Flying Kites Into The Wind

Every year Cabo San Lucas, Baja California, Mexico hosts a Kite Festival! During the fiesta the sky is filled with the bright colors and swooping wings of kites of all shapes and sizes. Kite flying enthusiasts from all over come to display their colorful flyers.

If you haven not flown a kite since you were a kid, you will be amazed at how far kites have come. Fom their inspired designs to how easily they take to the skies, today's high fliers are a far cry from the kites of yore. You just run down the beach, and your kite magically lifts up and catches the wind. And it stays up, floating merrily on the breeze until you have had enough.

Flying a kite is great fun. It's also very relaxing ... a great option for a free summer activity that you never grow out of.

Very Large Array Radio Telescopes

Because radio waves are so large - about 100,000 times longer than visible light waves - astronomers need colossal telescopes to collect them. Building a single telescope large enough is impossible, so radio astronomers build arrays. Arrays are huge series of telescopes that work together as one telescope.

The Very Large Array, or VLA, is such a telescope. It is one of the world's premier astronomical radio observatories, and consists of 27 radio antennas in a Y-shaped configuration on the Plains of San Agustin fifty miles west of Socorro, New Mexico. The VLA is a very unique place to visit. As you approach the valley, cellular service becomes non-existent. The isolated desert location - specifically chosen to minimize radio frequency interference - is perfect for reflecting on the mysteries of the universe.

The Very Large Array, or V.L.A., is the most powerful radio telescope in the world. The resolution of the VLA is altered by changing the positions of the dishes. The VLA's maximum angular resolution is better than a tenth of an arc second, comparable to that of the Hubble Space Telescope at optical wavelengths.

Texas Longhorn

Longhorn cattle have been a part of the history of North America since 1493 when Spanish settlers accompanying Christopher Columbus brought the first few long-horned Iberian cattle with them to the Antilles Islands (Puerto Rico, Cuba, Jamaica, and Hispaniola).

Overall, it can be said, then, that between 1493 and the mid-19th century, feral longhorns flourished in the Americas. During that three hundred fifty year period, they used principles of natural selection to develop hardiness, disease resistance, ease of calving, strong mothering instincts, and other traits vital to their survival.

In 1964, the first registry was established to perpetuate breeding records and confirm the purity of blood lines for breeders of Texas Longhorn cattle. Since that time, the numbers of registered Texas Longhorn cattle has soared, and by the late 1990s, it had exceeded 250,000. Breeders now exist in all 50 states as well as Canada, Mexico and many other countries.
