Amber Dawn Frey Hernandez (born February 10, 1975) is an American woman who came to national prominence as the girlfriend of, and later as a prosecution witness against, Scott Peterson during the well publicized investigation into the disappearance of his wife Laci Peterson in California. Scott Peterson was convicted of his wife's murder and is currently sitting on death row.
Amber Frey had believed Scott Peterson was unmarried when she began a relationship as his lover. On December 8, 2002 Scott Peterson had told her that he was a widower.[1] Over the next few weeks she noticed inconsistencies in his descriptions of his life, particularly when a Christmas present shipped to her residence in Fresno, California came packaged with a shipping invoice that listed a billing address in Modesto, California.[2] He had told her he lived in Sacramento, California. She also grew suspicious about his tendency to telephone her from his bathroom while water was running. On December 26, before Amber Frey knew of Laci Peterson's disappearance, Ms. Frey ran a computer search on Mr. Peterson's identity with the help of a friend. They were unable to determine which was him among several men with identical names. That evening she followed up with a telephone message for a police officer she knew named Richard Byrd to ask for his assistance

On September 4, 1976, Bush was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol near his family's summer home in Kennebunkport, Maine. He admitted his guilt, was fined $150, and had his driving license in the state suspended for two years, implying two prior convictions. [The White House had claimed 30 days, the document shows two years.] [5] This incident did not become public knowledge until it was reported in the press in the week before the 2000 election.

Bush acknowledges 1976 DUI charge
November 2, 2000
Late Thursday evening, following a campaign rally in this tightly contested Midwestern state, Bush--with his wife, Laura, at his side -- told reporters news accounts of the incident were accurate, that he had been drinking in a bar with Australian tennis pro John Newcombe and others.
Bush said the timing of the initial news report, just days before Americans elect a new president, was "interesting." When asked where the story may have originated, he said, "I've got my suspicions."
Karen Hughes, Bush's spokeswomen said the 54-year-old Texas governor, who has been open about his past drinking problems, had not publicly disclosed the arrest because not even his 18-year-old twin daughters were aware of it.
"The timing of an announcement like this, four or five days away from the election about an incident 24 years ago, which the governor's daughters don't even know about, is certainly questionable," Hughes said.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_14
Apollo 14 was the eighth manned mission in the Apollo program and the third mission to land on the Moon.
Shepard's moonwalking suit was the first to incorporate red bands on the arms and legs and a red stripe on the top of the lunar EVA sunshade "hood", so as to allow easy identification of the commander while on the surface; on the Apollo 12 pictures, it had been almost impossible to distinguish between the two crewmen, causing a great deal of confusion. This feature was on Jim Lovell's Apollo 13 suit, but because of the accident, this was not used. It was used on the remaining three Apollo flights and is used on both the U.S. and Russian spacesuits on both the Space Shuttle and International Space Station.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_Carrier
Landing system
Another British invention was the glide-slope indicator (also known as a "meatball"). This was a gyroscopically-controlled lamp (which used a Fresnel lens) on the port side of the deck which could be seen by the aviator who was about to land, indicating to him whether he was too high or too low in relation to the desired glidepath. It also took into account the effect of the waves on the flight deck. The device became a necessity as the landing speed of aircraft increased.

On last nights 4 corners I noticed the following:
1, an F/A 18 doing a catapult carrier take off with what appeared only one engine at full afterburner, the other at partial a/burner, is this done if the T/O weight is low?2, on the other cat, another F/A 18 launched with the pilot holding his right arm fully extended in front of him, at or above shoulder height, this was maintained until the A/C was airbourne".Why is it so?" (J.S-M)
Subject: re: Some aviation questions post id: 386138
The 'extended arm' is quite normal for jet cariier take-offs.
The purpose is two fold.
Firstly, it is to stop the pilot accidently retarding the throttle when the aircraft accelerates down the catapult.
Secondly, the pilots tend to keep their hands off the flight controls for the same reason. As soon as the aircraft has cleared the deck, the aircraft automatically commences a gentle climb and bank. This is when the pilot will once again take hold of the flight controls.

OAK HARBOR -- Two words. A snippet of a sentence, a phrase that lifted them higher than the lumbering Air Force C-141 could ever soar.
"Feet wet!" came the call. And in plane after plane, shouts of joy erupted as each "Hanoi Taxi" crossed the coastline of Vietnam.
Thirty years ago today, the first wave of prisoners of war came home from Vietnam. Dubbed "Operation Homecoming," it saw the release of almost 600 of the 801 Americans captured during the war.
Today at Whidbey Island Naval Air Station, the freedom flights will be marked by a symposium and panel discussion hosted by a half-dozen or so Vietnam POWs. It's a hot ticket for people in uniform: Roughly 400 or more sailors and Marines are expected to attend.
Richard "Skip" Brunhaver, the pilot of a Navy A-4 Skyhawk, recalled being on the second flight out of Hanoi on Feb. 12, 1973. He spent 2,729 days, more than seven years, as a prisoner of war, most of them in Hoa Lo prison, better known as the "Hanoi Hilton."
He was 25 when he was captured -- his fighter-bomber went down because of mechanical trouble in August 1965 -- and 33 when he went home as part of Operation Homecoming.
No cheers came from on board when his plane took off from Vietnam, bound for Clark Air Force Base in the Philippines.
"We had developed so much cynicism over such a long period of time, you never knew," Brunhaver recalled. "You thought there might be some trick going on."
Brunhaver, now 62, said the mood changed once the plane crossed the coast.
"When we hit 'feet wet,' we knew it was for real. About that time, your brain clicked over and said it's time to start living again."

'Star Trek' props live long and prosper

CBS Paramount Television Studios is offering more than 1,000 lots including about 4,000 items for the auction. Christie's expects to raise about $3 million from the sale but says the "emotional fury" is hard to gauge.
It's only plastic? Christie's will be auctioning the Enterprise this way: "A model of the Starship Enterprise-A, made from a modified plastic hobby kit--22 inches by 11 inches by 6.5 inches--used in visual effects production for 'Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country' and in earlier Star Trek movies. Estimate: $15,000-$25,000."
