    WIRELESS TELEPHONE AT WHITE HOUSE
    November 21, 1919 - White House, U.S.A.

    President Wilson used a radio telephone set up on the south portico of the White House to direct the maneuvers of a dozen army airplanes flying over the Potomac river several miles away. His telephoned directions went direct to the flight commander in the air. The instrument was similar to those used by American aviators in France in the latter part of World War I. Col. C. C. Culver actively developed the equipment. He began the project in Aug 1910. No new invention was needed, only adaptation and adjustment of existing techniques. By Aug 1916, he was able to send a radio telegraph signal from a plane. Enlisting expert help from the telephone companies, by Oct 1917, voice messages could be send between a plane and the ground. The system was put into service for military wartime use.

    EDISON'S PHONOGRAPH
    November 21, 1877 - New York City, U.S.A.

    Thomas Edison announced his invention of his "talking machine" - the tin-foil cylinder recorder that preceeded the phonograph. He appears to have envisioned it as a business dictation machine. In Sep 1877, he wrote that its purpose was "to record automatically the speech of a very rapid speaker upon paper; from which he reproduces the same Speech immediately or years afterwards preserving the characteristics of the speakers voice so that persons familiar with it would at once recognize it." The indented tin foil, however, would survive only a few playings. By the first public showing of a phonograph, which took place in New York City in early Feb 1878, its practical applications had not yet been realized.

    about Eyesight Myth and Fact

    Myth: Staring at a computer screen all day is harmful to the eyes. Fact: Spending the day staring at a screen can tire or strain your eyes, but it will not hurt them.

Save Your Relationship: Steps You Should Adopt To Have A Successful Relationship.

A relationship is similar to a mirror, a simple crack will just break it off. It needs to be handled with care.

But it is always possible to save your relationship, even if it is falling apart. Obviously, if you do nothing about it, then there is no magic formula to have a successful relationship.

If you want to save your relationship, start by thinking about all the good moments that you have spent together. This is the best way to motivate yourself to save the relationship. Start by picking up the problems, because it is hard to fix a relationship without knowing what?s wrong. Hence it is better to note down all the reasons why you think you are facing so much troubles. Together with your partner, you should talk about these issues and look for solutions. Never leave a problem unsolved, it'll worsen with time, better solve it at once.

p>Another important thing, while saving your relationship is to listen to your lover. Be a good listener if you want a successful relationship. Your views, opinions and thoughts should be shared in order to avoid conflicts and arguments as well. After solving all the problems between both of you, it is vital to apologize for hurting the feelings of your partner and also promise that these troubles won?t happen again. And finally offer yourself a nice holiday somewhere, where you?ll be alone and away from the world to discover each other once again.

Misunderstandings and conflicts cannot ruin your relationship. What?s important is to identify the problems at the right time and look for solutions. To keep your relationship working, you need to have healthy and truthful communication to maintain trust.
