It successfully destroyed a surface vessel during recent tests in the Gulf of MexicoQUICKSINK is a weapons development programme overseen by the Air Force Research Laboratory  AFRL . According to AFRL, the goal of QUICKSINK is to replicate the ship-killing capability of the US Navys MK-48 torpedo in a cheaper, more-flexible air-delivered platform. A navy submarine has the ability to launch and destroy a ship with a single torpedo at any time, but the QUICKSINK [Joint Capability Technology Demonstration] aims to develop a low-cost method of achieving torpedo-like kills from the air at a much higher rate and over a much larger area,  says Kirk Herzog, AFRL programme manager, in a 29 April statement.The recent QUICKSINK test used a modified GBU-31 Joint Direct Attack stanley website  Munition  JDAM  that incorporates a maritime seeker on the nose.

 Once a thriving lumber community that dates back to the late 1700s, the humble town of Dennysville in far Down East Maine now could be easily overlooked. Travelers zip along U.S. Route 1 on their way to busier, more prosperous places, such as the city of Calais, 50 minutes farther east at the Canadian border.But wander left onto Route 86 and youll find the quaint town of Dennysville and its 326 residents tucked away on hilly residential streets that meander along the Dennys River, and ramble to the Cobscook shore. Majestic snow-laden pines, rippling streams and historic buildings create  stanley cup nz a picturesque scene not unlike a Currier and Ives painting. A historian visiting here once said Dennysville is like a fly in amber, frozen in time,  said Ronald Windhorst, president of the Dennysville Historical Society and pastor of the Dennysville Congregational Church.That obscurity, along with a dwindling population 鈥?down 34 percent over the last 10 years 鈥?and harsh economic times, provide limited resources for sustaining town services. A $7 million estimate last year for crucial road repairs was just the most recent hit.The town has $88,000 in its budget of just $450,000 of appropriations to cover all road expenses. The di stanley cup sparity, coupled with other drains on the coffers and ever-higher taxes, led Dennysvilles town officials to make a tough decision 鈥?recommending to residents that the town deorganize and turn their burdens over to the  stanley mugs state and county.Dennysvilles Select Board members
