Back in the early 90's I was at my hunt camp and decided to go visit a guy I knew from the firehouse at his hunt camp a few miles away. We were sitting in his camper at the table and I asked why he had a pager(it was sitting on the table). He said it was because his wife was pregnant and due any time. We were drinking beer and talking about some close calls with rattle snakes a short time later when that pager started vibrating on the table. We both about jumped out of our skin. |

https://i.postimg.cc/8cDv0LnC/BBS7Hvc.jpg It has been 10 years since the "Miracle on the Hudson," when US Airways pilot Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger successfully landed his disabled plane on the Hudson River. All 155 on board the flight were rescued before the plane sank. US Airways Flight 1549 was an Airbus A320 which, in the climb-out after takeoff from New York City's LaGuardia Airport on January 15, 2009, struck a flock of Canada geese just northeast of the George Washington Bridge and consequently lost all engine power. Unable to reach any airport, pilots Chesley Sullenberger and Jeffrey Skiles glided the plane to a ditching in the Hudson River off Midtown Manhattan. |

Whirlpool's WLabs is launching a $799 oven this spring that can automatically detect and cook the food you place in it. If you place salmon inside, for example, it sees that you're cooking fish and knows the right temperature and length to cook it. The oven also works with an app that lets you look inside while it's cooking. |
