68-year-old veteran killed in his home‏!

Mr. Chamberlain, veteran killed by White Plains, NY police

TBR--White Plains, NY, Kenneth Chamberlain Jr.
On November 19, 2011, my father, 68-year-old Kenneth Chamberlain Sr., was shot and killed in his home in White Plains, New York.


My father was a 20-year veteran of the Westchester County Department of Corrections and proudly served the United States of America as a Marine. He stood about 5 feet, 9 inches tall, and he suffered from a heart condition.

The events that led to his killing began around 5 a.m., when his medical alert device was accidentally set off, sending a call to the City of White Plains Department of Public Safety. Everything that happened after that was recorded by an audio device installed in my father's home as part of his medical alert system.

When the police arrived at my father's home, he and the staff for his medical alert service told them that there was no medical emergency and asked them to leave. And yet they insisted that my father let them into his home, banging loudly on my father's door for over an hour. On the recording, the police can be heard calling my father a "nigger."

Ultimately they broke through his apartment door and first shot him with a Taser. He was wearing nothing but boxer shorts when the police began their assault against him. Shortly after that, he was shot with two 40-caliber rounds and killed.

My family is asking the Westchester County District Attorney to bring a criminal indictment, and we call on the United States Department of Justice or the New York State Attorney General to prosecute this as a hate crime.

The petition says:

This petition is regarding the upcoming grand jury hearing in the case of Kenneth Chamberlain Sr., an unarmed elderly black citizen who was shot to death by the White Plains Police Department.

This case not only brings into question the policies and practices of this department; but it is an open question whether it was inevitable, particularly in light of the audio tapes and video tapes witnessed by Mr. Chamberlain's family members and attorneys where racial slurs and expletives were used before ultimately shooting him twice in the chest and killing him.

It is imperative that those tapes be made available to the grand jury, and that all other evidence be presented as well. I am concerned that secrecy so far—for example, the names of officers involved have not been released—bodes badly for transparency in this case as it moves forward. Nor am I aware of any public statements about the case from elected officials calling for openness.

Members of Mr. Chamberlain's family and community—and a much wider circle of people who need to know there is fairness in the criminal justice system—seek reassurance that, no matter what the verdict, the process has been open, honest, and just.

We, the undersigned, implore Westchester County District Attorney Janet DiFiore to no longer allow police misconduct, brutality, or criminality to happen in this community and ask that these officers be indicted and charged with murder and civil rights violations.

SENS. BEGICH, MURRAY, TESTER, BROWN & STABENOW HOLD CALL WITH VETERANS(L. BRADFORD)TO DISCUSS VOW TO HIRE HEROES ACT

TBR--Washington, D.C.
United States Senate Democratic
Steering and Outreach Committee
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE




WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Senator Mark Begich (D-Alaska), Chairman of the Senate Democratic Steering and Outreach Committee, U.S. Senator Patty Murray (D-Wash.), Chair of the U.S. Senate Veterans' Affairs Committee, U.S. Senator Jon Tester (D-Mont.), U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio) and U.S. Senator Debbie Stabenow (D-Wash.) joined veterans and veterans’ service organizations from around the country on a conference call to discuss the VOW to Hire Heroes Act of 2011. The bill, which offers a tax credit for companies that hire unemployed veterans and provides job training skills for all service members transitioning to civilian life, is fully paid for.

“Fully honoring our commitment to our veterans means both while they are serving abroad and when they return home – and putting our veterans back to work is a critical part of that promise,” said Senator Begich. “Helping small businesses hire unemployed veterans is just common sense. It eases our veterans’ transition back to civilian life, helps our small businesses, and grows our economy and that why I’m pleased to see so much support for this program.”

“For too long, at the end of their career we patted our veterans on the back for their service and then pushed them out into the job market alone,” said Senator Murray. “The VOW to Hire Heroes Act will give our veterans the job skills to get their foot in the door and incentivize employers to make sure that door is open to them.”

“Veterans risked their lives for this country and it’s our responsibility to make sure they have access to jobs and quality health care when they come home,” said Senator Tester. “It’s our responsibility to make that transition as seamless as possible by connecting veterans with businesses. This bill goes a long way in fulfilling that responsibility and I look forward to the jobs it will create for America’s veterans.”

“Today, the unemployment rate for young veterans is nearly 22 percent—which is simply unacceptable,” said Senator Brown. “Our commitment to our service members shouldn’t end when they return home as skilled, experienced civilians. From leadership experience to technical and scientific skills, veterans are critical to our nation’s economic competitiveness.”

“No veteran should stand at the back of any unemployment line. When we say ‘support our troops’ that can't just be lip-service, we must support them through action,” said Senator Stabenow. “Congress shouldn’t just pass a resolution honoring Veterans Day this week—it should take real action to help America’s one million unemployed veterans get back to work.”

The discussion emphasized Democrats’ commitment to create jobs for veterans and ensure a seamless transition from service in the military to meaningful employment at home.

The unemployment rate for veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan has risen to 12.1% over the last year, representing a quarter of a million veterans. Of those, two thirds are younger than 35 years old. Additionally, it is the youngest group of veterans having the hardest time finding work. In 2010, young male veterans who served during the Gulf War-era II had an unemployment rate of 21.9%.

The VOW to Hire Heroes Act would boost employment opportunities for veterans and help address these issues. Key provisions include:

• Tax credit of up to $5,600 for hiring veterans who have been looking for a job for more than six months, as well as a $2,400 credit for veterans who are unemployed for more than 4 weeks, but less than 6 months.

• Tax credit of up to $9,600 for hiring veterans with service-connected disabilities who have been looking for a job for more than six months.

• Makes the Transition Assistance Program (TAP)—an interagency workshop coordinated by Departments of Defense, Labor and Veterans Affairs—mandatory for service members moving on to civilian life to help them secure 21st Century jobs through resume writing workshops and career counseling.

• Expands education and training opportunities for older veterans by providing 100,000 unemployed veterans of past eras and wars with up to 1-year of additional Montgomery GI benefits for education or training programs at community colleges or technical schools.

• Provides disabled veterans up to 1-year of additional Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment Benefits.

• Allows service members to begin the federal employment process prior to separation in order to facilitate a truly seamless transition from the military to jobs at VA, Homeland Security, or the many other federal agencies in need of our veterans.

Giant Webb Space Telescope Model to "Land" in Baltimore







 
 
TBR-NASA Press Release-Baltimore, MD
Baltimore's Maryland Science Center is going to be the "landing site" for the full-scale model of NASA's James Webb Space Telescope, and it's free for all to see.

The Webb telescope life-sized model is as big as a tennis court, and it's coming to the Maryland Science Center at Baltimore's Inner Harbor from October 14 through 26, 2011. It's a chance for young and old to get a close-up look at the successor to the Hubble Space Telescope in the same size it will be launched into space.

The real James Webb Space Telescope is currently being built, but this model will be constructed in a couple of days. The real Webb will be the largest space telescope ever built. Once in orbit, the Webb telescope will look back in time more than 13 billion years to help us understand the formation of galaxies, stars, and planets.

Experts will be on hand to discuss the Webb telescope's deep-space mission, how it will observe distant galaxies and nearby stars and planets, and the progress made to date in building the observatory. Spokespeople will also be available starting at 10 a.m. EDT and throughout the model exhibition. There will also be educational activities and an "Ask the Scientist" booth in front of the model during the daytime. The Maryland Science Center is located at 601 Light Street, Baltimore, Md. 21230. For directions and more information, call the center at 410-685-5225.

The full-scale model of the Webb telescope was built by NASA's prime contractor to provide a better understanding of the size, scale, and complexity of the observatory. The model is constructed mainly of aluminum and steel, weighs 12,000 pounds, and is approximately 80 feet long, 40 feet wide, and 40 feet tall. The model requires two trucks to ship it, and assembly takes a crew of 12 approximately four days.

The Webb telescope will add to observations by earlier space telescopes, and stretch the frontiers of science with its discoveries. The model's size shows the telescope's complexity and how the observatory will enable the Webb telescope's unique mission.

Imago Dei--Moors, Berbers, Axum and Mestizos

TBR--Leighton Bradford Editor-in-Chief
 The first ascertainable African state to attain power was the ancient empire of Ethiopia, Axum, Abyssinia, etc... For over five thousand years from military conquest and intermarrying, Ethiopia and Kemet (Egypt) established the foundation and the heritage associated with Blacks within the African Diaspora! Carter G. Woodson would have handled this synopsis better than I. All of humanity has contributed to the greatness of this earth! It becomes duly important to shore up past inequalities suspended within a euro-centric reality.

The term Moor when translated from Greek refers to, Mauro's-meaning dark or tanned.  Moors originated from Northern Africa, came to conquer and rule the Iberian [Spain & Portugal] peninsula for 800 years! Was Hannibal Black? I argue he was at least tanned or a light skin brother. There are rumors Vin Diesel or Denzel Washington; may star in upcoming roles, depicting the military genius. Young impressionable individuals of African descent; should see their image in what Hollywood depicts. "Indeed, in Spain (Iberia) and Portugal the indigenous pop. had been ruled until the fifteenth century by the Moors who were both darker skinned and more educated than the natives," Race and Racism, Pierre L. van den Berghe. When the Spaniards came to the America's they had to be of an admixture; moreover, possessed elements of African ancestry! Mestizo refers to a Spanish, African and Indigenous admixture. We interpret the term Mestizos as Mexican. We may have time to discuss Creole, French, Indigenous, and African. Creole culture is a pivotal aspect of not only New Orleans, but around the world.


 The Moors territory of rule stretched from Mali and Niger to present day Spain. Their conquest and existence pre-dates Islam, i.e. The Numidian Kingdom of Maure 3rd century BCE!  Al Andulas a reference used to identify the aforementioned conquered lands of the Iberian Peninsula. I argue that descendants from Al Andulas or the Iberian Peninsula, have elements of Black within them! The conquistadors leading the diaspora of the America's had possible Moorish eugenics scheme. Moors, Berber, and Nubian are interchangeable humanistic, or of African descent distinctions. Let's transition towards an epic scholar Dr Ivan Van Sertima*.

Dr. Ivan Van Sertima [*was born in Guyana, South America.  He was educated at the School of Oriental and African Studies (London University) and the Rutgers Graduate School and holds degrees in African Studies and Anthropology.  From 1957-1959 he served as a Press and Broadcasting Officer in the Guyana Information Services.  During the decade of the 1960s he broadcast weekly from Britain to Africa and the Caribbean. ] http://www.journalofafricancivilizations.com/page/9048 

Dr. Van Sertima [*He also appeared before a Congressional Committee on July 7, 1987, to challenge the Columbus myth. This landmark presentation before Congress was illuminating and brilliantly presented in the name of all peoples of color across the world.]:

July 7, 1987, Van Sertima Before Congress - Challenging the Columbus Myth

*“If we are to have a commemoration, let us take this opportunity not to consolidate a myth, but to open a new window upon the universe of peoples. Let us take full cognizance of other civilizations here in a true cross-cultural fashion so we can really speak of ourselves as true Americans, New World people, because that is what the New World means...the bringing together of all these old-world elements into a new world.”

— Ivan Van Sertima

*Dr. Van Sertima appeared, on July 7, 1987, before Congress to discuss the Christopher Columbus Quincentenary Jubilee Act. Van Sertima, single-handedly, presented evidence to prove that Africans made contact with native Americans long before Columbus, and that Columbus did not “discover”.

 It becomes critically important, within an identity of an altruistic interpretation of blackness, to define our anthropological existence.  It thwarts dehumanizing attributes. The Moors derived from an area within and adjacent to Carthage, i.e., Hannibal conqueror of Rome! Libya, Morocco, and Algeria where near or a part of the territory of Carthage.

Some of the oldest human settlements have been unearthed in Tanzania. The oldest human fossils were found in and around Olduvai Gorge (Oldupai) in northern Tanzania, an area referred to as "The Cradle of Mankind". It is believed to be the birthplace of humanity. Fossils found in this area include Paranthropus bones thought to be over 2 million years old, and the oldest known footprints of the immediate ancestors of humans, the Laetoli footprints, estimated to be about 3.6 million years old. About 10,000 years ago, Tanzania was populated by hunter-gatherer communities who spoke Khoisan. They were joined by Cushitic-speaking people who came from the north about 5000 years ago.

[Berbers (Berber: Imazighen / Imaziɣen) are the indigenous peoples of North Africa west of the Nile Valley. They are continuously distributed from the Atlantic to the Siwa oasis, in Egypt, and from the Mediterranean to the Niger River. Historically they spoke the Berber language or varieties of it, which together form a branch of the Afro-Asiatic language family. Today, varieties of Maghreb's colloquial Arabic are spoken by a large portion of Berbers besides the Berber language itself]. wikipedia 


[Many Louisiana creole families arrived in Louisiana during the Colonial Period following the Slave Uprising led by Toussaint Breda (later called L'Ouverture) in 1791 in Ste. Dominique, later called Haiti. Protesting French Colonial rule - and winning the fight with the assistance, in part of the mosquito, as the French plantation owners most holding land grants from Louis XVI (farming primarily sugar) were succumbing to yellow fever. The slave army of L'Ouverture originally in alliance with the French to exile Spanish and English eventually helped evict them too creating a free Haiti]. Wikipedia

Establishing a cultural identity is crucial to a valued self-esteem! Detractors know and understand, without it, you are subjected to the dehumanizing effect, of social genocide. Anthropology is as much a part of the civil rights struggle or equality, as sitting at a lunch counter in the sixties! This is what I often refer to as, Imago Dei, Latin for Image of God. Translated further, all human beings were created in the image or likeness of God! European history must acknowledge the aforementioned ideals. Moors are individuals of African descent.

A Critical Analysis Of Politics Within Mississippi.‏

TBR--MS  Leighton Bradford  Editor-in-Chief
"I don't give a damn about you being in the military, or being a veteran," MS State Senator, Merle Flowers in a twangy, condescending, nasal voice! Further; after he was told he was acting like a slum lord, refusing to fix several of his properties, and evicting a 8 month pregnant African-American tenant! This was an omen of political things to come, within the great state of MS.? Oppression is camouflaged by the certain niceties of modern living. Meaning, there are still southern Europeans who feel their superior to Blacks and minorities[this includes exploited illegals]. The Clinton /Gore campaign countered this notion. It catches you off guard when your confronted with this nonsense! "You aren't from around these parts," said Merle Flowers, when I spoke to him about a business matter. It was a cliche' message you expected to hear from some relic of the Jim Crow south. He was appointed to an ethics committee within the district he represents. Ironically many of his tenants would beg to differ? TBR recovered a document of a former tenant filing an EEOC complaint against the Senator. A reliable source asks why The Department Of Justice, Civil Rights Division, has not applied the Color Of Law statue? The Desoto Times Tribune reported his opposition to federally mandated re-apportionment, further dis-enfranchising some of the people he represents, The Poor and Blacks!


"Sen. Doug Davis, R-Hernando, said under the plan, his district loses about 21,000 people and District 19, currently represented by Sen. Merle Flowers, R-Olive Branch, loses about 25,000 people in order to meet federal one-man, one-person requirements under the 2010 U.S. Census." Desoto Times Tribune Senate unveils remap, By ROBERT LEE LONG, Community Editor Published: Tuesday, March 8, 2011 1:06 AM CST.


The Desoto County Democratic Party, under the leadership of Samuel William's and Mike Smith, could not save the congressional seat Travis Childers once held. The Blue Dog Democrat took his core constituency for granted, attempting to woo conservative Mississippians, with an ill advised fiscal tough guy approach. He tried to have his cake and eat it to. I remember talking to a staffer of Rep. Nunlee, wondering why no one under 45 years of age, held any distinction, within the Desoto Dem's? The Hip Hop generation and Gen X are severely mis-represented. Nunlee's twenty-something staffer was sharp! My question to the Desoto Democratic Party is simple. WHERE ARE THE DEMOCRATIC VICTORIES? William's a Booker T. Washington alumnus, and retired police officer, left the Memphis Police Association under duress.  Is the GOP happy with the numbers Smith and William's have produced?  Kelly Jacobs, the wild card within this organization, flanks the aforementioned leadership at every turn. A native Californian, once ask to leave the aarp, Ms. Jacobs, lacks the academic or staffer experience, a common trait of Desoto County Democratic officials, but is not afraid to mix it up. She was called a "nigger lover" at a political event! She might be somewhat reactionary in her views? Ms. Jacobs is a walking PR quagmire for the desoto Dem's!

There is even political upheaval within law enforcement. It seems some law enforcement officials scoff at the constitution, and revel in the usurping of individual rights. Dr. Ivan Van Sertima stated, "Every human being has a common ancestor"!


Here is an interesting exchange between Mike Smith Desoto Co. Democratic V.P.  The dynamic duo maintains their status by performing a rushed parliamentary process, without the media or public being aware of it even occurring. Mike Smith , Samuel Williams, and  Jason Harper are always aware of the circumstance. Smith likes to walk up on you, trying to crowd you. During Kelli's redistricting meeting William tried to encourage me to do the number crunching. I told him the extent of the work required compensation, that was the end of that?

Subject: RE: The executive committee replacement was illegal and a non-parlimentary procedure

The ultimate barometer within any field of endeavor is success! Excuse me while I respectfully take off presumed political gloves. Discourse and debate must exist within any august and excellent body such as the Democratic Party. My people have been a part of the great state of Mississippi since before the civil war. I am a fourth generation veteran of a foreign war. For the first time since 1948 a democratic president took the state of Arizona; moreover, as press avail coordinator and co-coordinator for veterans for Clinton/Gore I was associated with this history. To no avail, Mr. Smith has made several unsuccessful attempts to SUCCEED at public office! I am not necessarily suggesting failure, but qualifying his statement of "Ineptness"! I believe it’s important to have more than $410 in the party treasury. Within my critique I never mentioned names or individuals.

He called my home early Thursday morning requesting my presence at a "Tea Party", I supported his request. A cell phone notification was required by Mr. Smith, who stated he would be in attendance, I never saw him. I want whomever reads this to notice the energy wasted in responding to acts that don't elect Democrats, beyond a few within Desoto county and the great state of MS. Honest hardworking people are not being considered? How many candidates have been elected under Mr. Smith's tenure. A democracy means including the multitude within the decision making process, devoid of your own personal hidden agenda of political Success!


Job creation, increasing the wages of labor, creating an infrastructure that supports a descent quality of living, adjusting a right to work state laws, attracting RF and high tech industry. Be it Dubois or Washington, Clinton or Limbaugh, Obama or McConnell, political activity involves ideas that best support a democratic ideal.   The 2nd vice was on a Caribbean cruise, while the Desoto county chairman attended an OFA sponsored event. When at the eleventh hour I deferred a business associate helping the OFA facilitator. The young man should not have been placed in this position to begin with.  Half of the aforementioned leadership was either not in attendance or was selected, beyond reaching outside of a clique. I respect Mr. Smith's vast knowledge within a specified orifice of the human anatomy, but having a matriculated stance within Political Science, and selected to successfully elect William Jefferson Clinton, is summarily an altogether another beast. I have no political aspirations beyond making this a descent place to live, and leaving my kid a future beyond menial labor. My generation will have a voice! Here we come sir, aka brother!


"This week’s feature is on a bill John Mayo wrote and introduced last year, HB 821. John Mayo apparently didn’t think gas prices are high enough in Mississippi, so he proposed raising the gas tax by another five cents!" Ya'll Politics Website

 
There is still a good ole boy network in existence. Oppression is camouflaged by fronting procedural application, to give the perception of concern and remedy. The Desoto Justice Center, EEOC, MS. Office of Attorney General (Jeff Clark) etc... And then there is the dynamic duo of Mike Smith and Samuel William's. If your job is to elect democratic officials, how have they performed? William's comes across as though he is a jovial uncle, but is intimidated by credentialed personnel, and can't relate to empirical political inquiry. The thing about a redistricting learning curve, is you have every ten years of  census reporting to get it right! Jason Harper, MS. Democratic field representative, has some unique qualities about himself, especially when he hung up abruptly, when TBR tried to ask general questions about the party. He has not mastered the concept of the coordinated campaign, and acts as though your bothering him, when fielding political questions. When I helped to develop the coordinated campaign, it relied heavily on experience and expertise within journalism! When Melodee Jackson brought me into the Clinton/Gore campaign, I transferred a degree from the USAF Air University, and was a Political Science Senior at ASU. They implemented a campaign reaching out to every feasible demographic. We brought Danny Devito in to speak and raised $35,000 in one night! The GOP leadership is chillin on a bass boat somewhere, laughing and praising the in-effectual leadership that ensues.  MS State Democratic Party Representative Jared Turner adopted a mass e-mail increasing voter turn out by ten fold! It really helped MS. Governor candidate Mr. Johnny Dupree.  The Desoto County Democratic Party leadership failed to properly endorse Mr. Dupree.

Introducing "Soul Solace" excerpt from the e-book



TBR - Leighton Bradford Editor-in-Chief
All that is seen is their eloquent silhouette in the darkness placed before us. Black love no doubt.  Intimacy bonds the heart and souls of an endearing relationship.  If soul mates could borrow from these delicate moments and save it for the trying effects brought to us in life. There would be nothing a relationship could not handle.  Human nature is afforded companionship, a union of one presumably. It's  use becomes the issue.  Sier uses it to the best of his purpose, and advantage, that is to say love. 

 He gently touches the tight curves of her flesh bound anatomy, thanking God for this Nubian Queen that lies before him.  Eyes meet, souls connect, so smooth is the night, so smooth.  They advance towards places keen, yet considerate.  The sheets adjoins there feeling, thoughts, and deepest sympathies.  Ain’t no tossin’ and turnin’! Just da makin of sweet love.  He places his hand on the nape of her neck, bringing her towards his presence.  A heart felt passion, an intimate reflection, a justified sensuality.  “Every time I touch you, my being becomes transformed Mandee.”  “Each and every time I look into your eyes my soul is pampered.”  The candle clings onto its illumination--a refracted light emerges from the darkness.

  Each is motivated to please the other.  At no time within this piece, are we to understand anything but love.  All of the tension and pressure released, if for just one moment. Naturally displayed so much relief from the on going tensions of a given day.  And then the lady whispers, “How oh lord, would I have ever managed without him?”  The interplay of treasured moments, indicative of the profound beauty, found within Black love.  He says aloud, “Mandee I love you”, “I just love you.” [The Intellectual Property of Leighton Bradford (BE)]

The U.S. needs to lobby for Moldova, Ukraine, & Georgia inclusion within the EU, Creating opportunities for U.S. aviation entities such as (BE), etc..


TBR--Leighton Bradford Editor-in-Chief
США повинні лобіювати Молдови, України, Грузії і включення в ЄС, створюючи можливості для осіб США авіації, таких як (BE), і т.д.

The EU consists of 27 nations, and boast nearly 500 million residents, within its populated scope. With a still recovering U.S. economy, American aviation would benefit from the new markets created by including Moldova, Ukraine, and Georgia into the EU. EU international aviation relations goals as of 2008; expressed by Gilles Gantelet, gave the following synopsis:

"However, airlines still have less commercial freedom when flying to countries outside the EU, and passengers have less choice. International aviation has traditionally been governed by bilateral agreements between individual countries, restricting the number of airlines on the routes concerned, the number of flights and the possible destinations.

To overcome these limitations, the EU is extending its aviation policy beyond its borders. First, any bilateral agreements that are not in line with the freedom of operation deriving from the single market need to be revised to ensure legal certainty and to put all EU airlines on an equal footing for flights to countries outside the EU"(Gilles Gantelet,EU Aviation Rep.).

Moldova has elected Vlad Filat, a pro-western leader. The U.S. & EU should support a christian-democratic ideal. American aviation must look for new markets! Moldova has a common Romanian ancestry, a GNI@ca pita of 1,590 USD, a population of approx. 3.6 million. Georgia and Ukraine's inclusion would help to stabilize the former soviet bloc countries, thwarting NBC (Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical) development and use.

The nine declared EU FAB (Functional Airspace Block)introduces initiatives that contain cost, and facilitate optimum safety, within aviation. A U.S. aviation company(BE) Bradford Enterprises, would assist developing nations secure there role within the EU, by implementing the deming approach. "Monetary rewards are not a substitute for intrinsic motivation" Deming. The aforementioned nation of Moldova, and its EU inclusion, along with companies such as Raytheon, American Airlines, (BE)Bradford Enterprises https://sites.google.com/site/maatbe/home, will help to create jobs in not only the U.S. but the world! (BE) and its research and development(R/D) visionaries could provide R/D for the further development of composites, and their effect on an aircraft's co-efficient of drag. APU's and eco-jet fuels, can be integrated within the cruising speed of an aircraft at altitude, allowing for optimum performance, decreasing fuel consumption. Further details would infringe on a future patented idea. Composites will provide an alternative to aviation grade aluminum.  Sum mum Bonum or greatest good within aviation, would rely heavily on integrated technologies and their optimum use!

If the brilliant President Woodrow Wilson hesitated and embraced isolationism, which is argued not to be the best foreign policy. President Obama's small business initiative lends itself to a better goal. The untapped resources of the African diaspora would ultimately bolster trade! Why should the U.S. accept a trade and global marketing policy that is akin to a hamstrung global isolation aviation agenda?

Американська мрія повинна бути найпопулярнішим мети. Критики не повинні по всій видимості, саме праведним чи цинічним. Середній американський громадянин має право на успіх. Успіх не повинен співпадати з расизмом, нео-дарвінізму, чи консерватизм. Що ви збереження? Приміщення або ідеал, виправдовуючи нерівновага між імущими і незаможними.

Громадські лідери отримують можливість, з ресурсами, пропонованими сім'ї, зі створенням походження Житлова заробітної плати. Я вважаю, пряма кореляція між стабільністю платити більше і, зниження пов'язаних з економічними злочинами. Збереження американській сім'ї недоторканими повинні бути пріоритетними. Опора на благо філантроп або корпоративних капітан соромно. Є цілий ряд людей, які будуть просочуватися. Збільшення заробітної плати не буде перешкоджати компаній нижнього рядка. Реалізація цього плану може зміцнити образ життя працівника. Значення, більше грошей у кишеню окремих осіб, таким чином, більше деталей споживається. Це забезпечило б каталізатором для натурального господарства. Економіки зміцнення до фінансової відповідальності стабілізації середнього будинку сімей.

Останній день издольщина з права на працю держави, перешкоджає прогресу середнього класу. За бажанням зайнятості стала анти-теза союзів і профспілок. Сліпий жадібності обраних, за тіні неявній необхідність стримування особи, від повороту прибутку будь-якою ціною. Останній ділового клімату відображає згадане вище заяву. Як ми прийшли, щоб наші корпоративні львів Ca RTE Бланш, як воно відноситься до вільного підприємництва? Ці передбачається баронів промисловості задоволенням платять в середньому працівник нічого або майже нічого, тим самим, що виходить глобалізації. Наша бізнес-модель не може конкурувати з соціалізовані бізнесу, таких як Китай або Мексика. Сер Томас Гоббс Левіафан, може допомогти нам зберегти це реально, коли справа доходить до влади і грошей. Деякі з них можуть відчувати його тіло працює на суспільство залишається цинічним (Гоббс). Реальність цього цинізму визнає помилковість чоловік. Вірте чи ні, ми іноді не праві. Гоббс намагався попередити нас про не-прив'язав агресії в людство, і необхідність обмежень або контролю. Нео-дарвінізм і його двоюрідний брат, консерватизм, заохочує расову та економічного відділу, поряд з класової боротьби. Ви часто бачимо політиків і журналіста приймаючи удари один на одного по телебаченню, словесні лицарські, "багато що належить зробити ні про що!" Я напевно, що в один момент часу, працівників засобів масової інформації приділяли менше уваги своєї слави, і більшою мірою на отримання історії права.

Працюючих бідних повинно відчувати себе обмеженим, коли є менш привілейованих синів і те і дочка, відправляються в бій ворогові, повертається, щоб заробити мінімальну заробітну плату. Чому бізнесмен відчуваю себе так загрожує платити своїм працівникам гідну заробітну плату Житлова? Людина повинна бути відділений від звіра! Людина має право на існування, він би і ні? Як щодо платоспроможності світло Білл!

Downed Helicopter at Bin Laden Compound - A Cornucopia of Secrets

TBR--RF Cafe contributor



Tail section of U.S. Helicopter during bin-laden raid-Reuters



When I heard about the helicopter that went down during the raid at the bin Laden compound, my first concern after the safety of the crew was that now a high technology aircraft would be available to the enemy for inspection. Even after learning that the craft was "blown in place," I was still worried that unless some high temperature incendiary material like white phosphorous was used prior to the explosion, the pieces remaining would be intact enough to glean useful info. My worst fears were confirmed with the release of photos by Reuters (always sure to post images that could harm the U.S.) showing not just this large section of the tail boom and rotor, but also smiling kids walking around with scrounged parts of airframe and electronics gear. As an engineer who spent many years tearing down other company's designs to figure out how they designed and implemented leading edge circuits (and also checking for patent infringements), I can tell you that a circuit or system does not have to be in full functioning order to yield critical information. Material samples are now available for the stealth skin composition, lamination and attachment methods, and facet angles. Super quiet airfoil and blade shape data is available. Metallurgical studies will no doubt be carried out in Russia and China on the transmission and bearing assemblies. Even fuel and lubrication samples will get a thorough examination. Have you seen the photos of how the FAA reassembles aircraft in a hangar when an accident occurs? Some of our best communications gear is also being reassembled like a jigsaw puzzle. Über top secret circuits will be studied and replicated using information from multi-layer substrate construction, component attachment, and special microelectronics devices formulated and built in über top secret facilities to provide our elite fighters with the world's best equipment (some of which, reportedly, mysteriously blacked out for 25 minutes during the actual raid). Samples of proprietary software and firmware will be reverse engineered as well. Imagine the delight on the faces of Red Army engineers sitting in their labs when they inspect the flight controller system and see all those microcontrollers with "Made in China" stamped on them!.
