The Coriolis effect causes turning of air masses, counterclockwise (to the left) for rising air (low pressure) and clockwise (to the right) for descending air (high pressure) in the northern hemisphere, and the opposite directions in the southern hemisphere.....and you thought you were bored before! :0)

A stall in an airplane is not an engine failure. A stall is when the air flowing over the wing is reduced enough so that the amount of lift the wing produces is less than the weight of the aircraft OR if the weight of the aircraft is increased beyond the lift component of the wings (ie, high speed/G-loaded turns or climbs). Stalls can occur at any power setting by adjusting the angle of attack of the wings, blocking the air flow over the wing, or overloading the weight or G load.

During a spin in an aircraft, the wing on the inside of the turn is stalled.

Here is something I learned as a child...

a perfect number is one that all of the factors add up to the number...

sorry if thats stated wrong, let me give an example.

6 - factors are 1, 2, 3, 6
1 + 2 + 3 = 6

28 - factors are 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 28
1 + 2 + 4 + 7 + 14 = 28!

I heard star trek mentioned on here...

Leonard Nimoy's famous salute is a real salute (or whatever it is exactly). He stated on tv a long time ago that he's Jewish, and that was something they used for something. Sorry I don't know the exact details- I was around 13 when I saw the documentary. I might be off on the religion, too, but I know it's an actual salute/ signal/ whatever.

The term "geek" comes from way back in the day... Circuses had these guys biting off the heads of chickens (I guess for entertainment), and therefore those guys are called "geeks". Makes you think of what you're saying the next time you call someone that. Another "thank you" for my childhood experiences of t.v.
