George will discuss his experiences evaluating (previously) highly classified (If I told you then, I'd have to kill you. Ha, ha) technology for Special Operations during the 1990's. Focus will be on 'exotic' weapons (DEW, HPM, AC-130 special rounds) and high tech sensors (Gen III NVG). 

"Calories," is a word our physiology doesn't actually understand. We will discuss how the body's conversion of food into energy goes awry from muscle disuse leading to the most commonly seen chronic illnesses as well as the connection to increased susceptibility to Covid complications.

Is there scientific evidence supporting strength training for diabetes (I linked to the American Diabetes Assn Position statement):

Time is the finite “Time of Existence.” It is relative to any circumstance. It can be real or perceived. 

George will discuss his experiences evaluating highly classified (If I tell you, I have to kill you. Ha, ha) technology for Special Operations during the 1990's. Focus will be on stealth technology (primer, F-117, Spec Ops applications) but 'exotic' weapons and high tech sensors can be discussed if time permits (or at another meeting) 

Patrick Walsh, a Covanta  representative, will explain  what happens to our solid waste as it is cleanly converted to energy 

Albert will discuss methods and materials to cool structures without adversely affecting  greenhouse gas emissions and global warming 

Gregg described the mass effect of the Higgs field on particles and discuss if that is where we and everything get our mass. 

We all dig down and do our homework, investigating a diagnosis that we were not expecting..  either our own or that of a loved one.  This presentation is a high-level summary of my experience facing a myriad of decisions that followed receipt of a simple standard mammogram report..

A Science Topics Presentation

If you thought last month's presentation about the Universe was Big, what until you see Grahams Number and TREE(3).  Numbers so big that writing them down would not fit in the Universe, even in microscopic font

Dr. Ellis is an international bee expert who enjoys presenting his work and describes how Florida has mobile bee hives that move around the country to pollinate crops.

Gregg Discusses the Ancient Greek Theories of the Universe and the tools that the Greeks used to predict  Cosmological events

The Villages’ Ground-Hog day tornado, on the morning of Feb 2nd, damaged 1,300 Villages homes. It is the 2nd worst tornado outbreak in Florida’s history, and it is the main focus of this talk.
