Thousands attended the 2009 Amigo Airsho at Biggs Army Airfield over the weekend to see aerial demonstrations and static displays of military and civilian aircraft. New this year was an appearance by the F-22 Raptor, while the F-15 Strike Eagle performed high-speed maneuvers. Historic aircraft on display included the B-17 Flying Fortress and P-51 Mustang. Military vehicles and equipment were also shown. The airshow featured a variety of aerial acts, including a jet-powered school bus and wing-walking.
The ability to conduct long-range strike operations has long provided the United States with a decisive military advantage over its enemies. Today, that advantage is dissipating. Despite the crucial role long-range strike capabilities have played in our nation’s wars over the last seventy years, it is unclear whether the United States will make the investments needed to sustain this advantage in the future.

Workshop presentation given by Niels Lohmann on September 7, 2009 in Ulm, Germany at the 5th International Workshop on Business Process Design (BPD 2009); part of BPM 2009.
James Floyd Smith designed more parachutes, for more companies, than any other human being.
1884 - 1956.
He is the father of the parachute industry.
He was and is “Mr. Parachute”.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Floyd_Smith
Floyd Smith was the John Browning of parachute design. From 1916 through 1955, he designed most of the basic parachutes for four major parachute companies and the U.S. Army Air Corp.
Dan recites the development of the personnel parachute from Leonardo da Vinci (1495) up to modern times and chronicles Floyd Smith’s contributions to the modern parachute.
Floyd Smith was honored by the Parachute Industry Association in 2007 with the PIA Achievement Award (posthumously).
A tribute to a fascinating parachute designer.
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.

Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.
