Thanks for your support,
Nathaniel B

Cool Science Experiments
It's a really cool step-by-step guidebook that shows kids how to build some pretty cool things.
The teacher, Aurora Lipper, is a former NASA rocket scientist who now teaches science to kids.
Anyway, I thought you might be interested.
Plus, it's free.

Fwd: Bagpiper
Bagpiper
Time is like a river. You cannot touch the water twice, because the
flow that has passed will never pass again. Enjoy every moment of
life. As a bagpiper, I play many gigs. Recently I was asked by a
funeral director to play at a graveside service for a homeless man.
He had no family or friends, so the service was to be at a pauper's
cemetery in the Nova Scotia back country.
As I was not familiar with the backwoods, I got lost and, being a
typical man, I didn't stop for directions.
I finally arrived an hour late and saw the funeral guy had evidently
gone and the hearse was nowhere in sight. There were only the diggers
and crew left and they were eating lunch. I felt badly and apologized
to the men for being late.
I went to the side of the grave and looked down and the vault lid was
already in place. I didn't know what else to do, so I started to play.
The workers put down their lunches and began to gather around. I
played out my heart and soul for this man with no family and friends.
I played like I've never played before for this homeless man.
And as I played "Amazing Grace", the workers began to weep. They
wept, I wept, we all wept together. When I finished, I packed up my
bagpipes and started for my car. Though my head was hung low, my
heart was full.
As I opened the door to my car, I heard one of the workers say, "I
never seen anything like that before, and I've been putting in septic
tanks for twenty years."
Apparently, I'm still lost....it's a man thing.
When you have stopped laughing be sure to forward this on to others
who would enjoy a good story.

Busy, busy, busy! You're rushing around so much today, and at such speed, that you'll probably meet yourself coming through a doorway. Right now you need to be as active as possible, both mentally and physically. In fact, you're at your most Geminian today because you need to have your fingers in lots of pies and you'll relish the chance to show how versatile and inventive you can be.

Fwd: Van T Barfoot Died....{Must Read}
Van T. Barfoot died at the age of 92 on 2 March 2013.
Remember the guy who wouldn't take the flag pole down on his Virginia property a while back?
You might remember the news story several months ago about a crotchety old man in Virginia who defied his local Homeowners Association, and refused to take down the flag pole on his property along with the large American flag he flew on it.
Now we learn who that old man was.
On June 15, 1919, Van T. Barfoot was born in Edinburg , Texas . That probably didn't make news back then.
But twenty-five years later, on May 23, 1944, near Carano , Italy , that same Van T. Barfoot, who had in 1940 enlisted in the U.S. Army, set out alone to flank German machine gun positions from which gunfire was raining down on his fellow soldiers.
His advance took him through a minefield but having done so, he proceeded to single-handedly take out three enemy machine gun positions, returning with 17 prisoners of war.
And if that weren't enough for a day's work, he later took on and destroyedthree German tanks sent to retake the machine gun positions.
That probably didn't make much news either, given the scope of the war, but it did earn Van T. Barfoot, who retired as a Colonel after also serving in Korea and Vietnam , a well-deserved Congressional Medal of Honor.
What did make news...
Was his Neighborhood Association's quibble with how the 90-year-old veteran chose to fly the American flag outside his suburban Virginia home.
Seems the HOA rules said it was OK to fly a flag on a house-mounted bracket, but, for decorum, items such as Barfoot's 21-foot flagpole were "unsuitable".
Van Barfoot had been denied a permit for the pole, but erected it anyway and was facing court action unless he agreed to take it down.
Then the HOA story made national TV, and the Neighborhood Association rethought its position and agreed to indulge this aging hero who dwelt among them.
"In the time I have left", he said to the Associated Press, "I plan to continue to fly the American flag without interference."
As well he should.
And if any of his neighbors had taken a notion to contest him further, they might have done well to read his Medal of Honor citation first. Seems it indicates Mr. Van Barfoot wasn't particularly good at backing down.
Van T. Barfoot's Medal of Honor citation:
This 1944 Medal of Honor citation, listed with the National Medal of Honor Society, is for Second Lieutenant Van T. Barfoot, 157th Infantry, 45th Infantry:
If you got this email and didn't pass it on - guess what - you need your butt kicked!
I sent this to you, because I didn't want MY butt kicked! Do the right thing!
WE ONLY LIVE IN THE LAND OF THE FREE BECAUSE OF THE BRAVE! AND, BECAUSE OF OLD MEN LIKE VAN BARFOOT!
