  • FWS Hurricane Katrina Fund
    Service Works to Save Lives, Provide Aid in Katrina’s Wake Approximately 150 Fish and Wildlife Service employees are assisting other government agencies and relief organizations in the massive Hurricane Katrina recovery effort in southeast Louisiana and along the Mississippi Gulf Coast. In the days since Katrina’s landfall, FWS employees have cleared miles of roads and emergency corridors to speed relief aid to citizens, operated boat rescue missions in New Orleans, supported search and rescue efforts throughout the impacted area, and provided food and lodging for emergency personnel and relief volunteers. “We’re continuing to focus on community assistance activities and support the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s overall recovery effort,” said Matt Hogan, Acting Director of the Service. “Service personnel were in the area within hours of the storm coming ashore and we’ll help as long as we’re needed. Our people live here too.” All Service personnel have been accounted for, although more than 20 employees have lost their homes or been displaced. Preliminary estimates suggest the damage to FWS refuges and facilities in the area affected by Hurricane Katrina now exceeds $90 million, although not all stations have been assessed. Sixteen National Wildlife Refuges and other assorted Service hatcheries, field stations and offices across the region remain closed due to the damage they sustained from the hurricane. The FWS response to the disaster has been rapid, aggressive, and varied. Earlier this week, FWS crews opened roads to Louisiana Heart Hospital and now are providing 200 meals a day to that facility, as well as to 100 Marines assigned to the area.

SMITHSONIAN STUDIES IN AIR AND SPACE • NUMBER 2 SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of "diffusing knowledge" was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues in the world of science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world. Papers or monographs submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscripts are given sub­ stantive review.

  • Made in Italy AIRBOAT
    How fast do Airboats go? Some Airboats can reach a speed of over 120 M.P.H. Dryground capabilities work in a range of 7:1 Power effige.com to weight ratio or less. For example; If your boat weighs 2100 lbs and is running 300 hp (provided Land and Sea! you have good polymer on the bottom) you will probably be able to run on dry ground. Different terrain causes different friction which is the prime limiting external factor. How does it work? www.airboat.it The latest theory of perpetual motion has been researched and finally breaking news release through airboat and hovercraft technology (Mostly hovercraft)...have discovered the conceptual Hover engine what is called the PMCPU (Perpetual Motion Cat Power Unit) Drop Start. It is simple. Parameters of continuous laws working with Dr. Murphie indicate that: 1. A piece of buttered toast when dropped always lands buttered side down. 2. A house cat when dropped always lands feet down. So. .if the scientists securely fasten a prop to the rear end of a common house cat (using csa approved cat/prop fasteners) and securely attached a piece of toast (buttered side up) to the back AIRBOAT (Spine area) of the cat, (mechanical lingo: 181 degrees advanced of the paws or 179 degrees if right hand rotation required for prop rotation). If the cat was then turned upside down and dropped onto the holding shroud of the hovercraft with an initial slight rotation. Here are the projected results as forecasted by Dr Murphie’s team: This thing should hover at high speed displacing thousands of cubic feet of air / second and dial in a low lapse time of 5 seconds on the quarter mile!
