World War II Names Still In Our Vocabulary – Part Three – The Blitz

World War II Names Still In Our Vocabulary – Part Three – The Blitz

This is the third of a series of articles that document some of the names, places, catch words, and other items that are now lodged permanently in our vocabulary, History was made some 68 years ago. We dare not forget.


From July to February, the name of the game is football. It starts with the exhibition season and ends with the Super Bowl extravaganza. Out of World War II has come a term about which which we all know. It is called The Blitz.


The blitz is a team defensive move in which the defense sends more players than the offense can block. When the defense is running the blitz, it sends linebackers or even defensive safeties in order to try to tackle the quarterback or disrupt his pass drop. If it works, the quarterback is sacked behind the line of scrimmage for a huge loss. If the quarterback can “read” the defensive signals and pick up the blitz, it means a touchdown. The defensive team is risking its pass defense in order to get to the quarterback. One commentator picked up a verse from the Bible. You either live by the blitz or else die by the blitz.


By nature, blitzes are risky endeavors for the defense. Since the defense is taking away coverage defenders to rush the QB, there necessarily are holes in pass coverage. The defense does not and cannot cover all offensive players, but rather through the blitz, is proactively involved in rattling the QB, sacking the QB, disrupting QB timing, or forcing him to make an error such as an interception or fumble.


The blitz gets its name from the Blitzkrieg, a German strategy of the “Lightning War” during World War II. In World War One, most of the battles were fought in trenches. Both sides fortified their trenches heavily, and ended up taking heavy casualties while gaining little ground. Ironically after World War One, the British devised a new strategy. The strategy was first put forward by Colonel John Fuller, the chief of staff of the British Tank Corps. Fuller was disappointed with the way tanks were used during the First World War and afterwards produced Plan 1919. This included a call for long-range mass tank attacks with strong air, motorized infantry, and artillery support. These ideas were developed in more detail in his books, Reformation of War (1923) and Foundation of the Science of War (1926).


The British Army ignored Fuller’s ideas. However, leaders of the rebuilding German Army studied Fuller’s ideas in detail. They asked the government to commission the production of new tanks that would enable them to use Blitzkrieg tactics in any future conflicts The Germans called the Fuller plan Blitzkreig or Lightning War.


After Adolf Hitler obtained power in 1933, the German government was open about its tank production. In the spring of 1934 the German Army began developing the Panzer tank. Over the next few years the Panzer I, Panzer II, Panzer III and Panzer IV were produced.

During the invasion of Poland in September, 1939, it became clear that the outstanding performer was the Panzer IV as it had the perfect combination of speed, agility, firepower and reliability. Over the next few years it became the backbone of Blitzkrieg and over 9,000 of these tanks were produced.


The success of the Blitzkreig was overwhelming. The Germans finished off Poland in six weeks. It was now France’s turn. On May 10, the blitzkrieg rolled through the Ardennes. In three weeks, the British had to evacuate their entire army at Dunquerque. By mid-June, France had surrendered. The Germans held a victory parade through the Arc De Triumph, something that the French still remember to this day in 2007.


Sir Winston Churchill made a speech. “The Battle of France is over. The Battle of Britain has begun.” The German aerial attacks over England would now be simply called, “The Blitz.” Beginning in August 1940, German bombers visited England every day. By September, the Blitz had failed. The Royal Air Force (RAF) proved it could win over the Luftwaffe.

The Blitz went into night attacks. From September until June 1941, the Luftwaffe visited London from sundown to sunup with incendiary bombs and high explosive weapons. By July 1941, the Blitz had ended. The Luftwaffe was needed to go fight the Soviets. It would now be up to the Soviets to stop the Blitzkreig. However, the Blitz did return to England when the momentum of World War II was on the side of the Allies. It came in the form of the buzz bomb.


In June 1944 the first flying bombs fell on London. They were usually called ‘buzz-bombs’ or ‘doodle-bugs’. At first only one or two fell, but soon it became obvious that a regular bombardment was under way.

The most noticeable aspect of the doodlebugs was their sound, which was quite unlike any ordinary plane. It had a strange tearing and rasping sound, more like a two-stroke motor-cycle.. South London was on their regular flight path, and many of them fell nearby, causing damage and loss of life.


The RAF brought the first jet fighters into operation to try to catch them as they were much faster than piston-engined fighters. They would fly alongside them and flip their wing to spill them harmlessly into the open fields below. Some of them failed to explode and one was put on display at a store in Canterbury.


There is no doubt that these things did a great deal of damage in London within the space of a few weeks. The allied armies were advancing on the launching sites in Northern France and Belgium, and there was concern that they would not get there in time to prevent more damage and loss of life.


Soon, however, the buzz bombs were replaced by the far more frightening V2 weapons. These were rockets proper, much larger and more destructive which gave no notice at all of their arrival. They continued to fall on London at intervals during the last winter of the war, 1944-45. The V-2 ballistic missile (known to its designers as the A4) was the world’s first operational liquid fuel rocket. It represented an enormous quantum leap in technology, financed by Nazi Germany in a huge development program that cost at least $ 2 billion in 1944 dollars. Despite the scale of this effort, the inaccurate missile did not change the course of the war and proved to be an enormous waste of resources.


After the war, personnel and technology from the V-2 program formed the starting point for post-war rocketry development in America, Russia, and France. The Allies seized tons of documents, hundreds of experts, and dozens of V-2 missiles. Emerging from World War II was Dr. Wernher Von Braun


Before the Allied capture of the V-2 rocket complex, Dr. von Braun engineered the surrender of 500 of his top rocket scientists, along with plans and test vehicles, to the Americans. For fifteen years after World War II, Dr. von Braun would work with the United States army in the development of ballistic missiles. As part of a military operation called Project Paperclip, he and his “rocket team” were scooped up from defeated Germany and sent to America where they were installed at Fort Bliss, Texas. There they worked on rockets for the United States army, launching them at White Sands Proving Ground, New Mexico. In 1950 von Braun’s team moved to the Redstone Arsenal near Huntsville, Alabama, where they built the Army’s Jupiter ballistic missile.


In 1960, his rocket development center transferred from the army to the newly established NASA and received a mandate to build the giant Saturn rockets. Accordingly, von Braun became director of NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center and the chief architect of the Saturn V launch vehicle, the superbooster that would propel Americans to the Moon.


Dr. Von Braun also became one of the most prominent spokesmen of space exploration in the United States during the 1950s. In 1970, NASA leadership asked von Braun to move to Washington, DC, to head up the strategic planning effort for the agency. He left his home in Huntsville, Alabama, but after about two years he decided to retire from NASA and to go to work for Fairchild Industries of Germantown, Maryland. He died in Alexandria, Virginia, on 16 June 1977.


And so, the Blitz came peacefully to an end. It is probable that while living in the DC Metro Area, Dr. Von Braun could have watched the Dallas Cowboys run the blitz against the Washington Redskins. Quarterbacks such as Jurgensen, Bradshaw, Namath, Elway, and Manning will know the Blitz in the same way as we all do, every Sunday. Let it stay that way, forever more.

Electronic Cigarettes Reviews – Three Strategies For How to Stop Smoking For Good

Electronic Cigarettes Reviews – Three Strategies For How to Stop Smoking For Good

Electronic Cigarettes Reviews

Want to quit smoking? Cigarettes are terrible for your health, yet they’re hard to let go of. Yet read on for some strategies and tools that can help you quit smoking for good.

First of all, if want to stop smoking cigarettes, give yourself a big pat on the back. This is probably the single most important improvement you can make to achieve better health.

I won’t bore you with a list of reasons why you should stop smoking. Chances are you’re all too familiar with them — and have tried numerous times before, but without success.

Why would this year be different?

Let me give you a few important strategies that can really help you quit smoking and stay quit too:

1) You take the task of quitting smoking seriously

What do I mean by that? Exactly what it says. Just because the non-smokers around you don’t think it’s a big deal doesn’t mean they’re right. In fact, kicking the smoking habit may be the most difficult thing you’ll ever do.

Smoking feeds your pleasure circuits in ways few other things do. And the withdrawal symptoms can be hellish. In fact, smoking is more addictive than heroin.

And that doesn’t even get to the social aspects of smoking — the fact that it may be pleasurable, that it’s part of your routine, that you may have built a social life around those cigarette breaks you take throughout the day, and so on. In fact, you may be worried that without smoking you won’t get those breaks anymore.

So the first step should be to acknowledge the enormity of what you’re about to undertake — and promise yourself to be gentle with yourself. AND to give yourself every tool you can to help you succeed. Electronic Cigarettes Reviews

2) Give yourself tools

I stopped smoking myself — many years ago. It was very hard. I stopped many times before I was able to make it stick.

One thing that finally helped me do it was Nicorette chewing gum. That allowed me to separate the pleasurable part of smoking and the social aspects from the physically addictive part.

I was able to deal with those first, while still getting my nicotine fix. But I hated the gum, so eventually, I relied on it less and less.

I also acknowledged that this would be hard. I had proof of it too — all those many attempts that led to a re-start of smoking.

And if there’s a special reason — special to you — that might motivate you to stick with it this time around, by all means, use it. Maybe you’d like to avoid wrinkles, or impotence, or the fact that each time you try to stop — unsuccessfully — you put on another 5 pounds. Electronic Cigarettes Reviews

Three signs anti-vibration motor must be replaced

Three samples cons engine vibration mounts need replacement

If you own a boat building, car or vehicle, engine performance based on more than the engine itself. The engines are to give the movement the most effective way to do it, the better your vehicle runs. Anti-vibration function properly are essential to fuel efficiency, safety and proper handling. With years of experience in vibration technology support, including support for sea, AV products, Inc. has learned that a number of attractions to note that the vibrations may indicate that your vehicle engine supports must be replaced. Confidence not only in a maintenance program for static, because the actual load of your vehicle is what really determines if you need replacements.

Visual signs of engine wear

Monte as they age, the metal components of an anti-vibration mounting system will be a little different, but beware corrosion and deformations that change the shape of the room. They will further to other parts, including rubber components. With regard to the Assemblies of vibration rubber for monitoring cracks, chipping and other signs of wear that can change the way motor loads in the bush. A machine assembly according to its proper and peculiar to the function. Without both, the vibration is reflected in the set is not correctly cancel the vibrations from the engine.

Finally, it is important to consider the distortions that could affect the mountain range of motion. Porter can create a narrower range than normal due to a curved section or partially blocked, or too much or a beach because of progressive wear. Too wide movement allows foreign objects jams and affect the balance between machine mounts, which must carry a load in a harmonious way to work properly.

The sounds that signal its anti vibration supports replacement of a

One of the biggest indicators of the need to replace the motor mounts is excessive noise from engine, especially when the engine is idling. Some of the noise has increased vibrations. Do not dissipate, so that travel through the body of the vehicle. The other part is because the engine of control on its own pulse vibration construction must work harder to achieve the desired level of performance. This shows that a good set of engine mounts not only make your vehicle safer, while retaining its effectiveness.

If the progress of these noises occasionally sounds sharp, metallic sound, you can not ask any longer. This indicates that without damping vibrations, the engine is truly amazing that any other vehicle. Sometimes, even it means your engine has published an important element. In such situations, are unlikely -. Open it and take a look

performance indicators

One of the most common signs that your vehicle vibrations need to replace that wobbles or moves as moves . Another sign is that the vehicle becomes more difficult to manage during periods of continuous operation – a time when the vibrations are accumulated in the engine and are not properly cleared by their forests. These events underscore the need to address the problem immediately, because of management problems of security issues – and it always pays to be sure

The Lake Oswego Three Top Advantages

Unlike many American cities, Portland has distinct neighborhoods, each with a unique vibe.   The Hawthorne is eclectic and lighthearted.   North Portland has become the stomping grounds for funky artists.   And the Pearl is sophisticated and posh.   The emerald of the Southwest, Lake Oswego, has its own distinct characteristics.   Located eight miles south of Portland, Lake Oswego, or “L. O. ,” is more than just a bedroom community for commuters.   Here’s what makes Lake Oswego special, and why its residents love their city so ardently. 1. Neighborhood SafetyLake Oswego is clean, family-friendly, and safe.   Resident John Olsson is a characteristic LO resident.   He moved to Lake Oswego from northwest Portland when he became a father because he wanted his son to grow up in a safe neighborhood.   “I’ve had no crime in eleven years,” he brags.   Like many of his neighbors, Olsson loves that he doesn’t have to worry about his house being broken into or being the victim of petty crime. State crime statistics support Olsson’s impression.   In 2005, the state of Oregon reported only 937 property crime offenses in Lake Oswego, compared to 50,850 in Portland.   Moreover, Portland had fifty times as many burglary arrests as Lake Oswego.   Yet Lake Oswego’s proximity to downtown and public transit accessibility allows its residents to enjoy Portland’s best cultural offerings.  2. Educational ExcellenceOlsson should know about what makes schools great; after all, he’s the director of Huntington Learning Center in Lake Oswego.   “Our schools are top notch,” he testifies. “They have a culture of excellence, and a real sense of community. “   Indeed, the Oregon Department of Education rates all 13 of Lake Oswego’s schools as exceptional.   At the elementary level, 95% of Lake Oswego’s students meet or exceed state standards, perhaps because each elementary school has reading and math specialists on staff.   Unlike much of the rest of the country, elementary students still enjoy music and physical education classes.  The district’s statistics and awards at the high school level are even more impressive.   Newsweek ranked Lake Oswego High School in the top 1,300 public schools in the nation.   Over 90% of the graduates from Lake Oswego’s two public high schools attend college.   High SAT scores make them competitive college applicants:  86% of LO students took the SAT in 2005.   Their average score was 1690, over 100 points higher than the national average. All of this data points to one simple fact – Lake Oswego public schools are so excellent, they are often compared to Portland’s best private schools.   If you’re looking for a great public education for your children, Lake Oswego is an excellent place to live. 3. Community Events and Active Lifestyle AmenitiesThe homes in Lake Oswego tend to be large, expansive residences with beautiful views and high property values. They are also located in one of the most active communities in the area. Lake Oswego is a great place to be a sports enthusiast.   LO’s golfers flock to the municipal course, which offers views of both Mt. Adams and Mt. St. Helens.   Mountain bikers love the city’s miles of bike paths winding through lush forests.  Lake Oswego itself offers a wonderful trail for walkers and joggers. The area’s 490 acres of clear open space and three natural areas are perfect for nature lovers.   Add seasonal events such as the extensive farmer’s market and the annual Festival for the Arts, and it’s tough to be bored in Lake Oswego. So, if you’re looking for a well-groomed, safe community with excellent schools and plenty of fun activities, Lake Oswego may be the perfect neighborhood for you. – Ben Anton, 2008

Three Signs Your Anti Vibration Engine Mounts Need Replacing

If you are a boat owner of a car or vehicle construction, engine power is more than the engine itself. Engines exist to transmit the motion, which is a more efficient way they do, the better your vehicle runs. The proper functioning of the vibration is essential for safety, fuel efficiency and proper management. With years of experience in the anti-vibration mount technology, such as summer camps for marine navigation, AV Products, Inc. has learned, we are seeing a number of strong indications that the engine has to specify their vehicle vibration mounts replaced. Not only confidence in a static maintenance plan, because his vehicle to the actual workload is what really determines whether you need a replacement. The visible signs of aging Wear engine mount, install the metal parts of an anti-vibration system will look a little different, but should take into account corrosion and turns that change the part of the form. They are taking extra pass to other components, including all rubber components. When it comes to anti-vibration rubber Watch for cracks, flaking and other signs of wear, which could change the way that the load mounted on the engine. A motor support is based on proper form and function strange. Without both, the vibrations are reflected in the headline to adequately increase the vibrations emanating from the engine. Finally, very important note for any deformation, the change will expand the amount of movement. The wear can lead to lower normal range jammed by a curved section or part, or creating too much or range by gradual erosion. Too much freedom of movement permits foreign congestion and harms the balance between the feet of the machine, you must have a balanced load to function properly. Sounds your vibration signal in the main indicators ReplacingOne need your engine bearings must be replaced excessive engine noise, especially when the engine is idling. Part of the noise comes from excessive vibration. You do not know what to do to one side, have gone out the body. The other part comes from the fact that the engine has more fights its own dynamics of vibration, built to work harder to achieve the desired performance. This shows that we are a good engine just to maintain the safety car is assembled, but their efficacy. If this sounds like progress occasional shrill, ringing, it can not be deterred from services. This suggests that without vibration, the engine is really surprising other vehicle. Sometimes it also means your engine has released a critical component. In situations like this, do not take chances – to open it and take a look. IndicatorsOne performance of the common signs that your vehicle the vibration damper must be replaced is that the shift or wobble when you move. Another sign that the vehicle to handle increasingly difficult for periods of continuous operation – is the time in which the oscillations build that way, if not properly motors and their mounts. These facts point to the need to address the problem immediately, due to problems with the handling of security issues – and it pays to be always safe.
