So you're overweight, "fat"--to be honest--and you want to start exercising. Before you take off like an overlarge airplane and start preparing for the Olympics trials, stop right there. You may have it all figured out by now, after checking with your friends, the media and finally that fickle fiend known as the bathroom mirror, that a regular exercise program is the only way to fly when it comes to permanent weight loss. That entails working out or otherwise flexing your physical and psychological muscles on a regular basis, perhaps three times a week, or maybe even once per day. But therein lies the rub. How do you get started? How often do you exercise? Most importantly, if you've been very...

Five Palestinian militants have been killed in three separate Israeli air strikes in the Gaza Strip. Israeli officials say they targeted militants trying to enter Israel, near a crossing point in Gaza, and other Hamas militants who were traveling in a car laden with explosives. Noa Meir - a spokeswoman for the Israeli Defense Forces - says no particular Palestinian group was targeted. "It is not a matter of targeting Hamas, per se, but of targeting these terrorists and Hamas are these terrorists. The first attack was against a Hamas terrorist cell on its way to carry out attacks against Israel," she said. "There were secondary explosives from their car, indicating they were on their way to commit...

Several decades ago, a passenger jet approached a Florida airport with the pilot and co-pilot struggling to fix what they thought was a malfunctioning landing gear. The landing-gear light was on, signaling that the gear was deployed; but both men did not hear it actually deploy. As the men sought to understand whether they had a defective landing-gear light or a defective landing gear -- the co-pilot actually taking up a hatch and getting down into the wheel well -- the aircraft kept losing altitude. Too late, a warning alarm sounded and the plane crash, killing all aboard. Quite possibly that tragedy has subsequently saved many lives. For the pilot and co-pilot's actions have been used in flight...

Threesomes are much like bungee jumping. If you walk down the street trying to recruit a bungee jumping partner, you're bound to get very frustrated! Even if you offer large sums of money, many people will turn you down. If your life depended on it and you really had to get a bungee jumping recruit, you'd probably end up snatching someone off the street, threatening him or her; handcuffing them and dragging them to the top of the crane... even if all goes well, after the jump you'd likely be arrested and sued for all you're worth. If you concentrate on those who hate bungee jumping, you'll fail. The trick is to find someone who wants to jump and then make it easy for that person to join you. This...

The original incarnation of the United States Marine Corps (USMC) was born in 1775 during the Continental Congress in a resolution sponsored by John Adams. The USMC fought diligently throughout the American revolution but, after the Treaty of Paris in April 1783, it was dissolved only to be reestablished in 1798. Following this reestablishment, the USMC was involved in military actions against France and Barbary pirates. During the War of 1812, the USMC participated in many naval operations and fought with Andrew Jackson in New Orleans. After the War of 1812, the USMC spent the next few decades protecting a variety of American interests all over the world. During World War I, the USMC had over 30...

SHORT REVIEW: Perhaps its a bad idea to make a film about World War I that has a longer running time than the war itself. REVIEW: There's a great number of things going for this film, too bad none of them made it onto the screen. A story about World War I flying aces shotting it out over France? A chance to see the old planes in action? A possible throwback to an older style war movie? This film offers some exiciting possibilities. It delivers on none of them. This film is a distracted mess. There could have been an engaging story involving the pilots dealing with the grim reality that they were all probably going to die while also living the fleeting lives to the fullest.

The wars of today would be imaginable without the use of military aircraft. Of course, no country can go to war armed with only one type of aircraft. Every nation must invest in different kinds of aircraft ranging from fighter aircraft, bombers, and tankers to observation balloons. Each of the different kinds of planes has a separate role to play. And each of these roles is as essential as the next. While looking at airplanes for defence purposes, one finds that many of the aircraft are multi-functional. For instance, the F-4 Phantom is not only a fighter-bomber. It is also used for the purpose of reconnaissance. It also plays the additional roles of CAS and ECM. Moreover, if such an aircraft seems...

Both the Space Center and Air Force Museum are two of the most popular, yet least publicized attractions in the USA.

However, could they even hold a candle to the popularity of Area 51 as a tourist destination if it were opened to the public?

Today's society relies heavily on an invention taken for granted: radar. Just about everybody uses radar, whether they realize it or not. Tens of thousands of lives rely on the precision and speed of radar to guide their plane through the skies unscathed. Others just use it when they turn on the morning news to check the weather forecast. While radar seems to be an important part of our everyday lives, it has not been around for long. It was not put into effect until 1935, near World War II. The British and the Americans both worked on radar, but they did not work together to build a single system. They each developed their own systems at the same time. In 1935, the first radar systems are installed...

The United States Navy is a very integral part of the United States Armed Forces. The U.S. Navy has played many crucial parts in our nation's history. The U.S. Navy has been the master of the seas for a very long time. Ever since World War I there has not been a navy in the world that can compete with us. However the U.S. Navy was dealt a tremendous blow during World War II when a naval base was attacked at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii on December 8th, 1941. This was a very brutal attack that the Japanese made on the U.S. Navy, but they did not cripple our forces.

Records at the best of times can be thoughtlessly cruel. One which I feel never really accounted for the sterling service delivered by a ship during wartime was that in which the Admiralty record concludes the history of HMS Indomitable. No reference to descommisioning, merely the word scrapped. I can find no record that the Indomitable was ever decommissioned; though many sources report her earlier history. By the time I came to know her, in 1952, she was already feeling her age. I only learned of her distinguied career much later. She was ordered in 1937 as war loomed ever closer. As a modified version of the Illustrious Class Aircraft Carriers already in service Indomitable would carry more...
