This is the place where we post late breaking news that may be of interest to our readers. We will also sometimes ask a question that will be answered later in the newsletter. This month, the question is What is the average life of a democratic form of government? |
What's new this month? - In late December 2007, we started the "My Radio Can Beat Up Your Radio!" campaign especially addressed to fill the needs of the manufacturing industry. We have made some fairly significant conversions with companies like Ethan Allen, Johnson Controls, and others who took our challenge and made the switch to something better. This is a really unusual program that guarantees a better radio at lesser cost. Check it out at www.freeradios.us. Digital news updates - This month we are offering the opportunity for our readers to try a digital radio on us. No gimmicks, no fine print, no gotchas - just a genuine offer to let you try a digital radio or two on your own system and compare the difference in what you are now using and the digital counterpart. Your choice of 6.25 FDMA (ICOM), TDMA (Motorola MotoTRBO), P25 (ICOM, Midland or Motorola Additional information is available on the Internet at www.info4u.us/Just_the_facts.pdf. A special message for members of the construction industry - We have found many similarities in the communications needs for construction and public safety users. For an overview of some products that are especially well suited for construction use, please visit www.topchoiceradios.com. |
For curious minds only In this section of our newsletter, we usually try to include something beautiful, something humorous, something spiritual, and something serious, not necessarily in that order. This month, we will start with something beautiful. Check out http://www.trdaniel.com/Chiquitita/index%20a.htm. Give it time to load. It's a fairly large PowerPoint file. In
the second month of the New Year, many of us reflect back on things we would have done differently in the past
year if we had known then what we know now. Others make vows to do better
in the New Year (most of which have been broken by now) and still
others make predictions. It is this latter category that we find
interesting. The folks at the
Yorktown Historical Society have shared with us the predictions
published in the 1900 edition of the Ladies Home Journal for the year
2000. I think you will be surprised to find how incredibly accurate
they were! Check it out at http://www.yorktownhistory.org/homepages/1900_predictions.htm.

Here's something helpful to know. Most of us over the age of 40 that have spent a good part of our life in the sun may have already experienced a common form of skin cancer known as basal cell carcinoma. Typically we have these cancers removed by freezing or in some cases surgery. Physicians have known since 1971 that this type cancer responds remarkably well to daily applications or ordinary Vitamin C! Go to www.theoneclickgroup.co.uk/news.php?start=1680&end=1700&view=yes&id=1912#newspost for additional information. If you don't want to make up your own topical dressing, you can generally find a good topical serum at the cosmetic counter of your local drug store, or you can order on line by doing a search for Vitamin C serums. Our
courts have ruled that citizens of the United States of America do not
have the right to honor our Creator in public schools nor
can we display the symbols of our Christian heritage in government buildings
or on public property. Having said that, we suspect that few would disagree that the
finest leaders in world pass through the portals of the United States Military
Academy, better known as West Point.
Just
thought you might want to see a copy of the West Point Cadets prayer
that has been learned, spoken, and mostly executed by every West Point
attendee since it's inception TO THIS DAY! You may be surprised at what
you find at http://www.usma.edu/chaplain/cadetprayer.htm.
May it ever be......
