“My new Smith & Wesson M&P.40 would be the perfect canvas for David Bowie to once again work his magic.”

The Chiefs were confident in wrapping up their playoff spot, but the club was looking to move up in the playoff hierarchy as they trailed Vancouver by just 2 points.

With their playoff berth secured, the Chiefs headed into the final week of the season hoping to finish on a winning note.

Spokane drops the first two games of best of 7 and returns home for the next three.

The Chiefs were swept in the first round of the WHL playoffs by the top-rated Cougars.

“During my law enforcement career, I routinely carried a backup gun discreetly hidden on my person. But in retirement, does this continue to make sense? I am no longer paid to confront people, and in my current role as a responsible citizen, avoiding conflict is the order of the day. But we can’t always pick our spot.”

As it approaches its second century of production, the 1911 pistol continues to achieve even greater levels of popularity. Twenty years ago, it seemed like the 1911 was losing quite a bit of ground to the double-action “wondernines” and was soon to be put out to pasture. This trend seems to have run its course and today, the 1911 has carved out an even bigger piece of the defensive market.

In numerical simulations of binary neutron star systems, the equation of state of the dense neutron star matter is an important factor in determining both the physical realism and the numerical accuracy of the simulations. Some equations of state used in simulations are C 2 or smoother in the pressure/density relationship function, such as a polytropic equation of state, but may not have the flexibility to model stars or remnants of different masses while keeping their radii within known astrophysical constraints. Other equations of state, such as tabular or piecewise polytropic, may be flexible enough to model additional physics and multiple stars’ masses and radii within known constraints, but are not as smooth, resulting in additional numerical error. We will study in this paper a recently developed family of equation of state, using a spectral expansion with sufficient free parameters to allow for a larger flexibility than current polytropic equations of state, and with sufficient smoothness to reduce numerical errors compared to tabulated or piecewise polytropic equations of state. We perform simulations at three mass ratios with a common chirp mass, using two distinct spectral equations of state, and at multiple numerical resolutions. We evaluate the gravitational waves produced from these simulations, comparing the phase error between resolutions and equations of state, as well as with respect to analytical models. From our simulations, we estimate that the phase difference at the merger for binaries with a dimensionless weighted tidal deformability difference greater than can be captured by the spectral Einstein code for these equations of state.

Over the years, the Blackhawk has been going through an evolutionary process, and today it’s far better than the original. The line has grown from the original.357 Mag chambering to include.44 Mag,.45 Colt,.41 Mag and the.30 Carbine. Let’s not forget the 9mm/.357 Mag and.45 Colt/.45ACP convertibles. Different barrel lengths have been offered and a few different models fabricated from stainless steel have also been in the mix.

Improvements in bullet technology have improved the capabilities of the 9mm cartridge. Winchester Bonded Ranger JHPs are a good example of a design that could breech barriers and still deliver good performance.
