 doing it like that...  I tried.  It is better to actually just go to the Ghost Recon Network website and do it...  plus you can unlock free items by doing certain stuff on the website.  Also...  I think the only thing joining a Task Force does is let you get the Task Force Challenge reward...  which this week is the Evil Sun T-shirt.  So if you are not interested in getting that shirt you don't need to make a Task Force yet.  2 weeks ago IIRC the Task Force Challenge reward was a unique USA themed light machine gun...  so that was pretty awesome.Dakin Matthews

Israel said it would permit the “limited export” of farm produce from the Gaza Strip yesterday, as well as trucks carrying clothes and fabrics to leave.
In today’s Second Reading Paul reminds us that when we become believers in Christ we can no longer live in the same way. In today’s Gospel we see Jesus extending that invitation to the crowds for whom he had just multiplied the loaves and fishes, yet they were still seeking a sign like the one recalled in today’s
