Dolly Takeoff of Floatplane - Yikes!!!

feeds@yuku.com (AlleyOop007) — Wed, 16 Dec 2009 00:34:40 GMT

According to the message that accompanied this video clip, the DeHavilland Beaver floatplane landed on grass at this landbound airport to have some scheduled maintenance performed but since its easier to land a floatplane on grass than it is to take one off on grass, a "dolly takeoff" is the solution (note the crash trucks in the "convoy") �...

Severe Damage to Delaware Mt. Wind Farm in Texas

feeds@yuku.com (AlleyOop007) — Sun, 13 Dec 2009 14:55:08 GMT

These photos were made on Dec. 9, a day after strong winds hit the wind farm located in the Delaware Mountains on the west side of Guadalupe Pass near Guadalupe Mountains National Park, Texas. The 40 wind turbines that generate a total of 30 MW of power were supposedly built to withstand 135 mph winds at this location back in 1995 - several were blown completely down and 60% of those that remained standing were damaged. Two trucks with semi trailers were blown over on the...

George at Oslo

Foreign born America-bashing Billionaire George Soros is pushing a scheme to expand the International Monetary Fund's "Special Drawing Rights" to raise more funds to aid global warming special interests. The Special Drawing Rights is a grouping of major currency values held in reserve by the IMF for lending in case of a global financial crisis. Apparently Soros feels that the ten bilion dollars alrady planned for helping developing countries adapt to "climate change"...

On the cultural front:
Administrators of the University of North Dakota are meeting resistance to their plan to retire the logo of their sports teams. For politically correct reasons they decided to retire the nickname and logo "Fighting Siouxs" which they consider derogatory and rascist.
The Spirt Lake Sioux tribe's committee for Understanding and Respect thinks otherwise and recently won a temporary restraining order blocking the move. Some tribal members believe...

but the Dermatologists advised not to make any rash moves.

The Gastroenterologists had a sort of gut feeling about it,
but the Neurologists thought the Administration had a lot of nerve.

The Obstetricians felt they were all laboring under a misconception,
while the Ophthalmologists considered the proposal...
