That was a good story by Kevin Sites. Kevin reported the story on Bridges, borders and scenes from Kuwait - on Feb. 28, 2003*
My brother is in the 8th Engineers Battalion.
I would like to hear more. If Kevin Sites will read this or anyone ells for that matter please post headlines so that I will be able to read more.
Thank you,

Hi, Jeff.
Our son is in the 535th Engineer Company, 94th Combat Battalion at Camp Virginia. Like you, we're hanging on every newscast and web article we can find. Good luck to you, your brother, and your family.

And, Kevin -- If you ever meet my son -- tell him "hi" from mom.

  Hi Kelly,
Thank you for your nice thought's and word's.
My family was on the news last week. I have a very big family of four brother's and three sister's.
My mother and sister planed a trip to render some items
for a care packet. It was nice to see my mother in her
10 min. of glory in showbiz. It realy did turn out very nice. My mother has a lot of faith in God and it makes it easier to make it through this trying time.
We also went to Clevelend last week for a rally to support
the troop's. There was an outstanding outcome of 10,000 people that showed up to suport our troop's and are nation.
This my seem like a very trying time to get through, but if you pray and keep a strong faith in God this will be a walk in the park for are troop's.
   The key thing here is to stay strong, keep are color's flying flying high, and are prayer's for are troop's and are nation to return home quickly, with mission acomplished.
God speed!!!

Jeff, how wonderful for your mom! I wish our tv stations would televise rallies IN SUPPORT of our troops -- instead, all we ever see are the protesters and that angers me when I think of the sacrifices the troops are making on our behalf (and on the protesters' behalf!!). It's incredible to think you were present with 10,000 individuals supporting our troops. Thanks for sharing that experience.

I was able to find more information about my son's battalion in Kuwait by going to the 130th Engineer's website and reading articles there. It helped.
Have a good weekend/week,
Kelly

 Kelly,
It realy souldn't surprise you that the media didn't cover the rally to support the troop's. All that we saw on the news was a 30 second clip of "Rally in Clevelend"
That's all thay said was there was only a "1,000 people" that showed up for this rally to suport the troop's.
That was the local news here in Cincinnati Ohio.
Thay forfot to put another zero on the end of 1,000.
It was a four hour dirve each way to Clevlend, and it was very cold there on the "River Walk". My ant and uncl's went up with us to. We couldn't go in to the restaurant's on the "River Walk" due to, too many people there.
It's a small price to pay, compared to what are troop's are offering up for us. It only takes one person to get the ball rolling to start a rally.
My mother is tring to start one here for Cincinnati.
Knowing my mother she will have a bigger turn out than Clevlend. Just joking, but it will be nice for Cincinnati.
Chat with you later,

Alert for all travellers to North American Continent:

Racially intolerant white canadian cops and security and their henchmen claim to be despots; following parasitically in the footsteps of their american counterparts, and wilfully engage in their racial profiling of non-whites, in racial harassment of non-whites, and in racially dehumanizing attempts to racially harass non-whites through intimidating physically, mentally, and spiritually; portraying their racial hatred of non-whites through causing wilfull and dehumanizing disturbance to non-whites through using illegal wall-see-through technologies and audio-bugs on non-whites' homes; through listening and watching through the walls of non-whites' rented and owned homes, and through their internet and private telephones. The perpetuators of these evil deeds do this from their cars using illegal equipment slyly given to them by the unworthy cops, and then accelerating their cars loudly and intimidatingly near non-whites' homes and driving intimidatingly in presence of non-whites on streets, making threatening u-turns, driving intimidatingly right up and over sidewalks when a non-white is on the sidewalk, and throwing their ugly bullying weight around, in their shameless acts of cowardice. It is all done slyly, supposedly smartly, however, they cannot fool all the people all the time. The cops also participate themselves to wail their sirens abusively everytime non-whites move and talk inside their rented and owned homes in daily routine living, in addition to having their henchmen in cars commit these ugly harassing racially profiling deeds at all times day and night. Most of these ugly acts of dehumanizing racial profiling depict the cowardice of the doers of these deeds in the real sense, and are done at the behind the scenes insistence of the racially intolerant white cops through their frontline stooges. However, without physical evidence, the white cops, security, socieities, and their henchmen are laughing sinisterly at their heinous deeds and the legal system seems to support this evil through its inability to take action without physical evidence. Their racial profiling penetrates public transport systems, shops and stores to do all they can to make the non-whites feel unwelcome in their dehumanizing acts of racial profiling against non-whites and those who don't conform to their nonsense. The white cops, security, and white communities use their henchmen who do just as they are told and from behind the safety cushion of their oil-guzzling, pollution creating, often dark-glassed vehicles to intimidate and harass non-whites in obnoxious racial profiling that reflects the immoral, despotic, and cowardly behaviour of racially intolerant white cops, security, communities and their dumb henchmen who do just as they are told, fuelled as they are in their racial frenzy, thanks to the racially manipulative corporate controlled media.

For more information, visit:

Volunteers are welcome to circulate this information to all they know to put an end to this abuse and violations of human rights committed by immorally misbehaved white cops, security, white communities, public transports, shops, stores, etc, and their dumb henchmen who do just as they are told in their racial frenzy.

Save this information on your computers before any cowards remove it from the websites.

Racism is immoral and dehumanizing behaviour that reflects the "incapable to perform humanely" quality of those who are racist and are being watched from God's court above in ways they cannot be expected to be capable to perceive yet.

It's a shame when obnoxious stench of racism comes from people in so called rich countries. It's even more of a shame when words are twisted by media to influence young minds with lies. It's even more of a shame when so called authorities perpetuate racism and behave racistly and enforce racist policies and behaviour through intimidating means amidst outer sweet and polite talks. Racism seems to be prominent among so called white people in rich countries who cannot bear non-whites from other countries of origin. Planet Earth belongs to people of Earth. Highly educated people of high intellectual calibres, rich bosses and CEOs, etc, of rich countries are a blotch on humanity and their material levels when they haven't yet evolved to basic human concepts of all humans have red blood irrespective of race.

Racism stems from social attitudes that are perpetuated by racist societies, the media, the authoritarians, and the peers. It's time to say, shame on all those who perpetuate racism and racist attitudes.

Thank you.

Jeff, how did things turn out for your brother and your family?

My son ended up doing two one-year tours to Iraq -- 2003 and 2005. His son was nine days old when James deployed the second time. He missed that little boy's first year, but now they are all together. After the second tour, James opted not to re-enlist, ending six years in the U.S. Army. He is now living state-side with his wife and two children...happy to be home every night.

Hope things are well for your family.
Kelly

Laptop batteries differ from other types of batteries in that they provide a relatively short service life and are expensive to replace. In this article we look at the reasons why these batteries do not last and examine the high replacement cost. We also look into the possibilities of repairing them. <br />
Most of today's laptop computers are powered with Lithium-ion batteries.</p>
<p>Under good conditions, Lithium?ion provides 300 to 500 discharge/charge cycles or 2 to 3 years of service from the time the battery leaves the production line. The capacity loss occurs through increased internal resistance caused by cell oxidation. Eventually the resistance reaches a point where the battery can no longer deliver the needed energy although the energy may still be present in the battery. There are no remedies to restore the capacity when worn out. Heating the battery will momentarily improve the performance.

<p>One of the most remarkable and novel discoveries in the last 400 years has been electricity. </p>
<p>You may ask, “Has electricity been around that long?”
  
  The answer is yes, and perhaps much longer. But the practical use of electricity has only been at our disposal since the mid-to late 1800s, and in a limited way at first. At the world exposition in Paris in 1900, for example,
one of the main attractions was an electrically lit bridge over the river Seine.
  
  The earliest method of generating electricity occurred by creating a static charge. In 1660, Otto von Guericke constructed the first electrical machine that consisted of a large sulphur globe which, when rubbed and turned,</p>
<p> attracted feathers and small pieces of paper. Guericke was able to prove that the sparks generated were truly electrical.
