Excerpt: Aurora Aurora (SR-91 Aurora) is the popular name for a hypothesised United States reconnaissance aircraft , alleged to exist and be capable of hypersonic flight. According to the hypothesis, the Aurora was developed in the 1980s or 1990s as a replacement for the aging and expensive SR-71 Blackbird . A British Ministry of Defence report from May 2006, released under the Freedom of Information Act , refers to USAF priority plans to produce a Mach 4 6 highly supersonic vehicle. In September 2007, DARPA and the USAF signed a memo of understanding to build a Mach-6 unmanned aircraft called “Blackswift ” under the Force Application and Launch from Continental United States (FALCON) program, but that does not explain the earlier reports. It is believed that the Aurora project was canceled due to a shift from spyplanes to high-tech unmanned aerial vehicles and reconnaissance satellites which can do a similar job as a spyplane, but with less risk of casualties or loss of highly expensive, sensitive equipment. On April 23, 2010, the US Air Force carried out a test launch of an umanned hypersonic glider, the Falcon Hypersonic Technology Vehicle 2. The Falcon’s reported ability to use sound waves to propel it up to speeds of Mach 20 (20,000km/h) have led aviation insiders to claim it may be the official use of the Aurora’s

Sports And Games Of The Renaissance $55 The Renaissance was a period of extraordinary spirit and development that marked a critical stage in the history of sports and games. In Europe the development of a moneyed economy and more refined methods of timekeeping ushered in a new era of leisure and leisure-activity, in which the old tradition of the Shrove Tuesday Football match deepened in the cultural consciousness. In Asia, Sumo’s gradual codification began to develop alongside ancestors of the modern game of hackey-sack. In North and South America, European explorers saw how traditional team sports and games such as lacrosse and pelota could serve as an integrating and uniting phenomenon. Series editor Andrew Leibs provides narrative chapters on Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, North America, and Oceania, each of which shows how modern-day form of recreation evolved during the Renaissance. In addition, readers will learn how to play games that had been previously lost to history.This volume is the latest installment in the Sports and Games Through History series. Each geographically arranged chapter describes sports, games, and rituals of play, along with descriptions on equipment and instructions for making or adapting game pieces.

Excerpt: A BOSU Balance Trainer , or BOSU ball as it is often called, is a fitness training device, invented in 1999 by David Weck, consisting of an inflated rubber hemisphere attached to a rigid platform. It is also referred to as the “blue half-ball”, because it looks like a stability ball cut in half. The name is an acronym which stands for “BOth Sides Up” a reference to the two ways a BOSU ball can be positioned . The device is often used for balance training. When the dome side faces up, the BOSU ball provides an unstable surface while the device remains stable. This combination of stable/unstable allows a wide range of users, from the young , elderly, or injured to the elite level athlete . With the dome side up, the device can be used for athletic drills and aerobic activities. As the name suggests, the device can also be flipped over so that the platform faces up. In this position, the device is highly unstable and can be used for a wide array of exercises as well. Criticism Very little controlled research on healthy populations has been done on training with the BOSU ball
