A by-the-book correctional officer was murdered on the job by two prisoners who didn't want to live by the rules, a prosecutor told a jury Wednesday as the death penalty trial of the first of those inmates began in Anne Arundel County.
"To them, Cpl. [David] McGuinn was an obstacle they had to remove, and they did," Assistant State's Attorney Sandra F. Howell said in her opening remarks in the trial of Lee Edward Stephens.
It is the first time in the more than five years since the 42-year-old McGuinn was fatally stabbed at the now-closed maximum-security Maryland House of Correction that prosecutors have publicly offered any motive.
Stephens, 32, is charged with first-degree murder in the fatal stabbing July 25, 2006, of McGuinn, an officer nicknamed "Homeland Security" for his approach to his work. The defense maintains that Stephens did not kill McGuinn, describing a chaotic scene in which the officer's blood wound up in Stephens' cell without his involvement.
The slaying and long-awaited seven-week trial have drawn wide attention. Not only was the fatal attack on a correctional officer a leading reason the state shut down the antiquated prison where it took place, but a conviction with a death sentence would be the first under the 2009 changes to Maryland's death penalty law. Close to 70 people attended opening statements.
With a photo of McGuinn on display, Howell told jurors that they would see a cell door from the House of Correction and a demonstration of how prisoners were able to jam its locks. She said Stephens and Lamarr Cornelius Harris (his name is also spelled "Lamar" in some documents), 41, freed themselves from their cells to "sneak up on Cpl. David McGuinn" and repeatedly stab him as he was doing the 10 p.m. head count on their 49-cell tier.
Howell said McGuinn's blood was in Stephens' and Harris' cells and on their clothing. It was on a trash bag in Stephens' cell and on his boxer shorts, she said.
What jurors won't see is a murder weapon. Although hundreds of homemade and other knives were found after the attack in the long-troubled facility — including one that the defense said was kicked into a utility area and later inexplicably turned up on another prisoner — no weapon was linked to McGuinn's death.
Jurors saw their first photos of the bloody crime scene and hospital room Wednesday. They heard their first testimony about McGuinn's cries for help crackling over prison radios, followed by efforts to save him as blood gushed from his wounds. He died an hour after the attack.
With no other correctional officers on the tier, only other prisoners saw the attack, Howell said. That leaves prosecutors to put prisoners convicted of serious crimes before the jury as witnesses.
Defense attorney Michael E. Lawlor seized on that point in his opening remarks, in which he attempted to plant doubts about both the believability of witnesses and the blood evidence. He contended that the prisoners who are expected to testify for the prosecution are swapping testimony for deals — one a potential move out of the country and the other sentence reduction.
But another witness, Lawlor said, will say only Lamarr Harris stabbed McGuinn. "Defense witnesses … will tell you that the person who attacked Cpl. McGuinn was not Lee Stephens," he said.
The crime scene "looks as though it was painted in blood," Lawlor said, contending that it's no surprise McGuinn's blood was in his client's cell.
Stephens' trial comes under the General Assembly's 2009 curbs on when prosecutors can seek the death penalty. The law reserves capital punishment for murders in which there is DNA or other biological evidence that links the defendant to the murder, a videotaped confession or a video recording of the crime.
Prosecutors have long said they will use DNA evidence. The defense has countered that McGuinn's blood was on several inmates.
The trial may also provide an inside view of the troubled prison in Jessup, where at least three inmates were killed in 2006.
Less than a year after McGuinn was killed and two weeks after a second correctional officer was stabbed and survived, state prison officials emptied the House of Correction, which opened in 1879. It has been closed since 2007; plans call for razing it.
Stephens, nicknamed "Jabar" and "Shy," is serving life plus 15 years. He was convicted of murder in the April 1997 slaying of a man outside a Salisbury nightclub. He was 17 at the time.
Harris is serving three life sentences plus 64 years. The longest stem from his role in an August 1989 execution-style slaying of two people in a South Baltimore park. He was 18. While in prison, he was convicted of assaulting a correctional officer and a fellow prisoner.

Red Bulls youth coach slashed to death in NYC
A 25-year-old youth soccer coach was fatally slashed in the neck
and torso and his ear cut off in one of New York City's busiest
neighborhoods last weekend, and police Monday were hunting for the
suspected killer.
Michael Jones, a native of Liverpool, England, was a coach with
the New York Red Bulls Youth Training Program. He lived in West
Harrison, in Westchester County.
He was on 14th Street in Manhattan's Union Square at around 4:30
a.m. Sunday when he was seen arguing with a man. Jones had earlier
been out with his girlfriend but they parted around midnight,
police said. Police were called to the bloody scene where Jones lay
on the street. He was taken to Bellevue Hospital where he was
pronounced dead at the scene.
Police late Sunday released surveillance footage of the
suspected slasher, a man with a ponytail wearing a dark jacket. No
arrests have been made.
The New York Red Bulls issued a statement, calling Jones a
"fantastic coach who loved soccer."
"This is truly a sad day for our soccer community and we will
do our utmost to help authorities in their investigation of this
case. Our thoughts and prayers are with Michael's family at this
time," the team said.
The New York Red Bulls are a Major League Soccer team.

"Vicky and Lysander" Webisodes Premiere Wednesday, December 19th at 3 PM ET
NEW YORK, December 5, 2012 - Fresh off the heels of the successful run of "Hunting Season" (hailed by Buzzfeed and Queerty as one of the five best web series of the year and clocking in over 300K streams since launch and counting), LogoTV.com today announced that it has secured the rights to comedic online series "Vicky & Lysander." Created, written by and starring LES* Film Festival founders Shannon Walker (Vicky) and Damon Cardasis (Lysander), "Vicky & Lysander" follows the twisted and hilarious antics of a deluded Manhattan couple who work tirelessly to climb the New York social ladder. "Vicky & Lysander" is comprised of ten episodes and premieres Wednesday, December 19th at 3 PM ET on LogoTV.com with new episodes posting each Wednesday at 3 PM ET.
"Our first original web series, 'Hunting Season,' performed incredibly well, so we're thrilled to continue that tradition with a completely different kind of program from this talented group of writers and performers," said Charles Runnette, Online Editorial Director for Logo. "Logo's always looking for ways to bring compelling entertainment to our audience, and web series like 'Vicky & Lysander' are the perfect way to do it."
Winner of "Best Borderline Performance Art" in NY Press for their "Best of Manhattan 2010" issue, and called "hilarious" by the NY Daily News, "Vicky & Lysander" originated as a 3-month, sold out performance in NY's Lower East Side. "Vicky & Lysander," a comedy series whose ten episodes average five minutes in length, features a ridiculous New York couple who attempt to regain their stake in New York High Society after being blacklisted.
Coming from old Southern money, Lysander is the type of guy every man wants to be and the man every girl wants to be with. A jet-setting playboy known for his incredible DJ-ing skills (off his iPod shuffle), Lysander embodies downtown coolness. His signature turtleneck makes him a standout at any art opening, and his fun flamboyant personality is the life of any party.
Being born into old Houston oil money, Vicky was a shoo-in for NY society, quickly climbing the ladder and being seen on philanthropic boards throughout the city.
Whilst in the process of planning a gala for Artists Against Inhumanity, a very important fundraiser to fight "inhumane things," but more importantly, serve as a showcase for all their cool artist friends and themselves, Vicky and Lysander learn that they have not been invited to the Met Ball this year. The shocking revelation leads the couple from uptown to (gasp) downtown.
Vicky begins to unravel and a wedge grows between NY's most powerful couple. Will their love survive the challenge? Will Vicky be able to overcome her societal woes and pull off this Artists Against Inhumanity Gala? Will Lysander continue his climb to the top of the downtown scene? With the help of their earthly guardian angels, Jethrob Barnaby (Lysander's stylist), Jenny (a transsexual Cambodian fashion designer) and Tatanka io Tanka (Vicky's shaman and BFF), there is nothing the New York power couple can't take on.
Damon Cardasis (Lysander) is a NY-based writer, director and producer as well as a Co-Creator of The LES* Film Festival. Prior to The LES* Film Festival he directed and produced the feature mockumentary "March!" and worked on the films "The Private Lives of Pippa Lee," "Doubt" and "Stop Loss." He is currently running director Rebecca Miller's production company, Round Films, and is the creator, writer and star of the new Logo TV web series "Vicky & Lysander." In addition to these projects he is writing a dark, comedic feature and has several other projects in development with Ms. Walker.
Shannon Walker (Vicky) is a writer, producer, and actor living in New York City. Credits include writing and acting in the feature film, "March!," the Lower East Side's acclaimed dinner party "Vicky & Lysander," and numerous independent films and off-Broadway shows. She is also the co-creator of the LES* Film Festival, an annual extravaganza in Manhattan's Lower East Side that features the work of bold independent filmmakers.
"Vicky & Lysander" is produced by BFD Productions -- a NYC based production company headed by the producer/director team, Tony Castle and Roxy Hunt. The filmmaking duo has produced and directed for many clients including CNN, Fast Company Magazine, The Public Theater and Susan Sarandon, as well as directing the LES* Film Festival, in Manhattan's Lower East Side. Roxy and Tony also produce their own original content, and have completed the first season of the web-series "Vicky & Lysander," with partners Damon Cardasis and Shannon Walker.

Chris Reeves at Newcity speaks to Thomas Kong and Dan Miller about Kim's Corner Food and their on going collaboration. Read an excerpt of the article below and find the full article at Newcity:
"During my recent visit to Kim's Corner Food in Rogers Park, store owner and manager Thomas Kong stepped outside following a short cloudburst of rain. From there, Kong called to Dan Miller, an artist who has been his constant collaborator for the last three years, to grab his camera and meet him. When Miller emerged from the shop, Kong asked him to snap a picture of a swath of sidewalk bearing the water-stained traces of freshly fallen rain, and he happily obliged. I had come to get a sense of the artistic partnership between Kong and Miller, prepared with questions on the nature of contemporary artistic collaboration, unconventional exhibition spaces, public art, shared labor, and so on. But in this moment, I realized that perhaps I was overthinking it and that the crux of their collaboration could be a simple matter of mutual respect and friendship.
Miller's approach toward Kong's work makes that wholly apparent. He is careful not to project too much art-world jargon onto it, but is clearly interested in how Kong's method and approach could be re-evaluated as a form of radical artistic practice. "He's the most productive yet happiest artist I know," Miller tells me. In Kong's years running Kim's, he has created thousands of collages using discarded product packaging from the store—Newport cigarette cartons, Little Debbie cakes, Pepsi twelve-pack boxes, etc. For years, Kong has mounted them with glue or tape to cardboard supports and hung them in the store. The artworks dominate the retail space, lining the backs of shelves, plastered to the windows and overtaking their still-for-sale counterparts. And while each work stands on its own, it would seem the project is really the shop itself, a functioning retail store usurped by Kong's inexhaustible desire to reproduce endless formal variations from the remnants of the products it proffers. Seeing the daily flow of customers coming into the shop to buy soda or cigarettes feels peculiar, like someone doing legitimate grocery shopping inside of a total work of art."

Difference between revisions of "Ronda"
Revision as of 00:52, 8 November 2012
Ronda [4] is a town in Malaga in Spain. Set in and around a deep gorge spanned by an impressive bridge, the relaxing atmosphere here is a great break from some of the more tourist-ridden places on the south coast of Spain, however it can still be packed with day-trippers from the Costa del Sol, especially during the peak summer months.
Get in
Ronda is easy to get to by train from Madrid or regional trains and is a good day trip from the Costa del Sol resorts. The main railway station, located approximately five minutes from the central bus station, is just a few blocks from the centre of town.
The easiest way to get to Ronda from Malaga is by bus. Los Amarillos buses cost around €9 and take about two hours to get to Ronda.
Get around
Ronda is a small town, easily navigable on foot. To ensure you are well hydrated through out the day, be sure to keep yourself hydrated with water.
Note: there are many water fountains located through out areas of the old town, which you can drink from. However be careful of very high water pressure - may cause splashing!
There are plenty of ATMs dotted about the main commercial district.
Avoid the restaurants in the tourist area during the day, as they are overpriced and often only full of other tourists! Look for smaller cafes and bars. A quick breakfast usually consists of toast (pan tostada) and coffee (cafe con leche--coffee with milk; be sure to add the pack of sugar always served with it for a real treat.) If you are looking for an inexpensive snack or lunch, any bar will be able to make you a sandwich (bocadillo) with your choice of ham, cheese, or tomato. Also, look for bakeries (pastelerias), as Spain has some of the finest pastries around.
Near Ronda, high quality wines are produced in small wineries. Also you can find "Anis del Tajo".
There are plenty of hotels in the area of town tourists are likely to want to stay, on some streets it looks like more of the buildings are hotels than are not.
Get out
Ronda is a district hub for the bus services to other pueblo blanco towns and villages such as Montejaque, Benaojan and Zahara la Sierra. Most of these villages have at least one weekday service, while others have up to three services a day.

Don�t be m yth-led by these�six food safety myths:
MYTH 1 If it tastes O.K., it�s safe to eat.
FACT 1 Don�t count on your sense of smell, taste and sight to tell if a food is safe. Each year in the United States, 76 million people become ill from a foodborne illness and 5,000 people die.
Would this many people eat something if they thought it tasted, looked or smelled bad?
Even if tasting would tell and it often doesn�t ... a "tiny taste" could be deadly. As few as 10 bacteria could cause food-borne illnesses, such as E.coli!
MYTH 2 If you get sick from eating a food, it was from the last food you ate.
FACT 2 It can take�30 minutes to six�weeks to become sick from unsafe foods. You usually feel OK immediately after eating and become sick later.
MYTH 3 The worst that could happen to you with a foodborne illness is an upset stomach.
FACT 3 You also can experience the following from a foodborne illness: vomiting, fever, diarrhea, dehydration. Less common, but possible severe conditions include: Meningitis, paralysis and death.
MYTH 4 If I�ve never been sick from the food I prepare, I don�t need to worry about feeding it to others.
FACT 4 Some people have a greater risk for foodborne illnesses. A food you can safely eat might make others sick. People with a higher risk for foodborne illness include: Infants, young children, older adults, people with weakened immune systems and individuals with certain chronic diseases.
MYTH 5 If you let a food sit out more than two hours, you can make it safe by heating it really hot!
FACT 5 Some bacteria, such as staphylococcus (staph), produce poisons not destroyed by high cooking temperatures.
MYTH 6 Meat and poultry should be washed before cooking.
FACT 6 Washing is NOT necessary or recommended. Washing increases the danger of cross-contamination, spreading bacteria present on the surface of meat and poultry to:
� Ready-to-eat foods;
��Kitchen utensils; and
� Counter surfaces.
Proper food handling helps assure food is safe to eat. Remember: When in doubt, throw it out.

On behalf of Corinth Community Worship Center, we would like to say thank you for the opportunity to serve Owen County.
Our youth group picked up 10 miles of trash that stretched from the county line on Hwy. 330 to the bridge by Duncan Hill.
This was a learning experience for our youth in being responsible and not littering, and they also learned how important it was to work together as a team.
We take pride in knowing that our roads are clean and that we could be a part of it.
The recent events in Oklahoma have shown the spirit of the community residents.
When people lose their home and are hurt or missing, people rush to the scene and send money or supplies to help strangers. Watching on TV and the Internet, you see how people turn bad into good. The need for the community to be resilient is an ongoing subject throughout disasters. Planning for natural and man-made disasters is on the Internet and TV. You see plans for what items you should have ready in case of disaster and where you should go.
The Kentucky Sheriffs' Boys and Girls Ranch would like to send a very special thank you to Owen County Sheriff Zemer Hammond for working so diligently and continuing his efforts to raise money for needy children in Kentucky. Most recently, Sheriff Hammond was instrumental in obtaining a very nice donation from a local contributor.
Recently I overheard a local gentleman advise his friend not to allow his children to "go too far to the left or too far to the right, but instead keep them in the middle."
That, my friends, is what has happened in our country. Not willing to offend anyone we have become lukewarm middle of the road Christians.
Christ has a few words to say about lukewarm Christianity. "So, then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spew you out of my mouth." (Revelation 3:16)
We are proud to announce that we have set a date for our 14th annual Charlie Satterwhite Memorial Golf Shamble. This year's tournament will take place on Saturday, April 6, at Fairway Golf Course in Wheatley. Your participation over these past 11 years has been greatly appreciated. Your efforts have allowed us to raise over $110,000 for our two charitable organizations.
In recent months we have heard a lot about the right to keep and bear arms. What is our duty as Christian Americans in regard to this important matter?
We know that everyone has been really concerned about school safety since the Newtown tragedy. Be assured that OCES is continuously thinking about our students' safety. Owen County Elementary School practices emergency situations throughout the year.
When our SBDM committee last met, the committee agreed on the modification of a few procedures that stood out as concerns. Below, we have bulleted the changes or modifications that will be implemented as of Feb. 1.
As of Feb. 1:
I would like to say thank you to the Owen County Volunteer Fire Department.
They came to our house on Sunday, Jan. 13, in the cold, rainy weather. They were at our house in less than one minute from the time we called 911 and had the fire under control within minutes.
So if you see a fireman make sure you say thank you for all they do. I know I will.
Again, thanks so much.
Spanky, Mandi, Kayleigh and Levi Hudnall
With the soaring cost of running state and county government offices, there are many cutbacks being made. Across Kentucky, the county clerk's offices struggle to handle personnel, consumer services and operating costs into their working schedules, it sometimes becomes a decision between hours of service offered and the number of staff. Both state and county governments are searching for a solution to the dilemma.

At EC&M, we know NEC issues are very important to our readers. That's why we've dedicated a monthly department to answering your latest Code questions and concerns. When you find yourself stumped by the Code, just e-mail your question to [email protected] for future consideration in Code Quandaries.
Q. I know the standard convention is to run each phase and neutral in each raceway. Does the NEC allow me to run the conductors of each phase in a separate raceway? The reasoning for this would be for ease of alignment to terminate parallel conductors in large equipment.
A. Yes. The NEC allows "isolated phase installations," as you described, but you must install the conductors in accordance with the requirements of Exception No. 2 to Sec. 300-5(i). It specifies that an "isolated phase installation" is permitted in nonmetallic raceways in close proximity where the installation complies with the requirements of Secs. 300-20 and 310-4.
Sec. 300-20 prohibits induction from heating the metal surrounding the conductor. Sec. 300-20(b) allows for cutting slots in the metal between the individual holes through which the individual conductors pass and for using aluminum locknuts. Sec. 310-4 requires all paralleled conductors in each phase, neutral, or grounded circuit conductor to be the same length, have the same conductor material, area (in circular mils) and insulation type, and be terminated alike.
Commentary in the NEC Handbook states that "isolated phase installations" increase the circuit impedance, which results in a greater conductor voltage drop. In addition, this type of installation should be limited to outdoor, underground installations so as to reduce inductive heating of interior metal as well as reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) of sensitive electronic equipment.
Q. I have spent the last hour looking at the 1999 NEC to find out if a grounding receptacle must be marked "GFCI Protected" when the circuit's first device is a GFCI receptacle. Does the Code address this? The design is to use one GFCI to protect four other grounding-type receptacles.
A. No. GFCI-protected receptacles are not required to be marked "GFCI Protected." However, Sec. 210-7(d)(3) specifies that when replacing a receptacle where a grounding means does not exist in the receptacle enclosure, you can replace a nongrounding-type receptacle with a grounding-type receptacle if protected by a ground-fault circuit interrupter. These receptacles must be marked "GFCI Protected" and "No Equipment Ground."
Q. Specifications require me to run EMT to a refrigeration system's compressor rack. I have been doing electrical work for 16 years, and I have always run flexible raceway to any equipment that vibrates (such as motors and transformers). Is there an actual Code article that tells me I have to use flexible raceway when running a branch circuit to a motor or transformer?
A. No. The NEC does not require a flexible metal raceway for motors or transformers. However, the method of choice for motors and transformers is a flexible raceway — not because the NEC requires it, but because it's the proper engineering choice.
Q. An electrical inspector recently failed one of our cell tower installations because nonconductive optical-fiber cable ran in the same raceway and enclosure with the 120V circuits. Can I run nonconductive optical-fiber cable in the same raceway and/or enclosure with power cable?
A. Yes. Section 770-52(a) states, "Nonconductive optical fiber cables shall be permitted to occupy the same cable tray or raceway with conductors for electric light, power, Class 1, nonpower-limited fire alarm, or medium power network-powered broadband communications circuits operating at 600 volts or less."
Q. Can we use a 2-pole switch to control 277V lighting and a 120V-exhaust fan in a bathroom by running the circuits through separate poles of the switch?
A. No. The answer comes from the listing of the switch [Sec. 110-3(b)]. Under the guide card information for snap switches on page 103, the 2000 UL White Book says: "Multipole, general-use snap switches have not been investigated for more than a single circuit operation unless marked '2-circuit' or '3-circuit.'" The switch cannot be used to switch the two separate branch circuits, unless it is marked.
Q. We were saw cutting for a tenant improvement and hit a series of 1-in. and 2-in. schedule 40 conduits that fed several retail spaces. The conduits in the area we were cutting were buried approximately 2 in. from the top of the slab. Does the NEC specify how deep conduits must be placed when installed in a concrete slab?
A. No.
Q. Please advise what plenum-rated cables mean for data and voice cables?
A. According to Sec. 725-71(a), 760-71(d), and 800-51(a) and FPN, plenum cable is listed as suitable for use in ducts, plenums, and other spaces used for environmental air, and it has adequate fire-resistant and low smoke-producing characteristics. One method of defining low smoke-producing cable is by establishing an acceptable value of the smoke produced when tested in accordance with the Standard Method of Test for Fire and Smoke Characteristics of Wires and Cables, NFPA 262-1994, to a maximum peak optical density of 0.5 and a maximum average optical density of 0.15. Similarly, you can define fire-resistant cables by establishing a maximum allowable flame travel distance of 5 ft when tested in accordance with the same test.

8. A movie with a 30 or below Rotten Tomatoes rating has been nominated this year.
9. Was any other best picture nominee from 2008 within even 10 points of "The Reader's" meh 61 percent on Rotten Tomatoes?
10. Has any film with a Rotten Tomatoes rating below 50 been nominated for best picture in the past 10 years?
Answers on Page E3
1. Yes! Gibson collected best director and best picture as producer of "Braveheart"; Welles shared the screenplay prize for "Citizen Kane"; Kubrick shared the visual effects award for "2001: A Space Odyssey"; and Welles and Hitchcock otherwise received only honorary Oscars.
2. You say "yes," I say "yes." Although he has never won for original song - seriously, academy, "The Morning After" over "Live and Let Die"? - he shared the song score prize with the other Beatles for "Let It Be."
3. Absolutely ... not! "Gravity" is No. 7, with $268.3 million and No. 8 worldwide with $700.9 million as of this writing.
4. Yeah sure, you betcha. Its $336.7 million total take so far is already Scorsese's best, and its $111.2 million domestic showing is his third best, less than $21 million behind "The Departed." Leonardo DiCaprio has starred in Scorsese's top five grossers worldwide and top four domestically.
5. Not! Oscar Hammerstein II won two best original song trophies for "The Last Time I Saw Paris" (1941) and "It Might as Well Be Spring" (1945).
6. Yeppers. "The Fugitive" (1993; 1994 Oscars) caught a nom with one hand.
7. No, sir! But his huge hit movie "Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa" (more than $100 million box office) is nominated for hair and makeup. And "American Hustle" is not. True story.
8. Oh, yes, there is - "The Lone Ranger's" lone saving grace may be its visual-effects nod. Although this writer will continue to defend Depp's interesting take on Tonto.
9. I say thee nay! The closest was "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button," at 72 percent. All the other nominees were in the '90s, as was "The Dark Knight," which was not nominated.
10. Yahtzee! "Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close" (2011) owns a blech 47 percent. The site's record, by the way, is a miserable 13 percent for 1936's "Anthony Adverse" (no, this writer had never heard of it, either).

A new Indian procurement policy that gives priority to state-owned defense companie
24th Apr 2014
A new Indian procurement policy that gives priority to state-owned defense companies has prompted Elbit Systems and Thales to forge ties with the Ordnance Factory Board (OFB), which administers 41 weapon factories, and promise to transfer high technology in return for firm orders, an OFB source said.
Under Defence Ministry changes to procurement policy last year, state-owned companies get first priority in weapon procurement, and overseas defense companies will be the last option.
The overseas companies will capitalize on firm orders with OFB in return for transferring technology, the OFB source said.
No executive from Thales or Elbit was available for comment.
Elbit of Israel has agreed to transfer technology for the production of thermal imaging systems to the state-owned electro-optics factory in Deharun, which will supply Indian artillery, armored and paramilitary forces. This deal alone can assure business worth more than $150 million to Elbit with repeat orders expected, the OFB source said.
Thales, a major French electronics group, has agreed to transfer technology for night-vision systems to a Dehradun-based OFB factory that was awarded a contract worth $150 million to supply the devices.
The demand for night-vision devices and optic systems is worth more than $400 million per year. This year, BAE Systems offered to help OFB with its $2.5 billion modernization of the 41 aging ordnance factories. A BAE executive said its plan, submitted to OFB, promises to increase productivity and reduce manufacturing waste.
When completed, the OFB modernization could create stiff competition for local private-sector companies, forcing them to review their strategy in tapping a weapons market, analysts here said.
Russia is the main supplier of technology to the state-owned ordnance factories, followed by Israel and South Africa.
Other Projects
Among OFB's major plans are upgrading howitzers bought from Bofors in 1987 from 39 caliber to 45. Winter trials of the prototype were successful, and if summer trials succeed, production would begin at a state-owned factory in Jabalpur, the OFB official said.
The Army has ordered 114 of the upgraded guns, and more orders are likely to follow.
Planned new projects include manufacturing new-generation assault rifles and carbines; 155mm cannons and mounted gun systems; rockets for Russian Smerch multibarrel rocket launchers; rockets for Russian-made Grad launchers; a successor to the L-70 air defense gun; a very-short-range air defense missile; and upgraded ammunition for 84mm rocket launchers, the OFB official said.
OFB is increasing production capacity for Russian T-90 and T-72 tank engines operated by the Indian Army.
In addition, the Nalanda factory will make a variety of ammunition for bi-modular charges, while the Korwa factory would produce carbines, the official said.
Other OFB projects include integrating light field guns on infantry fighting vehicles and development of a stabilized remote-control weapon system.
However, OFB sales have stagnated. Total sales figures for the 2012-13 financial year were $2.07 billion, $2.06 billion for 2011-12 and $1.9 billion for 2010-11.
"Low productivity and obsolete machinery in several of the OFB plants has been responsible for the stagnated sales of OFB," said Mahindra Singh, a retired Indian Army major general.

Every morning, the fine folks at Sports Radio Interviews sift through the a.m. drive-time chatter to bring you the best interviews with coaches, players, and personalities across the sports landscape. Today: Charles likes to start conspiracy theories.
Charles Barkley joined ESPN 1000 in Chicago with Waddle and Silvy to talk about how impressed he was with Anthony Davis when he watched him play during the NCAA Tournament, what he thinks of Steve Kerr saying Davis will be an NBA MVP in five years, if he thinks Michael Jordan would take Davis at number one if the Bobcats get the first pick, why he has some suspicions that Charlotte may not get the number one pick in the draft lottery, who he thinks is coming out of the Eastern Conference, why he doubts Miami's chances of getting back to the NBA Finals, and his thoughts on the Stan Van Gundy-Dwight Howard situation in Orlando.
How impressed were you with the big kid from Kentucky, Anthony Davis the freshman?
"You know what, I like that kid. He seems like a very nice kid. It's unfortunate he's going to come out. I'm not big on these one-and-done guys. I wish we can keep them in college for two years. You know, he's got to gain some weight. He's probably got to gain 30-40 pounds if he's going to play in the NBA."
People are really comparing him to some of the greats. Some comparisons to Tim Duncan and some guys compared him to Bill Russell. Steve Kerr told us that he thinks in five years, he's going to be an MVP in the NBA.
"First of all, Steve Kerr is wrong. I like Steve Kerr. I like Steve Kerr a lot, but he's not going to be an MVP in five years. I don't even know what position he's going to play. He's only about 6'10, so if he plays power forward, he's not going to be just killing people at the power forward position. He's a center in college, but there's not many 6'10 centers in the NBA but I don't like when they compare guys because we don't know how these guys are going to turn out."
I know. Greg Oden was being compared to Wilt Chamberlain a few years back.
"I know. How did that work out? And I pulled for that kid, because he's a very nice young man, but you know what, we don't know injuries. We don't know what team he's going to go to. Think about it, if he goes to one of these bad teams, he's going to be fighting uphill. Some of these teams in the NBA are terrible. If he goes to a bad situation, he's going to go out there and get his brains beat in and we don't know how he's going to handle that mentally."
You told us the story about Michael Jordan and Adam Morrison, the last time he had a really high pick. The Bobcats should, unless the lottery ball bounces the other way, get the number one pick. He's not going to screw this up. He would take Anthony Davis, would he not?
"I've got to tell you something, I'm really concerned about the number one pick in the draft this year. Well, number one, I think Michael would take Anthony Davis or I'd kill him (laughs). I can't say this, but I'm going to be watching the draft lottery very closely because I don't want no shenanigans."
What are you alluding to? What do you think could happen?
"I'm going to be very leery if Anthony Davis ends up in Brooklyn. You know, I'm going to be very leery because I know the NBA has a lot riding on that new arena, especially if Deron Williams leaves New Jersey. They didn't get Dwight Howard. I'm going to be very leery if New Jersey gets that number one pick."
Are you a conspiracy theorist Chuck?
"I am. I am. (laughs) I am."
You think somebody got freezer burned from dry ice in the old ping pong ball days when they put their hand in that?
"You know, I go back to Patrick Ewing, so I believe in the conspiracy theories."
Chuck, you like the way the Bulls have played and you think they're coming out of the East?
"I do think they're coming out of the East. I thought the game last night with Rip Hamilton playing well was a great time. I really think they're the best team in the East. When they play Miami, it's going to be a knockdown, drag-out. I can't wait for that series. I wish we had the East this year. I could have some fun between Miami and Chicago, because you know Chicago's my favorite summer city in the world. I could have a little fun going between those two places. We could have some fun. The thing that's interesting is I have no idea where I'm going in the West. I have zero idea where I'm going in the West. Those matchups are going to go down to the last day of the regular season. I have no idea what two cities we are going to be going to for the Western Conference Finals."
Before we get to the East, is there a sleeper in the West you think can bounce up and represent the West in the Finals?
"The Memphis Grizzlies. They're finally getting healthy. They went into Oklahoma City and beat them. They went into LA and beat them. We've got to wait until they get everybody healthy, but Zach Randolph is rounding into form. I'm not a big Oklahoma City fan because I think they don't get easy baskets. I don't think they can score enough down low. I think you can beat them up down low and score on them. I just don't like jump shooting teams that are not great defensively."
What is it about the Miami Heat that kind of leads you to believe they are not going to represent the East this year?
"I think that LeBron James has to play at a Michael Jordan type level every single night because that team has so many holes on it, between their bench and lack of scoring inside. I said this early in the year, they are only going to go as far as LeBron James takes them. I like Dwyane (Wade). Dwyane's a terrific player. He got a lot of credit for winning the championship, but if you go back and look at that series, and he got the one game where he got 100 free throws, but Shaquille O'Neal and Alonzo Mourning were the difference in that series. So people assume he's the closer to be honest with you, but LeBron James is the best player in the NBA. If he doesn't play at a crazy level and make those guys better, (Mario) Chalmers, Joel Anthony, (Udonis) Haslem, if he doesn't get all those guys off, they can't win, and I don't think he gets enough credit for that."
I have heard many times about star players in the NBA getting their coaches fired. I have never seen it play out in front of the cameras. What did youthink about what happened with Dwight Howard and Stan Van Gundy last week?
"That was one of the most uncomfortable things I've even seen in my life. I thought Stan Van Gundy was wrong for saying it at that particular moment. I'm not big on guys getting their coaches fired, I'm not big on guys getting their coaches fired. Whatever happened with Dwight, I'm not sure, but I've got to tell you something, whoever in upper management told Stan Van Gundy that, they should get fired immediately. To me, that's a scumbag move to have a private conversation with a higher official, and they go back and tell the coach? That to me was one of the most scumbag moves I've ever heard of in the NBA. I use the analogy if the boss came to me and said, tell me my opinion of the show, and if I said Ernie (Johnson) or Kenny (Smith) should be fired, and he went behind my back and told those guys, our relationship could never be the same again. Yeah we might smile on TV and act like everything's cool, but those guys should never trust me again. That's the only way you can equate it. I love Dwight Howard, and I wanted him on the Bulls at the trade deadline. I've lost a lot of respect for him because I feel like he's played like a dog the last several weeks."
What he thinks about Howard denying that he wanted Van Gundy fired:
"I wish he would own that to be honest with you. If he said that, just own it. Just come out and say 'hey you know what, I did say that. Me and coach are not getting along. I want a new coach.' You can't walk up and put your arm around me. I think Dwight has done a lot of stuff wrong in this whole free agent thing, no question but think about this, he should come out and say 'you know what, I did say that' because he acted like he didn't say it. That's what disturbs me the most. Even though someone leaked that information, just own it. Just say 'you know what, I did say that, and I stick by it."

In the 1960s, far from civilisation and regular roads, stripped down desert bikes based on Triumph twins and fitted with high level exhausts, dirt bike tyres and suspension were being used for hard recreational fun and competition on tough terrain.
The Scrambler takes its inspiration from these very bikes.
They were highly competitive and most famously were used by Hollywood superstar Steve McQueen for pleasure and in full competition. Including the 1964 International Six Day Trial (ISDT) in East Germany. We built the Scrambler to evoke that spirit of freedom and escape, carefree times when all you needed was a bike and somewhere to ride.
The Look
Lean and basic, just as the originals were, the Scrambler reflects the look of 1960s Triumph twins, converted by their owners for off-road riding in deserts and open scrubland where the power of the engines could be used to the full.
With its cut down mudguards and black engine finish, the Scrambler has a classic, rebellious style that is loved by so many riders.
Based on our Bonneville the Scrambler's engine is the classically styled parallel twin, as handsome as those 1960s originals, fitted into a tubular steel cradle frame, just as it should be.
High level twin chromed stainless steel exhaust pipes and evocative heat shields are inspired by the 1960s Triumph TR6C Trophy Special.
The wheels are wire-spoke with black rims and hubs and wear dual-purpose tyres. The front is 19 inches in diameter to give that authentic off-road look.
For the Scrambler we retuned the 865cc eight-valve engine to give you more torque at very low revs. It peaks at a strong 68Nm at 4750rpm but keeps producing useful thrust much lower than that, with 90 per cent of its torque on tap from as low as 2500rpm. The power maximum is 59PS, enough for you to get up to all kinds of fun.
Powered by a special version of our twin-cylinder Bonneville engine, the Scrambler is air-cooled and styled like the 1960s originals yet quietly bristling with 21st century technology to ensure it's efficient, durable and easy to use.
Each cylinder has four valves, all operated by double overhead cams making for quieter operation, more accurate valve control and high rev reliability. And the exhaust meets all noise emission regulations but it's free breathing with a note that gives the Scrambler its unique character. So you get a proven and reliable engine, which is the most fuel efficient in our range.
We gave the Scrambler a voice of its own with a crankshaft that differs to the Bonnevilles with a 270 degree firing order. So you get an encouraging, off-beat sound from those twinned high level pipes.
Fuel Injection
It even looks as if it comes with old-style carburettors, but we've disguised the thoroughly modern fuel injection system, which along with the double overhead cams and contemporary internals makes this a highly fuel efficient, as well as engaging engine.
With the exhausts lifted high out of the way it's possible to see the traditional tubular steel, twin cradle frame in all its glory. Classically styled but strong enough to meet modern handling expectations. The engine is bolted in to lend its own stiffness to the frame which creates a ride that's light, predictable and completely engaging.
The pair of chromed shocks we put at the back look classic on the outside but are modern inside. Giving you balanced and effective damping for comfort and controlled handling. And the front forks wear traditional rubber bellows to protect against dirt, while the stubby front mudguard is just like those you would have fitted in the 1960s.
We matched the Scrambler's performance perfectly with a single front disc, providing progressive, confident stopping power without overwhelming you.
Wheels and Tyres
Only wire spoke wheels would do for a classic like the Scrambler so that's what we've fitted, now with eye-grabbing black hubs and rims. There's a 19 inch diameter rim at the front to add to the authenticity and style.
On those are block-treaded tyres, another nod towards the off-road look but with excellent on-road performance in all conditions.
Built to be light and agile yet reassuringly stable when the going gets bumpy. We made the Scrambler forgiving enough to be easy and natural for inexperienced riders but sharp and responsive enough to satisfy even if you're coming to the Scrambler from larger or sportier machines.
Riding Position
The riding position has its roots in off-roading too. We gave the Scrambler high and wide black finished handlebars and footrests raised for better ground clearance. It sits you tall and upright so you are in command either riding around town or cruising along in the country and enjoying the view. It also gives you fine control of the bike when you're hustling it through corners and slipping through traffic because it's so responsive, obedient and easy to control.
Seat Height
The traditional long, flat seat of the Scrambler not only looks the part, it means riders of all sizes can find the ideal position to sit just by sliding into the most comfortable place. This works for the passenger too. There's plenty of room behind the rider without being forced into a single position - snuggle up or sit back, either is fine.
Just as desert racers and enduro riders in the 1960s took Triumph twins and personalised them for off-road fun and competition, we started out with the standard Bonneville and modified it to achieve the classic Scrambler look. As well as studying closely the original Triumph TR6C Trophy Special from the late 1960s, the bike which inspired the Scrambler's high level exhausts.
The current Bonneville itself made its first appearance in 2001 when it was powered by the first 790cc version of the retro parallel twin, but when the Scrambler appeared in 2006 we fitted it with the latest 865cc engine, to achieve the strong torque at low revs we were after. After that it was a case of researching the archives and adding features to give the Scrambler its convincing 1960s style, while ensuring it still rode like a modern Triumph should.
Key Accessories
Single Seat and Rack
Integrated single seat and rack kit, features branded single seat unit with white piping, gloss black rear seat finisher and built in Chrome luggage rack.
Skid Plate
Brushed alloy skid plate for the heritage race feel, clear anodised for durability.
Headlamp Grille
Chrome plated headlamp grille for the traditional 'Classic Scrambler' look. Provides protection for the headlight whilst adding to the retro appeal of the Scrambler.
