I sure loved this job - help desk technician at a roughly 90% Mac organization (of roughly 2,000 machines). Here I was building new disk images on the new Thunderbold machines (well, new at the time this was taken).
This mosaic which was found during the zeugma excavations sin1992 long before Zeugma became a current issue, became the symbol of Zeugma because of the mysterious look she had in her eyes.Wheeeeeeen it could not be identified it got named “Gypsy” because of the women’s resemblance with gypsies. But some sources draw attention to the winein the mosaic and claim that it is GAIA the Goddess of the Earth. Ýn Mythology it is considered that GAIA is the first element allgod’s ancestors have derived from.Although GAIA has a major role in Hesiodos’s Theogonia, it is never seen in Homeros’s poems.According to Heiodos GAIA without a male element gave birth to the sky’Ouranos) and the mountains and also Pantos the personalized element of the sea.After the birth of the sky GAIA coupled with him and therefore all her children became real Gods and were not just simple elements of power first six titans Okeanos,Koios Krios.Hyperion,Ýapetus and Kronos and six ttitanids; Theia, Reia, Themis, Mnemosyne, Phoibe, Tehys were born. All of these are feminene Godlike creatures.The youngest one of this generation is Kronos.Ýt was followed by Kyklops.These were godlike creatures that ruled the thunder, Lightning, thunderbold,There names were; Arges, Steropes and Brontes.And at last from Ouranos’s loves gigentic Hekatogkheirs were born.They were much for violance and hand hundred arms.
We had an absolutely fantastic time at this amazing air show yesterday. As you can see the weather in the first half of the show couldn't have been better, then some clouds rolled in....but I can't complain at all. This was our second year in a row to this show, and it has quickly become one of my favorites. As you'll see, we were treated to 11 Mustangs in the air at once, a P-38, the only flying B-29 in the world, an F-86, Art Nalls' 100th flight in his Sea Harrier, and an amazing line up. I'm already looking forward to seeing what they have in store for 2013!

The McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II is a tandem two-seat, twin-engine, all-weather, long-range supersonic jet interceptor aircraft/fighter-bomber originally developed for the United States Navy by McDonnell Aircraft. It first entered service in 1960 with the U.S. Navy. Proving highly adaptable, it was also adopted by the U.S. Marine Corps and the U.S. Air Force, and by the mid-1960s had become a major part of their respective air wings.
The Phantom is a large fighter with a top speed of over Mach 2.2. It can carry more than 18,000 pounds (8,400 kg) of weapons on nine external hardpoints, including air-to-air missiles, air-to-ground missiles, and various bombs. The F-4, like other interceptors of its time, was designed without an internal cannon. Later models incorporated an M61 Vulcan rotary cannon. Beginning in 1959, it set 15 world records for in-flight performance, including an absolute speed record, and an absolute altitude record.
During the Vietnam War, the F-4 was used extensively; it served as the principal air superiority fighter for both the Navy and Air Force, and became important in the ground-attack and aerial reconnaissance roles late in the war. The Phantom has the distinction of being the last U.S. fighter flown to attain ace status in the 20th century. During the Vietnam War, the U.S. Air Force had one pilot and two weapon systems officers (WSOs), and the US Navy had one pilot and one radar intercept officer (RIO) become aces by achieving five aerial kills against enemy fighter aircraft. The F-4 continued to form a major part of U.S. military air power throughout the 1970s and 1980s, being gradually replaced by more modern aircraft such as the F-15 Eagle and F-16 in the U.S. Air Force, the Grumman F-14 Tomcat in the U.S. Navy, and the F/A-18 Hornet in the U.S. Navy and U.S. Marine Corps.
The F-4 Phantom II remained in use by the U.S. in the reconnaissance and Wild Weasel (Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses) roles in the 1991 Gulf War, finally leaving service in 1996. It was also the only aircraft used by both U.S. flight demonstration teams: the USAF Thunderbirds (F-4E) and the US Navy Blue Angels (F-4J). The F-4 was also operated by the armed forces of 11 other nations. Israeli Phantoms saw extensive combat in several Arab–Israeli conflicts, while Iran used its large fleet of Phantoms in the Iran–Iraq War. Phantoms remain in front line service with seven countries, and in use as a target drone in the U.S. Air Force. Phantom production ran from 1958 to 1981, with a total of 5,195 built, making it the most numerous American supersonic military aircraft.

Los 100 años de la aviación dominicana se celebro durante los días sábado 26 y domingo 27 de marzo, con la exhibición del Show Aéreo del Caribe 2011, un grandioso espectáculo aéreo en el que participarán pilotos acróbatas y aviones de varios países, a lo largo del malecón capitalino, entre las avenidas Máximo Gómez y Abraham Lincoln, en el horario de una de la tarde a siete de la noche.
“Este Show Aéreo es un esfuerzo por brindarle a la población un espectáculo de primer nivel que, a la vez que muestra la capacidad y destreza de pilotos acróbatas y la belleza y poder de las más célebres máquinas de la aviación civil y militar, nos une en la celebración por los 100 años de la aviación nacional”, aseguró Arístides Fernández Zucco.
El show, que se ofrececio totalmente gratuito, homenajea al ingeniero Zoilo Hermógenes García (Mogito), nacido en la localidad de La Vega, quien en 1911 realizó el primer vuelo en un nuevo poliplano diseñado por él, que superó al creado por los hermanos Orville y Wilbur Wright, considerados los padres de la aviación.
El primer vuelo de Mogito en su poliplano, escenificado en las afueras de la ciudad de Nueva York, despertó elogios de la naciente industria aérea norteamericana, y ha sido tomado como origen de la aviación en República Dominicana.
El espectáculo aéreo, el de mayor participación y complejidad realizado en el país, contará con la presencia de los famosos equipos de acrobacia aérea Fred Cabanas Aerobatics, Rob Holland Ultimate Airshows, Skip Stewart Airshows, Jack Knutson Aerobatic, Greg Shelton
Airshows, Iron Eagles Aerobatics, Team Aerostar, Lima Lima flight Team, Firebirds Extreme y Matt Younkin Airshows, todos integrados por pilotos de reconocimiento en EEUU y otros países en los que actúan.
Además, estarán participando representantes de la aviación militar internacional como
F-15 Strike Eagle Demostration Team, los A-10 Thunderbold de la USAF Reserve, el C-130 Hércules Air National Guard Puerto Rico, el UH-60 Black Hawk pertenecientes a la Guardia Nacional de Puerto Rico, y la US Coast Guard con una demostración de rescate.

Boevenpad
De dag wordt mede ondersteund door de ondernemers. In diverse winkels kan meegedaan worden aan ‘het boevenpad’, een thematische speurtocht voor ouders met kinderen in de basisschoolleeftijd.
*De Harvard is tot nu toe, met totaal meer dan 20.000 exemplaren, het meest gebouwde lesvliegtuig ter wereld. De toestellen zijn ingezet bij diverse speelfilms. Vaak vermomd als Fokker D-XXI, Thunderbold, Typhoon of Folke Wulf 190.
The Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II is a single seat, twin-engine, straight wing jet aircraft developed by Fairchild-Republic for the United States Air Force. Its official name comes from the Republic P-47 Thunderbolt, a fighter particularly effective at close air support. The A-10 is more commonly known by its nicknames "Warthog" or "Hog". The A-10 was designed for close-in support of ground troops, close air support, providing quick-action support for troops against helicopters, vehicles, and ground troops. It entered service in 1976 and is the only production-built aircraft that has served in the USAF that was designed solely for CAS. Its secondary mission is to provide forward air controller - airborne (FAC-A) support, by directing other aircraft in attacks on ground targets. Aircraft used primarily in this role are designated OA-10.
The A-10 was intended to improve on the performance of the A-1 Skyraider and its poor firepower. The A-10 was designed around the 30 mm GAU-8 Avenger rotary cannon, which is its primary armament. Its airframe was designed for durability, with measures such as 1,200 pounds (540 kg) of titanium armor to protect the cockpit and aircraft systems, enabling it to absorb a significant amount of damage and continue flying. Its short takeoff and landing capability permits operation from airstrips close to the front lines, and its simple design enables maintenance with minimal facilities. The A-10 served in Operation Desert Shield, and Operation Desert Storm, the American intervention against Iraq's invasion of Kuwait, where the A-10 distinguished itself. The A-10 also participated in other conflicts such as Operation Urgent Fury in Grenada, the Balkans, Afghanistan, Iraq, and against the Islamic State in the Middle East.
The A-10A single-seat variant was the only version produced, though one pre-production airframe was modified to become the YA-10B twin-seat prototype to test an all-weather night capable version. In 2005, a program was begun to upgrade remaining A-10A aircraft to the A-10C configuration with modern avionics for use of precision weaponry. With a variety of upgrades and wing replacements, the A-10's service life may be extended to 2028.

We had an absolutely fantastic time at this amazing air show yesterday. As you can see the weather in the first half of the show couldn't have been better, then some clouds rolled in....but I can't complain at all. This was our second year in a row to this show, and it has quickly become one of my favorites. As you'll see, we were treated to 11 Mustangs in the air at once, a P-38, the only flying B-29 in the world, an F-86, Art Nalls' 100th flight in his Sea Harrier, and an amazing line up. I'm already looking forward to seeing what they have in store for 2013!
