends peeling the skins on the items that you can, i.e. apples, cucumbers, peaches, etc. Also, eating these fruits and vegetables is still better than staying away from fruits and vegetables entirely (I’m sure there are some of you that may debate this).

Buying organic will reduce your exposure to pesticides but it also sends a very important and PractiGanic message that as a consumer, you are in favor of environmental farm friendly practices that will help the land and the wildlife around the land.

A great idea is to print out the picture that I have above and leave it in your wallet so you have  it when you are grocery shopping.

Pradaxa Lawsuit

Pradaxa Lawsuit Co-Liaison Counsel Provides Update on Plaintiffs' Progress in Pradaxa Internal Bleeding Litigation, Discovery Abuse Hearing Set for September 18, 2013

Co-Liaison Counsel in Pradaxa Products Liability Litigation provides current news and information on Pradaxa lawsuit status as preparations for bellwether trials move forward and Pradaxa manufacturer's executives are required to explain allegations of discovery abuse.

St. Louis, MO (September 17, 2013) – A Status Conference occurred on September 4th in the Pradaxa Products Liability Litigation (MDL No. 2385, United States District Court, Southern District of Illinois), after which Mark Niemeyer, a partner with the law firm of Onder, Shelton, O'Leary & Peterson, LLC who is serving as Co-Liaison in the Pradaxa internal bleeding lawsuit, provided an update regarding the overall progress of the Pradaxa lawsuit.   The sample trials, referred to as bellwether trials, in the Pradaxa Multi-District Litigation are moving quickly toward expert witness designation.   Bellwether trials are the tool generally used to move a litigation towards resolution framework.  The Pradaxa internal bleeding bellwether trials are set to begin next August.  Additionally, high-ranking officials with Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals, Inc., the manufacturer of Pradaxa, have been ordered to appear and explain allegations of discovery abuse.   The plaintiffs' lawyers in the Pradaxa lawsuits have repeatedly made complaints of Boehringer Ingelheim's withholding and late production of corporate information related to the manufacture and marketing of Pradaxa.   Earlier this year, Boehringer Ingelheim attempted to block the Pradaxa internal bleeding lawyers from discovering the documents reviewed by a deponent in advance of that person's disposition.   The Court struck down this attempt and required disclosure of all documents reviewed by a deponent, describing the Defendant's position as disingenuous (Case Management Order No. 31 Regarding Defendants Discovery of Documents Reviewed by Deponents).   The previous Case Management Order (No. 30 Production of BIPI Employee Personnel Files) denied Boehringer Ingelheim's lawyers' attempt to block the Plaintiffs from discovering aspects of the company's deponent personnel files, including bonus and compensation information.

The Pradaxa Multi-District Litigation is the result of a large number of Pradaxa lawsuits filed throughout the country alleging Pradaxa internal bleeding, frequently resulting in death.   The lawsuits were consolidated to form the Pradaxa Multi-District Litigation being tried in federal court in Southern Illinois.   Pradaxa lawsuits are not class action lawsuits.   Pradaxa is an anticoagulant was approved by the FDA in 2010 to prevent stroke in people with atrial fibrillation.   A January 2013 report by the Institute for Safe Medication Practices ( compared serious adverse drug events reported to the FDA under the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System, also known as MedWatch, for Pradaxa, Xarelto and warfarin during the second quarter of 2012.   It found that Pradaxa use resulted in death nearly two and a half times as frequently as Xarelto and almost five times greater than warfarin.

Mark Niemeyer and the pharmaceutical litigation department at Onder, Shelton, O'Leary & Peterson, LLC handling Pradaxa cases wish to inform the families of those who took Pradaxa and then suffered a severe internal bleeding event, such as gastrointestinal internal bleeding or hemorrhagic stroke, that they may still join the Pradaxa internal bleeding multi-district litigation.   The Pradaxa lawyers at Onder, Shelton, O'Leary & Peterson are offering a free case review with no further obligation to the families of persons who experienced severe internal bleeding after using Pradaxa.  The firm is representing all persons who file a Pradaxa lawsuit on a contingency basis with no cost to the client unless they successfully win compensation for them.  Although the firm is centrally located in St. Louis, Missouri, it represents clients throughout the United States.  St. Louis is the closest metropolitan area to the court handling the Pradaxa Products Liability Litigation.

Niemeyer also invites other attorneys to consult with a Pradaxa lawyer at the firm, which are available either to handle those cases or work as co-counsel.

"But we have not achieved our tremendous increase in shareholder value by making shareholder value the primary purpose of our business. In my marriage, my wife's happiness is an end in itself, not merely a means to my own happiness; love leads me to put my wife's happiness first, but in doing so I also make myself happier. Similarly, the most successful businesses put the customer first, ahead of the investors. In the profit-centered business, customer happiness is merely a means to an end: maximizing profits. In the customer-centered business, customer happiness is an end in itself, and will be pursued with greater interest, passion, and empathy than the profit-centered business is capable of." - John Mackey

Picstop Customer Reviews

Hard to find what you need here

For a site that describes itself as a digital accessory specialist, you'd think something as simple as mobile charger for my car, or screen protector for my iphone would be offered, but apparently not! The screen protectors all seemed like they were for cameras or other devices, and the selection was small. When I looked in the "chargers" section, they were all for actual batteries, not for phones. I had a very hard time finding a basic car charger so I eventually just typed "travel charger" in the search box, and eventually found one for the car. However, to check the compatibility, you have to select your model of mobile phone, and Apple is not even an option. I did wind up ordering a replacement charger for my camera, but I was more than annoyed by the time I got through check out. The delivery was fast and the charger I ordered was fine, so I will give them that.

Shopping Tips for Picstop

Offers and deals for you

Free delivery

Whenever you shop on the Picstop website, your order will be delivered free of charge within the UK via standard delivery which takes 2-5 working days to arrive, regardless of how much you spend. With this free delivery option in mind, it could pay to shop with Picstop – even if it means spending a little extra on the items themselves. It might still work out cheaper than buying the same items for less from another online retailer and paying extra to have your order delivered.

Hot deals

If you’re shopping on a tight budget, check out the ‘Hot deals’ section on the homepage of the Picstop website. Here you’ll find around 12 different items which have been discounted by up to a whopping 70%. Each of these deals only lasts for a short period, so if you spot an offer you simply can’t say no to, snap it up the first chance you get – before the offer ends. On the other hand, if you’re not interested in any of the current deals, check back in a fortnight or so to see which bargains have been added since you last looked.

Extra money saving tips

Follow Picstop online

Never miss out on another gadget sale or promotion ever again by following Picstop online. The photography specialist has active social media accounts on Facebook and Twitter where they post competitions you can enter to win free Picstop goodies, price reductions on individual products and discount codes which are exclusively posted on the social media channels. Both the Facebook and the Twitter pages are updated several times each day, so check in as often as you can if you don’t want to miss out on the next big promo.

Picstop regularly hosts photography competitions you can enter to win everything from memory cards to city breaks. When they’re running, these competitions are promoted on Picstop’s social media pages, as well as via the newsletter and on the ‘competition’ page linked to in the footer of the website. Unfortunately, these competitions are pretty rare – they only appear once or twice each year – but they’re still worth keeping an eye out for.

The term 'trust' applies to a situation where a person or organisation (the settlor) is appointed to hold money or property on behalf of another (the beneficiary).

Trusts can be established for a number of reasons including the preservation of assets, tax planning, providing for children and charitable causes. The Public Trustee facilitates the creation of a trust when appointed as the trustee. Assistance will also be provided if you choose to establish a trust through your will.

Trusts FAQ

Charitable Trusts

The Public Trustee is Trustee for the following five leading philanthropic charitable Trusts in Queensland.

Queensland Community Foundation

Established in 1997, Queensland Community Foundation provides a permanent source of philanthropic funding for charitable organisations to enable them to respond to the needs of the Queensland community. The Trust achieves this through investing donated monies, distributing income earned and facilitating grants to charities.

Lady Bowen Trust

The Lady Bowen Trust was established in 2006 and aims to re-engage people experiencing chronic homelessness, or at risk of homelessness, so they achieve genuine, positive and lasting outcomes. The Trust partners with established charitable organisations, such as Mission Australia, to provide targeted and flexible support according to individual client needs.

Queensland Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Foundation (QATSIF)

The Queensland Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Foundation is an independent public Trust established in 2008, which aims to provide young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Queenslanders with a secure funding source through the provision and promotion of scholarships to assist them in their senior years of education.

The Forde Foundation

The Forde Foundation was established in August 2000 in response to the findings of the ‘Commission of Inquiry into Abuse of Children in Queensland Institutions’, better known as the Forde Inquiry. The foundation provides a small grants program to former residents of Queensland institutional care, in specific areas such as dental, health and wellness and education and employment related training.

Gladstone Foundation

Established as a perpetual Trust in 2011, the Gladstone Foundation enhances the liveability of Gladstone communities by providing social infrastructure and service needs in the Gladstone region. Specific purposes of the Trust are relieving poverty, assisting the aged, relieving sickness or distress, advancing religion and education, providing childcare services on a non-profit basis and other purposes which benefit the Gladstone Region.

When making your Will with the Public Trustee, you can nominate the above mentioned charitable Trusts as beneficiaries of your estate, commonly known as a bequest.

To find out more about nominating one of the charitable Trusts above as the beneficiary of your estate, speak to your Wills Officer during your Will making appointment.

Bruce Kulick

Genres: Rock / Classic Rock

Location: Encino, CA

Stats: 0 fans / 5 plays / 0 plays today

Members: Bruce Kulick

Pile driving intensity. Mind-bending leads. Addictive pop melodies. It's no wonder that a musician as versatile as Bruce Kulick has been venerated by artists as disparate as Meat Loaf and Kanye West. If you ever play Six Degrees of Bruce, the former KISS/current Grand Funk Railroad guitarist's curriculum vitae will keep you busy for hours. And that unyielding creative energy permeates his third solo LP, BK3, from the explosive hard rock arrangements to a jaw-dropping guest list boasting members of KISS, the Knack, Toto, Motley Crue and more.

After getting his solo feet wet with 2001's Audio Dog and 2003's lovelorn Transformer, the veteran axeman began working with producer Jeremy Rubolino in early 2004, finally commencing recording in 2006. As ideas and collaborators gradually fell into place, so did a newfound confidence within the third longest-tenured KISS expat, a too-often-unsung driving force amongst 12 years of their classic records from his uncredited work on 1984's Animalize to his quintessential performance on 1992's Revenge. "With [BK3], there was no compromise, period-and I was bold enough to ask people to get involved," Kulick says. "This record was done with an 'every song has got to be amazing' [mentality]. Once we got Gene Simmons and his son Nick committed, the album took a turn where we had to get more songs that complimented the powerful recipe that was developing."

Not only did the compositions begin to change, but Kulick pushed to assemble his own rock 'n' roll dream team, including longtime friend John Corabi (the Scream, Motley Crue, Kulick's own Union), Knack main man Doug Fieger, Toto axe authoritarian Steve Lukather, Edguy power metal stalwart Tobias Sammet and even current KISS drummer Eric Singer.

"There's a common thread with the record, and that's my guitar playing," Kulick explains. "And the approach Jeremy and I took was the production values should be up to Revenge standards. It's a very diverse record, yet [you don't] feel like, 'What's that tune doing here?' Many albums lack cohesion with different vocalists, but I know that my guitar playing is the glue on BK3."

The battery of songs is indeed impressive. The psychedelic-leaning "I'll Survive" was inspired by Kulick's infamous random 2003 shooting on Sunset Boulevard. Just as personal is album opener "Fate," a powerful statement of intent in which he offers multiple playful references to obscure KISS songs. Of course, as creative director of such an ambitious endeavor, Kulick also steered his many guest vocalists' visions. Gene Simmons' "Ain't Gonna Die" promises that the icon's legacy will never wilt in the face of mocking tabloids, and Hollywood mind games are assailed again in Fieger's poppy "Dirty Girl," examining the likes of Paris Hilton. "No matter how much she has, it seems it's never enough." Kulick laments. Elsewhere, Corabi combats himself on the tortured "No Friend of Mine," Lukather matches Kulick's virtuosity on lone instrumental "Between the Lines" and Nick Simmons nails his inspired, fantasy-driven recorded debut, "Hand of the King," all leading to the optimistic, orchestral closer "Life," conjuring the spirited insight of longtime idol George Harrison.

"There was the clear goal of making absolutely the best record that I could put together," Kulick concludes. "I feel like this is my Revenge."

Three things we learned about Orange Is the New Black season 2

Expect a new character, a strained relationship and a departure from the book in the show's upcoming second season

It’s just under three months until Orange Is the New Black‘s second season hits Netflix on 6 June, but that’s not going to stop the cast and creators of the show from hinting towards new characters and plot lines that are soon to be gracing our computer screens.

The majority of the cast and the creator of the show Jenji Kohan came together on Friday for a Q&A panel at PaleyFest in Hollywood, a yearly interactive pop culture event where fans can ask the cast and crew of their favourite shows their most burning questions.

In between giggles and jokes, Kohan and the OITNB cast did reveal some information about what will go down in Litchfield Federal Penitentiary next season.

To get your imagination going about what to expect from your favourite inmates this June, here’s three things we learned from the show’s panel at PaleyFest.

1. A new character is bound to “shake everything up” in season 2

Time to clear out a bunk bed…a new inmate is checking into Litchfield. New character Vee has been billed as a street-smart drug dealer who used children as her runners. At Paleyfest, Lorraine Toussaint, the Law & Order actress cast to play Vee, reveals more about the complicated character.

“Jenji has written one of the more complex characters I’ve ever played, and probably one of the more difficult characters I’ve played,” Toussaint said. “I think it’ll be interesting seeing how this character is received, because Jenji has written a character that plays and enjoys the game.”

Cast member Laverne Cox hints towards some troublesome behaviour from the show’s newest inmate as well.

“She shakes everything up – I mean, nothing’s the same because of Vee,” Cox teases.

2. Piper and Larry won’t exactly be on the smoothest of terms this season.

At the beginning of the series, it looked like main character Piper (played by Taylor Schilling) and her fiancé were going to conquer all and beat the challenges of having Piper serve a 15-month sentence.

But after some incidents of infidelity on Piper’s end in jail, it looks like Piper and Larry’s relationship will be on the rocks this upcoming season.

“When we left Larry and Piper in season one, their relationship was precarious at best, and for Larry, season two is pretty much spent trying to figure out if the damage that was done to the relationship is irreparable or if there’s something that they can mend there,” Jason Biggs, who plays Larry, said. “I think it’s hard for him to just give up on it, so season two is spent with that sort of turmoil.

3. Don’t expect the series to follow the book it is inspired by

Orange Is the New Black was inspired by the true story of Piper Kerman, an upper-middle class white woman sentenced to 15 months in prison for a mistake she made 10 years ago.

Kerman penned an autography called Orange Is the New Black: My Year in a Women’s Prison, but Kohan reveals that it’s been extremely difficult to stick to the details Kerman presents in the book.

“When we started Season 1, legal said, ‘You can’t use any of the characters in the book because Piper’s the only one who signed a release,'” Kohan said. “So the thing very quickly became its own animal. Season 2 is more. It’s all the little details you wanna know about.”

Chip Kelly's Extensive Experience in NCAA Will Benefit Philadelphia Eagles' Youthful Offense

By Joe Doris
Howard Smith-USA TODAY Sports

Before the Philadelphia Eagles brought Chip Kelly aboard as their new head coach following last year’s 2012 NFL Season, Kelly was the front-man at the University of Oregon and the mastermind behind an innovative and electric form of spread-option offense.

Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie and his front office decided to let go of their storied, 14-year head coach Andy Reid following a duo of horrendous seasons in 2011 and 2012. Their miserable and humiliating 4-12 record in 2012 set the stage for the unavoidable conclusion of Reid’s time in Philly.

Kelly is not only the perfect fit for the Eagles’ offense because of their widespread speed and versatility, but he is also a great choice in Philly because of his experience with young athletes during his six-year stay at Oregon, acting as head coach for the final four years. This past familiarity with young players is especially beneficial to the Eagles’ offense because so many of their players are just beginning NFL careers.

The Eagles house a boatload of youth among their offensive skilled positions, with RBs LeSean McCoy and Bryce Brown, WRs DeSean Jackson, Jeremy Maclin, Damaris Johnson and Riley Cooper, and backup QBs Matt Barkley and Nick Foles all younger than, or currently, 25 years old.

The one obvious exception on the Eagles’ offense is long-time veteran QB Michael Vick, who fortunately still harnesses the athletic ability of a much younger man. I look for Vick to lead the Eagles’ incredibly dangerous offense this season, while also acting as a guide and mentor to his younger teammates.

It is certainly hard to turn an NFL team around for the better in just one year, but I think that Kelly has a great chance to do so with the Eagles this season.

You can follow Joe on Twitter @EaglesRant for all Philadelphia Eagles/NFL insight.

Post-election audit shows 99.998 percent accuracy

Submitted article

COLUMBUS – Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted announced Wednesday the completion of a post-election audit of the results of the 2016 presidential general election. The audit showed the election results tested at a 99.998 percent accuracy rating.

Husted made the announcement at the Ohio Association of Election Officials Winter Conference yesterday.

Secretary Husted requires boards of elections to complete a post-election audit following each gubernatorial election, presidential primary election and presidential general election to ensure the election results reported by each board were accurate and to give Ohioans reason to have confidence in their system of elections.

“Our work to ensure elections have integrity does not stop on Election Day,” Husted said. “Election officials from both sides of the aisle still have work to do to test their results and audit their systems to make sure everything worked as it should during the last election and to start getting ready for the next election.”

During the audit process, boards are required to perform a review of three different contests, which must include the “top of the ticket” contest (president or governor), one other statewide contest selected by the Secretary of State’s Office after Election Day and at least one local contest chosen by each county board of elections. This year, in addition to their chosen local contest, boards were required to audit the race for President of the United States and for the Ohio Supreme Court, full term commencing on Jan. 2, 2017.

In 66 Ohio counties, the audit of the Presidential Race returned a perfect 100 percent accuracy rating. Sixty-eight counties showed a perfect audit in the race for Justice of the Ohio Supreme Court and 66 counties achieved a perfect audit of their local contest.

Statewide, only 22 discrepancies were noted in the presidential tally during the audit process. Most discrepancies were caused by voters not properly marking paper ballots according to the instructions, causing the machines to be unable to read the vote.

In the case of every error, boards have been instructed to modify their official results to reflect the change.

Post-election audits are open to the public and duly appointed observers.
