Olympic Bicycle

Ten years ago, a Chinese gentleman started work on a bicycle in the design of the five Olympic rings. He took his work a bit further and created a unique pedaling mechanism that, as he describes it, is like a running deer, and utilizes both the handlebars and pedals. Clicking the video will open a new window.

AnySoldier supply requests

The next packing party for the Coquina Crossing AnySoldier Program will be in October. Along with about 130 men at Camp Lowell we will also be sponsoring female medics and all the patients at a hospital in Afghanistan. They badly need t-shirts (large), boxer shorts (med & large), body powder, multi-purpose contact solution, batteries and size large PJ bottoms (to fit over leg wounds).  Magazines are still one of the most requested items but please no "Good Housekeeping" types. 
 
A box for donations is still in the craft room or you can call Patty to arrange a pick-up.  Make contribution checks out to FVPP (Florida Veterans Programs & Projects, Inc.) and mark them as being for "AnySoldier".  They can be turned in at the front desk of our clubhouse for the attention of Renie or mail them to ---

The Great Andromeda Galaxy

This thing is big. If it were not so faint, it could easily be seen in the night sky, as it would be about two and half times larger than the full moon.  EPOD
