    Kris Kristofferson. Now playing the biggest stage.

    The music is not my 'thing' but, to be going that long demonstrates that he made a lot of people happy to listen in. No small feat in any walk of life. As an actor he supported some of the biggest names with aplomb and dignity, he will be missed. Lights, music, action. RIP.

    MIM-72 Chaparral with head-on engagement capability

    The major disadvantage of the MIM-72 Chaparral (initially) was its inability to engage jet aircraft head-on. The AIM-9D "Sidewinder", on which its missiles were based, could not lock on target from this aspect. While it wasn't a major disadvantage for a AAM, it was a big hindrance for SAM, since...
