This is a first impression of one of the largest aviation events held each year in the world with over 770,000 people in attendance and 25,000 aircraft. To say it is overwhelming is an understatement so today's story is an attempt at giving you an overview of the experience. This story will take time to load as it contains 78 pictures and a QuickTime VR panorama.

Tim's Tip of the Day

We actually have to remind ourselves of this simple every day fact of life: we are all in this together, everything we do and everything everyone else does affects everyone one way or another. We must always ask ourselves what are we doing to make things better and what should we do not to make things worse.

Kevin's find of the day

A wedding party in New York gets a little wild when the bride loses control and is arrested for criminal mischief. Here is the ABC report of her court appearance, the actual police report and the arrest report.

Ensign Notes

Infrastructure on this site often consumes more time than its stories. Slugging away.

A Woman's View: Same Sex Marriage
Wednesday, August 27, 2003
by: Barbara Reid
Barbara noted that "With all the current serious concerns to pay attention to, such as the Blackout, floods, all the fires, etc., and disrupted lives, this same-sex thing is rather ridiculous to be spending so much time on." She felt it was time that we heard what a woman, a "mom," a "misses," has to say about this contentious topic that will take up a lot of time when the house sits this fall.

Oshkosh - First Look
Sunday, August 24, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire & Andrew Shire
We arrived in Oshkosh the first day of the enormous Experimental Aircraft Association convention, AirVenture 2003 on July 29th. This story deals with the impressions and sights of that day. My goal was to see the legendary Chuck Yeager and as you can see I got what I was after.

Thank you again Professor Paul Krugman: Some clarity on the $38 billion California budget deficit
Sunday, August 24, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
Californians got seriously burned in the ENRON scandal which was partly to blame for the energy crisis their state experienced. The campaign is on to oust the governor but Professor Paul Krugman suggests that the truth may be getting in the way of a good campaign. This one you have to read the references to get the story.

An upside down world led by the finest liars
Friday, August 22, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
Prior to the US invasion of Iraq there was no terrorism in the country now it is an everyday occurance, as the country is still almost entirely without power, unemployment is the norm and now even the UN attempting to bring aide to the place has taken a serious hit as the man who had been expected to succeed the Secretary General is a victim with many others including two Canadians. Mr. deSantis leads us to consider some of the underlying issues, be sure to check out the references.
