On The Brink Of A World War
Just when you think it can't get any worse, it has gotten worse. Since George W. Bush decided (illegally) to launch a war against a country and its civilians, under the guise of fighting terrorists, the American people have learned one thing: Might makes right. Our children are taught to reason and compromise rather than fight. Now, they are being taught that if you want your way all you have to do is lie, mislead, and fight for it if you must. What a terrible lesson. And how much more violence will it bring to America, where we already lead the world by a hundredfold in murders and violent crimes?Look what our American government has created. After the horrific bombings of 9/11, America waited and...

A Look At Some Of The Newer Lines Of Collectible Cars
For all of those who retire to the television for hours at a time to gaze at colorful machines whizzing around an asphalt track, the idea of taking a front seat to the action is quite enticing. However, for most this is just a childhood or even grown up fantasy which is unlikely to result in the shifting of gears and pit stops to frantically change smoky tires. For some, there may be a way to quench, or at least wet, the thirst for first hand NASCAR excitement: diecast cars.In today's modern market of video games and computer overuse, there is a concept being revived in popular culture: the collectible car. While many may remember the days of the matchbox car, few children today can appreciate the...

Success at Work: Techniques: Computer Literacy
It's hard to believe that there are people in today's workforce who don't know how to use a computer. In today's society, being computer illiterate is equivalent to being functionally illiterate. Obviously no one reading this article is computer illiterate, but maybe you know someone who thinks they can avoid computers and still be successful at work.Let me tell you a story about a good friend of mine back when I worked at Motorola. The company moved the manufacturing of automobile alternators offshore, resulting in his transfer to my department. Although he had about 20 years with the company, this was to be his last stop before being booted out the door.He was assigned to me as an Electronics...
When We Was Kids In Chicago
Radio was the big communicator, back when I was a kid. Whole families huddled around the speaker of that hulk. Our minds, working like a cotton picker on a hot summer day. We had imagination. Vivid, plentiful thoughts, moving throughout the story which was being broadcast.The characters, were like people we somehow knew. People who lived right down the street from us, in the three story apartment building. That apartment building, was a warehouse of eclectic personalities, popping from every floor, and every door.Old cars, now relics of the past. New, when we were young. Cool cars too, metal so thick, you could hurt your hand just bumping into it. Lasted a long time, and made moving about the big...
Secrets of Thermoforming
Are you aware that some of the things we use in our everyday lives are plastics? When we talk about convenience, durability, efficiency, stability, usefulness and practicality now days, we use plastics.One example of it Zip-lock plastic bags for storing left over foods and use for packing foods when going outdoors. Another one is, Coleman or Rubbermaid coolers use to keep preserve foods while camping outside or going out of town and water jugs to keep our beverages cool and a handy gadget outdoors.And a lot more of plastics used for everyone's convenience. But these are not just ordinary plastics! We make sure its durable; reliable, tough, helpful, easy to use and it costs less than other products...

How to Build a Plastic Model Airplane
Plastic model airplane building is a hobby that appeals to a wide variety of people and age groups. From the youngster building his or her holiday gift to the veteran re-creating a piece of history. Following the basic instructions is generally a good place to start, but there is a whole world of knowledge beyond the instructions. Here are some tips for creating a better-looking model: Wash the parts first. The parts are made by injection molding, and are covered with a release agent to help un-stick them from the mold. This agent will prevent paint from sticking well to your model. Wash the parts in soap and water, then air dry. You can use a hair dryer to help. Cockpit. Assemble...
Business Lessons From History
Harry Truman stated, "The only new thing in the world is the history that you don't know." Truman spent many years studying the history of those who preceded him. His study paid off. Truman today is regarded as one of America's greatest Presidents. The reason history is important is because we live in a cause-and-effect universe. Similar choices produce similar results at the individual (micro) level and at the national (macro) level. History is the story of choices made, and the results of those choices. LESSON ONE: Look For What Worked And What Didn't Work, And Why You can use history like a case study in business school. Example: Mark Twain became a partner in a publishing company...
Dachshunds: The Weiner Dog
The Dachshund is a dog breed within the hound family and is known for its short legs and elongated body. The German name "Dachshund" literally translates as "badger dog". Dachshunds were first used to hunt and chase badgers. In the United States, they are sometimes called "wiener dogs" or "hot dogs" due to their shape.Dachshunds weigh from 16 to 32 pounds, though Miniature Dachshunds usually weigh less than 11 pounds. "Tweenie" refers to the group that falls between 10 and 15 pounds. Dachshunds are only 9 inches tall, though they are longer than they are tall.

Herman Goering the Air Czar
Herman Goering was the most popular figure in Nazi Germany. He was second only to Hitler in his importance. He was Hitler's Deputy and official successor, erector of the Nazi air force, and the super economy minister. It is amazing that there isn't any book dedicated to his part in the annihilation of the European Jewish People. As chairman of the Reichstag he signed the 'Nuremberg Lows'. As 'general inspector on the matters of Jews in the Reich', he was the person who wrote the order of the final solution and the chain of orders that lead to it. He transformed the Gestapo to a major dictatorship enforcment tool; He was the leader in exploiting forced labor, assets robbery and more. The...
Simulation Games
Simulation games create a whole new world to explore, one that is virtually realistic. They represent a virtual environment, with virtual characters having interesting and life-like interactions between the various components of a virtual world. The graphics and sounds are often amazingly close to reality. Everything seems real, from the weather conditions over the Pacific in air combat games to the geography of lands in strategy games.They are a new, higher pedestal of gaming, often combining elements of skill, chance and strategy, (like for a civilization building game), wherein real as well as fictional worlds may be simulated and often you see the world through the eyes of a fictitious character...

Aerial Photographs
It is fascinating to take a photograph from far above, where people are like little ants, and buildings are like miniatures. Aerial photography allows you to do that and so much more! These photographs are taken from above the earth with a camera placed on aircrafts, satellites, balloons, rockets, kites, skydivers, etc. The French airman Nadar took the first aerial photograph in 1858; a picture of Paris taken from a hot air balloon. In World War I, aerial photography was used for military purposes. The aviator Fred Zim was one the famous aerial photographers at that time. Today it is used such purposes as land-planning, cartography, movies, advertising, environmental studies, and more.The technology...

Army Mobile Command Center for UAV Launch
After visiting the Denver RC Modeler Club one day as they practiced for the national finals in PHX that year, we attempted a touch and go landing on our Blitz Mobile, which is a 74 foot long NASCAR type truck and trailer. Probably nothing more than a Fighter Pilots son from the cold war wanting to re-invent the aircraft carrier concept on a almost nano scale? We were successful on doing a touch and bounce on the top of the trailer without too much difficulty. It appears that a tractor trailer rig specially designed with panels on top which folded out ward to extend the length of the flat surface on top would be adequate to launch and recover many hundred small UAVs. These UAVs could be launched one...

Have You Ever Wanted to Fly an RC Airplane?
Flying rc airplanes and helicopters has become a hugely popular pastime in recent years, and more and more people are discovering the hobby on a global scale.The letters RC stand for radio control, and refer to anything that is controlled by radio signals that are sent out from a transmitter to a receiver.You'll often see rc referred to as 'remote control' but this is technically incorrect. Radio control is the correct term.RC airplanes and (especially) rc helicopters have traditionally been expensive to buy, and you had to have a fair amount of model-building knowledge to know how to assemble a kit from plans, not to mention knowing how to install the radio control gear properly and of course the...

The Bill Of Rights Is Wrong ... Since When?
Walter Murrow was my hero, one of them really, when I was very young. I picked my heroes carefully. This small knowledge of picking your "role models" carefully was ensconced by the Boy Scouts of America. My membership in the Boy Scouts was almost mandatory. By my family. Me mum was a Scot.The Bill of Rights is wrong! Since the last election. One where, I admit, though for the good of this country in a way, at least at first. (yeah, I typed that easy enough:) I thought, although I knew that as a normal rule, the Republican choice, (one of only two for us, but not by law! Too bad.) would be best at this time in America. I was not wrong about that! If the Democrats had been in office during the day...
The hobby of flying model airplanes with remote radio control and electric power has become very popular with the advent of efficient motors, batteries and inexpensive radios. Ready to Fly (RTF) planes and helicopters can be so inexpensive that almost anyone can afford to buy one. But, of course, you get what you pay for and sometimes a very cheap price leads to a disappointing product.The magic dollar amount for a RTF electric airplane is around $50 with offerings below that being mostly toys that fly for very short times and with minimal control. If you are starting out, you'll want to get an RC plane that will withstand the rigors of harsh landings, that can be repaired with spare parts...

In the Wake of Katrina: For Mature Christians Only!
One reason the rescue and relief effort regarding Katrina has been handled the way we're seeing it is because of the Spirit of Confusion that has settled over that region. As you know, we battle not against flesh and blood (Eph, 6:12). But we cannot expect the government and law enforcement agencies to understand this. Heck, most Christians don't even have a handle on this truth.Over the centuries, there's been a whole lot of witchcraft practiced down in the Gulf Coast, not to mention the mockery of what is commonly referred to as "Carnival," a word meaning, "to remove flesh" which has actually come to stand for sowing TO the flesh. In other words, during the week before Lent - a time intended for...

Why Is Music So Bad Today?
"Everything that can be invented has been invented." ~ Charles H. Duell, Commissioner of the US Patent Office in 1899."Children nowadays are tyrants. They contradict their parents, gobble their food and tyrannize their teachers." ~ SocratesWhy is popular music so bad today? I mean, I'm not that old, but jeez, the music of today, with only a few rare exceptions, kinda stinks. Some would say that when New Year's Eve 1979 ended, we were ushered into an era of lame music that we still haven't escaped from today.I grew up in the 80's and remember listening to the Beatles, John Lennon, Simon & Garfunkel, Roger Waters and Pink Floyd, the Rolling Stones, Bob Marley, and David Bowie, to name a few, with my...

The UAV, Unmanned Aerial Vehicle is hear to stay and they are rapidly replacing the glory days of the fighter pilot and soon, there will be no humans in military aircraft flying the planes. Here is a quick overview of UAVs and all the new types. Hopefully these few links can catch you up on the subject to understand the future of these units. you can see quite quickly there are many types of UAVs and each works on a little bit different principle of flight. Also be aware that each aircraft is a compromise, speed for stability, payload for size and power, this has always been a fact of aerospace design. Now realize that these relatively easy to build units have different functions. UAV are generally...
Gas
In the U.S., gas is the short form of gasoline, while in many Commonwealth countries, it is known as petrol. Gas is a petroleum-derived liquid mixture that consists of hydrocarbons and is used as a fuel in internal combustion engines.There are different types of gasoline in the fuel industry. Small aircrafts use specially formulated, high-octane aviation gasoline, which cannot be used for ground vehicles. Vehicles involved in racing use specially formulated racing gasoline that has very low levels of benzene and an anti-knock index of at least 100. Gasoline used for scientific research has unusual properties, which depend on the nature of the research. Cars with gasoline engines use E85 gasoline...
Types Of Aerial Photos
Aerial photography is broken down into two main types, oblique and vertical configuration. Oblique refers to pictures taken the side of an aircraft and vertical images are taken from directly above the subject being photographed. Vertical aerial photography is normally used in real estate advertising. The process of taking photographs in the air from an aircraft is called aviation photography, as is taking pictures of aircrafts themselves. The main types of aviation photography are:Air-to-air PhotographyThis type of photograph is used most often in advertising and entails taking pictures of an airplane from different angles. Of course the photographer is in another aircraft, since there has to be...
Battling Loneliness
One of my favorite hours each week is the one I have the honor and privilege of sharing with a group of men who live at a local long-term care center. I was invited into their lives via a call placed to the Retired Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP).Someone was needed to help facilitate a discussion group for this group of men, all of whom had seen combat in World War II, Korea, or Vietnam.It didn't take many get-togethers for me to realize that these men had a lot to say. However, like many men of a certain era, they were not initially eager to speak of much other than women, food or baseball. With time and trust, the content deepened emotionally. I started to see the group as less about veterans and...
Living with Resolute Determination
James Allen (1864-1912) wrote, "Where faith is, there is courage, there is fortitude, there is steadfastness and strength."How can you live with a resolute determination and steadfastness when you feel stuck or overwhelmed with uncertainty?First, keep a sharp mental focus on your intended outcome. When problems arise, solution-focused thought allows continued movement in accurate directions.If you feel stuck, adjust your perspective to view the broader landscape of possibilities available. It is easy to loose site of all the options.Imagine standing in a basin of giant sequoia trees. These living miracles of strength and endurance seem to leave you feeling powerless and insignificant. They limit...

Common Methods Of Vehicle Tracking
