March Air Field Museum |
Inland Empire Aviation Roundtable
February 14, 2013 - 7 p.m.
March Field Air Museum
Spin-offs from Space (Not Just Tang Any More!)
Speaker: Don Blose
 Aerospace engineers and scientists are often asked, "After all the money and time that you guys have spent on missile and space programs, what have been the resulting benefits to the average citizen, or to society in general?" In this presentation, Don Blose will show how many advances in electronics, transportation, structural materials and computer science have been derived from Aerospace Research and Development programs. Technology transfer from these programs has been applied to such diverse areas as medicine, sewage treatment and even football helmets.
The Inland Empire Aviation Roundtable is sponsored
by the March Field Air Museum, and is dedicated to
the local aviation and aerospace community.
The March Field Air Museum is located
at 22550 Van Buren Blvd., east of the intersection

Carbon Monoxide Safety Tips
As temperatures drop, many City residents will use different methods to heat their homes, which, if not careful, can increase the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning. Carbon monoxide (CO) is produced whenever any fuel such as gas, kerosene, oil, wood or charcoal is burned. When appliances that burn these fuels are not properly used or not maintained, the amount of CO produced can be deadly.
Carbon Monoxide is commonly known as the "silent killer" because it is completely odorless, tasteless, and invisible. CO is the leading cause of unintentional poisoning deaths in America. Click here for more information on CO safety.

Assemblymember Medina Celebrates California's Black History
Assemblymember Jose Medina (D-Riverside) will participate in the Black History Parade on February 9th in Riverside at the Riverside Community College campus. Medina represents California's 61st Assembly District, which consists of Riverside, Moreno Valley, and Perris. The theme for this year's observation is At the Crossroads of Freedom and Equality: The Emancipation Proclamation and the 1963 March in Washington D.C.
"During Black History Month, we pay tribute to the history of all African Americans," said Medina. "I am pleased to recognize their achievements and hard work which have contributed to the success of our state and nation."
In the observance of Black History Month we remind young Americans of the excellent role models they can find among the many African Americans we honor this month, including: The first African American big leaguer, Jackie Robinson; Supreme Court Justice, Thurgood Marshall; inventor, George Washington Carver; the first Dr. to perform open heart surgery, Dr. Daniel Hale Williams; and, of course, our 44th President, President Barack Obama. |
