Changing the Clip on a Spyderco Para-Military 2

The Spyderco Para-Military 2 has four positions for the mounting of the clip.  To change the clip to another position you will need a T7 Torx screwdriver. I ordered mine from Amazon.com.  The total price for a 6-piece set was $5.31 plus shipping.  To reposition the clip, remove the three screws, then retighten in the new desired position.  Easy as that.

Why President Obama Will Not Close Guantanamo Bay

As regular readers of Dreadnaught will recall, President Obama promised to close Guantanamo Bay within one year.  Then the president learned that it may not be so easy to close.  Congress then opposed the closing and withheld the necessary funds and limited the president’s ability to close GTMO.

Now, in a recent WP article, there are some answers about the president’s decision to not shutter GTMO,

Administration officials lay blame for the failed initiative on Congress, including Democrats who deserted the president, sometimes in droves. The debate, they said, became suffused with fear — fear that transferring detainees to American soil would create a genuine security threat, fear that closing Guantanamo would be electoral suicide. Some Democratic lawmakers pleaded with the White House not to press too hard, according to administration officials.

Review of Spyderco Captain

I recently purchased a Spyderco  Captain.  This is my third Spyderco.  I purchased this knife from PDQ Blades.  Great customer service and fast shipping.

This knife is no longer made by Spyderco, but you can still find it on ebay and other sites.

The times have changed at USC.  The ESPN 2011 top 25 rankings does not include the Trojans.  These are not the days of Pete Carroll.

Fight On!

Basketball For Whites Only

Not since the Louisiana magistrate denied marriage for interracial couples have we seen such an unenlightened point of view,

But here’s the kicker: According to a press release the newspaper and other Augusta media outlets received from the new league, “only players that are natural-born United State citizens with both parents of Caucasian race are eligible to play in the league.”

Thank you Moose Lewis, for setting back race relations at least 50 years.
