Legendary Gunmaker Files for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy : Kaitlyn Schallhorn

Colt Defense LLC announced Sunday night that the 179-year-old company is filing for bankruptcy.

The firearms company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Wilmington, Del., and Colt officials say they plan to restructure financially during this time. This process, according to a press release on Colt's website, will allow for the "accelerated sale" of the company's business operations in the U.S. and Canada.

"The plan we are announcing and have filed today will allow Colt to restructure its balance sheet while meeting all of its obligations to customers, vendors, suppliers and employees and providing for maximum continuity in the Company's current and future business operations," Keith Maib, Chief Restructuring Officer of Colt Defense LLC, said in the release.                                                                                                                                                                                         "Importantly, Colt remains open for business and our team will continue to be sharply focused on delivering for our customers and being a good commercial partner to our vendors and suppliers," Maib said. "We look forward to successfully executing on this plan, which provides a sound path of stewardship for an iconic American brand and the key stakeholders we serve."

According to Bloomberg, Colt, the maker of M4 and M16 military rifles, reported in an earlier filing that the company was struggling financially due to delays in U.S. government and foreign sales. A change in demand for sporting rifles and commercials handguns also reportedly contributed to the noted company's financial woes.       http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-06-15/colt-defense-179-year-old-gunmaker-files-for-bankruptcy     http://news.yahoo.com/legendary-gun-maker-colt-files-bankruptcy-172317457.html

In the press release, Colt said Sciens Capital Management LLC will act as a "stalking horse bidder" for the company's assets and liabilities. Colt's current management team is to remain in place.       http://www.sciensam.com/                                http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2015/06/15/legendary-gunmaker-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/   

Re: Who was your first love?

My first real love was 3 years older.  He was funny handsome and a really good guy.  Didn't hurt that he had a good ride. LOL! 
Fickle as I was as a teen I dumped him.  I regretted it almost from the moment I did it.  However, he was on his way to a new life.
He went on to make the Olympic Ski jumping team.  Unfortunately, I will never have the chance to apologise for my stupid teen behavior....he died at the age of 27 in Mid Air of a jump.  Sad really Sad.  But it taught me a great deal.  

I tried 6 times to post this, and kept getting some silly green panda!

Hershey to Cut About 300 Jobs, Lowers 2015 Revenue Outlook : ABC News

Hershey is expected to cut about 300 jobs by the end of the year as it looks to simplify its operations. The candy maker also cut its revenue outlook for the year.

Its shares fell more than 3 percent in afternoon trading Friday. The company has approximately 22,000 employees globally.

The company did not specify where the job cuts would come from, but said manufacturing operations are not included in the plans.

"Removing cost and complexity from our business will make us more flexible to quickly react to changing consumer and competitive marketplace trends," Chairman, President and CEO John Bilbrey said in a written statement.

The chocolate and candy maker — whose brands include Reese's, Twizzlers and its namesake — said that it will face an estimated $100 million to $120 million in pretax charges related to the job cuts. It anticipates $65 million to $75 million in savings, mostly in 2016, and plans to reinvest part of the funds back into the business.                                   http://abcnews.go.com/Business/wireStory/hershey-cut-300-jobs-lowers-2015-revenue-outlook-31884158

Informant: Ohio ISIS recruit ready to cut off head of own non-Muslim son : Joe Newby

on.aol.com
In an FBI complaint against 38-year-old Amir Said Abdul Rahman Al-Ghazi, an Ohio man arrested Friday, an informant alleges the man, formerly known as Robert C. McCollum, said he would cut off the head of his own non-Muslim son to prove his worth as a Muslim, Breitbart.com reported Saturday. He was arrested and brought up on charges of supporting the militant Islamic State terrorist organization.  http://www.examiner.com/topic/ohio

http://www.breitbart.com/national-security/2015/06/20/ohio-isis-recruit-was-ready-to-cut-off-the-head-of-his-non-muslim-son/

In a conversation with one informant, he allegedly said his faith allows him to "behead Christians, Jews, and Atheists." Last year, he reportedly said that if war broke out in the United States between Muslims and non-Muslims, "he would cut off the head of his non-Muslim son if necessary."      http://www.scribd.com/doc/269157414/Al-Ghazi-Complaint   http://www.examiner.com/topic/behead

According to the FBI complaint, he was allegedly interested in attacking a police station, but said he would need another "100 brothers" to make the attack happen. The complaint said that between July 2014 and June 2015, he made multiple statements on social media indicating his "allegiance to, affiliation with, and desire to act on behalf of ISIL." The complaint also says he reportedly told another undercover informant that he was planning a Boston Marathon-style attack and needed help to secure weapons and bomb-making materials.

He also expressed hope the attack against Pamela Geller's "Draw Mohammed" contest in Garland, Texas, had been successful, the report adds. "If the Texas bros had maybe 6 more with them it may have been a different story," he said, according to the FBI report.     http://www.examiner.com/article/report-isis-praises-gunmen-foiled-garland-terror-attack                             http://www.examiner.com/article/informant-ohio-isis-recruit-ready-to-cut-off-head-of-own-non-muslim-son  

Report: Iranian Jewish woman cut in half, media silent : Joe Newby

On Thursday, Israel Radio reported that a Jewish woman in Isfahan, Iran, was murdered and cut in half by Muslim extremists who wanted to take over her home.  http://www.israelhayom.com/site/newsletter_article.php?id=6571       http://www.examiner.com/topic/iran

Israel Radio said that according to relatives, the woman lived next to a newly built mosque, and worshippers "had demanded that she and her family leave their home so the mosque could be expanded."      http://www.examiner.com/topic/mosque 

The woman complained to authorities, and in response, a group of thugs came to her house, murdered her and allegedly cut her in two.

"The event left the Jewish community in Iran, estimated to be around 25,000 people, worried and fearing escalating violence against it," Israel Radio said.

Daniel Greenfield reminded readers at Frontpagemag.com that Jews and Christians in the Muslim world are "protected".   http://www.frontpagemag.com/2012/dgreenfield/jewish-woman-in-iran-cut-in-half-for-refusing-to-turn-over-her-home-to-a-mosque/ 

"They pay protection money in the form of Jizya. And they're not persecuted too much, unless they don't make way for a mosque or unless Islamists take over," he wrote.

"This is your life. This is your life under Islam," he added.

While the report has been picked up by a number of blogs, the so-called "mainstream media" has remained silent.            http://www.examiner.com/article/report-iranian-jewish-woman-cut-half-media-silent
