Chapter XXV-Flying Machines Construction And Operation reflects a pivotal moment in aviation where advancements in engine technology significantly reshaped aircraft design. In the time since this book's initial release in 1910, rapid progress in motor development allowed for aircraft to operate with far smaller wing surfaces than before. This shift stemmed from both a drop in engine weight and an increase in engine power, enabling planes to achieve higher speeds while requiring less lift-generating area.…-

Chapter IV - Flying Machines Construction And Operation presents a clear comparison of the three principal types of manned flying machines: aeroplanes, helicopters, and ornithopters. Each model approaches flight through a distinct mechanism, but not all methods yield practical or efficient results. Among them, the aeroplane rises as the most successful, both in design application and operational reliability. Helicopters are recognized for their ability to ascend vertically using rotating blades, allowing…

Chapter 7: The Ticker: Confronting—and Preventing—Heart Disease, the Deadliest Killer on the Planet
Chapter 7 of The Ticker delves into the hidden dangers of cardiovascular disease (CVD), emphasizing its gradual development and the critical need for early intervention. The author recounts his personal experience with heart disease, revealing a strong family history of cardiac conditions that shaped his awareness of its risks. Despite adopting a healthy lifestyle, his medical evaluations exposed underlying vulnerabilities, highlighting that CVD is not solely influenced by diet and exercise but is also…-

Chapter XV - Flying Machines Construction And Operation opens a timely discussion on aviation’s perceived danger, an issue often inflated by public imagination. Early flight stirred both fascination and fear, and this chapter seeks to realign perception with reality. Rather than promoting flight as entirely safe or inherently dangerous, it acknowledges the balance between risk and innovation while encouraging responsibility among pioneers of the sky. The notion that an aircraft becomes a falling…

59. Starship Surge
Starship Surge became a defining moment in SpaceX's journey toward revolutionizing space travel, with the ambitious goal of rapid rocket reusability taking center stage in July 2021. At the heart of this push was Mechazilla, a towering launchpad structure equipped with massive chopstick-like arms designed to catch the returning booster of Starship instead of relying on ocean landings or complex landing legs. Musk's vision for this innovation was driven by the belief that for spaceflight to be truly…-

RFCs
RFCs serve as the architectural blueprints of the internet, shaping the way systems communicate and evolve. Initially, they were simple memos exchanged by a tight-knit group of researchers. Today, they form a globally recognized documentation system that governs internet protocols, innovations, and standards. Every protocol that allows your browser to talk to a website or your email client to fetch messages is based on one or more of these documents. Their legacy lies not just in what they define, but how…-

Chapter XXVI-Flying Machines Construction And Operation offers a focused look into the evolution of early aviation, particularly the gradual but notable shift in American aircraft design. While biplanes had dominated the scene for years, interest in monoplanes began to rise, especially following the success of Curtiss and others at the 1910 International meet at Belmont Park. Though American entries in the monoplane class were limited, Curtiss's own single-wing creation drew considerable attention. His…

Chapter V - Flying Machines Construction And Operation walks readers through the foundational process of designing and constructing a practical gliding machine. It introduces essential structural choices and suggests starting with a biplane layout, given its balance between simplicity and performance. With a manageable frame and ample surface area, the biplane helps beginners grasp core aerodynamics without being overwhelmed by complexity. A biplane glider is effective because it divides the necessary lift…

Chapter 8 of The Runaway Cell – New Ways to Address the Killer That Is Cancer begins with the remarkable case of James DeAngelo, a patient from the late 1960s who unexpectedly survived metastatic stomach cancer despite receiving no medical treatment. His survival puzzled doctors and led researcher Steve Rosenberg to explore the role of the immune system in combating cancer, a theory that was largely unproven at the time. Despite facing numerous setbacks and failures in his research, Rosenberg's…

Chapter XVI - Flying Machines Construction And Operation offers a detailed view into the transformative period of aeronautics where engineering refinement and rivalry accelerated progress. Rather than resting on their initial success, inventors, particularly the Wright Brothers, pursued better flight control, improved aerodynamics, and greater mechanical efficiency. As global interest in aviation surged, these pioneers were driven not only by ambition but by the need to remain ahead in an increasingly…
