Still nearly surrounded by water, life in this historic (1851) city (population 27,069) centers on the river. If you like magnificent views of our river valley, head to Garvin Heights Overlook. The view from 575' above the Mississippi is 20-30 miles up and down the valley, as a Japanese journalist said, "makes your jaw drop."
Because the Mississippi brought great wealth to Winona early, its commercial and residential buildings are of an opulent style not common in Minnesota. Many also boast fabulous interiors and stained glass windows made by Tiffany and other famous studios. Writers have called Winona the "Stained Glass Capital of the United States!"
There are over 100 sites on the National Register in Historic downtown Winona. Besides many city parks like Garvin Heights, the Winona area is central to five state parks (Minnesota-3, Wisconsin- 2), and two national wildlife and fish refuges: Upper Mississippi River National Wildlife and Fish Refuge and Trempealeau National Refuge.
Recreational facilities in Winona complement those in the parks. Great golfing at 3 courses plus area courses nearby. Exceptional swimming at the Bob Welch Aquatic Center, a state of the art Olympic-size pool including a 209 foot water slide. Winona has many scenic bike routes with a special 5.5 mile paved path around 300-acre Lake Winona. Brochures highlighting Winona and area bike trails also points out canoeing opportunities.
The Mississippi near Winona is a maze of bays and channels with some places so secluded that there is no sign of civilization. Fishing is excellent, and more than 290 species of birds can be found.
Festivals and events include Frozen River Film Festival, Great Dakota Gathering and Homecoming, Steamboat Days, Great River Shakespeare Festival, Minnesota Beethoven Festival, Swan Watch Weekends, and more. Many events are provided through Winona State University and St. Mary's University. Simply Beautiful: Winona, The Island City on the Mississippi River!

Praise the Lord with us!
is a brief history of the Lord's provision:
On January 5, 2015, our staff got back into full swing following the holidays. Waiting in the mail for us was a check from another donor whom we had never met. This donor requested that the funds be used, first and foremost, for our home office needs. This check was more than enough to get us to our $160,000 goal!
Needless to say, our staff members were overwhelmed, abundantly rejoicing over the Lord's provision through this donor. On January 8th, Kevin Callahan and Matthew Barfield took a day trip to meet the donor and his wife in person and then to hand deliver the $160,000 check to the donor who was double matching the funds. It was a day of rejoicing for all!
Please join us in our rejoicing. Pause right now to praise and thank the Lord for His abundant provision!

we used french curves to draw them ,it is a semi symetrical foil and fairly thin for the size of wing .....thick enough to get the gear in . have been drawing our own foils for years ...so far we have'nt missed yet ,C/N has done 2 other F-5's so he know about what is needed .....but we might not be able to tell you why we did it that way ...neither of us have a eng. degree....thats why we just work on full scale planes...but i did sleep in my own bed last night if anything it looks like a eppler foil.....guessing some where between 7%-9% thickness.@ 3 degrees of washout .

OK, I noticed some secrecy here, I couldn't get Nut to cut me a set or share the templates so I could build a plane with this wing. That's cool, it's probably not that critical, like you say, just enough to get the gear in. I don't think you could "miss" with a jet, I bet this thing would fly with a flap piece of foam.

Dionysus, I can't speak for CN or Air Sally here but I have been doing my own airfoils for years using the same methods that AS just described. I draw a straight line to the length of the chord, then draw another straight line vertical at about 30% of the chord line. The length of the vertical line is determined by the percentage of thickness of the wing, i.e., if the chord is 12 inches, with 10% thickness, then the vertical line is 1.2 inches in length. If the foil is symmetrical, then .6 above the chord line and .6 below. If semi-symmetrical, then you choose what looks about right for you. I set the leading edge radius with a TLAR calibrated eyeball keeping in mind that a sharper leading edge will tend have a sharper stall break. Then connect all points with French curves and straight edges. You'ld be amazed how well this works. No secrets!

Thanks Tony.
I'm going to use Profili 2, it makes it easy. I'm going to use the NACA 64-008A.
Just for reference the T-38, F-20 and F-5 use the root = NACA 65A004.8 and tip = NACA 65A004.8
Found some stuff in my T-38 searches.

Profili works great too. I am not proficient in CAD so I hand draw my plans. Its more of a pain to copy and print Profile outlines and then transfer to my hand drawn plans.

what?! C/N wont give you a wing template ???? he must have lost it ,there was nothing secret about it i bet he'd make a set of cores for a F-86 cockpit personally i think we should make a semi kit for this plane

i never said i wouldnt give him the airfoils, not sure where he got that. i sent him a pm.
|Apr 26, 2012, 06:28 PM
I'm sure that CN is among many others that just manipulate existing airfoils to serve their needs. I am guilty of this myself...when someone ask, it is a modified Clark Y.

The flat plate guys have shown a lot of good use with just... flat plates as wings! I think however once the wing begins to earn it's keep, aka the wing loading going up and or G loading increases, and or speed is reduced to 20 percent above stall speed and lower, etc... a real airfoil begins to show it's advantages. Subtle changes can make a difference but how much and how can you tell when flying from a remote position with a model? And what is a "real airfoil"? That's debatable for sure!
Some anecdotal tales of small airfoil changes making big differences are like with the Grumman AA-1 Yankee; they changed the leading edge radius just a little to tame the stall from early models and lost about 10 knots in cruse speed. The DC-8 initially had a different leading edge and to make promised fuel burn and cruise numbers the leading edge was reduced in radius a little and then modified on older birds and brought forward into new models as standard. For models, in an old thread I recall where a guy made a B-58 in 2002 he initially just made a flat bottom wing and he noted the model was "a dog". He then modified the wing to include the scale-like conical leading edge droop and was delighted to see cruise speed increase and partial throttle performance improve noticeably. Yeah, so I guess I fall in the "airfoil geek" camp where I believe some differences can be expected from notable changes in an airfoil, the larger/heavier the model the more notable. But for sure I think a french curve and a "that looks about right" (TLAR) method will be far and away "good enough" for decent performance in a model airplane with a moderate wing loading.

Eddie, with these relatively large jet models, wouldn't reynolds numbers come into play? Thanks,

Understand of course that the airfoil you started with on the template may not be the airfoil you end up with after glassing, sanding and painting
|Apr 27, 2012, 10:48 AM
|Apr 27, 2012, 09:02 PM
I agree with Eddie P.
For the most part... When you are talking about powered models in the lower Reynolds numbers range. If you mount a telemetry device and flew untold hours, allowing for all the atmospheric variables, you would see a difference. But when using the calibrated eyeball ground observation method...
Go to the "serious sailplane forums", not the clueless foamy crowd, and read the discussions on airfoil selection. There is a huge difference when you do not have a fan pushing you around.

What connects the IT department, the marketing department, and legal professionals, not to mention numerous other parts of the business? Data. With so much personal user data out there, marketers can have a field day, but they still need the IT department to get hold of the data for them, and both departments need to comply with data privacy legislation.
Living in Europe, we're protected by comprehensive laws that specify what kinds of data can be held by companies, how that data is collected, how long it's held for, and who it's passed on to. In the United States however, it's another story. There is no one comprehensive privacy law in the States, instead there's a 'patchwork' of laws, with individual States having their own privacy laws, the Federal government have various sectoral laws, and then of course, there's 'non-privacy' laws (consumer protection laws for example) that can still be cited in privacy matters.
Not only is there a tangle of privacy laws at a State and Federal level, but the laws differ depending on the industry as well: you can sue your doctor if they disclose your personal information, but if a website discloses that same information, there's basically nothing you can do. So with such disparate laws, can data privacy legislation in the US actually protect you?
Frankly, even living in Europe, I worry at the amount of information there is out there about me, but I do at least feel I have some protection. But living in the US? Even if I wanted to take legal action against a company I wouldn't know where to start. With this in mind, IDG Connect surveyed legal professionals and marketers, to find out whether they think US data privacy laws are sufficient. So what do the professionals in the know think? And do they find there's a conflict between their professional and personal views?
While both industries came back with the hardly surprising response that US privacy laws are not sufficient, I was fully expecting marketers to feel a conflict between their personal views and professional experiences. After all, an individual must surely want their own personal data protected when they're posting on Facebook in the evening, even if they then have to sell someone else's personal data the next day at work. Now, the results were close, but the majority came out on the side of no conflict. So maybe they're just not that concerned about data privacy laws? Except that 72% of the marketers we surveyed don't think that privacy laws in the States are sufficient…
So just how worried should we be about our data? Is Eric Schmidt right to worry about the "lack of a delete button on the internet"? What is your view on US data privacy legislation?

35 Years Ago: Lynyrd Skynyrd's 'Street Survivors' Album Released
'Street Survivors' was going to be the album that would make Lynyrd Skynyrd even bigger stars. They had already dented the mainstream, reaching the Top 10 with 'Sweet Home Alabama' in 1974, and picking up a sizable following of Southern-rock fans since releasing their 1973 debut album. But 1977's 'Street Survivors' was supposed to catapult them into a whole other realm of rock-star popularity.
Surprise #1 At Top Of Southern Rock Song Poll
The Marshall Tucker Band's 1973 classic "Can't You See" has been named the 'Greatest Southern Rock Song' in a new list by UltimateClassicRock.com. The track -- which has been a mainstay on FM radio upon it's release on the band's self-titled debut album -- has often been mistaken for being an Allman Brothers Band song, actually was never a hit, "peaking" upon release at a disappointing Number 108 on the Billboard singles charts. Coming in second was Lynyrd Skynyrd's 1974 mission statement, "Sweet Home Alabama," with 1975 Outlaws favorite "Green Grass & High Tides" rounding out the Top Three.
Lynyrd Skynyrd Restaurant Declares Bankruptcy
Less than a year after opening for business -- and just two months after a local paper deemed its barbecue the best on the Las Vegas strip -- Lynyrd Skynyrd BBQ & Beer has filed for Chapter 11.
Lynyrd Skynyrd Guitarist Clarifies Comment: Confederate Flag Will Fly 'Every Night' Onstage
Lynyrd Skynyrd guitarist and founding member Gary Rossington has clarified comments he made on a recent CNN interview, and now states that the band will display the Confederate flag at their shows 'every night.'
Lynyrd Skynyrd Anger Some Fans by Denouncing the Confederate Flag
Legendary Southern rockers Lynyrd Skynyrd have angered some fans by announcing that they will stop using the confederate flag, which for much of their career had been featured prominently on their stages, logos, t-shirts and other tour merchandise.
Lynyrd Skynyrd Bring Bikers, Babes and Builders to 'Last of a Dyin' Breed' Video
Lynyrd Skynyrd have a pretty good feel for their audience, so it should come as no surprise that their latest video, 'Last of a Dyin' Breed,' gives the viewer a fair share of bikers, babes, and tips of the hat to their southern roots.

|Texas WR Sanders arrested on DWI charge
|Written by Admin
|Sunday, 07 April 2013 15:54
A Texas A&M University police spokesman said Sanders was arrested after being stopped for an unspecified traffic violation about 2:40 a.m. Saturday. The College Station street runs through campus but isn't on A&M property.
Brazos County records show that Sanders was booked into the county jail just after 5 a.m. and released on $3,000 bond before 8 a.m.
In a statement Sunday, Longhorns coach Mack Brown said UT would monitor the situation and ``do what's best for the university, Kendall and the team.''
Jail records don't show whether Sanders has an attorney.
Sanders will be a sophomore next season. He emerged from spring practice as one of the favorites for Texas' No. 3 receiver spot.

We wandered and shopped for a while, then hopped on a bus back to the ship. Now that was an adventure.

Gerald and Deanne Gitner Family Award for Innovation in Teaching with Technology
The Gerald and Deanne Gitner Family Award for Innovation in Teaching with Technology recognizes the faculty member or team that best exemplifies innovation in teaching by use, development, or adaptation of technology that results in positive learning outcomes for undergraduate students and that is recognized or adopted by faculty colleagues within or outside Boston University. Each year the Provost's Office and the Center for Excellence and Innovation in Teaching (CEIT) will select a Gitner Award recipient, who will receive a $10,000 prize.
2015 Nomination Deadline: Friday, October 3, 2014
Students, alumni, staff and members of the faculty at Boston University are invited to recommend candidates for the 2015 Gitner Award. Nomination letters (about one page) should briefly describe the technology that was used or created, why its use is innovative, in what class(es) it was employed, in what classes it will be used in the future, and what its impact has been beyond the faculty member/team's particular course(s). Finalists will present or demonstrate their innovation at a session open to the university community during the spring semester, date and time to be announced. Please submit letters of nomination to CEIT at email@example.com.
To be eligible, a faculty member must:
- Have held a full-time, continuing appointment on the teaching faculty for not less than six semesters;
- Not be currently under review for promotion or tenure;
- Not be on sabbatical leave or leave of absence during the Spring semester of the current academic year;
- Not be a previous winner of the Gerald and Deanne Gitner Family Award for Innovation in Teaching with Technology.
Lecturers are eligible, as are teams led by at least one eligible faculty member.
Pedagogical innovations must be demonstrated effective in at least one course and it must be clear that they will be used again regularly.

And here he is!
He is precious!!
Congrats Debbi He is precious. Beautiful pick to celebrate your first grandson!
Thank you so much Julia and Alice! We just love him to pieces!
DEBBI!!!!!! Now I know where you've been…..
What a fantastic pick to celebrate and announce precious Max's arrival!!! Love your choices and especially adore his photos! Bob & I are so happy and excited for you & your Bob, Debbi! Congrats!!!
Thanks Lynn! (And Bob!) Yes, I've already been out to LA once, Bob & I are going together next week.
Grandma just held him and kissed his sweet head! And shed some happy tears, of course!
Now I can't wait for my Bob to hold Max!
Congrats on your beautiul Max Grandma and this lovely pick is wonderful!
Thank you very much Dawn!
Debbi! He is perfect!! I bet you are one proud grandma. Congratulations, how exciting!!
Congratulations, Debbie! He is absolutely precious!
Debbi, I am really looking forward to hearing all about your adorable Max and seeing more photos of him after your next trip! Oh, just wait until you see your Bob hold his grandson for the first time!!!
Congratulations, Debbie! He's just precious! Lovely pick, too.
Congratulations! Max is so cute!!!! You must be very proud Great pick to celebrate his arrival into this world!
Congratulations!!! He is sooo adorable Grandma! A beautiful pick to celebrate his arrival!
A great big ooooooohhhhhhh … aaaaaahhhhh with plenty of baby kisses!!! He is utterly utterly beautiful Debbi!!!
Super mega-huge hugs for him and his parents. Bob is going to be in his glory when he gets to hold him. All happiness!
Thank you Jill, Sunny Chick, Debra, Sarah and Green Eyed Lady.
Hope you've sold your house Jill!
Lynn, I am looking forward to the whole family being in the photos! I'll need some frames when I get back…I'll want pictures up everywhere!
Debbi – You and Bob must be beside yourself. Max is just beautiful! Congratulations! Bet you can't wait to get back on the west coast!
Thank you so much Christine and Jeanne…nope, cannot wait!
Hope to post more pictures after our trip!
Debbi thanks for asking aabout the house. We have a sales agreement with a couple. They are getting a V-A loan….which I understand is a million hoops to jump through. The V-A didn't agree with some of the Sales Agreement and said we didn't to change it some. Our attorney advised us to not sign or change anything at this time. It is really frustrating because the couple really want the house….their and attorney agrees with our attorney!! I'm not sure how it is all going to shake out. The frustrating part is we took down the sales sign (as part of our agreement) and we are loosing prime time to try and market the house! Oh what to do??????
Debbi, I can't wait to see a photo of your entire (newly expanded!) family!!!
Say, Hobby Lobby has a great collection of frames and often has them on sale for 50% off……just a thought…..
OOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooo those eyes!!!! What a baby doll!
Debbi, CONGRAGULATIONS on your new grandson Max, he is sooo adorable, what a gorgeous Pick for him, love the beautiful blues, greens and browns, the pics are wonderful, thanks much for sharing!!!
Debbi, I forgot to ask if Max resembles your son or his wife or a combo of both! Also, I am sooooo impressed with all of Max's dark hair! Our daughter Suzanne (now 31) had peach fuzz and then very light hair for the first year plus. The good news is that she now has long, thick hair — she actually has to get it "thinned" when they trim it!!!
We used to joke that we should have paid the doctor more money and got the "deluxe baby model" — the one that came with hair and was already potty-trained!!! ROTFLOL
Thank you Sandra & Joyce for your kind comments on sweet baby Max and the fresh pic!
Jill, I agree…what to do? I believe you have been in the new house for a while and that this sale is ever so important to you & Chris. I hope & pray that it moves through quickly, efficiently and that in the end, everyone is happy.
Lynn, I think Max looks like both son & daughter-in-law so far. My son thinks Max's eyes are Asian but I see a combo of both of them. Max definitely has Alicia's mouth and Robert's nose. He has a lot of hair, which our son did at birth.
Our son made a stunning video of Max's first week….brings us to tears every time we see it…it's just so lovely, set to music. A treasure! It's actually online at a site called vimeo.com
Wouldn't that have been handy to have a birth…a potty trained baby! I was a peachfuzz baby like your Suzanne! And now my hair is SO thick too!
While we don't have a Hobby Lobby here, we do have a Michael's and AC Moore which always have the frames on sale. Would love to do a large frame collage on my empty kitchen wall!
Hi Debbi I found you! Your grandson is just adorable!I know why you can't wait to go visit.
Hi Charlene! Thank you so much for your kind comment about adorable Max!
I can't tell you how much I appreciated all of your talented efforts yesterday! And your time.
I'll be back in to have Pat take a crack at it soon!
Debbi,congras, on this pick being this week favorite!!!
Debbi, your collage idea sounds wonderful!
Congrats on being chosen as one of this week's top picks, Debbi!!!
I was? Wow!
Thank you everyone!
I'll be back soon with a few more pictures to share if everyone indulges me…again, thank you!
A couple more recent photos of our grandson, Max!
I don't know how I missed this wonderful pick, and even more wonderful news, back in July, but in the spirit of "Better-late-than-never", Congratulations on your beautiful baby grandson! He's totally adorable! Thanks so much for sharing his pics with all of us.
I have determined that the reason we are called "Grandparents" is because it's truly "GRAND" to be one!
Deb, thank you so much! I like that! The reason we are called Grandparents is because it's so GRAND! Oh,it truly is!
My son just sent us new pictures a few minutes ago and I they are incredible!
Oh, how I wish we were closer so I could give our little guy grandma kisses!
Just found these more recent photos, Debbi! Oh, Max is going to be a real heartbreaker with the ladies! He is so handsome!!!
He is such a beautiful little boy! Congratuations
Thank you so much Lynn and Donna! Here is the latest picture of Max!
Debbi, what a fantastic picture of Max!!! He is just the cutest baby! Thanks for sharing him with us! I know he'll enjoy his first Christmas!
Thanks Lynn, we think he's the cutest baby ever, but I do think we are a bit biased!
I crocheted that little Santa hat for him. It was so much fun (and easy) to do.
His little Santa hat is too cute! Will you be together on Christmas?
No, not this year. We'll do a Skype call though (or Facetime).
I am going out for a week in January. I can't wait! We saw Max in person in late October; he was 4 1/2 months old then. He'll be 7 1/2 months when I see him late in late January.
How about you? Get to be with Suzann, Dave & the grandgirls for Christmas?
I hope so!
Yes, we're going down to Bloomington (about 2 hrs south of us) tomorrow and staying through Sat. night. We just can't wait! Jenna is now 5, Kaitlyn just turned 3, and Aubrey is 21 mos. — such fun ages, but then, aren't they all?!?!?!

More than a decade ago, I was standing on a ramp at a California airport with an investment banker and his Dassault Falcon 900. Between incessant taps on his Blackberry, he was discussing the airplane and how he used it.

When it comes to power, performance and comfort in a used super-midsize, Bombardier's Challenger 300 stands alone. Not that there hasn't been competition.

Hawker Beechcraft, which filed for bankruptcy protection last May, is now expected to shed its jet lines before emerging with its crown jewels intact: its line of King Air twin turboprops. Some 7,000 remain in service, making it the most ubiquitous business aircraft of all time. Of those 7,000, nearly one third are 200 series.

In the late 1960s–long before speedsters such as the Hawker Beechcraft Premier I, SyberJet SJ30 and Cessna Citation X were a glimmer in some engineer's eye–Dassault gave the world a flying bullet: the Falcon 10.

In 2006, Hawker Beechcraft (HBC) introduced the Premier IA to near-universal acclaim: Here was a composite-fuselage light jet that could be flown single-pilot at speeds up to 450 knots with a near-standup cabin with room for six to seven passengers and a range of nearly 1,500 nautical miles, depending on load.

Its futuristic lines seduce, its rate of climb and speed exhilarate and its operating economics spell savings. The Piaggio Avanti vastly outperforms all other turboprops and noses past some light jets. It's a 400-knot rocket with a near stand-up cabin that has the cross section of a midsize jet. There's comfortable seating for six passengers aft of the cockpit and the airplane has a seats-full range of 980 nautical miles. Fly with two fewer passengers and range increases to 1,300 nautical miles. Considering that the design of this twin-engine turboprop pusher is 30 years old, this is nothing short of amazing. The fact that barely 200 are flying after all these years is perplexing.

Airbus began airline deliveries of its A320 twinjet in 1988. Today, more than 5,000 are in service and another 2,000-plus have been ordered. U.S. carriers flying the model include Delta, US Airways, United and JetBlue. Odds are, you've already been on one. Compared with the original Boeing 737, which was designed in the early 1960s, the A320 has a wider and taller cabin and a slicker wing. It also features digital fly-by-wire controls.

The 1932 Piper Cub sold for $1,300 and embodied everything Bill Piper thought an airplane should be: affordable to own and operate, simple, rugged and fun to fly. You can land it in a short farm field, a small lake or a tiny patch of gravel in the middle of a river. For many a bush pilot today, the Piper Cub remains the ride of choice for these reasons. There's no drama here.

The Bell 407 reminds me of a Mercedes Sprinter van. It's a vehicle with amazing versatility that can be used for virtually any mission: ambulance, cargo, law enforcement, firefighting, military scout and gunship, offshore oil support, utility and, of course, executive transport.

The idea for the Cessna Citation Excel was not new: Combine light jet economics and runway performance with a comfortable, stand-up cabin. For the Excel, Cessna stuck to its time-tested potion of evolutionary development based on simple and robust systems. In other words, it went to the parts bin.
""When I made the film The Invention of Lying, they gave me a private jet for getting back and forth between New York and London. I thought, 'I will never use it' but I ended up using it every weekend. You turn up, right, and the airport is completely empty. I mean, there's just someone at the desk and then the pilot, who says, 'Are you ready to go?' and you say, 'Don't you want to see my passport?' and he goes, 'Oh yeah, I suppose I'd better.'" "
