Here it is.... the eventual conflict between competitive sports and gender hoopla. A transgender pre-op guy wins a woman's cycling race. Is that good for women? For sports? Or is it time to get sports co-ed?

So either you're finding that letting a trans woman compete in a womens sport is accepting her as a woman, .................. or you are ok that no one with a vagina will ever win at sports ever again. Jonathan/Jillian Bearden, pre-op, 36-year-old biological male dominated the women’s division of the Nov 2016 El Tour de Tucson, an annual cycling competition in Arizona that attracts thousands of amateur and professional cyclists, winning the 106-mile race in 4 hours and 36 minutes, 25 minutes behind former Mexican Olympian cyclist Hugo Rangel, who took home first place in the men’s division. That's right, a professional male cyclist who feels like a woman was the winner of a woman's race, and was that close to the time of a Olympic cyclist after 106 miles On the other hand, in June 2016, Alaskan high school girls felt cheated after teenage male Nattaphon Wangyot took home all-state honors in girls’ track and field. Wangyot immigrated from Thailand. Is allowing pre-op men to

Dave L. Rogan, AC, 1st Squadron recalls:  "On May 28, 1945, General A.W. Kissner, Chief of Staff, 21st Bomber Command, wrote to General Keller Rockey, Fifth Marine Division, that as a token of respect and appreciation of the great contribution made by the Fifth Marine Division in the taking of Iwo Jima; they desired to name a new B-29 for the them, and to inscribe the Division Insignia on the plane.  Our crew was selected for this honor and crew 11A was proud to have a new ship named “The Spearhead”. The brass of the Fifth Marine Division and the 9th BG got together and had a dedication ceremony on Tinian, August 17, 1945. About 100 Marines including their band took part. “The Spearhead” also took part in the ceremony. All in all, it was fun, and since our crew led many missions, “The Spearhead” was an appropriate name. Its two waist gunners were twins (Burton and Langdon Dyer) and as far as I know, were the only twins to fly combat missions together." 25 missions, scrapped i

A Powerful 1967 Chevy Nova II SS with a 454 / Photos and Specs

1967 Chevy Nova II SS Right out of the 60's muscle car era is this fine looking 1967 Chevy Nova II SS with a 454 cubic inch engine. The 1967 model Nova is from the second generation which ran from 1966 through the 1967 model year. The Chevrolet Nova had been known as an economical and compact car. With that being said, put the right engine in this vehicle and you had yourself a true muscle car. The rise to muscle car fame by the Nova II was not something deliberately planned but the car nevertheless did achieve that status.  The 67 Chevy Nova II SS was a relatively light car with a lot of power. For 1967 the top of the line engine for the Nova Super Sport was a 327 cubic inch V-8 delivering 275 HP. There were a total of five generations of the Chevy Nova running from 1963 through 1979 and then from 1985 through the 1988 model year. Engine options were plenty, five in all. You also had the choice of three transmissions. Engines included a 194 cu inch inline six, 230 cu inch inline
