Fresno is great!!!! I used to make fun of it when I was younger.

I have since noticed that God has a sense of humor, because He then put us here.

LOL..duck and cover drills, that's what they used to call them in our school. I was in elementary school, in Florida, during the Cuban missile crisis. We used to practice quite often. Those desks would have done a great job at protecting us!

no. no it is not real. But the fact that they follow every moving target with their stupid Fox News Alert/helicopter filming slow speed chases makes it believable. One thing that IS real though. Shep Smith IS an idiot.

Indeed. He should have to pay for our sleepy attention!

I'd consider $1,000 for the evening. But then his citizens are eating bark and grass . . . Couldn't do that--take their food money--thought they'll never see it as long as he's alive.

It is quite evident that this facility was not intended to support, and in many respects is incapable of supporting, the extensive test program that would be needed to fully develop a reliable missile system. In the United States, typically at least twenty test flights are required in the development of a large intercontinental ballistic missile, while smaller missiles are typically tested a larger number of times before being declared operational. The most noteworthy features of the Nodong facility are those that are entirely absent: the transportation links, paved roads, propellant storage, and staff housing that would be needed to support an extensive test program.

"No-Dong" is right.

"Japan warns North Korea over any missile launch"
By Teruaki Ueno

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "TOKYO (Reuters) - Japanese Foreign Minister Taro Aso warned North Korea on Sunday that Tokyo would regard any missile that dropped on Japan as an attack.

Aso made the comments amid reports North Korea could test fire an intercontinental ballistic missile as early as Sunday.

"If it is dropped on Japan, it will complicate the story. It will be regarded as an attack," Aso said on a Fuji TV programme.

"The possibility is not zero of a missile dropping on Japan. That's why we are worried," he said.

"We always have to think of a worst-case scenario."

Kyodo news agency, quoting unnamed diplomatic sources in New York, said Japan and the United States would seek immediate action by the United Nations' Security Council if North Korea went ahead with a missile test.

Aso stopped short of saying what Japan and the United States would do in the event of a launch.

But he said: "The responses will be rather harsh".

North Korea had moved components of a long-range missile to a launch pad along with 10 liquid-gas tanks to fuel it, a South Korean daily newspaper reported on Saturday, citing government officials for the information."
