The Wright Brothers, Wilbur and Orville Wright, were pioneers of aviation. They opened a bicycle shop and taught themselves about flight by studying the work of previous aviation pioneers like Otto Lilienthal. Through experimentation and building miniature gliders, they developed theories on how to control an aircraft. On December 17, 1903, the Wright Brothers achieved the first successful controlled, powered and sustained heavier-than-air human flight, flying 120 feet in 12 seconds near Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. Their innovations included creating their own wind tunnel for testing and devising a pulley control system for the aircraft.

The Caterpillar Club The silk worm is a caterpillar; until 1941, parachute canopies were made of silk. Aviators who used parachutes to escape disabled aircraft were awarded a small gold Caterpillar pin and were inducted into the Caterpillar Club. This presentation traces the origin of the Caterpillar Club and recounts the fascinating stories of people who were saved by a parachute. For example, you will discover how a future president of the U.S. was saved by a parachute in WW-II and how Charles Lindberg joined the Club four times before making his historic trans-Atlantic flight. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caterpillar_Club Dan Poynter is past president of the Parachute Industry Association, past chairman of the Board of the U.S. Parachute Association and past president of the International Hang Gliding Commission. He has written more than 120 books; seven on parachutes and skydiving. A pilot, skydiver and master parachute rigger, this Certified Speaking Professional (CSP) is a frequent speaker at aviation and other events.

Mahmoud Alhujayri Dustin Crawford English 2010 2/28/2017 “History of Aviation the Wright Brothers” Claim: Wright Brothers started the history of aviation. Reasons: · Bishop Wright one day brought Wilburn and Orville Wright a small toy helicopter that was made up of wood and two curled rubber bands as a small propeller. Both the brothers played with it until it broke. After that, they made new copies of toys themselves. They also sold their toys to their friends. So it developed an interest of flying in them. · Wright Brothers started the printing business in 1889 together but after 3 years they started the business of bicycle. They started selling repaired bikes initially. They establish their own brand in 1896. By working on bikes Wright Brothers generated an idea of flight. · They used the technology about which they got knowledge from bicycles on airplanes. · That technology included spoke wires, sprockets, chains, and ball bearings. From bicycles they learned to balance and control their aircraft. · Orville and Wilburn Wright performed different experiments to fulfill their dream of inventing an aircraft. · They also learned different techniques to control aircraft such as they realized the need of 3 axes of motions. · Orville and Wilbur got this idea from the flying bird. They saw the birds twisting and curving their wings. · They also performed Kite/glider Experiments. · In 1899 the Wright Brothers began their research on aeronautical research. They used to test their notions of aircraft with a small kite having a five-foot wingspan. They built a machine in 1900 that carry a pilot in it. · Their 1900 aircraft was not that successful so they flew it as a kite and collected information to improve the functioning of their machine. Assumptions: · Innovators made several assumptions about the development of flight. Since all the animals that fly have wings so innovators though of developing strap on wings. To test their assumption they would have to jump from the tall building. · Some other innovators built flying machines and took years to build costly prototypes. All of them failed during the testing process. · The modern innovators can learn from the approaches adopted by Wright Brothers. · The Wright Brothers were flawless experimenters. · They adopted simple and low-risk ways to test their assumptions. · Wright Brother flew kites to test their assumptions. · The Innosight advised a big consumer product company to deliver a device to centralized points on campuses. · The business plans were assumed to take 3 months to get approval to sell their devices at school. They could pilot the idea at dew schools. But school slowly processes that approval because they assumed to approach it differently. Backing: · As Wright Brothers started their aeronautical research in 1899, the first aircraft they flew was a kite. · Their first experiment did not produce less lift than expected. They tested small wing model to simulate fl ...

In this webinar, Felipe Mondragon from Tech Impact shared the basic understanding of how cyberattacks happen and how to prevent them. Small to medium-sized nonprofit organizations are specifically susceptible due to their lack of cybersecurity policies and staff training. The good news is that there are lots of things you can do to protect your organization, even if you’re not a security expert.

The presentation titled "Liberal and Radical Feminism" by Rizwan Abbas from GHAZI University, Dera Ghazi Khan, Pakistan, provides a comprehensive overview of both liberal and radical feminism. Liberal Feminism Contextual View: - Emerged from liberalism, rooted in the political and intellectual doctrines of the Enlightenment in 18th century Europe. - Emphasizes individual rights, reason, and progress. Liberal Scholars and Contributions: - Classical: - Mary Wollstonecraft (1759-1797): "A Vindication of the Rights of Woman" (1792) - John Stuart Mill (1806-1873): "The Subjection of Women" (1869) - Harriet Taylor (Mill) (1807-1858): "Sexual Equality: Writings" - Contemporary: - Elizabeth Holtzman (1941- ): "The Case for Impeaching Trump" (2018) - Bella Abzug (1920-1998): Lawyer and activist - Eleanor Smeal (1939- ): President of the Feminist Majority Foundation - Patsy Mink (1927-2002): American attorney Central Concept: - Advocates for equality of opportunities and rights for all individuals. - Argues that inequality is culturally embedded. Conclusion: - Highlights the achievements in women's rights due to liberal feminism. - Stresses the need for changes in social and psychological structures to overcome sexual differences. Radical Feminism Introduction: - Aims to eliminate male supremacy in the socio-economic sphere. - Views patriarchy as entrenched in social norms and perpetuated through political processes. Notable Radical Feminists: - Andrea Dworkin, Mary Daly, Phyllis Chesler, Jill Johnston, Monique Witting - These feminists advocated for women to have governing power over both men and women. Aims of the Movement: - Expanding reproductive rights, including abortion and birth control. - Ensuring women's autonomy in making choices free from male pressure. - Challenging traditional gender roles and societal concepts of femininity and masculinity. - Ultimately, radical feminism seeks to eliminate the concept of gender entirely.
